NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 29, 2013

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet of Regal Beloit Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 29, 2012, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 29, 2013 and for the three and six months ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on March 26, 2013.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial results have been made. Except as otherwise discussed, such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 29, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending December 28, 2013.

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company uses estimates in accounting for, among other items, allowance for doubtful accounts; excess and obsolete inventory; share-based compensation; acquisitions; product warranty obligations, pension assets and liabilities, derivative fair values, goodwill impairment, health care, retirement benefits, rebates and incentives, litigation claims and contingencies, including environmental matters, and income taxes. The Company accounts for changes to estimates and assumptions when warranted by factually based experience.

The Company operates on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31.

As of the beginning of 2013, the Company adopted new guidance that requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. This information enables users of an entity's financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements with certain financial instruments and derivative instruments. This new guidance is applicable to the Company's derivative instruments. See Note 13 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

As of the beginning of 2013, the Company adopted new guidance that requires footnote disclosures on a prospective basis regarding the changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss by component and the line items affected in the statements of income. See Note 4 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

As of the beginning of 2013, the Company changed its inventory valuation method for the finished goods of recently acquired North American businesses to the LIFO method from the FIFO method. The Company believes the change to the LIFO method is preferable because it will improve matching of current costs with revenues when there is volatility in the cost of raw materials, and is consistent with the method used for the majority of the Company’s other North American finished goods inventory. Prior period consolidated financial statements have not been retrospectively adjusted because the impact of the change is immaterial. The cumulative effect of this change was immaterial.

2. OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Inventories

Inventories are valued at last-in, first-out (LIFO) for approximately 51% and 31% of the Company’s inventory as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively.

3. ACQUISITIONS

The results of operations for acquired businesses are included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements from the dates of acquisition. Acquisition related expenses, which were recorded in operating expenses, were $2.9 million and $3.2 million for the three and six months ended June 29, 2013, respectively. Acquisition expenses were immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

2013 Acquisitions

2012 Acquisitions

On April 30, 2012, the Company acquired Tecnojar, a Mexico based electrical products company, for $1.6 million. Tecnojar is reported as a part of the Company's Electrical segment.

In-process research and development projects are estimated to be completed by the end of 2015 and amortization will begin upon project completion.

7. DEBT AND BANK CREDIT FACILITIES

The Company’s indebtedness as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012 was as follows (in millions):



	June 29, 2013			December 29, 2012
Senior notes	$	750.0		$	750.0

At June 29, 2013, the Company had $750.0 million of senior notes (the “Notes”) outstanding. Details on the senior notes are (in millions):



	Principal		Interest Rate	Maturity
Floating Rate Series 2007A	$	150.0	Floating ⁽¹⁾	August 2014
Floating Rate Series 2007A	100.0		Floating ⁽¹⁾	August 2017
Fixed Rate Series 2011A	100.0		4.1%	July 2018
Fixed Rate Series 2011A	230.0		4.8 to 5.0%	July 2021
Fixed Rate Series 2011A	170.0		4.9 to 5.1%	July 2023
	$	750.0


(1)	Interest rates vary as LIBOR varies. At June 29, 2013, the interest rate was 0.9%.

In 2008, the Company entered into a Term Loan Agreement (“Term Loan”) with certain financial institutions, whereby it borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $165.0 million. Prior to 2013, the Company repaid $110.0 million of the Term Loan. The Term Loan matured in June 2013 and the final $55.0 million payment was made in the quarter ended June 29, 2013.

The Company has a $500.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) that matures in June 2016. The Facility permits the Company to borrow at interest rates based upon a margin above LIBOR. The margin varies with the ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA, net of specified cash, as defined in the Facility. These interest rates also vary as LIBOR varies. The Company pays a commitment fee on the unused amount of the Facility, which also varies with the ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA. At June 29, 2013, the Company had $3.0 million outstanding on the Facility with a weighted average interest rate of 1.4%. At June 29, 2013, the Company had $22.6 million of standby letters of credit issued under the Facility and $474.4 million of available borrowing capacity under the Facility.

Based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities, credit risks, and terms, which are classified as Level 2 inputs, the approximate fair value of the Company's debt was $788.8 million and $859.6 million as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively.

At June 29, 2013, other notes payable of $15.6 million were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 1.9%.

The Notes and the Facility require the Company to meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. The Company was in compliance with all financial debt covenants as of June 29, 2013.

The Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk. (See also Note 13 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

8. PENSION PLANS

The Company’s net periodic defined benefit pension cost is comprised of the following components (in millions):



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 29, 2013			June 30, 2012			June 29, 2013			June 30, 2012
Service cost	$	0.7		$	0.6		$	1.4		$	1.2
Interest cost	1.8			1.8			3.6			3.7
Expected return on plan assets	(2.0		)	(1.9		)	(4.0		)	(3.7		)
Amortization of prior service cost and net actuarial loss	1.0			1.0			2.1			1.9
Net periodic benefit expense	$	1.5		$	1.5		$	3.1		$	3.1

The estimated net actuarial loss and prior service cost for defined benefit pension plans that will be amortized from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss into net periodic benefit cost during the 2013 fiscal year is $4.0 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

During the first six months of 2013 and 2012, the Company contributed $1.1 million and $3.9 million, respectively, to defined benefit pension plans. The Company expects to make contributions of $3.1 million in 2013. The Company contributed a total of $11.7 million in 2012. The assumptions used in the valuation of the Company’s pension plans and in the target investment allocation have remained the same as those disclosed in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A filed on March 26, 2013.

9. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company recognized approximately $3.1 million and $2.4 million in share-based compensation expense for the three month period ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively. Share based compensation expense for the six month period ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012 was $5.4 million and $4.5 million, respectively. The total excess income tax benefit recognized relating to share-based compensation for the six months ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012 was approximately $0.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The Company recognizes compensation expense on grants of share-based compensation awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each award. As of June 29, 2013, total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards was approximately $28.6 million, net of estimated forfeitures, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 2.7 years.

On April 29, 2013, the Company's shareholders approved the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan ("2013 Plan"). The 2013 Plan authorizes the issuance of 3.5 million shares of common stock for equity-based awards, and terminates any further grants under prior equity plans.

Approximately 3.0 million shares were available for future grant or payment under the 2013 Plan at June 29, 2013.

Share-based Incentive Awards

The Company uses several forms of share-based incentive awards, including non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). All grants are made at prices equal to the fair market value of the stock on the grant dates, and expire 10 years from the grant date.

The majority of the Company’s annual share-based incentive awards are made in the fiscal second quarter. For the six months ended June 29, 2013, and June 30, 2012, respectively, 173,825 and 255,225 share-based incentive awards were granted. The per share weighted average fair value of share-based incentive awards granted during those respective periods was $23.01 and $22.45.

The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes valuation related to grants were as follows:



	June 29, 2013		June 30, 2012
Risk-free interest rate	1.1	%	1.3	%
Expected life (years)	7.0		7.0
Expected volatility	38.5	%	37.6	%
Expected dividend yield	1.2	%	1.2	%

A summary of share-based awards (options and SARs) as of June 29, 2013 follows below. Forfeitures of share-based awards during the six months ended June 29, 2013 were immaterial.



Number of Shares	Shares	Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in millions)
Outstanding	1,620,215	$	55.89	6.6	$	16.7
Exercisable	812,520	48.13		4.9	14.5

Restricted Stock Awards, Restricted Stock Units and Performance Units

The Company also grants equity-based awards including restricted stock (“RSA”) awards, restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards and performance unit (“PSU”) awards. Such awards are valued using the closing price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant or, for PSUs, based on a Monte Carlo simulation value. Restrictions generally lapse three years after the date of grant (or one year in the case of certain RSA grants to directors).

Changes in restricted stock awards for the six months ended June 29, 2013 were as follows:



	Shares		Weighted Average Value
	Shares		Weighted Average Value
Unvested RSUs, RSAs and PSUs, December 29, 2012	199,941		$	64.92
Granted	147,705		62.97
Vested	(32,535	)	61.41
Forfeited	(5,615	)	63.59
Unvested RSUs, RSAs and PSUs, June 29, 2013	309,496		$	64.39

10. INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 29, 2013 was 25.0% versus 30.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 29, 2013 was 24.1% versus 28.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The change in the second quarter effective rate was primarily driven by completion of the tax integration of the EPC acquisition and a prior year benefit attributable to qualification in China for a tax incentive, compared to second quarter 2012. The change in the six month effective rate was driven by the same factors as for the second quarter as well as the by the 2012 research and development retroactive reinstatement which was recorded in the first quarter of 2013. The lower effective rate as compared to the 35.0% statutory Federal income tax rate is driven by lower foreign tax rates.

As of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, the Company had approximately $4.6 million and $5.7 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits, all of which would affect its effective tax rate if recognized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. U.S. federal tax returns from 2009 through 2012 and various state tax returns remain subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities.

11. EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS")

The numerator for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is Net Income Attributable to Regal Beloit Corporation. The denominator is computed as follows (in millions):



	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended
	June 29, 2013	June 30, 2012	June 29, 2013	June 30, 2012
Denominator for basic EPS (weighted average)	45.0	41.7	45.0	41.6
Effect of dilutive securities	0.3	0.3	0.3	0.4
Denominator for diluted EPS	45.3	42.0	45.3	42.0

The “Effect of dilutive securities” represents the dilution impact of equity awards. For the three months ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, there were 0.7 million and 0.6 million options where the exercise price was above the average market price, and which were excluded from the calculation of the effect of dilutive shares as the effect of such options was anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, there were 0.6 million and 0.6 million shares, respectively, where the exercise price was above the average market price and which were excluded from the calculation of the effect of dilutive shares as the effect of such options was anti-dilutive.

12. CONTINGENCIES

One of the Company’s subsidiaries that it acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units marketed by a third party. These claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. Based on the current facts, the Company does not believe these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on its interim consolidated financial statements as a whole.

The Company is, from time to time, party to litigation that arises in the normal course of its business operations, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, employment and other litigation matters. The Company’s products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject the Company to claims that the use of its products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. The Company accrues for exposures in amounts that it believes are adequate, and the Company does not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit individually or collectively will have a material effect on the Company's financial position, its results of operations or its cash flows.

The Company recognizes the cost associated with its standard warranty on its products at the time of sale. The amount recognized is based on historical experience.

The following is a reconciliation of the changes in accrued warranty costs for the three and six months ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012 (in millions):



	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 29, 2013			June 30, 2012			June 29, 2013			June 30, 2012
Beginning balance	$	21.6		$	25.0		$	20.9		$	24.2
Payments	(4.2		)	(8.6		)	(8.5		)	(13.4		)

Translation Adjustments	(0.1		)	(0.1		)	(0.1		)	(0.1		)
Ending balance	$	21.9		$	26.0		$	21.9		$	26.0

13. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are commodity price, currency exchange and interest rate risk. Forward contracts on certain commodities are entered into to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of materials used in the Company’s manufacturing process. Forward contracts on certain currencies are entered into to manage forecasted cash flows in certain foreign currencies. Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s floating rate borrowings.

The Company must recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company designates commodity forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases of

commodities, currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency cash flows and interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of forecasted LIBOR-based interest payments. There were no significant collateral deposits on derivative financial instruments as of June 29, 2013.

Cash flow hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income or loss and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or changes in market value of derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized in current earnings. All derivative instruments used by the Company impact operating cash flows.

At June 29, 2013, the Company had $(1.9) million, net of tax, of derivative losses on closed hedge instruments in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“AOCI”) that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At December 29, 2012, the Company had $(0.3) million, net of tax, of derivative losses on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that was realized in earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

As of June 29, 2013, the Company had outstanding the following commodity forward contracts (with maturities extending through September 2014) to hedge forecasted purchases of commodities (notional amounts expressed in terms of the dollar value of the hedged item in millions):



	Notional Amount
Copper	$	156.4
Aluminum	8.9

As of June 29, 2013, the Company had outstanding the following currency forward contracts (with maturities extending through December 2015) to hedge forecasted foreign currency cash flows (in millions):



	Notional Amount
Mexican Peso	$	174.9
Chinese Renminbi	93.3
Indian Rupee	42.2
Euro	11.4
Thai Baht	8.9
Australian Dollar	3.8

As of June 29, 2013, the total notional amount of the Company’s receive-variable/pay-fixed interest rate swaps was $250.0 million (with maturities extending to August 2017).

Fair values of derivative instruments as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012 were (in millions):

The Company's commodity and currency derivative contracts are subject to master netting agreements with the respective counterparties which allow the Company to net settle transactions with a single net amount payable by one party to another party. The Company has elected to present the derivative assets and derivative liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets on a gross basis for the periods ended June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012.

The following table presents the derivative assets and derivative liabilities presented on a net basis under enforceable master netting agreements (in millions):

14. FAIR VALUE

The Company uses a three-tier hierarchy to assess the inputs used to measure the fair value of financial assets and liabilities.



Level 1	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or
	Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or
	Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability
Level 3	Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

The Company uses the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The fair value of the Company's cash equivalents, term deposits, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated book value as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively, due to their short-term nature. See Note 7 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for disclosure of the approximate fair value of the Company's debt at June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012.

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012 (in millions):



	June 29, 2013		December 29, 2012		Classification
Assets:
Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets:
Derivative Currency Contracts	$	9.7	$	6.8	Level 2
Derivative Commodity Contracts	2.9		4.2		Level 2

Derivative Currency Contracts	1.7		0.3		Level 2
Derivative Commodity Contracts	0.2		—		Level 2
Other Noncurrent Liabilities:
Deferred Contingent Purchase Price	13.7		21.1		Level 3

The Company’s derivative contracts are valued at fair value using the market or income approaches. The Company measures the fair value of foreign currency exchange contracts using Level 2 inputs based on observable spot and forward rates in active markets. The Company measures the fair value of commodity contracts using Level 2 inputs through observable market transactions in active markets provided by financial institutions. The Company measures the fair value of interest rate swaps using Level 2 inputs in an income approach for valuation based on expected interest rate yield curves over the remaining duration of the interest rate swaps. During the six months ended June 29, 2013, there were no transfers between classification Levels 1, 2 or 3.

The table below sets forth a summary of changes in fair market value of the Company’s Level 3 liabilities for the three and six months ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012 (in millions):

The Level 3 liabilities described above are comprised entirely of the deferred contingent purchase price of the Company’s acquisitions and are measured using Level 3 inputs. The contingent consideration, payable in cash, is based upon sales or earnings before interest and income taxes for the acquired businesses for the applicable contingency period. The fair value of the contingent consideration is a Level 3 input; the measurement of which is derived using a probability weighted discounted cash flow analysis. The Company has estimated that the maximum contingent amount will be paid under all agreements so the key assumption is the estimated timing of the payments and the discount rates. The discounted cash flow utilized risk-based discount rates ranging from approximately 5.0% to 8.0%.

15. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As part of the consideration paid for the acquisition of certain assets of Elco S.p.A. on November 1, 2010, the Company assumed $22.3 million payable to an entity that is affiliated with its Elco Group B.V. joint venture partner resulting from a bankruptcy proceeding involving Elco S.p.A. During the first quarter of 2012, $5.3 million was paid by the Company. The final payment was made in the third quarter of 2012.

16. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On July 9, 2013, the Company announced its decision to cease operations in its Springfield, Missouri manufacturing facility which employs approximately 330 employees. This plant restructuring will transfer the manufacturing of motors and components to other Company facilities in the U.S. and Mexico over the next 18 months.

The Company expects to incur approximately $12.9 million in restructuring expenses associated with the transition.



ITEM 2.	MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Item 2 to “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” refer collectively to Regal Beloit Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Overview

Over the past several years, as part of our strategic growth plans, we have typically acquired multiple businesses in any given fiscal year. When we refer to the financial impact of the “recently acquired businesses,” we are referring to the results of operations of acquired businesses prior to the first anniversary of their acquisition.

On an ongoing basis, we focus on a variety of key indicators to monitor business performance. These indicators include organic and total sales growth (including volume and price components), gross profit margin, income from operations, net income and earnings per share, and measures to optimize the management of working capital, capital expenditures, cash flow and Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”). We monitor these indicators, as well as our corporate governance practices (including our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics), to ensure that we maintain business health and strong internal controls.

To achieve our financial objectives, we are focused on initiatives to drive and fund growth. We seek to capture significant opportunities for growth by identifying and meeting customer product needs within our core product categories, developing new products, and identifying category expansion opportunities. We meet these customer product needs through focused product research and development efforts as well as through a disciplined acquisition strategy. Our acquisition strategy emphasizes acquiring companies that offer market growth potential as a result of geographic base, technology or synergy opportunities. The cash flow needed to fund our growth is developed through continuous, corporate-wide initiatives to lower costs and increase effective asset utilization.

We also prioritize investments that generate higher return on capital. Our management team is compensated based on a modified Economic Value Added (“EVA”) program which reinforces capital allocation disciplines that drive increases in shareholder value. The key metrics in our program include total sales growth, organic sales growth, operating margin percentage, operating cash flow as a percent of net income, and ROIC.

We believe much of the U.S. economy remains in a period of uncertainty which we expect will continue to make the near-term operating environment challenging. In recent periods we have seen declines in sales of our products used in commercial, industrial and power generation. We expect slow economic growth and continued uncertainty about future economic conditions will continue to pressure our organic sales growth in these markets.

As the U.S. housing market recovers, we are experiencing stronger demand in our residential HVAC businesses. However, we continue to see increasing competition primarily on the basis of price and technology and we continue to see residential consumer preferences for standard products as opposed to energy-efficient products. In addition, customers periodically change suppliers to achieve cost savings, technology advantages, supplier diversity or for other reasons and the market shares of our customers may change due to product differentiation, pricing, service, quality or consumer preferences. All of these factors impact our sales of residential and commercial HVAC products. We anticipate these factors will combine to limit or reduce our organic revenue growth in the HVAC business by approximately $25 million over the next four quarters. However, revenue gains from other customers, new product sales or mix changes may offset some or all of the anticipated declines.

The average number of diluted shares was 45.3 million during the six months ended June 29, 2013 compared to 42.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal sources of liquidity are operating cash flow, committed credit lines and existing cash balances. In addition to operating income, other significant factors affect our liquidity including working capital levels, capital expenditures, dividends, acquisitions, availability of debt financing, and the ability to attract long-term capital on acceptable terms.

Cash flow provided by operating activities (“operating cash flow”) was $157.3 million for the six months ended June 29, 2013, a $47.1 million decrease from the six months ended June 30, 2012, primarily due to increased working capital.

Cash flow used in investing activities was $53.4 million for the six months ended June 29, 2013, an $81.6 million decrease from the six months ended June 30, 2012 primarily due to lower acquisitions in 2013. Capital expenditures were $47.2 million in the six months ended June 29, 2013 compared to $44.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012. Business acquisitions were $6.0 million for the six months ended June 29, 2013, compared to $95.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, driven by the 2012 acquisition of MGC.

Cash flow used in financing activities for the six months ended June 29, 2013 was $64.0 million compared to $20.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2012, primarily driven by the final $55.0 million repayment of our Term Loan.

Working capital was $1.1 billion at June 29, 2013 and $1.0 billion at December 29, 2012.

The following table presents selected financial information and ratios as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012 (in millions):



	June 29,		December 29,
	2013		2012
Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	414.4	$	375.3
Trade Receivables, Net	512.3		446.0

Working Capital	1,093.9		1,006.0
Current Ratio	2.9:1		2.9:1

A significant amount of operating income is earned in jurisdictions where it is deemed to be permanently reinvested. Our most prominent jurisdiction of operation is the U.S. We currently do not intend nor foresee a need to repatriate funds to the U.S., and no provision for U.S. income taxes has been made with respect to such earnings. It is expected that existing cash and cash equivalents available to the U.S., the cash generated by U.S. operations, committed credit lines as well as the expected ability to access the capital markets will be sufficient to fund U.S. operating and capital needs for at least the next twelve months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. There are no current trends, demands or uncertainties that are believed reasonably likely to require repatriation or to have a material impact on our ability to fund our U.S. operations.

At June 29, 2013, we had $750.0 million of senior notes (the “Notes”) outstanding. Details on the senior notes at June 29, 2013 were (in millions):



	Principal		Interest Rate	Maturity
Floating Rate Series 2007A	$	150.0	Floating (1)	August 2014
Floating Rate Series 2007A	100.0		Floating (1)	August 2017

Fixed Rate Series 2011A	170.0		4.9 to 5.1%	July 2023
	$	750.0

(1) Interest rates vary as LIBOR varies. At June 29, 2013, the interest rate was 0.9%.

In 2008, we entered into a Term Loan Agreement (“Term Loan”) with certain financial institutions, whereby we borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $165.0 million. Prior to 2013, we repaid $110.0 million of the Term Loan. The Term Loan matured in June 2013 and the final $55.0 million payment was made in the quarter ended June 29, 2013.

We also have a $500.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) that matures in June 2016. The Facility permits the Company to borrow at interest rates based upon a margin above LIBOR. The margin varies with the ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA as defined in the Facility. These interest rates also vary as LIBOR varies. We pay a commitment fee on the unused amount of the Facility, which also varies with the ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA. At June 29, 2013, we had $3.0 million outstanding on the Facility. At June 29, 2013, we had $22.6 million of standby letters of credit issued under the Facility and $474.4 million of available borrowing capacity under the Facility.

Based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities, credit risks, and terms, which are classified as Level 2 inputs, the approximate fair value of our debt was $788.8 million and $859.6 million as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively.

At June 29, 2013, other notes payable of approximately $15.6 million were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 1.9%.

The Notes and the Facility require us to meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. We were in compliance with all financial debt covenants as of June 29, 2013.

We have interest rate swap agreements to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk. (See also Note 13 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

Critical Accounting Policies

Our disclosures of critical accounting policies, which are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 29, 2012, have not materially changed since that report was filed.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk relating to our operations due to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices of purchased raw materials. We manage the exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating and financing activities and derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, commodity cash flow hedges and foreign currency forward exchange contracts. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to clearly defined policies and procedures, which strictly prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative purposes.

All qualified hedges are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with changes in fair value recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“AOCI”) in each accounting period. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value, if any, is recorded in earnings in the period of change.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk on certain of our short-term and long-term debt obligations used to finance our operations and acquisitions. At June 29, 2013, net of interest rate swaps, we had $501.9 million of fixed rate debt and $266.7 million of variable rate debt. As a result, interest rate changes in variable rate debt impact future earnings and cash flow assuming other factors are constant. We utilize interest rate swaps to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from exposure to interest rate risk on forecasted variable rate interest payments. We have LIBOR-based floating rate borrowings, which expose us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 10% change in the weighted average borrowing rate on outstanding variable rate debt at June 29, 2013 would result in an immaterial change in after-tax annualized earnings.

We entered into pay fixed/receive LIBOR-based floating interest rate swaps to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk. These interest rate swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges against forecasted LIBOR-based interest payments.

Foreign Currency Risk

We are also exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Our objective is to minimize our exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating activities and the utilization of foreign currency exchange contracts. We do not hedge our exposure to the translation of reported results of foreign subsidiaries from local currency to United States dollars.

As of June 29, 2013, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of $9.7 million, $1.3 million, $(2.8) million and $(1.7) million, are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Hedging Obligations (current), and Hedging Obligations (noncurrent), respectively. As of December 29, 2012, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of $6.8 million, $2.3 million, $(4.6) million, and $(0.3) million are recorded in Prepaid Expenses, Other Noncurrent Assets, Hedging Obligations (current), and Hedging Obligations, respectively. The unrealized gains on the effective portion of the contracts of $3.8 million net of tax, and $2.7 million net of tax, as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, was recorded in AOCI. At June 29, 2013, we had $0.7 million, net of tax, of currency gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At December 29, 2012, we had $0.1 million of derivative currency gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that were realized in 2012 earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

The following table quantifies the outstanding foreign exchange contracts intended to hedge non-U.S. dollar denominated receivables and payables and the corresponding impact on the value of these instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% appreciation/depreciation of their counter currency on June 29, 2013 (in millions):



						Gain (Loss) From
Currency	Notional Amount		Fair Value			10% Appreciation of Counter Currency		10% Depreciation of Counter Currency
Mexican Peso	$	174.9	$	7.0		$	17.5	$	(17.5	)
Chinese Renminbi	93.3		1.5			9.3		(9.3		)
Indian Rupee	42.2		(3.4		)	4.2		(4.2		)
Euro	11.4		0.4			1.1		(1.1		)
Thai Baht	8.9		0.6			0.9		(0.9		)
Australian Dollar	3.8		0.4			0.4		(0.4		)

Gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would be offset by gains and losses on the underlying forecasted non-U.S. dollar denominated cash flows.

Commodity Price Risk

We periodically enter into commodity hedging transactions to reduce the impact of changing prices for certain commodities such as copper and aluminum based upon forecasted purchases of such commodities. The majority of these transactions are designated as cash flow hedges and the contract terms of commodity hedge instruments generally mirror those of the hedged item, providing a high degree of risk reduction and correlation.

Derivative commodity assets (liabilities) of $2.9 million, $0.1 million, $(19.3) million and $(0.2) million were recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Hedging Obligations (current) and Hedging Obligations (noncurrent), respectively, at June 29, 2013. Derivative commodity assets (liabilities) of $4.2 million, $0.2 million and $(1.7) were recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets and Hedging Obligations (current), respectively, at December 29, 2012. The unrealized gain (loss) on the effective portion of the contracts of $(10.1) million net of tax and $1.5 million net of tax, as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively, was recorded in AOCI. At June 29, 2013, we had $(2.6) million, net of tax, of derivative commodity losses on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At December 29, 2012, there was $(0.2) million, net of tax, of derivative commodity losses on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that were realized in 2012 earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

The following table quantifies the outstanding commodity contracts intended to hedge raw material commodity prices and the corresponding impact on the value of these instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% appreciation/depreciation of their prices on June 29, 2013 (in millions):



						Gain (Loss) From
Commodity	Notional Amount		Fair Value			10% Appreciation of Commodity Prices		10% Depreciation of Commodity Prices
Copper	$	156.4	$	(15.7	)	$	15.6	$	(15.6	)
Aluminum	8.9		(0.8		)	0.9		(0.9		)

Gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would be offset by the actual prices of the commodities.

The net AOCI balance of $(25.1) million loss at June 29, 2013 includes $(13.7) million of net current deferred losses expected to be realized in the next twelve months.

Counterparty Risk

We are exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to various financial agreements, including our interest rate swap agreements, foreign currency exchange contracts and commodity hedging transactions. We manage exposure to counterparty credit risk by limiting our counterparties to major international banks and financial institutions meeting established credit guidelines and continually monitoring their compliance with the credit guidelines. We do not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk. We do not anticipate non-performance by our counterparties, but cannot provide assurances.
