STANLEY BLACK & DECKER, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO (UNAUDITED) CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 201829, 2019


A.SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (hereinafter referred to as “generally accepted accounting principles”) for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 201829, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in Stanley Black & Decker, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 201729, 2018, and subsequent related filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.Commission ("SEC").


In May 2019, the Company sold its Sargent & Greenleaf mechanical locks business within the Security segment. The results of this business have been reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements through the date of sale in 2019.

In March 2019, the Company acquired the International Equipment Solutions Attachments businesses, Paladin and Pengo, ("IES Attachments"), a manufacturer of high quality, performance-driven heavy equipment attachment tools for off-highway applications. The IES Attachments acquisition is being accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The results of IES Attachments subsequent to the date of acquisition are included in the Company's Industrial segment.

In January 2019, the Company acquired a 20 percent interest in MTD Holdings Inc. ("MTD"), a privately held global manufacturer of outdoor power equipment.  MTD manufactures and distributes gas-powered lawn tractors, zero turn mowers, walk behind mowers, snow throwers, trimmers, chain saws, utility vehicles and other outdoor power equipment. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company has the option to acquire the remaining 80 percent of MTD beginning on July 1, 2021 and ending on January 2, 2029. In the event the option is exercised, the companies have agreed to a valuation multiple based on MTD’s 2018 Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA"), with an equitable sharing arrangement for future EBITDA growth. The Company is applying the equity method of accounting to the MTD investment.

In April 2018, the Company acquired the industrial business of Nelson Fastener Systems ("Nelson") from the Doncasters Group, which is beingexcluded Nelson's automotive stud welding business. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. Thecombination using the acquisition method of accounting and the results of this acquisition are being consolidated intoincluded in the Company's Industrial segment. In March 2017,segment for all periods subsequent to the Company acquired the Tools businessdate of Newell Brands ("Newell Tools") and the Craftsman® brand, which were both accounted for as business combinations. The results of these acquisitions have been consolidated into the Company's Tools & Storage segment. acquisition.

Refer to Note F, Acquisitions and Investments, for further discussion on these acquisitions.

In February 2017, the Company sold the majority of its mechanical security businesses within the Security segment, which included the commercial hardware brands of Best Access, phi Precision and GMT. The Company also sold two small businesses within the Tools & Storage segment in the first and fourth quarters of 2017, and one small business in the Industrial segment in the third quarter of 2017. The operating results of these businesses have been reported within continuing operations in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements through their respective dates of sale in 2017. Refer to Note T, Divestitures, for further discussion.transactions.


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. While management believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from these estimates. Certain amounts reported in the previous year have been recast as a result ofreclassified to conform to the retrospective adoption of new accounting standards in the first quarter of 2018. Refer to Note B, New Accounting Standards, for further discussion.2019 presentation.


Financial Instruments

Derivative financial instruments are employed to manage risks, including foreign currency, interest rate exposures and commodity prices and are not used for trading or speculative purposes. As part of the Company’s risk management program, a variety of financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, currency swaps, purchased currency options, foreign exchange contracts and commodity contracts, may be used to mitigate interest rate exposure, foreign currency exposure and commodity price exposure. The Company recognizes all derivative instruments in the balance sheet at fair value.


Changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized periodically either in earnings or in shareowners’ equity as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) ("OCI"), depending on whether the derivative financial instrument is undesignated or qualifies for hedge accounting and, if so, whether it represents a fair value, cash flow, or net investment hedge. Changes in the

fair value of derivatives accounted for as fair value hedges are recorded in earnings in the same caption as the changes in the fair value of the hedged items. Gains and losses on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, to the extent they are included in the assessment of effectiveness, are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss)OCI and subsequently reclassified to earnings to offset the impact of the hedged items when they occur. In the event it becomes probable the forecasted transaction to which a cash flow hedge relates will not occur, the derivative would be terminated and the amount in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) would be recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as a hedge of the net investment in foreign operations, to the extent they are included in the assessment of effectiveness, are reported in other comprehensive income (loss)OCI and are deferred until disposal of the underlying assets. Gains and losses representing components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness for cash flow and fair value hedges are recognized in earnings on a

straight-line basis in the same caption as the hedged item over the term of the hedge. Gains and losses representing components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness for net investment hedges are recognized in earnings on a straight-line basis in Other, net over the term of the hedge.


The net interest paid or received on interest rate swaps is recognized as interest expense. Gains and losses resulting from the early termination of interest rate swap agreements are deferred and amortized as adjustments to interest expense over the remaining period of the debt originally covered by the terminated swap.


Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedges are reported in Other, net in the Consolidated Statementsconsolidated statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.operations. Refer to Note I, Financial Instruments, for further discussion.


Revenue Recognition


The Company’s revenues result from the sale of goods or services and reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. The Company records revenue based on a five-step model in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"). For its customer contracts, the Company identifies the performance obligations (goods or services), determines the transaction price, allocates the contract transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizes the revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is transferred to the customer. A good or service is transferred when (or as) the customer obtains control of that good or service. The majority of the Company’s revenues are recorded at a point in time from the sale of tangible products.


A portion of the Company’s revenues within the Security and Infrastructure businesses is generated from equipment leased to customers. Customer arrangements are identified as leases if they include transfer of a tangible asset which is provided to the customer in exchange for payments typically at fixed rates payable monthly, quarterly or annually. Customer leases may include terms to allow for extension of leases for a short period of time, but typically do not provide for customer termination prior to the initial term. Some customer leases include terms to allow the customer to purchase the underlying asset, which occurs occasionally, and virtually no customer leases include residual value guarantee clauses. Within the Security business, the underlying asset typically has no value at termination of the customer lease, so no residual value asset is recorded in the financial statements. For Infrastructure business leases, underlying assets are assessed for functionality at termination of the lease and, if necessary, an impairment to the leased asset value is recorded.

Provisions for customer volume rebates, product returns, discounts and allowances are variable consideration and are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the same period the related sales are recorded. Such provisions are calculated using historical averages adjusted for any expected changes due to current business conditions. Consideration given to customers for cooperative advertising is recognized as a reduction of revenue except to the extent that there is a distinct good or service and evidence of the fair value of the advertising, in which case the expense is classified as selling, general, and administrative expense.


The Company’s revenues can be generated from contracts with multiple performance obligations. When a sales agreement involves multiple performance obligations, each obligation is separately identified (including equipment lease obligations) and the transaction price is allocated based on the amount of consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring the promised good or service to the customer.


Sales of security monitoring systems may have multiple performance obligations, including equipment, installation and monitoring or maintenance services. In most instances, the Company allocates the appropriate amount of consideration to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price ("SSP") of the distinct goods or services performance obligation. In circumstances where SSP is not observable, the Company allocates the consideration for the performance obligations by utilizing one of the following methods: expected cost plus margin, the residual approach, or a mix of these estimation methods.


For performance obligations that the Company satisfies over time, revenue is recognized by consistently applying a method of measuring progress toward complete satisfaction of that performance obligation. The Company utilizes the method that most accurately depicts the progress toward completion of the performance obligation.


The Company’s contract sales for the installation of security intruder systems and other construction-related projects are generally recorded under the input method. The input method recognizes revenue on the basis of the Company’s efforts or inputs to the satisfaction of a performance obligation relative to the total inputs expected to satisfy that performance obligation. Revenue recognized on security contracts in process are based upon the allocated contract price and related total inputs of the project at completion. The extent of progress toward completion is generally measured using input methods based on labor metrics. Revisions to these estimates as contracts progress have the effect of increasing or decreasing profits each period. Provisions for anticipated losses are made in the period in which they become determinable. The revenues for monitoring and monitoring-related services are recognized as services are rendered over the contractual period.


The Company utilizes the output method for contract sales in the Oil & Gas business.product line. The output method recognizes revenue based on direct measurements of the customer value of the goods or services transferred to date relative to the remaining goods or services promised under the contract. The output method includes methods such as surveys of performance completed to date, appraisals of results achieved, milestones reached, time elapsed, and units produced or units delivered.


Contract assets or liabilities result from transactions with revenue recorded over time. If the measure of remaining rights exceeds the measure of the remaining performance obligations, the Company records a contract asset. Conversely, if the

measure of the remaining performance obligations exceeds the measure of the remaining rights, the Company records a contract liability.


Incremental costs of obtaining or fulfilling a contract with a customer that are expected to be recovered are recognized and classified in Other current assets or Other assets, as appropriate, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheetsconsolidated balance sheet and are typically amortized over the contract period. The Company recognizes the incremental costs of obtaining or fulfilling a contract as expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset is one year or less.


Customer billings for services not yet rendered are deferred and recognized as revenue as the services are rendered. The associated deferred revenue is included in Accrued expenses or Other liabilities, as appropriate, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.consolidated balance sheet.


Refer to Note D, Accounts and Notes Receivable, for further discussion.


B.    NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS


Adoption of New Accounting Standards
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ADOPTEDIn March 2017,February 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-07, Compensation-Retirement Benefits (Topic 715) (“new pension standard”). The new pension standard improves the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2018 utilizing the full retrospective method. As a result of the adoption, all components other than service cost were reclassified from Cost of sales and Selling, general and administrative to Other, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). The objective of this update is to provide additional guidance and reduce diversity in practice when classifying certain transactions within the statement of cash flows. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. This new standard requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The Company adopted these standards in the first quarter of 2018 utilizing the retrospective transition method. The impacts of the new standards relate to the presentation of restricted cash as well as certain cash flows related to the Company's accounts receivable sale program. Refer to Note D, Accounts and Notes Receivable, for further discussion.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“new revenue standard”). The new revenue standard outlines a comprehensive model for companies to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The new model provides a five-step analysis in determining when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle of the new guidance is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard allows for initial application to be performed retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. During 2016, the FASB clarified the implementation guidance on principal versus agent, identifying performance obligations, licensing, collectability and made technical corrections on various topics.

The Company adopted the new revenue recognition standard in the first quarter of 2018 using the full retrospective method. Accordingly, certain prior period amounts have been recast to reflect the financial results of the Company in accordance with the new standard. The Company recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for the earliest balance sheet period presented.

As a result of the adoption of the new revenue standard, outbound freight is recorded as a component of cost of sales as opposed to a reduction of net sales. The new revenue standard also requires companies to record an asset for anticipated customer return of inventory and a sales return reserve at the gross amount of the initial sale, rather than at the net margin amount. Additionally, certain sales to distributors subject to a guarantee with a third-party financier that were previously deferred are now recognized upon shipment in accordance with the new revenue standard and the associated short-term and long-term accounts receivable and short-term and long-term debt balances have been recast. Lastly, for certain product warranties provided to customers that meet the criteria of a service-type warranty, a portion of consideration paid by customers must now be deferred and recognized as revenue over the anticipated service warranty period.


As a result of the adoption of the new revenue and pension standards, certain amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended July 1, 2017 have been recast, as follows:

In December 2017, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") staff issued SAB 118, which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”). SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740, Income Taxes, (the "measurement period"). In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Act is incomplete but it can determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate in the financial statements. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 based on the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Act. The measurement period for accounting for the Act begins in the period of enactment and ends when an entity has obtained, prepared and analyzed the information necessary to complete the accounting requirements under ASC 740, but in no event can the measurement period extend beyond one year. Any provisional amount or adjustment to a provisional amount included in a company’s financial statements during the measurement period should be included in income from continuing operations as an adjustment to tax expense or benefit in the reporting period the amounts are determined. Refer to Note P, Income Taxes, for further discussion.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives And Hedging (Topic 815):Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedge Activities. The new standard amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements in ASC 815. As permitted by ASU 2017-12, the Company early adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2018 on a prospective basis. Refer to Note A, Significant Accounting Policies, for the updated financial instruments policy related to the adoption of this standard.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-05, Other Income-Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets (Subtopic 610). The new standard provides guidance for recognizing gains and losses of nonfinancial assets in contracts with non-customers. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2018 and it did not have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The new standard narrows the definition of a business and provides a framework for evaluation. The Company adopted this standard prospectively in the first quarter of 2018.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory. The new standard eliminates the exception to the principle in ASC 740, for all intra-entity sales of assets other than inventory, to be deferred, until the transferred asset is sold to a third party or otherwise recovered through use. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2018 and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The main objective of this update is to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. The new guidance addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter 2018 and it did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-09, Codification Improvements.  This standard does not prescribe any new accounting guidance, but instead makes minor improvements and clarifications of several different FASB Accounting Standards Codification areas based on comments and suggestions made by various stakeholders.  Certain updates are applicable immediately while others provide for a transition period to adopt as part of the next fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2018.  The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. The new guidance permits, but does not require, companies to reclassify the stranded tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) on items within accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2019 and did not elect to reclassify the stranded tax effects of the Act on items within accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. The Company uses the portfolio method for releasing the stranded tax effects from accumulated other comprehensive income.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("new lease standard"). The objective of the new lease standard is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring recognition of all lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. In March 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-01, Codification Improvements, Leases (Topic 842), and in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, and ASU 2018-11, Targeted Improvements, Leases (Topic 842). In December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-20, Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors. These ASUs provide clarification on how to apply certain aspects of the new lease standard and allow entities to initially apply the standards from the adoption date.

At the election of the Company, upon conversion, the Company may deliver cash, common stock, or a combination thereof. The conversion rate was initially 6.1627 shares of common stock per one share of convertible preferred stock, which iswas equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $162.27 per share of common stock. As of June 30, 2018,29, 2019, due to the customary anti-dilution provisions, the conversion rate was 6.1709,6.1859, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $162.05$161.66 per share of common stock. The convertible preferred stock is excluded from the denominator of the diluted earnings per share calculation on the basis that the convertible preferred stock will be settled in cash except to the extent that the conversion value of the convertible preferred stock exceeds its liquidation preference. Therefore, before any redemption or conversion, the common shares that would be required to settle the applicable conversion value in excess of the liquidation preference, if the Company elects to settle such excess in common shares, are included in the denominator of diluted earnings per share in periods in which they are dilutive. The shares related to the convertible preferred stock have beenwere anti-dilutive during 2019 and most of 2018.

I.    FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

In the first quarter of 2018, the Company elected to early adopt ASU 2017-12, Derivatives And Hedging (Topic 815):Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedge Activities, which amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements of ASC 815. ASU 2017-12 requires the presentation and disclosure requirements to be applied prospectively and as a result, certain disclosures for the three and six month periods ending July 1, 2017 conform to the presentation and disclosure requirements prior to the adoption.


The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, stock prices and commodity prices. As part of the Company’s risk management program, a variety of financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, currency swaps, purchased currency options, foreign exchange contracts and commodity contracts, may be used to mitigate interest rate exposure, foreign currency exposure and commodity price exposure.


If the Company elects to do so and if the instrument meets the criteria specified in ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, management designates its derivative instruments as cash flow hedges, fair value hedges or net investment hedges. Generally, commodity price exposures are not hedged with derivative financial instruments and instead are actively managed through customer pricing initiatives, procurement-driven cost reduction initiatives and other productivity improvement projects. Financial instruments are not utilized for speculative purposes.


A summary of the fair values of the Company’s derivatives recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 201829, 2019 and December 30, 201729, 2018 is as follows:

The counterparties to all of the above mentioned financial instruments are major international financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk for net exchanges under these agreements, but not for the notional amounts. The credit risk is limited to the asset amounts noted above. The Company limits its exposure and concentration of risk by contracting with diverse financial institutions and does not anticipate non-performance by any of its counterparties. Further, as more fully discussed in Note M, Fair Value Measurements, the Company considers non-performance risk of its counterparties at each reporting period and adjusts the carrying value of these assets accordingly. The risk of default is considered remote.

FAIR VALUE HEDGES


Interest Rate Risk: In an effort to optimize the mix of fixed versus floating rate debt in the Company’s capital structure, the Company enters into interest rate swaps. In prior years, the Company entered into interest rate swaps related to certain of its notes payable which were subsequently terminated. Amortization of the gain/loss on previously terminated swaps is reported as a reduction of interest expense. Prior to termination, the changes in the fair value of the swaps and the offsetting changes in fair value related to the underlying notes were recognized in earnings. As of June 30, 201829, 2019 and December 30, 2017,29, 2018, the Company did not have any active fair value interest rate swaps.

J.    EQUITY ARRANGEMENTS


In April 2018, the Company repurchased 1,399,732 shares of common stock for approximately $200.0 million. In July 2018, the Company repurchased 2,086,792 shares of common stock for approximately $300.0 million.



In March 2018, the Company purchased from a financial institution “at-the-money” capped call options with an approximate term of three years, on 3.2 million shares of its common stock (subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments) for an aggregate premium of $57.3 million, or an average of $17.96 per share. The premium paid was recorded as a reduction of Shareowners’ equity. The purpose of the capped call options is to hedge the risk of stock price appreciation between the lower and upper strike prices of the capped call options for a future share repurchase.


The capped call hashad an initial lower strike price of $156.86 and an upper strike price of $203.92, which iswas approximately 30% higher than the closing price of the Company's common stock on March 13, 2018. As of June 30, 2018, there has been no change29, 2019, due to the upper andcustomary anti-dilution provisions, the capped call transactions had an adjusted lower strike prices.price of $156.72 and an adjusted upper strike price of $203.74. The aggregate fair value of the options at June 30, 201829, 2019 was $34.8$35.5 million.


The capped call transactions may be settled by net share settlement (the default settlement method) or, at the Company’s option and subject to certain conditions, cash settlement, physical settlement or modified physical settlement. The number of shares the Company will receive will be determined by the terms of the contracts using a volume-weighted-average price calculation for the market value of the Company's common stock, over an averaging period. The market value determined will then be measured against the applicable strike price of the capped call transactions.


In March 2015, the Company entered into a forward share purchase contract with a financial counterparty for 3,645,510 shares of common stock. The contract obligates the Company to pay $350.0 million, plus an additional amount related to the forward component of the contract. In June 2018, the Company amended the settlement date to April 2021, or earlier at the Company's option. The reduction of common shares outstanding was recorded at the inception of the forward share purchase contract in March 2015 and factored into the calculation of weighted-average shares outstanding at that time.


$750 Million Equity Units and Capped Call Transactions


In May 2017, the Company issued 7,500,000 Equity Units with a total notional value of $750.0 million (“$750 million Equity Units”). Each unit has a stated amount of $100 and initially consists of a three-year forward stock purchase contract (“2020 Purchase Contracts”) for the purchase of a variable number of shares of common stock, on May 15, 2020, for a price of $100, and a 10% beneficial ownership interest in one share of 0% Series C Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Stock, without par, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share (“Series C Preferred Stock”). The Company received approximately $727.5$726.0 million in net cash proceeds from the $750 million Equity Units net of offering expenses and underwriting costs and commissions, before offering expenses, and issued 750,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, recording $750.0 million in preferred stock. The proceeds were used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of short-term borrowings. The Company also used $25.1 million of the proceeds to enter into capped call transactions utilized to hedge potential economic dilution as described in more detail below.


Convertible Preferred Stock


In May 2017, the Company issued 750,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, without par, with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share. The convertible preferred stock will initially not bear any dividends and the liquidation preference of the convertible preferred stock will not accrete. The convertible preferred stock has no maturity date, and will remain outstanding unless converted by holders or redeemed by the Company. Holders of shares of the convertible preferred stock will generally have no voting rights.


The Series C Preferred Stock is pledged as collateral to support holders’ purchase obligations under the 2020 Purchase Contracts and can be remarketed. In connection with any successful remarketing, the Company may (but is not required to) modify certain terms of the convertible preferred stock, including the dividend rate, the conversion rate, and the earliest redemption date. After any successful remarketing in connection with which the dividend rate on the convertible preferred stock is increased, the Company will pay cumulative dividends on the convertible preferred stock, if declared by the board of directors, quarterly in arrears from the applicable remarketing settlement date.


On and after May 15, 2020, the Series C Preferred Stock may be converted into common stock at the option of the holder. The initial conversion rate was 6.1627 shares of common stock per one share of Series C Preferred Stock, which iswas equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $162.27 per share of common stock. As of June 30, 2018,29, 2019, due to the customary anti-dilution provisions, the conversion rate was 6.1709,6.1859, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $162.05$161.66 per share of common stock. At the election of the Company, upon conversion, the Company may deliver cash, common stock, or a combination thereof.


The Company may not redeem the Series C Preferred Stock prior to June 22, 2020. At the election of the Company, on or after June 22, 2020, the Company may redeem for cash, all or any portion of the outstanding shares of the Series C Preferred Stock at a redemption price equal to 100% of the liquidation preference, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends. If the Company calls the Series C Preferred Stock for redemption, holders may convert their shares immediately preceding the redemption date.


2020 Purchase Contracts


The 2020 Purchase Contracts obligate the holders to purchase, on May 15, 2020, for a price of $100 in cash, a maximum number of 5.45.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments). The 2020 Purchase Contract holders may elect to settle their obligation early, in cash. The Series C Preferred Stock is pledged as collateral to guarantee the holders’ obligations to purchase common stock under the terms of the 2020 Purchase Contracts. The initial settlement rate determining the number of shares that each holder must purchase will not exceed the maximum settlement rate, and is determined over a market value averaging period immediately preceding May 15, 2020.


The initial maximum settlement rate of 0.7241 was calculated using an initial reference price of $138.10, equal to the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock on May 11, 2017. As of June 30, 2018,29, 2019, due to the customary anti-dilution provisions, the maximum settlement rate was 0.7251,0.7268, equivalent to a reference price of $137.92.$137.59. If the applicable market value of the Company's common stock is less than or equal to the reference price, the settlement rate will be the maximum settlement rate; and if the applicable market value of common stock is greater than the reference price, the settlement rate will be a number of shares of the Company's common stock equal to $100 divided by the applicable market value. Upon settlement of the 2020 Purchase Contracts, the Company will receive additional cash proceeds of $750 million.


The Company will make quarterly payments ("Contracts Adjustment Payments") topay the holders of the 2020 Purchase Contracts quarterly payments ("Contracts Adjustment Payments") at a rate of 5.375% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, commencingwhich commenced August 15, 2017. The $117.1 million present value of the Contract Adjustment Payments reduced Shareowners’ Equity at inception. As each quarterly Contract Adjustment Payment is made, the related liability is reduced and the difference between the cash payments and the present value will accrete to interest expense, approximately $1.3 million per year over the three-year term. As of June 30, 2018,29, 2019, the present value of the Contract Adjustment Payments was $78.3$39.2 million.


The holders can settle the purchase contracts early, for cash, subject to certain exceptions and conditions in the prospectus supplement. Upon early settlement of any purchase contracts, the Company will deliver the number of shares of its common stock equal to 85% of the number of shares of common stock that would have otherwise been deliverable.


2017 Capped Call Transactions


In order to offset the potential economic dilution associated with the common shares issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock, to the extent that the conversion value of the convertible preferred stock exceeds its liquidation preference, the Company entered into capped call transactions with three major financial institutions.institutions (the "counterparties").


The capped call transactions have a term of approximately three years and are intended to cover the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock. Subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the capped call had an initial lower strike price of $162.27, which corresponds to the minimum 6.1627 settlement rate of the Series C Preferred Stock, and an upper strike price of $179.53, which is approximately 30% higher than the closing price of the Company's common stock on May 11, 2017. As of June 30, 2018,29, 2019, due to the customary anti-dilution provisions, the capped call transactions had an adjusted lower strike price of $162.05$161.66 and an adjusted upper strike price of $179.29.$178.85.

The capped call transactions may be settled by net share settlement (the default settlement method) or, at the Company’s option and subject to certain conditions, cash settlement, physical settlement or modified physical settlement. The number of shares the Company will receive will be determined by the terms of the contracts using a volume-weighted-average price calculation for the market value of the Company's common stock, over an averaging period. The market value determined will then be measured against the applicable strike price of the capped call transactions. The Company expects the capped call transactions to offset the potential dilution upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock if the calculated market value is greater than the lower strike price but less than or equal to the upper strike price of the capped call transactions. Should the calculated market value exceed the upper strike price of the capped call transactions, the dilution mitigation will be limited based on such capped value as determined under the terms of the contracts.


With respect to the impact on the Company, the 2017 capped call transactions and $750 million Equity Units, when taken together, result in the economic equivalent of having the conversion price on $750 million Equity Units at $179.29,$178.85, the upper strike price of the capped call as of June 30, 2018.29, 2019.


In May 2017, theThe Company paid $25.1 million, or an average of $5.43 per option, to enter into capped call transactions on 4.6 million shares of common stock. The $25.1 million premium paid was a reduction of Shareowners’ Equity. The aggregate fair value of the options at June 30, 201829, 2019 was $16.2$19.5 million.

M.    FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement,defines, establishes a consistent framework for measuring, and expands disclosure requirements about fair value. ASC 820 requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs and significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 — Instruments that are valued using unobservable inputs.
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, stock prices and commodity prices. The Company holds various financial instruments to manage these risks. These financial instruments are carried at fair value and are included within the scope of ASC 820. The Company determines the fair value of these financial

instruments through the use of matrix or model pricing, which utilizes observable inputs such as market interest and currency rates. When determining fair value for which Level 1 evidence does not exist, the Company considers various factors including the following: exchange or market price quotations of similar instruments, time value and volatility factors, the Company’s own credit rating and the credit rating of the counter-party.
The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis for each of the hierarchy levels:

The money market fund and other investments related to the West Coast Loading Corporation ("WCLC") trust are considered Level 1 instruments within the fair value hierarchy. The long-term debt instruments are considered Level 2 instruments and are measured using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s marginal borrowing rates. The differences between the carrying values and fair values of long-term debt are attributable to the stated interest rates differing from the Company's marginal borrowing rates. The fair values of the Company's variable rate short-term borrowings approximate their carrying values at June 30, 201829, 2019 and December 30, 2017.29, 2018. The fair values of the derivative financial instruments in the table above are based on current settlement values.


As discussedpart of the Craftsman® brand acquisition in Note F, Acquisitions,March 2017, the Company recorded a contingent consideration liability relating to the Craftsman® brand acquisition representing the Company's obligation to make future payments to Transform Holdco, LLC, which operates Sears Holdingsand Kmart retail locations, of between 2.5% and 3.5% on sales of Craftsman products in new Stanley Black & Decker channels through March 2032, which was valued at $114.0$134.5 million as of the acquisition date. The first payment is due the firstsecond quarter of 2020 relating to royalties owed for the previous eleventwelve quarters, and future payments will be due quarterly through the first quarter of 2032. The estimated fair value wasof the contingent consideration liability is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis based ontaking into consideration future sales projections, andforecasted payments to Transform Holdco, LLC, based on contractual royalty rates.rates, and the related tax impacts. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability was $180.2 million and $169.2 million as of June 29, 2019 and December 29, 2018, respectively. A 100 basis point reduction in the discount rate would have resultedresult in an increase to the liability of approximately $8 million as of the acquisition date. The liability may fluctuate in the future if there are changes to sales projections or the discount rate as a result of actual sales levels or changes in market conditions. There was no significant change in the fair value of the contingent consideration as of June 30, 2018.29, 2019.

The Company had no significant non-recurring fair value measurements, nor any other financial assets or liabilities measured using Level 3 inputs, during the first six months of 20182019 or 2017.2018.
As discussed in Note D, Accounts And Notes Receivable, the Company had a deferred purchase price receivable related to sales of trade receivables. The deferred purchase price receivable was settled in full in January 2018, and historically was repaid in cash as receivables were collected, generally within 30 days. The carrying value of the receivable as of December 30, 2017 approximated fair value.

Refer to Note I, Financial Instruments, for more details regarding derivative financial instruments, Note R, Commitments and Contingencies, for more details regarding the other investments related to the WCLC trust, and Note H, Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements, for more information regarding the carrying values of the long-term debt.

P.INCOME TAXES
P.    INCOME TAXES

The Company recognized income tax expense of $51.6 million and $76.3 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2019, resulting in an effective tax rate of 12.8% for both periods. Excluding the impacts of the acquisition-related and other

charges and the aforementioned Sargent & Greenleaf divestiture in the second quarter of 2019, the effective tax rates were 11.6% and 12.8% for the three and six months ended June 29, 2019, respectively. These effective tax rates differ from the U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to tax on foreign earnings, the effective settlements of income tax audits, statute expirations and the re-measurement of uncertain tax position reserves.

The Company recognized income tax expense of $1.0 million and $82.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 0.3% and 15.1%, respectively.. Excluding the impacts of the aforementioned EPA settlement charge in the second quarter of 2018, the tax charge recorded in the first quarter of 2018 related to the recently enactedenactment of new U.S. tax legislation, and the acquisition-related charges, the effective tax rates were 7.0% and 13.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively. These effective tax rates differdiffered from the U.S. statutory tax rate during these periods primarily due to tax on foreign earnings and the effective settlements of income tax audits.

The Company recognized income tax expense of $80.7 million and $160.4 million for the three and six months ended July 1, 2017, respectively, resulting in effective tax rates of 22.5% and 19.3%, respectively. The effective tax rates differed from the U.S. statutory tax rate during these periods primarily due to a portion of the Company’s earnings being realized in lower-taxed foreign jurisdictions, the utilization of U.S. tax attributes during the first quarter of 2017 due to the divestiture of the mechanical security businesses and the favorable settlement of certain income tax audits during the second quarter of 2017. Non-deductible transaction costs and other acquisition-related restructuring items partially offset the net tax benefits mentioned above for the three and six months ended July 1, 2017. Excluding the tax impact of the divestitures and acquisition-related charges for the three and six months ended July 1, 2017, the effective tax rates were 23.5% and 24.1%, respectively.


The Company is subject to examinations by taxing authorities in U.S. federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating its tax positions and the impact on income tax expense, which may require periodic adjustments, and which may not accurately anticipate actual outcomes. It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized benefit with respect to certain of the Company's unrecognized tax positions will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. However, based on the uncertainties associated with litigation and the status of examinations, including the protocols of finalizing audits by the relevant tax authorities which could include formal legal proceedings, it is not possible to reasonably estimate the impact of any such change.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. As of June 30, 2018, the Company has not completed its accounting for the tax effects of the enactment of the Act; however, in certain cases (as described below), the Company has made a reasonable estimate of the effects on its existing deferred tax balances and the one-time transition tax. In other cases, the Company has not been able to make a reasonable estimate and continues to account for those items based on its existing accounting under ASC 740, Income Taxes, and the provisions of the tax laws that were in effect immediately prior to enactment.

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company recorded a provisional charge of $23.1 million as an adjustment to the provisional amounts recorded at December 30, 2017 related to the re-measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits. The provisional charges were included as a component of income taxes on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

The Company operates in many countries throughout the world through numerous subsidiaries. In order to complete the accounting associated with the Act, the Company will continue to accumulate the relevant data, refine computational elements, monitor and analyze U.S. federal and state guidance if and when issued, and adjust its provisional estimates accordingly within the measurement period prescribed by SAB 118. Any adjustments could be material to income tax expense.

Provisional amounts

Deferred tax assets and liabilities: The Company remeasured certain deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the U.S. tax rates at which they are expected to become realized in the future. The provisional amount recorded in 2017 related to the re-measurement of its deferred tax balance resulted in a decrease to tax expense of approximately $252.5 million as of December 30, 2017. Upon further analysis of certain aspects of the Act and refinement of the calculations during the first quarter of 2018, the Company adjusted the provisional amount by $17.4 million as an increase to tax expense, which is included as a component of income taxes on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The Company is still analyzing certain aspects of the Act and refining its estimate, which could potentially affect the measurement of these balances or potentially give rise to new deferred tax amounts.

International provision tax effects: As of December 30, 2017, the Company recorded a provisional amount for the one-time transition tax on undistributed foreign earnings, resulting in an increase to income tax expense of $276.1 million comprised of an accrued provisional income tax payable of approximately $460.7 million, partially offset by the reversal of the deferred tax liability of approximately $184.6 million associated with certain legacy Black & Decker unremitted foreign earnings and profits which were previously designated as not being indefinitely reinvested. The remaining deferred tax liability on unremitted foreign earnings of $4.9 million represents withholding taxes which will become payable upon distribution. The Company is still analyzing certain aspects of the Act and refining its estimate, which may be adjusted, possibly materially, due to changes in interpretations and assumptions the Company has made, guidance that may be issued and actions the Company may take as a result of the Act.

R.COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in various legal proceedings relating to environmental issues, employment, product liability, workers’ compensation claims and other matters. The Company periodically reviews the status of these proceedings with both inside and outside counsel, as well as an actuary for risk insurance. Management believes that the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on operations or financial condition taken as a whole.
On January 25, 2019, IPS Worldwide, LLC ("IPS"), a third-party provider of freight payment processing services for the Company, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection and listed the Company as an unsecured creditor. As of December 29, 2018, there were outstanding obligations of approximately $50.8 million owed to certain of the Company's freight carriers. Such amounts had previously been remitted to IPS through a third-party financing program for ultimate payment to these freight carriers. However, due to nonperformance of IPS with respect to processing these payments and the Company's obligation to its freight carriers, an incremental $50.8 million charge was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2018. This charge did not include any amounts that the Company will attempt to recover from insurance and/or through the bankruptcy proceedings, which could ultimately reduce the loss exposure recorded.
In the normal course of business, the Company is a party to administrative proceedings and litigation, before federal and state regulatory agencies, relating to environmental remediation with respect to claims involving the discharge of hazardous substances into the environment, generally at current and former manufacturing facilities. In addition, some of these claims assert that the Company is responsible for damages and liability, for remedial investigation and clean-up costs, with respect to sites that have never been owned or operated by the Company, but the Company has been identified as a potentially responsible party ("PRP").
In connection with the 2010 merger with Black & Decker, the Company assumed certain commitments and contingent liabilities. Black & Decker is a party to litigation and administrative proceedings with respect to claims involving the discharge of hazardous substances into the environment at current and former manufacturing facilities and has also been named as a PRP in certain administrative proceedings.

The Company, along with many other companies, has been named as a PRP in a number of administrative proceedings for the remediation of various waste sites, including 2628 active Superfund sites. Current laws potentially impose joint and several liabilities upon each PRP. In assessing its potential liability at these sites, the Company has considered the following: whether responsibility is being disputed, the terms of existing agreements, experience at similar sites, and the Company’s volumetric contribution at these sites.
The Company’s policy is to accrue environmental investigatory and remediation costs for identified sites when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In the event that no amount in the range of probable loss is considered most likely, the minimum loss in the range is accrued. The amount of liability recorded is based on an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to each individual site and includes such factors as existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations, and prior experience in remediation of contaminated sites. The liabilities recorded do not take into account any claims for recoveries from insurance or third parties. As assessments and remediation progress at individual sites, the amounts recorded are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical and legal information that becomes available. As of June 30, 201829, 2019 and December 30, 2017,29, 2018, the Company had reserves of $250.7$236.8 million and $176.1$246.6 million, respectively, for remediation activities associated with Company-owned properties, as well as for Superfund sites, for losses that are probable and estimable. Of the 20182019 amount, $28.7$57.0 million is classified as current and $222.0$179.8 million as long-term which is expected to be paid over the estimated remediation period. The range of environmental remediation costs that is reasonably possible is $218.1$204.1 million to $351.6$336.0 million which is subject to change in the near term. The Company may be liable for environmental remediation of sites it no longer owns. Liabilities have been recorded on those sites in accordance with policy.
As of June 30, 2018,29, 2019, the Company has recorded $12.2$12.5 million in other assets related to funding received by the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and placed in a trust in accordance with the final settlement with the EPA, embodied in a Consent Decree approved by the United States District Court for the Central District of California on July 3, 2013. Per the Consent Decree, Emhart Industries, Inc. (a dissolved and liquidated former indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of The Black & Decker Corporation) (“Emhart”) has agreed to be responsible for an interim remedy at a site located in Rialto, California and formerly operated by West Coast Loading Corporation (“WCLC”), a defunct company for which Emhart was alleged to be liable as a successor. The remedy will be funded by (i) the amounts received from the EPA as gathered from multiple parties, and, to the extent necessary, (ii) Emhart's affiliate. The interim remedy requires the construction of a water treatment facility and the filtering of ground water at or around the site for a period of approximately 30 years or more. As of June 30, 2018,29, 2019, the Company's net cash obligation associated with remediation activities, including WCLC assets, is $238.5$224.3 million.
The EPA has also asserted claims in federal court in Rhode Island against certain current and former affiliates of Black & Decker and Emhart related to environmental contamination found at the Centredale Manor Restoration Project Superfund Site ("Centredale") site,, located in North Providence, Rhode Island. The EPA has discovered a variety of contaminants at the site, including but not limited to, dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls, and pesticides. The EPA allegesalleged that Black & Decker and certain of its current and former affiliatesEmhart are liable for site clean-up costs under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA") as successors to the liability of Metro-Atlantic, Inc., a former operator at the site, and demanded reimbursement of the EPA’s costs related to this site. Black & Decker and certain of its current and former affiliates contestEmhart contested the EPA's allegation that they are responsible for the contamination, and have asserted contribution claims, counterclaims and cross-claims against a number of other PRPs, including the federal government as well as insurance carriers. The EPA released its Record of Decision ("ROD") in September 2012, which identified and described the EPA's selected remedial alternative for the site. Black & Decker and certain of its current and former affiliatesEmhart contested the EPA's selection of the remedial alternative

set forth in the ROD on the grounds that the EPA's actions were arbitrary and capricious and otherwise not in accordance with law, and have proposed other equally-protective, more cost-effective alternatives. On June 10, 2014, the EPA issued an Administrative Order under Sec. 106 of CERCLA, instructing Emhart Industries, Inc. and Black & Decker and Emhart to perform the remediation of Centredale pursuant to the ROD. Black & Decker and Emhart Industries, Inc. disputed the factual, legal and scientific bases cited by the EPA for such an administrative order and have provided the EPA with numerous good-faith bases for Black & Decker’s and Emhart Industries, Inc.’stheir declination to comply with the administrative order at this time.order. Black & Decker and Emhart Industries, Inc. continue tothen vigorously litigatelitigated the issue of their liability for environmental conditions at the Centredale site, including the completioncompleting trial on Phase 1 of the Phase 1 trialproceedings in late July 2015 and the completioncompleting trial on Phase 2 of the Phase 2 trialproceedings in April 2017. TheFollowing the Phase I trial, the Court in Phase 1 of the trial found that dioxin contamination at the Centredale site was not "divisible,""divisible" and that Black & Decker and Emhart waswere jointly and severally liable for dioxin contamination at the site. In itsFollowing the Phase 2 Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law, entered on August 17, 2017,trial, the Court found that certain components of the EPA's selected remedy were arbitrary and capricious, and remanded the matter to the EPA while retaining jurisdiction over the ongoing remedy selection and implementation process. The Court also held in Phase 2 that Black & Decker and DeckerEmhart had sufficient cause for itstheir declination to comply with the EPA's June 10, 2014 administrative order and that no associated civil penalties or fines were warranted. The United States filed a Motion for Reconsideration concerning the Court's Phase 2 rulings and appealed the ruling to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. Black & Decker and Emhart's Motion to Dismiss the Appeal was denied without prejudice for consideration with the merits. On July 9, 2018, a Consent Decree was lodged with the United States District Court documenting the terms of a settlement between the Company and the United States for reimbursement of

EPA's past costs and remediation of environmental contamination found at the Centredale site. The terms of the Consent Decree arewere subject to public comment and Court approval. OnceAfter a full hearing on March 19, 2019, the Court approved and entered the Consent Decree on April 8, 2019. The settlement will resolveresolves outstanding issues relating to Phase 1 and 2 of the litigation with the United States. The 3rd PhaseCompany is complying with the terms of the settlement while several PRP's at the site have appealed the District Court's entry of the Consent Decree to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. Phase 3 of the litigation, and trial, which is in its relatively early stages, will address the potential allocation of liability to other PRPs who may have contributed to contamination of the Centredale site with dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls and other contaminants of concern. Based on the Company's estimated remediation and response cost obligations arising out of the Settlementsettlement reached with the United States (including the EPA’s past costs as well as costs of additional investigation, remediation, and related costs such as EPA’s oversight costs), the Company has increased its reserve for this site by $77.7 million to $145.8 million.site. Accordingly, in Junethe second quarter of 2018, thea $77.7 million increase was recorded in Other, net in the Consolidated Statementsconsolidated statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.operations. As of June 29, 2019, the Company has reserved $136.0 million for this site.

The Company and approximately 47 other companies comprise the Lower Passaic Cooperating Parties Group (the “CPG”). The CPG members and other companies are parties to a May 2007 Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent (“AOC”) with the EPA to perform a remedial investigation/feasibility study (“RI/FS”) of the lower seventeen miles of the Lower Passaic River in New Jersey (the “River”). The Company’s potential liability stems from former operations in Newark, New Jersey. As an interim step related to the 2007 AOC, on June 18, 2012,the CPG members voluntarily entered into an AOC with the EPA for remediation actions focused solely at mile 10.9 of the River. The Company’s estimated costs related to the RI/FS and focused remediation action at mile 10.9, based on an interim allocation, are included in its environmental reserves. On April 11, 2014, the EPA issued a Focused Feasibility Study (“FFS”) and proposed plan which addressed various early action remediation alternatives for the lower 8.3 miles of the River. The EPA received public comment on the FFS and proposed plan (including comments from the CPG and other entities asserting that the FFS and proposed plan do not comply with CERCLA) which public comment period ended on August 20, 2014. The CPG submitted to the EPA a draft RI report in February 2015 and draft FS report in April 2015 for the entire lower seventeen miles of the River. On March 4, 2016, the EPA issued a Record of Decision selecting the remedy for the lower 8.3 miles of the River. The cleanup plan adopted by the EPA is now considered a final action for the lower 8.3 miles of the River and will include the removal of 3.5 million cubic yards of sediment, placement of a cap over the entire lower 8.3 miles of the River, and, according to the EPA, will cost approximately $1.4 billion and take 6 years to implement after the remedial design is completed. (The EPA estimates that the remedial design will take four years to complete.) The Company and 105 other parties received a letter dated March 31, 2016 from the EPA notifying such parties of potential liability for the costs of the cleanup of the lower 8.3 miles of the River and a letter dated March 30, 2017 stating that the EPA had offered 20 of the parties (not including the Company) an early cash out settlement. In a letter dated May 17, 2017, the EPA stated that these 20 parties did not discharge any of the eight hazardous substances identified as the contaminants of concern in the lower 8.3 mile ROD. In the March 30, 2017 letter, the EPA stated that other parties who did not discharge dioxins, furans or polychlorinated biphenyls (which are considered the contaminants of concern posing the greatest risk to human health or the environment) may also be eligible for cash out settlement, but expects those parties' allocation to be determined through a complex settlement analysis using a third-party allocator. The EPA subsequently clarified this statement to say that such parties would be eligible to be "funding parties" for the lower 8.3 mile remedial action with each party's share of the costs determined by the EPA based on the allocation process and the remaining parties would be "work parties" for the remedial action. The Company currently is participating in the allocation process that is expected to be completed in late 2020. The Company asserts that it did not discharge dioxins, furans or polychlorinated biphenyls and should be eligible to be a "funding party" for a cash out settlement.the lower 8.3 mile remedial action. On September 30, 2016, Occidental Chemical Corporation ("OCC") entered into an agreement with the EPA to perform the remedial design for the cleanup plan for the lower 8.3 miles of the River. On June 30, 2018, OCC filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey against over 100 companies, including the Company, seeking CERCLA cost recovery or contribution for past costs relating to various investigations and cleanups OCC has conducted or is conducting in connection with the River. According to the complaint, OCC has incurred or is incurring costs which includesinclude the estimated cost ($165 million) to complete the remedial design for the cleanup plan for the lower 8.3 miles of the River. OCC also seeks a declaratory judgment

to hold the defendants liable for their proper shares of future response costs includingfor OCC's ongoing activities in connection with the remedial actionRiver. As of November 30, 2018, the Company's joint defense group's motion to dismiss OCC's complaint on various grounds and OCC's opposition brief were filed with the court. A decision on the motion to dismiss is expected in 2019. On October 10, 2018, the EPA issued a letter directing the CPG to prepare a streamlined feasibility study for the lower 8.3upper 9 miles of the River. There has been no determination asRiver based on an iterative approach using adaptive management strategies. The CPG is working cooperatively with the EPA on the streamlined feasibility study, which is anticipated to how the RI/FS will be modifiedcompleted in light of the EPA's decision to implement a final action for the lower 8.3 miles of the River.late 2019. At this time, the Company cannot reasonably estimate its liability related to the litigation and remediation efforts, excluding the RI/FS and remediation actions at mile 10.9, as the RI/FS is ongoing, the ultimate remedial approach and associated cost for the upper portion of the River has not yet been determined, and the parties that will participate in funding the remediation and their respective allocations are not yet known. 

Per the terms of a Final Order and Judgment approved by the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida on January 22, 1991, Emhart is responsible for a percentage of remedial costs arising out of the Kerr McGee Chemical Corporation Superfund Site located in Jacksonville, Florida. On March 15, 2017, the Company received formal notification from the EPA that the EPA had issued a ROD selecting the preferred alternative identified in the Proposed Cleanup Plan. The cleanup adopted by the EPA is estimated to cost approximately $68.7 million. Accordingly, in the first quarterAs of 2017,June 29, 2019, the Company increased its reserve by $17.1has reserved $27.1 million which was recorded in Other, net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.for this site.
The amount recorded for identified contingent liabilities is based on estimates. Amounts recorded are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical and legal information that becomes available. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from the estimates, given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating certain exposures. Subject to the imprecision in estimating future contingent liability costs, the Company does not expect that any sum it may have to pay in connection with these matters in excess of the amounts recorded will have a materially adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.


S.    COMMITMENTS AND GUARANTEES

COMMITMENTS — The Company has numerous assets, predominantly real estate, vehicles and equipment, under various lease arrangements. At inception of arrangements with vendors, the Company determines whether the contract is or contains a lease based on each party’s rights and obligations under the arrangement. If the lease arrangement also contains non-lease components, the lease and non-lease elements are separately accounted for in accordance with the appropriate accounting guidance for each item. From time to time, lease arrangements allow for, and the Company executes, the purchase of the underlying leased asset at the end of a lease term. The Company routinely exercises lease renewal options or early termination options. As part of its lease liability and right-of-use-asset calculation, consideration is given to the likelihood of exercising any extension or termination options. The present value of the Company’s lease liability was calculated using a weighted-average incremental borrowing rate of 3.75%. The Company determined its incremental borrowing rate based on interest rates from recent debt issuances and taking into consideration adjustments for collateral, lease terms and foreign currency. As of June 29, 2019, the Company recognized a lease liability and right-of-use asset of approximately $491 million. The Company's lease liability increased approximately $78 million as a result of acquiring right-of-use assets from new leases entered into during the six months ended June 29, 2019. The right-of-use asset is included within Other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, while the lease liability is included within Accrued expenses and Other liabilities, as appropriate.
