NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited; in millions, except per share data and asbestos-related claims)

(1)    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Unless otherwise indicated, “we,” “us” and “our” mean SPX Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (“SPX”).

We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules and regulations, certain footnotes or other financial information normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) can be condensed or omitted. The financial statements represent our accounts after the elimination of intercompany transactions and, in our opinion, include the adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary for their fair presentation. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts provided in these Notes pertain to continuing operations only (see Note 3 for information on discontinued operations).

We account for investments in unconsolidated companies where we exercise significant influence but do not have control using the equity method. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), we perform a qualitative analysis that considers the design of the VIE, the nature of our involvement and the variable interests held by other parties to determine which party has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and which party has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. All of our VIEs are considered immaterial, individually and in aggregate, to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Sale of Transformers Solutions Business

On October 1, 2021, we completed the previously announced sale of SPX Transformer Solutions, Inc. (“Transformer Solutions”) pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 8, 2021 with GE-Prolec Transformers, Inc. (the “Purchaser”) and Prolec GE Internacional, S. de R.L. de C.V. We transferred all of the outstanding common stock of Transformer Solutions to the Purchaser for an aggregate cash purchase price of $645.0 (the “Transaction”). The purchase price is subject to potential adjustment based on Transformer Solutions’ cash, debt and working capital on the date the Transaction was consummated, as well as for specified transaction expenses and other specified items, with the net cash proceeds received totaling $620.6. After the sale of Transformer Solutions, we have only a limited presence in the power generation markets and are now focusing our efforts and investments on the HVAC and detection and measurement markets. Historically, Transformer Solutions’ operations have had a significant impact on our consolidated financial results, with revenues totaling approximately 25% of our total consolidated revenues. As we no longer have a consequential presence in the power generation markets, and given Transformer Solutions' significance to our historical consolidated financial results, we have concluded that the sale of Transformer Solutions represents a strategic shift. Accordingly, we have classified the business as a discontinued operation in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. See Note 3 for additional details.

Change in Segment Reporting Structure

As noted above, Transformer Solutions is now being reported as a discontinued operation within the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. In addition, the remaining operations of our former Engineered Solutions reportable segment, with annual income representing less than 5% of the total annual income of our reportable segments, are being reported within our HVAC reportable segment, as these operations are now being managed, and evaluated by our Chief Operating Decision Maker, as part of our HVAC cooling business.

Wind-Down of the SPX Heat Transfer Business

As a continuation of our strategic shift away from power-generation markets, during the fourth quarter of 2020, we completed the wind-down of the SPX Heat Transfer business (“Heat Transfer”), which included providing all products and services on the business’s remaining contracts with customers. As a result, we are reporting Heat Transfer as a discontinued operation in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. See Note 3 for additional details.

Acquisition of ULC

On September 2, 2020, we completed the acquisition of ULC Robotics (“ULC”), a leading developer of robotic systems, machine learning applications, and inspection technology for the energy, utility, and industrial markets, for cash proceeds of $89.2, net of cash acquired of $4.0. Under the terms of the purchase and sales agreement, the seller was eligible for additional cash consideration of up to $45.0, with payments scheduled to be made upon successful achievement of certain operational and financial performance milestones. At the time of the acquisition, we recorded a liability of $24.3, which

7

represented the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration. During the third quarter of 2021, we concluded that the operational and financial milestones noted above would not be achieved. As a result, we reversed the liability of $24.3 during the quarter, with the offset recorded to “Other operating (income) expense” (See Note 9 for further discussion of this matter). The post-acquisition operating results of ULC are reflected within our Detection and Measurement reportable segment.

Acquisition of Sensors & Software

On November 11, 2020, we completed the acquisition of Sensors & Software Inc. (“Sensors & Software”), a leading manufacturer and distributor of ground penetrating radar products used for locating underground utilities, detecting unexploded ordinances, and geotechnical and geological investigations, for cash proceeds of $15.5, net of cash acquired of $0.3. Under the terms of the purchase and sales agreement, the seller is eligible for additional cash consideration of up to $3.9, with payment scheduled to be made upon successful achievement of a financial performance milestone during the twelve months following the date of acquisition. The estimated fair value of such contingent consideration is $0.7, which is reflected as a liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The post-acquisition operating results of Sensors & Software are reflected within our Detection and Measurement reportable segment.

Acquisition of Sealite

On April 19, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Sealite Pty Ltd and affiliated entities, including Sealite USA, LLC (doing business as Avlite Systems) and Star2M Pty Ltd (collectively, “Sealite”). Sealite is a leader in the design and manufacture of marine and aviation Aids to Navigation products. We purchased Sealite for cash proceeds of $80.3, net of cash acquired of $2.3. The post-acquisition operating results of Sealite are reflected within our Detection and Measurement Reportable segment.

Acquisition of ECS

On August 2, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Enterprise Control Systems Ltd (“ECS”), a leader in the design and manufacture of highly-engineered tactical datalinks and radio frequency (“RF”) countermeasures, including counter-drone and counter-IED RF jammers. We purchased ECS for cash proceeds of $39.4, net of cash acquired of $5.1. Under the terms of the purchase and sales agreement, the seller is eligible for additional cash consideration of up to $16.8, with payment to be made in 2022 upon successful achievement of certain financial performance milestones. The estimated fair value of such contingent consideration is $8.2, which is reflected as a liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 2, 2021. The post-acquisition operating results of ECS are reflected within our Detection and Measurement reportable segment.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Sensors & Software, Sealite and ECS transactions have been recorded at estimates of fair value as determined by management, based on information available and assumptions as to future operations and are subject to change, primarily for the final assessment and valuation of certain income tax amounts.

Other

Preparing financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The unaudited information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year results.

We establish actual interim closing dates using a fiscal calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on the Saturday closest to the end of the first calendar quarter, with the second and third quarters being 91 days in length. Our fourth quarter ends on December 31. The interim closing dates for the first, second and third quarters of 2021 are April 3, July 3 and October 2, compared to the respective March 28, June 27 and September 26, 2020 dates. We had five more days in the first quarter of 2021 and will have six fewer days in the fourth quarter of 2021 than in the respective 2020 periods. It is not practicable to estimate the impact of the five additional days on our consolidated operating results for the nine months ended October 2, 2021, when compared to the consolidated operating results for the 2020 respective period.

(2)    NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The following is a summary of new accounting pronouncements that apply or may apply to our business.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 changes how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income, based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The requirements of ASU 2016-13 are to be applied on a modified retrospective basis, which entails

8

recognizing the initial effect of adoption in retained earnings. We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, which resulted in an increase of our retained deficit of $0.5.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740). This ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by, among other things, eliminating certain existing exceptions related to the general approach in ASC 740 relating to franchise taxes, reducing complexity in the interim-period accounting for year-to-date loss limitations and changes in tax laws, and clarifying the accounting for the step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The transition requirements are primarily prospective and the effective date is for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2021, with no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) is scheduled to be discontinued on June 30, 2023, with some tenors ceasing on December 31, 2021. In an effort to address the various challenges created by such discontinuance, the FASB issued two amendments to existing guidance, ASU No. 2020-04 and No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform. The amended guidance is designed to provide relief from the accounting analysis and impacts that may otherwise be required for modifications to agreements (e.g., loans, debt securities, derivatives, etc.) necessitated by the reference rate reform. It also provides optional expedients to enable companies to continue to apply hedge accounting to certain hedging relationships impacted by the reference rate reform. Application of the guidance in the amendments is optional, is only available in certain situations, and is only available for companies to apply until December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impacts of reference rate reform and the new guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

(3)    ACQUISITIONS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

As indicated in Note 1, on September 2, 2020, November 11, 2020, April 19, 2021 and August 2, 2021, we completed the acquisitions of ULC, Sensors & Software, Sealite and ECS, respectively. The pro forma effects of these acquisitions, to the applicable periods, are not material to the accompanying condensed consolidated results of operations.

Sale of Transformer Solutions Business

As discussed in Note 1, on October 1, 2021, we completed the sale of Transformer Solutions for net cash proceeds of $620.6. In connection with the sale, we recorded a gain of $357.7 to “Gain (loss) on disposition of discontinued operations, net of tax” within our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021.

The final sales price for Transformer Solutions is subject to adjustment based on cash, debt and working capital existing at the closing date, as well as for specified transaction expenses and other specified items, and is subject to agreement with the Purchaser, with final agreement of these items yet to occur. Accordingly, it is possible that the sales price and resulting gain for this divestiture may be materially adjusted in subsequent periods.

Contract Balances

Our customers are invoiced for products and services at the time of delivery or based on contractual milestones, resulting in outstanding receivables with payment terms from these customers (“Contract Accounts Receivable”). In some cases, the timing of revenue recognition, particularly for revenue recognized over time, differs from when such amounts are invoiced to customers, resulting in a contract asset (revenue recognition precedes the invoicing of the related revenue amount) or a contract liability (payment from the customer precedes recognition of the related revenue amount). Contract assets and liabilities are generally classified as current. On a contract-by-contract basis, the contract assets and contract liabilities are reported net within our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our contract balances consisted of the following as of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Contract Balances	October 2, 2021		December 31, 2020		Change
Contract Accounts Receivable(1)	$	202.8	$	210.6	$	(7.8)
Contract Assets	23.7		32.5		(8.8)
Contract Liabilities - current	(50.7)		(46.3)		(4.4)
Contract Liabilities - non-current(2)	(5.9)		(3.4)		(2.5)
Net contract balance	$	169.9	$	193.4	$	(23.5)

___________________________

(1) Included in “Accounts receivable, net” within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

(2) Included in “Other long-term liabilities” within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The $23.5 decrease in our net contract balance from December 31, 2020 to October 2, 2021 was due primarily to cash payments received from customers during the period, partially offset by revenue recognized during the period.

During the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, we recognized revenues of $8.6 and $31.8, respectively, related to our contract liabilities at December 31, 2020.

Performance Obligations

As of October 2, 2021, the aggregate amount allocated to remaining performance obligations was $102.5. We expect to recognize revenue on approximately 63% and 86% of remaining performance obligations over the next 12 and 24 months, respectively, with the remaining recognized thereafter.

(5)    LEASES

There have been no material changes to our operating and finance leases during the nine months ended October 2, 2021.

(6)    INFORMATION ON REPORTABLE SEGMENTS AND “OTHER” OPERATING SEGMENT

We are a global supplier of highly specialized, engineered solutions with operations in over 15 countries and sales in over 100 countries around the world.

Our DBT Technologies (PTY) LTD (“DBT”) operating segment is reported within an “Other” category outside of our reportable segments. We have aggregated our other operating segments into the following two reportable segments: HVAC and Detection and Measurement. The factors considered in determining our aggregated segments are the economic similarity of the businesses, the nature of products sold or services provided, production processes, types of customers, distribution methods, and regulatory environment. In determining our reportable segments, we apply the threshold criteria of the Segment Reporting Topic of the Codification. Operating income or loss for each of our operating segments is determined before considering impairment and special charges, long-term incentive compensation, certain other operating income/expense, and other indirect corporate expenses. This is consistent with the way our Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates the results of each segment.

HVAC Reportable Segment

Our HVAC reportable segment engineers, designs, manufactures, installs and services package and process cooling equipment products for the HVAC industrial and power generation markets, as well as boilers and comfort heating and ventilation products for the residential and commercial markets. The primary distribution channels for the segment’s products are direct to customers, independent manufacturing representatives, third-party distributors, and retailers. The segment serves a customer base in North America, Europe, and Asia.

___________________________

(1)Reflects (i) goodwill acquired with the Sealite and ECS acquisitions of $38.5 and $20.6, respectively, (ii) an increase in ULC's goodwill during 2021 of $3.1 resulting from revisions to the valuation of certain assets and liabilities and income tax accounts, and (iii) an increase in Sensors & Software's goodwill of $2.0 resulting from revisions to the valuation of certain assets and liabilities and income tax accounts. As indicated in Note 1, the acquired assets, including goodwill, and liabilities assumed in the Sealite, ECS and Sensors & Software acquisitions have been recorded at estimates of fair value and are subject to change upon completion of acquisition accounting.

(2)As indicated in Note 1, we concluded during the third quarter of 2021 that the operating and financial milestones related to the ULC contingent consideration would not be achieved, resulting in the reversal of the related liability of $24.3, with the offset to “Other operating (income) expense.” We also concluded that the lack of achievement of these milestones, along with lower than anticipated future cash flows, are indicators of potential impairment related to ULC’s indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. As such, we tested ULC’s indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill for impairment during the quarter. Based on such testing, we determined that the carrying value of ULC’s net assets exceeded the implied fair value of the business. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge to “Other operating (income) expense” of $24.3 during the quarter, with $23.3 related to goodwill and the remainder to trademarks.

Other Intangibles, Net

Identifiable intangible assets at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020 comprised the following:

	October 2, 2021						December 31, 2020
	Gross Carrying Value		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Value		Gross Carrying Value		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Value
Intangible assets with determinable lives (1):

Total	$	392.6	$	(55.4)	$	337.2	$	345.0	$	(40.0)	$	305.0

___________________________

(1)The identifiable intangible assets associated with the Sealite and ECS acquisitions consist of customer backlog of $1.9 and $0.8, respectively, customer relationships of $12.1 and $12.6, respectively, technology of $6.6 and $5.8, respectively, and definite-lived trademarks of $0.0 and $1.2, respectively.

(2)Changes during the nine months ended October 2, 2021 related primarily to the acquisition of Sealite trademarks of $11.6 and, as previously discussed, the impairment charge of $1.0 related to ULC's trademarks.

In connection with the acquisitions of Sealite and ECS, which have definite-lived intangible assets as noted above, we increased our estimated annual amortization expense related to intangible assets to approximately $21.0 for the full year 2021, and $19.0 for 2022 and each of the four years thereafter.

At October 2, 2021, the net carrying value of intangible assets with determinable lives consisted of $22.4 in the HVAC reportable segment and $141.6 in the Detection and Measurement reportable segment. At October 2, 2021, trademarks with indefinite lives consisted of $105.5 in the HVAC reportable segment and $67.7 in the Detection and Measurement reportable segment.

We perform our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter in conjunction with our annual financial planning process, with such testing based primarily on events and circumstances existing as of the end of the third quarter. In addition, we test goodwill for impairment on a more frequent basis if there are indications of potential impairment. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indication of impairment has occurred between annual testing dates. Such indication may include: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a significant adverse change in legal factors or the business climate; unanticipated competition; and a more likely than not expectation of selling or disposing all, or a portion, of a reporting unit.

Based on our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter of 2020, we concluded that the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units, exclusive of Cues, Inc. (“Cues”), Patterson-Kelley, LLC (“Patterson-Kelley”) and ULC, exceeded the carrying value of their respective net assets by over 75%. The estimated fair values of Cues and Patterson-Kelley exceeded the carrying value of their respective net assets by approximately 12% and 3%, while ULC's fair value approximates the carrying value of its net assets. The total goodwill for Cues, Patterson-Kelley and ULC was $47.9, $14.2 and $17.1, respectively, as of October 2, 2021. A change in assumptions used in valuing Cues, Patterson-Kelley, or ULC (e.g., projected revenues and profit growth rates, discount rates, industry price multiples, etc.) could result in these reporting units estimated fair value being less than the respective carrying value of their net assets. If any of these reporting units is unable to achieve its current financial forecast, we may be required to record an impairment charge in a future period related to its goodwill.

We perform our annual trademarks impairment testing during the fourth quarter, or on a more frequent basis, if there are indications of potential impairment. The fair values of our trademarks are determined by applying estimated royalty rates to projected revenues, with the resulting cash flows discounted at a rate of return that reflects current market conditions (fair value based on unobservable inputs - Level 3, as defined in Note 17). The primary basis for these projected revenues is the annual operating plan for each of the related businesses, which is prepared in the fourth quarter of each year.

___________________________

(1)While not due for repayment until December 2024 under the terms of our senior credit agreement, we classify within current liabilities the portion of the outstanding balance that we believe will be repaid over the next year, with such amount based on an estimate of cash that is expected to be generated over such period.

(2)The term loan is repayable in quarterly installments beginning in the first quarter of 2021, with the quarterly installments equal to 0.625% of the initial term loan balance of $250.0 during 2021, 1.25% in each of the four quarters of 2022 and 2023, and 1.25% during the first three quarters of 2024. The remaining balance is payable in full on December 17, 2024. Balances are net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.1 and $1.4 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

(3)Under this arrangement, we can borrow, on a continuous basis, up to $50.0, as available. Borrowings under this arrangement are collateralized by eligible trade receivables of certain of our businesses.

(4)Primarily includes balances under a purchase card program of $2.3 and $1.7 and finance lease obligations of $1.1 and $2.6 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The purchase card program allows for payment beyond the normal payment terms for goods and services acquired under the program. As this arrangement extends the payment of these purchases beyond their normal payment terms through third-party lending institutions, we have classified these amounts as short-term debt. 

(5)“Other” primarily includes debt assumed, foreign currency translation on any debt instruments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and the impact of amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the term loan.

Senior Credit Facilities

A detailed description of our senior credit facilities is included in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

On May 24, 2021 we elected to reduce our participating foreign credit instrument facility and bilateral foreign credit instrument facility, available for performance letters of credit and guarantees, by an aggregate amount of $20.0 and $25.0, respectively. The facility reduction resulted in a write-off of deferred finance costs of $0.2, recorded to “Interest expense” in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for nine months ended October 2, 2021.

At October 2, 2021, we had $437.8 of available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facilities, after giving effect to $12.2 reserved for domestic letters of credit. In addition, at October 2, 2021, we had $31.2 of available issuance capacity under our foreign credit instrument facilities after giving effect to $23.8 reserved for outstanding letters of credit.

The weighted-average interest rate of outstanding borrowings under our senior credit agreement was approximately 1.6% at October 2, 2021.

At October 2, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants of our senior credit agreement.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of October 2, 2021, in connection with the sale of Transformer Solutions and pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 8, 2021, surety bonds totaling approximately $27.4 remained in place at the time of sale. Transformer Solutions and the Purchaser provided us an indemnity in the event that any of the bonds are called. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser has 90 days to arrange for substitute surety bonds.

(13)    DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Interest Rate Swaps

We previously maintained interest rate swap agreements that matured in March 2021 and effectively converted borrowings under our senior credit facilities to a fixed rate of 2.535%, plus the applicable margin.

In February 2020, and as a result of a December 2019 amendment that extended the maturity date of our senior credit facilities to December 17, 2024, we entered into additional interest swap agreements (“Swaps”). The Swaps have a notional amount of $245.3, cover the period from March 2021 to November 2024, and effectively convert borrowings under our senior credit facilities to a fixed rate of 1.061%, plus the applicable margin.

We have designated and are accounting for our interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges. As of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the unrealized loss, net of tax, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) was $2.2 and $5.9, respectively. In addition, as of October 2, 2021, the fair value of our interest rate swap agreements totaled $2.9, with $2.4 recorded as a current liability and the remainder in long-term liabilities, and $7.8 at December 31, 2020 (with $1.4 recorded as a current liability and the remainder in long-term liabilities). Changes in fair value of our interest rate swap agreements are reclassified into earnings as a component of interest expense, when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings.

Currency Forward Contracts

We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency-denominated cash flows and to minimize the impact of changes as a result of currency fluctuations. Our principal currency exposures relate to the South African Rand, British Pound Sterling (“GBP”), and Euro.

From time to time, we enter into forward contracts to manage the exposure on contracts with forecasted transactions denominated in non-functional currencies and to manage the risk of transaction gains and losses associated with assets/liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of certain subsidiaries (“FX forward contracts”). None of our FX forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges.

We had FX forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $8.6 and $6.3 outstanding as of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, with all of the $8.6 scheduled to mature within one year.

Commodity Contracts

From time to time, we enter into commodity contracts to manage the exposure on forecasted purchases of commodity raw materials. The commodity contracts relate solely to Transformer Solutions. As discussed in Note 1, on October 1, 2021, we completed the sale of Transformer Solutions. Immediately prior to the sale, we extinguished the existing commodity contracts and reclassified from AOCI a net loss of $0.6 to “Gain (loss) on disposition of discontinued operations, net of tax” within our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021. At December 31, 2020, the outstanding notional amount of commodity contracts was 3.2 pounds of copper. Prior to extinguishment, we designated and accounted for these contracts as cash flow hedges and, to the extent the commodity contracts were effective in offsetting the variability of the forecasted purchases, the change in fair value was included in AOCI. We reclassified amounts associated with our commodity contracts out of AOCI when the forecasted transaction impacted earnings. As of December 31, 2020, the fair value of these contracts was a current asset of $2.4. Since these commodity contracts related to our Transformer Solutions business, the amount has been recorded within assets of discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The unrealized gain, net of taxes, recorded in AOCI was $1.5 as of December 31, 2020.

Income Per Share

The following table sets forth the number of weighted-average shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted income per share:

	Three months ended		Nine months ended
	October 2, 2021	September 26, 2020	October 2, 2021	September 26, 2020
Weighted-average number of common shares used in basic income per share	45.331	44.708	45.244	44.538
Dilutive securities — Employee stock options and restricted stock units	1.319	1.186	1.211	1.156
Weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive securities used in diluted income per share	46.650	45.894	46.455	45.694

The weighted-average number of restricted stock units and stock options excluded from the computation of diluted income per share because the assumed proceeds for these instruments exceed the average market value of the underlying common stock for the related period were 0.222 and 0.631, respectively, for the three months ended October 2, 2021, and 0.261 and 0.631, respectively, for the nine months ended October 2, 2021.

The weighted-average number of restricted stock units and stock options excluded from the computation of diluted income per share because the assumed proceeds for these instruments exceed the average market value of the underlying common stock for the related period were 0.352 and 0.858, respectively, for the three months ended September 26, 2020, and 0.346 and 0.817, respectively, for the nine months ended September 26, 2020.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

Long-term incentive compensation awards may be granted to certain eligible employees or non-employee directors. A detailed description of the awards granted prior to 2021 is included in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Awards granted on March 1, 2021 to executive officers and other members of senior management were comprised of performance stock units (“PSU’s”), stock options, and time-based restricted stock units (“RSU’s”), while other eligible employees were granted PSU’s and RSU’s. The PSU’s are eligible to vest at the end of a three-year performance period, with performance based on the total return of our stock over the three-year performance period against a peer group within the S&P 600 Capital Goods Index. Stock options and RSU’s vest ratably over the three-year period subsequent to the date of grant.

Effective May 11, 2021, we granted 0.017 RSU's to our non-employee directors, which vest in their entirety immediately prior to the annual meeting of stockholders in May 2022.

Compensation expense within income from continuing operations related to long-term incentive awards totaled $3.4 and $3.2 for the three months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020 and $9.5 and $9.6 for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively. The related tax benefit was $0.6 and $0.8 for the three months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020 and $1.6 and $2.4 for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively.

(15)    CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS

General

Numerous claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business have been asserted or are pending against us or certain of our subsidiaries (collectively, “claims”). These claims relate to litigation matters (e.g., class actions, derivative lawsuits and contracts, intellectual property and competitive claims), environmental matters, product liability matters (predominately associated with alleged exposure to asbestos-containing materials), and other risk management matters (e.g., general liability, automobile, and workers’ compensation claims). Additionally, we may become subject to other claims of which we are currently unaware, which may be significant, or the claims of which we are aware may result in our incurring significantly greater loss than we anticipate. While we (and our subsidiaries) maintain property, cargo, auto, product, general liability, environmental, and directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and have acquired rights under similar policies in connection with acquisitions that we believe cover a significant portion of these claims, this insurance may be insufficient or unavailable (e.g., in the case of insurer insolvency) to protect us against potential loss exposures. Also, while we believe we are entitled to indemnification from third parties for some of these claims, these rights may be insufficient or unavailable to protect us against potential loss exposures.

Our recorded liabilities related to these matters totaled $540.4 and $575.7 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Of these amounts, $469.5 and $499.8 are included in “Other long-term liabilities” within our condensed consolidated balance sheets at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, with the remainder included in “Accrued expenses.” The liabilities we record for these matters are based on a number of assumptions, including historical claims and payment experience. While we base our assumptions on facts currently known to us, they entail inherently subjective judgments and uncertainties. As a result, our current assumptions for estimating these liabilities may not prove accurate, and we may be required to adjust these liabilities in the future, which could result in charges to earnings. These variances relative to current expectations could have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

Our asbestos-related claims are typical in certain of the industries in which we operate or pertain to legacy businesses we no longer operate. It is not unusual in these cases for fifty or more corporate entities to be named as defendants. We vigorously defend these claims, many of which are dismissed without payment, and the significant majority of costs related to these claims have historically been paid pursuant to our insurance arrangements. Our recorded assets and liabilities related to asbestos-related claims were as follows at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

	October 2, 2021		December 31, 2020
Insurance recovery assets (1)	$	453.9	$	496.4
Liabilities for claims (2)	499.4		535.2

__________________________

(1)Of these amounts, $403.9 and $446.4 are included in “Other assets” at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, while the remainder is included in “Other current assets.”

(2)Of these amounts, $444.8 and $479.9 are included in “Other long-term liabilities” at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, while the remainder is included in “Accrued expenses.”

The liabilities we record for asbestos-related claims are based on a number of assumptions. In estimating our liabilities for asbestos-related claims, we consider, among other things, the following:

• The number of pending claims by disease type and jurisdiction.

• Historical information by disease type and jurisdiction with regard to:

◦ Average number of claims settled with payment (versus dismissed without payment); and

◦ Average claim settlement amounts.

• The period over which we can reasonably project asbestos-related claims (currently projecting through 2057).

24

The following table presents information regarding activity for the asbestos-related claims for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020:

	Nine months ended	Nine months ended
	October 2, 2021	September 26, 2020
Pending claims, beginning of period	9,782	11,079
Claims filed	2,044	1,730
Claims resolved	(1,797)	(2,651)
Pending claims, end of period	10,029	10,158

The assets we record for asbestos-related claims represent amounts that we believe we are or will be entitled to recover under agreements we have with insurance companies. The amount of these assets are based on a number of assumptions, including the continued solvency of the insurers and our legal interpretation of our rights for recovery under the agreements we have with the insurers. Our current assumptions for estimating these assets may not prove accurate, and we may be required to adjust these assets in the future. These variances relative to current expectations could have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

During the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, our (receipts) payments for asbestos-related claims, net of respective insurance recoveries of $39.8 and $23.3, were $(2.2) and $15.8, respectively. The nine months ended October 2, 2021 includes insurance proceeds of $15.0, associated with the settlement of an asbestos insurance coverage matter. A significant increase in claims, costs and/or issues with existing insurance coverage (e.g., dispute with or insolvency of insurer(s)) could have a material adverse impact on our share of future payments related to these matters, and, as a result, have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

During the nine months ended October 2, 2021, we recorded a charge of $2.7 related to revisions of recorded assets for asbestos-related claims. There were no other changes in estimates associated with our assets and liabilities related to our asbestos product liability matters during the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021 and three and nine months ended September 26, 2020.

Large Power Projects in South Africa

Overview - Since 2008, DBT has been executing contracts on two large power projects in South Africa (Kusile and Medupi). Over such time, the business environment surrounding these projects has been difficult, as DBT, along with many other contractors on the projects, have experienced delays, cost over-runs, and various other challenges associated with a complex set of contractual relationships among the end customer, prime contractors, various subcontractors (including DBT and its subcontractors), and various suppliers. DBT has substantially completed its scope of work, with its remaining responsibilities related largely to resolution of various claims, primarily between itself and one of its prime contractors, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Power—ZAF, or “MHI.”

The challenges related to the projects have resulted in (i) significant adjustments to our revenue and cost estimates for the projects, (ii) DBT’s submission of numerous change orders to the prime contractors, (iii) various claims and disputes between DBT and other parties involved with the projects (e.g., prime contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, etc.), and (iv) the possibility that DBT may become subject to additional claims, which could be significant. It is possible that some outstanding claims may not be resolved until after the prime contractors complete their scopes of work. Our future financial position, operating results, and cash flows could be materially impacted by the resolution of current and any future claims.

Claims by DBT - DBT has asserted claims against MHI of approximately South African Rand 1,100.0 (or $72.5). As DBT prepares these claims for dispute resolution processes, the amounts, along with the characterization, of the claims could change. Of these claims, South African Rand 566.5 (or $37.4), which is inclusive of the amounts awarded in the adjudications referred to below, are currently proceeding through contractual dispute resolution processes and DBT is likely to initiate additional dispute resolution processes. DBT is also pursuing several claims to force MHI to abide by its contractual obligations and provide DBT with certain benefits that MHI may have received from its customer on the projects. In addition to existing asserted claims, DBT believes it has additional claims and rights to recovery based on its performance under the contracts with, and actions taken by, MHI. DBT is continuing to evaluate the claims and the amounts owed to it under the contracts based on MHI's failure to comply with its contractual obligations. The amounts DBT may recover for current and potential future claims against MHI are not currently known given (i) the extent of current and potential future claims by MHI against DBT (see below for further discussion) and (ii) the unpredictable nature of any dispute resolution processes that may occur in connection with these current and potential future claims. No revenue has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to current or potential future claims against MHI.

25

On July 23, 2020, a dispute adjudication panel issued a ruling in favor of DBT on certain matters related to the Kusile and Medupi projects. The panel (i) ruled that DBT had achieved takeover on 9 of the units; (ii) ordered MHI to return $2.3 of bonds (which have been subsequently returned by MHI); (iii) ruled that DBT is entitled to the return of an additional $4.5 of bonds upon the completion of certain administrative milestones; (iv) ordered MHI to pay South African Rand 18.4 (or $1.1 at the time of the ruling) in incentive payments for work performed by DBT (which MHI has subsequently paid); and (v) ruled that MHI waived its rights to assert delay damages against DBT on one of the units of the Kusile project. The ruling is subject to MHI’s rights to seek further arbitration in the matter, as provided in the contracts. As such, the incentive payments noted above have not been recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On February 22, 2021, a dispute adjudication panel issued a ruling in favor of DBT related to costs incurred in connection with delays on two units of the Kusile project. In connection with the ruling, MHI paid DBT South African Rand 126.6 (or $8.6 at the time of payment). This ruling is subject to MHI’s rights to seek further arbitration in the matter and, thus, the amount awarded has not been reflected in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended October 2, 2021. On July 5, 2021, DBT received notice from MHI of its intent to seek final and binding arbitration in this matter.

On April 28, 2021, a dispute adjudication panel issued a ruling in favor of DBT related to costs incurred in connection with delays on two units of the Medupi project. In connection with the ruling, MHI paid DBT South African Rand 82.0 (or $6.0 at the time of payment). This ruling is subject to MHI’s rights to seek further arbitration in the matter and, thus, the amount awarded has not been reflected in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended October 2, 2021.

Claims by MHI - On February 26, 2019, DBT received notification of an interim claim consisting of both direct and consequential damages from MHI alleging, among other things, that DBT (i) provided defective product and (ii) failed to meet certain project milestones. In September 2020, MHI made a demand on certain bonds issued in its favor by DBT, based solely on these alleged defects, but without further substantiation or other justification (see further discussion below). On December 30, 2020, MHI notified DBT of its intent to take these claims to binding arbitration. On June 4, 2021, in connection with the arbitration, DBT received a revised version of the claim. Similar to the interim claim, we believe the vast majority of the damages summarized in the revised claim are unsubstantiated and, thus, any loss for the majority of these claims is considered remote. For the remainder of the claims in both the interim notification and the revised version, which largely appear to be direct in nature (approximately South African Rand 950.0 or $62.6), DBT has numerous defenses and, thus, we do not believe that DBT has a probable loss associated with these claims. As such, no loss has been recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to these claims. DBT intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims. Although it is reasonably possible that some loss may be incurred in connection with these claims, we currently are unable to estimate the potential loss or range of potential loss associated with these claims due to the (i) lack of support provided by MHI for these claims; (ii) complexity of contractual relationships between the end customer, MHI, and DBT; (iii) legal interpretation of the contract provisions and application of South African law to the contracts; and (iv) unpredictable nature of any dispute resolution processes that may occur in connection with these claims.

In April and July 2019, DBT received notifications of intent to claim liquidated damages totaling South African Rand 407.2 (or $26.9) from MHI alleging that DBT failed to meet certain project milestones related to the construction of the filters for both the Kusile and Medupi projects. DBT has numerous defenses against these claims and, thus, we do not believe that DBT has a probable loss associated with these claims. As such, no loss has been recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to these claims. Although it is reasonably possible that some loss may be incurred in connection with these claims, we currently are unable to estimate the potential loss or range of potential loss.

MHI has made other claims against DBT totaling South African Rand 176.2 (or $11.6). DBT has numerous defenses against these claims and, thus, we do not believe that DBT has a probable loss associated with these claims. As such, no loss has been recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to these claims.

Bonds Issued in Favor of MHI - DBT is obligated with respect to bonds issued by banks in favor of MHI. In September of 2020, MHI made a demand, and received payment of South African Rand 239.6 (or $14.3 at the time of payment), on certain of these bonds. In May 2021, MHI made an additional demand, and received payment of South African Rand 178.7 (or $12.5 at the time of payment), on certain of the remaining bonds at such time. In both cases, we funded the payment as required under the terms of the bonds and our senior credit agreement. In its demands, MHI purported that DBT failed to carry out its obligations to rectify certain alleged product defects and that DBT failed to meet certain project milestones. DBT denies liability for such allegations and, thus, fully intends to seek, and believes it is legally entitled to, reimbursement of the South African Rand 418.3 (or $27.6) that has been paid. However, given the extent and complexities of the claims between DBT and MHI, reimbursement of the South African Rand 418.3 (or $27.6) is unlikely to occur over the next twelve months. As such, we have reflected the South African Rand 418.3 (or $27.6) as a non-current asset within our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 2, 2021.

26

The remaining bond of $1.9 issued to MHI as a performance guarantee could be exercised by MHI for an alleged breach of DBT's obligation. In the event that MHI were to receive payment on a portion, or all, of the remaining bond, we would be required to reimburse the issuing bank.

In addition to this bond, SPX Corporation has guaranteed DBT’s performance on these projects to the prime contractors, including MHI.

Claim against Surety - On February 5, 2021, DBT received payment of $6.7 on bonds issued in support of performance by one of DBT's sub-contractors. The sub-contractor maintains a right to seek recovery of such amount and, thus, the amount received by DBT has not been reflected in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended October 2, 2021.

Litigation Matters

We are subject to other legal matters that arise in the normal course of business. We believe these matters are either without merit or of a kind that should not have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows; however, we cannot assure you that these proceedings or claims will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental Matters

Our operations and properties are subject to federal, state, local and foreign regulatory requirements relating to environmental protection. It is our policy to comply fully with all applicable requirements. As part of our effort to comply, we have a comprehensive environmental compliance program that includes environmental audits conducted by internal and external independent professionals, as well as regular communications with our operating units regarding environmental compliance requirements and anticipated regulations. Based on current information, we believe that our operations are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations, and we are not aware of any violations that could have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our business, financial condition, and results of operations or cash flows. As of October 2, 2021, we had liabilities for site investigation and/or remediation at 25 sites (25 sites at December 31, 2020) that we own or control, or formerly owned and controlled. In addition, while we believe that we maintain adequate accruals to cover the costs of site investigation and/or remediation, we cannot provide assurance that new matters, developments, laws and regulations, or stricter interpretations of existing laws and regulations will not materially affect our business or operations in the future.

Our environmental accruals cover anticipated costs, including investigation, remediation, and maintenance of clean-up sites. Our estimates are based primarily on investigations and remediation plans established by independent consultants, regulatory agencies and potentially responsible third parties. Accordingly, our estimates may change based on future developments, including new or changes in existing environmental laws or policies, differences in costs required to complete anticipated actions from estimates provided, future findings of investigation or remediation actions, or alteration to the expected remediation plans. It is our policy to revise an estimate once the revision becomes probable and the amount of change can be reasonably estimated. We generally do not discount our environmental accruals and do not reduce them by anticipated insurance recoveries. We take into account third-party indemnification from financially viable parties in determining our accruals where there is no dispute regarding the right to indemnification.

In the case of contamination at offsite, third-party disposal sites, as of October 2, 2021, we have been notified that we are potentially responsible and have received other notices of potential liability pursuant to various environmental laws at 11 sites at which the liability has not been settled, of which 9 sites have been active in the past few years. These laws may impose liability on certain persons that are considered jointly and severally liable for the costs of investigation and remediation of hazardous substances present at these sites, regardless of fault or legality of the original disposal. These persons include the present or former owners or operators of the site and companies that generated, disposed of or arranged for the disposal of hazardous substances at the site. We are considered a “de minimis” potentially responsible party at most of the sites, and we estimate that our aggregate liability, if any, related to these sites is not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. We conduct extensive environmental due diligence with respect to potential acquisitions, including environmental site assessments and such further testing as we may deem warranted. If an environmental matter is identified, we estimate the cost and either establish a liability, purchase insurance or obtain an indemnity from a financially sound seller; however, in connection with our acquisitions or dispositions, we may assume or retain significant environmental liabilities, some of which we may be unaware. The potential costs related to these environmental matters and the possible impact on future operations are uncertain due in part to the complexity of government laws and regulations and their interpretations, the varying costs and effectiveness of various clean-up technologies, the uncertain level of insurance or other types of recovery, and the questionable level of our responsibility. We record a liability when it is both probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

27

In our opinion, after considering accruals established for such purposes, the cost of remedial actions for compliance with the present laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment are not expected to have a material impact, individually or in the aggregate, on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Self-insured Risk Management Matters

We are self-insured for certain of our workers’ compensation, automobile, product and general liability, disability and health costs, and we believe that we maintain adequate accruals to cover our retained liability. Our accruals for risk management matters are determined by us, are based on claims filed and estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported, and generally are not discounted. We consider a number of factors, including third-party actuarial valuations, when making these determinations. We maintain third-party stop-loss insurance policies to cover certain liability costs in excess of predetermined retained amounts. The insurance may be insufficient or unavailable (e.g., because of insurer insolvency) to protect us against loss exposure.

(16)    INCOME AND OTHER TAXES

Uncertain Tax Benefits

As of October 2, 2021, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $7.3 (net unrecognized tax benefits of $6.4). All of these net unrecognized tax benefits would impact our effective tax rate from continuing operations if recognized.

We classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of our income tax provision. As of October 2, 2021, gross accrued interest totaled $3.1 (net accrued interest of $2.5). As of October 2, 2021, we had no accrual for penalties included in our unrecognized tax benefits.

Based on the outcome of certain examinations or as a result of the expiration of statutes of limitations for certain jurisdictions, we believe that within the next 12 months it is reasonably possible that our previously unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by up to $5.0. The previously unrecognized tax benefits relate to a variety of tax matters including transfer pricing and various state matters.

Other Tax Matters

For the three months ended October 2, 2021, we recorded an income tax provision of $3.7 on $11.4 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 32.5%. This compares to an income tax provision for the three months ended September 26, 2020 of $3.1 on $18.7 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 16.6%. The most significant item impacting the income tax provision for the third quarter of 2021 was $0.7 of expense related to the revaluation of certain deferred tax liabilities due to an enacted tax rate increase. The most significant item impacting the income tax provision for the third quarter of 2020 was $1.2 of tax benefits related to our U.S. tax credits and incentives.

For the nine months ended October 2, 2021, we recorded an income tax provision of $9.8 on $51.2 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 19.1%. This compares to an income tax provision for the nine months ended September 26, 2020 of $8.4 on $48.7 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 17.2%. The most significant items impacting the income tax provision for the first nine months of 2021 were (i) a benefit of $2.2 related to the resolution of certain liabilities for uncertain tax positions and interest associated with various refund claims and (ii) $1.0 of excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation awards that vested and/or were exercised during the period, partially offset by (iii) $1.3 of expense related to the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities due to an enacted tax rate increase. The most significant items impacting the income tax provision for the first nine months of 2020 were (i) $1.5 of excess tax benefits resulting from stock-based compensation awards that vested and/or were exercised during the period, (ii) the $1.2 of tax benefits associated with U.S. tax credits and incentives noted above, and (iii) $0.5 of tax benefits associated with statute expirations in certain jurisdictions during the second quarter of 2020.

We perform reviews of our income tax positions on a continuous basis and accrue for potential uncertain positions when we determine that an uncertain position meets the criteria of the Income Taxes Topic of the Codification. Accruals for these uncertain tax positions are recorded in “Income taxes payable” and “Deferred and other income taxes” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the expectation as to the timing of when the matters will be resolved. As events change and resolutions occur, these accruals are adjusted, such as in the case of audit settlements with taxing authorities.

The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) concluded its audit of our 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 federal income tax returns. In connection with such, we recorded a tax benefit of $2.2 during the three months ended July 3, 2021 related to the resolution of certain liabilities for uncertain tax positions and interest associated with various refund claims.

28

State income tax returns generally are subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing the respective tax returns. The impact on such tax returns of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states. We have various state income tax returns in the process of examination. We believe any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.

We have various foreign income tax returns under examination. The most significant of these is in Germany for the 2010 through 2014 tax years. We believe that any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.

An unfavorable resolution of one or more of the above matters could have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows in the quarter and year in which an adjustment is recorded or the tax is due or paid. As audits and examinations are still in process, the timing of the ultimate resolution and any payments that may be required for the above matters cannot be determined at this time.

(17)    FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

•Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

•Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

There were no changes during the periods presented to the valuation techniques we use to measure asset and liability fair values on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. There were no transfers between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy for the periods presented.

29

Valuation Methodologies Used to Measure Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

Parent Guarantees and Bonds Associated with Balcke Dürr — In connection with the 2016 sale of Balcke Dürr, existing parent company guarantees and bank surety bonds, which totaled approximately Euro 79.0 and Euro 79.0, respectively, remained in place at the time of sale. These guarantees and bonds provided protections for Balcke Dürr customers in regard to advance payments, performance, and warranties on projects in existence at the time of sale. In addition, certain bonds related to lease obligations and foreign tax matters in existence at the time of sale. Balcke Dürr and the acquirer of Balcke Dürr provided us an indemnity in the event that any of the bonds were called or payments were made under the guarantees. Also, at the time of sale, Balcke Dürr provided cash collateral of Euro 4.0 and the parent company of the buyer provided a guarantee of Euro 5.0 as a security for the above indemnifications (Euro 0.0 and Euro 1.0, respectively, at October 2, 2021). In connection with the sale, we recorded a liability for the estimated fair value of the guarantees and bonds and an asset for the estimated fair value of the cash collateral and indemnities provided. Since the sale of Balcke Dürr, the guarantees have expired and bonds have been periodically returned. As of October 2, 2021, all remaining bonds have been returned. Summarized below are changes in the liability and asset during the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020.

	Nine months ended
	October 2, 2021				September 26, 2020
	Guarantees and Bonds Liability (1)		Indemnification Assets (1)		Guarantees and Bonds Liability (1)		Indemnification Assets (1)
Balance at beginning of year	$	1.8	$	—	$	2.0	$	0.3
Reduction/Amortization for the period (2)	(1.7)		—		(0.3)		(0.2)
Impact of changes in foreign currency rates	(0.1)		—		0.1		—
Balance at end of period	$	—	$	—	$	1.8	$	0.1

___________________________

(1)In connection with the sale, we estimated the fair value of the existing parent company guarantees and bank and surety bonds considering the probability of default by Balcke Dürr and an estimate of the amount we would be obligated to pay in the event of a default. Additionally, we estimated the fair value of the cash collateral provided by Balcke Dürr and guarantee provided by mutares AG based on the terms and conditions and relative risk associated with each of these securities (unobservable inputs - Level 3).

(2)We reduced the liability generally at the earlier of the completion of the related underlying project milestones or the expiration of the guarantees or bonds. We amortized the asset based on the expiration terms of each of the securities. We recorded the reduction of the liability and the amortization of the asset to “Other income, net.”    

Contingent Consideration for Sensors & Software and ECS Acquisitions - In connection with the acquisitions of Sensors & Software and ECS, the respective sellers are eligible for additional cash consideration of up to $3.9 and $16.8, respectively, with payment of such contingent consideration dependent upon the achievement of certain milestones. The estimated fair value of such contingent consideration is $0.7 and $8.2, respectively, with such amounts reflected as liabilities within our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration for these acquisitions based on the probability of Sensors & Software and ECS achieving the applicable milestones.

Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets — Certain of our non-financial assets are subject to impairment analysis, including long-lived assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. We review the carrying amounts of such assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable or at least annually for indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. Any resulting asset impairment would require that the instrument be recorded at its fair value.

Valuation Methodologies Used to Measure Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Derivative Financial Instruments — Our financial derivative assets and liabilities include commodity contracts (until the sale of Transformer Solutions), interest rate swaps, and FX forward contracts, valued using valuation models based on observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and the credit risk of our counterparties, which comprise investment-grade financial institutions. Based on these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. We have not made any adjustments to the inputs obtained from the independent sources. Based on our continued ability to enter into forward contracts, we consider the markets for our fair value instruments active. We primarily use the income approach, which uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount.

As of October 2, 2021, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative liabilities due to our own credit risk, as the related instruments are collateralized under our senior credit facilities. Similarly, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative assets based on our evaluation of our counterparties’ credit risks.

Equity Security — We estimate the fair value of an equity security that we hold utilizing a practical expedient under existing guidance, with such estimated fair value based on our ownership percentage applied to the net asset value of the investee as presented in the investee’s most recent audited financial statements. During the three and nine months ended

30

October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, we recorded a gain of $1.6 and $9.0, respectively and $2.1 and $7.4, respectively, to “Other income, net” to reflect an increase in the estimated fair value of the equity security. As of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the equity security had an estimated fair value of $36.0 and $27.0, respectively.

Indebtedness and Other — The estimated fair value of our debt instruments as of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020 approximated the related carrying values due primarily to the variable market-based interest rates for such instruments. See Note 12 for further details.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (in millions)

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Some of the statements in this document and any documents incorporated by reference, including any statements as to operational and financial projections, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our businesses’ or our industries’ actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. Such statements may address our plans, our strategies, our prospects, changes and trends in our business and the markets in which we operate under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (“MD&A”) or in other sections of this document. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of those terms or other comparable terminology. Particular risks and uncertainties facing us include economic, business and other risks stemming from our internal operations, legal and regulatory risks, and uncertainties with respect to costs of raw materials, pricing pressures, pension funding requirements, integration of acquisitions, and changes in the economy, as well as the impacts of the coronavirus disease (the “COVID-19 pandemic”) and governmental responses to stem further outbreaks of the COVID-19 pandemic, which is further discussed below and in other sections of this document. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially because of market conditions in our industries or other factors, and forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual results. In addition, management’s estimates of future operating results are based on our current complement of businesses, which is subject to change as management selects strategic markets. 

All the forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, in any subsequent filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as in any documents incorporated by reference that describe risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements. We caution you that these risk factors may not be exhaustive. We operate in a continually changing business environment and frequently enter into new businesses and product lines. We cannot predict these new risk factors, and we cannot assess the impact, if any, of these new risk factors on our businesses or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not rely on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We disclaim any responsibility to update or publicly revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this document.

COVID-19 PANDEMIC, SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTIONS, AND OTHER ECONOMIC FACTORS

The COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations in the first half of 2020, with diminishing impacts during the second half of 2020 and during the first nine months of 2021. During the third quarter of 2021, certain of our businesses began to experience disruptions in the supply chain, which has negatively impacted their production of goods and, thus, resulted in lower absorption of manufacturing costs and delays in shipments to customers during the quarter. Our businesses are also experiencing increased costs for certain components, commodities, and services and, in some cases, labor shortages. We are taking actions to manage any additional costs and other potential impacts of these matters. We will continue to assess the actual and expected impacts and the need for further actions.

OTHER SIGNIFICANT MATTERS

•Acquisitions

◦ULC Robotics (“ULC”)

▪The seller was eligible for additional cash consideration of up to $45.0, upon achievement of certain operating and financial performance milestones.

▪Contingent Consideration

•During the third quarter of 2021, we concluded that the operating and financial milestones associated with the contingent consideration would not be achieved.

•As a result, we reversed the related liability of $24.3, with the offset to “Other operating (income) expense.”

32

•See Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details.

▪Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets and Goodwill

•We also concluded that the lack of achievement of the above milestones, along with lower than anticipated future cash flows, are indicators of potential impairment related to ULC’s indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill.

•As such, we tested ULC’s indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill for impairment during the quarter.

•Based on such testing, we determined that the carrying value of ULC’s net assets exceeded the implied fair value of the business.

•As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $24.3 to “Other operating (income) expense,” with $23.3 related to goodwill and the remainder to trademarks.

▪Under the terms of the bonds and our senior credit agreement, we were required to fund the above payment.

▪DBT denies liability for these claims and, thus, fully intends to seek, and believes it is legally entitled to, reimbursement of the South African Rand 178.7.

▪As such, the amount has been reflected as a non-current asset in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 2, 2021.

◦On June 4, 2021, DBT received a revised version of an interim claim from MHI that was provided on February 26, 2019. DBT has numerous defenses and, thus, does not believe it has a probable liability associated with these claimed damages.

•Cash Receipts in the Third Quarter of 2021

◦Received federal income tax refunds of $22.4.

◦Received insurance proceeds of $15.0 associated with the settlement of an asbestos insurance coverage matter.

OVERVIEW OF OPERATING RESULTS

Revenues for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021 totaled $285.8 and $870.4, respectively, compared to $268.3 and $783.1 during the respective periods in 2020. The increase in revenues during the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, compared to the respective prior-year periods, was due primarily to the impact of the ULC, Sensors & Software, Sealite and ECS acquisitions and an increase in organic revenue. The increase in organic revenue was due primarily to higher sales of heating and underground pipe and locator products, partially offset by lower sales of bus fare collection systems. During the first half of 2020, sales of heating and underground pipe and locator products were impacted negatively by the COVID-19 pandemic. The decline in sales of bus fare collection systems was due primarily to the timing of large projects, as the extent of such projects can fluctuate from period to period.

During the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, we generated operating income of $11.8 and $44.7, respectively, compared to $20.4 and $54.0 for the respective periods in 2020. The decrease in operating income during the three months ended October 2, 2021, compared to the respective prior-year period, was due primarily to additional amortization expense and one-time costs (e.g., charges for inventory adjusted to fair value at the acquisition date) associated with recent acquisitions and lower absorption of manufacturing costs at certain of our businesses due to disruptions in their supply chain. The decrease in operating income during the nine months ended October 2, 2021, compared to the respective prior-year period, was due primarily to higher corporate expense related to increased investments in continuous improvement and other strategic initiatives and an increase in incentive compensation expense.

Cash flows from operating activities associated with continuing operations totaled $94.0 for the nine months ended October 2, 2021, compared to cash flows from operating activities of $11.0 during the nine months ended September 26, 2020. The increase in cash flows from operating activities was due primarily to improved cash flows within our heating and underground pipe and locator businesses associated with improved profitability and decreases in working capital, as well as third quarter 2021 cash receipts related to federal tax refunds of $22.4 and insurance proceeds of $15.0 associated with the settlement of an asbestos insurance coverage matter.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

The unaudited information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. We establish actual interim closing dates using a fiscal calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on the Saturday closest to the end of the first calendar quarter, with the second and third quarters being 91 days in length. Our fourth quarter ends on December 31. The interim closing dates for the first, second and third quarters of 2021 are April 3, July 3 and October 2, compared to the respective March 28, June 27 and September 26, 2020 dates. We had five more days in the first quarter of 2021 and will have six fewer days in the fourth quarter of 2021 than in the respective 2020 periods. It is not practicable to estimate the impact of the five additional days on our consolidated operating results for the nine months ended October 2, 2021, when compared to the consolidated operating results for the 2020 respective period.

Cyclicality of End Markets, Seasonality and Competition — The financial results of our businesses closely follow changes in the industries in which they operate and end markets in which they serve. In addition, certain of our businesses have seasonal fluctuations. For example, our heating businesses tend to be stronger in the third and fourth quarters, as customer buying habits are driven largely by seasonal weather patterns. In aggregate, our businesses tend to be stronger in the second half of the year.

34

Although our businesses operate in highly competitive markets, our competitive position cannot be determined accurately in the aggregate or by segment since none of our competitors offer all the same product lines or serve all the same markets as we do. In addition, specific reliable comparative figures are not available for many of our competitors. In most product groups, competition comes from numerous concerns, both large and small. The principal methods of competition are service, product performance, technical innovation and price. These methods vary with the type of product sold. We believe we compete effectively on the basis of each of these factors.

Non-GAAP Measures — Organic revenue growth (decline) presented herein is defined as revenue growth (decline) excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions/divestitures, and the impact of a reduction in revenue during the second quarter of 2021 associated with the settlement of claims on a legacy dry cooling project. We believe this metric is a useful financial measure for investors in evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented as, when considered in conjunction with our revenues, it presents a useful tool to evaluate our ongoing operations and provides investors with a tool they can use to evaluate our management of assets held from period to period. In addition, organic revenue growth (decline) is one of the factors we use in internal evaluations of the overall performance of our business. This metric, however, is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), should not be considered a substitute for net revenue growth (decline) as determined in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The following table provides selected financial information for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively, including the reconciliation of organic revenue increase to the net revenue increase:

Revenues — For the three months ended October 2, 2021, the increase in revenues, compared to the respective period in 2020, was due primarily to the impact of the acquisitions of Sealite, ULC, Sensors and Software, and ECS and, to a lesser extent, an increase in organic revenue and the favorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates. The increase in organic revenue was due to higher sales of cooling products in the Americas region, as well as higher sales of underground pipe and locator, communication technologies, and obstruction lighting products. These increases in organic revenue were partially offset by lower sales of cooling products in the EMEA region and bus fare collection systems. For the nine months ended October 2, 2021, the increase in revenues, compared to the respective period in 2020, was primarily due to an increase in organic revenue and the impact of the acquisitions noted above. The increase in organic revenue was due primarily to higher sales of heating and underground pipe and locator products, partially offset by lower sales of bus fare collection systems. During the first half of

35

2020, sales of heating and underground pipe and locator products were impacted negatively by the COVID-19 pandemic. The decline in sales of bus fare collection systems was due primarily to the timing of large projects, as the extent of such projects can fluctuate from period-to-period.

See “Results of Reportable Segments and Other Operating Segment” for additional details.

Gross Profit — For the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, the increase in gross profit, compared to the respective periods in 2020, was due primarily to the increase in revenues noted above. The decrease in gross profit as a percentage of revenues during the three months ended October 2, 2021, compared to the respective period in 2020, was due primarily to lower absorption of manufacturing costs at the HVAC segment’s heating businesses associated with disruptions in the supply chain.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expense — For the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, the increase in SG&A expense, compared to the respective periods in 2020, was due primarily to the incremental SG&A resulting from the acquisitions noted above. In addition, SG&A expense during the nine months ended October 2, 2021 was impacted by an increase in corporate expense associated with additional investments in connection with continuous improvement and other strategic initiatives and an increase in incentive compensation.

Intangible Amortization — For the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, the increase in intangible amortization, compared to the respective periods in 2020, was due to the incremental amortization of $2.2 and $7.8, respectively, related to the acquisitions noted above.

Special Charges, net — Special charges, net, related primarily to restructuring initiatives to consolidate manufacturing, distribution, sales and administrative facilities, reduce workforce and rationalize certain product lines. See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the details of actions taken in the first nine months of 2021 and 2020.

Other Operating (Income) Expense — Other operating expense for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 related to revisions to recorded assets for asbestos-related claims. Other operating income for the nine months ended September 26, 2020 related to revisions to estimates of certain liabilities retained in connection with the 2016 sale of the dry cooling business.

Other Income, net — Other income, net, for the three months ended October 2, 2021 was composed primarily of a gain of $1.6 related to a change in the estimated fair value of an equity security that we hold, a gain of $0.4 related to the sale of a trading security, and pension and postretirement income of $1.6, partially offset by foreign currency transaction losses of $0.8.

Other income, net, for the three months ended September 26, 2020 was composed primarily of a gain of $2.1 related to a change in the estimated fair value of an equity security that we hold and pension and postretirement income of $0.9, partially offset by foreign currency transaction losses of $0.3.

Other income, net, for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 was composed primarily of a gain of $9.0 related to a change in the estimated fair value of an equity that security we hold, pension and postretirement income of $4.8, income derived from company-owned life insurance policies of $2.7, and income of $1.7 related to a reduction of the liability associated with the parent company guarantees and bank surety bonds that were outstanding in connection with the 2016 sale of Balcke Dürr, partially offset by foreign currency transaction losses of $1.1.

Other income, net, for the nine months ended September 26, 2020 was composed primarily of a gain of $7.4 related to a change in the estimated fair value of an equity security that we hold and pension and postretirement income of $2.9.

Interest Expense, net — Interest expense, net, includes both interest expense and interest income. The decrease in interest expense, net, during the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, compared to the respective periods in 2020, was the result of a lower average effective interest rate and lower average debt balances during 2021.    

Income Tax Provision — For the three months ended October 2, 2021, we recorded an income tax provision of $3.7 on $11.4 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 32.5%. This compares to an income tax provision for the three months ended September 26, 2020 of $3.1 on $18.7 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 16.6%. The most significant item impacting the income tax provision for the third quarter of 2021 was $0.7 of expense related to the revaluation of certain deferred tax liabilities due to an enacted tax rate increase. The most significant item impacting the income tax provision for the third quarter of 2020 was $1.2 of tax benefits related to our U.S. tax credits and incentives.

36

For the nine months ended October 2, 2021, we recorded an income tax provision of $9.8 on $51.2 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 19.1%. This compares to an income tax provision for the nine months ended September 26, 2020 of $8.4 on $48.7 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 17.2%. The most significant items impacting the income tax provision for the first nine months of 2021 were (i) a benefit of $2.2 related to the resolution of certain liabilities for uncertain tax positions and interest associated with various refund claims and (ii) $1.0 of excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation awards that vested and/or were exercised during the period, partially offset by (iii) $1.3 of expense related to the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities due to an enacted tax rate increase. The most significant items impacting the income tax provision for the first nine months of 2020 were (i) $1.5 of excess tax benefits resulting from stock-based compensation awards that vested and/or were exercised during the period, (ii) the $1.2 of tax benefits associated with U.S. tax credits and incentives noted above, and (iii) $0.5 of tax benefits associated with statute expirations in certain jurisdictions during the second quarter of 2020.

RESULTS OF REPORTABLE SEGMENTS AND OTHER OPERATING SEGMENT

The following information should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. These results exclude the operating results of discontinued operations for all periods presented. See Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a description of our reportable segments and other operating segment.

Non-GAAP Measures — Throughout the following discussion of segment results, we use “organic revenue” growth (decline) to facilitate explanation of the operating performance of our segments. Organic revenue growth (decline) is a non-GAAP financial measure and is not a substitute for revenue growth (decline). Refer to the explanation of this measure and purpose of use by management under “Results of Continuing Operations—Non-GAAP Measures.”

Revenues — For the three months ended October 2, 2021, the decrease in revenues, compared to the respective period in 2020, was due to a net decline in organic revenue related primarily to the segment’s cooling business in the EMEA region, as this business had some large projects that contributed significant revenue to the segment’s results in the third quarter of 2020. Despite a significant increase in orders during the third quarter of 2021, organic revenue for the segment’s heating businesses was relatively flat during the quarter as production and shipments for the businesses were negatively impacted by disruptions in the supply chain.

For the nine months ended October 2, 2021, the increase in revenues, compared to the respective period in 2020, was due primarily to an increase in organic revenue for the segment’s heating businesses. Sales of heating products during the first half of 2020 were impacted negatively by (i) a warmer than normal winter and (ii) the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, and as indicated above, sales for the segment’s heating businesses during the third quarter of 2021 were negatively impacted by disruptions in the supply chain.

Income — For the three months ended October 2, 2021, the decrease in income and margin, compared to the respective period in 2020, was due primarily to the revenue decline noted above and a decline in manufacturing cost absorption at the segment’s heating businesses associated with disruptions in the supply chain.

For the nine months ended October 2, 2021, the increase in income and margin, compared to the respective period in 2020, was due primarily to the increase in revenues noted above.

Backlog — The segment had backlog of $204.0 and $182.6 as of October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively.

Net revenue increase							24.9							22.3

Revenues — For the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, the increase in revenues, compared to the respective periods in 2020, was due primarily to the impact of the acquisitions of ECS, Sealite, ULC, and Sensors and Software and, to a lesser extent, organic revenue growth and the impact foreign currency exchange rates. The increase in organic revenue was primarily the result of higher sales of underground pipe and locator products and, to a lesser extent, higher sales of communication technologies and obstruction lighting products. These increases in organic revenue were offset partially by lower sales of bus fare collection systems. During the first half of 2020, sales of underground pipe and locator products were impacted negatively by the COVID-19 pandemic, while the decline in in sales of bus fare collection systems in the current-year period was due primarily to the timing of large projects, as extent of such projects can fluctuate from period to period.

Income — For the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, the decrease in income and margin, compared to the respective periods in 2020, was due primarily to increased amortization expense, as well as inventory step-up charges ($0.7 and $2.3 during the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021), associated with the acquisitions noted above, partially offset by the income associated with the increases in revenue noted above.

Backlog — The segment had backlog of $176.5 and $89.5 as of October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively. Aggregate backlog related to Sensors and Software, Sealite and ECS, businesses acquired after September 26, 2020, totaled $50.2 as of October 2, 2021.

Revenues — For the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, the decrease in revenues, compared to the respective periods in 2020, was due to lower sales related to the large power projects in South Africa, as these projects are in the latter stages of completion.

Loss — For the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, the loss decreased, compared to the respective periods in 2020, as a result of the wind-down activities noted above for the large power projects in South Africa. The losses for all periods presented relate primarily to legal costs associated with the claims matters for the large power projects in South Africa.

Backlog — The operating segment had a backlog of $2.9 and $3.9 as of October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively.

Corporate Expense — Corporate expense generally relates to the cost of our Charlotte, North Carolina corporate headquarters. The increase in corporate expense during the nine months ended October 2, 2021, compared to the respective periods in 2020, was due primarily to increased investments in continuous improvement and other strategic initiatives and an increase in incentive compensation expense.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation Expense — Long-term incentive compensation expense represents our consolidated expense, which we do not allocate for segment reporting purposes. For the three months ended October 2, 2021, the increase in long-term incentive compensation expense, compared to the respective period in 2020, was due to a higher amount award forfeitures during the 2020 period. The decrease in long-term incentive compensation during the nine months ended October 2, 2021, compared to the respective period in 2020, was due to revisions to/finalization of the liability associated with the 2018 long-term cash awards during the first quarter of 2021, partially offset by the impact of a lower amount of award forfeitures during 2021. See Note 14 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Listed below are the cash flows from (used in) operating, investing, and financing activities and discontinued operations, as well as the net change in cash and equivalents for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020.

	Nine months ended
	October 2, 2021		September 26, 2020
Continuing operations:
Cash flows from operating activities	$	94.0	$	11.0
Cash flows used in investing activities	(119.3)		(99.3)
Cash flows from (used in) financing activities	(166.8)		64.5

Change in cash and equivalents due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates	6.2		(3.1)
Net change in cash and equivalents	$	491.8	$	16.0

Operating Activities — The increase in cash flows from operating activities during the nine months ended October 2, 2021, compared to the respective period in 2020, was due primarily to improved cash flows within our underground pipe and locator and heating businesses associated with improved profitability and decreases in working capital, as well as third quarter 2021 cash receipts related to federal tax refunds of $22.4 and insurance proceeds of $15.0 associated with the settlement of an asbestos insurance coverage matter.

Investing Activities — Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 were comprised primarily of cash utilized in the acquisitions of Sealite and ECS of $80.3 and $39.4, respectively, and capital expenditures of $7.5, partially offset by proceeds from company-owned insurance policies of $8.2.

Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 26, 2020 were comprised of cash utilized for the acquisition of ULC of $87.9 and capital expenditures of $12.5, partially offset by proceeds from company-owned life insurance policies of $1.1.

Financing Activities — Cash flows used in financing activities for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 were comprised of net repayments under our various debt instruments of $162.8 and minimum withholdings paid on behalf of employees on long-term incentive awards, net of proceeds from options exercised, of $4.0.

Cash flows from financing activities for the nine months ended September 26, 2020 were comprised of net borrowings under our various debt instruments of $67.8, with such net borrowings resulting primarily from borrowings utilized to fund the ULC acquisition. The impact of these net borrowings was partially offset by (i) minimum withholdings paid on behalf of employees on long-term incentive awards, net of proceeds from options exercised, of $1.8 and (ii) $1.5 related to contingent consideration paid in connection with the SGS acquisition.

Discontinued Operations — Cash flows from discontinued operations for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 include proceeds received in connection with the sale of Transformers Solutions of $620.6. In addition, cash flows from discontinued operations for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020 include cash flows from operations generated by Transformers Solutions, partially offset by cash disbursements related to liabilities retained in connection with dispositions.

Change in Cash and Equivalents due to Changes in Foreign Currency Exchange Rates — Changes in foreign currency exchange rates did not have a significant impact on our cash and equivalents during the first nine months of 2021 and 2020.

___________________________

(1)While not due for repayment until December 2024 under the terms of our senior credit agreement, we classify within current liabilities the portion of the outstanding balance that we believe will be repaid over the next year, with such amount based on an estimate of cash that is expected to be generated over such period.

(2)The term loan is repayable in quarterly installments beginning in the first quarter of 2021, with the quarterly installments equal to 0.625% of the initial term loan balance of $250.0 during 2021, 1.25% in each of the four quarters of 2022 and 2023, and 1.25% during the first three quarters of 2024. The remaining balance is payable in full on December 17, 2024. Balances are net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.1 and $1.4 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

(3)Under this arrangement, we can borrow, on a continuous basis, up to $50.0, as available. Borrowings under this arrangement are collateralized by eligible trade receivables of certain of our businesses.

(4)Primarily includes balances under a purchase card program of $2.3 and $1.7 and finance lease obligations of $1.1 and $2.6 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The purchase card program allows for payment beyond the normal payment terms for goods and services acquired under the program. As this arrangement extends the payment of these purchases beyond their normal payment terms through third-party lending institutions, we have classified these amounts as short-term debt. 

(5)“Other” primarily includes debt assumed, foreign currency translation on any debt instruments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and the impact of amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the term loan.

At October 2, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants of our senior credit agreement.

Availability — At October 2, 2021, we had $437.8 of available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facilities, after giving effect to $12.2 reserved for domestic letters of credit. During the second quarter of 2021, we reduced the available issuance capacity under our foreign credit instrument facilities from $100.0 to $55.0. At October 2, 2021, we had $31.2 of available issuance capacity under our foreign credit instrument facilities after giving effect to $23.8 reserved for outstanding letters of credit.

Financing instruments may be used from time to time including, but not limited to, public and private debt and equity offerings, operating leases, finance leases and securitizations. We expect that we will continue to access these markets as appropriate to maintain liquidity and to provide sources of funds for general corporate purposes, acquisitions or to refinance existing debt.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and equivalents, trade accounts receivable, insurance recovery assets associated with asbestos product liability matters, and interest rate swap and foreign currency forwards contracts. These financial instruments, other than trade accounts receivable, are placed with high-quality financial institutions and insurance companies throughout the world. We periodically evaluate the credit standing of these financial institutions and insurance companies.

We maintain cash levels in bank accounts that, at times, may exceed federally-insured limits. We have not experienced, and believe we are not exposed to, significant risk of loss in these accounts.

We have credit loss exposure in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to the above financial instruments, but have no other off-balance-sheet credit risk of accounting loss. We anticipate, however, that counterparties will be able to fully

41

satisfy their obligations under the contracts. We do not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk.

Concentrations of credit risk arising from trade accounts receivable are due to selling to customers in a particular industry. Credit risks are mitigated by performing ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions and obtaining collateral, advance payments, or other security when appropriate. No one customer, or group of customers that to our knowledge are under common control, accounted for more than 10% of our revenues for any period presented.

Other Matters

Contractual Obligations — There have been no material changes in the amounts of our contractual obligations from those disclosed in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our total net liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits including interest were $8.9 as of October 2, 2021. Based on the outcome of certain examinations or as a result of the expiration of statutes of limitations for certain jurisdictions, we believe that within the next 12 months it is reasonably possible that our previously unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by up to $5.0.

Contingencies and Other Matters — Numerous claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business have been asserted or are pending against us or certain of our subsidiaries (collectively, “claims”). These claims relate to litigation matters (e.g., contracts, intellectual property, and competitive claims), environmental matters, product liability matters (predominately associated with alleged exposure to asbestos-containing materials), and other risk management matters (e.g., general liability, automobile, and workers’ compensation claims). Additionally, we may become subject to other claims of which we are currently unaware, which may be significant, or the claims of which we are aware may result in our incurring significantly greater loss than we anticipate. We accrue for these contingencies when we believe a liability is probable and can be reasonably estimated. As events change and resolutions occur, these accruals may be adjusted and could differ materially from amounts originally estimated. See Note 15 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a further discussion of contingencies and other matters.

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that we shall indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law for any personal liability in connection with their employment or service with us. While we maintain insurance for this type of liability, the liability could exceed the amount of the insurance coverage.

In addition, you should read “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Other Matters” and “Risk Factors” in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as similar sections in any future filings for an understanding of the risks, uncertainties, and trends facing our businesses.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

General — The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The accounting policies that we believe are most critical to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and that require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments in estimating the effect of inherent uncertainties are discussed in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have affected no material change in either our critical accounting policies or use of estimates since the filing of our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

42

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Management does not believe our exposure to market risk has significantly changed since December 31, 2020 and does not believe that such risks will result in significant adverse impacts to our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of October 2, 2021.

In connection with the evaluation by SPX management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of our internal control over financial reporting, pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), no changes during the quarter ended October 2, 2021 were identified that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Unless otherwise indicated, “we,” “us” and “our” mean SPX Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (“SPX”).

We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules and regulations, certain footnotes or other financial information normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) can be condensed or omitted. The financial statements represent our accounts after the elimination of intercompany transactions and, in our opinion, include the adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary for their fair presentation. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts provided in these Notes pertain to continuing operations only (see Note 3 for information on discontinued operations).

We account for investments in unconsolidated companies where we exercise significant influence but do not have control using the equity method. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), we perform a qualitative analysis that considers the design of the VIE, the nature of our involvement and the variable interests held by other parties to determine which party has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and which party has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. All of our VIEs are considered immaterial, individually and in aggregate, to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Sale of Transformers Solutions Business

On October 1, 2021, we completed the previously announced sale of SPX Transformer Solutions, Inc. (“Transformer Solutions”) pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 8, 2021 with GE-Prolec Transformers, Inc. (the “Purchaser”) and Prolec GE Internacional, S. de R.L. de C.V. We transferred all of the outstanding common stock of Transformer Solutions to the Purchaser for an aggregate cash purchase price of $645.0 (the “Transaction”). The purchase price is subject to potential adjustment based on Transformer Solutions’ cash, debt and working capital on the date the Transaction was consummated, as well as for specified transaction expenses and other specified items, with the net cash proceeds received totaling $620.6. After the sale of Transformer Solutions, we have only a limited presence in the power generation markets and are now focusing our efforts and investments on the HVAC and detection and measurement markets. Historically, Transformer Solutions’ operations have had a significant impact on our consolidated financial results, with revenues totaling approximately 25% of our total consolidated revenues. As we no longer have a consequential presence in the power generation markets, and given Transformer Solutions' significance to our historical consolidated financial results, we have concluded that the sale of Transformer Solutions represents a strategic shift. Accordingly, we have classified the business as a discontinued operation in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. See Note 3 for additional details.

Change in Segment Reporting Structure

As noted above, Transformer Solutions is now being reported as a discontinued operation within the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. In addition, the remaining operations of our former Engineered Solutions reportable segment, with annual income representing less than 5% of the total annual income of our reportable segments, are being reported within our HVAC reportable segment, as these operations are now being managed, and evaluated by our Chief Operating Decision Maker, as part of our HVAC cooling business.

Wind-Down of the SPX Heat Transfer Business

As a continuation of our strategic shift away from power-generation markets, during the fourth quarter of 2020, we completed the wind-down of the SPX Heat Transfer business (“Heat Transfer”), which included providing all products and services on the business’s remaining contracts with customers. As a result, we are reporting Heat Transfer as a discontinued operation in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. See Note 3 for additional details.

Acquisition of ULC

On September 2, 2020, we completed the acquisition of ULC Robotics (“ULC”), a leading developer of robotic systems, machine learning applications, and inspection technology for the energy, utility, and industrial markets, for cash proceeds of $89.2, net of cash acquired of $4.0. Under the terms of the purchase and sales agreement, the seller was eligible for additional cash consideration of up to $45.0, with payments scheduled to be made upon successful achievement of certain operational and financial performance milestones. At the time of the acquisition, we recorded a liability of $24.3, which

represented the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration. During the third quarter of 2021, we concluded that the operational and financial milestones noted above would not be achieved. As a result, we reversed the liability of $24.3 during the quarter, with the offset recorded to “Other operating (income) expense” (See Note 9 for further discussion of this matter). The post-acquisition operating results of ULC are reflected within our Detection and Measurement reportable segment.

Acquisition of Sensors & Software

On November 11, 2020, we completed the acquisition of Sensors & Software Inc. (“Sensors & Software”), a leading manufacturer and distributor of ground penetrating radar products used for locating underground utilities, detecting unexploded ordinances, and geotechnical and geological investigations, for cash proceeds of $15.5, net of cash acquired of $0.3. Under the terms of the purchase and sales agreement, the seller is eligible for additional cash consideration of up to $3.9, with payment scheduled to be made upon successful achievement of a financial performance milestone during the twelve months following the date of acquisition. The estimated fair value of such contingent consideration is $0.7, which is reflected as a liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The post-acquisition operating results of Sensors & Software are reflected within our Detection and Measurement reportable segment.

Acquisition of Sealite

On April 19, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Sealite Pty Ltd and affiliated entities, including Sealite USA, LLC (doing business as Avlite Systems) and Star2M Pty Ltd (collectively, “Sealite”). Sealite is a leader in the design and manufacture of marine and aviation Aids to Navigation products. We purchased Sealite for cash proceeds of $80.3, net of cash acquired of $2.3. The post-acquisition operating results of Sealite are reflected within our Detection and Measurement Reportable segment.

Acquisition of ECS

On August 2, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Enterprise Control Systems Ltd (“ECS”), a leader in the design and manufacture of highly-engineered tactical datalinks and radio frequency (“RF”) countermeasures, including counter-drone and counter-IED RF jammers. We purchased ECS for cash proceeds of $39.4, net of cash acquired of $5.1. Under the terms of the purchase and sales agreement, the seller is eligible for additional cash consideration of up to $16.8, with payment to be made in 2022 upon successful achievement of certain financial performance milestones. The estimated fair value of such contingent consideration is $8.2, which is reflected as a liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 2, 2021. The post-acquisition operating results of ECS are reflected within our Detection and Measurement reportable segment.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Sensors & Software, Sealite and ECS transactions have been recorded at estimates of fair value as determined by management, based on information available and assumptions as to future operations and are subject to change, primarily for the final assessment and valuation of certain income tax amounts.

Other

Preparing financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The unaudited information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year results.

We establish actual interim closing dates using a fiscal calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on the Saturday closest to the end of the first calendar quarter, with the second and third quarters being 91 days in length. Our fourth quarter ends on December 31. The interim closing dates for the first, second and third quarters of 2021 are April 3, July 3 and October 2, compared to the respective March 28, June 27 and September 26, 2020 dates. We had five more days in the first quarter of 2021 and will have six fewer days in the fourth quarter of 2021 than in the respective 2020 periods. It is not practicable to estimate the impact of the five additional days on our consolidated operating results for the nine months ended October 2, 2021, when compared to the consolidated operating results for the 2020 respective period.

Accounting Standards Update and Change in Accounting Principle [Abstract]

New Accounting Pronouncements

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The following is a summary of new accounting pronouncements that apply or may apply to our business.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 changes how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income, based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The requirements of ASU 2016-13 are to be applied on a modified retrospective basis, which entails

recognizing the initial effect of adoption in retained earnings. We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, which resulted in an increase of our retained deficit of $0.5.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740). This ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by, among other things, eliminating certain existing exceptions related to the general approach in ASC 740 relating to franchise taxes, reducing complexity in the interim-period accounting for year-to-date loss limitations and changes in tax laws, and clarifying the accounting for the step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The transition requirements are primarily prospective and the effective date is for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2021, with no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) is scheduled to be discontinued on June 30, 2023, with some tenors ceasing on December 31, 2021. In an effort to address the various challenges created by such discontinuance, the FASB issued two amendments to existing guidance, ASU No. 2020-04 and No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform. The amended guidance is designed to provide relief from the accounting analysis and impacts that may otherwise be required for modifications to agreements (e.g., loans, debt securities, derivatives, etc.) necessitated by the reference rate reform. It also provides optional expedients to enable companies to continue to apply hedge accounting to certain hedging relationships impacted by the reference rate reform. Application of the guidance in the amendments is optional, is only available in certain situations, and is only available for companies to apply until December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impacts of reference rate reform and the new guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

ACQUISITIONS AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

As indicated in Note 1, on September 2, 2020, November 11, 2020, April 19, 2021 and August 2, 2021, we completed the acquisitions of ULC, Sensors & Software, Sealite and ECS, respectively. The pro forma effects of these acquisitions, to the applicable periods, are not material to the accompanying condensed consolidated results of operations.

Sale of Transformer Solutions Business

As discussed in Note 1, on October 1, 2021, we completed the sale of Transformer Solutions for net cash proceeds of $620.6. In connection with the sale, we recorded a gain of $357.7 to “Gain (loss) on disposition of discontinued operations, net of tax” within our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021.

The final sales price for Transformer Solutions is subject to adjustment based on cash, debt and working capital existing at the closing date, as well as for specified transaction expenses and other specified items, and is subject to agreement with the Purchaser, with final agreement of these items yet to occur. Accordingly, it is possible that the sales price and resulting gain for this divestiture may be materially adjusted in subsequent periods.

Contract Balances

Our customers are invoiced for products and services at the time of delivery or based on contractual milestones, resulting in outstanding receivables with payment terms from these customers (“Contract Accounts Receivable”). In some cases, the timing of revenue recognition, particularly for revenue recognized over time, differs from when such amounts are invoiced to customers, resulting in a contract asset (revenue recognition precedes the invoicing of the related revenue amount) or a contract liability (payment from the customer precedes recognition of the related revenue amount). Contract assets and liabilities are generally classified as current. On a contract-by-contract basis, the contract assets and contract liabilities are reported net within our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Our contract balances consisted of the following as of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

Contract Balances	October 2, 2021		December 31, 2020		Change
Contract Accounts Receivable(1)	$	202.8	$	210.6	$	(7.8)
Contract Assets	23.7		32.5		(8.8)
Contract Liabilities - current	(50.7)		(46.3)		(4.4)
Contract Liabilities - non-current(2)	(5.9)		(3.4)		(2.5)
Net contract balance	$	169.9	$	193.4	$	(23.5)

(1) Included in “Accounts receivable, net” within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

(2) Included in “Other long-term liabilities” within the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The $23.5 decrease in our net contract balance from December 31, 2020 to October 2, 2021 was due primarily to cash payments received from customers during the period, partially offset by revenue recognized during the period.

During the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021, we recognized revenues of $8.6 and $31.8, respectively, related to our contract liabilities at December 31, 2020.

Performance Obligations

As of October 2, 2021, the aggregate amount allocated to remaining performance obligations was $102.5. We expect to recognize revenue on approximately 63% and 86% of remaining performance obligations over the next 12 and 24 months, respectively, with the remaining recognized thereafter.

INFORMATION ON REPORTABLE SEGMENTS AND OTHER OPERATING SEGMENT

INFORMATION ON REPORTABLE SEGMENTS AND “OTHER” OPERATING SEGMENT

We are a global supplier of highly specialized, engineered solutions with operations in over 15 countries and sales in over 100 countries around the world.

Our DBT Technologies (PTY) LTD (“DBT”) operating segment is reported within an “Other” category outside of our reportable segments. We have aggregated our other operating segments into the following two reportable segments: HVAC and Detection and Measurement. The factors considered in determining our aggregated segments are the economic similarity of the businesses, the nature of products sold or services provided, production processes, types of customers, distribution methods, and regulatory environment. In determining our reportable segments, we apply the threshold criteria of the Segment Reporting Topic of the Codification. Operating income or loss for each of our operating segments is determined before considering impairment and special charges, long-term incentive compensation, certain other operating income/expense, and other indirect corporate expenses. This is consistent with the way our Chief Operating Decision Maker evaluates the results of each segment.

HVAC Reportable Segment

Our HVAC reportable segment engineers, designs, manufactures, installs and services package and process cooling equipment products for the HVAC industrial and power generation markets, as well as boilers and comfort heating and ventilation products for the residential and commercial markets. The primary distribution channels for the segment’s products are direct to customers, independent manufacturing representatives, third-party distributors, and retailers. The segment serves a customer base in North America, Europe, and Asia.

Detection and Measurement Reportable Segment

Our Detection and Measurement reportable segment engineers, designs, manufactures, services, and installs underground pipe and cable locators, inspection and rehabilitation equipment, robotic systems, bus fare collection systems, communication technologies, and obstruction lighting. The primary distribution channels for the segment’s products are direct to customers and third-party distributors. The segment serves a global customer base, with a strong presence in North America, Europe, Africa and Asia.

Other

As noted above, “Other” consists of our South African operating segment, DBT. Our DBT operating segment engineers, designs, manufactures, installs, and services equipment for the industrial and power generation markets, with its efforts focused primarily on two large power projects in South Africa that are in the final stages of completion (see Note 15 for additional details).

As indicated in Note 1, the acquired assets, including goodwill, and liabilities assumed in the Sealite, ECS and Sensors & Software acquisitions have been recorded at estimates of fair value and are subject to change upon completion of acquisition accounting.

(2)As indicated in Note 1, we concluded during the third quarter of 2021 that the operating and financial milestones related to the ULC contingent consideration would not be achieved, resulting in the reversal of the related liability of $24.3, with the offset to “Other operating (income) expense.” We also concluded that the lack of achievement of these milestones, along with lower than anticipated future cash flows, are indicators of potential impairment related to ULC’s indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. As such, we tested ULC’s indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill for impairment during the quarter. Based on such testing, we determined that the carrying value of ULC’s net assets exceeded the implied fair value of the business. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge to “Other operating (income) expense” of $24.3 during the quarter, with $23.3 related to goodwill and the remainder to trademarks.

Other Intangibles, Net

Identifiable intangible assets at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020 comprised the following:

	October 2, 2021						December 31, 2020

Total	$	392.6	$	(55.4)	$	337.2	$	345.0	$	(40.0)	$	305.0

___________________________

(1)The identifiable intangible assets associated with the Sealite and ECS acquisitions consist of customer backlog of $1.9 and $0.8, respectively, customer relationships of $12.1 and $12.6, respectively, technology of $6.6 and $5.8, respectively, and definite-lived trademarks of $0.0 and $1.2, respectively.

(2)Changes during the nine months ended October 2, 2021 related primarily to the acquisition of Sealite trademarks of $11.6 and, as previously discussed, the impairment charge of $1.0 related to ULC's trademarks.

In connection with the acquisitions of Sealite and ECS, which have definite-lived intangible assets as noted above, we increased our estimated annual amortization expense related to intangible assets to approximately $21.0 for the full year 2021, and $19.0 for 2022 and each of the four years thereafter.

At October 2, 2021, the net carrying value of intangible assets with determinable lives consisted of $22.4 in the HVAC reportable segment and $141.6 in the Detection and Measurement reportable segment. At October 2, 2021, trademarks with indefinite lives consisted of $105.5 in the HVAC reportable segment and $67.7 in the Detection and Measurement reportable segment.

We perform our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter in conjunction with our annual financial planning process, with such testing based primarily on events and circumstances existing as of the end of the third quarter. In addition, we test goodwill for impairment on a more frequent basis if there are indications of potential impairment. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indication of impairment has occurred between annual testing dates. Such indication may include: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a significant adverse change in legal factors or the business climate; unanticipated competition; and a more likely than not expectation of selling or disposing all, or a portion, of a reporting unit.

Based on our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter of 2020, we concluded that the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units, exclusive of Cues, Inc. (“Cues”), Patterson-Kelley, LLC (“Patterson-Kelley”) and ULC, exceeded the carrying value of their respective net assets by over 75%. The estimated fair values of Cues and Patterson-Kelley exceeded the carrying value of their respective net assets by approximately 12% and 3%, while ULC's fair value approximates the carrying value of its net assets. The total goodwill for Cues, Patterson-Kelley and ULC was $47.9, $14.2 and $17.1, respectively, as of October 2, 2021. A change in assumptions used in valuing Cues, Patterson-Kelley, or ULC (e.g., projected revenues and profit growth rates, discount rates, industry price multiples, etc.) could result in these reporting units estimated fair value being less than the respective carrying value of their net assets. If any of these reporting units is unable to achieve its current financial forecast, we may be required to record an impairment charge in a future period related to its goodwill.

We perform our annual trademarks impairment testing during the fourth quarter, or on a more frequent basis, if there are indications of potential impairment. The fair values of our trademarks are determined by applying estimated royalty rates to projected revenues, with the resulting cash flows discounted at a rate of return that reflects current market conditions (fair value based on unobservable inputs - Level 3, as defined in Note 17). The primary basis for these projected revenues is the annual operating plan for each of the related businesses, which is prepared in the fourth quarter of each year.

___________________________

(1)While not due for repayment until December 2024 under the terms of our senior credit agreement, we classify within current liabilities the portion of the outstanding balance that we believe will be repaid over the next year, with such amount based on an estimate of cash that is expected to be generated over such period.

(2)The term loan is repayable in quarterly installments beginning in the first quarter of 2021, with the quarterly installments equal to 0.625% of the initial term loan balance of $250.0 during 2021, 1.25% in each of the four quarters of 2022 and 2023, and 1.25% during the first three quarters of 2024. The remaining balance is payable in full on December 17, 2024. Balances are net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.1 and $1.4 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

(3)Under this arrangement, we can borrow, on a continuous basis, up to $50.0, as available. Borrowings under this arrangement are collateralized by eligible trade receivables of certain of our businesses.

(4)Primarily includes balances under a purchase card program of $2.3 and $1.7 and finance lease obligations of $1.1 and $2.6 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The purchase card program allows for payment beyond the normal payment terms for goods and services acquired under the program. As this arrangement extends the payment of these purchases beyond their normal payment terms through third-party lending institutions, we have classified these amounts as short-term debt. 

(5)“Other” primarily includes debt assumed, foreign currency translation on any debt instruments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and the impact of amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the term loan.

Senior Credit Facilities

A detailed description of our senior credit facilities is included in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

On May 24, 2021 we elected to reduce our participating foreign credit instrument facility and bilateral foreign credit instrument facility, available for performance letters of credit and guarantees, by an aggregate amount of $20.0 and $25.0, respectively. The facility reduction resulted in a write-off of deferred finance costs of $0.2, recorded to “Interest expense” in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for nine months ended October 2, 2021.

At October 2, 2021, we had $437.8 of available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facilities, after giving effect to $12.2 reserved for domestic letters of credit. In addition, at October 2, 2021, we had $31.2 of available issuance capacity under our foreign credit instrument facilities after giving effect to $23.8 reserved for outstanding letters of credit.

The weighted-average interest rate of outstanding borrowings under our senior credit agreement was approximately 1.6% at October 2, 2021.

At October 2, 2021, we were in compliance with all covenants of our senior credit agreement.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of October 2, 2021, in connection with the sale of Transformer Solutions and pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 8, 2021, surety bonds totaling approximately $27.4 remained in place at the time of sale. Transformer Solutions and the Purchaser provided us an indemnity in the event that any of the bonds are called. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser has 90 days to arrange for substitute surety bonds.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Interest Rate Swaps

We previously maintained interest rate swap agreements that matured in March 2021 and effectively converted borrowings under our senior credit facilities to a fixed rate of 2.535%, plus the applicable margin.

In February 2020, and as a result of a December 2019 amendment that extended the maturity date of our senior credit facilities to December 17, 2024, we entered into additional interest swap agreements (“Swaps”). The Swaps have a notional amount of $245.3, cover the period from March 2021 to November 2024, and effectively convert borrowings under our senior credit facilities to a fixed rate of 1.061%, plus the applicable margin.

We have designated and are accounting for our interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges. As of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the unrealized loss, net of tax, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) was $2.2 and $5.9, respectively. In addition, as of October 2, 2021, the fair value of our interest rate swap agreements totaled $2.9, with $2.4 recorded as a current liability and the remainder in long-term liabilities, and $7.8 at December 31, 2020 (with $1.4 recorded as a current liability and the remainder in long-term liabilities). Changes in fair value of our interest rate swap agreements are reclassified into earnings as a component of interest expense, when the forecasted transaction impacts earnings.

Currency Forward Contracts

We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency-denominated cash flows and to minimize the impact of changes as a result of currency fluctuations. Our principal currency exposures relate to the South African Rand, British Pound Sterling (“GBP”), and Euro.

From time to time, we enter into forward contracts to manage the exposure on contracts with forecasted transactions denominated in non-functional currencies and to manage the risk of transaction gains and losses associated with assets/liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of certain subsidiaries (“FX forward contracts”). None of our FX forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges.

We had FX forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $8.6 and $6.3 outstanding as of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, with all of the $8.6 scheduled to mature within one year.

Commodity Contracts

From time to time, we enter into commodity contracts to manage the exposure on forecasted purchases of commodity raw materials. The commodity contracts relate solely to Transformer Solutions. As discussed in Note 1, on October 1, 2021, we completed the sale of Transformer Solutions. Immediately prior to the sale, we extinguished the existing commodity contracts and reclassified from AOCI a net loss of $0.6 to “Gain (loss) on disposition of discontinued operations, net of tax” within our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021. At December 31, 2020, the outstanding notional amount of commodity contracts was 3.2 pounds of copper. Prior to extinguishment, we designated and accounted for these contracts as cash flow hedges and, to the extent the commodity contracts were effective in offsetting the variability of the forecasted purchases, the change in fair value was included in AOCI. We reclassified amounts associated with our commodity contracts out of AOCI when the forecasted transaction impacted earnings. As of December 31, 2020, the fair value of these contracts was a current asset of $2.4. Since these commodity contracts related to our Transformer Solutions business, the amount has been recorded within assets of discontinued operations in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. The unrealized gain, net of taxes, recorded in AOCI was $1.5 as of December 31, 2020.

The weighted-average number of restricted stock units and stock options excluded from the computation of diluted income per share because the assumed proceeds for these instruments exceed the average market value of the underlying common stock for the related period were 0.222 and 0.631, respectively, for the three months ended October 2, 2021, and 0.261 and 0.631, respectively, for the nine months ended October 2, 2021.

The weighted-average number of restricted stock units and stock options excluded from the computation of diluted income per share because the assumed proceeds for these instruments exceed the average market value of the underlying common stock for the related period were 0.352 and 0.858, respectively, for the three months ended September 26, 2020, and 0.346 and 0.817, respectively, for the nine months ended September 26, 2020.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation

Long-term incentive compensation awards may be granted to certain eligible employees or non-employee directors. A detailed description of the awards granted prior to 2021 is included in our 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Awards granted on March 1, 2021 to executive officers and other members of senior management were comprised of performance stock units (“PSU’s”), stock options, and time-based restricted stock units (“RSU’s”), while other eligible employees were granted PSU’s and RSU’s. The PSU’s are eligible to vest at the end of a three-year performance period, with performance based on the total return of our stock over the three-year performance period against a peer group within the S&P 600 Capital Goods Index. Stock options and RSU’s vest ratably over the three-year period subsequent to the date of grant.

Effective May 11, 2021, we granted 0.017 RSU's to our non-employee directors, which vest in their entirety immediately prior to the annual meeting of stockholders in May 2022.

Compensation expense within income from continuing operations related to long-term incentive awards totaled $3.4 and $3.2 for the three months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020 and $9.5 and $9.6 for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively. The related tax benefit was $0.6 and $0.8 for the three months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020 and $1.6 and $2.4 for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, respectively.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS

General

Numerous claims, complaints and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business have been asserted or are pending against us or certain of our subsidiaries (collectively, “claims”). These claims relate to litigation matters (e.g., class actions, derivative lawsuits and contracts, intellectual property and competitive claims), environmental matters, product liability matters (predominately associated with alleged exposure to asbestos-containing materials), and other risk management matters (e.g., general liability, automobile, and workers’ compensation claims). Additionally, we may become subject to other claims of which we are currently unaware, which may be significant, or the claims of which we are aware may result in our incurring significantly greater loss than we anticipate. While we (and our subsidiaries) maintain property, cargo, auto, product, general liability, environmental, and directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and have acquired rights under similar policies in connection with acquisitions that we believe cover a significant portion of these claims, this insurance may be insufficient or unavailable (e.g., in the case of insurer insolvency) to protect us against potential loss exposures. Also, while we believe we are entitled to indemnification from third parties for some of these claims, these rights may be insufficient or unavailable to protect us against potential loss exposures.

Our recorded liabilities related to these matters totaled $540.4 and $575.7 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Of these amounts, $469.5 and $499.8 are included in “Other long-term liabilities” within our condensed consolidated balance sheets at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, with the remainder included in “Accrued expenses.” The liabilities we record for these matters are based on a number of assumptions, including historical claims and payment experience. While we base our assumptions on facts currently known to us, they entail inherently subjective judgments and uncertainties. As a result, our current assumptions for estimating these liabilities may not prove accurate, and we may be required to adjust these liabilities in the future, which could result in charges to earnings. These variances relative to current expectations could have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

Our asbestos-related claims are typical in certain of the industries in which we operate or pertain to legacy businesses we no longer operate. It is not unusual in these cases for fifty or more corporate entities to be named as defendants. We vigorously defend these claims, many of which are dismissed without payment, and the significant majority of costs related to these claims have historically been paid pursuant to our insurance arrangements. Our recorded assets and liabilities related to asbestos-related claims were as follows at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

	October 2, 2021		December 31, 2020
Insurance recovery assets (1)	$	453.9	$	496.4
Liabilities for claims (2)	499.4		535.2

__________________________

(1)Of these amounts, $403.9 and $446.4 are included in “Other assets” at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, while the remainder is included in “Other current assets.”

(2)Of these amounts, $444.8 and $479.9 are included in “Other long-term liabilities” at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, while the remainder is included in “Accrued expenses.”

The liabilities we record for asbestos-related claims are based on a number of assumptions. In estimating our liabilities for asbestos-related claims, we consider, among other things, the following:

• The number of pending claims by disease type and jurisdiction.

• Historical information by disease type and jurisdiction with regard to:

◦ Average number of claims settled with payment (versus dismissed without payment); and

◦ Average claim settlement amounts.

• The period over which we can reasonably project asbestos-related claims (currently projecting through 2057).

The following table presents information regarding activity for the asbestos-related claims for the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020:

	Nine months ended	Nine months ended
	October 2, 2021	September 26, 2020
Pending claims, beginning of period	9,782	11,079
Claims filed	2,044	1,730
Claims resolved	(1,797)	(2,651)
Pending claims, end of period	10,029	10,158

The assets we record for asbestos-related claims represent amounts that we believe we are or will be entitled to recover under agreements we have with insurance companies. The amount of these assets are based on a number of assumptions, including the continued solvency of the insurers and our legal interpretation of our rights for recovery under the agreements we have with the insurers. Our current assumptions for estimating these assets may not prove accurate, and we may be required to adjust these assets in the future. These variances relative to current expectations could have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations.

During the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, our (receipts) payments for asbestos-related claims, net of respective insurance recoveries of $39.8 and $23.3, were $(2.2) and $15.8, respectively. The nine months ended October 2, 2021 includes insurance proceeds of $15.0, associated with the settlement of an asbestos insurance coverage matter. A significant increase in claims, costs and/or issues with existing insurance coverage (e.g., dispute with or insolvency of insurer(s)) could have a material adverse impact on our share of future payments related to these matters, and, as a result, have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

During the nine months ended October 2, 2021, we recorded a charge of $2.7 related to revisions of recorded assets for asbestos-related claims. There were no other changes in estimates associated with our assets and liabilities related to our asbestos product liability matters during the three and nine months ended October 2, 2021 and three and nine months ended September 26, 2020.

Large Power Projects in South Africa

Overview - Since 2008, DBT has been executing contracts on two large power projects in South Africa (Kusile and Medupi). Over such time, the business environment surrounding these projects has been difficult, as DBT, along with many other contractors on the projects, have experienced delays, cost over-runs, and various other challenges associated with a complex set of contractual relationships among the end customer, prime contractors, various subcontractors (including DBT and its subcontractors), and various suppliers. DBT has substantially completed its scope of work, with its remaining responsibilities related largely to resolution of various claims, primarily between itself and one of its prime contractors, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Power—ZAF, or “MHI.”

The challenges related to the projects have resulted in (i) significant adjustments to our revenue and cost estimates for the projects, (ii) DBT’s submission of numerous change orders to the prime contractors, (iii) various claims and disputes between DBT and other parties involved with the projects (e.g., prime contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, etc.), and (iv) the possibility that DBT may become subject to additional claims, which could be significant. It is possible that some outstanding claims may not be resolved until after the prime contractors complete their scopes of work. Our future financial position, operating results, and cash flows could be materially impacted by the resolution of current and any future claims.

Claims by DBT - DBT has asserted claims against MHI of approximately South African Rand 1,100.0 (or $72.5). As DBT prepares these claims for dispute resolution processes, the amounts, along with the characterization, of the claims could change. Of these claims, South African Rand 566.5 (or $37.4), which is inclusive of the amounts awarded in the adjudications referred to below, are currently proceeding through contractual dispute resolution processes and DBT is likely to initiate additional dispute resolution processes. DBT is also pursuing several claims to force MHI to abide by its contractual obligations and provide DBT with certain benefits that MHI may have received from its customer on the projects. In addition to existing asserted claims, DBT believes it has additional claims and rights to recovery based on its performance under the contracts with, and actions taken by, MHI. DBT is continuing to evaluate the claims and the amounts owed to it under the contracts based on MHI's failure to comply with its contractual obligations. The amounts DBT may recover for current and potential future claims against MHI are not currently known given (i) the extent of current and potential future claims by MHI against DBT (see below for further discussion) and (ii) the unpredictable nature of any dispute resolution processes that may occur in connection with these current and potential future claims. No revenue has been recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to current or potential future claims against MHI.

On July 23, 2020, a dispute adjudication panel issued a ruling in favor of DBT on certain matters related to the Kusile and Medupi projects. The panel (i) ruled that DBT had achieved takeover on 9 of the units; (ii) ordered MHI to return $2.3 of bonds (which have been subsequently returned by MHI); (iii) ruled that DBT is entitled to the return of an additional $4.5 of bonds upon the completion of certain administrative milestones; (iv) ordered MHI to pay South African Rand 18.4 (or $1.1 at the time of the ruling) in incentive payments for work performed by DBT (which MHI has subsequently paid); and (v) ruled that MHI waived its rights to assert delay damages against DBT on one of the units of the Kusile project. The ruling is subject to MHI’s rights to seek further arbitration in the matter, as provided in the contracts. As such, the incentive payments noted above have not been recorded in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On February 22, 2021, a dispute adjudication panel issued a ruling in favor of DBT related to costs incurred in connection with delays on two units of the Kusile project. In connection with the ruling, MHI paid DBT South African Rand 126.6 (or $8.6 at the time of payment). This ruling is subject to MHI’s rights to seek further arbitration in the matter and, thus, the amount awarded has not been reflected in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended October 2, 2021. On July 5, 2021, DBT received notice from MHI of its intent to seek final and binding arbitration in this matter.

On April 28, 2021, a dispute adjudication panel issued a ruling in favor of DBT related to costs incurred in connection with delays on two units of the Medupi project. In connection with the ruling, MHI paid DBT South African Rand 82.0 (or $6.0 at the time of payment). This ruling is subject to MHI’s rights to seek further arbitration in the matter and, thus, the amount awarded has not been reflected in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended October 2, 2021.

Claims by MHI - On February 26, 2019, DBT received notification of an interim claim consisting of both direct and consequential damages from MHI alleging, among other things, that DBT (i) provided defective product and (ii) failed to meet certain project milestones. In September 2020, MHI made a demand on certain bonds issued in its favor by DBT, based solely on these alleged defects, but without further substantiation or other justification (see further discussion below). On December 30, 2020, MHI notified DBT of its intent to take these claims to binding arbitration. On June 4, 2021, in connection with the arbitration, DBT received a revised version of the claim. Similar to the interim claim, we believe the vast majority of the damages summarized in the revised claim are unsubstantiated and, thus, any loss for the majority of these claims is considered remote. For the remainder of the claims in both the interim notification and the revised version, which largely appear to be direct in nature (approximately South African Rand 950.0 or $62.6), DBT has numerous defenses and, thus, we do not believe that DBT has a probable loss associated with these claims. As such, no loss has been recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to these claims. DBT intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims. Although it is reasonably possible that some loss may be incurred in connection with these claims, we currently are unable to estimate the potential loss or range of potential loss associated with these claims due to the (i) lack of support provided by MHI for these claims; (ii) complexity of contractual relationships between the end customer, MHI, and DBT; (iii) legal interpretation of the contract provisions and application of South African law to the contracts; and (iv) unpredictable nature of any dispute resolution processes that may occur in connection with these claims.

In April and July 2019, DBT received notifications of intent to claim liquidated damages totaling South African Rand 407.2 (or $26.9) from MHI alleging that DBT failed to meet certain project milestones related to the construction of the filters for both the Kusile and Medupi projects. DBT has numerous defenses against these claims and, thus, we do not believe that DBT has a probable loss associated with these claims. As such, no loss has been recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to these claims. Although it is reasonably possible that some loss may be incurred in connection with these claims, we currently are unable to estimate the potential loss or range of potential loss.

MHI has made other claims against DBT totaling South African Rand 176.2 (or $11.6). DBT has numerous defenses against these claims and, thus, we do not believe that DBT has a probable loss associated with these claims. As such, no loss has been recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to these claims.

Bonds Issued in Favor of MHI - DBT is obligated with respect to bonds issued by banks in favor of MHI. In September of 2020, MHI made a demand, and received payment of South African Rand 239.6 (or $14.3 at the time of payment), on certain of these bonds. In May 2021, MHI made an additional demand, and received payment of South African Rand 178.7 (or $12.5 at the time of payment), on certain of the remaining bonds at such time. In both cases, we funded the payment as required under the terms of the bonds and our senior credit agreement. In its demands, MHI purported that DBT failed to carry out its obligations to rectify certain alleged product defects and that DBT failed to meet certain project milestones. DBT denies liability for such allegations and, thus, fully intends to seek, and believes it is legally entitled to, reimbursement of the South African Rand 418.3 (or $27.6) that has been paid. However, given the extent and complexities of the claims between DBT and MHI, reimbursement of the South African Rand 418.3 (or $27.6) is unlikely to occur over the next twelve months. As such, we have reflected the South African Rand 418.3 (or $27.6) as a non-current asset within our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 2, 2021.

The remaining bond of $1.9 issued to MHI as a performance guarantee could be exercised by MHI for an alleged breach of DBT's obligation. In the event that MHI were to receive payment on a portion, or all, of the remaining bond, we would be required to reimburse the issuing bank.

In addition to this bond, SPX Corporation has guaranteed DBT’s performance on these projects to the prime contractors, including MHI.

Claim against Surety - On February 5, 2021, DBT received payment of $6.7 on bonds issued in support of performance by one of DBT's sub-contractors. The sub-contractor maintains a right to seek recovery of such amount and, thus, the amount received by DBT has not been reflected in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended October 2, 2021.

Litigation Matters

We are subject to other legal matters that arise in the normal course of business. We believe these matters are either without merit or of a kind that should not have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows; however, we cannot assure you that these proceedings or claims will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Environmental Matters

Our operations and properties are subject to federal, state, local and foreign regulatory requirements relating to environmental protection. It is our policy to comply fully with all applicable requirements. As part of our effort to comply, we have a comprehensive environmental compliance program that includes environmental audits conducted by internal and external independent professionals, as well as regular communications with our operating units regarding environmental compliance requirements and anticipated regulations. Based on current information, we believe that our operations are in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations, and we are not aware of any violations that could have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our business, financial condition, and results of operations or cash flows. As of October 2, 2021, we had liabilities for site investigation and/or remediation at 25 sites (25 sites at December 31, 2020) that we own or control, or formerly owned and controlled. In addition, while we believe that we maintain adequate accruals to cover the costs of site investigation and/or remediation, we cannot provide assurance that new matters, developments, laws and regulations, or stricter interpretations of existing laws and regulations will not materially affect our business or operations in the future.

Our environmental accruals cover anticipated costs, including investigation, remediation, and maintenance of clean-up sites. Our estimates are based primarily on investigations and remediation plans established by independent consultants, regulatory agencies and potentially responsible third parties. Accordingly, our estimates may change based on future developments, including new or changes in existing environmental laws or policies, differences in costs required to complete anticipated actions from estimates provided, future findings of investigation or remediation actions, or alteration to the expected remediation plans. It is our policy to revise an estimate once the revision becomes probable and the amount of change can be reasonably estimated. We generally do not discount our environmental accruals and do not reduce them by anticipated insurance recoveries. We take into account third-party indemnification from financially viable parties in determining our accruals where there is no dispute regarding the right to indemnification.

In the case of contamination at offsite, third-party disposal sites, as of October 2, 2021, we have been notified that we are potentially responsible and have received other notices of potential liability pursuant to various environmental laws at 11 sites at which the liability has not been settled, of which 9 sites have been active in the past few years. These laws may impose liability on certain persons that are considered jointly and severally liable for the costs of investigation and remediation of hazardous substances present at these sites, regardless of fault or legality of the original disposal. These persons include the present or former owners or operators of the site and companies that generated, disposed of or arranged for the disposal of hazardous substances at the site. We are considered a “de minimis” potentially responsible party at most of the sites, and we estimate that our aggregate liability, if any, related to these sites is not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements. We conduct extensive environmental due diligence with respect to potential acquisitions, including environmental site assessments and such further testing as we may deem warranted. If an environmental matter is identified, we estimate the cost and either establish a liability, purchase insurance or obtain an indemnity from a financially sound seller; however, in connection with our acquisitions or dispositions, we may assume or retain significant environmental liabilities, some of which we may be unaware. The potential costs related to these environmental matters and the possible impact on future operations are uncertain due in part to the complexity of government laws and regulations and their interpretations, the varying costs and effectiveness of various clean-up technologies, the uncertain level of insurance or other types of recovery, and the questionable level of our responsibility. We record a liability when it is both probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

In our opinion, after considering accruals established for such purposes, the cost of remedial actions for compliance with the present laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment are not expected to have a material impact, individually or in the aggregate, on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Self-insured Risk Management Matters

We are self-insured for certain of our workers’ compensation, automobile, product and general liability, disability and health costs, and we believe that we maintain adequate accruals to cover our retained liability. Our accruals for risk management matters are determined by us, are based on claims filed and estimates of claims incurred but not yet reported, and generally are not discounted. We consider a number of factors, including third-party actuarial valuations, when making these determinations. We maintain third-party stop-loss insurance policies to cover certain liability costs in excess of predetermined retained amounts. The insurance may be insufficient or unavailable (e.g., because of insurer insolvency) to protect us against loss exposure.

INCOME AND OTHER TAXES

9 Months Ended

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME AND OTHER TAXES

INCOME AND OTHER TAXES

Uncertain Tax Benefits

As of October 2, 2021, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $7.3 (net unrecognized tax benefits of $6.4). All of these net unrecognized tax benefits would impact our effective tax rate from continuing operations if recognized.

We classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of our income tax provision. As of October 2, 2021, gross accrued interest totaled $3.1 (net accrued interest of $2.5). As of October 2, 2021, we had no accrual for penalties included in our unrecognized tax benefits.

Based on the outcome of certain examinations or as a result of the expiration of statutes of limitations for certain jurisdictions, we believe that within the next 12 months it is reasonably possible that our previously unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by up to $5.0. The previously unrecognized tax benefits relate to a variety of tax matters including transfer pricing and various state matters.

Other Tax Matters

For the three months ended October 2, 2021, we recorded an income tax provision of $3.7 on $11.4 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 32.5%. This compares to an income tax provision for the three months ended September 26, 2020 of $3.1 on $18.7 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 16.6%. The most significant item impacting the income tax provision for the third quarter of 2021 was $0.7 of expense related to the revaluation of certain deferred tax liabilities due to an enacted tax rate increase. The most significant item impacting the income tax provision for the third quarter of 2020 was $1.2 of tax benefits related to our U.S. tax credits and incentives.

For the nine months ended October 2, 2021, we recorded an income tax provision of $9.8 on $51.2 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 19.1%. This compares to an income tax provision for the nine months ended September 26, 2020 of $8.4 on $48.7 of pre-tax income from continuing operations, resulting in an effective rate of 17.2%. The most significant items impacting the income tax provision for the first nine months of 2021 were (i) a benefit of $2.2 related to the resolution of certain liabilities for uncertain tax positions and interest associated with various refund claims and (ii) $1.0 of excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation awards that vested and/or were exercised during the period, partially offset by (iii) $1.3 of expense related to the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities due to an enacted tax rate increase. The most significant items impacting the income tax provision for the first nine months of 2020 were (i) $1.5 of excess tax benefits resulting from stock-based compensation awards that vested and/or were exercised during the period, (ii) the $1.2 of tax benefits associated with U.S. tax credits and incentives noted above, and (iii) $0.5 of tax benefits associated with statute expirations in certain jurisdictions during the second quarter of 2020.

We perform reviews of our income tax positions on a continuous basis and accrue for potential uncertain positions when we determine that an uncertain position meets the criteria of the Income Taxes Topic of the Codification. Accruals for these uncertain tax positions are recorded in “Income taxes payable” and “Deferred and other income taxes” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the expectation as to the timing of when the matters will be resolved. As events change and resolutions occur, these accruals are adjusted, such as in the case of audit settlements with taxing authorities.

The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) concluded its audit of our 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 federal income tax returns. In connection with such, we recorded a tax benefit of $2.2 during the three months ended July 3, 2021 related to the resolution of certain liabilities for uncertain tax positions and interest associated with various refund claims.

State income tax returns generally are subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing the respective tax returns. The impact on such tax returns of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states. We have various state income tax returns in the process of examination. We believe any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.

We have various foreign income tax returns under examination. The most significant of these is in Germany for the 2010 through 2014 tax years. We believe that any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.

An unfavorable resolution of one or more of the above matters could have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows in the quarter and year in which an adjustment is recorded or the tax is due or paid. As audits and examinations are still in process, the timing of the ultimate resolution and any payments that may be required for the above matters cannot be determined at this time.

FAIR VALUE

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE

FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

•Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

•Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

There were no changes during the periods presented to the valuation techniques we use to measure asset and liability fair values on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. There were no transfers between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy for the periods presented.

Valuation Methodologies Used to Measure Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

Parent Guarantees and Bonds Associated with Balcke Dürr — In connection with the 2016 sale of Balcke Dürr, existing parent company guarantees and bank surety bonds, which totaled approximately Euro 79.0 and Euro 79.0, respectively, remained in place at the time of sale. These guarantees and bonds provided protections for Balcke Dürr customers in regard to advance payments, performance, and warranties on projects in existence at the time of sale. In addition, certain bonds related to lease obligations and foreign tax matters in existence at the time of sale. Balcke Dürr and the acquirer of Balcke Dürr provided us an indemnity in the event that any of the bonds were called or payments were made under the guarantees. Also, at the time of sale, Balcke Dürr provided cash collateral of Euro 4.0 and the parent company of the buyer provided a guarantee of Euro 5.0 as a security for the above indemnifications (Euro 0.0 and Euro 1.0, respectively, at October 2, 2021). In connection with the sale, we recorded a liability for the estimated fair value of the guarantees and bonds and an asset for the estimated fair value of the cash collateral and indemnities provided. Since the sale of Balcke Dürr, the guarantees have expired and bonds have been periodically returned. As of October 2, 2021, all remaining bonds have been returned. Summarized below are changes in the liability and asset during the nine months ended October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020.

	Nine months ended
	October 2, 2021				September 26, 2020
	Guarantees and Bonds Liability (1)		Indemnification Assets (1)		Guarantees and Bonds Liability (1)		Indemnification Assets (1)
Balance at beginning of year	$	1.8	$	—	$	2.0	$	0.3
Reduction/Amortization for the period (2)	(1.7)		—		(0.3)		(0.2)
Impact of changes in foreign currency rates	(0.1)		—		0.1		—
Balance at end of period	$	—	$	—	$	1.8	$	0.1

___________________________

(1)In connection with the sale, we estimated the fair value of the existing parent company guarantees and bank and surety bonds considering the probability of default by Balcke Dürr and an estimate of the amount we would be obligated to pay in the event of a default. Additionally, we estimated the fair value of the cash collateral provided by Balcke Dürr and guarantee provided by mutares AG based on the terms and conditions and relative risk associated with each of these securities (unobservable inputs - Level 3).

(2)We reduced the liability generally at the earlier of the completion of the related underlying project milestones or the expiration of the guarantees or bonds. We amortized the asset based on the expiration terms of each of the securities. We recorded the reduction of the liability and the amortization of the asset to “Other income, net.”    

Contingent Consideration for Sensors & Software and ECS Acquisitions - In connection with the acquisitions of Sensors & Software and ECS, the respective sellers are eligible for additional cash consideration of up to $3.9 and $16.8, respectively, with payment of such contingent consideration dependent upon the achievement of certain milestones. The estimated fair value of such contingent consideration is $0.7 and $8.2, respectively, with such amounts reflected as liabilities within our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration for these acquisitions based on the probability of Sensors & Software and ECS achieving the applicable milestones.

Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets — Certain of our non-financial assets are subject to impairment analysis, including long-lived assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. We review the carrying amounts of such assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable or at least annually for indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. Any resulting asset impairment would require that the instrument be recorded at its fair value.

Valuation Methodologies Used to Measure Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Derivative Financial Instruments — Our financial derivative assets and liabilities include commodity contracts (until the sale of Transformer Solutions), interest rate swaps, and FX forward contracts, valued using valuation models based on observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and the credit risk of our counterparties, which comprise investment-grade financial institutions. Based on these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. We have not made any adjustments to the inputs obtained from the independent sources. Based on our continued ability to enter into forward contracts, we consider the markets for our fair value instruments active. We primarily use the income approach, which uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount.

As of October 2, 2021, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative liabilities due to our own credit risk, as the related instruments are collateralized under our senior credit facilities. Similarly, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative assets based on our evaluation of our counterparties’ credit risks.

Equity Security — We estimate the fair value of an equity security that we hold utilizing a practical expedient under existing guidance, with such estimated fair value based on our ownership percentage applied to the net asset value of the investee as presented in the investee’s most recent audited financial statements. During the three and nine months ended

October 2, 2021 and September 26, 2020, we recorded a gain of $1.6 and $9.0, respectively and $2.1 and $7.4, respectively, to “Other income, net” to reflect an increase in the estimated fair value of the equity security. As of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the equity security had an estimated fair value of $36.0 and $27.0, respectively.

Indebtedness and Other — The estimated fair value of our debt instruments as of October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020 approximated the related carrying values due primarily to the variable market-based interest rates for such instruments. See Note 12 for further details.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION (Policies)

9 Months Ended

Oct. 02, 2021

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules and regulations, certain footnotes or other financial information normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) can be condensed or omitted. The financial statements represent our accounts after the elimination of intercompany transactions and, in our opinion, include the adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary for their fair presentation. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts provided in these Notes pertain to continuing operations only (see Note 3 for information on discontinued operations).

Variable Interest Entity

We account for investments in unconsolidated companies where we exercise significant influence but do not have control using the equity method. In determining whether we are the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), we perform a qualitative analysis that considers the design of the VIE, the nature of our involvement and the variable interests held by other parties to determine which party has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, and which party has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. All of our VIEs are considered immaterial, individually and in aggregate, to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Wind-Down of the SPX Heat Transfer Business

Wind-Down of the SPX Heat Transfer Business

As a continuation of our strategic shift away from power-generation markets, during the fourth quarter of 2020, we completed the wind-down of the SPX Heat Transfer business (“Heat Transfer”), which included providing all products and services on the business’s remaining contracts with customers. As a result, we are reporting Heat Transfer as a discontinued operation in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. See Note 3 for additional details.

Use of Estimates

Preparing financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The unaudited information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year results.

Fiscal Period

We establish actual interim closing dates using a fiscal calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on the Saturday closest to the end of the first calendar quarter, with the second and third quarters being 91 days in length. Our fourth quarter ends on December 31. The interim closing dates for the first, second and third quarters of 2021 are April 3, July 3 and October 2, compared to the respective March 28, June 27 and September 26, 2020 dates. We had five more days in the first quarter of 2021 and will have six fewer days in the fourth quarter of 2021 than in the respective 2020 periods. It is not practicable to estimate the impact of the five additional days on our consolidated operating results for the nine months ended October 2, 2021, when compared to the consolidated operating results for the 2020 respective period.

New Accounting Pronouncements

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The following is a summary of new accounting pronouncements that apply or may apply to our business.

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 changes how entities measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income, based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The requirements of ASU 2016-13 are to be applied on a modified retrospective basis, which entails

recognizing the initial effect of adoption in retained earnings. We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020, which resulted in an increase of our retained deficit of $0.5.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740). This ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by, among other things, eliminating certain existing exceptions related to the general approach in ASC 740 relating to franchise taxes, reducing complexity in the interim-period accounting for year-to-date loss limitations and changes in tax laws, and clarifying the accounting for the step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The transition requirements are primarily prospective and the effective date is for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2021, with no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) is scheduled to be discontinued on June 30, 2023, with some tenors ceasing on December 31, 2021. In an effort to address the various challenges created by such discontinuance, the FASB issued two amendments to existing guidance, ASU No. 2020-04 and No. 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform. The amended guidance is designed to provide relief from the accounting analysis and impacts that may otherwise be required for modifications to agreements (e.g., loans, debt securities, derivatives, etc.) necessitated by the reference rate reform. It also provides optional expedients to enable companies to continue to apply hedge accounting to certain hedging relationships impacted by the reference rate reform. Application of the guidance in the amendments is optional, is only available in certain situations, and is only available for companies to apply until December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impacts of reference rate reform and the new guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Inventories, net

Inventories include material, labor and factory overhead costs and are reduced, when necessary, to estimated net realizable values. Certain inventories are valued using the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

We perform our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter in conjunction with our annual financial planning process, with such testing based primarily on events and circumstances existing as of the end of the third quarter. In addition, we test goodwill for impairment on a more frequent basis if there are indications of potential impairment. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indication of impairment has occurred between annual testing dates. Such indication may include: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a significant adverse change in legal factors or the business climate; unanticipated competition; and a more likely than not expectation of selling or disposing all, or a portion, of a reporting unit.

Based on our annual goodwill impairment testing during the fourth quarter of 2020, we concluded that the estimated fair value of each of our reporting units, exclusive of Cues, Inc. (“Cues”), Patterson-Kelley, LLC (“Patterson-Kelley”) and ULC, exceeded the carrying value of their respective net assets by over 75%. The estimated fair values of Cues and Patterson-Kelley exceeded the carrying value of their respective net assets by approximately 12% and 3%, while ULC's fair value approximates the carrying value of its net assets. The total goodwill for Cues, Patterson-Kelley and ULC was $47.9, $14.2 and $17.1, respectively, as of October 2, 2021. A change in assumptions used in valuing Cues, Patterson-Kelley, or ULC (e.g., projected revenues and profit growth rates, discount rates, industry price multiples, etc.) could result in these reporting units estimated fair value being less than the respective carrying value of their net assets. If any of these reporting units is unable to achieve its current financial forecast, we may be required to record an impairment charge in a future period related to its goodwill.

We perform our annual trademarks impairment testing during the fourth quarter, or on a more frequent basis, if there are indications of potential impairment. The fair values of our trademarks are determined by applying estimated royalty rates to projected revenues, with the resulting cash flows discounted at a rate of return that reflects current market conditions (fair value based on unobservable inputs - Level 3, as defined in Note 17). The primary basis for these projected revenues is the annual operating plan for each of the related businesses, which is prepared in the fourth quarter of each year.

Currency Forward Contracts

Currency Forward Contracts

We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency-denominated cash flows and to minimize the impact of changes as a result of currency fluctuations. Our principal currency exposures relate to the South African Rand, British Pound Sterling (“GBP”), and Euro.

From time to time, we enter into forward contracts to manage the exposure on contracts with forecasted transactions denominated in non-functional currencies and to manage the risk of transaction gains and losses associated with assets/liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of certain subsidiaries (“FX forward contracts”). None of our FX forward contracts are designated as cash flow hedges.

Potential Uncertain Positions

We perform reviews of our income tax positions on a continuous basis and accrue for potential uncertain positions when we determine that an uncertain position meets the criteria of the Income Taxes Topic of the Codification. Accruals for these uncertain tax positions are recorded in “Income taxes payable” and “Deferred and other income taxes” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets based on the expectation as to the timing of when the matters will be resolved. As events change and resolutions occur, these accruals are adjusted, such as in the case of audit settlements with taxing authorities.

The Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) concluded its audit of our 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017 federal income tax returns. In connection with such, we recorded a tax benefit of $2.2 during the three months ended July 3, 2021 related to the resolution of certain liabilities for uncertain tax positions and interest associated with various refund claims.

State income tax returns generally are subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing the respective tax returns. The impact on such tax returns of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states. We have various state income tax returns in the process of examination. We believe any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.

We have various foreign income tax returns under examination. The most significant of these is in Germany for the 2010 through 2014 tax years. We believe that any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.

An unfavorable resolution of one or more of the above matters could have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows in the quarter and year in which an adjustment is recorded or the tax is due or paid. As audits and examinations are still in process, the timing of the ultimate resolution and any payments that may be required for the above matters cannot be determined at this time.

Fair Value

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:

•Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

•Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

•Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets — Certain of our non-financial assets are subject to impairment analysis, including long-lived assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. We review the carrying amounts of such assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable or at least annually for indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. Any resulting asset impairment would require that the instrument be recorded at its fair value.

Valuation Methodologies Used to Measure Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Derivative Financial Instruments — Our financial derivative assets and liabilities include commodity contracts (until the sale of Transformer Solutions), interest rate swaps, and FX forward contracts, valued using valuation models based on observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and the credit risk of our counterparties, which comprise investment-grade financial institutions. Based on these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. We have not made any adjustments to the inputs obtained from the independent sources. Based on our continued ability to enter into forward contracts, we consider the markets for our fair value instruments active. We primarily use the income approach, which uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount.

As of October 2, 2021, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative liabilities due to our own credit risk, as the related instruments are collateralized under our senior credit facilities. Similarly, there has been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative assets based on our evaluation of our counterparties’ credit risks.

(1)Reflects (i) goodwill acquired with the Sealite and ECS acquisitions of $38.5 and $20.6, respectively, (ii) an increase in ULC's goodwill during 2021 of $3.1 resulting from revisions to the valuation of certain assets and liabilities and income tax accounts, and (iii) an increase in Sensors & Software's goodwill of $2.0 resulting from revisions to the valuation of certain assets and liabilities and income tax accounts. As indicated in Note 1, the acquired assets, including goodwill, and liabilities assumed in the Sealite, ECS and Sensors & Software acquisitions have been recorded at estimates of fair value and are subject to change upon completion of acquisition accounting.

(2)As indicated in Note 1, we concluded during the third quarter of 2021 that the operating and financial milestones related to the ULC contingent consideration would not be achieved, resulting in the reversal of the related liability of $24.3, with the offset to “Other operating (income) expense.” We also concluded that the lack of achievement of these milestones, along with lower than anticipated future cash flows, are indicators of potential impairment related to ULC’s indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. As such, we tested ULC’s indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill for impairment during the quarter. Based on such testing, we determined that the carrying value of ULC’s net assets exceeded the implied fair value of the business. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge to “Other operating (income) expense” of $24.3 during the quarter, with $23.3 related to goodwill and the remainder to trademarks.

Schedule of Identifiable Intangible Assets

Identifiable intangible assets at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020 comprised the following:

___________________________

(1)While not due for repayment until December 2024 under the terms of our senior credit agreement, we classify within current liabilities the portion of the outstanding balance that we believe will be repaid over the next year, with such amount based on an estimate of cash that is expected to be generated over such period.

(2)The term loan is repayable in quarterly installments beginning in the first quarter of 2021, with the quarterly installments equal to 0.625% of the initial term loan balance of $250.0 during 2021, 1.25% in each of the four quarters of 2022 and 2023, and 1.25% during the first three quarters of 2024. The remaining balance is payable in full on December 17, 2024. Balances are net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.1 and $1.4 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

(3)Under this arrangement, we can borrow, on a continuous basis, up to $50.0, as available. Borrowings under this arrangement are collateralized by eligible trade receivables of certain of our businesses.

(4)Primarily includes balances under a purchase card program of $2.3 and $1.7 and finance lease obligations of $1.1 and $2.6 at October 2, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The purchase card program allows for payment beyond the normal payment terms for goods and services acquired under the program. As this arrangement extends the payment of these purchases beyond their normal payment terms through third-party lending institutions, we have classified these amounts as short-term debt. 

(5)“Other” primarily includes debt assumed, foreign currency translation on any debt instruments denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and the impact of amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the term loan.

(1)In connection with the sale, we estimated the fair value of the existing parent company guarantees and bank and surety bonds considering the probability of default by Balcke Dürr and an estimate of the amount we would be obligated to pay in the event of a default. Additionally, we estimated the fair value of the cash collateral provided by Balcke Dürr and guarantee provided by mutares AG based on the terms and conditions and relative risk associated with each of these securities (unobservable inputs - Level 3).

(2)We reduced the liability generally at the earlier of the completion of the related underlying project milestones or the expiration of the guarantees or bonds. We amortized the asset based on the expiration terms of each of the securities. We recorded the reduction of the liability and the amortization of the asset to “Other income, net.”
