Rexnord Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2017
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Rexnord Corporation (“Rexnord” or the "Company") in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). The amendments in ASU 2017-04 allow companies to apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for the beginning of the Company's fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied prospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02''), which requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the balance sheets. ASU 2016-02 is effective beginning for the Company's fiscal 2020 and interim periods included therein on a modified retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial statements upon adoption.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory ("ASU 2015-11"). ASU 2015-11 requires inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, which is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Under existing guidance, net realizable value is one of several calculations needed to measure inventory at lower of cost or market and as such, the new guidance reduces the complexity in measurement. The Company adopted ASU No. 2015-11 prospectively effective April 1, 2017 and there was no impact to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
7
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, which changes how employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement benefit plans present the net periodic benefit cost in the income statement. The new guidance requires the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost to be presented in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period with only the service cost component eligible for capitalization in assets. Other components of the net periodic benefit cost are to be stated separately from the line item(s) that includes the service cost and outside of operating income. The standard is required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that annual period, which is the Company's fiscal year 2019. The amendment is to be applied retrospectively. The Company has not yet evaluated the impact of adoption of this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09") in order to develop a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The guidance specifies revenue should be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration the company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The guidance provides a five-step process that entities should follow in order to achieve that core principal. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company on April 1, 2018. Companies can use either a full retrospective or modified retrospective method to adopt the standard. Under the full retrospective method, the requirements of the new standard are applied to contracts for each prior reporting period presented and the cumulative effective of applying the standard is recognized in the earliest period presented. Under the modified retrospective method, prior periods are not updated to be presented on an accounting basis that is consistent with information for fiscal 2019. Rather, a cumulative adjustment for the effects of applying the new standard to periods prior to fiscal 2019 is recorded to retained earnings as of April 1, 2018. The Company has not yet selected which approach to apply but is anticipating using the modified retrospective approach.
The Company is assessing the impact of the new standard on its business by reviewing its current accounting policies and practices, including detailed reviews of customer contracts, to identify potential differences that would result from applying the requirements of the new standard to its revenue contracts. The Company will provide additional disclosure as its ongoing assessment progresses.

2. Acquisitions
Fiscal Year 2017 Acquisitions
On June 1, 2016, the Company acquired Cambridge International Holdings Corp. ("Cambridge") for a cash purchase price of $213.4 million. The purchase price consisted of an enterprise value of $210.0 million, excluding transaction costs and net of cash acquired, plus additional consideration of $3.4 million related to the acquisition of certain tax benefits and real property classified as held for sale at the acquisition date. During fiscal 2017, the Company received a cash payment of $0.7 million from the sellers in connection with finalizing the acquisition date trade working capital, which is reflected in the additional consideration above. Cambridge, with operations in Cambridge, Maryland and Matamoros, Mexico, is one of the world's largest suppliers of metal conveying and engineered woven metal solutions, primarily used in food processing end markets, as well as in architectural, packaging and filtration applications. The acquisition of Cambridge expanded the Company's presence in consumer-driven end markets in the Process & Motion Control platform.
The Company's results of operations include the acquired operations subsequent to June 1, 2016. Pro-forma results of operations and certain other U.S. GAAP disclosures related to the Cambridge acquisition have not been presented because they are not material to the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations and condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The acquisition of Cambridge was accounted for as a business combination and recorded by allocating the purchase price to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date. The excess of the acquisition purchase price over the fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. The purchase price allocation resulted in non-tax deductible goodwill of $129.4 million, other intangible assets of $80.6 million (includes tradenames of $16.8 million, customer relationships of $58.3 million and patents of $5.5 million) and other net assets of $3.4 million.
In fiscal 2017, the Company acquired the remaining non-controlling interest in a Water Management joint venture for a cash purchase price of approximately $0.3 million, net of cash acquired and excluding transaction costs. The acquisition of the remaining minority interest was not material to the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations or financial position.

3. Restructuring and Other Similar Charges
During fiscal 2018, the Company continued to execute various restructuring actions. These initiatives were implemented to drive efficiencies and reduce operating costs while also modifying the Company's footprint to reflect changes in the markets it serves, the impact of acquisitions on the Company's overall manufacturing capacity and the refinement of its overall product portfolio. These restructuring actions primarily resulted in workforce reductions, lease termination costs, and other facility rationalization costs. Management expects to continue executing initiatives to optimize its operating margin and manufacturing footprint, as well as select product-line rationalizations. As such, the Company expects further expenses related to workforce reductions, potential impairment or accelerated depreciation of assets, lease termination costs, and other facility rationalization costs. The Company's restructuring plans are preliminary and related expenses are not yet estimable.
The following table summarizes the Company's restructuring and other similar charges during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 by classification of operating segment (in millions):

(1) The restructuring accrual is included in other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
In connection with the ongoing supply chain optimization and footprint repositioning initiatives, the Company has taken several actions to consolidate existing manufacturing facilities and rationalize its product offerings. These actions require the Company to assess whether the carrying amount of impacted long-lived assets will be recoverable as well as whether the remaining useful lives require adjustment. As a result, the Company recognized accelerated depreciation of $1.0 million and $0.6 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively. Accelerated depreciation is recorded within Cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
During fiscal 2016, the Company decided to exit product lines sold under the Rodney Hunt Fontaine ("RHF") tradename. The Company evaluated the requirements for held for sale and discontinued operations presentation in connection with the decision to exit its flow-control gate product line and determined the product line did not meet the definition provided within the authoritative literature of held for sale or discontinued operations. The Company completed the exit of the RHF product line in fiscal 2017. Pre-tax loss from operations associated with this non-strategic RHF product line was $4.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2016, and included restructuring and other similar charges of $1.6 million.
10
4. Income Taxes
The provision (benefit) for income taxes for all periods presented is based on an estimated effective income tax rate for the respective full fiscal years. The estimated annual effective income tax rate is determined excluding the effect of significant discrete items or items that are reported net of their related tax effects. The tax effects of significant discrete items are reflected in the period in which they occur. The Company's income tax expense is impacted by a number of factors, including the amount of taxable earnings derived in foreign jurisdictions with tax rates that are generally lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate, state tax rates in the jurisdictions where the Company does business and the Company's ability to utilize various tax credits and net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards.
The Company regularly reviews its deferred tax assets for recoverability and establishes valuation allowances based on historical losses, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences, as deemed appropriate. In addition, all other available positive and negative evidence is taken into consideration for purposes of determining the proper balances of such valuation allowances. As a result of this review, the Company continues to maintain valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets relating to certain foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards. Future changes to the balances of these valuation allowances, as a result of this continued review and analysis by the Company, could result in a material impact to the financial statements for such period of change.
Income tax provision was $8.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to an income tax benefit of $5.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was 23.6% versus (45.4)% in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was below the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the recognition of excess U.S. foreign tax credits, the recognition of certain foreign branch related losses for U.S. income tax purposes and the recognition of certain previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the lapse of the applicable statutes of limitations. The income tax benefit recognized on income before income taxes for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily due to excess tax benefits associated with share-based payments, the recognition of a worthless stock deduction for U.S. income tax purposes relating to an insolvent foreign subsidiary and the recognition of excess U.S. foreign tax credits.
At June 30, 2017, the Company had an $18.3 million liability for unrecognized net income tax benefits. At March 31, 2017, the Company’s total liability for unrecognized net income tax benefits was $18.1 million. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits in income tax expense. As of June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, the total amount of gross, unrecognized income tax benefits included $4.9 million and $4.7 million of accrued interest and penalties, respectively. The Company recognized $0.1 million of net interest and penalties in income tax expense during both the three months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016.
The Company conducts business in multiple locations within and outside the U.S. Consequently, the Company is subject to periodic income tax examinations by domestic and foreign income tax authorities. Currently, the Company is undergoing routine, periodic income tax examinations in both domestic and foreign jurisdictions (including a review of a few specific items on certain corporate income tax returns of the Company’s Netherlands subsidiaries for the tax years ended March 31, 2011 through 2015). In addition, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service is currently examining the Company’s U.S. consolidated federal income tax return and related amended return for the tax year ended March 31, 2015. During the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company completed an examination of certain of its Italian subsidiaries’ corporate income tax returns for the tax years ended March 31, 2014 through 2016 and paid approximately $0.7 million upon the conclusion of such examination. In addition, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company completed an examination of certain of its German subsidiaries’ corporate income and trade tax returns for the tax years ended March 31, 2011 through 2014, and paid approximately $0.4 million upon conclusion of such examination. It appears reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized income tax benefits could change in the next twelve months upon conclusion of the Company’s current ongoing examinations; however, any potential payments of income tax, interest and penalties are not expected to be significant to the Company's consolidated financial statements. With certain exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for tax years ending prior to March 31, 2014, state and local income tax examinations for years ending prior to fiscal 2013 or significant foreign income tax examinations for years ending prior to fiscal 2012. With respect to the Company's U.S. federal NOL carryforward (which was fully utilized for the tax year ended March 31, 2015), the short tax period from July 21, 2006 to March 31, 2007 (due to the change in control when Apollo Management, L.P. acquired the Company) and the tax years ended March 31, 2008 through March 31, 2013 are open under statutes of limitations; whereby, the Internal Revenue Service may not adjust the income tax liability for these years, but may reduce the NOL carryforward and any other tax attribute carryforwards to currently open tax years.

The computation of diluted net income per share for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 excludes 5.5 million and 5.2 million shares related to equity awards due to their anti-dilutive effects, respectively. The computation for diluted net income per share also does not include shares of preferred stock that are convertible into a weighted average 17.3 million common shares for the three months ended June 30, 2017 because to do so would have been anti-dilutive.

Preferred Stock
During fiscal 2017, the Company issued 8,050,000 depositary shares, each of which represents a 1/20th interest in a share of 5.75% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), for an offering price of $50 per depository share. The Company issued an aggregate of 402,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in connection therewith. Unless converted earlier, each share of Series A Preferred Stock will convert automatically on the mandatory conversion date, which is November 15, 2019, into between 39.7020 and 47.6420 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion will be determined based on a defined average volume weighted average price per share of the Company’s common stock preceding November 15, 2019. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may elect on a voluntary basis to convert their shares into common stock at the minimum exchange ratio at any time prior to the mandatory conversion date.
Dividends accumulate from the issuance date. Rexnord may pay such dividends in cash or, subject to certain limitations, by delivery of shares of the Company's common stock or through any combination of cash and shares of the Company's common stock as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. Any unpaid dividends will continue to accumulate. Dividends are payable quarterly, ending on November 15, 2019. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock have a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends. With respect to dividend and liquidation rights, the Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company's common stock and junior to all existing and future indebtedness.
The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $389.7 million. The Company used $195.0 million of the proceeds to prepay a portion of the then-outstanding term loan indebtedness under its credit agreement, with the remainder retained for
12
general corporate purposes. During the three months ended June 30, 2017 the Company paid $5.8 million of dividends. As of June 30, 2017, there were no dividends in arrears on the Series A Preferred Stock.
Common Stock Repurchase Program
In fiscal 2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") authorizing the repurchase of up to $200.0 million of the Company's common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The Repurchase Program does not require the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and does not specify the timing of purchases or the prices to be paid; however, the program will continue until the maximum amount of dollars authorized have been expended or until it is modified or terminated by the Board. No shares were repurchased during the three months ended June 30, 2017 or June 30, 2016. A total of approximately $160.0 million remained of the existing repurchase authority at June 30, 2017.

Senior Secured Credit Facility
The Company’s Third Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) is funded by a syndicate of banks and other financial institutions and provides for (i) a $1,606.4 million term loan facility that matures on August 21, 2023 ( the“Term Loan”) and (ii) a $265.0 million revolving credit facility that matures on March 15, 2019. At June 30, 2017, the borrowings under the Term Loan had a weighted-average effective interest rate of 4.05%, determined as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) (subject to a 1.00% floor) plus an applicable margin of 2.75%. The weighted-average interest rate for the period ended June 30, 2017, was 3.89% determined as LIBOR (subject to a 1.0% floor) plus an applicable margin of 2.75%. No amounts were borrowed under the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2017 or March 31, 2017; however, $14.3 million and $14.6 million of the revolving credit facility were considered utilized in connection with outstanding letters of credit at June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, respectively.
As of June 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants under its Credit Agreement, including compliance with a maximum permitted total net leverage ratio (the sole financial maintenance covenant under the revolving credit facility) of 6.75 to 1.0. The Company's total net leverage ratio was 3.2 to 1.0 as of June 30, 2017.
15
Accounts Receivable Securitization Program
The Company maintains an accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Securitization”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Pursuant to the Securitization, Rexnord Funding (a wholly owned bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary) has granted the lender under the Securitization a security interest in all of its current and future receivables and related assets in exchange for a credit facility permitting borrowings of up to a maximum aggregate amount of $100.0 million outstanding from time to time. Such borrowings will be used by Rexnord Funding to finance purchases of accounts receivable. The Securitization constitutes a “Permitted Receivables Financing” under Article 1 and Article 6 of the Credit Agreement. Any borrowings under the Securitization are accounted for as secured borrowings on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets.
As of both June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, the Company's available borrowing capacity under the Securitization was $100.0 million, based on the then-current accounts receivables. No amounts were borrowed under the Securitization at June 30, 2017 or March 31, 2017; however, $4.6 million was considered utilized in connection with outstanding letters of credit at both June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017. As of June 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants and performance ratios contained in the Securitization.
See Note 11 to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company's fiscal 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information regarding long-term debt.
12. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to certain financial risks relating to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company currently selectively uses foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage its foreign currency risk. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to defined policies and procedures that prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative purposes.
Foreign Exchange Contracts
The Company periodically enters into foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the foreign currency volatility relative to certain intercompany and external cash flows expected to occur. These foreign currency forward contracts were not accounted for as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), and as such were marked to market through earnings. The amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and recognized within the condensed consolidated statements of operations related to the Company's foreign currency forward contracts are set forth within the tables below.
Interest Rate Derivatives
The Company utilizes three interest rate swaps to hedge the variability in future cash flows associated with a portion of the Company’s variable-rate term loans. The interest rate swaps, which became effective on September 28, 2015, convert $650.0 million of the Company’s variable-rate term loans to a weighted average fixed interest rate of 2.55% plus the applicable margin (inclusive of a 1% LIBOR floor). The interest rate swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815 and will mature on September 27, 2018.
In addition, the Company utilizes two interest rate caps to further mitigate the Company's exposure to increasing interest rates on its variable-rate interest loans. Those interest rate caps were effective beginning as of October 24, 2014, with a maturity of October 24, 2018, and they cap the interest on $750.0 million of the Company's variable-rate interest loans at 3%, plus the applicable margin. In executing the interest rate caps, the Company paid a premium of $5.8 million. The interest rate caps have been designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815. When combined with the Company's existing interest rate swaps, the Company has hedged approximately 88% of its outstanding variable rate term loans with a weighted average interest rate that cannot exceed 2.79% plus the applicable margin of 2.75%.
The fair values of the Company's interest rate derivatives are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets with the corresponding offset recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. See the amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the Company's interest rate derivatives within the tables below.
The Company's derivatives are measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (“ASC 820”). See Note 13 for more information as it relates to the fair value measurement of the Company's derivative financial instruments. The following tables indicate the location and the fair value of the Company's derivative instruments within

As of June 30, 2017, there was no ineffectiveness on the Company's designated hedging instruments. The Company expects to reclassify approximately $10.3 million of losses related to its interest rate derivatives recorded within accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings as interest expense during the next twelve months.
13. Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 also specifies a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use.
In accordance with ASC 820, fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:
• | Level 1- Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets. |
• | Level 2- Quoted prices for similar instruments; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value-drivers are observable. |
• | Level 3- Model-derived valuations in which one or more inputs or value-drivers are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. |
If applicable, the Company uses quoted market prices in active markets to determine fair value, and therefore classifies such measurements within Level 1. In some cases where market prices are not available, the Company makes use of observable
17
market-based inputs to calculate fair value, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2. If quoted or observable market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use, where possible, current market-based parameters. These measurements are classified within Level 3 if they use significant unobservable inputs.
Fair Value of Derivative Instruments
The Company transacts in foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps, and interest rate caps. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is based on a pricing model that utilizes the differential between the contract price and the market-based forward rate as applied to fixed future deliveries of currency at pre-designated settlement dates. The fair value of interest rate swaps and interest rate caps is based on pricing models. These models use discounted cash flows that utilize the appropriate market-based forward swap curves and interest rates.
The Company endeavors to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. As required by ASC 820, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps reside within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between levels for the periods presented. The following table provides a summary of the Company's assets and liabilities recognized at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 (in millions):

Fair Value of Non-Derivative Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash, receivables, payables and accrued liabilities approximated fair value at June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 due to the short-term nature of those instruments. The fair value of long-term debt as of June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017 was approximately $1,636.2 million and $1,644.6 million, respectively. The fair value is based on quoted market prices for the same issues.
Long-lived Assets and Intangible Assets
Long-lived assets (which includes property, plant and equipment and real estate) may be measured at fair value if such assets are held-for-sale or when there is a determination that the asset is impaired. Intangible assets (which include patents, tradenames, customer relationships, and non-compete agreements) also may be measured at fair value when there is a determination that the asset is impaired. The determination of fair value for these assets is based on the best information available that resides within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, including internal cash flow estimates discounted at an appropriate interest rate, quoted market prices when available, market prices for similar assets and independent appraisals, as appropriate. For real estate, cash flow estimates are based on current market estimates that reflect current and projected lease profiles and available industry information about expected trends in rental, occupancy and capitalization rates.
During fiscal 2017, the Company recorded an impairment loss and placed certain property, plant and equipment associated with the Company's supply chain optimization and footprint optimization actions at net realizable value. Net realizable value of these assets was determined using independent appraisals of the assets, classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. As of both June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, these assets had a net realizable value of $7.0 million.

14. Commitments and Contingencies
Warranties:
The Company offers warranties on the sales of certain products and records an accrual for estimated future claims. Such accruals are based upon historical experience and management's estimate of the level of future claims. The following table presents changes in the Company's product warranty liability (in millions):
Three Months Ended | ||||||||
June 30, 2017 | June 30, 2016 | |||||||
Balance at beginning of period | $ | 7.5 | $ | 6.8 | ||||
Acquired obligations | — | 0.4 | ||||||
Charged to operations | 0.7 | 0.9 | ||||||
Claims settled | (1.4 | ) | (1.5 | ) | ||||
Balance at end of period | $ | 6.8 | $ | 6.6 | ||||
Contingencies:
The Company's subsidiaries are involved in various unresolved legal actions, administrative proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business involving, among other things, product liability, commercial, employment, workers' compensation, intellectual property claims and environmental matters. The Company establishes accruals in a manner that is consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for costs associated with such matters when liability is probable and those costs are capable of being reasonably estimated. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss or recovery, based upon current information, management believes the eventual outcome of these unresolved legal actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In connection with its sale of the Company, Invensys plc ("Invensys") provided the Company with indemnification against certain contingent liabilities, including certain pre-closing environmental liabilities. The Company believes that, pursuant to such indemnity obligations, Invensys is obligated to defend and indemnify the Company with respect to the matters described below relating to the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site and to various asbestos claims. The indemnity obligations relating to the matters described below are subject, together with indemnity obligations relating to other matters, to an overall dollar cap equal to the purchase price, which is an amount in excess of $900 million. The following paragraphs summarize the most significant actions and proceedings:
• | In 2002, Rexnord Industries, LLC (“Rexnord Industries”) was named as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”), together with at least ten other companies, at the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site, Downers Grove, DuPage County, Illinois (the “Site”), by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”), and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“IEPA”). Rexnord Industries' Downers Grove property is situated within the Ellsworth Industrial Complex. The USEPA and IEPA allege there have been one or more releases or threatened releases of chlorinated solvents and other hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants, allegedly including but not limited to a release or threatened release on or from the Company's property, at the Site. The relief sought by the USEPA and IEPA includes further investigation and potential remediation of the Site and reimbursement of USEPA's past costs. Rexnord Industries' allocated share of past and future costs related to the Site, including for investigation and/or remediation, could be significant. All previously pending property damage and personal injury lawsuits against the Company related to the Site have been settled or dismissed. Pursuant to its indemnity obligation, Invensys continues to defend the Company in known matters related to the Site and has paid 100% of the costs to date. |
• | Multiple lawsuits (with approximately 300 claimants) are pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain brakes and clutches previously manufactured by the Company's Stearns division and/or its predecessor owners. Invensys and FMC, prior owners of the Stearns business, have paid 100% of the costs to date related to the Stearns lawsuits. Similarly, the Company's Prager subsidiary is a defendant in two pending multi-defendant lawsuits relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in a product allegedly manufactured by Prager. Additionally, there are numerous individuals who have filed asbestos related claims against Prager; however, these claims are currently on the Texas Multi-district Litigation inactive docket. The ultimate outcome of these asbestos matters cannot presently be determined. To date, the Company's insurance providers have paid 100% of the costs related to the Prager asbestos matters. The Company believes that the combination of its insurance coverage and the Invensys indemnity obligations will cover any future costs of these matters. |
In connection with the Company's acquisition of The Falk Corporation (“Falk”), Hamilton Sundstrand provided the Company with indemnification against certain products-related asbestos exposure liabilities. The Company believes that, pursuant to such indemnity obligations, Hamilton Sundstrand is obligated to defend and indemnify the Company with respect to the asbestos
19
claims described below, and that, with respect to these claims, such indemnity obligations are not subject to any time or dollar limitations.
The following paragraph summarizes the most significant actions and proceedings for which Hamilton Sundstrand has accepted responsibility:
• | Falk, through its successor entity, is a defendant in multiple lawsuits pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain clutches and drives previously manufactured by Falk. There are approximately 100 claimants in these suits. The ultimate outcome of these lawsuits cannot presently be determined. Hamilton Sundstrand is defending the Company in these lawsuits pursuant to its indemnity obligations and has paid 100% of the costs to date. |
Certain Water Management subsidiaries are also subject to asbestos litigation. As of June 30, 2017, Zurn and numerous other unrelated companies were defendants in approximately 7,000 asbestos related lawsuits representing approximately 17,000 claims. Plaintiffs' claims allege personal injuries caused by exposure to asbestos used primarily in industrial boilers formerly manufactured by a segment of Zurn. Zurn did not manufacture asbestos or asbestos components. Instead, Zurn purchased them from suppliers. These claims are being handled pursuant to a defense strategy funded by insurers.
As of June 30, 2017, the Company estimates the potential liability for the asbestos-related claims described above as well as the claims expected to be filed in the next ten years to be approximately $37.0 million, of which Zurn expects its insurance carriers to pay approximately $28.0 million in the next ten years on such claims, with the balance of the estimated liability being paid in subsequent years. The $37.0 million was developed based on actuarial studies and represents the projected indemnity payout for current and future claims. There are inherent uncertainties involved in estimating the number of future asbestos claims, future settlement costs, and the effectiveness of defense strategies and settlement initiatives. As a result, actual liability could differ from the estimate described herein and could be substantial. The liability for the asbestos-related claims is recorded in Other liabilities within the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Management estimates that its available insurance to cover this potential asbestos liability as of June 30, 2017, is approximately $241.9 million, and believes that all current claims are covered by insurance. However, principally as a result of the past insolvency of certain of the Company's insurance carriers, certain coverage gaps will exist if and after the Company's other carriers have paid the first $165.9 million of aggregate liabilities.
As of June 30, 2017, the Company had a recorded receivable from its insurance carriers of $37.0 million, which corresponds to the amount of this potential asbestos liability that is covered by available insurance and is currently determined to be probable of recovery. However, there is no assurance that $241.9 million of insurance coverage will ultimately be available or that this asbestos liability will not ultimately exceed $241.9 million. Factors that could cause a decrease in the amount of available coverage include: changes in law governing the policies, potential disputes with the carriers regarding the scope of coverage, and insolvencies of one or more of the Company's carriers. The receivable for probable asbestos-related recoveries is recorded in Other assets within the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Certain Company subsidiaries were named as defendants in a number of individual and class action lawsuits in various United States courts claiming damages due to the alleged failure or anticipated failure of Zurn brass fittings on the PEX plumbing systems in homes and other structures. In fiscal 2013, the Company reached a court-approved agreement to settle the liability underlying this litigation. The settlement is designed to resolve, on a national basis, the Company's overall exposure for both known and unknown claims related to the alleged failure or anticipated failure of such fittings, subject to the right of eligible class members to opt-out of the settlement and pursue their claims independently. The settlement utilizes a seven year claims fund, which is capped at $20.0 million, and is funded in installments over the seven year period based on claim activity and minimum funding criteria. The settlement also covers class action plaintiffs' attorneys' fees and expenses. Historically, the Company's insurance carrier had funded the Company's defense in the above referenced proceedings. The Company, however, reached a settlement agreement with its insurer, whereby the insurer paid the Company a lump sum in exchange for a release of future exposure related to this liability. The Company has recorded an accrual related to this brass fittings liability, which takes into account, in pertinent part, the insurance carrier contribution, as well as exposure from the claims fund, opt-outs and the waiver of future insurance coverage.

During the first three months of fiscal 2018 and 2017, the Company made contributions of $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively, to its U.S. qualified pension plan trusts.
In accordance with the Company's accounting policy for defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans, actuarial gains and losses above the corridor are immediately recognized in the Company's operating results. The corridor is 10% of the higher of the pension benefit obligation or the fair value of the plan assets. This adjustment is typically recorded annually in the fourth quarter in connection with the Company's required year-end re-measurement of plan assets and benefit obligations, or upon any off-cycle re-measurement event.
See Note 16 to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company's fiscal 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information regarding retirement benefits.
16. Stock-Based Compensation
The Rexnord Corporation Performance Incentive Plan (the "Plan") is utilized to provide performance incentives to the Company's officers, employees, directors and certain others by permitting grants of equity awards (for common stock), as well as performance-based cash awards, to such persons to encourage them to maximize Rexnord's performance and create value for Rexnord's stockholders. ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), requires compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. Generally, compensation cost is measured based on the estimated grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued. Compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service period, generally as the awards vest.
For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recognized $5.4 million of stock-based compensation expense. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recognized $2.3 million of stock-based compensation expense. As of June 30, 2017, there was $40.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested equity awards that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.
Stock Options
During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, the Company granted stock options to executive officers and certain other employees, which vest over a weighted-average term of three years. The fair value of each option granted under the Plan during the three months ended June 30, 2017 was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes valuation model utilizing the following assumptions:
Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 | |
Expected option term (in years) | 6.5 |
Expected volatility factor | 31% |
Weighted-average risk-free interest rate | 1.99% |
Expected dividend rate | 0.0% |
21
The Company estimates the expected term of stock options granted based on the midpoint between when the options vest and when they expire. The Company uses the simplified method to determine the expected term, as management does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term due to the limited period of time its common stock shares has been publicly traded. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on historical volatility. The weighted-average risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant. Management assumes expected dividends of zero. The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted under the Plan during the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $8.10.
A summary of stock option activity during the first three months of fiscal 2018 and 2017 is as follows:

Restricted Stock Units
During the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company granted restricted stock units ("RSUs") to its non-employee directors and certain employees. RSUs granted during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 generally vest ratably over three years. The fair value of each award is determined based on the Company's closing stock price on the date of grant. A summary of RSU activity during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

Performance Stock Units
The Company grants performance stock units (“PSUs”) to its executive officers and certain other employees. PSUs have a three-year performance period and are earned and vest, subject to continued employment, based in part on performance relative to metrics determined by the Compensation Committee. The number of PSUs earned, which can range between 0% and 200% of the target awards granted depending on the Company's actual performance during the three-year performance period, will be satisfied with Rexnord common stock. A summary of PSU activity during the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

The fair value of the portion of PSUs with vesting based on free cash flow conversion is determined based on the Company's closing common stock price on the date of grant. The fair value of the portion of PSUs with vesting based on relative total shareholder return is determined utilizing the Monte Carlo simulation model and the weighted-average fair value of awards granted during the three months ended June 30, 2017 was $31.25. Assumptions used to determine the fair value of each PSU were based on historical data and standard industry valuation practices and methodology. The following weighted-average assumptions were used for the PSUs granted during the three months ended June 30, 2017:
Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 | |
Expected volatility factor | 31% |
Weighted-average risk-free interest rate | 1.45% |

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
General
Rexnord is a growth-oriented, multi-platform industrial company with what we believe are leading market shares and highly-trusted brands that serve a diverse array of global end markets. Our heritage of innovation and specification have allowed us to provide highly-engineered, mission-critical solutions to customers for decades and affords us the privilege of having long-term, valued relationships with market leaders. We operate our Company in a disciplined way and the Rexnord Business System (“RBS”) is our operating philosophy. Grounded in the spirit of continuous improvement, RBS creates a scalable, process-based framework that focuses on driving superior customer satisfaction and financial results by targeting world-class operating performance throughout all aspects of our business.
The following information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, along with Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.
Fiscal Year
Our fiscal year ends on March 31. Throughout this MD&A, we refer to the period from April 1, 2017 through June 30, 2017 as the “first quarter of fiscal 2018” or the “first quarter ended June 30, 2017.” Similarly, we refer to the period from April 1, 2016 through June 30, 2016 as the “first quarter of fiscal 2017” or the “first quarter ended June 30, 2016.”
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Refer to Item 7, MD&A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017 for information with respect to our critical accounting policies, which we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management. Except for the items reported below, management believes that as of June 30, 2017 and during the period from April 1, 2017 through June 30, 2017, there has been no material change to this information.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Item 1, Note 1 Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies regarding recent accounting pronouncements.
Acquisition
On June 1, 2016, we acquired Cambridge International Holdings Corp. ("Cambridge") for a cash purchase price of $213.4 million. Cambridge, with operations in Cambridge, Maryland and Matamoros, Mexico, is one of the world's largest suppliers of metal conveying and engineered woven metal solutions, primarily used in food processing end markets, as well as in architectural, packaging and filtration applications. The acquisition of Cambridge expanded our presence in consumer-driven end markets in the Process & Motion Control platform. Our results of operations include the acquired operations subsequent to June 1, 2016.
Restructuring
During fiscal 2018, we continued to execute various restructuring initiatives focused on driving efficiencies, reducing operating costs by modifying our footprint to reflect changes in the markets we serve and the impact of acquisitions on our overall manufacturing capacity, and refining our overall product portfolio. We expect these initiatives to continue, which may result in further workforce reductions, lease termination costs, and other facility rationalization costs, including the impairment or accelerated depreciation of assets. At this time, our full repositioning plan is preliminary and related expenses are not yet estimable. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, restructuring charges totaled $2.7 million and $5.6 million, respectively. Refer to Note 3, Restructuring and Other Similar Charges for further information.
Product Line Divestiture
During fiscal 2016, we decided to exit the non-strategic Rodney Hunt Fontaine (“RHF”) flow control gate product line. We completed the exit of the RHF product line in fiscal 2017. For purposes of comparison in the following discussion of results of operations, the RHF net sales and loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2016 were $6.5 million and $4.5 million, respectively, and were both zero in the three months ended June 30, 2017.

Consolidated | $ | 487.7 | $ | 471.8 | $ | 15.9 | 3.4 | % | ||||||
Process & Motion Control
Process & Motion Control net sales increased 9% year over year to $287.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Core sales increased 5% year over year, excluding a 5% increase from last year’s acquisition of Cambridge and a 1% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation. The increase in core sales is the result of favorable demand trends across the majority of our served end markets.
Water Management
Water Management net sales were $200.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018, a decline of 4% year over year. Core sales were flat year over year, excluding a 3% adverse impact associated with last year’s exit of the RHF product line and a 1% unfavorable impact from foreign currency translation. Increased demand in our nonresidential construction end markets was offset by a year-over-year decline in sales to our global water and wastewater infrastructure end markets due to the timing of project shipments.

Process & Motion Control
Process & Motion Control income from operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was $39.7 million, or 13.8% of net sales. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales increased by 410 basis points year over year, primarily due to the increase in core sales, lower amortization expenses, and benefits resulting from RBS-led productivity improvements.
Water Management
Water Management income from operations was $27.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2018, or 13.8% of net sales. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales increased by 290 basis points year over year, as lower restructuring and depreciation and amortization expenses were only partially offset by incremental costs incurred in connection with our innovation and market expansion initiatives.
Corporate
Corporate expenses were $12.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 and $9.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The increase in corporate expenses is primarily associated with higher year-over-year compensation-related costs (primarily stock-based compensation) relative to the first quarter of fiscal 2017.
27
Interest expense, net
Interest expense, net was $20.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $23.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The decrease in interest expense is a result of the impact of lower outstanding borrowings in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 following a $95.0 million prepayment made on our term loan during the first quarter of fiscal 2017 and a $195.0 million prepayment made on our term loan in the third quarter of fiscal 2017. See Item 1, Note 11 Long-Term Debt for more information.
Other expense, net
Other expense, net for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 consisted of foreign currency transaction losses of $0.5 million. Other expense, net for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 consisted of foreign currency transaction losses of $0.8 million, a $0.1 million loss on the sale of property, plant and equipment and other miscellaneous expenses of $1.0 million.
Provision (Benefit) for income taxes
Income tax provision was $8.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to an income tax benefit of $5.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was 23.6% versus (45.4)% in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was below the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the recognition of excess U.S. foreign tax credits, the recognition of certain foreign branch related losses for U.S. income tax purposes and the recognition of certain previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the lapse of the applicable statutes of limitations. The income tax benefit recognized on income before income taxes for the first quarter of fiscal 2017 was primarily due to excess tax benefits associated with share-based payments, the recognition of a worthless stock deduction for U.S. income tax purposes relating to an insolvent foreign subsidiary and the recognition of excess U.S. foreign tax credits.
On a quarterly basis, we review and analyze our valuation allowances associated with deferred tax assets relating to certain foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards. In conjunction with this analysis, we weigh both positive and negative evidence for purposes of determining the proper balances of such valuation allowances. Future changes to the balances of these valuation allowances, as a result of our continued review and analysis, could result in a material impact to the financial statements for such period of change.
Net income attributable to Rexnord common shareholders
Net income attributable to Rexnord common shareholders for the first quarter of fiscal 2018 was $20.7 million, compared to net income of $18.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, as a result of the factors described above. Diluted net income per share attributable to Rexnord common shareholders was $0.20 in the first quarter of fiscal 2018, as compared to $0.18 in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Diluted net income per share of common stock in the first quarter of fiscal 2018 also reflects the effect of $5.8 million of dividends paid on shares of cumulative preferred stock.

Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement and not replace financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Core sales
Core sales excludes the impact of acquisitions (such as the Cambridge acquisition), divestitures (such as the RHF product line exit) and foreign currency translation. Management believes that core sales facilitates easier and more meaningful comparisons of our net sales performance with prior and future periods and to our peers. We exclude the effect of acquisitions and divestitures because the nature, size and number of acquisitions and divestitures can vary dramatically from period to period and between us and our peers, and can also obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult. We exclude the effect of foreign currency translation from this measure because the volatility of currency translation is not under management's control.
EBITDA
EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is presented because it is an important supplemental measure of performance and it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. EBITDA is also presented and compared by analysts and investors in evaluating our ability to meet debt service obligations. Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because EBITDA is calculated before recurring cash charges, including interest expense and taxes, and is not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of the business, it should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to invest in the growth of the business.
28
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA (as described below in “Covenant Compliance”) is an important measure because, under our credit agreement, our ability to incur certain types of acquisition debt and certain types of subordinated debt, make certain types of acquisitions or asset exchanges, operate our business and make dividends or other distributions, all of which will impact our financial performance, is impacted by our Adjusted EBITDA, as our lenders measure our performance with a net first lien leverage ratio by comparing our senior secured bank indebtedness to our Adjusted EBITDA (see “Covenant Compliance” for additional discussion of this ratio, including a reconciliation to our net income). We reported net income available to Rexnord common shareholders in the three months ended June 30, 2017 of $20.7 million and Adjusted EBITDA for the same period of $86.0 million. See “Covenant Compliance” for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income.
Covenant Compliance
Our credit agreement, which governs our senior secured credit facilities, contains, among other provisions, restrictive covenants regarding indebtedness, payments and distributions, mergers and acquisitions, asset sales, affiliate transactions, capital expenditures and the maintenance of certain financial ratios. Payment of borrowings under the credit agreement may be accelerated if there is an event of default. Events of default include the failure to pay principal and interest when due, a material breach of a representation or warranty, certain non-payments or defaults under other indebtedness, covenant defaults, events of bankruptcy and a change of control. Certain covenants contained in the credit agreement restrict our ability to take certain actions, such as incurring additional debt or making acquisitions, if we are unable to meet certain maximum net first lien leverage ratios of 7.75 to 1.0 and, with respect to our revolving facility, also require us to remain at or below a maximum total net leverage ratio of 6.75 to 1.0 as of the end of each fiscal quarter (it was 3.2 to 1.0 at June 30, 2017). Failure to comply with these covenants could limit our long-term growth prospects by hindering our ability to borrow under the revolver, to obtain future debt and/or to make acquisitions.
“Adjusted EBITDA” is the term we use to describe EBITDA as defined and adjusted in our credit agreement, which is net income, adjusted for the items summarized in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors, excluding non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses or gains. In view of our debt level, it is also provided to aid investors in understanding our compliance with our debt covenants. Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP, and our use of the term Adjusted EBITDA varies from others in our industry. This measure should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from operations or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (a) our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expenses, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt; (d) tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; (e) any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; or (f) the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we and the lenders under our credit agreement may not consider indicative of our ongoing operations. In particular, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA allows us to add back certain non-cash, non-operating or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income, even though these are expenses that may recur, vary greatly and are difficult to predict and can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results.
In addition, certain of these expenses can represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other corporate purposes. Further, although not included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA below, the measure may at times allow us to add estimated cost savings and operating synergies related to operational changes ranging from acquisitions or dispositions to restructurings, and/or exclude one-time transition expenditures that we anticipate we will need to incur to realize cost savings before such savings have occurred.
The calculation of Adjusted EBITDA under our credit agreement as of June 30, 2017 is presented in the table below. However, the results of such calculation could differ in the future based on the different types of adjustments that may be included in such respective calculations at the time.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are available cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operations, borrowing availability of up to $265.0 million under our revolving credit facility, and availability of up to $100.0 million under our accounts receivable securitization program.
As of June 30, 2017, we had $516.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $346.1 million of additional borrowing capacity ($250.7 million of available borrowings under our revolving credit facility and $95.4 million available under our accounts receivable securitization program). As of June 30, 2017, the available borrowings under our credit facility and accounts receivable securitization were reduced by $18.9 million due to outstanding letters of credit. As of March 31, 2017, we had $490.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and approximately $345.8 million of additional borrowing capacity ($250.4 million of available borrowings under our revolving credit facility and $95.4 million available under our accounts receivable securitization program). Both our revolving credit facility and accounts receivable securitization program are available to fund our working capital requirements, capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes.
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities was $37.0 million and $19.6 million in the first three months of fiscal 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase in cash provided by operating activities is primarily driven by incremental profit generated from higher sales, benefits from lower trade working capital, and lower cash interest payments.
Cash used for investing activities was $6.7 million in the first three months of fiscal 2018 compared to $225.5 million in the first three months of fiscal 2017. Investing activities in the first three months of fiscal 2018 included $6.9 million of capital expenditures. Investing activities during the first three months of fiscal 2017 included $214.4 million of net cash associated with the acquisition of Cambridge and $12.0 million of capital expenditures.
Cash used for financing activities was $9.0 million in the first three months of fiscal 2018 compared to cash used for financing activities of $94.1 million in the first three months of fiscal 2017. During the first three months of fiscal 2018, we utilized $4.2 million of cash for the payment of outstanding debt and $5.8 million for the payment of preferred stock dividends. The first three months of fiscal 2018 also includes $1.0 million of cash proceeds associated with stock option exercises. During the first three months of fiscal 2017, we utilized $99.9 million of cash to prepay amounts due on our then-outstanding term loans. The first three months of fiscal 2017 also includes $6.1 million of cash proceeds associated with stock option exercises.
Indebtedness
As of June 30, 2017 we had $1,619.1 million of total indebtedness outstanding as follows (in millions):

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
We are exposed to market risk during the normal course of business from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The exposure to these risks is managed through a combination of normal operating and financing activities and derivative financial instruments in the form of foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and interest rate caps to cover certain known foreign currency transactional risks, as well as identified risks due to interest rate fluctuations.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates relates primarily to our foreign operations. For our foreign operations, exchange rates impact the U.S. Dollar ("USD") value of our reported earnings, our investments in the subsidiaries and the intercompany transactions with the subsidiaries. See “Risk Factors-Our international operations are subject to uncertainties, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017.
Approximately 30% of our sales originated outside of the United States in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into USD at the end of the fiscal period using the average exchange rates in effect during the period. Consequently, as the value of the USD changes relative to the currencies of our major markets, particularly those that are Euro-based, our reported results may vary significantly.
Fluctuations in currency exchange rates also impact the USD amount of our stockholders' equity. The assets and liabilities of our non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated into USD at the exchange rates in effect at the end of the fiscal periods. As of June 30, 2017, stockholders' equity increased by $17.4 million from March 31, 2017 as a result of foreign currency translation adjustments. If the USD had strengthened by 10% as of June 30, 2017, the result would have decreased stockholders' equity by approximately $54.5 million.
As we continue to expand our business globally, our success will depend, in large part, on our ability to anticipate and effectively manage these and other risks associated with our international operations. However, any of these factors could adversely affect our international operations and, consequently, our operating results.
At June 30, 2017, we had entered into certain foreign currency forward contracts. These foreign currency forward contracts were not accounted for as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”) and as such were marked to market through earnings. We believe that a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the foreign currency exchange rates would have resulted in a $4.0 million increase in the fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts as of June 30, 2017.
Interest Rate Risk
We utilize a combination of short-term and long-term debt to finance our operations and are exposed to interest rate risk on these debt obligations.
A substantial portion of our indebtedness, including indebtedness under the senior secured credit facilities, bears interest at rates that fluctuate with changes in certain short-term prevailing interest rates. As of June 30, 2017, our outstanding borrowings under the term loan facility were $1,581.1 million (net of $17.2 million of unamortized original issue discount and debt issuance costs) and bore a weighted-average effective interest rate of 4.05%, determined as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) (subject to a 1.0% floor) plus an applicable margin of 2.75%. The weighted-average interest rate for the period ended June 30, 2017, was 3.89% determined as LIBOR (subject to a 1.0% floor) plus an applicable margin of 2.75%.
In fiscal 2014, we entered into three forward-starting interest rate swaps to hedge the variability in future cash flows associated with a portion of the variable-rate term loans. The forward-starting interest rate swaps convert $650.0 million of the variable-rate term loans to a weighted average fixed interest rate of 2.55% plus the applicable margin (and inclusive of a 1% LIBOR floor). Those interest rate swaps became effective beginning on September 28, 2015 with a maturity of September 27, 2018. In fiscal 2015, we entered into two interest rate caps in order to mitigate exposure to increasing interest rates on variable-rate interest loans. The interest rate caps were effective beginning as of October 24, 2014, with a maturity of October 24, 2018, and cap the interest on $750.0 million of our variable-rate interest loans at 3%, plus the applicable margin. The existing interest rate swaps and interest rate caps together have effectively hedged approximately 88% of our outstanding variable rate term loans with a weighted average interest rate that cannot exceed 2.79% plus the applicable margin of 2.75%.
Our net income would be affected by changes in market interest rates on our variable-rate obligations (which comprises approximately 98% of our total indebtedness). As discussed above, our term loan facilities are subject to a 1% LIBOR floor. Therefore, a 100 basis point increase in the June 30, 2017 market interest rate would increase interest expense under our term loan facility by approximately $9.5 million on an annual basis. An additional 100 basis point increase in the LIBOR rate would add approximately $7.2 million of annual interest expense under our term loan facility.

ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation as of June 30, 2017, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner allowing timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As such, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the period covered by this report.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of the changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 2. | UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS |
In fiscal 2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") authorizing the repurchase of up to $200.0 million of the Company's common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The Repurchase Program does not require the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and does not specify the timing of purchases or the prices to be paid; however, the program will continue until the maximum amount of dollars authorized have been expended or until it is modified or terminated by the Board. No shares were repurchased during the first quarter of fiscal 2018. A total of approximately $160.0 million remained of the existing repurchase authority at June 30, 2017.
