NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
(DOLLARS AND SHARES (EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) IN MILLIONS, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
NOTE 1
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business
ITT Inc. is a diversified manufacturer of highly engineered critical components and customized technology solutions for the transportation, industrial, and energy markets. Unless the context otherwise indicates, references herein to “ITT,” “the Company,” and such words as “we,” “us,” and “our” include ITT Inc. and its subsidiaries. ITT operates through three segments: Motion Technologies (MT), consisting of friction and shock and vibration equipment; Industrial Process (IP), consisting of industrial flow equipment and services; and Connect & Control Technologies (CCT), consisting of electronic connectors, fluid handling, motion control, composite materials and noise and energy absorption products. Financial information for our segments is presented in Note 3, Segment Information.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a pandemic, resulting in certain local government-mandated site closures. While most of our businesses were deemed essential, we have experienced and continue to experience disruption in our operations due to supply chain challenges, decreased customer demand, temporary plant closures, and elevated safety standards to keep our employees safe. The Company continues to face certain risks and uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, including the severity of a resurgence of COVID-19 or newvariant strains of the virus, as well as the speedtiming, effectiveness, and availability of, distribution of theand people’s receptivity to, COVID-19 vaccines or other medical remedies and people’s attitudes towards receiving the vaccines.potential impacts from mandatory vaccination requirements. Due to these uncertainties, the severity and extent of future impacts from COVID-19, or any newincluding from variant strains of the virus, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and, in the opinion of management, reflect all known adjustments (which consist primarily of normal, recurring accruals, estimates and assumptions) necessary to state fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020, presented herein, has been derived from our audited balance sheet included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (2020 Annual Report) for the year ended December 31, 2020 but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. We consistently applied the accounting policies described in the 2020 Annual Report in preparing these unaudited financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2020 Annual Report.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are revised as additional information becomes available and may be impacted by the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic. Estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, asbestos-related liabilities and recoveries from insurers, revenue recognition, unrecognized tax benefits, deferred tax valuation allowances, projected benefit obligations for postretirement plans, accounting for business combinations, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment testing, environmental liabilities and assets, allowance for credit losses and inventory valuation. Actual results could differ from these estimates. In
Effective July 1, 2021, the third quarterCompany divested the entity holding legacy asbestos-related assets and liabilities to a third-party. As a result of 2020 we extended the measurement period over which we estimate our asbestos liability to include unasserted claims through 2052, which istransaction, all associated asbestos-related assets and liabilities were removed from the full time period over which we currently expect claims to be filed against us. Refer toCompany’s consolidated balance sheet. See Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, for further information.
ITT’s quarterly financial periods end on the Saturday that is closest to the last day of the calendar quarter, except for the last quarterly period of the fiscal year, which ends on December 31st. For ease of presentation, the quarterly financial statements included herein are described as endingITT’s third quarter for 2021 and 2020 ended on the last day of the calendar quarter.October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively, and were both thirteen-week periods.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

NOTE 2
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standard updates (ASUs). ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to not have minimala material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:
In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting and ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, respectively. Together, the ASUs provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This guidance was effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. We do not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on our operating results, financial position, or cash flows; however, we will continue to monitor the potential impact, if adopted.
NOTE 3

2020 Global Restructuring Plan
During 2020, we initiated an organizational-wide restructuring plan to reduce the overall cost structure of the Company primarily in response to a reduction in demand fromdue to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The lowerincome tax expense and effective tax rate for the three months ended October 2, 2021 reflects a reduction in the current forecasted full-year effective tax rate primarily due to earnings mix, as well as a $1.9 tax benefit from a valuation allowance reversal in Brazil.
The income tax expense and effective tax rate for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 reflects the reversal of previously recorded deferred tax assets of $116.9 related to the Company’s divestiture of InTelCo. See Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, for further information.
The income tax benefit and effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020 is primarily due to the tax benefit resulting from the asbestos remeasurement charge of $135.9 in the third quarter. Additionally, the effective tax rate during the first quarterthree-month period in 2020 includes a benefit of 2021 was primarily driven by favorable permanent$3.2 related to previously unrecognized tax benefits from statute of limitations expirations.

On March 11, 2021, President Biden signed into law the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA), a $1.9 trillion COVID-19 stimulus legislationbill to accelerate the United States' recovery from the economic and health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. ARPA builds upon many of the measures in the CARESCoronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act from March 2020 (the 2020 CARES Act) and the Consolidated Appropriations Act from December 2020. The Act extends the employee retention credit through the end of 2021 and maintains the credit per employee per quarter initially included in the Consolidated Appropriations Act. During the three and nine months ended March 31,October 2, 2021, the Company recognized a benefit of $2.4$0.9 and $5.0, respectively, from the employee retention credit. During the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020, the Company recognized a benefit of $1.8 and $8.7, respectively. The benefit was recorded in operating income and related to the employer portion of payroll taxes. Certain non-U.S. jurisdictions have enacted similar stimulus measures. We continue to monitor any effects that may result from the ARPA and 2020 CARES Act or other similar legislation globally.
The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions and is subject to examination by tax authorities in these jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in several jurisdictions including the Czech Republic, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Italy, and the U.S. and Venezuela. The estimated tax liability calculation for unrecognized tax benefits considers uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in various tax jurisdictions. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from the current estimate of the unrecognized tax benefit. Over the next 12 months, the net amount of the tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits in foreign and domestic jurisdictions could decrease by approximately $17 due to changes in audit status, expiration of statutes of limitations and other events. In addition, the settlement of any future examinations relating to the 2011 and prior tax years could

result in changes in amounts attributable to the Company under its Tax Matters Agreement with Exelis Inc. and Xylem Inc. relating to the Company’s 2011 spin-off of those businesses.

During the first quarter of 2020, we recorded an impairment of $4.0 for a business within the IP segment due to challenging economic conditions in the upstream oil and gas market combined with impacts associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Long-lived assets of the business, with a carrying value of $14.0, primarily building and improvements, machinery and equipment, were reduced to their current estimated fair value of $10.0. The estimate of fair value, categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, was determined based on a market approach estimating the net proceeds that would be received for the sale of the assets. Significant additional adverse changes to the economic environment or future cash flows of our businesses could cause us to record additional impairment charges in future periods, which may be material.

As a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic combined with a decline in the upstream oil and gas market, during the first quarter of 2020, we determined that certain intangible assets within the IP segment, including an indefinite-lived trademark, customer relationships and proprietary technology, would not be recoverable, resulting in an impairment of $12.3. Significant additional adverse changes to the economic environment or future cash flows of our businesses could cause us to record additional impairment charges in future periods, which may be material.

All other key provisions of the Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements mirror those of the Revolving Credit Agreement described above, including all covenants.

POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company terminated its U.S. qualified pension plan by purchasing a group annuity contract from MassMutual Life Insurance Company (MassMutual), which fully assumed the responsibility for paying and administering pension benefits to approximately five thousand plan participants and their beneficiaries. In connection with the plan termination, the Company settled all future obligations under the plan by providing lump sum payments to eligible participants who elected to receive them, and by transferring the remaining projected benefit obligation to the insurance company. The termination was initially funded with plan assets of approximately $320 and cash of $8.4. During the second quarter of 2021, the funding was finalized, resulting in a gain of $3.4 presented within the interest and non-operating expenses (income) line in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The following table providestables summarize the components of net periodic benefit cost for pension plans and other employee-related benefit plans for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.plans.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. Some ofHistorically, these proceedings allegehave alleged damages relating to asbestos and environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes and acquisitions or divestitures. We will continue to defend vigorously against all claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including our assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as our current reserves and insurance coverage, we do not expect that suchexisting legal proceedings will have a material adverse impact on our financial statements, unless otherwise noted below.

Asbestos Matters
SubsidiariesPrior to the divestiture described below, former subsidiaries of ITT, including ITT LLC and Goulds Pumps LLC, have been sued, along with many other companies in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to purported asbestos exposure. These claims generally allege that certain products sold by ourthese entities or their subsidiaries prior to 1985 contained a part manufactured by a third party (e.g., a gasket) which contained asbestos. To the extent these third-party parts may have contained asbestos, it was encapsulated in the gasket (or other) material and was non-friable. As of March 31, 2021, there were approximately 26 thousand pending claims against ITT subsidiaries, includingLLC and Goulds Pumps LLC filedare wholly owned subsidiaries of InTelCo Management LLC (InTelCo), a former subsidiary of ITT.
On June 30, 2021, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Sapphire TopCo, Inc. (Buyer), a wholly owned subsidiary of Delticus HoldCo, L.P., which is a portfolio company of the private equity firm Warburg Pincus LLC. Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company transferred 100% of the equity interests of InTelCo to the Buyer, effective as of July 1, 2021, along with a cash contribution from the Company of $398 to InTelCo. As InTelCo was the obligor for the Company's asbestos-related liabilities and policyholder of the related insurance assets through its subsidiaries ITT LLC and Goulds Pumps LLC, the rights and obligations related to these items transferred upon the sale. In addition, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Buyer and InTelCo have indemnified the Company and its affiliates for legacy asbestos-related liabilities and other product liabilities, and the Company has indemnified InTelCo and its affiliates for all other historical liabilities of InTelCo. This indemnification is not subject to any cap or time limitation. In connection with the sale, the Company and its Board of Directors received a solvency opinion from an independent advisory firm that InTelCo was solvent and adequately capitalized after giving effect to the transaction.
Following the completion of the transfer, the Company no longer has any obligation with respect to pending and future asbestos claims relating to these matters. As such, InTelCo has been deconsolidated from our 2021 financial results, as we no longer maintain control of the entity. Therefore, all associated assets and liabilities are no longer reported on the consolidated balance sheet. The transaction resulted in various state and federal courts alleging injurya pre-tax gain of $88.8. Additionally, the Company recorded tax expense as a result of exposure to asbestos. Activity related to these asserted asbestos claims during the period was as follows:reversal of previously recorded deferred tax assets of $116.9, resulting in an after-tax loss of $28.1 recorded in the second quarter of 2021.

(a)Includes certain administrative costs such as legal-related costs for insurance asset recoveries and does not state a specific claim amount. After filing a complaint, the plaintiff engages defendants in settlement negotiations to establish a settlement value based on certain criteria, including the number of defendants in the case. Rarely do the plaintiffs seek to collect all damages from one defendant. Rather, they seek to spread the liability, and thus the payments, among many defendants. 
Estimating our exposure to pending asbestos claims and those that may be filed in the future is subject to significant uncertainty and risk as there are multiple variables that can affect the timing, severity, quality, quantity and resolution of claims, including uncertaintytransaction costs related to the divestiture of the entity holding legacy asbestos-related assets and liabilities.

(b)In the third quarter of an asbestos-related disease, changes in available medical treatments2020, we extended our projection to include pending claims and changes in medical costs, changes in plaintiff behavior resulting from bankruptcies of other companies that are or could be co-defendants, uncertainties surrounding the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case and the impact of potential legislative or judicial changes. Additionally, future insurance insolvencies or settlement agreements with insurers could impact the overall recoverability of our asbestos-related asset. The asbestos liability and related receivables reflect management’s best estimate of future events. However, future events affecting the key factors and other variables for either the asbestos liability or the related receivables could cause actual costs or recoveriesclaims expected to be materially higher or lower than currently estimated. Due to these uncertainties, it is difficult to predictfiled through 2052, reflecting the ultimate cost of resolving all pending and unasserted asbestos claims. We believe it is possible that future events affecting the key factors and other variables in estimating our liability andfull time period over which we expected recoveries could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.
Settlement Agreements
The Company periodically enters into settlement agreements with insurers to settle responsibility for insurance claims. Under the terms of the settlements, the insurers agree to a payment or specified series of payments to a Qualified Settlement Fund for past costs and/or agree to provide coverage for certain future asbestos claims on specified terms and conditions. to be filed against InTelCo.

In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations. We are responsible, or are alleged to be responsible, for ongoing environmental investigation and site remediation. These sites are in various stages of investigation or remediation and in many of these proceedings our liability is considered de minimis. We have received notification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and from similar state and foreign environmental agencies, that a number of sites formerly or currently owned or operated by ITT, and other properties or water supplies that may be or have been impacted from those operations, contain disposed or recycled materials or wastes and require environmental investigation or remediation. These sites include instances where we have been identified as a potentially responsible party under federal and state environmental laws and regulations.

NOTE 20
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
From time to time, the Company may use derivative financial instruments, primarily foreign currency forward and option contracts, to mitigate exposure from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as it pertains to receipts from customers, payments to suppliers and intercompany transactions, as well as from commodity price fluctuations. We record derivatives at their fair value as either an asset or liability. For derivatives not designated as hedges, adjustments to reflect changes in the fair value of our derivatives are included in earnings. For cash flow hedges that qualify and are designated for hedge accounting, the effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and subsequently recognized in earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion is recognized immediately in earnings. As of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, no derivatives were designated as hedges. Derivative contracts involve the risk of non-performance by the counterparty. The fair value of our foreign currency contracts are determined using the net position of the contracts and the applicable spot rates and forward rates as of the reporting date.    
As of October 2, 2021, the U.S. dollar equivalent notional value of outstanding foreign currency forward and option contracts, which are denominated in euros, was $60.3 and the fair value was $2.6, recorded within other current assets. There were no derivative contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2020. During the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, we recognized losses related to foreign currency derivatives not designated as hedges of $1.1 and $3.3, respectively, within general and administrative expenses. During the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020, we recognized a gain of $0.1 and a loss of $3.7, respectively.
From time to time, we enter into call option contracts to mitigate exposure to commodity price fluctuations. As of October 2, 2021, call option contracts were nominal. There were no call option contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2020.
We utilize market approaches to estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by discounting anticipated future cash flows derived from the derivative’s contractual terms and observable foreign exchange rates. The fair values of the derivatives summarized above are determined based on Level 2 inputs in the fair value hierarchy.

Our firstthird quarter 2021 results include:
Revenue of $698.4$689.6 increased $35.1$98.4, including favorable foreign exchange of $25.0.$5.9. Organic revenue increased 1.5%improved 15.6%, as a result of strong top-linetop line growth fromacross all our Motion Technologiessegments. In particular, our MT segment whichsaw strong growth in Friction aftermarket and continued to significantly outperformedoutperform the global OE automotive market. Additionally, we experienced significant growth in our CCT segment due to continued strength in connector sales, and our IP segment grew thanks to short cycle products, including pump parts and valves, as a result of strong performance in the industrial and biopharmaceutical markets.
Segment operating income was $118.8, an increase of $40.9 over the prior year that included asset impairment charges of $16.3 in 2020. Adjusted segment operating income improved $25.9 due to$111.2 increased $27.3, primarily driven by higher sales volume, strategic commercial actions, and net productivity, including the benefit of restructuring and cost actions executed in 2020.savings from productivity. These items were partially offset by supply chain disruptions resulting in increased raw material and shipping costs, strategic growth investments to drive future growth.and a reversal of temporary cost reductions that were executed in 2020.
Income from continuing operations of $0.99$1.00 per diluted share increased $0.04 versus last$1.55 as compared to the prior year which included aloss of $0.55 per share, mainly due to the negative impact of asbestos charges of $135.9 in the prior year period and higher segment operating income. The prior year asbestos benefit of $31.8.costs relate to extending the projection period over which we expect asbestos claims to be filed against InTelCo Management, LLC (InTelCo), the entity holding legacy asbestos-related assets and liabilities. Since then, we have divested our entire net asbestos liability. Adjusted income from continuing operations was $1.06$0.99 per diluted share, an improvement of $0.26 from the prior year due to an increase in segment operating income, as explained above, and a reduction in corporate costs.
Cash flow from operations for the year to date period was $70.8, an increase of 32.3% over the prior year, due to an increase in segment operating income and a decline in asbestos payments. This was partially offset by an increase in working capital to support sales growth.$0.17.
In terms of capital deployment, during the third quarter of 2021 we repurchased 0.60.5 shares of common stock for $50.0 and paid dividends of $19.0 during$50, bringing our total year-to-date open-market share repurchases to $100. In addition, in the firstthird quarter of 2021 we declared a dividend of $0.22 per share, which representswas a 28%30% increase infrom the quarterly dividends declared versus the first quarter of 2020.in 2020, bringing our total year-to-date dividend payments to $57.

Motion Technologies (MT)
MT revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31,October 2, 2021 increased $71.2, which included$60.5 and $276.0, respectively. Excluding the impact of favorable foreign currency translation of $20.3. Organic$5.3 and $43.1 for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, organic revenue increased $50.9 as sales$55.2 and $232.9, respectively. Sales from our Friction business grew 20% from a strong automotive recovery21% and significant35%, respectively, during the three- and nine-month periods driven by strength in aftermarket and continued OE outperformance versus global automotive production rates. Wolverine sales improved 9%33% and 30%, respectively, during the three- and nine-month periods due to growth in sealings and OE shims, andshims. KONI & Axtone sales increased 5%. for both the three- and nine-month periods, primarily from strength in automotive aftermarket equipment, partially offset by a decline in rail.
The automotive industry is currently experiencing a global semiconductor supply shortage. This shortage has created supply chain disruptions for our automotive OEM customers, resulting in temporary declines in production. As a result, demand for our OEM brake pads and parts has been and may continue to be adversely affected until the shortage is resolved. We do not expectWhile this shortage has had and may continue to have a materialnegative impact on our Friction business and its growth initiatives.revenue, we continue to significantly outperform automotive production rates globally.
Industrial Process (IP)
IP revenue for the three and nine months ended March 31,October 2, 2021 decreased $25.0, whichincreased $16.6 and $12.2, respectively. Both periods included favorable foreign currency translation impacts of $2.8.$0.8 and $9.4, respectively. Organic revenue decreased $27.8,increased by $15.8 during the three-month period, primarily driven by declinesgrowth in our short cycle business of 10% due to strength in the general industrial and mining markets. Organic revenue for the nine-month period increased $2.8, primarily driven by growth in pump projects of 12% due to strength in the oil and gas and general industrial markets. This was partially offset by a decline in our short-cycle business of 15% due2%, attributable to a decrease in baseline pumps and service within the oil and gas market and lower pump project activity. This was partially offset by growth in valves led by strong biopharma and industrial activity.

The level of order and shipment activity at IP can vary significantly from period to period due to pump projects which are highly engineered, customized to customer needs, and have longer lead times. Total orders during the three and nine months ended March 31,October 2, 2021 were $215.5, a decrease$242.5 and $689.2, respectively, an increase of 6.1%,25.5% and 12.2% as compared to the respective prior year period.periods.

Organic revenue declined $13.4,increased $21.4 and $17.8 during the three- and nine-month periods, respectively. The increase in both periods was primarily driven by declinesa strong performance in connector sales which grew 29% and 18%, respectively. The nine-month period was negatively impacted by a 10% revenue decline within the aerospace and defense market of 27% due to the decrease in global commercial air traffic as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as reduced production levels on key platforms. With the recentmarkets. Although we have seen an increase in commercial air travel, as airframers work through high levels of inventory, we do not expect to see a significant improvement in sales to improve in the second half of the year. The decline was partially offset by a 17% increase in connector sales across end markets, with particular strength in the industrial market.until 2022.

GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31,October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020 was $229.0$222.0 and $209.4,$190.6, respectively, reflecting a gross margin of 32.8%32.2% in both periods. Gross profit for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and 31.6%September 26, 2020 was $675.6 and $563.6, respectively, reflecting a gross margin of 32.5% and 31.9%, respectively. The increase in gross profit for the three- and nine-month periods was primarily driven by higher sales volumes and netvolume, productivity savings including the benefit of restructuring and cost actions executed in 2020.strategic commercial actions. These items were partially offset by increases in raw material, price increases, primarily driven by the supply of steel, copper,shipping, and tin.labor costs, as discussed further below.     
Since 2020, the pricescost of commodities,raw materials, including raw materialscommodities such as steel, used in our production processes have risen each quarter.has significantly increased. The rising prices are mainly a result of increased demand as companies increased their safety stock due to supply chain uncertainty amidfueled by economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and rising demand as economies recover whilewell as lower supply since global production capacity was cut.cut in 2020. The impact of higher commoditiescommodity prices on our financial results during firstthe third quarter of 2021 werewas partially mitigated by fixed-price supply contracts with suppliers.suppliers, especially in the first half of 2021. The expiration of these fixed-price contracts, continued future commodity price increases,raw materials inflation, and supply constraints mayhad a negative impact on our third quarter financial results and are expected to have an increasingly unfavorable impact on our fiscal 2021fourth quarter financial results. We intendhave been able to help mitigateoffset some of this impact through price increases.increases and productivity savings, and we expect to be able to do so in the fourth quarter and in 2022.
During 2021, worldwide supply chain challenges exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and the rising demand for raw materials, as discussed above, have created upward pressure on shipping costs globally. These supply chain disruptions have contributed to congested shipping ports around the world, causing shipping delays and, in many cases, additional costs to be incurred in order to meet customer demand. As a result of these external pressures, our shipping costs, including for inbound and outbound freight, have increased as compared to the prior year, which has negatively impacted our gross profit. At this time, we are unable to predict when these issues will be resolved. Continued supply chain challenges resulting in incremental shipping costs could have a material impact on our financial results.
The manufacturing industry is also currently experiencing a skilled labor shortage. This shortage has created difficulties for the Company in attracting and retaining factory employees and in meeting customer demand, resulting in additional labor costs. Additionally, in September 2021 the current U.S. administration issued a mandate on COVID-19 vaccinations as well as requirements for unvaccinated employees to be tested weekly for COVID-19. Such requirements could result in employee attrition and further difficulty in securing future labor needs. As a result of these circumstances, our financial results have been and may continue to be negatively impacted. For additional information regarding the government-mandate on COVID-19 vaccination, see Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”.

General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the three and nine months ended March 31,October 2, 2021 decreased $5.0, driven by cost reductions across all segments,increased $8.8 and $19.4, respectively. The increase was primarily due to higher incentive-based compensation as well as lower prior year personnel costs from proactive actions taken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which included savingsa temporary reduction in executive compensation and suspension of select 401(k) benefits for certain U.S. employees that have since been reinstated. Last year, we also benefited from ourhigher employee retention credits for the three- and nine-month periods, in connection with the 2020 global restructuring plan. In addition, bad debt expense declined by $3.5 due to collections from customers, and we generated strong returns from our corporate-owned life insurance policies of $1.7. These items wereCARES Act. The increase in both periods was partially offset by an increasea decline in long-term incentive compensation.bad debt expense. In addition, environmental costs were higher for the nine-month period by $4.5, primarily due to prior year insurance-related recoveries.
Sales and marketing expenses increased $4.0 and $1.7 for the three and nine months ended March 31,October 2, 2021, decreased $4.9,respectively, primarily driven by benefits in the prior year period from discretionary spending reductions and temporary personnel cost saving actions across all segments.

The nine-month period also benefited from a $3.4 gain from the fourthfinal pricing adjustment in the second quarter of 2020, the Company terminated its U.S. qualified pension plan by purchasing a group annuity contract from MassMutual Life Insurance Company (MassMutual), which fully assumed the responsibility for paying and administering pension benefits2021 related to approximately five thousand plan participants and their beneficiaries. In connection with the plan termination, the Company settled all future obligations under the plan by providing lump sum payments to eligible participants who elected to receive them, and by transferring the remaining projected benefit obligation to the insurance company. The termination was funded with plan assets of approximately $320 and cash of $8.4.termination.

The lowerincome tax expense and effective tax rate for the three months ended October 2, 2021 reflects a reduction in the current forecasted full-year effective tax rate primarily due to earnings mix, as well as a $1.9 tax benefit from a valuation allowance reversal in Brazil.
The income tax expense and effective tax rate for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 reflects the reversal of previously recorded deferred tax assets of $116.9 related to the Company’s divestiture of InTelCo. See Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies, for further information.
The income tax benefit and effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020 is primarily due to the tax benefit resulting from the asbestos remeasurement charge of $135.9 in the third quarter. Additionally, the effective tax rate during the first quarter of 2021 was primarily driven by favorable permanent benefitsthree-month period in both foreign and U.S. jurisdictions, partially offset by higher tax expense of $3.9 on future distributions of foreign earnings.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized2020 includes a benefit of $2.4$3.2 related to previously unrecognized tax benefits from statute of limitations expirations. The effective tax rate for the nine-month period in 2020 also includes tax benefits of $27.2 resulting from an internal reorganization in Europe.

This reorganization resulted in a refined projection of future earnings, which will result in the realization of a portion of our deferred tax assets.
We are closely monitoring the potential passage of new U.S. tax legislation, which could result in substantial changes to the current U.S. tax system, including changes to the statutory corporate tax rate. Further, changes in tax laws resulting from the employee retention credit.

LIQUIDITY
Funding and Liquidity Strategy
We monitor our funding needs and execute strategies to meet overall liquidity requirements, including the management of our capital structure, on both a short- and long-term basis. Significant factors that affect our overall management of liquidity include our cash flow from operations, credit ratings, the availability of commercial paper, access to bank lines of credit, term loans, and the ability to attract long-term capital on satisfactory terms. We assess these factors along with current market conditions on a continuous basis, and as a result, may alter the mix of our short- and long-term financing when it is advantageous to do so. We expect to have enough liquidity to fund operations for at least the next 12 months and beyond.
As of March 31, 2021, we had no outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit agreements. We also continue to take a proactive approach to preserve cash by renegotiating contracts with vendors where possible, applying aggressive cost savings measures to limit discretionary spending, and implementing actions to reduce our cost structure. The Company also continues to evaluate the various global governmental programs instituted in response to COVID-19, including the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA). ARPA builds upon many of the measures in the CARES Act from March 2020 and the Consolidated Appropriations Act from December 2020. ARPA and various global programs in the jurisdictions in which we operate generally provide for employee retention credits, workforce incentives, and incentive financing programs backed by governmental agencies. As of March 31, 2021, we have not incurred any borrowings under governmental loan programs.
25


We manage our worldwide cash requirements considering available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. We have identified and continue to look for opportunities to access cash balances in excess of local operating requirements to meet our global liquidity needs in a cost-efficient manner. We plan to continue to transfer cash between certain international subsidiaries and the U.S. when it is cost effective to do so. The passage of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (Tax Act) provided greater flexibility around our global cash management strategy related to the amount and timing of transfers, and weWe will also continue to support growth and expansion in markets outside of the U.S. through the enhancement of existing products and development of new products, increased capital spending, and potential foreign acquisitions. There were noDuring the nine months ended October 2, 2021, we had net cash distributions from foreign countries to the U.S. during the three months ended March 31, 2021.of $48.3. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we had net cash distributions from foreign countries to the U.S. of $498.2. The timing and amount of any additional future distributions remains under evaluation based on our jurisdictional cash needs.
The Company also continues to evaluate the various global governmental programs instituted in response to COVID-19, including the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA). ARPA builds upon many of the measures in the CARES Act from March 2020 and the Consolidated Appropriations Act from December 2020. ARPA and various global programs in the jurisdictions in which we operate generally provide for employee retention credits, workforce incentives, and incentive financing programs backed by governmental agencies. During the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, the Company recognized a benefit of $0.9 and $5.0, respectively, from the employee retention credit. During the three and nine months ended September 26, 2020, the Company recognized a benefit of $1.8 and $8.7, respectively. The benefit was recorded in operating income and related to the employer portion of payroll taxes. Certain non-U.S. jurisdictions have enacted similar stimulus measures. As of October 2, 2021, we have not incurred any borrowings under governmental loan programs. We continue to monitor any effects that may result from the ARPA and 2020 CARES Act or other similar legislation globally.
The amount and timing of dividends payable on our common stock are within the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will be based on, and affected by, a number of factors, including our financial position and results of operations, available cash, expected capital spending plans, prevailing business conditions and other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant. Therefore, there can be no assurance as to what level of dividends, if any, will be paid in the future. In the firstthird quarter of 2021, we declared a dividend of $0.22 per share for shareholders of record on March 16,September 13, 2021, which was a 28%30% increase from the quarterly dividends declared in 2020 and2020. Dividend payments during the nine months ended October 2, 2021 amounted to dividend payments of $19.0.$57.0.
During the first quarter of 2020, we completed our $1 billion share repurchase plan approved in 2006 and commenced repurchases under the $500 share repurchase plan approved in 2019. During the threenine months ended March 31,October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, we repurchased and retired 0.61.1 and 1.7 shares of common stock for $50.0$100.0 and $73.2, respectively, under our share repurchase plans.
30


Separate from our share repurchase plans, the Company repurchased 0.10.2 and 0.2 shares during the threenine months ended March 31,October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively, for an aggregate price of $11.0$11.7 and $10.2,$10.7, respectively, in settlement of employee tax withholding obligations due upon the vesting of RSUs and PSUs. All repurchased shares are canceled immediately following the repurchases.
Commercial Paper
When available and economically feasible, we have accessed the commercial paper market through programs in place in the U.S. and Europe to supplement cash flows generated internally and to provide additional short-term funding. Commercial paper outstanding of $196.4 as of March 31,October 2, 2021 was $58.8,issued through both the Company’s U.S. and Euro programs. Commercial paper outstanding under the U.S. program was $150.0, and was used to partially fund the divestiture of the entity holding legacy asbestos-related assets and liabilities (see Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies). Commercial paper outstanding under the Euro program was $46.4. As of December 31, 2020, we had commercial paper outstanding of $104.3, issued entirely under the Company’s Euro program. OutstandingAll outstanding commercial paper as of March 31, 2021for both periods had maturity terms of less than three months from the date of issuance.
Revolving Credit Agreements
OurOn August 5, 2021, we entered into a revolving credit facility agreement with a syndicate of third party lenders including Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement). Upon its effectiveness, this agreement replaced our existing $500 revolving credit agreementfacility due November 2022 (the 2014 Revolving Credit Agreement). The 2021 Revolving Credit Agreement matures in August 2026 and provides for increasesan aggregate principal amount of up to $200$700 of (i) revolving extensions of credit (the revolving loans) outstanding at any time, and (ii) letters of credit for a possibleface amount up to $100 at any time outstanding. Subject to certain conditions, we are permitted to terminate permanently the total commitments and reduce commitments by a minimum aggregate amount of $10 or any whole multiple of $1 in excess thereof. Borrowings under the credit facility are available in U.S. dollars, Euros, British pound sterling or any other currency that may be requested by us, subject to the approval of the administrative agent and each lender. We are permitted to request that lenders increase the commitments under the facility by up to $350 for a maximum total of $700 in aggregate principal amount. These increased commitments areamount of $1,050; however, this is subject to certain conditions and therefore may not be available to us. The Revolving Credit Agreement is intended to provide access to additional liquidity and be a source of alternate funding to the commercial paper program, if needed. Our policy is to maintain unused committed bank lines of credit in an amount greater than outstanding commercial paper balances. As of MarchOctober 2, 2021 and December 31, 2021,2020, we had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The provisions of the Revolving Credit Agreement require that we maintain an interest coverage ratio, as defined therein, of at least 3.0 and a leverage ratio, as defined therein, of not more than 3.0. In the event of a ratings downgrade of the Company to a level below investment grade, the direct and indirect significant U.S. subsidiaries of the Company would be required to guarantee the obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Agreement matures in November 2022.
On April 29, 2020, we entered into two 364-daycurrent or former revolving credit agreements totaling $200 (the Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements) which provide the Company with additional liquidity in excess of the Revolving Credit Agreement. The provisions of the Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements mirror those of the Revolving Credit Agreement, including all covenants. In addition, the Incremental Revolving Credit Agreements did not violate any negative covenants associated with the existing Revolving Credit Agreement. The Incremental Revolving Credit Agreement expired in April and we did not renew the agreements.
As of March 31, 2021, our interest coverage ratio and leverage ratios associated with our revolving credit agreements were within the prescribed thresholds. Additionally, we currently expect to remain within the prescribed thresholds until maturity.

Sources and Uses of Liquidity
Our principal source of liquidity is our cash flow generated from operating activities, which provides us with the ability to meet the majority of our short-term funding requirements.

The improvementdecrease in net cash provided byfrom operating activities of $446 was primarily due to an increasea one-time cash payment of $398.0 during the second quarter of 2021 related to the divestiture of the entity holding legacy asbestos-related assets and liabilities. In addition, we made working capital investments in segment operating income and a reduction in incentive compensation and asbestos payments.our business to support sales growth. These items were partially offset by an increase in working capital to support sales growth.segment operating income.

Investing Activities
The decreaseincrease in net cash used in investing activities was driven by a declinean increase in capital expenditures, of $5.0. Also, last year included $4.7 in payments related to our 2019 acquisition of Rheinhütte.which were $52.6 and $47.6 during the nine months ended 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Financing Activities
The decrease in net cash fromused in financing activities of $35.7 was primarily driven by a decline in revolver borrowings of $378.3 and an increase in dividends paidnet commercial paper borrowings of $18.9.$64.7 and prior year revolver repayments, net of borrowings, of $28.9. These items were partially offset by a declinean increase in repurchases of ITT common stock of $22.4 and repayments under our commercial paper program of $40.1.

Asbestos
Based on the estimated undiscounted asbestos liability as of March 31, 2021 for claims filed or estimated to be filed through 2052, we have estimated that we will be able to recover approximately 46% of the asbestos indemnity and defense costs from our insurers. However, actual insurance reimbursements may vary significantly from period to period and the anticipated recovery rate is expected to decline over time due to gaps in our insurance coverage, reflecting uninsured periods, the insolvency of certain insurers, prior settlements with our insurers, and our expectation that certain insurance policies will exhaust over time. Additionally, future recovery rates may be impacted by other factors, such as future insurance settlements, insolvencies, and judicial determinations relevant to our coverage program, which are difficult to predict. The Company has negotiated with certain of its excess insurers to reimburse the Company for a portion of its settlement or defense costs as incurred, frequently referred to as "coverage-in-place" agreements. Under coverage-in-place agreements, an insurer’s policies remain in force and the insurer undertakes to provide coverage for the Company’s present and future asbestos claims on specified terms and conditions that address, among other things, the share of asbestos claims costs to be paid by the insurer, payment terms, claims handling procedures and the expiration of the insurer’s obligations. The Company has entered into policy buyout agreements with certain insurers confirming the aggregate amount of available coverage under the subject policies and setting forth a schedule for future payments to a Qualified Settlement Fund, to be disbursed for future asbestos costs. Collectively, these agreements are designed to facilitate an orderly resolution and collection of ITT’s insurance and to mitigate issues that insurers may raise regarding their responsibility to respond to claims.
As of March 31, 2021, the Company has entered into coverage-in-place agreements and policy buyout agreements representing approximately 73% of our recorded asbestos-related asset. While there are overall limits on the aggregate amount of insurance available to the Company with respect to asbestos claims, with respect to certain coverage, those overall limits were not reached by the estimated liability recorded by the Company at March 31, 2021. We continue to pursue our right to reimbursement for asbestos-related losses

under certain insurance policies in the coverage litigation and explore negotiations with our insurers to maximize our insurance recoveries.
Although asbestos cash outflows can vary significantly from year to year, our current net cash outflows for defense and indemnity, net of tax benefits, are projected to average $20 to $30 over the next ten years, with declines in subsequent years. Net cash outflows for defense and indemnity, net of tax, averaged $13 over the past three annual periods. Total net asbestos cash outflows also include certain administrative costs such as legal related costs for insurance asset recoveries.
In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company's asbestos exposures and potential recoveries, it is difficult to predict the ultimate cost of resolving the pending and estimated unasserted future claims. We believe it is possible that the future events affecting the key factors and other variables over the projection period could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.dividends paid.
KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS AND NON-GAAP MEASURES
Management reviews a variety of key performance indicators including revenue, segment operating income and margins, and earnings per share, some of which are calculated other than in accordance with accounting principles other than those generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). In addition, we consider certain measures to be useful to management and investors when evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented. These measures provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations and management of assets from period to period. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dividends, and share repurchases. Some of these metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for measures determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures to be key performance indicators. These measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
“Organic revenue” is defined as revenue, excluding the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations acquisitions, and divestitures that did not meet the criteria for presentation as a discontinued operation.acquisitions. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency fluctuations is estimated using a fixed exchange rate for both the current and prior periods.

“Adjusted income from continuing operations” is defined as income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, asbestos-related impacts, restructuring, certain asset impairment charges, pension termination and settlement impacts, certain acquisition-related impacts, income tax settlements or adjustments, and unusual or infrequent items. Special items represent charges or credits, on an after-tax basis, that impact current results, which management views as unrelated to the Company’s ongoing operations and performance. The after-tax basis of each special item is determined using the jurisdictional tax rate of where the expense or benefit occurred. “Adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share” (Adjusted EPS) is defined as adjusted income from continuing operations divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. We believe that adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted EPS are useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating ongoing operating profitability, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
See Note 2, Recent Accounting Pronouncements, to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for information on recent accounting pronouncements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of ITT’sthe Company’s financial statements, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. ITTThe Company believes the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the 2020 Annual Report describes the critical accounting estimates that are used in the preparation of the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. There have been no significantmaterial changes concerning ITT’sthe Company’s critical accounting estimates as described in our 2020 Annual Report.Report.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There has been no material change in the information concerning market risk as stated in our 2020 Annual Report. See Note 20, Derivative Financial Instruments., to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for information on the Company’s use of derivative financial instruments to mitigate exposure from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and commodity price fluctuations.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarterperiod covered by this Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. In addition, we have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting despite the fact that many of our employees continue to work remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our business. SomeFor a discussion of these proceedings allege damages relating to asbestos and environmental exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and employee benefit matters, government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes and acquisitions or divestitures. Descriptions of certain legal proceedings, to which the Company is a party are contained insee Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements includedStatements.
As described in Part I, ItemNote 19, Commitments and Contingencies, on July 1, 2021, we completed the divestiture of this Report.InTelCo Management LLC (InTelCo), a former subsidiary which held our legacy asbestos-related assets and liabilities. In connection with the divestiture, we contributed approximately $398 to InTelCo. Pursuant to the purchase agreement, the buyer and InTelCo agreed to indemnify the Company and its affiliates for all legacy asbestos-related and other product liabilities, while the Company agreed to indemnify InTelCo and its affiliates for all other historical liabilities of InTelCo, which includes any losses with respect to release of, or exposure to, hazardous materials. These indemnification obligations are not subject to any cap or time limitation. As a result of the divestiture, we believe we have resolved our involvement in material legal proceedings related to asbestos exposure.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Reference is made to the risk factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, of our 2020 Annual Report, which are incorporated by reference herein. There have been no material changes with regard to the risk factors disclosed in such report.report, other than as noted below and our risk factor regarding exposure to legacy asbestos claims and related assets, liabilities and cash flows that no longer applies to the Company after the divestiture of the entity holding asbestos-related assets and liabilities, as discussed in Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements, other than as noted below.
The U.S. presidential executive order concerning mandatory COVID-19 vaccination of U.S.-based employees of certain companies that are suppliers to the U.S. government could have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations.
On September 9, 2021, U.S. President Biden issued an executive order requiring all employers with U.S. government contracts to ensure that their U.S.-based employees, contractors, and subcontractors, that work on or in support of U.S. government contracts, are fully vaccinated by December 8, 2021, and it only permits limited exceptions for medical and religious reasons. In addition, on September 9, 2021, U.S. President Biden announced that he has directed the U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) to develop an Emergency Temporary Standard (ETS) mandating either full vaccination or at least weekly testing of employees for employers with 100 or more employees. Although OSHA has not yet issued the ETS, it sent a proposed ETS to the U.S. White House’s Office of Management and Budget for review on October 12, 2021.
We cannot currently predict the impact that the executive order or the OSHA ETS will have on our workforce or business operations. Certain of our businesses, including CCT, are U.S. government contractors with U.S.-based employees, contractors and/or subcontractors that service or support U.S. government contracts. Furthermore, employees not subject to the executive order requirement and who are not fully vaccinated may be subject to the ETS that will require them to get a COVID-19 test at least once a week. Additional vaccine mandates may be announced in jurisdictions in which our businesses operate. Our implementation of these requirements may result in attrition, including attrition of critically skilled labor, and difficulty securing future labor needs. In addition, if we are not able to meet the requirements for government contractors we may lose these orders. These requirements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
Disclosure pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction & Syria Human Rights Act (ITRA)
This disclosure is made pursuant to Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 which added subsection (r) to Section 13 of the Exchange Act (Section 13(r)). Section 13(r) requires an issuer to disclose in its annual or quarterly reports whether it or any of its affiliates have knowingly engaged in certain activities, transactions or dealings relating to Iran. Disclosure of such activities, transactions or dealings is required even when conducted outside the United States by non-U.S. persons in compliance with applicable law, and whether or not such activities are sanctionable under U.S. law.
In its 2012 Annual Report, ITT described its acquisition of all the shares of Joh. Heinr. Bornemann GmbH (Bornemann) in November 2012, as well as certain activities of Bornemann in Iran and the wind down of those activities in accordance with a General License issued on December 26, 2012 by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (the General License).
