We feel that our associates are our most valuable assets and consider our employeeassociate relations to be very good. We take Our objective is to create a high-performing organization by attracting and retaining high-quality, diverse talent and creating an environment in which all associates have the opportunity to reach their full potential.
The core goal of our performance management process is to develop and maintain a high-performing organization that is positioned to meet our business objectives. Creating a high-performing organization requires associates and managers to exhibit transparency in their day-to-day interactions, and use data to drive decision-making and accountability. Our performance management process focuses on enabling associates and managers to gain alignment through:
•a structured annual goal-setting process where managers and associates work collaboratively to develop specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time bound (SMART) goals that align with our overarching business objectives and our company values;
•clear, organization-wide expectations that managers and associates monitor progress toward completion of their SMART goals with regular coaching sessions and periodic evaluations; and
•an annual employee surveyperformance assessment that provides a direct link between the associate’s pay and in fiscal 2018, 96%performance.
In addition to our focus on performance, we also have a strong commitment to our company values of integrity, responsibility, diversity and inclusion, customer success, innovation with purpose, continuous improvement, performance, and a passion to win, all with a sense of urgency. We regularly promote these values from the top down. In addition to instilling our corporate values as a key part of associate life, we promote a commitment to ethics and compliance among our workforce through our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (our "Code"). In 2021, 94.5% of our global workforce (including employees, tooktemporary employees and contractors), completed training on our Code during our annual training period. Our annual training period for 2021 occurred before the surveyRexnord and 88%Automation Solutions transactions closed during the fourth quarter, so the new associates who joined the Company as part of respondents answered favorablythose transactions are not included in our data.
As mentioned above, diversity and inclusion are rooted in our company values. We believe that we are at our best when we bring to bear the unique perspectives, experiences, backgrounds and ideas of our associates. We seek a workforce that reflects the communities in which we operate, and strive to create diverse, equal and inclusive workplaces where all of our associates have the opportunity to achieve their full potential. In 2021, as a sign of our commitment to this goal, we joined the CEO Action for Diversity and Inclusion, which is the largest CEO-driven organization committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace, and also signed the National Association of Manufacturers Pledge for Action to cement our commitment to advancing justice, equality and opportunity for all people of color.
We are also committed to improving the health and well-being of our associates. Our US wellness program was established in 2008 and is continuously evolving to better educate, motivate and reward our associates for maintaining and achieving healthy measures. During our wellness plan year running from October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2021, 52% of our US associates
12
participated in on-site biometric screening that provides them with key metrics such as BMI, blood pressure, and triglyceride, cholesterol and blood glucose levels. This represents an increase of 17% compared with our prior wellness plan year.
As a company, we believe that our value of responsibility requires community engagement, and we encourage our associates to share in our commitment to the question "Do you enjoy working at Regal?".communities where we operate. We have an established charitable foundation, which is governed by an advisory board comprised of our associates. In 2021, the Company and the Company's Charitable Foundation contributed $1,083,100 to charitable organizations, up from $570,481 in 2020. In 2021, the Charitable Foundation realigned its giving philosophy to support charitable organizations in more of the communities where our associates live and work globally. Whereas the Charitable Foundation previously focused primarily on supporting charitable organizations in the US, the amount we contributed internationally in 2021 (predominately in Mexico given the high concentration of our associates there) represented approximately 40% of our overall contributions.

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.
Risks Relating to Our Operations and Strategy
We expectdepend 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, including by suffering any disruptions at its facilities or in its supply, we may experience cost increases or 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. If we encounter significant supply interruptions, our competitive position could be adversely affected, which may result in depressed sales and profitability.
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in increased global supply chain constraints and disruption to the operations of certain of our suppliers and we cannot predict the duration or severity of current supply-chain issues, including increased input material costs and component shortages, delivery disruptions and delays, and inflation. Additionally, the effects of climate change, including extreme weather events, long-term changes in temperature levels, water availability, supply costs impacted by increasing energy costs, or energy costs impacted by carbon prices or offsets may exacerbate supply chain constraints and disruption. Resulting supply chain constraints have required, and may continue to require, in certain instances, alternative delivery arrangements and increased costs and could have a material adverse effect on our business and 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 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. Even if we are able to successfully respond to increased commodity costs through pricing actions, our competitive position could be adversely affected, which may result in depressed sales and profitability.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted our business and could continue to have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operation, financial condition, liquidity, customers, suppliers, and the geographies in which we operate.
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly increased economic, demand and operational uncertainty. We have global operations, customers and suppliers, including in countries most impacted by COVID-19. Authorities around the world have taken a variety of measures to slow the spread of COVID-19, including travel bans or restrictions, increased border controls or closures, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders and business shutdowns and such authorities may impose additional restrictions. We have also taken actions to protect our employees and to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, including embracing guidelines set by the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on social distancing, good hygiene, restrictions on employee travel and in-person meetings, and changes to employee work arrangements including remote work arrangements where feasible. The actions taken around the world to slow the spread of COVID-19 have also impacted our customers and suppliers, and future developments could cause further disruptions to us due to the interconnected nature of our business relationships.
The impact of COVID-19 on the global economy and our customers, as well as recent volatility in commodity markets, has negatively impacted demand for our products and could continue to do so in the future. Its effects could also result in further disruptions to our manufacturing operations, including higher rates of employee absenteeism, and to our supply chain, which could continue to negatively impact our ability to meet customer demand. Additionally, the potential deterioration and volatility of credit and financial markets could limit our ability to obtain external financing. The extent to which COVID-19 will impact our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity is highly uncertain and will depend on future developments, including the spread and duration of the virus, potential actions taken by governmental authorities, and how quickly economic conditions stabilize and recover.
16
We may 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 beenexpect to review our overall manufacturing footprint, including potentially consolidating facilities and operations, in an effort to make our business more efficient andefficient. We 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, divestitures, workforce reductions and other cost reduction measures that have adversely affected and, to the extent incurred in the future wouldcould 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.
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, 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, 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.
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.
In each of our Climate Solutions and Commercial Systems segments, we depend on, and expect to continue to 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 dependdepends on our continued ability to develop and manage relationships with these customers. We have long standing relationships with these customers and we expect these customer relationships 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.

the US, and political, societal or economic instability may present additional risks tofuture, our business.
As of December 29, 2018,January 1, 2022, we had $1.3 billiongoodwill of $4,039.2 million. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair market value of net assets acquired in aggregate debt outstanding underbusiness combinations. We review goodwill 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 would affect financial results. If we are required to record a significant charge to earnings in our various financing arrangements, $248.6 million in cash and cash equivalents and $401.2 million in available borrowings underconsolidated financial statements because an impairment of goodwill is determined, 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 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:
Portions of our total sales come directly from customers in key markets and industries. A significant or prolonged decline or disruption in one of those markets or industries could result in lower capital expenditures by such customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Portions of our total sales are dependent directly upon the level of capital expenditures by customers in key markets and industries, such as HVAC, refrigeration, power generation, oil and gas, and unit material handling, or water heating.heating and aerospace. A significant or prolonged decline or disruption in one of those markets or industries may result in some of such 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.
As of January 1, 2022, we had approximately $1.9 billion in aggregate debt outstanding under our various financing arrangements, approximately $672.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately $263.2 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 litigation, including product liabilitygeneral economic, financial, competitive and warranty claimsother 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:
18
•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.
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.
In addition, the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the interest rate benchmark used as a reference rate for certain borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility, is expected to be phased out by the end of calendar year 2023. Any disruption in the financial markets, interest rate increases, changes that may adversely affectresult from the implementation of new benchmark rates that replace LIBOR, or increases to our indebtedness levels could negatively impact our ability to access financial markets or increase our borrowing costs.
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.
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 associates 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 talent could have a negative effect on our operating results.
Moreover, on September 9, 2021, President Biden issued an executive order requiring certain employers with U.S. government contracts to ensure that their U.S.-based employees, contractors and subcontractors that work on or in support of the U.S. government contracts are fully vaccinated. Shortly before the executive order was to take effect, an injunction precluding enforcement was entered on a nationwide basis. The executive order is currently tied up in litigation. It is currently not possible to predict with certainty the impact of the executive order given that it is not currently being enforced. If we are required to implement the requirements under the executive order, then it may result in attrition, including attrition of critically skilled labor, and difficulty securing future labor needs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our failure to successfully integrate the Rexnord PMC business and Automation Solutions businesses and realize forecasted synergies from timethe Transactions and any future acquisitions into our business within our expected timetable could adversely affect our future results and the market price of our common stock following the completion of the Transactions or any future acquisitions.
19
The success of the Rexnord Transaction and the Automation Solutions Transaction will depend, in large part, our ability following the completion of the Transactions to time, a partyrealize the anticipated benefits of the Transactions and on our sales and profitability. To realize these anticipated benefits, we must successfully integrate the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses. These integrations will be complex and time-consuming. The failure to litigationsuccessfully integrate and manage the challenges presented by the integration process may result in our failure to achieve some or all of the anticipated benefits of the Transactions.
Potential difficulties that arisesmay be encountered in the normal course ofintegration process include, among others:
• the failure to implement our business operations, including product warrantyplan and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, employment and other litigation matters. We face an inherent business risk of exposurefor us 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 onrecognize synergies between our business and results of operationsthe Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses;
• lost sales and customers as a result of potential adverse outcomes,our customers or customers of the expensesRexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses deciding not to do business with us;
• risks associated with defending such claims,managing the diversion oflarger and more complex Company after the Transactions;
• integrating our management's resources and timepersonnel and the personnel of the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses while maintaining focus on providing consistent, high-quality products and service to customers;
• the loss of key employees;
• unanticipated issues in integrating manufacturing, logistics, information, communications and other systems;
• unexpected liabilities of the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses;
• possible inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures, policies and compensation structures;
• the impact on our internal controls and compliance with the regulatory requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; and
• potential adverse effectunknown liabilities and unforeseen expenses or delays associated with the Transactions.
If any of these events were to occur, our business reputation.
We will continue to successfully complete acquisitions, our abilityincur additional one-time costs related to grow our companythe Transactions, which may be limited.
We may suffer losses as a resultwill continue to incur additional one-time costs in connection with the Transactions, including transaction costs, integration costs, and other costs that our management believes are necessary to realize the anticipated synergies from the Transactions. Although we believe our projections of foreign currency fluctuations.
Businesses that we have acquired or that we may acquire in the future, including the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses, may have liabilities which are not known to us.
We have assumed liabilities of acquired businesses, including the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions 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
20
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.
In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, Zurn received a tax opinion from its tax counsel (the “Rexnord Tax Opinion”) that includes an opinion to the effect that the Reorganization, together with the distributions of Land common stock from Zurn to Zurn’s stockholders (the “Distributions”), will qualify as tax-free to Zurn, Land and the Zurn stockholders, as applicable, for U.S. federal income tax purposes except, in the case of Zurn, to the extent Land’s payment to a subsidiary of Zurn under the terms of the Separation Agreement (the “Land Cash Payment”) exceeds RBS Global Inc.’s adjusted tax basis in Land common stock. The Rexnord Tax Opinion is based on, among other things, certain representations and assumptions as to factual matters and certain covenants made by us, Land and Zurn. Although we believe the representations, assumptions and covenants in the Rexnord Tax Opinion to be true, the failure of any such factual representation, assumption or covenant to be true, correct and complete in all material respects could adversely affect the validity of the opinion. The Rexnord Tax Opinion is not binding on the IRS or the courts, and it is possible that the IRS or the courts may not agree with the opinion. In addition, the Rexnord Tax Opinion is based on current law, and the conclusions in the opinion cannot be relied upon if current law changes with retroactive effect.
The Spin-Off will be taxable to Zurn pursuant to Section 355(e) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended if there is a 50% or greater change in ownership of either Zurn or Land, directly or indirectly, as part of a plan or series of related transactions that include the Spin-Off. For this purpose, any acquisitions of Land or Zurn stock or our stock within the period beginning two years before the Spin-Off and ending two years after the Spin-Off are presumed to be a part of such plan, although we and Zurn may be able to rebut that presumption. Zurn received a private letter ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) (the “IRS Ruling”) with respect to certain tax aspects of the Rexnord Transaction, including matters relating to the nature and extent of shareholders who may be counted for tax purposes as “Overlap Shareholders” (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement) for purposes of determining the exchange ratio for the transaction in the Merger Agreement and the overall percentage change in the ownership of Land resulting from the Merger. The continuing validity of the IRS Ruling is subject to the accuracy of factual representations and assumptions made in the ruling request. Moreover, the IRS Ruling only describes the time, manner and methodology for measuring Overlap Shareholders and may be subject to varying interpretations.
The actual determination and calculation of Overlap Shareholders was made by us, Zurn and our respective advisors based on the IRS Ruling, but no assurance can be given that the IRS will agree with these determinations or calculations. If the IRS were to determine that the Merger, as a result of an error in the determination of Overlap Shareholders, or other acquisitions of Land, Zurn or our stock, either before or after the Spin-Off, resulted in a 50% or greater change in ownership and were part of a plan or series of related transactions that included the Spin-Off, such determination could result in significant tax liability to Zurn. In certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations, under the Tax Matters Agreement, Land is required to indemnify Zurn for 100% of the taxes that result if the Distributions become taxable as a result of certain actions by us or Land and for 90% of the taxes that result as a result of a miscalculation of the Overlap Shareholders. If this occurs and Land is required to indemnify Zurn, this indemnification obligation could be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on us and Land, including with respect to our financial condition and results of operations given that we have guaranteed the indemnification obligations of Land.
Following consummation of the Rexnord Transaction, we and Land are each required to abide by potentially significant restrictions which could limit our ability to undertake certain corporate actions (such as the issuance of common stock or the undertaking of certain business combinations) that otherwise could be advantageous.
The Tax Matters Agreement we entered into in connection with the Rexnord Transaction imposes certain restrictions on us, Land and Zurn during the two-year period following the Spin-Off, subject to certain exceptions, with respect to actions that could cause the Reorganization and the Distributions to fail to qualify for their intended tax treatment. As a result of these
21
restrictions, our and Land’s ability to engage in certain transactions, such as the issuance or purchase of stock or certain business combinations, may be limited.
If we, Land or Zurn take any enumerated actions or omissions, or if certain events relating to us, Land or Zurn occur that would cause the Reorganization or the Distributions to become taxable, the party whose actions or omissions (or who the event relates to) generally will be required to bear the cost of any resulting tax liability of Zurn (but not its stockholders). If the Reorganization or the Distributions became taxable, Zurn would be expected to recognize a substantial amount of gain, which would result in a material amount of taxes. Any such taxes would be expected to be material to us and could cause our business, financial condition and operating results to suffer. These restrictions may reduce our ability to engage in certain business transactions that otherwise might be advantageous, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition.
Zurn may not be able to perform the services it is required to perform under the Transition Services Agreement.
Prior to the Rexnord Transaction, Zurn performed certain corporate and other functions for the Rexnord PMC business. Following the Merger, Zurn is obligated to perform some of these services to the Rexnord PMC business pursuant to a transition services agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement”) between us, Zurn and Land for a transitional period. In the event that Zurn does not or is unable to perform its obligations with respect to the Rexnord PMC business under the Transition Services Agreement, or if there are disputes in connection with the Transition Services Agreement, we may be required to incur significant costs in order to provide such services or resolve such disputes, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Risks Relating to Our Global Footprint
We operate in the highly competitive global electric motors and controls, power generation and power transmission industries.
The global electric motors 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.
We manufacture a significant portion of our products outside the US, and political, societal or economic instability or public health crises may present additional risks to our business.
Approximately 24,000 of our approximate 30,000 total assets,associates and if we determine61 of our principal manufacturing and warehouse facilities are located outside the U.S. 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 goodwill and indefinite-lived trade name intangibles have become impairedcould cause loss of revenue.
22
Unfavorable changes in the future,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 financial condition in such years may be materially and adversely affected.
In addition, as described in more detail above, the continued global spread of goodwill or indefinite-lived trade name intangibles would affect financial results andCOVID-19 could have a material and adverse impact upon the market price ofeffect on 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, ourcondition, results of operations and cash flows.
Disruptions caused by labor disputes or organized labor activities could adversely affect our business or financial results.
We have a significant number of employees in Europe and other jurisdictions where trade union membership is common. Although we believe that our relations with our employees are strong, if our unionized workers were to engage in a strike, work stoppage or other slowdown in the future, we could experience a significant disruption of our operations, which could interfere with our ability to deliver products on a timely basis and could have other negative effects, such as decreased productivity and increased labor costs. In addition, if a greater percentage of our workforce becomes unionized as a result of legal or regulatory changes which may make union organizing easier, or otherwise, our costs could increase and our efficiency be affected in a material adverse manner, negatively impacting our business and financial results. Further, many of our direct and indirect customers and their suppliers, and organizations responsible for shipping our products, have unionized workforces and their businesses may be impacted by strikes, work stoppages or slowdowns, any of which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, could be materiallyresults of operations or cash flows.
Economic and adversely affected.Financial Risks
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 tomay 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 are 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 suffer losses as a result of foreign currency fluctuations.
The net assets, net earnings and cash flows from our foreign subsidiaries based on the U.S. 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 U.S. dollar. Any increase in the value of the U.S. 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 U.S. dollars. Similarly, any decrease in the value of the U.S. 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 U.S. dollars.
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 could be considered key suppliers. If the commercial, 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. Some of the industries that we serve are highly cyclical, such as the aerospace, energy and industrial equipment industries. 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.
23
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 U.S., and a substantial portion of our assets and associates are located outside of the U.S. 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.
Our required cash contributions to our pension plans may increase further and we could experience a change in the funded status of our pension plans and the amount recorded in our consolidated balance sheets related to such plans. Additionally, our pension costs could increase in future years.
The funded status of our defined benefit pension plans depends on such factors as asset returns, market interest rates, legislative changes and funding regulations. If the returns on the assets of any of our plans were to decline in future periods, if market interest rates were to decline, if the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation were to require additional contributions to any such plans as a result of acquisitions or if other actuarial assumptions were to be modified, our future required cash contributions and pension costs to such plans could increase. Any such increases could impact our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The need to make contributions to such plans may reduce the cash available to meet our other obligations, including our obligations under our borrowing arrangements or to meet the needs of our business.
Risks Relating to the Legal and Regulatory Environment
We are subject to changes in legislative, regulatory and legal developments involving income and other taxes.
We are subject to U.S. 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.
It is difficult to predict the timing and effect that future tax law changes could have on our earnings both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. The Biden administration has provided informal guidance on certain tax law changes that it would support, which includes, among other things, raising tax rates on both domestic and foreign income and imposing a new alternative minimum tax on book income. Such changes could cause us to experience an effective tax rate significantly different from previous periods or our current estimates. If our effective tax rate were to increase, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
We are subject to litigation, including product liability, asbestos 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, asbestos and warranty claims in the event that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. As described above, 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. In addition, certain subsidiaries of ours are co-defendants in various lawsuits in a number of U.S. jurisdictions alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos that was used in certain components of legacy Rexnord PMC business products. The uncertainties of litigation and the uncertainties related to insurance and indemnification coverage make it difficult to accurately predict the ultimate financial effect of these claims. If our insurance or indemnification coverage is not adequate to cover our potential financial exposure, our insurers or indemnitors dispute their obligations to provide coverage, or the actual number or value of claims differs materially from our existing estimates, we could incur material costs that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
While we maintain general liability and product liability insurance coverage in amounts that we believe are reasonable, 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
24
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.
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 expect 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 expect to 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 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.
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, including costs relating to investigation and remediation actions.
IT security threats via computer malware and other “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.have. 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.
25
We have substantially completed the implementation of a globaltwo Enterprise Resource Planning (the “ERP”(“ERP”) systemsystems that each redesigned and deployed a common information system.systems. We will continue to implement the ERP systemsystems 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,systems, some elements may not perform as expected. This could have an adverse effect on our business.
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 toexpect 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.
General Risks
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 US 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 USU.S. 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, including, for example, the uncertainty surrounding the effect of the United Kingdom’s impending exit from the European Union, commonly referred to as “Brexit,” and trade relations between the USU.S. and China, the implementation of the USMCA, or the change in labor rates in Mexico.China.
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
A 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 our 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.
As a result of our acquisition of the Rexnord PMC business, we are entitled to indemnification from third parties who are parties to agreements with the Rexnord PMC business against certain contingent liabilities of the Rexnord PMC business, including certain pre-closing environmental liabilities.
We believe that, pursuant to the transaction documents related to the Rexnord PMC business’ acquisition of the Stearns business from Invensys plc (“Invensys”), Invensys (now known as Schneider Electric) is obligated to defend and indemnify us with respect to the matters described below relating to the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site and to various asbestos claims. The indemnity obligations relating to the matters described below are subject, together with indemnity obligations relating to other matters, to an overall dollar cap equal to the purchase price, which is an amount in excess of $900 million. In the event that we are unable to recover from Invensys with respect to the matters below, we may be entitled to indemnification from Zurn, subject to certain limitations. The following paragraphs summarize the most significant actions and proceedings:
•In 2002, our subsidiary, Rexnord Industries, LLC (“Rexnord Industries”), was named as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”), together with at least ten other companies, at the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site, Downers Grove, DuPage County, Illinois (the “Site”), by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”), and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“IEPA”). Rexnord Industries’ Downers Grove property is situated within the Ellsworth Industrial Complex. The USEPA and IEPA allege there have been one or more releases or threatened releases of chlorinated solvents and other hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants at the Site, allegedly including but not limited to a release or threatened release on or from Rexnord Industries’ property. The relief sought by the USEPA and IEPA includes further investigation and potential remediation of the Site and reimbursement of USEPA’s past costs. In early 2020, Rexnord Industries entered into an administrative order with the USEPA to do remediation work on its Downers Grove property. Rexnord Industries’ allocated share of past and future costs related to the Site, including for investigation and/or remediation, could be significant. All previously pending property damage and personal injury lawsuits against Rexnord Industries related to the Site have been settled or dismissed. Pursuant to its indemnity obligation, Invensys continues to defend Rexnord Industries in known matters related to the Site, including the costs of the remediation work pursuant to the 2020 administrative order, and has paid 100% of the costs to date. This indemnification right would not protect Rexnord Industries against liabilities related to environmental conditions that were unknown to Invensys at the time of the acquisition of the Stearns business from Invensys.
•Multiple lawsuits (with approximately 300 claimants) are pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain brakes and clutches previously manufactured by the Rexnord PMC business’ Stearns brand of brakes and clutches and/or its predecessor owners. Invensys and FMC, prior owners of the Stearns business, have paid 100% of the costs to date related to the Stearns lawsuits. Similarly, the Rexnord PMC business’ Prager subsidiary is the subject of claims by multiple claimants alleging personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in a product allegedly manufactured by Prager. However, all these claims are currently on the Texas Multi-district Litigation inactive docket, and we do not believe that they will become active in the future. To date, the Rexnord PMC business’ insurance providers have paid 100% of the costs related to the Prager asbestos matters. We believe that the combination of our insurance coverage and the Invensys indemnity obligations will cover any future costs of these matters.
In connection with our acquisition of the Rexnord PMC business, transaction documents related to the Rexnord PMC business’ acquisition of The Falk Corporation from Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation were assigned to Rexnord Industries, and provide Rexnord Industries with indemnification against certain products-related asbestos exposure liabilities. We believe that, pursuant to such indemnity obligations, Hamilton Sundstrand is obligated to defend and indemnify Rexnord Industries with respect to asbestos claims that may be significant, and that, with respect to these claims, such indemnity obligations are not subject to any
29
time or dollar limitations. The following paragraph summarizes the most significant actions and proceedings for which Hamilton Sundstrand has accepted responsibility:
•Rexnord Industries is a defendant in multiple lawsuits pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain clutches and drives previously manufactured by The Falk Corporation. The ultimate outcome of these lawsuits cannot presently be determined. Hamilton Sundstrand is defending Rexnord Industries in these lawsuits pursuant to its indemnity obligations and has paid 100% of the costs to date.
In addition to the matters described above, 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 BeloitRexnord Corporation (NYSE: RBC)RRX) (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”), based is a global leader in the engineering and manufacturing of industrial powertrain solutions, power transmission components, electrical motors and electronic controls, air moving products and specialty electrical components and systems, serving customers around the world. Through longstanding technology leadership and an intentional focus on producing more energy-efficient products and systems, we help create a better tomorrow – for our customers and for the planet.
We are headquartered 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.have manufacturing, sales and service facilities worldwide. As of the end of fiscal 2018,2021, the Company, including its subsidiaries, employsemployed approximately 24,60030,000 people in its global manufacturing, sales, and service facilities and corporate offices throughout the US, Canada, Mexico, Europe and Asia.offices. In fiscal 2018,2021, we reported annual net sales of $3.6$3.8 billion compared to $3.4$2.9 billion in fiscal 2017.2020.
Our company is comprised of threefour operating segments: Commercial andSystems, Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Motion Control Solutions. Our new Motion Control Solutions operating segment consists of our legacy Power Transmission Solutions.Solutions operating segment, the Rexnord Process & Motion Control business (the “Rexnord PMC business”), which we acquired on October 4, 2021, and Arrowhead Systems, which we acquired on November 23, 2021. We now refer to Arrowhead Systems as our Automation Solutions business.
A description of the threeour four operating segments is as follows:
•Commercial Systems segment designs and Industrial Systems produces mediumfractional to approximately 5 horsepower AC and largeDC motors, electronic variable speed controls, fans, and blowers for commercial and industrial equipment, alternators, motors and controls and air moving solutions.applications. These products serve markets including commercial building ventilation and HVAC, pool and spa, standbyirrigation, dewatering, agriculture, and critical powergeneral commercial equipment.

•Climate Solutions segment designs and produces small motors, electronic variable speed controls and air moving solutions serving markets including residential and light commercial HVAC, water heaters and commercial refrigeration.
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 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 are derived from direct sales to customers by sales personnel employed by the Company, however, a significant portion of 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 business unit to business unit.
33
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 businesses divested/to be exited ("Business To Be Exited"), and (iii) the impact of foreign currency translation. The impact of foreign currency translation is determined by translating the respective period’s organic 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.
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, 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 portions of the commodity price fluctuations through fixed-price agreements with suppliers and our hedging strategies. 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 business units experience different levels of variation in gross profitsales from quarter to quarter based on factors specific to each 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 TransmissionMotion Control 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 business 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 and Industrial Systems and Climate Solutions segments. In particular, a large driver of our research and development efforts in those two segments is energy efficiency, which generally means using less electrical power to produce more mechanical power.

Goodwill & Other Asset Impairments.On July 31, 2018,In the fourth quarter of 2021, 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 will be winding down our operations over the next few months and as a result, we recognized exit and exit related charges of $34.9 million during fiscal 2018. The charges includedrecorded goodwill impairment of $9.5$33.0 million in our global industrial motors reporting unit. During fiscal 2021, we recognized $5.6 million of asset impairments related to the transfer of assets to held for sale.
During fiscal 2020, we recorded goodwill impairment of $10.5 million in our global industrial motors reporting unit. During fiscal 2020, we recognized $5.3 million of asset impairments related to the transfer of assets to held for sale.
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 relationshiprelationships intangible asset impairmentimpairments.
The following table presents impairments by segment as of $5.5 million, technology intangible asset impairment of $2.1 millionJanuary 1, 2022, January 2, 2021 and fixed asset impairment of $1.1 million.

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.
COVID-19 evolved during 2020 into a global pandemic, resulting in a severe global health crisis that drove a dramatic slowdown in global economic and social activity. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, health risks remain.
In the face of this global crisis, our first priority has been the health and safety of our associates. In response, we implemented a host of measures to help our associates stay safe, measures that have been enhanced and refined as impacts from COVID-19 evolved, and as our knowledge about how to enhance their effectiveness improved.
Factors deriving from the COVID-19 response that have or may negatively impact sales and operating profit in the future include, but are not limited to: limitations on the ability of our suppliers to manufacture, or procure from manufacturers, components and raw materials used in our products, or to meet delivery requirements and commitments; limitations on the ability of our employees to perform their work due to illness caused by the pandemic or local, state, or federal orders requiring employees to remain at home; inconsistent criteria in certain international jurisdictions for establishing the essentiality of our business; limitations on the ability of carriers to deliver our products to customers; limitations on the ability of our customers to conduct their business and purchase our products and services; reductions in demands of our customers; and limitations on the ability of our customers to pay us on a timely basis.
We continue to monitor the pandemic and make adjustments to the business as necessary to address any limitations or negative impacts.

Rexnord and Automation Solutions Transactions
On October 4, 2021, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 15, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), the Company completed its combination with the Rexnord PMC business of Zurn Water Solutions Corporation (formerly known as Rexnord Corporation) (“Zurn”) in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the “Rexnord Transaction”). Pursuant to the Rexnord Transaction, (1) Zurn transferred to its then-subsidiary Land Newco, Inc. (“Land”) substantially all of the assets, and Land assumed substantially all of the liabilities, of the Rexnord PMC business (the “Reorganization”), (2) after which, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Land (“Land common stock”) held by a subsidiary of Zurn were distributed in a series of distributions to Zurn’s stockholders (the distributions, and the final distribution of Land common stock from Zurn to Zurn’s stockholders, which was made pro rata for no consideration, the “Spin-Off”) and (3) immediately after the Spin-Off, a subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) merged with and into Land (the “Merger”) and all shares of Land common stock (other than those held by Zurn, Land, the Company, Merger Sub or their respective subsidiaries) were converted into the right to receive 0.22296103 shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Company common stock”), as calculated in the Merger Agreement. When the Merger was completed, Land which held the Rexnord PMC business, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Pursuant to the Merger, we issued 27,055,945 shares of common stock to holders of Land common stock, which represented approximately 39.9% of the 67,756,732 outstanding shares of Company common stock immediately following the completion of the Merger.
In addition, shareholders of record as of October 1, 2021 received a special dividend of $6.99 per share (or approximately $284.4 million in aggregate) pursuant to a special dividend in connection with the Rexnord Transaction.
In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, we have entered into certain financing arrangements, which are described below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources”.
On November 23, 2021, we acquired Arrowhead Systems, LLC, which we now refer to as our Automation Solutions business, for $315.6 million in cash, net of $1.1 million of cash acquired (the "Automation Solutions Transaction"). Our Automation Solutions business is a global leader in providing industrial process automation solutions, including conveyors and (de)palletizers to the food & beverage, aluminum can, and consumer staples end markets, among others. Our Automation Solutions business is a division of our Motion Control Solutions segment, and its financials have been included in results for that segment from the date of acquisition.
Change in Fiscal Year End
At a meeting of the Company's Board of Directors on October 26, 2021, the Board approved a change in the fiscal 2019,year end from a 52-53 week year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31 to a calendar year ending on December 31, effective beginning with fiscal year 2022. We expect to make the fiscal year change on a prospective basis and will not adjust operating results for prior periods. The change to our fiscal year will not impact our results for the year ended January 1, 2022. However, the change will impact the prior year comparability of each of the fiscal quarters and the annual period in 2022 and in future filings. We believe this change will provide numerous benefits, including aligning its reporting periods to be more consistent with peer companies.
Outlook. In fiscal 2022, we are forecasting low to mid-single digit organicto high-single digit sales growth, and we expect to improve our operating margin.growth. We expect to see positive impact from our transactions and new products targeted for the upcoming energy efficiency regulations.products. In fiscal 2019,2022, we expect diluted earnings per share to be $6.59$6.95 to $6.99.$7.55. Our fiscal 20192022 diluted earnings per share guidance is based on an effective tax rate of 21%23%.

We utilize blanket purchase orders (“Blankets”) to communicate expected annual requirements to many of our suppliers. Requirements under Blankets 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.”
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 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.
43
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.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, we recorded goodwill impairment of $33.0 million in our global industrial motors reporting unit. The calculated fair values forglobal industrial motors reporting unit had goodwill of $80.1 million as of January 1, 2022 and is included in our fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017 impairment testing exceeded the carrying values by at least 10% for all of our reporting units.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. 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.
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 6 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.
Retirement and Post Retirement Plans
Most of our domestic employeesassociates are participants in defined contribution plans and/or defined benefit pension plans. The majority of the defined benefit pension plans covering a majority of our domestic employeesassociates have been closed to new employeesassociates and frozen for existing employees.associates, however, however certain employees represented by collective bargaining continue to earn benefits. Certain employeesassociates are covered by a post retirementpost-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.
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.
44
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. As of December 29, 2018,January 1, 2022, we had $404.7$76.7 million of fixed rate debt and $908.6$1,845.5 million of variable rate debt. As of December 30, 2017,January 2, 2021, we had $504.7$404.1 million of fixed rate debt and $641.8$670.5 million of variable rate debt. We utilize interest rate swaps to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from exposure to interest rate risk on forecasted variable rate interest payments.
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 as of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 would result in a $0.3$2.3 million change in after-tax annualized earnings. We have entered into atwo forward starting pay fixed/receive floating non-amortizing interest rate swapswaps in June 2020, with a total notional amount of $250.0 million to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk related to the floating rate interest on our Multicurrency Revolving Facility. Such interest rate swap has beeninterest. These swaps became effective July 2021 and will expire in July 2025. Upon inception, the swaps were designated as a cash flow hedgehedges against forecasted interest payments.payments under ASU 2017-12, with gains and losses, net of tax, measured on an ongoing basis, recorded in AOCI.

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 LIBOR after 2021. We have material exposure to LIBOR through our revolving credit facility, certain lines of credit and interest rate swaps that are indexed to USD-LIBORUSD-LIBOR. It is expected that LIBOR will be discontinued and, while we are monitoring this activity and evaluatingbelieve an acceptable replacement to LIBOR will be available, if LIBOR is discontinued, we cannot reasonably estimate the related risks and options.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.

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 BeloitRexnord 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 29, 2018.January 1, 2022. In making its assessment, the Company's management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). As allowed by SEC guidance, management excluded from its assessment Nicotra Gebhardt S.p.A., which was acquired in 2018 and constituted 4.0% and 6.6% of total and net assets, respectively, as of December 29, 2018 and 2.6% and (0.2)% of net sales and net income respectively for the year then ended. Based on the results of its evaluation, the Company's management concluded that, as of December 29, 2018,January 1, 2022, the Company's internal control over financial reporting is effective at the reasonable assurance level based on those criteria.
Management excluded an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting related to the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses. The Company acquired the Rexnord PMC business on October 4, 2021, and the Automation Solutions business on November 23, 2021. Together, the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses represented 11% of the Company’s consolidated total assets (excluding goodwill and intangibles which were included in management's assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of January 1, 2022) and 9% of the consolidated total revenues as of and for the year ended January 1, 2022. Accordingly, the Company’s assessment did not include the internal control over financial reporting for the Rexnord PMC or Automation Solutions businesses.
Our internal control over financial reporting as of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. 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 Reporting Unit – 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 reporting unit by comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. In order to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit, management is required to make significant estimates and assumptions related to the discount rate and forecasts of future earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and 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 consolidated goodwill balance was $4,039 million as of January 1, 2022, of which $80.1 million related to the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit. As of October 30, 2021, the Company’s measurement date, the Company determined that the carrying value for the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit was in excess of fair value and recorded a $33.0 million goodwill impairment charge.
We identified the impairment evaluation of goodwill for the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit as a critical audit matter because of the inherent subjectivity involved in management’s estimates and assumptions related to the discount rate and forecasts of future EBITDA margins. The audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and
49
assumptions related to the selection of the discount rate and forecast of future 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 the discount rate and forecasts of future EBITDA margins for the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit 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 rate and management’s development of forecasts of future 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 October 30, 2021, annual measurement date to January 1, 2022.
•With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rate by:
◦Testing the source information underlying management’s determination of the discount rate.
◦Testing the mathematical accuracy of management’s calculations.
◦Developing a range of independent estimates and compared those to the discount rate selected by management.
Fair Value of Acquired Customer Relationship, Tradename and Technology Intangible Assets – Refer to Note 3 to the Financial Statements
Critical Audit Matter Description
During 2021, the Company acquired the Rexnord Process & Motion Control business from Rexnord Corporation (now known as Zurn Water Solutions Corporation) for an aggregate purchase price of $3,977 million. The Company accounted for the acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values. Related to the acquisition, the Company recorded intangible assets related to customer relationships, tradenames and technology assets of $1,519 million, $225 million and $87 million, respectively, based on a discounted cash flow model. In order to estimate the acquisition date fair value of the customer relationship, tradenames and technology intangible assets, management made significant estimates and assumptions related to discount rates, royalty rates, and forecasts of future revenues and EBITDA margins.
Given the fair value determination of the acquired customer relationships, tradenames and technology assets required management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to the forecasts of future cash flows and the selection of the discount rates and royalty rates, performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment 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, royalty rates and forecasts of future revenues and EBITDA margins for the intangible assets included the following, among others:
•We tested the effectiveness of controls over management’s evaluation of the fair value of acquired intangibles, including those over the selection of the discount rates, royalty 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.
50
•With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the discount rates and royalty rates, and tested the underlying market-based source information and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations, and developed a range of independent valuation assumptions and compared those to the respective discount rates and royalty rates selected by management.

Basis for Opinion
The Company'sCompany’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company'sCompany’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.

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.

The Company will make the fiscal year change on a prospective basis and will not adjust operating results for prior periods. The change to the Company’s fiscal year will not impact the Company’s results for the year ended January 1, 2022. While this change will impact the comparability of future results with each of the fiscal quarters and the annual fiscal period in 2022, the impact is not expected to be material to our quarterly or annual results.
(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.
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;credit losses; excess and obsolete inventory; share-based compensation; acquisitions; product warranty obligations; pension and post retirementpost-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 recognizes revenue from the sale of electric motors, electrical motion controls, power generation and power transmission products. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the product passes to the 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.
58
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. 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 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 2018,2021, fiscal 20172020 or fiscal 2016.2019.
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’sOEM customers. The Company reports in three4 operating segments: Commercial andSystems, Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Power TransmissionMotion Control 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 three4 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.
59
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 areit is 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.

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.
60
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, Development and DevelopmentEngineering
The Company performs research, development and developmentengineering activities relating to new product development and the improvement of current products. The Company's research, development and developmentengineering 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, development and developmentengineering 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
Research, development and Commercial and Industrial Systems segments. In particular, a large driver of research and development efforts in the Climate Solutions and Commercial and Industrial Systems segments is energy efficiency.

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.
Trade Receivables
The Company's policy for estimating the allowance for credit losses on trade receivables considers several factors including historical write-off experience, overall customer credit quality in relation to general economic and market conditions, and specific customer account analyses to estimate expected credit losses. The specific customer account analysis considers such items as, credit worthiness, payment history, and historical bad debt experience. Trade receivables are stated at estimated net realizable value. Trade receivableswritten off after exhaustive collection efforts occur and the receivable is deemed uncollectible. Adjustments to the allowance for credit losses are comprisedrecorded in Operating Expenses.

Inventories
The Company changed its method of balances due from customers, netcalculating last-in, first-out ("LIFO") inventories, which represented approximately 48.5% of estimated allowances. In estimating losses inherent in trade receivables,the Company’s inventory as of January 2, 2021.

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.

Goodwill
62
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. The Company performed quantitative impairment testing for all reporting units in 2018.fiscal 2021. The Company performs the required annual goodwill impairment testing 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.
In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recorded goodwill impairment of $33.0 million in its global industrial motors reporting unit. The global industrial motors reporting unit fair values forhad goodwill of $80.1 million as of January 1, 2022 and is included in the Company's fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017 impairment testing exceeded the carrying values by at least 10% for all of its reporting units.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.
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 compareduses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the primary asset to undiscounted estimated future cash flows.estimate recoverability of the asset group. If such estimated future cash flows are less than carrying value, an impairment would be recognized. The Company recorded impairments for its customer relationshipThere was no impairment of 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.
assets during fiscal 2021 or 2020.
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 testing as of the end of the October fiscal month.
During the fourth quarter of 2021, following the Rexnord Transaction (as defined in Note 4), which included the acquisition of additional trade names that may have an impact on the Company's long-term branding strategy, the Company determined that the indefinite-lived intangible asset associated with the Power Transmission Solutions trade name had a finite life and began amortizing it over a remaining estimated useful life using the straight line method. Following this change, this asset will be evaluated for impairment under guidance applicable to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment.long-lived assets.
63
Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment 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 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. In fiscal 2021, the Company concluded it had asset impairments related to the transfer of assets to held for sale of $5.6 million. The Company concluded it had an impairment of $1.1$5.3 million in long-lived assets in fiscal 20182020 due to the winding downtransfer of the Hermetic Climate business described above.assets to held for sale.
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 0.60.1 million in fiscal 2018, 0.52021, 0.4 million in fiscal 20172020 and 1.30.4 million in fiscal 2016.2019.

Retirement and Post RetirementPost-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 retirementpost-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 retirementpost-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.
The service cost component of the Company's net periodic benefit cost is included in Cost of Sales and Operating Expenses. All other components of net periodic benefit costs are included in Other (Income) Expenses, net on the Company's Consolidated Statements of 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).
Income Taxes
The Company operatesaccounts for income taxes in numerous taxing jurisdictionsaccordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and consideration of operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income
64
taxes are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The impact on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are provided to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. This requires management to make judgments and estimates regarding the amount and timing of the reversal of taxable temporary differences, expected future taxable income, and the impact of tax planning strategies.
Uncertainty exists regarding tax positions taken in previously filed tax returns which remain subject to regular examinations by various US federal, state and foreign jurisdictionsexamination, along with positions expected to be taken in future returns. The Company provides for variousunrecognized tax periods. The Company's incomebenefits, based on the technical merits, when it is more likely than not that an uncertain tax position will not be sustained upon examination. Adjustments are made to the uncertain tax positions are based on researchwhen facts and interpretationscircumstances change, such as the closing of a tax audit; changes in applicable tax laws, including tax case rulings and legislative guidance; or expiration of the income tax laws and rulings in eachapplicable statute 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.limitations.
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. The fair value of pension assets and derivative instruments is determined based on the methods disclosed in Notes 8 and 14.13.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In February 2018,October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-02,ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805) Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. The ASU improves the accounting for acquired revenue contracts with customers in a business combination. This

Adopted Accounting Standards
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Statement - Reporting ComprehensiveTaxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of Topic 740, and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The Company adopted the standard as of January 3, 2021 the beginning of fiscal 2021, with no material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic 220), Reclassification326). The focus of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. Thisthis ASU addresses the income tax effects of items in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (“AOCI”) which were originally recognized in other comprehensive income,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 income from continuing operations. Specifically, it permits a reclassification from AOCI to Retained Earnings for the adjustmentmore timely recognition of deferred taxes due to the reduction of the historical corporate income tax rate to the newly enacted corporate income tax rate resulting from the US tax law changes enacted in December 2017. It also requires certain disclosures about these reclassifications.such losses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The new guidance must be applied either on a prospective basis in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in the US federal corporate income tax rate in the US tax law changes are recognized.therein. The Company elected to early adopt thisadopted the standard as of April 1, 2018. DuringDecember 29, 2019, the second quarter,beginning of fiscal 2020, under the Company elected to reclassify the stranded effects from the US tax law changes from AOCI to Retained Earnings on a prospective basis. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2018-02, the Company reclassified $4.6 million from AOCI to Retained Earnings. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new leasing standard establishes acore principle of ASU 2016-02 is that an entity should recognize right of use ("ROU") modelassets and lease liabilities arising from an operating lease on its Balance Sheet. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to recordmake lease payments, the lease liability, and a ROU asset and arepresenting its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months.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. In July 2018, the FASB amended its guidance by 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 amendment also allows lessors the option to make a policy election to treat lease and nonlease components as a single lease component under certain conditions.
The Company adopted the standard as of December 30, 2018, the beginning of fiscal 2019, under the modified retrospective method in whichmethod. Comparative periods prior to the Company will record a cumulativeadoption of the standard have not been adjusted to give the effect adjustment. to the standard.
The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the relief package within the new standard, which among other things, allows the Company to carryforward the historical lease accounting of expired or existing leases with respect to lease identification, lease classification and accounting treatment for initial direct costs as of the adoption date. The Company also elected the practical expedient related to lease versus nonleasenon-lease components, allowing the Company to recognize lease and nonlease components as a single lease.
Adoption of the new standard will resultresulted in the recognitionrecording of ROUthe right-of-use assets and lease liabilities of approximately $85.0$93.0 million as of December 30, 2018. No cumulative effect adjustment to$105.0 million based on the present value retained earnings was recognized upon adoption of the remaining lease payments. As thisnew standard. The standard is non-cash in nature,did not materially impact the Company does not believe the standard will have anCompany's Consolidated Net Income and had no impact on its cash flows and the impact to the results of operations is still being evaluated. The adoption is not expected to have any impact on its debt-covenant compliance under the current credit agreements.Cash Flows. See Note 9 for additional disclosures.
In May 2014,August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts2018-13, 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. 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. The Company adopted the standard as of December 29, 2019, the beginning of fiscal 2020, with Customersno material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued 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.

On October 4, 2021, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 15, 2021 (the “Merger Agreement”), the Company completed its combination with the Rexnord Process & Industrial Systems segmentMotion Control business (“Rexnord PMC business”) of Rexnord Corporation (which changed its name on October 4, 2021 to Zurn Water Solutions Corporation) (“Zurn”) in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the “Rexnord Transaction”). Pursuant to the Rexnord Transaction, (i) Zurn transferred to its then-subsidiary Land Newco, Inc. (“Land”) substantially all of the assets, and Land assumed substantially all of the liabilities, of the Rexnord PMC business (the “Reorganization”), (ii) after which all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Land (“Land common stock”) held by a subsidiary of Zurn were distributed in a series of distributions to Zurn’s stockholders (the “Distributions”, and the final distribution of Land common stock from Zurn to Zurn’s stockholders, which was made pro rata for no consideration, the “Spin-Off”) and (iii) immediately after the Spin-Off, a subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) merged with and into Land (the “Merger”) and all shares of Land common stock (other than those held by Zurn, Land, the Company, Merger Sub or their respective subsidiaries) were converted as of the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) into the right to receive 0.22296103 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (“Company common stock”), as calculated in the Merger Agreement.
As of the Effective Time, Land, which held the Rexnord PMC business, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Pursuant to the Merger, the Company issued approximately 27,055,945 shares of Company common stock to holders of Land common stock, which represents approximately 39.9% of the approximately 67,756,732 outstanding shares of Company common stock immediately following the Effective Time. In addition, holders of record of Company common stock as of October 1, 2021 received $6.99 per share of Company common stock pursuant to a previously announced special dividend in connection with the Transactions (the “Special Dividend”).
In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, membership on the Company's Board of Directors was increased to 11 directors, in which two directors designated by Zurn were appointed to the board. The current chief executive officer of the Company continued as the chief executive officer of the combined company after the Rexnord Transaction and a majority of the senior management of the Company immediately prior the consummation of the Rexnord Transaction remained executive officers of the Company immediately after the Rexnord Transaction. The Company's management determined that the Company is the accounting acquirer in the Rexnord Transaction based on the facts and circumstances noted within this section and other relevant factors. As such, the Company applied the acquisition method of accounting to the identifiable assets and liabilities of Rexnord PMC business, which have been measured at estimated fair value as of the date of acquisition.the business combination.
In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, the Company has entered into certain financing arrangements, which are described in Note 7.
The tax matters agreement the Company finalized its analysisentered into in connection with the Rexnord Transaction imposes certain restrictions on the Company, Land and Zurn during the two-year period following the Spin-Off, subject to certain exceptions, with respect
68
to actions that could cause the Reorganization and the Distributions to fail to qualify for the intended tax treatment. As a result of these restrictions, the Company's and Land’s ability to engage in certain transactions, such as the issuance or purchase of stock or certain business combinations, may be limited.
The total consideration transferred for the acquisition of Land was approximately $4.0 billion subject to finalization of purchase accounting and working capital adjustments. The total assets and liabilities assumed will be adjusted, based on the final balances per the terms included within the Separation and Distribution Agreement.
The preliminary purchase price of the Rexnord PMC business consisted of the following (in millions):
| Fair value of Company common stock issued to Zurn (a) | $ | 3,896.3 | ||||||
| Stock based compensation (b) | 47.1 | |||||||
| Adjustment amount (c) | 30.9 | |||||||
| Land Financing Fees paid by the Company (d) | 3.9 | |||||||
| Preexisting Relationships (e) | (0.8) | |||||||
| Preliminary purchase price | $ | 3,977.4 | ||||||
(a) Represents approximately 27 million new shares of Company common stock issued to Zurn stockholders in the exchange offer, based on the Company's October 4, 2021, closing share price of $151.00, less the Special Dividend amount of $6.99, which the Zurn stockholders were not entitled to receive.
(b) Represents fair value of replacement equity-based awards and Company common stock issued in settlement of other Zurn share based awards. The portion of the fair value attributable to pre-Merger service was recorded as part of tangiblethe consideration transferred in the Merger - see Note 10.
(c) Represents estimated working capital adjustment pursuant to the terms of the purchase agreement.
(d) Represents financing fees paid by the Company for the Bridge Facility and Land Term Facility (as defined in Note 7) that were determined to be costs of Zurn.
(e) Represents effective settlement of outstanding payables and receivables between the Company and the Rexnord PMC business. No gain or loss was recognized on this settlement.
Purchase Price Allocation
The Rexnord PMC business’s assets and liabilities were measured at estimated fair values at October 4, 2021, primarily using Level 3 inputs. Estimates of fair value represent management’s best estimate of assumptions about future events and uncertainties, including significant judgments related to future cash flows, discount rates, competitive trends, margin and revenue growth assumptions including royalty rates and customer attrition rates and others. Inputs used were generally obtained from historical data supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions and growth rates expected as of the acquisition date.
Due to the timing of the business combinationand the nature of the net assets acquired, at January 1, 2022, the valuation process to determine the fair values is not complete and liabilities assumed andfurther adjustments are expected in fiscal year 2022. The Company has estimated the allocation of any excess acquisition cost over thepreliminary fair value of the net tangible assets acquired based on information currently available and will continue to any separately identifiable intangible assets. Theadjust those estimates as additional information becomes available, including the refinement of market participant assumptions. As the Company booked provisional amounts at the acquisition date and has made adjustments to the provisional amounts to reflect changes in the initial value of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and the related deferred tax balances. The Company made the adjustments retrospectively during the allowed measurement period. The Company has completed its assessment of valuing property, plant and equipment using both a market approach and a cost approach depending on the asset. Intangible assets have been valued using the present value of projected future cash flows. Significant assumptions include royalty rates, discount rates and customer attrition. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Summary of Significant Fair Value Methods
The methods used to determine the fair value of significant identifiable assets and liabilities included in the allocation of purchase price are discussed below.
Inventories
Acquired inventory was comprised of finished goods, work in process and raw materials. The fair value of finished goods was calculated as the estimated selling price, adjusted for costs of the selling effort and a reasonable profit allowance relating to the selling effort. The fair value of work in process inventory was primarily calculated as the estimated selling price, adjusted for estimated costs to complete the manufacturing, estimated costs of the selling effort, as well as a reasonable profit margin on the remaining manufacturing and selling effort. The fair value of raw materials and supplies was determined based on replacement cost which approximates historical carrying value.
Property, Plant and Equipment
The preliminary fair value of Property, Plant, and Equipment was determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset.
Identifiable Intangible Assets
The fair value and weighted average useful life of the identifiable intangible assets are as follows (in millions):
70
| As of April 10, 2018 | |||
| Other Current Assets | $ | 17.2 | |
| Trade Receivables | 28.0 | ||
| Inventories | 22.1 | ||
| Property, Plant and Equipment | 44.6 | ||
| Intangible Assets | 37.8 | ||
| Goodwill | 58.7 | ||
| Other Noncurrent Assets | 2.5 | ||
| Total Assets Acquired | $ | 210.9 | |
| Accounts Payable | 16.7 | ||
| Current Liabilities | 14.2 | ||
| Long-Term Liabilities | 10.0 | ||
| Net Assets Acquired | $ | 170.0 | |
| Fair Value | Weighted Average Useful Life (Years) | |||||||||||||
Trademarks(1) | $ | 225.0 | 10 | |||||||||||
Customer Relationships(2) | 1,519.0 | 17 | ||||||||||||
Technology(3) | 87.0 | 12 | ||||||||||||
| Total Identifiable Intangible Assets | $ | 1,831.0 | ||||||||||||
The fair value estimates for identifiable intangible assets are preliminary and are based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset.
(1) The Rexnord PMC business Trademarks were valued using the relief from royalty method, which considers both the market approach and the income approach.
(2) The fair value of Customer Relationships was valued using a multi-period excess earnings method, a form of the income approach, which incorporates the estimated future cash flows to be generated from the Rexnord PMC business's existing customer base.
(3) The Rexnord PMC business Technology were valued using the relief from royalty method, which considers both the market approach and the income approach.
The intangible assets related to definite-lived customer relationships, trademarks and technology are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which had estimated weighted-average useful lives of 17 years, 10 years and 12 years, respectively, at acquisition.
The Company believes that the amounts of purchased intangible assets recorded represent the preliminary fair values and approximates the amounts a market participant would pay for these intangible assets as of the acquisition date.
Leases, including right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities
Lease liabilities were measured as of the acquisition date at the present value of future minimum lease payments over the remaining lease term and the incremental borrowing rate of the Company as if the acquired leases were new leases as of the acquisition date. ROU assets recorded within “Operating Lease Assets” are equal to the amount of the lease liability at the acquisition date adjusted for any off-market terms of the lease. The remaining lease term was based on the remaining term at the acquisition date plus any renewal or extension options that the Company is reasonably certain will be exercised.
Pension and Other Post Retirement Benefits
The Rexnord PMC business recognized a pretax net liability representing the net funded status of the Rexnord PMC business’s defined-benefit pension and other postretirement benefit (“OPEB”) plans. See Note 8for further information on the pension and OPEB arrangements.
Long-Term Debt
In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, the Company entered into certain financing arrangements as indicated in Note 7. The proceeds of the Land Term Facility, $487.0 million, were drawn by Land in a single drawing to fund a payment from Land to a subsidiary of Zurn in connection with the Rexnord Transaction.
The fair value for long term debt was determined based on the total indebtedness as the debt consummated at the time of closing of the acquisition.
Deferred Income Tax Assets and Liabilities
The acquisition was structured as a merger and therefore, the Company assumed the historical tax basis of the Rexnord PMC business’s assets and liabilities. The deferred income tax assets and liabilities include the expected future federal, state, and foreign tax consequences associated with temporary differences between the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the respective tax bases. Tax rates utilized in calculating deferred income taxes generally represent the enacted statutory tax rates at the effective date of the acquisition in the jurisdictions in which legal title of the underlying asset or liability resides. See Note 11 for further information related to income taxes.
Noncontrolling Interests
71
As of the date of acquisition, the Company assumed the noncontrolling interest in two subsidiaries. The carrying values of the noncontrolling interests approximates the fair value of as of the acquisition date.
Other DisclosuresAssets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed (excluding Goodwill)
The Company utilized the carrying values, net of allowances, to value accounts receivable and accounts payable as well as other current assets and liabilities as it was determined that carrying values represented the fair value of those items at the acquisition date. With the exception of the receivable allowance to align Rexnord PMC business's reserve policy to the Company's policy, to reflect the best estimate at the acquisition date of the contractual cash flows expected to be collected
Goodwill
The excess of the consideration for the acquisition over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies and expanded market opportunities from combining the Company’s operations with those of the Rexnord PMC business. The goodwill created in the acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
Transaction Costs
The Company incurred transaction-related costs of approximately $64.4 million for the year ended January 1, 2022. These costs were associated with legal and professional services and were recognized as Operating expenses in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Upon the consummation the Rexnord Transaction, the indebtedness contemplated by the Land Commitment Letter and Land Term Facility became indebtedness of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and, in connection therewith, the Land Credit Agreement was amended and restated (the "A&R Land Credit Agreement") to add the Company as a party to the A&R Land Credit Agreement and as a guarantor of the obligations of Land thereunder. The subsidiaries of the Company that provided a guaranty of the obligations under the Credit Agreement also entered into a subsidiary guaranty agreement with respect to the obligations under the A&R Land Credit Agreement. Additionally, Land and any subsidiary of Land that provided a guaranty under the Land Term Facility have also entered into the subsidiary guaranty agreement with respect to the Credit Agreement. The loans under the Land Term Facility will bear interest at floating rates based upon a reserve adjusted LIBOR rate or, at the Company's election, an alternate base rate plus, in each case an applicable margin determined by reference to the Company's consolidated funded debt (net of certain cash and cash equivalents) to EBITDA ratio. Immediately following the completion of the Rexnord Transaction, the Company had approximately $1.5 billion outstanding under the Credit Agreement, comprised of approximately $380.0 million outstanding under the revolving commitments, approximately $620.0 million outstanding under the term loan commitments under the Credit Agreement, and $486.0 million under the A&R Land Credit Agreement. The A&R Land Credit Agreement contains customary events of default and financial and other covenants, including (i) a maximum leverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of the Company’s consolidated funded debt to EBITDA) as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of 4.00 to 1.00; and (ii) a minimum interest coverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of EBITDA to the Company’s consolidated cash interest expense) of 3.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter.
As of January 1, 2022, the Company had $486.8 million of borrowings under the Land Term Facility. The weighted average interest rate on the Land Term Facility was 1.3% during the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022.

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 $10.1$9.8 million, $9.3$7.6 million and $8.7$8.9 million in fiscal 2018,2021, fiscal 20172020 and fiscal 2016,2019, respectively.

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.

In 2021, the Company's investment strategy shifted from achieving moderately aggressive growth to implementing a dynamic de-risking strategy designed to allow the plans to attain and/or maintain fully funded status levels while reducing volatility. Accordingly, allocation targets have been established to fit this strategy, with fixed income allocations increasing in response to increased funded ratio thresholds along a glidepath. The overall fixed income portfolio shall be invested in such a manner that its interest rate sensitivity correlates highly with that of the liabilities of the plans, and other assets classes are intended to provide additional return with associated higher levels of risk. 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. Prior to 2021, 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 planits 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 mutualMutual funds are valued at the unadjusted quoted market prices for the securities. Real estate fundinterest values are determined using model-based techniques that include relative value analysis and discounted cash flow techniques. Certain commonCommon collective trust funds and limited partnership interests are valued based on the net asset value ("NAV"(“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 collective trust funds and short-term investment funds, comprised of cash and money market funds, are valued at their respective NAVspublished market prices as reported by the funds daily. Certain international plans hold insurance contracts. The fair value of these contracts is calculated by projecting expected future cash flows from the contract and discounting them to present value based on current market rates. The contracts are included within Level 3 of the hierarchy as the assumptions used to project expected future cash flows are based on actuarial estimates and are unobservable.

The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit pension plans was $244.0$580.9 million and $251.7$292.8 million as of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 and December 30, 2017,January 2, 2021, respectively.
The accumulated benefit obligation exceeded plan assets for all pension plans as of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 and December 30, 2017.January 2, 2021.
The following weighted average assumptions were used to determine the projected benefit obligation as of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 and December 30, 2017,January 2, 2021, respectively:
| 2021 | 2020 | ||||||||||
| Discount Rate | 2.7% | 2.6% | |||||||||
| 2018 | 2017 | ||
| Discount Rate | 4.4% | 3.8% | |
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 29, 2018January 1, 2022 and December 30, 2017.January 2, 2021.

(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 1 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 unit awards ("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, and 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 NPVnet present value of dividends as of the grant date depending on the performance criteria for the award.

Unrecognized tax benefits as of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 amount to $6.5$8.8 million, all of which would impact the effective income tax rate if recognized.
Potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in income tax expense. During fiscal years 2018, 20172021, 2020 and 2016,2019, the Company recognized approximately $0.2$(1.4) million, $(0.2)$0.4 million and $0.2$0.5 million in net interest (income) expense, respectively. The Company had approximately $1.9$1.3 million, $1.7$2.7 million and $1.9$2.3 million of accrued interest as of December 29, 2018, December 30, 2017January 1, 2022, January 2, 2021 and December 31, 2016,28, 2019, respectively.
96
Due to statute expirations, approximately $0.4$2.2 million of the unrecognized tax benefits, including accrued interest, could reasonably change in the coming year.
With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to US federal and state/local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2013,2018, and the Company is no longer subject to non-US income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2011.2015. The Company is under audit in Italy and Germany for tax periods between 2015 – 2018 related to Rexnord PMC business entities arising before the Rexnord Transaction. The Company has been indemnified by Zurn for any future liability arising from these audits. Any other liabilities arising from tax years before the Rexnord Transaction relating to the Rexnord PMC business entities would be similarly indemnified.
As of December 29, 2018,January 1, 2022, the Company had approximately $13.1$8.8 million of tax effected net operating losses in various jurisdictions with a portion expiring over a period of up to 15 years and the remaining without expiration. As of December 30, 2017,January 2, 2021, the Company had approximately $12.9$9.2 million of tax effected net operating losses in various jurisdictions with a portion expiring over a period up to 15 years and the remaining without expiration.
Valuation allowances totaling $4.9$5.3 million and $5.9$7.4 million as of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 and December 30, 2017,January 2, 2021, respectively, have been established for deferred income tax assets primarily related to certain subsidiary loss carryforwards that may not be realized. 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 revalued its valuation allowance calculations and policies in relation to the Rexnord Transaction and released a net valuation allowance of $3.1 million.
The Company has been granted tax holidays for some of its Chinese subsidiaries. TheseThe majority of these tax holidays will expire in 2020 and are renewableat the end of 2022. All tax holidays will be renewed subject to certain conditions with which the Company expects to comply. In 2018,2021, these holidays decreased the Provision for Income Taxes by $4.7$4.2 million.
The Company continues to treat approximately $103.5$169.9 million of earnings from certain foreign entities as permanently reinvested and has not recorded a deferred tax liability for the local withholding taxes of approximately $15.8$17.0 million on those earnings. The Company evaluated the permanent reinvestment assertion related to the Rexnord PMC business and is not making an assertion for the taxes associated with the repatriation of any Rexnord PMC business non-U.S. earnings.A $5.9 million deferred tax liability with no effective rate related to these earnings was included in the net identifiable assets acquired from the Rexnord Transaction.
As a result of the Company's acquisition of the Rexnord PMC business, it is entitled to indemnification from third parties to agreements with the Rexnord PMC business against certain contingent liabilities of the Rexnord PMC business, including certain pre-closing environmental liabilities.
The Company believes that, pursuant to the transaction documents related to the Rexnord PMC business' acquisition of the Stearns business from Invensys plc ("Invensys"), Invensys (now known as Schneider Electric) is obligated to defend and indemnify us with respect to the matters described below relating to the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site and to various asbestos claims. The indemnity obligations relating to the matters described below are subject, together with indemnity obligations relating to other matters, to an overall dollar cap equal to the purchase price, which is an amount in excess of $900 million. In the event that the Company is unable to recover from Invensys with respect to the matters below, it may be entitled to
97
indemnification from Zurn, subject to certain limitations. The following paragraphs summarize the most significant actions and proceedings:
•In 2002, the Company's subsidiary, Rexnord Industries, LLC ("Rexnord Industries") was named as a potentially responsible party ("PRP"), together with at least ten other companies, at the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site, Downers Grove, DuPage County, Illinois (the "Site"), by the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA"), and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("IEPA"). Rexnord Industries' Downers Grove property is situated within the Ellsworth Industrial Complex. The USEPA and IEPA allege there have been one or more releases or threatened releases of chlorinated solvents and other hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants at the Site, allegedly including but not limited to a release or threatened release on or from Rexnord Industries' property. The relief sought by the USEPA and IEPA includes further investigation and potential remediation of the Site and reimbursement of USEPA's past costs. In early 2020, Rexnord Industries entered into an administrative order with the USEPA to do remediation work on its Downers Grove property. Rexnord Industries' allocated share of past and future costs related to the Site, including for investigation and/or remediation, could be significant. All previously pending property damage and personal injury lawsuits against Rexnord Industries related to the Site have been settled or dismissed. Pursuant to its indemnity obligation, Invensys continues to defend Rexnord Industries in known matters related to the Site, including the costs of the remediation work pursuant to the 2020 administrative order, and has paid 100% of the costs to date. This indemnification right would not protect Rexnord Industries against liabilities related to environmental conditions that were unknown to Invensys at the time of the acquisition of the Stearns business from Invensys.
•Multiple lawsuits (with approximately 300 claimants) are pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain brakes and clutches previously manufactured by the Rexnord PMC business' Stearns brand of brakes and clutches and/or its predecessor owners. Invensys and FMC, prior owners of the Stearns business, have paid 100% of the costs to date related to the Stearns lawsuits. Similarly, the Rexnord PMC business' Prager subsidiary is the subject of claims by multiple claimants alleging personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in a product allegedly manufactured by Prager. However, all these claims are currently on the Texas Multi-district Litigation inactive docket, and the Company does not believe that they will become active in the future. To date, the Rexnord PMC business' insurance providers have paid 100% of the costs related to the Prager asbestos matters. We believe that the combination of the Company's insurance coverage and the Invensys indemnity obligations will cover any future costs of these matters.
In connection with the Company's acquisition the of Rexnord PMC business, transaction documents related to the Rexnord PMC business’ acquisition of The Falk Corporation from Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation were assigned to Rexnord Industries, and provide Rexnord Industries with indemnification against certain products related asbestos exposure liabilities. The Company believes that, pursuant to such indemnity obligations, Hamilton Sundstrand is obligated to defend and indemnify Rexnord Industries with respect to asbestos claims described below, and that, with respect to these claims, such indemnity obligations are not subject to any time or dollar limitations.
The following paragraph summarizes the most significant actions and proceedings for which Hamilton Sundstrand has accepted responsibility:
•Rexnord Industries is a defendant in multiple lawsuits pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain clutches and drives previously manufactured by The Falk Corporation. The ultimate outcome of these lawsuits cannot presently be determined. Hamilton Sundstrand is defending Rexnord Industries in these lawsuits pursuant to its indemnity obligations and has paid 100% of the costs to date.
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.
98
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 fiscal 20182021 and fiscal 20172020 (in millions):

(13) Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed using derivative instruments are commodity price risk, currency exchange risk, and interest rate risk. Forward contracts on certain commodities are entered into to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of materials used in the Company's manufacturing process. Forward contracts on certain currencies are entered into to manage forecasted cash flows in certain foreign currencies. Interest rate swaps are utilized to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company's floating rate borrowings.
The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to various financial agreements, including its commodity hedging transactions, foreign currency exchange contracts and interest rate swap agreements. Exposure to counterparty credit risk is managed by limiting counterparties to major international banks and financial institutions meeting established credit guidelines and continually monitoring their compliance with the credit guidelines. The Company does not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk. 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. The Company designates commodity forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases of commodities, currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency cash flows and interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of forecasted LIBOR-based interest payments. There were no significant collateral deposits on derivative financial instruments as of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 or December 30, 2017.January 2, 2021.
Cash flow hedges
As of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 and December 30, 2017,January 2, 2021, the Company had $(2.1)$5.6 million and $(2.0)$3.7 million,, net of tax, of derivative lossesgains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings.

(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 | |||||||||||||||||||
103
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 29, 2018January 1, 2022 and December 30, 2017,January 2, 2021, respectively (in millions):

Interest rate swaps are valued based on the discounted cash flows using the LIBOR forward yield curve for an instrument with similar contractual terms. Foreign currency forwards are valued based on exchange rates quoted by domestic and foreign banks for similar instruments. Commodity forwards are valued based on observable market transactions of forward commodity prices.
The Company did not change its valuation techniques during fiscal 2018.2021.

Based upon their evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 29, 2018January 1, 2022 to ensure that (a) information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and (b) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
