7) STOCK-BASED EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION
At June 30, 2004, the Company has one stock-based employee compensation
plan that is issuing new options and restricted shares. The Company also has two
stock-based employee compensation plans and two stock-based non-employee
directors compensation plans that have options and restricted shares
outstanding, but will not be issuing additional stock-based compensation. These
plans are described more fully in Note 20, "Shareholders' Equity," within the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the 2003 Annual Report on Form
10-K. The Company accounts for these plans under the recognition and measurement
principles of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,"
and related interpretations. Had compensation expense for these plans been
determined based on the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation," the Company's net income and earnings per share would have been

quarter, the Motion & Flow Control segment recognized $0.5 of severance and
employee benefit costs related to actions announced during the first quarter and
the Electronic Components segment recognized $0.2 of outplacement related to
actions announced earlier in 2003.
During the third quarter of 2003 the Company announced actions to reduce
operating costs primarily through the reduction of headcount. The new $2.6
restructuring charge primarily reflects the planned severance of 72 employees.
The actions by segment are as follows:
- The Electronic Components segment recorded $1.2 of the charge for the
planned termination of 40 employees, including 15 factory workers and 25
office workers. The segment also recorded a $0.1 charge associated with
the disposal of machinery and equipment.
- The Fluid Technology segment recognized a $0.5 charge for the planned
severance of 13 factory workers and 14 office workers. Lease and other
costs represent $0.4 of the charge.
- The Motion & Flow Control segment recorded a $0.4 charge for the planned
severance of one management employee and four office workers.
In addition to the restructuring actions announced during the third
quarter, the Motion & Flow Control segment recognized $0.2 of severance and
employee benefit costs related to actions announced during the first quarter.

(IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
During the second quarter of 2003 the Company continued its program to
reduce structural costs and increase profitability. New restructuring actions
totaling $4.7 were announced during the period. The charge primarily reflected
the planned severance of 148 employees and the cancellation of an operating
lease. The actions by segment are as follows:
- The Electronic Components segment comprises $2.7 of the charge and the
actions taken at this segment include the planned termination of six
management employees, 19 factory workers and 71 office workers.
- The Motion & Flow Control segment recognized $1.0 for the planned
severance of 50 employees, including six management employees, 31 factory
workers and 13 office workers. Lease termination fees of $0.7 and asset
disposal costs of $0.1 were also reflected in the charge.
- At Corporate Headquarters, a charge of $0.2 was recorded for the planned
termination of one management employee and one office worker.
In addition to the restructuring actions announced during the second
quarter, the Motion & Flow Control segment recognized $1.2 of severance and
employee benefit costs related to actions announced during the first quarter.
During the first quarter of 2003 the Company recorded a $9.0 restructuring
charge primarily for the planned severance of 465 persons. Severance of $8.3
represents the majority of the charge. The actions by segment are as follows:
- The Electronic Components segment recorded $6.8 of the charge for the
planned termination of 226 persons, comprised of 101 office workers, 116
factory workers and nine management employees. Idle facility costs of
$0.3 and asset disposal costs of $0.4 were also reflected in the charge.
The actions were prompted by management's projections of continued
weakness in certain businesses.
- Corporate Headquarters recorded $1.1 of the charge for the consolidation
of administrative tasks, including the planned termination of two
management employees.
- The Motion & Flow Control segment recorded $0.4 of the charge for the
planned termination of 237 employees, comprised of 21 office workers and
216 factory workers. The charge relates to the closure of a manufacturing
facility in Arkansas. The actions will be completed during 2003 and 2004
and the total estimated charge of approximately $2.6 will be recognized
ratably over the restructuring period as the terminations become
effective. Management deemed the restructuring actions necessary to
address the anticipated loss of certain platforms during the second half
of 2003.
2003 OTHER ASSET IMPAIRMENTS
During 2003, the Company recorded a $1.4 asset impairment charge primarily
for a technology license that will not be utilized based on management's
projections of future market conditions. The applicable assets were written down
to their fair values based on management's comparison of projected future
discounted cash flows generated by each asset to the applicable asset's carrying
value. These impairments were unrelated to the Company's restructuring
activities.

During the second quarter of 2004, $0.1 and $0.2 of restructuring accruals
related to 2003 and 2002 restructuring actions, respectively, were reversed into
income. The reversals related to the 2003 actions primarily reflect lower than
anticipated severance costs on completed actions at the Electronic Components
segment. The reversals related to the 2002 actions represent lower than
anticipated severance costs on completed actions at the Fluid Technology
segment.
During the first quarter of 2004, $0.2 and $0.4 of restructuring accruals
related to 2003 and 2001 restructuring actions, respectively, were reversed into
income. The reversals related to the 2003 actions primarily reflect lower than
anticipated severance costs on completed actions due to favorable employee
attrition at the Electronic Components segment. The reversals associated with
the 2001 actions represent lower than anticipated closed facility costs.
At December 31, 2003, the accrual balance for restructuring activities was
$20.1. Cash payments of $17.8 and additional cash charges of $18.2 were recorded
in the first six months of 2004. The accrual balance related to cash charges at
June 30, 2004 is $19.0, which includes $12.2 for severance and $6.8 for facility
carrying costs and other.
As of December 31, 2003, remaining actions under restructuring activities
announced in 2003, 2002 and 2001 were to close one facility and reduce headcount
by 208. During the first six months of 2004, the Company reduced headcount by
491 persons related to all plans and experienced employee attrition, leaving a
balance of 244 planned reductions. Actions announced during the second quarter
of 2004 will be substantially completed by the end of the first quarter of 2005.
Actions announced during the first quarter of 2004 were substantially completed
by the end of the second quarter of 2004, with 12 headcount reductions
remaining. Actions announced during 2003 will be substantially completed by the
end of 2004. All of the actions contemplated under the 2002 and 2001 plans were
substantially completed in 2003. Closed facility expenditures and severance
run-off related to the 2001 plan will continue to be incurred in 2004.
9) DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
The nature of the Company's business activities necessarily involves the
management of various financial and market risks, including those related to
changes in interest rates, currency exchange rates, and commodity prices. As
discussed more completely in Notes 1, "Accounting Policies", and 18, "Financial
Instruments," within the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the 2003
Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company uses derivative financial instruments to
mitigate or eliminate certain of those risks.

(IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the values of the Company's
interest rate swaps were $64.7 and $81.6, including $3.6 and $4.0 of accrued
interest, respectively.
A reconciliation of current period changes contained in the accumulated
other comprehensive loss component of shareholders' equity is not required as no
material activity occurred during the first six months of 2004 and 2003.
Additional disclosures required by SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended, are presented below.
HEDGES OF FUTURE CASH FLOWS
At June 30, 2004 the Company had eight foreign currency cash flow hedges
outstanding that had declines in value of $0.1 during 2004. At December 31, 2003
the Company had no foreign currency cash flow hedges outstanding. There were no
changes in the forecasted transactions during 2004 regarding their probability
of occurring that would require amounts to be reclassified to earnings.
The notional amount of the foreign currency forward contracts utilized to
hedge cash flow exposures was $14.6 at June 30, 2004. The applicable fair value
of these contracts at June 30, 2004 was $(0.1). There were no ineffective
portions of changes in fair values of cash flow hedge positions reported in
earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, and no amounts were
excluded from the measure of effectiveness reported in earnings during these
periods.
HEDGES OF RECOGNIZED ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND FIRM COMMITMENTS
At June 30, 2004 and December 31, 2003, the Company had foreign currency
forward contracts with notional amounts of $81.2 and $81.1, respectively, to
hedge the value of recognized assets, liabilities and firm commitments. The fair
value of the 2004 and 2003 contracts were $0.2 at both June 30, 2004 and
December 31, 2003. The ineffective portion of changes in fair values of such
hedge positions reported in operating income during the first six months of 2004
and 2003 amounted to $(0.2) and $(0.1), respectively. There were no amounts
excluded from the measure of effectiveness.
The fair values associated with the foreign currency contracts have been
valued using the net position of the contracts and the applicable spot rates and
forward rates as of the reporting date.
10) GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which requires that
goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested for impairment on an
annual basis, or more frequently if circumstances warrant. Annual goodwill
impairment tests were completed in the first quarters of 2004 and 2003 (as of
the beginning of the year) and it was determined that no impairment exists.
Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June
30, 2004, by business segment, are as follows:

amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years is $5.4 per year.
11) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In September of 1998, the Company completed the sales of its automotive
Electrical Systems business to Valeo SA for approximately $1,700 and its Brake
and Chassis unit to Continental AG of Germany for approximately $1,930. These
dispositions were treated as discontinued operations. In 1998, the Company
received notifications of claims from the buyers of the automotive business
requesting post-closing adjustments to the purchase prices under the provisions
of the sales agreements. In 1999, those claims were submitted to arbitration. In
2001 and early in 2002, both claims were favorably resolved.
At June 30, 2004, the Company had automotive discontinued operations
accruals of $186.0 that are primarily related to taxes ($154.1), product recalls
($7.8), environmental obligations ($14.2) and employee benefits ($9.9). In 2004,
the Company made immaterial payments of its automotive discontinued operations
liabilities. The Company expects that it will cash settle $154.1 of tax
obligations in 2004 or 2005.

of the operation of the asset smoothing method reflecting adverse financial
experience in 2002 and 2001 and a higher amortization of actuarial losses.
The Company contributed approximately $4.7 to its various plans during the
second quarter of 2004 and $106.3 for the first six months of 2004. Additional
contributions totaling between $15.0 and $20.0 are expected over the balance of

expected benefit payments during 2003.
13) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company and its subsidiaries from time to time are involved in legal
proceedings that are incidental to the operation of their businesses. Some of
these proceedings allege damages against the Company relating to environmental
liabilities, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal
injury claims, employment and pension matters, government contract issues and
commercial or contractual disputes, sometimes related to acquisitions or
divestitures. The Company will continue to vigorously defend itself against all
claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted
with certainty, based on present information including the Company's assessment
of the merits of the particular claim, as well as its current reserves and
insurance coverage, the Company does not expect that such legal proceedings will
have any material adverse impact on the cash flow, results of operations, or
financial condition of the Company on a consolidated basis in the foreseeable
future.
ENVIRONMENTAL
The Company has accrued for environmental remediation costs associated with
identified sites consistent with the policy set forth in Note 1, "Accounting
Policies" in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the 2003 Annual
Report on Form 10-K. In management's opinion, the total amount accrued and
related receivables are appropriate based on existing facts and circumstances.
It is difficult to estimate the total costs of investigation and remediation due
to various factors, including incomplete information regarding particular sites
and other potentially responsible parties, uncertainty regarding the extent of
contamination and the Company's share, if any, of liability for such conditions,
the selection of alternative remedies, and changes in clean-up standards. In the
event that future remediation expenditures are in excess of amounts accrued,
management does not anticipate that they will have a material adverse effect on
the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
16
ITT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
(IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
In the ordinary course of business, and similar to other industrial
companies, the Company is subject to extensive and changing federal, state,
local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations. The Company has received
notice that it is considered a potentially responsible party ("PRP") at a
limited number of sites by the United States Environmental Protection Agency
("EPA") and/or a similar state agency under the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA" or "Superfund") or its state
equivalent. As of June 30, 2004, the Company is responsible, or is alleged to be
responsible, for 104 environmental investigation and remediation sites in
various countries. In many of these proceedings, the Company's liability is
considered de minimis. At June 30, 2004, the Company calculated a best estimate
of $101.6, which approximates its accrual, related to the cleanup of soil and
ground water. The low range estimate for its environmental liabilities is $77.2
and the high range estimate for those liabilities is $165.1. On an annual basis
the Company spends between $8.0 and $11.0 on its environmental remediation
liabilities. These estimates, and related accruals, are reviewed periodically
and updated for progress of remediation efforts and changes in facts and legal
circumstances. Liabilities for environmental expenditures are recorded on an
undiscounted basis.
The Company is involved in an environmental proceeding in Glendale,
California relating to the San Fernando Valley aquifer. The Company is one of
numerous PRPs who are alleged by the EPA to have contributed to the
contamination of the aquifer. In January 1999, the EPA filed a complaint in the
United States District Court for the Central District of California against the
Company and Lockheed Martin Corporation, United States v. ITT Industries, Inc.
and Lockheed Martin Corp. CV99-00552 SVW AIJX, to recover costs it incurred in
connection with the foregoing. In May 1999, the EPA and the PRPs, including the
Company and Lockheed Martin, reached a settlement, embodied in a consent decree,
requiring the PRPs to perform additional remedial activities. Pursuant to the
settlement, the PRPs, including the Company, have constructed and are operating
a water treatment system. The operation of the water treatment system is
expected to continue until 2013. ITT and the other PRPs continue to pay their
respective allocated costs of the operation of the water treatment system and
the Company does not anticipate a default by any of the PRPs which would
increase its allocated share of the liability. As of June 30, 2004, the
Company's accrual for this liability was $10.4 representing its best estimate;
its low estimate for the liability is $7.0 and its high estimate is $15.9.
ITT Corporation operated a facility in Madison County, Florida from 1968
until 1991. In 1995, elevated levels of contaminants were detected at the site.
Since then, ITT has completed the investigation of the site in coordination with
state and federal environmental authorities and is in the process of evaluating
various remedies. A remedy for the site has not yet been selected. Currently,
the estimated range for the remediation is between $5.8 and $19.7. The Company
has accrued $8.3 for this matter, which approximates its best estimate.
The Company is involved with a number of PRPs regarding property in the
City of Bronson, Michigan operated by a former subsidiary of ITT Corporation,
Higbie Manufacturing, prior to the time ITT acquired Higbie. The Company and
other PRPs are investigating and remediating discharges of industrial waste
which occurred in the 1930's. The Company's current estimates for its exposure
are between $6.2 and $13.9. It has an accrual for this matter of $9.5 which
represents its best estimate of its current liabilities. The Company does not
anticipate a default on the part of the other PRPs.
In a suit filed in 1991 by the Company, in the California Superior Court,
Los Angeles County, ITT Corporation, et al. v. Pacific Indemnity Corporation et
al., against its insurers, the Company is seeking recovery of costs it incurred
in connection with its environmental liabilities including the three listed
above. Discovery, procedural matters, changes in California law, and various
appeals have prolonged this case. Currently, the matter is before the California
Court of Appeals from a decision by the California Superior Court dismissing
certain claims of the Company. The dismissed claims were claims where the costs
incurred
17
ITT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
(IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
were solely due to administrative (versus judicial) actions. A hearing is
expected in 2004. In the event the appeal is successful, the Company will pursue
the administrative claims against its excess insurers. During the course of the
litigation the Company has negotiated settlements with certain defendant
insurance companies and is prepared to pursue its legal remedies where
reasonable negotiations are not productive. A portion of the recoveries from the
insurance settlements have been placed in a trust and are used to reimburse the
Company for its environmental costs.
PRODUCT LIABILITY
The Company and its subsidiary Goulds Pumps, Inc. ("Goulds") have been
joined as defendants with numerous other industrial companies in product
liability lawsuits alleging injury due to asbestos. These actions against the
Company have been managed by our historic product liability insurance carriers.
These claims stem primarily from products sold prior to 1985 that contained a
part manufactured by a third party, e.g., a gasket, which allegedly contained
asbestos. The asbestos was encapsulated in the gasket (or other) material and
was non-friable. In certain other cases, it is alleged that former ITT companies
were distributors for other manufacturers' products that may have contained
asbestos.
Frequently, the plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate any injury or do not
identify any ITT or Goulds product as a source of asbestos exposure. During
2003, ITT and Goulds resolved approximately 2,000 claims through settlement or
dismissal. The average amount of settlement per plaintiff has been nominal and
substantially all defense and settlement costs have been covered by insurance.
Based upon past claims experience, available insurance coverage, and after
consultation with counsel, management believes that these matters will not have
a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,
results of operations, or cash flows.
The Company is involved in two actions, Cannon Electric, Inc. et al. v. Ace
Property & Casualty Company et al. Superior Court, County of Los Angeles, CA.,
Case No. BC 290354, and Pacific Employers Insurance Company et al., v. ITT
Industries, Inc., et al., Supreme Court, County of New York, N.Y., Case No.
03600463. The parties in both cases are seeking an appropriate allocation of
responsibility for the Company's historic asbestos liability exposure among its
insurers. The California action is filed in the same venue where the Company's
environmental insurance recovery litigation has been pending since 1991. Both
actions have been stayed to allow the parties to negotiate an acceptable
allocation arrangement. In April 2004, the Company and Ace Property & Casualty
Company entered into an agreement resolving both cases as they relate to Ace
Property & Casualty Company. The Company will pursue similar agreements with
several of its other insurers. In addition, Utica National, Goulds' historic
insurer, filed an action in Oneida County, New York, Utica Mutual Insurance Co.
Goulds Pumps, Inc., Case No. 00272103, to allocate the Goulds asbestos
liabilities between insurance policies issued by Utica and those issued by
others. The parties are currently considering a settlement agreement similar to
the Ace agreement. The Company is continuing to receive the benefit of insurance
payments during the pendency of these proceedings. The Company believes that
these actions will not materially affect the availability of its insurance
coverage and will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company is one of several defendants in a suit filed in El Paso, Texas,
Bund zur Unterstutzung Radargeschadigter et al. v. ITT Industries et al., Sup.
Ct., El Paso, Texas, C.A. No. 2002-4730. This Complaint, filed by both U.S. and
German citizens, alleges that ITT and four other major companies failed to warn
the plaintiffs of the dangers associated with exposure to x-ray radiation from
radar devices. The Complaint also seeks the certification of a class of
similarly injured persons. The Company's aviation insurers are contributing to
the defense of this matter. Management believes that this matter will not have a
material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
18
ITT INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
(IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
The Company is involved in a product liability suit filed in Superior Court
of New York, Danis v. Rule Industries et al., Sup. Ct. N.Y., C.A. No. 115975-02,
seeking damages for injuries sustained in a boat explosion. The suit contains a
number of causes of action against various defendants including the boat
manufacturer, the marina operator, and individuals working at the marina. As to
the Company, the Complaint alleges that a fume detector, manufactured by ITT's
subsidiary Rule Industries, Inc. prior to the date the Company acquired Rule,
malfunctioned. The Company's insurer is on notice of this matter. Management
believes that this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company has received demands from U.S. Silica for partial indemnity
regarding personal injury actions alleging injury due to silica. In 1985, the
Company sold the stock of its subsidiary Pennsylvania Glass Sand to U.S. Silica.
As part of that transaction, the Company provided an indemnity to U.S. Silica
for silica personal injury suits. That indemnity expires in September 2005.
Costs incurred in these matters related to the defense, settlements or judicial
awards are allocated between U.S. Silica and the Company. The Company's
allocated portion is paid in part by its historic product liability carriers and
then shared pursuant to the Distribution Agreement. See "Company History and
Certain Relationships" within Part 1, Item 1 of the 2003 Annual Report on Form
10-K for a description of the Distribution Agreement. Management believes that
these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
OTHER
The Company has received a Notice of Claim from Rayonier, Inc., a former
subsidiary of the Company's predecessor ITT Corporation. This claim stems from
the 1994 Distribution Agreement for the spinoff of Rayonier by ITT Corporation
and seeks an allocation of proceeds from certain settlements in connection with
the Company's environmental insurance recovery litigation. The parties are
seeking a resolution of this matter through arbitration. The Company believes
the claim is grossly overstated and will not have a material adverse effect on
the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
14) GUARANTEES, INDEMNITIES AND WARRANTIES
GUARANTEES & INDEMNITIES
In September of 1998, the Company completed the sale of its automotive
electrical systems business to Valeo SA for approximately $1,700. As part of the
sale, the Company provided Valeo SA with representations and warranties with
respect to the operations of the Business, including: Conveyance of Title,
Employee Benefits, Tax, Product Liability, Product Recall, Contracts,
Environmental, Intellectual Property, etc. The Company also indemnified Valeo SA
for losses related to a misrepresentation or breach of the representations and
warranties. With a few limited exceptions, the indemnity periods within which
Valeo SA may assert new claims have expired. Under the terms of the sales
contract, the original maximum potential liability to Valeo SA on an
undiscounted basis is $680. However, because of the lapse of time, or the fact
that the parties have resolved certain issues, at June 30, 2004 the Company has
an accrual of $7.8 which is its best estimate of the potential exposure.
In September of 1998, the Company completed the sale of its brake and
chassis unit to Continental AG for approximately $1,930. As part of the sale,
the Company provided Continental AG with representations and warranties with
respect to the operations of that Business, including: Conveyance of Title,
Employee Benefits, Tax, Product Liability, Product Recall, Contracts,
Environmental, Intellectual Property, etc. The Company also indemnified
Continental AG for losses related to a misrepresentation or breach of the
representations and warranties. With a few limited exceptions, the indemnity
periods within which Continental AG may assert new claims have expired. Under
the terms of the sales contract, the original maximum potential liability to

(IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)
Continental AG on an undiscounted basis is $950. However, because of the lapse
of time, or the fact that the parties have resolved certain issues, at June 30,
2004 the Company has an accrual of $14.2 which is its best estimate of the
potential exposure.
Since its incorporation in 1920, the Company has acquired and disposed of
numerous entities. The related acquisition and disposition agreements contain
various representation and warranty clauses and may provide indemnities for a
misrepresentation or breach of the representations and warranties by either
party. The indemnities address a variety of subjects; the term and monetary
amounts of each such indemnity are defined in the specific agreements and may be
affected by various conditions and external factors. Many of the indemnities
have expired either by operation of law or as a result of the terms of the
agreement. The Company does not have a liability recorded for the historic
indemnifications and is not aware of any claims or other information that would
give rise to material payments under such indemnities. The Company has
separately discussed material indemnities provided within the last eight years.
The Company provided three guarantees with respect to its real estate
development activities in Flagler County, Florida. Two of these guarantee bonds
were issued by the Dunes Community Development District (the District). The bond
issuances were used primarily for the construction of infrastructure, such as
water and sewage utilities and a bridge. The Company would be required to
perform under these guarantees if the District failed to provide interest
payments or principal payments due to the bond holders. The maximum amount of
the undiscounted future payments on these guarantees equal $28.9. At June 30,
2004, the Company does not believe that a loss contingency is probable for these
guarantees and therefore does not have an accrual recorded in its financial
statements. The third guaranty is a performance bond in the amount of $10.0 in
favor of Flagler County, Florida. The Company would be required to perform under
this guarantee if certain parties did not satisfy all aspects of the development
order, the most significant aspect being the expansion of a bridge. The maximum
amount of the undiscounted future payments on the third guarantee equals $10.0.
At June 30, 2004, the Company has an accrual related to the expansion of a
bridge in the amount of $10.0.
In December of 2002, the Company entered into a sales-type lease agreement
for its corporate aircraft and then leased the aircraft back under an operating
lease agreement. The Company has provided, under the agreement, a residual value
guarantee to the counterparty in the amount of $44.8, which is the maximum
amount of undiscounted future payments. The Company would have to make payments
under the residual value guarantee only if the fair value of the aircraft was
less than the residual value guarantee upon termination of the agreement. At
June 30, 2004, the Company does not believe that a loss contingency is probable
and therefore does not have an accrual recorded in its financial statements.
PRODUCT WARRANTIES
Accruals for estimated expenses related to warranties are made at the time
products are sold or services are rendered. These accruals are established using
historical information on the nature, frequency, and average cost of warranty
claims. The Company warrants numerous products, the terms of which vary widely.
In general, the Company warrants its products against defect and specific
nonperformance. In the automotive businesses, liability for product defects
could extend beyond the selling price of the product and could be significant if
the defect shuts down production or results in a recall. At June 30, 2004, the
Company has a product warranty accrual in the amount of $34.5.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
THREE MONTHS
The Company produced strong operating performance in the second quarter of
2004. Revenues grew 14.9% from the comparable prior year quarter. Acquisitions
and foreign currency contributed 4.8% of the growth and the remaining 10.1% of
the increase was attributable to higher volume in all segments. We believe these
results reflect the strength of the Company's portfolio of businesses and the
introduction of new products.
Operating income in the second quarter of 2004 was 9.5% higher than the
second quarter of 2003. The increase was led by the Defense Electronics &
Services segment, which was up 19.5%, and reflects higher volume at all of the
operating segments.
Diluted earnings per share were $1.18 for the second quarter and include
the impact of favorable tax rulings of $0.12, restructuring of $(0.10) and a
$(0.01) loss from discontinued operations. Diluted earnings per share for the
comparable prior year quarter were $1.06 and include the impact of restructuring
of $(0.04) and discontinued operations of $0.08.
SIX MONTHS
The Company's revenues grew 15.9% from the comparable prior year.
Acquisitions and foreign currency contributed 5.7% of the growth and the
remaining 10.2% of the increase was attributable to higher volume in all
segments. These results reflect the strength of the Company's portfolio of
businesses and the introduction of new products. Based on these results and
current/projected market conditions, the Company projects full year 2004 revenue
between $6,450 million and $6,600 million.
Operating income in the first half of 2004 was 13.0% higher than the first
half of 2003. The increase reflects higher volume, partially offset by
acquisition integration and start up costs primarily attributable to the
acquisition of WEDECO AG Water Technology. Management projects full year 2004
segment operating margin to be between 11.1% and 11.5%.
Diluted earnings per share were $2.13 for the first six months and include
the impact of favorable tax settlements/rulings of $0.18 and restructuring of
$(0.14). Diluted earnings per share for the comparable prior year period were
$1.98 and include the impact of favorable tax settlements and related interest
of $0.17, restructuring of $(0.12) and the impact of discontinued operations of
$0.08. Full year 2004 diluted earnings per share are projected to be between
$4.40 and $4.50.
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30,
2003
Sales and revenues for the second quarter of 2004 were $1,652.5 million, an
increase of $214.3 million, or 14.9%, from the same period in 2003. Costs of
sales and revenues of $1,079.0 million for the second quarter of 2004 increased
$129.4 million, or 13.6%, from the comparable 2003 period. The increases in
sales and revenues and costs of sales and revenues are primarily attributable to
higher volume in all segments, contributions from acquisitions made by the Fluid
Technology segment and the impact of foreign currency translation.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the second
quarter of 2004 were $237.6 million, an increase of $39.0 million, or 19.6%,
from the second quarter of 2003. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due
to increased marketing expense in all segments, including expenses from two
first quarter acquisitions, higher general and administrative expenses and other
operating expenses. Higher general and administrative costs reflect additional
employee benefit costs, the cost of process improvement initiatives, and
increased other administrative expenses.
24
Research, development and engineering ("RD&E") expenses for the second
quarter of 2004 increased $24.1 million, or 16.9%, compared to the second
quarter of 2003. The increase is attributable to increased spending in all
segments.
During the second quarter of 2004, the Company recorded a $14.6 million
restructuring charge to streamline its operating structure. The charge primarily
reflected the planned reduction of 430 persons, the closure of two facilities
and lease cancellation costs. Additionally, $0.3 million of restructuring
accruals related to 2003 and 2002 restructuring actions were reversed into
income, as management determined that certain cash expenditures would not be
incurred. During the second quarter of 2003, the Company recorded a $5.9 million
restructuring charge to reduce operating costs. The charge primarily reflected
the planned reduction of 148 persons. Refer to the section entitled "Status of
Restructuring and Asset Impairments" and Note 8, "Restructuring and Asset
Impairment Charges," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
for additional information.
Operating income for the second quarter of 2004 was $154.9 million, an
increase of $13.4 million, or 9.5%, over the second quarter of 2003. The
increase is primarily due to improved sales and revenues at each of the segments
offset by increased SG&A and RD&E expenses. Segment operating margin for the
second quarter of 2004 was 10.7%, which was 0.4% below the segment operating
margin for the comparable 2003 period. The decrease reflects the impact of Fluid
Technology acquisitions, which produced operating margins below the segment
average and changes in sales mix between segments, partially offset by higher
operating margins in the Motion & Flow Control segment, Defense Electronics &
Services segment and the Electronic Components segment.
Interest expense was $5.4 million (net of interest income of $0.7 million).
This was flat with the comparable 2003 period.
Income tax expense was $33.7 million in the second quarter of 2004, a
decrease of $7.8 million with the comparable prior year period. The decrease is
primarily attributable to the impact of a favorable tax ruling.
Income from continuing operations was $112.7 million, or $1.19 per diluted
share compared to $92.1 million or $0.98 per diluted share for the second
quarter of 2003. The increase reflects the results discussed above.
During the second quarter of 2004, the Company recognized $0.7 million of
employee benefit costs (net of tax effect) attributable to discontinued
operations. During the second quarter of 2003, the Company recognized $7.8
million of income from discontinued operations. The income relates to the
collection of a disputed receivable related to the Company's automotive
businesses and the receipt of a tax refund also pertaining to the Company's
discontinued businesses. Upon collection, the Company reversed the related
valuation allowances, which had been previously established for both assets,
resulting in the above mentioned income.
Fluid Technology's sales and revenues and costs of sales and revenues
increased $80.3 million, or 14.1%, and $51.1 million, or 13.5%, respectively, in
the second quarter of 2004 compared to the second quarter of 2003. Higher
organic sales in the water/wastewater markets and industrial products
businesses, acquisition revenue from the water treatment business and the impact
of foreign currency translation were the primary factors for the increases.
These items were partially offset by lower sales in the engineered process
solutions business. SG&A expenses for the second quarter of 2004 increased $21.9
million, or 20.7%, compared to 2003, mainly due to increased advertising costs,
sales commissions and administrative costs in most businesses, and costs
attributable to 2004 acquisitions. During the second quarter of 2004, the
segment recorded a $3.4 million restructuring charge mainly related to a planned
reduction in headcount and the closure of two facilities (refer to the section
entitled "Status of Restructuring and Asset Impairments" and Note 8,
"Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges," in the Notes to Consolidated
Condensed Financial Statements for additional information). Operating income for
the second quarter of 2004 increased $1.6 million, or 2.2%, compared to the
second quarter of 2003, due to the activities discussed above.
Defense Electronics & Services' sales and revenues and costs of sales and
revenues for the second quarter of 2004 increased $78.3 million, or 17.3%, and
$43.1 million, or 15.8%, respectively, from the comparable prior
25
year period. The increases are primarily due to higher volume in the night
vision, advanced engineering systems and radar businesses. SG&A expenses
increased $6.7 million, or 31.5%, primarily due to increased employee benefit
and administrative costs and other operating expenses. RD&E expenses increased
$19.4 million, or 17.3%, due to increased spending in all businesses. Operating
income for the second quarter of 2004 was $55.8 million, an increase of $9.1
million, or 19.5%, compared to the same quarter in 2003. The increase reflects
the results discussed above.
Motion & Flow Control recorded sales and revenues and costs of sales and
revenues of $281.3 million and $201.4 million, respectively, during the second
quarter of 2004, reflecting increases of $18.6 million, or 7.1%, and $11.3
million, or 5.9%, from the second quarter of 2003. The increases were mainly due
to higher volume in the friction materials and leisure marine businesses and the
impact of foreign currency translation, partially offset by scheduled platform
rolloffs in the fluid handling business. SG&A expenses increased $2.4 million,
or 10.4%, reflecting higher marketing costs and administrative expenses in most
businesses. During the second quarters of 2004 and 2003, the segment recorded
$2.4 million and $3.0 million of restructuring charges, respectively, mainly
related to planned reductions in headcount (refer to the section entitled
"Status of Restructuring and Asset Impairments" and Note 8, "Restructuring and
Asset Impairment Charges," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements for additional information). Operating income of $41.3 million was
$4.2 million, or 11.3%, higher in the second quarter of 2004, compared to the
second quarter of 2003, primarily due to the items mentioned above.
Electronic Components' sales and revenues of $191.4 million and costs of
sales and revenues of $135.2 million in the second quarter of 2004, increased
$37.7 million, or 24.5%, and $24.8 million, or 22.5%, respectively, from the
comparable prior year period. The increases reflect higher volume in all
businesses and the impact of foreign currency translation. SG&A expenses
increased $6.2 million due to increased marketing, employee benefit and
administrative expenses. During the second quarter of 2004, the segment recorded
a $7.2 million restructuring charge primarily relating to planned headcount
reductions and lease cancellation costs (refer to the section entitled "Status
of Restructuring and Asset Impairments" and Note 8, "Restructuring and Asset
Impairment Charges," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
for additional information). Operating income for the second quarter of 2004
increased $1.4 million from the second quarter of 2003. The increase was due to
the factors discussed above.
Corporate expenses increased $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2004,
primarily due to higher restructuring costs, ($1.6 million in 2004 versus $0.2
million in 2003), (refer to the section entitled "Status of Restructuring and
Asset Impairments" and Note 8, "Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges," in
the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional
information) and increased other operating expenses.
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2004 COMPARED WITH SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2003
Sales and revenues for the first six months of 2004 were $3,168.4 million,
an increase of $433.8 million, or 15.9%, from the same period in 2003. Costs of
sales and revenues of $2,086.1 million for the first six months of 2004
increased $290.1 million, or 16.2%, from the comparable 2003 period. The
increases in sales and revenues and costs of sales and revenues are primarily
attributable to higher volume in all segments, contributions from acquisitions
made by the Fluid Technology segment and the impact of foreign currency
translation.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the first six
months of 2004 were $467.8 million, an increase of $68.9 million, or 17.3%, from
the first six months of 2003. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to
increased marketing expense in all segments, including expenses from two first
quarter acquisitions, higher general and administrative expenses and other
operating expenses. Higher general and administrative costs reflect additional
employee benefit costs, the cost of process improvement initiatives,
administrative expenses related to the two first quarter acquisitions and
increased other administrative expenses.
26
Research, development and engineering ("RD&E") expenses for the first six
months of 2004 increased $39.4 million, or 14.5%, compared to the first six
months of 2003. The increase is attributable to increased spending in all
segments.
During the first six months of 2004, the Company recorded a $19.9 million
restructuring charge to streamline its operating structure. The charge primarily
reflected the planned reduction of 533 persons, the closure of two facilities
and lease cancellation costs. Additionally, $0.9 million of restructuring
accruals related to 2003, 2002 and 2001 restructuring actions were reversed into
income, as management determined that certain cash expenditures would not be
incurred. During the first six months of 2003, the Company recorded a $14.9
million restructuring charge to reduce operating costs. The charge primarily
reflected the planned reduction of 613 persons. Additionally, in 2003, the
Company recorded an asset impairment charge of $1.4 million primarily to
write-off a technology license that will not be utilized in the foreseeable
future due to projected market conditions. Refer to the section entitled "Status
of Restructuring and Asset Impairments" and Note 8, "Restructuring and Asset
Impairment Charges," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
for additional information.
Operating income for the first six months of 2004 was $283.9. million, an
increase of $32.7 million, or 13.0%, over the first six months of 2003. The
increase is primarily due to improved sales and revenues at each of the segments
offset by increased SG&A and RD&E expenses. Segment operating margin for the
first six months of 2004 was 10.2%, which was 0.4% below the segment operating
margin for the comparable 2003 period. The decrease reflects the impact of Fluid
Technology acquisitions, which produced operating margins below the segment
average and changes in sales mix between segments, partially offset by higher
operating margins in the Defense Electronics & Services segment and the
Electronic Components segment.
Interest expense was $6.5 million (net of interest income of $6.0 million,
of which $4.3 million relates to a first quarter 2004 tax settlement) for the
first six months of 2004. The Company recognized $9.3 million of interest income
during the first six months of 2003. The variance between years is primarily due
to interest income of $22.1 million, related to a 2003 first quarter tax refund,
partially offset by lower average debt balances in 2004.
Income tax expense was $69.9 million in the first six months of 2004, a
decrease of $9.0 million from the comparable prior year period. The decrease is
primarily attributable to the impact of a favorable tax ruling.
Income from continuing operations was $200.8 million, or $2.13 per diluted
share in the first six months of 2004, compared to $178.8 million or $1.90 per
diluted share for the first six months of 2003. The increase reflects the
results discussed above.
During the first half of 2003, the Company recognized $7.8 million of
income from discontinued operations. The income related to the collection of a
disputed receivable related to the Company's automotive businesses and the
receipt of a tax refund also pertaining to the Company's discontinued
businesses. Upon collection, the Company reversed the related valuation
allowances, which had been previously established for both assets, resulting in
the above mentioned income.
Fluid Technology's sales and revenues and costs of sales and revenues
increased $151.6 million, or 14.1%, and $98.1 million, or 13.8%, respectively,
in the first six months of 2004 compared to the first six months of 2003. Higher
organic sales in the water/wastewater markets and industrial products
businesses, acquisition revenue from the water treatment business and the impact
of foreign currency translation were the primary factors for the increases.
These items were partially offset by lower volume in the engineered process
solutions business. SG&A expenses for the first six months of 2004 increased
$44.5 million, or 21.5%, compared to 2003, mainly due to increased advertising
costs, sales commissions and administrative costs in most businesses, and costs
attributable to 2004 acquisitions. During the first six months of 2004, the
segment recorded a $6.6 million restructuring charge mainly related to a planned
reduction in headcount and the closure of two facilities (refer to the section
entitled "Status of Restructuring and Asset Impairments" and Note 8,
"Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges," in the Notes to Consolidated
Condensed Financial Statements for additional information). Operating income for
the first six months of 2004 was down $1.8 million, or 1.4%, compared to the
first six months of 2003, due to the activities discussed above.
27
Defense Electronics & Services' sales and revenues and costs of sales and
revenues for the first six months of 2004 increased $193.4 million, or 22.9%,
and $128.7 million, or 25.7%, respectively, from the comparable prior year
period. The increases are primarily due to higher volume in all businesses.
Additionally, a change in product mix also contributed to the increase in costs
of sales and revenues. SG&A expenses increased $12.0 million, or 24.6%, from the
comparable prior year period, primarily due to increased employee benefit and
administrative costs and other operating expenses. RD&E expenses increased $29.3
million, or 13.7%, from the comparable prior year period, due to increased
spending in all businesses. Operating income for the first six months of 2004
was $104.5 million, an increase of $23.4 million, or 28.9%, compared to the same
period in 2003. The increase reflects the results discussed above.
Motion & Flow Control recorded sales and revenues and costs of sales and
revenues of $555.3 million and $400.0 million, respectively, during the first
six months of 2004, reflecting increases of $34.5 million, or 6.6%, and $22.1
million, or 5.8%, from the first six months of 2003. The increases were mainly
due to higher volume in the friction and leisure marine businesses and the
impact of foreign currency translation, partially offset by scheduled platform
rolloffs in the fluid handling business. SG&A expenses increased $4.9 million,
or 10.6%, from the comparable prior year period, reflecting higher marketing
costs and administrative expenses in most businesses and other operating
expenses. During the first six months of 2004 and 2003, the segment recorded
$2.6 million and $3.4 million of restructuring charges, respectively, mainly
related to planned reductions in headcount (refer to the section entitled
"Status of Restructuring and Asset Impairments" and Note 8, "Restructuring and
Asset Impairment Charges," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements for additional information). Operating income of $80.4 million was
$5.3 million, or 7.1%, higher in the first six months of 2004, compared to the
first six months of 2003, primarily due to the items mentioned above.
Electronic Components' sales and revenues of $353.2 million and costs of
sales and revenues of $247.7 million in the first six months of 2004, increased
$54.7 million, or 18.3%, and $39.3 million, or 18.9%, respectively, from the
comparable prior year period. The increases reflect higher volume in most
businesses and the impact of foreign currency translation. SG&A expenses
increased $9.0 million, or 15.0%, from the comparable prior year period, due to
increased marketing, employee benefit and administrative expenses. During the
first six months of 2004, the segment recorded a $8.9 million restructuring
charge primarily relating to planned headcount reductions and lease cancellation
costs. During the first six months of 2003, the segment recorded a $10.2 million
restructuring charge primarily relating to planned headcount reductions and a
$1.4 million asset impairment charge mainly to write-off a license agreement for
technology, which will not be utilized in the foreseeable future due to
projected market conditions (refer to the section entitled "Status of
Restructuring and Asset Impairments" and Note 8, "Restructuring and Asset
Impairment Charges," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
for additional information). Operating income for the first six months of 2004
increased $7.1 million from the first six months of 2003. The increase was due
to the factors discussed above.
Corporate expenses increased $1.3 million in the first six months of 2004,
primarily due to higher restructuring costs, ($1.8 million in 2004 versus $1.3
million in 2003), (refer to the section entitled "Status of Restructuring and
Asset Impairments" and Note 8, "Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges," in
the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for additional
information) and higher other operating expenses.

During the first half of 2004, $0.3 million of restructuring accruals
related to 2003 restructuring actions were reversed into income. The reversals
primarily reflect lower than anticipated severance costs on completed actions
due to favorable employee attrition at the Electronic Components segment.
During the second half of 2003, $3.5 million of restructuring accruals
related to current year programs were reversed into income as a result of
quarterly reviews of the Company's remaining restructuring actions. The
reversals primarily reflect lower than anticipated severance costs on completed
actions due to favorable employee attrition at the Electronic Components
segment. Additionally, certain actions were not completed as they were no longer
deemed feasible. The Company also reversed other non-cash charges totaling $0.2
million.
During the first half of 2004 headcount was reduced by 124 persons and the
Company experienced employee attrition, leaving a balance of 65 planned
reductions related to the 2003 restructuring plans. In addition, one facility
remains to be closed related to the 2003 restructuring plans. Actions announced
during 2003 will be substantially completed by the end of 2004.
2003 OTHER ASSET IMPAIRMENTS
During 2003, the Company recorded a $1.4 million asset impairment charge
primarily for the write-off of a technology license that will not be utilized
based on management's projections of future market conditions. The applicable
assets were written down to their fair values based on management's comparison
of projected future discounted cash flows generated by each asset to the
applicable asset's carrying value. These impairments were unrelated to the
Company's restructuring activities.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In September of 1998, the Company completed the sales of its automotive
Electrical Systems business to Valeo SA for approximately $1,700 million and its
Brake and Chassis unit to Continental AG of Germany for approximately $1,930
million. These dispositions were treated as discontinued operations. In
connection with
32
the sale of these businesses, the Company established accruals for taxes of
$972.7 million, representation and warranty and contract purchase price
adjustments of $148.8 million, direct costs and other accruals of $102.0 million
and environmental obligations of $16.1 million.
In 1998 and 1999, the Company received notifications of claims from the
buyers of the automotive businesses requesting post-closing adjustments to the
purchase prices under the provisions of the sales agreements. During 1999, those
claims were submitted to arbitration. In 2001 and early in 2002, both claims
were favorably resolved.

obligations in late 2004 or 2005. The Company projects that it will spend
between $3.0 million and $4.0 million in 2004 related to its remaining
automotive obligations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
CASH FLOW OVERVIEW
The Company provided $57.5 million of cash from operating activities during
the first six months of 2004. Net income generated from continuing operations of
$200.8 million, which includes $97.1 million of depreciation and amortization,
and an increase in accounts payable were the primary factors for this
performance. A $100.0 million prepaid pension contribution and a $195.9 million
increase in accounts receivable, reflecting increased sales volume and the
timing of collections, partially offset these items.
During the first six months of 2004, the Company also spent $257.3 million
on acquisitions, $114.7 million on the repurchase of common stock, $63.5 million
on capital expenditures, $30.5 million on dividend payments and $36.2 million on
the repayment of long-term debt. These actions were financed primarily with cash
from operating activities, short-term debt, and cash received from exercised
stock options.
The Company projects cash from operating activities to be between $485.0
million and $535.0 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004.
Cash Flows: Cash provided by operating activities during the first six
months of 2004 was $57.5 million, or a $90.9 million improvement over the first
six months of 2003. The improvement is primarily attributable to a $100.0
million prepaid pension contribution in 2004 compared to a $200.0 million
prepaid pension contribution in the first six months of 2003. Lower spending of
accrued expenses, higher income from continuing operations, and increased
accounts payable balances also contributed to the favorable variance with the
first six months of 2003. An increase in accounts receivable and inventory
balances partially offset the improvement in cash provided by operating
activities. These increases reflect higher volume and the timing of collections.
Status of Restructuring Activities: Restructuring payments during the
first six months of 2004 totaled $17.8 million and were comprised of $5.2
million of expenditures for the 2004 plan and $12.6 million of expenditures for
the 2003, 2002 and 2001 restructuring plans. All future payments are projected
to be paid with future cash from operating activities supplemented, as required,
by commercial paper borrowings.
Additions to Plant, Property and Equipment: Capital expenditures during
the first six months of 2004 were $63.5 million, an increase of $5.8 million
from the first six months of 2003. The increase was seen across several
operating segments.
Acquisitions: During the first six months of 2004, the Company spent
$257.3 million primarily for the acquisitions of the following:
- WEDECO AG Water Technology ("WEDECO"), the world's largest manufacturer
of UV disinfection and ozone oxidation systems, which are alternatives to
chlorine treatment.
- Shanghai Hengtong Purified Water Development Co. Ltd. and Shanghai
Hengtong Water Treatment Engineering Co. Ltd. ("Hengtong"), a
Shanghai-based producer of reverse-osmosis, membrane and other water
treatment systems for the power, pharmaceutical, chemical and
manufacturing markets in China.
The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired of
$179.7 million was recorded as goodwill.
34
On February 9, 2004, the Company signed a definitive agreement to purchase
the Remote Sensing Systems ("RSS") business from Eastman Kodak Company for
approximately $725 million. RSS is the world's leading supplier of
high-resolution satellite imaging systems and image information processing
services. The acquisition significantly broadens the Company's space payload and
service product offering for U.S. military as well as other science, government
and commercial customers.
The acquisition is expected to close in the third quarter and will be
funded via commercial paper.
During the first six months of 2003, the Company spent $42.5 million,
primarily for the acquisition of the following:
- The VEAM/TEC division of the Northrop Grumman Corporation ("VEAM"). VEAM
is a designer and manufacturer of cylinder, filter and fiber optic
connectors for the military/aerospace, industrial, transit, entertainment
and nuclear markets.
- Uniservice Wellpoint Srl., a manufacturer of high quality diesel and
electric powered, vacuum primed centrifugal pumps, along with spear or
well point dewatering systems for the rental market and sale.
The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired of
$27.6 million was recorded as goodwill.
Divestitures: During the first six months of 2004, the Company generated
$4.7 million of cash proceeds primarily from the sale of two properties. In the
first six months of 2003, the Company generated $9.5 million of cash proceeds
primarily from the sale of plant, property and equipment. This is primarily due
to the sale of land for $7.3 million at Defense Electronics & Services.
Financing Activities: Debt at June 30, 2004 was $800.2 million, compared
with $602.4 million at December 31, 2003. Cash and cash equivalents were $219.5
million at June 30, 2004, compared to $414.2 million at December 31, 2003. The
change in debt and cash levels primarily reflects the acquisition of WEDECO, the
repurchase of common stock, and the payment of dividends. In March 2004, the
Company arranged an additional revolving credit agreement of $0.4 billion to
accommodate additional acquisitions. As a result, the maximum amount of
borrowing available under the Company's revolving credit agreements, which
provide back-up for the Company's commercial paper program, at June 30, 2004,
was $1.4 billion. Borrowing through commercial paper and under the revolving
credit agreements may not exceed $1.4 billion in the aggregate outstanding at
any time.
Status of Automotive Discontinued Operations: In 2004, the Company made
immaterial payments for matters attributable to its automotive discontinued
operations. Tax obligations of $154.1 million are expected to be resolved in
late 2004 or 2005. In addition, the Company projects between $3.0 million and
$4.0 million of annual spending related to its remaining automotive obligations.
All payments are forecast to be paid with future cash from operations
supplemented, as required, by commercial paper borrowings.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported value of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
The Company has identified three accounting policies where estimates are
used that require assumptions or factors that are of an uncertain nature, or
where a different estimate could have been reasonably utilized or changes in the
estimate are reasonably likely to occur from period to period.
ENVIRONMENTAL: Accruals for environmental matters are recorded on a site
by site basis when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the
amount can be reasonably estimated. The Company calculates the liability by
utilizing a cost estimating and weighting matrix that separates costs into
recurring and non-recurring categories. The Company then uses internal and
external experts to assign confidence levels based on the site's development
stage, type of contaminant found, applicable laws, existing technologies and the
identification of other potentially responsible parties. This methodology
produces a range of estimates,
35
including a best estimate. At June 30, 2004, the Company's best estimate is
$101.6 million, which approximates the accrual related to the remediation of
ground water and soil. The low range estimate for environmental liabilities is
$77.2 million and the high range estimate is $165.1 million. On an annual basis
the Company spends between $8.0 million and $11.0 million on its environmental
remediation liabilities. These estimates, and related accruals, are reviewed
periodically and updated for progress of remediation efforts and changes in
facts and legal circumstances. Liabilities for environmental expenditures are
recorded on an undiscounted basis.
The Company is currently involved in the environmental investigation and
remediation of 104 sites, including certain instances where it is considered to
be a potentially responsible party by the United States Environmental Protection
Agency ("EPA") or similar state agency.
At present, the Company is involved in litigation against its insurers for
reimbursement of environmental response costs. Recoveries from insurance
companies or other third parties are recognized in the financial statements when
it is probable that they will be realized.
In the event that future remediation expenditures are in excess of the
amounts accrued, management does not anticipate that they will have a material
adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or
liquidity of the Company.
For additional details on environmental matters see Note 13, "Commitments
and Contingencies," in the Notes to the Consolidated Condensed Financial
Statements.
EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS: The Company sponsors numerous employee pension and
welfare benefit plans. These plans utilize various assumptions in the
determination of projected benefit obligations and expense recognition related
to pension and other postretirement obligations. These assumptions include:
discount rates, expected rates of return on plan assets, rate of future
compensation increases, mortality, termination, and health care inflation trend
rates, some of which are disclosed in Note 19, "Employee Benefit Plans," within
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the 2003 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
KEY PENSION ASSUMPTIONS
The Company determines its expected return on plan assets assumption by
evaluating both historical returns and estimates of future returns.
Specifically, the Company analyzes the Plan's actual historical annual return on
assets over the past 10, 15, 20 and 25 years; makes estimates of future returns
using a Capital Asset Pricing Model; and evaluates historical broad market
returns over the past 75 years based on the Company's strategic asset
allocation, which is detailed in Note 19, "Employee Benefit Plans," in the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements of the 2003 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Based on the approach described above, the Company estimates the long-term
annual rate of return on assets for domestic pension plans at 9.0%. For
reference, the Company's actual geometric average annual return on plan assets
for domestic pension plans stood at 10.1%, 11.2%, 11.8%, and 12.6%, for the past
10, 15, 20, and 25 year periods, respectively. The Company's weighted average
expected return on plan assets for all pension plans, including foreign
affiliate plans, at December 31, 2003, is 8.86%.
The Company utilizes the assistance of its plan actuaries in determining
the discount rate assumption. As a service to its clients, the plan actuaries
have developed and published an interest rate yield curve to enable companies to
make judgments pursuant to EITF Topic No. D-36, "Selection of Discount Rates
Used for Measuring Defined Benefit Pension Obligations and Obligations of Post
Retirement Benefit Plans Other Than Pensions." The yield curve is comprised of
AAA/AA bonds with maturities between zero and thirty years. The plan actuaries
then discount the annual benefit cash flows of the Company's pension plan using
this yield curve and develop a single-point discount rate matching the plan's
characteristics.
At December 31, 2003, the Company lowered the discount rate on all of its
domestic pension plans, which represent about 90% of the Company's total pension
obligations, from 6.50% to 6.25%. The Company's weighted average discount rate
for all pension plans, including foreign affiliate plans, at December 31, 2003,
is 6.18%.
36
At December 31, 2003, the Company also lowered its expected rate of future
compensation increases for its domestic plan participants to 4.5%, from 5.0%,
based on recent historical experience and expectations for future economic
conditions.

Discount Rate used to determine net periodic benefit cost... 6.44% 7.14%

benefit obligation at Dec. 31............................. 4.42% 4.88%
Management develops each assumption using relevant Company experience in
conjunction with market related data for each individual country in which such
plans exist. All assumptions are reviewed periodically with third party
actuarial consultants and adjusted as necessary.
PENSION PLAN ACCOUNTING AND INFORMATION
The Company's strategic asset allocation target for its U.S. domestic plans
apportions 70% of all assets to equity instruments and the remaining 30% to
fixed income instruments. At December 31, 2003, the Company's actual asset
allocation was 68.5% in equity instruments, 21.6% in fixed income instruments
and 9.7% in hedge funds, with the remainder in cash and other.
On an annual basis, the Company's long-term expected return on plan assets
will often differ from the actual return on plan assets. The chart below shows
actual returns versus the expected long-term returns for the Company's domestic
pension plans that are utilized in the calculation of the net periodic benefit
cost. For more information, please see Note 19, "Employee Benefit Plans," in the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the 2003 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
2003 2002 2001 2000 1999
---- ----- ---- ---- ----
Expected Return on Assets.................................. 9.00% 9.75% 9.75% 9.75% 9.75%
Actual Return on Assets.................................... 28.3% (10.9)% (4.0)% (0.7)% 22.4%
The Company's Defense Electronics & Services segment represents
approximately 50% of the active U.S. Salaried Plan participants. As a result,
the Company has sought and will continue to seek reimbursement from the
Department of Defense for a portion of its pension costs, in accordance with
government regulations. U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) govern
the extent to which pension costs are allocable to and recoverable under
contracts with the U.S. Government. Reimbursements of pension costs are made
over time through the pricing of the Company's products and services on U.S.
Government contracts.
Funding requirements under IRS rules are a major consideration in
determining the amount of contributions we make to our pension plans. The
Company contributed $206.3 million to our domestic pension plans during 2003,
and an additional $106.3 million in the first six months of 2004. Of these
amounts, $200.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively, have been contributed
to the domestic Salaried Retirement Plan. As a result, the Company does not
expect to face any material minimum required contributions to any of its
domestic pension plans for the balance of 2004 and 2005 under current IRS
requirements.
Depending on market conditions and recently passed revisions to the IRS
contribution requirements, the Company estimates that it may be required to make
additional contributions between zero and $400.0 million in 2006.
FUNDED STATUS
Funded status is derived by subtracting the value of the projected benefit
obligations at December 31, 2003 from the end of year fair value of plan assets.
The Company's U.S. Salaried Pension Plan represents approximately 80% of the
Company's total pension obligation, and therefore the funded status of the
37
U.S. Salaried Pension Plan has a considerable impact on the overall funded
status of the Company's pension plans.
During 2003, the Company's U.S. Salaried Pension Plan assets grew by $647.0
million to $2,989.2 million at the end of 2003. This increase primarily
reflected return on assets of $659.0 million, and Company contributions of
$200.0 million, offset by payments to plan beneficiaries of $206.8 million.
Also during 2003, the projected benefit obligation for the U.S. Salaried
Pension Plan increased by $152.0 million to $3,448.8 million. The increase
included the $104.3 million impact of a 25 basis point decline in the discount
rate at year-end. This was partially offset by the $(28.3) million impact of a
50 basis point decrease in the expected rate of future compensation increases.
As a result, the funded status for the Company's U.S. Salaried Plan improved by
$495.4 million to $(459.6) million at the end of 2003. Funded status for the
Company's total pension obligations, including foreign and affiliate plans,
improved by $452.6 million to $(871.3) million at the end of 2003.
Funded status at the end of 2004 will depend primarily on the actual return
on assets during the year and the discount rate at the end of the year. The
Company estimates that every 25 basis points change in the discount rate impacts
the funded status of the U.S. Salaried Pension Plan, which represents about 80%
of the Company's pension obligations, by approximately $104 million. Similarly,
every five percentage point change in the actual 2004 rate of return on assets
impacts the same plan by approximately $150 million.
MINIMUM PENSION LIABILITY
SFAS No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions" ("SFAS No. 87"), requires
that a minimum pension liability be recorded if a plan's market value of assets
falls below the plan's accumulated benefit obligation.
In 2002, the combination of a decline in the discount rate and a decline in
assets caused several of the Company's plans to be in a deficit position.
Accordingly, during 2002, the Company recorded a total after-tax reduction of
$765.5 million to its total shareholders' equity. It is important to note that
these actions did not cause a default in any of the Company's debt covenants. As
a result of the improved financial markets in 2003, the Company recorded a total
after-tax increase of $182.5 to its shareholders' equity at year-end 2003.
Future recognition of additional minimum pension liabilities will depend
primarily on the rate of return on assets and the prevailing discount rate.
PENSION EXPENSE
The Company uses the market-related value of assets method, as described in
paragraph 30 of SFAS No. 87, for the calculation of pension expense. This method
recognizes investment gains or losses over a five-year period from the year in
which they occur. In addition, in accordance with paragraph 32 of SFAS No. 87, a
portion of the Company's unrecognized net actuarial loss is amortized and this
cost is included in the net periodic benefit cost.
The Company recorded $33.0 million of net periodic pension cost ($35.4
million after considering the effects of curtailment losses) into its
Consolidated Income Statement in 2003, compared with pension income of $10.4
million in 2002. The 2003 net periodic pension cost reflected benefit service
cost of $73.3 million and interest cost on accrued benefits of $256.5 million,
offset by the expected return on plan assets of $327.0 million. In addition, the
2003 pension expense included $23.5 million of amortization of past losses, up
from $3.2 million in 2002. The primary drivers behind the increase in the net
periodic pension cost were the effect of the change in the discount rate, the
effect of the lowered assumption as to expected return on assets and the
increase in amortization of past losses in 2003.
In 2004, the Company expects to incur approximately $70 million of pension
expense that will be recorded into its Consolidated Income Statement. The
increase in pension expense is primarily due to the effect of the change in
discount rate and higher amortization of past losses. See Note 12, "Pension and
38
Postretirement Medical Benefit Expenses," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed
Financial Statements for additional details, including pension expense incurred
during the first six months of 2004.
REVENUE RECOGNITION: The Company recognizes revenue as services are
rendered and when title transfers for products, subject to any special terms and
conditions of specific contracts. For the majority of the Company's sales, title
transfers when products are shipped. Under certain circumstances, title passes
when products are delivered. In the Defense Electronics & Services segment,
certain contracts require the delivery, installation, testing, certification and
customer acceptance before revenue can be recorded. Further, some sales are
recognized when the customer picks up the product.
The Defense Electronics & Services segment typically recognizes revenue and
anticipated profits under long-term, fixed-price contracts based on units of
delivery or the completion of scheduled performance milestones. Estimated
contract costs and resulting margins are recorded in proportion to recorded
sales. During the performance of such contracts, estimated final contract prices
and costs (design, manufacturing, and engineering and development costs) are
periodically reviewed and revisions are made when necessary. The effect of these
revisions to estimates is included in earnings in the period in which revisions
are made. There were no material revisions to estimates in the covered periods.
Accruals for estimated expenses related to warranties are made at the time
products are sold or services are rendered. These accruals are established using
historical information on the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty
claims and estimates of future costs. Management believes the warranty accruals
are adequate; however, actual warranty expenses could differ from estimated
amounts. The accrual for product warranties at June 30, 2004 and 2003 was $34.5
million and $41.1 million, respectively. See Note 14, "Guarantees, Indemnities
and Warranties," in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for
additional details.
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
SFAS No. 132 (revised December 2003), "Employers' Disclosures About Pensions and
Other Post Retirement Benefits." This revised SFAS retains the disclosure
requirements of SFAS 132. Additionally, the pronouncement requires additional
disclosures regarding the types of plan assets, investment strategy, measurement
dates, plan obligations, cash flows and components of net periodic benefit cost
recognized during interim periods for defined benefit pension plans and other
defined benefit post retirement plans. The Company adopted this pronouncement
effective December 31, 2003. Adoption did not have a material impact on the
financial statements of the Company.
In April 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 149, "Amendment of Statement 133 on
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 149 amends and
clarifies accounting for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities under SFAS No.
133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No.
149 clarifies the circumstances under which a contract with an initial net
investment meets the characteristics of a derivative as discussed in SFAS No
133. In addition, SFAS No. 149 clarifies when a derivative contains a financing
component that warrants special reporting in the statement of cash flows. SFAS
No. 149 is effective for contracts entered into or modified after June 30, 2003,
and for hedging relationships designated after June 30, 2003. The adoption of
this interpretation did not have a material effect on the Company's financial
statements.
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain
Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity." SFAS
No. 150 requires certain financial instruments that embody obligations of the
issuer and have characteristics of both liabilities and equity to be classified
as liabilities. The provisions of SFAS No. 150 were effective for financial
instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003 and to all other
instruments that exist as of the beginning of the first interim financial
reporting period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company did not have any
financial instruments that met the provisions of SFAS No. 150; therefore, the
adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial statements.
39
In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of
Variable Interest Entities" ("FIN 46"). FIN 46 requires unconsolidated variable
interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the
entities do not effectively disperse the risks and rewards of ownership among
their owners and other parties involved. The provisions of FIN 46 are applicable
to all variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and variable
interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date.
For variable interest entities created before January 31, 2003, the provisions
were effective December 31, 2003. The Company did not create or obtain any
variable interest entities during 2003. The Company elected early adoption of
the provisions of FIN 46 related to variable interest entities created prior to
January 31, 2003 as of July 1, 2003. The adoption of this interpretation did not
have a material effect on the Company's financial statements. In December 2003,
the FASB issued a revision to Interpretation No. 46; however, it had no impact
on ITT's adoption.
In January 2004, FASB Staff Position ("FSP") No. 106-1, "Accounting and
Disclosure Requirements Related to the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement
and Modernization Act of 2003" ("FSP No. 106-1") was issued. Subsequently, FSP
No. 106-2 was issued, which amends FSP No. 106-1 and permits the deferral of
recognizing the effects of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and
Modernization Act of 2003 (the Act) in the accounting for postretirement health
care plans under SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement
Benefits Other Than Pensions," and in providing disclosures related to the plan
required by SFAS No. 132. The deferral of the accounting for the Act continues
to apply until authoritative guidance is issued on the accounting for the
federal subsidiary provided by the Act or until certain other events requiring
plan remeasurement. The Company has elected the deferral provided by this FSP
and is evaluating the magnitude of the potential favorable impact of the subsidy
on the financial statements. The authoritative guidance, when issued, could
require a change to previously reported information. See Note 19, "Employee
Benefit Plans," in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the 2003
Annual Report on Form 10-K for discussion of postretirement benefits.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The Company is subject to stringent environmental laws and regulations that
affect its operating facilities and impose liability for the cleanup of past
discharges of hazardous substances. In the United States, these laws include the
Federal Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Resource Conservation and
Recovery Act, and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and
Liability Act. Management believes that the Company is in substantial compliance
with these and all other applicable environmental requirements. Environmental
compliance costs are accounted for as normal operating expenses.
In estimating the costs of environmental investigation and remediation, the
Company considers, among other things, regulatory standards, its prior
experience in remediating contaminated sites, and the professional judgment of
environmental experts. It is difficult to estimate the total costs of
investigation and remediation due to various factors, including incomplete
information regarding particular sites and other potentially responsible
parties, uncertainty regarding the extent of contamination and the Company's
share, if any, of liability for such problems, the selection of alternative
remedies, and changes in cleanup standards. When it is possible to create
reasonable estimates of liability with respect to environmental matters, the
Company establishes accruals in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted within the United States. Insurance recoveries are included in other
assets when it is probable that a claim will be realized. Although the outcome
of the Company's various remediation efforts presently cannot be predicted with
a high level of certainty, management does not expect that these matters will
have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position,
results of operations, or cash flows. For disclosure of the Company's
commitments and contingencies, see Note 21, "Commitments and Contingencies" in
the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of the 2003 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
