Pursuant to the Rexnord Transaction, (i) Zurn transferred to its then-subsidiary Land Newco, Inc. (“Land”) substantially all of the assets, and Land assumed substantially all of the liabilities, of the Rexnord PMC business (the “Reorganization”), (ii) after which all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Land (“Land common stock”) held by a subsidiary of Zurn were distributed in a series of distributions to Zurn’s stockholders (the “Distributions”, and the final distribution of Land common stock from Zurn to Zurn’s stockholders, which was made pro rata for no consideration, the “Spin-Off”) and (iii) immediately after the Spin-Off, one of our subsidiaries (“Merger Sub”) merged with and into Land (the “Merger”) and all shares of Land common stock (other than those held by Zurn, Land, the Company, Merger Sub or their respective subsidiaries) were converted as of the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”) into the right to receive 0.22296103 shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Company common stock”), as calculated in the Merger Agreement. When the Merger was completed, Land, which held the Rexnord PMC business, became our wholly owned subsidiary.

Pursuant to the Merger, we issued approximately 27,055,945 shares of Company common stock to holders of Land common stock, which represents approximately 39.9% of the approximately 67,756,732 outstanding shares of Company common stock immediately following the Effective Time. In addition, holders of record of Company common stock as of October 1, 2021 received $6.99 per share of Company common stock pursuant to a previously announced special dividend in connection with the Rexnord Transaction (the “Special Dividend”).

The total consideration transferred for the acquisition of Land was approximately $4.0 billion subject to finalization of purchase accounting and working capital adjustments. The total assets and liabilities assumed will be adjusted, based on the final balances per the terms included within the Separation and Distribution Agreement.

We operate large distribution facilities in Plainfield, Indiana; El Paso and McAllen, Texas; LaVergne, Tennessee; Florence, Kentucky; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; and Monterrey, Mexico which serve as hubs for our North American distribution and logistics operations. Products are shipped from these facilities to our customers utilizing common carriers. We also operate or partner with numerous warehouse and distribution facilities in our global markets to service the needs of our customers. In addition, we have select manufacturer representatives' warehouses located in specific geographic areas to serve local customers.

We derive a significant portion of revenue from our OEM customers. In our HVAC business, a large portion of our sales are to key OEM customers which makes our relationship with each of these customers important to our business. We have long standing relationships with these customers and we expect these customer relationships will continue for the foreseeable future. Despite this relative concentration, we had no customer that accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated net sales in fiscal 2021, fiscal 2020 or fiscal 2019.

Many of our motors are incorporated into residential applications that OEMs sell to end users. The number of installations of new and replacement HVAC systems, pool pumps and related components is higher during the spring and summer seasons due to the increased use of air conditioning and swimming pools during warmer months. As a result, our revenues tend to be higher in the second and third quarters.

Strategy

The Company seeks to create value for its key stakeholders – its customers, its shareholders and its associates – by continuing to transform our business into a faster-growing, higher margin, more cash generative and higher return operating company, including by deploying capital towards select and highly synergistic M&A activities. We expect to continue this transformation for many years to come. The primary aspects of our strategy to further our transformation include:

•Leveraging our 80/20 Initiatives to accelerate profitable growth. Our 80/20 initiatives encompass broadly-applicable, data-driven processes used to identify the select inputs that drive a majority of the related outputs, which we often apply to products or customers in order to focus our resources on the most valuable opportunities. Our 80/20 initiatives are embedded in the fabric of everything we do as a company, but particularly in aligning our product and service offerings to what our customers need and value – an alignment we measure on several metrics, but especially on our gross margins.

•Deploying the Regal Rexnord Business System (‘‘RBS’’). RBS is our framework for continuous improvement, and it includes a set of tools, regularly deployed through thousands of targeted, continuous improvement events, or Kaizens, to systematically remove waste, variation and overburden from all our processes. Our disciplined use of RBS, in combination with our 80/20 initiatives, is critical to our strategy for driving profitable growth.

•Raising our exposure to markets with secular growth tailwinds. We are focused on growing our position in prioritized secular growth markets, including some with strong regulatory tailwinds tied to rising energy efficiency requirements. These markets include the food and beverage, alternative energy, aerospace, water, warehouse/eCommerce, pharmaceutical and data center markets. We plan to direct a significant portion of our growth investments to end markets with secular growth characteristics.

•Maintaining a strong portfolio of products and long-standing brands. Many of our products are characterized by technology leadership and reflect the Company’s deep application expertise. We regularly invest in our product portfolio to ensure that we are selling products that our customers value – a strategic directive embodied in our Regal Rexnord value of driving Innovation with Purpose. To this end, we except to double our new product vitality in the medium term with the majority of new product introductions focused on serving secular growth markets, expanding our industrial powertrain offering, supporting rising demand for greater energy efficiency, and/or leveraging digital capabilities to enhance performance.

•Providing a broader offering of increasingly robust sub-systems. One of our key product-related growth initiatives is selling more sub-systems, which integrate multiple products or components into a value-added solution. One of our

principal strategic initiatives in this regard is selling industrial powertrains, which combine our electric motors with the critical power transmission components that connect the motor to whatever it is powering, sold as a bundled solution. By engineering our components into integrated sub-systems, we are able to provide our customers with greater reliability, energy efficiency and enhanced data analytics. A dedicated powertrain solutions team leverages relevant product, technology and application expertise from across our four segments to provide a single point of contact for our customers to design and procure these sub-systems.

•Utilizing our flexible global manufacturing presence. Our global manufacturing base consists of more than 100 manufacturing locations across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and the rest of the world. Our ability to shift production between locations has helped us navigate geopolitical and supply-chain related disruptions, and provide better service levels to our customers, including better product availability and shorter lead times. We expect our flexible global manufacturing footprint will provide similar flexibility in the future.

•Continuing to generate strong profitability and free cash flows to reduce leverage. We expect to continue to maintain our long track record of strong free cash flow generation and de-leveraging post acquisitions.

•Realizing synergies from our M&A transactions. Our merger with the Rexnord PMC business and our acquisition of Arrowhead, both of which are discussed in additional detail below, are generating significant revenue and cost synergies, which we expect will accelerate our organic top line growth and benefit our adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) margins, net income, and free cash flow.

•Ongoing portfolio assessment. We review our business portfolio on an ongoing basis to ensure that it continues to align with our growth strategy. In November 2022, we announced our intention to explore strategic alternatives for the global motors and generators portion of our Industrial Systems segment, because this portion of our portfolio may no longer align with our growth strategy. As of the date of this filing, our strategic review remains underway, and may or may not result in a decision to divest this portion of our business.

Our vertically integrated manufacturing operations, including our own aluminum die casting and steel stamping operations, are an important element of our rapid response capabilities. In addition, we have an extensive internal logistics operation and a network of distribution facilities with the capability to modify stock products to quickly meet specific customer requirements. This gives us the ability to efficiently and promptly deliver a customer's unique product to the desired location.

We manufacture a majority of the products that we sell, but also strategically source components and finished goods from an established global network of suppliers. We strategically leverage a global supply chain to reduce our overall costs and lead-time. We generally maintain a dual sourcing capability to ensure a reliable supply source for our customers, although we do depend on a limited number of single source suppliers for certain materials and components. We regularly invest in machinery and equipment to improve and maintain our facilities. Base materials for our products consist primarily of steel, copper and aluminum. Additionally, significant components of our product costs consist of bearings, electronic assemblies, permanent magnets and ferrous and non-ferrous castings.

The Regal Rexnord Business System is our enterprise-wide framework for continuous improvement. With our corporate values as its foundation, the Regal Rexnord Business System enables effective goal alignment, collaborative problem solving and sharing of best practices, tools, skills and expertise to achieve our objectives. Through relentless commitment to continuous improvement, we strive to elevate safety, quality, delivery, cost and growth performance of the business with the goal of exceeding the expectations of our customers, our associates and our shareholders.

Facilities

We have manufacturing, sales and service facilities in the U.S., Mexico, China, Europe, India, Thailand, and Australia, as well as a number of other locations throughout the world. Our Commercial Systems segment currently includes 4452 manufacturing, service, office and distribution facilities of which 1316 are principal manufacturing facilities and 3 are principal warehouse facilities. The Commercial Systems segment's present operating facilities contain a total of approximately ~~3.7~~3.3 million square feet of space, of which approximately ~~33%~~24% are leased. Our Industrial Systems segment currently includes 2527 manufacturing, service, office and distribution facilities of which 1112 are principal manufacturing facilities and 18 is a principal warehouse facility.

We believe our equipment and facilities are well maintained and adequate for our present needs. However, we continuously evaluate our property portfolio, including properties that have been or will be transferred to us pursuant to acquisitions, to ensure that our facilities are being used efficiently.

Backlog

Our business units have historically shipped the majority of their products within a month from when the order was received. As of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022, our backlog was ~~$1,214.5~~$1,242.7 million, as compared to ~~$444.8~~$1,214.5 million on January ~~2, 2021.~~1, 2022. We believe that virtually all of our backlog will be shipped in fiscal ~~2022.~~2023.

Patents, Trademarks and Licenses

We own a number of US patents and foreign patents relating to our businesses. While we believe that our patents provide certain competitive advantages, we do not consider any one patent or group of patents essential to our business as a whole. We also use various registered and unregistered trademarks, and we believe these trademarks are significant in the marketing of most of our products. However, we believe the successful manufacture and sale of our products generally depends more upon our technological, manufacturing and marketing skills.

Human Capital Management

At the end of fiscal ~~2021,~~2022, we employed approximately ~~30,000~~26,000 full-time associates worldwide. Of those associates, approximately ~~13,000~~10,000 were located in Mexico; approximately 6,000 in the US; approximately 3,000 in China; approximately 3,000 in India; and approximately ~~5,000~~4,000 in the rest of the world.

We feel that our associates are our most valuable assets and consider our associate relations to be very good. Our objective is to create a high-performing organization by attracting and retaining high-quality, diverse talent and creating an environment in which all associates have the opportunity to reach their full potential.

The core goal of our performance management process is to develop and maintain a high-performing organization that is positioned to meet our business objectives. Creating a high-performing organization requires associates and managers to exhibit transparency in their day-to-day interactions, and use data to drive decision-making and accountability. Our performance management process focuses on enabling associates and managers to gain alignment through:

•a structured annual goal-setting process where managers and associates work collaboratively to develop specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time bound (SMART) goals that align with our overarching business objectives and our company values;

•clear, organization-wide expectations that managers and associates monitor progress toward completion of their SMART goals with regular coaching sessions and periodic evaluations; and

•an annual performance assessment that provides a direct link between the associate’s pay and performance.

In addition to our focus on performance, we also have a strong commitment to our company values of integrity, responsibility, diversity and inclusion, customer success, innovation with purpose, continuous improvement, performance, and a passion to win, all with a sense of urgency. We regularly promote these values from the top down. In addition to instilling our corporate values as a key part of associate life, we promote a commitment to ethics and compliance among our workforce through our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (our "Code"). In ~~2021, 94.5%~~2022, 93.6% of our global workforce (including employees, temporary employees and contractors), completed training on our Code during our annual training period. Our annual training period for 2021 occurred before the Rexnord and Automation Solutions transactions closed during the fourth quarter, so the new associates who joined the Company as part of those transactions are not included in our data.

As mentioned above, diversity and inclusion are rooted in our company values. We believe that we are at our best when we bring to bear the unique perspectives, experiences, backgrounds and ideas of our associates. We seek a workforce that reflects the communities in which we operate, and strive to create diverse, equal and inclusive workplaces where all of our associates have the opportunity to achieve their full potential. In 2021, as a sign of our commitment to this goal, we joined the CEO Action for Diversity and Inclusion, which is the largest CEO-driven organization committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace, and also signed the National Association of Manufacturers Pledge for Action to cement our commitment to advancing justice, equality and opportunity for all people of color.

We are also committed to improving the health and well-being of our associates. Our US wellness program was established in 2008 and is continuously evolving to better educate, motivate and reward our associates for maintaining and achieving healthy measures. During our wellness plan year running from October 1, ~~2020~~2021 through September 30, ~~2021, 52%~~2022, 59% of our US associates

participated in on-site biometric screening that provides them with key metrics such as BMI, blood pressure, and triglyceride, cholesterol and blood glucose levels. This represents an increase of ~~17%~~7% compared with our prior wellness plan year.

As a company, we believe that our value of responsibility requires community engagement, and we encourage our associates to share in our commitment to the communities where we operate. We have an established charitable foundation, which is governed by an advisory board comprised of our associates. In ~~2021,~~2022, the Company and the Company's Charitable Foundation contributed ~~$1,083,100~~$1,261,200 to charitable organizations, up from ~~$570,481~~$1,083,100 in ~~2020.~~2021. In 2021, the Charitable Foundation realigned its giving philosophy to support charitable organizations in more of the communities where our associates live and work globally. ~~Whereas the Charitable Foundation previously focused primarily on supporting charitable organizations in the US, the~~The amount we contributed internationally in ~~2021~~2022 (predominately in Mexico given the high concentration of our associates there) represented approximately ~~40%~~33% of our overall ~~contributions.~~contributions, down from approximately 40% in 2021.

Environmental Matters

We believe that positive environmental, social and governance ("ESG")-related business practices strengthen our Company, increase our connection with our stakeholders and help us better serve our customers and the communities in which we operate. In 2022, we announced our commitment to achieving carbon emission neutrality in our operations across scopes 1 and 2 by 2032, to achieving carbon emission neutrality across scopes 1, 2 and 3 by 2050, and to pursuing the latter in alignment with science based targets. We are beginning the foundational work to achieve these “net zero” goals by focusing significant time and effort on improving our environmental data reporting and accuracy, outlining a strategy to achieve our environmental impact goals, defining the relevant metrics to track our progress, and establishing a robust governance structure to help drive accountability.

ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider each of the risks described below, together with all of the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, before making an investment decision with respect to our securities. The risks described below are not the only risks that could adversely affect our business; other risks currently deemed immaterial or additional risks not currently known to us could also materially and adversely affect us. If any of the following or other risks develop into actual events, our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected and you may lose all or part of your investment. In certain instances, the exposure of our business to certain of these risks could be different or greater for the combined company after the consummation of the Altra Transaction, and the combined company may become subject to additional or different risks.

Risks Relating to Our Operations and Strategy

We depend on certain key suppliers, and any loss of those suppliers or their failure to meet commitments may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

We are dependent on a single or limited number of suppliers for some materials or components required in the manufacture of our products. If any of those suppliers fail to meet their commitments to us in terms of delivery or quality, including by suffering any disruptions at its facilities or in its supply, we may experience cost increases or supply shortages that could result in our inability to meet our customers' requirements, or could otherwise experience an interruption in our operations that could negatively impact our business and results of operations. If we encounter significant supply interruptions, our competitive position could be adversely affected, which may result in depressed sales and profitability.

The ~~ongoing~~ COVID-19 ~~pandemic has resulted~~outbreak and associated counteracting measures implemented by governments and businesses around the world, as well as subsequent accelerated recovery in global business activity, have increased uncertainty in the global business environment and led to supply chain constraints and disruption to the operations of certain of our suppliers and we cannot predict the duration or severity of current supply-chain issues, including increased input material costs and component shortages, delivery disruptions and ~~delays,~~shortages in global markets for commodities, logistics and labor, as well as input cost inflation. Additionally, the effects of climate change, including extreme weather events, long-term changes in temperature levels, water availability, supply costs impacted by increasing energy costs, or energy costs impacted by carbon prices or offsets may exacerbate supply chain constraints and disruption. Resulting supply chain constraints have required, and may continue to require, in certain instances, alternative delivery arrangements and increased costs and could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations.

Our dependence on, and the price of, raw materials may adversely affect our gross margins.

Many of the products we produce contain key materials such as steel, copper, aluminum and electronics. Market prices for those materials can be volatile due to changes in supply and demand, manufacturing and other costs, regulations and tariffs, economic conditions and other circumstances. We may not be able to offset any increase in commodity costs through pricing actions, productivity enhancements or other means, and increasing commodity costs may have an adverse impact on our gross margins, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Even if we are able to successfully respond to increased commodity costs through pricing actions, our competitive position could be adversely affected, which may result in depressed sales and profitability.

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted our business and could continue to have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operation, financial condition, liquidity, customers, suppliers, and the geographies in which we operate.

The COVID-19 ~~pandemic has significantly increased economic, demand~~outbreak and ~~operational uncertainty. We have global operations, customers~~associated counteracting measures implemented by governments and ~~suppliers, including in countries most impacted by COVID-19. Authorities~~businesses around the world, as well as subsequent accelerated recovery in global business activity, have ~~taken a variety of measures~~increased uncertainty in the global business environment and led to ~~slow the spread of COVID-19, including travel bans or restrictions, increased border controls or closures, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders~~supply chain disruptions and ~~business shutdowns~~shortages in global markets for commodities, logistics and such authorities may impose additional restrictions. We have also taken actions to protect our employees and to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, including embracing guidelines set by the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on social distancing, good hygiene, restrictions on employee travel and in-person meetings, and changes to employee work arrangements including remote work arrangements where feasible. The actions taken around the world to slow the spread of COVID-19 have also impacted our customers and suppliers, and future developments could cause further disruptions to us due to the interconnected nature of our business relationships.

labor, as well as input cost inflation. The impact of COVID-19 on the global economy and our customers, as well as recent volatility in commodity markets, has negatively impacted demand for our products and could continue to do so in the future. Its effects could also result in further disruptions to our manufacturing operations, including higher rates of employee absenteeism, and to our supply chain, which could continue to negatively impact our ability to meet customer demand. ~~Additionally,~~COVID-19 lockdowns in China during fiscal 2022 disrupted our Chinese manufacturing operations and negatively impacted demand for our products in the ~~potential deterioration~~region. Significant increases in COVID-19 infections in that geographic region may continue to disrupt our Chinese manufacturing operations, impact demand for our products, and ~~volatility of credit~~could also lead to additional supply chain disruptions and ~~financial markets could limit our ability to obtain external financing.~~commercial challenges. The extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact our business, results of operations, financial condition or liquidity is ~~highly~~ uncertain and will depend on future developments, including the spread, resurgence and duration of the virus, and potential further actions taken by governmental authorities ~~and how quickly economic conditions stabilize and recover~~.

We may incur costs and charges as a result of restructuring activities to reduce on-going costs such as facilities and operations consolidations ~~and workforce reductions~~ that ~~we expect will reduce on-going costs, and those restructuring activities also~~ may be disruptive to our business and may not result in anticipated cost savings.

We expect to review our overall manufacturing footprint, including potentially consolidating facilities and operations, in an effort to make our business more efficient. We expect to incur additional costs and restructuring charges in connection with such consolidations, divestitures, workforce reductions and other cost reduction measures that could adversely affect our future earnings and cash flows. Furthermore, such actions may be disruptive to our business. This may result in production inefficiencies, product quality issues, late product deliveries or lost orders as we begin production at consolidated facilities, which would adversely impact our sales levels, operating results and operating margins. In addition, we may not realize the cost savings that we expect to realize as a result of such actions.

These activities require substantial management time and attention and may divert management from other important work or result in a failure to meet operational targets. Divestitures may also give rise to obligations to buyers or other parties that could have a financial effect after the transaction is completed. Moreover, we could encounter changes to, or delays in executing, any restructuring or divestiture plans, any of which could cause disruption and additional unanticipated expense.

Our ability to establish, grow and maintain customer relationships depends in part on our ability to develop new products and product enhancements based on technological innovation, such as IoT, and marketplace acceptance of new and existing products, including products related to technology not yet adopted or utilized in certain geographic locations in which we do business.

The electric motor and power transmission industries in recent years have seen significant evolution and innovation, particularly with respect to increasing energy efficiency and control enhancements. Our ability to effectively compete in these industries depends in part on our ability to continue to develop new technologies and innovative products and product enhancements, including enhancements based on technological innovation such as IoT. Further, many large customers in these industries generally desire to purchase from companies that can offer a broad product range, which means we must continue to develop our expertise in order to design, manufacture and sell these products successfully. This requires that we make significant investments in engineering, manufacturing, customer service and support, research and development and intellectual property protection, and there can be no assurance that in the future we will have sufficient resources to continue to make such investments. If we are unable to meet the needs of our customers for innovative products or product variety, or if our products become technologically obsolete over time due to the development by our competitors of technological breakthroughs or otherwise, our revenues and results of operations may be adversely affected. In addition, we may incur significant costs and devote significant resources to the development of products that ultimately are not accepted in the marketplace, do not provide anticipated enhancements, or do not lead to significant revenue, which may adversely impact our results of operations.

Further, such new products and technologies may create additional exposure or risk. We cannot assure that we can adequately protect any of our own technological developments to produce a sustainable competitive advantage. Furthermore, we could be subject to business continuity risk in the event of an unexpected loss of a material facility or operation. We cannot ensure that we can adequately protect against such a loss.

In each of our Climate Solutions and Commercial Systems segments, we depend on revenues from several significant customers, and any loss, cancellation or reduction of, or delay in, purchases by these customers may have a material adverse effect on our business.

In each of our Climate Solutions and Commercial Systems segments, we depend on, and expect to continue to depend on, revenues from several significant customers, and any loss, cancellation or reduction of, or delay in, purchases by these customers may have a material adverse effect on our business.

We derive a significant portion of the revenues of our motor businesses from several key OEM customers. Our success depends on our continued ability to develop and manage relationships with these customers. We have ~~long standing~~longstanding relationships with these customers and we expect these customer relationships will continue for the foreseeable future. Our reliance on sales from customers makes our relationship with each of these customers important to our business. We cannot assure you that we will be able to retain these key customers. Some of our customers may in the future shift some or all of their purchases of products from us to our competitors or to other sources. The loss of one or more of our large customers, any reduction or delay in sales to these customers, our inability to develop relationships successfully with additional customers, or future price concessions that we may make could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

~~the future,~~We have a material amount of goodwill and other long-lived assets, including intangible assets, property plant and equipment and operating lease assets. We assess our ~~results of operations and financial condition in such years may be materially and adversely affected.~~

~~As of January 1, 2022, we had goodwill of $4,039.2 million. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair market value of net assets acquired in business combinations. We review~~ goodwill at least annually for ~~impairment and any excess in carrying value over the estimated fair value is charged to the results of operations.~~impairment.

Portions of our total sales come directly from customers in key markets and industries. A significant or prolonged decline or disruption in one of those markets or industries could result in lower capital expenditures by such customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Portions of our total sales are dependent directly upon the level of capital expenditures by customers in key markets and industries, such as HVAC, refrigeration, power generation, oil and gas, unit material handling, water heating and aerospace. A significant or prolonged decline or disruption in one of those markets or industries may result in some of such customers delaying, canceling or modifying projects, or may result in nonpayment of amounts that are owed to us. These effects could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

We sell certain products for high volume applications, and any failure of those products to perform as anticipated could result in significant liability and expenses that may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

We manufacture and sell a number of products for high volume applications, including electric motors used in pools and spas, residential and commercial heating, ventilation and air conditioning and refrigeration equipment. Any failure of those products to perform as anticipated could result in significant product liability, product recall or rework, or other costs. The costs of product recalls and reworks are not generally covered by insurance.

If we were to experience a product recall or rework in connection with products of high volume applications, our financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

One of our subsidiaries that we acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units manufactured and sold in high volumes by a third party. These ventilation units are subject to regulation by government agencies such as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”). The claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. Based on the current facts, we cannot assure you that these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our subsidiary's results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. We cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these claims, the nature or extent of any CPSC or other remedial actions, if any, that our subsidiary or we on their behalf may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field, or the costs that may be incurred, some of which could be significant. See Note 12 – Contingencies of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Our business may not generate cash flow from operations in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs, we could become increasingly vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry conditions and interest rate trends, and our ability to obtain future financing may be limited.

As of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022, we had approximately ~~$1.9~~$2.0 billion in aggregate debt outstanding under our various financing arrangements, approximately ~~$672.8~~$688.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately ~~$263.2~~$571.0 million in available borrowings under our current revolving credit facility. Since December 31, 2022, we have incurred a substantial amount of debt in connection with the Altra Transaction, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. We have incurred acquisition-related debt financing of approximately $4.7 billion and intend to incur $840.0 million in additional term loans under our Credit Agreement to fund the cash consideration for the Altra Transaction, refinance certain of our indebtedness and indebtedness of Altra and pay related fees and expenses. See Note 7 – Debt and Bank Credit Facilities of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Our ability to make required payments of principal and interest on our debt levels will depend on our future performance, which, to a certain extent, is subject to general economic, financial, competitive and other factors that are beyond our control. Our substantially increased indebtedness has the effect, among other things, of reducing our flexibility to changing business and economic conditions. We cannot assure you that our business will generate cash flow from operations or that future borrowings

will be available under our current credit facilities in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity ~~needs. In addition, our credit facilities contain financial and restrictive covenants that could limit our ability to, among other things, borrow additional funds~~needs on a timely basis or take advantage of business opportunities. Our failure to comply with such covenants could result in an event of default that, if not cured or waived, could result in the acceleration of all our indebtedness or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and debt service capability. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources.”at all. Our indebtedness may have important ~~consequences. For~~consequences, for example, it could:

•make it more challenging for us to obtain additional financing to fund our business strategy and acquisitions, debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital;

•increase our vulnerability to interest rate changes, including with respect to certain of our financing arrangements that bear interest at variable rates, and general adverse economic and industry conditions;

•require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to service our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow to finance acquisitions and to fund working capital, capital expenditures, manufacturing capacity expansion, business integration, research and development efforts and other general corporate activities;

•limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and our markets; and/or

•place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to our competitors that have less debt.

In addition, because our debt levels and debt service obligations have increased substantially in connection with the Altra Transaction, we will have less cash flow available for our business operations, product development, capital expenditures, and acquisitions, we could become increasingly vulnerable to general adverse economic and industry conditions and industry rate trends, and our ability to obtain future financing on favorable terms may be limited.

A portion of our indebtedness bears interest at variable rates that are linked to changing market interest rates. As a result, an increase in market interest rates would increase our interest expense and our debt service obligations on the variable rate indebtedness, and our net income and cash flows, including cash available for servicing our indebtedness, will correspondingly decrease. We utilize interest rate swaps that involve the exchange of floating for fixed rate interest payments to reduce interest rate volatility. However, we may not maintain interest rate swaps with respect to all of our variable rate indebtedness, and any swaps we enter into may not fully mitigate interest rate risk.

Further, the availability and terms of future financing may depend upon our ability to maintain or achieve certain credit ratings on our senior debt. The credit rating process is contingent upon our credit profile and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, including methodologies established and interpreted by third-party rating agencies. If we are unable to maintain or achieve certain credit ratings in the future, our interest expense could increase or our ability to obtain financing on favorable terms could be adversely affected.

Our credit facilities contain financial and restrictive covenants, which require us to maintain specified financial ratios and satisfy certain financial condition ~~tests, which~~tests. These covenants could limit our ability to, among other things, borrow additional funds or take advantage of business opportunities, and may require that we take action to reduce our debt or to act in a manner contrary to our business strategies. ~~If an~~An event of default under our ~~credit facility~~debt agreements, if not cured or ~~senior notes were to occur, the lenders~~waived, could ~~elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the applicable agreement, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable.~~

In addition, the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the interest rate benchmark used as a reference rate for certain borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility, is expected to be phased out by the end of calendar year 2023. Any disruptionresult in the ~~financial markets, interest rate increases, changes that may result from the implementation~~acceleration of ~~new benchmark rates that replace LIBOR, or increases to~~ our indebtedness ~~levels could negatively impact~~or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our ~~ability to access~~business, financial ~~markets~~condition, results of operations or ~~increase our borrowing costs.~~debt service capability. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources" for more information.

Sales of products incorporated into HVAC systems and other residential applications are seasonal and affected by the weather; mild or cooler weather could have an adverse effect on our operating performance.

Many of our motors are incorporated into HVAC systems and other residential applications that OEMs sell to end users. The number of installations of new and replacement HVAC systems or components and other residential applications is higher during the spring and summer seasons due to the increased use of air conditioning during warmer months. Mild or cooler weather conditions during the spring and summer season often result in end users deferring the purchase of new or replacement HVAC systems or components. As a result, prolonged periods of mild or cooler weather conditions in the spring or summer season in broad geographical areas could have a negative impact on the demand for our HVAC motors and, therefore, could have an adverse effect on our operating performance. In addition, due to variations in weather conditions from year to year, our operating performance in any single year may not be indicative of our performance in any future year.

Global climate change and related legal and regulatory developments could negatively affect our business.

The effects of climate change create financial risks to our business. For example, the effects of climate change could disrupt our operations by impacting the availability and the cost of materials needed for manufacturing, exacerbate existing risks to our supply chain and increase insurance and other operating costs. These factors may impact our decisions to construct new facilities or maintain existing facilities in areas most prone to physical climate risks. We could also face indirect financial risks

passed through the supply chain and disruptions that could result in increased prices for our products and the resources needed to produce them.

Increased public awareness and concern regarding global climate change has resulted in more regulations designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. These regulations are inconsistent, and are rapidly emerging and evolving. If our product portfolio does not align with these regulations, we may be required to make increased research and development and other capital expenditures to improve our product portfolio in order to meet new regulations and standards. Further, our customers and the markets we serve may impose emissions or other environmental standards through regulation, market-based emissions policies or consumer preference that we may not be able to timely meet due to the level of capital investment or technological advancement. While we are committed to continuous improvements to our product portfolio to meet and exceed anticipated regulations and preferences, there can be no assurance that our commitments will be successful, that our products will be accepted by the market, that proposed regulation or deregulation will not have a negative competitive impact, or that economic returns will reflect our investments in new product development. In addition, the regulatory uncertainty and complexity driven by emerging and evolving regulations could increase our compliance costs, which may impact our results of operations.

As of the date of this filing, we have made several public commitments regarding our intended reduction of carbon emissions, including commitments to achieve Scope 1 and Scope 2 carbon emission neutrality by 2032, and Scope 3 carbon emission neutrality by 2050, and the establishment of science-based targets to reduce carbon emissions from our operations. Although we intend to meet these commitments, we may be required to expend significant resources to do so, which could increase our operational costs. If we either are unable to meet these commitments, or progress toward our commitments more slowly than expected, then we could incur adverse publicity and reaction from investors, activist groups and other stakeholders, which could adversely impact the perception of our brands and our products by current and potential customers, as well as investors, which would in turn adversely impact our results of operations.

Our success is highly dependent on qualified and sufficient staffing. Our failure to attract or retain qualified personnel, including our senior management team, could lead to a loss of revenue or profitability.

Our success depends, in part, on the efforts and abilities of our senior management team and key associates and the contributions of talented associates in various operations and functions, such as engineering, finance, sales, marketing, manufacturing, etc. The skills, experience and industry contacts of our senior management team significantly benefit our operations and administration. The failure to attract or retain members of our senior management team and key talent could have a negative effect on our operating results.

Moreover, on September 9, 2021, President Biden issued an executive order requiring certain employers with U.S. government contracts to ensure that their U.S.-based employees, contractors and subcontractors that work on or in support of the U.S. government contracts are fully vaccinated. Shortly before the executive order was to take effect, an injunction precluding enforcement was entered on a nationwide basis. The executive order is currently tied up in litigation. It is currently not possible to predict with certainty the impact of the executive order given that it is not currently being enforced. If we are required to implement the requirements under the executive order, then it may result in attrition, including attrition of critically skilled labor, and difficulty securing future labor needs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Risks Related to Mergers, Acquisitions and Divestitures

We and Altra may be unable to satisfy the conditions or obtain the approvals required to complete the Altra Transaction.

The consummation of the Altra Transaction is subject to numerous conditions, including the receipt of certain regulatory approvals, and other closing conditions. Neither Altra nor we can make any assurances that the Altra Transaction will be consummated on the terms or timeline currently contemplated, or at all. Both Altra and we have and will continue to expend time and resources and incur expenses related to the Altra Transaction.

Governmental agencies may not approve the Altra Transaction or may impose conditions to the approval of the Altra Transaction or require changes to the terms of the Altra Transaction. Any such conditions or changes could have the effect of delaying completion of the Altra Transaction, imposing costs on or limiting the revenues of the combined company following the completion of the Altra Transaction, or otherwise reducing the anticipated benefits of the Altra Transaction. Certain conditions or changes might cause Altra or us to restructure or terminate the Altra Transaction and, under certain circumstances, we may be required to pay a termination fee of $200 million pursuant to the terms of the Altra Merger Agreement.

The pendency of the Altra Transaction could materially and adversely affect our and Altra's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In connection with the pending Altra Transaction, some of our or Altra's customers or suppliers may delay or defer decisions on continuing or expanding such business dealings, which could materially and adversely affect our revenues, earnings, cash flows and expenses, regardless of whether the Altra Transaction is consummated. Similarly, current and prospective employees of us or Altra may experience uncertainty about their future roles with our Company following the consummation of the Altra Transaction, which may materially and adversely affect each of our and Altra's ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel during the pendency of the Altra Transaction and which may materially and adversely divert attention from the daily

activities of our and Altra's existing employees. Any of these matters could materially and adversely affect our and Altra's business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our failure to successfully integrate Altra following the ~~Rexnord PMC business and Automation Solutions businesses and realize forecasted synergies from~~completion of the ~~Transactions~~Altra Transaction, or to integrate our past acquisitions and any future acquisitions into our business within ~~our~~ expected ~~timetable~~timetables could adversely affect our future results and the market price of our common ~~stock following the completion of the Transactions or any future acquisitions.~~

Altra Transaction.

If any of these events were to occur, our ability to maintain relationships with customers, suppliers and employees or our ability to achieve the anticipated benefits of the ~~Transactions~~Altra Transaction could be adversely affected, or could reduce our sales or earnings or otherwise adversely affect our business and financial results after the ~~Transactions~~Altra Transaction and, as a result, adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Apart from the ~~Transactions,~~Altra Transaction, as part of our growth strategy, we have made acquisitions, including our merger with the Rexnord PMC business, and our acquisition of the Arrowhead business, and expect to continue to make acquisitions. Our continued growth may depend on our ability to identify and acquire companies that complement or enhance our business on acceptable terms, but we may not be able to identify or complete future acquisitions. We may not be able to integrate successfully our recent acquisitions, including Rexnord PMC and Arrowhead, or any future acquisitions, operate these acquired companies profitably, or realize the potential benefits from these ~~acquisitions, including~~acquisitions.

The Company will incur significant costs related to the ~~expected restructuring of certain aspects of the Rexnord PMC~~Altra Transaction, and ~~Automation Solutions businesses.~~

Whether or not the Altra Transaction is ultimately consummated, incurring these costs may have an adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, cash flows and operating results in the periods in which they are incurred.

In addition, the Company has incurred, and expects to continue to incur, significant one-time costs related to the integration of the Rexnord PMC business and the achievement of synergies with respect to such business. Although we believe that our projections of these costs and the costs related to the Altra Transaction are based on reasonable assumptions, if such costs are

greater than anticipated, ~~the realization of these costs~~then they may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, cash flows and operating results in the periods in which they are incurred.

Businesses that we have acquired or that we may acquire in the future, including Altra, the Rexnord PMC business and ~~Automation Solutions businesses,~~the Arrowhead business, may have liabilities which are not known to us.

We have assumed liabilities of acquired businesses, including the Rexnord PMC and ~~Automation Solutions~~Arrowhead businesses, and may assume liabilities of businesses that we acquire in the ~~future.~~future, including Altra. There may be liabilities or risks that we fail, or are unable, to

discover, or that we underestimate, in the course of performing our due diligence investigations of acquired businesses. Additionally, businesses that we have acquired or may acquire in the future may have made previous acquisitions, and we will be subject to certain liabilities and risks relating to these prior acquisitions as well. We cannot assure you that our rights to indemnification contained in definitive acquisition agreements that we have entered or may enter into will be sufficient in amount, scope or duration to fully offset the possible liabilities associated with the business or property acquired. Any such liabilities, individually or in the aggregate, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. As we begin to operate acquired businesses, we may learn additional information about them that adversely affects us, such as unknown or contingent liabilities, issues relating to compliance with applicable laws or issues related to ongoing customer relationships or order demand.

The Reorganization and the Distributions could result in significant tax liability, including as a result of an error in the determination of Overlap Shareholders or subsequent acquisitions of stock of Zurn or us. Under certain circumstances, Land (our wholly owned subsidiary) may be obligated to indemnify Zurn for any such taxes imposed on Zurn.

In connection with our merger with the Rexnord ~~Transaction,~~PMC business, Zurn received a tax opinion from its tax counsel (the “Rexnord Tax Opinion”) that includes an opinion to the effect that the Reorganization ~~together with~~and the ~~distributions of Land common stock from Zurn to Zurn’s stockholders (the “Distributions”),~~Distributions, will qualify as tax-free to Zurn, Land and the Zurn stockholders, as applicable, for U.S. federal income tax purposes except, in the case of Zurn, to the extent Land’s payment to a subsidiary of Zurn under the terms of the Separation Agreement (the “Land Cash Payment”) exceeds RBS Global Inc.’s adjusted tax basis in Land common stock. The Rexnord Tax Opinion is based on, among other things, certain representations and assumptions as to factual matters and certain covenants made by us, Land and Zurn. Although we believe the representations, assumptions and covenants in the Rexnord Tax Opinion to be true, the failure of any such factual representation, assumption or covenant to be true, correct and complete in all material respects could adversely affect the validity of the opinion. The Rexnord Tax Opinion is not binding on the IRS or the courts, and it is possible that the IRS or the courts may not agree with the opinion. In addition, the Rexnord Tax Opinion is based on current law, and the conclusions in the opinion cannot be relied upon if current law changes with retroactive effect.

The Spin-Off will be taxable to Zurn pursuant to Section 355(e) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended if there is a 50% or greater change in ownership of either Zurn or Land, directly or indirectly, as part of a plan or series of related transactions that include the Spin-Off. For this purpose, any acquisitions of Land or Zurn stock or our stock within the period beginning two years before the Spin-Off and ending two years after the Spin-Off are presumed to be a part of such plan, although we and Zurn may be able to rebut that presumption. Zurn received a private letter ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) (the “IRS Ruling”) with respect to certain tax aspects of the Rexnord ~~Transaction,~~PMC transactions, including matters relating to the nature and extent of shareholders who may be counted for tax purposes as “Overlap Shareholders” (as such term is defined in the Rexnord PMC Merger Agreement) for purposes of determining the exchange ratio for the transaction in the Rexnord PMC Merger Agreement and the overall percentage change in the ownership of Land resulting from the ~~Merger.~~merger of our subsidiary with and into Land. The continuing validity of the IRS Ruling is subject to the accuracy of factual representations and assumptions made in the ruling request. Moreover, the IRS Ruling only describes the time, manner and methodology for measuring Overlap Shareholders and may be subject to varying interpretations.

The actual determination and calculation of Overlap Shareholders was made by us, Zurn and our respective advisors based on the IRS Ruling, but no assurance can be given that the IRS will agree with these determinations or calculations. If the IRS were to determine that the ~~Merger,~~merger of our subsidiary with and into Land, as a result of an error in the determination of Overlap Shareholders, or other acquisitions of Land, Zurn, or our stock, either before or after the Spin-Off, resulted in a 50% or greater change in ownership and were part of a plan or series of related transactions that included the Spin-Off, such determination could result in significant tax liability to Zurn. In certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations, under the Tax Matters Agreement, Land is required to indemnify Zurn for 100% of the taxes that result if the Distributions become taxable as a result of certain actions by us or Land and for 90% of the taxes that result as a result of a miscalculation of the Overlap Shareholders. If this occurs and Land is required to indemnify Zurn, this indemnification obligation could be substantial and could have a material adverse effect on us and Land, including with respect to our financial condition and results of operations given that we have guaranteed the indemnification obligations of Land.

Following consummation of our merger with the Rexnord ~~Transaction,~~PMC business, we and Land are each required to abide by potentially significant restrictions which could limit our ability to undertake certain corporate actions (such as the issuance of common stock or the undertaking of certain business combinations) that otherwise could be advantageous.

The Tax Matters Agreement we entered into in connection with the Rexnord Transaction imposes certain restrictions on us, Land and Zurn during the two-year period following the Spin-Off, subject to certain exceptions, with respect to actions that could cause the Reorganization and the Distributions to fail to qualify for their intended tax treatment. As a result of these

restrictions, our and Land’s ability to engage in certain transactions, such as the issuance or purchase of stock or certain business combinations, may be limited.

If we, Land or Zurn take any enumerated actions or omissions, or if certain events relating to us, Land or Zurn occur that would cause the Reorganization or the Distributions to become taxable, the party whose actions or omissions (or who the event relates to) generally will be required to bear the cost of any resulting tax liability of Zurn (but not its stockholders). If the Reorganization or the Distributions became taxable, Zurn would be expected to recognize a substantial amount of gain, which would result in a material amount of taxes. Any such taxes would be expected to be material to us and could cause our business, financial condition and operating results to suffer. These restrictions may reduce our ability to engage in certain business transactions that otherwise might be advantageous, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations, or financial condition.

~~Zurn may not be able to perform~~We face risks associated with our evaluation of strategic alternatives for the ~~services it is required to perform under the Transition Services Agreement.~~global motors and generators portion of our Industrial Systems operating segment.

Risks Relating to Our Global Footprint

We operate in the highly competitive global electric motors and controls, power generation and power transmission industries.

The global electric motors and controls, power generation and power transmission industries are highly competitive. We encounter a wide variety of domestic and international competitors due in part to the nature of the products we manufacture and the wide variety of applications and customers we serve. In order to compete effectively, we must retain relationships with major customers and establish relationships with new customers, including those in developing countries. Moreover, in certain applications, customers exercise significant power over business terms. It may be difficult in the short-term for us to obtain new sales to replace any decline in the sale of existing products that may be lost to competitors. Our failure to compete effectively may reduce our revenues, profitability and cash flow, and pricing pressures resulting from competition may adversely impact our profitability.

We have continued to see a trend with certain customers who are attempting to reduce the number of vendors from which they purchase product in order to reduce their costs and diversify their risk. As a result, we may lose market share to our competitors in some of the markets in which we compete.

In addition, some of our competitors are larger and have greater financial and other resources than we do. There can be no assurance that our products will be able to compete successfully with the products of these other companies.

We ~~may also choose to exit certain businesses, markets, or channels based on a variety of factors including our 80/20 initiatives.~~

We manufacture a significant portion of our products outside the ~~US,~~U.S., and political, societal or economic instability or public health crises may present additional risks to our business.

~~Approximately 24,000~~As of December 31, 2022, approximately 20,000 of our approximate ~~30,000~~26,000 total associates and 6169 of our principal manufacturing and warehouse facilities ~~are~~were located outside the U.S. International operations generally are subject to various risks, including political, societal and economic instability, local labor market conditions, public health crises, breakdowns in trade relations, the imposition of tariffs and other trade restrictions, lack of reliable legal systems, ownership restrictions, the impact of government regulations, the effects of income and withholding taxes, governmental expropriation or nationalization, and differences in business practices. We may incur increased costs and experience delays or disruptions in product deliveries and payments in connection with international manufacturing and sales that could cause loss of revenue.

Unfavorable changes in the political, regulatory and business climates in countries where we have operations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, including, for example, the uncertainty surrounding ~~the effect of the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union, commonly referred to as “Brexit,” and~~ trade relations between the U.S. and ~~China.~~China or the ongoing impacts of China's COVID-19 containment policies.

~~In addition,~~

Moreover, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine has negatively impacted the global economy and led to various economic sanctions being imposed by the U.S., United Kingdom, European Union, and other countries against Russia. While the impacts of the conflict have not been material on our operating results to date, it is not possible to predict the broader or longer-term consequences of this conflict. Continued escalation of geopolitical tensions related to the conflict could also result in the loss of property, supply chain disruptions, significant inflationary pressure on raw material prices and cost and supply of other resources (such as ~~described~~energy and natural gas), fluctuations in ~~more detail above, the continued global spread of COVID-19~~our customers’ buying patterns, credit and capital market disruption which could impact our ability to obtain financing, increase in interest rates and adverse foreign exchange impacts. These broader consequences could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Disruptions caused by labor disputes or organized labor activities could adversely affect our business or financial results.

We have a significant number of employees in Europe and other jurisdictions where trade union membership is common. Although we believe that our relations with our employees are strong, if our unionized workers were to engage in a strike, work stoppage or other slowdown in the future, we could experience a significant disruption of our operations, which could interfere with our ability to deliver products on a timely basis and could have other negative effects, such as decreased productivity and increased labor costs. In addition, if a greater percentage of our workforce becomes unionized as a result of legal or regulatory changes which may make union organizing easier, or otherwise, our costs could increase and our efficiency may be affected in a material adverse manner, negatively impacting our business and financial results. Further, many of our direct and indirect customers and their suppliers, and organizations responsible for shipping our products, have unionized workforces and their businesses may be impacted by strikes, work stoppages or slowdowns, any of which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Economic and Financial Risks

Commodity, currency and interest rate hedging activities may adversely impact our financial performance as a result of changes in global commodity prices, interest rates and currency rates.

We use derivative financial instruments in order to reduce the substantial effects of currency and commodity fluctuations and interest rate exposure on our cash flow and financial condition. These instruments may include foreign currency and commodity forward contracts, currency swap agreements and currency option contracts, as well as interest rate swap agreements. We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, such hedging arrangements. By utilizing hedging instruments, we may forgo benefits that might result from fluctuations in currency exchange, commodity and interest rates. We are also exposed to the risk that counterparties to hedging contracts will default on their obligations. Any default by such counterparties might have an adverse effect on us.

We may suffer losses as a result of foreign currency fluctuations.

The net assets, net earnings and cash flows from our foreign subsidiaries are based on the U.S. dollar equivalent of such amounts measured in the applicable functional currency.

These foreign operations have the potential to impact our financial position due to fluctuations in the local currency arising from the process of re-measuring the local functional currency in the U.S. ~~dollar.~~Dollars. Any increase in the value of the U.S. ~~dollar~~Dollar in relation to the value of the local currency, whether by means of market conditions or governmental actions such as currency devaluations, will adversely affect our revenues from our foreign operations when translated into U.S. ~~dollars.~~Dollars. Similarly, any decrease in the value of the U.S. ~~dollar~~Dollar in relation to the value of the local currency will increase our operating costs in foreign operations, to the extent such costs are payable in foreign currency, when translated into U.S. ~~dollars.~~Dollars.

Worldwide economic conditions may adversely affect our industry, business and results of operations.

General economic conditions and conditions in the global financial markets can affect our results of operations. Deterioration in the global economy could lead to higher unemployment, lower consumer spending and reduced investment by businesses, and could lead our customers to slow spending on our products or make it difficult for our customers, our vendors and us to accurately forecast and plan future business activities. Worsening economic conditions could also affect the financial viability of our suppliers, some of which could be considered key suppliers. If the commercial, industrial, residential HVAC, power generation and power transmission markets significantly deteriorate, our business, financial condition and results of operations will likely be materially and adversely affected. Some of the industries that we serve are highly cyclical, such as the aerospace, energy and industrial equipment industries. Additionally, our stock price could decrease if investors have concerns that our business, financial condition and results of operations will be negatively impacted by a worldwide economic downturn.

2325

We are subject to tax laws and regulations in many jurisdictions and the inability to successfully defend claims from taxing authorities related to our current and/or acquired businesses could adversely affect our operating results and financial position.

A significant amount of our revenue is generated from customers located outside of the U.S., and a substantial portion of our assets and associates are located outside of the U.S. which requires us to interpret the income tax laws and rulings in each of those taxing jurisdictions. Due to the subjectivity of tax laws between those jurisdictions as well as the subjectivity of factual interpretations, our estimates of income tax liabilities may differ from actual payments or assessments. Claims from taxing authorities related to these differences could have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial position.

Our required cash contributions to our pension plans may increase further and we could experience a change in the funded status of our pension plans and the amount recorded in our consolidated balance sheets related to such plans. Additionally, our pension costs could increase in future years.

The funded status of our defined benefit pension plans depends on such factors as asset returns, market interest rates, legislative changes and funding regulations. If the returns on the assets of any of our plans were to decline in future periods, if market interest rates were to decline, if the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation were to require additional contributions to any such plans as a result of acquisitions or if other actuarial assumptions were to be modified, our future required cash contributions and pension costs to such plans could increase. Any such increases could impact our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The need to make contributions to such plans may reduce the cash available to meet our other obligations, including our obligations under our borrowing arrangements or to meet the needs of our business.

Risks Relating to the Legal and Regulatory Environment

We are subject to changes in legislative, regulatory and legal developments involving income and other taxes.

We are subject to U.S. federal, state, and international income, payroll, property, sales and use, fuel, and other types of taxes. Changes in tax rates, enactment of new tax laws, revisions of tax regulations, and claims or litigation with taxing authorities, including claims or litigation related to our interpretation and application of tax laws and regulations, could result in substantially higher taxes, could have a negative impact on our ability to compete in the global marketplace, and could have a significant adverse effect on our results or operations, financial conditions and liquidity.

It is difficult to predict the timing and effect that future tax law changes could have on our earnings both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. The Biden administration has provided informal guidance on certain tax law changes that it would support, which includes, among other things, raising tax rates on both domestic and foreign income and imposing a new alternative minimum tax on book income. Such changes could cause us to experience an effective tax rate significantly different from previous periods or our current estimates. If our effective tax rate were to increase, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

We are subject to litigation, including product liability, asbestos and warranty claims that may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We are, from time to time, a party to litigation that arises in the normal course of our business operations, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, employment and other litigation matters. We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability, asbestos and warranty claims in the event that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. As described above, one of our subsidiaries that we acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units manufactured and sold in high volumes by a third party. In addition, certain subsidiaries of ours are co-defendants in various lawsuits in a number of U.S. jurisdictions alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos that was used in certain components of legacy Rexnord PMC business products. The uncertainties of litigation and the uncertainties related to insurance and indemnification coverage make it difficult to accurately predict the ultimate financial effect of these claims. If our insurance or indemnification coverage is not adequate to cover our potential financial exposure, our insurers or indemnitors dispute their obligations to provide coverage, or the actual number or value of claims differs materially from our existing estimates, we could incur material costs that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

While we maintain general liability and product liability insurance coverage in amounts that we believe are reasonable, we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain this insurance on acceptable terms or that this insurance will provide sufficient coverage against potential liabilities that may arise. Any product liability claim may also include the imposition of

punitive damages, the award of which, pursuant to certain state laws, may not be covered by insurance. Any claims brought

against us, with or without merit, may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations as a result of potential adverse outcomes, the expenses associated with defending such claims, the diversion of our management’s resources and time and the potential adverse effect to our business reputation. See Note 12 – Contingencies of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Infringement of our intellectual property by third parties may harm our competitive position, and we may incur significant costs associated with the protection and preservation of our intellectual property.

We own or otherwise have rights in a number of patents and trademarks relating to the products we manufacture, which have been obtained over a period of years, and we expect to actively pursue patents in connection with new product development and to acquire additional patents and trademarks through the acquisitions of other businesses. These patents and trademarks have been of value in the growth of our business and may continue to be of value in the future. Our inability to protect this intellectual property generally, or the illegal breach of some or a large group of our intellectual property rights, would have an adverse effect on our business. In addition, there can be no assurance that our intellectual property will not be challenged, invalidated, circumvented or designed-around, particularly in countries where intellectual property rights are not highly developed or protected. We have incurred in the past, and expect to incur in the future, significant costs associated with defending challenges to our intellectual property or enforcing our intellectual property rights, which could adversely impact our cash flow and results of operations.

Third parties may claim that we are infringing their intellectual property rights and we could incur significant costs and expenses or be prevented from selling certain products.

We may be subject to claims from third parties that our products or technologies infringe on their intellectual property rights or that we have misappropriated intellectual property rights. If we are involved in a dispute or litigation relating to infringement of third party intellectual property rights, we could incur significant costs in defending against those claims. Our intellectual property portfolio may not be useful in asserting a counterclaim, or negotiating a license, in response to a claim of infringement or misappropriation. In addition, as a result of such claims of infringement or misappropriation, we could lose our rights to technology that are important to our business, or be required to pay damages or license fees with respect to the infringed rights or be required to redesign our products at substantial cost, any of which could adversely impact our cash flows and results of operations.

We may incur costs or suffer reputational damage due to improper conduct of our associates, agents or business partners.

We are subject to a variety of domestic and foreign laws, rules and regulations relating to improper payments to government officials, bribery, anti-kickback and false claims rules, competition, export and import compliance, money laundering and data privacy. If our associates, agents or business partners engage in activities in violation of these laws, rules or regulations, we may be subject to civil or criminal fines or penalties or other sanctions, may incur costs associated with government investigations, or may suffer damage to our reputation.

Our operations are highly dependent on information technology infrastructure, and failures, attacks or breaches could significantly affect our business.

We depend heavily on our information technology infrastructure in order to achieve our business objectives. If we experience a problem that impairs this infrastructure, such as a computer virus, a problem with the functioning of an important IT application, or an intentional disruption of our IT systems by a third party, the resulting disruptions could impede our ability to record or process orders, manufacture and ship in a timely manner, or otherwise carry on our business in the ordinary course. Any such events could cause us to lose customers or revenue and could require us to incur significant expense to eliminate these problems and address related security concerns, including costs relating to investigation and remediation actions.

IT security threats via computer malware and other “cyber-attacks,” which are increasing in both frequency and sophistication, could also result in unauthorized disclosures of information, such as customer data, personally identifiable information or other confidential or proprietary material, and create financial liability, subject us to legal or regulatory sanctions, or damage our reputation. Moreover, because the techniques used to gain access to or sabotage systems often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate the methods necessary to defend against these types of attacks, and we cannot predict the extent, frequency or impact these attacks may have. While we maintain robust information security mechanisms and controls, the impact of a material IT event could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position, results of operations, financial condition and cash flow.

2527

We have substantially completed the implementation of two Enterprise Resource Planning (“ERP”) systems that each redesigned and deployed common information systems. WeAs part of our supply chain optimization and footprint repositioning strategies, we will continue to implement ~~the~~ ERP systems throughout the business. The process of implementation can be costly and can divert the attention of management from the day-to-day operations of the business. As we implement the ERP systems, some elements may not perform as expected. This could have an adverse effect on our business.

Changes in data privacy laws and our ability to comply with them could have a material adverse effect on us.

We collect and store data that is sensitive to us and our employees, customers, dealers and suppliers. A variety of state, national, foreign and international laws and regulations apply to the collection, use, retention, protection, security, disclosure, transfer and other processing of personal and other data. Many foreign data privacy regulations, including the General Data ProtectionRegulation (the “GDPR”) in the European Union, are more stringent than federal regulations in the United States. Within the United States, many states are considering adopting, or have already adopted privacy regulations, including, for example, the California Consumer Privacy Act. The applicability of these laws to our business has increased due to our focus on expanding e-commerce offerings. These laws and regulations are rapidly evolving and changing, and could have an adverse effect on our operations. Companies’ obligations and requirements under these laws and regulations are subject to uncertainty in how they may be interpreted by courts and governmental authorities. The costs of compliance with, and the other burdens imposed by, these and other laws or regulatory actions may increase our operational costs. In the case of non-compliance with these laws, including the GDPR, regulators have the authority to levy significant fines. In addition, if there is a breach of privacy, we may face litigation or regulatory sanctions, or be required to make notifications under data privacy regulations. The occurrence of any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

We may be adversely affected by environmental, health and safety laws and regulations.

We are subject to various laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment and human health and safety and expect incur capital and other expenditures to comply with these regulations. Failure to comply with any environmental regulations, including more stringent environmental laws that may be imposed in the future, could subject us to future liabilities, fines or penalties or the suspension of production. In addition, if environmental and human health and safety laws and regulations are repealed, made less burdensome or implemented at a later date, demand for our products designed to comply with such regulations may be unfavorably impacted.

General Risks

Our operations can be negatively impacted by natural disasters, terrorism, acts of war, international conflict, political and governmental actions which could harm our business.

Natural disasters, acts or threats of war or terrorism, international conflicts, and the actions taken by the USU.S. and other governments in response to such events could cause damage or disrupt our business operations, our suppliers, or our customers, and could create political or economic instability, any of which could have an adverse effect on our business. Although it is not possible to predict such events or their consequences, these events could decrease demand for our products, could make it difficult or impossible for us to deliver products, or could disrupt our supply chain. We may also be negatively impacted by actions by the U.S. or foreign governments which could disrupt manufacturing and commercial operations, including policy changes affecting taxation, trade, immigration, currency devaluation, tariffs, customs, border actions and the like, including, for example, ~~the effect of the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union, commonly referred to as “Brexit,” and~~ trade relations between the U.S. and ~~China.~~China, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, or the ongoing impacts of China's COVID-19 containment policies.

Our stock may be subject to significant fluctuations and volatility.

The market price of shares of our common stock may be volatile. Among the factors that could affect our common stock price are those discussed above under “Risk Factors” as well as:

•domestic and international economic and political factors unrelated to our performance;

•quarterly fluctuation in our operating income and earnings per share results;

•decline in demand for our products;

•significant strategic actions by our competitors, including new product introductions or technological advances;

•fluctuations in interest rates;

•cost increases in energy, raw materials, intermediate components or materials, or labor; and

•changes in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports by analysts.

In addition, stock markets may experience extreme volatility that may be unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

A subsidiary that we acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units manufactured and sold in high volumes by a third party. These ventilation units are subject to product safety requirements and other potential regulation of their performance by government agencies such as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”). The claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. We have recorded an estimated liability for incurred claims. Based on the current facts, we cannot assure that these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our subsidiary's financial condition. Our subsidiary cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these claims, the nature or extent of any CPSC or other remedial actions, if any, that our subsidiary may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field, or the costs that may be incurred, some of which could be significant.

As a result of our acquisition of the Rexnord PMC business, we are entitled to indemnification from third parties who are parties to agreements with the Rexnord PMC business against certain contingent liabilities of the Rexnord PMC business, including certain pre-closing environmental liabilities.

We believe that, pursuant to the transaction documents related to the Rexnord PMC business’ acquisition of the Stearns business from Invensys plc (“Invensys”), Invensys (now known as Schneider Electric) is obligated to defend and indemnify us with respect to the matters described below relating to the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site and to various asbestos claims. The indemnity obligations relating to the matters described below are subject, together with indemnity obligations relating to other matters, to an overall dollar cap equal to the purchase price, which is an amount in excess of ~~$900~~$900.0 million. In the event that we are unable to recover from Invensys with respect to the matters below, we may be entitled to indemnification from Zurn, subject to certain limitations. The following paragraphs summarize the most significant actions and proceedings:

•In 2002, our subsidiary, Rexnord Industries, LLC (“Rexnord Industries”), was named as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”), together with at least ten other companies, at the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site, Downers Grove, DuPage County, Illinois (the “Site”), by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”), and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“IEPA”). Rexnord Industries’ Downers Grove property is situated within the Ellsworth Industrial Complex. The USEPA and IEPA allege there have been one or more releases or threatened releases of chlorinated solvents and other hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants at the Site, allegedly including but not limited to a release or threatened release on or from Rexnord Industries’ property. The relief sought by the USEPA and IEPA includes further investigation and potential remediation of the Site and reimbursement of USEPA’s past costs. In early 2020, Rexnord Industries entered into an administrative order with the USEPA to do remediation work on its Downers Grove property. Rexnord Industries’ allocated share of past and future costs related to the Site, including for investigation and/or remediation, could be significant. All previously pending property damage and personal injury lawsuits against Rexnord Industries related to the Site have been settled or dismissed. Pursuant to its indemnity obligation, Invensys continues to defend Rexnord Industries in known matters related to the Site, including the costs of the remediation work pursuant to the 2020 administrative order, and has paid 100% of the costs to date. This indemnification right would not protect Rexnord Industries against liabilities related to environmental conditions that were unknown to Invensys at the time of the acquisition of the Stearns business from Invensys.

•Multiple lawsuits (with approximately ~~300~~350 claimants) are pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain brakes and clutches previously manufactured by the Rexnord PMC business’ Stearns brand of brakes and clutches and/or its predecessor owners. Invensys and FMC, prior owners of the Stearns business, have paid 100% of the costs to date related to the Stearns lawsuits. Similarly, the Rexnord PMC business’ Prager subsidiary is the subject of claims by multiple claimants alleging personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in a product allegedly manufactured by Prager. However, all these claims are currently on the Texas Multi-district Litigation inactive docket, and we do not believe that they will become active in the future. To date, the Rexnord PMC business’ insurance providers have paid 100% of the costs related to the Prager asbestos matters. We believe that the combination of our insurance coverage and the Invensys indemnity obligations will cover any future costs of these matters.

In connection with our acquisition of the Rexnord PMC business, transaction documents related to the Rexnord PMC business’ acquisition of The Falk Corporation from Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation were assigned to Rexnord Industries, and provide Rexnord Industries with indemnification against certain products-related asbestos exposure liabilities. We believe that, pursuant to such indemnity obligations, Hamilton Sundstrand is obligated to defend and indemnify Rexnord Industries with respect to asbestos claims that may be significant, and that, with respect to these claims, such indemnity obligations are not subject to any

2932

time or dollar limitations. The following paragraph summarizes the most significant actions and proceedings for which Hamilton Sundstrand has accepted responsibility:

•Rexnord Industries is a defendant in multiple lawsuits pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain clutches and drives previously manufactured by The Falk Corporation. The ultimate outcome of these lawsuits cannot presently be determined. Hamilton Sundstrand is defending Rexnord Industries in these lawsuits pursuant to its indemnity obligations and has paid 100% of the costs to date.

In addition to the matters described above, we are from time to time, party to litigation and other legal or regulatory proceedings that arise in the normal course of our business operations and the outcomes of which are subject to significant uncertainty, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, intellectual property, employment and other litigation matters. Our products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject us to claims that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. Many of these matters will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Our management conducts regular reviews, including updates from legal counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise in judgment. We accrue for exposures in amounts that we believe are adequate, and we do not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit individually or collectively will have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

~~We operate on~~(Dollars In Millions Except Per Share Data, Unless Otherwise Noted)

Effective for fiscal year 2022, we approved a change in the fiscal year end from a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31. We refer to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 as “fiscal 2022", the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022 as “fiscal 2021", and the fiscal year ended January 2, 2021 as “fiscal ~~2020" and the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019 as “fiscal 2019"~~2021".

Overview

General

Regal Rexnord Corporation (NYSE: RRX) (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is a global leader in the engineering and manufacturing of industrial powertrain solutions, power transmission components, electrical motors and electronic controls, air moving products and specialty electrical components and systems, serving customers around the world. Through longstanding technology leadership and an intentional focus on producing more energy-efficient products and systems, we help create a better tomorrow – for our customers and for the planet.

We are headquartered in Beloit, Wisconsin and have manufacturing, sales and service facilities worldwide. As of the end of fiscal ~~2021,~~2022, the Company, including its subsidiaries, employed approximately ~~30,000~~26,000 people in its global manufacturing, sales, and service facilities and corporate offices. In fiscal ~~2021,~~2022, we reported annual net sales of ~~$3.8~~$5.2 billion compared to ~~$2.9~~$3.8 billion in fiscal ~~2020.~~2021.

Our company is comprised of four operating segments: Commercial Systems, Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Motion Control Solutions. Our new Motion Control Solutions operating segment consists of our legacy Power Transmission Solutions operating segment, the Rexnord Process & Motion Control business (the “Rexnord PMC business”), which we acquired on October 4, 2021, and Arrowhead Systems, which we acquired on November 23, 2021. We now refer to Arrowhead Systems as our Automation Solutions business.

A description of our four operating segments is as follows:

•Commercial Systems segment designs and produces fractional to approximately 5 horsepower AC and DC motors, electronic variable speed controls, fans, and blowers for commercial applications. These products serve markets including commercial building ventilation and HVAC, pool and spa, irrigation, dewatering, agriculture, and general commercial equipment.

•Industrial Systems segment designs and produces integral motors, automatic transfer switches, alternators and switchgear for industrial applications, along with aftermarket parts and kits to support such products. These products serve markets including agriculture, marine, mining, oil and gas, food and beverage, data centers, healthcare, prime and standby power, and general industrial equipment.

•Climate Solutions segment designs and produces small motors, electronic variable speed controls and air moving solutions serving markets including residential and light commercial HVAC, water heaters and commercial refrigeration.

•Motion Control Solutions segment designs, produces and services mounted and unmounted bearings, conveyor products, conveying automation solutions, couplings, mechanical power transmission drives and components, gearboxes and gear motors, aerospace components, special components products and industrial powertrain components and solutions serving a broad range of markets including food and beverage, bulk handling, eCommerce/warehouse distribution, energy, aerospace and general industrial.

As previously disclosed, we are considering a full range of strategic alternatives for the global motors and generators portion of our Industrial Systems operating segment, which constitutes the majority of sales in this segment. Our ongoing strategic review may or may not lead to a decision to divest this business.

Components of Profit and Loss

Net Sales. We sell our products to a variety of manufacturers, distributors and end users. Our customers consist of a large cross-section of businesses, ranging from Fortune 100 companies to small businesses. A number of our products are sold to OEMs, who incorporate our products, such as electric motors, into products they manufacture, and many of our products are built to the requirements of our customers. The majority of our sales are derived from direct sales to customers by sales personnel employed by the Company, however, a significant portion of our sales are derived from sales made by manufacturer’s

representatives, who are paid exclusively on commission. Our product sales are made via purchase order, long-term contract, and, in some instances, one-time purchases. Many of our products have broad customer bases, with the levels of concentration of revenues varying from business unit to business unit.

Our level of net sales for any given period is dependent upon a number of factors, including (i) the demand for our products; (ii) the strength of the economy generally and the end markets in which we compete; (iii) our customers’ perceptions of our product quality at any given time; (iv) our ability to timely meet customer demands; (v) the selling price of our products; and (vi) the weather. As a result, our total revenue has tended to experience quarterly variations and our total revenue for any particular quarter may not be indicative of future results.

We use the term “organic sales" to refer to sales from existing operations excluding (i) sales from acquired businesses recorded prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition (“Acquisition Sales”), (ii) less the amount of sales attributable to any businesses divested/to be exited ("Business To Be Exited"), and (iii) the impact of foreign currency translation. The impact of foreign currency translation is determined by translating the respective period’s organic sales using the same currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior year periods. We use the term “organic sales growth” to refer to the increase in our sales between periods that is attributable to organic sales. We use the term “acquisition growth” to refer to the increase in our sales between periods that is attributable to Acquisition Sales. Organic sales, organic sales growth and acquisition growth are non-GAAP measures. See reconciliation of these measures to GAAP net sales in Non-GAAP Measures below.

Gross Profit. Our gross profit is impacted by our levels of net sales and cost of sales. Our cost of sales consists of costs for, among other things (i) raw materials, including copper, steel and aluminum; (ii) components such as castings, bars, tools, bearings and electronics; (iii) wages and related personnel expenses for fabrication, assembly and logistics personnel; (iv) manufacturing facilities, including depreciation on our manufacturing facilities and equipment, insurance and utilities; and (v) shipping. The majority of our cost of sales consists of raw materials and components. The price we pay for commodities and components can be subject to commodity price fluctuations. We attempt to mitigate portions of the commodity price fluctuations through fixed-price agreements with suppliers and our hedging strategies. When we experience commodity price increases, we have tended to announce price increases to our customers who purchase via purchase order, with such increases generally taking effect a period of time after the public announcements. For those sales we make under long-term arrangements, we tend to include material price formulas that specify quarterly or semi-annual price adjustments based on a variety of factors, including commodity prices.

Outside of general economic cyclicality, our business units experience different levels of variation in sales from quarter to quarter based on factors specific to each business. For example, a portion of our Climate Solutions segment manufactures products that are used in air conditioning applications. As a result, our sales for that business tend to be lower in the first and fourth quarters and higher in the second and third quarters. In contrast, our Commercial Systems segment, Industrial Systems segment and Motion Control Solutions segment have a broad customer base and a variety of applications, thereby helping to mitigate large quarter-to-quarter fluctuations outside of general economic conditions.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses consist primarily of (i) general and administrative expenses; (ii) sales and marketing expenses; (iii) general engineering and research and development expenses; and (iv) handling costs incurred in conjunction with distribution activities. Personnel related costs are our largest operating expense.

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs for (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel expenses related to our executive, finance, human resource, information technology, legal and operations functions; (ii) occupancy expenses; (iii) technology related costs; (iv) depreciation and amortization; and (v) corporate-related travel. The majority of our general and administrative costs are for salaries and related personnel expenses. These costs can vary by business given the location of our different manufacturing operations.

Our sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of costs for (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel expenses related to our sales and marketing function; (ii) internal and external sales commissions and bonuses; (iii) travel, lodging and other out-of-pocket expenses associated with our selling efforts; and (iv) other related overhead.

Our general engineering and research and development expenses consist primarily of costs for (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel expenses; (ii) the design and development of new energy efficiency products and enhancements; (iii) quality assurance and testing; and (iv) other related overhead. Our research and development efforts tend to be targeted toward developing new products that would allow us to maintain or gain additional market share, whether in new or existing applications. In particular, a large driver of our research and development efforts is energy efficiency, which generally means using less electrical power to produce more mechanical power.

Goodwill & Other Asset Impairments.In the fourth quarter of 2021, we recorded goodwill impairment of $33.0 million in our global industrial motors reporting unit. During fiscal 2021, we recognized $5.6 million of asset impairments related to the transfer of assets to held for sale.

During fiscal 2020, we recorded goodwill impairment of $10.5 million in our global industrial motors reporting unit. During fiscal 2020, we recognized $5.3 million of asset impairments related to the transfer of assets to held for sale.

In the first quarter of 2019, we transferred assets to held for sale which resulted in the recognition of $5.1 million of fixed asset impairments and $4.9 million of customer relationships intangible asset impairments.

COVID-19 Pandemic and Other Macroeconomic Pressures

The COVID-19 ~~evolved during 2020 into a global pandemic, resulting in a severe global health crisis that drove a dramatic slowdown~~outbreak and associated counteracting measures implemented by governments and businesses around the world, as well as subsequent accelerated recovery in global ~~economic~~business activity, have increased uncertainty in the global business environment and ~~social activity. As~~led to supply chain disruptions and shortages in global markets for commodities, logistics and labor, as well as input cost inflation. Currently our expectation is that the impact of cost inflation, including labor, energy, freight and logistics costs, as well as supplier component input availability will continue throughout 2023. COVID-19 ~~pandemic continues, health risks remain.~~lockdowns in China during fiscal 2022 disrupted our Chinese manufacturing operations and negatively impacted demand for our products in the region. Significant increases in COVID-19 infections in that geographic region may continue to disrupt our Chinese manufacturing operations, impact demand for our products, and could also lead to additional supply chain disruptions and commercial challenges.

InThe public health situation, continued global response measures and corresponding impacts on various markets remain fluid and uncertain and may lead to sudden changes in trajectory and outlook. The Company will continue to proactively respond to the ~~face of this global crisis,~~situation and may take further actions that alter our ~~first priority has been the health and safety of our associates. In response,~~business activity as may be required by governmental authorities, or that we implemented a host of measures to help our associates stay safe, measures that have been enhanced and refined as impacts from COVID-19 evolved, and as our knowledge about how to enhance their effectiveness improved.

~~Factors deriving from the COVID-19 response that have or may negatively impact sales and operating profit~~determine are in the future include, but are not limited to: limitations on the ability of our suppliers to manufacture, or procure from manufacturers, components and raw materials used in our products, or to meet delivery requirements and commitments; limitations on the abilitybest interests of our employees to perform their work due to illness caused by the pandemic or local, state, or federal orders requiring employees to remain at home; inconsistent criteria in certain international jurisdictions for establishing the essentiality of our business; limitations on the ability of carriers to deliver our products to customers; limitations on the ability of our customers to conduct their business and ~~purchase our products~~operations.

Altra, Rexnord and ~~services; reductions in demands of our customers; and limitations on the ability of our customers to pay us on a timely basis.~~Arrowhead Transactions

Altra Transaction

~~We continue~~. On October 26, 2022, we entered into the Altra Merger Agreement with Altra and Merger Sub to ~~monitor~~acquire all of the ~~pandemic~~issued and ~~make adjustments~~outstanding common stock of Altra for $62.00 per common share, or a total preliminary purchase price of $4.95 billion. Pursuant to the ~~business~~terms of the Altra Merger Agreement, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of specified conditions, Merger Sub will merge with and into Altra, with Altra surviving the transaction as ~~necessary~~our wholly owned subsidiary.

~~Rexnord~~In connection with the Altra Transaction, we entered into certain financing arrangements, which are described below under “Liquidity and ~~Automation Solutions Transactions~~Capital Resources”.

Rexnord Transaction. On October 4, 2021, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 15, 2021, ~~(the “Merger Agreement”), the Company~~we completed ~~its~~our combination with the Rexnord PMC business of Zurn Elkay Water Solutions Corporation (formerly known as Rexnord Corporation) ~~(“Zurn”)~~ in a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the “Rexnord Transaction”). Pursuant to the Rexnord Transaction, (1) Zurn transferred to its then-subsidiary Land Newco, Inc. (“Land”) substantially all of the assets, and Land assumed substantially all of the liabilities, of the Rexnord PMC business (the “Reorganization”), (2) after which, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Land (“Land common stock”) held by a subsidiary of Zurn were distributed in a series of distributions to Zurn’s stockholders (the distributions, and the final distribution of Land common stock from Zurn to Zurn’s stockholders, which was made pro rata for no consideration, the “Spin-Off”) and (3) immediately after the Spin-Off, a subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) merged with and into Land (the “Merger”) and all shares of Land common stock (other than those held by Zurn, Land, the Company, Merger Sub or their respective subsidiaries) were converted into the right to receive 0.22296103 shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Company common stock”), as calculated in the Merger Agreement. When the Merger was completed, Land which held the Rexnord PMC business, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Pursuant to the Merger, we issued 27,055,945 shares of common stock to holders of Land common stock, which represented approximately 39.9% of the 67,756,732 outstanding shares of Company common stock immediately following the completion of the Merger.

~~In addition,~~Our shareholders of record as of October 1, 2021 received a special dividend of $6.99 per share (or approximately $284.4 million in aggregate) ~~pursuant to a special dividend~~ in connection with the Rexnord Transaction. The Rexnord PMC business forms a part of our Motion Control Solutions segment, and its financials have been included in results for that segment from the date of acquisition. See Item I - Business and Note 4 – Acquisitions and Divestitures of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Rexnord Transaction.

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, we ~~have~~ entered into certain financing arrangements, which are described below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

Arrowhead Transaction. On November 23, 2021, we acquired Arrowhead ~~Systems, LLC, which we now refer to as our Automation Solutions business,~~ for $315.6 million in cash, net of $1.1 million of cash ~~acquired (the "Automation Solutions Transaction"). Our Automation Solutions business~~acquired. Arrowhead is a global leader in providing industrial process automation solutions, including conveyors and (de)palletizers to the food & beverage, aluminum can, and consumer staples end markets, among others. ~~Our~~Arrowhead is now a part of the Automation Solutions business ~~is a division~~unit of our Motion Control Solutions segment, and its financials have been included in results for that segment from the date of acquisition.

Change in Fiscal Year End

At a meeting of the ~~Company's~~ Board of Directors of Regal Rexnord Corporation on October 26, 2021, the Board approved a change in the fiscal year end from a 52-53 week year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31 to a calendar year ending on December 31, effective beginning with fiscal year 2022. We ~~expect to make~~made the fiscal year change on a prospective basis and ~~will~~did not adjust operating results for prior periods. The change to our fiscal year will not impact our results for the year ended January 1, 2022. However, the change will impact the prior year comparability of each of the fiscal quarters and the annual period in 2022 and in future filings. We believe this change will provide numerous benefits, including aligning ~~its~~our reporting periods to be more consistent with peer companies. While this change impacts the comparability of each of the periods presented, the impact is not material.

Change in Accounting Principle

As of January 2, 2022, we changed our methodology for valuing certain inventories to the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") cost method from the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") cost method. The effects of this change have been retrospectively applied to all periods presented. See Note 3 – Accounting Policies of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Outlook.

In fiscal ~~2022,~~2023, we ~~are forecasting mid-single digit~~expect organic revenue to ~~high-single digit sales growth. We expect to see positive impact from our transactions and new products.~~be slightly down at the mid-point of its range. In fiscal ~~2022,~~2023, we expect diluted earnings per share to be ~~$6.95~~$5.64 to ~~$7.55.~~$6.44. Our fiscal ~~2022~~2023 diluted earnings per share guidance is based on an effective tax rate of ~~23%~~21.5%. Our outlook for fiscal 2023 includes financing costs and net interest expense on the recently issued Senior Notes, but excludes other financial impacts from the Altra Transaction. See Note 7 – Debt and Bank Credit Facilities of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the Senior Notes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our principal source of liquidity is cash flow provided by operating activities. In addition to operating income, other significant factors affecting our cash flows include working capital levels, capital expenditures, dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions, and divestitures, availability of debt financing, and the ability to attract long-term capital at acceptable terms.

Cash flow provided by operating activities was $436.2 million for fiscal 2022, a $78.5 million increase from fiscal 2021. The increase was primarily the result of the Rexnord Transaction partially offset by increased working capital.

Cash flow provided by operating activities was $357.7 million for fiscal 2021, a $77.7 million decrease from fiscal 2020. The decrease was primarily the result of increased working capital.

~~Cash flow provided by operating activities was $435.4 million for fiscal 2020, a $26.9 million increase from fiscal 2019. The increase was primarily the result of a reduction in working capital.~~

Our working capital was ~~$1,627.5~~$1,998.3 million and ~~$1,029.3~~$1,713.3 million as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, ~~and January 2, 2021,~~ respectively. As of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 and January ~~2, 2021,~~1, 2022, our current ratio (which is the ratio of our current assets to current liabilities) was ~~2.5:~~3.0:1 and ~~2.3:~~2.6:1, respectively. We intend to use operating cash flow to meet our current debt repayment obligations.

Cash flow used in investing activities was $113.3 million for fiscal 2022, compared to $175.7 million in fiscal 2021. The change was driven primarily by the acquisition of our Arrowhead business in fiscal 2021. Capital expenditures were $83.8 million in fiscal 2022, compared to $54.5 million in fiscal 2021. The increase was primarily driven by the Rexnord Transaction.

Cash flow used in investing activities was $175.7 million for fiscal 2021, compared to $37.0 million in fiscal 2020. The change was driven primarily by the acquisition of our ~~Automation Solutions~~Arrowhead business in fiscal 2021 partially offset by lower divestiture proceeds. Capital expenditures were $54.5 million in fiscal 2021, compared to $47.5 million in fiscal ~~2021.~~

Cash flow provided by investing activities was $37.0 million for fiscal 2020, compared to $74.3 million used in fiscal 2019. The change was driven primarily by the divestiture proceeds received in fiscal 2019 partially offset by lower capital expenditures. Capital expenditures were $47.5 million in fiscal 2020, compared to $92.4 million in fiscal 2019.2020.

In fiscal ~~2022,~~2023, we anticipate capital spending for property, plant and equipment to be approximately ~~$110.0~~$120.0 million. We believe that our present manufacturing facilities will be sufficient to provide adequate capacity for our operations in fiscal ~~2022.~~2023. We anticipate funding fiscal ~~2022~~2023 capital spending with operating cash flows. These estimates do not take into account any capital expenditures associated with Altra and its properties.

Cash flow used in financing activities was $274.2 million for fiscal 2022, compared to $117.6 million in fiscal 2021. Net debt repayments totaled $106.5 million in fiscal 2022, compared to net debt repayments of $287.1 million in fiscal 2021. We also repurchased $239.2 million of our common stock during fiscal 2022 compared to $25.8 million in fiscal 2021. We paid $90.9 million in dividends to shareholders in fiscal 2022 compared to $335.6 million in fiscal 2021. The decrease was primarily driven by the special dividend of $284.4 million that was issued to shareholders in connection with the Rexnord Transaction in fiscal 2021. In fiscal 2022, we paid distributions of $6.2 million to noncontrolling interests compared to $4.5 million in fiscal 2021. We also paid $40.6 million of deferred financing fees during fiscal 2022.

As of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022, ~~$671.4~~$681.6 million of our cash was held by foreign subsidiaries and could be used in our domestic operations if necessary. We anticipate being able to support our short-term liquidity and operating needs largely through cash generated from operations. We regularly assess our cash needs and the available sources to fund these needs which includes repatriation of foreign earnings which may be subject to withholding taxes. Under current law, we do not expect restrictions or taxes on repatriation of cash held outside of the United States to have a material effect on our overall liquidity, financial condition or the results of operations for the foreseeable future. As of the date of this filing, we have repatriated approximately $310 million of foreign cash in fiscal 2023 to support the repayment of debt. We are continuing to evaluate opportunities to repatriate additional foreign cash in fiscal 2023.

We will, from time to time, maintain excess cash balances which may be used to (i) fund operations, (ii) repay outstanding debt, (iii) fund acquisitions, (iv) pay dividends, (v) make investments in new product development programs, (vi) repurchase our common stock, or (vii) fund other corporate objectives.

Credit Agreement

On March ~~17, 2021,~~28, 2022, we entered into ~~an amendment (the "First Amendment") with our lenders to the~~a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ~~dated August 27, 2018~~ (the “Credit Agreement”) ~~with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.~~, ~~as Administrative Agent~~which was subsequently amended on November 17, 2022 (the "First Amendment") and ~~the lenders named therein. The First Amendment amended the Credit Agreement to,~~November 30, 2022 (the "Assumption Agreement"), which in combination provide for, among other things, (i) permit the consummation of the Rexnord Transaction, (ii) permit the incurrence of indebtedness to finance the special dividend that was paid in connection with the Rexnord Transaction (the "Special Dividend"), and, (iii) provide an increase of $250.0 million in the aggregate principal amount of the revolving commitments under the Credit Agreement. The First Amendment is subject to customary and market provisions. In connection with the closing of the Rexnord Transaction, we drew upon the Credit Agreement to finance the $284.4 million payment of the Special Dividend.things:

~~Prior to the First Amendment, the Credit Agreement provided for a (i) 5-year~~i.an unsecured term loan facility in the initial principal amount of ~~$900.0~~up to $550.0 million, maturing on March 28, 2027 (the ~~“Term Facility”~~"Term Facility") ~~and (ii) a 5-year~~, which will be upsized by $840.0 million upon consummation of the Altra Transaction;

ii.an unsecured ~~multicurrency revolving~~term loan facility in ~~an aggregate~~the initial principal amount of ~~$500.0~~$486.8 million, ~~(increased as~~under which Land remains the sole borrower, maturing on March 28, 2027 (the "Land Term Facility"); and

As of December 31, 2022, we ~~exercised an option to expand the size~~had $536.3 million of ~~the Multicurrency Revolving Facility commitments under the Credit Agreement by $250.0 million. After the exercise the Multicurrency Revolving Facility commitment totals $1.0 billion.~~

The Term Facility under the Credit Agreement was drawn in full on August 27, 2018 with the proceeds settling the amounts owed under prior borrowings. The Term Facility requires quarterly amortization at a rate starting at 5.0% per annum, increasing to 7.5% per annum after three years and further increasing to 10.0% per annum for the last year of the Term Facility, unless previously prepaid. Per the terms of the agreement, prepayments can be made without penalty and be applied to the next payment due. After the prepayment is considered, the next payment in the amortization schedule is not due within one year and therefore no current maturities of debt will be recognized for this agreement. The weighted average interest rate on the Term Facility was 1.2% and 2.0% for the fiscal years ended January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, respectively. The Credit Agreement requires us to prepay the loansborrowings under the Term Facility ~~with 100%~~and $486.8 million of ~~the net cash proceeds received from specified asset sales and borrowed money indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions. We repaid $50.0 million and $50.0 million~~borrowings under the Land Term ~~Facility in fiscal 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Private Placement Notes

On April 7, 2022, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement for the issuance and sale of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.90% notes due April 7, 2032 (the "Private Placement Notes"), which was ~~$163.6~~subsequently amended on December 21, 2022 to, among other things, (i) permit the consummation of the Altra Transaction, and (ii) add a maintenance fee of 2.50% per annum on the unpaid principal amount of the Private Placement Notes upon consummation of the Altra Transaction. Following the issuance of the Senior Notes discussed below, on January 27, 2023, a portion of the proceeds from that transaction was used to repay the Private Placement Notes in full with no make-whole payments.

Bridge Facility

In connection with the Altra Transaction, on October 26, 2022, we entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment Letter”), pursuant to which JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. committed to provide us approximately $5,500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior bridge loans under a 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility (the “Bridge Facility”) to, among other things, fund the Altra Transaction. There were $4,160.0 million in Bridge Facility commitments remaining at December 31, 2022. As further discussed below, the Bridge Facility was terminated upon issuance of the Senior Notes in January 2023. We paid $27.5 million in Bridge Facility fees in fiscal 2022.

Backstop Facility

In connection with the Altra Transaction, on October 26, 2022, we entered into a backstop credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. in an aggregate principal amount of up to $2,030.0 million (the “Backstop Facility”). The Backstop Facility was terminated on November 17, 2022 when we entered into the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement further discussed above. We paid $5.1 million in Backstop facility fees in fiscal 2022.

Senior Notes

On January 24, 2023, we issued $1,100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.05% senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Senior Notes”), $1,250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.05% senior notes due 2028 (the “2028 Senior Notes”), $1,100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.30% senior notes due 2030 (the “2030 Senior Notes”) and ~~$150.4~~$1,250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.40% senior notes due 2033 (the “2033 Senior Notes” and, together with the ~~weighted average interest rate~~2026 Senior Notes, 2028 Senior Notes and 2030 Senior Notes, collectively, the “Senior Notes”).

We received $4,647.0 million in net proceeds from the sale of the Senior Notes in January 2023, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses. We used a portion of the net proceeds to repay our outstanding Private Placement Notes, as further discussed above, and intend to use the remaining net proceeds, together with the incremental term loan commitments under the Term Facility and cash on hand, to fund the consideration for the Altra Transaction, repay certain of Altra’s outstanding indebtedness (including the tender of the Altra Notes, as discussed below), and pay certain fees and expenses.

Tender Offer

In February 2023, we announced the commencement of a tender offer (the "Tender Offer") to purchase for cash any and all of the outstanding 6.125% senior notes due 2026 (the "Altra Notes") of Stevens Holding Company, Inc., Altra's wholly-owned subsidiary from the holders of the Altra Notes. In connection with this tender offer, we are soliciting the consents of the holders of the Altra Notes to certain amendments to the related indenture. Concurrently with, but separate from the Tender Offer and related consent solicitation, we commenced an offer to purchase for cash any and all of the Altra Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate ~~unused~~principal amount of the ~~Multicurrency Revolving Facility at a rate determined by reference~~Altra Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest (the "CoC Tender"), pursuant to ~~its consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio.~~the change of control provisions of the indenture.

Compliance with Financial Covenants

The Credit Agreement ~~contain covenants under which we agree~~requires us to ~~maintain~~meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. We were in compliance with all financial covenants contained in the ~~Notes and the~~ Credit Agreement as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022.

~~Senior Notes~~

In connection with the closing of the Rexnord Transaction, on September 30, 2021, we redeemed in full our senior notes due 2023 under the note purchase agreement, dated July 14, 2011 (as amended), by and between us and the purchasers thereto (the "Note Purchase Agreement"). Inclusive of principal, interest and the applicable make-whole payment, the total amount paid by us to redeem such senior notes was approximately $184.0 million. The make-whole payment of $12.7 million was included in interest expense. We funded this amount with a combination of cash on hand and drawings under the Credit Agreement. We also redeemed in the quarter our senior notes due July 2021 under the Note Purchase Agreement with a combination of cash on hand and drawings under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility.

Other Notes Payable

As of December 31, 2022, other notes payable of $76.7 million were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 5.1%. As of January 1, 2022, other notes payable of $78.7 million were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 5.2%. AsThese amounts consist primarily of ~~January 2, 2021, other notes payable of $4.6 million were outstanding with a weighted average rate of 4.9%.~~finance leases. See Note 9 – Leases of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more ~~information on the Company's finance leases.~~

~~Financing Arrangements Related to Rexnord Transaction~~

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, on February 15, 2021, we entered into a debt commitment letter (the “Bridge Commitment Letter”) and related fee letters with Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Barclays committed to provide approximately $2.1 billion in an aggregate principal amount of senior bridge loans under a 364-day senior bridge loan credit facility (the “Bridge Facility”). As the Rexnord Transaction was consummated and the payments of amounts in connection therewith occurred without the use of the Bridge Facility, the commitments under the Bridge Commitment Letter were terminated in connection with the closing of the Rexnord Transaction.

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, on May 14, 2021, Land entered into a Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and the lenders named therein (the "Land Credit Agreement"), providing for a delayed draw term loan facility with commitments thereunder in an aggregate principal amount of $487.0 million, maturing on August 25, 2023 (the "Land Term Facility"). The proceeds of the Land Term facility were drawn by Land to fund a payment from Land to a subsidiary of Zurn in connection with the Rexnord Transaction. Upon the consummation the Rexnord Transaction, the indebtedness contemplated by the Land Credit Agreement became indebtedness of our wholly-owned subsidiary and, in connection therewith, the Land Credit Agreement was amended and restated (the "A&R Land Credit Agreement") to add us as a party to the A&R Land Credit Agreement and as a guarantor of the obligations of Land thereunder. Our subsidiaries that provided a guaranty of the obligations under the Credit Agreement also entered into a subsidiary guaranty agreement with respect to the obligations under the A&R Land Credit Agreement. Additionally, Land and any subsidiary of Land that provided a guaranty under the Land Term Facility have also entered into the subsidiary guaranty agreement with respect to the Credit Agreement. The loans under the Land Term Facility will bear interest at floating rates based upon a reserve adjusted LIBOR rate or, our election, an alternate base rate plus, in each case an applicable margin determined by reference to our consolidated funded debt (net of certain cash and cash equivalents) to EBITDA ratio. The A&R Land Credit Agreement contains customary events of default and financial and other covenants, including (i) a maximum leverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of our consolidated funded debt to EBITDA) as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of 4.00 to 1.00; and (ii) a minimum interest coverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of EBITDA to our consolidated cash interest expense) of 3.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter.

As of January 1, 2022, we had $486.8 million of borrowings under the Land Term Facility. The weighted average interest rate on the Land Term Facility was 1.3% during the fiscal year ended January 1, 2022.

~~Other Disclosures~~

Based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities and credit quality, the approximate fair value of our total debt was $1,918.5 million and $1,085.8 million as of January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, respectively.information.

(1) The timing and future spot prices affect the settlement values of our hedge obligations related to commodities and currency exchange rates. Accordingly, these obligations are not included above in the table of contractual obligations (See also Item 7A and Note 13 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). The timing of settlement of our tax contingent liabilities cannot be reasonably determined and they are not included above in the table of contractual obligations. Future pension obligation payments after fiscal ~~2021~~2022 are subject to revaluation based on changes in the benefit population and/or changes in the value of pension assets based on market conditions that are not determinable as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022.

(2) Variable rate debt based on ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 rates. See also Note 7 – Debt and Bank Credit Facilities of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

We utilize blanket purchase orders (“Blankets”) to communicate expected annual requirements to many of our suppliers. Requirements under Blankets generally do not become “firm” until a varying number of weeks before our scheduled production. The purchase obligations shown in the above table represent the value we consider “firm.”

Critical Accounting ~~Policies~~Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US") requires us to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We believe the following critical accounting policies could have the most significant effect on our reported results.

Purchase Accounting and Business Combinations

Assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as part of a business combination are recognized separately from goodwill at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. We, with the assistance of outside specialists as necessary, use estimates and assumptions to value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date as well as contingent consideration, where applicable. We may refine these estimates during the measurement period which may be up to one year from the acquisition date. As a result, during the measurement period, we record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Goodwill

We ~~evaluate~~test goodwill for impairment at least annually and perform our annual impairment test as of the ~~carrying amount~~end of ~~goodwill annually, or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that an asset might be impaired. When applying~~ the ~~accounting guidance, we use estimates to determine when it might be necessary to take an impairment charge.~~October fiscal month. Factors that could trigger an impairment ~~review~~assessment include significant underperformance relative to historical or forecasted operating results, a significant decrease in the market value of an asset or significant negative industry or economic trends. ~~For~~Reporting units with recent impairments or those with goodwill ~~we may perform a qualitative test to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that~~resulting from recent acquisitions generally present the ~~fair value~~highest risk of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. We perform our required annual goodwill impairment test as of the end of the October fiscal month.impairment.

We ~~use a weighting~~determine the fair value of ~~the market approach and the~~each reporting unit utilizing an income approach (discounted cash flow method) ~~in testing goodwill for impairment. In the~~weighted 75% and a market approach ~~we apply performance multiples from~~(consisting of a comparable public ~~companies, adjusted for relative risk, profitability, and growth considerations, to~~company multiples methodology) weighted 25%. The assumptions that have the ~~reporting units to estimate fair value. The key assumptions used in~~most significant effect on the ~~discounted cash flow method used to estimate~~ fair value ~~include~~calculations are discount rates, ~~revenue and~~market multiples, forecasted EBITDA ~~margin projections~~ and terminal ~~value rates because such assumptions are the most sensitive and susceptible to change as they require significant management judgment.~~growth rates.

The discount rate utilized for~~and reflect the risks and uncertainties inherent to each reporting unit is indicative of the return an investor would expect to receive for investing in such a business. Terminal value rate determination follows common methodology of capturing the present value of perpetual cash flow estimates beyond the last projected period assuming a constant discount rate and ~~long-term growth rates.~~our internally developed forecasts.

~~In the fourth quarter~~For fiscal 2022, we performed quantitative impairment tests for all nine of ~~fiscal 2021, we recorded goodwill impairment of $33.0 million in~~ our ~~global industrial motors~~ reporting ~~unit.~~units. The ~~global industrial motors reporting unit had goodwill of $80.1 million as of January 1, 2022 and is included in our Industrial Systems segment. Some of the key considerations~~discount rates used in our ~~impairment testing included (i) market pricing~~fiscal 2022 reporting unit valuations ranged from 11.0% to 18.0%. Based on the fiscal 2022 annual goodwill test, the fair value of ~~guideline publicly traded companies (ii) cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate, and (iii) recent historical and projected operating results~~each of the ~~subject~~ reporting ~~unit.~~units exceeded its carrying value by more than 10%. As a result, no goodwill impairments were recorded in fiscal 2022. There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in goodwill impairment ~~testing. A~~testing and a change to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment, ~~that~~which could be material.

~~We aggregate our business units by segment for reporting purposes (see also~~ See Note 65 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial ~~Statements).~~Statements for more information.

Long-Lived Assets

We evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable through future cash flows. When applying the accounting guidance, we use estimates to determine when an impairment is necessary. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include a significant decrease in the market value of an asset or significant negative or economic trends (see also Note 5 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements). For long-lived assets, the Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the primary asset to estimate recoverability.

~~Retirement and Post Retirement~~Defined Benefit Pension Plans

~~Most of our domestic associates are participants in defined contribution plans and/or defined benefit pension plans.~~ The majority of the defined benefit pension plans covering our domestic associates have been closed to new associates and frozen for existing ~~associates, however,~~associates; however certain employees represented by collective bargaining continue to earn benefits. ~~Certain associates are covered by a post-retirement health care plan.~~ Most of our foreign associates are covered by government sponsored plans in the countries in which they are employed. ~~Our obligations under~~

The valuation of our defined benefit pension ~~plans are determined with~~plan obligations and cost requires the ~~assistance~~use of ~~actuarial firms. The actuaries make certain~~ assumptions ~~regarding such factors as withdrawal~~and estimates, including discount rates, investment returns, and mortality rates. Our discount rate assumption is determined by developing a yield curve based on high quality corporate bonds with maturities matching the plans’ expected benefit payment streams. The ~~actuaries also provide information and recommendations from which management makes further assumptions on such factors as~~plans’ expected cash flows are then discounted by the result year-by-year spot rates. Our expected long-term ~~expected~~ rate of return on plan assets is reviewed annually based on actual and forecasted returns, economic trends and portfolio allocation. The following tables illustrate the ~~discount rate on benefit obligations and where applicable,~~effects of changing certain of the ~~rate of annual compensation increases.~~actuarial assumptions discussed above, while holding all other assumptions constant:

~~Based upon the~~


	Actual Assumption	Change in Assumption	Impact

ITEM 7A - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk relating to our operations due to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices of purchased raw materials. We manage the exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating and financing activities and derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, commodity cash flow hedges

and foreign currency forward exchange contracts. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to clearly defined policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative purposes.

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

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk on certain of our short-term and long-term debt obligations used to finance our operations and acquisitions. As of December 31, 2022, we had $576.7 million of fixed rate debt and $1,452.1 million of variable rate debt. As of January 1, 2022, we had $76.7 million of fixed rate debt and $1,845.5 ~~million of variable rate debt. As of January 2, 2021, we had $404.1 million of fixed rate debt and $670.5~~ million of variable rate debt. We utilize interest rate swaps to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from exposure to interest rate risk on forecasted variable rate interest payments.

We have floating rate borrowings, which expose us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 10% change in our weighted average borrowing rate on outstanding variable rate debt as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 would result in a ~~$2.3~~$8.2 million change in after-tax annualized earnings. We entered into two forward starting pay fixed/receive floating ~~non-amortizing~~nonamortizing interest rate swaps in June 2020, with a total notional amount of $250.0 million to manage fluctuations in cash flows from interest rate risk related to floating rate interest.

The cash proceeds of $16.2 million received to settle the terminated swaps will be recognized into interest expense via the effective interest rate method through July ~~2021 and will expire~~2025 when the terminated swaps were scheduled to expire. We also entered into two forward starting pay fixed/receive floating non-amortizing interest rate swaps in ~~July 2025.~~May 2022, with a total notional amount of $250.0 million to manage fluctuations in cash flows from interest rate risk related to floating rate interest.

As of December 31, 2022, a $7.9 million interest rate swap was included in Other Noncurrent Assets. As of January 1, 2022, a $5.3 million interest rate swap was included in Other Noncurrent Assets. ~~As of January 2, 2021, a $(0.7) million interest rate swap was included in Other Current Liabilities and a $(1.4) million interest rate swap was included in Other Noncurrent Liabilities.~~ There was an unrealized gain of ~~$4.0~~$17.0 million, net of tax, (a $11.0 million gain on the terminated swaps and a $6.0 million gain on the active swaps) for fiscal ~~2021~~2022 and an unrealized ~~loss~~gain of ~~$(1.6)~~$4.0 million for ~~2020~~2021 that was recorded in AOCI for the effective portion of the hedge.

In July 2017, the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. We have material exposure to LIBOR through our revolving credit facility, certain lines of credit and interest rate swaps that are indexed to USD-LIBOR. It is expected that LIBOR will be discontinued and, while we believe an acceptable replacement to LIBOR will be available, if LIBOR is discontinued, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact, if any, on such discontinuation.

Foreign Currency Risk

We are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Our objective is to minimize our exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating activities and the utilization of foreign currency exchange contracts to manage our exposure on the forecasted transactions denominated in currencies other than the applicable functional currency. Contracts are executed with credit worthy banks and are denominated in currencies of major industrial countries. We do not hedge our exposure to the translation of reported results of foreign subsidiaries from local currency to United States dollars.

As of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of ~~$8.6~~$13.0 million, ~~$0.7~~$0.9 million and ~~$(1.7)~~$(4.8) million, are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets and Other Accrued Expenses, respectively. As of January ~~2, 2021,~~1, 2022, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of ~~$16.6~~$8.6 million, ~~$1.6 million, $(1.0)~~$0.7 million and ~~$(0.1)~~$(1.7) million , are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets and Other Accrued Expenses, ~~and Other Noncurrent Liabilities,~~ respectively. The unrealized gains on the effective portions of the hedges of ~~$5.8~~$6.3 million net of tax and ~~$12.7~~$5.8 million net of tax, as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 and January ~~2, 2021,~~1, 2022, respectively, was recorded in AOCI. As of December 31, 2022, we had $5.3 million, net of tax, of currency gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. As of January 1, 2022, we had $1.9 million, net of tax, of currency gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. ~~As of January 2, 2021, we had $1.1 million, net of tax, of currency gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings.~~

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

Commodity Price Risk

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

Derivative commodity assets (liabilities) of $0.9 million, $0.3 million and $(10.6) million are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets and Other Accrued Expenses, respectively as of December 31, 2022. Derivative commodity assets (liabilities) of $9.3 million, $0.1 million, $(1.2) million and $(0.6) million are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Other Accrued Expenses and Other Noncurrent Liabilities, respectively as of January 1, 2022. ~~Derivative commodity assets of $11.4 million and $0.1 million are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets and Other Noncurrent Assets, respectively as of January 2, 2021.~~ The unrealized ~~gain~~loss on the effective portion of the hedges of ~~$5.6~~$6.9 million net of tax and ~~$8.7~~unrealized gain of $5.6 million net of tax, as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 and January ~~2, 2021,~~1, 2022, respectively, was recorded in AOCI. As of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022, we had an additional ~~$3.7~~$4.4 million, net of tax, of derivative commodity ~~gain~~loss on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. As of January ~~2, 2021,~~1, 2022, we had an additional ~~$2.6~~$3.7 million, net of tax, of derivative commodity gain on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings.

The net AOCI balance related to hedging activities of ~~$21.0~~$17.3 million ~~loss~~of gains as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 includes ~~$11.3~~$3.7 million of net current deferred gains expected to be realized in the next twelve months.

Counterparty Risk

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

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of Regal Rexnord Corporation (the “Company”) is responsible for the accuracy and internal consistency of the preparation of the consolidated financial statements and footnotes contained in this annual report.

The Company's management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company operates under a system of internal accounting controls designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of published financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The internal accounting control system is evaluated for effectiveness by management and is tested, monitored and revised as necessary. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

The Company's management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022. In making its assessment, the Company's management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on the results of its evaluation, the Company's management concluded that, as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022, the Company's internal control over financial reporting is effective at the reasonable assurance level based on those criteria.

Management excluded an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting related to the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses. The Company acquired the Rexnord PMC business on October 4, 2021, and the Automation Solutions business on November 23, 2021. Together, the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses represented 11% of the Company’s consolidated total assets (excluding goodwill and intangibles which were included in management's assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of January 1, 2022) and 9% of the consolidated total revenues as of and for the year ended January 1, 2022. Accordingly, the Company’s assessment did not include the internal control over financial reporting for the Rexnord PMC or Automation Solutions businesses.

Our internal control over financial reporting as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein.

~~REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM~~

~~To the shareholders and the Board of Directors of Regal Rexnord Corporation~~

~~Opinion on the Financial Statements~~

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Regal Rexnord Corporation and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended January 1, 2022, and the related notes and the schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 1, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of January 1, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 2, 2022, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

~~Basis for Opinion~~

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

~~Critical Audit Matters~~

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

~~Goodwill Valuation – Global Industrial Motors Reporting Unit – Refer to Notes 3 and 5 to the Financial Statements~~

~~Critical Audit Matter Description~~

The Company performed an impairment evaluation of the goodwill for the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit by comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. In order to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit, management is required to make significant estimates and assumptions related to the discount rate and forecasts of future earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) margins. Changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value, the amount of any goodwill impairment charge, or both. The consolidated goodwill balance was $4,039 million as of January 1, 2022, of which $80.1 million related to the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit. As of October 30, 2021, the Company’s measurement date, the Company determined that the carrying value for the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit was in excess of fair value and recorded a $33.0 million goodwill impairment charge.

We identified the impairment evaluation of goodwill for the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit as a critical audit matter because of the inherent subjectivity involved in management’s estimates and assumptions related to the discount rate and forecasts of future EBITDA margins. The audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and

assumptions related to the selection of the discount rate and forecast of future EBITDA margins required a high degree of auditor judgement and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists.

~~How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit~~

~~Our audit procedures related to the selection of the discount rate and forecasts of future EBITDA margins for the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit included the following, among others:~~

•We tested the effectiveness of controls over management’s goodwill impairment evaluation, including those over the selection of the discount rate and management’s development of forecasts of future EBITDA margins.

•We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s forecasts by comparing the forecasts to (1) historical results, (2) internal communications to management and the Board of Directors, and (3) forecasted information included in analyst and industry reports for the Company and certain of its peer companies.

•~~We evaluated the impact of changes in management’s forecasts from the October 30, 2021, annual measurement date to January 1, 2022.~~

•~~With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rate by:~~

◦~~Testing the source information underlying management’s determination of the discount rate.~~

◦~~Testing the mathematical accuracy of management’s calculations.~~

◦~~Developing a range of independent estimates and compared those to the discount rate selected by management.~~

~~Fair Value of Acquired Customer Relationship, Tradename and Technology Intangible Assets – Refer to Note 3 to the Financial Statements~~

~~Critical Audit Matter Description~~

During 2021, the Company acquired the Rexnord Process & Motion Control business from Rexnord Corporation (now known as Zurn Water Solutions Corporation) for an aggregate purchase price of $3,977 million. The Company accounted for the acquisition under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values. Related to the acquisition, the Company recorded intangible assets related to customer relationships, tradenames and technology assets of $1,519 million, $225 million and $87 million, respectively, based on a discounted cash flow model. In order to estimate the acquisition date fair value of the customer relationship, tradenames and technology intangible assets, management made significant estimates and assumptions related to discount rates, royalty rates, and forecasts of future revenues and EBITDA margins.

Given the fair value determination of the acquired customer relationships, tradenames and technology assets required management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to the forecasts of future cash flows and the selection of the discount rates and royalty rates, performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists.

~~How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit~~

~~Our audit procedures related to the selection of discount rates, royalty rates and forecasts of future revenues and EBITDA margins for the intangible assets included the following, among others:~~

•We tested the effectiveness of controls over management’s evaluation of the fair value of acquired intangibles, including those over the selection of the discount rates, royalty rates, and management’s development of forecasts of future revenues and EBITDA margins.

•With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the discount rates and royalty rates, and tested the underlying market-based source information and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations, and developed a range of independent valuation assumptions and compared those to the respective discount rates and royalty rates selected by management.

Change in Accounting Principle

As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, in 2022, the Company elected to change its method of accounting for certain inventories from the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) cost method to the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost method and retrospectively adjusted the 2021 and 2020 financial statements for this change.

Goodwill Valuation – Global Industrial Motors and the MCS Aerospace Reporting Units – Refer to Notes 3 and 5 to the Financial Statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

The Company performed an impairment evaluation of the goodwill for the Global Industrial Motors and the MCS Aerospace reporting units by comparing the estimated fair value of the reporting units to their carrying value. In order to estimate the fair value of the reporting units, management is required to make estimates and assumptions related to the discount rate and forecasts of future Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation & Amortization (“EBITDA”) margins, which involve significant judgment. Changes in these assumptions could have a significant impact on either the fair value, the amount of any goodwill impairment charge, or both. The goodwill balance was $4,018.8 million as of December 31, 2022, of which $78.6 million related to the Global Industrial Motors reporting unit and $208.7 million related to the MCS Aerospace reporting unit. As of October 31, 2022, the Company’s measurement date, the Company determined that the fair value of each of the reporting units exceeded its carrying value and therefore no impairment was recognized.

We identified the impairment evaluation of goodwill for the Global Industrial Motors and the MCS Aerospace reporting units as a critical audit matter because of the inherent subjectivity involved in management’s estimates and assumptions related to the

discount rate and forecasts of future EBITDA margins. The audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of management’s estimates and assumptions related to the selection of the discount rates and forecast of future EBITDA margins required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort, including the need to involve our fair value specialists.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to the selection of the discount rate and forecasts of future EBITDA margins for the Global Industrial Motors and MCS Aerospace reporting units included the following, among others:

•We evaluated the design and effectiveness of the controls over management’s goodwill impairment evaluation, including those over the selection of the discount rates and management’s development of forecasts of future EBITDA margins.

•We assessed management’s historical ability to accurately forecast the reporting units’ results of operations.

•We assessed management’s intent and/or ability to take specific actions included in management’s forecasts.

•We evaluated the impact of changes in management’s forecasts from the October 31, 2022, annual measurement date to December 31, 2022.

•With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the reasonableness of the discount rates by:

–Testing the source information underlying management’s determination of the discount rates.

–Testing the mathematical accuracy of management’s calculations.

–Developing a range of independent estimates and compared those to the discount rates selected by management.

Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

(3) Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. In addition, the Company has joint ventures that are consolidated in accordance with consolidation accounting guidance. All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated.

Use of Estimates

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

Acquisitions

The Company recognizes assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies and contingent consideration at their fair value on the acquisition date. The operating results of the acquired companies are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred, restructuring costs are recognized as post-acquisition expense and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the measurement period are recorded in Provision for Income Taxes. See Note 4 -Acquisitionsfor more information.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of electric motors, electrical motion controls, power generation and power transmission products. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the product passes to the customer or the service is provided and is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for such goods or services.

5861

For a limited number of contracts, the Company recognizes revenue over time in proportion to costs incurred. The pricing of products sold is generally supported by customer purchase orders, and accounts receivable collection is reasonably assured. Estimated discounts and rebates are recorded as a reduction of gross sales in the same period revenue is recognized. Product returns and credits are estimated and recorded at the time of shipment based upon historical experience. Shipping and handling costs are recorded as revenue when billed to the customers. The costs incurred from shipping are recorded in Cost of Sales and handling costs incurred in connection with selling and distribution activities are recorded in Operating Expenses.

The Company derives a significant portion of its revenues from several original equipment manufacturing customers. Despite this relative concentration, there were no customers that accounted for more than 10% of consolidated net sales in fiscal ~~2021,~~2022, fiscal ~~2020~~2021 or fiscal ~~2019.~~2020.

Nature of Goods and Services

The Company sells products with multiple applications as well as customized products that have a single application such as those manufactured for its OEM customers. The Company reports in 4four operating segments: Commercial Systems, Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Motion Control Solutions. See Note 6 – Segment Information for a description of the different segments.

Nature of Performance Obligations

The Company’s contracts with customers typically consist of purchase orders, invoices and master supply agreements. At contract inception, across all 4four segments, the Company assesses the goods and services promised in its sales arrangements with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service that is distinct. The Company’s primary performance obligations consist of product sales and customized systems/solutions.

Product:

The nature of products varies from segment to segment but across all segments, individual products are generally not integrated and represent separate performance obligations.

Customized systems/solutions:

The Company provides customized systems/solutions which consist of multiple products engineered and designed to specific customer specification, combined or integrated into one combined solution for a specific customer application. The goods are transferred to the customer and revenue is typically recognized over time as the performance obligations are satisfied.

When Performance Obligations are Satisfied

For performance obligations related to substantially all of the Company's product sales, the Company determines that the customer obtains control upon shipment and recognizes revenue accordingly. Once a product has shipped, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. The Company considers control to have transferred upon shipment because the Company has a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, the Company has transferred physical possession of the asset, and the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset.

For a limited number of contracts, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue over time. The Company satisfies its performance obligations over time and the Company uses a cost-based input method to measure progress. In applying the cost-based method of revenue recognition, the Company uses actual costs incurred to date relative to the total estimated costs for the contract in conjunction with the customer's commitment to perform in determining the amount of revenue and cost to recognize. The Company has determined that the cost-based input method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods to the customer.

Payment Terms

The arrangement with the customer states the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price of each product or service purchased. Payment terms vary by customer but typically range from due upon delivery to 120 days after delivery. For contracts recognized at a point in time, revenue and billing typically occur simultaneously. The Company generally has payment terms with its customers of one year or less and has elected the practical expedient applicable to such contracts not to consider the time value of money. For contracts recognized using the cost-based input method, revenue recognized in excess of customer billings and billings in excess of revenue recognized are reviewed to determine the ~~net~~contract asset or ~~net~~contract liability position and classified as such on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

5962

Returns, Refunds and Warranties

The Company’s contracts do not explicitly offer a “general” right of return to its customers (e.g. customers ordered excess products and return unused items). Warranties are classified as either assurance type or service type warranties. A warranty is considered an assurance type warranty if it provides the customer with assurance that the product will function as intended. A warranty that goes above and beyond ensuring basic functionality is considered a service type warranty. The Company generally only offers limited warranties which are considered to be assurance type warranties and are not accounted for as separate performance obligations. Customers generally receive repair or replacement on products that do not function to specification. Estimated product warranties are provided for specific product groups and the Company accrues for estimated future warranty cost in the period in which the sale is recognized. The Company estimates the accrual requirements based on historical warranty loss experience and the cost is included in Cost of Sales. See Note 12 -Contingenciesfor more information.

Volume Rebates

In some cases, the nature of the Company’s contract may give rise to variable consideration including volume based sales incentives. If the customer achieves specific sales targets, it is entitled to rebates. The Company estimates the projected amount of the rebates that will be achieved and recognizes the estimated costs as a reduction to Net Sales as revenue is recognized.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by geographical region for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, ~~and December 28, 2019, respectively, (in millions):~~respectively:

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

The Company typically expenses incremental direct costs of obtaining a contract, primarily sales commissions, as incurred because the amortization period is expected to be 12 months or less. Contract costs are included in Operating Expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.

6063

Due to the short nature of the Company’s contracts, the Company has adopted a practical expedient to not disclose revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations as substantially all of its contracts have original terms of 12 months or less.

The Company typically does not include in its transaction price any amounts collected from customers for sales taxes.

~~The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment activities and expense the costs as incurred as part of Cost of Sales.~~

Research, Development and Engineering

The Company performs research, development and engineering activities relating to new product development and the improvement of current products. The Company's research, development and engineering expenses consist primarily of costs for: (i) salaries and related personnel expenses; (ii) the design and development of new energy efficient products and enhancements; (iii) quality assurance and testing; and (iv) other related overhead. The Company's research, development and engineering efforts tend to be targeted toward developing new products that would allow it to gain additional market share, whether in new or existing segments.

Research, development and engineering costs are expensed as incurred. The costs are recorded in Operating Expenses in the fiscal year as follows as noted in the table below:

January 1, 2022 January 2, 2021 December 28, 2019
Research, Development and Engineering Costs $ 74.5 $ 67.0 $ 64.6


	December 31, 2022		January 1, 2022		January 2, 2021
Research, Development and Engineering Costs	$	106.6	$	74.5	$	67.0

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments which are readily convertible to cash, present insignificant risk of changes in value due to interest rate fluctuations and have original or purchased maturities of three months or less.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash equivalents. The Company has material deposits with global financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of its financial institutions and monitors the amount of exposure.

Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to the large number of customers and their dispersion across many geographic areas. The Company monitors credit risk associated with its trade receivables.

Trade Receivables

The Company's policy for estimating the allowance for credit losses on trade receivables considers several factors including historical write-off experience, overall customer credit quality in relation to general economic and market conditions, and specific customer account analyses to estimate expected credit losses. The specific customer account analysis considers such items as, credit worthiness, payment history, and historical bad debt experience. Trade receivables are written off after exhaustive collection efforts occur and the receivable is deemed uncollectible. Adjustments to the allowance for credit losses are recorded in Operating Expenses. Trade receivables acquired in the Rexnord Transaction (see Note 4 - Acquisitions and Divestitures) were recorded at fair value at the acquisition date in an amount that reflected expected credit losses, and accordingly, an allowance for credit losses was not separately presented and disclosed. The allowance for credit losses has increased by approximately $11.0 million at December 31, 2022 when compared to January 1, 2022 primarily due to the presentation of post-merger trade receivables at carrying value, with an allowance for credit losses presented separately. There has not been a significant change in the amount of expected credit losses from the acquisition date to December 31, 2022.

Inventories

As of January 2, 2022, the Company changed its method for valuing certain inventories to the FIFO cost method from the LIFO cost method. The Company believes that this change in accounting is preferable as it provides a better matching of costs and revenues, more closely resembles the physical flow of inventory, better reflects acquisition cost of inventory on the balance sheet, conforms the Company's method of inventory valuation to a single method, results in improved comparability with industry peers and reduces the administrative burden of determining the LIFO valuation.

The effects of this change have been retrospectively applied to all periods presented. This change resulted in an increase to retained earnings of $38.4 million as of January 2, 2021.

In addition, certain financial statement line items in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the years ended January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021 and our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 1, 2022, were adjusted as follows:

The ~~Company changed its~~following table compares amounts that would have been reported under the LIFO method with amounts reported under the FIFO method in our Consolidated Statement of ~~calculating last-in, first-out ("LIFO") inventories, which represented approximately 48.5%~~Operations, Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the ~~Company’s inventory~~year ended December 31, 2022 and our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of January 2, 2021. The Company increased the number of LIFO inventory pools to 4 to align with the Company’s operating and reporting segments. Previously, the Company had 3 LIFO inventory pools, which aligned with the Company's operating and reporting segments prior to the fiscal year 2020. The Company believes this change in accounting principle is preferable under the circumstances because it combines inventory items with similarities within a segment and better aligns revenue with expenses based on the four segment structure as well as how management manages and assesses the performance of the businesses. The Company determined that it had the data needed to apply this change in accounting principle as of the beginning of its fiscal year 2019, but it was impracticable to apply the change in periods prior to then. The change in accounting principle has been reflected in fiscal years 2019 and 2020. The change did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements for the years ended January 2, 2021 and December ~~28, 2019. See Note 6 for details.~~31, 2022:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost which is not in excess of market. Cost for approximately 48.5% of the Company's inventory as of January 1, 2022 and 50.0% as of January 2, 2021 was determined using the last-in, first-out method. If all inventories were valued on the first-in, first-out method, they would have increased by $85.8 million and $60.0 million as of January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, respectively.or net realizable value. Material, labor and factory overhead costs are included in the inventories.

The Company reviews inventories for excess and obsolete products or components. Based on an analysis of historical usage and management's evaluation of estimated future demand, market conditions and alternative uses for possible excess or obsolete parts, the Company records an excess and obsolete reserve.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, Plant and Equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of plant and equipment is provided principally on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives (3 to 50 years) of the depreciable assets. Accelerated methods are used for income tax purposes.

Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense when incurred. Expenditures which extend the useful lives of existing equipment are capitalized and depreciated.

Upon retirement or disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized. Leasehold improvements are capitalized and amortized over the lesser of the life of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset.

Property, plant and equipment by major classification was as ~~follows (in millions):~~follows:


		Useful Life (In Years)	January 1, 2022		January 2, 2021				Useful Life (In Years)			December 31, 2022		January 1, 2022

~~During fiscal 2021, the Company recognized $5.6~~As of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, $47.1 million and $50.3 million of ~~asset impairments related to the transfer of~~ROU assets ~~to held for sale. For fiscal 2020, the Company recognized $5.3 million of asset impairments related to the transfer of assets to held for sale.~~(as defined in Note 9 - Leases) were included in Net Property, Plant and Equipment, respectively.

Goodwill

The Company evaluates the carrying amount of goodwill annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the goodwill might be impaired. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include significant underperformance relative to historical or forecasted operating results, a significant decrease in the market value of an asset or significant negative industry or economic trends. For goodwill, the Company may perform a qualitative test to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. The Company performed quantitative impairment testing for all reporting units in fiscal ~~2021.~~2022. The Company performs the required annual goodwill impairment testing as of the end of the October fiscal month.

The Company uses a weighting of the market approach and the income approach (discounted cash flow method) in testing goodwill for impairment. In the market approach, the Company applies performance multiples from comparable public companies, adjusted for relative risk, profitability, and growth considerations, to the reporting units to estimate fair value. The key assumptions used in the discounted cash flow method used to estimate fair value include discount rates, revenue and EBITDA margin projections and terminal value rates because such assumptions are the most sensitive and susceptible to change as they require significant management judgment. Discount rates are determined by using market and industry data as well as Company-specific risk factors for each reporting unit. The discount rate utilized for each reporting unit is indicative of the return an investor would expect to receive for investing in such a business. Terminal value rate determination follows common methodology of capturing the present value of perpetual cash flow estimates beyond the last projected period assuming a constant discount rate and long-term growth rates.

~~In the fourth quarter of 2021, the~~The Company did not record any goodwill impairments in fiscal 2022. The Company recorded goodwill ~~impairment~~impairments of $33.0 million inand $10.5 million for its global industrial motors reporting ~~unit. The global industrial motors reporting~~ unit ~~had goodwill of $80.1 million as of January 1, 2022~~in fiscal 2021 and ~~is included in the Company's Industrial Systems segment.~~2020, respectively. Some of the key considerations used in the Company's impairment testing included (i) market pricing of guideline publicly traded companies (ii) cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate, and (iii) recent historical and projected operating results of the subject reporting unit. There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in goodwill impairment testing. A change to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment that could be material. See Note 5 - Goodwill and Intangible Assets for more information.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight line method. The Company evaluates amortizing intangibles whenever events or circumstances have occurred that indicate carrying values may not be recoverable. If an indicator is present, the Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the primary asset to estimate recoverability of the asset group. If such estimated future cash flows are less than carrying value, an impairment would be recognized. There was no impairment of intangible assets during fiscal 2022, 2021 or 2020.

~~Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized.~~ The ~~Company evaluates the carrying amount of~~Company's indefinite-lived intangible assets annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. The Company performs the required annual impairment testing as of the end of the October fiscal month.

~~The indefinite-lived intangible asset~~previously consisted of a trade name associated with the acquisition of the Power Transmission Solutions business from Emerson Electric Co. ~~It was~~During fiscal 2021, following the Rexnord Transaction (as defined in Note 4 – Acquisitions and Divestitures), which included the acquisition of additional trade names that impacted on

Following this change, this asset has been evaluated for impairment ~~in October 2021. The~~under guidance applicable to long-lived assets. Previously, the Company determined the fair value of this asset using a royalty relief methodology similar to the methodology used when the associated asset was acquired, but used updated assumptions and estimates of future sales and profitability. For fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeded its respective carrying value. Some of the key considerations used in the Company's impairment testing included (i) cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate, (ii) royalty rate and (iii) recent historical and projected operating performance. ~~There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in indefinite-lived intangible asset testing.~~

~~During the fourth quarter of 2021, following the Rexnord Transaction (as defined in~~See Note 4), which included the acquisition of additional trade names that may have an impact on the Company's long-term branding strategy, the Company determined that the indefinite-lived intangible asset associated with the Power Transmission Solutions trade name had a finite life5 - Goodwill and ~~began amortizing it over a remaining estimated useful life using the straight line method.

Long-Lived Assets Impairment

The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment assets (collectively, "long-lived assets") whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable through future cash flows. Factors that could trigger an impairment review include a significant decrease in the market value of an asset or significant negative economic trends. For long-lived assets, the Company uses an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the primary asset to estimate recoverability of the asset group. If the asset is not recoverable, the asset is written down to fair value. In fiscal ~~2021,~~2022, the Company concluded it had asset impairments related to ~~the transfer of~~ assets to held for sale of ~~$5.6~~$0.9 million. The Company concluded it had an impairment of ~~$5.3~~$5.6 million in long-lived assets in fiscal ~~2020~~2021 due to the transfer of assets to held for sale.

Earnings Per Share

Diluted earnings per share is computed based upon earnings applicable to common shares divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period adjusted for the effect of dilutive securities. Share based compensation awards for common shares where the exercise price was above the market price have been excluded from the calculation of the effect of dilutive securities shown below; the amount of these shares were 0.2 million in fiscal 2022, 0.1 million in fiscal 2021 ~~0.4 million in fiscal 2020~~ and 0.4 million in fiscal ~~2019.~~2020.

~~Retirement and Post-Retirement~~Defined Benefit Pension Plans

~~The Company's domestic associates are covered by defined contribution plans and approximately half of the Company's domestic associates are covered by defined benefit pension plans.~~ The majority of the defined benefit pension plans covering the Company's domestic associates have been closed to new associates and frozen for existing associates. ~~Certain associates are covered by a post-retirement health care plan.~~ Most of the Company's foreign associates are covered by government sponsored plans in the countries in which they are employed. The Company's obligations under its defined benefit pension ~~and other post-retirement plans~~ are determined with the assistance of actuarial firms. The actuaries, under management's direction, make certain assumptions regarding such factors as withdrawal rates and mortality rates. The actuaries also provide information and recommendations from which management makes further assumptions on such factors as the long-term expected rate of return on plan assets, the discount rate on benefit obligations and where applicable and the rate of annual compensation ~~increases and health care cost trend rates.~~increases.

Based upon the assumptions made, the investments made by the plans, overall conditions and movement in financial markets, life-spans of benefit recipients and other factors, annual expenses and recorded assets or liabilities of these defined benefit pension plans may change significantly from year to year.

The service cost component of the Company's net periodic benefit cost is included in Cost of Sales and Operating Expenses. All other components of net periodic benefit costs are included in Other (Income) Expenses, net on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income. See Note 8 –Retirement Plans for more information.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative instruments are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Any fair value changes are recorded in Net Income or Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss ("AOCI") as determined under accounting guidance that establishes criteria for designation and effectiveness of the hedging relationships.

The Company uses derivative instruments to manage its exposure to fluctuations in certain raw material commodity pricing, fluctuations in the cost of forecasted foreign currency transactions, and variability in interest rate exposure on floating rate borrowings. The majority of derivative instruments have been designated as cash flow ~~hedges (see also~~hedges. See Note ~~13).~~13 – Derivative Financial Instruments for more information.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and consideration of operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income

taxes are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The impact on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are provided to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. This requires management to make judgments and estimates regarding the amount and timing of the reversal of taxable temporary differences, expected future taxable income, and the impact of tax planning strategies.

Uncertainty exists regarding tax positions taken in previously filed tax returns which remain subject to examination, along with positions expected to be taken in future returns. The Company provides for unrecognized tax benefits, based on the technical merits, when it is more likely than not that an uncertain tax position will not be sustained upon examination. Adjustments are made to the uncertain tax positions when facts and circumstances change, such as the closing of a tax audit; changes in applicable tax laws, including tax case rulings and legislative guidance; or expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. See Note 11 – Income Taxes for more information.

Foreign Currency Translation

For those operations using a functional currency other than the US dollar, assets and liabilities are translated into US dollars at year-end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses are translated at weighted-average exchange rates. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of Shareholders' Equity.

Product Warranty Reserves

The Company maintains reserves for product warranty to cover the stated warranty periods for its products. Such reserves are established based on an evaluation of historical warranty experience and specific significant warranty matters when they become known and can reasonably be estimated. See Note 12 –Contingenciesfor more information.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Foreign currency translation adjustments, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments designated as hedges and pension and post retirement liability adjustments are included in Shareholders' Equity under AOCI.

The components of the ending balances of AOCI are as ~~follows (in millions):~~follows:


		2021		2020			2022		2021

Legal Claims and Contingent Liabilities

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and regulatory matters, the outcomes of which are subject to significant uncertainty and will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Management conducts regular reviews, including updates from legal counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. The Company records expenses and liabilities when the Company believes that an obligation of the Company or a subsidiary on a specific matter is probable and there is a basis to reasonably estimate the value of the obligation, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise in judgment. This methodology is used for legal claims that are filed against the Company or a subsidiary from time to time. The uncertainty that is associated with such matters frequently requires adjustments to the liabilities previously recorded. See Note 12 –Contingenciesfor more information.

Fair Values of Financial Instruments

The fair values of cash equivalents, term deposits, trade receivables and accounts payable approximate their carrying values due to the short period of time to maturity. The fair value of debt is estimated using discounted cash flows based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities and credit ratings as further described in Note 7.7 – Debt and Credit Facilities. The fair value of pension assets and derivative instruments is determined based on the methods disclosed in ~~Notes~~Note 8 - Retirement and ~~13.~~Post-Retirement Medical and Note 13 – Derivative Financial Instruments.

~~Recent Accounting Pronouncements~~

~~Recently Issued~~New Accounting Standards

New Accounting Standards Adopted as of January 1, 2023

In ~~October 2021,~~September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2022-04, Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50) Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. The ASU ~~2021-08,~~ requires that a buyer in a supplier finance program disclose sufficient information about the program to allow a user of financial statements to understand the program’s nature, activity during the period, changes from period to period, and potential magnitude. This ASU was effective January 1, 2023. The Company has evaluated the effect of adopting this accounting guidance and will include the new required disclosures in future filings as needed.

(4) Acquisitions and Divestitures

Altra Transaction

On October 26, 2022, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Altra Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Altra Industrial Motion Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Altra”), and Aspen Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, among other things and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of specified conditions, Merger Sub will merge (the “Altra Merger”) with and into Altra, with Altra surviving the Altra Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Altra Transaction”).

~~Business Combinations (Topic 805) Accounting~~

Pursuant to the Altra Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Altra Merger (the “Effective Time”), each of Altra’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Altra Common Stock”) (other than (i) any shares held by either the Company, Altra or Merger Sub, (ii) shares owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Altra or the Company, (iii) shares for ~~Contract Assets~~which appraisal rights have been properly demanded according to Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and ~~Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers~~(iv) restricted shares of Altra Common Stock granted under Altra’s 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan and subject to forfeiture conditions) will be converted into the right to receive $62.00 in cash, without interest (the “Altra Merger Consideration”). The ~~ASU improves~~Altra Merger Agreement generally provides that (1) each vested Altra stock option outstanding immediately prior to the ~~accounting for acquired revenue contracts~~Effective Time will be canceled and converted into a cash payment equal to the intrinsic value of such option based on the Altra Merger Consideration, (2) each unvested Altra stock option outstanding, immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be converted into an award of stock options with ~~customers~~respect to Common Stock with an intrinsic value equivalent to the intrinsic value of the Altra stock option based on the Altra Merger Consideration, (3) each unvested Altra restricted stock unit outstanding, as of the Effective Time, that is subject solely to time-based vesting conditions will be converted into an award of restricted stock units with respect to Common Stock with an equivalent value based on the Altra Merger Consideration on substantially similar terms and conditions, (4) each unvested award of Altra restricted shares will be converted into an award of restricted cash of equivalent value based on the Altra Merger Consideration on substantially similar terms and conditions and (5) each unvested Altra restricted stock unit outstanding, as of the Effective Time, that is subject to performance-based vesting conditions will be converted into an award of time-based restricted stock with an equivalent value based on the Altra Merger Consideration on substantially similar terms and conditions (with performance goals being deemed satisfied at specified levels).

The Company incurred transaction-related costs of approximately $14.7 million during fiscal 2022. These costs were associated with legal and professional services and were recognized as Operating expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income. In connection with the Altra Transaction, the Company has entered into certain financing arrangements, which are described in Note 7 – Debt and Bank Credit Facilities.

6570

~~ASU becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect of adopting this new accounting guidance.~~

~~Adopted Accounting Standards~~

~~In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12,~~ ~~Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes~~. The ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of Topic 740, and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The Company adopted the standard as of January 3, 2021 the beginning of fiscal 2021, with no material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,~~ ~~Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic 326)~~. The focus of this ASU is to require businesses to adjust their allowance for lifetime expected credit losses rather than incurred losses. It is believed that the change will result in more timely recognition of such losses. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein. The Company adopted the standard as of December 29, 2019, the beginning of fiscal 2020, under the modified retrospective approach. The Company recorded a $3.4 million increase in the allowance for credit losses and a $2.7 million net decrease to retained earnings as of December 29, 2019 for the cumulative effect of adopting ASU 2016-13.

~~In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases (Topic 842)~~. The core principle of ASU 2016-02 is that an entity should recognize right of use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities arising from an operating lease on its Balance Sheet. In accordance with that principle, ASU 2016-02 requires that a lessee recognize a liability to make lease payments, the lease liability, and a ROU asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset for the lease term. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee will depend on the lease classification as a finance or operating lease. In July 2018, the FASB amended its guidance by issuing ASU 2018-11 to provide an additional transition method, allowing a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings during the period of adoption. The Company adopted the standard as of December 30, 2018, the beginning of fiscal 2019, under the modified retrospective method. Comparative periods prior to the adoption of the standard have not been adjusted to give the effect to the standard.

The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the relief package within the new standard, which allows the Company to carryforward the historical lease accounting of expired or existing leases with respect to lease identification, lease classification and accounting treatment for initial direct costs as of the adoption date. The Company also elected the practical expedient related to lease versus non-lease components, allowing the Company to recognize lease and nonlease components as a single lease.

Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities of $93.0 million as of December 30, 2018. No cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings was recognized upon adoption of the new standard. The standard did not materially impact the Company's Consolidated Net Income and had no impact on Cash Flows. See Note 9 for additional disclosures.

~~In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13,~~ ~~Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) - Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement.~~ The ASU focuses on updates around disclosures of Level 3 fair value measurements and it presents modifications to current disclosure requirements. The additional requirements under this ASU include disclosure for the changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income ("OCI") held at the end of the reporting period and the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs. The ASU is also eliminating the disclosure requirement for the amount and reason for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurement, valuation processes for Level 3 measurements, and policy for timing of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy. In addition, the ASU modifies the disclosure requirements for investments that are valued based on net asset value. The amendments clarify that the measurement uncertainty disclosure is to communicate information about the uncertainty in measurement as of the reporting date. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods therein. The ASU requires prospective application for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the year of adoption for changes in unrealized gains and losses included in OCI, the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty. The Company adopted the standard as of December 29, 2019, the beginning of fiscal 2020, with no material impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14,~~ ~~Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20).~~ The ASU addresses modifications to the disclosure requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. Under ASU 2018-14 the disclosure requirements that can be removed are amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income expected to

be recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year, amount and timing of plan assets expected to be returned to the employer, and the effects of a one-percentage-point change in assumed health care cost trend rates on the aggregate of the service and interest cost components of net periodic benefit costs and benefit obligations for postretirement health care benefits. Additional disclosures are required for the weighted-average interest crediting rates for cash balance plans and other plans with promised interest crediting rates and an explanation for significant gains and losses related to the changes in the benefit obligation for the period. If a defined benefit pension plan has a projected benefit obligation greater than plan assets the projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets should be disclosed. The Company adopted the standard in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 on a retrospective basis for all years presented with no material impact to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statement.

~~In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference~~ ~~Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting~~. The ASU provides optional transition guidance, for a limited time, to companies that have contracts, hedging relationships or other transactions that reference the London Inter-bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate which is expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The amendments provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions if certain criteria are met. The amendments in this update are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, the Company adopted this standard prospectively and is applying those expedients that allow the Company to continue to assert that LIBOR-based interest remains probable, despite the sunset of LIBOR at the end of 2021 with no impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.

~~(4) Held For Sale, Divestitures and Acquisitions~~

~~Assets Held for Sale~~

As of January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, the Company presented $12.5 million and $9.1 million, respectively, of certain assets held for sale as the Company had both the intent and ability to sell these assets.

Pursuant to the Rexnord Transaction, (i) Zurn transferred to its then-subsidiary Land Newco, Inc. (“Land”) substantially all of the assets, and Land assumed substantially all of the liabilities, of the Rexnord PMC business (the “Reorganization”), (ii) after which all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Land (“Land common stock”) held by a subsidiary of Zurn were distributed in a series of distributions to Zurn’s stockholders (the “Distributions”, and the final distribution of Land common stock from Zurn to Zurn’s stockholders, which was made pro rata for no consideration, the “Spin-Off”) and (iii) immediately after the Spin-Off, a subsidiary of the Company ~~(“Merger Sub”)~~ merged with and into Land (the ~~“Merger”~~“Rexnord Merger”) and all shares of Land common stock (other than those held by Zurn, Land, the Company, ~~Merger Sub~~the Company's merger subsidiary or their respective subsidiaries) were converted as of the effective time of the Rexnord Merger (the “Effective Time”) into the right to receive 0.22296103 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company (“Company common stock”), as calculated in the Rexnord Merger Agreement.

As of the Effective Time, Land, which held the Rexnord PMC business, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Pursuant to the Rexnord Merger, the Company issued approximately 27,055,945 shares of Company common stock to holders of Land common stock, which represents approximately 39.9% of the approximately 67,756,732 outstanding shares of Company common stock immediately following the Effective Time. In addition, holders of record of Company common stock as of October 1, 2021 received $6.99 per share of Company common stock pursuant to a previously announced special dividend in connection with the ~~Transactions~~Rexnord Transaction (the “Special Dividend”).

The current chief executive officer of the Company continued as the chief executive officer of the combined company after the Rexnord Transaction and a majority of the senior management of the Company immediately prior the consummation of the Rexnord Transaction remained executive officers of the Company immediately after the Rexnord Transaction. The Company's management determined that the Company is the accounting acquirer in the Rexnord Transaction based on the facts and circumstances noted within this section and other relevant factors. As such, the Company applied the acquisition method of accounting to the identifiable assets and liabilities of Rexnord PMC business, which have been measured at estimated fair value as of the date of the business combination.

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, the Company has entered into certain financing arrangements, which are described in Note 7.7 – Debt and Bank Credit Facilities.

The tax matters agreement the Company entered into in connection with the Rexnord Transaction imposes certain restrictions on the Company, Land and Zurn during the two-year period following the Spin-Off, subject to certain exceptions, with respect

to actions that could cause the Reorganization and the Distributions to fail to qualify for the intended tax treatment. As a result of these restrictions, the Company's and Land’s ability to engage in certain transactions, such as the issuance or purchase of stock or certain business combinations, may be limited.

The total consideration transferred ~~for~~in connection with the ~~acquisition of Land~~Rexnord Transaction was approximately $4.0 ~~billion subject to finalization of purchase accounting and working capital adjustments.~~billion.

Purchase Price Allocation

The Rexnord PMC business’s assets and liabilities were measured at estimated fair values at October 4, 2021, primarily using Level 3 inputs. Estimates of fair value represent management’s best estimate of assumptions about future events and uncertainties, including significant judgments related to future cash flows, discount rates, competitive trends, margin and revenue growth assumptions including royalty rates and customer attrition rates and others. Inputs used were generally obtained from historical data supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions and growth rates expected as of the acquisition date.

Summary of Significant Fair Value Methods

The methods used to determine the fair value of significant identifiable assets and liabilities included in the allocation of purchase price are discussed below.

Inventories

Acquired inventory was comprised of finished goods, work in process and raw materials. The fair value of finished goods was calculated as the estimated selling price, adjusted for costs of the selling effort and a reasonable profit allowance relating to the selling effort. The fair value of work in process inventory was primarily calculated as the estimated selling price, adjusted for estimated costs to complete the manufacturing, estimated costs of the selling effort, as well as a reasonable profit margin on the remaining manufacturing and selling effort. The fair value of raw materials and supplies was determined based on replacement cost which approximates historical carrying value.

Property, Plant and Equipment

The preliminary fair value of Property, Plant, and Equipment was determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

The fair value and weighted average useful life of the identifiable intangible assets are as follows ~~(in millions)~~:

7073


	Fair Value		Weighted Average Useful Life (Years)
Trademarks(1)	$	225.0	10
Customer Relationships(2)	1,519.0		17
Technology(3)	87.0		12
Total Identifiable Intangible Assets	$	1,831.0

The fair value estimates for identifiable intangible assets are preliminary and are based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset.

(1) The Rexnord PMC business Trademarks were valued using the relief from royalty method, which considers both the market approach and the income approach.

(2) The fair value of Customer Relationships was valued using a multi-period excess earnings method, a form of the income approach, which incorporates the estimated future cash flows to be generated from the Rexnord PMC business's existing customer base.

(3) The Rexnord PMC business Technology were valued using the relief from royalty method, which considers both the market approach and the income approach.

The intangible assets related to definite-lived customer relationships, trademarks and technology are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which had estimated weighted-average useful lives of 17 years, 10 years and 12 years, respectively, at acquisition.

The Company believes that the amounts of purchased intangible assets recorded represent the preliminary fair values and approximates the amounts a market participant would pay for these intangible assets as of the acquisition date.

Leases, including right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities

Lease liabilities were measured as of the acquisition date at the present value of future minimum lease payments over the remaining lease term and the incremental borrowing rate of the Company as if the acquired leases were new leases as of the acquisition date. ROU assets recorded within “Operating Lease Assets” are equal to the amount of the lease liability at the acquisition date adjusted for any off-market terms of the lease. The remaining lease term was based on the remaining term at the acquisition date plus any renewal or extension options that the Company is reasonably certain will be exercised.

~~Pension~~Purchase Price Allocation

The Rexnord PMC business’s assets and ~~Other Post Retirement Benefits~~liabilities were measured at estimated fair values at October 4, 2021, primarily using Level 3 inputs. Estimates of fair value represent management’s best estimate of assumptions about future events and uncertainties, including significant judgments related to future cash flows, discount rates, competitive trends, margin and revenue growth assumptions including royalty rates and customer attrition rates and others. Inputs used were generally obtained from historical data supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions and growth rates expected as of the acquisition date.

As of December 31, 2022, the valuation process to determine the fair values of the net assets acquired during the measurement period was complete. The Company estimated the fair value of net assets acquired based on information available during the measurement period.

Summary of Significant Fair Value Methods

The methods used to determine the fair value of significant identifiable assets and liabilities included in the allocation of purchase price are discussed below.

Property, Plant and Equipment

The preliminary fair value of Property, Plant, and Equipment was determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset.

Identifiable Intangible Assets

The ~~Rexnord PMC business recognized a pretax net liability representing the net funded status~~fair value and weighted average useful life of the ~~Rexnord PMC business’s defined-benefit pension and other postretirement benefit (“OPEB”) plans. See Note 8~~identifiable intangible assets are as follows:~~for further information on the pension and OPEB arrangements.~~

~~Long-Term Debt~~

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, the Company entered into certain financing arrangements as indicated in Note 7. The proceeds of the Land Term Facility, $487.0 million, were drawn by Land in a single drawing to fund a payment from Land to a subsidiary of Zurn in connection with the Rexnord Transaction.

~~The fair value for long term debt was determined based on the total indebtedness as the debt consummated at the time of closing of the acquisition.~~

~~Deferred Income Tax Assets and Liabilities~~

The acquisition was structured as a merger and therefore, the Company assumed the historical tax basis of the Rexnord PMC business’s assets and liabilities. The deferred income tax assets and liabilities include the expected future federal, state, and foreign tax consequences associated with temporary differences between the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the respective tax bases. Tax rates utilized in calculating deferred income taxes generally represent the enacted statutory tax rates at the effective date of the acquisition in the jurisdictions in which legal title of the underlying asset or liability resides. See Note 11 for further information related to income taxes.

~~Noncontrolling Interests~~

~~Goodwill~~

The excess of the consideration for the acquisition over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is attributable to expected synergies and expanded market opportunities from combining the Company’s operations with those of the Rexnord PMC business. The goodwill created in the acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

~~Transaction Costs~~

~~The Company incurred transaction-related costs of approximately $64.4 million for the year ended January 1, 2022.~~ ~~These costs were associated with legal and professional services and were recognized as Operating~~ ~~expenses~~ ~~in our Consolidated Statements of Income.~~

Goodwill

The ~~excess of purchase price over estimated fair value of net assets acquired is assigned to goodwill.~~

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company recorded goodwill impairment of $33.0 million in its global industrial motors reporting unit. The global industrial motors reporting unit had goodwill of $80.1 million as of January 1, 2022 and is included in our Industrial Systems segment. Some of the key considerations used in the impairment testing included (i) market pricing of guideline publicly traded companies (ii) cost of capital, including the risk-free interest rate, and (iii) recent historical and projected operating results of the subject reporting unit. There is inherent uncertainty included in the assumptions used in goodwill impairment testing. A change to any of the assumptions could lead to a future impairment that could be material.

(8) Retirement ~~and Post-Retirement Health Care~~ Plans

Retirement Plans

The Company sponsors pension and other post-retirement benefit plans for certain associates. Most of the Company's associates are accumulating retirement income benefits through defined contribution plans. The majority of Company's defined benefit pension plans covering the Company's domestic associates have been closed to new associates and frozen for existing associates, however certain employees represented by collective bargaining continue to earn benefits. Certain foreign associates

are covered by government sponsored plans in the countries in which they are employed. The defined contribution plans provide for Company contributions based, depending on the plan, upon one or more of participant contributions, service and profits. Company contributions to domestic defined contribution plans totaled $16.2 million, $9.8 million ~~$7.6 million~~ and ~~$8.9~~$7.6 million in fiscal 2022, fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, ~~and fiscal 2019,~~ respectively. Company contributions to non-US defined contribution plans were $7.8 million, $5.7 million ~~$5.5 million~~ and ~~$10.6~~$5.5 million in fiscal 2022, fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, ~~and fiscal 2019,~~ respectively.

Benefits provided under defined benefit pension plans are based, depending on the plan, on associates' average earnings and years of credited service, or a benefit multiplier times years of service. Funding of these qualified defined benefit pension plans is in accordance with federal laws and regulations. The actuarial valuation measurement date for pension plans is the calendar year end of each year.

~~In 2021,~~During 2022, the ~~Company's~~Company maintained its dynamic de-risking investment strategy ~~shifted from achieving moderately aggressive growth to implementing a dynamic de-risking strategy~~implemented during 2021 designed to allow the plans to attain and/or maintain fully funded status levels while reducing volatility. Accordingly, allocation targets have been established to fit this strategy ~~with fixed income allocations increasing~~ in response to increased funded ratio thresholds along a glidepath. The overall fixed income portfolio ~~shall be invested~~will increase to meet the allocation targets in such a manner that its interest rate sensitivity correlates highly with that of the liabilities of the plans, and other assets classes are intended to provide additional return with associated higher levels of risk. The long-term rate of return assumptions consider historic returns and volatilities adjusted for changes in overall economic conditions that may affect future returns and a weighting of each investment class. ~~Prior~~During 2022, the Company transitioned legacy Rexnord PMC’s pension plan to ~~2021,~~align with the ~~Company's investment~~Company’s other pension plan’s derisking strategy ~~for its defined benefit pension plans~~at similar funded status levels, which is expected to ~~achieve moderately aggressive growth, earning a long-term rate of return sufficient to allow the plans to reach fully funded status.

Pension Assets

The Company classifies its investments into Level 1, which refers to securities valued using quoted prices from active markets for identical assets, Level 2, which refers to securities not traded on an active market but for which observable market inputs are readily available, and Level 3, which refers to securities valued based on significant unobservable inputs. Mutual funds are valued at the unadjusted quoted market prices for the securities. Real estate interest values are determined using model-based techniques that include relative value analysis and discounted cash flow techniques. Common collective trust funds are valued based on the net asset value (“NAV”) provided by the administrator of the fund as a practical expedient to estimate fair value. The NAV is based on the value of the underlying assets owned by the fund, minus its liabilities, and then divided by the number of shares outstanding. Investments in units of collective trust funds and short-term investment funds, comprised of cash and money market funds, are valued at their respective published market prices as reported by the funds daily. Certain international plans hold insurance contracts. The fair value of these contracts is calculated by projecting expected future cash flows from the contract and discounting them to present value based on current market rates. The contracts are included within Level 3 of the hierarchy as the assumptions used to project expected future cash flows are based on actuarial estimates and are unobservable.

The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit pension plans was ~~$580.9~~$434.8 million and ~~$292.8~~$580.9 million as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 and January ~~2, 2021,~~1, 2022, respectively.

~~The~~Defined pension plans with accumulated benefit ~~obligation exceeded~~obligations in excess of plan assets ~~for all pension plans~~ as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 ~~and January 2, 2021.~~were as follows:


	2022		2021
Projected Benefit Obligation	$	407.0	$	554.9
Accumulated Benefit Obligation	405.1		548.6
Fair Value of Plan Assets	310.9		445.8

Defined pension plans with projected benefit obligations in excess of plan assets as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 were as follows:

Projected Benefit Obligation	$	408.6	$	554.9
Accumulated Benefit Obligation	406.4		548.6
Fair Value of Plan Assets	312.3		445.8

2021 2020
Discount Rate 2.7% 2.6%


	2022	2021
Discount Rate	5.2%	2.7%

The objective of the discount rate assumption is to reflect the rate at which the pension benefits could be effectively settled. In making the determination, the Company takes into account the timing and amount of benefits that would be available under the plans. The methodology for selecting the discount rate was to match the plan's cash flows to that of a theoretical bond portfolio yield curve.

Certain of the Company's defined benefit pension plan obligations are based on years of service rather than on projected compensation percentage increases. For those plans that use compensation increases in the calculation of benefit obligations and net periodic pension cost, the Company used an assumed rate of compensation increase of 2.8% and 3.0% for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, ~~and January 2, 2021.~~

respectively.

(9) Leases

The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses/distribution centers, office space, machinery, equipment, IT assets, and vehicles. If the contract provides the Company the right to substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset, it is considered to be or contain a lease. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the expected lease term.

As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated based upon the sovereign treasury rate for the currency in which the lease liability is denominated when the Company takes possession of the leased asset, adjusted for various factors, such as term and internal credit spread. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentive and initial direct costs incurred.

Leases entered into may include 1one or more options to renew. The renewal terms can extend the lease term from one to twenty-five years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's sole discretion. Renewal option periods are included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability when the exercise is reasonably certain to occur. Some leases include options to terminate the lease upon breach of contract and are remeasured at that point in time.

The depreciable life of leased assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.

Some of the Company's lease agreements include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation or are based on an index rate. These increases are reflected as variable lease payments and are included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Operating leases are included in the following asset and liability accounts on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet: Operating Lease Assets, Current Operating Lease Liabilities and Noncurrent Operating Lease Liabilities. ROU assets and liabilities arising from finance leases are included in the following asset and liability accounts on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet: Net Property, Plant and Equipment, Current Maturities of Long-Term Debt and Long-Term Debt.

The total income tax benefit recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income for share-based compensation expense was $5.4 million, $6.0 million ~~$2.2 million~~ and ~~$3.1~~$2.2 million in fiscal years 2022, 2021 ~~2020~~ and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. The Company recognizes compensation expense on grants of share-based compensation awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each award. The total fair value of shares and options vested was $25.6 million, $26.1 million ~~$7.7 million~~ and ~~$23.0~~$7.7 million in fiscal years 2022, 2021 and 2020, ~~and 2019,~~ respectively. On October 10, 2018, the Company entered into a retirement agreement with the prior CEO resulting in the modification of the prior CEO's unvested awards. The Company expensed the modified awards over the modified service term. The modification increased the amount of unrecognized compensation cost and reduced the weighted average period in which the Company recognized compensation cost. On December 27, 2019, the Company entered into a retirement agreement with the COO resulting in the modification of certain of the COO's unvested awards. The Company recognized the modified award values over the modified service term. The modification increased the amount of unrecognized compensation cost and reduced the weighted average period in which the Company recognized the unrecognized compensation cost.

Total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards was approximately ~~$30.6~~$27.4 million, net of estimated forfeitures, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately ~~1.7~~1.8 years as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022.

During 2018, the Company's shareholders approved the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan ("2018 Plan"). The 2018 Plan ~~authorizes~~authorized the issuance of 2.1 million shares of common stock, plus ~~the number~~1.5 million of shares reserved under the prior 2013 Equity Incentive Plan that ~~are~~were not the subject of outstanding awards for equity-based awards and ~~terminates~~terminated any further grants under prior equity plans. Approximately ~~2.7~~2.3 million shares were available for future grant or payment under the 2018 Plans as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022.

Options and Stock Appreciation Rights

The Company uses several forms of share-based incentive awards including non-qualified stock options and stock settled stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). SARs are the right to receive stock in an amount equal to the appreciation in value of a share of stock over the base price per share. Shares granted prior to fiscal 2020 generally vest over five years on the anniversary date while shares granted in fiscal 2020 and after generally vest over three years on the anniversary date of the grant date. Generally all grants expire 10 years from the grant date. All grants are made at prices equal to the fair market value of the stock on the grant date. For fiscal years ended December 31, 2022, January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, ~~and December 28, 2019,~~ expired and canceled shares were immaterial.

The table below presents share-based compensation activity for the fiscal years ended 2022, 2021 ~~2020~~ and ~~2019 (in millions):~~2020:

The weighted average assumptions used in the Company's Black-Scholes valuation related to grants for options and SARs were as follows:


		2021	2020	2019		2022	2021	2020
Per Share Weighted Average Fair Value of Grants	Per Share Weighted Average Fair Value of Grants	$25.97	$21.23	$20.84	Per Share Weighted Average Fair Value of Grants	$42.21	$25.97	$21.23

Expected Dividend Yield	Expected Dividend Yield	0.9%	1.4%	1.5%	Expected Dividend Yield	0.9%	0.9%	1.4%

The average risk-free interest rate is based on US Treasury security rates in effect as of the grant date. The expected dividend yield is based on the projected annual dividend as a percentage of the estimated market value of the Company's common stock as of the grant date. The Company estimated the expected volatility using a weighted average of daily historical volatility of the Company's stock price over the expected term of the award. The Company estimated the expected term using historical data.

The amount of options and SARs expected to vest is materially consistent with those outstanding and not yet exercisable.

Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units

Restricted stock awards ("RSAs") and restricted stock units ("RSUs") consist of shares or the rights to shares of the Company's stock. The awards are restricted such that they are subject to substantial risk of forfeiture and to restrictions on their sale or other transfer. As defined in the individual grant agreements, acceleration of vesting may occur under a change in control, or death, disability or normal retirement of the grantee.

Following is the summary of RSAs activity for fiscal ~~2021:~~2022:


		Shares	Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)		Shares	Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)

RSAs vest on the one year anniversary of the grant date, provided the holder of the shares is continuously employed by or in the service of the Company until the vesting date. Compensation expense recognized related to the RSAs was $1.4 million for fiscal 2022 and $1.2 million for fiscal 2021 ~~2020~~ and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

As of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022, there was $0.5 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSAs that is expected to be recognized as a charge to earnings over a weighted average period of ~~0.5~~0.4 years.

Performance Share Units

Performance share unit awards ("PSUs") consist of shares or the rights to shares of the Company's stock which are awarded to associates of the Company. These shares are payable upon the determination that the Company achieved certain established performance targets and can range from 0% to 200% of the targeted payout based on the actual results. PSUs have a performance period of 3 years, vest three years from the grant date and are issued at a performance target of 100%. The PSUs have performance criteria based on a return on invested capital metric or they have performance criteria using returns relative to the Company's peer group. As set forth in the individual grant agreements, acceleration of vesting may occur under a change in control, death or disability. There are no voting rights with these instruments until vesting occurs and a share of stock is issued. Some of the PSU awards are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation method as of the grant date while others are valued using the closing market price less net present value of dividends as of the grant date depending on the performance criteria for the award.

The assumptions used in the Company's Monte Carlo simulation related to grants for performance share units were as follows:


		January 1, 2022	January 2, 2021	December 28, 2019		December 31, 2022	January 1, 2022	January 2, 2021
Risk-free interest rate	Risk-free interest rate	0.2%	1.4%	2.3%	Risk-free interest rate	1.8%	0.2%	1.4%
Expected life (years)	Expected life (years)	3.0	3.0	3.0	Expected life (years)	3.0	3.0	3.0
Expected volatility	Expected volatility	37.0%	24.0%	25.0%	Expected volatility	38.0%	37.0%	24.0%
Expected dividend yield	Expected dividend yield	0.9%	1.4%	1.5%	Expected dividend yield	—%	0.9%	1.4%

Following is the summary of PSUs activity for fiscal ~~2021:~~2022:


		Shares	Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)		Shares	Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)
Unvested PSUs as of January 2, 2021		87,522	$	97.59	1.8

Unvested PSUs as of December 31, 2022						Unvested PSUs as of December 31, 2022	107,665	$	131.07	1.8

The weighted average grant date fair value of awards granted was $151.27, $120.19 ~~$117.63~~ and ~~$85.54~~$117.63 in fiscal years 2022, 2021 ~~2020~~ and ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

Compensation expense for awards granted are recognized based on the Monte Carlo simulation value or the expected payout ratio depending upon the performance criterion for the award, net of estimated forfeitures. Compensation expense recognized related to PSUs was $4.7 million, $8.4 million ~~$1.4 million~~ and ~~$2.9~~$1.4 million for fiscal 2022, 2021 ~~2020~~ and ~~2019,~~2021, respectively. $4.3 million of compensation expense recognized in fiscal 2021 related to PSUs vesting upon consummation of the Rexnord Transaction. Total unrecognized compensation expense for all PSUs granted as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 was ~~$4.3~~$6.7 million and it is expected to be recognized as a charge to earnings over a weighted average period of ~~1.6~~1.8 years. ~~$4.3 million of compensation expense recognized in fiscal 2021 related to PSUs vesting upon consummation of the Rexnord Transaction as discussed below.~~

~~Rexnord Transaction~~

Certain outstanding equity-based awards held by employees of the Rexnord PMC business that related to shares of Zurn common stock were replaced by equity-based awards of the Company relating to shares of Company common stock with substantially similar terms and conditions, except that Zurn accelerated the vesting and settlement of most of the PSUs held by Rexnord PMC business employees prior to the consummation of the Rexnord Transaction. The remaining PSUs relating to shares of Zurn common stock were replaced by RSUs relating to shares of Company common stock subject to substantially the same terms and conditions as the PSUs other than performance goals, which were deemed satisfied in connection with the Transaction. A portion of the fair value of the Rexnord PMC business’s equity-based awards issued represents consideration transferred, while a portion represents future compensation expense based on the vesting terms of the equity-based awards. The amount attributable to consideration transferred for pre-combination services was calculated based on the ratio of the pre-combination service period (grant date until closing date) to the longer of the original total service period or the modified service period, if any. The aggregate fair value of outstanding awards was reduced to reflect an estimate of future forfeitures. As the Special Dividend was paid pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement; holders of Company equity-based awards outstanding after the Merger (including those granted in connection with the Merger to former holders of Rexnord PMC business equity-based awards) were kept whole pursuant to the existing anti-dilution provisions in the applicable plan documents. In connection with the Special Dividend, outstanding equity-based awards relating to Company common stock were adjusted in accordance with the adjustment provisions of the applicable Company equity incentive plan documents to increase the number of shares subject to such awards and, in the case of SARs, to adjust the strike price per share, in each case to preserve the intrinsic value of such awards.

Potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in income tax expense.

The Company had approximately $1.2 million, $1.3 million ~~$2.7 million~~ and ~~$2.3~~$2.7 million of accrued interest as of December 31, 2022, January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021, ~~and December 28, 2019,~~ respectively.

Due to statute expirations, approximately ~~$2.2~~$1.4 million of the unrecognized tax benefits, including accrued interest, could reasonably change in the coming year.

With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to US federal and state/local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to ~~2018,~~2019, and the Company is no longer subject to non-US income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2015. The Company is under audit in Italy and Germany for tax periods between 2015 – 2018 related to Rexnord PMC business entities arising before the Rexnord Transaction. The Company has been indemnified by Zurn for any future liability arising from these audits. Any other liabilities arising from tax years before the Rexnord Transaction relating to the Rexnord PMC business entities would be similarly indemnified.2017.

As of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately ~~$8.8~~$7.6 million of tax effected net operating losses in various jurisdictions with a portion expiring over a period of up to 15 years and the remaining without expiration. As of January ~~2, 2021,~~1, 2022, the Company had approximately ~~$9.2~~$8.8 million of tax effected net operating losses in various jurisdictions with a portion expiring over a period up to 15 years and the remaining without expiration.

Valuation allowances totaling ~~$5.3~~$5.2 million and ~~$7.4~~$5.3 million as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 and January ~~2, 2021,~~1, 2022, respectively, have been established for deferred income tax assets primarily related to certain subsidiary loss carryforwards that may not be realized. Realization of the net deferred income tax assets is dependent on generating sufficient taxable income prior to their expiration. Although realization is not assured, management believes it is more-likely-than-not that the net deferred income tax assets will be realized. The amount of the net deferred income tax assets considered realizable, however, could change in the near term if future taxable income during the carryforward period fluctuates. ~~The Company revalued its valuation allowance calculations and policies in relation to the Rexnord Transaction and released a net valuation allowance of $3.1 million.~~

The Company has been granted tax holidays for some of its Chinese subsidiaries. The majority of these tax holidays ~~will expire~~expired at the end of 2022. All tax holidays will be renewed subject to certain conditions with which the Company expects to comply. In ~~2021,~~2022, these holidays decreased the Provision for Income Taxes by ~~$4.2~~$4.3 million.

The Company continues to treat approximately ~~$169.9~~$261.1 million of earnings from certain foreign entities as permanently reinvested and has not recorded a deferred tax liability for the local withholding taxes of approximately ~~$17.0~~$25.5 million on those earnings. The Company evaluated the permanent reinvestment assertion related to the Rexnord PMC business and is not making an assertion for the taxes associated with the repatriation of any Rexnord PMC business non-U.S. earnings.~~A $5.9 million deferred tax liability with no effective rate related to these earnings was included in the net identifiable assets acquired from the Rexnord Transaction.~~

(12) Contingencies

~~NaN~~One of the Company's subsidiaries that it acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units manufactured and sold in high volumes by a third party. These ventilation units are subject to product safety requirements and other potential regulation of their performance by government agencies such as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”). The claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. The Company has recorded an estimated liability for incurred claims. Based on the current facts, the Company cannot assure that these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its subsidiary's financial condition. The Company's subsidiary cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these claims, the nature or extent of any CPSC or other remedial actions, if any, that the Company's subsidiary may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field, or the costs that may be incurred, some of which could be significant.

As a result of the Company's acquisition of the Rexnord PMC business, it is entitled to indemnification from third parties to agreements with the Rexnord PMC business against certain contingent liabilities of the Rexnord PMC business, including certain pre-closing environmental liabilities.

The Company believes that, pursuant to the transaction documents related to the Rexnord PMC business' acquisition of the Stearns business from Invensys plc ("Invensys"), Invensys (now known as Schneider Electric) is obligated to defend and indemnify us with respect to the matters described below relating to the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site and to various asbestos claims. The indemnity obligations relating to the matters described below are subject, together with indemnity obligations relating to other matters, to an overall dollar cap equal to the purchase price, which is an amount in excess of ~~$900~~$900.0 million. In the event that the Company is unable to recover from Invensys with respect to the matters below, it may be entitled to

indemnification from Zurn, subject to certain limitations. The following paragraphs summarize the most significant actions and proceedings:

•In 2002, the Company's subsidiary, Rexnord Industries, LLC ("Rexnord Industries") was named as a potentially responsible party ("PRP"), together with at least ten other companies, at the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site, Downers Grove, DuPage County, Illinois (the "Site"), by the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("USEPA"), and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency ("IEPA"). Rexnord Industries' Downers Grove property is situated within the Ellsworth Industrial Complex. The USEPA and IEPA allege there have been one or more releases or threatened releases of chlorinated solvents and other hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants at the Site, allegedly including but not limited to a release or threatened release on or from Rexnord Industries' property. The relief sought by the USEPA and IEPA includes further investigation and potential remediation of the Site and reimbursement of USEPA's past costs. In early 2020, Rexnord Industries entered into an administrative order with the USEPA to do remediation work on its Downers Grove property. ~~Rexnord Industries' allocated share~~The soil excavation work and transporting and disposing of ~~past~~the excavated material was completed in October 2020. An AS/SVE system construction was completed in February 2022 and ~~future costs related~~is anticipated to ~~the Site, including~~operate for ~~investigation and/or remediation, could be significant.~~three years. All previously pending property damage and personal injury lawsuits against Rexnord Industries related to the Site have been settled or dismissed. Pursuant to its indemnity obligation, Invensys continues to defend Rexnord Industries in known matters related to the Site, including the costs of the remediation work pursuant to the 2020 administrative order, and has paid 100% of the costs to date. This indemnification right would not protect Rexnord Industries against liabilities related to environmental conditions that were unknown to Invensys at the time of the acquisition of the Stearns business from Invensys.

•Multiple lawsuits (with approximately ~~300~~350 claimants) are pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain brakes and clutches previously manufactured by the Rexnord PMC business' Stearns brand of brakes and clutches and/or its predecessor owners. Invensys and FMC, prior owners of the Stearns business, have paid 100% of the costs to date related to the Stearns lawsuits. Similarly, the Rexnord PMC business' Prager subsidiary is the subject of claims by multiple claimants alleging personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in a product allegedly manufactured by Prager. However, all these claims are currently on the Texas Multi-district Litigation inactive docket, and the Company does not believe that they will become active in the future. To date, the Rexnord PMC business' insurance providers have paid 100% of the costs related to the Prager asbestos matters. We believe that the combination of the Company's insurance coverage and the Invensys indemnity obligations will cover any future costs of these matters.

In connection with the Company's acquisition of the of Rexnord PMC business, transaction documents related to the Rexnord PMC business’ acquisition of The Falk Corporation from Hamilton Sundstrand Corporation were assigned to Rexnord Industries, and provide Rexnord Industries with indemnification against certain products related asbestos exposure liabilities. The Company believes that, pursuant to such indemnity obligations, Hamilton Sundstrand is obligated to defend and indemnify

Rexnord Industries with respect to asbestos claims described below, and that, with respect to these claims, such indemnity obligations are not subject to any time or dollar limitations.

The following paragraph summarizes the most significant actions and proceedings for which Hamilton Sundstrand has accepted responsibility:

The Company is, from time to time, party to litigation and other legal or regulatory proceedings that arise in the normal course of its business operations and the outcomes of which are subject to significant uncertainty, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, intellectual property, employment and other litigation matters. The Company's products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject the Company to claims that the use of its products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. Many of these matters will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Management conducts regular reviews, including updates from legal counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise in judgment. The Company accrues for exposures in amounts that it believes are adequate, and the Company does not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit individually or collectively will have a material effect on the Company's financial position, its results of operations or its cash flows.

The Company recognizes the cost associated with its standard warranty on its products at the time of sale. The amount recognized is based on historical experience. The following is a reconciliation of the changes in accrued warranty costs for fiscal ~~2021~~2022 and fiscal ~~2020 (in millions):~~2021:

These liabilities are included in Other Accrued Expenses and Other Noncurrent Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

(13) Derivative Financial Instruments

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

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

The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company designates commodity forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases of commodities, currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency cash flows and interest rate swaps as cash flow

hedges of forecasted ~~LIBOR-based~~SOFR-based interest payments. There were no significant collateral deposits on derivative financial instruments as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 or January ~~2, 2021.~~1, 2022.

Cash flow hedges

The effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or changes in market value of derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized in current earnings.

As of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, ~~and January 2, 2021,~~ the Company had ~~$5.6~~$11.9 million and ~~$3.7~~$5.6 million, net of tax, of derivative gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings.

The Company had the following commodity forward contracts outstanding (with maturities extending through ~~June 2023)~~May 2024) to hedge forecasted purchases of commodities (notional amounts expressed in terms of the dollar value of the hedged ~~item (in millions):~~item:

The Company entered into 2two receive variable/pay-fixed forward starting non-amortizing interest rate swaps in June 2020, with a total notional amount of $250.0 ~~million.~~million which were subsequently terminated in March 2022. The cash proceeds of $16.2 million received to settle the terminated swaps will be recognized as a reduction of interest expense via the effective interest rate method through July 2025 when the terminated swaps were scheduled to expire. The Company entered into two additional receive variable/pay-fixed forward starting non-amortizing interest rate swaps in May 2022, with a total notional amount of $250.0 million to hedge the floating rate interest of the Term Facility. These swaps ~~became effective July 2021 and~~ will expire in ~~July 2025.~~March 2027.

(14) Fair Value

Fair value is defined as 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 (exit price). The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy:

Level 1

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or

Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or

Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability

Level 3

Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

~~103~~104

The Company uses the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table sets forth the Company's financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, ~~and January 2, 2021, respectively (in millions):~~respectively:

Level 1 fair value measurements for assets held in a Rabbi Trust are unadjusted quoted prices.

Level 2 fair value measurements for derivative assets and liabilities are measured using quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities. Interest rate swaps are valued based on the discounted cash flows using the ~~LIBOR~~SOFR forward yield curve for an instrument with similar contractual terms. Foreign currency forwards are valued based on exchange rates quoted by domestic and foreign banks for similar instruments. Commodity forwards are valued based on observable market transactions of forward commodity prices. Debt instruments are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for instruments with similar contractual terms.

The Company did not change its valuation techniques during fiscal ~~2021.~~2022.

(15) Restructuring Activities

The Company incurred restructuring and restructuring-related costs on projects during fiscal 2022, 2021 ~~2020~~ and ~~2019.~~2020. Restructuring costs include associate termination and plant relocation costs. Restructuring-related costs include costs directly associated with actions resulting from the Company's simplification initiatives, such as asset write-downs or accelerated depreciation due to shortened useful lives in connection with site closures, discretionary employment benefit costs and other facility rationalization costs. Restructuring costs for associate termination expenses are generally required to be accrued over the associate's remaining service period while restructuring costs for plant relocation costs and restructuring-related costs are generally required to be expensed as incurred.

ITEM 9A - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(d) and 15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the year ended January 1, 2022. Consistent with guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from management’s report on internal control over financial

~~105~~

reporting in the year of acquisition, management excluded an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting related to the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses. We acquired the Rexnord PMC business on October 4, 2021, and the Automation Solutions business on November 23, 2021. Together, the Rexnord PMC and Automation Solutions businesses represented 11% of our consolidated total assets (excluding goodwill and intangibles which were included in management's assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of January 1, 2022) and 9% of the consolidated total revenues as of and for the year ended January 1,December 31, 2022. Based upon their evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~January 1,~~December 31, 2022 to ensure that (a) information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and (b) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As mentioned above, on October 4, 2021, we completed the acquisition of the Rexnord PMC business, and on November 23, 2021, we completed the acquisition of the Automation Solutions business.
