NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) for The Timken Company (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and notes required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162018. Certain amounts recorded in 2016 consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Note 2 - Change inSignificant Accounting Principles
Effective January 1, 2017, the Company voluntarily changed its accounting principles for recognizing actuarial gains and losses and expected returns on plan assets for its defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans, with retrospective application to prior periods. Prior to 2017, the Company amortized, as a component of pension and other postretirement expense, unrecognized actuarial gains and losses (included within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)) over the average remaining service period of active plan participants expected to receive benefits under the plan, or average remaining life expectancy of inactive plan participants when all or almost all of individual plan participants were inactive. The Company also historically calculated the market-related value of plan assets based on a five-year market adjustment. Under the new principles, actuarial gains and losses will be immediately recognized through net periodic benefit cost in the Statement of Income, upon the annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis if specific events trigger a remeasurement. In addition, the Company has changed its accounting policy for measuring the market-related value of plan assets from a calculated amount (based on a five-year smoothing of asset returns) to fair value. The Company believes these changes are preferable as they result in an accelerated recognition of actuarial gains and losses and changes in fair value of plan assets in its Consolidated Statement of Income, which provides greater transparency and better aligns with fair value principles by fully reflecting the impact of interest rate and economic changes on the Company's pension and other postretirement benefit liabilities and assets in the Company's operating results in the year in which the gains and losses are incurred. As of January 1, 2017, the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principles resulted in a decrease of $239 million in earnings invested in the business and a corresponding increase of $244 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss that was partially offset by the net impact of the direct effects of these changes on inventory and deferred taxes of $5 million.
The following tables reflect the changes to financial statement line items as a result of the change in accounting principles for the periods presented in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements:

Note 3 - Recent Accounting PronouncementsPolicies

NewThe Company's significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 1 - Significant Accounting Guidance Adopted:
Policies" of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. In MarchFebruary 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation2016-02, "Leases (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.842)" ASU 2016-09 simplifies various aspects of, which was adopted by the accounting for stock-based payments. The simplifications 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 requirements 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.amending the assumed proceeds from applying the treasury stock method when computing earnings per share to exclude the amount of excess tax benefits that would be recognized in additional paid-in capital.

OnCompany on January 1, 2017, the Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-09. The presentation of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for shares surrendered by employees to meet the minimum statutory withholding requirement was applied retrospectively. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09, $1.6 million was reclassified from the other accrued expenses line in the operating activities section of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows to the shares surrendered for taxes line in the financing activities section for the first nine months of 2016.

2019. In addition, the adoption of ASU 2016-09 resulted in the Company making an accounting policy election to change how it will recognize the number of stock awards that will ultimately vest. In the past, the Company applied a forfeiture rate to shares granted. With the adoption of ASU 2016-09, the Company will recognize forfeitures as they occur. This change resulted in the Company making a cumulative effect change to retained earnings of $0.9 million. For additional information, refer to Note 10 - Equity for the disclosure of the cumulative effect change. In addition, the Company began recording the tax effects associated with stock-based compensation through the income statement on a prospective basis, which resulted in a tax benefit of $1.9 million for the first nine months of 2017. Finally, the Company adjusted dilutive shares to remove the excess tax benefits from the calculation of earnings per share on a prospective basis. The revised calculation is more dilutive, but it did not change earnings per share for prior years.
In July 2015,August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, "Inventory2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 330)815): SimplifyingTargeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities", which was adopted by the MeasurementCompany on January 1, 2019. Updates to the Company's accounting policies as a result of Inventory.adopting ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2017-12 are discussed below.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

New Accounting Guidance Adopted:

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." ASU 2015-11 requires inventory2016-02 was issued to be measured atincrease transparency and comparability among entities by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the lower of costbalance sheet and net realizable value, which is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Under existing guidance, net realizable value is one of several acceptable measures of market value that could be used to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market and, as such, the new guidance reduces the complexity in the measurement. On January 1, 2017, thedisclosing key information about lease arrangements. The Company adopted the provisionsnew leasing standard on January 1, 2019 using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method. The Company also elected several practical expedients to not asses the following as part of ASU 2015-11adoption: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases; (2) the lease classification between finance and operating leases for any expired or existing leases; and (3) the recognition of initial direct costs for existing leases. The Company also elected to not recognize leases with a term of 12 months or less on a prospective basis.the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 did not have a materialthe lease standard had no impact onto the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial condition. For our disclosuresthe captions on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The cumulative effect of the changes made to the balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 for the adoption of the new lease standard was as follows:

(1) Due to the adoption of the new leasing standard, the Company recognized operating lease assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. In conjunction with the adoption of the new leasing standard, the Company reclassified $15.3 million of lease assets related to inventories, referpurchase accounting adjustments from the ABC Bearings Limited ("ABC Bearings") acquisition from Other assets to Note 5 - Inventories.Operating lease assets. These assets do not have material corresponding lease liabilities.


New Accounting Guidance IssuedThe Company determines if any arrangement is a lease at the inception of a contract. For leases where the Company is the lessee, it recognizes lease assets and Not Yet Adopted:related lease liabilities at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit interest rate. As a result, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease assets also consist of amounts for favorable or unfavorable lease terms related to acquisitions. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an operating expense while the expense for finance leases is recognized as depreciation expense and interest expense using the accelerated interest method of recognition. A lease asset and lease liability are not recorded for leases with an initial term of less than 12 months or less and the lease expenses related to these leases is recognized as incurred over the lease term.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities", which impacts both designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. ASU 2017-12 amends and clarifies the requirements to qualify for hedge accounting, removes the requirement to recognize changes in fair value from certain hedges in current earnings, and specifies the presentation of changes in fair value in the income statement for all hedging instruments. ASU 2017-022017-12 is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including in any interim period for which financial statements have not yet been issued, butThe Company adopted ASU 2017-12 effective January 1, 2019, and the effectimpact of adoption is requiredwas not material to be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of ASU 2017-12 will have on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting." ASU 2017-09 provides clarity on which changes to the terms or conditions of share-based payment awards require entities to apply the modification accounting provisions required in Topic 718. ASU 2017-09 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, including adoption in any interim period for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The Company does not expect that the adoption of ASU 2017-09 will have a material impact on the Company's results of operationsNew Accounting Guidance Issued and financial condition, as the Company does not anticipate future modifications of share-based payment awards.Not Yet Adopted:

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost.” ASU 2017-07 impacts where the components of net benefit cost are presented within an entity’s income statement. Service cost will be included in other employee compensation costs within operating income and is the only component that may be capitalized when applicable. The other components of net periodic benefit cost will be presented separately outside of operating income. ASU 2017-07 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period for which financial statements have not been issued or made available for issuance. Our initial assessment has indicated that the adoption of ASU 2017-07 will result in the reclassification of certain amounts out of "Cost of products sold" and "Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses" into "Other expense, net" in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Also, the adoption of this standard will result in the reclassification of certain amounts from "Cost of products sold" and "SG&A expenses" for the Mobile Industries and Process Industries segments into Corporate "Other expense, net". The amounts impacted may be material. The Company is currently performing further analysis on the effect that the adoption of ASU 2017-07 will have on the Company's results of operations.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” Prior to the issuance of the new accounting guidance, entities first assessed qualitative factors to determine whether a two-step goodwill impairment test was necessary. When entities bypassed or failed the qualitative analysis, they were required to apply a two-step goodwill impairment test. Step 1 compared a reporting unit’s fair value to its carrying amount to determine if there is a potential impairment. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, Step 2 was required to be completed. Step 2 involved determining the implied fair value of goodwill and comparing it to the carrying amount of that goodwill to measure the impairment loss, if any. ASU 2017-04 eliminates Step 2 of the current goodwill impairment test. ASU 2017-04 will require that a goodwill impairment loss be measured at the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for public companies for years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.


In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." ASU 2016-13 changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The new guidance will replace the current incurred loss approach with an expected loss model. The new expected credit loss impairment model will apply to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt instruments, net investments in leases, loan commitments and standby letters of credit. Upon initial recognition of the exposure, the expected credit loss model requires entities to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). The estimate of expected credit losses should consider historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics should be grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 does not prescribe a specific method to make the estimate, so its application will require significant judgment. ASU 2016-13 is effective for public companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currentlycontinuing to advance its analysis and evaluating the effect that the adoption of ASU 2016-13 will have on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." ASU 2016-02 was issued to increase transparency and comparability among entities by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about lease arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." ASU 2014-09 introduces a new five-step revenue recognition model in which an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of 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. ASU 2014-09 also requires disclosures sufficient to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. On July 9, 2015, the FASB decided to delay the effective date of this new accounting guidance by one year, which will result in it being effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Although early adoption is permitted, the Company intends to adopt the new accounting standard effective January 1, 2018.

The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are: (1) the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented, subject to allowable practical expedients and the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the earliest period shown and (2) the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of initial application accompanied by additional disclosures comparing the current period results presented under the new standard to the prior periods presented under the current revenue recognition standards. The Company plans to use the modified retrospective method.

The Company has substantially completed the assessment phase of the project, which has identified potential differences from the application of the new standard.  Upon adoption, the Company expects that certain revenue streams currently accounted for using a point-in-time model will utilize an over-time model due to the continuous transfer of control to customers.  The Company is currently designing and implementing procedures and related internal controls to address the potential differences identified, including the expanded disclosure requirements resulting from the new standard, and performing a deeper analysis of those potential differences to quantify the impacts of applying the new standard. The Company expects to finalize its evaluation of these potential differences that may result from applying the new standard to the Company's contracts with customers in 2017 and will provide updates on its progress in future filings.

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market,net realizable value, with approximately 55%57% valued byon the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method and the remaining 45%43% valued byon the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method. The majority of the Company's domestic inventories are valued byon the LIFO method and all of the Company's international (outside the United States) inventories are valued byon the FIFO method.

The LIFO reserve at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $174.4 million and $173.9 million, respectively. An actual valuation of the inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must be based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Because these calculations are subject to many factors beyond management’s control, annual results may differ from interim results as they are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation.

The LIFO reserves at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 were $167.4 million and $179.5 million, respectively. The Company recognized a decrease in its LIFO reserve of $12.1 million during the first nine months of 2017, compared with a decrease in its LIFO reserve of $0.2 million during the first nine months of 2016.

Note 98 - Contingencies
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have been identified as potentially responsible parties for investigation and remediation under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), known as the Superfund, or similar state laws with respect to certain sites. Claims for investigation and remediation have been asserted against numerous other entities, which are believed to be financially solvent and are expected to fulfill their proportionate share of the obligation.
On December 28, 2004, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”) sent Lovejoy, Inc. ("Lovejoy") a Special Notice Letter that identified Lovejoy as a potentially responsible party, together with at least 14 other companies, at the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site, Downers Grove, DuPage County, Illinois (the “Site”). The Company acquired Lovejoy in 2016. Lovejoy’s Downers Grove property is situated within the Ellsworth Industrial Complex. The USEPA and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“IEPA”) allege there have been one or more releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, allegedly including, but not limited to, a release or threatened release on or from Lovejoy's property, at the Site. The relief sought by the USEPA and IEPA includes further investigation and potential remediation of the Site and reimbursement of response costs. Lovejoy’s allocated share of past and future costs related to the Site, including for investigation and/or remediation, could be significant. All previously pending property damage and personal injury lawsuits against Lovejoy related to the Site have been settled or dismissed.

The Company had total environmental accruals of $5.4 million and $5.5 million for various known environmental matters that are probable and reasonably estimable at June 30, 2019andDecember 31, 2018, respectively, which includes the Lovejoy matter discussed above. These accruals were recorded based upon the best estimate of costs to be incurred in light of the progress made in determining the magnitude of remediation costs, the timing and extent of remedial actions required by governmental authorities and the amount of the Company’s liability in proportion to other responsible parties.
In October 2014, the Brazilian government antitrust agency, Administrative Council for Economic Defense, or CADE, announced that it had opened an investigation of alleged antitrust violations in the bearing industry. The Company’s Brazilian subsidiary, Timken do Brasil Comercial Importadora Ltda. ("Timken do Brasil"), was included in the investigation. In May 2019, the investigation division of CADE issued a report on the alleged antitrust violations and recommended that Timken do Brasil, among others, be found to have violated certain provisions of the Brazil Competition Law. The case has now moved to the tribunal level of CADE. The Company is continuing to advance its interests in this case. Based on management's evaluation of the findings contained in the CADE investigation report, the Company recorded expense in the three months ended June 30, 2019to establish a liability that represents management’s best estimate of the probable loss. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this case, the Company does not believe that the final resolution will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or liquidity, however, the effect of any such future outcome may be material to the results of operations of any particular period in which costs in excess of amounts provided, if any, are recognized.

The Company is a defendant in a 2017 lawsuit filed in the U.S. by a former employee asserting workplace-related negligence by Company medical personnel. The Company’s defense is ongoing and, while the incurrence of a liability is not considered probable at this point, management believes the low end of the range of the reasonably possible outcomes would be immaterial to the Company.

In addition, the Company is subject to various other lawsuits, claims and proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues costs associated with legal and non-income tax matters when they become probable and reasonably estimable. Accruals are established based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows to settle the obligations and are not reduced by any potential recoveries from insurance or other indemnification claims. Management believes that any ultimate liability with respect to these actions, in excess of amounts provided, will not materially affect the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Product Warranties:
TheIn addition to the contingencies above, the Company provides limited warranties on certain of its products. The following is a rollforward of the warranty liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2016:

The Company is evaluatingcontinues to evaluate claims raised by certain customers with respect to the performance of bearings sold into the wind energy sector. Accruals related to this matter are included in the table above. Management believes that the outcome of these claims will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position; however, the effect of any such outcome may be material to the results of operations of any particular period in which costs in excess of amounts provided, if any, are recognized.

When reviewing revenue by sales channel, the Company separates net sales to original equipment manufacturers from sales to distributors and end users. The following table presents the percent of revenue by sales channel for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively:
 Six Months EndedSix Months Ended
Revenue by sales channelJune 30, 2019June 30, 2018
Original equipment manufacturers57%57%
Distribution/end users43%43%
In addition to disaggregating revenue by segment and geography and by sales channel as shown above, the Company believes information about the timing of transfer of goods or services, type of customer and distinguishing service revenue from product sales is also relevant. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, approximately 11% and 9%, respectively, of total net sales were recognized on an over-time basis because of the continuous transfer of control to the customer, with the remainder recognized as of a point in time. The payment terms with the U.S. government or its contractors, which represented approximately 8% and 7% of total net sales during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively, differ from those of non-government customers. Finally, approximately 5% of total net sales represented service revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively.

Remaining Performance Obligations:
Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of orders meeting the definition of a contract for which work has not been performed and excludes unexercised contract options. Performance obligations having a duration of more than one year are concentrated in contracts for certain products and services provided to the U.S. government or its contractors. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for such contracts with a duration of more than one year was approximately $110 million at June 30, 2019.

Unbilled Receivables:
The following table contains a rollforward of unbilled receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2019:

The Company currently expects to make contributions and payments related to its global defined benefit pension plans totaling approximately $34 million in 2019. Approximately $24 million of this total relates to the 2019 payout of deferred compensation in July 2019 to a former executive officer of the Company, which will trigger a pension remeasurement during the third quarter of 2019.

During the first three and six months of 2017,ended June 30, 2018, the Company recognized actuarial lossesgains of $4.4 million$2.4 million. The remeasurement was required during the period as a result of the remeasurement of plan assets and obligations for one of the Company’s United States ("U.S.") defined benefit pension plans. The remeasurement was due to lump sum payments to new retirees exceeding service and interest costs for this plan.one of the Company's U.S. defined benefit plans.

The income tax expense for the third quarterthree and first ninesix months of 2017ended June 30, 2019 was calculated using the forecasted multi-jurisdictional annual effective tax rates to determine a blended annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35%21% primarily due to the projected mix of earnings in international jurisdictions with relatively lowerhigher tax rates and U.S. state and local income taxes. It was further impacted by additional discrete accruals recorded for uncertain tax benefitspositions related to foreign tax credits, which are partially offset by losses in jurisdictions with no tax benefit due to valuation allowances.the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("U.S. Tax Reform").

Note 1817 - Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be expected to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value 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 following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016:2018:

Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased and are valued at the redemption value. Short-term investments are investments with maturities between four months and one year and generally are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. A portion of the cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are valued based on net asset value. The Company uses publicly available foreign currency forward and spot rates to measure the fair value of its foreign currency forward contracts.


The Company does not believe it has significant concentrations of risk associated with the counterparties to its financial instruments.

Assets held for sale of $0.2 million were written down to their fair value of zero during the first quarter of 2016, resulting in an impairment charge of $0.2 million. The fair value of these assets was based on the price that the Company expected to receive when it disposed of these assets.

On March 17, 2016, the Company announced the closure of its Altavista bearing plant. The Company completed the closure of this manufacturing facility on March 31, 2017. The Altavista bearing plant, with a carrying value of $5.6 million, was written down to its fair value of $3.2 million during the first quarter of 2016, resulting in an impairment charge of $2.4 million. The fair value for the plant was based on the price that the Company expected to receive from the sale of this facility. During the third quarter of 2016, the Company reevaluated the fair value of this facility. The Altavista bearing plant was written down to its fair value of $2.5 million during the third quarter of 2016, resulting in an additional impairment of $0.7 million. During the second quarter of 2017, this facility was reclassified to assets held for sale2019 and included in other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. On July 14, 2017, this facility was sold for a pretax gain of approximately $1.6 million.

In August 2016, the Company completed the consultation process to close the manufacturing operations in Benoni. The Benoni facility will continue to recondition bearings and assemble rail bearings. Equipment at this facility, with a carrying value of $0.5 million, was written down to its fair value of zero during the third quarter of 2016, resulting in an impairment charge of $0.5 million. The fair value for the equipment was based on the price that the Company expected to receive from the sale of the equipment.2018, respectively.

Financial Instruments:
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, accounts receivable, net,trade accounts payable, trade, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, accounts receivable, net,trade accounts payable trade and short-term borrowings are a reasonable estimate of their fair value. Due to the nature of fair value calculations for variable-rate debt, the carrying value of the Company's long-term variable ratevariable-rate debt is a reasonable estimate of its fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate debt, based on quoted market prices, was $723.9$1,141.1 million and $532.2$1,077.5 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively. The carrying value of this debt was $684.3$1,069.5 million and $507.3$1,070.7 million at SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, respectively. The fair value of long-term fixed-rate debt was measured using Level 2 inputs.


The Company does not believe it has significant concentrations of risk associated with the counterparties to its financial instruments.

Note 1918 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are foreign currency exchange rate risk commodity price risk and interest rate risk. Forward exchange contracts on various foreign currencies are entered into in order to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with certain of the Company’sCompany's commitments denominated in foreign currencies. From time to time, interest rate swaps are used to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s fixed and floating-rate borrowings.

The Company designates certain foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted revenues and expenses and certain interest rate hedges as fair valuecash flow hedges of fixed-rate borrowings.

The Company does not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 and December 31, 2016,2018, the Company had $223.2$222.8 million and $282.8$218.8 million, respectively, of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts at notional value. Refer to Note 1817 - Fair Value for the fair value disclosure of derivative financial instruments.

Cash Flow Hedging Strategy:

For certain derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk), the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The remaining gain or loss on the derivative instrument in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows of the hedged item, if any (i.e., the ineffective portion), or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness, are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income during the current period.

To protect against a reduction in the value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from export sales, over the next year, the Company has instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. The Company hedges portions of its forecasted revenue or expensecash flows denominated in foreign currencies with forward contracts. When the dollar strengthens significantly against foreign currencies, the decline in the present value of future foreign currency revenue is offset by gains in the fair value of the forward contracts designated as hedges. Conversely, when the dollar weakens, the increase in the present value of future foreign currency cash flows is offset by losses in the fair value of the forward contracts.

The maximum length of time over which the Company hedges its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecastedforecast transactions is generally 18eighteen months or less.
Fair Value Hedging Strategy:

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges (i.e., hedging the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset or a liability or an identified portion thereof that is attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in the same line item associated with the hedged item (i.e., in interest expense when the hedged item is fixed-rate debt).


Purpose for Derivative Instruments not Designateddesignated as Hedging Instruments:

For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, the instruments are typically are forward contracts. In general, the practice is to reduce volatility by selectively hedging transaction exposures including intercompany loans, accounts payable and accounts receivable. Intercompany loans between entities with different functional currencies typically are hedged with a forward contract at the inception of the loan with a maturity date atcorresponding to the maturity of the loan. The revaluation of these contracts, as well as the revaluation of the underlying balance sheet items, is recorded directly to the income statement so the adjustment generally offsets the revaluation of the underlying balance sheet items to protect cash payments and reduce income statement volatility.

Note 20 - Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act

The U.S. Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act ("CDSOA") provides for distribution of monies collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection ("U.S. Customs") on entries of merchandise subject to antidumping orders that entered the U.S. prior to October 1, 2007 to qualifying domestic producers where the domestic producers have continued to invest in their technology, equipment and people. During the third quarter of 2016, the Company recognized CDSOA expense of $0.2 million. During the first nine months of 2016, the Company recognized pretax CDSOA income, net of related expenses, of $53.6 million.

In September 2002, the World Trade Organization ruled that CDSOA payments are not consistent with international trade rules. In February 2006, U.S. legislation was enacted that ended CDSOA distributions for imports covered by antidumping duty orders entering the U.S. after September 30, 2007. Instead, any such antidumping duties collected would remain with the U.S. Treasury.

CDSOA has been the subject of significant litigation since 2002 and U.S. Customs has withheld CDSOA distributions for certain years while litigation was ongoing. However, much of the CDSOA litigation that involves antidumping orders where Timken is a qualifying domestic producer has concluded.

Subsequently, the Company was notified by letters dated March 25, 2016 and June 24, 2016 that funds were being distributed to the Company. On April 1, 2016 and July 1, 2016, the Company received CDSOA distributions of $48.1 million and $6.3 million, respectively, representing funds that would have been distributed to the Company at the end of calendar years 2011 through 2015.

While some of the challenges to CDSOA have been resolved, others are still in litigation. Since there continue to be legal challenges to CDSOA, U.S. Customs has advised all affected domestic producers that it is possible that CDSOA distributions could be subject to clawback. Management of the Company believes that the likelihood of any clawback is remote.

The Company presents net debt because it believes net debt is more representative of the Company's financial position than total debt due to the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by the Company.Company and the ability to utilize such cash and cash equivalents to reduce debt if needed.

At SeptemberJune 30, 20172019, $137.0$161.0 million of the Company's $137.2$166.8 million of cash and cash equivalents resided in jurisdictions outside the U.S. It is the Company's practice to use available cash in the U.S. to pay down its Senior Credit Facility or Accounts Receivable Facility in order to minimize total interest expense. Repatriation of non-U.S. cash could be subject to domestic and foreign taxes and some portion may be subject to governmental restrictions. Part of the Company's strategy is to grow in attractive market sectors, many of which are outside the U.S. This strategy includes making investments in facilities, equipment and potential new acquisitions. The Company plans to fund these investments, as well as meet working capital requirements, with cash and cash equivalents and unused lines of credit within the geographic location of these investments where feasible.

The Company expects that any cash requirements in excess of cash on hand and cash generated from operating activities will be met by the committed funds available under its Accounts Receivable Facility and Senior Credit Facility. Management believes it has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations through the term of the Senior Credit Facility.

The Company has a $100 million Accounts Receivable Facility, which matures on November 30, 2018.2021. The Accounts Receivable Facility is subject to certain borrowing base limitations and is secured by certain domestic accounts receivable of the Company. Certain borrowing base limitations reduced the availability ofBorrowings under the Accounts Receivable Facility to $80.3 millionwere not reduced by any such borrowing base limitations at SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2019. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, the Company had $74.8$100.0 million in outstanding borrowings, which reduced the availability under the facility to $5.5 million.zero. The interest rate on the Accounts Receivable Facility is variable and was 2.07%3.32% as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, which reflects the prevailing commercial paper rate plus facility fees.

The
On June 25, 2019, the Company has a $500 millionentered into the Senior Credit Facility, which is a $650.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility that matures on June 19, 2020.25, 2024. At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, the Senior Credit Facility had outstanding borrowings of $91.2$54.6 million, which reduced the availability to $408.8$595.4 million. The Senior Credit Facility has two financial covenants: a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio. At September 30, 2017, the Company was in full compliance with the covenants under the Senior Credit Facility and its other debt agreements. The maximum consolidated leverage ratio permitted under the Senior Credit Facility is 3.5 to 1.0 (3.75 to 1.0(increasing for a limited time period up to four quarters following an acquisition with a purchase price of $200 million or greater)qualifying acquisitions). As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, the Company's consolidated leverage ratio was 2.232.4 to 1.0. The minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio permitted under the Senior Credit Facility is 3.53.0 to 1.0. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, the Company's consolidated interest coverage ratio was 13.5710.9 to 1.0.


The interest rate under the Senior Credit Facility is variable and represents a blended U.S. Dollar and Euro rate with a spread based on the Company's debt rating. This average rate on outstanding U.S. Dollar borrowings was 1.59%3.57% and the average rate on outstanding Euro borrowings was 1.09% as of SeptemberJune 30, 2017.2019. In addition, the Company pays a facility fee based on the consolidated leverage ratio multiplied by the aggregate commitments of all of the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility.

Other sources of liquidity include short-term lines of credit for certain of the Company's foreign subsidiaries, which provide for borrowings of up to approximately $250.0 million in the aggregate.$272.6 million. Most of these credit lines are uncommitted. At SeptemberJune 30, 2017,2019, the Company had borrowings outstanding of $35.5$37.3 million and bank guarantees of $2.0$0.4 million, which reduced the aggregate availability under these facilities to $212.5approximately $234.9 million.

On September 11, 2018, the Company entered into the 2023 Term Loan and borrowed $350 million.

Refer to Note 7 - Financing Arrangements to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

At June 30, 2019, the Company was in full compliance with all applicable covenants on its outstanding debt, and the Company expects to remain in full compliance with its debt covenants. However, the Company may need to limit its borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility or other facilities from time to time in order to remain in compliance. As of SeptemberJune 30, 20172019, the Company could have borrowed the full amounts available under the Senior Credit Facility and Accounts Receivable Facility and still would have been in compliance with its debt covenants.

Financing Obligations and Other Commitments:
During the first ninesix months of 2017,2019, the Company made cash contributions of $8.8$6.9 million to its global defined benefit pension plans and $2.0 million to its other postretirement benefit plans. The Company currently expects to make contributions and payments related to its global defined benefit pension plans in 2017 totaling approximately $10 million. Returns for$34 million in 2019. Approximately $24 million of this total relates to the Company's U.S. defined benefit planexpected 2019 payout of deferred compensation to a former executive officer of the Company, which is expected to trigger a pension assets forremeasurement during the first nine monthsthird quarter of 2017 were approximately 10.1%. Returns for the Company's global defined benefit pension plan assets in 2016 were 8.5%, which was above the weighted-average expected rate of return of 5.78% predominantly due to both strong returns in equity and fixed-income markets.2019. The Company also expects to record pension expensemake payments of approximately $15$5 million to its other postretirement benefit plans in 2017, including2019. During July 2019, the mark-to-marketCompany announced changes to the medical plan offerings for certain of its postretirement benefit plans, effective January 1, 2020, which will impact the benefits provided to certain retirees. These plan amendments are expected to trigger a remeasurement losses of approximately $4 million recorded during the firstthird quarter compared withof 2019. Excluding mark-to-market charges, the Company expects slightly lower pension expense of $73.4 millionand other post-retirement benefits expense. Pension and other post-retirement mark-to-market charges are not accounted for in 2016, which included approximately $60 million of mark-to-market remeasurement losses. The amount for 2017 doesthe 2019 outlook because such amounts will not include actuarial gains and losses that will be recognized immediately through earnings as a result of the remeasurement of pension plan assets and obligations inknown until the fourth quarter of 2017.2019, or on an interim basis where specific events trigger a remeasurement.
 
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities or other persons.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:
The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S.United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. The Company reviews its critical accounting policies throughout the year. The Company has concluded that there have been no significant changes to its critical accounting policies or estimates, as described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162018, during the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 20172019 other than the change in accounting principles described below..

Benefit Plans:
Effective January 1, 2017, the Company voluntarily changed its accounting principles for recognizing actuarial gains and losses and expected returns on plan assets for its defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans, with retrospective application to prior periods. Prior to 2017, the Company amortized, as a component of pension and other postretirement expense, unrecognized actuarial gains and losses (included within Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)) over the average remaining service period of active plan participants expected to receive benefits under the plan, or average remaining life expectancy of inactive plan participants when all or almost all of individual plan participants were inactive. The Company also historically calculated the market-related value of plan assets based on a five-year market adjustment. Under the new principles, actuarial gains and losses will be immediately recognized through net periodic benefit cost in the Statement of Income, upon the annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis if specific events trigger a remeasurement. In addition, the Company has changed its accounting policy for measuring the market-related value of plan assets from a calculated amount (based on a five-year smoothing of asset returns) to fair value. The Company believes these changes are preferable as they result in an accelerated recognition of actuarial gains and losses and changes in fair value of plan assets in its Consolidated Statement of Income, which provides greater transparency and better aligns with fair value principles by fully reflecting the impact of interest rate and economic changes on the Company's pension and other postretirement benefit liabilities and assets in the Company's operating results in the year in which the gains and losses are incurred.
