NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(Dollars in millions, except per share data)


Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

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 notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

2011
.

Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Note 2 -Recent Accounting Pronouncements


Effective January 1, 2012, the Company adopted the two-statement approach for the presentation of other comprehensive income in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-05, “ComprehensiveComprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation"Presentation of Comprehensive Income." The two-statement approach allows for the components of net income and total net income to be presented in a financial statement, immediately followed by a financial statement presenting the components of other comprehensive income and a total for comprehensive income. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as a result of adopting this new guidance.


In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220) – Deferral: "Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05." The amendments are being made to allow the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) time to redeliberate whether to present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income for all periods presented. As the FASB is considering the presentation requirements, entities should continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before ASU No. 2011-05.


The Company adopted ASU No. 2011-04, “FairFair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments"Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs”IFRSs" effective January 1, 2012. The new accounting requirements do not extend the use of fair value accounting; they only provide additional guidance on the application and disclosure of fair value accounting where its use is currently permitted. The new accounting requirements also expand the disclosures about fair value measurement.

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

An actual valuation of the inventory under the last-in, first-out (LIFO)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.

Note 3 – Inventories (continued)



The LIFO reserve at March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $296.5$296.9 million and $287.7$287.7 million, respectively. The Company recognized an increase in its LIFO reserve of $8.8$0.1 million and $9.2 million during the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2012, respectively, compared to an increase in its LIFO reserve of $6.0$9.7 million and $15.7 million during the second quarter and first quartersix months of 2011.

2011, respectively.


Based on current expectations of inventory levels and costs, the Company expects to recognize approximately $28.6$17.6 million in LIFO expense for the year ended December 31, 2012.2012. The expected increase in the LIFO reserve for 2012 reflects anticipated higher costs;costs, especially scrap steel costs, as well as higher quantities. A 1.0% increase in costs would increase the current LIFO expense estimate for 2012 by $7.2 million.$8.7 million. A 1.0% increase in inventory quantities would have no effect on the current LIFO expense estimate for 2012.

Note 10 - Segment Information


The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment is EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes). As of January 1, 2012, the Company modified the way in which certain selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses are allocated among segments to better reflect the use of shared resources by the business. Prior year amounts have been revised to be consistent with the new allocations.

The U.S. Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA)

CDSOA provides for distribution of monies collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (U.S. Customs) from antidumping cases to qualifying domestic producers where the domestic producers have continued to invest in their technology, equipment and people.

In September 2002, the World Trade Organization (WTO) ruled that CDSOA payments are not consistent with international trade rules. In February 2006, U.S. legislation was enacted that ended CDSOA distributions for dumped imports covered by antidumping duty orders entering the United States after September 30, 2007. Instead, any such antidumping duties collected would remain with the U.S. Treasury. Several countries have objected that this U.S. legislation is not consistent with WTO rulings, and were granted retaliation rights by the WTO, typically in the form of increased tariffs on some imported goods from the United States. The European Union and Japan have been retaliating in this fashion against the operation of U.S. law.

In 2006, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) ruled, in two separate decisions, that the procedure for determining recipients eligible to receive CDSOA distributions was unconstitutional. In addition, several other court cases challenging various provisions of CDSOA were ongoing. As a result, from 2006 through 2010 U.S. Customs withheld a portion of the amounts that would otherwise have been distributed under CDSOA.


12





In February 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed both of the 2006 decisions of the CIT. Later in December 2009, a plaintiff petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to hear a further appeal, but the Supreme Court declined the petition, allowing the appellate court reversals to stand. At that time, several court cases challenging various provisions of the CDSOA were still unresolved, so U.S. Customs accepted the CIT’s recommendation to continue to withhold CDSOA receipts related to 2006 through 2010 until January 2012.

U.S. Customs began distributing the withheld funds to affected domestic producers in early April 2012. In April 2012, the Company received CDSOA distributions of $112.8 million in the aggregate for amounts originally withheld from 2006 through 2010.

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.

Mobile Industries

In May 2012, the Company announced the closure of its manufacturing facility in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada (St. Thomas) to be completed in approximately one year and its intent to consolidate bearing production at this plant with its existing U.S. operations to better align the Company's manufacturing footprint and customer base. The Company will also move customer service for the Canadian market to its offices in Toronto. Production is expected to be transferred to the Company's operations in Ohio, North Carolina and South Carolina by mid-2013. The closure of the St. Thomas manufacturing facility will displace approximately

190 employees. The Company expects to incur pretax costs of approximately $55 million to $65 million in connection with this closure, of which approximately $20 million to $25 million is expected to be pretax cash costs. The Company has incurred pretax expenses of approximately $17.7 million as of June 30, 2012 including rationalization costs recorded in cost of products sold. During the second quarter of 2012, the Company recorded $16.5 million of severance and related benefits, including a curtailment of pension benefits of $10.7 million. The majority of the $16.5 million charge related to the Mobile Industries segment.


In March 2007, the Company announced the closure of its manufacturing facility in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The Company completed the closure of this manufacturing facility on March 31, 2010. Pretax costs associated with the closure could be as high as approximately $60$60 million, which includes restructuring costs and rationalization costs recorded in cost of products sold and selling, general and administrative expenses. Mobile Industries has incurred cumulative pretax expenses of approximately $51.4$52.3 million as of March 31,June 30, 2012 related to this closure. During the first quartersix months of 2012 and 2011,, the Company recorded $2.8$2.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively, of exit costs associated with the closure of this facility.facility primarily related to environmental remediation costs. During the second quarter and first six months of 2011, the Company recorded $4.9 million and $6.0 million, respectively, of exit costs associated with this closure. The exit costs recorded in the second quarter and first quartersix months of 20122011 were primarily related to environmental remediation costs. The exit costs recorded in the first quarter of 2011 primarily related to workers’and workers' compensation claims for former employees. The Company accrues environmental remediation costs and workers’workers' compensation claims when they are probable and estimable.


In addition to the above charges, the Company recorded a favorable adjustment of $2.8$2.7 million during the first six months of 2012 for environmental exit costs at the site of its former plant in Columbus, Ohio. The favorable adjustment was a result of the sale of the real estate at the site of this former plant during the first quarter of 2012.2012. The buyer assumed responsibility for the environmental remediation as a result of the sale. However, theThe buyer was able to obtain funding from the State of Ohio to remediate the site.

The effective tax rate in the firstsecond quarter of 2012 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to losses at certain foreign subsidiaries where no tax benefit could be recorded, including restructuring charges related to the closure of the manufacturing facility in St. Thomas, U.S. state and local taxes, and U.S. taxation of foreign income. These factors were partially offset by the U.S. manufacturing deduction and other U.S. tax benefits.




15



The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2011 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 35% primarily as a result of lower taxes related to non-U.S. earnings and the net impact of other U.S. tax benefits, such as the U.S. research tax credit and U.S. manufacturing deduction, partially offset by U.S. state and local taxes and the net impact of other items.

The increase in the effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011 was primarily due to higher losses at certain foreign subsidiaries where no tax benefit could be recorded, including restructuring charges related to the closure of the manufacturing facility in St. Thomas, lower earnings in certain foreign jurisdictions where the effective tax rate was lower than 35%, and higher U.S. state and local taxes. These factors were partially offset by higher tax benefits from the U.S. manufacturing deduction.
The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2012 was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to U.S. state and local taxes, U.S. taxation of foreign income, and losses at certain foreign subsidiaries where no tax benefit could be recorded, including restructuring charges related to the closure of the manufacturing facility in St. Thomas. These factors were partially offset by earnings in certain foreign jurisdictions where the effective tax rate was less than 35%, the U.S. manufacturing deduction and other U.S. tax benefits.
The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2011 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 35% primarily as a result of lower taxes related to non-U.S. earnings, and the net impact of other U.S. tax benefits, such as the U.S. research tax credit and U.S. manufacturing deduction, partially offset by U.S. state and local taxes U.S. taxationand the net impact of foreign income,other items.

The increase in the effective tax rate in the first six months of 2012 compared to the first six months of 2011 was primarily due to higher losses at certain foreign subsidiaries where no tax benefit could be recorded, and other net discrete income tax expense itemsincluding restructuring charges related to prior tax periods.

The effective tax ratethe closure of the manufacturing facility in the first quarter of 2011 wasSt. Thomas, lower than the U.S. federal statutory tax rate primarily due to the earnings in certain foreign jurisdictions where the effective tax rate was lesslower than 35%, the U.S. manufacturing deduction, the U.S. research tax credit, and other discrete net income tax benefits related to prior tax periods, partially offset byhigher U.S. state and local taxes, losses at certain foreign subsidiaries where nopartially offset by higher tax benefits could be recorded,from the U.S. taxationmanufacturing deduction.

As of foreignJune 30, 2012, the Company had approximately $110.3 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits. Included in this amount was approximately $45.3 million, that represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would favorably impact the Company's effective income tax rate in any future periods if such benefits were recognized. As of June 30, 2012, the Company anticipates a decrease in its unrecognized tax positions of approximately $43.0 million to $44.0 million during the next 12 months. The anticipated decrease is primarily due to settlements with tax authorities. As of June 30, 2012, the Company has accrued approximately $10.2 million of interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.
As of December 31, 2011, the Company had approximately $87.2 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits. Included in this amount was approximately $45.3 million, that represents the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that would favorably impact the Company's effective income tax rate in any future periods if such benefits were recognized. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has accrued approximately $9.0 million of interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company records interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense.

During the first six months of 2012, gross unrecognized tax benefits increased primarily due to net additions related to current year tax matters including the timing of income recognition for certain amounts received by the Company and treated as capital contributions pursuant to Section 118 of the Internal Revenue Code and other miscellaneous items. These increases were partially offset by reductions related to prior year tax matters including taxes related to the Company's international operations, and lapses in statute of limitation on various tax matters.

Note 15 - Fair Value


Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)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 table presents the fair value hierarchy for those financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2012:

Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased and are valued at redemption value. Short-term investments are investments with maturities between four months and one year and are valued at amortized cost. 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 counterparts to its financial instruments.


Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, trade, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable, trade and short-term borrowings are a reasonable estimate of their fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate debt, based on quoted market prices, was $478.7$492.5 million and $480.7$480.7 million at March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The carrying value of this debt was $425.7$427.2 million and $428.9$428.9 million at March 31,June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

Note 16 – Subsequent Event

The U.S. Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA) provides for distributionfair value of monies collected by U.S. Customs from antidumping cases to qualifying domestic producers where the domestic producers have continued to invest in their technology, equipment and people.

In September 2002, the World Trade Organization (WTO) ruled that CDSOA payments are not consistent with international trade rules. In February 2006, U.S. legislationlong-term fixed debt was enacted that ended CDSOA distributions for dumped imports covered by antidumping duty orders entering the United States after September 30, 2007. Instead, any such antidumping duties collected would remain with the U.S. Treasury. Several countries have objected that this U.S. legislation is not consistent with WTO rulings, and were granted retaliation rights by the WTO, typically in the form of increased tariffs on some imported goods from the United States. The European Union and Japan have been retaliating in this fashion against the operation of U.S. law.

In 2006, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) ruled, in two separate decisions, that the procedure for determining recipients eligible to receive CDSOA distributions was unconstitutional. In addition, several other court cases challenging various provisions of CDSOA were ongoing. As a result, from 2006 through 2010 U.S. Customs and Border Protection (U.S. Customs) withheld a portion of the amounts that would otherwise have been distributed under CDSOA.

In February 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed both of the 2006 decisions of the CIT. Later in December 2009, a plaintiff petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to hear a further appeal, but the Supreme Court declined the petition, allowing the appellate court reversals to stand. At that time, several court cases challenging various provisions of the CDSOA were still unresolved, so U.S. Customs accepted the CIT’s recommendation to continue to withhold CDSOA receipts related to 2006 through 2010 until January 2012.

U.S. Customs began distributing the withheld funds to affected domestic producers in early April 2012 and is expected to continue this process until distributions originally withheld from 2006 through 2010 have been completed. In April 2012, the Company received CDSOA distributions of $112.8 million in the aggregate for 2006 through 2010.

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.

Segments


The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment is EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes). As of January 1, 2012, the Company modified the way in which certain selling, general and administrative expenses are allocated among segments to better reflect the use of shared resources by the businesses. Prior year amounts have been revised to be consistent with the new allocations. Refer to Note 10 - Segment Information in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the reconciliation of EBIT by segment to consolidated income before income taxes.


The presentation of segment results below includeincludes a reconciliation of the changes in net sales for each segment reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to net sales adjusted to remove the effects of acquisitions made in 2011 and currency exchange rates. The effects of acquisitions and currency exchange rates on net sales are removed to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage change in net sales on a comparable basis from period to period. During the third quarter of 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Philadelphia Gear.Philadelphia Gear is part of the Process Industries segment.During the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of Drives. Results for Drives are reported in the Mobile and Process Industries segments based on customer application.

The Steel segment’ssegment's net sales for the firstsecond quarter of 2012, excluding the effecteffects of currency-rate changes, increased 11.3%decreased 0.9% compared to the firstsecond quarter of 2011 primarily due to lower volume of approximately $35 million and lower surcharges of approximately $30 million, mostly offset by higher pricing and favorable sales mix of approximately $60 million, partially offset by lower volume of approximately $10 million. The lower volume was primarily driven by an approximately 20%18% decrease in mobileindustrial demand and an approximately 10%4% decrease in industrial demand, partially offset by an approximately 40% increase in oil and gasmobile demand. The decreaseSurcharges decreased to $124.6 million in the mobile and industrial demand was primarily due to customers adjusting inventory levels. Steel shipments for the firstsecond quarter of 2012 were approximately 319,000 tons, compared to 330,000 tons for the first quarter of 2011, a decrease of approximately 3%. The Steel segment’s average selling price was $1,678 per ton for the first quarter of 2012, compared to an average selling price of $1,459 per ton in the first quarter of 2011. The increase in the average selling prices was primarily the result of higher pricing and favorable sales mix. Surcharges were $142.4from $151.9 million in the first quarter of 2012, compared to $138.1 million in the firstsecond quarter of 2011. Surcharges are a pricing mechanism that the Company uses to recover scrap steel, energy and certain alloy costs, which are derived from published monthly indices.

The average scrap index for the second quarter of 2012 was $460 per ton, compared to $488 per ton for the second quarter of 2011. Steel shipments for the second quarter of 2012 were approximately 301,000 tons, compared to approximately 333,000 tons for the second quarter of 2011, a decrease of 9.8%. The Steel segment’ssegment's average selling price, including surcharges, was $1,662 per ton for the second quarter of 2012, compared to an average selling price of $1,516 per ton in the second quarter of 2011. The increase in the average selling prices was primarily the result of higher pricing and favorable sales mix. The lower surcharges were a result of lower market prices for certain input raw materials, especially scrap steel, nickel and molybdenum and lower volume.


The Steel segment's EBIT increased in the firstsecond quarter of 2012 compared to the second quarter of 2011 primarily due to the impact of higher pricing and favorable mix of approximately $45 million and lower raw material costs of approximately $20 million, partially offset by lower surcharges of approximately $30 million and the impact of lower volume of approximately $20 million. The lower raw material costs were driven by lower volume, partially offset by higher material costs per ton. Raw material costs consumed in the manufacturing process, including scrap steel, alloys and energy, for the second quarter of 2012 were comparable with the second quarter of 2011, with an average cost of $563 per ton.

The Steel segment's net sales for the first quartersix months of 2012, excluding the effects of currency-rate changes, increased 5.0% compared to the first six months of 2011 primarily due to higher pricing and favorable sales mix of approximately $120 million, partially offset by lower volume of approximately $45 million and lower surcharges of approximately $25 million. The lower volume was primarily driven by an approximately 13% decrease in industrial demand and an approximately 12% decrease in mobile demand, partially offset by an approximately 20% increase in oil and gas demand. Surcharges decreased to $267.1 million in the first six months of 2012 from $290.0 million in the first six months of 2011. The average scrap index for the first six months of 2012 was $462 per ton, compared to $493 per ton for the first six months of 2011. Steel shipments for the first six months of 2012 were approximately 620,000 tons, compared to approximately 663,000 tons in the first six months 2011, a decrease of 6.6%. The Steel segment's average selling price, including surcharges, was $1,673 per ton for the first six months of 2012, compared to an average selling price of $1,487 per ton in the first six months of 2011. The increase in the average selling prices was primarily the result of higher pricing and favorable sales mix. The lower surcharges were a result of lower market prices for certain input raw materials, especially scrap steel, nickel and molybdenum and lower volume.

The Steel segment's EBIT increased in the first six months of 2012 compared to the first six months of 2011 primarily due to the impact of higher pricing and favorable sales mix of approximately $55$100 million and lower raw material costs of approximately $10 million, partially offset by the impact of lower volume of approximately $10$30 million, lower surcharges of approximately $25 million and higher raw materialsmanufacturing costs of approximately $10 million and expense of approximately $5 million related to the ratification of the new labor agreement.$15 million. The lower raw material costs were driven by lower volume, partially offset by higher material costs per ton. Raw material costs consumed in the manufacturing process, including scrap steel, alloys and energy, increased 28%4.6% in the first quartersix months of 2012 over the comparable period in the prior year to an average cost of $553$568 per ton.

The Company expects


Sales for the Steel segment are expected to see abe flat to down 5% to 10% increase in sales for 2012 compared to 2011 due to higher average selling prices,driven by lower overall demand, partially offset by slightly lower volume. The higher average selling prices are expected to be driven by higher pricing as scrap steel and alloy prices are expected to increase in 2012.favorable sales mix. The Company expects lower demand driven by a 10%an 18% decrease in industrial demand partially offset byand a 14% increase5% decrease in oil and gasmobile demand. The Company expects the Steel segment’ssegment's EBIT to increasebe flat in 2012 compared to 2011 primarily due toas higher average selling prices, partiallypricing and lower raw material costs are offset by the impact of lower volume and higher raw material costs.lower surcharges. Scrap, alloy and energy costs are expected to increase in the near term from current levels as global industrial production improves and then levelslevel off.

The decrease in short-term debt was primarily due to a reduction in the utilization of the Company’sCompany's foreign lines of credit in Asia. The increase in accounts payable was primarily due to higher volume. The decrease in accrued salaries, wages and benefits was the result of the payout of the 2011 performance-based compensation, partially offset by current-year accruals for 2012 performance-based compensation. The increase in income taxes payable was primarily due to the current-year provision for income taxes in the first six months of 2012, partially offset by income tax payments in 2012. The decrease in other current liabilities was primarily due to the payoutfirst six months of customer rebates and the payment of interest on the Company’s $250 million fixed-rate senior unsecured notes.

At March 31,June 30, 2012, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its two-year AccountsAsset Receivable Securitization Financing Agreement (Asset Securitization Agreement), which provides for borrowings up to $150 million, subject to certain borrowing base limitations, and is secured by certain domestic trade receivables of the Company. The Company had full availability under the Asset Securitization Agreement as of March 31,at June 30, 2012.


At March 31,June 30, 2012, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its Senior Credit Facility, but had letters of credit outstanding totaling $17.2 million, which reduced the availability under the Senior Credit Facility to $482.8million. The Senior Credit Facility matures on May 11, 2016. Under the Senior Credit Facility, the Company has two financial covenants: a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio. At March 31,June 30, 2012, 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 3.25 to 1.0. As of March 31,June 30, 2012, the Company’sCompany's consolidated leverage ratio was 0.490.48 to 1.0. The minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio permitted under the Senior Credit Facility is 4.0 to 1.0. As of March 31,June 30, 2012, the Company’sCompany's consolidated interest coverage ratio was 31.2331.38 to 1.0.


The interest rate under the Senior Credit Facility is based on the Company’sCompany's consolidated leverage ratio. 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 this agreement.


Other sources of liquidity include lines of credit for certain of the Company’sCompany's foreign subsidiaries, which provide for borrowings up to $274.0$257.9 million. The majority of these lines are uncommitted. At March 31,June 30, 2012, the Company had borrowings outstanding of $36.8$27.0 million and guarantees of $11.7$3.4 million, which reduced the availability under these facilities to $225.5$227.5 million.


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 Asset Securitization Agreement and the Senior Credit Facility. Management believes it has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations through at least the term of the Senior Credit Facility.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (continued)



At March 31,June 30, 2012, approximately $240.0$228.1 million, or 67.6%44.7%, of the Company’sCompany's cash and cash equivalents resided in jurisdictions outside the United States. Repatriation of these funds to the United States could be subject to government restrictions and domestic and foreign taxes. Part of the Company’sCompany's strategy is to grow in attractive market sectors, many of which are outside the United States. This may include making investments in facilities and 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 when possible.


The Company expects to remain in compliance with its debt covenants. However, the Company may need to limit its borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility or other facilities in order to remain in compliance. As of March 31,June 30, 2012, the Company could have borrowed the full amounts available under the Senior Credit Facility and Asset Securitization Agreement, and would have still been in compliance with its debt covenants.

The Company expects cash from operations in 2012 to improve 167%157% over 2011 as the Company anticipates higher net income, including CDSOA receipts, as well as lower working capital increasesrequirements and a decrease in pension and postretirement contributions. The Company expects to make approximately $375 million in pension and postretirement contributions in 2012, compared to $416 million in 2011. The Company also expects to increase capital expenditures to $335$315 million in 2012 compared to $205 million in 2011, primarily due to the Company’sCompany's investment at its Faircrest steel plant in Canton, Ohio.


Financing Obligations and Other Commitments

Commitments:


During the first threesix months of 2012, the Company made contributions of approximately $96$210 million to its global defined benefit pension plans, of which $93.8$203.8 million was discretionary. The Company currently expects to make contributions to its global defined benefit pension plans in 2012 totaling approximately $275 million, of which $255 million is discretionary. The Company also currently expects to make contributions to a Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association (VEBA) trust to fund retiree healthcare costs totaling $100 million. The Company may consider making additional discretionary contributions to either its defined benefit pension plans or its postretirement benefit plans during 2012. Returns for the Company’sCompany's global defined benefit pension plan assets in 2011 were below the expected rate-of-return assumption of 8.5 percent due to broad decreases in global equity markets. These lower returns negatively impacted the funded status of the plans at the end of 2011 and are expected to result in higher pension expense and required pension contributions in future years. The impact of these unfavorable returns in 2011, as well as the impact of the lower discount rate for expense in 2012 compared to 2011 will increase pension expense to approximately $60 million, compared to $41 million in 2011. Returns for the Company’sCompany's U.S. defined benefit plan pension assets for the first threesix months of 2012 were approximately 7%6.5%.

Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act

Act:


CDSOA provides for distribution of monies collected by U.S. Customs from antidumping cases to qualifying domestic producers where the domestic producers have continued to invest in their technology, equipment and people.


In September 2002, the World Trade Organization (WTO) ruled that CDSOA payments are not consistent with international trade rules. In February 2006, U.S. legislation was enacted that ended CDSOA distributions for dumped imports covered by antidumping duty orders entering the United States after September 30, 2007. Instead, any such antidumping duties collected would remain with the U.S. Treasury. Several countries objected that this U.S. legislation is not consistent with WTO rulings, and were granted retaliation rights by the WTO, typically in the form of increased tariffs on some imported goods from the United States. The European Union and Japan have been retaliating in this fashion against the operation of U.S. law.


In 2006, the U.S. Court of International Trade (CIT) ruled, in two separate decisions, that the procedure for determining recipients eligible to receive CDSOA distributions was unconstitutional. In addition, several other court cases challenging various provisions of CDSOA were ongoing. As a result, from 2006 through 2010 U.S. Customs and Border Protection (U.S. Customs) withheld a portion of the amounts that would otherwise have been distributed under CDSOA.


In February 2009, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit reversed both of the 2006 decisions of the CIT. Later in December 2009, a plaintiff petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to hear a further appeal, but the Supreme Court declined the petition, allowing the appellate court reversals to stand. At that time, several court cases challenging various provisions of the CDSOA were still unresolved, so U.S. Customs accepted the CIT’sCIT's recommendation to continue to withhold CDSOA receipts related to 2006 through 2010 until January 2012.


U.S. Customs began distributing the withheld funds related to 2006 through 2010 to affected domestic producers in early April 2012 and is expected to continue this process until distributions originally withheld from 2006 through 2010 have been completed.

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

Management’s Discussion



Benefit Plans

The Company sponsors a number of defined benefit pension plans that cover eligible associates. The Company also sponsors several funded and Analysisunfunded postretirement plans that provide health care and life insurance benefits for eligible retirees and their dependents. These plans are accounted for in accordance with accounting rules for defined benefit pension plans and postretirement plans.




35



The measurement of Financial Conditionliabilities related to these plans is based on management's assumptions related to future events, including discount rates, rates of return on pension plan assets, rates of compensation increases and Resultshealth care cost trend rates. Management regularly evaluates these assumptions and adjusts them as required and appropriate. Other plan assumptions are also reviewed on a regular basis to reflect recent experience and the Company's future expectations. Actual experience that differs from these assumptions may affect future liquidity, expense and the overall financial position of Operations (continued)

the Company. While the Company believes that current assumptions are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in these assumptions may materially affect the Company's pension and other postretirement employee benefit obligations and its future expense and cash flow.


The discount rate is used to calculate the present value of expected future pension and postretirement cash flows as of the measurement date. The Company establishes the discount rate by constructing a portfolio of high-quality corporate bonds and matching the coupon payments and bond maturities to projected benefit payments under the Company's pension and postretirement welfare plans. The bonds included in the portfolio are generally non-callable. A lower discount rate will result in a higher benefit obligation; conversely, a higher discount rate will result in a lower benefit obligation. The discount rate is also used to calculate the annual interest cost, which is a component of net periodic benefit cost.

The expected rate of return on plan assets is determined by analyzing the historical long-term performance of the Company's pension plan assets, as well as the mix of plan assets between equities, fixed income securities and other investments, the expected long-term rate of return expected for those asset classes and long-term inflation rates. Short-term asset performance can differ significantly from the expected rate of return, especially in volatile markets. A lower-than-expected rate of return on pension plan assets will increase pension expense and future contributions.

Defined Benefit Pension Plans:

In 2012, the Company expects net periodic benefit cost to increase to approximately $60 million for defined benefit pension plans. The expected increase is primarily due to higher amortization of net actuarial losses, partially offset by lower interest cost and higher expected return from plan assets. Amortization of net actuarial losses is expected to increase approximately $26.8 million in 2012 compared to 2011. The majority of the increase in the expected 2012 amortization of actuarial losses is attributable to a 75 basis point reduction in the Company's discount rate used to measure its defined benefit pension obligation from 5.75% at December 31, 2010 to 5.0% at December 31, 2011. In addition, the increase in the expected 2012 amortization of actuarial losses is due to the continued migration of deferred asset losses from 2008 and, to a lesser extent, deferred losses from 2011 into unrecognized losses subject to amortization. The weighted average amortization period for the Company's global defined pension plans is approximately 11 years.

The lower interest cost is primarily due to a 75 basis point reduction in the Company's discount rate from 5.75% for 2011 to 5.00% for 2012. The higher expected return from plan assets for 2012 is due to a higher fair value on pension assets at December 31, 2011, as well as the impact of 2012 contributions, partially offset by the impact of a 25 basis point reduction in the expected return on pension plan assets. The Company expects to contribute approximately $275 million to its defined benefit pension plans in 2012, of which $255 million is discretionary.

During the period between December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2011, the Company recognized net actuarial losses totaling $1,006.3 million for defined benefit pension plans. These actuarial losses primarily occurred in 2008 and 2011, offset slightly by gains in 2009 and 2010. In 2008, the net actuarial loss of $743.5 million for defined benefit pension plans was primarily due to the global financial crisis, which led to broad declines in pension investment returns (a net asset loss of $564.2 million on actual assets in 2008, or negative 22% on pension plan assets of $2.5 billion, compared to an expected return of $200.9 million, or 8.75%, in 2008). The remaining portion of the net actuarial loss for 2008 was due to other changes in actuarial assumptions. In 2011, the net actuarial loss of $404.6 million was primarily due to a 75 basis point reduction in the Company's discount rate used to measure its defined benefit pension obligation. The change in the discount rate accounted for $234.1 million of the net actuarial loss. The remaining portion of the net actuarial loss for 2011 was due to lower than expected asset returns of $100.4 million and other changes in actuarial assumptions of $70.1 million. The impact of these net actuarial losses for defined benefit pension plans, as well as net actuarial losses related to postretirement benefit plans and net prior service costs for defined benefit pension and postretirement plans, has decreased total equity by $455.1 million after-tax for the period between December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2011.

The following table below presents a reconciliation of the cumulative net actuarial losses at December 31, 2007 and the cumulative net actuarial losses at December 31, 2011:

Amortization of net actuarial losses in 2011 (56.0) 
   (173.3)
    
Foreign Currency Impact  (20.3)
    
Net actuarial losses at December 31, 2011  $1,312.8

During this same time period, the Company contributed a total of $605.8 million to its global defined benefit pension plans, of which approximately $536.6 million was discretionary. As discussed above, the Company expects to contribute approximately $275 million to its global defined benefit pension plans in 2012, of which approximately $255 million is discretionary. Despite the net actuarial losses recorded for the period between December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2011, only approximately $20 million of contributions are required in 2012. Long-term, the effect of actuarial losses on future earnings and operating cash flow is expected to be largely neutral as the favorable impact of discretionary pension contributions offsets the increase in pension expense attributable to the amortization of actuarial losses.

For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied a discount rate of 5.75% for the defined benefit pension plans. For expense purposes for 2012, the Company will apply a discount rate of 5.00% for the defined benefit pension plans. For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied an expected rate of return of 8.50% for the Company's pension plan assets. For expense purposes for 2012, the Company will apply an expected rate of return on pension plan assets of 8.25%.

The following table presents the sensitivity of the Company's U.S. projected pension benefit obligation (PBO), total equity and 2012 expense to the indicated increase/decrease in key assumptions:
    + / - Change at December 31, 2012
  Change PBO Equity 2012 Expense
Assumption:        
Discount rate +/- 0.25% $78.1
 $78.1
 $5.0
Actual return on plan assets +/- 0.25%  N/A 5.8
 0.2
Expected return on assets +/- 0.25%  N/A  N/A 6.0

In the table above, a 25 basis point decrease in the discount rate will increase the pension obligation by $78.1 million and decrease total equity by $78.1 million. The change in equity in the table above is reflected on a pre-tax basis. Defined benefit pension plans in the United States represent 87% of the Company's benefit obligation and 88% of the fair value of the Company's plan assets at December 31, 2011. The Company uses a combined U.S. federal and state statutory rate of approximately 37% to calculate the after-tax impact on equity for U.S. plans.  The Company uses the local statutory tax rate in effect to calculate the after-tax impact on equity for all remaining non-U.S. plans.  For some non-U.S. plans, a valuation allowance has been recorded against the tax benefits recorded in equity and, therefore, no tax benefits are recognized on an after-tax basis.


37



Postretirement Benefit Plans:

In 2012, the Company expects net periodic benefit cost to decrease to approximately $24 million for postretirement benefit plans. The expected decrease is primarily due to a higher expected return on plan assets of approximately $7 million for postretirement benefit plans and lower interest cost of approximately $4 million. The higher expected return on plan assets is primarily due to higher VEBA trust assets at December 31, 2011, compared to December 31, 2010, as well as the impact of 2012 contributions. The Company expects to contribute approximately $100 million to its VEBA trust in 2012.

The lower expected interest cost for 2012 is primarily due to a 65 basis point reduction in the Company's discount rate from 5.50% for 2011 to 4.85% for 2012.

For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied a discount rate of 5.50% for the postretirement welfare plans.  For expense purposes for 2012, the Company will apply a discount rate of 4.85% for the postretirement welfare plans. For expense purposes in 2011, the Company applied an expected rate of return of 5.0% to the VEBA trust assets. For expense purposes for 2012, the Company will continue to apply an expected rate of return of 5.0% to the VEBA trust assets.

The following table presents the sensitivity of the Company's accumulated other postretirement benefit obligation (ABO), total equity and 2012 expense to the indicated increase/decrease in key assumptions:
    + / - Change at December 31, 2012
  Change ABO Equity 2012 Expense
Assumption:        
Discount rate +/- 0.25% $12.5
 $12.5
 $0.5
Actual return on plan assets +/- 0.25%  N/A 0.5
 
Expected return on assets +/- 0.25%  N/A  N/A 0.5

In the table above, a 25 basis point decrease in the discount rate will increase the postretirement benefit obligation by $12.5 million and decrease equity by $12.5 million. The change in total equity in the table above is reflected on a pre-tax basis.

For measurement purposes for postretirement benefits, the Company assumed a weighted-average annual rate of increase in per capita cost (health care cost trend rate) for medical benefits of 7.9% for 2012, declining steadily for the next 66 years to 5.0%; and 9.0% for prescription drug benefits for 2012, declining steadily for the next 66 years to 5.0%.  The assumed health care cost trend rate may have a significant effect on the amounts reported.  A one percentage point increase in the assumed health care cost trend rate would have increased the 2011 total service and interest cost components by $0.8 million and would have increased the postretirement obligation by $15.3 million.  A one percentage point decrease would provide corresponding reductions of $0.8 million and $14.2 million, respectively.
