REGAL BELOIT CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet of Regal Beloit Corporation (the “Company”) as of ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and (b) unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015~~July 2, 2016, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s ~~2015~~2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March ~~2, 2016.~~1, 2017.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial results have been made. Except as otherwise discussed, such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December ~~31, 2016~~30, 2017.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company uses estimates in accounting for, among other items, allowance for doubtful accounts; excess and obsolete inventory; share-based compensation; acquisitions; product warranty obligations; pension and post retirement assets and liabilities; derivative fair values; goodwill and other asset impairments; health care reserves; retirement benefits; 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.

The Company operates on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31.

~~Change in Accounting Principles~~

As of the beginning of its fiscal year 2016, the Company changed its inventory valuation method for the US inventory of the recently acquired Power Transmission Solutions (“PTS”) business to the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method from the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method. This change affected approximately 9% of the Company’s inventory. The Company believed this change in accounting principle is preferable under the circumstances because LIFO would better match current costs with current revenues since the cost of raw materials has been volatile in recent years, resulting in greater consistency in inventory costing across the organization since LIFO is the method used for the majority of the Company's other US inventory, and better aligns with how management assesses the performance of the business. Because this change in accounting principle was immaterial in all annual or interim prior periods, it was not applied retrospectively. The change did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016.

Also, as of the beginning of its fiscal year 2016, the Company changed its method of calculating LIFO inventories, which represented approximately 51% of the Company’s inventory. The Company reduced the number of LIFO inventory pools to three to align with the Company’s reportable segments. Previously, the Company had 10 LIFO inventory pools, some of which crossed reportable segments. The Company believed this change in accounting principle is preferable under the circumstances because fewer pools will simplify the LIFO calculations, combine inventory items with similarities within a reportable segment, and better align with how management assesses the performance of the businesses. The Company determined that it had the data needed to apply this change in accounting principle prospectively as of the beginning of its fiscal year 2014, but that full retrospective application is impracticable because the data is not available to determine the cumulative effect of the change. Because the effect of applying the change prospectively as of the beginning of fiscal 2014 is immaterial in any annual or interim period in fiscal years 2014 or 2015, the Company applied this change in accounting principle prospectively from the first day of fiscal year 2016.

New Accounting Standards

In ~~October 2016,~~May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ~~(“FASB”~~(the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ~~(“ASU”~~("ASU") ~~No.2016-16,~~2017-09, Stock Compensation - Scope of Modification Accounting. The ASU amends the scope of modification accounting for share-based payment arrangements. The ASU provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards to which ~~removes the prohibition in~~an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") ~~740against~~718. Specifically, an entity would not apply modification accounting if the ~~immediate recognition~~fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the ~~current~~awards are the same immediately before and ~~deferred income tax effects of intra-entity transfers of assets other than inventory. Under~~after the ~~ASU, the selling (transferring)~~

entity is required to recognize a current tax expense or benefit upon transfer of the asset. Similarly, the purchasing (receiving) entity is required to recognize a deferred tax asset or deferred tax liability, as well as the related deferred tax benefit or expense, upon receipt of the asset. For public business entities, themodification. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted ~~for all entities as of the beginning of a fiscal year for which neither the annual or interim (if applicable) financial statements have been issued.~~and prospective application is required. The Company ~~is currently assessing~~plans to adopt this pronouncement for fiscal years beginning December 31, 2017 and will consider the impact that this standard ~~will~~may have on ~~its consolidated financial statements.~~future share based award changes, should they occur.

In ~~August 2016,~~February 2017, the FASB issued ASU ~~No. 2016-15,~~2017-07, ~~Statement~~Compensation - Retirement Benefits: Improving the Presentation of ~~Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts~~Net Periodic Pension Cost and ~~Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force),~~Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost. The ~~new~~ASU amends current guidance to require employers that present a measure of operating income in their statement of income to include only the service cost component of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in operating expenses (together with other employee compensation costs). The other components of net benefit cost, including amortization of prior service cost/credit, and settlement and curtailment effects, are to be included in nonoperating expenses. Employers that do not present a measure of operating income are required to include the service cost component in the same line item as other employee compensation costs. The ASU also stipulates that only the service cost component of net benefit cost is eligible for capitalization. The changes, which respond to input from financial statement users, are intended to ~~reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in~~classify costs according to their natures, and better align the ~~statement~~effect of ~~cash flows. For public business entities, the standard~~defined benefit plans on operating income with International Financial Reporting Standards. The ASU is effective for ~~financial statements issued for fiscal years~~annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, provided that all of the amendments are adopted in the same period. The guidance requires application using a retrospective transition method. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

~~In March 2016 the FASB issued Accounting ASU No. 2016-09,~~ ~~Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting~~.annual periods. The ASU ~~includes multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects~~will impact the components of income before taxes but will not impact the accounting for share-based payments. Implementation and administration may present challenges for companies with significant share-based payment activities and there are various transition methods. The Company is required to adopt the new requirements in the first quarteramount of ~~fiscal 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new requirements on its consolidated financial statements.~~income before taxes.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The core principle of ASU 2016-02 is that an entity should recognize on its balance sheet assets and liabilities arising from a lease. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee

recognize a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as a finance or operating lease. This new accounting guidance is effective for ~~public companies for~~ fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 under a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. The Company has identified a six step process to successfully implement the new Lease ~~standard -~~standard: Form a task force to become experts and take the lead on understanding and implementing the new Lease standard; Update lease inventories; Decide on transition method; Review legal agreements and debt covenants; Consider IT needs; Discuss with stakeholders. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and has commenced the first step of identifying a task force to take the lead in implementing the new Lease standard.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU ~~No.~~ 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, ~~(Topic 606), which outlines~~ a ~~single~~ comprehensive ~~model for entities to use in accounting for~~new revenue ~~arising from contracts with customers and~~recognition standard that supersedes ~~most~~ current revenue recognition ~~guidance, including industry-specific guidance.

This update requires the ~~principle that an entity should~~Company to recognize revenue ~~to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount~~at amounts that ~~reflects~~reflect the consideration to which the ~~entity~~Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or ~~services.

ASU No. 2014-09 (and related updates) will become effective for the Company at the beginning of its 2018 fiscal year. ~~Entities have~~The standard allows the option of using either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach for the adoption of the standard. The Company has identified a four step process to successfully implement the new ~~Revenue~~revenue standard - ~~Complete accounting analysis; Identify system, process~~data gathering, assessment, solution development, and ~~control changes; Implement system, process and control changes; Test controls.~~solution implementation.

~~In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10,~~ ~~Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing~~, which clarifies the identification of performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance in Topic 606. The amendments in ASU No. 2016-10 do not change the core principles of the guidance in Topic 606.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU ~~No. 2016-08,~~2016-09, ~~Revenue~~Compensation-Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new guidance includes multiple provisions intended to simplify various aspects of the accounting for share-based payments. The provisions include:


a.	recording all tax effects associated with stock-based compensation through the income statement, as opposed to recording certain amounts in other paid-in capital, which eliminates the requirement to calculate a "windfall pool";


b.	allowing entities to withhold shares to satisfy the employer's statutory tax withholding requirement up to the highest marginal tax rate applicable to employees rather than the employer's minimum statutory rate, without requiring liability classification for the award;


c.	modifying the requirement to estimate the number of awards that will ultimately vest by providing an accounting policy election to either estimate the number of forfeitures or recognize forfeitures as they occur;


d.	changing certain presentation requirements in the statement of cash flows, including removing the requirement to present excess tax benefits as an inflow from financing activities and an outflow from operating activities, and requiring the cash paid to taxing authorities arising from withheld shares to be classified as a financing activity; and


e.	the assumed proceeds from applying the treasury stock method when computing earnings per share is amended to exclude the amount of excess tax benefits that previously would have been recognized in additional paid-in capital.

The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017. As a result of adopting the standard, the Changes in Operating Assets and Liabilities, Net of Acquisitions and Divestitures line in the Cash Flows From Operating Activities section on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and the Shares Surrendered for Taxes line in the Cash Flows from ~~Contracts~~Financing Activities section were both adjusted by $1.9 million for 2016. The presentation on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for shares surrendered by employees to meet the minimum statutory withholding requirement and excess tax benefits were applied retrospectively. In addition, the Excess Tax Expense from Share-Based Compensation lines in the Cash Flows from Operating Activities section and the Cash Flows from Financing Activities section were removed. The Company removed the excess tax benefits from the calculation of dilutive shares on a prospective basis. In addition, the Company began recording all tax effects associated with ~~Customers (Topic 606) - Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), which amends~~stock-based compensation through the ~~principal-versus-agent implementation guidance in ASU No. 2014-09 (Topic 606). ASU No. 2016-08 clarifies~~income statement on a prospective basis. The Company did not have any awards classified as liability awards due to the ~~principal-versus-agent guidance in Topic 606 and requires~~statutory tax withholding requirements as of January 1, 2017. The Company made an ~~entity~~accounting policy election to ~~determine whether the nature of its promise~~continue to ~~provide goods or services to a customer is performed in a principal or agent capacity and to recognize revenue in a gross or net manner based on its principal/agent designation.~~estimate forfeitures as it had previously.

~~2015 Acquisitions~~

~~PTS~~

On January 30, 2015, the Company acquired PTS for $1,408.9 million in cash through a combination of stock and asset purchases. PTS is a global leader in highly engineered power transmission products and solutions. The business manufactures, sells and services bearings, couplings, gearing, drive components and conveyor systems. PTS is included in the Power Transmission Solutions segment. The Company acquired PTS because management believes it diversifies the Company's end market exposure, provides complementary products, expands and balances the Company's product portfolio, and enhances its margin profile.

~~The acquisition of PTS was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 805,~~ ~~Business Combinations.~~ Assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The fair values of identifiable intangible assets, which were primarily customer relationships, trade names and technology, were based on valuations using the income approach. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies and expected growth opportunities. Approximately 65% of goodwill will be deductible for United States income tax purposes.

~~The purchase price allocation for PTS was as follows (in millions):~~

As of January 30, 2015
Current assets $ 22.5
Trade receivables 67.2
Inventories 108.8
Property, plant and equipment 184.4
Intangible assets 648.2
Goodwill 564.3
Total assets acquired 1,595.4
Accounts payable 57.2
Current liabilities assumed 32.3
Long-term liabilities assumed 97.0
Net assets acquired $ 1,408.9

The valuation of the net assets acquired of $1,408.9 million was classified as Level 3 in the valuation hierarchy (see also Note 14 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the definition of Level 3 inputs). The Company valued property, plant and equipment using both a market approach and a cost approach depending on the asset. Intangible assets were valued using the present value of projected future cash flows and significant assumptions included royalty rates, discount rates, customer attrition and obsolescence factors.

~~The components of Intangible Assets included as part of the PTS acquisition was as follows (in millions):~~

Weighted Average Amortization Period (Years) Gross Value
Amortizable intangible assets
  Customer Relationships 17.0 $ 462.8
  Technology 14.5 63.5
Intangible assets subject to amortization 16.7 526.3
Non-amortizable intangible assets
  Trade Names - 121.9
Intangible assets $ 648.2

Net sales from PTS were $117.7 million and $380.5 million for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, respectively. Net sales from PTS were $128.9 million and $384.7 million for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2015, respectively. Operating income from PTS was $4.6 million and $24.6 million for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, respectively. Operating income from PTS was $10.7 million and $7.7 million for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2015, respectively. Purchase accounting inventory adjustments and transaction costs of $29.8 million reduced PTS operating income for the nine months ended October 3, 2015.

~~Pro Forma Consolidated Results for PTS Acquisition~~

The following supplemental pro forma financial information presents the financial results for the nine months ended October 3, 2015, as if the acquisition of PTS had occurred at the beginning of fiscal year 2015.

5. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

As required, the Company performs an annual impairment test of goodwill as of the end of the October fiscal month or more frequently if events or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of its reporting units below their carrying value. Continued declines in oil and gas, distribution and agricultural end-markets resulted in the Company performing an interim goodwill impairment test for one of its goodwill reporting units during the third quarter of 2016. The results of the interim goodwill impairment test indicated there was no goodwill impairment in the third quarter of 2016.

Amortization of Prior Service Cost and Net Actuarial Loss	0.6			1.0			1.2			1.9
Net Periodic Benefit Cost	$	2.0		$	2.8		$	4.0		$	5.2

The estimated net actuarial loss and prior service cost for post retirement plans that will be amortized from AOCI into net periodic benefit cost during the ~~2016~~2017 fiscal year is ~~$3.1~~$2.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

For the three months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015,~~July 2, 2016, the Company contributed ~~$6.8~~$1.4 million and ~~$0.8~~$1.1 million, respectively, to post retirement plans. For the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015,~~July 2, 2016, the Company contributed ~~$9.0~~$2.2 million and ~~$2.3~~$2.2 million, respectively, to post retirement plans. The Company expects to make total contributions of ~~$9.3~~$4.4 million in ~~2016.~~2017. The Company contributed a total of ~~$4.7~~$10.4 million in fiscal ~~2015.~~2016. The assumptions used in the valuation of the Company’s post retirement plans and in the target investment allocation have remained the same as those disclosed in the Company’s ~~2015~~2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March ~~2, 2016.~~1, 2017.

Beginning in 2016, the Company changed the method used to estimate the service and interest cost components of the net periodic pension and other post retirement benefit costs. The new method uses the spot yield curve approach to estimate the service and interest costs by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve used to determine the benefit obligations to relevant projected cash outflows. The change will not affect the measurement of the total benefit obligations as the change in service and interest costs is offset in the actuarial gains and losses recorded in other comprehensive income. The methodology of selecting a discount rate that matches each plan's cash flows to that of a theoretical bond portfolio yield curve will continue to be used to value the benefit obligation at the end of each year. The Company changed to the new method to provide a more precise measure of interest and service costs by improving the correlation between the projected benefit cash flows and the discrete spot yield curve rates. The Company has accounted for this change as a change in estimate prospectively and it is expected to result in a $2.9 million reduction in expense for fiscal 2016 as compared to the previous method.

9. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Repurchase of Common Stock

The Company acquired and retired 276,804 shares of its common stock in the quarter ended July 1, 2017, at an average cost of $78.42 per share for a total cost of $21.7 million. The repurchases were under the 3.0 million share repurchase program approved by the Company’s Board of Directors ~~has approved a repurchase program of up to 3.0 million common shares of Company stock. Management is authorized to effect purchases from time to time~~ in ~~the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. There were no purchases under this program during the nine months ended October 1, 2016.~~November, 2013. There are approximately ~~2.3~~2.0 million shares of ~~our~~the Company's common stock available for repurchase under this program.

Share-Based Compensation

The majority of the Company’s annual share-based incentive awards are made in the fiscal second quarter.

The Company recognized ~~$3.0~~approximately $4.1 million and ~~$3.5~~$3.8 million in share-based compensation expense for the three months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015,~~July 2, 2016, respectively. Share-based compensation expense was ~~$10.1 million and $10.6~~$7.1 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, 2017 and July 2, 2016. The total income tax benefit recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income for share-based compensation expense was $1.6 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended July 1, 2017 and July 2, 2016, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income for share-based compensation expense was $2.7 million for the six months ended July 1, 2017 and ~~October 3, 2015, respectively.~~July 2, 2016. The Company recognizes compensation expense on grants of share-based compensation awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each award. The total excess income tax (expense) benefit recognized relating to share-based compensation was $0.2 million for the nine months ended October 1, 2016 and $1.3 million for the nine months ended October 3, 2015.As of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards was approximately ~~$27.9~~$31.3 million, net of estimated forfeitures, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately ~~2.2~~2.4 years.

Approximately ~~1.4~~0.9 million shares were available for future grant under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan at ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016.~~2017.

Options and Stock Appreciation Rights

The Company uses ~~several forms of share-based incentive awards, including non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, and~~ stock settled stock appreciation rights (“SARs”)~~. Options and~~ as a form of share-based incentive awards. SARs are the right to receive stock in an amount equal to the appreciation in value of a share of stock over the base price per share that generally vest over 5 years and expire 10 years from the grant date. All grants are made at prices equal to the fair market value of the stock on the grant date. For the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015,~~July 2, 2016, expired and canceled shares were immaterial.

The table below presents share-based compensation activity for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015~~July 2, 2016 (in millions):


	October 1, 2016			October 3, 2015		July 1, 2017		July 2, 2016
Total intrinsic value of share-based incentive awards exercised	$	1.1		$	4.0	$	3.1	$	0.3

Income tax benefit (expense) from the exercise of stock options						0.7		(0.1		)
Total fair value of share-based incentive awards vested	4.9			4.8		4.3		4.8

The assumptions used in the Company's Black-Scholes valuation related to grants for options and SARs were as follows:


	2016			2015			2017			2016
Per share weighted average fair value of grants	$	15.22		$	27.16		$	23.31		$	15.22
Risk-free interest rate	1.4		%	1.9		%	2.1		%	1.4		%
Expected life (years)	7.0			7.0			7.0			7.0
Expected volatility	29.6		%	35.6		%	28.6		%	29.6		%
Expected dividend yield	1.7		%	1.2		%	1.3		%	1.7		%

The average risk-free interest rate is based on US Treasury security rates in effect as of the grant date. The expected dividend yield is based on the projected annual dividend as a percentage of the estimated market value of the Company's common stock as of the grant date. The Company estimated the expected volatility using a weighted average of daily historical volatility of the Company's stock price over the expected term of the award. The Company estimated the expected term using historical data adjusted for the estimated exercise dates of unexercised awards.

Following is a summary of share-based incentive plan grant activity (options and SARs) for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016.~~2017.

Compensation expense recognized related to options and SARs was ~~$3.4~~$2.2 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016.~~2017.

As of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, there was ~~$11.1~~$12.0 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested options and SARs that is expected to be recognized as a charge to earnings over a weighted average period of ~~3.4~~3.6 years.

The amount of options expected to vest is materially consistent with those outstanding and not yet exercisable.

Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock awards ("RSA") and restricted stock units ("RSU") consist of shares or the rights to shares of the Company's stock. The awards are restricted such that they are subject to substantial risk of forfeiture and to restrictions on their sale or other

transfer. As defined in the individual grant agreements, acceleration of vesting may occur under a change in control, or death, disability or normal retirement of the grantee.

Following is a summary of RSA award activity for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016:~~2017:


	Shares		Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)	Shares		Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)

RSUs vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, provided the holder of the RSUs is continuously employed by the Company until the vesting date. Compensation expense recognized related to the RSUs was ~~$4.2~~$3.3 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016.~~2017.

As of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, there was ~~$10.7~~$11.4 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs that is expected to be recognized as a charge to earnings over a weighted average period of ~~1.9~~2.1 years.

Performance Share Units

Performance share unit ("PSU") awards consist of shares or the rights to shares of the Company's stock which are awarded to employees 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. As set forth in the individual ~~grant~~award agreements, acceleration of vesting may occur under a change in control, death or disability. There are no voting rights associated with ~~these instruments~~PSUs 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 as of the grant date depending on the performance criteria for the award.

The assumptions used in the Company's Monte Carlo simulation related to grants for performance share units were as follows:


	October 1, 2016		October 3, 2015		July 1, 2017		July 2, 2016
Risk-free interest rate	0.9	%	1.0	%	1.6	%	0.9	%

Compensation expense for awards granted ~~are~~is recognized based on the ~~targeted~~Monte Carlo simulation value or the expected payout ~~of 100.0%,~~ratio depending upon the performance criterion for the award, net of estimated forfeitures. Compensation expense recognized related to PSUs was ~~$1.7~~$1.0 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016.~~2017. Total unrecognized compensation expense for all PSUs granted as of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 is estimated to be ~~$5.4~~$6.9 million recognized as a charge to earnings over a weighted average period of ~~2.2~~2.4 years.

10. INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 was ~~20.2%~~21.6% versus ~~25.2%~~24.9% for the three months ended ~~October 3, 2015~~July 2, 2016. The effective tax rate for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 was ~~22.7%~~22.0% versus ~~25.7%~~24.1% for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October 3, 2015.~~July 2, 2016. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months and six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 was primarily driven by the mix of earnings and the ~~favorable adjustments related to the finalization of the 2015 US federal income tax return. For the nine months ended October 1,~~ 2016 ~~the change in the effective tax rate was driven by the mix of earnings and the favorable adjustments related to the finalization of the 2015 US federal income tax return, partially offset by the~~ gain derived from the sale of the Mastergear business. The lower effective rate as compared to the 35.0% statutory ~~federal~~Federal income tax rate is driven by lower foreign tax rates.

As of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, the Company had approximately ~~$8.4~~$10.2 million and $~~8.3~~10.0 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits, 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.

With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to US ~~federal~~Federal and state/local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to ~~2011,~~2012, and the Company is no longer subject to non-US income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to ~~2009.~~2010.

11. 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. Options for common shares where the exercise price was above the market price have been excluded from the calculation of effect of dilutive securities shown below; the amount of the anti-dilutive shares were ~~1.4~~0.4 million and ~~0.8~~1.3 million for the three months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015,~~July 2, 2016, respectively, and ~~1.3~~0.4 million and ~~0.3~~1.2 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015,~~July 2, 2016, respectively. The following table reconciles the basic and diluted shares used in earnings per share calculations for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015~~July 2, 2016 (in millions):

12.CONTINGENCIES

One of the ~~Company’s~~Company's subsidiaries that it acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units ~~marketed~~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. The Company has recorded an estimated liability for incurred claims. Based on the current facts, the Company ~~does not believe~~cannot assure that these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its ~~interim condensed consolidated~~subsidiary's financial ~~statements as a whole.~~condition. The Company's subsidiary cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these claims, the nature or extent of any CPSC or other remedial actions, if any, that the Company's subsidiary may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field, or the costs that may be incurred, some of which could be significant.

The Company is, from time to time, party to litigation and other legal or regulatory proceedings that ~~arises~~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~~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, its results of operations or its cash flows.

The Company recognizes the cost associated with its standard warranty on its products at the time of sale. The amount recognized is based on historical experience. The following is a reconciliation of the changes in accrued warranty costs for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~October 3, 2015~~July 2, 2016 (in millions):

13. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are commodity price risk, 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~~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 entered into to manage interest rate risk associated with the ~~Company’s~~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 ~~Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.~~statement of financial position. 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 ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017.

Cash flow hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of ~~other comprehensive loss~~AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or changes in market value of derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized in current earnings. ~~All derivative instruments used by the Company impact operating cash flows.~~

At ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017, the Company had $~~(7.6)~~(2.1) million, net of tax, of derivative losses on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be ~~recognized~~realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, the Company had $~~(7.4)~~(7.5) million, net of tax, of derivative losses on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that was subsequently realized in earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

14. FAIR VALUE

~~The Company uses~~Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a ~~three-tier hierarchy to assess~~liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The inputs used to measure ~~the~~ fair value ~~of financial assets and liabilities.~~are classified into the following hierarchy:



Level 1	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or
	Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or
	Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability
Level 3	Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

The Company uses the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair values of cash equivalents and ~~term~~short-term deposits approximate their carrying values as of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, due to the short period of time to maturity and are classified using Level 1 inputs. The fair values of trade receivables and accounts payable approximate the carrying values due to the short period of time to maturity. See Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosure of the approximate fair value of the Company's debt at ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016.

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 ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016 (in millions):

~~The Company’s~~Level 1 fair value measurements for assets held in a Rabbi Trust are unadjusted quoted prices.

Level 2 fair value measurements for derivative ~~contracts~~assets and liabilities are measured using quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities. Interest rate swaps are valued ~~at fair value using~~based on the ~~market or income approaches. The Company measures~~discounted cash flows for the ~~fair value of~~LIBOR forward yield curve for a swap with similar contractual terms. Foreign currency forwards are valued based on exchange rates quoted by domestic and foreign ~~currency exchange contracts using Level 2 inputs~~banks for similar instruments. Commodity forwards are valued based on observable ~~spot and forward rates in active markets. The Company measures the fair value of commodity contracts using Level 2 inputs through observable~~ market transactions ~~in active markets provided by financial institutions. The Company measures the fair value~~ of investments using Level 1 inputs based on quoted market prices for identical instruments in active markets. The Company measures the fair value of interest rate swaps using Level 2 inputs in an income approach for valuation based on expected interest rate yield curves over the remaining duration of the interest rate swaps. forward commodity prices.

During the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017, there were no transfers between classification Levels 1, 2 or 3.

15. RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED COSTS

Beginning in 2014, the Company announced the closure of several of its manufacturing and warehouse facilities and consolidation into existing facilities to simplify manufacturing operations in its Commercial and Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Power Transmission Solutions segments. As a result of these closures, theThe Company incurred restructuring and ~~restructuring-related costs.~~restructuring related costs on projects beginning in 2014. Restructuring costs ~~includes~~include employee termination and plant relocation costs. Restructuring-related costs ~~includes~~include costs directly associated with actions resulting from our ~~simplification~~Simplification initiatives, such as asset write-downs or accelerated depreciation due to shortened useful lives in connection with site closures, discretionary employment benefit costs and other facility rationalization costs. Restructuring costs for employee termination expenses are generally required to be accrued over the employees remaining service period while restructuring costs for plant relocation costs and restructuring-related costs are generally required to be expensed as incurred.

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

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Item 2 to “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” refer collectively to Regal Beloit Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Overview

Regal Beloit Corporation (NYSE: RBC), based in Beloit, Wisconsin (USA), is a leading manufacturer of electric motors, electrical motion controls, power generation and power transmission products serving markets throughout the world.

Components of Profit and Loss

Net Sales. We sell our products to a variety of manufacturers, distributors and end users. Our customers consist of a large cross-section of businesses, ranging from Fortune 100 companies to small businesses. A number of our products are sold to ~~original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”~~Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEM's"), 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 derive from direct sales, but a significant portion derives 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 ~~segment~~division to ~~segment.~~division.

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 less the amount of sales attributable to any divested businesses (“acquisition sales”), and (ii) the impact of foreign currency translation. The impact of foreign currency translation is determined by translating the respective period’s sales (excluding acquisition sales) using the same currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior year periods. We use the term “organic sales growth” to refer to the increase in our sales between periods that is attributable to organic sales. We use the term “acquisition growth” to refer to the increase in our sales between periods that is attributable to acquisition sales.

Gross Profit. Our gross profit is impacted by our levels of net sales and cost of sales. Our cost of sales consists of costs for, among other things (i) raw materials, including copper, steel and aluminum; (ii) components such as castings, bars, tools, bearings and

electronics; (iii) wages and related personnel expenses for fabrication, assembly and logistics personnel; (iv) manufacturing facilities, including depreciation on our manufacturing facilities and equipment, taxes, insurance and utilities; and (v) ~~shipping~~shipping. The majority of our cost of sales consists of raw materials and ~~handling.~~components. The price we pay for commodities and components can be subject to commodity price fluctuations. We attempt to mitigate this through fixed-price agreements with suppliers and our hedging strategies. We are currently reducing the number of our suppliers we use in order to leverage the better prices and terms that can be obtained with higher volume orders. A large amount of our suppliers are in North America. As we expand production and our geographic footprint, we expect it may be advantageous to increase our use of foreign suppliers. When we experience commodity price increases, we have tended to announce price increases to our customers who purchase via purchase order, with such increases generally taking effect a period of time after the public announcements. For those sales we make under long-term contracts, we tend to include material price formulas that specify quarterly or semi-annual price adjustments based on a variety of factors, including commodity prices.

Outside of general economic cyclicality, our different business units experience different levels of variation in gross margin from quarter to quarter based on factors specific to each division. 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 and Industrial Systems segment and our Power Transmission Solutions segment have a broad customer base and a variety of applications, thereby helping to mitigate large quarter-to-quarter fluctuations outside of general economic conditions.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses consist primarily of (i) general and administrative expenses; (ii) sales and marketing expenses; ~~and~~ (iii) general engineering and research and development ~~expenses.~~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 division 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 these two segments is energy efficiency, which generally means using less electrical power to produce more mechanical power.

Operating Profit. Our operating profit consists of the segment gross profit less the segment operating expenses. In addition, there are shared operating ~~expenses~~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.

Restructuring and Related ~~Costs.~~Costs. Beginning in 2014, ~~as part of our Simplification initiative,~~ we announced the closure of several of our manufacturing and warehouse facilities and ~~their~~ consolidation into existing facilities to simplify manufacturing operations in our Commercial and Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Power Transmission Solutions segments. As a result of these closures, we incurred restructuring and restructuring-related costs. Restructuring costs includes employee termination and plant relocation costs. Restructuring-related costs includes costs directly associated with actions resulting from our ~~Simplification initiative,~~simplification initiatives, such as asset write-downs or accelerated depreciation due to shortened useful lives in connection with site closures, discretionary employment benefit costs and other facility rationalization costs. Restructuring costs for employee termination expenses are generally required to be accrued over the employees remaining service period while restructuring costs for plant relocation costs and restructuring-related costs are generally required to be expensed as incurred.

Outlook

Our ~~outlook~~order trends remain positive, and we continue to expect low single digit organic sales growth for the ~~remainder of 2016 assumes a continuation of weak global demand from many of our industrial end markets relative to the prior~~full year. These market conditions are expected to negatively impact our sales volume. We expect the lower sales volume will negatively impact income from operations, partially offset by benefits from the Simplification initiative and cost controls.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 Compared to ~~October 3, 2015~~July 2, 2016

Net sales ~~decreased $72.7~~increased $30.6 million or ~~8.2%~~3.6% for the ~~third~~second quarter ~~2016~~2017 compared to the ~~third~~second quarter ~~2015.~~2016. The ~~decrease~~increase consisted of an organic sales ~~decline~~increase of ~~7.1%~~4.8%, a negative foreign currency translation impact of ~~0.6%~~0.7% and a negative impact from the sale of the Mastergear Worldwide (“Mastergear”) business of 0.5%. Gross profit of $223.0 million for the second quarter 2017 was relatively unchanged as compared to the second quarter 2016. Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the second quarter 2017 decreased ~~$9.4~~90 basis points as compared to the second quarter 2016 primarily driven by restructuring charges, commodity inflation and challenges of increasing our production after recent plant consolidations which were partially offset by the sales volume increase. Operating expenses for the second quarter 2017 increased $8.5 million or ~~3.9%~~6.5% as compared to the same period in the prior year. The prior year included a gain on the sale of Mastergear totaling $11.6 million.

Commercial and Industrial Systems Segment net sales for the second quarter 2017 were $407.4 million, an increase of $12.7 million or 3.2% as compared to the second quarter 2016. The increase consisted of an organic sales increase of 4.3%, driven by growth in Asia and improved oil and gas end markets and a negative foreign currency translation impact of 1.1%. Gross profit decreased $4.3 million as compared to the prior year. The decrease was ~~largely~~mainly driven by ~~lower sales volume~~an increase in restructuring costs due to the exit of a noncore business, commodity inflation and challenges of increasing our production after recent plant consolidations that was partially offset by the ~~benefits of~~increase in sales volume.

Six Months Ended July 1, 2017 Compared to July 2, 2016

Net sales increased $25.9 million or 1.6% for the six months ended July 1, 2017 compared to the six months ended July 2, 2016. The ~~decrease~~increase consisted of an organic sales ~~decline~~growth increase of ~~4.9%~~2.8%, a negative impact from sales of the divested Mastergear business of 0.5% and a negative foreign currency translation impact of ~~0.4%~~0.6%. Net sales were unfavorably impacted by a continued decline in Middle East HVAC demand, the impact of contractual two-way material price formulas, and weak demand in the commercial refrigeration and the general industries markets, partially offset from strong sales in the North American residential HVAC market. Gross profit for the six months ended July 1, 2017 decreased $1.7 million or 0.4% compared to the six months ended July 2, 2016 primarily due to increased ~~$0.6 million as the sales volume decline was~~restructuring charges and partially offset by the ~~benefits of the Simplification and cost control initiatives~~increase in ~~the factories.

Operating expenses for the ~~third quarter 2016 decreased $0.9~~six months ended July 1, 2017 increased $1.2 million or ~~3.0%~~0.4% compared to the same period in the prior year due ~~to lower variable expenses such as salaries, commissions, and travel as a result of lower sales volumes and continued cost controls.~~

Power Transmission Solutions segment net sales decreased $21.4 million or 11.2% for the third quarter 2016 compared to the third quarter 2015. The decrease consisted of an organic sales decline of 8.5%, divestiture of the Mastergear business of 2.5% and a negative foreign currency translation impact of 0.1%. Organic sales declines were primarily driven by lower demand from the industrial distribution channel, and weak oil and gas, metals and agricultural end markets. Gross profit for the third quarter 2016 decreased $5.1 million or 8.5%. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volume that was partially offset by Simplification and cost control initiatives in the factories. Gross profit as a percentage of sales improved 100 basis points as compared to 2015. In addition, the prior year gross profit benefited from $0.2 million in duty refunds related to the GSP tariff rebate, described above. Operating expenses increased $4.2 million or 10.7% in 2016 largely due to a $1.0 million increase in restructuring costs relative to the same period last year and prior period adjustments to align accounting practices between the newly acquired PTS business and the legacy Regal business, partially offset by lower variable expenses such as salaries and travel as a result of lower sales volumes and continued cost controls.

~~Nine Months Ended October 1, 2016 Compared to October 3, 2015~~

Net sales decreased $269.8 million or 9.9% for the nine months ended October 1, 2016 compared to the nine months ended October 3, 2015 and included $29.1 million from the recently acquired businesses, net of dispositions. The decrease consisted of an organic sales decline of 10.0% and a negative foreign currency translation impact of 1.0%, partially offset by a favorable impact from acquisition sales of 1.0%. Gross profit for the nine months ended October 1, 2016 decreased $41.4 million or 5.8% compared to the nine months ended October 3, 2015 primarily due to the impact of lower sales volume that was partially offset by the benefits from the Simplification and cost control initiatives in the factories. The prior year included non-recurring expenses related to the recognition of the inventory step up in cost of goods sold of $20.6 million due to purchase accounting adjustments associated with the acquired PTS business. In addition, the prior year gross profit benefited from $4.9 million in duty refunds related to the GSP tariff system, which expired in July 2013 and was retroactively renewed in July 2015; this benefit did not reoccur in 2016. Gross profit as a percent of sales increased 110 basis points as compared to the prior year with 70 basis points being attributed to the 2015 PTS purchase accounting inventory step up. Operating expenses for the nine months ended October 1, 2016 decreased $25.0 million or 5.6% compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to $9.2 million of acquisition fees incurred in 2015, the $11.6 million gain on the sale of the Mastergear business recorded in ~~2016~~the prior year which is partially offset by the leveraging of costs on the increased sales volume and ~~reductions in salary, commission,~~lower depreciation and ~~travel~~amortization expenses. ~~In addition, current year operating expenses included one month of incremental operating expenses associated with the acquired PTS business.~~

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our principal source of liquidity is cash flow provided by operating activities. In addition to operating income, other significant factors affecting our cash flow include working capital levels, capital expenditures, dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions, availability of debt financing, and the ability to attract long-term capital at acceptable terms.

Cash flow provided by operating activities was ~~$328.4~~$148.9 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, a ~~$61.2~~$27.2 million ~~increase~~decrease from the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October 3, 2015.~~July 2, 2016. The ~~increase~~decrease was primarily the result of the ~~lower~~higher investment in net working capital ~~driven by the planned reduction in inventory~~ for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 as compared to the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October 3, 2015.~~July 2, 2016.

Cash flow used in investing activities was ~~$29.5~~$31.9 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 versus ~~$1,464.0~~$2.1 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October 3, 2015.~~July 2, 2016. The change was driven by the ~~purchase of PTS for $1,400.7 million, net of cash acquired, in the nine months ended October 3, 2015 versus $25.5~~$25.0 million received for the sale of our Mastergear business in the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October 1,~~July 2, 2016. ~~The proceeds from the sale of Mastergear were used to reduce debt obligations.~~

Cash flow used in financing activities was ~~$265.8~~$164.5 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, compared to ~~$1,124.0~~$151.7 million provided by financing activities for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October 3, 2015. A $1,250.0 term loan was taken out to finance the acquisition of PTS during the nine months ended October 3, 2015 and net~~July 2, 2016. Net repayments of ~~$214.9~~$113.8 million were made during the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, 2017, compared to net repayments of $109.9 million made during the six months ended July 2, 2016. We paid ~~$31.3~~$21.4 million in dividends to shareholders in the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, compared to ~~$29.9~~$20.5 million for the ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October 3, 2015.~~July 2, 2016. Cash used for share repurchases was $21.0 million for the six months ended July 1, 2017. Cash used to purchase additional interest in joint ventures was $19.6 million for the six months ended July 2, 2016.

At ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, our cash and cash equivalents totaled ~~$281.6~~$243.7 million. At ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016, $272.1~~2017, $239.9 million of our cash was held by foreign subsidiaries and ~~although we do not intend to, this cash~~ could be used in our domestic operations if ~~necessary, but would~~necessary. The repatriation of cash from certain foreign subsidiaries could have adverse net tax consequences on us should we be ~~subject~~required to ~~repatriation taxes. There are no current trends, demands or uncertainties~~pay and record US income taxes and foreign withholding taxes on such funds. We periodically evaluate our cash held outside the US and may pursue opportunities to repatriate certain foreign cash amounts to the extent that we ~~believe are reasonably likely to require repatriation or to~~do not incur unfavorable net tax consequences. During the six months ended July 1, 2017, we have ~~a material impact on our ability to fund US operations.~~repatriated $101.4 million of foreign cash.

~~Predominately~~Substantially all of our expenses are paid in cash, often with payment term provisions that include early payment discounts and time elements. We believe that our ability to generate positive cash flow coupled with our available revolving credit balance will be sufficient to fund our operations for the foreseeable future. We focus on optimizing our investment in working capital through improved and enforced payment terms, maintaining an optimal level of inventory and operational efficiencies. Additionally, we believe that our capital expenditures for maintenance of equipment and facilities will be consistent with prior levels and not present a funding challenge.

We will, from time to time, maintain excess cash balances which may be used to (i) fund operations, (ii) repay outstanding debt, (iii) fund acquisitions, (iv) pay dividends, (v) make investments in new product development programs, (vi) repurchase our common stock, or (vii) fund other corporate objectives.

Credit Agreement

In connection with the PTS Acquisition, on January 30, 2015, we entered into a new Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and the lenders named therein, providing for a (i) a 5-year unsecured term loan facility in the principal amount of $1.25 billion (the “Term Facility”) and (ii) a 5-year unsecured multicurrency revolving facility in the principal amount of $500.0 million (the “Multicurrency Revolving Facility”), including a $100 million letter of credit sub facility available for general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at floating rates

based upon indices determined by the currency of the borrowing, plus an applicable margin determined by reference to our consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio or at an alternative base rate.

The Term Facility was drawn in full on January 30, 2015 in connection with the closing of the PTS Acquisition. The ~~loans~~loan under the Term Facility ~~require~~requires quarterly amortization at a rate starting at 5.0% per annum, increasing to 7.5% per annum after two years and further increasing to 10.0% per annum for the last two years of the Term ~~Facility.~~ Facility, unless previously prepaid. The weighted average interest rate on the Term Facility was 2.5% and 2.4% for the three and six months ended July 1, 2017, respectively and 1.9% for the three and six months ended July 2, 2016. The Credit Agreement requires we prepay the loans under the Term Facility with 100% of the net cash proceeds received from specified asset sales and borrowed money indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions.

At ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017, we had borrowings under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility in the amount of ~~$13.0~~$15.9 million, $32.3 million of standby letters of credit issued under the facility, and ~~$454.7~~$451.8 million of available borrowing capacity.

~~Borrowings~~ The average daily balance in borrowings under the ~~Credit Agreement bear interest at floating rates based upon indices determined by~~Multicurrency Revolving Facility was $114.8 and $109.2 million, and the ~~currency of the borrowing, plus an applicable margin determined by reference to our consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio or at an alternative base rate. The~~ weighted average interest rate on the Multicurrency Revolving Facility was ~~1.9 %~~2.5% and 2.4% for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017, respectively. The average daily balance in borrowings under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility was $29.8 million and ~~October 3, 2015. The~~$52.7 million, and the weighted average interest rate on the ~~Term~~Multicurrency Revolving Facility was ~~2.0%~~1.9% for the three and ~~nine~~six months ended ~~October 1, 2016 and October 3, 2015.~~July 2, 2016. We pay a non-use fee on the aggregate unused amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Facility at a rate determined by reference to its consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio.

The Credit Agreement requires that we prepay the loans under the Term Facility with 100% of the net cash proceeds received from specified asset sales and borrowed money indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions.

Senior Notes

At ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, we had $600.0 million of ~~unsecured~~ senior notes (the “Notes”) outstanding. The Notes consist of (i) $500.0 million in senior notes (the “2011 Notes”) in a private placement which were issued in seven tranches with maturities from seven to twelve years and carry fixed interest rates and (ii) $100.0 million in senior notes (the “2007 Notes”) issued in 2007 with a floating interest rate based on a margin over the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). ~~The 2011 Notes are included in Long-Term Debt and the 2007 Notes are included in Current Maturities of Long-Term Debt on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.~~

We have an interest rate swap ~~agreements~~agreement to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk (see also Note 13 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Compliance with Financial Covenants

The Credit Agreement and the Notes require us to meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. We were in compliance with all financial covenants contained in the Notes and the Credit Agreement as of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016.~~2017.

Other Notes Payable

Based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities and credit quality, which are classified as Level 2 inputs (see also Note 14 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), the approximate fair value of our total debt was ~~$1,559.3~~$1,325.3 million and ~~$1,758.2~~$1,433.4 million as of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our disclosures of critical accounting policies, which are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, have not materially changed since that report was filed.

~~Goodwill~~

We evaluate the carrying amount of our goodwill annually at the end of our October fiscal month end 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. Testing for impairment is performed on a reporting unit basis. Impairment occurs when the carrying value of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of a reporting unit.

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 our 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 income 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 a weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”). The WACC considers market and industry data as well as company-specific risk factors for each reporting unit in determining the appropriate discount rate to be used. 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 WACC and long-term growth rates.

Throughout 2016 and more pronounced during the third quarter, our PTS reporting unit, which is a combination of the acquired PTS business from Emerson Electric and our legacy PTS business, was impacted by declines in the oil and gas, distribution, and agricultural end-markets. As a result, we performed an interim impairment test during our 2016 fiscal third quarter. The PTS reporting unit has goodwill of $564.1 million as of October 1, 2016. Our interim impairment test indicated the reporting unit’s implied fair value exceeded its book value by 2.5%.

~~Some of the key considerations used in our impairment testing included:~~

~~Market pricing of guideline publicly traded companies~~

~~Guideline publicly traded company financial projections~~

~~Cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate~~

~~Recent historical and projected performance of the subject reporting unit~~

~~There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in goodwill impairment testing. A change to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment.~~

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES 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 strictly prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative purposes.

All qualified hedges are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with changes in fair value recorded in ~~Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss~~accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) in each accounting period. ~~The~~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. At ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, excluding the impact of ~~the~~ interest rate ~~swap,~~swaps, we had $505.3 million of fixed rate debt and ~~$1,016.4~~$794.9 million of variable rate debt. ~~As a result,~~We utilize interest rate ~~changes~~swaps to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from exposure to interest rate risk on forecasted variable rate ~~debt impact future earnings and cash flow assuming other factors are constant.~~ interest payments.

We have LIBOR-based floating rate borrowings, which expose us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 10% change in ~~the~~our weighted average borrowing rate on outstanding variable rate debt at ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 would result in a ~~$1.1~~$1.2 million change in after-tax annualized earnings.

We have entered into a pay fixed/receive LIBOR-based floating interest rate swap to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from ~~exposure to~~ interest rate ~~risk on forecasted variable rate interest payments.~~risk. This interest rate swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge against forecasted LIBOR-based interest payments.

Details regarding this instrument, as of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, are as follows (in millions):


Instrument	Notional Amount		Maturity	Rate Paid		Rate Received	Fair Value Loss			Notional Amount		Maturity	Rate Paid		Rate Received	Fair Value (Loss)

As of ~~October~~July 1, 2017, an interest rate swap liability of $(1.1) million was included in Current Hedging Obligations. As of December 31, 2016, an interest rate swap liability of ~~$(4.6)~~$(3.3) million was included in Current Hedging ~~Obligations (current). As of January 2, 2016, an interest rate swap liability of $(7.8) million was included in Hedging Obligations (noncurrent).~~Obligations. The unrealized loss on the effective portion of the contract, net of tax, of ~~$(2.8)~~$(0.7) million and ~~$(4.9)~~$(2.1) million as of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, respectively, was recorded in AOCI.

Foreign Currency Risk

We are ~~also~~ 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.~~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 USUnited States dollars.

Derivatives

As of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of ~~$1.9~~$10.1 million, ~~$0.5~~$5.1 million, ~~$(32.4)~~$(13.2) million and ~~$(16.7)~~$(1.1) million, are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Current Hedging Obligations, ~~(current),~~ and Noncurrent Hedging Obligations, ~~(noncurrent),~~ respectively. As of ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of ~~$1.2~~$2.8 million, ~~$1.0~~$0.4 million, ~~$(30.8)~~$(45.7) million and ~~$(19.8)~~$(17.6) million, are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Current Hedging Obligations, ~~(current),~~ and Noncurrent Hedging Obligations, ~~(noncurrent),~~ respectively. The unrealized losses on the contracts of ~~$(29.3)~~$(1.2) million net of tax, and ~~$(29.8)~~$(34.4) million net of tax, as of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016 respectively, were recorded in AOCI. At ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, we had ~~$(6.6)~~$(3.1) million, net of tax, of derivative currency losses on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized

in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, we had ~~$(3.8)~~$(8.0) million of derivative currency losses on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

The following table quantifies the outstanding foreign exchange contracts intended to hedge non-US dollar denominated ~~cash flows~~receivables and payables and the corresponding impact on the value of these instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% appreciation/depreciation of their counter currency on ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 (in millions):

Gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would be offset by gains and losses on the underlying forecasted non-US dollar denominated cash flows.

Commodity Price Risk

We periodically enter into commodity hedging transactions to reduce the impact of changing prices for certain commodities such as copper and aluminum based upon forecasted purchases of such commodities. ~~The majority of these~~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.

Derivatives

~~As of October 2, 2016, derivative~~Derivative commodity assets (liabilities) of ~~$2.2~~$5.2 million, ~~$0.1 million, $(1.3)~~$0.2 million, and ~~$(0.1)~~$(0.2) million were recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets ~~Other Accrued Expenses,~~and Current Hedging Obligations, ~~(current), and Hedging Obligations (noncurrent), respectively. As of January 2, 2016, derivative~~respectively, at July 1, 2017. Derivative commodity assets ~~(liabilities)~~ of ~~$5.2 million, $(13.9)~~$7.3 million are recorded in Prepaid Expenses ~~and Other Current Assets and Hedging Obligations (current), respectively.~~at December 31, 2016. The unrealized gains ~~(losses)~~ on the effective portion of the contracts of ~~$0.5~~$2.3 million net of tax and ~~$(5.4)~~$2.9 million net of tax, as of ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 and ~~January 2,~~December 31 2016, respectively, were recorded in AOCI. At ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016,~~2017, we had ~~$(1.0)~~$1.0 million, net of tax, of derivative commodity ~~losses~~gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At ~~January 2,~~December 31, 2016, there was ~~$(3.6)~~$0.5 million, net of tax, of derivative commodity ~~losses~~gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that were realized into earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

The following table quantifies the outstanding commodity contracts intended to hedge raw material commodity prices and the corresponding impact on the value of these instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% appreciation/depreciation of their prices on ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 (in millions):


					Gain (Loss) From									Gain (Loss) From

Gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would be offset by the actual prices of the commodities.

The net AOCI balance of ~~$(39.2)~~$(1.7) million loss at ~~October~~July 1, ~~2016~~2017 includes ~~$(21.2)~~$0.4 million of net current deferred ~~losses~~gains expected to be realized in the next twelve months.

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 ~~agreement,~~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.
