FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact they use words such as “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance or events. We have also included forward looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q concerning, among other things, our strategy, goals, plans and projections regarding our financial position, liquidity and capital resources, results of operations, market position and product development. These statements are based on current estimates that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, our actual results could vary materially from our current expectations. There are a number of factors that could cause our actual results to differ from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. They include: economic recession; our ability to achieve all anticipated benefits of restructuring initiatives; our foreign operations and international markets, such as currency exchange rates, different regulatory environments, trade barriers, exchange controls, and social and political instability; changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate, including environmental, health and safety regulations; potential for future goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges; our ability to protect and defend our intellectual property; continuity and security of information technology infrastructure; competition; our ability to retain our management and employees; demands on management resources; availability and cost of the raw materials we use to manufacture our products; product liability claims; integrating acquisitions and achieving the expected savings and synergies; global or regional catastrophic events; demand for and market acceptance of our products; business divestitures; energy costs; commodity prices; labor relations; and implementation of environmental remediation matters. We provide additional information about many of the specific risks we face in the “Risk Factors” Section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. We can give no assurance that any goal or plan set forth in forward-looking statements can be achieved and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
   




1.ORGANIZATION
Kennametal Inc. was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1943. Kennametal Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, Kennametal or the Company) are a leading global manufacturer and supplier of tooling, engineered components and advanced materials consumed in production processes. We believe that our reputation for manufacturing excellence, as well as our technological expertise and innovation we deliver in our products and services, helps us to achieve a leading position in our primary markets. End users of our products include metalworking and machinery manufacturers and suppliers across a diverse array of industries, including the aerospace, defense, transportation, machine tool, light machinery and heavy machinery, as well as producers and suppliers in a number of equipment-intensive industries such as coal mining, road construction and quarrying, as well as oil and gas exploration, refining, production and supply. Our end users' applications range from airframes to mining operations, engines to oil wells and turbochargers to processing.
In order to take advantage of the growth opportunities of our WIDIA brand, we implemented a new operating structure.
A key attribute of the new structure is the establishment of the WIDIA operating segment. In order to better leverage the opportunities that lie in this business, in addition to being more agile and competitive in the marketplace, we are placing higher levels of focus, determination and leadership in the business. The Industrial and WIDIA segments in 2017 were formed from the 2016 Industrial segment. We operate twonow have three global business segments consisting ofreportable operating segments: Industrial, WIDIA, and Infrastructure.
 
2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements, which include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries, should be read in conjunction with our 20152016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 20152016 was derived from the audited balance sheet included in our 20152016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim statements are unaudited; however, we believe that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods were made and all adjustments are normal recurring adjustments. The results for the sixthree months ended December 31,September 30, 2016 and 2015 and 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal year. Unless otherwise specified, any reference to a “year”���year” is to a fiscal year ended June 30. For example, a reference to 20162017 is to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016.2017. When used in this Form 10-Q, unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Kennametal Inc. and its subsidiaries.

3.NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Adopted
In April 2014,November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance on reporting discontinued operations and disclosures of disposals of components of an entity. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Additionally, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of discontinued operations. The new guidance also requires disclosure of the pre-tax income attributable to a disposal of a significant part of an organization that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. This guidance was effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2015. The transaction outlined in Note 5 was evaluated under this guidance.
Issued
In November 2015, the FASB issued new guidance on balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. The amendments in this Updateguidance require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position, as opposedin comparison to the currentprevious practice of separating deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts on the balance sheet. We adopted this guidance July 1, 2016 on a prospective basis. Therefore, prior period balance sheets were not retrospectively adjusted. Current deferred tax assets of $26.7 million and current deferred tax liabilities of $0.6 million are reported in the June 30, 2016 balance sheet.
In April 2015, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation of debt issuance costs.

Issued
In August 2016, the FASB issued guidance on classification of certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flow. The guidance addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. This guidance is effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2018. We are in the process of assessing the impact the adoption of this guidance will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

5.4.DIVESTITURESUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW DISCLOSURES

During the three months ended December 31, 2015, Kennametal completed its transaction to sell all of the outstanding capital stock of: Kennametal Extrude Hone LLC and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Kennametal Stellite S.r.l. (Bellusco, Italy), Kennametal Stellite S.p.A. (Milan, Italy), Kennametal Stellite GmbH (Koblenz, Germany); and all of the assets of the businesses of: Tricon (manufacturing operations in Birmingham, Alabama; Chicago, Illinois; and Elko, Nevada), Landis (manufacturing operation in Waynesboro, Pennsylvania); and all of the assets located at the Biel, Switzerland manufacturing facility ("non-core businesses") to Madison Industries for an aggregate price of $61.1 million cash, net of cash sold and working capital settlements. A portion of the transaction proceeds were used to pay down revolver debt with the remaining balance being held as cash on hand.

The net book value of these non-core businesses immediately prior to the transaction was $182.5 million, which includes the impact of cumulative translation adjustments. We recognized a pre-tax loss on the sale of $133.3 million during the three months ended December 31, 2015 which included the impact of working capital adjustments and deal costs. Charges of $126.0 million and $7.3 million were recorded in the Infrastructure and Industrial segments, respectively. The pre-tax income attributable to the non-core businesses was assessed and determined to be immaterial for disclosure for the periods presented.

6.5.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels to prioritize the inputs used in valuations, as defined below:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable.
As of December 31, 2015,September 30, 2016, the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:

 (1) Currency derivatives are valued based on observable market spot and forward rates and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

There have been no changes in classification and transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy in the current period. The fair value of contingent consideration payable that was classified as Level 3 relatesat June 30, 2016 related to our probability assessments of expected future milestone targets, primarily associated with product delivery, related to a previous acquisition. During the the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company paid the remaining $6.6 million in conjunction with achieved milestone targets. The contingent consideration is to be paid over the next 12 months and iswas recorded in other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company reassessed this contingent consideration and determined that an adjustment of $1.4 million to reduce the fair value of the remaining contingent consideration was necessary during the six months ended December 31, 2015 due to a return of inventory to the seller during the period.sheet at June 30, 2016. No other changes in the expected outcome have occurred during the sixthree months ended December 31, 2015.September 30, 2016.
 
7.6.DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As part of our financial risk management program, we use certain derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and, therefore, hold no derivative instruments for trading purposes. We account for derivative instruments as a hedge of the related asset, liability, firm commitment or anticipated transaction, when the derivative is specifically designated and qualifies as a hedge of such items. Our objective in managing foreign exchange exposures with derivative instruments is to reduce volatility in cash flow. We measure hedge effectiveness by assessing the changes in the fair value or expected future cash flows of the hedged item. The ineffective portions are recorded in other (income) expense, net.
The fair value of derivatives designated and not designated as hedging instruments in the condensed consolidated balance sheet are as follows:

Certain currency forward contracts that hedge significant cross-border intercompany loans are considered as other derivatives and therefore do not qualify for hedge accounting. These contracts are recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheet, with the offset to other (income) expense, net.

CASH FLOW HEDGES
Range forward contracts (a transaction where both a put option is purchased and a call option is sold) are designated as cash flow hedges and hedge anticipated cash flows from cross-border intercompany sales of products and services. Gains and losses realized on these contracts at maturity are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and are recognized as a component of other expense, (income), net when the underlying sale of products or services is recognized into earnings. The notional amount of the contracts translated into U.S. dollars at December 31, 2015September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015,2016, was $61.0$71.5 million and $53.8$53.3 million,, respectively. The time value component of the fair value of range forward contracts is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Assuming the market rates remain constant with the rates at December 31, 2015,September 30, 2016, we expect to recognize into earnings in the next 12 months $0.4 millionan immaterial amount of income on outstanding derivatives.
The following represents gains and losses related to cash flow hedges:

11.10.INVENTORIES
We used the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of valuing inventories for 4745 percent and 4744 percent of total inventories at December 31, 2015September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015,2016, respectively. Since inventory valuations under the LIFO method are based on an annual determination of quantities and costs as of June 30 of each year, the interim LIFO valuations are based on our projections of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Therefore, the interim financial results are subject to any final year-end LIFO inventory adjustments.

12.ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain of our locations.
Superfund Sites WeAmong other environmental laws, we are involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at various sitessubject to the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (Superfund), under which we have been designated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) as a potentially responsible party (PRP) with respect to environmental remedial costs at certain Superfund sites. For certainWe have evaluated our claims and liabilities associated with these Superfund sites based upon best currently available information. We believe our environmental accruals are adequate to cover our portion of thesethe environmental remedial costs at the Superfund sites where we have evaluatedbeen designated a PRP, to the claimsextent these expenses are probable and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites, proceedings are in the very early stages and have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate costreasonably estimable.

Other Environmental Matters We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental issues. At December 31, 2015September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015,2016, the balances of these reserves were $12.2 million and $12.6 million.$12.5 million. These reserves represent anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues.
The reserves we have established for environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the costs of addressing all identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the USEPA, other governmental agencies and by the PRP groups in which we are participating. Although the reserves currently appear to be sufficient to cover these environmental liabilities, there are uncertainties associated with environmental liabilities, and we can give no assurance that our estimate of any environmental liability will not increase or decrease in the future. The reserved and unreserved liabilities for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government on these matters.
We maintain a Corporate Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Department to monitor compliance with environmental regulations and to oversee remediation activities. In addition, we have designated EHS coordinators who are responsible for each of our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EHS Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we review financial provisions and reserves for environmental contingencies and adjust these reserves when appropriate.

14.13.INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rates for the three months ended December 31,September 30, 2016 and 2015 and 2014 were 29.7 percent (benefit on a loss) and 12.729.9 percent (provision on a loss), respectively. The effective income tax rates for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were 27.7 percent (benefit on a loss) and 20.1292.8 percent (provision on a loss), respectively. The change in both periods was primarily driven by the asset impairment charges recordeda discrete tax charge in the current and prior year quarters, the tax impact onquarter for the sale of certain non-core businesses and a loss in the U.S. in the current quarter lower relative U.S. current year earnings compared with the restfor which we could not record a tax benefit due to a full valuation allowance on our U.S deferred tax assets as of the world where the tax rates are generally lower and favorable effectsfourth quarter of the permanent extension of the credit for increasing research activities contained in the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015 that was enacted during the current quarter.fiscal 2016.

15.14.EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while diluted earnings per share is calculated to reflect the potential dilution that would occur related to the issuance of capital stock under stock option grants and restricted stock units. The difference between basic and diluted earnings per share relates solely to the effect of capital stock options and restricted stock units.

For the three and six months ended December 31,September 30, 2016 and 2015, and December 31, 2014, the effecteffects of unexercised capital stock options and unvested restricted stock units waswere anti-dilutive as a result of a net losslosses in the periods and therefore hashave been excluded from diluted shares outstanding as well as from the diluted earnings per share calculation.

18.17.GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired companies. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested at least annually for impairment. We perform our annual impairment tests during the June quarter in connection with our annual planning process, unless there are impairment indicators based on the results of an ongoing cumulative qualitative assessment that warrant a test prior to that. We evaluate the recoverability of goodwill for each of our reporting units by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying value. The fair values of our reporting units are determined using a combination of a discounted cash flow analysis and market multiples based upon historical and projected financial information. We apply our best judgment when assessing the reasonableness of the financial projections used to determine the fair value of each reporting unit. We evaluate the recoverability of indefinite-lived intangible assets using a discounted cash flow analysis based on projected financial information. This evaluation is sensitive to changes in market interest rates and other external factors.

Identifiable assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, we reorganized our operating structure in a manner that changed the composition of our reporting units. The Industrial and WIDIA reporting units in fiscal 2017 were formed from the fiscal 2016 Industrial reporting unit. In connection with this reporting unit realignment, during the three months ended September 30, 2016 we updated our goodwill impairment assessment based on a quantitative analysis. We evaluated the goodwill of our reporting units immediately prior to and after the realignment and concluded in both cases that there was no impairment. We allocated our goodwill from the former Industrial segment to the current Industrial and WIDIA segments using a relative fair value approach. The restated Industrial reporting unit passed the goodwill impairment test with fair value substantially exceeded the carrying value. The new WIDIA reporting unit's fair value approximates its carrying value.
See Note 18 for further discussion regarding the Company's segments.
We are currently exploring strategic alternatives for one of our non-core Infrastructure businesses. The estimated net book value of the business is approximately $30 million as of September 30, 2016. As the strategic direction has not yet been determined for this business, the Company cannot determine if additional impairment charges will be incurred.
A summary of the carrying amount of goodwill attributable to each segment, as well as the changes in such, is as follows:

2016 December Quarter Impairment Charge
Late in the December quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company experienced a further unexpected deterioration in customer demand in many of its end markets and certain geographies. Industrial production indices in the US and China have declined, as well as further reductions in mining and oil and gas activity. In view of these declines and the significant impact on our near term financial forecasts as well as a significant and sustained decline in the Company’s stock price, we determined an interim impairment test of our goodwill and other long-lived assets of our Industrial and Infrastructure reporting units was required. As a result of this interim test, we recorded a preliminary non-cash pre-tax impairment charge during the three months ended December 31, 2015 of $106.1 million in the Infrastructure segment, of which $105.7 million was for goodwill and $0.4 million was for an indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset. We also recorded a preliminary non-cash pre-tax impairment charge during the three months ended December 31, 2015 of $2.3 million in the Industrial segment for an indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset. These impairment charges are recorded in restructuring and asset impairment charges in our condensed consolidated statements of income. There is $298.0 million of goodwill at the Industrial reporting unit. The fair value exceeds the carrying value by approximately 70 percent, a decrease of approximately 20 percentage points from the fiscal 2015 annual impairment valuation. The Infrastructure reporting unit goodwill impairment charge is preliminary and subject to finalization of fair values related to intangibles and property, plant and equipment, which we expect to complete in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The Infrastructure segment has no remaining goodwill recorded.

During the December quarter, we also performed a preliminary review of our identifiable assets with finite lives and preliminarily determined that the assets were not impaired. This review is subject to finalization using consistent assumptions as used in our aforementioned 2016 December quarter goodwill impairment valuation, which we expect to complete in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

Divestiture Impact on Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
During the three months ended December 31, 2015, we completed the sale of non-core businesses, see Note 5. As a result of this transaction, goodwill decreased by $1.1 million and $6.5 million in our Industrial and Infrastructure segments, respectively. These decreases are recorded in the loss on divestiture account in our condensed consolidated statements of income.

2015 December Quarter Impairment Charge
As previously disclosed, we recorded a non-cash pre-tax impairment charge during the three months ended December 31, 2014 of $376.5 million in the Infrastructure segment, of which $375.0 million was for goodwill and $1.5 million was for an indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset.

The further acceleration or extended persistence of the current downturn in the global end markets could have a further negative impact on our business and financial performance. We cannot provide assurance that we will achieve all of the anticipated benefits from restructuring actions we have taken and will continue to take. If we are unable to effectively restructure our operations in the light of evolving market conditions, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We are currently exploring strategic alternatives for one of our non-core Infrastructure businesses. The estimated net book value of the business is approximately $40 million as of December 31, 2015. As the strategic direction has not yet been determined for this business, the business is classified as held and used, and the Company cannot determine if additional impairment charges will be incurred.

OurYear-over-year comparative operating results were negatively impacted byreflect incremental restructuring and related charges, the loss on divestiture,negative impacts of unfavorable mix in all segments, organic sales decline and higher employment-related costs, offset by the positive effects of lower fixed cost absorption, unfavorable mix and unfavorable currency exchange, offset partially by lower goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges,raw material costs, incremental restructuring benefits and lower raw material costs.

During the quarter the Company completed the sale of several non-core businesses related to certain castings, steel-plate fabrication and deburring for an aggregate price of approximately $70 million prior to working capital adjustments, or $61.1 million including working capital adjustments of approximately $9 million. Annual sales for these non-core businesses were approximately $220 million. A portionslightly better productivity. Our cost reduction initiatives are mitigating challenging end market conditions. We have identified 75 percent of the transaction proceeds were usedtargeted employment reduction of 1,000, corresponding to pay down revolver debtapproximately 65 percent of the estimated annualized savings associated with the remaining balance being held as cash on hand. The transaction resulted in a pre-tax loss on the sale of approximately $133.3 million.

We reported current quarter loss per diluted share of $2.12, which includes $1.20 per share of loss on divestiture, $0.98 per share of goodwill and other intangible assets impairment charges and $0.08 per share of restructuring and related charges.

We generated cash flow from operating activities of $104.5 million and $135.3 million during the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease is due primarily to lower cash earnings, net of tax, partially offset by improved working capital management. Capital expenditures were $61.2 million and $54.7 million during the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

We invested further in technology and innovation to continue delivering a high level of new products to our customers. Research and development expenses included in operating expense totaled $10.3 million and $20.3 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2015, respectively.

this initiative.
The permanent savings that we are realizing from restructuring are the result of programs that we have undertaken over the past 2721 months. Pre-tax benefits from these restructuring actions reachedwere approximately $19$18 million in the current quarter, due to rationalization of certain manufacturing facilities and employment and cost reduction programs, of which approximately $13$9 million were incremental to the same quarter one year ago. Approximate savings since inceptionRefer to the Results of Continuing Operations section of Item 2 for further discussion and analysis of our restructuring programs.
We reported current quarter loss per diluted share of $0.27, which includes $0.38 per share of restructuring programs reached $77 millionand related charges. Loss per diluted share of $0.08 in the quarter.prior year quarter included $0.14 per share of restructuring and related charges and $0.08 per share of divestiture-related charges. Overall results were mostly in-line with our expectations, with the exception of the tax rate variation driven primarily by jurisdictional mix and statutory profitability by geography.

We generated cash flow from operating activities of $21.9 million and $38.7 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease is due primarily to lower cash earnings and comparatively lower reductions in primary working capital, partially offset by lower payments for taxes and pensions. Capital expenditures were $42.3 million and $37.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
We invested further in technology and innovation to continue meeting our customers' needs. Research and development expenses included in operating expense totaled $10.3 million and $10.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016, and 2015 respectively.

Item 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
In order to take advantage of the growth opportunities of our WIDIA brand, we implemented a new operating structure in 2017.



RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

SALES
Sales for the three months ended December 31, 2015 were $524.0 million, a decrease of $151.6 million or 22 percent, from $675.6 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in sales was driven by organic decline due to the weakening of our served end markets of 12 percent, unfavorable currency exchange of 6 percent and 4 percent from divestiture. Excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased by approximately 33 percent in energy, approximately18 percent in earthworks, approximately 12 percent in general engineering, approximately 5 percent in transportation and approximately 1 percent in aerospace and defense markets. On a regional basis excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased 22 percent in the Americas, 12 percent in Asia and 2 percent in Europe.
Sales for the six months ended December 31, 2015 were $1,079.4 million, a decrease of $291.2 million or 21 percent, from $1,370.6 million in the prior year period. The decrease in sales was driven by organic decline of 13 percent, unfavorable currency exchange of 7 percent, and 1 percent due to divestiture. Excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased by approximately 33 percent in energy, approximately 13 percent in earthworks, approximately 13 percent in general engineering, approximately 5 percent in transportation and approximately 2 percent in aerospace and defense markets. On a regional basis excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased 22 percent in the Americas, 10 percent in Asia and 2 percent in Europe.

GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was $140.8 million, a decrease of $58.7 million from $199.5 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to organic sales decline leading to lower fixed cost absorption, unfavorable currency exchange, unfavorable business mix and one month less of gross profit due to the divestiture of non-core businesses, partially offset by lower raw material costs and restructuring benefits. The gross profit margin for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was 26.9 percent, as compared to 29.5 percent generated in the prior year quarter.
Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2015 was $292.0 million, a decrease of $125.5 million from $417.6 million in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to organic sales decline leading to lower fixed cost absorption, unfavorable currency exchange and unfavorable business mix, partially offset by restructuring benefits and lower raw material costs. The gross profit margin for the six months ended December 31, 2015 was 27.1 percent, as compared to 30.5 percent generated in the prior year period.

OPERATING EXPENSE
Operating expense for the three months ended December 31, 2015 decreased $13.9 million or 10.1 percent to $123.6 million as compared to $137.5 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to favorable foreign currency exchange impacts of $7.9 million, restructuring benefits and continued cost reduction actions of approximately $8 million and divestiture impact of $1.9 million.
Operating expense for the six months ended December 31, 2015 decreased $33.1 million or 11.6 percent to $252.8 million as compared to $285.9 million in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to favorable foreign currency exchange impacts of $17.9 million, restructuring benefits and continued cost reduction actions of approximately $15 million and divestiture impact of $2.1 million, offset partially by higher restructuring related charges of $2.3 million.

RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED CHARGES AND ASSET IMPAIRMENT CHARGES
We have recorded restructuring and related charges of $8.9 million and $12.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Of these amounts, restructuring charges totaled $3.5 million and $6.7 million, of which benefits of $0.3 million and $0.1 million were related to inventory and were recorded in cost of goods sold, respectively. Restructuring-related charges of $2.0 million and $2.8 million were recorded in cost of goods sold and $3.4 million and $3.4 million in operating expense for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Item 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)



We have recorded restructuring and related charges of $24.0 million and $20.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Of these amounts, restructuring charges totaled $12.6 million and $8.6 million, of which a benefit of $0.3 million and an expense of $0.2 million were related to inventory and were recorded in cost of goods sold, respectively. Restructuring-related charges of $3.6 million and $6.3 million were recorded in cost of goods sold and $7.8 million and $5.5 million in operating expense for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Total restructuring and related charges since the inception of our restructuring plans through December 31, 2015 were $101.2 million. See Note 8 in our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Note 8).

Phase 1
We are implementing restructuring actions to achieve synergies across Kennametal as a result of the Tungsten Materials Business (TMB) acquisition by consolidating operations among both organizations, reducing administrative overhead and leveraging the supply chain. These restructuring actions are expected to be completed by the end of fiscal 2016 and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures.
Phase 2
We are implementing restructuring actions to streamline the Company's cost structure. These initiatives are expected to enhance operational efficiencies through the rationalization of certain manufacturing facilities as well as other employment and cost reduction programs. These restructuring actions are expected to be completed by December of fiscal 2017 and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures.
Phase 3
We are implementing restructuring actions to further enhance operational efficiencies through an enterprise-wide cost reduction program as well as the consolidation of certain manufacturing facilities. These restructuring actions are expected to be completed by March of fiscal 2017 and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures.
Asset Impairment Charges
We recorded non-cash pre-tax asset impairment charges of $108.5 million and $376.5 million during the three months ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. See Note 18 in our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Note 18).
The further acceleration or extended persistence of the current downturn in the global end markets could have a further negative impact on our business and financial performance. We cannot provide assurance that we will achieve all of the anticipated benefits from restructuring actions we have taken and will continue to take. If we are unable to effectively restructure our operations in the light of evolving market conditions, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We are currently exploring strategic alternatives for one of our non-core Infrastructure businesses. The estimated net book value of the business is approximately $40 million as of December 31, 2015. As the strategic direction has not yet been determined for this business, the business is classified as held and used, and the Company cannot determine if additional impairment charges will be incurred.

LOSS ON DIVESTITURE
During the three months ended December 31, 2015, we completed the divestiture of non-core businesses for net proceeds of $61.1 million and recognized a pre-tax loss on divestiture of $133.3 million. See Note 5 in our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Note 5).

INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2015 decreased $1.2 million to $6.8 million as compared to $8.0 million in the prior year quarter. Interest expense for the six months ended December 31, 2015 decreased $2.4 million to $13.8 million as compared to $16.2 million in the prior year period. The decrease in interest expense in both periods was primarily due to lower year-over-year borrowings.

OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET
Other income, net for the three months ended December 31, 2015, was $0.7 million compared to other expense, net of $2.2 million, for the prior year quarter. The year-over-year change was primarily due to gains on derivatives of $2.5 million in the current year quarter.
Other expense, net for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, was $0.4 million. Current period derivative gains were offset by a loss on sale of assets.

INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rates for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were 29.7 percent (benefit on a loss) and 12.7 percent (provision on a loss), respectively. The effective income tax rates for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were 27.7 percent (benefit on a loss) and 20.1 percent (provision on a loss), respectively. The change in both periods was primarily driven by the asset impairment charges recorded in the current and prior year quarters, the tax impact on the sale of certain non-core businesses in the current quarter, lower relative U.S. current year earnings compared with the rest of the world where the tax rates are generally lower and favorable effects of the permanent extension of the credit for increasing research activities contained in the Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act of 2015 that was enacted during the current quarter.

BUSINESS SEGMENT REVIEW

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

Item 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
   



ForA key attribute of the new structure is the establishment of the WIDIA operating segment. In order to better leverage the opportunities that lie in this business, in addition to being more agile and competitive in the marketplace, we are placing higher levels of focus, determination and leadership in the business. Industrial and WIDIA in 2017 were formed from the 2016 Industrial segment. We now have three reportable operating segments going forward: Industrial, WIDIA and Infrastructure.
In connection with this change, we updated our goodwill impairment assessment based on a quantitative analysis during the three months ended December 31, 2015,September 30, 2016. We evaluated the goodwill of our reporting units immediately prior to and after the realignment and concluded in both cases that there was no impairment. We allocated our goodwill from the former Industrial segment to the current Industrial and WIDIA segments using a relative fair value approach. The restated Industrial reporting unit passed the goodwill impairment test with fair value substantially exceeded the carrying value. The new WIDIA reporting unit's fair value approximates its carrying value. The amount of goodwill allocated to the WIDIA reporting unit is $27.0 million.
We completed Step 1 of the WIDIA goodwill impairment test using both an income approach and a market approach.  The discounted cash flow method was used to measure the fair value of our equity under the income approach. A terminal value utilizing a constant growth rate of cash flows was used to calculate a terminal value after the explicit projection period. The estimates and assumptions used in our calculations include revenue growth rates, expense growth rates, expected capital expenditures to determine projected cash flows, expected tax rates and an estimated discount rate to determine present value of expected cash flows. These estimates are based on historical experiences, our projections of future operating activity and our weighted average cost of capital ("WACC"). The discount rate used was 14.5 percent. In order to determine the discount rate, the Company uses a market perspective WACC approach. The WACC is calculated incorporating weighted average returns on debt and equity from market participants. Therefore, changes in the market, which are beyond the control of the Company, may have an impact on future calculations of estimated fair value. Management forecasts were used for the years ending June 30, 2017-2021, with a residual period growth rate of 3.0 percent. The tax rate used was 25.0 percent. Under the market approach, we estimate the fair value based on market multiples of revenue and earnings of comparable publicly traded companies and comparable transactions of similar companies.
Fair value determinations require considerable judgment and are sensitive to changes in underlying assumptions and factors. As a result, there can be no assurance that the estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible impairment test will prove to be an accurate prediction of the future. Examples of events or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to negatively affect the underlying key assumptions and ultimately impact the estimated fair value of our reporting units may include such items as: (i) a decrease in expected future cash flows, specifically, a decrease in sales decreasedvolume driven by 16a prolonged weakness in consumer demand or other competitive pressures adversely affecting our long term volume trends, unfavorable working capital changes and an inability to successfully achieve our cost savings targets; (ii) inability to achieve all of the anticipated benefits from restructuring actions assumed; (iii) an economic recovery that significantly differs from our assumptions in timing and/or degree; (iv) volatility in the equity and debt markets or other country specific factors which could result in a higher discount rate; and (v) sensitivity to market transaction multiples.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

SALES
Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2016 were $477.1 million, a decrease of $78.2 million or 14 percent, due tofrom $555.4 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in sales was driven by 9 percent decline from divestiture, organic decline of 93 percent and unfavorable currency exchange of 72 percent. Excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased by approximately 3121 percent in earthworks and 8 percent in energy, approximately 9 percent in general engineering, approximately 5 percent in transportation and approximately 3 percent in aerospace and defense. Energy end market activity continued to be weak, adversely impacting the general engineering end market where the Company believes there was destocking in the indirect channel, particularly in the Americas. Lower sales activity in the transportation end market was also impacted by destocking in Asia. On a segment regional basis excluding the impact of divestiture and currency exchange, sales decreased 15 percent in the Americas and 14 percent in Asia, partially offset by a 14 percent increase in Europe. The sales decrease in the Americas was primarily driven by the performance in the energy and general engineering end markets and to a lesser extent the transportation end market, partially offset by a slight increase in aerospace and defense. The sales decrease in Asia was primarily driven by the energy, general engineering and transportation end markets. The sales increase in Europe was primarily driven by slight increases in general engineering and transportation, partially offset by a decline in aerospace and defense and energy end markets.

For the three months ended December 31, 2015, Industrial operating income decreased by $34.4 million, driven by organic sales decline, lower fixed cost absorption, loss on divestiture of $7.3 million, unfavorable currency exchange, intangible asset impairment of $2.3 million1 percent increases in both general engineering and unfavorable business mix, offset partially by an increase in restructuring program benefits of $9.1 million and lower raw material costs. Industrial operating margin was 2.4 percent compared with 11.2 percent in the prior year.

For the six months ended December 31, 2015, Industrial sales decreased by 17 percent due to unfavorable currency exchange of 9 percent and organic decline of 8 percent. Excludingtransportation. On a regional basis excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased approximately 31 percent in energy, approximately 9 percent in general engineering, approximately 5 percent in transportation and approximately 2 percent in aerospace and defense. Energy end market activity continued to be weak, particularly in oil and gas as rig counts decline, declines in U.S. and China coal mining, as well as declines in process end markets, impacting the general engineering end market where the Company believes there was destocking in the indirect channel, particularly in the Americas. Lower sales activity in the transportation end market was driven by lower light vehicle production levels in China and overall destocking in Asia. On a segment regional basis excluding the impact of divestiture and currency exchange, sales decreased 157 percent in the Americas 10and 2 percent in Asia and remained flatEurope, offset by a 2 percent increase in Europe. The salesAsia.

GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2016 was $143.5 million, a decrease of $7.7 million from $151.2 million in the Americasprior year quarter. The decrease was primarily driven by the performance in the energy, general engineering and transportation end markets anddue to a lesser extent the aerospace and defense. The sales decrease in Asia was primarily driven by the energy, general engineering and transportation end markets, offset partially by gains in aerospace and defense. Sales in Europe had gains in general engineering, which were offset by the energy and aerospace and defense end markets, while transportation remained flat.

For the six months ended December 31, 2015, Industrial operating income decreased by $58.7 million, driven byunfavorable business mix, organic sales decline, lower fixed cost absorption,divestiture impact of $7.7 million and unfavorable currency exchange loss on divestiture of $7.3$2.6 million, intangible asset impairment of $2.3 million and unfavorable mix,partially offset partially by an increase in restructuring program benefits of $15.9 million, lower raw material costs, incremental restructuring benefits of $4.0 million, and a decrease in restructuring charges of $4.5 million.

ForOPERATING EXPENSE
Operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016 decreased $9.4 million or 7.3 percent to $119.9 million as compared to $129.2 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to divestiture impact of $6.3 million, incremental restructuring benefits of $5.7 million, $3.3 million less in restructuring-related charges and favorable foreign currency exchange impacts of $1.6 million, offset partially by $5.9 million higher employment-related costs.

RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED CHARGES
We have recorded restructuring and related charges of $31.7 million and $15.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Of these amounts, restructuring charges totaled $28.6 million and $9.1 million, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2016, an immaterial amount of restructuring charges was related to inventory disposals and were recorded in cost of goods sold. Restructuring-related charges of $2.0 million and $1.6 million were recorded in cost of goods sold and $1.1 million and $4.4 million in operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Total restructuring and related charges since the inception of our restructuring plans through September 30, 2016 were $102.8 million. See Note 7 in our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Note 7).
We are implementing restructuring actions to streamline the Company's cost structure. These initiatives are expected to improve the alignment of our cost structure with the current operating environment through headcount reductions; rationalization and consolidation of certain manufacturing facilities; enhancement of operational efficiencies through an enterprise-wide cost reduction program; and other employment and cost reduction programs. These restructuring actions are currently anticipated to deliver annual ongoing pre-tax savings of $140 million to $155 million once completed by December 31,of fiscal 2019 and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures. The total pre-tax charges for these programs are expected to be in the range of $155 million to $175 million.

INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 Infrastructure sales decreased bywas $7.0 million.

OTHER EXPENSE, NET
Other expense, net for the three months ended September 30, percent,2016, was $0.1 million compared to $1.1 million in the prior year quarter. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to a 20 percent organic sales decline, a 6 percent decline dueloss on the sale of assets in the prior year and transition services related to the divestiture of non-core businesses, partially offset by losses on derivatives and a 4 percent unfavorable currency exchange impact. Excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased by approximately 34 percent in energy, approximately 23 percent in general engineering and approximately 18 percent in earthworks. lower interest income.

INCOME TAXES
The continued weakening in global demand for energy resources and the related over-supply of these commodities, coupled with the economic downturn in Asia, particularly China, has had a significant impact on demandeffective income tax rates for the Company's products. This reduced demand has been most severe in the North American region with the Company's concentration in oilthree months ended September 30, 2016 and gas2015 were 29.9 percent (provision on a loss) and underground mining markets. On a segment regional basis excluding the impact of divestiture and currency exchange, sales decreased 28292.8 percent in the Americas, 10 percent in Europe and 9 percent in Asia.(provision on loss), respectively. The sales decrease in the Americas was driven by the performance in the energy, general engineering and earthworks end markets. The sales decrease in Europechange was primarily driven by the energy end market, offset partially by an increasea discrete tax charge in general engineering and earthworks end markets. The sales decrease in Asia was driven primarily by the general engineering and earthworks end markets offset partially by an increase in the energy end market.

For the three months ended December 31, 2015, Infrastructure operating loss was $237.7 million compared to operating loss of $371.9 million for the prior year period. Operating results for the current period increased by $134.2 million, driven by lower impairment charges in the current verses prior year period. See Note 18. The current quarter also had a loss on divestiture for the sale of non-core businesses of $126.0 million, see Note 5. In addition, operating results were negatively impacted by lower organic sales, lower fixed cost absorption and unfavorable business mix, offset partially by an increasea loss in restructuring program benefits of $3.6 million and lower raw material costs.

For the six months ended December 31, 2015, Infrastructure sales decreased by 27 percent,U.S. in the current quarter for which we could not record a tax benefit due to a 20 percent organic sales decline, a 4 percent unfavorable currency exchange impact and a 3 percent decline due to divestiture. Excludingfull valuation allowance on our U.S deferred tax assets as of the impactfourth quarter of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased by approximately 33 percent in energy, approximately 26 percent in general engineering and approximately 13 percent in earthworks. Sales were lower year-over-year due to persistent weak demand in oil and gas as rig counts decline, underground mining, particularly in the U.S. and China and general engineering. On a segment regional basis excluding the impact of divestiture and currency exchange, sales decreased 28 percent in the Americas, 10 percent in Asia and 5 percent in Europe. The sales decrease in the Americas was driven by the performance in the energy, general engineering and earthworks end markets. The sales decrease in Asia was driven primarily by the general engineering end market, offset partially by an increase in the energy and earthworks end markets. The sales decrease in Europe was primarily driven by the energy end market, offset partially by an increase in general engineering and earthworks end markets.fiscal 2016.

For the six months ended December 31, 2015, Infrastructure operating loss was $246.2 million compared to an operating loss of $352.7 million for the prior year period. Operating results for the current period increased by $106.5 million, primarily driven by lower impairment charges in the current verses prior year period. See Note 18. The current year also had a loss on divestiture for the sale of non-core businesses of $126.0 million, see Note 5. In addition to the aforementioned impairment charge and loss on divestiture, operating results for the current period were negatively impacted by lower organic sales, lower fixed cost absorption and unfavorable mix, offset partially by an increase in restructuring program benefits of $8.1 million and lower raw material costs.

Activity in the aerospace sector remains elevated with sales growing globally. General engineering sales in Americas and Asia have benefited from stability in the indirect channel stock levels, offsetting the general industrial weakness caused by the continued decline in the energy sector. The transportation market was mixed with more projects contributing to higher sales in Asia, partially offset by less favorable conditions in Europe and Americas. On a segment regional basis excluding the impact of divestiture and currency exchange, sales increased 7 percent in Asia and 4 percent in the Americas, offset partially by a decrease of 1 percent in Europe. The sales increase in Asia was primarily driven by the transportation and general engineering end markets and to a lesser extent the aerospace and defense end market, partially offset by a decrease in the energy end market. The sales increase in the Americas was primarily driven by the performance in the general engineering end market and to a lesser extent in the aerospace and defense end market, partially offset by decreases in the energy and transportation end markets. The sales decrease in Europe was primarily driven by the performance in the transportation and energy end markets, offset partially by an increase in the aerospace and defense end market, while general engineering remained flat.
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, Industrial operating income decreased by $15.9 million, driven primarily by $13.3 million more restructuring and related charges, $5.1 million higher employment-related costs and unfavorable mix, partially offset by incremental restructuring benefits of $6.1 million and organic sales growth. Industrial operating margin was 2.1 percent compared with 7.9 percent in the prior year.

Item 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)



For the three months ended September 30, 2016, Infrastructure sales decreased by 31 percent, reflecting a 20 percent decline due to divestiture, a 10 percent organic sales decline and a 1 percent unfavorable currency exchange impact. Excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased by approximately 22 percent in earthworks, 6 percent in energy and 4 percent in general engineering. Key energy markets, particularly in North America, continued to see contraction in the first quarter, with U.S. rig counts declining over 40 percent year-over-year. In addition, conditions in underground mining in North America declined further, with sales down 36 percent year-over-year. As previously disclosed, this weakness is expected to continue for the foreseeable future. On a segment regional basis excluding the impact of divestiture and currency exchange, sales decreased 16 percent in the Americas, 8 percent in Asia and 3 percent in Europe. The sales decrease in the Americas was driven by decreases in earthworks, energy and general engineering end markets. The sales decrease in Asia was driven primarily by the performance in the earthworks end market, offset partially by an increase in the general engineering end market. The sales decrease in Europe was primarily driven by decreases in energy and general engineering end markets, and to a lesser extent the earthworks end market.
For the three months ended September 30, 2016, Infrastructure operating loss was $7.6 million compared to operating loss of $8.4 million for the prior year period. Operating loss for the current period decreased by $0.8 million, due primarily to lower raw material costs and incremental restructuring program benefits of $4 million, offset partially by lower organic sales, unfavorable mix and $4.3 million more restructuring and related charges. Infrastructure operating loss margin was 4.5 percent compared with 3.5 percent in the prior year.

The primary drivers for the decreaseincrease were a decreasean increase in goodwilldeferred income taxes of $119.4$21.4 million and aan increase in other assets of $6.0 million, primarily attributable to an increase in pension plan assets. These increases were partially offset by $4.3 million decrease in other intangible assets, of $70.6 million. The change in goodwillwhich was due to a goodwill impairment charge of $105.7 million in the Infrastructure segment, $7.5 million of goodwill written off as part of the sale of non-core businesses and $6.0 million of unfavorable currency exchange. The change in other intangible assets was due primarily to $52.7 million intangibles sold as part of the sale of non-core businesses, amortization expense of $11.9 million and unfavorable currency exchange effects of $1.8$4.3 million. These decreases were partially offset by $48.8 million increase in deferred income taxes.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

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

Superfund Sites WeAmong other environmental laws, we are involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at various sitessubject to the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (Superfund), under which we have been designated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) as a potentially responsible party (PRP) with respect to environmental remedial costs at certain Superfund sites. For certainWe have evaluated our claims and liabilities associated with these Superfund sites based upon best currently available information. We believe our environmental accruals are adequate to cover our portion of thesethe environmental remedial costs at the Superfund sites where we have evaluatedbeen designated a PRP, to the claimsextent these expenses are probable and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites, proceedings are in the very early stages and have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation, the timing and extent of remedial action that may be required by governmental authorities or the amount of our liability alone or in relation to that of any other PRPs.reasonably estimable.

Other Environmental Matters We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental issues. At December 31, 2015September 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015,2016, the balances of these reserves were $12.2 million and $12.6 million, respectively.$12.5 million. These reserves represent anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues.

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

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

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

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes to our market risk exposures since June 30, 2015.2016.
ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company's management evaluated, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). The Company's disclosure controls were designed to provide a reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, the controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the controls' stated goals. Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance at December 31, 2015September 30, 2016 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

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