Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(in millions, except share and per share data)

1. Background and Basis of Presentation

Hillenbrand, Inc. (“Hillenbrand”) is a global diversified industrial company that makes and sells premium business-to-business products and services for a wide variety of industries.  We strive to provide superior return for our shareholders, exceptional value for our customers, and great professional opportunities for our people through deployment of the Hillenbrand Operating Model (the “HOM”). The HOM is a consistent and repeatable framework designed to produce sustainable and predictable results.  The HOM describes our mission, vision, values, and leader’s mindset; uses our management practices in Strategy Management, Segmentation, Lean, Talent Development, and Acquisitions; and prescribes three steps (Understand, Focus and Grow)to make our businesses both bigger and better.  Our goal is to continue developing Hillenbrand as a world-class global diversified industrial company. Hillenbrand is composed of two segments:  the Process Equipment Group and Batesville^®.  The Process Equipment Group businesses design, develop, manufacture, and service highly engineered industrial equipment around the world.  Batesville is a recognized leader in the North American death care industry.  “Hillenbrand,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar words refer to Hillenbrand and its subsidiaries.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hillenbrand and its subsidiaries.  They also include two minor subsidiaries where the Company’s ownership percentage is less than 100%.  The Company’s fiscal year ends on September 30.  Unless otherwise stated, references to years relate to fiscal years. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2016 presentation.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements and therefore do not include all information required in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).  The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as, and should be read in conjunction with, the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2015, as filed with the SEC.  The September 30, 2015 Consolidated Balance Sheet included in this Form 10-Q was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for a year-end balance sheet included in Form 10-K.  In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations and cash flow as of the dates and for the periods presented.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Examples of such estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition under the percentage-of-completion method and the establishment of reserves related to customer rebates, doubtful accounts, warranties, early-pay discounts, inventories, income taxes, litigation, self-insurance, and progress toward achievement of performance criteria under the incentive compensation programs.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2015.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-8, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations.  Under ASU 2014-8, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations.  ASU 2014-8 became effective and was adopted for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2015.  The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

6

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted on October 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.  ASU 2014-12 states that a performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition.  ASU 2014-12 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-12 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items. ASU 2015-01 eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The new standard amends the consolidation guidance in ASC 810 and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required under current generally accepted accounting principles. ASU 2015-02 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest. ASU 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest: Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. This standard permits an entity to defer and present debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements as an asset and to subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. These new standards do not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs. ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software. ASU 2015-05 helps entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement by providing guidance as to whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software. ASU 2015-05 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-05 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330).Under current FASB standards, an entity is required to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. ASU 2015-11 requires an entity to measure inventory within the scope of this update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. ASU 2015-11 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-11 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

7

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-12, Plan accounting: defined benefit pension plans (Topic 960), defined contribution pension plans (Topic 962), health and welfare benefit plans (Topic 965): (Part I) fully benefit-responsive investment contracts, (Part II) plan investment disclosures, (Part III) measurement date practical expedient. This update reduces complexity in employee benefit plan accounting, which is consistent with the FASB’s Simplification initiative.

Part I: Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts, designate contract value as the only required measure for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts, which maintains the relevant information while reducing the cost and complexity of reporting for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts. It removes the requirement that fully benefit-responsive investment contracts be measured at contract value and require an adjustment to reconcile contract value to fair value, when these measures differ, on the face of the plan financial statements.

Part II: Plan Investment Disclosures, simplifies and makes more effective the investment disclosure requirements under Topic 820 and under Topics 960, 962, and 965 for employee benefit plans.

Part III: Measurement Date Practical Expedient, reduces complexity in employee benefit plan accounting by providing a practical expedient that permits plans to measure investments and investment-related accounts as of a month-end date that is closest to the plan’s fiscal year-end, when the fiscal period does not coincide with month-end.

ASU 2015-12 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-12 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations. ASU 2015-16 simplifies the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts. The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that the acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amount is determined. The acquirer is also required to record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.  In addition, an entity is required to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes to the financial statements the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-16 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes. ASU 2015-17 requires that deferred income tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position in order to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. ASU 2015-17 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-17 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

3. Business Acquisitions

We incurred $1.7 of business acquisition and integration costs during the three months ended December 31, 2015 recorded in operating expenses.

Abel

We completed the acquisition of Abel Pumps LP and Abel GmbH & Co. KG and certain of their affiliates (collectively “Abel”) on October 2, 2015 for €95 ($105.7) in cash.  We utilized borrowings under our revolving credit facility and term loan (the “Facility”), which provides for revolving loans of up to $700.0 and a term loan in the amount of $180.0, to fund this acquisition. Based in Büchen, Germany, Abel is a globally-recognized leader in positive displacement pumps. Abel specializes in designing, developing and manufacturing piston and piston diaphragm pumps as well as pumping solutions and in providing related parts and service. This equipment is sold under the ABEL^® Pump Technologybrandinto the power generation, wastewater treatment, mining, general industry, and marine markets. The results of Abel are reported in our Process Equipment Group segment.

Based on the preliminary purchase allocation, we recorded goodwill of $35, and $58 of acquired identifiable intangible assets which consisted of $5 of trade names not subject to amortization, $9 of developed technology, $3 of backlog, and $41 of customer relationships. Goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes in Germany. Supplemental proforma information has not been provided as the acquisition did not have a material impact on consolidated results of operations.

Red Valve

On February 1, 2016, we completed the acquisition of Red Valve Company, Inc. (“Red Valve”) for $131.9 in cash, including $3.3 for related real estate. Based in Carnegie, Pennsylvania, Red Valve is a global leader in highly-engineered valves designed to operate in the harshest municipal and industrial wastewater environments. Its products support mission critical applications in water, power and mining and other general industrial markets.

The weighted average facility fee was 0.18% and 0.25% for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. The weighted average interest rate on the term loan was 1.46% and 1.54% for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

In the normal course of business, the Process Equipment Group provides to certain customers bank guarantees and other credit

arrangements in support of performance, warranty, advance payment, and other contractual obligations. This form of trade

finance is customary in the industry and, as a result, we are required to maintain adequate capacity to provide the guarantees. As of December 31, 2015, we had credit arrangements totaling $213.3, under which $124.5 was utilized for this purpose. These arrangements included our €150.0 Syndicated Letter of Guarantee Facility (as amended, the “LG Facility”) and other ancillary credit facilities.

The availability of borrowings under the Facility, the LG Facility, and the Private Shelf Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2012 (the “Shelf Agreement”), among the Company, Prudential Investment Management and each Prudential Affiliate (as defined thereunder), governing the 4.60% Series A unsecured notes (the “Series A Notes”), is subject to our ability to meet certain conditions including compliance with covenants, absence of default, and continued accuracy of certain representations

and warranties. Financial covenants include a maximum ratio of Indebtedness to EBITDA (as defined in the agreements) of 3.5 to 1.0 and a minimum ratio of EBITDA to interest expense of 3.5 to 1.0. As of December 31, 2015, we were in compliance with all covenants.

The Facility, senior unsecured notes, Series A Notes, and LG Facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the

Company’s domestic subsidiaries.

We had restricted cash of $0.7 and $0.8 at December 31, 2015 and September 30, 2015.

The effective tax rates for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were 29.3% and 28.4%. The increase in the effective tax rate during the three months ended December 31, 2015 was primarily due to discrete tax benefits recognized in fiscal 2015 that did not repeat in fiscal 2016.

The dilutive effects of performance-based stock awards were included in the computation of diluted earnings per share at the level the related performance criteria were met through the respective balance sheet date.  At December 31, 2015 and 2014, potential dilutive effects, representing approximately 1,300,000 and 1,400,000 shares, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the related performance criteria were not yet met, although we expect to meet various levels of criteria in the future.

Share-based compensation costs	$	0.6	$	2.2
Less impact of income tax benefit	0.2		0.8
Share-based compensation costs, net of tax	$	0.4	$	1.4

We have share-based compensation with long-term performance-based metrics that are contingent upon our relative total shareholder return and the creation of shareholder value as measured by the cumulative cash returns and final period net operating profit after tax compared to the performance-based targets for each grant over a three-year period.  For the performance-based awards contingent upon the creation of shareholder value, compensation expense is adjusted each quarter based upon actual results to date and any changes to forecasted information on each of the separate grants. 

During the three months ended December 31, 2015, we made the following grants:

	Number of Units
Stock options	497,774
Time-based stock awards	42,262
Performance-based stock awards (maximum that can be earned)	368,221

Stock options granted during fiscal 2016 had a weighted-average exercise price of $31.11 and a weighted-average grant date fair value of $7.80.  Our time-based stock awards and performance-based stock awards granted during fiscal 2016 had weighted-average grant date fair values of $30.54 and $33.11.  Included in the performance-based stock awards granted during 2016 are 194,689 units whose payout level is based upon the Company’s total shareholder return as it relates to the performance of companies in its compensation peer group over a three-year measurement period.  These units will be expensed on a straight-line basis over the measurement period and are not subsequently adjusted after the grant date.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Like most companies, we are involved from time to time in claims, lawsuits, and government proceedings relating to our operations, including environmental, patent infringement, business practices, commercial transactions, product and general liability, workers’ compensation, auto liability, employment, and other matters. The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty. An estimated loss from these contingencies is recognized when we believe it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated; however, it is difficult to measure the actual loss that might be incurred related to litigation. If a loss is not considered probable and/or cannot be reasonably estimated, we are required to make a disclosure if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a significant loss may have been incurred. Legal fees associated with claims and lawsuits are generally expensed as incurred.

Claims other than employment and related matters have deductibles and self-funded retentions up to $0.5 per occurrence or per claim, depending upon the type of coverage and policy period. Outside insurance companies and third-party claims administrators assist in establishing individual claim reserves, and an independent outside actuary provides estimates of ultimate projected losses, including incurred but not reported claims, which are used to establish reserves for losses. Claim

13

reserves for employment-related matters are established based upon advice from internal and external counsel and historical settlement information for claims and related fees when such amounts are considered probable of payment.

The recorded amounts represent our best estimate of the costs we will incur in relation to such exposures, but it is possible that actual costs will differ from those estimates.

14. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date.  The authoritative guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.  Observable inputs are from sources independent of the Company.  Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability, developed based upon the best information available in the circumstances.  The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The hierarchy is broken down into three levels:

Level 1:	Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2:	Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted prices) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3:	Inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability.

	Carrying
	Value at December 31,		Fair Value at December 31, 2015 Using Inputs Considered as:
	2015		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	55.1	$	55.1	$	—	$	—

Term loan	168.8		—		168.8		—
$100 Series A Notes	100.0		—		99.4		—
Derivative instruments	6.4		—		6.4		—

The fair values of the revolving credit facility and term loan approximated carrying value at December 31, 2015.  The fair values of the revolving credit facility, term loan, and Series A Notes are estimated based on internally developed models, using current market interest rate data for similar issues as there is no active market for our revolving credit facility, term loan, or Series A Notes.

The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are based upon pricing models using inputs derived from third-party pricing services or observable market data such as currency spot and forward rates.  These values are periodically validated by comparing to third-party broker quotes.  The aggregate notional value of these foreign currency derivatives was $177.9 at December 31, 2015. The derivatives are included in other current assets and other current liabilities on the balance sheet.

Item 2.MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION ANDRESULTS OF

OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE RESULTS

Throughout this Form 10-Q, we make a number of “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  As the words imply, these are statements about future plans, objectives, beliefs, and expectations that might or might not happen in the future, as contrasted with historical information.  Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that we believe are reasonable, but by their very nature are subject to a wide range of risks.

Accordingly, in this Form 10-Q, we may say something like:

“We expect that future revenue associated with the Process Equipment Group will be influenced by order backlog.”

That is a forward-looking statement, as indicated by the word “expect” and by the clear meaning of the sentence.

Other words that could indicate we are making forward-looking statements include:

intend	believe	plan	expect	may	goal	would
become	pursue	estimate	will	forecast	continue	could
targeted	encourage	promise	improve	progress	potential	should

This is not an exhaustive list, but is intended to give you an idea of how we try to identify forward-looking statements.  The absence of any of these words, however, does not mean that the statement is not forward-looking.

Here is the key point:  Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and our actual results could differ materially from those set forth in any forward-looking statements.

Any number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, could cause our performance to differ significantly from what is described in the forward-looking statements. For a discussion of factors that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in forward-looking statements, see the discussions under the heading “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of Part I of the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 18, 2015.  We assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements.

OPERATING PERFORMANCE MEASURES

The following discussion compares our results for the three months ended December 31, 2015, to the same period in fiscal year 2015.  The Company’s fiscal year ends on September 30.  Unless otherwise stated, references to years relate to fiscal years.  We begin the discussion at a consolidated level and then provide separate detail about the Process Equipment Group, Batesville, and Corporate.  These financial results are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”).

We also provide certain non-GAAP operating performance measures.  These non-GAAP measures are referred to as “adjusted” and exclude expenses associated with backlog intangible amortization, inventory step-up, business acquisition and integration, restructuring, and certain litigation costs.  The related income tax for all of these items is also excluded.  This non-GAAP information is provided as a supplement, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.

We use this non-GAAP information internally to make operating decisions and believe it is helpful to investors because it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results.  The information can also be used to perform trend analysis and to better identify operating trends that may otherwise be masked or distorted by these types of items.  We believe this information provides a higher degree of transparency.

An important non-GAAP measure that we use is adjusted earnings before interest, income tax, depreciation, and amortization

(“adjusted EBITDA”). A part of Hillenbrand’s strategy is to selectively acquire companies that we believe can benefit from the HOM to spur faster and more profitable growth. Given that strategy, it is a natural consequence to incur related expenses, such

21

as amortization from acquired intangible assets and additional interest expense from debt-funded acquisitions. Accordingly, we use adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, to monitor our business performance.

Another important non-GAAP operational measure used is backlog. Backlog is not a term recognized under GAAP; however, it is a common measurement used in industries with extended lead times for order fulfillment (long-term contracts), like those in which our Process Equipment Group competes. Order backlog represents the amount of consolidated revenue that we expect to realize on contracts awarded related to the Process Equipment Group. For purposes of calculating backlog, 100% of estimated revenue attributable to consolidated subsidiaries is included. Backlog includes expected revenue from large systems and equipment, as well as replacement parts, components, and service. The length of time that projects remain in backlog can span from days for replacement parts or service to approximately 18 months for larger system sales. Backlog includes expected revenue from the remaining portion of firm orders not yet completed, as well as revenue from change orders to the extent that they are reasonably expected to be realized. We include in backlog the full contract award, including awards subject to further customer approvals, which we expect to result in revenue in future periods. In accordance with industry practice, our contracts may include provisions for cancellation, termination or suspension at the discretion of the customer.

We expect that future revenue associated with the Process Equipment Group will be influenced by backlog because of the lead time involved in fulfilling engineered-to-order equipment for customers. Although backlog can be an indicator of future revenue, it does not include projects and parts orders that are booked and shipped within the same quarter. The timing of order placement, size, extent of customization, and customer delivery dates can create fluctuations in backlog and revenue. Revenue attributable to backlog may also be affected by foreign exchange fluctuations for orders denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

We analyze net revenue, gross profit, and operating expenses on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP measure, in order to better measure the comparability of results between periods. We calculate constant currency by translating current year results at prior year foreign exchange rates. This information is provided because exchange rates can distort the underlying change in sales, either positively or negatively. The cost structures for Corporate and Batesville are generally not significantly impacted by the fluctuation in foreign exchange rates, and we do not disclose constant currency metrics in the Operations Review below where the impact is not significant.

See page 26 for reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.  There is no GAAP financial measure comparable to backlog; therefore, a quantitative reconciliation of backlog is not provided.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2015 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2014

Net revenuedecreased $49.8 (12%), or $34.0 (8%) on a constant currency basis.

•The Process Equipment Group’s net revenue decreased $42.4 (17%), or $28.1 (11%) on a constant currency basis, primarily due to decreased demand for equipment, including equipment that processes proppants (used in hydraulic fracturing), equipment used in power and mining (including coal), and large project compounding and extrusion equipment, partially offset by the increased revenue ($8.0) associated with the acquisition of Abel in October 2015.

•Batesville’s net revenue decreased $7.4 (5%), or $5.9 (4%) on a constant currency basis, primarily due to a decrease in volume ($5.1) and average selling price. Lower volume was driven by what we estimate to be a decrease in North American burials, driven by the increased rate at which families opted for cremation.

Gross profitdecreased $10.2 (7%) or $5.5 (4%) on a constant currency basis, and gross profit margin improved200 basis points to 36.5%. 

•The Process Equipment Group’s gross profit decreased $8.9 (11%), or $4.4 (5%) on a constant currency basis, primarily driven by decreased demand for equipment, restructuring charges in fiscal 2016, and inventory step-up charges related to the Abel acquisition, partially offset by the increased profits associated with the acquisition of Abel. Gross profit margin improved230 basis points to 35.2% in 2016, primarily driven by lower warranty requirements based on quality improvements, implementation of procurement initiatives, and more favorable mix of equipment, partially offset by operational inefficiencies related to a facility restructuring.

•Batesville’s gross profit decreased$1.3 (2%) and gross profit margin improved100 basis points to 38.3%.  The decreased gross profit was primarily due to the decrease in volume, which was partially offset by lower commodity costs and restructuring charges from the disposal of equipment in 2015 that were not repeated in 2016. The improved gross profit margin was primarily driven by restructuring charges that did not repeat in 2016 and the decline in commodity costs.

Gross profit included restructuring charges ($2.0 in 2016 and $1.2 in 2015) and inventory step-up charges related to the Abel acquisition ($1.4 in 2016). Excluding these items, adjusted gross profit decreased$8.0 (6%) and adjusted gross profit margin improved260 basis points to 37.4%.

23

Operating expensesdecreased $1.5 (2%), although they increased $1.8 (2%) on a constant currency basis. The constant currency increase was primarily driven by the addition of operating expenses from Abel, which was acquired in October 2015, an increase in acquisition and integration costs, and an increase in restructuring charges, partially offset by a decrease in variable compensation and litigation costs.  The operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue increased by 250 basis points to 23.3% in 2016.  Operating expenses included the following items:

	Three Months Ended December 31,
	2015		2014
Business acquisition and integration costs	$	1.7	$	0.3
Restructuring charges	1.4		0.7
Litigation expenses	—		0.5

On an adjusted basis, which excluded business acquisition and integration costs, restructuring charges, and litigation expenses, operating expenses decreased $3.1 (4%), although they increased $0.3 on a constant currency basis. The increase in adjusted operating expenses on a constant currency basis was primarily driven by the addition of operating expenses from Abel, partially offset by a decrease in variable compensation. The adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue increased210 basis points in 2016 to 22.5%. The increased ratio was primarily due to a higher average rate of commissions on sales made in fiscal 2016 and the higher level of fixed operating expenses in proportion to lower revenue in the current quarter.

Amortization expenseincreased$2.2, primarily due to the acquired intangibles of Abel.

Interest expenseincreased $0.2 due to an increase in our weighted-average outstanding borrowings.

Other income (expense), net was $0.7 of other expense in fiscal 2016, compared to $0.0 of other income in fiscal 2015. The decrease was driven primarily by increased losses on limited partnership investments.

The effective tax rate was 29.3% in fiscal 2016 compared to 28.4% in fiscal 2015.  The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to discrete tax benefits recognized in fiscal 2015 that did not repeat in fiscal 2016. Our adjusted effective income tax rate was 30.5% in fiscal 2016 compared to 28.5% in fiscal 2015, which excludes the tax impact of adjustments discussed above.

On a constant currency basis, backlog at December 31, 2015 would have been $543.0, a decrease of $47.4 (8%) compared to December 31, 2014. Order backlog at December 31, 2014 contained a significant number of project orders for equipment that processes proppants, which was the primary driver of the decrease at December 31, 2015, as those orders were not replaced.

On a sequential basis, order backlog increased $46.3 (10%) at December 31, 2015 to $505.1, up from $458.8 at September 30, 2015.

Operating expensesdecreased $0.2 (0.4%), although they increased $2.9 (6%) on a constant currency basis. The constant currency increase was primarily driven by the addition of operating expenses from Abel, which was acquired in October 2015, and an increase in restructuring charges. The operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue increased by 380 basis points to 23.3% in 2016, primarily due to a higher average rate of commissions on sales made in fiscal 2016 and the level of fixed operating expenses in proportion to lower revenue in the current quarter.

Operating expenses included restructuring charges ($1.2 in 2016 and $0.3 in 2015).  Excluding these items, adjusted operating expenses decreased $1.1 (2%), although they increased $2.0 (4%) on a constant currency basis. The increase in adjusted operating expenses on a constant currency basis was primarily driven by the addition of operating expenses from Abel. The operating expenses as a percentage of net revenue increased 340 basis points to 22.7% in 2016. The increased ratio was primarily due to a higher average rate of commissions on sales made in fiscal 2016 and the level of fixed operating expenses in proportion to lower revenue in the current quarter.

Amortization expenseincreased$2.7 primarily due to the acquired intangibles of Abel.

Restructuring charges	0.2		0.1	0.4		0.1
Operating expenses	$	8.9	2.5	$	8.4	2.1

Core operating expenses primarily represent operating expenses excluding restructuring costs and costs related to business acquisition and integration, which we incur as a result of our strategy to grow through selective acquisitions.

Three Months Ended December 31, 2015 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2014

Core operating expenses decreased $0.8 (10%), primarily due to lower variable compensation.  These expenses as a percentage of net revenue were 2.0%, an increase of 10 basis points from fiscal 2015.

NON-GAAP OPERATING PERFORMANCE MEASURES

The following is a reconciliation from the most directly comparable GAAP operating performance measure to our non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA.

Consolidated net income	21.0			29.7
Interest income	(0.3		)	(0.3		)

Adjusted EBITDA	$	57.8		$	63.4

Consolidated adjusted EBITDA decreased $5.6 (9%) in fiscal 2016, compared to the same period in fiscal 2015.  On a constant currency basis, consolidated adjusted EBITDA decreased$4.4 (7%) primarily due to a decrease in volume of equipment sales at the Process Equipment Group and a decrease in volume and average selling price at Batesville, partially offset by the increased earnings associated with the acquisition of Abel in October 2015.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In this section, we discuss our ability to access cash to meet business needs. We discuss how we see cash flow being affected for the next twelve months and how we intend to use it. We describe actual results in generating and utilizing cash by comparing the first three months of 2016 to the same period last year. Finally, we identify other significant matters that could affect liquidity on an ongoing basis.

Ability to Access Cash

26

Our debt financing includes long-term notes, including the Series A Notes, and our revolving credit facility and term loan (the “Facility”) as part of our overall financing strategy. We believe we have ready access to capital markets and regularly review the optimal mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt. In addition to cash balances and our ability to access additional long-term financing, we had $479.8 of maximum borrowing capacity available under the Facility as of December 31, 2015, of which $343.7 of borrowing capacity is immediately available based on our leverage covenant at December 31, 2015, with additional amounts available in the event of a qualifying acquisition. The available borrowing capacity reflects a reduction of $15.1 for outstanding letters of credit issued under the Facility. The Company may request an increase of up to $300.0 in the total borrowing capacity under the Facility, subject to approval of the lenders.

In the normal course of business, the Process Equipment Group provides to certain customers bank guarantees and other credit arrangements in support of performance, warranty, advance payment, and other contractual obligations. This form of trade finance is customary in the industry and, as a result, we are required to maintain adequate capacity to provide the guarantees. As of December 31, 2015, we had guarantee arrangements totaling $213.3, under which $124.5 was utilized for this purpose. These arrangements include a €150.0 Syndicated Letter of Guarantee Facility (as amended, the “LG Facility”) under which unsecured letters of credit, bank guarantees, or other surety bonds may be issued. The Company may request an increase to the total capacity under the LG facility by an additional €70.0, subject to approval of the lenders.

We have significant operations outside the U.S. The majority of foreign earnings is considered to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign jurisdictions where the Company has made, and intends to continue to make, substantial investments to support the ongoing development and growth of our international operations. Accordingly, no U.S. federal and state income taxes have been accrued on the portion of our foreign earnings that is considered to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign jurisdictions. The cash at our international subsidiaries totaled $46.7 at December 31, 2015. We do not intend, nor do we foresee a need, to repatriate these funds; however, repatriation of these funds under current regulatory and tax law for use in domestic operations would expose us to additional taxes.

12-month Outlook

We believe the 12-month outlook for our business remains positive. Although cash flow from operations in the Process Equipment Group naturally experiences substantial fluctuations driven by changes in working capital requirements at Coperion (due to the type of product and geography of customer projects in process at any point in time), we believe we have significant flexibility to meet our financial commitments, including working capital needs, capital expenditures, and financing obligations. We expect to continue to use a combination of some of our cash flows from operations and our Facility to fund acquisitions. In considering attractive targets, we often look for companies with a relatively low physical asset base, in order to limit the need to invest significant additional cash into targets post-acquisition. On February 1, 2016, we completed the acquisition of Red Valve Company, Inc. for $131.9 million in cash. We utilized borrowings under our Facility to fund this acquisition.

Our anticipated contribution to our pension plans in 2016 is $14.9, of which $3.1 was made during the three months endedDecember 31, 2015. We will continue to monitor plan funding levels, performance of the assets within the plans, and overall economic activity, and we may make additional discretionary funding decisions based on the net impact of the above factors.

We currently expect to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future comparable to those we paid in 2015, which will require approximately $12.8 each quarter based on our outstanding common stock at December 31, 2015. We increased our quarterly dividend in 2016 to $0.2025 per common share from $0.2000 per common share paid in 2015. In addition we repurchased approximately 106,000 shares of our common stock during the three months ended December 31, 2015, for a total cost of approximately $3.0.

We believe existing cash, cash flows from operations, and the issuance of debt will be sufficient to fund our operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities. Based on these factors, we believe our current liquidity position is strong and will continue to meet all of our financial commitments for the foreseeable future.

Cash Flows

	Three Months Ended December 31,

Cash flows provided by (used in)
Operating activities	$	35.7		$	(41.9	)

Financing activities	81.7			42.3
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	1.5			1.4
Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	6.8		$	(6.0	)

Operating Activities

Operating activities provided $35.7 of cash during the first three months of fiscal year 2016, in contrast to using $41.9 of cash during the first three months of fiscal year 2015, a $77.6 increase.  The increase in cash in the first quarter was driven in part by a litigation settlement at Batesville in fiscal 2015 and a significant improvement in management of working capital at the Process Equipment Group.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2015, continued progress on compounding and extrusion orders at our Coperion business required an increased outflow of supplier payments. In addition, due to the shifting of delivery dates, collection on certain customer contracts was delayed from fiscal year 2015 into the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

Working capital requirements for the Process Equipment Group may continue to fluctuate this way in the future due primarily to the type of product and geography of customer projects in process at any point in time.  Working capital needs are lower when advance payments from customers are more heavily weighted toward the beginning of the project. Conversely, working capital needs are higher when a larger portion of the cash is to be received in later stages of manufacturing.  

Investing Activities

The $104.3 increase in cash used in investing activities in the first three months of fiscal 2016 was primarily due to the acquisition of Abel in October 2015.

Financing Activities

Cash provided by financing activities was largely impacted by net borrowing activity.  Our general practice is to utilize our cash to pay down debt unless it is needed for an acquisition.  Cash provided by financing activities during the first three months of 2016 was $81.7, including $97.4 of proceeds, net of debt repayments and financing costs, which were used to finance the acquisition of Abel.  Cash provided by financing activities in the first three months of fiscal 2015 was $42.3.

We returned approximately $12.7 to shareholders during the first three months of 2016 in the form of quarterly dividends.  We increased our quarterly dividend in 2016 to $0.2025 per common share from $0.2000 per common share paid during 2015.  In addition, we repurchased approximately 106,000 shares of our common stock in 2016, for a total cost of approximately $3.0, as part of an approved and publicly announced program.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements.

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Standards

Item 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISKS

A discussion of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk may be found in Item 7A of our 2015 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 18, 2015.  There have been no material changes in this information since the filing of our 2015 Form 10-K.

Item 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management, with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (the “Certifying Officers”), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)).  Based upon that evaluation, the Certifying Officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are effective.

There have been no changes in internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) for the period covered by this report that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Background and Basis of Presentation

Background and Basis of Presentation

Hillenbrand, Inc. (“Hillenbrand”) is a global diversified industrial company that makes and sells premium business-to-business products and services for a wide variety of industries.  We strive to provide superior return for our shareholders, exceptional value for our customers, and great professional opportunities for our people through deployment of the Hillenbrand Operating Model (the “HOM”). The HOM is a consistent and repeatable framework designed to produce sustainable and predictable results.  The HOM describes our mission, vision, values, and leader’s mindset; uses our management practices in Strategy Management, Segmentation, Lean, Talent Development, and Acquisitions; and prescribes three steps (Understand, Focus and Grow)to make our businesses both bigger and better.  Our goal is to continue developing Hillenbrand as a world-class global diversified industrial company. Hillenbrand is composed of two segments:  the Process Equipment Group and Batesville^®.  The Process Equipment Group businesses design, develop, manufacture, and service highly engineered industrial equipment around the world.  Batesville is a recognized leader in the North American death care industry.  “Hillenbrand,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar words refer to Hillenbrand and its subsidiaries.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hillenbrand and its subsidiaries.  They also include two minor subsidiaries where the Company’s ownership percentage is less than 100%.  The Company’s fiscal year ends on September 30.  Unless otherwise stated, references to years relate to fiscal years. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2016 presentation.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements and therefore do not include all information required in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”).  The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as, and should be read in conjunction with, the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2015, as filed with the SEC.  The September 30, 2015 Consolidated Balance Sheet included in this Form 10-Q was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for a year-end balance sheet included in Form 10-K.  In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations and cash flow as of the dates and for the periods presented.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Examples of such estimates include, but are not limited to, revenue recognition under the percentage-of-completion method and the establishment of reserves related to customer rebates, doubtful accounts, warranties, early-pay discounts, inventories, income taxes, litigation, self-insurance, and progress toward achievement of performance criteria under the incentive compensation programs.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

3 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2015

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Recently Issued Accounting Standard

The significant accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2015.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2015.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-8, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations.  Under ASU 2014-8, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations.  ASU 2014-8 became effective and was adopted for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2015.  The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted on October 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.  ASU 2014-12 states that a performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition.  ASU 2014-12 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-12 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items. ASU 2015-01 eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The new standard amends the consolidation guidance in ASC 810 and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required under current generally accepted accounting principles. ASU 2015-02 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest. ASU 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest: Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. This standard permits an entity to defer and present debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements as an asset and to subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. These new standards do not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs. ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software. ASU 2015-05 helps entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement by providing guidance as to whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software. ASU 2015-05 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-05 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330).Under current FASB standards, an entity is required to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. ASU 2015-11 requires an entity to measure inventory within the scope of this update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. ASU 2015-11 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-11 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-12, Plan accounting: defined benefit pension plans (Topic 960), defined contribution pension plans (Topic 962), health and welfare benefit plans (Topic 965): (Part I) fully benefit-responsive investment contracts, (Part II) plan investment disclosures, (Part III) measurement date practical expedient. This update reduces complexity in employee benefit plan accounting, which is consistent with the FASB’s Simplification initiative.

Part I: Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts, designate contract value as the only required measure for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts, which maintains the relevant information while reducing the cost and complexity of reporting for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts. It removes the requirement that fully benefit-responsive investment contracts be measured at contract value and require an adjustment to reconcile contract value to fair value, when these measures differ, on the face of the plan financial statements.

Part II: Plan Investment Disclosures, simplifies and makes more effective the investment disclosure requirements under Topic 820 and under Topics 960, 962, and 965 for employee benefit plans.

Part III: Measurement Date Practical Expedient, reduces complexity in employee benefit plan accounting by providing a practical expedient that permits plans to measure investments and investment-related accounts as of a month-end date that is closest to the plan’s fiscal year-end, when the fiscal period does not coincide with month-end.

ASU 2015-12 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-12 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations. ASU 2015-16 simplifies the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts. The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that the acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amount is determined. The acquirer is also required to record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.  In addition, an entity is required to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes to the financial statements the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-16 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes. ASU 2015-17 requires that deferred income tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position in order to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. ASU 2015-17 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-17 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Share-based compensation costs, net of tax	$	0.4	$	1.4

We have share-based compensation with long-term performance-based metrics that are contingent upon our relative total shareholder return and the creation of shareholder value as measured by the cumulative cash returns and final period net operating profit after tax compared to the performance-based targets for each grant over a three-year period.  For the performance-based awards contingent upon the creation of shareholder value, compensation expense is adjusted each quarter based upon actual results to date and any changes to forecasted information on each of the separate grants. 

During the three months ended December 31, 2015, we made the following grants:

	Number of Units
Stock options	497,774
Time-based stock awards	42,262
Performance-based stock awards (maximum that can be earned)	368,221

Stock options granted during fiscal 2016 had a weighted-average exercise price of $31.11 and a weighted-average grant date fair value of $7.80.  Our time-based stock awards and performance-based stock awards granted during fiscal 2016 had weighted-average grant date fair values of $30.54 and $33.11.  Included in the performance-based stock awards granted during 2016 are 194,689 units whose payout level is based upon the Company’s total shareholder return as it relates to the performance of companies in its compensation peer group over a three-year measurement period.  These units will be expensed on a straight-line basis over the measurement period and are not subsequently adjusted after the grant date.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Like most companies, we are involved from time to time in claims, lawsuits, and government proceedings relating to our operations, including environmental, patent infringement, business practices, commercial transactions, product and general liability, workers’ compensation, auto liability, employment, and other matters. The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty. An estimated loss from these contingencies is recognized when we believe it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated; however, it is difficult to measure the actual loss that might be incurred related to litigation. If a loss is not considered probable and/or cannot be reasonably estimated, we are required to make a disclosure if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a significant loss may have been incurred. Legal fees associated with claims and lawsuits are generally expensed as incurred.

Claims other than employment and related matters have deductibles and self-funded retentions up to $0.5 per occurrence or per claim, depending upon the type of coverage and policy period. Outside insurance companies and third-party claims administrators assist in establishing individual claim reserves, and an independent outside actuary provides estimates of ultimate projected losses, including incurred but not reported claims, which are used to establish reserves for losses. Claim reserves for employment-related matters are established based upon advice from internal and external counsel and historical settlement information for claims and related fees when such amounts are considered probable of payment.

The recorded amounts represent our best estimate of the costs we will incur in relation to such exposures, but it is possible that actual costs will differ from those estimates.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date.  The authoritative guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.  Observable inputs are from sources independent of the Company.  Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability, developed based upon the best information available in the circumstances.  The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The hierarchy is broken down into three levels:

Level 1:	Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2:	Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted prices) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3:	Inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability.

	Carrying

Term loan	168.8		—		168.8		—
$100 Series A Notes	100.0		—		99.4		—
Derivative instruments	6.4		—		6.4		—

The fair values of the revolving credit facility and term loan approximated carrying value at December 31, 2015.  The fair values of the revolving credit facility, term loan, and Series A Notes are estimated based on internally developed models, using current market interest rate data for similar issues as there is no active market for our revolving credit facility, term loan, or Series A Notes.

The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are based upon pricing models using inputs derived from third-party pricing services or observable market data such as currency spot and forward rates.  These values are periodically validated by comparing to third-party broker quotes.  The aggregate notional value of these foreign currency derivatives was $177.9 at December 31, 2015. The derivatives are included in other current assets and other current liabilities on the balance sheet.

3. Business Acquisitions

We incurred $1.7 of business acquisition and integration costs during the three months ended December 31, 2015 recorded in operating expenses.

Abel

We completed the acquisition of Abel Pumps LP and Abel GmbH & Co. KG and certain of their affiliates (collectively “Abel”) on October 2, 2015 for €95 ($105.7) in cash.  We utilized borrowings under our revolving credit facility and term loan (the “Facility”), which provides for revolving loans of up to $700.0 and a term loan in the amount of $180.0, to fund this acquisition. Based in Büchen, Germany, Abel is a globally-recognized leader in positive displacement pumps. Abel specializes in designing, developing and manufacturing piston and piston diaphragm pumps as well as pumping solutions and in providing related parts and service. This equipment is sold under the ABEL^® Pump Technologybrandinto the power generation, wastewater treatment, mining, general industry, and marine markets. The results of Abel are reported in our Process Equipment Group segment.

Based on the preliminary purchase allocation, we recorded goodwill of $35, and $58 of acquired identifiable intangible assets which consisted of $5 of trade names not subject to amortization, $9 of developed technology, $3 of backlog, and $41 of customer relationships. Goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes in Germany. Supplemental proforma information has not been provided as the acquisition did not have a material impact on consolidated results of operations.

Red Valve

On February 1, 2016, we completed the acquisition of Red Valve Company, Inc. (“Red Valve”) for $131.9 in cash, including $3.3 for related real estate.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Recently Issued Accounting Standard

The significant accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2015.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparing these consolidated financial statements are consistent with the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2015.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-8, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations.  Under ASU 2014-8, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations.  ASU 2014-8 became effective and was adopted for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2015.  The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted on October 1, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.  ASU 2014-12 states that a performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition.  ASU 2014-12 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-12 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items. ASU 2015-01 eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The new standard amends the consolidation guidance in ASC 810 and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required under current generally accepted accounting principles. ASU 2015-02 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest. ASU 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest: Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. This standard permits an entity to defer and present debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements as an asset and to subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. These new standards do not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs. ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software. ASU 2015-05 helps entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement by providing guidance as to whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software. ASU 2015-05 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-05 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330).Under current FASB standards, an entity is required to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. ASU 2015-11 requires an entity to measure inventory within the scope of this update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. ASU 2015-11 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-11 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-12, Plan accounting: defined benefit pension plans (Topic 960), defined contribution pension plans (Topic 962), health and welfare benefit plans (Topic 965): (Part I) fully benefit-responsive investment contracts, (Part II) plan investment disclosures, (Part III) measurement date practical expedient. This update reduces complexity in employee benefit plan accounting, which is consistent with the FASB’s Simplification initiative.

Part I: Fully Benefit-Responsive Investment Contracts, designate contract value as the only required measure for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts, which maintains the relevant information while reducing the cost and complexity of reporting for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts. It removes the requirement that fully benefit-responsive investment contracts be measured at contract value and require an adjustment to reconcile contract value to fair value, when these measures differ, on the face of the plan financial statements.

Part II: Plan Investment Disclosures, simplifies and makes more effective the investment disclosure requirements under Topic 820 and under Topics 960, 962, and 965 for employee benefit plans.

Part III: Measurement Date Practical Expedient, reduces complexity in employee benefit plan accounting by providing a practical expedient that permits plans to measure investments and investment-related accounts as of a month-end date that is closest to the plan’s fiscal year-end, when the fiscal period does not coincide with month-end.

ASU 2015-12 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-12 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations. ASU 2015-16 simplifies the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts. The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that the acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amount is determined. The acquirer is also required to record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.  In addition, an entity is required to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes to the financial statements the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-16 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes. ASU 2015-17 requires that deferred income tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position in order to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. ASU 2015-17 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2015-17 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

arrangements in support of performance, warranty, advance payment, and other contractual obligations. This form of trade

finance is customary in the industry and, as a result, we are required to maintain adequate capacity to provide the guarantees. As of December 31, 2015, we had credit arrangements totaling $213.3, under which $124.5 was utilized for this purpose. These arrangements included our €150.0 Syndicated Letter of Guarantee Facility (as amended, the “LG Facility”) and other ancillary credit facilities.

The availability of borrowings under the Facility, the LG Facility, and the Private Shelf Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2012 (the “Shelf Agreement”), among the Company, Prudential Investment Management and each Prudential Affiliate (as defined thereunder), governing the 4.60% Series A unsecured notes (the “Series A Notes”), is subject to our ability to meet certain conditions including compliance with covenants, absence of default, and continued accuracy of certain representations and warranties. Financial covenants include a maximum ratio of Indebtedness to EBITDA (as defined in the agreements) of 3.5
