NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Donaldson Company, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of earnings, comprehensive income, financial position and cash flows have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three month period ended October 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet information was derived from the Company's audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. For further information, refer to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2018.

New Accounting Standards Recently Adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), which amended revenue recognition guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires expanded disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required about customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. In 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-11, ASU 2016-12 and ASU 2016-20 to clarify, among other things, the implementation guidance related to principal versus agent considerations, identifying performance obligations and accounting for licenses of intellectual property. This accounting guidance was effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The standard was adopted using the modified retrospective method, applying the guidance to those contracts which were not completed as of July 31, 2018, with the cumulative effect of adoption recognized during the first quarter. Refer to Note 6 for the impact of the adoption of this new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business (ASU 2017-01). The new guidance provides a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities is a business. The amendments provide more consistency in applying the guidance, reduce the costs of application and make the definition of a business more operable. ASU 2017-01 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and it did not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715) (ASU 2017-07). The new guidance requires employers to disaggregate and present separately the current service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost within the consolidated statement of earnings. ASU 2017-07 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2017-07 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 using the retrospective method. This resulted in a reclassification of net benefit costs in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, with a decrease of $1.6 million in operating income and a corresponding $1.6 million increase to other income, net for the three months ended October 31, 2017.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (ASU 2017-12), which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements and make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. The guidance expands the ability to hedge non-financial and financial risk components, reduces complexity in fair value hedges of interest rate risk, eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and eases certain hedge effectiveness assessment requirements. ASU 2017-12 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and it did not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which requires lessees to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for substantially all leases. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 on a modified retrospective basis. The Company has established a project team that is currently evaluating the population of leased assets to assess the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). This guidance introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. Financial instruments impacted include accounts receivable, trade receivables, other financial assets measured at

6

amortized cost and other off-balance sheet credit exposures. The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of ASU 2016-13 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2018-02). The guidance allows a company to elect to reclassify from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) to retained earnings the stranded tax effects from the adoption of the newly enacted federal corporate tax rate as a result of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amount of the reclassification is calculated as the difference between the amount initially charged to other comprehensive income (OCI) at the previously enacted tax rate that remains in AOCI and the amount that would have been charged using the newly enacted tax rate, excluding any valuation allowance previously charged to income. ASU 2018-02 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-02 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (ASU 2018-15). Theamendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual periods for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-15 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2. Acquisitions

On October 18, 2018, the Company acquired 88% of the shares of BOFA International LTD (BOFA), headquartered in the United Kingdom, for cash consideration of $98.2 million less cash acquired of $2.2 million. BOFA designs, develops and manufactures fume extraction systems across a wide range of industrial air filtration applications. The acquisition will allow Donaldson to accelerate its global growth in the fume collection business and add additional filtration technology to the Company's existing product lines. The fair values assigned to the acquired assets and liabilities of BOFA were approximately $12.2 million of net tangible assets, $48.8 million of identifiable intangible assets, $71.0 million of goodwill, $8.6 million of deferred tax liabilities and $14.3 million of assumed debt. The assumed debt was repaid in October 2018. The identifiable intangible assets were related to customer relationships, patents, trademarks and technology and have estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 15 years. The acquired intangible assets including goodwill are not deductible for tax purposes. The purchase price allocation is preliminary pending the outcome of the final valuation of the net assets acquired. The Company is reporting BOFA’s results of operations within the Industrial Products segment. Transaction costs were expensed as incurred and were not significant for the three months ended October 31, 2018.

The acquisition also provides call and put options that, if exercised by either the Company or the minority interest holders after a certain period of time, would obligate the Company to purchase the remaining 12% of the shares of BOFA at a price indexed to the performance of the acquired entity. Due to the redemption features, the minority interest holders’ value is classified as a redeemable non-controlling interest in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at the fair value upon acquisition of $13.1 million.

Pro forma financial information for this acquisition has not been presented because it is not material to the Company's consolidated results of operations.

Note 4. Earnings Per Share

The Company’s basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares. The Company’s diluted net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares and common share equivalents relating to stock options and stock incentive plans. Certain outstanding options were excluded from the diluted net earnings per share calculations because their exercise prices are greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during those periods. Options excluded from the diluted net earnings per share calculations were 0.8 million and zero for the three months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The following table presents the information necessary to calculate basic and diluted net earnings per share (in millions, except per share amounts):

Note 6. Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue on a wide range of filtration solutions sold to customers in many industries around the globe. The vast majority of the Company’s performance obligations within customer sales contracts are for manufactured filtration systems and replacement parts. The Company does have limited services, such as nonrecurring engineering (NRE) and installation. Customer contracts may include multiple performance obligations and the transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price.

Revenue Recognition Policy

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the fulfillment of performance obligations. The transaction price of a contract could be reduced by variable consideration including product refunds, returns, volume rebates and discounts in the determination of net sales. The Company primarily relies on historical experience and anticipated future performance to estimate the variable consideration. Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur when the contingency is resolved. The Company also accounts for amounts billed to customers for reimbursement of shipping and handling as fulfillment costs by recording these amounts as revenue and accruing the costs when the related revenue is recognized.

For most customer contracts, the Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer. For product sales, control is typically deemed to have transferred in accordance with the shipping terms, either at the time of shipment from the plants or distribution centers or the time of delivery to the customers. Revenue is recognized for services upon completion of those services.

Due to the customized nature of some of the Company’s products, together with contractual provisions in certain customer contracts that provide the Company with an enforceable right to payment of the transaction price for performance completed to date, revenue is recognized for these contracts over time. For these contracts, the Company recognizes revenue on products by an output measure of production, which fairly depicts the amount of revenue the Company is entitled to. The timing of revenue recognized from these products is slightly accelerated compared to revenue recognized at the point in time of shipment or delivery. Revenue generated from NRE services is also satisfied over time, measured as contractual milestones are achieved as this represents value transferred to the customer.

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and other costs to fulfill a contract are required to be capitalized. The only such cost material to the Company is sales commission expense. The Company has elected to expense these costs of obtaining a contract as incurred when the related contract period is less than one year. The Company does not pay upfront sales commissions on contracts when the related contract period is greater than one year, thus has not capitalized any amounts as of October 31, 2018.

	2018		2017
Engine Products segment
Off-Road	$	76.2	$	75.0
On-Road	45.9		33.3
Aftermarket	331.2		309.1
Aerospace and Defense	27.6		24.7
Engine Products segment net sales	480.9		442.1
Industrial Products segment
Industrial Filtration Solutions	149.4		134.5
Gas Turbine Systems	25.5		26.3
Special Applications	45.6		41.9
Industrial Products segment net sales	220.5		202.7
Total net sales	$	701.4	$	644.8

Contract Assets and Liabilities

The satisfaction of performance obligations and the resulting recognition of revenue typically corresponds with billing of the customer. In limited circumstances, the customer may be billed at a time later than when revenue is recognized, resulting in contract assets, which are reported in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract assets were $13.1 million as of October 31, 2018. In other limited circumstances, the Company will require a down payment from the customer prior to the satisfaction of performance obligations. This results in contract liabilities, or deferred revenue, which is reported in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, depending on when revenue is expected to be recognized. Contract liabilities were $12.0 million and $10.5 million as of October 31, 2018 and July 31, 2018, respectively.

The Company will recognize revenue in future periods related to remaining performance obligations for certain open contracts. Generally, these contracts have terms of one year or less. The amount of revenue related to unsatisfied performance obligations in which the original duration of the contract is greater than one year is not significant.

10

Adoption of ASC 606

Note 1 describes the requirements of the new revenue recognition standard, ASC 606. The cumulative effect of the adoption on the Company’s August 1, 2018 opening balance sheet is as follows (in millions):

	Balance at July 31, 2018		Adjustments for ASC 606			Balance at August 1, 2018
Assets
Inventories, net	$	334.1	$	(7.3	)	$	326.8
Prepaid expense and other current assets	52.3		14.0			66.3
Liabilities
Other current liabilities	86.6		0.3			86.9
Deferred income taxes	4.2		1.1			5.3
Equity
Retained earnings	1,122.1		5.3			1,127.4

These adjustments primarily related to certain contracts that qualify for revenue recognition over time under the new standard. This change does not have a material impact on revenue recognized during the three months ended October 31, 2018.

In addition, the adoption of ASC 606 impacted one set of contracts within the Engine Products segment in which Donaldson is deemed to be the principal under the new standard because the Company has control through the manufacturing of products prior to the sale of those products to the customer. For these contracts, the previous practice of recognizing revenue on a net basis, in which the amount of net sales recorded is the net amount retained after paying product costs to suppliers, has changed under ASC 606 to recognizing revenue on a gross basis, in which the amount of net sales recorded is the gross amount received from the customer, with corresponding product costs recorded as cost of sales. This change did not result in a cumulative effect adjustment under the modified retrospective method of adoption since there is no impact to the timing of revenue recognition but it has increased net sales and cost of sales on a prospective basis. The increase in net sales and cost of sales for this change was $5.1 million for the three months ended October 31, 2018.

Note 7. Warranty

The Company estimates warranty expense on certain products at the time of sale. The following is a reconciliation of warranty reserves, included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities, for the three months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017 (in millions):

	Three Months Ended October 31,

There were no material specific warranty matters accrued for or significant settlements made in the three months ended October 31, 2018 or 2017. The Company’s warranty matters are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, liquidity or financial position.

Note 8. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized using the fair-value method for all awards. The Company determines the fair value of stock option awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Options are granted whereby the option exercise price is equivalent to the market price of the Company's common stock at the date of grant. For the three months ended October 31, 2018, the Company recorded pretax stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options of $4.9 million and recorded $1.1 million of related tax benefits. For the three months ended October 31, 2017, the Company recorded pretax stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options of $3.8 million and recorded $1.2 million of related tax benefits. In addition, for the three months ended October 31, 2018, the Company recorded expense associated with performance-based awards of $1.7

11

million. For the three months ended October 31, 2017, the Company recorded expense associated with performance-based awards of $2.7 million.

The following table summarizes stock option activity during the three months ended October 31, 2018:

	Options Outstanding		Weighted Average Exercise Price

As of October 31, 2018, the aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable was $90.7 million and $75.7 million, respectively.

As of October 31, 2018, there was $12.6 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock options granted under the 2010 Master Stock Incentive Plan. This unvested expense is expected to be recognized during fiscal years 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Note 9. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company and certain of its international subsidiaries have defined benefit pension plans for many of their hourly and salaried employees. There are two types of U.S. plans. The first type of U.S. plan (Hourly Pension Plan) is a traditional defined benefit pension plan primarily for union production employees. The second plan (Salaried Pension Plan) is for some salaried and non-union production employees that provides defined benefits pursuant to a cash balance feature whereby a participant accumulates a benefit comprised of a percentage of current salary that varies with years of service, interest credits and transition credits. The Company no longer allows entrants into the U.S. Salaried Pension Plan and the employees no longer accrue Company contribution credits under the plan. Instead, eligible employees receive a 3% annual Company retirement contribution to their 401(k) in addition to the Company’s normal 401(k) match. The non-U.S. plans generally provide pension benefits based on years of service and compensation level.

12

Net periodic benefit costs for the Company’s pension plans include the following components (in millions):

	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2018			2017
Net periodic benefit costs:
Service cost	$	1.5		$	2.0
Interest cost	4.1			3.7
Expected return on assets	(6.6		)	(6.5		)
Prior service cost amortization	0.1			0.1
Actuarial loss amortization	1.1			1.1
Net periodic benefit costs	$	0.2		$	0.4

The Company’s general funding policy is to make at least the minimum required contributions as required by applicable regulations, plus any additional amounts that it determines to be appropriate. For the three months ended October 31, 2018, the Company made required contributions of $1.0 million to its non-qualified U.S. pension plans and $0.3 million to its non-U.S. pension plans. The estimated minimum funding requirement for the Company’s qualified U.S. plans for the plan year ending July 31, 2019 is $3.1 million. In accordance with the Pension Protection Act of 2006, this contribution obligation may be met with existing credit balances that resulted from payments above the minimum obligation in prior years. The Company has sufficient credit balances to meet the minimum obligation for the plan year ending July 31, 2019. The Company estimates it will contribute an additional $1.0 million to its non-U.S. pension plans during the remainder of fiscal 2019 based upon the local government prescribed funding requirements. Future estimates of the Company’s required pension plan contributions may change significantly depending on the actual rate of return on plan assets, discount rates and regulatory requirements.

Note 10. Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was enacted into law. The TCJA significantly reforms the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, including but not limited to reducing the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent and moving toward a territorial tax system with a one-time transition tax imposed on previously unremitted foreign earnings and profits.

Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 (SAB 118) includes additional guidance allowing companies to use a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the TCJA enactment date to account for the impacts of the law in their financial statements.

There have been no material measurement period adjustments made during the three months ended October 31, 2018 related to the provisional amounts recorded and disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2018.

During the three months ended October 31, 2018, the Company made the accounting policy election to treat taxes related to the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) provision of the TCJA as a current period expense when incurred.

Although the Company believes it has made reasonable estimates in accounting for the impacts of the TCJA, these tax charges and benefits are provisional, as the Company is still analyzing certain aspects of the legislation and refining calculations as information becomes available during the measurement period as allowed by SAB 118. The accounting for the income tax effects of the TCJA is expected to be completed during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and any future adjustments will be recognized as discrete income tax expense or benefit in the period the adjustments are determined.

As of October 31, 2018, the gross unrecognized tax benefits were $19.4 million and accrued interest and penalties on these unrecognized tax benefits were $1.9 million. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. If the Company were to prevail on all unrecognized tax benefits recorded, substantially all of the unrecognized tax benefits would benefit the effective tax rate. With an average statute of limitations of approximately five years, up to $1.7 million of the unrecognized tax benefits could potentially expire in the next 12-month period, unless extended by an audit.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010. The United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has completed examinations of the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns through 2016. The Company protested certain IRS proposed material adjustments for fiscal years 2015 and 2016 and entered into the administrative appeals process with the IRS. As previously stated, the Company continues to believe the claims to be without merit and will vigorously defend its position, through litigation if necessary.

13

The Company believes that it is remote that any adjustment necessary to the reserve for income taxes over the next 12-month period will be material. However, it is possible the ultimate resolution of audits or disputes may result in a material change to the reserve for income taxes, although the quantification of such potential adjustments cannot be made at this time.

Note 11. Fair Value Measurements

As of October 31, 2018, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, short-term borrowings and trade accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. As of October 31, 2018, the estimated fair value of long-term debt with fixed interest rates was $258.6 million compared to its carrying value of $275.0 million. The fair value is estimated by discounting the projected cash flows using the rate at which similar amounts of debt could currently be borrowed. Long-term debt would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying values of long-term debt with variable interest rates approximate fair value.

Note 12. Shareholders' Equity

The Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 14.0 million shares of common stock under the Company's stock repurchase plan. This repurchase authorization is effective until terminated by the Board of Directors. During the three months ended October 31, 2018, the Company repurchased 1.6 million shares for $80.9 million. As of October 31, 2018, the Company had remaining authorization to repurchase 2.9 million shares under this plan.

On November 30, 2018, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend in the amount of 19.0 cents per common share, payable December 21, 2018, to shareholders of record as of December 11, 2018.

Note 13. Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

Changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss by component for the three months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017 are as follows (in millions):

	Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment			Pension Benefits				Derivative Financial Instruments				Total

Note 14. Guarantees

The Company and Caterpillar Inc. equally own the shares of Advanced Filtration Systems Inc. (AFSI), an unconsolidated joint venture, and guarantee certain debt of the joint venture. As of October 31, 2018, AFSI had $35.8 million of outstanding debt, of which the Company guarantees half. In addition, during the three months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded a loss of $0.3 million and earnings of $0.1 million, respectively, from this equity method investment. During the three months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded royalty income related to AFSI of $1.7 million and $1.9 million, respectively, in other income, net.

As of October 31, 2018 and July 31, 2018, the Company had a contingent liability for standby letters of credit totaling $11.2 million and $8.2 million, respectively, that have been issued and are outstanding. The letters of credit guarantee payment to third parties in the event the Company is in breach of contract terms as detailed in each letter of credit. As of October 31, 2018 and July 31, 2018, there were no amounts drawn upon these letters of credit.

Note 15. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company records provisions with respect to identified claims or lawsuits when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Claims and lawsuits are reviewed quarterly and provisions are taken or adjusted to reflect the status of a particular matter. The Company believes the recorded estimated liability in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is adequate in light of the probable and estimable outcomes. The recorded liabilities were not material to the Company’s results of operations, liquidity or financial position and the Company believes it is remote that the settlement of any of the currently identified claims or litigation will be materially in excess of what is accrued.

Note 16. Segment Reporting

The Company has identified two reportable segments: Engine Products and Industrial Products. Segment determination is based on the internal organization structure, management of operations and performance evaluation by management and the Company’s Board of Directors. Corporate and Unallocated includes corporate expenses elected to be non-allocable to the segments, such as interest expense.

The Company has an internal measurement system to evaluate performance and allocate resources. The Company’s manufacturing facilities serve both reporting segments. Therefore, the Company uses an allocation methodology to assign costs and assets to the segments. Segment assets assigned are primarily accounts receivable, inventories, property, plant and equipment and goodwill.

The Company is an integrated enterprise, characterized by substantial intersegment cooperation, cost allocations and sharing of assets. Therefore, the Company does not represent that these segments, if operated independently, would report the earnings before income taxes and other financial information shown below.

Segment detail is summarized as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2018			2017
Net sales
Engine Products segment	$	480.9		$	442.1
Industrial Products segment	220.5			202.7
Total	$	701.4		$	644.8

The Industrial Products segment sells to various dealers, distributors, OEMs of gas-fired turbines and OEMs and end users requiring clean filtration solutions and replacement filters.

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes included in Item 1 of this report.

Consolidated Results of Operations

Three months ended October 31, 2018 compared with three months ended October 31, 2017

Operating results for the three months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017 are as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2018			% of sales		2017			% of sales
Net sales	$	701.4				$	644.8
Cost of sales	463.0			66.0	%	420.5			65.2	%
Gross profit	238.4			34.0	%	224.3			34.8	%
Operating expenses	139.7			19.9	%	135.2			21.0	%
Operating income	98.7			14.1	%	89.1			13.8	%
Interest expense	4.2			0.6	%	5.2			0.8	%
Other income, net	(1.9		)	(0.3	)%	(0.8		)	(0.1	)%
Earnings before income taxes	96.4			13.7	%	84.7			13.1	%
Income taxes	22.6			3.2	%	23.8			3.7	%
Net earnings	$	73.8		10.5	%	$	60.9		9.4	%

Net earnings for the three months ended October 31, 2018 were $73.8 million, compared with net earnings of $60.9 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, an increase of $12.9 million.

Net sales for the three months ended October 31, 2018 were $701.4 million, compared with $644.8 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, an increase of $56.6 million, or 8.8%. Net sales increased$38.8 million, or 8.8%, in the Engine Products segment and increased$17.8 million, or 8.8%, in the Industrial Products segment compared with the same period in the prior fiscal year. Refer to the Segment Results of Operations section for further discussion on the Engine Products and Industrial Products segments. Net sales for the three months ended October 31, 2018 were negatively impacted by foreign currency translation, which decreased net sales by $12.7 million compared with the same period in the prior fiscal year.

Cost of sales for the three months ended October 31, 2018 was $463.0 million, compared with $420.5 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, an increase of $42.5 million, or 10.1%. Gross margin for the current year quarter was 34.0%, compared with 34.8% during the same period in the prior fiscal year. Gross margin was negatively impacted by higher raw materials and supply chain costs, combined with an unfavorable mix of sales, partially offset by pricing benefits.

Operating expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2018 were $139.7 million, compared with $135.2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, an increase of $4.5 million, or 3.4%. As a percent of net sales, operating expenses for the current year quarter were 19.9%, compared with 21.0% during the same period in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in operating

16

expenses as a percentage of sales reflects leverage on increasing sales and lower warranty costs, partially offset by costs related to the BOFA acquisition and higher freight costs.

Other income, net for the three months ended October 31, 2018 was $1.9 million, compared with $0.8 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, an increase of $1.1 million. Lower losses on foreign exchange in the current year quarter compared with the prior year quarter contributed to this increase. Interest expense was $4.2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2018, compared with $5.2 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, a decrease of $1.0 million, or 20.8%. The decrease is primarily due to the lower average level of debt outstanding in the current year quarter compared with the prior year quarter.

The effective tax rate for the three months ended October 31, 2018 was 23.5%, compared with 28.1% for the three months ended October 31, 2017. The effective tax rate for the three months ended October 31, 2018 included a net discrete tax benefit of $0.9 million related to ongoing TCJA-based global cash optimization initiatives. Excluding the impact of the TCJA adjustments, the effective tax rate for the three months ended October 31, 2018 was 24.3%. The decrease in the effective tax rate between periods was primarily due to the reduced U.S. corporate tax rate resulting from the enactment of the TCJA and higher excess tax benefits on stock-based compensation, partially offset by other matters related to the TCJA including the repeal of the U.S. manufacturing deduction and a discrete tax expense associated with changes to the deduction for executive compensation. Refer to Note 10 in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this report for further discussion of the TCJA.

Segment Results of Operations

Net sales and earnings before income taxes for the Engine Products and Industrial Products segments are summarized as follows (in millions):

	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2018			2017
Net sales:
Engine Products segment	$	480.9		$	442.1
Industrial Products segment	220.5			202.7
Total	$	701.4		$	644.8
Earnings before income taxes:
Engine Products segment	$	63.9		$	62.7
Industrial Products segment	36.6			29.4
Corporate and Unallocated (1)	(4.1		)	(7.4		)
Total	$	96.4		$	84.7

(1) Corporate and Unallocated includes corporate expenses determined to be non-allocable to the segments, such as interest expense.

Engine Products Segment

The following is a summary of net sales by product group within the Company's Engine Products segment (in millions):

	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2018		2017
Engine Products segment
Off-Road	$	76.2	$	75.0
On-Road	45.9		33.3
Aftermarket	331.2		309.1
Aerospace and Defense	27.6		24.7
Engine Products segment net sales	$	480.9	$	442.1
Engine Products segment earnings before income taxes	$	63.9	$	62.7

Net sales for the Engine Products segment for the three months ended October 31, 2018 were $480.9 million, compared with $442.1 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, an increase of $38.8 million, or 8.8%. Net sales for the Engine

17

Products segment were negatively impacted by foreign currency translation, which decreased net sales by $9.5 million compared with the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in Engine Products sales was driven by increases in Aftermarket of 7.2%, On-Road of 37.7%, Aerospace and Defense of 11.7% and Off-Road of 1.6%. Within Aftermarket, sales benefited from favorable market conditions and end-user demand, combined with growth in innovative product categories, including both air and liquid filtration products. The increase in On-Road sales reflects increasing production of heavy-duty trucks, primarily in the U.S., combined with benefits from new first-fit program wins. Market conditions across end markets for Off-Road heavy-duty equipment production remained favorable. The sales increase within Aerospace and Defense was due to strong Defense sales, reflecting sales of new equipment and replacement parts.

Earnings before income taxes for the Engine Products segment for the three months ended October 31, 2018 were $63.9 million, or 13.3% of Engine Products' sales, a decrease from 14.2% for the three months ended October 31, 2017. The decrease is primarily due to higher raw materials and supply chain costs combined with an unfavorable mix of products, partially offset by price increases and operating expense leverage on higher sales than the prior year.

Industrial Products Segment

The following is a summary of net sales by product group within the Company's Industrial Products segment (in millions):

	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2018		2017
Industrial Products segment:
Industrial Filtration Solutions	$	149.4	$	134.5
Gas Turbine Systems	25.5		26.3
Special Applications	45.6		41.9
Industrial Products segment net sales	$	220.5	$	202.7
Industrial Products segment earnings before income taxes	$	36.6	$	29.4

Net sales for the Industrial Products segment for the three months ended October 31, 2018 were $220.5 million, compared with $202.7 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, an increase of $17.8 million, or 8.8%. Net sales for the Industrial Products segment were negatively impacted by foreign currency translation, which decreased net sales by $3.2 million compared with the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in Industrial Products sales was driven by increases in Industrial Filtration Solutions of 11.1% and Special Applications of 8.8%, partially offset by a decrease in Gas Turbine Systems of 3.1%. The increase in Industrial Filtration Solutions sales was driven by growth in sales of both new equipment and replacement parts, reflecting favorable market conditions combined with the Company’s efforts to proactively manage the replacement cycle for its large customer base and grow its business in under-penetrated existing and new markets. Additionally, the acquisition of BOFA contributed sales of $1.5 million to Industrial Filtration Solutions. The increase in Special Applications sales was driven by sales of disk drive filters, reflecting temporary moderation in the secular declining hard disk drive market combined with share gains with certain customers, and growth in Membranes and Integrated Venting Solutions. The decline in Gas Turbine Systems sales reflects lower sales of replacement parts, partially offset by higher sales of new first-fit projects. While first-fit sales increased during the three-month period, sales of these products continue to be impacted by the Company's strategic decision to be more selective in pursuing new large-turbine projects combined with lower demand for new project installations.

Earnings before income taxes for the Industrial Products segment for the three months ended October 31, 2018 were $36.6 million, or 16.6% of Industrial Products' sales, an increase from 14.5% for the three months ended October 31, 2017. The earnings before income taxes percentage increase reflects a favorable mix of sales and benefits from price increases, combined with expense leverage on higher sales than the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended October 31, 2018 was $63.3 million, compared with $63.9 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, a decrease of $0.6 million. Cash provided by operating activities was relatively flat compared with the same period in the prior fiscal year as higher earnings in the current year quarter were offset by increases in net working capital. The increases in net working capital were primarily driven by cash flows provided by accounts receivable, which decreased $24.9 million during the period.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended October 31, 2018 was $124.2 million, compared with $19.1 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, an increase of $105.1 million. The increase resulted primarily from $96.0

18

million of net cash used for the BOFA acquisition and an increase in capital expenditures of $8.3 million to expand capacity and invest in technology.

Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended October 31, 2018 was $61.3 million, compared with cash used in financial activities of $1.9 million for the three months ended October 31, 2017, an increase of $63.2 million. This increase is primarily due to a net increase in proceeds of long-term debt and short-term borrowings of $91.9 million, primarily due to funding needs for the acquisition of BOFA and the increased share repurchases.

Cash and cash equivalents as of October 31, 2018 was $199.9 million, compared with $204.7 million as of July 31, 2018. The Company has capacity of $419.6 million available for further borrowing under existing credit facilities as of October 31, 2018. The Company believes that the liquidity available from the combination of expected cash generated by operating activities, existing cash and available credit under existing credit facilities will be adequate to meet cash requirements for the next twelve months, including working capital needs, debt service obligations, payment of anticipated dividends, share repurchase activity, potential acquisitions and capital expenditures.

Accounts receivable, net as of October 31, 2018 was $542.4 million, compared with $534.6 million as of July 31, 2018, an increase of $7.8 million. Days sales outstanding increased to 69 days as of October 31, 2018, compared with 66 as of July 31, 2018. Days sales outstanding is calculated using the count back method, which calculates the number of days of most recent revenue that is reflected in the net accounts receivable balance. These increases were driven by the change in the mix of sales to customers with longer payment terms.

Inventories, net as of October 31, 2018 was $360.5 million, compared with $334.1 million as of July 31, 2018, an increase of $26.4 million. Inventory turns were 5.3 times per year as of October 31, 2018, compared to 5.6 times per year as of July 31, 2018. Inventory turns are calculated by taking the annualized cost of sales based on the trailing three-month period divided by the average of the beginning and ending net inventory values of the three-month period. These changes were primarily driven by inventory increases across the regions to meet current and expected future customer demand given the sales momentum.

Long-term debt outstanding was $630.6 million as of October 31, 2018, compared with $499.6 million as of July 31, 2018, an increase of $131.0 million. This increase is primarily due to funding needs for the acquisition of BOFA, share repurchases and dividend payments. As of October 31, 2018, total debt, including long-term debt and short-term borrowings, represented 45.2% of total capitalization, defined as total debt plus total shareholders’ equity, compared with 38.8% as of July 31, 2018.

The Company guarantees 50% of certain debt of its joint venture, AFSI, as further discussed in Note 14 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management of the Company, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period. Based on their evaluation, as of the end of the period covered, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed so that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management of the Company, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2018, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company believes the recorded estimated liability in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for claims or litigation is adequate in light of the probable and estimable outcomes. Any recorded liabilities were not material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity and the Company believes it is remote that the settlement of any of the currently identified claims or litigation will be materially in excess of what is accrued. The Company records provisions when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Claims and litigation are reviewed quarterly and provisions are taken or adjusted to reflect the status of a particular matter.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There are inherent risks and uncertainties associated with the Company’s global operations that involve the manufacturing and sale of products for highly demanding customer applications throughout the world. These risks and uncertainties could adversely affect the Company’s operating performances or financial condition. The “Risk Factors” section in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2018 outlines the risks and uncertainties that the Company believes are the most material to its business.

EX-10.A

Exhibit 10-A

2010 MASTER STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT

This Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of the date specified in the individual grant summary, by and between Donaldson Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Donaldson”) and the person specified in the individual grant summary, an employee of Donaldson or an Affiliate (the “Employee”). For purposes of the Agreement, the “Employer” means Donaldson or any Affiliate that employs the Employee.

Donaldson has adopted the 2010 Master Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) which permits the grant of an award of Restricted Stock Units representing the right to receive shares of common stock, par value US $5.00 per share, of Donaldson (“Common Stock”) and dividend equivalent amounts corresponding to the shares. Donaldson is now granting this award under the Plan and in consideration of the Employee’s and Donaldson’s covenants in this Agreement.

1.Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Donaldson hereby grants to the Employee the number Restricted Stock Units specified in the grant summary for no cash consideration, subject to the following terms and conditions:

a.This award is granted pursuant to the Plan and is subject to all of the terms and conditions of such Plan. The Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and the Plan Prospectus. Capitalized terms not defined in this Agreement shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

b.The date of grant shall be as specified on the Employee’s individual grant summary made available on-line (“Grant Date”).

c.Neither the Restricted Stock Units, nor the shares of Common Stock to which the units relate, may be sold, assigned, hypothecated or transferred (including without limitation, transfer by gift or donation) until the applicable vesting dates provided below (“Restriction Period”). If the application of the vesting percentages below results in the vesting of a fractional Restricted Stock Unit, the number of Restricted Stock Units vested shall be rounded to the nearest whole number. Restricted Stock Units granted to the Employee shall be credited to a book-keeping account in the Employee’s name. This account shall be a record of book-keeping entries only and shall be utilized solely as a device for the measurement and determination of the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the Employee in settlement of the Restricted Stock Units pursuant to this Agreement.

Vesting Dates:Cumulative Units Vested:

d.Unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be cancelled and forfeited if, at any time within the Restriction Period, the Employee’s employment terminates for any reason (including without limitation termination by the Employer, with or without cause) other than for reasons of death, normal retirement at or after age 55, or disability (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code). Upon termination of the Employee’s employment within the Restriction Period by reason of death, normal retirement at or after age 55 or disability, the Restriction Period shall end upon such termination, and in lieu of the vesting schedule above, the unvested Restricted Stock Units shall vest as to the number (rounded to the nearest whole share) of Restricted Stock Units obtained by multiplying the unvested Restricted Stock Units by a fraction formed from dividing the full number of months of the Employee’s employment since the Grant Date by thirty-six (36). The remainder of Restricted Stock Units shall be cancelled and forfeited. For the avoidance of doubt, a transfer of employment between Donaldson Affiliates shall not constitute a termination of employment for purposes of this Agreement.

e.Upon the expiration of the Restriction Period, Donaldson shall cause to be issued to the Employee, or to the Employee’s designated beneficiary or estate (if no designated beneficiary) in the event of the Employee’s death, one (1) share of Common Stock in payment and settlement of each vested Restricted Stock Unit. Donaldson shall cause the shares of Common Stock issuable in connection with the vesting of any such Restricted Stock Units to be issued as soon as practicable after the Restriction Period, but in all events no later than 30 days after the Restriction Period, and the Employee shall have no power to affect the timing of such issuance. Such issuance shall be evidenced by a stock certificate or appropriate entry on the books of Donaldson or a duly authorized transfer agent of Donaldson and shall be in complete settlement and satisfaction of such vested Restricted Stock Units.

f.If the Employee has attained or will attain age 55 prior to the expiration of the Restriction Period applicable to Restricted Stock Units, such Restricted Stock Units shall be treated as “deferred compensation” subject to section 409A of Code. In such case, if those Restricted Stock Units vest and become payable on account of the Employee’s termination of employment, the Restricted Stock Units shall not become payable (even though non-forfeitable) unless the termination constitutes a “separation from service” as defined in Treasury Regulations promulgated under section 409A of the Code. In addition, if the Employee is a Specified Employee, payment on account of separation from service hereunder shall be made as of the date that is six months following the Employee’s separation from service (or, if earlier, upon the Employee’s death).

g.Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Restricted Period shall lapse and all of the unvested Restricted Stock Units then outstanding and their corresponding shares of Common Stock shall become fully vested in the event of a Change in Control as defined in Section 3 below.

2.Execution of Employee Agreement and Non-Competition Agreement. In consideration of the grant of Restricted Stock Units and other good and valuable consideration associated with the Employee’s employment with the Employer, the Employee agrees to execute an agreement (or agreements) containing restrictive covenants concerning the Employee’s behavior both during employment and following termination of employment that is satisfactory to Donaldson (the “Employee Agreement”). The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the grant of Restricted Stock Units is expressly conditioned upon the Employee’s execution of the Employee Agreement, and the Employee further acknowledges and agrees that the grant of Restricted Stock Units is adequate consideration for the Employee’s execution of the Employee Agreement and the restrictive covenants contained therein.

3.Accelerated Vesting upon Change in Control. In the event of a “Change in Control” of Donaldson during the Restricted Period, the unvested Restricted Stock Units then outstanding shall immediately become fully vested and the underlying shares of Common Stock shall be issued to the Employee. The term “Change in Control” shall have the following meaning assigned to it in this Agreement. A “Change in Control” of Donaldson shall have occurred if (i) any “person” as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (other than Donaldson, any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of Donaldson or any corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of Donaldson in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of stock of Donaldson), either is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of Donaldson representing 30% or more of the combined voting power of Donaldson’s then outstanding securities, (ii) during any period of two (2) consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board of Directors, and any new Director (other than a Director designated by a person who has entered into an agreement with Donaldson to effect a transaction described in clause (i), (iii) or (iv) of this subparagraph) whose election by the Board of Directors or nomination for election by Donaldson’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the Directors then still in office who either were Directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, unless the approval of the election or nomination for election of such new Directors was in connection with an actual or threatened election or proxy contest, (iii) the stockholders of Donaldson approve a merger or consolidation of Donaldson with any other corporation, other than (A) a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of Donaldson outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 80% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of

Donaldson or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation or (B) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of Donaldson (or similar transaction) in which no “person” (as hereinabove defined) acquires more than 30% of the combined voting power of Donaldson’s then outstanding securities or (iv) the stockholders of Donaldson approve a plan of complete liquidation of Donaldson or an agreement for the sale or disposition by Donaldson of all or substantially all of Donaldson’s assets or any transaction having a similar effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any payment due under this Section 3 is deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, and if the Change in Control is not a “change in control event” that serves as a permissible payment event under U.S. Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(i)(5) or such other regulation or guidance issued under Section 409A of the Code, then the Restricted Stock Units shall vest upon the Change in Control as provided above but issuance of the shares subject to the award shall be delayed until the end of the Restriction Period.

4.Tax and Social Insurance Contributions Withholding.

a.Regardless of any action Donaldson or the Employer takes with respect to any or all income tax (including U.S. federal, state and local taxes and/or non-U.S. taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), the Employee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by the Employee is and remains the Employee’s responsibility, and that Donaldson and the Employer: (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the award of Restricted Stock Units, including the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the issuance of shares of Common Stock, the subsequent sale of any shares of Common Stock and the receipt of any dividends or dividend equivalent amounts; and (b) do not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Unit award to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items.

b.The Employee hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Employee, as permitted under applicable law, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for any sums required to satisfy any withholding obligation for Tax Related Items, which arise in connection with the Restricted Stock Units, including, without limitation, obligations arising upon (i) the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, or (ii) the issuance of shares of Common Stock. Donaldson shall have no obligation to issue the shares of Common Stock until the withholding obligations of Donaldson or the Employer for Tax-Related Items have been satisfied by the Employee. Unless otherwise prohibited under applicable law, Donaldson may withhold a number of whole shares of Common Stock (rounded up to the nearest whole share) otherwise deliverable to the Employee in settlement of the Restricted Stock Unit award to satisfy all or any portion of Donaldson’s or the Employer’s withholding obligation for Tax-Related Items. If the Employee is subject to taxation in more than one jurisdiction, the Employee acknowledges that Donaldson, the Employer or another Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

c.If shares of Common Stock are withheld to cover Tax-Related Items, the number of whole shares of Common Stock withheld shall have a Fair Market Value as determined by Donaldson as of the date on which the withholding obligations for Tax-Related Items arises, sufficient to cover any withholding obligations determined by the applicable statutory withholding rates or, in the absence of any statutory withholding rates, by Donaldson in its sole discretion. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that should the shares of Common Stock withheld be in excess of the amounts required to be withheld under applicable law, Donaldson shall refund the excess to the Employee, without interest, as soon as administratively practicable. Any adverse consequences to the Employee resulting from the procedure permitted hereunder shall be the sole responsibility of the Employee.

5.Miscellaneous.

a.The Restricted Stock Units do not entitle the Employee to any rights of a stockholder of Donaldson with respect to shares of Common Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units until such shares have been issued to the Employee upon settlement of the Restricted Stock Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Employee shall accumulate an unvested right to dividend equivalent amounts on the shares of Common

Stock underlying Restricted Stock Units if cash dividends are declared by Donaldson on the shares on or after the Grant Date. Each time a dividend is paid on the shares of Common Stock, the Employee shall accrue an additional number of Restricted Stock Units (rounded to the nearest whole share) having a Fair Market Value on the dividend payment date equal to the amount of the dividend payable on the Employee’s Restricted Stock Units on the dividend record date. The additional Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to the same vesting, forfeiture and share delivery terms in Section 1 and Section 3 above as if they had been awarded on the Grant Date. The Employee shall not be entitled to dividend equivalents with respect to dividends declared prior to the Grant Date. All dividend equivalents accumulated with respect to forfeited Restricted Stock Units shall also be irrevocably forfeited. As of the date of issuance of shares underlying Restricted Stock Units, the Employee shall have all of the rights of a stockholder of Donaldson with respect to any shares issued pursuant hereto.

b.Upon any stock dividend or split, recapitalization, consolidation, or the like, occurring after the date hereof, as a result of which securities of any class shall be issued in respect of outstanding shares of Common Stock, or shares of Common Stock shall be changed into the same or a different number of shares or other securities of the same or other class or classes, then the Human Resources Committee of Donaldson’s Board of Directors shall determine if any equitable adjustment is necessary to protect the Employee against dilution and shall determine the terms of such adjustment, if any. In the case of any stock dividend or split effected after the date hereof, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued hereunder shall be automatically adjusted to prevent dilution of the potential benefits intended to be made available hereunder.

c.Neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall (i) be deemed to give the Employee a right to remain an employee of the Employer, (ii) restrict the right of the Employer to discharge the Employee, with or without cause, or (iii) be deemed to be a written contract of employment.

d.This award of Restricted Stock Units shall be effective only after the Employee agrees to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Employee shall not disclose either the contents or any of the terms and conditions of this award to any other person and agrees that Donaldson shall have the right in its sole discretion to immediately terminate the award of Restricted Stock Units in the event of such disclosure by the Employee.

e.The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Plan is discretionary in nature and limited in duration, and may be amended, cancelled, or terminated by Donaldson, in its sole discretion, at any time. Any amendment, modification or termination of the Plan shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions the Employee’s employment with the Employer. The grant of the Restricted Stock Unit award under the Plan is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive an award or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock Units in the future. Future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of Donaldson, including, but not limited to, the form and timing of an award, the number of shares of Common Stock subject to an award and the vesting provisions.

f.The Employee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary. The value of the Employee’s Restricted Stock Unit award is an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of the Employee’s employment contract, if any. As such, the Employee’s award of Restricted Stock Units is not part of normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension, or retirement benefits or similar payments.

g.The future value of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Restricted Stock Unit award is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty. The value of any underlying shares of Common Stock issued hereunder may increase or

h.This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, except with respect to its rules relating to conflicts of law. The Employee consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of the State of Minnesota in connection with any controversies

relating to or arising out of this Agreement, and agrees that any and all litigation relating to or arising out of this Agreement shall be venued in Hennepin County, Minnesota.

i.Donaldson, in its sole discretion, may decide to deliver any documents related to the Restricted Stock Units or other awards granted to the Employee under the Plan by electronic means. The Employee hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by Donaldson or a third party designated by Donaldson.

j.The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of the Plan or this Agreement will not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement, and each provision of the Plan and this Agreement will be severable and enforceable to the extent permitted by law.

6.Consent to Collection/Processing/Transfer of Personal Data. Pursuant to applicable personal data protection laws, Donaldson hereby notifies the Employee of the following in relation to the Employee’s personal Data (as defined below) and the collection, use, processing and transfer of such Data in relation to Donaldson’s grant of this award and the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The collection, use, processing and transfer of the Employee’s Data is necessary for Donaldson’s administration of the Plan and the Employee’s participation in the Plan, and the Employee’s denial and/or objection to the collection, use, processing and transfer of Data may affect the Employee’s participation in the Plan. As such, the Employee hereby voluntarily acknowledges and consents (where required under applicable law) to the collection, use, processing and transfer of Data as described in this paragraph.

a.Donaldson and the Employer hold certain personal information about the Employee, including the Employee’s name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number, passport number or other employee identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of Common Stock or directorships held in Donaldson, details of all stock awards or any other entitlement to shares of Common Stock awarded, canceled, purchased, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor, for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan (“Data”). Data maybe provided by the Employee or collected, where lawful, from third parties, and Donaldson will process Data for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan. Data processing will take place through electronic and non-electronic means according to logics and procedures strictly correlated to the purposes for which Data are collected and with confidentiality and security provisions as set forth by applicable laws and regulations in the Employee’s country of residence. Data processing operations will be performed minimizing the use of personal and identification data when such operations are unnecessary for the processing purposes sought. Data will be accessible within Donaldson’s organization only by those persons requiring access for purposes of the implementation, administration and operation of the Plan and for the Employee’s participation in the Plan.

b.Donaldson and the Employer will transfer Data amongst themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Employee’s participation in the Plan, and Donaldson and the Employer may each further transfer Data to any third parties assisting Donaldson in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. As permitted by applicable personal data protection laws, if Donaldson or the Employer becomes involved in a merger, acquisition, sale of assets, joint venture, securities offering, bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, or other transaction or if the ownership of all or substantially all of Donaldson or the Employer otherwise changes, Donaldson or the Employer may transfer Data to a third party or parties in connection therewith. These recipients may be located in the European Economic Area, or elsewhere throughout the world, such as the United States. The Employee hereby authorizes (where required under applicable law) them to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of shares of Common Stock on the Employee’s behalf to a broker or other third party with whom the Employee may elect to deposit any shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the Plan.

c.The Employee may, at any time, exercise his or her rights provided under applicable personal data protection laws, which may include the right to (a) obtain confirmation as to the existence of Data, (b) verify the content, origin and accuracy of Data, (c) request the integration, update, amendment, deletion, or blockage (for breach of applicable laws) of Data, and (d) to oppose, for legal reasons, the collection, processing or transfer of Data which is not necessary or required for the implementation, administration and/or operation of the Plan and the Employee’s participation in the Plan. The Employee may seek to exercise these rights by contacting the Employer’s local HR manager or Donaldson’s Human Resources Department. The Employee understands that he or she is providing the consent herein on a purely voluntary basis. If the Employee does not consent or later seeks to remove his or her consent, the Employee’s salary from or employment with the Employer will not be affected; the only consequence of refusing or withdrawing his or her consent is that Donaldson would not be able to grant the Employee Restricted Stock Units or other equity awards or participate in the Plan.

d.Finally, the Employee understands that Donaldson may rely on a different legal basis for the processing and/or transfer of Data in the future and/or request that the Employee provide another data privacy consent or acknowledgment. If applicable and upon request of Donaldson or the Employer, the Employee agrees to provide an executed acknowledgment or data privacy consent form (or any other acknowledgment, agreement or consent) to Donaldson or the Employer that Donaldson and/or the Employer may deem necessary to obtain under the data privacy laws in the Employee’s country, either now or in the future. The Employee understands that he or she will not be able to participate in the Plan if the Employee fails to execute any such acknowledgment or consent requested by Donaldson or the Employer.

By execution of this Agreement as of the Grant Date, the Employee hereby accepts and agrees to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Donaldson Company, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of earnings, comprehensive income, financial position and cash flows have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three month period ended October 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for future periods. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet information was derived from the Company's audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. For further information, refer to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2018.

New Accounting Standards Recently Adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), which amended revenue recognition guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires expanded disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required about customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. In 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-11, ASU 2016-12 and ASU 2016-20 to clarify, among other things, the implementation guidance related to principal versus agent considerations, identifying performance obligations and accounting for licenses of intellectual property. This accounting guidance was effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The standard was adopted using the modified retrospective method, applying the guidance to those contracts which were not completed as of July 31, 2018, with the cumulative effect of adoption recognized during the first quarter. Refer to Note 6 for the impact of the adoption of this new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business (ASU 2017-01). The new guidance provides a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities is a business. The amendments provide more consistency in applying the guidance, reduce the costs of application and make the definition of a business more operable. ASU 2017-01 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and it did not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715) (ASU 2017-07). The new guidance requires employers to disaggregate and present separately the current service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost within the consolidated statement of earnings. ASU 2017-07 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2017-07 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 using the retrospective method. This resulted in a reclassification of net benefit costs in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, with a decrease of $1.6 million in operating income and a corresponding $1.6 million increase to other income, net for the three months ended October 31, 2017.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (ASU 2017-12), which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements and make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. The guidance expands the ability to hedge non-financial and financial risk components, reduces complexity in fair value hedges of interest rate risk, eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and eases certain hedge effectiveness assessment requirements. ASU 2017-12 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and it did not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which requires lessees to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for substantially all leases. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 on a modified retrospective basis. The Company has established a project team that is currently evaluating the population of leased assets to assess the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). This guidance introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. Financial instruments impacted include accounts receivable, trade receivables, other financial assets measured at amortized cost and other off-balance sheet credit exposures. The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of ASU 2016-13 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2018-02). The guidance allows a company to elect to reclassify from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) to retained earnings the stranded tax effects from the adoption of the newly enacted federal corporate tax rate as a result of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amount of the reclassification is calculated as the difference between the amount initially charged to other comprehensive income (OCI) at the previously enacted tax rate that remains in AOCI and the amount that would have been charged using the newly enacted tax rate, excluding any valuation allowance previously charged to income. ASU 2018-02 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-02 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (ASU 2018-15). Theamendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual periods for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-15 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Acquisitions

Acquisitions

On October 18, 2018, the Company acquired 88% of the shares of BOFA International LTD (BOFA), headquartered in the United Kingdom, for cash consideration of $98.2 million less cash acquired of $2.2 million. BOFA designs, develops and manufactures fume extraction systems across a wide range of industrial air filtration applications. The acquisition will allow Donaldson to accelerate its global growth in the fume collection business and add additional filtration technology to the Company's existing product lines. The fair values assigned to the acquired assets and liabilities of BOFA were approximately $12.2 million of net tangible assets, $48.8 million of identifiable intangible assets, $71.0 million of goodwill, $8.6 million of deferred tax liabilities and $14.3 million of assumed debt. The assumed debt was repaid in October 2018. The identifiable intangible assets were related to customer relationships, patents, trademarks and technology and have estimated useful lives ranging from 5 to 15 years. The acquired intangible assets including goodwill are not deductible for tax purposes. The purchase price allocation is preliminary pending the outcome of the final valuation of the net assets acquired. The Company is reporting BOFA’s results of operations within the Industrial Products segment. Transaction costs were expensed as incurred and were not significant for the three months ended October 31, 2018.

The acquisition also provides call and put options that, if exercised by either the Company or the minority interest holders after a certain period of time, would obligate the Company to purchase the remaining 12% of the shares of BOFA at a price indexed to the performance of the acquired entity. Due to the redemption features, the minority interest holders’ value is classified as a redeemable non-controlling interest in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at the fair value upon acquisition of $13.1 million.

Pro forma financial information for this acquisition has not been presented because it is not material to the Company's consolidated results of operations.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

Earnings Per Share

The Company’s basic net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares. The Company’s diluted net earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares and common share equivalents relating to stock options and stock incentive plans. Certain outstanding options were excluded from the diluted net earnings per share calculations because their exercise prices are greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock during those periods. Options excluded from the diluted net earnings per share calculations were 0.8 million and zero for the three months ended October 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The following table presents the information necessary to calculate basic and diluted net earnings per share (in millions, except per share amounts):

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]

Revenue

Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue on a wide range of filtration solutions sold to customers in many industries around the globe. The vast majority of the Company’s performance obligations within customer sales contracts are for manufactured filtration systems and replacement parts. The Company does have limited services, such as nonrecurring engineering (NRE) and installation. Customer contracts may include multiple performance obligations and the transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price.

Revenue Recognition Policy

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the fulfillment of performance obligations. The transaction price of a contract could be reduced by variable consideration including product refunds, returns, volume rebates and discounts in the determination of net sales. The Company primarily relies on historical experience and anticipated future performance to estimate the variable consideration. Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur when the contingency is resolved. The Company also accounts for amounts billed to customers for reimbursement of shipping and handling as fulfillment costs by recording these amounts as revenue and accruing the costs when the related revenue is recognized.

For most customer contracts, the Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer. For product sales, control is typically deemed to have transferred in accordance with the shipping terms, either at the time of shipment from the plants or distribution centers or the time of delivery to the customers. Revenue is recognized for services upon completion of those services.

Due to the customized nature of some of the Company’s products, together with contractual provisions in certain customer contracts that provide the Company with an enforceable right to payment of the transaction price for performance completed to date, revenue is recognized for these contracts over time. For these contracts, the Company recognizes revenue on products by an output measure of production, which fairly depicts the amount of revenue the Company is entitled to. The timing of revenue recognized from these products is slightly accelerated compared to revenue recognized at the point in time of shipment or delivery. Revenue generated from NRE services is also satisfied over time, measured as contractual milestones are achieved as this represents value transferred to the customer.

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and other costs to fulfill a contract are required to be capitalized. The only such cost material to the Company is sales commission expense. The Company has elected to expense these costs of obtaining a contract as incurred when the related contract period is less than one year. The Company does not pay upfront sales commissions on contracts when the related contract period is greater than one year, thus has not capitalized any amounts as of October 31, 2018.

Industrial Products segment net sales	220.5		202.7
Total net sales	$	701.4	$	644.8

Contract Assets and Liabilities

The satisfaction of performance obligations and the resulting recognition of revenue typically corresponds with billing of the customer. In limited circumstances, the customer may be billed at a time later than when revenue is recognized, resulting in contract assets, which are reported in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contract assets were $13.1 million as of October 31, 2018. In other limited circumstances, the Company will require a down payment from the customer prior to the satisfaction of performance obligations. This results in contract liabilities, or deferred revenue, which is reported in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, depending on when revenue is expected to be recognized. Contract liabilities were $12.0 million and $10.5 million as of October 31, 2018 and July 31, 2018, respectively.

The Company will recognize revenue in future periods related to remaining performance obligations for certain open contracts. Generally, these contracts have terms of one year or less. The amount of revenue related to unsatisfied performance obligations in which the original duration of the contract is greater than one year is not significant.

Adoption of ASC 606

Note 1 describes the requirements of the new revenue recognition standard, ASC 606. The cumulative effect of the adoption on the Company’s August 1, 2018 opening balance sheet is as follows (in millions):

	Balance at July 31, 2018		Adjustments for ASC 606			Balance at August 1, 2018
Assets
Inventories, net	$	334.1	$	(7.3	)	$	326.8
Prepaid expense and other current assets	52.3		14.0			66.3
Liabilities
Other current liabilities	86.6		0.3			86.9
Deferred income taxes	4.2		1.1			5.3
Equity
Retained earnings	1,122.1		5.3			1,127.4

These adjustments primarily related to certain contracts that qualify for revenue recognition over time under the new standard. This change does not have a material impact on revenue recognized during the three months ended October 31, 2018.

In addition, the adoption of ASC 606 impacted one set of contracts within the Engine Products segment in which Donaldson is deemed to be the principal under the new standard because the Company has control through the manufacturing of products prior to the sale of those products to the customer. For these contracts, the previous practice of recognizing revenue on a net basis, in which the amount of net sales recorded is the net amount retained after paying product costs to suppliers, has changed under ASC 606 to recognizing revenue on a gross basis, in which the amount of net sales recorded is the gross amount received from the customer, with corresponding product costs recorded as cost of sales. This change did not result in a cumulative effect adjustment under the modified retrospective method of adoption since there is no impact to the timing of revenue recognition but it has increased net sales and cost of sales on a prospective basis. The increase in net sales and cost of sales for this change was $5.1 million for the three months ended October 31, 2018.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized using the fair-value method for all awards. The Company determines the fair value of stock option awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Options are granted whereby the option exercise price is equivalent to the market price of the Company's common stock at the date of grant. For the three months ended October 31, 2018, the Company recorded pretax stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options of $4.9 million and recorded $1.1 million of related tax benefits. For the three months ended October 31, 2017, the Company recorded pretax stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options of $3.8 million and recorded $1.2 million of related tax benefits. In addition, for the three months ended October 31, 2018, the Company recorded expense associated with performance-based awards of $1.7 million. For the three months ended October 31, 2017, the Company recorded expense associated with performance-based awards of $2.7 million.

Retirement Benefits, Description [Abstract]

Employee Benefit Plans

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company and certain of its international subsidiaries have defined benefit pension plans for many of their hourly and salaried employees. There are two types of U.S. plans. The first type of U.S. plan (Hourly Pension Plan) is a traditional defined benefit pension plan primarily for union production employees. The second plan (Salaried Pension Plan) is for some salaried and non-union production employees that provides defined benefits pursuant to a cash balance feature whereby a participant accumulates a benefit comprised of a percentage of current salary that varies with years of service, interest credits and transition credits. The Company no longer allows entrants into the U.S. Salaried Pension Plan and the employees no longer accrue Company contribution credits under the plan. Instead, eligible employees receive a 3% annual Company retirement contribution to their 401(k) in addition to the Company’s normal 401(k) match. The non-U.S. plans generally provide pension benefits based on years of service and compensation level.

Net periodic benefit costs for the Company’s pension plans include the following components (in millions):

	Three Months Ended October 31,
	2018			2017
Net periodic benefit costs:
Service cost	$	1.5		$	2.0
Interest cost	4.1			3.7
Expected return on assets	(6.6		)	(6.5		)
Prior service cost amortization	0.1			0.1
Actuarial loss amortization	1.1			1.1
Net periodic benefit costs	$	0.2		$	0.4

The Company’s general funding policy is to make at least the minimum required contributions as required by applicable regulations, plus any additional amounts that it determines to be appropriate. For the three months ended October 31, 2018, the Company made required contributions of $1.0 million to its non-qualified U.S. pension plans and $0.3 million to its non-U.S. pension plans. The estimated minimum funding requirement for the Company’s qualified U.S. plans for the plan year ending July 31, 2019 is $3.1 million. In accordance with the Pension Protection Act of 2006, this contribution obligation may be met with existing credit balances that resulted from payments above the minimum obligation in prior years. The Company has sufficient credit balances to meet the minimum obligation for the plan year ending July 31, 2019. The Company estimates it will contribute an additional $1.0 million to its non-U.S. pension plans during the remainder of fiscal 2019 based upon the local government prescribed funding requirements. Future estimates of the Company’s required pension plan contributions may change significantly depending on the actual rate of return on plan assets, discount rates and regulatory requirements.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) was enacted into law. The TCJA significantly reforms the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, including but not limited to reducing the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent and moving toward a territorial tax system with a one-time transition tax imposed on previously unremitted foreign earnings and profits.

Staff Accounting Bulletin 118 (SAB 118) includes additional guidance allowing companies to use a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the TCJA enactment date to account for the impacts of the law in their financial statements.

There have been no material measurement period adjustments made during the three months ended October 31, 2018 related to the provisional amounts recorded and disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2018.

During the three months ended October 31, 2018, the Company made the accounting policy election to treat taxes related to the Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (GILTI) provision of the TCJA as a current period expense when incurred.

Although the Company believes it has made reasonable estimates in accounting for the impacts of the TCJA, these tax charges and benefits are provisional, as the Company is still analyzing certain aspects of the legislation and refining calculations as information becomes available during the measurement period as allowed by SAB 118. The accounting for the income tax effects of the TCJA is expected to be completed during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and any future adjustments will be recognized as discrete income tax expense or benefit in the period the adjustments are determined.

As of October 31, 2018, the gross unrecognized tax benefits were $19.4 million and accrued interest and penalties on these unrecognized tax benefits were $1.9 million. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. If the Company were to prevail on all unrecognized tax benefits recorded, substantially all of the unrecognized tax benefits would benefit the effective tax rate. With an average statute of limitations of approximately five years, up to $1.7 million of the unrecognized tax benefits could potentially expire in the next 12-month period, unless extended by an audit.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and foreign income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2010. The United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has completed examinations of the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns through 2016. The Company protested certain IRS proposed material adjustments for fiscal years 2015 and 2016 and entered into the administrative appeals process with the IRS. As previously stated, the Company continues to believe the claims to be without merit and will vigorously defend its position, through litigation if necessary.

The Company believes that it is remote that any adjustment necessary to the reserve for income taxes over the next 12-month period will be material. However, it is possible the ultimate resolution of audits or disputes may result in a material change to the reserve for income taxes, although the quantification of such potential adjustments cannot be made at this time.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

As of October 31, 2018, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, short-term borrowings and trade accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. As of October 31, 2018, the estimated fair value of long-term debt with fixed interest rates was $258.6 million compared to its carrying value of $275.0 million. The fair value is estimated by discounting the projected cash flows using the rate at which similar amounts of debt could currently be borrowed. Long-term debt would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying values of long-term debt with variable interest rates approximate fair value.

Segment Reporting

The Company has identified two reportable segments: Engine Products and Industrial Products. Segment determination is based on the internal organization structure, management of operations and performance evaluation by management and the Company’s Board of Directors. Corporate and Unallocated includes corporate expenses elected to be non-allocable to the segments, such as interest expense.

The Company has an internal measurement system to evaluate performance and allocate resources. The Company’s manufacturing facilities serve both reporting segments. Therefore, the Company uses an allocation methodology to assign costs and assets to the segments. Segment assets assigned are primarily accounts receivable, inventories, property, plant and equipment and goodwill.

The Company is an integrated enterprise, characterized by substantial intersegment cooperation, cost allocations and sharing of assets. Therefore, the Company does not represent that these segments, if operated independently, would report the earnings before income taxes and other financial information shown below.

New Accounting Standards Recently Adopted and New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

New Accounting Standards Recently Adopted In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606), which amended revenue recognition guidance to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires expanded disclosures relating to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Additionally, qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required about customer contracts, significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. In 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-11, ASU 2016-12 and ASU 2016-20 to clarify, among other things, the implementation guidance related to principal versus agent considerations, identifying performance obligations and accounting for licenses of intellectual property. This accounting guidance was effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The standard was adopted using the modified retrospective method, applying the guidance to those contracts which were not completed as of July 31, 2018, with the cumulative effect of adoption recognized during the first quarter. Refer to Note 6 for the impact of the adoption of this new standard.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business (ASU 2017-01). The new guidance provides a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities is a business. The amendments provide more consistency in applying the guidance, reduce the costs of application and make the definition of a business more operable. ASU 2017-01 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2017-01 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and it did not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715) (ASU 2017-07). The new guidance requires employers to disaggregate and present separately the current service cost component from the other components of net benefit cost within the consolidated statement of earnings. ASU 2017-07 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2017-07 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 using the retrospective method. This resulted in a reclassification of net benefit costs in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, with a decrease of $1.6 million in operating income and a corresponding $1.6 million increase to other income, net for the three months ended October 31, 2017.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging: Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities (ASU 2017-12), which improves the financial reporting of hedging relationships to better portray the economic results of an entity's risk management activities in its financial statements and make certain targeted improvements to simplify the application of the hedge accounting guidance. The guidance expands the ability to hedge non-financial and financial risk components, reduces complexity in fair value hedges of interest rate risk, eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and eases certain hedge effectiveness assessment requirements. ASU 2017-12 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 and it did not have a material impact on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which requires lessees to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for substantially all leases. This accounting guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 on a modified retrospective basis. The Company has established a project team that is currently evaluating the population of leased assets to assess the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). This guidance introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. Financial instruments impacted include accounts receivable, trade receivables, other financial assets measured at amortized cost and other off-balance sheet credit exposures. The new guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of ASU 2016-13 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2018-02). The guidance allows a company to elect to reclassify from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) to retained earnings the stranded tax effects from the adoption of the newly enacted federal corporate tax rate as a result of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The amount of the reclassification is calculated as the difference between the amount initially charged to other comprehensive income (OCI) at the previously enacted tax rate that remains in AOCI and the amount that would have been charged using the newly enacted tax rate, excluding any valuation allowance previously charged to income. ASU 2018-02 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-02 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (ASU 2018-15). Theamendments in this update align the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software (and hosting arrangements that include an internal-use software license). The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual periods for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. The Company is evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-15 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue Recognition Policy

Revenue Recognition Policy

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for the fulfillment of performance obligations. The transaction price of a contract could be reduced by variable consideration including product refunds, returns, volume rebates and discounts in the determination of net sales. The Company primarily relies on historical experience and anticipated future performance to estimate the variable consideration. Revenue is recognized to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur when the contingency is resolved. The Company also accounts for amounts billed to customers for reimbursement of shipping and handling as fulfillment costs by recording these amounts as revenue and accruing the costs when the related revenue is recognized.

For most customer contracts, the Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when control of the goods or services is transferred to the customer. For product sales, control is typically deemed to have transferred in accordance with the shipping terms, either at the time of shipment from the plants or distribution centers or the time of delivery to the customers. Revenue is recognized for services upon completion of those services.

Due to the customized nature of some of the Company’s products, together with contractual provisions in certain customer contracts that provide the Company with an enforceable right to payment of the transaction price for performance completed to date, revenue is recognized for these contracts over time. For these contracts, the Company recognizes revenue on products by an output measure of production, which fairly depicts the amount of revenue the Company is entitled to. The timing of revenue recognized from these products is slightly accelerated compared to revenue recognized at the point in time of shipment or delivery. Revenue generated from NRE services is also satisfied over time, measured as contractual milestones are achieved as this represents value transferred to the customer.

Incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer and other costs to fulfill a contract are required to be capitalized. The only such cost material to the Company is sales commission expense. The Company has elected to expense these costs of obtaining a contract as incurred when the related contract period is less than one year. The Company does not pay upfront sales commissions on contracts when the related contract period is greater than one year, thus has not capitalized any amounts as of October 31, 2018.
