on the product line. Hubbell cannot specify with precision the number of competitors in each product category or their relative market position. However, some of its competitors are larger companies with substantial financial and other resources. Hubbell considers product performance, reliability, quality and technological innovation as important factors relevant to all areas of its business, and considers its reputation as a manufacturer of quality products to be an important factor in its business. In addition, product price, service levels and other factors can affect Hubbell’s ability to compete.
Research, development and engineering expenditures represent costs incurred in the experimental or laboratory sense aimed at discoveryand/or application of new knowledge in developing a new product or process, or in bringing about significant improvement in an existing product or process. Research, development and engineering expenses are recorded as a component of Cost of goods sold. Expenses for research, development and engineering were less than 1% of Cost of goods sold for each of the years 2005, 20062008, 2007 and 2007.2006.
We use a variety of raw materials in the production of our products including steel, brass, copper, aluminum, bronze, zinc, nickel and plastics. We have multiple sources of supply for these products and are not dependent on any single supplier. However, significant shortages of these materials or price increases could increase our operating costs and adversely impact the competitive positions of our products which would directly impact our results of operations.
We continue to increase the amount of product materials, components and finished goods which are sourced from low cost countries including Mexico, the People’s Republic of China, and other countries in Asia. A political disruption or significant changes related to transportation from one of these countries could affect the availability of these materials and components which would directly impact our results of operations.
overhead, maintenance and training costs, as well as the cost of software that does not add functionality to the existing system, are expensed as incurred. The cost of internally developed software is amortized on a straight-line basis over appropriate periods, generally five years. The unamortized balance of internally developed software is included in Intangible assets and other in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Employee Benefits Costs and Funding
We sponsor domestic and foreign defined benefit pension, defined contribution and other postretirement plans. Major assumptions used in the accounting for these employee benefit plans include the discount rate, expected return on the pension fund assets, rate of increase in employee compensation levels and health care cost increase projections. These assumptions are determined based on Company data and appropriate market indicators, and are evaluated each year as of the plans’ measurement date. Further discussion on the assumptions used in 20072008 and 20062007 are included above under “Pension Funding Status” and in Note 11 — Retirement Benefits in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Taxes
We account for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” and FASB Interpretation No. (“FIN”) 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109”. SFAS No. 109 requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recognized using enacted tax rates for the effect of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of recorded assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 109 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The factors used to assess the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets are the forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the net deferred tax assets. Failure to achieve forecasted taxable income can affect the ultimate realization of net deferred tax assets.
We operate within multiple taxing jurisdictions and are subject to audit in these jurisdictions. The IRS and other tax authorities routinely review our tax returns. These audits can involve complex issues, which may require an extended period of time to resolve. In accordance with FIN 48, effective January 1, 2007, the Company records uncertain tax positions only when it has determined that it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The Company uses the criteria established in FIN 48 to determine whether an item meets the definition of more-likely-than-not. The Company’s policy is to recognize these tax benefits when the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, when the statute of limitations has expired or upon settlement. In management’s opinion, adequate provision has been made for potential adjustments arising from any examinations.
Contingent Liabilities
We are subject to proceedings, lawsuits, and other claims or uncertainties related to environmental, legal, product and other matters. We routinely assess the likelihood of an adverse judgment or outcome to these matters, as well as the range of potential losses. A determination of the reserves required, if any, is made after careful analysis, including consultations with outside advisors, where applicable. The required reserves may change in the future due to new developments.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets
Our long-lived assets include land, buildings, equipment, molds and dies, software, goodwill and other intangible assets. Long-lived assets, other than goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. We review depreciable long-lived assets for impairment to assess recoverability from future operations using undiscounteddiscounted cash flows. For these assets, no impairment charges were recorded in 20072008 or 2006, except for certain assets affected by the Lighting Program as discussed under “Special Charges” within this Management’s Discussion and Analysis and in Note 2 — Special Charges of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.2007.
Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are reviewed annually for impairment unless circumstances dictate the need for more frequent assessment under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. The identification and measurement of impairment of goodwill involves the estimation of the fair value of reporting units. The estimates of fair value of reporting units are based on the best information available
31
as of the date of the assessment, which primarily incorporates certain factors including our assumptions about operating results, business plans, income projections, anticipated future cash flows, and market data. Future cash
34
flows can be affected by changes in industry or market conditions or the rate and extent to which anticipated synergies or cost savings are realized from newly acquired entities and therefore certaincontain uncertainty. The identification and measurement of impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets involves testing which compares carrying values of assets to the estimated fair values of assets. When appropriate, the carrying value of assets will be reduced to estimated fair values.

Item 7A. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
In the operation of our business, we have various exposures to areas of risk related to factors within and outside the control of management. Significant areas of risk and our strategies to manage the exposure are discussed below.
We manufacture our products in the United States, Canada, Switzerland, Puerto Rico, Mexico, the People’s Republic of China, Italy, United Kingdom, Brazil and Australia and sell products in those markets as well as through sales offices in Singapore, the People’s Republic of China, Mexico, South Korea and the Middle East. International shipments fromnon-U.S. subsidiaries as a percentage of the Company’s total net sales were 16% in 2008, 14% in 2007 and 13% in 2006 and 11% in 2005.2006. The United Kingdom market represents 36%operations represent 31%, Canada 27%24%, Switzerland 11%16%, and all other areas 26%countries 29% of total 20072008 international sales. As such, our operating results could be affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the foreign markets in which we sell our products. To manage this exposure, we closely monitor the working capital requirements of our international units. In 2007,2008, we entered into a series of forward exchange contracts on behalf of our Canadian operation to purchase U.S. dollars in order to hedge a portion of their exposure to fluctuating rates of exchange on anticipated inventory purchases. As of December 31, 20072008 we had 18 outstanding contracts for $1$1.0 million each, which expire through December 2008.2009.
Product purchases representing approximately 14%15% of our net sales are sourced from unaffiliated suppliers located outside the United States, primarily in the People’s Republic of China and other Asian countries, Europe and Mexico.Brazil. We are actively seeking to expand this activity, particularly related to purchases from low cost areas of the world. Foreign sourcing of products may result in unexpected fluctuations in product cost or increased risk of business interruption due to lack of product or component availability due to any one of the following:
| | |
| • | Political or economic uncertainty in the source country |
|
| • | Fluctuations in the rate of exchange between the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the source countries |
|
| • | Increased logistical complexity including supply chain interruption or delay, port of departure or entry disruption and overall time to market |
|
| • | Loss of proprietary information |
|
| • | Product quality issues outside the control of the Company |
We have developed plans that address many of these risks. Such actions include careful selection of products to be outsourced and the suppliers selected; ensuring multiple sources of supply; limiting concentrations of activity by
33
port, broker, freight forwarder, etc., processes related to quality control; and maintaining control over operations, technologies and manufacturing deemed to provide competitive advantage. Many of our businesses have a dependency on certain basic raw materials needed to produce their products including steel, brass, copper,
36
aluminum, bronze, plastics, phenols, zinc, nickel, elastomers and petrochemicals as well as purchased electrical and electronic components. Our financial results could be affected by the availability and changes in prices of these materials and components.
Certain of these materials are sourced from a limited number of suppliers. These materials are also key source materials for many other companies in our industry and within the universe of industrial manufacturers in general. As such, in periods of rising demand for these materials, we may experience both (1) increased costs and (2) limited supply. These conditions can potentially result in our inability to acquire these key materials on a timely basis to produce our products and satisfy our incoming sales orders. Similarly, the cost of these materials can rise suddenly and result in materially higher costs of producing our products. We believe we have adequate primary and secondary sources of supply for each of our key materials and that, in periods of rising prices, we expect to recover a majority of the increased cost in the form of higher selling prices. However, recoveries typically lag the effect of cost increases due to the nature of our markets.
Our financial results are subject to interest rate fluctuations to the extent there is a difference between the amount of our interest-earning assets and the amount of interest-bearing liabilities. The principal objectiveobjectives of our investment management activities isare to maximizepreserve capital while earning net investment income while maintainingthat is commensurate with acceptable levels of interest rate, default and liquidity risk and facilitatingtaking into account our funding needs. As part of our investment management strategy, we may use derivative financial products such as interest rate hedges and interest rate swaps. Refer to further discussion under “Capital Structure” within this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
From time to time or when required, we issue commercial paper, which exposes us to changes in interest rates. Our cash position includes amounts denominated in foreign currencies. We manage our worldwide cash requirements by considering available funds held by our subsidiaries and the cost effectiveness with which these funds can be accessed.
We continually evaluate risk retention and insurance levels for product liability, property damage and other potential exposures to risk. We devote significant effort to maintaining and improving safety and internal control programs, which are intended to reduce our exposure to certain risks. We determine the level of insurance coverage and the likelihood of a loss and believe that the current levels of risk retention are consistent with those of comparable companies in the industries in which we operate. There can be no assurance that we will not incur losses beyond the limits of our insurance. However, our liquidity, financial position and profitability are not expected to be materially affected by the levels of risk retention that we accept.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT
HUBBELL INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Report on Management’s Responsibility for Financial Statements
Our management is responsible for the preparation, integrity and fair presentation of its published financial statements. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include amounts based on informed judgments made by management.
We believe it is critical to provide investors and other users of our financial statements with information that is relevant, objective, understandable and timely, so that they can make informed decisions. As a result, we have established and we maintain systems and practices and internal control processes designed to provide reasonable, but not, absolute assurance that transactions are properly executed and recorded and that our policies and procedures are carried out appropriately. Management strives to recruit, train and retain high quality people to ensure that controls are designed, implemented and maintained in a high-quality, reliable manner.
Our independent registered public accounting firm audited our financial statements and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Their report appears on the next page within this Annual Report onForm 10-K.
Our Board of Directors normally meets at least five times per year to provide oversight, to review corporate strategies and operations, and to assess management’s conduct of the business. The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors (which meets approximately elevennine times per year) is comprised of at least three individuals all of whom must be “independent” under current New York Stock Exchange listing standards and regulations adopted by the SEC under the federal securities laws. The Audit Committee meets regularly with our internal auditors and independent registered public accounting firm, as well as management to review, among other matters, accounting, auditing, internal controls and financial reporting issues and practices. Both the internal auditors and independent registered public accounting firm have full, unlimited access to the Audit Committee.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate systems of internal control over financial reporting as defined byRules 13a-15(f) and15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 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 reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007.2008. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007.2008.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 20072008 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm as stated in their report which is included on the next page within this Annual Report onForm 10-K.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Hubbell Incorporated:
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hubbell Incorporated and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) at December 31, 20072008 and 2006,2007, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 20072008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007,2008, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for share-based compensation in 2006, and the manner in which it accounts for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans effective December 31, 2006.
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 (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) 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 (iii) 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.

Note 1 — Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements include all subsidiaries; all significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The Company hasparticipates in two joint ventures, one active joint ventureof which is accounted for using the equity method. In 2007,method, the Company entered into a new joint venture, Hubbell Asia Limited, whose principal objective is to manage a wholly owned foreign manufacturing company in the People’s Republic of China beginning in 2008. The Company has contributed $2.5 million for a 50% interest in the joint venture whichother has been consolidated in accordance with the provisions of FIN 46,46(R), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities”. See Note 2 — Variable Interest Entities.
Certain reclassifications have been made in prior year financial statements and notes to conform to the current year presentation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Actual results could differ from the estimates that are used.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when title to the goods sold and the risk of loss have passed to the customer, there is persuasive evidence of a purchase arrangement, delivery has occurred or services are rendered, the price is determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenue is typically recognized at the time of shipment as the Company’s shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point. The Company recognizes less than one percent of total annual consolidated net revenue from post shipment obligations and service contracts, primarily within the Industrial TechnologyElectrical segment. Revenue is recognized under these contracts when the service is completed and all conditions of sale have been met. In addition, within the Industrial TechnologyElectrical segment, certain businesses sell large and complex equipment which requires construction and assembly and has long lead times. It is customary in these businesses to require a portion of the selling price to be paid in advance of construction. These payments are treated as deferred revenue and are classified in Other accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Once the equipment is shipped to the customer and meets the revenue recognition criteria, the deferred revenue is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
Further, certain of our businesses account for sales discounts and allowances based on sales volumes, specific programs and customer deductions, as is customary in electrical products markets. These items primarily relate to sales volume incentives, special pricing allowances, and returned goods. Sales volume incentives represent rebates with specific sales volume targets for specific customers. Certain distributors qualify for price rebates by subsequently reselling the Company’s products into select channels of end users. Following a distributor’s sale of an eligible product, the distributor submits a claim for a price rebate. A number of distributors, primarily in the Electrical segment, have a right to return goods under certain circumstances which are reasonably estimable by affected businesses and have historically ranged from 1%-3% of gross sales. This requires us to estimate at the time of sale the amounts that should not be recorded as revenue as these amounts are not expected to be collected in cash from customers. The Company principally relies on historical experience, specific customer agreements and anticipated future trends to estimate these amounts at the time of shipment.
Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs
The Company records shipping and handling costs as part of Cost of goods sold in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Any amounts billed to customers for reimbursement of shipping and handling are included in Net sales in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Foreign Currency Translation
The assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries are translated to U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the end of the year, and income and expense items are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the year. The effects of exchange rate fluctuations on the translated amounts of foreign currency assets and liabilities are included as translation adjustments in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income within Shareholders’ equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in income of the period.income.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of investments with original maturities of three months or less. The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair value because of their short maturities. Within the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow for the year ending December 31, 2005, the beginning of the year balance for cash and cash equivalents has been reclassified for book overdraft cash balances which have been reflected in Accounts payable in order to conform to the 2006 and 2007 presentation.
Investments
The Company defines short-term investments as securities with original maturities of greater than three months but less than one year. Investments in debt and equity securities are classified by individual security as either available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Municipal bonds and variable rate demand notes are classified as available-for-sale investments and are carried on the balance sheet at fair value with current period adjustments to carrying value recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income within Shareholders’ equity, net of tax. Other securities which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity, are classified as held-to-maturity and are carried on the balance sheet at amortized cost. The effects of amortizing these securities are recorded in current earnings. Realized gains and losses are recorded in income in the period of sale.
Accounts Receivable and Allowances
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and generally do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on an estimated amount of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable. The allowance is calculated based upon a combination of historical write-off experience, fixed percentages applied to aging categories and specific identification based upon a review of past due balances and problem accounts. The allowance is reviewed on at least a quarterly basis. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is determined that internal collection efforts should no longer be pursued. The Company also maintains a reserve for credit memos, cash discounts and product returns which are principally calculated based upon historical experience, specific customer agreements, as well as anticipated future trends.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. The cost of substantially all domestic inventories (approximately 82%79% of total net inventory value) is determined utilizing thelast-in, first-out (LIFO) method of inventory accounting. The cost of foreign inventories and certain domestic inventories is determined utilizing average cost orfirst-in, first-out (FIFO) methods of inventory accounting.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment values are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense when incurred. Property, plant and equipment placed in service prior to January 1, 1999 are depreciated over their estimated useful lives, principally using accelerated methods. Assets placed in service subsequent to January 1, 1999 are depreciated over their estimated useful lives, using straight-line methods. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their economic lives or the lease term. Gains

and losses arising on the disposal of property, plant and equipment are included in Operating Income in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Capitalized Computer Software Costs
Qualifying costs of internal use software are capitalized in accordance with Statement of Position98-1, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use”. Capitalized costs include purchased materials and services and payroll and payroll related costs. General and administrative, overhead, maintenance and training costs, as well as the cost of software that does not add functionality to existing systems, are expensed as incurred. The cost of internal use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over appropriate periods, generally five years. The unamortized balance of internal use software is included in Intangible assets and other in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Capitalized computer software costs, net of amortization, were $28.1$21.3 million and $38.2$28.1 million at December 31, 20072008 and 2006,2007, respectively. The Company recorded amortization expense of $10.7 million, $10.9 million and $9.1 million in 2008, 2007 and $5.6 million in 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively, relating to capitalized computer software.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying net assets of acquired companies. Indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill are subject to annual impairment testing using the specific guidance and criteria described in SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. This testing compares carrying values to estimated fair values and when appropriate, the carrying value of these assets will be reduced to estimated fair value. Fair values were calculated using a range of estimated future operating results and primarily utilized a discounted cash flow model. In the second quarter of 2007,2008, the Company performed its annual impairment testing of goodwill. This testing resulted in fair values for each reporting unit exceeding the reporting unit’s carrying value, including goodwill. The Company performed its annual impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets which resulted in no impairment. The Company’s policy is to perform its annual goodwill impairment assessment in the second quarter of each year unless circumstances dictate the need for more frequent assessments. Intangible assets with definite lives are being amortized over periods generally ranging from 7-305-30 years.
Other Long-Lived Assets
The Company evaluates the potential impairment of other long-lived assets when appropriate in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. If the carrying value of assets exceeds the sum of the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, the carrying value of the asset is written down to estimated fair value. The Company continually evaluates events and circumstances to determine if revisions to values or estimates of useful lives are warranted.
Income Taxes
The Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. The IRS and other tax authorities routinely review the Company’s tax returns. These audits can involve complex issues which may require an extended period of time to resolve. The Company makes adequate provisions for best estimates of exposures on previously filed tax returns. Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequence of differences between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities by applying the currently enacted statutory tax rates in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The effect of a change in statutory tax rates is recognized as income in the period that includes the enactment date. SFAS No. 109 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company uses factors to assess the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets such as the forecast of future taxable income and available tax planning strategies that could be implemented to realize the deferred tax assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
On January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109”. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and

measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For any amount of benefit to be recognized, it must be determined that it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The amount of benefit to be recognized is based on the Company’s assertion of the most likely outcome resulting from an examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. At adoption, companies are required to adjust their financial statements to reflect only those tax positions that are more-likely-than-not to be sustained. Details with respect to the impact on the Consolidated financial statements of these uncertain tax positions and the adoption are included in Note 13 — Income Taxes.
Research, Development & Engineering
Research, development and engineering expenditures represent costs to discoverand/or apply new knowledge in developing a new product, process, or in bringing about a significant improvement to an existing product or process. Research, development and engineering expenses are recorded as a component of Cost of goods sold. Expenses for research, development and engineering were less than 1% of Cost of goods sold for each of the years 2008, 2007 2006, and 2005.2006.
Retirement Benefits
The Company maintains various defined benefit pension plans for some of its U.S. and foreign employees. Effective December 31, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)”. SFAS No. 158 required the Company to recognize the funded status of its defined benefit pension and postretirement plans as an asset or liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, and transition assets or obligations that have not yet been included in net periodic benefit cost as of the end of the year of adoption are recognized as components of Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, net of tax, within Shareholders’ equity. The Company’s policy is to fund pension costs within the ranges prescribed by applicable regulations. In addition to providing defined benefit pension benefits, the Company provides health care and life insurance benefits for some of its active and retired employees. The Company’s policy is to fund these benefits through insurance premiums or as actual expenditures are made. The Company accounts for these benefits in accordance with SFAS No. 106 “Employers’ Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions”. See also Note 11 — Retirement Benefits.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is calculated as net income divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and earnings per diluted share is calculated as net income divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding of common stock plus the incremental shares outstanding assuming the exercise of dilutive stock options, stock appreciation rights and common stock equivalents.restricted shares. See also Note 1819 — Earnings Per Share.
Stock-Based Employee Compensation
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment”. The standard requires expensing the value of all share-based payments, including stock options and similar awards, based upon the award’s fair value measurement on the grant date. SFAS No. 123(R) revises SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”). SFAS No. 123(R) is supplemented by SEC SAB No. 107, “Share-Based Payment”. SAB No. 107 expresses the SEC staff’s views regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain rules and regulations including the valuation of share-based payment arrangements. The Company adopted the modified prospective transition method as outlined in SFAS No. 123(R). See also Note 18 — Stock-Based Compensation.

method as outlined in SFAS No. 123(R) and, therefore, 2005 amounts have not been restated. See also Note 17 — Stock-Based Compensation.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income is a measure of net income and all other changes in Shareholders’ equity of the Company that result from recognized transactions and other events of the period other than transactions with shareholders. See also the Consolidated Statement of Changes in ShareholdersShareholders’ Equity and Note 1920 — Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). Income.
Derivatives
To limit financial risk in the management of its assets, liabilities and debt, the Company may use derivative financial instruments such as: foreign currency hedges, commodity hedges, interest rate hedges and interest rate swaps. All derivative financial instruments are matched with an existing Company asset, liability or proposed transaction. Market value gains or losses on the derivative financial instrument are recognized in income when the effects of the related price changes of the underlying asset or liability are recognized in income. Prior to the 2002 and 2008 issuance in 2002 of $200 million, ten year non-callablelong term notes, the Company entered into a forward interest rate locklocks to hedge its exposure to fluctuations in treasury rates, whichrates. The 2002 interest rate lock resulted in a $1.3 million loss, of approximately $1.3 million. This amount waswhile the 2008 interest rate lock resulted in a $1.2 million gain. These amounts were recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, within Shareholders’ equitynet of tax, and isare being amortized over the life of the respective notes.
During 20072008 and 2006,2007, the Company entered into a series of forward exchange contracts to purchase U.S. dollars in order to hedge its exposure to fluctuating rates of exchange on anticipated inventory purchases. These contracts, each for $1 million expire over the next 12 months through December 20082009 and have been designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”, as amended.
As of December 31, 20072008 and 2006,2007, the Company had $1.3 million of unrealized cash flow hedge gains and $0.8 million of unrealized cash flow hedge losses, and $0.2 million of unrealized cash flow hedge gains, respectively, on foreign currency hedges and $0.3 million of net unamortized gains and $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively, of unamortized losses, respectively, on a forward interest rate lock arrangementarrangements recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. Amounts chargedIn 2008 and 2007 there were $1.2 million in gains and $1.6 million of losses recorded in income, respectively, related to income in 2007 and 2006 were immaterial.cash flow hedges.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFASStatement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. SFAS No. 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities and expands disclosure with respect to fair value measurements. This statement iswas originally effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued a final Staff Position(“FSP 157-2”) which allowed companies to allowelect aone-year one year deferral of adoption of SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a non-recurring basis.

At the beginning of each calendar year, the Company determines the appropriate expected return on assets for each plan based upon its strategic asset allocation (see discussion below). In making this determination, the Company utilizes expected returns for each asset class based upon current market conditions and expected risk premiums for each asset class.

The Company has a written investment policy and asset allocation guidelines for its domestic and foreign pension plans. In establishing these policies, the Company has considered that its various pension plans are a major retirement vehicle for most plan participants and has acted to discharge its fiduciary responsibilities with regard to the plans solely in the interest of such participants and their beneficiaries. The goal underlying the establishment of the investment policies is to provide that pension assets shall be invested in a prudent manner and so that, together with the expected contributions to the plans, the funds will be sufficient to meet the obligations of the plans as they become due. To achieve this result, the Company conducts a periodic strategic asset allocation study to form a basis for the allocation of pension assets between various asset categories. Specific policy benchmark percentages are assigned to each asset category with minimum and maximum ranges established for each. The assets are then tactically managed within these ranges. At no time may derivatives be utilized to leverage the asset portfolio.
Equity securities include Company common stock in the amounts of $10.9 million (2.6% of total domestic plan assets) and $18.5 million (3.4% of total domestic plan assets) and $15.5 million (3% of total domestic plan assets) at December 31, 20072008 and 2006,2007, respectively.
The Company’s other postretirement benefits are unfunded. Therefore, no asset information is reported.

At December 31, 2007, and 2006, the Company had $36.7 million and $20.9 million, respectively, of debt reflected as Short-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The 2007 short-termShort-term debt consisted of $36.7 million of commercial paper. The 2006 short-term debt consisted of a $5.1 million money market loan and $15.8 million of commercial paper. At December 31, 20072008 and 2006,2007, the Company had $199.4$497.4 million and $199.3$199.4 million, respectively, of senior notes reflected as Long-Term DebtLong-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Interest and fees paid related to total indebtedness totaled $24.5 million for 2008, $17.1 million for 2007 and $14.8 million in 2006 and $18.6 million in 2005.2006.
In May 2002, the Company issued ten year, non- callablenon-callable notes due in 2012 at face value of $200 million and a fixed interest rate of 6.375%. TheseIn May 2008, the Company completed the sale of $300 million of long-term, senior, unsecured notes maturing in 2018 and bearing interest at the rate of 5.95%. The proceeds of the May 2008 debt offering, net of discount, were used to pay down commercial paper borrowings and for general corporate purposes.
Both of these notes are fixed rate indebtedness, are not callable and are only subject to accelerated payment prior to maturity if the Company fails to meet certain non-financial covenants, all of which were met at December 31, 20072008 and 2006.2007. The most restrictive of these covenants limits our ability to enter into mortgages and sale-leasebacks of property having a net book value in excess of $5 million without the approval of the Note holders.
Prior to the 2002 and 2008 issuance of the long term notes, the Company entered into forward interest rate locks to hedge its exposure to fluctuations in treasury rates. The 2002 interest rate lock resulted in a $1.3 million loss, while the 2008 interest rate lock resulted in a $1.2 million gain. These amounts were recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, net of tax, and are being amortized over the life of the respective notes.

As of December 31, 2008, the Company had $22.1 million of Federal and State tax credit carryforwards available to offset future income taxes, of which $0.3 million may be carried forward indefinitely while the remaining $21.8 million will begin to expire at various times beginning in 2009 through 2024. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance of $2.5 million for the portion of the tax carryforward credits the Company anticipates will expire prior to utilization. Additionally, the Company had Federal and State net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) totaling $1.7 million as of December 31, 2008. A portion of the NOLs relate to an “ownership change” pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 382, which imposes an annual limitation on the utilization of pre-acquisition operating losses.

The Company adopted the provisions of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized a $4.7 million decrease in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits, which was accounted for as an increase to the January 1, 2007 balance of retained earnings. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in millions):

Included in the balance at December 31, 20072008 are $5.7$13.5 million of tax positions which, if in the future are determined to be recognizable, would affect the annual effective income tax rate. Also, included in the balance at December 31, 2007 is $0.8Additionally, there are $1.2 million of tax positions for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty as to the timing of such deductibility. Because of the impact of deferred tax accounting, other than interest and penalties, the disallowance of the shorter deductibility period would not affect the annual effective tax rate but would accelerate the payment of cash to the taxing authority to an earlier period.
The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties associated with the underpayment of income taxes within Provision for income taxes in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company recorded interest expense of $0.4 million related to the 04/05 Exam. During the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005,2008, the Company did not incur any material expenses for interest and penalties. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company incurred interest expense of $0.4 million related to the completion of an IRS examination of the Company’s 2004 and 2005 tax returns.

Concentrations of Credit Risk: Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of trade receivables, cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. The Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business to its customers. Due to the diversity of its product lines, the Company has an extensive customer base including electrical distributors and wholesalers, electric utilities, equipment manufacturers, electrical contractors, telephone operatingtelecommunication companies and retail and hardware outlets. No single customer accounted for more than 10% of total sales in any year during the three years ended December 31, 2007.2008. However, the Company’s top 10 customers accounted for approximately 30% of the accounts receivable balance at December 31, 2007.2008. As part of its ongoing procedures, the Company monitors the credit worthiness of its customers. Bad debt write-offs have historically been minimal. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and limits the amount of exposure to any one institution.
Fair Value: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheetConsolidated Balance Sheet for cash and cash equivalents, short-term and long-term investments, receivables, bank borrowings, accounts payable and accruals approximate their fair values given the immediate or short-term nature of these items. See also Note 7 — Investments.
The fair value of the senior notes classified as long-term debt was determined by reference to quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics and approximated $213.8$484.7 million and $209.7$213.8 million at December 31, 20072008 and 2006,2007, respectively.

Note 15 — Fair Value Measurement
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. SFAS No. 157 provides enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities and expands disclosure with respect to fair value measurements. This statement was originally effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issuedFSP 157-2 which allowed companies to elect a one year deferral of adoption of SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a non-recurring basis. The Company adopted SFAS No. 157 as of January 1, 2008, with the exception of the application of the statement to non-recurring nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. Non-recurring nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities for which the Company has not applied the provisions of SFAS No. 157 include those measured at fair value in goodwill impairment testing, indefinite-lived intangibles measured at fair value for impairment testing, asset retirement obligations initially measured at fair value,long-lived asset impairment assessments as well as those initially measured at fair value in a business combination.
SFAS No. 157 establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to valuation used to measure fair value. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring a company to develop its own assumptions.
As of December 31, 2008, the only Company financial assets and liabilities impacted by SFAS No. 157 were long-term investments (specifically available-for-sale securities) and forward exchange contracts.

Note 16 — Commitments and Contingencies
Environmental and Legal
The Company is subject to environmental laws and regulations which may require that it investigate and remediate the effects of potential contamination associated with past and present operations. The Company is also subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including those relating to workers’ compensation, product liability and environmental matters, including, for each, past production of product containing toxic substances, which have arisen in the normal course of its operations or have been acquired through business combinations. Estimates of future liability with respect to such matters are based on an evaluation of currently available facts. Liabilities are recorded when it is probable that costs will be incurred and can be reasonably estimated. Given the nature of matters involved, it is possible that liabilities will be incurred in excess of amounts currently recorded. However, based upon available information, including the Company’s past experience, and reserves, management believes that the ultimate liability with respect to these matters will not have a material affecteffect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In the fourth quarter of 2005, theThe Company adopted the provisions ofaccounts for conditional asset retirement obligations in accordance with SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”. FIN 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations”. FIN 47 clarifies the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in SFAS No. 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” to refer to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timingand/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the Company. Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The impact of the Company’s adoption of FIN 47 was not material. The liability recorded was charged directly to income and was not reflected as a cumulative effect adjustment due to the immaterial amount. In addition to the amount recorded, the Company identified other legal obligations related to environmental clean up for which a settlement date could not be determined. Management does not believe these items were material to the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows as of December 31, 2008, 2007 2006 and 2005.2006. The Company continues to monitor and revalue its liability as necessary and, as of December 31, 20072008 the liability continues to be immaterial.

The following table summarizes the related assumptions used to determine the fair value of the SARs granted during the periods ended December 31, 2008, 2007 2006 and 2005.2006. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Company’s stock and other factors. The Company uses historical data as well as other factors to estimate exercise behavior and employee termination. The expected term of SARs granted is based upon historical trends of stock option behavior as well as future projections. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected term of award.

(2) | | In the first, second, third and fourth quarters of 2006, Net Income included $1.7 million, $1.4 million, $0.7 million and $3.7 million of pretax special charges, respectively. These charges relate to the integration of the Company’s lighting operations in the Electrical segment.

The Company accrues for costs associated with guarantees when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. The most likely cost to be incurred is accrued based on an evaluation of currently available facts, and where no amount within a range of estimates is more likely, the minimum is accrued.
The Company records a liability equal to the fair value of guarantees in the Consolidated Balance Sheet in accordance with FIN 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others”. As of December 31, 20072008 and 2006,2007, the fair value and maximum potential payment related to the Company’s guarantees were not material. The Company may enter into various hedging instruments which are subject to disclosure in accordance with FIN 45. As of December 31, 2007,2008, the Company had 18 individual forward exchange contracts outstanding each for the purchase of $1.0 million U.S. dollars which expire through December 2008.2009. These contracts were entered into in order to hedge the exposure to fluctuating rates of exchange on anticipated inventory purchases. These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with SFAS No. 133, as amended.
The Company offers a product warranty which covers defects on most of its products. These warranties primarily apply to products that are properly used for their intended purpose, installed correctly, and properly maintained. The Company generally accrues estimated warranty costs at the time of sale. Estimated warranty expenses are based upon historical information such as past experience, product failure rates, or the number of units repaired or replaced. Adjustments are made to the product warranty accrual as claims are incurred or as historical experience indicates. The product warranty accrual is reviewed for reasonableness on a quarterly basis and is

Item 9A. | Controls and Procedures |
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures which, by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange ActRules 13a-15(e) and15d-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report onForm 10-K. Based upon that evaluation, each of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information (including from consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in Exchange Act reports. Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting and the independent registered public accounting firm’s audit report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting are included in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 20072008 which are included in Item 8 of this Annual Report onForm 10-K.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recently completed quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
