We also use various registered and unregistered trademarks, and we believe these trademarks are significant in the marketing of most of our products. However, we believe the successful manufacture and sale of our products generally depends more upon our technological, manufacturing and marketing skills.

We make available free of charge (other than an investor's own Internet access charges) through our Internet website our Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, and amendments to those reports, as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish such material to, the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, we have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our officers, directors and employeesassociates which satisfies the requirements of the New York Stock Exchange regarding a “code of business conduct.” We have also adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines addressing the subjects required by the New York Stock Exchange. In September 2019, we produced our updated Sustainability Report. We make copies of the foregoing, as well as the charters of our Board committees, available free of charge on our website. We intend to satisfy the disclosure requirements under Item 5.05 of Form 8-K regarding amendments to, or waivers from, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by posting such information on our web site at the address stated above. We are not including the information contained on or available through our website as a part of, or incorporating such information by reference into, this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider each of the risks described below, together with all of the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, before making an investment decision with respect to our securities. If any of the following risks develop into actual events, our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected and you may lose all or part of your investment.
We expect to incur costs and charges as a result of restructuring activities such as facilities and operations consolidations and workforce reductions that we expect will reduce on-going costs, and those restructuring activities also may be disruptive to our business and may not result in anticipated cost savings.
We have been consolidating facilities and operations in an effort to make our business more efficient and expect to continue to review our overall manufacturing footprint. We have incurred, and expect in the future to incur, additional costs and restructuring charges in connection with such consolidations, workforce reductions and other cost reduction measures that have adversely affected and, to the extent incurred in the future would adversely affect, our future earnings and cash flows. Furthermore, such actions may be disruptive to our business. This may result in production inefficiencies, product quality issues, late product deliveries or lost orders as we begin production at consolidated facilities, which would adversely impact our sales levels, operating results and operating margins. In addition, we may not realize the cost savings that we expect to realize as a result of such actions.
As a result of the increase in our debt levels and debt service obligations in connection with our acquisition of the Power Transmission Solutions business, we may have less cash flow available for our business operations, we could become increasingly vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry conditions and interest rate trends, and our ability to obtain future financing may be limited.
At the beginning of fiscal 2015, we significantly increased our overall debt levels in connection with financing the acquisition of PTS. As of December 30, 2017, we had $1.1 billion in aggregate debt outstanding under our various financing arrangements, $139.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and $475.0 million in available borrowings under our current revolving credit facility. Our ability to make required payments of principal and interest on our increased debt levels will depend on our future performance, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive and other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available under our current credit facilities in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. In addition, our credit facilities contain financial and restrictive covenants that could limit our ability to, among other things, borrow additional funds or take advantage of business opportunities. Our failure to comply with such covenants could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all our indebtedness or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and debt service capability. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Liquidity and Capital Resources.” Our increased indebtedness may have important consequences. For example, it could:
make it more challenging for us to obtain additional financing to fund our business strategy and acquisitions, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital;
increase our vulnerability to interest rate changes and general adverse economic and industry conditions;
require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to finance acquisitions and to fund working capital, capital expenditures, manufacturing capacity expansion, business integration, research and development efforts and other general corporate activities;
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our markets; and
place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to our competitors that have less debt.
In addition, our credit facilities require us to maintain specified financial ratios and satisfy certain financial condition tests, which may require that we take action to reduce our debt or to act in a manner contrary to our business strategies. If an event of default under our credit facility or senior notes were to occur then, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the applicable agreement, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable.
We operate in the highly competitive global electric motor, drivesmotors and controls, power generation and power transmission industries.
The global electric motors drives and controls, power generation and power transmission industries are highly competitive. We encounter a wide variety of domestic and international competitors due in part to the nature of the products we manufacture and the wide variety of applications and customers we serve. In order to compete effectively, we must retain relationships with major customers and establish relationships with new customers, including those in developing countries. Moreover, in certain
applications, customers exercise significant power over business terms. It may be difficult in the short-term for us to obtain new sales to replace any decline in the sale of existing products that may be lost to competitors. Our failure to compete effectively may reduce our revenues, profitability and cash flow, and pricing pressures resulting from competition may adversely impact our profitability.
We have continued to see a trend with certain customers who are attempting to reduce the number of vendors from which they purchase product in order to reduce their costs and diversify their risk. As a result, we may lose market share to our competitors in some of the markets in which we compete.
In addition, some of our competitors are larger and have greater financial and other resources than we do. There can be no assurance that our products will be able to compete successfully with the products of these other companies.
We may also choose to exit certain businesses, markets, or channels based on a variety of factors including our 80/20 initiatives.
Our ability to establish, grow and maintain customer relationships depends in part on our ability to develop new products and product enhancements based on technological innovation.innovation, such as IoT, and marketplace acceptance of new and existing products, including products related to technology not yet adopted or utilized in certain geographic locations in which we do business.
The electric motor and power transmission industries in recent years have seen significant evolution and innovation, particularly with respect to increasing energy efficiency and control enhancements. Our ability to effectively compete in these industries depends in part on our ability to continue to develop new technologies and innovative products and product enhancements.enhancements, including enhancements based on technological innovation such as IoT. Further, many large customers in these industries generally desire to purchase from companies that can offer a broad product range, which means we must continue to develop our expertise in order to design, manufacture and sell these products successfully. This requires that we make significant investments in engineering, manufacturing, customer service and support, research and development and intellectual property protection, and there can be no assurance that in the future we will have sufficient resources to continue to make such investments. If we are unable to meet the needs of our customers for innovative products or product variety, or if our products become technologically obsolete over time due to the development by our competitors of technological breakthroughs or otherwise, our revenues and results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, we may incur significant costs and devote significant resources to the development of products that ultimately are not accepted in the marketplace, do not provide anticipated enhancements, or do not lead to significant revenue, which may adversely impact our results of operations.
Our dependence on, and the price of, raw materials may adversely affect our gross margins.
Many of the products we produce contain key materials such as steel, copper, aluminum and rare earth metals.electronics. Market prices for those materials can be volatile due to changes in supply and demand, manufacturing and other costs, regulations and tariffs, economic conditions and other circumstances. We may not be able to offset any increase in commodity costs through pricing actions, productivity enhancements or other means, and increasing commodity costs may have an adverse impact on our gross margins, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
In each of our Climate Solutions and Commercial and Industrial Systems segments, we depend on revenues from several significant customers, and any loss, cancellation or reduction of, or delay in, purchases by these customers may have a material adverse effect on our business.
We derive a significant portion of the revenues of our motor businesses from several key OEM customers. Our success will depend on our continued ability to develop and manage relationships with these customers. We have long standing relationships with these customers and we expect thisthese customer concentrationrelationships will continue for the foreseeable future. Our reliance on sales from customers makes our relationship with each of these customers important to our business. We cannot assure you that we will be able to retain these key customers. Some of our customers may in the future shift some or all of their purchases of products from us to our competitors or to other sources. The loss of one or more of our large customers, any reduction or delay in sales to these customers, our inability to develop relationships successfully with additional customers, or future price concessions that we may make could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
We manufacture a significant portion of our products outside the United States,US, and political, societal or economic instability or public health crises may present additional risks to our business.
Approximately 18,20015,550 of our approximate 23,60019,560 total employeesassociates and 6351 of our principal manufacturing and warehouse facilities are located outside the United States.US. International operations generally are subject to various risks, including political, societal and economic instability, local labor market conditions, public health crises, breakdowns in trade relations, the imposition of tariffs and other trade restrictions, lack of reliable legal systems, ownership restrictions, the impact of government regulations, the effects of income and withholding taxes, governmental expropriation or nationalization, and differences in business practices. We may incur increased costs and experience delays or disruptions in product deliveries and payments in connection with international manufacturing and sales that could cause loss of revenue.
Unfavorable changes in the political, regulatory and business climates in countries where
we have operations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.flows, including, for example, the uncertainty surrounding the effect of the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union, commonly referred to as “Brexit,” trade relations between the US and China, the implementation of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (the "USMCA"), or the change in labor rates in Mexico.
We may encounter difficultiesAdditionally, in integratingearly 2020, an outbreak of the coronavirus occurred in China and other jurisdictions. The extent of the outbreak and its impact on the markets we serve and on our operations is uncertain. A prolonged outbreak could interrupt our operations and the operations of acquired businesses which mayour customers and suppliers. If we are unable to successfully manage these and other risks associated with managing and expanding our international operations, the risks could have a material adverse impacteffect on our future growth and operating performance.
Over the past several years, as part of our strategic growth plans, we have acquired multiple businesses. Some of those acquisitions have been significant to our overall growth, such as the acquisition of PTS in fiscal 2015. The full realization of the expected benefits and synergies of PTS and other acquisitions requires integration over time of certain aspects of the manufacturing, engineering, administrative, sales and marketing and distribution functions of the acquired businesses, as well as some integration of information systems platforms and processes. Complete and successful integration of acquired businesses, and realization of expected synergies, can be a long and difficult process and may require substantial attention from our management team and involve substantial expenditures and include additional operational expenses. Even if we are able to successfully integrate the operations of acquired businesses, we may not be able to realize the expected benefits and synergies of the acquisition, either in the amount of time or within the expected time frame, or at all, and the costs of achieving these benefits may be higher than, and the timing may differ from, what we initially expect. Our ability to realize anticipated benefits and synergies from the acquisitions may be affected by a number of factors, including:
the use of more cash or other financial resources, and additional management time, attention and distraction, on integration and implementation activities than we expect, including restructuring and other exit costs;
increases in other expenses related to an acquisition, which may offset any potential cost savings and other synergies from the acquisition;
our ability to realize anticipated levels of sales in emerging markets like China and India;
our ability to avoid labor disruptions or disputes in connection with any integration;
the timing and impact of purchase accounting adjustments;
difficulties in employee or management integration; and
unanticipated liabilities associated with acquired businesses.
Any potential cost-saving opportunities may take at least several quarters following an acquisition to implement, and anybusiness, results of these actions may not be realized for at least several quarters following implementation. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully integrate the operations, of our acquired businesses, that we will be able to realize any anticipated benefitsor financial condition.
Goodwill and synergies from acquisitions or that we will be able to operate acquired businesses as profitably as anticipated.
A smallan indefinite-lived trade name intangible comprise a significant portion of our total assets, and if we determine that goodwill and the indefinite-lived trade name intangible have become impaired in the future, our results of operations and financial condition in such years may be materially and adversely affected.
As of December 28, 2019, we had goodwill of $1,501.3 million and an indefinite-lived trade name of $121.6 million. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair market value of net assets acquired in business combinations. The indefinite-lived trade name intangible represents a long-standing brand acquired in a business combination and is assumed to have indefinite life. We review goodwill and the indefinite-lived trade name intangible at least annually for impairment and any excess in carrying value over the estimated fair value is charged to the results of operations. Our estimates of fair value are based on assumptions about the future operating cash flows, growth rates, discount rates applied to these cash flows and current market estimates of value. A reduction in net income resulting from the write down or impairment of goodwill or the indefinite-lived trade name intangible would affect financial results. If we are required to record a significant charge to earnings in our consolidated financial statements because an impairment of goodwill or the indefinite-lived trade name intangible is determined, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
Portions of our total sales comescome directly from customers in the oilkey markets and gas industry.industries. A significant or prolonged decline or disruption in oil and gas pricesone of those markets or industries could result in lower capital expenditures by thosesuch customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
A small portionPortions of our total sales isare dependent directly upon the level of capital expenditures by customers in thekey markets and industries, such as HVAC, refrigeration, power generation, oil and gas, industry.and unit material handling or water heating. A significant or prolonged dropdecline or disruption in the prevailing market priceone of oilthose markets or gas, such as the drop in oil prices experienced in 2015-2016,industries may result in some of thosesuch customers delaying, canceling or modifying projects, or may result in nonpayment of amounts that are owed to us. These effects could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
We sell certain products for high volume applications, and any failure of those products to perform as anticipated could result in significant liability and expenses that may adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We manufacture and sell a number of products for high volume applications, including electric motors used in pools and spas, residential and commercial heating, ventilation and air conditioning and refrigeration equipment. Any failure of those products to perform as anticipated could result in significant product liability, product recall or rework, or other costs. The costs of product recalls and reworks are not generally covered by insurance. If we were to experience a product recall or rework in connection with products of high volume applications, our financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
One of our subsidiaries that we acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units manufactured and sold in high volumes by a third party. These ventilation units are subject to regulation by government agencies such as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”). The claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. Based on the current facts, we cannot assure you that these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our subsidiary's results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. We cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these claims, the nature or extent of any CPSC or other remedial actions, if any, that our
subsidiary or we on their behalf may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field, or the costs that may be incurred, some of which could be significant.
We are subject to litigation, including product liability and warranty claims that may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
We are, from time to time, a party to litigation that arises in the normal course of our business operations, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, employment and other litigation matters. We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability and warranty claims in the event that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. While we currently maintain general liability and product liability insurance coverage in amounts that we believe are adequate, we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain this insurance on acceptable terms or that this insurance will provide sufficient coverage against potential liabilities that may arise. Any product liability claim may also include the imposition of punitive damages, the award of which, pursuant to certain state laws, may not be covered by insurance.Any claims brought against us, with or without merit, may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations as a result of potential adverse outcomes, the expenses associated with defending such claims, the diversion of our management's resources and time and the potential adverse effect to our business reputation.
Our business may not generate cash flow from operations in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs, we could become increasingly vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry conditions and interest rate trends, and our ability to obtain future financing may be limited.
As of December 28, 2019, we had $1.1 billion in aggregate debt outstanding under our various financing arrangements, $331.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and $481.9 million in available borrowings under our current revolving credit facility. Our ability to make required payments of principal and interest on our debt levels will depend on our future performance, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive and other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that our business will generate cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available under our current credit facilities in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. In addition, our credit facilities contain financial and restrictive covenants that could limit our ability to, among other things, borrow additional funds or take advantage of business opportunities. Our failure to comply with such covenants could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all our indebtedness or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and debt service capability. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Liquidity and Capital Resources.” Our indebtedness may have important consequences. For example, it could:
make it more challenging for us to obtain additional financing to fund our business strategy and acquisitions, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital;
increase our vulnerability to interest rate changes and general adverse economic and industry conditions;
require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to finance acquisitions and to fund working capital, capital expenditures, manufacturing capacity expansion, business integration, research and development efforts and other general corporate activities;
limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our markets; and/or
place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to our competitors that have less debt.
In addition, our credit facilities require us to maintain specified financial ratios and satisfy certain financial condition tests, which may require that we take action to reduce our debt or to act in a manner contrary to our business strategies. If an event of default under our credit facility or senior notes were to occur, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the applicable agreement, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable.
Changes in the method of determining LIBOR, or the replacement of LIBOR with an alternative reference rate, may adversely affect interest expense related to our outstanding debt.
Amounts drawn under our credit facility may bear interest rates in relation to LIBOR, depending on our selection of repayment options. On July 27, 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom announced that it would phase out LIBOR as a benchmark by the end of 2021. It is unclear whether new methods of calculating LIBOR will be established such that it continues to exist after 2021. The overall financing market may be disrupted as a result of the phase-out or replacement of LIBOR. Disruption in the financing market could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, operating results, and interest expense related to our outstanding debt.
We depend on certain key suppliers, and any loss of those suppliers or their failure to meet commitments may adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We are dependent on a single or limited number of suppliers for some materials or components required in the manufacture of our products. If any of those suppliers fail to meet their commitments to us in terms of delivery or quality, we may experience supply shortages that could result in our inability to meet our customers' requirements, or could otherwise experience an interruption in our operations that could negatively impact our business and results of operations.
We may encounter difficulties in integrating the operations of acquired businesses which may have a material adverse impact on our future growth and operating performance.
Over the past several years, as part of our strategic growth plans, we have acquired multiple businesses. Some of those acquisitions have been significant to our overall growth. The full realization of the expected benefits and synergies of acquisitions requires integration over time of certain aspects of the manufacturing, engineering, administrative, sales and marketing and distribution functions of the acquired businesses, as well as some integration of information systems platforms and processes. Complete and successful integration of acquired businesses, and realization of expected synergies, can be a long and difficult process and may require substantial attention from our management team and involve substantial expenditures and include additional operational expenses. Even if we are able to successfully integrate the operations of acquired businesses, we may not be able to realize the expected benefits and synergies of the acquisition, either in the amount of time or within the expected time frame, or at all, and the costs of achieving these benefits may be higher than, and the timing may differ from, what we initially expect. Our ability to realize anticipated benefits and synergies from the acquisitions may be affected by a number of factors, including:
the use of more cash or other financial resources, and additional management time, attention and distraction, on integration and implementation activities than we expect, including restructuring and other exit costs;
increases in other expenses related to an acquisition, which may offset any potential cost savings and other synergies from the acquisition;
our ability to realize anticipated levels of sales in emerging markets;
our ability to avoid labor disruptions or disputes in connection with any integration;
the timing and impact of purchase accounting adjustments;
difficulties in associate or management integration; and
unanticipated liabilities associated with acquired businesses.
Any potential cost-saving opportunities may take at least several quarters following an acquisition to implement, and any results of these actions may not be realized for at least several quarters following implementation. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully integrate the operations of our acquired businesses, that we will be able to realize any anticipated benefits and synergies from acquisitions or that we will be able to operate acquired businesses as profitably as anticipated.
We may be adversely impacted by an inability to identify and complete acquisitions.
A substantial portion of our growth has come through acquisitions, and an important part of our growth strategy is based upon our ability to execute future acquisitions. We may not be able to identify and successfully negotiate suitable acquisitions, obtain financing for future acquisitions on satisfactory terms or otherwise complete acquisitions in the future. If we are unable to successfully complete acquisitions, our ability to grow our company may be limited.
Infringement of our intellectual property by third parties may harm our competitive position, and we may incur significant costs associated with the protection and preservation of our intellectual property.
We own or otherwise have rights in a number of patents and trademarks relating to the products we manufacture, which have been obtained over a period of years, and we continue to actively pursue patents in connection with new product development and to acquire additional patents and trademarks through the acquisitions of other businesses. These patents and trademarks have been of value in the growth of our business and may continue to be of value in the future. Our inability to protect this intellectual property generally, or the illegal breach of some or a large group of our intellectual property rights, would have an adverse effect on our business. In addition, there can be no assurance that our intellectual property will not be challenged, invalidated, circumvented or designed-around, particularly in countries where intellectual property rights are not highly developed or protected. We have incurred in the past and may incur in the future significant costs associated with defending challenges to our intellectual property or enforcing our intellectual property rights, which could adversely impact our cash flow and results of operations.
Third parties may claim that we are infringing their intellectual property rights and we could incur significant costs and expenses or be prevented from selling certain products.
We may be subject to claims from third parties that our products or technologies infringe on their intellectual property rights or that we have misappropriated intellectual property rights. If we are involved in a dispute or litigation relating to infringement of third party intellectual property rights, we could incur significant costs in defending against those claims. Our intellectual property portfolio may not be useful in asserting a counterclaim, or negotiating a license, in response to a claim of infringement or misappropriation. In addition, as a result of such claims of infringement or misappropriation, we could lose our rights to technology that are important to our business, or be required to pay damages or license fees with respect to the infringed rights or be required to redesign our products at substantial cost, any of which could adversely impact our cash flows and results of operations.
We may suffer losses as a result of foreign currency fluctuations.
The net assets, net earnings and cash flows from our foreign subsidiaries are based on the US dollar equivalent of such amounts measured in the applicable functional currency. These foreign operations have the potential to impact our financial position due to fluctuations in the local currency arising from the process of re-measuring the local functional currency in the US dollar. Any increase in the value of the US dollar in relation to the value of the local currency, whether by means of market conditions or governmental actions such as currency devaluations, will adversely affect our revenues from our foreign operations when translated into US dollars. Similarly, any decrease in the value of the US dollar in relation to the value of the local currency will increase our operating costs in foreign operations, to the extent such costs are payable in foreign currency, when translated into US dollars.
Businesses that we have acquired or that we may acquire in the future may have liabilities which are not known to us.
We have assumed liabilities of acquired businesses and may assume liabilities of businesses that we acquire in the future. There may be liabilities or risks that we fail, or are unable, to discover, or that we underestimate, in the course of performing our due diligence investigations of acquired businesses. Additionally, businesses that we have acquired or may acquire in the future may have made previous acquisitions, and we will be subject to certain liabilities and risks relating to these prior acquisitions as well. We cannot assure you that our rights to indemnification contained in definitive acquisition agreements that we have entered or may enter into will be sufficient in amount, scope or duration to fully offset the possible liabilities associated with the business or property acquired. Any such liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. As we begin to operate acquired businesses, we may learn additional information about them that adversely affects us, such as unknown or contingent liabilities, issues relating to compliance with applicable laws or issues related to ongoing customer relationships or order demand.
Goodwill and indefinite-lived trade name intangibles comprise a significant portion of our total assets, and if we determine that goodwill and indefinite-lived trade name intangibles have become impaired in the future, our results of operations and financial condition in such years may be materially and adversely affected.
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair market value of net assets acquired in business combinations. Indefinite-lived trade name intangibles represent long-standing brands acquired in business combinations and assumed to have indefinite lives. We review goodwill and indefinite-lived trade name intangibles at least annually for impairment and any excess in carrying value over the estimated fair value is charged to the results of operations. Our estimates of fair value are based on assumptions about the future operating cash flows, growth rates, discount rates applied to these cash flows and current market estimates of value. A reduction in net income resulting from the write down or impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived trade name intangibles would affect financial results and could have a material and adverse impact upon the market price of our common stock. If we are required to record a significant charge to earnings in our consolidated financial statements because an impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived trade name intangibles is determined, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
Commodity, currency and interest rate hedging activities may adversely impact our financial performance as a result of changes in global commodity prices, interest rates and currency rates.
We use derivative financial instruments in order to reduce the substantial effects of currency and commodity fluctuations and interest rate exposure on our cash flow and financial condition. These instruments may include foreign currency and commodity forward contracts, currency swap agreements and currency option contracts, as well as interest rate swap agreements. We have entered into, and expect to continue to enter into, such hedging arrangements. While limiting to some degree our risk fluctuations in currency exchange, commodity price and interest rates byBy utilizing such hedging instruments, we potentiallymay forgo benefits that might result from other fluctuations in currency exchange, commodity and interest rates. We also are exposed to the risk that counterparties to hedging contracts will default on their obligations. We manage exposure to counterparty credit risk by limiting our counterparties to major international banks and financial institutions meeting established credit guidelines. However, anyAny default by such counterparties might have an adverse effect on us.
We may incur costs or suffer reputational damage due to improper conduct of our employees,associates, agents or business partners.
We are subject to a variety of domestic and foreign laws, rules and regulations relating to improper payments to government officials, bribery, anti-kickback and false claims rules, competition, export and import compliance, money laundering and data privacy. If our employees,associates, agents or business partners engage in activities in violation of these laws, rules or regulations, we may be subject to civil or criminal fines or penalties or other sanctions, may incur costs associated with government investigations, or may suffer damage to our reputation.
Sales of products incorporated into HVAC systems and other residential applications are seasonal and affected by the weather; mild or cooler weather could have an adverse effect on our operating performance.
Many of our motors are incorporated into HVAC systems and other residential applications that OEMs sell to end users. The number of installations of new and replacement HVAC systems or components and other residential applications is higher during the spring and summer seasons due to the increased use of air conditioning during warmer months. Mild or cooler weather conditions during the spring and summer season often result in end users deferring the purchase of new or replacement HVAC systems or
components. As a result, prolonged periods of mild or cooler weather conditions in the spring or summer season in broad geographical areas could have a negative impact on the demand for our HVAC motors and, therefore, could have an adverse effect on our operating performance. In addition, due to variations in weather conditions from year to year, our operating performance in any single year may not be indicative of our performance in any future year.
Divestitures of some of our businesses or product lines may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
We may be adversely impacted by an inability to identify and complete acquisitions.
A substantial portioncontinually evaluate the strategic fit of our growth has come through acquisitions,businesses and an important partproducts, which may result in divestitures. Any divestiture may result in write-offs, including those related to goodwill and other intangible assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position. In addition, divestitures may result in asset impairment charges, including those related to goodwill and other intangible assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Divestitures could involve additional risks, including difficulties in the separation of operations, products and personnel, the diversion of management’s attention, the disruption of our growth strategy is based upon our ability to execute future acquisitions. We may notbusiness and the potential loss of key associates. There can be able to identify and successfully negotiate suitable acquisitions, obtain financing for future acquisitions on satisfactory termsno assurance that we will be successful in addressing these or otherwise complete acquisitions in the future. If we are unable to successfully complete acquisitions, our ability to grow our company may be limited.any other significant risks associated with divestitures.
Our success is highly dependent on qualified and sufficient staffing. Our failure to attract or retain qualified personnel, including our senior management team, could lead to a loss of revenue or profitability.
Our success depends, in part, on the efforts and abilities of our senior management team and key employees. Theirassociates and the contributions of talented associates in various operations and functions, such as engineering, finance, sales, marketing, manufacturing, etc. The skills, experience and industry contacts of our senior management team significantly benefit our operations and administration. The failure to attract or retain members of our senior management team and key employeestalent could have a negative effect on our operating results.
Our operations are highly dependent on information technology infrastructure, and failures, attacks or breaches could significantly affect our business.
We depend heavily on our information technology infrastructure in order to achieve our business objectives. If we experience a problem that impairs this infrastructure, such as a computer virus, a problem with the functioning of an important IT application, or an intentional disruption of our IT systems by a third party, the resulting disruptions could impede our ability to record or process orders, manufacture and ship in a timely manner, or otherwise carry on our business in the ordinary course. Any such events could cause us to lose customers or revenue and could require us to incur significant expense to eliminate these problems and address related security concerns.concerns, including costs relating to investigation and remediation actions.
IT security threats via computer malware and other “cyber attacks,“cyber-attacks,” which are increasing in both frequency and sophistication, could also result in unauthorized disclosures of information, such as customer data, personally identifiable information or other confidential or proprietary material, and create financial liability, subject us to legal or regulatory sanctions, or damage our reputation. Moreover, because the techniques used to gain access to or sabotage systems often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate the methods necessary to defend against these types of attacks, and we cannot predict the extent, frequency or impact these attacks may have on us. While we continuously seek to maintain robust information security mechanisms and controls, the impact of a material IT event could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position, results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.
We are inhave substantially completed the processimplementation of implementing a global Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”(the “ERP”) system that will redesignredesigned and deploydeployed a common information system. We will continue to implement the ERP system over a period of several years.throughout the business. The process of implementation can be costly and can divert the attention of management from the day-to-day operations of the business. As we implement the ERP system, some elements may not perform as expected. This could have an adverse effect on our business.
Worldwide economic conditions may adversely affect our industry, business and results of operations.
General economic conditions and conditions in the global financial markets can affect our results of operations. Deterioration in the global economy could lead to higher unemployment, lower consumer spending and reduced investment by businesses, and could lead our customers to slow spending on our products or make it difficult for our customers, our vendors and us to accurately forecast and plan future business activities. Worsening economic conditions could also affect the financial viability of our suppliers, some of which we may consider key suppliers. If the commercial, and industrial, residential HVAC, power generation and power transmission markets significantly deteriorate, our business, financial condition and results of operations will likely be materially and adversely affected. Additionally, our stock price could decrease if investors have concerns that our business, financial condition and results of operations will be negatively impacted by a worldwide economic downturn.
We may be adversely affected by environmental, health and safety laws and regulations.
We are subject to various laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment and human health and safety and have incurred and will continue to incur capital and other expenditures to comply with these regulations. Failure to comply with any environmental regulations, including more stringent environmental laws that may be imposed in the future, could subject us to future liabilities, fines or penalties or the suspension of production. In addition, if environmental and human health and safety laws and regulations are repealed, made less burdensome or implemented at a later date, demand for our products designed to comply with such regulations may be unfavorably impacted.
Our operations can be negatively impacted by natural disasters, terrorism, acts of war, international conflict, political and governmental actions which could harm our business.
Natural disasters, acts or threats of war or terrorism, international conflicts, and the actions taken by the United StatesUS and other governments in response to such events could cause damage or disrupt our business operations, our suppliers, or our customers, and could create political or economic instability, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business. Although it is not possible to predict such events or their consequences, these events could decrease demand for our products, could make it difficult or impossible for us to deliver products, or could disrupt our supply chain. We may also be negatively impacted by actions by the United StatesUS or foreign governments which could disrupt manufacturing and commercial operations, including policy changes affecting taxation, trade, immigration, currency devaluation, tariffs, customs, border actions and the like.like, including, for example, the uncertainty surrounding the effect of the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union, commonly referred to as “Brexit,” trade relations between the US and China, the implementation of the USMCA, or the change in labor rates in Mexico.
We are subject to changes in legislative, regulatory and legal developments involving income and other taxes.
We are subject to US federal, state, and international income, payroll, property, sales and use, fuel, and other types of taxes. Changes in tax rates, enactment of new tax laws, revisions of tax regulations, and claims or litigation with taxing authorities, including claims or litigation related to our interpretation and application of tax laws and regulations, could result in substantially higher taxes, could have a negative impact on our ability to compete in the global marketplace, and could have a significant adverse effect on our results or operations, financial conditions and liquidity.
We are subject to tax laws and regulations in many jurisdictions and the inability to successfully defend claims from taxing authorities related to our current and/or acquired businesses could adversely affect our operating results and financial position.
A significant amount of our revenue is generated from customers located outside of the United States,US, and an increasingly greater portion of our assets and employeesassociates are located outside of the United StatesUS which requires us to interpret the income tax laws and rulings in each of those taxing jurisdictions. Due to the subjectivity of tax laws between those jurisdictions as well as the subjectivity of factual interpretations, our estimates of income tax liabilities may differ from actual payments or assessments. Claims from taxing authorities related to these differences could have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial position.
The effect of recent US Tax Reform legislation is subject to continued regulatory and interpretive guidance, which could impact our financial results.
On December 22, 2017, the US government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”). The Act contains significant changes to corporate taxation including, among other things, reduction of the US corporate tax rate from a top marginal rate of 35% to a flat rate of 21%, limitation of the tax deduction for interest expense (except for certain small businesses), limitation of the deduction for future net operating losses to 80% of current year taxable income and elimination of net operating loss carrybacks, one time taxation of foreign earnings at reduced rates regardless of whether they are repatriated, elimination of US tax on foreign earnings (subject to certain exceptions), immediate deductions for certain new investments instead of deductions over time, and modifying or repealing many business deductions and credits. Notwithstanding the reduction in the corporate income tax rate, the overall impact of the new federal tax law is uncertain and our business and financial condition could be adversely affected. In addition, it is uncertain if and to what extent various states will conform to the newly enacted federal tax law. Financial results for fiscal 2017 reflect provisional estimates based on our initial analysis and current interpretation of the legislation. Given the complexity of the legislation, anticipated guidance from the US Treasury, and the potential for additional guidance from the SEC or the Financial Accounting Standards Board, these provisional estimates may be adjusted during fiscal 2018.
Our stock may be subject to significant fluctuations and volatility.
The market price of shares of our common stock may be volatile. Among the factors that could affect our common stock price are those discussed above under “Risk Factors” as well as:
domestic and international economic and political factors unrelated to our performance;
quarterly fluctuation in our operating income and earnings per share results;
decline in demand for our products;
significant strategic actions by our competitors, including new product introductions or technological advances;
fluctuations in interest rates;
cost increases in energy, raw materials, intermediate components or materials, or labor; and
changes in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports by analysts.
In addition, stock markets may experience extreme volatility that may be unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
One of our subsidiariesA subsidiary that we acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units manufactured and sold in high volumes by a third party. These ventilation units are subject to product safety requirements and other potential regulation of their performance by government agencies such as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”). The claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. We have recorded an estimated liability for incurred claims. Based on the current facts, we cannot assure that these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on itsour subsidiary's financial condition. Our subsidiary cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these claims, the nature or extent of any CPSC or other remedial actions, if any, that our subsidiary may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field, or the costs that may be incurred, some of which could be significant.
We are from time to time, party to litigation and other legal or regulatory proceedings that arise in the normal course of our business operations and the outcomes of which are subject to significant uncertainty, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, intellectual property, employment and other litigation matters. Our products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject us to claims that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. Many of these matters will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Our management conducts regular reviews, including updates from legal counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise in judgment. We accrue for exposures in amounts that we believe are adequate, and we do not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit individually or collectively will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Overview
General
Regal Beloit Corporation (NYSE: RBC) (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), based in Beloit, Wisconsin (USA), is a leading manufacturer of electric motors, electrical motion controls, power generation and power transmission products serving markets throughout the world. As of the end of fiscal 2017,2019, the Company, including its subsidiaries, employsemployed approximately 23,60019,560 people in its manufacturing, sales, and service facilities and corporate offices throughout the United States,US, Canada, Mexico, Europe and Asia. In 2017,fiscal 2019, we reported annual net sales of $3.4$3.2 billion compared to $3.2$3.6 billion in 2016.fiscal 2018.
Our company is comprised of threefour operating segments: Commercial andSystems, Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Power Transmission Solutions.
A description of the threefour operating segments is as follows:
Commercial Systems segment produces fractional to approximately 5 horsepower AC and Industrial Systems produces mediumDC motors, electronic variable speed controls, fans, and large motors,blowers for commercial and industrial equipment, generator and custom drives and systems.applications. These products serve markets including commercial Heating, Ventilation,building ventilation and Air Conditioning ("HVAC"),HVAC, pool and spa, standbyirrigation, dewatering, agriculture, and critical powergeneral commercial equipment.
Industrial Systems segment produces integral motors, generators, alternators and switchgear for industrial applications, along with aftermarket parts and kits to support such products. These products serve markets including agriculture, marine, mining, oil and gas, systems.food and beverage, data centers, healthcare, prime and standby power, and general industrial equipment.
Climate Solutions segment produces small motors, electronic variable speed controls and air moving solutions serving markets including residential and light commercial HVAC, water heaters and commercial refrigeration.
Power Transmission Solutions manufactures,segment produces, sells and services belt and chain drives, helical and worm gearing, mounted and unmounted bearings, couplings, modular plastic belts, conveying chains and components, hydraulic pump drives, large open gearing and specialty mechanical products serving markets including beverage, bulk handling, metals, special machinery, energy, aerospace and general industrial.
On January 30, 2015, we closed the acquisition of the Power Transmission Solutions (“PTS”) business from Emerson Electric Co. The purchase price for PTS was $1.4 billion in cash and the assumption of $43.0 million of liabilities. PTS had over 3,200 employees around the world, and effective on the closing date became part of the Power Transmission Solutions segment.
Components of Profit and Loss
Net Sales. We sell our products to a variety of manufacturers, distributors and end users. Our customers consist of a large cross-section of businesses, ranging from Fortune 100 companies to small businesses. A number of our products are sold to original equipment manufacturers,OEMs, who incorporate our products, such as electric motors, into products they manufacture, and many of our products are built to the requirements of our customers. The majority of our sales deriveare derived from direct sales butto customers by sales personnel employed by the Company, however, a significant portion derivesof our sales are derived from sales made by manufacturer’s representatives, who are paid exclusively on commission. Our product sales are made via purchase order, long-term contract, and, in some instances, one-time purchases. Many of our products have broad customer bases, with the levels of concentration of revenues varying from divisionbusiness unit to division.business unit.
Our level of net sales for any given period is dependent upon a number of factors, including (i) the demand for our products; (ii) the strength of the economy generally and the end markets in which we compete; (iii) our customers’ perceptions of our product quality at any given time; (iv) our ability to timely meet customer demands; (v) the selling price of our products; and (vi) the weather. As a result, our total revenue has tended to experience quarterly variations and our total revenue for any particular quarter may not be indicative of future results.
We use the term “organic sales" to refer to sales from existing operations excluding (i) sales from acquired businesses recorded prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition (“Acquisition Sales”), (ii) less the amount of sales attributable to any divested businesses (“acquisition sales”divested/to be exited ("Business To Be Exited"), and (ii)(iii) the impact of foreign currency translation. The impact of foreign currency translation is determined by translating the respective period’s organic sales (excluding acquisition sales) using the same currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior year periods. We use the term “organic sales growth” to refer to the increase in our sales between periods that is attributable to organic sales. We use the term “acquisition growth” to refer to the increase in our sales between periods that is attributable to acquisition sales.Acquisition Sales.
Gross Profit. Our gross profit is impacted by our levels of net sales and cost of sales. Our cost of sales consists of costs for, among other things (i) raw materials, including copper, steel and aluminum; (ii) components such as castings, bars, tools, bearings and electronics; (iii) wages and related personnel expenses for fabrication, assembly and logistics personnel; (iv) manufacturing facilities, including depreciation on our manufacturing facilities and equipment, taxes, insurance and utilities; and (v) shipping. The majority of our cost of sales consists of raw materials and components. The price we pay for commodities and components can be subject to commodity price fluctuations. We attempt to mitigate thisportions of the commodity price fluctuations through fixed-price agreements with suppliers and our hedging strategies. We are currently reducing the number of our suppliers we use in order to leverage the better prices and terms that can be obtained with higher volume orders. A large amount of our suppliers are in North America. As we expand production and our geographic footprint, we expect it may be advantageous to increase our use of foreign suppliers. When we experience commodity price increases, we have tended to announce price increases to our customers who purchase via purchase order, with such increases generally taking effect a period of time after the public announcements. For those sales we make under long-term arrangements, we tend to include material price formulas that specify quarterly or semi-annual price adjustments based on a variety of factors, including commodity prices.
Outside of general economic cyclicality, our different business units experience different levels of variation in gross profit from quarter to quarter based on factors specific to each division.business. For example, a portion of our Climate Solutions segment manufactures products that are used in air conditioning applications. As a result, our sales for that business tend to be lower in the first and fourth quarters and higher in the second and third quarters. In contrast, our Commercial andSystems segment, Industrial Systems segment and our Power Transmission Solutions segment have a broad customer base and a variety of applications, thereby helping to mitigate large quarter-to-quarter fluctuations outside of general economic conditions.
Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses consist primarily of (i) general and administrative expenses; (ii) sales and marketing expenses; (iii) general engineering and research and development expenses; and (iv) handling costs incurred in conjunction with distribution activities. Personnel related costs are our largest operating expense.
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs for (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel expenses related to our executive, finance, human resource, information technology, legal and operations functions; (ii) occupancy expenses; (iii) technology related costs; (iv) depreciation and amortization; and (v) corporate-related travel. The majority of our general and administrative costs are for salaries and related personnel expenses. These costs can vary by divisionbusiness given the location of our different manufacturing operations.
Our sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of costs for (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel expenses related to our sales and marketing function; (ii) internal and external sales commissions and bonuses; (iii) travel, lodging and other out-of-pocket expenses associated with our selling efforts; and (iv) other related overhead.
Our general engineering and research and development expenses consist primarily of costs for (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel expenses; (ii) the design and development of new energy efficiency products and enhancements; (iii) quality assurance and testing; and (iv) other related overhead. Our research and development efforts tend to be targeted toward developing new products that would allow us to maintain or gain additional market share, whether in new or existing applications. While these costs make up an insignificant portion of our operating expenses in the Power Transmission Solutions segment, they are more substantial in our Commercial andSystems, Industrial Systems and Climate Solutions segments. In particular, a large driver of our research and development efforts in these twothose three segments is energy efficiency, which generally means using less electrical power to produce more mechanical power.
Goodwill & Other Asset Impairments.In the first quarter of 2019, we transferred assets to held for sale which resulted in the recognition of $5.1 million of fixed asset impairments and $4.9 million of customer relationships intangible asset impairments.
On July 31, 2018, we received notification from a customer of our hermetic climate business that it would wind down operations. As a result of this notification, we accelerated our plans to exit the hermetic climate business. We recognized exit and exit related charges of $34.9 million during fiscal 2018. The charges included goodwill impairment of $9.5 million, customer relationship intangible asset impairment of $5.5 million, technology intangible asset impairment of $2.1 million and fixed asset impairment of $1.1 million. In addition to the asset impairments, the Company took charges on accounts receivable and inventory along with recognizing other expenses related to exiting the business.
We did not record any goodwill or other asset impairments in fiscal 2017 or fiscal 2016; however, we recorded non-cash charges in Operating Expenses related to goodwill2017.
The following table presents impairments in fiscal 2015 (“2015 Impairment”)by segment as detailed belowof December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018 (in millions). See also Note 3 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Operating Profit. Our operating profit consists of the segment gross profit less the segment operating expenses. In addition, there are shared operating costs that cover corporate, engineering and IT expenses that are consistently allocated to the operating segments
and are included in the segment operating expenses. Operating profit is a key metric used to measure year over year improvement of the segments.
Outlook
Outlook.In 2018,fiscal 2020, we are forecasting another year of low to mid-single digit organic sales growth, and we expect to improve our operating margin.margin through the use of 80/20 principles. We expect the benefitsto see positive impact from our price actions and simplification projects will more than offsetnew products targeted for the commodity inflation headwind.upcoming energy efficiency regulations. In 2018,fiscal 2020, we expect diluted earnings per share to be $5.19$5.35 to $5.59.$5.75. Our 2018fiscal 2020 diluted earnings per share guidance is based on an effective tax rate of 21%, which includes the impact of the Act..

Net sales for the Power Transmission Solutions segment for fiscal 2016 were $733.6 million, a 5.1% decrease compared to fiscal 2015 net sales of $773.6 million. The decrease consisted of an organic sales decline of 8.1% and a negative foreign currency translation impact of 0.2%. Acquisitions net of divestitures benefited 2016 sales by 3.2% as compared to 2015. Organic sales declines were primarily driven by lower demand from the industrial distribution channel, and weak oil and gas, metals and agricultural end markets. Gross profit for 2016 increased $11.0 million primarily due to the inventory step up in cost of goods sold of $20.7 million related to the acquired PTS business included in the prior year, and $1.0 million of LIFO benefit in 2015. LIFO for 2016 was a slight benefit of $0.2 million. Gross profit as a percent of sales increased 310 basis points as compared to the prior year. Operating expenses for 2016 decreased $24.0 million due primarily to the $9.1 million of acquisition fees incurred in 2015 and the $11.6 million gain on the sale of the Mastergear business in 2016 as compared to 2015. In addition, current year operating expenses included one month of incremental operating expenses associated with the acquired PTS business.
The effective tax rate for fiscal 2016 was 21.4% compared to 24.6% for fiscal 2015. The decrease in the effective tax rate was due primarily to the fiscal 2015 non-deductible goodwill impairment. The lower effective tax rate in fiscal 2016 as compared to the 35% statutory US federal income tax rate is driven by the mix of earnings, adjustments to reflect updates to our accounting for changes as a result of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and lower foreign tax rates.

AtAs of December 30, 2017,28, 2019, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $139.6$331.4 million. AtAs of December 30, 2017, $135.928, 2019, $331.4 million of our cash was held by foreign subsidiaries and could be used in our domestic operations if necessary. We periodically evaluate our cash held outside the US and may pursue opportunities to repatriate certain foreign cash amounts. We repatriated $244.3$32.1 million of foreign cash in fiscal 2017. As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Act”), dividends to the US no longer incur US tax2019.
however a one-time tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings payable over eight years was included in the Act. We recognized a provisional charge of $40.0 million related to the historical unremitted earnings as a result of the Act payable over eight years.
We will, from time to time, maintain excess cash balances which may be used to (i) fund operations, (ii) repay outstanding debt, (iii) fund acquisitions, (iv) pay dividends, (v) make investments in new product development programs, (vi) repurchase our common stock, or (vii) fund other corporate objectives.
Pension Liabilities and Other Post Retirement Benefits
Accrued Pensionpension and other post retirement benefits of $104.8$85.3 million atand $100.3 million as of December 30, 2017 was consistent with the prior year amount of $110.4 million at28, 2019 and December 31, 2016.29, 2018, respectively.
Credit Agreement
In connection with our acquisition of the PTS Acquisition,Power Transmission Solutions business of Emerson Electric Co. on January 30, 2015 (the "PTS Acquisition"), we entered into a newCredit Agreement (the “Prior Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and the lenders named therein, providing for a (i) 5-year unsecured term loan facility in the principal amount of $1.25 billion (the “Prior Term Facility”) and (ii) a 5-year unsecured multicurrency revolving facility in the principal amount of $500.0 million (the “Prior Multicurrency Revolving Facility”), including a $100.0 million letter of credit sub facility available for general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bore interest at floating rates based upon indices determined by the currency of the borrowing, plus an applicable margin determined by reference to our consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio or at an alternative base rate.
On August 27, 2018, we replaced the Prior Credit Agreement by entering into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and the lenders named therein, providing for a (i) 5-year unsecured term loan facility in the principal amount of $1.25 billion$900.0 million (the “Term Facility”) and (ii) a 5-year unsecured multicurrency revolving facility in the principal amount of $500.0 million (the “Multicurrency Revolving Facility”), including a $100$50.0 million letter of credit sub facility, available for general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at floating rates based upon indices determined by the currency of the borrowing, plus an applicable margin determined by reference to our consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio or at an alternative base rate.
The Term Facility was drawn in full on January 30, 2015 in connectionAugust 27, 2018 with the closing ofproceeds settling the PTS Acquisition. The loanamounts owed under the Prior Term Facility and Prior Multicurrency Revolving Facility. The Term Facility requires quarterly amortization at a rate starting at 5.0% per annum, increasing to 7.5% per annum after twothree years and further increasing to 10.0% per annum for the last two years of the Term Facility, unless previously prepaid. The weighted average interest rate on the Term Facility was 2.6%3.6% and 2.3%3.4% for the fiscal years ended December 30, 201728, 2019 and December 31, 2016,29, 2018, respectively. The Credit Agreement requires weus to prepay the loans under the Term Facility with 100% of the net cash proceeds received from specified asset sales and borrowed money indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions. We repaid $90.0 million under the Term Facility in fiscal 2019 and 2018, respectively.
At
As of December 30, 2017,28, 2019 we had borrowings under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility in the amount of $19.7$17.7 million, $5.3$0.4 million of standby letters of credit issued under the facility, and $475.0$481.9 million of available borrowing capacity. The average daily balance in borrowings under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility was $111.2$91.7 million and $21.0$171.5 million, and the weighted average interest rate on the Multicurrency Revolving Facility was 2.6%3.6% and 2.2%3.3% for the fiscal years ended December 30, 201728, 2019 and December 31, 2016,29, 2018, respectively. We pay a non-use fee on the aggregate unused amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Facility at a rate determined by reference to its consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio.
Senior Notes

Litigation
See Part 1 - Item 3 - Legal Proceedings for additional details.
Litigation
One of our subsidiaries that we acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units manufactured and sold in high volumes by a third party. These ventilation units are subject to product safety requirements and other potential regulation of their performance by government agencies such as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”). The claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. We have recorded an estimated liability for incurred claims. Based on the current facts, we cannot assure that these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its subsidiary's financial condition. Our subsidiary cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these claims, the nature or extent of any CPSC or other remedial actions, if any, that our subsidiary may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field, or the costs that may be incurred, some of which could be significant.
We are from time to time, party to litigation and other legal or regulatory proceedings that arise in the normal course of our business operations and the outcomes of which are subject to significant uncertainty, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, intellectual property, employment and other litigation matters. Our products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject us to claims that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. Many of these matters will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Our management conducts regular reviews, including updates from legal counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise in judgment. We accrue for exposures in amounts that we believe are adequate, and we do not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit individually or collectively will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(1) The timing and future spot prices affect the settlement values of our hedge obligations related to commodities and currency exchange rates. Accordingly, these obligations are not included above in the table of contractual obligations (See also Item 7A and Note 139 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The timing of settlement of our tax contingent liabilities cannot be reasonably determined and they are not included above in the table of contractual obligations. The one-time mandatory transition tax on undistributed earnings of foreign affiliates, which is payable over eight years pursuant to the timeline outlined in the Act, is a provisional estimate and therefore the related payments are not included in the above table of contractual obligations. Future pension obligation payments after fiscal 20172019 are subject to revaluation based on changes in the benefit population and/or changes in the value of pension assets based on market conditions that are not determinable as of December 30, 2017.28, 2019.
(2) Variable rate debt based on December 30, 201728, 2019 rates. See also Note 7 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
We utilize blanket purchase orders (“blankets”Blankets”) to communicate expected annual requirements to many of our suppliers. Requirements under blanketsBlankets generally do not become “firm” until a varying number of weeks before our scheduled production. The purchase obligations shown in the above table represent the value we consider “firm.”
AtAs of December 30, 2017,28, 2019, we had outstanding standby letters of credit totaling approximately $29.8$21.4 million. We had no other material commercial commitments.
We did not have any material variable interest entities as of December 30, 201728, 2019 or December 31, 2016.29, 2018. Other than disclosed in the table above and the previous paragraph, we had no other material off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US") requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe the following critical accounting policies could have the most significant effect on our reported results.
Purchase Accounting and Business Combinations
Assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as part of a business combination are recognized separately from goodwill at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. We, with the assistance of outside specialists as necessary, use estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date as well as contingent consideration, where applicable. We may refine these estimates during the measurement period which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. As a result, during the measurement period, we record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our Consolidated Statements of Income.
Goodwill
We evaluate the carrying amount of goodwill annually, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that an asset might be impaired. When applying the accounting guidance, we use estimates to determine when it might be necessary to take an impairment charge. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include significant underperformance relative to historical or forecasted operating results, a significant decrease in the market value of an asset or significant negative industry or economic trends. For goodwill, we may perform a qualitative test 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 quantitative goodwill impairment test. We perform our required annual goodwill impairment test as of the end of the October fiscal month.
We use a weighting of the market approach and the income approach (discounted cash flow method) in testing goodwill for impairment. In the market approach, we apply performance multiples from comparable public companies, adjusted for relative risk, profitability, and growth considerations, to the reporting units to estimate fair value. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow method used to estimate fair value include discount rates, revenue and operating incomeEBITDA margin projections and terminal value rates because such assumptions are the most sensitive and susceptible to change as they require significant management judgment. Discount rates are determined by using market and industry data as well as Company-specific risk factors for each reporting unit. The discount rate utilized for each reporting unit is indicative of the return an investor would expect to receive for investing in such a business. Terminal value rate determination follows common methodology of capturing the present value of perpetual cash flow estimates beyond the last projected period assuming a constant discount rate and long-term growth rates.
The
In conjunction with the change from three operating segments to four operating segments, we evaluated and changed our reporting unit structure. For fiscal 2019 the calculated fair values for three of our 2017 impairment testing exceededreporting units did not exceed the carrying valuesvalue by at least 10% for all: the global industrial motors reporting unit, the commercial air moving reporting unit and the power systems switch reporting unit. The global industrial motors reporting unit had goodwill of $122.3 million as of December 28, 2019 and is included in our Industrial Systems segment. The commercial air moving reporting units.unit had goodwill of $38.3 million as of December 28, 2019 and is included in our Commercial Systems segment. The power systems switch reporting unit had goodwill of $15.6 million as of December 28, 2019 and is included in our Industrial Systems segment. Some of the key considerations used in our impairment testing included (i) market pricing of guideline publicly traded companies (ii) cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate, and (iii) recent historical and projected performanceoperating results of the subject reporting unit.units. There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in goodwill impairment testing. A change to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment.impairment that could be material.
The calculated fair values for our 2016 impairment testing exceeded the carrying values of the reporting units for all of our reporting units. The excess exceeded 10% of the carrying value for all reporting units except for the PTS reporting unit, which is a combination of the acquired PTS business from Emerson Electric and the Company's legacy PTS business. Throughout 2016, the PTS reporting unit was impacted by declines in the oil and gas, distribution, and agricultural end-markets. The PTS reporting unit had goodwill of $570.8 million as of December 31, 2016. Our impairment test indicated the reporting unit’s implied fair value exceeded its book value by approximately 2%. Some of the key considerations used in our impairment testing included (i) market pricing of guideline publicly traded companies (ii) cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate, and (iii) recent historical and projected performance of the subject reporting unit. There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in goodwill impairment testing. A change to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment.
We aggregate our business units by segment for reporting purposes and the majority of our goodwill is within our Power Transmissions Solutions segment (see also Note 56 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements).
Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable through future cash flows. When applying the accounting guidance, we use estimates to determine when an impairment is necessary. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include a significant decrease in the market value of an asset or significant negative or economic trends (see also Note 5 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). For long-lived assets, the Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the primary asset to estimate recoverability.
Indefinite-Lived Assets
Indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of thea trade namesname associated with the acquired PTS business. They wereAcquisition. It was evaluated for impairment using fiscalin October 2017 information using a relief from royalty method to determine whether their fair values exceed their respective carrying amounts. The Company2019. We determined the fair value of these assetsthis asset using a royalty relief methodology similar to that employedthe methodology used when the associated assets wereasset was acquired, but using updated assumptions and estimates of future sales cash flows and profitability.

Some of the key considerations used in our impairment testing included (i) cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate, (ii) royalty rate, and (iii) recent historical and projected performance of the subject reporting unit.operating performance. There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in indefinite-lived intangible asset testing. A change to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment.impairment that could be material.
Retirement and Post Retirement Plans
Most of our domestic employeesassociates are participants in defined contribution plans and/or defined benefit pension plans. The defined benefit pension plans covering a majority of our domestic employeesassociates have been closed to new employeesassociates and frozen for existing employees.associates. Certain employeesassociates are covered by a post retirement health care plan. Most of our foreign employeesassociates are covered by government sponsored plans in the countries in which they are employed. Our obligations under our defined benefit pension plans are determined with the assistance of actuarial firms. The actuaries make certain assumptions regarding such factors as withdrawal rates and mortality rates. The actuaries also provide information and recommendations from which management makes further assumptions on such factors as the long-term expected rate of return on plan assets, the discount rate on benefit obligations and where applicable, the rate of annual compensation increases.
Based upon the assumptions made, the investments made by the plans, overall conditions and movement in financial markets, particularly the stock market and how actual withdrawal rates, life-spans of benefit recipients and other factors differ from assumptions, annual expenses and recorded assets or liabilities of these defined benefit pension plans may change significantly from year to year.
We changed the method used to estimate the service and interest cost components of the net periodic pension and other post retirement benefit costs beginning in 2016. The new method uses the spot yield curve approach to estimate the service and interest costs by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used to determine the benefit obligations to relevant projected cash outflows. The current methodology for selecting the discount rate was to match the plan's cash flows to that of a theoretical bond portfolio yield curve used to measure the benefit obligation at the beginning of the period. The change will not affect the measurement of the total benefit obligations as the change in service and interest costs is offset in the actuarial gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income. We changed the method to provide a more precise measure of interest and service costs by improving the correlation between the projected benefit cash flows and the discrete spot yield curve rates. The Company has accounted for this change as a change in estimate prospectively and resulted in a $2.9 million reduction in expense for fiscal 2016 as compared to the previous method.
Further discussion of our accounting policies is contained in Note 3 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
ITEM 7A - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk relating to our operations due to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices of purchased raw materials. We manage the exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating and financing activities and derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, commodity cash flow hedges and foreign currency forward exchange contracts. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to clearly defined policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative purposes.
All qualified hedges are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with changes in fair value recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (“AOCI”) in each accounting period. An ineffective portion of the hedges' change in fair value, if any, is recorded in earnings in the period of change.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk on certain of our short-term and long-term debt obligations used to finance our operations and acquisitions. AtAs of December 30, 2017,28, 2019, we had $504.7$404.3 million of fixed rate debt and $641.8$737.9 million of variable rate debt. AtAs of December 31, 2016, excluding the impact of interest rate swaps,29, 2018, we had $504.7$404.7 million of fixed rate debt and $916.5$908.6 million of variable rate debt. We have previously utilizedutilize interest rate swaps to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from exposure to interest rate risk on forecasted variable rate interest payments. The remaining interest rate swap agreement terminated in August 2017.
We have floating rate borrowings, which expose us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 10% change in our weighted average borrowing rate on outstanding variable rate debt atas of December 30, 201728, 2019 would result in a $1.7$1.8 million change in after-tax annualized earnings. We hadhave entered into a pay fixed/receive floating interest rate swap to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk related to the floating rate interest on our 2007 Notes which were paid in August 2017. ThisTerm Facility. Such interest rate swap hadhas been designated as a cash flow hedge against forecasted interest payments.
Details regarding the instruments as of December 28, 2019 are as follows (in millions):
|
| | | | | |
| Instrument | Notional Amount | Maturity | Rate Paid | Rate Received | Fair Value Loss |
| Swap | $88.4 | April 12, 2021 | 2.5% | LIBOR (1 month) | $(1.0) |
As of December 31, 2016, an28, 2019, a $1.0 million interest rate swap liability of $(3.3) million was included in CurrentNoncurrent Hedging Obligations. TheAs of December 29, 2018, an immaterial interest rate swap was included in Other Noncurrent Assets. There was an unrealized loss onof $(0.8) million, net of tax, for fiscal 2019 and an immaterial amount for 2018 that was recorded in AOCI for the effective portion of the contract, nethedge.
In July 2017, the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of tax,LIBOR after 2021. We have material exposure to LIBOR through our revolving credit facility, certain lines of $(2.1) million as of December 31, 2016, was recorded in AOCI. Thecredit and interest rate swap matured in August 2017.swaps that are indexed to USD-LIBOR. It is expected that LIBOR will be discontinued and, while we believe an acceptable replacement to LIBOR will be available, if LIBOR is discontinued, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact, if any, on such discontinuation.
Foreign Currency Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Our objective is to minimize our exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating activities and the utilization of foreign currency exchange contracts to manage our exposure on the forecasted transactions denominated in currencies other than the applicable functional currency. Contracts are executed with credit worthy banks and are denominated in currencies of major industrial countries. We do not hedge our exposure to the translation of reported results of foreign subsidiaries from local currency to United States dollars.
As of December 30, 2017,28, 2019, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of $15.6$8.9 million, $2.5$10.3 million, $(8.1)$(3.1) million and $(0.9)$(0.2) million, are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Current Hedging Obligations and Noncurrent Hedging Obligations, respectively. As of December 31, 2016,29, 2018, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of $2.8$6.6 million, $0.4$7.2 million, $(45.7)$(5.0) million and $(17.6)$(1.1) million, are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Current Hedging Obligations and Noncurrent Hedging Obligations, respectively.

Gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would be largely offset by gains and losses on the underlying forecasted non-US dollar denominated cash flows.
Commodity Price Risk
We periodically enter into commodity hedging transactions to reduce the impact of changing prices for certain commodities such as copper and aluminum based upon forecasted purchases of such commodities. Qualified hedge transactions are designated as cash flow hedges and the contract terms of commodity hedge instruments generally mirror those of the hedged item, providing a high degree of risk reduction and correlation.

Counterparty Risk
We are exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to various financial agreements, including our interest rate swap agreements, foreign currency exchange contracts and commodity hedging transactions. We manage exposure to counterparty credit risk by limiting our counterparties to major international banks and financial institutions meeting established credit guidelines and continually monitoring their compliance with the credit guidelines. We do not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk. We do not anticipate non-performance by our counterparties, but cannot provide assurances.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The management of Regal Beloit Corporation (the “Company”) is responsible for the accuracy and internal consistency of the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and footnotes contained in this annual report.
The Company's management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company operates under a system of internal accounting controls designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of published financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The internal accounting control system is evaluated for effectiveness by management and is tested, monitored and revised as necessary. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
The Company's management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 30, 2017.28, 2019.

The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Goodwill Valuation - Global Industrial Motors & Commercial Air Moving Reporting Units - Refer to Notes 3 and 5 to the Financial Statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The Company performed an impairment evaluation of the goodwill for the Global Industrial Motors and Commercial Air Moving reporting units by comparing the estimated fair value of each of these reporting units to its carrying value. In order to estimate the fair value of these reporting units, management is required to make significant estimates and assumptions related to discount rates and forecasts of future revenues and Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation & Amortization (“EBITDA”) margins. Changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value, the amount of any goodwill impairment charge, or both. The goodwill balance was $1,501 million as of December 28, 2019, of which $122.3 million and $38.3 million related to the Global Industrial Motors and Commercial Air Moving reporting units, respectively. As of November 2, 2019, the Company’s measurement date, the Company determined that the fair value of each reporting unit exceeded its carrying value and therefore no impairment was recognized. Both the Global Industrial Motors and Commercial Air Moving reporting units exceeded their carrying value by less than 10%.
We identified the impairment evaluation of goodwill for the Global Industrial Motors and Commercial Air Moving reporting units as a critical audit matter because of the inherent subjectivity involved in management’s estimates and assumptions related to discount rates and forecasts of future revenues and EBITDA margins. The audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions related to the selection of the discount rates and forecast of future revenues and EBITDA margins required a high degree of auditor judgement and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the selection of discount rates and forecasts of future revenues and EBITDA margins for the Global Industrial Motors and Commercial Air Moving reporting units included the following, among others:
We tested the effectiveness of controls over management’s goodwill impairment evaluation, including those over the selection of the discount rates and management’s development of forecasts of future revenues and EBITDA margins.
We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s forecasts by comparing the forecasts to (1) historical results, (2) internal communications to management and the Board of Directors, and (3) forecasted information included in analyst and industry reports for the Company and certain of its peer companies.
We evaluated the impact of changes in management’s forecasts from the November 2, 2019, annual measurement date to December 28, 2019.
With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rates by:
Tested the source information underlying management’s determination of the discount rates.
Tested the mathematical accuracy of management’s calculations.
Developed a range of independent estimates and compared those to the discount rates selected by management.
Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Valuation - PTS Trade Name- Refer to Notes 3 and 5 to the Financial Statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
The indefinite-lived intangible asset consists of a trade name associated with the PTS acquisition totaling $121.6 million as of December 28, 2019, which is tested for impairment on an annual basis. The impairment assessment includes a comparison of the estimated fair value of the trade name to its carrying value. In order to determine the fair value of the trade name, management is required to forecast future revenues related to the trade name, as well as assumptions about the discount rate and royalty rate to be used in the evaluation. Changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value, the amount of any impairment charge, or both.
We identified the impairment assessment of the Company’s indefinite-lived trade name as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions management makes related to forecasts of future revenues, the discount rate and royalty rate, in estimating the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets. The audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions related to forecasts of future revenue and the selection of the discount rate and royalty rate for the PTS trade name required a high degree of auditor judgement and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to forecasts of future revenue and the selection of the discount rate and royalty rate for the PTS trade name included the following, among others:
We tested the effectiveness of controls over management’s intangible asset impairment evaluation, including those over management’s development of forecasts of future revenues and the selection of the discount rate and royalty rate.
We evaluated management’s ability to accurately forecast future revenues by comparing actual results to management’s historical forecasts.
We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s forecasts by comparing the forecasts to (1) historical results, (2) internal communications to management and the Board of Directors, and (3) forecasted information included in analyst and industry reports for the Company and certain of its peer companies.
We evaluated the impact of changes in management’s forecasts from the November 2, 2019, annual measurement date to December 28, 2019.
With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the royalty rate by:
Tested the source information underlying management’s determination of the royalty rate.
Tested the mathematical accuracy of management’s calculations.
Compared the royalty rate selected by management to comparable royalty transactions and other publicly available information.
With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rate by:

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s 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 company’s 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 company’s 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.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(1) Nature of Operations
Regal Beloit Corporation (the “Company”) is a United States based multi-national corporation. Effective December 28, 2019, the Company transitioned from 3 operating segments to 4 operating segments to align with the change to its management structure and operating model. The Company reports in threeCompany's 4 operating segments:segments are: the Commercial Systems segment produces fractional to approximately 5 horsepower AC and DC motors, electronic variable speed controls, fans, and blowers for commercial applications; the Industrial Systems segment produces integral motors, generators, alternators and switchgear for industrial applications, along with its principal lines of business in mediumaftermarket parts and large electric motors, power generation products, high-performance drives and controls and capacitors;kits to support such products; the Climate Solutions segment with its principal lines of business inproduces small motors, electronic variable speed controls and air moving products;solutions; and the Power Transmission Solutions segment with its principal lines of business in power transmissionproduces, sells and services belt and chain drives, helical and worm gearing, mounted and unmounted bearings, couplings, modular plastic belts, conveying chains and components, hydraulic pump drives, large open gearing and specialty mechanical products which control motion and torque.products.
(2) Basis of Presentation
The Company operates on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31.31. The fiscal years ended December 28, 2019, December 29, 2018 and December 30, 2017, December 31, 2016, and January 2, 2016 were 52 weeks.
(3) Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. In addition, the Company has joint ventures that are consolidated in accordance with consolidation accounting guidance. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.
Accounting for Highly Inflationary Economies
The Company had a subsidiary in Venezuela using accounting for highly inflationary economies. Currency restrictions enacted by the Venezuelan government impacted the ability of the Company's subsidiary to obtain US dollars in exchange for Venezuelan bolivars fuertes ("Bolivars") at the official foreign exchange rate.
During the first quarter of 2015, the Venezuelan government announced changes to its exchange rate system that included the launch of a new, market-based system known as the SIMADI. The Company adopted the SIMADI rate after its introduction. The SIMADI exchange rate was approximately 193 Venezuelan Bolivars to the US dollar as of April 4, 2015. The adoption of the SIMADI resulted in a $1.5 million pretax devaluation charge included in Operating Expenses during the first quarter 2015.
In late 2015, the Company decided to cease doing business in Venezuela due to the inability of collecting payments on its receivables from certain customers in Venezuela, the difficulties in obtaining local currency and the increased economic uncertainty in that country. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, in connection with the decision to cease doing business in Venezuela, the Company wrote off net assets of $12.8 million.
Use of Estimates
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”), which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company uses estimates in accounting for, among other items, allowance for doubtful accounts; excess and obsolete inventory; share-based compensation; acquisitions; product warranty obligations; pension and post retirement assets and liabilities; derivative fair values; goodwill and other asset impairments; health care reserves; rebates and incentives; litigation claims and contingencies, including environmental matters; and income taxes. The Company accounts for changes to estimates and assumptions when warranted by factually based experience.
Acquisitions
The Company recognizes assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies and contingent consideration at their fair value on the acquisition date. The operating results of the acquired companies are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred, restructuring costs are recognized as post-acquisition expense and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the measurement period are recorded in Provision for Income Taxes.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generally recognizes revenue upon transferfrom the sale of title, which generally occurs upon shipmentelectric motors, electrical motion controls, power generation and power transmission products. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the product passes to the customer. customer or the service is provided and is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for such goods or services.
For a limited number of contracts, the Company recognizes revenue over time in proportion to costs incurred. The pricing of products sold is generally supported by customer purchase orders, and accounts receivable collection is reasonably assured at the time of shipment.assured. Estimated discounts and rebates are recorded as a reduction of gross sales in the same period revenue is recognized. Product returns and credits are estimated and recorded at the time of shipment based upon historical experience. Shipping and handling costs are recorded as revenue when billed to the customers. The costs incurred from shipping are recorded in Cost of Sales and handling costs incurred in connection with selling and distribution activities are recorded in Operating Expenses.
The Company has certain operating leases in the oil and gas industry where revenue is recognized over the term of the lease. The lease revenue is not material for all fiscal periods presented. The related net leased assets were not material at December 30, 2017 or December 31, 2016 and were included in Other Noncurrent Assets.
The Company derives a significant portion of its revenues from several original equipment manufacturing customers. Despite this relative concentration, there were no customers that accounted for more than 10% of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2017,2019, fiscal 20162018 or fiscal 2015.2017.
Nature of Goods and Services
The Company sells products with multiple applications as well as customized products that have a single application such as those manufactured for its OEM’s customers. The Company reports in 4 operating segments: Commercial Systems, Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Power Transmission Solutions. See Note 6 for a description of the different segments.
Nature of Performance Obligations
The Company’s contracts with customers typically consist of purchase orders, invoices and master supply agreements. At contract inception, across all 4 segments, the Company assesses the goods and services promised in its sales arrangements with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service that is distinct. The Company’s primary performance obligations consist of product sales and customized systems/solutions.
Product:
The nature of products varies from segment to segment but across all segments, individual products are generally not integrated and represent separate performance obligations.
Customized systems/solutions:
The Company provides customized systems/solutions which consist of multiple products engineered and designed to specific customer specification, combined or integrated into one combined solution for a specific customer application. The goods are transferred to the customer and revenue is typically recognized over time as the performance obligations are satisfied.
When Performance Obligations are Satisfied
For performance obligations related to substantially all of the Company's product sales, the Company determines that the customer obtains control upon shipment and recognizes revenue accordingly. Once a product has shipped, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. The Company considers control to have transferred upon shipment because the Company has a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, the Company has transferred physical possession of the asset, and the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset.
For a limited number of contracts, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue over time. The Company satisfies its performance obligations over time and the Company uses a cost-based input method to measure progress. In applying the cost-based method of revenue recognition, the Company uses actual costs incurred to date relative to the total estimated costs for the contract in conjunction with the customer's commitment to perform in determining the amount of revenue and cost to recognize. The Company has determined that the cost-based input method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods to the customer.
Payment Terms
The arrangement with the customer states the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price of each product or service purchased. Payment terms vary by customer but typically range from due upon delivery to 120 days after delivery. For contracts recognized at a point in time, revenue and billing typically occur simultaneously. The Company generally has payment terms with its customers of one year or less and has elected the practical expedient applicable to such contracts not to consider the time value of money. For contracts recognized using the cost-based input method, revenue recognized in excess of customer billings and billings in excess of revenue recognized are reviewed to determine the net asset or net liability position and classified as such on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Returns, Refunds and Warranties
The Company’s contracts do not explicitly offer a “general” right of return to its customers (e.g. customers ordered excess products and return unused items). Warranties are classified as either assurance type or service type warranties. A warranty is considered an assurance type warranty if it provides the customer with assurance that the product will function as intended. A warranty that goes above and beyond ensuring basic functionality is considered a service type warranty. The Company generally only offers limited warranties which are considered to be assurance type warranties and are not accounted for as separate performance obligations. Customers generally receive repair or replacement on products that do not function to specification. Estimated product warranties are provided for specific product groups and the Company accrues for estimated future warranty cost in the period in which the sale is recognized. The Company estimates the accrual requirements based on historical warranty loss experience and the cost is included in Cost of Sales.
Volume Rebates
In some cases, the nature of the Company’s contract may give rise to variable consideration including volume based sales incentives. If the customer achieves specific sales targets, they are entitled to rebates. The Company estimates the projected amount of the rebates that will be achieved and recognizes the estimated costs as a reduction to Net Sales as revenue is recognized.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by geographical region for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019 and December 29, 2018, respectively, (in millions):

Practical Expedients and Exemptions
The Company typically expenses incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract, primarily sales commissions, as incurred because the amortization period is expected to be 12 months or less. Contract costs are included in Operating Expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
Due to the short nature of the Company’s contracts, the Company has adopted a practical expedient to not disclose revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations as substantially all of its contracts have original terms of 12 months or less.
The Company typically does not include in its transaction price any amounts collected from customers for sales taxes.
The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment activities and expense the costs as incurred as part of Cost of Sales.
Research and Development
The Company performs research and development activities relating to new product development and the improvement of current products. The Company's research and development expenses consist primarily of costs for: (i) salaries and related personnel expenses; (ii) the design and development of new energy efficient products and enhancements; (iii) quality assurance and testing; and (iv) other related overhead. The Company's research and development efforts tend to be targeted toward developing new products that would allow it to gain additional market share, whether in new or existing segments. While these costs make up an insignificant portion of operating expenses in the Power Transmission Solutions segment, they are more substantial in the Climate Solutions, and Commercial Systems and Industrial Systems segments. In particular, a large driver of research and development efforts in the Climate Solutions, and Commercial Systems and Industrial Systems segments is energy efficiency.
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. For fiscal 2017, 20162019, 2018 and 2015,2017, research and development costs were $22.5 million, $29.3 million and $29.9 million, $29.5 million and $30.1 million, respectively. Research and development costs are recorded in Operating Expenses.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments which are readily convertible to cash, present insignificant risk of changes in value due to interest rate fluctuations and have original or purchased maturities of three months or less.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents. The Company has material deposits with global financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of its financial institutions and monitors the amount of exposure.
Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to the large number of customers and their dispersion across many geographic areas. The Company monitors credit risk associated with its trade receivables.
Investments
Investments include term deposits which have original maturities of greater than three months and remaining maturities of less than one year. The fair value of term deposits approximates their carrying value. These investments are included in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Trade Receivables
Trade receivables are stated at estimated net realizable value. Trade receivables are comprised of balances due from customers, net of estimated allowances. In estimating losses inherent in trade receivables, the Company uses historical loss experiences and applies them to a related aging analysis. Determination of the proper level of allowances requires management to exercise significant judgment about the timing, frequency and severity of losses. The allowances for doubtful accounts take into consideration numerous quantitative and qualitative factors, including historical loss experience, collection experience, delinquency trends and economic conditions.
In circumstances where the Company is aware of a specific customer's inability to meet its obligation, a specific reserve is recorded against amounts receivable to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount reasonably expected to be collected. Additions to the allowances for doubtful accounts are maintained through adjustments to the provision for doubtful accounts, which are charged to Operating Expenses in the current period; amounts determined to be uncollectable are charged directly against the allowances, while amounts recovered on previously charged-off accounts benefit current period earnings.
Inventories
The major classes of inventory at year end are as follows:
|
| | | |
| | December 28, 2019 | | December 29, 2018 |
| Raw Material and Work in Process | 48.0% | | 45.0% |

Inventories are stated at cost, which is not in excess of market. Cost for approximately 52%53.0% of the Company's inventory at as of December 30, 201728, 2019 and 55% at 54.0% as of December 31, 201629, 2018 was determined using the last-in, first-out method. If all inventories were valued on the first-in, first-out method, they would have increased by $46.062.0 million and $43.765.5 million as of December 30, 201728, 2019 and December 31, 201629, 2018, respectively. Material, labor and factory overhead costs are included in the inventories.
The Company reviews inventories for excess and obsolete products or components. Based on an analysis of historical usage and management's evaluation of estimated future demand, market conditions and alternative uses for possible excess or obsolete parts, the Company records an excess and obsolete reserve.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of plant and equipment is provided principally on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives (3 to 50 years) of the depreciable assets. Accelerated methods are used for income tax purposes.
Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred. Expenditures which extend the useful lives of existing equipment are capitalized and depreciated.
Upon retirement or disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized. Leasehold improvements are capitalized and amortized over the lesser of the life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset.

For fiscal 2019, the Company recognized $5.1 million of asset impairments related to the transfer of assets to held for sale in the first quarter of 2019. For fiscal 2018, the Company recognized a fixed asset impairment of $1.1 million related to its decision to exit the hermetic climate business.
Goodwill
The Company evaluates the carrying amount of goodwill annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the goodwill might be impaired. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include significant underperformance relative to historical or forecasted operating results, a significant decrease in the market value of an asset or significant negative industry or economic trends. For goodwill, the Company may perform a qualitative test 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 quantitative goodwill impairment test. Based on prior goodwillThe Company performed quantitative impairment testing the Company determined the performance of the quantitative impairment test was required for all reporting units in 2017.2019. The Company performs the required annual goodwill impairment testtesting as of the end of the October fiscal month.
The Company uses a weighting of the market approach and the income approach (discounted cash flow method) in testing goodwill for impairment. In the market approach, the Company applies performance multiples from comparable public companies, adjusted for relative risk, profitability, and growth considerations, to the reporting units to estimate fair value. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow method used to estimate fair value include discount rates, revenue and operating incomeEBITDA margin projections and terminal value rates because such assumptions are the most sensitive and susceptible to change as they require significant management judgment. Discount rates are determined by using market and industry data as well as Company-specific risk factors for each reporting unit. The discount rate utilized for each reporting unit is indicative of the return an investor would expect to
receive for investing in such a business. Terminal value rate determination follows common methodology of capturing the present value of perpetual cash flow estimates beyond the last projected period assuming a constant discount rate and long-term growth rates.
TheIn conjunction with the change from 3 operating segments to 4 operating segments, the Company evaluated and changed its reporting unit structure. For fiscal 2019 the calculated fair values for three of the Company's 2017 impairment testing exceededreporting units did not exceed the carrying valuesvalue by at least 10% for all: the global industrial motors reporting unit, the commercial air moving reporting unit and the power systems switch reporting unit. The global industrial motors reporting unit had goodwill of its$122.3 million as of December 28, 2019 and is included in the Company's Industrial Systems segment. The commercial air moving reporting units.unit had goodwill of $38.3 million as of December 28, 2019 and is included in the Company's Commercial Systems segment. The power systems switch reporting unit had goodwill of $15.6 million as of December 28, 2019 and is included in the Company's Industrial Systems segment. Some of the key considerations used in the Company's impairment testing included (i) market pricing of guideline publicly traded companies (ii) cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate, and (iii) recent historical and projected performanceoperating results of the subject reporting unit. There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in goodwill impairment testing. A change to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment.impairment that could be material.
On July 31, 2018, the Company received notification from a customer of its hermetic climate business that it would wind down operations. The calculated fair valueshermetic climate business accounted for sales of $19.5 million and $52.6 million for the Company's 2016 impairment testing exceededfiscal years ended 2019 and 2018, respectively. As a result of this notification, the carrying valuesCompany accelerated its plans to exit this business. The Company recognized exit and exit related charges of the reporting units for all of the Company's reporting units.$34.9 million during fiscal 2018. The excess exceeded 10% of the carrying value for all reporting units except the PTS reporting unit, which is a combination of the acquired PTS business from Emerson Electric and the Company's legacy PTS business. Throughout 2016, the Company's PTS reporting unit was impacted by declines in the oil and gas, distribution, and agricultural end-markets. The PTS reporting unit had goodwill of $570.8 million as of December 31, 2016. The Company's impairment test indicated the reporting unit’s implied fair value exceeded its book value by approximately 2%. Some of the key considerations used in the Company's impairment testingcharges included (i) market pricing of guideline publicly traded companies (ii) cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate, and (iii) recent historical and projected performance of the subject reporting unit. There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in goodwill impairment testing. A changeof $9.5 million, customer relationship intangible asset impairment of $5.5 million, technology intangible asset impairment of $2.1 million and fixed asset impairment of $1.1 million. In addition to any of the assumptions could leadimpairments, the Company took charges on accounts receivable and inventory along with recognizing other expenses related to a future impairment.exiting the business.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight line method. The Company evaluates amortizing intangibles whenever events or circumstances have occurred that may indicate that carrying values may not be recoverable. If an indicator is present, the Company evaluates carrying values as compared to undiscounted estimated future cash flows. If such estimated future cash flows are less than carrying value, an impairment would be recognized. The Company recorded impairments for its customer relationship intangible asset of $4.9 million in fiscal 2019 as the result of transferring to assets held for sale. In fiscal 2018, the Company recorded impairments for its customer relationship intangible asset of $5.5 million and technology intangible asset of $2.1 million due to the winding down of the hermetic climate business described above.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized. The Company evaluates the carrying amount of indefinite-lived intangible assets annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. The Company performs the required annual impairment testtesting as of the end of the October fiscal month.

There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in indefinite-lived intangible asset testing. A change to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment.impairment that could be material.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment and amortizing intangible assets (collectively, "long-lived assets") whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable through future cash flows. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include a significant decrease in the market value of an asset or significant negative or economic trends. For long-lived assets, the Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the primary asset to estimate recoverability of the asset group. If the asset is not recoverable, the asset is written down to fair value. The Company concluded it did not have any impairmentshad an impairment of $5.1 million in long-lived assets in 2017.fiscal 2019 due to the transfer of assets to held for sale. In fiscal 2018, there were $1.1 million in impairments in long-lived assets due to the winding down of the hermetic climate business described above.
Earnings Per Share
Diluted earnings per share is computed based upon earnings applicable to common shares divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period adjusted for the effect of other dilutive securities. Share based compensation awards for common shares where the exercise price was above the market price have been excluded from the calculation of the effect of dilutive securities shown below; the amount of these shares were 0.50.4 million in 2017, 1.3fiscal 2019, 0.6 million in 2016fiscal 2018 and 0.70.5 million in 2015.fiscal 2017.

Retirement and Post Retirement Plans
The Company's domestic employeesassociates are covered by defined contribution plans and approximately half of the Company's domestic employeesassociates are covered by defined benefit pension plans. The majority of the defined benefit pension plans covering the Company's domestic employeesassociates have been closed to new employeesassociates and frozen for existing employees.associates. Certain employeesassociates are covered by a post retirement health care plan. Most of the Company's foreign employeesassociates are covered by government sponsored plans in the countries in which they are employed. The Company's obligations under its defined benefit pension and other post retirement plans are determined with the assistance of actuarial firms. The actuaries, under management's direction, make certain assumptions regarding such factors as withdrawal rates and mortality rates. The actuaries also provide information and recommendations from which management makes further assumptions on such factors as the long-term expected rate of return on plan assets, the discount rate on benefit obligations and where applicable, the rate of annual compensation increases and health care cost trend rates.
Based upon the assumptions made, the investments made by the plans, overall conditions and movement in financial markets, life-spans of benefit recipients and other factors, annual expenses and recorded assets or liabilities of these defined benefit plans may change significantly from year to year.
BeginningThe service cost component of the Company's net periodic benefit cost is included in 2016, the Company changed the method used to estimate the serviceCost of Sales and interest costOperating Expenses. All other components of the net periodic pension and other post retirement benefit costs. The new method usescosts are included in Other (Income) Expenses, net on the spot yield curve approach to estimate the service and interest costs by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used to determine the benefit obligations to relevant projected cash outflows. The change will not affect the measurementCompany's Consolidated Statements of the total benefit obligations as the change in service and interest costs is offset in the actuarial gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income. The methodology of selecting a discount rate that matches each plan's cash flows to that of a theoretical bond portfolio yield curve will continue to be used to value the benefit obligation at the end of each year. The Company changed to the new method to provide a more precise measure of interest and service costs by improving the correlation between the projected benefit cash flows and the discrete spot yield curve rates. The Company has accounted for this change as a change in estimate prospectively and it resulted in a $2.9 million reduction in expense for fiscal 2016 as compared to the previous method.Income.
Derivative Financial Instruments
Derivative instruments are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Any fair value changes are recorded in Net Income or Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss ("AOCI") as determined under accounting guidance that establishes criteria for designation and effectiveness of the hedging relationships.
The Company uses derivative instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in certain raw material commodity pricing, fluctuations in the cost of forecasted foreign currency transactions, and variability in interest rate exposure on floating rate borrowings. The majority of derivative instruments have been designated as cash flow hedges (see also Note 13 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements)13).
Income Taxes
The Company operates in numerous taxing jurisdictions and is subject to regular examinations by various US federal, state and foreign jurisdictions for various tax periods. The Company's income tax positions are based on research and interpretations of the income tax laws and rulings in each of the jurisdictions in which it does business. Due to the subjectivity of interpretations of laws and rulings in each jurisdiction, the differences and interplay in tax laws between those jurisdictions as well as the inherent uncertainty in estimating the final resolution of complex tax audit matters, estimates of income tax liabilities may differ from actual payments or assessments.
Foreign Currency Translation
For those operations using a functional currency other than the US dollar, assets and liabilities are translated into US dollars at year-end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses are translated at weighted-average exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of Shareholders' Equity.
Product Warranty Reserves
The Company maintains reserves for product warranty to cover the stated warranty periods for its products. Such reserves are established based on an evaluation of historical warranty experience and specific significant warranty matters when they become known and can reasonably be estimated.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss
Foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments designated as hedges and pension and post retirement liability adjustments are included in Shareholders' Equity under AOCI. As a result of adopting ASU 2018-02 on April 1, 2018 on a prospective basis, the Company reclassified $6.6 million of stranded tax benefits related to Pension and Post Retirement Benefits and $2.0 million of stranded tax expense related to Hedging Activities to Retained Earnings. This resulted in a $4.6 million increase in Retained Earnings.

Legal Claims and Contingent Liabilities
The Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and regulatory matters, the outcomes of which are subject to significant uncertainty and will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Management conducts regular reviews, including updates from legal counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. The Company records expenses and liabilities when the Company believes that an obligation of the Company or a subsidiary on a specific matter is probable and there is a basis to reasonably estimate the value of the obligation, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise in judgment. This methodology is used for legal claims that are filed against the Company or a subsidiary from time to time. The uncertainty that is associated with such matters frequently requires adjustments to the liabilities previously recorded.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The fair values of cash equivalents, term deposits, trade receivables and accounts payable approximate their carrying values due to the short period of time to maturity. The fair value of debt is estimated using discounted cash flows based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities and credit ratings as further described in Note 7 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.7. The fair value of pension assets and derivative instruments is determined based on the methods disclosed in Notes 8 and 14 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.13.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In August 2017,2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB"("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20). The ASU addresses modifications to the disclosure requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. Under ASU 2018-14 the disclosure requirements that can be removed are amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income expected to be recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year, amount and timing of plan assets expected to be returned to the employer, and the effects of a one-percentage-point change in assumed health care cost trend rates on the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of net periodic benefit costs and benefit obligations for postretirement health care benefits. Additional disclosures are required for the weighted -average interest crediting rates for cash balance plans and other plans with promised interest crediting rates and an explanation for significant gains and losses related to the changes in the benefit obligation for the period. If a defined benefit pension plan has a projected benefit obligation greater than plan assets the projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets should be disclosed. This additional disclosure is also required when comparing the accumulated benefit obligation to plan assets. This ASU becomes effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020 on a retrospective basis for all years presented. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance, but does not anticipate a material impact on the financial statement disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The ASU focuses on updates around disclosures of Level 3 fair value measurements and it presents modifications to current disclosure requirements. The additional requirements under this ASU include disclosure for the changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income ("OCI") held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs. The ASU is also eliminating the disclosure requirement for the amount and reason for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurement, valuation processes for Level 3 measurements, and policy for timing of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, the ASU modifies the disclosure requirements for investments that are valued based on net asset value. The amendments clarify that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted for any eliminated or modified disclosures upon issuance of this ASU. The ASU requires prospective application for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the year of adoption for changes in unrealized gains and losses included in OCI, the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty. All other amendments described in this ASU must be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance, but does not anticipate a material impact on the financial statement disclosures.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic 326). The focus of this ASU is to require businesses to adjust their allowance for lifetime expected credit losses rather than incurred losses. It is believed that the change will result in more timely recognition of such losses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein. Adoption of the standard will be by a modified retrospective approach allowing a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of Retained Earnings. The Company anticipates the adoption of the new standard will not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Adopted Accounting Standards
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The amendments in this update better align an entity’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company plans to adopt this pronouncement for fiscal years beginning December 30, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Stock Compensation - Scope of Modification Accounting. The ASU amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements. The ASU provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 718. Specifically, an entity would not apply modification accounting if the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted and prospective application is required. The Company plans to adopt this pronouncement for fiscal years beginning December 31, 2017 and will consider the impact that this standard may have on future share based award changes, should they occur.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits: Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. The ASU amends current guidance to require employers that present a measure of operating income in their statement of income to include only the service cost component of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in operating expenses (together with other employee compensation costs). The other components of net benefit cost, including amortization of prior service cost/credit, and settlement and curtailment effects, are to be included in nonoperating expenses. Employers that do not present a measure of operating income are required to include the service cost component in the same line item as other employee compensation costs. The ASU also stipulates that only the service cost component of net benefit cost is eligible for capitalization. The changes, which respond to input from financial statement users, are intended to classify costs according to their natures, and better align the effect of defined benefit plans on operating income with International Financial Reporting Standards. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. The ASU will impact the components of income before taxes but will not impact the amount of income before taxes. The adoption ofadopted this ASU is not expected to have aas of December 30, 2018, the beginning of fiscal 2019, with no material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. Upon the Company's retrospective adoption of this ASU, post retirement benefit costs, excluding the service cost component, will be reflected in Other Expense (Income) in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Currently, all components of benefit costs are reported in Cost of Sales and Operating Expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income.Financial Statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. Leases (Topic 842). The core principle of ASU 2016-02216-02 is that an entity should recognize on its balance sheetright of use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities arising from a lease.an operating lease on its Balance Sheet. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to make lease payments, (thethe lease liability)liability, and a right-of-useROU asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as a finance or operating lease. This new accountingIn July 2018, the FASB amended its guidance is effective forby issuing ASU 2018-11 to provide an additional transition method, allowing a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings during the period of adoption. The Company adopted the standard as of December 30, 2018, the beginning of fiscal years beginning after December 15, 20182019, under athe modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company has identified a six step processmethod. Comparative periods prior to successfully implement the new Lease standard: Form a task force to become proficient and take the lead on understanding and implementing the new Lease standard; Update lease inventories; Decide on transition method; Review legal agreements and debt covenants; Consider IT needs; Discuss with stakeholders. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 willthe standard have on its consolidated financial statements. not been adjusted given the effect to the standard.
The Company has identified a task force to takeelected the lead in implementingpackage of practical expedients permitted under the relief package within the new Lease standard, which allows the Company to carryforward the historical lease accounting of expired or existing leases with respect to lease identification, lease classification and has startedaccounting treatment for initial direct costs as of the process of building an inventory of leases.adoption date. The Company plansalso elected the practical expedient related to adopt this pronouncement for its fiscal year beginning December 31, 2018.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), a comprehensive new revenue recognition standard that supersedes current revenue recognition requirements. This update requireslease versus nonlease components, allowing the Company to recognize revenue at amounts that reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services at the timelease and nonlease components as a single lease.
Adoption of transfer. The new standard will also require additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments made in applying the revenue guidance, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. The Company will adopt ASU No. 2014-09 (and related updates) at the beginning of its 2018 fiscal year on December 31, 2017. Accordingly, the Company will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, the new model requires financial statement preparers to apply the following five steps:
Step 1: Identify the contract with a customer
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
Step 3: Determine the transaction price
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
Step 5: Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation
The standard allows the option of using either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach for the adoption of the standard. The Company has decided to adopt this accounting standard update using the modified retrospective method.
The Company completed a comprehensive project plan that included a global cross-functional team of representatives to conduct an assessment of Topic 606 and its potential impacts on the Company. The Company identified and completed a four-step process to implement the new revenue standard - data gathering, assessment, solution development, and solution implementation.
The majority of the Company’s sales are recognized when products are shipped from its manufacturing or distribution facilities to customers. For a limited number of contracts, the Company recognizes revenue over time in proportion to costs incurred. Under the new standard resulted in the Company will continue to recognize revenue at a single Point-in-Time when control is transferred to the
customer. In addition, for those contracts in which the Company currently recognizes revenue over time, the cost-to-cost measure of progress continues to best depict the transfer of control of assets to the customer, which occurs as the Company incurs costs.
In addition, the Company's performance obligations under the new standard are not materially different from the existing standard. The accounting for the estimate of variable consideration (i.e. Warranties, Rebates, and Returns) under the new standard is not materially different compared to the Company's current practice.
Based upon the resultsrecording of the implementation plan, the Company does not expect the new revenue standard to have a material impact on the Company’s patternright-of-use assets and lease liabilities of revenue recognition, operating revenue, results$93.0 million as of operations, or financial position. In reaching this conclusion, the Company evaluated its different contracting practices including Master Agreements and Purchase Orders. The project plan included analyzing the standard’s impact on the Company’s revenue streams and above mentioned contracting practices.
The Company has determined that as a result of applying the modified retrospective method, theDecember 30, 2018. No cumulative effect adjustment to retained earningsRetained Earnings was recognized upon adoption of the new standard. The standard did not materially impact the Company's Consolidated Net Income and had no impact on Cash Flows. See Note 9 for additional disclosures.

(8) Retirement and Post Retirement Health Care Plans
Retirement Plans
The Company's domestic employeesassociates are participants in defined benefit pension plans and/or defined contribution plans. The majority of the Company's defined benefit pension plans covering the Company's domestic employeesassociates have been closed to new employeesassociates and frozen for existing employees.associates. Most foreign employeesassociates are covered by government sponsored plans in the countries in which they are employed. The defined contribution plans provide for Company contributions based, depending on the plan, upon one or more of participant contributions, service and profits. Company contributions to domestic defined contribution plans totaled $8.9 million, $10.1 million and $9.3 million $8.7 million,in fiscal 2019, fiscal 2018 and $9.9 million infiscal 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Company contributions to non-US defined contribution plans were $10.6 million, $11.8 million and $9.4 million $10.4 millionin fiscal 2019, fiscal 2018 and $9.2 million infiscal 2017, 2016, and 2015, respectively.
Beginning in 2016, the Company changed the method used to estimate the service and interest cost components of the net periodic pension and other post retirement benefit costs. The new method uses the spot yield curve approach to estimate the service and interest costs by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used to determine the benefit obligations to relevant projected cash outflows. The change will not affect the measurement of the total benefit obligations as the change in service and interest costs is offset in the actuarial gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income. The methodology of selecting a discount rate that matches each plan's cash flows to that of a theoretical bond portfolio yield curve will continue to be used to value the benefit obligation at the end of each year. The Company changed to the new method to provide a more precise measure of interest and service costs by improving the correlation between the projected benefit cash flows and the discrete spot yield curve rates. The Company has accounted for this change as a change in estimate prospectively and it resulted in a $2.9 million reduction in expense for fiscal 2016 as compared to the previous method.
Benefits provided under defined benefit pension plans are based, depending on the plan, on employees'associates' average earnings and years of credited service, or a benefit multiplier times years of service. Funding of these qualified defined benefit pension plans is in accordance with federal laws and regulations. The actuarial valuation measurement date for pension plans is the calendar year end of each year.
The Company's target allocation, target return and actual weighted-average asset allocation by asset category are as follows:
|
| | | | | | | |
| | Target | | Actual Allocation |
| | Allocation | | Return | | 2019 | | 2018 |
| Equity Investments | 73.0% | | 6.6 - 8.0% | | 70.0% | | 67.5% |
| Fixed Income | 22.0% | | 2.7 - 5.5% | | 25.0% | | 27.4% |
| Other | 5.0% | | 5.2% | | 5.0% | | 5.1% |
| Total | 100.0% | | 7.0% | | 100.0% | | 100.0% |

| Equity Investments | 76 | % | | 6.3 - 7.5 % |
| | 71 | % | | 70 | % |
| Fixed Income | 19 | % | | 3.6 - 4.5% |

| Total | 100 | % | | 6.9 | % | | 100 | % | | 100 | % |
The Company's investment strategy for its defined benefit pension plans is to achieve moderately aggressive growth, earning a long-term rate of return sufficient to allow the plans to reach fully funded status. Accordingly, allocation targets have been established to fit this strategy, with a heavier long-term weighting of investments in equity securities. The long-term rate of return assumptions consider historic returns and volatilities adjusted for changes in overall economic conditions that may affect future returns and a weighting of each investment class.

Pension Assets
The Company classifies the pension plan investments into Level 1, which refers to securities valued using quoted prices from active markets for identical assets, Level 2, which refers to securities not traded on an active market but for which observable market inputs are readily available, and Level 3, which refers to securities valued based on significant unobservable inputs. Common stocks and mutual funds are valued at the unadjusted quoted market prices for the securities. Real estate fund values are determined using model-based techniques that include relative value analysis and discounted cash flow techniques. Certain common collective trust funds and limited partnership interests are valued based on the net asset value ("NAV") as provided by the administrator of the fund as a practical expedient to estimate fair value. The NAV is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities, and then divided by the number of shares outstanding. Investments in units of short-term investment funds, comprised of cash and money market funds, are valued at their respective NAVs as reported by the funds daily.

The Northern Trust Collective S&P 500 Index Fund seeks to provide investment results that approximate the overall performance of the common stocks in that index. The Northern Trust Collective Aggregate Bond Index Fund seeks to provide investment results that approximate the overall performance of the Barclays Capital US Aggregate Index by investing primarily, but not exclusively, in securities that comprise that index. The American Century Non-US Growth Fund is broadly invested in a diversified portfolio of non-US stocks. The common collective trust funds are available for immediate redemption. The global emerging markets fund limited partnership interest is an investment in the Vontobel Global Emerging Markets Fund, which seeks to provide capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio consisting primarily of equity based securities. The global emerging markets fund limited partnership interest can be redeemed on a monthly basis with immediate payment.
The Level 3 assets noted below represent investments in real estate funds managed by a major US insurance company and a global emerging markets fund limited partnership. Estimated values provided by fund management approximate the cost of the investments. In determining the reasonableness of the methodology used to value the Level 3 investments, the Company evaluates a variety of factors including reviews of economic conditions, industry and market developments, and overall credit ratings. The real estate fund can be redeemed on a quarterly basis and paid within two weeks of the request for redemption.

The objective of the discount rate assumption is to reflect the rate at which the pension benefits could be effectively settled. In making the determination, the Company takes into account the timing and amount of benefits that would be available under the plans. The methodology for selecting the discount rate was to match the plan's cash flows to that of a theoretical bond portfolio yield curve.
Certain of the Company's defined benefit pension plan obligations are based on years of service rather than on projected compensation percentage increases. For those plans that use compensation increases in the calculation of benefit obligations and net periodic pension cost, the Company used an assumed rate of compensation increase of 3.0% for the fiscal years ended December 30, 201728, 2019 and December 31, 201629, 2018.

The health care cost trend rate for fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, is 6.8%, 7.6% and 8.0% for pre-65 participants and 5.1%, 5.3% and 5.4% for post-65 participants, decreasing to 4.5% for all years in 2026. Thefiscal 2026, the year that the health care cost trend rate for 2017 is 7.0% for pre-65 participants and 5.4% for post-65 participants, decreasing to 4.5% in 2025.reaches the assumed ultimate rate. A one percentage point change in the health care cost trend rate assumption would have a $0.3 million impact on the benefit obligation and an immaterial impact on both the accumulated post retirement benefits expense.benefit obligation and on the net periodic post retirement health care benefit cost.
The Company contributed $0.9$0.4 million and $1.2$0.6 million to the post retirement health care plan in 2017fiscal 2019 and 2016,fiscal 2018, respectively. The Company estimates that in 2018fiscal 2020 it will make contributions of $0.9$0.5 million to the post retirement health care plan.

(9) Leases
The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses/distribution centers, office space, machinery, equipment, IT assets, and vehicles. If the contract provides the Company the right to substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset, it is considered to be or contain a lease. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the expected lease term.
As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated based upon the sovereign treasury rate for the currency in which the lease liability is denominated when the Company takes possession of the leased asset, adjusted for various factors, such as term and internal credit spread. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentive and initial direct costs incurred.
Leases entered into may include one or more options to renew. The renewal terms can extend the lease term from one to twenty-five years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's sole discretion. Renewal option periods are included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability when the exercise is reasonably certain to occur. Some leases include options to terminate the lease upon breach of contract and are remeasured at that point in time.
The depreciable life of leased assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.
Some of the Company's lease agreements include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation or are based on an index rate. These increases are reflected as variable lease payments and are included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Operating leases are included in the following asset and liability accounts on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet: Operating Lease Assets, Current Operating Lease Liabilities and Noncurrent Operating Lease Liabilities. ROU assets and liabilities arising from finance leases are included in the following asset and liability accounts on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet: Net Property, Plant and Equipment, Current Maturities of Long-Term Debt and Long-Term Debt.

Performance Share Units
Performance share unit awards ("PSU"PSUs") awards consist of shares or the rights to shares of the Company's stock which are awarded to employeesassociates of the Company. These shares are payable upon the determination that the Company achieved certain established performance targets and can range from 0% to 200% of the targeted payout based on the actual results. PSUs have a performance period of 3 years. andyears, vest three years from the grant date.date and are issued at a performance target of 100%. The PSUs have performance criteria based on a return on invested capital metric or they have performance criteria using returns relative to the Company's peer group. As set forth in the individual grant agreements, acceleration of vesting may occur under a change in control, death or disability. There are no voting rights with these instruments until vesting occurs and a share of stock is issued. Some of the PSU awards are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation method as of the grant date while others are valued using the closing market price less net present value of dividends as of the grant date depending on the performance criteria for the award.
The assumptions used in the Company's Monte Carlo simulation related to grants for performance share units were as follows:

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Act”) was signed into law revising the US corporate income tax. Changes include, but are not limited to, a corporate tax rate decrease from 35% to 21% effective for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017, the elimination of certain deductions and imposing a mandatory one-time tax on accumulated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The primary impacts of the Act reflected in the consolidated financial statements relate to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities resulting from the change in the corporate tax rate; a one-time mandatory transition tax on undistributed earnings of foreign affiliates; and deferred taxes in connection with a change in the Company’s intent to permanently reinvest the historical undistributed earnings of its foreign affiliates. The SEC provided guidance that allows the Company to record provisional amounts if the accounting assessment is incomplete for impacts of the Act, with the requirement that the accounting be finalized in a period not to exceed one year from the date of enactment. As of December 30, 2017, the Company has not completed the accounting for the tax effects of the Act. Therefore, the Company has recorded provisional amounts for
certain effects of the Act. These estimates may be impacted by the need for further analysis and future clarification and guidance regarding available tax accounting methods and elections, earnings and profits computations and state conformity to federal changes. The Act also creates a new requirement that certain income earned by controlled foreign corporations must be included currently in gross income of the controlled foreign corporations’ US shareholder. Due to the complexity of the new Global Intangible Low Taxed Income tax rules, the Company is currently evaluating this provision of the Act and its application under the applicable accounting guidance. Therefore, the Company has not recognized any provisional amounts for this provision of the Act in its consolidated financial statements.
The Company recorded a net $1.0 million reduction in tax expense in the fourth quarter of 2017, the period in which the legislation was enacted. The provisional benefit recognized related to the remeasurement of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse was $51.0 million. The provisional expense recognized related to the one-time tax on the mandatory deemed repatriation of foreign earnings was $40.0 million of which the Company will elect to pay the one-time tax over a period of eight years. The Company also recognized a provisional expense of $10.0 million for local withholding taxes on foreign earnings not deemed permanently reinvested. Additional analysis of historical foreign earnings is necessary to finalize the tax impact of the Act and any subsequent adjustment to these amounts will be recorded as current tax expense in the quarter of 2018 in which the analysis is complete.
On February 13, 2018 the Internal Revenue Service issued Revenue Proclamation 2018-17 modifying existing procedures for changing the annual accounting period of certain foreign corporations whose US shareholders are subject to the new mandatory deemed repatriation of deferred foreign earnings. The Company is currently analyzing the impact of Revenue Proclamation 2018-17 and anticipates the impact to tax expense to be between $4.0 million to $5.0 million. As the Revenue Proclamation was issued after the Company’s fiscal year end, the current consolidated financial statements do not reflect this impact.
A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate and the effective tax rate reflected in the consolidated statements of income follows:

Realization of the net deferred income tax assets is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income prior to their expiration. Although realization is not assured, management believes it is more-likely-than-not that the net deferred income tax assets will be realized. The amount of the net deferred income tax assets considered realizable, however, could change in the near term if future taxable income during the carryforward period fluctuates.
The Company has been granted tax holidays for some of its Chinese subsidiaries. TheseSome of these tax holidays expired in 2019 and others will expire in 2020 and are renewable2020.

The Act includedCompany continues to treat approximately $123.2 million of earnings from certain foreign entities as permanently reinvested and has not recorded a mandatory one-time tax on all accumulated earnings of foreign subsidiaries, and as a result, all previously unremitted earnings for which no USdeferred tax liability had been accrued have now been subject to US tax. The Company recognized a provisional one-time tax of $40.0 million and a provisional expense of $10.0 million for the local withholding taxes of approximately $19.1 million on foreign earnings not deemed permanently reinvested. As a result, earnings in foreign jurisdictions are available for distribution without incremental US tax cost.those earnings.
(11)(12) Contingencies
One of the Company's subsidiaries that it acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units manufactured and sold in high volumes by a third party. These ventilation units are subject to product safety requirements and other potential regulation of their performance by government agencies such as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”). The claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. The Company has recorded an estimated liability for incurred claims. Based on the current facts, the Company cannot assure that these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its subsidiary's financial condition. The Company's subsidiary cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these claims, the nature or extent of any CPSC or other remedial actions, if any, that the Company's subsidiary may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field, or the costs that may be incurred, some of which could be significant.
The Company is, from time to time, party to litigation and other legal or regulatory proceedings that arise in the normal course of its business operations and the outcomes of which are subject to significant uncertainty, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, intellectual property, employment and other litigation matters. The Company's products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject the Company to claims that the use of its products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. Many of these matters will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Management conducts regular reviews, including updates from legal counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise in judgment. The Company accrues for exposures in amounts that it believes are adequate, and the Company does not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit individually or collectively will have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company recognizes the cost associated with its standard warranty on its products at the time of sale. The amount recognized is based on historical experience. The following is a reconciliation of the changes in accrued warranty costs for 2017fiscal 2019 and 2016fiscal 2018 (in millions):

The Company does not anticipate non-performance by its counterparties, but cannot provide assurances.
The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(14) 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 inputs used to measure fair value are classified 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 Company uses the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table sets forth the Company's financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 30, 201728, 2019 and December 31, 201629, 2018, respectively (in millions):
