Recent Acquisitions and Divestitures
Over the past five years, we have spent in excess of $3.4 billion acquiring businesses that provide a strategic fit with businesses we presently conduct. During this period we have acquired 25 businesses that have provided approximately $2 billion in annual revenue at the time of acquisition. Our most significant acquisition during the past five years was that of EDO Corporation (EDO) in December 2007 for approximately $1.8 billion. The acquisition of EDO provided additional product offerings in the defense and security market and approximately $1.1 billion in annual revenue. In 2010, we completed the acquisitions of Nova Analytics Corporation (Nova) and Godwin Pumps of America, Inc. and Godwin Holdings Limited (collectively referred to as Godwin). Nova, a manufacturer of premium quality laboratory, field, portable and on-line analytical instruments used in water and wastewater, environmental, medical, and food and beverage applications, provides us with brands, technologies, distribution and after-market content in the analytical instrumentation market. Godwin is a supplier and servicer of automatic self-priming and on-demand pumping solutions serving the global industrial, construction, mining, municipal, oil and gas dewatering markets. The addition of Godwin’s specialized products and skills complements our Fluid segment’s broad submersible pump portfolio and global sales and distribution network.
Over the past five years we have received proceeds of approximately $800 from the divestiture of ten businesses with combined annual revenue of approximately $1.2 billion at the time of divestiture. The most significant divestitures that occurred during the five-year period were our CAS Inc. (CAS), Switches and Automotive Fluid Handling Systems (FHS) businesses. On September 8, 2010 we completed the sale of CAS for $237. CAS was a component of our Defense segment engaging in systems engineering and technical

2


assistance (SETA) for the U.S. Government. On July 26, 2007, we completed the sale of substantially all of our Switches business, with the remaining portion of the business sold during 2008. The two-part sale generated aggregate proceeds of $228. On February 26, 2006, we completed the sale of FHS, for $188. The financial position and results of operations from these businesses have been presented as discontinued operations.
2011 Announcement of Company Transformation

On January 12,11, 2011, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had unanimouslyof ITT approved a plan to separate the Company’s businessesITT into three distinct,independent, publicly traded companies. On October 31, 2011 (the Distribution Date), ITT completed the tax-free spin-off of its Defense and Information Solutions business, Exelis Inc. (Exelis), and its water-related businesses, Xylem Inc. (Xylem) (referred to herein as the Distribution). We believe these three businesses are well-positioned to create value for shareholders as standalone companies.

ITT’s Board of Directors determined that the Distribution would provide benefits to the Company, including: (i) greater strategic focus of financial resources and management’s efforts, (ii) enhanced customer focus, (iii) direct and differentiated access to capital resources, (iv) enhanced investor choices by offering investment opportunities in separate entities, (v) improved management incentive tools, and

2


(vi) greater potential for utilization of stock as an acquisition currency.

Greater Strategic Focus of Financial Resources and Management’s Efforts. Prior to the Distribution, ITT’s businesses exhibited different financial and operating characteristics. In particular, the Exelis business was generally characterized by cycles that are comparatively lengthy relative to those of Xylem and ITT. This resulted in different capital expenditure and acquisition strategies. It was believed that management resources could be efficiently utilized if each management company concentrated solely on its set of businesses.

The Distribution allows management to more closely align their time and resources to operating each of these businesses.

Enhanced Customer Focus. As a unified, commonly managed set of industrial businesses, our management will be more able to focus on the needs of our customers and the specific end-markets and geographies they serve.

Direct and Differentiated Access to Capital Resources.Following completionthe Distribution, we have the ability to focus our capital resource deployment on the remaining businesses. As a global industrial business with strong global cash flow generation potential, our business has different financial and operating characteristics from Exelis and Xylem. We believe that direct and differentiated access to capital resources will allow each company to better align each of their financial and operational characteristics with investor and market expectations.

Enhanced Investor Choices by Offering Investment Opportunities in Separate Entities. After the Distribution, investors should be better able to evaluate our financial performance, as well as our strategy within the context of our markets. We believe that the investment characteristics of ITT following the spin may appeal to different types of investors. As a result of the transaction,Distribution, our management should be able to implement goals and evaluate strategic opportunities in light of investor expectations within our various industries. In addition, we should be able to focus our public and investor relations efforts on cultivating a new identity.

Utilization of Stock as an Acquisition Currency. The Distribution will enable Exelis and Xylem to use their stock as currency to pursue certain financial and strategic objectives, including tax-free merger transactions. In addition, future strategic transactions with similar businesses will be more easily facilitated through the use of our stand-alone stock as consideration.

On October 31, 2011 (the Distribution Date), ITT will continuecompleted the Distribution of Exelis and Xylem by way of a distribution of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Exelis common stock and Xylem common stock, on a pro rata basis, to tradeITT shareholders of record on October 17, 2011. Exelis and Xylem are now independent companies trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbols “XLS” and “XYL”, respectively. The Distribution was made pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, dated October 25, 2011, among ITT, Exelis and Xylem (the Distribution Agreement). On the Distribution Date, ITT also affected a one-for-two reverse stock split of its common stock (the 1:2 Reverse Stock Split).

Following the Distribution, ITT did not own any shares of common stock of Exelis or Xylem. All information herein has been restated to reflect the Distribution, and the results of the distributed businesses are presented as discontinued operations for all periods.

Business Strengths and Strategies

Management believes that the Company has several distinct competitive advantages that allow it to sustain and grow its market positions.

ITT is a diversified industrial technology company with established businesses that share five unifying characteristics:

1.The design and manufacture of highly engineered products for critical applications

2.Leaders in attractive and defensible niches

3.Global footprint & highly diversified

4.Longstanding brands and operating history

5.Proven management system and leadership

As a result, these businesses share a common, repeatable operating model. Each business is a leader in applying its technology and engineering expertise to solve some of the most pressing challenges of our customers. Our applied engineering adeptness provides a strong business fit with our customers given the critical nature of their applications. This in turn provides us with a strong degree of knowledge of our customer’s requirements and allows us to better determine how we can help them to achieve their business goals. Our technology and customer intimacy in tandem produce opportunities to capture recurring revenue streams, aftermarket opportunities and long lived original equipment manufacturer (OEM) platforms. ITT possesses a core competency at operating this unified model across businesses in order to create value. These businesses also tend to operate in varying economic business cycles, which reduces exposures to any one cycle.

The oil & gas business in our Industrial Process segment is representative of the capability that many of ITT’s businesses have to generate profitable growth from our common operating model. In 2007 Industrial Process began to pursue growth in the oil & gas market because of its long-term attractiveness, our existing engineering capabilities, brand strength and the aftermarket potential. We started by investing in our technology through our product line expansion. We increased our footprint to achieve strategic proximity to our customers, including facilities in India in 2008, Saudi Arabia in 2009, and the acquisition of Canberra Pumps in Brazil in 2010. Additionally, we invested in upgrading and expanding our global test capabilities to accommodate high horsepower pumps that are used in this market. We have just recently completed a significant upgrade and expansion of our plant in Brazil and acquired our distributor in Australia to cover the expanding oil & gas market in that region. As a result of our operating model, over this time we have signed global oil & gas strategic account agreements with five globally recognized oil & gas customers.

ITT possesses leading brands in many of its niche markets such as Goulds Pumps, Cannon, KONI, Enidine and ITT. These brands are associated with quality, reliability, durability, and engineering excellence. Recently, the Company has extended its branding efforts internationally. As a result, the ITT brand is very well recognized in emerging markets including China, India, Brazil and Saudi Arabia.

In addition to branding efforts, we collectively utilize the well-established ITT Management System (IMS), which is a framework for running our businesses in a measureable, data-driven manner and is a guide for the behaviors, decisions and actions of our employees. The IMS consists of four core integrated processes:

1.Profitable Growth – Value based approach to organic growth through strategic planning, market segmentation, and new product development

2.Operational Excellence – Value Based Lean Six Sigma and goal deployment process for continuous, sustained cost reduction

3.Resource Optimization – Alignment of our production, sourcing, and footprint with our growth strategies

4.Leadership & Learning – Continuous training and development of our employees

We deploy the IMS in each of our operating segments and at each of our major facilities. In addition, we have implemented a system of integrated councils comprised of leaders from each business that focus on core growth and efficiency improvement areas across ITT. The focus areas are 1) Commercial Excellence; 2) Operational Excellence; 3) Technology; and 4) Global Sourcing. This collaborative

approach provides us with the opportunity to leverage best practices and key resources in customer relationship management, coordinated sourcing initiatives, innovation, and technology sharing.

ITT’s long-term objectives are to increase the Company’s earnings and financial returns through a balanced operating strategy. The elements of this strategy are disciplined organic growth through global market expansion and new product development, combined with operational improvements through the ITT Management System that focus on reducing costs and cycle times and improving our productivity on a continual basis. We believe we can drive growth by helping our existing customers grow while seeking new customers by expanding our geographic and product markets. With the external focus of the ITT Management System our efforts at continuous improvement are centered on meeting and exceeding customer requirements.

Our long-term goals are to drive average annual organic revenue growth of approximately 5%-7%, with corresponding operating margin expansion of 50-70 basis points, achieve free cash flow conversion of greater than 105%, and adjusted EPS growth of 10%-15% per year. We intend to leverage our niche market positions, continue to expand globally by following and supporting our customers and their growth, introduce new products, and drive down costs and increase productivity to reach these goals.

ITT’s growth strategy consists of the following six key elements, which collectively are expected to grow revenues, expand margins, and drive increased profitability and cash flow:

1. Premier Customer Experience

ITT places significant focus on managing the relationships it has with its customers through a formalized process known as Value-Based Commercial Excellence (VBCE). VBCE is a continuous improvement process which our businesses use to strategically price our products and services, develop our value propositions, and assist our customers to solve their toughest business challenges. ITT is able to accomplish this by providing an efficient and productive customer experience through advanced order configuration, on-time delivery initiatives, and reliable products and services. In addition, ITT has key strategic account relationships throughout the industries we serve. Strategic accounts are customer partnerships, often global in scale, which promote the shared benefits of improved business processes between ITT and its customers. Our strategic account agreements promote customer intimacy, optimized service and delivery performance, and provide growth and profit improvement opportunities. In some instances we are able to leverage these relationships across segments. For example, both Industrial Process and ICS supply products and services to certain oil & gas customers through Industrial Process’s

4


strategic account relationships. Additionally, ITT’s Global Supply Chain Services (GSCS) capabilities and operational excellence initiatives are key supporting elements to the premier customer experience. The Company views its customer relationships as its primary vehicle for growth and technological advancement. Understanding our customer’s growth plans and challenges allows ITT’s businesses to tailor and deliver reliable and timely products and services.

2. Investment in Technology and Research & Development

The company has a core competency in application engineering because a majority of our products feature leading technologies that operate in harsh environments. Harsh environments reflect challenging surrounding conditions such as the extreme cold and darkness of outer space, the high pressure of the ocean floor or within the confines of hand held communication devices that oftentimes are dropped on hard surfaces. For example, our electrical connectors are built specifically for service on satellites in space, in oil & gas drilling operations under sea and on land, and in popular mobile devices such as smart phones.

ITT has differentiated itself in the critical arena of technology and research & development (R&D). ITT has a strong track record in new product development and introduction. As a result of our investments, R&D as a percentage of sales has exceeded three percent during each of the last three years. ITT’s approach to technology is to work with its customers in tailoring the right approach to a particular customer need or problem. In our Industrial Process business, our engineers work with our customers in a number of highly challenging environments to improve the way our pumps are installed and operated. This allows the customer to run their processes more reliably and use less energy since energy is the largest component of pump life cycle operating costs.

3. Focused Expansion in Growth Markets

ITT is a global company with 63% of its 2011 revenue derived from international markets, including 28% from emerging growth market economies. Accordingly, ITT has located approximately half of its manufacturing facilities outside of the United States to lower costs, achieve strategic proximity to its customers and to further increase international sales and market share. For example, ITT’s ICS segment has had a long-term presence at its Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China facility. Shenzhen is a low cost manufacturing site that also possesses component fabrication capabilities such as metal stamping, plating, machining and injection molding. Shenzhen produces products for both domestic consumption in China and for global customers. The plant and its experienced, skilled workforce produce a number of ICS products such as universal contacts, electric vehicle connectors, and medical connectors. In

addition, the Shenzhen site is staffed with engineers who design specific products for the Asia Pacific and China region.

ITT’s businesses are in a position to grow with its customers in these rapidly expanding global markets. Many of these markets are bolstered by secular trends driving development throughout the emerging economies such as a growing middle class and urbanization. These trends are fueling increased consumer consumption of energy, durable goods, automobiles, rail and air travel. For example, Goulds Pumps are used in processing petrochemicals in Saudi Arabia for use in a host of consumer goods such as plastics. Our Motion Technologies’ brake pads are installed on Shanghai General Motors and Mercedes automobiles in China, and KONI rail dampers are making high speed trains more comfortable for passengers in China.

We have and expect to continue to expand our R&D capabilities to make products that are relevant to local markets. Our focus is on products where reliability and engineered solutions are valued. We recently added R&D technology centers in key markets such as India and China. In early 2012, we plan to begin development on another R&D center in China that will be focused on expanding and enhancing braking technologies for the local market. Industrial Process is developing localized ISO and multistage ring section pumps at our Baroda, India plant for the growing chemical process, oil & gas, and general industrial pump markets in India.

4. Increased Aftermarket Capture and Platform Expansion

Aftermarket sources accounted for approximately 30% of our 2011 revenue. Our Industrial Process, Motion Technologies, and Control Technologies segments benefit from repeat sales of original products, consumable spare parts, and services as a result of our large, global, and growing installed base of products. Aftermarket business generally carries higher margins than original sale products and tends to be a more stable, recurring revenue stream than project-based businesses. The key drivers of aftermarket demand are the wear and tear on critical components in harsh environmental applications. We develop our aftermarket business through our end user sales channels and dedicated service personnel. The Company views this as a valuable source of future earnings and is actively marketing its capabilities while investing in technologies that reduce the customer’s total life cycle cost. For example, our Industrial Process business has an established international service center network with eight Pump Repair and Overhaul shops (PRO shops) in the United States and facilities in Australia, Brazil, Chile, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, and Venezuela.

Our Motion Technologies segment also has recurring revenue streams from automotive and rail platform content. Its products generally serve on long-term platforms whereby once

5


the original equipment products are sold, aftermarket parts are needed to replace and extend the life of a vehicle. Our up-front investments to gain positions on automotive platforms provide long-term sustainable revenue. Another example of this is on various aerospace platforms where ICS has been supplying content for many decades.

5. Margin Expansion through Operational Excellence

The Company strives to increase its profit margins and improve its competitive position in all of its business segments through its operational excellence strategy. The core elements of this strategy are Value Based Lean Six Sigma (VBLSS), GSCS and shared service utilization. These strategies enable the company to realize operating efficiencies, increased customer satisfaction, and increased free cash flow while lowering operating costs, streamlining processes, eliminating waste and improving cycle times.

The ITT culture has long embraced Lean as its central operating tenet. VBLSS encompasses Lean manufacturing as well as continuous process improvement in other critical areas such as customer service and order entry and fulfillment. Our intent is to drive ever increasing levels of quality, speed, and efficiency.

GSCS which includes low cost region sourcing and production, has enabled us to mitigate inflation and increasing material costs in order to maintain or improve profitability during periods of rising costs. ITT produces its array of engineered products in key low-cost and emerging growth countries such as China, India, Brazil, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Czech Republic and Mexico. Certain operations, including shared services are leveraged between the Company’s operating segments which have resulted in additional cost savings and synergies through the consolidation of operations and reduced general and administrative expenses.

6. Effective Capital Deployment to Drive Organic and Inorganic Growth

ITT’s businesses operate in growing and highly fragmented markets. ITT estimates the sum of its served addressable markets to be approximately $31 billion worldwide. Given these dynamics and ITT’s technology investments, global reach and strong brands, the Company believes it has the opportunity to continue to expand geographically, broaden its product lines, improve its market share positions, and increase earnings through sales growth and operational efficiencies on an organic basis and through acquisition. We strive to effectively deploy our capital by combining strategic filters with rigorous financial criteria. ITT’s acquisition strategy generally targets firms in

similar businesses and end-markets that suppliesproduce unique and differentiated products and technologies. A disciplined focus on liquidity and cash management is a major part of how we will manage ITT’s financial performance.

Targeted Leverage Of Our Capabilities

In addition to the six key elements of the growth strategy described above, ITT will leverage its diverse set of resources and capabilities across its businesses in order to maximize the Company’s value creation potential. The Company is continually evaluating cross business revenue growth and cost saving opportunities and views the following assets and capabilities as core to this mission:

n

ITT Brand – The ITT brand is well regarded and widely recognized, particularly in global growth markets. This provides our segments with brand recognition for new products in key emerging growth market economies such as Brazil, China, and India.

n

IMS – Increased performance and productivity through the common application of the ITT Management System.

n

Shared Services – North American, Chinese and other regional shared services initiatives; including information technology.

n

Councils – Cross value center operational councils in areas such as operations, commercial excellence, and technology and new product development. While our technologies vary significantly between each of our segments, our engineering leaders across the businesses leverage our collective strengths through collaboration and cooperation in areas such as design tooling, specific technologies and best practices including our long-standing, results-driven value-based product development process.

n

Although some cost increases may be recovered through increased prices to customers, our operating results are readily available.generally exposed to such fluctuations. We attempt to control such costs through fixed-priced contracts with suppliers and various other cost containment strategies, such as our GSCS initiative. We typically acquire materials and components through a combination of blanket and scheduled purchase orders to support our materials requirements for an average of four to eight weeks, with the exception of some specialty material.materials. From time to time, we may experience significant price volatility or supply constraints for materials that are not available from multiple sources. Frequently,sources such as certain rare earth minerals. In limited circumstances, we are ablemay have to obtain scarce components for somewhat higher prices on the openspot market, which may have ana negative impact on gross margin but does not disrupt production.and can periodically create a disruption to production and delivery. We also acquire certain inventory in anticipation of supply constraints or enter into longer-term pricing commitments with vendors to improve the priority, price and availability of supply.

We evaluate hedging opportunities to mitigate or minimize the risk of operating margin erosion resulting from the volatility of commodity prices.

Manufacturing Methods

We utilize two primary methods of fulfilling demand for products:build-to-order andengineer-to-order. Build-to-order assembly consists of building a group of products with the same pre-defined specifications, generally for our OEM customers’ inventory. Engineer-to-order assembly consists of building a customized system for a customer’s individual order specifications. In both cases, we offer design, integration, test and other production value-added services. We employbuild-to-order capabilities to maximize manufacturing and

logistics efficiencies by producing high volumes of basic product configurations. Engineering products to order permits the configuration of units to meet the customizationcustomized requirements of our customers. Our inventory management and distribution practices in bothbuild-to-order andengineer-to-order seek to minimize inventory holding periods by taking delivery of the inventoryperiods.

Backlog

Delivery schedules vary from customer to customer based on their requirements. For example, large complex projects in specialized markets such as oil and manufacturing immediately prior to the sale or distribution of products to our customers.

Significant Customers
The U.S. Government is our only customer that accounts for greater than 10% of consolidated revenue. The operations of our Defense segment represent the substantial majority of our sales to the U.S. Government. In total, the U.S. Government represented 46%, 52%gas and 51% of our consolidated revenue results during 2010, 2009mining at Industrial Process require longer lead times and 2008, respectively.
Research and Development
Research and development is a key element of ITT’s engineering culture and is generally focused on the design and development of products and solutions that anticipate customer needs and emerging trends. Our businesses invest substantial resources for research and development (R&D) activities. We anticipate our investments in future R&D activities will be consistent with recent spending levels to ensure a continuing flow of innovative, high-quality products and maintain our competitive positionproduction cycles. Delivery delays could arise from changes in the markets we serve. Such activities are conducted in laboratorycustomer’s requirements or technical difficulties.

that our patents and applications are important for maintaining the competitive differentiation ofThe highly customized application engineering embedded within our products, our proprietary rights and improving our return on research and development investments. knowledge capabilities all contribute to enhancing our competitive position.

While we own and control a significant number of patents, trade secrets, confidential information, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, and other intellectual property rights which, in the aggregate, are of material importance to our business, management believes that our business, as a whole, as well as each of our core business segments, is not materially dependent on any one intellectual property right or related group of such rights.

Patents, patent applications, and license agreements will expire or terminate over time by operation of law, in accordance with their terms or otherwise. As the portfolio of our patents, patent applications, and license agreements has evolved over a long period of time, we do not expect the expiration of any specific patent or other intellectual property right to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Research and Development

R&D is a key element of ITT’s engineering culture and is generally focused on the design and development of products and solutions that anticipate customer needs and emerging trends. In addition, our R&D is based on taking technology

12


quickly to the tangible phase, increasing the competitive offering, and increasing the customer service level through application engineered solutions.

Product development efforts at Industrial Process focus on technologies that reduce customer’s total cost of ownership. We have significantly expanded our API pump coverage to service the oil & gas market. During 2011, we introduced some key new products, including two slurry valves and a slurry pump to service the mining market and a high pressure ring section pump for reverse osmosis and general industrial applications.

Motion Technologies R&D activities focus on the design and development of our patents, we are licensed to use certain patents, technology,products and other intellectual property rights ownedsolutions that either meet specific customers’ needs or anticipate new market trends and controlled by others,environmental regulations. During 2011, Motion Technologies introduced key new products, including a low-copper content brake pad, new friction materials for the North American market and similarly, the U.S. Governmentand/or other entities may be licensed to use certain patents, technology,Ceramic product line for high-performance European aftermarket. Additionally, in 2012 Motion Technologies will begin construction of a new R&D and other intellectual property rights owned and controlled by us, under U.S. Government contracts or otherwise when we consider such licensesproduction center in Wuxi, China. The facility, expected to be completed in mid-2012, will be focused on driving development of friction materials suited to performance requirements specific of the Chinese market, to better serve local demands and to be included in all new projects currently restricted to local suppliers.

ICS’s R&D programs are focused on bringing products to market that satisfy the present and future needs of the connectors industry. Our product designs attempt to deliver solutions to size reduction and bandwidth expansion challenges, while providing reliable power and signal connections that meet and exceed the requirements of our customers. Our new J1772 Electric Vehicle connector was the first in the industry to receive approval from UL, the electrical safety testing and certification organization, and won product of the year awards in 2011. Our new QLC miniature high density connector, used in medical ultrasound equipment, was selected by a leading medical equipment company as their choice for all new ultrasound equipment.

Control Technologies R&D efforts are aimed at producing innovative technologies that solve our customer’s critical issues. During 2011, we introduced Enidamp(tm), a vibration control product that significantly reduces vibrations on commercial aircraft that allows critical overheat detection system to function properly. Other important developments in 2011 were an environmentally friendly shock absorber and an actuator for gate valves that addresses two critical customer concerns. First, it is extremely light in weight, and second, it can meet or exceed customer lead time requirements.

We anticipate our investments in future R&D activities will moderately increase from current spending levels to ensure a continuing flow of innovative, high quality products and maintain our competitive position in the markets we serve. Such activities are conducted in laboratory and engineering facilities at several of our major manufacturing locations, as well as in our best interests.dedicated R&D facilities strategically positioned close to our customers. During 2011, 2010 and 2009, we recognized R&D expenses of $66, $61, and $53, respectively, within operating expenses, which is 3.1%, 3.2% and 3.0% as a percent of revenues, respectively.

Cyclicality and Seasonality

Many of the businesses in which we operate are subject to specific industry and general economic cycles. Our connectors business tends to be impacted more in the early portion of an economic cycle, while the automotive and aerospace components businesses tend to expand in the middle portion of the economic cycle and the industrial pump business typically benefits from late cycle expansion.

Our businesses experience limited seasonal variations, with demand generally at an annual low during summer months (our third quarter) mainly attributable to European automotive manufacturing shutdowns and the planned industrial maintenance activities of our customers. Revenue impacts from the limited seasonal variations are typically mitigated by our backlog of orders that allow us to adjust levels of production across the summer months.

Environmental Matters

We are subject to stringent federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations concerning air emissions, water discharges and waste disposal. In the United States, such environmental laws and regulationsthese include but are not limited to the Federal Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, the Resource, Conservation and Recovery Act, and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act. Environmental requirements are significant factors affecting allour operations. We have established an internal program to assess compliance with applicable environmental requirements for all of our facilities. The program, which includes periodic audits of many of our locations, including our major operating facilities, is designed to identify problems in a timely manner, correct deficiencies and prevent future noncompliance. Over the past several years, we have conducted regular, thorough audits of our major operating facilities. As a result, management believes that our companies are in substantial compliance with current environmental regulations.

Management does not believe, based on current circumstances, that we will incur compliance costs pursuant to such regulations that will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We believe we closely monitor our environmental responsibilities, together with trends in the environmental laws. WhileIn addition, we

have purchased insurance protection against certain environmental risks arising out of our business. Environmental laws and regulations are subject to change, however, the nature of such is inherently unpredictable and the timing of potential changes is uncertain. However, the effect of legislative or regulatory changes couldwhich may be materialdifficult to the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. In addition, we have purchased insurance protection against certain unknown environmental risks.

predict.

Accruals for environmental mattersliabilities are recorded on asite-by-site basis when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. Our estimated liability is undiscounted and is reduced to reflect the anticipated participation of other potentially responsible parties in those instances where it is probable that such parties are legally responsible and financially capable of paying their respective share of the relevant costs. At December 31, 2010,2011, we had accrued $139$102 related to environmental matters. Such estimates are subject to change and may be affected by many factors, such as new information about a site, evolving scientific knowledge about risk associated with any contamination involved, developments affecting remediation technology, and attitudes of regulatory authorities.

Employees

As of December 31, 2011, we had approximately 8,500 employees, of which approximately 3,500 were located in the United States. Approximately 15% of our U.S. employees are represented by unions. We also have unionized employees in Italy and Brazil. No one unionized facility accounts for more than 20% of ITT total revenues. Although our relations with our employees are strong and we have not experienced any material strikes or work stoppages recently, no assurances can be made that we will not experience these or other types of conflicts with labor unions, works councils, other groups representing employees or our employees generally, or that any future negotiations with our labor unions will not result in significant increases in our cost of labor. On July 28, 2012, our contract with the United Steelworkers at our Seneca Falls, NY location will expire. Negotiations to renew this contract have not yet begun. This union contract covered 387 employees as of December 31, 2011.

OVERVIEW OF BUSINESS SEGMENTS
Defense and Information Solutions
Our Defense segment is a major defense contractor and trusted provider of mission-critical products and services that support the Armed Services of the U.S. Government and its allies, as well as manufacturer of highly-engineered innovative technologies to meet the emerging requirements of U.S. government agencies and commercial customers. Our products are designed to serve needs around safety, security, intelligence and communication.
During 2010, we executed a strategic realignment of the Defense segment to better align with the emerging needs of its expanding global customer base, which is increasingly integrated and network-centric. The Defense segment was renamed ITT Defense and Information Solutions and the previous organizational structure, consisting of seven divisions, was consolidated into three larger divisions. The realignment

Customers
The principal customer for our Defense segment is the U.S. Government, specifically the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). A substantial portion of U.S. Government work is performed in the United States under prime contracts and subcontracts, some of which by statute are subject to profit limitations and all of which are subject to termination by the U.S. Government, although such terminations generally are rare. A portion of our business is classified by the U.S. Government and cannot be specifically described. The operating results of these classified programs are included in our Consolidated Financial Statements. The business risks associated with classified programs, as a general matter, do not differ materially from those of our other government programs and products.
We also serve as a contractor and supplier for other U.S. government agencies, including the intelligence community, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Homeland Security, and several first-responder agencies. In addition, we provide certain products to international governments through direct channels and the U.S. foreign military sales program. A smaller, but growing portion of our business is with commercial customers. The following table illustrates annual revenue for the Defense segment, as well as the approximate percentage of revenue by customer class.

Order Backlog
Funded order backlog, which represents unfilled firm orders for which funding has been authorized and appropriated by the customer, was $4.1 billion at December 31, 2010 compared to $5.1 billion at December 31, 2009. Certain defense programs have contract periods in excess of one year, as such we do not expect to fulfill all funded order backlog obligations during 2011; however, we do expect to satisfy a substantial portion. Unfunded order backlog, which represents unfunded firm orders and potential options on multi-year contracts, excluding protested awards and potential orders under indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contracts, was approximately $7.4 billion at December 31, 2010 as compared to approximately $4.9 billion at December 31, 2009. The level of order activity and related backlog associated with programs within the Defense segment can be affected by project evaluation cycles, the timing of government funding authorizations, the general timing of the budget approval process and non-linear sales fluctuations associated with certain long-term production contracts.Year-over-year comparisons could, at times, be impacted by these factors, among others.
U.S. Government Regulatory Matters
We act as a prime contractor or major subcontractor for numerous U.S. Government programs. As a result, we are subject to extensive regulations and requirements of the U.S. Government agencies and entities which govern these programs, including with respect to the award, administration and performance of contracts under such programs. We are also subject to certain unique business risks associated with U.S. Government program funding and appropriations and U.S. Government contracts, and with supplying technologically advanced, cutting-edge defense-related products and services to the U.S. Government.
U.S. Government contracts generally are subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), which sets forth policies, procedures and requirements for the acquisition of goods and services by the U.S. Government, agency-specific regulations that implement or supplement FAR, such as the DoD’s Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) and other applicable laws and regulations. These regulations impose a broad range of requirements, many of which are unique to government contracting, including various procurement,

7


import and export, security, contract pricing and cost, contract termination and adjustment, and audit requirements. A contractor’s failure to comply with these regulations and requirements could result in reductions to the value of contracts, contract modifications or termination, and the assessment of penalties and fines and lead to suspension or debarment, for cause, from government contracting or subcontracting for a period of time. In addition, government contractors are also subject to routine audits and investigations by U.S. Government agencies such as the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA). These agencies review a contractor’s performance under its contracts, cost structure and compliance with applicable laws, regulations and standards. The DCAA also reviews the adequacy of and a contractor’s compliance with its internal control systems and policies, including the contractor’s purchasing, property, estimating, compensation and management information systems.
U.S. Government contracts include both cost reimbursement and fixed-price contracts. Cost reimbursement contracts, subject to a contract-ceiling amount in certain cases, provide for the reimbursement of allowable costs plus the payment of a fee. These contracts fall into three basic types: (i) cost plus fixed fee contracts which provide for the payment of a fixed fee irrespective of the final cost of performance, (ii) cost plus incentive fee contracts which provide for increases or decreases in the fee, within specified limits, based upon actual results as compared to contractual targets relating to such factors as cost, performance and delivery schedule, and (iii) cost plus award fee contracts which provide for the payment of an award fee determined at the discretion of the customer based upon the performance of the contractor against pre-established criteria. Under cost reimbursement type contracts, the contractor is reimbursed periodically for allowable costs and is paid a portion of the fee based on contract progress. Some costs incident to performing contracts have been made partially or wholly unallowable for reimbursement by statute, FAR or other regulation. Examples of such costs include charitable contributions, certain merger and acquisition costs, lobbying costs, interest expense and certain litigation defense costs.
Fixed-price contracts are either firm fixed-price contracts or fixed-price incentive contracts. Under firm fixed-price contracts, the contractor agrees to perform a specific scope of work for a fixed price and as a result, benefits from cost savings and carries the burden of cost overruns. Under fixed-price incentive contracts, the contractor shares with the government savings accrued from contracts performed for less than target costs and costs incurred in excess of targets up to a negotiated ceiling price (which is higher than the target cost) and carries the entire burden of costs exceeding the negotiated ceiling price. Accordingly, under such incentive contracts, the contractor’s profit may also be adjusted up or down depending upon whether specified performance objectives are met. Under firm fixed-price and fixed-price incentive type contracts, the contractor usually receives either milestone payments based on a percentage of the total contract price or monthly progress payments generally based on a percentage of costs incurred. The remaining amount, including profits or incentive fees, is billed upon delivery and acceptance of end items under the contract.
U.S. Government contracts generally also permit the government to terminate the contract, in whole or in part, without prior notice, at the government’s convenience or for default based on performance. If a contract is terminated for convenience, the contractor is generally entitled to payments for its allowable costs and will receive some allowance for profit on the work performed. If a contract is terminated for default, the contractor is generally entitled to payments for its work that has been accepted by the government. The U.S. Government’s right to terminate its contracts has not had a material adverse effect upon our results of operations or financial condition.
U.S. Government programs generally are implemented by the award of individual contracts and subcontracts. Congress generally appropriates funds on a fiscal year basis even though a program may extend across several fiscal years. Consequently, programs are often only partially funded initially and additional funds are committed only as Congress makes further appropriations. The contracts and subcontracts under a program generally are subject to termination for convenience or adjustment if appropriations for such programs are not available or change. The U.S. Government is required to equitably adjust a contract price for additions or reductions in scope or other changes ordered by it.
We are also involved in U.S. Government programs which are classified by the U.S. Government and cannot be specifically described in this Annual Report onForm 10-K. The operating results of these classified programs are included in our Consolidated Financial Statements. The business risks and considerations associated with these classified programs generally do not differ materially from those of our other U.S. Government programs and products, and are subject to the same oversight and internal controls as other U.S. Government programs.
We are subject to government regulations and contract requirements which may differ from U.S. Government regulation with respect to our sales tonon-U.S. customers. Sales and income from international operations and investments are subject to U.S. Government laws, regulations and policies, including the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) and export laws and

8


regulations, as well as foreign government laws, regulations and procurement policies and practices, which may differ from U.S. Government regulation, including import-export control, investments, exchange controls, repatriation of earnings and requirements to expend a portion of program funds in-country. The export from the U.S. of many of our products may require the issuance of a license by either the U.S. Department of State under the Arms Export Control Act of 1976 (formerly the Foreign Military Sales Act) and its implementing regulations under the ITAR, the U.S. Department of Commerce under the Export Administration Act and its implementing regulations as kept in force by the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977 (IEEPA),and/or the U.S. Department of the Treasury under IEEPA or the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917. Such licenses may be denied for reasons of U.S. national security or foreign policy. In the case of certain exports of defense equipment and services, the Department of State must notify Congress at least15-60 days (depending on the identity of the importing country that will utilize the equipment and services) prior to authorizing such exports. During that time, Congress may take action to block or delay a proposed export by joint resolution which is subject to Presidential veto.
Competitive Conditions
We compete with many companies in the U.S. defense industry for a number of programs, both large and small, but primarily with Lockheed Martin Corporation, The Boeing Company, Raytheon Company, General Dynamics Corporation, L-3 Communications Corporation, SAIC Inc., Northrop Grumman Corporation, Harris Corporation and BAE Systems, Inc. Intense competition and long operating cycles are both key characteristics of our business and the defense industry. We also compete internationally against these same companies, as well as Thales Group, EADS N.V., Finmeccanica S.p.A., SAAB and many others. It is common in this industry for work on major programs to be shared among a number of companies. A company competing to be a prime contractor may, upon ultimate award of the contract to another party, serve as a subcontractor for the ultimate prime contracting party. It is not uncommon to compete for a contract award with a peer company and, simultaneously, perform as a supplier to or a customer of such competitor on other contracts. The nature of major defense programs, conducted under binding contracts, allows companies that perform well to benefit from a level of program continuity not common in many industries.
Our success in the competitive defense industry depends upon our ability to develop and market our products and services, as well as our ability to provide the people, technologies, facilities, equipment, and financial capacity needed to deliver those products and services with maximum efficiency. We must continue to maintain sources for raw materials, fabricated parts, electronic components, and major subassemblies. In this manufacturing and systems integration environment, effective oversight of subcontractors and suppliers is as vital to success as managing internal operations.
Similarly, there is intense competition among many companies in the information and services markets. Programs within the information and services market as compared to product-based programs are generally shorter in duration, more labor intensive and have extremely competitive margin rates. Competitors in the information and services markets include the defense industry participants mentioned above, as well as many other large and small entities with expertise in various specialized areas. Our ability to compete successfully in the information and services markets depends on a number of factors; most important is the capability to deploy skilled professionals, many requiring security clearances, at competitive prices across the diverse spectrum of these markets. Accordingly, we have implemented various workforce initiatives to ensure our success in attracting, developing and retaining sufficient resources to maintain or improve our competitive position within these markets.
Fluid Technology
Our Fluid segment provides critical products and services in markets that are driven by population growth, urbanization, increasing environmental concerns and regulation, and global infrastructure trends.

Competitive Conditions
We compete against large and well-established national and global competitors and, in some markets, against regional and local companies. The markets for our products are fragmented and highly competitive, with primary competitive drivers being price, reputation, quality, energy efficiency, timeliness of delivery and technical expertise, as well as contractual terms and previous installation history. Our ability to use our portfolio of products, solutions and services to meet customer needs is a competitive strength.
Our market approach is to create value for our customers throughout their procurement cycle. We continue to explore and develop potential new offerings in conjunction with our customers. In the early phases of project design, we endeavor to create value in optimizing the selection of equipment for the customer’s specific application, as we are capable of providing technical expertise on product and system capabilities even outside the scope of our specific products, solutions and services. After the equipment is constructed and delivered to the customer’s site, we continue to create value through our after-market capabilities by optimizing the performance of the equipment over its operational life.
Competition in the water transport and treatment technologies markets focuses on product performance and design, quality, delivery, and price. In the sale of products and services, we benefit from our large installed base of pumps, valves and other equipment, which continually require maintenance, repair and replacement parts due to the nature of the products and the conditions under which they operate. Timeliness of delivery, quality and the proximity of service centers are important customer considerations when selecting a provider for after-market products and services. In geographic regions where we are locally positioned to provide a quick response, customers have traditionally relied on us, rather than our competitors, for after-market products relating to our highly engineered and customized products.
Competition in commercial and residential technologies markets focuses on trade names, product performance, quality, and price. We compete by offering a wide variety of innovative and high-quality products, which are competitively priced. We believe our distribution channels and reputation for quality also contribute to our market position.
In the pursuit of large industrial capital projects, competitive drivers and competition vary depending on the application and products involved. Industries experiencing slow growth generally tend to have a competitive environment more heavily influenced by price due to supply outweighing demand, and price competition tends to be more significant for original equipment orders than after-market services. Considering the domestic and global economic environments in 2010 and current forecasts for 2011, pricing was and, we believe, may continue to be a particularly influential competitive factor.
Motion & Flow Control
Our Motion & Flow segment delivers highly engineered, durable components that succeed in challenging environments where the cost of failure is high. The segment manufactures high-performance shock absorbers and brake friction materials for the transportation industry, switch applications for the industrial and aerospace industries, electrical connectors used in telecommunications, computers, aerospace, medical and industrial applications, and a wide range of pumpsfactors that could materially affect future developments and tailored products for marine, food & beverageperformance. Because of these factors, past performance may not be a reliable indicator of future results. Set forth below and general industrial markets. The segment primarily serves the high end of its markets, with brand recognition and a focus on new product development and operational excellence. The following table illustrates the annual revenue for the Motion & Flow segment and the percentage of revenue by segment division.

Order Backlog
Order backlog as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $398 and $376, respectively. Orders are filled based on customer delivery schedules that typically cover no longer than three months. We expect that substantially all backlog will be recognized as revenue during 2011.
Competitive Conditions
In Motion & Flow, competition is encountered in substantially all areas of its business and is therefore a significant factor. This competitive environment has resulted in increased pressure to reduce pricing and maintain a continuous focus on cost structures. We compete against large and well-established national and global competitors and, in some markets, against regional and local companies. The markets for our products are fragmented and highly competitive, with primary competitive drivers being price, product capability, product quality, delivery, customer service and technical expertise. We are focused on differentiated new product development and leveraging our strong customer relationships and improved cost structures, striving to maintain our competitive advantage.
The automotive and public transportation industries are highly competitive in nature. We compete with many manufacturers and distributors globally to supply OEMs and to serve the after-market. Competition is driven by price, technology, product quality, timeliness of delivery, customer service and breadth of products. Our customer and product-specific product range has allowed us to satisfy the precise technical needs of our customers. Through our continuous pursuit and development of market-leading friction materials andstate-of-the-art manufacturing processes, we have become a leading supplier to global automotive manufacturers.
The worldwide connectors industry is fragmented and highly competitive. Competition is mainly driven by technological innovation, price, delivery and customer service. We compete against many companies of varied size and scope by offering a broad range of differentiated and high-quality products, which are competitively priced. We believe our robust design and value-based product development, coupled with our global engineering, manufacturing and distribution

12


capabilities, drive a focus on our customers from design inception through production to final delivery and allow for continued new market expansion.
As a world leader in the design, manufacturing and supply of commercial, military, industrial and aerospace products such as switches, actuators, pumps and valves, Motion & Flow faces competition from many different companies or divisions thereof in substantially all areas of business. We compete primarily on the basis of product quality and innovation, reputation, customer service and price competitiveness. Sales of our reliable and high-quality products in the industrial and aerospace markets are made to both end-users and our large client base of OEMs andsub-tier suppliers who trust our products to support their program applications as designed. Relationships developed with these key customers based on our technological and engineering capabilities, quality performance, delivery, and service have enabled us to obtain business on OEM programs for their systems and components and subsequently obtain the follow-on after-market business.
Motion & Flow also produces and sells pumps and related products for the marine & leisure, food & beverage and general industrial markets. A focus on product reliability and new product innovation and development has allowed us to compete effectively, to cultivate and maintain key customer relationships and to serve and to expand into many niche and new markets.
 Item 1A.  RISK FACTORS
We are subject to various risks and uncertainties relating to or arising out of the nature of our businesses, financial conditions and results of operations, including those discussed below, which may affect the value of our common stock. We believe the risks discussed below are currently the most significant. If any of the events or circumstances described in the following risk factors occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations may suffer, and the trading price of our common stock could decline.
Spinoff Transactions
The proposed spinoffs of our water and defense businesses are contingent upon the satisfaction of a number of conditions, may require significant time and attention of our management, may not achieve the intended results, and may present difficulties that could have an adverse effect on us.
We expectcause our actual results to file a Registration Statement on Form 10 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) with respect to the distribution to our stockholders of all of the shares of common stock of two of our subsidiaries that would hold, directly or indirectly, the assets and liabilities for our water-related and defense-related businesses, respectively. Completion of the spinoff transactions will be contingent upon the approval of our Board of Directors, a favorable rulingdiffer materially from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS),results contemplated by the effectiveness of each of the Registration Statements on Form 10 and other conditions. For these and other reasons, the spinoff transactions may not be completed or may not be completed prior to the end of the year. Additionally, execution of the proposed spinoff transactions may requireforward-looking statements contained in this document. The most significant time and attention from management, which could distract management from the operation offactors affecting our business and operations include the execution of our other strategic initiatives. Our employees may also be distracted due to uncertainty about their future roles with each of the separate companies pending the completion of the spinoff transactions. Further, if the spinoff transactions are completed, each of these transactions may not achieve the intended results. Any such difficulties could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
The spinoff transactions could result in substantial tax liability.following:
We will request a private letter ruling from the IRS substantially to the effect that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, each of the spinoff transactions and certain related transactions will qualify under Sections 355and/or 368 of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code). Our receipt of the private letter ruling will be a condition to the completion of the spinoffs. If the factual assumptions or representations made in the private letter ruling request are inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect, then we will not be able to rely on the ruling. Furthermore, the IRS will not rule on whether a distribution such as the spinoff satisfies certain requirements necessary to obtain tax-free treatment under Section 355 of the Code. Rather, the private letter ruling will be based on representations by us that those requirements have been satisfied, and any inaccuracy in those representations could invalidate the ruling. The spinoffs will also be conditioned on our receipt of an opinion of outside counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to us, substantially to the effect that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the spinoffs and certain related transactions will qualify under Sections 355and/or 368 of the Code. The opinion will rely on, among other things, the continuing validity of the private letter ruling and various assumptions and representations as to factual matters made by each of the spinoff companies and us which, if inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect, would jeopardize the conclusions reached by such counsel in its opinion. The opinion will not be binding on the IRS or the courts, and there can be no assurance that the IRS or the courts will not challenge

13


the conclusions stated in the opinion or that any such challenge would not prevail.
If, notwithstanding receipt of the private letter ruling and opinion, the spinoff transactions were determined to be a taxable transaction, each U.S. holder of our common stock who receives shares of the spinoff companies in the spinoff transactions would generally be treated as receiving a taxable distribution of property in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares of the spinoff company received. That distribution would be taxable to each such stockholder as a dividend to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits. For each such stockholder, any amount that exceeded our earnings and profits would be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of such stockholder’s tax basis in our shares of common stock with any remaining amount being taxed as a capital gain. In addition, if certain related transactions were to fail to qualify for tax-free treatment, the spinoff companies would be treated as if they had each sold part of their respective assets (which will be retained by us) in a taxable sale for fair market value and we would be treated as receiving such assets from the spinoff companies as a taxable dividend.
Under the terms of the tax sharing agreement we will determine which company will be responsible for any taxes imposed by the spinoff transactions.
If the spinoff transactions are completed, our operational and financial profile will change and we will be a smaller, less diversified company than ITT’s current operations.
If consummated, the proposed spinoff transactions will result in ITT being a smaller, less diversified company than we currently are with a narrower business focus than we currently have. We will have a more limited business with greater concentration in the industrial products market and may be more vulnerable to changing market conditions, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the diversification of revenues, costs, and cash flows will diminish. As such, it is possible that our results of operations, cash flows, working capital and financing requirements may be subject to increased volatility. Our operations may also be impacted by a limited ability to attract new employees in a timely manner.
If the proposed spinoff transactions are consummated, there may be substantial changes in our stockholder base, which may cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate following the proposed spinoffs.
Investors holding our common stock may hold our common stock because of a decision to invest in a company that operates in multiple markets with a diversified commercial and defense portfolio. If the proposed spinoff transactions are consummated, shares of our common stock will represent an investment in a smaller company with its business concentrated in the engineered industrial products industry. These changes may not match some holders’ investment strategies or meet minimum criteria for inclusion in stock market indices, which could cause investors to sell their shares of our common stock. Excessive selling pressure could cause the market price of our common stock to decrease following the consummation of the proposed spinoff.
Business and Operating Risks
We are dependent on the U.S. Government for a substantial portion of our revenue.
Approximately 46% of our 2010 revenue was derived from products and services ultimately sold to the U.S. Government, including the Department of Defense (DoD), and our results are therefore affected by, among other things, the annual federal budget, appropriations made to defense programs, spending levels and the timing of appropriations for defense programs. DoD budget and priorities impacting the programs can be affected by external threats to our national security, funding for on-going operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, future priorities of the current presidential administration, and the overall health of the U.S. and world economies. Our future results may be impacted by our ability to receive awards under new and on-going defense programs, as well as other U.S. Government programs, our ability to develop and market products and services under these programs, as well as the variability of timing and size of certain key orders. The U.S. Government has the ability to terminate contracts for convenience or for default; therefore, our future results could be materially impacted by the termination or failure to fund one or more significant contracts by the U.S. Government. Since many of our government contracts are fixed-price, increased costs which cannot be justified as an increase to the contract value exposes the risk of reduced profitability and the potential loss of future business. In addition, numerous contracts are subject to security and facility clearances, as well as export licenses, which, if withdrawn, restricted or made unavailable, would adversely affect our business. Changes in U.S. Government contracting regulations, and related governmental investigations could increase our costs of regulatory compliance and could have a negative effect on our brand name and on our ability to win new business.

Our exposure to pending and future asbestos claims and related assets, liabilities, and cash flows are subject to significant uncertainties, which could have

14


adverse effects on our financial condition,position, results of operations and cash flows.

ITT, including its subsidiary Goulds Pumps, Inc., has been joined as a defendant in numerous lawsuits and claims in which the plaintiffs claim damages for personal injury arising from exposure to asbestos in connection with certain products sold or distributed that may have contained asbestos. We expect to be named as defendants in similar actions in the future. We record an estimated liability related to pending claims and claims estimated to be received over the next ten years based on a number of key assumptions, including the plaintiffs’ propensity to sue, claim acceptance rates, disease type, settlement values and defense costs. These assumptions are derived from ITT’s recent experience and reflect the Company’s expectations about future claim activities. These assumptions about the future may or may not prove accurate, and accordingly, the Company may incur additional liabilities in the future. A change in one or more of the inputs used to estimate the asbestos liability could materially change the estimated liability and associated cash flows for pending claims and those estimated to be filed in the next 10 years. Although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating those costs at this time.

We record an asset that represents our best estimate of probable recoveries from insurers or other responsible parties for the estimated asbestos liabilities. There are significant assumptions made in developing estimates of asbestos-related recoveries, such as policy triggers, policy or contract interpretation, the methodology for allocating claims to

14


policies, and the continued solvency of the Company’s insurers or other responsible parties. Certain of our primary coverage in place agreements are expected to exhaust in the next twelve months, which may result in higher net cash outflows for the short-term. The assumptions underlying the recorded asset may not prove accurate, and as such, actual performance by our insurers and other responsible parties could result in lower receivables or cash flows expected to reduce the Company’s asbestos costs.

Due to these uncertainties, as well as our inability to reasonably estimate any additional asbestos liability for claims that may be filed beyond the next 10 years, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of the cost, nor potential recoveries, of resolving the pending and all unasserted asbestos claims. Additionally, we believe it is possible that the cost of asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, net of expected recoveries, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations orand cash flows.

Many uncertainties exist surrounding asbestos litigation, and the Company will continue to evaluate its estimated asbestos-related liability and corresponding estimated insurance reimbursement as well as the underlying assumptions and process used to derive these amounts. Changes in estimates related to these uncertainties may result in increases or decreases to the net asbestos liability, particularly if the quality or number of claims or settlement or defense costs change significantly, or if there are significant developments in the trend of case law or court procedures, or if legislation or another alternative solution is implemented; however, the Company is currently unable to estimate such future changes. Although the resolution of asbestos claims takes many years, the effect of changes in our estimates related to our pending or estimated future claims in any given period could be material to our results of operations, financial position and cash flow.

In addition, as part of the Distribution, ITT indemnified Exelis and Xylem with respect to asserted and unasserted asbestos claims that relate to the presence or alleged presence of asbestos in products manufactured, repaired or sold prior to the Distribution Date, subject to limited exceptions.

Our operating results and our ability to maintain liquidity or procure capital may be adversely affected by unfavorable economic and capital market conditions and the uncertain geopolitical environment.

We have experienced and expect to continue to experience fluctuations in revenues and operating results due to economic and business cycles. Our international operations, including sales of U.S. exports, comprise a growing portion of our operations and are a strategic focus for continued future growth. Our strategy calls for increasing sales to operations in overseas markets, including developing markets such as Central

and South America, China, India and the Middle East. In 2011, approximately 63% of our total sales were to customers operating outside of the United States.

Important factors impacting our businesses include the overall strength of these economies and our customers’ confidence in both local and global macro economic conditions, industrial spending, interest rates, availability of commercial financing for our customers and end-users and unemployment rates. A slowdown or downturn in these financial or macro economic conditions could have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flow.

We may be adversely affected by disruptions in financial markets or downturns in economic activity in specific countries or regions, or in the various industries in which the Company operates or be subject to adverse changes in the availability and cost of capital, interest rates, tax rates, or regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Many of the industries in which we operate are subject to specific industry and general economic cycles. We serve a diverse mix of customers in global infrastructure industries which can be volatile. The industries on which our business is most reliant include oil & gas, energy & mining, automotive, truck, trailer and public bus and rail transportation, aerospace and defense, electronics, and related industrial markets each of which are impacted.

Instability in the global credit markets, including the recent European economic and financial turmoil related to sovereign debt issues in certain countries and the instability in the geopolitical environment in many parts of the world, may continue to put pressure on global economic conditions. The world has recently experienced a global macroeconomic downturn, and if global economic and market conditions, or economic conditions in key markets, remain uncertain or deteriorate further, we may experience material impacts on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flow. If, for any reason, we lose access to our currently available lines of credit, or if we are required to raise additional capital, we may be unable to do so or we may be able to do so only on unfavorable terms.

Adverse changes to financial conditions could jeopardize certain counterparty obligations, including those of our insurers and customers. We closely monitor the credit worthiness of our insurers and customers and evaluate their ability to service their obligations to us. The tightening of credit markets may reduce funds available to our customers to pay for or buy our products and services for an unknown, but perhaps lengthy, period. As it relates to our customers’ ability to pay for products and services, we have not experienced any significant negative consequences as a result of the recent economic downturn.

 

15


Should market conditions deteriorate, it may result in the delay or cancellation of orders from our customers or potential customers and adversely affect our revenues and our ability to collect insurer and customer receivables, manage inventory levels, and maintain current levels of profitability. Restrictive credit markets may also result in customers extending terms for payment and may result in our having higher customer receivables with increased default rates.

Economic and other risks associated with international sales and operations could adversely affect our business.

Both our sales from international operations and export sales are subject in varying degrees to risks inherent to doing business outside the United States. These risks include the following:

n

Possibility of unfavorable circumstances arising from host country laws or regulations;

n

Currency exchange rate fluctuations and restrictions on currency repatriation;

n

Potential negative consequences from changes to taxation policies;

n

The disruption of operations from labor and political disturbances;

n

Our ability to hire and maintain qualified staff in these regions; and

n

Changes in tariff and trade barriers and import and export licensing requirements.

The cost of compliance with increasingly complex and often conflicting regulations worldwide can also impair our flexibility in modifying product, marketing, pricing, or other strategies for growing our businesses, as well as our ability to improve productivity and maintain acceptable operating margins.

In addition to the general risks that we face outside the United States, we now conduct more of our operations in emerging markets than we have in the past, which could involve additional uncertainties for us, including risks that governments may impose limitations on our ability to repatriate funds; governments may impose withholding or other taxes on remittances and other payments to us, or the amount of any such taxes may increase; governments may seek to nationalize our assets; or governments may impose or increase investment barriers or other restrictions affecting our business. In addition, emerging markets pose other uncertainties, including the protection of our intellectual property, pressure on the pricing of our products, and risks of political instability.

A substantial portion of our cash is generated by our foreign subsidiaries and repatriation of that cash to the United

States may be inefficient from a tax perspective. Any payment of distributions, loans or advances to us by our foreign subsidiaries could be subject to restrictions on, or taxation of, dividends on repatriation of earnings under applicable local law, monetary transfer restrictions and foreign currency exchange regulations in the jurisdictions in which our subsidiaries operate.

We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly with respect to the Euro, Czech Kurona, Chinese Renminbi, South Korean Won, Mexican Peso, British Pound, Brazilian Real, Australian Dollar and Canadian Dollar. As we continue to grow our business internationally, our operating results could be affected by the relative strength of the European, Asian and developing economies and the impact of currency exchange rate fluctuations. Any significant change in the value of currencies of the countries in which we do business relative to the value of the U.S. Dollar could affect our ability to sell products competitively and control our cost structure, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations and cash flow.

Failure to compete successfully in our markets could adversely affect our business.

We provide products and services into competitive markets. We believe the principal points of competition in our markets are product performance, reliability and innovation, application expertise, brand reputation, energy efficiency, product life cycle cost, timeliness of delivery, proximity of service centers, effectiveness of our distribution channels and price.

Maintaining and improving our competitive position will require continued investment by us in manufacturing, research and development, engineering, marketing, customer service and support, and our distribution networks. We may not be successful in maintaining our competitive position. Our competitors may develop products that are superior to our products, or may develop more efficient or effective methods of providing products and services or may adapt more quickly than we do to new technologies or evolving customer requirements. Pricing pressures also could cause us to adjust the prices of certain products to stay competitive. We may not be able to compete successfully with existing or new competitors.

Our operating costs are subject to fluctuations, particularly due to changes in commodity prices, raw materials, energy and related utilities, freight, and cost of labor. In order to remain competitive, we may not be able to recuperate all or a portion of these higher costs from our customers through product price increases. Further, our ability to realize financial benefits from Six Sigma and Lean projects may not be able to mitigate fully or in part these manufacturing and operating cost increases and, as a result, could negatively impact our profitability.

 

16


If we fail to manage the distribution of our products and services properly, our revenue, gross margin and profitability could suffer.

We use a variety of distribution methods to sell our products and services, including third-party distributors and resellers. Successfully managing the interaction of our distributors and resellers is a complex process as we sell a broad mix of products through a network of over 500 distributors and resellers. Moreover, since each distribution method has distinct risks and gross margins, our failure to implement the most advantageous balance in the delivery model for our products and services could adversely affect our revenue and gross margins and therefore our profitability.

Our financial results could be materially adversely affected due to the loss of a distributor, channel conflicts or if the financial conditions of our channel partners were to weaken. Our future operating results may be adversely affected by any conflicts that might arise between our various sales channels, the loss or deterioration of any distribution or reseller arrangement. In particular, one distributor accounts for approximately 31% of Motion Technologies revenues and approximately 9% of consolidated ITT revenue. Our contract with this distributor consists of several subcontracts which are scheduled to expire at various times between 2014 and 2018. Moreover, some of our distributors may have insufficient financial resources and may not be able to withstand changes in business conditions, including economic weakness. Considerable trade receivables are outstanding with our distribution partners. Revenue from indirect sales could suffer, and we could experience disruptions in distribution if our distributors’ financial conditions, abilities to borrow funds in the credit markets or operations weaken.

Further, we must manage inventory effectively, particularly with respect to sales to distributors, which involves forecasting demand and potential pricing issues. Distributors may increase orders during periods of product shortages, cancel orders if their inventory is too high or delay orders in anticipation of new products. Distributors also may adjust their orders in response to the supply of our products and the products of our competitors and seasonal fluctuations in end-user demand. Our reliance on indirect distribution methods may reduce visibility to demand and potential pricing issues, and therefore make forecasting more difficult. If we have excess or obsolete inventory, we may have to reduce our prices and write down inventory. Moreover, our use of indirect distribution channels may limit our willingness or ability to adjust prices quickly and otherwise to respond to pricing changes by competitors.

Our business could be adversely affected by raw material price volatility and the inability of key suppliers to meet quality and delivery requirements.

Our business relies on third-party suppliers for raw materials, components, and contract manufacturing services to produce our products. The supply of raw materials to the Company and to its component parts suppliers and the supply of castings, motors, and other critical components could be interrupted for a variety of reasons, including availability and pricing. Prices for raw materials necessary for production have fluctuated significantly in the past and significant increases could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations and profit margins. Due to pricing pressure or other factors, the Company may not be able to pass along increased raw material and components parts prices to its customers in the form of price increases or its ability to do so could be delayed. Consequently, its results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

For most of our products, we have existing alternate sources of supply, or such materials are readily available. In some instances we depend on a single source of supply, manufacturing or assembly or participate in commodity markets that may be subject to a limited number of suppliers. Delays in obtaining supplies may result from a number of factors affecting our suppliers, including production interruptions at suppliers, capacity constraints, labor disputes, the impaired financial condition of a particular supplier, the ability of suppliers to meet regulatory requirements, and suppliers’ allocations to other purchasers. Any delay in our suppliers’ abilities to provide us with sufficient quality and flow of materials, price increases, or decreased availability of raw materials or commodities could impair our ability to deliver products to our customers and, accordingly, could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial position.

Changes in our effective tax rates as a result of changes in the geographic earnings mix, tax examinations or disputes, tax authority rulings, or changes in the tax laws applicable to us may adversely affect our financial results.

The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States and in various foreign jurisdictions. We exercise significant judgment in calculating our provision for income taxes and other tax liabilities. In the ordinary course of our business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Furthermore, changes in domestic or foreign income tax laws and regulations, or their interpretation, could result in higher or lower income tax rates assessed or changes in the taxability of certain sales or the deductibility of certain expenses, thereby affecting our income tax expense and profitability.

17


Given the global nature of our business, a number of factors may increase our future effective tax rates, including:

n

Decisions to repatriate non-U.S. earnings for which we have not previously provided for U.S. income taxes;

n

Changes in the geographic mix of our profits among jurisdictions with differing statutory income tax rates;

n

Sustainability of historical income tax rates in the jurisdictions in which we conduct business;

n

Changes in tax laws applicable to us;

n

The resolution of issues arising from tax audits with various tax authorities; and

n

Changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in deferred tax valuation allowances.

The amount of income taxes and other taxes are subject to ongoing audits by U.S. federal, state and local tax authorities and by non-U.S. authorities. If these audits result in assessments different from amounts recorded, future financial results may include unfavorable tax adjustments. We are currently under examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities, and we may be subject to additional examinations in the future. The tax authorities may disagree with our tax treatment of certain material items and thereby increase our tax liability. Failure to sustain our position in these matters could result in a material and adverse effect on our cash flow and financial position.

Any significant increase in our future effective tax rates could reduce net income for future periods.

The level of returns on postretirement benefit plan assets, changes in interest rates and other factors could affect our earnings and cash flows in future periods.

A substantial portion of our current and retired employee population is covered by pension and other employee-related defined benefit plans (collectively, postretirement benefit plans). We may experience significant fluctuations in costs related to postretirement benefit plans as a result of macro-economicmacroeconomic factors, such as interest rates, that are beyond our control. The cost of our postretirement plans is incurred over long periods of time and involves various factors and uncertainties during those periods, which can be volatile and unpredictable, including the rates of return on postretirement benefit plan assets, discount rates used to calculate liabilities and expenses, rates of future compensation increases, and trends for future medical costs. Management develops each assumption using relevant Company experience in conjunction with market-related data. Our liquidity, financial position, including shareholders’ equity, and results of operations could be materially affected by significant changes in key economic indicators, financial market volatility, future legislation and other governmental regulatory actions.

We make contributions to fund our postretirement benefit plans when considered necessary or advantageous to do so. The macro-economic factors discussed above, including the return on postretirement benefit plan assets and the minimum funding requirements established by local government funding or taxtaxing authorities, or established by other agreement, may influence future funding requirements. A significant decline in the fair value of our plan assets, or other adverse changes to our overall pension and other employee-related benefit plans could require us to make significantincreased funding contributions and could affect cash flows in future periods.

U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards govern the extent to which postretirement costs and plan contributions are allocable to and recoverable under contracts with the U.S. Government. As a result, we have sought and expect to continue to seek reimbursement from the DoD for a portion of our postretirement costs and plan contributions.

We rely on our information systems in our operations. Security breaches could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Our information system structure could make it more difficult to cost-effectively implement changes.

The efficient operation of our business is dependent on computer hardware and software systems. Even the most well-protected information systems are vulnerable to internal and external security breaches including those by those computer hackers and cyber terrorists. The unavailability of theour information systems, the failure of these systems to perform as anticipated for any reason or any significant breach of security could disrupt our business and could result in decreased performance and

15


increased overhead costs, causing an adverse effect on our business, and the consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
position.

Our information systems infrastructure is centralized, but our information system applications are both centralized and decentralized. The centralized infrastructure presents a risk in that a potential security breach could have a company-wide impact. The decentralized whichapplications could result in significant replacement costs were the company to decide to replace a number of the independent operating systems or consolidate operating systems. The inter-relationship of information systems also presents various risks, includingan additional risk when upgrading or replacing information systems.

Risk Relating to the Distribution

Following the Distribution, we are a smaller, more focused company and may be more susceptible to market fluctuations, increased costs and less favorable purchasing terms.

As a larger company prior to the Distribution we were able to enjoy certain benefits from operating diversity and purchasing leverage. Following the Distribution, we are a smaller company and as a result there is a risk that we may be slower or less ablemore susceptible to identify or react to problems affecting a key businessmarket fluctuations and other adverse events than we would have otherwise been if we were still a part of a larger and more operationally diverse company. We may also experience

18


increased costs and less favorable terms as a result of our inability to continue to leverage the purchasing spend of our former businesses. Prior to the Distribution we negotiated favorable pricing terms with many of our suppliers, some of which have volume-based pricing. In the future, as we establish new pricing terms, our reduced volume demand could negatively impact future pricing from suppliers. All of these outcomes may result in our products being more costly to manufacture and less competitive. Although we cannot predict the extent of any such increased costs, it is possible that such costs could have a negative impact on our business and results of operations.

In connection with the Distribution, Exelis and Xylem indemnified us for certain liabilities and we indemnified Exelis and Xylem for certain liabilities. This indemnity may not be sufficient to insure us against the full amount of the liabilities assumed by each of Exelis and Xylem and each of Exelis and Xylem may be unable to satisfy its indemnification obligations to us in a more centralized environment.the future.

As part of the Distribution Agreement, ITT, Exelis, and Xylem indemnified each other with respect to such parties’ assumed or retained liabilities pursuant to the Distribution Agreement and breaches of the Distribution Agreement or related spin agreements. There can be no assurance that the indemnity from Exelis and Xylem will be sufficient to protect us against the full amount of these and other liabilities, or that each of Exelis and Xylem will be able to fully satisfy its indemnification obligations. Third-parties could also seek to hold us responsible for any of the liabilities that each of Exelis and Xylem has agreed to assume. Even if we ultimately succeed in recovering from Exelis and Xylem any amounts for which we are held liable, we may be temporarily required to bear these losses ourselves. In addition, “company-wide” business initiatives, such as the integrationperformance on indemnities that we provided Exelis and Xylem may be significant and could negatively impact our business. Each of information technology systems, or the formation of a technology system impacting different parts of our business, are often more challenging and costly to implement, and their risk of failure higher, than they would be in a more centralized environment. Depending on the nature of the initiative in question, such failurethese risks could materially adverselynegatively affect our business, results of operations and financial conditionposition.

We may be responsible for U.S. Federal income tax liabilities that relate to the Distribution.

In connection with the Distribution, we received an U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Ruling stating that ITT and its shareholders will not recognize any taxable income, gain, or loss for U.S. Federal income tax purposes as a result of the Distribution. The IRS Ruling, while generally binding upon the IRS, is based on certain factual statements and representations. If any such factual statements or representations were incomplete or untrue in any material respect, or if the facts on which the IRS Ruling was based are materially different from the facts at the time of the Distribution, the IRS could modify or revoke the IRS Ruling retroactively.

Certain requirements for tax-free treatment that are not covered in the IRS Ruling are addressed in an opinion of counsel delivered in connection with the Distribution. An opinion of counsel is not binding on the IRS. Accordingly, the IRS may reach conclusions with respect to the Distribution that are different from the conclusions reached in the opinion. Like the IRS Ruling, the opinion is based on certain factual statements and representations, which, if incomplete or untrue in any material respect, could alter counsel’s conclusions.

If all or a portion of the Distribution does not qualify as a tax-free transaction because any of the factual statements or representations in the IRS Ruling or the legal opinion are incomplete or untrue, or because the facts upon which the IRS Ruling is based are materially different from the facts at the time of the Distribution, ITT would recognize a substantial gain for U.S. Federal income tax purposes. In such case, under U.S. Treasury regulations, each member of the ITT consolidated group at the time of the Distribution would be severally liable for the resulting entire amount of any U.S. Federal income tax liability.

Even if the Distribution otherwise qualifies as a tax-free transaction for U.S. Federal income tax purposes, the Distribution will be taxable to ITT (but not to ITT shareholders) pursuant to Section 355(e) of the Internal Revenue Code if there are one or more acquisitions (including issuances) of the stock of ITT, Exelis Inc. or Xylem Inc., representing 50% or more, measured by vote or value, of the then-outstanding stock of any such corporation, and the acquisition or acquisitions are deemed to be part of a plan or series of related transactions that include the Distribution. Any acquisition of ITT, Exelis Inc. or Xylem Inc. common stock within two years before or after the Distribution (with exceptions, including public trading by less-than-5% shareholders and certain compensatory stock issuances) generally will be presumed to be part of such a plan unless that presumption is rebutted. The tax liability resulting from the application of Section 355(e) would be substantial. In addition, under U.S. Treasury regulations, each member of the ITT consolidated group at the time of the Distribution would be severally liable for the resulting U.S. Federal income tax liability.

Each of Exelis and Xylem has agreed not to enter into any transaction that could cause any portion of the Distribution to be taxable to ITT, including under Section 355(e). Pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement entered into in connection with the Distribution, ITT, Exelis and Xylem have agreed to indemnify each other for any tax liabilities resulting from such transactions, and ITT, Exelis and Xylem have agreed to indemnify each other for any tax liabilities resulting from such transactions entered into by them. These obligations may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company.

The Distribution may expose us to potential liabilities arising out of state and federal fraudulent conveyance laws and legal distribution requirements.

While unlikely, the Distribution could also be challenged under state corporate distribution statutes. Under the Indiana Business Corporation Law, a corporation may not make distributions to its shareholders if, after giving effect to the distribution, (i) the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or (ii) the corporation’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities. No assurance can be given that a court will not later determine that the distribution of our shares in connection with the Distribution was unlawful.

No assurance can be given as to what standard a court would apply to determine insolvency or that a court would determine that we were solvent at the time of or after giving effect to the Distribution.

Under the Distribution Agreement, from and after the Distribution, we will be responsible for the debts, liabilities and other obligations related to the business or businesses which we own and operate following the consummation of the Distribution. Although we do not expect to be liable for any of these or other obligations not expressly assumed by us pursuant to the Distribution Agreement, it is possible that we could be required to assume responsibility for certain obligations retained by Exelis or Xylem should Exelis or Xylem fail to pay or perform its retained obligations. In addition, we will be subject to additional liability if we are unsuccessful in defending the complaint brought by the Ad Hoc Committee of Bondholders alleging breach of the early redemption provisions of bonds issued in 2009.

Other Risks, Including Litigation and Regulatory Risk

Long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets, represent a significant portion of our assets and any impairment of these assets could negatively impact our results of operations.

Our business could

At December 31, 2011, our long-lived assets, representing fixed assets, goodwill and other intangible assets, were approximately $922, net of accumulated amortization, which represented approximately 25% of our total assets. Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment on an annual basis, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be adversely affected by raw material price volatilityrecoverable. We also review the carrying value of finite-lived tangible and intangible assets for impairment when impairment indicators arise. We estimate the inabilityfair value of key suppliers to meet quality and delivery requirements.

Our business relies on third-party suppliers, contract manufacturing and commodity markets to secure raw materials, parts and componentsreporting units used in the goodwill impairment test and indefinite-lived intangible assets using an income approach, and as a result the fair value measurements depend on revenue

growth rates, future operating margin assumptions, risk-adjusted discount rates, assumed royalty rates, future economic and market conditions, and identification of appropriate market comparable data. Because of the significance of our products. We are exposed to volatility in the priceslong-lived assets, including goodwill and availabilityother intangible assets, any future impairment of these materials. In some instances, we depend upon a single source of supply, manufacturing or assembly or participate in commodity markets that may be subject to allocations of limited supplies by suppliers. Delays in obtaining supplies may result from a number of factors affecting our suppliers, including capacity constraints, labor disputes, the impaired financial condition of a particular supplier, suppliers’ allocations to other purchasers, ability to meet regulatory requirements, weather emergencies or acts of war or terrorism. Any delay in our suppliers’ abilities to provide us with necessary materials, price increases, or decreased availability of raw materials or commodities could impair our ability to deliver products to our customers and, accordingly,assets could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Other Risks, including Litigation and Regulatory Risk
The effects of changes in worldwide economic and capital markets conditions may significantly affect our revenue, profitability, results of operations and our ability to maintain liquidity or procure capital.
The Company’s business may be adversely affected by factors in the United States and other countries that are beyond its control, such as disruptions in financial markets or downturns in economic activity in specific countries or regions, or in the various industries in which the Company operates; social, political or labor conditions in specific countries or regions; or adverse changes in the availability and cost of capital, interest rates, tax rates, or regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. If, for any reason, we lose access to our currently available lines of credit, or if we are required to raise additional capital, we may be unable to do so in the current credit and stock market environment, or we may be able to do so only on unfavorable terms.
Adverse changes to financial conditions could jeopardize certain counterparty obligations, including those of our insurers and financial institutions and other third parties. The tightening of credit markets may reduce the funds available to our customers to buy our products and services for an unknown, but perhaps lengthy, period. Restrictive credit markets may also result in customers extending times for payment and may result in our having higher customer receivables with increased default rates. General concerns about the fundamental soundness of domestic and foreign economies may also cause customers to reduce consumption even in a stable marketplace.
Many of the businesses in which we operate are subject to specific industry and general economic cycles. Certain businesses are subject to industry cycles, including but not limited to the residential and commercial real estate, construction, oil and gas, mining and minerals, transportation, automotive and aerospace industries. Downturns in these industries could adversely affect portions of our businesses.

We are subject to laws, regulations and potential liability relating to claims, complaints and proceedings, including those related to antitrust, environmental, product and other matters.

We are subject to various laws, ordinances, regulations and other requirements of government authorities in foreign countries and in the United States and in foreign countries, any violations of whichor failure to comply with securities laws, trade or tax rules or similar regulations could create a substantial liability for us, and also could cause harm to our reputation. Changes in laws, ordinances, regulations or other government policies, the nature, timing, and effect of which are uncertain, may significantly increase our expenses and liabilities.

From time to time we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our businesses. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to environmental liabilities, product liability, personal injury claims, employment and pension matters government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes, sometimes related to acquisitions or divestitures. Additionally, we may become subject to significant claims of which we are currently unaware or the claims of which we are aware may result in our incurring a significantly greater liability than we anticipate or can estimate.

Risks related to international operations include exchange control regulations, wage and price controls, employment regulations, foreign investment laws, import, export and other trade restrictions, changes in regulations regarding transactions with state-owned enterprises, nationalization of private enterprises, government instability, our ability to hire and maintain qualified staff in these regions and maintaining the safety of our employees. The cost of compliance with increasingly complex and often conflicting regulations worldwide can also impair our flexibility in modifying product, marketing, pricing, or other strategies for growing our businesses,criminal sanctions as well as facility shutdowns to address violations, and may require the installation of costly pollution control equipment or operational changes to limit emissions or discharges.

Failure to comply with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer ProtectionU.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (Dodd-Frank Act). Thisor other applicable anti-corruption legislation affects comprehensive changes to the regulation of financial services in the United States and will subject us to additional federal regulation. The Dodd-Frank Act will require the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and other federal agencies to enact numerous new rules, many of which may not be implemented for several months or years. We cannot predict with any certainty the requirements of the regulations ultimately adopted or how the Dodd-Frank Act and such regulations will impact the cost of compliance for a public company. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to the Dodd-Frank Act and the resulting rule proposals and cannot predict or estimate the amount of the additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

These laws, regulations and standards required by the Dodd-Frank Act are subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance mattersfines, criminal penalties and higher costs necessitatedan adverse effect on our business.

We operate in a number of countries throughout the world, including countries known to have a reputation for corruption. We are committed to doing business in accordance with applicable anti-corruption laws. We are subject, however, to the risk that we, our affiliated entities or our or their respective officers, directors, employees and agents may take action determined to be in violation of such anti-corruption laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 and the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010, as well as trade sanctions administered by ongoing revisions to disclosurethe Office of Foreign Assets Control, or OFAC, and governance practices. We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment maythe U.S. Department of Commerce. Any such violation could result in increased generalsubstantial fines, sanctions, civil and/or criminal penalties, curtailment of operations in certain jurisdictions, and administrative expensesmight adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial positions. In addition, actual or alleged violations could damage our reputation and a diversion of management’sability to do business. Furthermore, detecting, investigating, and resolving actual or alleged

violations is expensive and can consume significant time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be harmed. We also expect these new rules and regulations will make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our boardsenior management.

Anti-takeover provisions in our organizational documents and Indiana law could delay or prevent a change in control.

Certain provisions of directors, particularlyour articles of incorporation and by-laws may delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that a shareholder may consider favorable. For example, the articles of incorporation and by-laws, among other things, provide for advance notice for shareholder proposals and nominations and do not permit action by written consent of the shareholders. In addition, the articles of incorporation authorize our Board of Directors to serve on our audit committee, and qualified executive officers.

These provisions may also requires companiesdiscourage acquisition proposals or delay or prevent a change in the mining industry to disclose in their periodic reports filed with the SEC substantial additional information about safety issues relating to their mining operations. The mining industry is already subject to stringent safety and health standards and recent mining accidents in West Virginia and abroad have received international attention and have led to responses at the state and national levels that have resulted in increased scrutiny of mining operations, particularly underground mining operations. This heightened scrutiny could generate negative publicity for the mining industry, increase the cost of compliance with mining regulations or result in the passage of new laws and regulations, any ofcontrol, which could negatively affectharm our stock price.

 Item   ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
ITT Corporation and its subsidiaries from

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings the majority of whichthat are incidental to the operation of theirour businesses. Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to personal injury claims, environmental liabilities,exposures, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, employment and pension matters, government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes, sometimes related to acquisitions or divestitures.divestitures, and employment and pension matters. We will continue to defend vigorously against all claims. See information provided below and Note 19, “Commitments and Contingencies,” in20 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Asbestos Proceedings

ITT, including its subsidiary Goulds Pumps, Inc. (Goulds),Inc, has been joined as a defendant with numerous other companies in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. These claims allege that certain of our products sold prior to 1985 contained a part manufactured by a third party (e.g., a gasket) which contained asbestos. To the extent these third-party parts may have contained asbestos, it was encapsulated in the gasket (or other) material and was non-friable. In certain other cases, it is alleged that former ITT companies were distributors for other manufacturers’ products that may have contained asbestos. Frequently, the plaintiffs are unable to identify any ITT or Goulds Pump product as a source of asbestos exposure. In addition, in a large majority of the claims against the Company, the plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate any injury. Many of those claims have been placed on inactive dockets. Our experience to date is that a substantial portion of resolved claims have been dismissed without payment by the Company.

We record a liability for pending asbestos claims and asbestos claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. While it is probable that we will incur additional costs for future claims to be filed against the Company, a liability for potential future claims beyond the next ten years is not reasonably

estimable due to a number of factors. As of December 31, 2010,2011, we have recorded an undiscounted asbestos-related liability for pending claims and unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years of $1,676,$1,668, including expected legal fees, and an associated asset of $1,034,$954, which represents estimated recoveries from insurers and other responsible parties, resulting in a net asbestos exposure of $642.

$714.

Other ProceedingsMatters

On April 17, 2007, ITT’s BoardDecember 20, 2011, the Ad Hoc Committee of Directors receivedITT Bondholders filed a letterComplaint in New York State court alleging that ITT breached the early redemption provisions of certain bonds issued in 2009. In 2009, ITT issued $500 in bonds maturing in 2019 at an interest rate of 6.125%. The documents governing the bonds contained certain provisions governing early redemptions. On September 20, 2011, ITT notified the holders of the debt that it intended to redeem the bonds on behalfOctober 20, 2011 in accordance with the terms of the governing documents. On October 18, 2011, the redemption price was disclosed. The Plaintiffs contend that ITT used an improper discount rate in calculating the redemption price and otherwise failed to comply with required redemption procedures. If the Plaintiffs’ claims are sustained, ITT could be required to pay up to $15 in additional redemption fees and interest to all holders of the bonds; however, the costs associated with this matter, if any, will be shared with Exelis and Xylem in accordance with the Distribution Agreement as described in Note 4, “Discontinued Operations” to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Management believes that these matters will not have a shareholder requesting that the Board take appropriate action against the employees responsible for the violations atmaterial adverse effect on our Night Vision facility described above. During 2007 and 2008, the Company also received noticeconsolidated financial position, results of four shareholder derivative actions each filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

(2)On October 27, 2006, a three-year $1 billion share repurchase program was approved by our Board of Directors. On December 16, 2008, the provisions of the share repurchase program were modified by our Board of Directors to replace the original three-year term with an indefinite term. As of December 31, 2010,2011, we had repurchased 7.13.55 million shares for $431, including commission fees, under the $1 billion share repurchase program. The program is consistent with our capital allocation process, which has centered on those investments necessary to grow our businesses organically and through acquisitions, while also providing cash returns to shareholders. Our strategy for cash flow utilization is to invest in our business, repay debt, pay dividends, execute strategic acquisitions and repurchase common stock.

This business contributed 2008consolidated revenue growth of approximately 19.0%, as compared to 2007. These businesses provided $2,758 of total assets and $2,154 of total debt on date of acquisition.$147 in 2008.

(b)The decline in operating income from 2010 to 2011 is primarily attributable to $396 of Transformation costs incurred to complete the Distribution of Exelis and Xylem (Transformation costs), including debt extinguishment costs of $297, partially offset by a $285 decline in net asbestos costs. The Transformation costs decreased 2011 operating margins by 1,870 basis points. See Note 3, “Company Transformation,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the Distribution.

(b)    The decline in operating income and operating margin from 2008 to 2009 and 2009 to 2010 is primarily attributable to the recognition of a net asbestos liability related to pending claims and unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next ten10 years. The 2011, 2010 and 2009 asbestos charges, net of estimated recoveries from insurers and other responsible parties, included in operating income were $100, $385 and $238, respectively. The asbestos charges decreased operating margins by 470 basis points, 2,020 basis points and 1,345 basis points in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Prior to 2009, we recorded an asbestos liability and related assets associated with pending claims only. It is probable that we will incur additional liabilities for asbestos claims filed beyond our current10-year horizon and such liabilities may be material. See Note 20, “Commitments and Contingencies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the Distribution.

(c)The increase in cash and cash equivalents from 2010 to 2011 was primarily due to receipt of a net cash transfer (the Contribution) of $729 and $857 from Exelis and Xylem, respectively, in connection with the Distribution, offset in part by the extinguishment of $1,251 of long-term debt in October 2011.

(d)The decline in total assets from 2010 to 2011 is primarily attributable to the Distribution of Exelis and Xylem on October 31, 2011, which had total combined assets of $9,322 as of December 31, 2010. The assets of Exelis and Xylem, although presented as discontinued operations, are included in the total asset amounts for 2007 through 2010.

(e)The decline in total debt from 2010 to 2011 is primarily due to the extinguishment of $1,251 of long-term debt in October 2011. The year-over-year declines in total debt in 2008 and 2009 was due to repayments of outstanding commercial paper balances.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis for a reconciliation of the adjusted non-GAAP measures.

Additional financial highlights for 20102011 include the following:

 nDeployment

On October 31, 2011, ITT completed the Distribution of more than $1.0its Defense and Water businesses and with it created two new publicly traded companies, Exelis and Xylem. ITT is now an industrial company with $2.1 billion of revenue derived from four segments that deliver highly engineered and customized products and services focused on the industrial, aerospace, transportation, and oil & gas markets.

n

We extinguished $1.25 billion of long-term debt and terminated a $61 capital intolease. We ended 2011 with a strong capital structure, including cash and cash equivalents of $690 and total debt of only $6.

n

Segment operating income from continuing operations grew 17.0% during 2011, driven by double digit organic revenue growth at the consolidated level and within three of four segments.

n

ITT secured a number of strategic acquisitions in growth markets, most notablywins during the acquisitionsfourth quarter of Nova and Godwin in our Fluid segment, which provided earnings accretion of $0.08 per share.

Execution of a strategic transformation at our Defense segment that created greater efficiencies and better aligned our technical capabilities with our customers’ needs. Additionally, we completed the divestiture of CAS, our SETA business, which generated proceeds of $237 and an after-tax gain on sale of $130.
Cash flow from operating activities of $1.2 billion, an 18% increase in our annual dividend to shareholders, and a cash position at the end of the year2011 across all businesses, including six significant Industrial Process emerging market wins each in excess of $1.0 billion.$2, our first major Korean medical connector order and positions on two Embraer Aerospace programs.

 nNet charge to operating income of $385 relating to asbestos exposures, reflecting an increase in our estimated liability net of insurance and other third-party recoveries, as a result of deteriorating conditions which affected several key factors used to estimate the net liability.
 

Emerging Markets provided a 19.1% increase to revenue during 2011, reflecting growth in each of our targeted economies, China, India, Brazil and the Middle East.

 nPositions secured on a number of significant U.S. Government programs, including the FAA Systems Engineering 2020 (SE2020) support, the NASA Space Communications Network Services and the Kuwait and Afghanistan Base Operations & Security Support Services.
 

On October 27, 2011, ITT acquired Blakers Pump Engineers (Blakers), a long-time distributor of ITT’s Goulds Pumps brand in Australia. The acquisition will strengthen ITT’s presence and capabilities in Australia and Asia especially in the oil and gas and mining industries.

 nIn January

On October 31, 2011, Denise L. Ramos succeeded Steven R. Loranger as Chief Executive Officer and President of ITT Corporation. Frank T. MacInnis succeeded Mr. Loranger as Chairman of the announcementITT Board of Directors.

n

On October 31, 2011, we completed a one-for-two reverse stock split (1:2 Reverse Stock Split) of ITT’s common stock. Par value of our plancommon stock remained $1 per share following the 1:2 Reverse Stock Split. All common stock shares authorized, issued and outstanding, as well as share prices and earnings per share give effect to transform ITT into three distinct, publicly traded companies by the end of 2011.1:2 Reverse Stock Split in all periods presented.

Further details related to these results are contained in the following ConsolidatedDiscussion of Financial Results and Segment Review sections.section.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

Management reviews key performance indicators including revenue, segment operating income and margins, earnings per share, orders growth, and backlog, among others. In addition, we consider certain measures to be useful to management and investors when evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, andpresented. These measures provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations liquidity and management of assets.assets from period to period. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including, but not limited to, dividends, acquisitions, share repurchases and debt repayment. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, income from continuing operations, income from continuing operations per diluted share or net cash from continuing operations asmeasures determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, to be key performance indicators:

 n

“organic revenue” and “organic orders,”orders” are defined as revenue and orders, respectively, excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and contributions from acquisitions and divestitures.divestitures made during the current year. Divestitures include sales of insignificant portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for classificationpresentation as a discontinued operation. Theperiod-over-period change resulting from foreign currency fluctuations assumes no change in exchange rates from the prior period.

 n

“adjusted segment operating income” defined as operating income, adjusted to exclude costs incurred in connection with the Distribution and restructuring charges and “adjusted operating margin” defined as adjusted operating income divided by total revenue.

n

“adjusted income from continuing operations” and “adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted share” are defined as income from continuing operations and income from continuing operations per diluted share, adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, asbestos-related costs, Transformation costs, restructuring and asset impairment charges, income tax settlements or adjustments, and other unusual or infrequent non-operating items. Special items represent significant charges or credits that impact current results, but may not be related to the Company’s ongoing operations and performance. A reconciliation of adjusted income from continuing operations, including adjusted earnings per diluted share, is provided below.

2011 Outlook
Revenue for the full year 2011 is expected to grow to approximately $11.4 billion with adjusted earnings in the range of approximately $4.62 to $4.82 per diluted share. Organic revenue is expected to grow approximately 2%, with solid growth in the commercial businesses more than offsetting a slight decline in the Defense segment. Full-year revenue for the Defense segment is expected to decline approximately 2%, and operating margin is expected to decline to approximately 12.4%. Fluid segment revenue is expected to grow approximately 12%, and organic revenue growth is projected at approximately 5%. Fluid segment operating margin is expected to grow to approximately 14.0%. Motion & Flow segment revenue growth is expected to be approximately 7%, reflecting organic revenue growth of approximately 5%. Operating margin for Motion & Flow segment is estimated to grow to approximately 15.0%. This guidance excludes future impacts to earnings per share and operating margin that will result from the Company’s recently announced spinoff transaction.
On January 12, 2011, the Company announced a plan to spinoff its water-related and defense-related businesses by the end of 2011. The water-related businesses will include the Water & Wastewater division and the Residential & Commercial Water division, as well as the Flow Control division that is currently reported within the Motion & Flow Control segment. This new water business is estimated to generate pro forma 2011 revenue of approximately $3.6 billion. The new defense-related business, that will include the divisions that currently comprise our Defense segment, is estimated to generate pro forma 2011 revenue of approximately $5.8 billion. The new ITT will include the divisions that comprise our Motion & Flow segment, except for the Flow Control division, and will include

Known Trends and Uncertainties
The following list represents a summary of trends and uncertainties which could have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial positionand/or cash flows:
(f)
The global economic environment remainsCapital expenditures in a relative state of uncertainty. Although financial markets have recovered from their lows in 2009, we consider the overall global economic recovery to be a gradual, long-term process. In the U.S., gradual improvements in credit availability, solid consumer spending, moderate job creation and less uncertainty about new regulations and taxes should work to reinforce the economic recovery. However, downside factors such2011 represents capital expenditures as the challenges facing local, state and federal government finance and possible spillover of Europe’s sovereign debt crisis could limit or delay U.S. growth. Within Europe, the sovereign debt crisis has weakened the recovery process and created the potential for significant volatility during 2011. The potential for unforeseen adverse macroeconomic events remains a concern and the occurrence of such events could have a significant unfavorable effect on our business.
The FY 2011 U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) budget was submitted to Congress by President Obama, but remains under deliberation. Agencies including the Department of Defense are operating under a continuing resolution. There is a chance this continuing resolution could be extended for the full fiscal year by the new Congress. Federal cabinet departments and agencies operating under a full-year continuing resolution, instead of enacted annual FY 2011 appropriations, are precluded from starting new programmatic initiatives or increasing production levels in ongoing procurement programs, unless they receive specific congressional authorization to reprogram funds. The administration’s spending and programmatic priorities, detailedreported in the DoD budget request and aligned with the 2010 Quadrennial Defense Review, include investmentsStatement of an enduring nature and focus on the future challenges of modernization and transformation of forces and capabilities. Examples include intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, network communications, cyber warfare and security, unmanned aircraft and integrated logistics support. Our portfolio of defense solutions, which covers a broad range of air, sea and ground platforms and applications, aligns with the priorities outlined by the DoD. However, uncertainty related to potential changes in appropriations and priorities could materially impact our business.
Programs related specifically to the support of ongoing operations in Iraq and Afghanistan face declining revenue streams going forward. This expectation is reflected in our business plans. The degree to which a reduction in these activities accelerates or not remains an area of uncertainty. There has been particular uncertainty around the U.S. administration’s earlier statements and intentions regarding reducing troop level presence in Afghanistan beginning in mid-2011.
Ongoing Department of Defense acquisition reform and Secretary Gates’ cost savings initiatives, combined with increased industry competitiveness to win long-term positions on key programs, could add pressure to industry profit margins going forward.
A portion of our Fluid segment’s revenue is derived from municipal projects and services. European austerity measures and budget pressures within the U.S. have forced governments to plan for reductions in spending, reevaluate their priorities and postpone wastewater infrastructure projects. These actions have led to a reduction in demand, increased competition and pricing pressures. Our ability or inability to secure project orders in this challenging environment could significantly affect our Fluid segment results.
A portion of the Fluid segment’s revenue is derived from U.S. commercial construction spending and residential real estate activity. Commercial construction build rates are expected to remain low during the majority of 2011 as the build versus buy indicator for real estate investors continues to favor investing in existing buildings due to depressed asset prices. Similarly, consensus expectations for residential homebuilding are mixed, reflecting uncertainty around the likelihood and magnitude of a recovery. The continued uncertainty and volatility within these markets could significantly affect the results of our Fluid segment.
A portion of our business provides pumps for the general industrial, mining, pulp and paper, chemical and petroleum processing industries. Emerging markets have led in the global industrial project recovery, most significantly within the mining industry as high metal prices have promoted robust demand for mining equipment. However, as long as global economic uncertainty remains it will be

26


difficult to predict how the trends in industrial project orders may be impacted.
A portion of our Motion & Flow segment provides original equipment and after-market products to the automotive industry. Governmental automotive stimulus programs introduced during 2009 encouraged moderate recovery and induced increased levels of inventory restocking during 2010. However, as these programs have reached their conclusion, the potential for unfavorable trends within the automotive industry, particularly within Europe where we have a concentration of our business, continues to exist and could negatively impact our future results.
The connectors industry experienced significant declines in both orders and sales during 2009. Recent connectors industry data indicates that the recovering order trend experienced during 2010 has slowed over the past few months, but remains favorable compared to 2009. Due to the significant volatility experienced within this industry, it is difficult to predict how order trends will be impacted during 2011.
While projecting future asbestos costs is subject to numerous variables and uncertainties that are inherently difficult to predict, developments in several key factors since the third quarter of 2009 negatively impacted the assumptions used in our estimates. Further deterioration in these factors could have an unfavorable effect on our estimated asbestos costs and negatively affect our results of operations. In 2011, we expect higher net asbestos charges and greater net cash outflows as a result of the effects of inflation and a decline in the amount of available insurance or other recoveries. In addition, it is probable that we will incur additional liabilities for asbestos claims filed beyond our current10-year horizon and such liabilities may be material. See Note 19 “Commitments and Contingencies,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
The Company currently anticipates significantCash Flows, less capital expenditures associated with the planned spinoff transaction primarily consistingTransformation of employee-related costs, costs to start up certain stand-alone functions and information technology systems and other one-time transaction related costs, including investment banking, consulting fees.$18.
The information provided above does not represent a complete list of trends and uncertainties that could impact our business in either the near or long-term. It should, however, be considered along with the risk factors identified in Item 1A of this Annual Report onForm 10-K and our disclosure under the caption “Forward-Looking Statements” at the end of this section.

The 2010Industrial Process segment generated revenue generated bygrowth of 10.5% reflecting growth in aftermarket (pump parts and service) of approximately 17% and pump units of approximately 8%. This includes growth in our Defense segmentNorth American business of approximately 7% reflecting positive results across all industrial markets. The chemical market in the U.S. and Canada was $5,897, reflecting a decline of $170 or 2.8% from the segment’s 2009 revenue of $6,067. These results were driven by a decline in product revenue of 4.9%, or $186, which was mitigated by consistent results from service revenue programs.

The 2010 product revenue results were impacted by volume declines in surge-related equipment, specifically CREW 2.1 (Counter RCIED Electronic Warfare) electronic jammers and U.S. Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio Systems (SINCGARS) relatedmajor contributor to the urgent and compelling needs in past years. Declines in activity related to these two programs resulted in an approximate $608 decrease in revenue. However, significant strength in the majority of our other programs that support the U.S. Department of Defense and other government agencies, most notably special purpose electronic jammer equipment and composite structuresgrowth as well as an increase in the volume of night vision goggles sold to U.S. allies, partially mitigated the significant decline in the CREW 2.1 and SINCGARS programs. Order activity related to CREW 2.1 and U.S. SINCGARS programs began receding in 2009chemical companies increased output due to reduced U.S. troop deployment and programmatic timing. However, during 2010 we received key awards to develop the next generationlower cost North American natural gas feedstock. Growth in international pump units of battlefield improvised explosive device detection, such as CREW 3.2 and 3.3.
The 2010 service revenue was relatively flat as compared to the prior year. Logistical service, air-traffic management and international security program activities generated growth of approximately 8.4% during 2010. The strength14% reflects increased activity in the logistical service portion of our business were assisted by activity under several key facilities management awards received in the second half of 2009 and during 2010, including Kuwait, AfghanistanSouth America and the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program (LOGCAP), among others. However, growth from these programs wasMiddle East, primarily within the oil & gas market, partially offset by a decline in our involvement in the Data & Analysis Center for Software (DACS) program.
As noted in the “Executive Summary” section, during 2010 we secured positions on a number of significant U.S. Government service-related programs, including the FAA Systems Engineering 2020 (SE2020) support, the NASA Space Communications Network Services (SCNS) and the Kuwait and Afghanistan Base Operations & Security Support Services. These contracts have an estimated total potential value approximately $4.9 billion with all options exercised. See below for further information:
SE2020 – this contract has been awarded by the FAA to lead a team of aviation industry companies to support the development of advanced concepts involving the most challenging issues facing the FAA’s Next Generation Air Transportation System initiative to modernize the U.S. national airspace system. This contract has a ceiling value with all options exercised of $1.4 billion, with a five-year base period and five one-year options.
Kuwait Facilities Operations – this contract has been awarded by the U.S. Army Rock Island Contracting Center to provide comprehensive support services for all U.S. Army facilities in Kuwait. This contract has an estimated potential worth with all options exercised of $1.4 billion, with a one-year base period and four one-year options.
SCNS – this contract was originally awarded to ITT in October 2008 to support NASA space and near-Earth networks that provide most of the communications and tracking services for a wide range of Earth-orbiting spacecraft, but commencement of the contract work was delayed due to a number of protests filed by the incumbent contractor. These protests were cleared during the fourth quarter of 2010. The contract has a base performance period of five years and three months, with twoone-year option periods, and a maximum estimated potential value with all options exercised of $1.26 billion.
Afghanistan National Security Forces Facilities Support – this award actual pertains to two individual contracts from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Middle East District to provide facilities operations, maintenance and training services for the Afghanistan National Security Forces in Northern Afghanistan and Southern Afghanistan. Each award is for a one-year base period with options for four additional years. The contract has

an estimated potential value of $450 million for Northern Afghanistan and $350 million for Southern Afghanistan, with all options exercised.
Fluid Technology
The 2010 Fluid segment revenue of $3,670 grew 9.1%, including a $271 benefit from recent acquisitions, primarily Godwin Pumps and Nova Analytics. These acquisitions expanded our product offerings in the on-demand dewatering pump rental and analytical instrumentation markets. The revenue generated by these two businesses during 2010 exceeded our initial expectations. In 2011 we expect continued growth from these businesses due to increased leverage from our deep customer base and distribution channels.

Organic revenue growth of 1.5% derived from our Water & Wastewater division reflects mixed regional results. Organic revenue derived within the U.S. and Canada increased approximately 9% compared to 2009, driven primarily by increased volume of transport equipment. Organic revenue within the Asia Pacific region increased approximately 19% due to positive results from transport and dewatering equipment. Growth in these regions was partially offset by the continued challenging economic and competitive pricing conditions within Europe that impacted the majority of our products lines, resulting in an approximate 6% revenue decline.
The organic revenue growth of 4.0% generated by our Residential & Commercial Water division was driven by growth in residential building services equipment and light industrial equipment. We attribute these positive results to the slow but continuing restocking of inventory and gradual recovery within the residential and commercial markets. Our significant installed base of equipment also provided demand stability.
Organic revenue from oura large 2010 project in Africa. The Industrial Process division declined 5.4% during 2010 reflecting declines in large industrial projects, partially offset byrevenue results include 21% growth from after-market pumps and parts volume due to improved customer facility utilization. The decline in large industrial project revenue was consistent with the significant reduction in long-lead industrial project orders experienced during 2009. Delayed starts for received oil and gas orders also contributed to the overall decline. Orders have improved 11.8% or $76 from 2009, resulting primarily from after-market pumps and parts volume, as well as demand in emerging markets relatedand also reflect the benefits from product development investments in more complex and specialized equipment.

Organic revenue growth of $80, driven by increased volume, was more than offset by230 basis point decline, during 2011 due to an unfavorable change in Defense segment product sales mix, and pricing that contributed to an overall decline inpartially offset by favorable product pricing.

Control Technologies gross profit of approximately $131. However, the overall impact from price reductions was mitigatedincreased $24 or 25.3% during 2011 due to increased sales volume, improved pricing, favorable mix, and operational performance improvements related to recent footprint consolidations and leadership changes. These favorable items were partially offset by significant net savings, which more than offset risingincreased labor, material and labor costs, generated by productivity and other cost-reduction initiatives. See further discussion on the 2010 net savings generated by our business segment within the “Operating Income” discussion below. The following table illustrates the 2010 and 2009 gross profit results of our business segments, includingoverhead costs. These items drove an increase to gross margin results.

Asbestos-Related Costs, Net
During 2010, we recognized net asbestos related costs of $385, reflecting an increase of $1478.2% over the prior year primarily reflectingdue to slightly higher spending on new product developments in targeted growth markets at each segment. As a percentage of revenue, R&D costs declined to 3.1% in 2011 from 3.2% in 2010. We anticipate our investments in future R&D activities will moderately increase from current spending levels to ensure a continuing flow of innovative, high quality products and maintain our competitive position in the impactmarkets we serve.

Asbestos-Related Costs, Net

ITT, including its subsidiary Goulds Pumps, Inc., has been joined as a defendant with numerous other companies in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. As of our annual updateDecember 31, 2011 and 2010, there were 105,486 and 103,575 open claims pending against ITT filed in various state and federal courts alleging injury as a result of exposure to the underlying assumptions used in our liability and asset estimates. As part of the annual update, the underlying assumptions used to estimate asbestos liabilities and potential recoveries are estimated based on our experience since our last detailed review, the appropriate reference period of years of experience used in determining each assumption is reassessed, and our expectations regarding future conditions are evaluated.

Based on the results of this annual update in 2010, we increased our estimatedasbestos. We record an undiscounted asbestos liability, including legal fees, by $691, reflectingfor costs that the Company is estimated to incur to resolve all pending claims, as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. We also record a corresponding asbestos-related asset that represents our best estimate of probable recoveries from insurers and other responsible parties for the estimated asbestos liabilities.

The Company records a net asbestos charge each quarter to maintain a rolling 10 year forecast period (referred to as the Provision). In addition, in the third quarter of each year, we conduct an annual study to review and update the underlying assumptions used in our asbestos liability and related asset estimates (referred to as Remeasurement). During the annual study, the underlying assumptions are updated based on our actual experience since our last annual study, a reassessment of the appropriate reference period of years of experience used in determining each assumption and our expectations regarding future conditions, including inflation. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the income statement effects to continuing operations from asbestos charges consisted of the following:

Charges included in the table above reflect undiscounted costs that the Company is estimated to incur to resolve all pending claims, as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years, including legal fees. The decrease in our Remeasurement expense from 2010 to 2011 reflects the impact of our annual update to the underlying assumptions used to measure our asbestos liabilities and related assets and was a result of several developments including a reduction in the assumed rate of increase in future average settlement costs and an expectation of lower defense costs relative to

indemnities paid. These favorable factors were offset in part by increased activity in several higher-cost jurisdictions, increasing the number of cases expected to be adjudicated. The 2010 Remeasurement reflects an assumed increase in settlement costs and significantly increased activity in several higher-cost jurisdictions, increasing the number of cases to be adjudicated and the expected legal costs to defend the additional cases.

See Note 20, “Commitments & Contingencies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on our asbestos-related liability and assets.

Transformation Costs

During 2011, we recognized expenses of $639 in connection with the Transformation. We have presented $396 of the Transformation costs within income from continuing operations and $240 within income from discontinued operations. The components of Transformation costs incurred during 2011 and included within income from continuing operations are presented below.

(a)The $297 loss on extinguishment of debt represents the costs to extinguish substantially all outstanding debt prior to the Distribution. The activities associated with the extinguishment of debt are described in Note 16. “Debt,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

(b)Includes $55 non-cash impairment charge related to a decision to discontinue development of an information technology consolidation initiative.

(c)Includes $17 of compensation costs recognized in connection with the retirement of Steven R. Loranger, our Former Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer in October 2011.

The Company expects to incur additional cash and non-cash Transformation costs during 2012 of approximately $15 to $20, net of tax, primarily consisting of additional advisory fees. The Company anticipates net after-tax cash outflows during 2012 of approximately $30 to $40, primarily related to advisory fees and employee-related costs.

Industrial Process operating income increased $12 or 15.2% during 2011 due to increased sales volume and net cost reductions from productivity, sourcing and Value Based Lean Six Sigma initiatives. The favorability of these items was partially offset by competitive project pricing levels, increased bad debt expense of $5 and Transformation costs of $3. These items resulted in a net increase to operating margin of 50 basis points over the prior year.

Motion Technologies operating income was flat at $85 for 2011. Although Motion Technologies generated revenue growth of 15.7% during 2011, this growth was volume driven from the lower margin OEM equipment associated with key wins on numerous automotive platforms in the last two years. This dynamic contributed to an overall 210 basis point decline in operating margin, as did rising material costs and increased year-over-year severance costs. The overall impact of these items was offset partially by strategic sourcing initiatives.

Interconnect Solutions operating income increased $1 or 2.7% during 2011, as an unfavorable change in product sales mix and a $3 restructuring charge were offset by declines in warranty and compensation costs and a $4 gain from the sale of a product line.

Control Technologies operating income increased $26 or 89.7% during 2011 due to increased sales volume, improved pricing and favorable mix combined with operational improvements resulting from recent footprint actions. These results also include a favorable comparison to various 2010 inventory adjustments totaling $5. These favorable items were partially offset by increased labor, material and overhead costs. These items drove an increase to operating margin of 680 basis points over the prior year to 17.3%.

Corporate costs, excluding net asbestos-related costs and Transformation costs, decreased $9 during 2011, primarily due to a $10 gain from the cancellation of a bond guarantee, partially offset by a $3 unfavorable movement in the value of corporate owned life insurance policies.

that our future interest expense will be significantly lower than our historical interest costs due to the extinguishment of $1.25 billion of debt in October 2011. In the future, we expect our interest expenses will be aligned with borrowing levels commensurate with the size of the Company following the distribution of Exelis and Xylem. See Note 16, “Debt” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the debt extinguishment.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE (BENEFIT)

During the year ended December 31, 2011, we recognized income tax expense of $260 on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $318, an effective rate of (81.8)%, as compared to an income tax benefit of $144 on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $276, an effective rate of 52.2%, in the prior year.

The effective tax rate recorded in 2011 differs from US federal statutory rate of 35% due to several items. First, in 2011, we recorded a valuation allowance of $340 for US federal and state deferred tax assets as it became more likely than not that these deferred tax assets would not be realized as a result of the Distribution. The valuation allowance decreased the effective tax rate benefit by 106.7%. As of December 31, 2011, the Company was in a cumulative three-year loss position, which was considered a significant source of negative evidence indicating the need for a valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets. Since the Company was in a three-year cumulative loss position at the end of 2011, management determined that the size and frequency of the losses from continuing operations in recent years and the uncertainty associated with projecting future taxable income supported the

conclusion that a valuation allowance was required to reduce its deferred tax assets.

Second, the Company recorded a $31 tax benefit in 2011 from an increase in state deferred tax assets which resulted in a 9.7% increase in the effective tax rate benefit. As a consequence of the Distribution, certain state deferred tax assets were re-valued based on enacted tax rates using different state apportionment factors, increasing the future state tax benefit. Third, in 2011 the Company also recorded $69 of tax expense for a portion of undistributed foreign earnings that were previously considered to be indefinitely re-invested which decreased the effective tax rate benefit by 21.8%. As a result of the Distribution and its impacts on the Company’s expected liquidity, investment opportunities and other factors, the Company determined that certain earnings generated in Luxemburg, Japan, and South Korea may be distributed in the future. As a result of the change in intent, the Company recorded an additional tax expense on these unremitted earnings. Such undistributed foreign earnings have not been remitted to the U.S. and the timing of such remittance if any is currently under evaluation. The Company recorded a tax benefit of $23 for various tax credits, resulting in a tax rate benefit of 7.2%.

The effective tax rate in 2010 differs from the US federal statutory tax rate due to the release of a $36 valuation allowance on a capital loss carry-forward that increased the 2010 effective tax rate by 12.9%, related to the sale of CAS and $35 of tax credits which increased the effective tax rate by 12.6%. These items were offset in part by the writeoff of a deferred tax asset as a result of the Parent Protection Act of 2010.

INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, NET OF TAX

On October 31, 2011, the Company completed the Distribution of Exelis and Xylem. As a result, the operating results of Exelis and Xylem through the date of the Distribution have been classified in the consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

REVENUE

Our 2010 revenue growth reflected recoveries in three of our businesses from the economic lows experienced during 2009. Overall revenue increased 7.8% reflecting growth in both emerging and developed markets as strength in our short cycle

businesses was partially offset by a slower recovery in our late-cycle Industrial Process segment. In addition to the economic impact our business felt over the 2009-2010 period, our ICS segment gained market share with new products and platforms and our Motion Technologies segment continued to gain market share with key wins on various OEM platforms. The Control Technologies segment primarily benefited from a strengthening in the aerospace market. The following table illustrates the 2010 and 2009 revenue of our segments.

Industrial Process

The 2010 revenue generated by our Industrial Process segment was $694, reflecting a decline of $25 or 3.5% from the segment’s 2009 revenue of $719. Growth from aftermarket (pump parts and service) of 3.5% partially offset lower revenue from pump units. The Industrial Process segment experienced a sharp decline in pump unit order activity during 2009, as economic conditions caused our customers to delay or cancel a significant number of planned projects. The decline in 2009 project orders led to lower revenues in 2010.

Motion Technologies

The Motion Technologies segment generated revenue growth of 11.6% during 2010, despite negative impacts from unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations of 5.1%. The growth reflected benefits from European automotive stimulus programs in place during the latter part of 2009 that bolstered demand and led to distributor inventory restocking in the early portions of 2010. In addition, key platform wins obtained during the past 18 months within Europe, North America and China increased our share in the OEM braking equipment market.

Interconnect Solutions

The ICS segment generated revenue growth of 21.1% during 2010, primarily driven by the overall strengthening and recovery within the majority of markets served. In addition, our results also included benefits from key 2010 platform wins on Smartphone devices that increased our share within the communications market. The release of our DL connector used in medical imaging equipment drove revenue growth of approximately 37% within the medical market. These results also reflect expansion within emerging markets on oil and gas related projects.

Control Technologies

The Control Technologies segment generated revenue growth of 13.2% during 2010, primarily reflecting an overall strengthening of the general industrial, aerospace and defense markets served by this division as compared to prior year. In addition, our revenue results further benefited by the increasing production of high-speed rail seating equipment in China.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit for 2010 was $607, representing a $44 increase, or 7.8% from 2009. Increased volume and significant net savings generated by productivity and other cost-reduction initiatives, more than offset rising material and labor costs. See further discussion on the 2010 net savings generated by our segments within the “Operating Income” discussion below.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses increased 15.6% or $107 during 2010 to $791, primarily attributable to a $147 increase in net asbestos-related costs resulting from unfavorable trends in certain key assumptions used in measuring our potential asbestos exposure to pending claims and those estimated to be filed over the next 10 years.

The increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily due to additional variable selling costs corresponding to the rise in revenues. Additional factors contributing to the increased costs include added headcount in emerging market locations and higher employee related costs within the ICS segment primarily due to increased commissions and severance costs.

The decrease in G&A expenses was primarily due to lower costs for corporate compensation and benefit related matters. G&A expenses were relatively flat within our operating segments, as a $15 decline at Industrial Process was offset by a $12 increase at ICS. The decline at Industrial Process was primarily due to lower bad debt expense while the increase at

ICS was primarily due to increased compensation costs and bad debt expense.

38


The increased R&D expense is primarily due to additional development projects within the ICS segment, such as our Universal Connector and Elec tric Vehicle Connector.

During 2010, we recognized net restructuring charges of $3, representing a $40 decrease as compared to the prior year. This decrease in expense was mainly attributable to a fewer

number of actions that were initiated during 2010 versus 2009. Restructuring charges incurred during 2009 related to the relocation of certain Motion Technologies and ICS production facilities to lower cost regions. See Note 6, “Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Charges included in the table above reflect undiscounted costs that the Company is estimated to incur to resolve all pending claims, as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years, including legal fees.

In the third quarter of 2009, we recorded a charge for claims estimated to be filed against the Company over the next 10 years for the first time. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2009, we began recording a quarterly Provision to maintain a rolling 10 year projection period. The increase in the net Provision expense from 2009 to 2010 is a result of the Provision in 2009 including only the fourth quarter of 2009, while the Provision in 2010 includes a quarterly expense for all four quarters in 2010. The increase in our estimated liability isnet Remeasurement expense from 2009 to 2010 was a result of several developments, including higher settlement costs and significantly increased activity in several higher-cost jurisdictions, increasing the number of cases to be adjudicated and the expected legal costs. Our 2010 detailed review of the asbestos-related assets, including estimated recoveries from insurers and other responsible parties, resulted in a $372 increase in the recorded asset.

The net asbestos expense is primarily recorded within Corporate and Other; however, a portion of the expense is associated with businesses that were disposed of a number of years ago, and is reported within discontinued operations in our Consolidated Financial Statements.

See Note 19,20, “Commitments & Contingencies,” in our Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on our asbestos-related liability and assets.

RestructuringOPERATING LOSS

Our 2010 and Asset Impairment Charges, Net

During 2010, we recognized net restructuring charges2009 results include operating losses of $52, representing a $27 or 34.2% decrease as compared$184 and $121, respectively, due to the prior year. This decreaseasbestos-related costs of $385 and $238 discussed above and in expense was mainly attributable to a fewer number of actions that were initiated during 2010 versus 2009.
Our largest 2010 restructuring initiative related to a Defense segment realignment action that commenced during the first quarter, with the objective of enabling better product portfolio integration, encouraging a more coordinated market approachNote 20, “Commitments and reducing operational redundancies. This action resulted in the recognition of $28 of restructuring expense and the closure of three facilities. As of December 31, 2010, we consider this action to be substantially complete, except for remaining cash payments of $9 to settle remaining severance liabilities. We estimate our Defense realignment actions will yield approximately $61 in annual net savings, including estimated 2011 savings of $27 incremental to 2010.
In addition to the Defense realignment action, we incurred $24 related to other various restructuring initiatives that were not individually material. We consider the majority of these initiatives to be substantially complete as of December 31, 2010, except for remaining cash payments of $13. We estimate aggregate annual net savings of approximately $37 from our other 2010 actions, including estimated 2011 savings of $33 incremental to 2010.
See Note 5, “Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges,” in the NotesContingencies”, to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
OPERATING INCOME
We generatedStatements. Asbestos-related costs reduced operating income of $900margins by 2,020 basis points and 1,340 basis points in 2010 and 2009, respectively. Operating margin during 2010 was favorably impacted by lower restructuring and asset impairment costs of $40 which provided a 0.7% increase230 basis point improvement and net

cost reductions of $42 which provided a 240 basis point improvement. Net cost reductions were the result of global sourcing initiatives, Value-Based Six Sigma and prior restructuring actions, which more than offset the impact from the prior year, primarily reflecting growth from our Fluidrising material, labor and Motion & Flow segment operations, offset by an unfavorable increase in net asbestos-relatedoverhead costs. Operating margin decreased to 8.2% for 2010, ayear-over-year decline of 20 basis points. The increase in net asbestos-related costs provided an unfavorable impact of 130 basis points to the 2010 operating margin. The following table illustrates the 2010 and 2009 operating income (loss) results of our business segments, including operating margin results.

Industrial Process’ operating income increased $7 or 9.7% during 2010, resulting in an operating margin of 11.4%, an improvement of 140 basis points versus 2009. The year-over-year growth was primarily attributable to lower bad debt and additional restructuring expenses of approximately $28 led to the decline in operating income.costs, as well as benefits from sourcing and productivity initiatives.

Motion Technologies’ operating income increased $37 or 77.1% during 2010, resulting in an operating margin of approximately $2415.5%, an improvement of 570 basis points versus 2009. The year-over-year growth was primarily attributable to lower restructuring costs, increased sales volumes and benefits from productivity initiatives. Global sourcing actions mitigated rising material costs.

Interconnect Solutions’ operating income increased $18 or 94.7% during 2010, resulting in an operating margin of 9.0%, an improvement of 340 basis points versus 2009. The year-over-year growth was primarily attributable to increased sales volumes and lower R&D expenses of approximately $24 as a result of Defense realignment activities. Additionally, lower amortization of approximately $22 also mitigated the negative impacts above. The year on year increase in margin of 30 bps was attributed to the

Corporate and Other
We incurred corporate and other expenses of $510 during 2010, reflecting an increase of $132 compared to 2009. The increase in expense primarily relates to the recognition of additional asbestos-related costs as mentioned above in the “Operating Expenses” discussion.
Impacts to Operating Income from Postretirement Expense
Postretirement costs (pension and other employee-related defined benefit plans) affect results in all segments. We recorded $126 of net periodic postretirement cost during 2010, compared with costs of $99 in 2009. As more fully described in Note 16, “Postretirement Benefit Plans,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, the primary drivers behind the increase in the net periodic postretirement cost were the higher service costs due to the addition of approximately 3,000 employees following the EDO acquisition into the U.S. Salaried Retirement Plan (SRP), and increased amortization of net actuarial losses that resulted from the 2008 financial market decline, partially offset by an increase in expected returns on a higher base of plan assets.
In 2011, we expect to incur approximately $184 of net periodic postretirement cost, representing an increase of $58, or 46.0% as compared to 2010. This increase is primarily attributable to additional amortization of net actuarial losses.
U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards govern the extent to which postretirement costs and plan contributions are allocable to and recoverable under contracts with the U.S. Government. As a result, we have sought and expect to continue to seek reimbursement from the DoD for a portion of our postretirement costs and plan contributions.

Interest expense for 2010 was relatively flat as compared to 2009, as a reduction in interest expense derived from commercial paper of $20 was offset by an increase in interest expense from long-term debt.debt related to the issuance of $1 billion of debt in May 2009. Our daily average outstanding commercial paper balance decreased from $704 in 2009 to $231 in 2010. The decline in 2010 interest income was primarily due to the recognition of ana $13 interest refund received in conjunction with an IRSU.S federal tax settlement during 2009. The fluctuation in net miscellaneous expense is due to the sale of certainavailable-for-sale investments during 2010 that resulted in a pre-tax gain of $7.

INCOME TAX EXPENSEBENEFIT
Income

During the year ended December 31, 2010, we recognized an income tax expense was $164 or 20.0%benefit of income$144 on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes for 2010,of $276, an effective rate of 52.2%, as compared to $169 or 20.9% duringan income tax benefit of $97 on a loss from continuing operations before income taxes of $208, an effective rate of 46.6%, in the prior year.

Theyear-over-year decrease in the incomeeffective tax expenserate was primarilypartially attributable to an additionalincome tax benefit of $41 related to an increase in asbestos-related costs coupled with an additional tax benefit of $262010 from the reversalrelease of a valuation allowances on certainallowance. The sale of CAS in 2010 enabled us to utilize a previously reserved capital loss carryforwards as it became more likely than not that thesecarryforward, which benefited the 2010 effective tax rate by $36, or 12.9%. The effective tax rate was also impacted by $35 of tax credits. These 2010 benefits to the effective tax rate were partially offset by the enactment of the Patient Protection Act of 2010 which resulted in the write-off of a deferred tax assets would be realized.asset of $12, and increased the effective tax rate by 4.2%. These 2010 income tax benefits largely replaced the prior year benefit of $58$14 from an international legal entity restructuring.

INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, NET OF TAX

Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $144$936 for 2010, as compared to $3$740 for 2009. These results primarily reflect the operations of Exelis and Xylem, which were discontinued in connection with the Distribution. The increase of $141 primarily reflectsresults also reflect the recognition of an after-tax gain on sale of $130$129 related to our divesture of CAS, Inc. (CAS), a component of our former Defense segment, which was sold on September 8, 2010. CAS generated after-tax income from operations of $9 for both the 2009 twelve-month period and 2010 period prior to its sale. Also included within income from discontinued operations is an after-tax net asbestos-related benefit of $6 in 2010 as compared to expense of $6 during 2009, related to a business we disposed of a number of years ago.

REVENUE
The deteriorating global economic conditions experienced during 2009 created recessionary challenges within our Fluid and Motion & Flow segments. As a result, we experienced a significant decline in order activity that translated into a 14.9% decrease in revenue from these segments. However, the full extent of the unfavorable conditions experienced during 2009 was mitigated by the results of our defense businesses that are less prone to volatility in periods of economic uncertainty. The following table illustrates the 2009 and 2008 revenue results of our business segments. See below for further discussion ofyear-over-year revenue and order activity at the segment level.

Defense & Information Solutions
The 2009 revenue generated by our Defense segment was $6,067, consistent with the segment’s 2008 revenue of $6,064. These results reflectyear-over-year growth in service revenue programs of $140 or 6.5% and a decline in product revenue of $137 or 3.5%.
The 2009 service revenue benefited from logistical service contract wins at Fort Benning and Maxwell Air Force Base, as well as increased activity under the Global Maintenance and Supply Services (GMASS) agreement with the U.S. Army. In addition, service revenue during 2009 benefited from an increase in engineering services related to the Tethered Aerostat Radar System (TARS) program and the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) next generation air-traffic control program. These positive service revenue contributions were partially offset by a decline in Logistics Civil Augmentation Program (LOGCAP) revenues.
The 2009 product revenue results were impacted by volume declines in our C4 (command, control, communications and computers) business, U.S. SINCGARS and CREW 2.1. In addition, our 2009 program revenue was adversely affected by timing of deliveries for our electronic ground warfare systems.

33


The decline in revenue from these programs was partially offset by revenue growth from increased volume of night vision goggles to international countries, Airborne Integrated Electronic warfare systems and radar systems, as well as the GPS Navigation project and other classified programs.
Fluid Technology
The 2009 revenue generated by our Fluid segment was $3,363, representing a decline of $478 or 12.4% from the segment’s 2008 revenue of $3,841. These results include a favorable impact from acquisitions of $24 and an unfavorable impact from foreign currency fluctuations of $153, resulting in an organic revenue decline of $349 or 9.1%. The decline in organic revenue was primarily the result of lower volumes and significant overall weakness in most markets served due to challenging global economic conditions. Organic revenue within the Residential & Commercial Water division decreased $170, the Water & Wastewater division decreased $90, and the Industrial Process division decreased $85. However, the overall impact from unfavorable conditions was partially mitigated by stable results from product sales to municipal markets, as well as from long-term construction type contracts within the oil & gas and power generating markets.
Motion & Flow Control
The 2009 revenue generated by our Motion & Flow segment was $1,253, representing a decline of $330 or 20.8% from the segment’s 2008 revenue of $1,583. These results include unfavorable impacts from divestitures of $36 and foreign currency fluctuations of $66, resulting in an organic revenue decline of $228 or 14.4%. The decline in organic revenue was primarily the result of lower volumes caused by challenging global economic conditions affecting the majority of markets served. The declines were mitigated during the latter half of 2009, through market share gains in the beverage and marine markets, benefits from European automotive stimulus programs, and solid results in rail-related products within emerging markets.
Organic revenue at our Motion Technologies division decreased $36 or 6.3%, reflecting weakness in the automotive and rail markets during the majority of 2009. These declines were partially offset, however, by strength in both markets during the latter half of 2009 resulting from benefits from European government stimulus programs and growth in emerging markets primarily related to efforts on China’s high-speed rail project.
Organic revenue at our Interconnect Solutions division declined $102 or 22.5%. These results are in-line with the overall connectors industry which experienced significant reductions in revenue and orders during 2009. This division serves the aerospace and industrial markets which were severely impacted by the economic downturn.
Organic revenue at our Flow Control division decreased $30 or 12.0%, primarily attributable to declines within the global industrial market, partially offset by market share gains in the beverage industry and a relatively flat marine market which saw declines in original equipment sales being offset by an increase in after-market sales.
Organic revenue at our Control Technologies division declined $56 or 17.5%. These results reflect a reduction in commercial aerospace original equipment production and sluggish after-market sales performance, as well as the impact of decreased industrial production activity, partially offset by strong performance in the defense market.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit for 2009 was $3,024, representing a $190 or 5.9% decrease from 2008. This decrease was attributable to the decline in revenue and unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations, partially offset by benefits from productivity gains, including efforts to improve supply chain productivity and control material costs. Gross margin increased 30 basis points to 28.3% during 2009. The 30 basis point improvement is primarily due to benefits from productivity improvements and various other cost-saving initiatives, which more than offset the impacts from reductions in sales volumes.

OPERATING EXPENSES
Operating expenses increased 5.7% during 2009 to $2,130, primarily attributable to a $224 increase in net asbestos-related costs resulting from our initial recognition of an estimated liability, net of expected recoveries from insurance and other responsible parties, for claims projected to be filed against the Company over the next 10 years. The increase in net asbestos-related costs was partially offset by a reduction in SG&A expenses of $134.

(a) Not meaningful
Selling, General & Administrative Expenses (SG&A)
SG&A decreased 7.9% to $1,555 in 2009. Theyear-over-year decrease was primarily attributable to cost-saving initiatives in response to declining global economic conditions, lower sales volumes, favorable foreign currency exchange translation and lower stock compensation expense, partially offset by higher postretirement plan costs.
Research and Development Expenses (R&D)
R&D expenses increased $22 during 2009 over the prior year, primarily due to increased spending for development materials on key growth platforms across our Defense segment.
Asbestos-Related Costs, Net
During 2009, we recorded asbestos-related costs of $238, related to the estimated liability, net of expected recoveries from insurers and other responsible parties, for claims projected to be filed against the Company over the next 10 years. See Note 19, “Commitments & Contingencies,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges, Net
During 2009, we recognized net restructuring charges of $79, representing a $2 increase as compared to 2008. The charges associated with 2009 actions primarily represent severance costs for reductions in headcount associated with the strategic relocation of certain production operations within our Fluid and Motion & Flow segments to lower-cost regions, as well as other various planned reductions in headcount associated with our lean fulfillment initiative. Planned position eliminations totaled 1,092 employees, including 528 factory workers, 530 office workers and 34 management employees.
OPERATING INCOME
We generated operating income of $894 during 2009, a 25.4% decrease from 2008, primarily reflecting volume declines and increased asbestos-related costs. These negative impacts were partially offset by benefits from the implementation of extensive cost-saving initiatives and productivity improvements, such as structural changes made to optimize our sourcing and reduce cycle times. In addition, we completed a strategic realignment of our Motion & Flow segment to better leverage our production capabilities and cost structures as well as reduce operational redundancies. Operating margin decreased to 8.4% for 2009, ayear-over-year decline of 200 basis points, primarily attributable to reductions in sales volumes and the impact of asbestos-related costs. These negative impacts were partially offset by benefits from productivity improvements and various cost-saving initiatives.

Defense & Information Solutions
Operating income increased $46 or 6.4% during 2009, resulting in an operating margin of 12.5%, an improvement of 70 basis points versus 2008. Theyear-over-year growth, reflecting reduced costs of revenue and SG&A expenses, was primarily attributable to benefits from cost-saving initiatives, such as productivity and sourcing strategies. These benefits were partially offset by increases in costs of materials, labor and other overhead, other unfavorable program mix impacts, higher postretirement benefit plan costs and increased investments in R&D.
Fluid Technology
Operating income for 2009 decreased $76 or 16.2% from 2008, with a decline in operating margin of 50 basis points to 11.7%. These declines were primarily attributable to reductions in sales volumes and higher postretirement benefit plan expenses,

partially offset by strong productivity, which provided increasing benefits as the year progressed, and lower realignment costs.
Motion & Flow Control
Operating income decreased $74 or 38.5% during 2009, including impacts from unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations of $25. The decline was primarily affected by lower sales volume, as well as higher postretirement plan costs, partially offset by benefits from net cost reductions driven by various cost-saving initiatives and lower realignment costs. In the second half of 2009, we began realizing benefits associated with the significant restructuring and realignment actions taken during 2008 and 2009. As a result, this contributed toyear-over-year improvements in operating income of $17 in the fourth quarter. Operating margin decreased 270 basis points to 9.4% during 2009, primarily reflecting the factors described above.
Corporate and Other
We incurred corporate and other expenses of $378 during 2009, reflecting an increase of $200 or 112.4% as compared to 2008. The increase in expense primarily relates to the recognition of additional asbestos-related costs as mentioned above in the “Operating Expenses” discussion, partially offset by lower environmental-related and bonus costs, as well as investment gains on corporate-owned life insurance policies.
Impacts to Operating Income from Postretirement Expense
We recorded $99 of net periodic postretirement cost during 2009, compared with costs of $29 in 2008. The primary drivers behind the increase were the effect of an increase in the amortization of net actuarial losses, and expected returns on a lower base of plan assets, partially offset by an increase in the discount rate for our foreign plans.

Miscellaneous expense, net   9    13    (30.8)%
                
Total Interest and non-operating expenses, net  $84   $122    (31.1)%
                
Interest expense decreased 29.3% during 2009, due to interest rate declines on our commercial paper and variable rate debt, as well as loweryear-over-year levels of outstanding commercial paper and a decrease in interest related to taxes, partially offset by an increase in interest expense on fixed-rate debt related to the $1.0 billion debt issuance in May 2009. The2009 year-over-year decrease in interest income of 22.6% was primarily due to lower average interest rates during the 2009 periods as compared to the prior year, partially offset by the recognition of interest refunds of $13 received in conjunction with an IRS tax settlement.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE
Income tax expense was $169 or 20.9% of income from continuing operations before income taxes for 2009, compared to $308 or 28.6% during 2008. Theyear-over-year decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the completion of a one-time restructuring of certain international legal entities which resulted in a reduction of the income tax provision in the amount of $58. In addition, reversals of valuation allowances of $17, coupled with other tax credits and allowable deductions of $12, largely offset the prior year benefit from a tax account validation adjustment of $37. See Note 6, “Income Taxes,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS, NET OF TAX
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, was $3 for 2009, respectively, as compared to $27 for 2008. During the 2008, we completed the sale of the remaining component of the Switches businesses that generated total after-tax income of $6, including an after-tax gain on sale of $5. During 2010 we classified CAS, a component of our Defense segment, as a discontinued operation. CAS generated after-tax income from operations of $9 during 2009, as compared to $7 during 2008. Also included within income from discontinued operations during 2009 was additional after-tax net asbestos-related expense of $6, related to a business we disposed of a number of years ago.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Funding and Liquidity Strategy

Our funding needs are monitored and strategies are executed to meet overall liquidity requirements, including the management of our capital structure on both a short- and long-term basis. We believe thatHistorically, we have generated operating cash flow sufficient to fund our working capital, dividends, capital expenditures and financing requirements. Subsequent to the Distribution, while our ability to forecast future cash flows is more limited, we expect to fund our ongoing working capital, dividends, capital expenditures and financing requirements through cash flows from operations and our access tocash on hand, accessing the commercial paper market are sufficient to meetand utilizing our short-term funding requirements.borrowing capacity under the 2011 Revolving Credit Agreement, described below. If our access to the commercial paper market were adversely affected, we believe that alternative sources of liquidity, including our existing committed credit facility and access to the public debt market,2011 Revolving Credit Agreement would be sufficient to meet our short-term funding requirements.

Our

In connection with the Distribution, ITT received a net cash transfer (the Contribution) of $729 and $857 from Exelis and Xylem, respectively. The proceeds from the Contribution were utilized during October 2011 to repay substantially all outstanding ITT long-term debt and commercial paper, with the remainder to be used for general corporate purposes, including Transformation costs.

Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2011 were 235.0% higher than the December 31, 2010 balance, and represented 18.8% of total assets. The increase in cash and cash equivalents is predominately held bydue largely to the Contribution. Cash and cash equivalents denominated in the Euro accounted for 67% of our foreign subsidiaries in currencies where we have operations. cash and cash equivalents at of December 31, 2011.

We manage our worldwide cash requirements considering available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. We continue to look for opportunities to access cash balances in excess of local operating requirements to meet global liquidity needs in a cost-efficient manner. We have

and may continue to transfer cash from certain international subsidiaries to the U.S.United States. and other international subsidiaries when it is cost effective to do so. If these funds are needed for our operations in the U.S., we would be required to accrue and pay U.S. taxes to repatriate these funds. However, ourOur intent is generally to indefinitely reinvest these funds outside of the U.S.United States; however, in connection with the Distribution we reviewed our domestic and foreign cash profile, expected future cash generation and investment opportunities and determined that $515 of previously undistributed foreign earnings would no longer be considered indefinitely reinvested outside the United States. Such undistributed foreign earnings have not been remitted to the United States and the timing of such remittance if any is currently under evaluation. In connection with the review of our currentdomestic and foreign cash profile, we recorded $69 of income tax expense and a corresponding deferred tax liability in the fourth quarter of 2011.

In future periods, we expect to analyze any undistributed foreign earnings and profits for which an applicable outside basis difference exists to continue to support our assertion that such amounts will be indefinitely reinvested outside the United States. For the foreseeable future, ITT plans do not demonstrateto reinvest the excess undistributed foreign earnings in its international operations, consistent with its overall intentions to support growth and expand in markets outside the U.S., particularly in China, Latin and South America, Eastern Europe, India, Africa and the Middle East, as well as other developing and emerging markets, through development of business segment products, increasing non-US capital spending, and potentially acquiring foreign businesses.

The amount and timing of dividends payable on our common stock are within the sole discretion of our Board of

Directors and will be based on, and affected by, a neednumber of factors, including our financial position and results of operations, available cash, expected capital spending plans, prevailing business conditions, and other factors the Board deems relevant. Therefore, there can be no assurance as to repatriate themwhat level of dividends, if any, will be paid in the future. Aggregate dividends paid in 2011 were $193, compared to fund our U.S. operations.

$176 in 2010 and $148 in 2009. After giving effect to the 1:2 Reverse Stock Split, we declared dividends of $0.50 per share of common stock in each of the four quarters of 2010 and the first three quarters of 2011, respectively. In connection with the fourth quarter dividends expected to be declared by Exelis and Xylem of $0.2066 per share and $0.2024 per share, respectively, ITT decreased its quarterly dividend from $0.50 per share to $0.091 per share. Accordingly, dividends expected to be declared in the fourth-quarter for the three companies in the aggregate equaled ITT’s prior quarterly dividend of $0.50 per share. In the first quarter of 2012, we declared a dividend of $0.091 per share for shareholders of record on March 7, 2012. If dividends are declared each quarter of 2012 at a rate of $0.091 per share, aggregate dividends for 2012 would be approximately $35.

Significant factors that affect our overall management of liquidity include our credit ratings, the adequacy of commercial paper and supporting bank lines of credit, and the ability to attract long-term capital on satisfactory terms. We assess these factors along with current market conditions on a continuous basis, and as a result, may alter the mix of our short- and long-term financing when it is advantageous to do so.

We access the commercial paper market to supplement the cash flows generated internally to provide additional short-term funding for strategic investments and other non-recurring funding requirements. We manage our short-term liquidity through the use of our commercial paper program by adjusting the level of commercial paper borrowings as opportunities to deploy additional capital arise, it is cost effective to do so, and a sufficient return on investment can be generated.

Credit Facilities

Our commercial paper program is supported by

Effective October 31, 2011 we replaced a three-year revolving $1.5 billion credit agreement (August 2010 Credit Facility). In August 2010, we replaced with a five-yearnew four-year revolving $1.75 billion$500 credit agreement that was due to expire in November 2010 with the August 2010(the 2011 Revolving Credit Facility.Agreement). The revolving credit agreement2011 Revolving Credit Agreement is intended to provide access to additional liquidity asand be a source of funding for the commercial paper program, if needed. Our policy is to maintain unused committed bank lines of credit in an amount greater than outstanding commercial paper balances. The interest rate for borrowings under the August 20102011 Revolving Credit FacilityAgreement is generally based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), plus a spread, which reflects our debt rating. The provisions of the August 20102011

Asbestos

Based on the estimated asbestos liability as of December 31, 2011 (for claims filed or estimated to be filed through 2021), we have estimated that we will be able to recover 57% of the asbestos indemnity and defense costs for pending claims as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years from our insurers or other responsible parties. However, there is uncertainty in estimating when cash payments related to the recorded asbestos liability will be fully expended and such cash payments will continue for a number of years past 2021 due to the significant proportion of future claims included in the estimated asbestos liability and the lag time between the date a claim is filed and when it is resolved. In addition, because there are gaps in our insurance coverage, reflecting uninsured periods, the insolvency of certain insurers and prior insurance settlements, and our expectation that certain policies from some of our primary insurers will exhaust within the next 10 years, actual insurance reimbursements vary from period to period and the anticipated recovery rate is expected to decline over time. Future recoverability rates may be impacted by other factors, such as future insurance settlements, unforeseen insolvencies and judicial determinations relevant to our January 2011 announced plancoverage program, which are difficult to separate ITT into three publicly traded entities, our short-and long-term credit ratings have been modified as follows:

Standard & Poor’s — “CreditWatch Negative”
Moody’s Investor Service — “under review for possible downgrade”
Fitch Ratings — “Ratings Watch Evolving”
We consider certain debt ratios, including the total debtpredict and subject to total capitalization ratioa high degree of uncertainty.

Subject to these inherent uncertainties, it is expected that future annual cash payments, net of recoveries related to pending asbestos claims and the net debt to net capitalization ratio,unasserted claims estimated to be key indicatorsfiled within the next 10 years, will extend through approximately 2026 due to the length of time between the filing of a claim and its resolution. Certain of our primary coverage in place agreements are expected to exhaust in the next twelve months, which will result in higher net cash outflows for managementthe short-term. These annual net cash outflows are projected to average $10 to $20, net of tax benefits over the

next five years, as compared to an average of approximately $6, net of tax benefits in the past three years, and investorsincrease to an average of approximately $35 to $45, net of tax benefits over the remainder of the projection period. Recovery rates for the tenth year of our model are currently projected to be approximately 27% of cash spent on settlements and defense costs.

In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in evaluating our financial leverage, structurethe long-term projection of the Company’s asbestos exposures and strengthpotential recoveries, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating the number of future claims, the nature of future claims, or the cost to resolve future claims for years beyond the next 10 years at this time. Accordingly, no liability or related asset has been recorded for any costs which may be incurred for claims asserted subsequent to 2021.

Due to these uncertainties, as well as our abilityinability to finance operations.reasonably estimate any additional asbestos liability for claims which may be filed beyond the next 10 years, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of the cost of resolving the pending and estimated unasserted asbestos claims. We calculatebelieve it is possible that the total debt to total capitalization ratiofuture events affecting the key factors and other variables within the next 10 years, as total short-and long-term borrowings (total debt) divided by shareholders’ equity plus total debt (total capitalization). We calculatewell as the cost of asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, net debt to net capitalization ratio as total debt less cashof expected recoveries, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash equivalents divided by total capitalization less cash and cash equivalents. Our current debt ratios have positioned us to grow our business with investments for organic growth and through strategic acquisitions, while providing the ability to return value to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases.

Net cash providedused by operating activities was ($323) in 2011 representing a decrease of $246 from 2010. The decrease in operating cash flow was primarily attributable to several factors,

42


the most significant of which are to a) $355 of cash payments associated with the Distribution, b) lower income from continuing operations of $446 as a result of $396 of Transformation costs and a higher deferred income tax expense of $414, partially offset by lower net asbestos-related costs of $285, c) a cash use associated with changes in working capital of $151, primarily related to changes in the level of trade receivables and accounts payable, and d) a cash benefit from lower accrued income taxes of $160. Net cash payments for asbestos matters in 2011 increased by $21 and contributions to our global postretirement benefit plans increased by $16, while cash payments for restructuring actions decreased by $24 in 2010 as compared to 2009. Contributing factors included: $162 of higher 2010 net tax payments driven by a 2009 income tax refund of $26 and the timing of a $40 extension payment made during the beginning of 2010, an unfavorable 2010 impact from the timing of Defense segment collections received in December 2009 related to certain advance payments, an $85 reduction in contributions to pension plans, that included a $50 discretionary pension contribution in 2010, a $58 benefit from 2010 acquisitions and additional cash generation from sales growth.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $151 in 2009 as compared to 2008. Contributing factors included: $320 from improved accounts receivable conversion and benefits primarily from the timing of Defense segment collections received in December 2009 related to certain advanced customer payments, $99 reduction in net tax payments that included a $26 income tax refund received during 2009 and the timing of a $40 extension payment that was not processed until 2010, a decline in cash receipts due to decreased sales volume, $137 additional contributions to pension plans, including a $100 discretionary 2009 contribution and a $28 increase in restructuring-related payments.
$20.

The annual net cash outflows associated with our asbestos-related liability are projected to average $25$10 to $20, net of tax, over the next five years, as compared to an average of approximately $10 to $15$6, net of tax, in the past three years, and increase to an average of approximately $50$35 to $60$45, net of tax, over the remainder of the projection period. We do not believe, subject to risks and uncertainties inherent in the estimation process, thatcash flows associated with the net asbestos-related liability for pending and unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years will materially affect our short-termshort- or long-term liquidity positions or our operating cash flow.

Net cash used by operating activities was ($77) in 2010, a decrease of $338 as compared to 2009. Significant contributing factors included a) a decrease in operating income from continuing operations of $21 as improved operating performance by the segments was offset by higher net annualasbestos-related costs of $147, b) a cash flows.

benefit from changes in working capital of $63, primarily related to accounts payable which was supporting higher inventory levels, and c) a cash use associated with higher accrued income taxes of $354. Compared to 2009, net cash payments for asbestos matters in 2010 decreased by $7 and contributions to our global postretirement benefit plans increased by $7.

Net cash used in investing activities increaseddecreased by $832$29 in 20102011 as compared to 2009. We invested an additional $1,007 during 2010 in various strategic acquisitions, including Nova and Godwin. We also increased our2010.

Net cash used in investing activities decreasedincreased by $217$50 in 20092010 as compared to 2008,2009 as we increased our capital expenditure spending by $29, primarily related to a $242 decline in acquisition spending. During 2008, we spent $227 related to EDO acquisition payments that carried over from 2007 to 2008 and $49 related to the acquisitions of several smaller companies. During 2009, we made $50 of additional investments related to the construction of radio towers in support of the ADS-B program with the FAA and the implementation of an entity-wide ERP system. These additional investments were partially offsetsystem and a net cash use in 2010 of $10, net of cash acquired, for the acquisition of Canberra.

Net cash provided by 2008 spendingfinancing activities increased by $752 in 2011 as compared to 2010, primarily related to ITT’s new corporate headquarters.

Duringthe $1,586 Contribution paid to ITT by Exelis and Xylem in connection with the Distribution, lower cash used by Xylem for acquisitions and the net effect of the global cash pooling in which Exelis and Xylem participated prior to the Distribution. The proceeds received by ITT from the Contribution were used during October 2011 to repay substantially all outstanding ITT long-term debt, commercial paper and capital leases, as well as debt extinguishment costs of $297 and other cash Transformation costs. Cash provided by financing activities in 2011 also included a cash inflow of $53 from the exercise of employee stock options, an increase of $25 compared to 2010 and cash outflow of $193 related to cash dividend payments, a 9.7% increase over 2010.

Compared to 2009, our 2010 cash flow from financing activities increased $947.

Our cash usage related to financing activities during 2010 was primarily for thealso included $176 payment of dividendsdividend payments that represented an 18.9% increase as compared to 2009. Also during 2010, we used $79 to retire two long-term outstanding debentures.

Consistent with our 2009 and 2010 objectives surrounding the preservation of liquidity, we did not participate in the share repurchase program during either of these years. In 2008, we spent $75, including commission fees, on the repurchase of common stock.

Our average daily outstanding commercial paper balance for the year ended 2011 and 2010 was $231.$128 and $231, respectively. The maximum outstanding commercial paper during 2011 and 2010 was $408 and $620, corresponding to ourwith Xylem’s acquisition of Nova Analytics.YSI in 2011 and Godwin in 2010. As of December 31, 2010,2011, we did not have any commercial paper outstanding.

During the first half of 2012, we expect to receive a $105 refund from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for income taxes previously paid. In addition, we expect to receive an additional $35 income tax refund near the end of 2012 for net operating losses and R&D tax credits generated during 2011 and $25 for carryback of foreign credits to prior years. Under the Tax Matters Agreement, $27 of the $35 refund is owed to Exelis.

Funding of Postretirement Plans

Effective as of the Distribution Date, ITT transferred to Exelis and Xylem certain defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans, most significantly the U.S. Salaried Retirement Plan to Exelis. Following the distribution, Exelis and Xylem assumed all liabilities and assets associated with such plans and became the plans’ sponsors.

43


The net liabilities associated with such plans assumed by Exelis and Xylem were approximately $2,150 and $170, respectively, excluding net deferred tax assets of approximately $800 and $55, respectively.

At December 31, 2010,2011, our global postretirement benefit plans were underfunded by $1.7 billion. The $1.7 billion underfunded obligation includes $773 related$330, of which $146 relates to the U.S. SRP. A substantial portion of the underfunded position arose during the fourth quarter of 2008, when we recognized a significant decline in the fair market value of ourpension plans, including $50 for non-U.S. plans which are typically not funded due to local regulations, and $184 relates to other postretirement benefit plan assets. Favorable market conditions during the latter half of 2009 and throughout 2010 resulted in an increase in the fair market value of our postretirement benefit plan assets. As of December 31, 2010, the U.S. SRP was 83% funded.

plans. Funding requirements under IRS rules are a major consideration in making contributions to our U.S. postretirement benefit plans. With respect to U.S. qualified postretirement benefit plans, we intend to contribute annually not less than the minimum required by applicable law and regulations. In 2010,During 2011, we contributed $76$27 to our U.S. postretirement benefit plans, including a voluntary contribution$18 of $50which was to the U.S. SRP during the fourth quarter.
pension plans and $9 to our other employee-related benefit plans.

While the Company has significant discretion in making voluntary contributions, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended by the Pension Protection Act of 2006 and further amended by the Worker, Retiree, and

38


Employer Recovery Act of 2008 and applicable Internal Revenue Code regulations mandate minimum funding thresholds. Failure to satisfy the minimum funding thresholds could result in restrictions on our ability to amend the plan or make benefit payments. Given our 2010 voluntary contributionIn general, certain benefit restrictions apply when the Adjusted Funding Target Attainment Percentage (AFTAP) of $50, we currently do not believea plan is less than 80%. When the AFTAP is between 80% and 60%, there is a restriction on plan amendments and a partial restriction on accelerated benefit payments (i.e., lump sums cannot exceed 50% of the value of the participants total benefit). Full benefit restrictions apply if the plan’s AFTAP falls below 60%. Although mandatory contributions will be required to our U.S. SRPpostretirement plans were not required during 2011. However,2011, we do anticipate making contributionswill continue to our other postretirement benefit plans inmonitor the range of $90 to $110 during 2011.

The funded status at the end of 2011January 1, 2012 and future requiredstatutory minimum contributions will depend primarily on the actual return on assets during the year and the discount rate, used to measure the benefit obligation at the end of the year.both determined using AFTAP guidelines. Depending on these factors, and the resulting

funded status of our U.S. pension plans, the level of future statutory minimum contributions could be material.

We currently anticipate making contributions of $20 to $25 to our global pension plans during 2012.

Capital Resources

Long-term debt is raised through the offering of debt securities primarily within the United States capital markets. Long-term debt is generally defined as any debt with an original maturity greater than 12 months. We hadOn September 20, 2011, Exelis and Xylem issued an aggregate principal of $1,850 of long-term debt. The Exelis and Xylem Notes were initially guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by ITT.

In addition to the amounts presented in the table above, we have recorded liabilities for pending asbestos claims and unasserted asbestos claims estimated to be filed over the next ten years and uncertain tax positions of $1,676$1,668 and $192,$100, respectively, in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as ofat December 31, 2010.2011. These amounts have been excluded from the contractual obligations table due to an inability to reasonably estimate the timing of payments in individual years.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Off-balance sheet arrangements represent transactions, agreements or other contractual arrangements with unconsolidated entities, where an obligation or contingent interest exists. Our off-balance sheet arrangements, as of December 31, 2010,2011, consist of indemnities related to acquisition and disposition agreements and certain third-party guarantees.

Indemnities

As part of the Distribution, ITT provided certain indemnifications and cross-indemnifications among ITT, Exelis and Xylem, subject to limited exceptions with respect to employee claims. The indemnifications address a variety of subjects, including asserted and unasserted product liability matters (e.g., asbestos claims, product warranties) which relate to products manufactured, repaired and/or sold prior to the Distribution Date. The indemnifications are indefinite. The indemnification associated with pending and future asbestos claims does not expire. In addition, ITT, Exelis and Xylem agreed to certain cross-indemnifications with respect to other liabilities and obligations. ITT expects Exelis and Xylem to fully perform under the terms of the Distribution Agreement and therefore has not recorded a liability for matters for which we have been indemnified. In addition, we are not aware of any claims or other circumstances that would give rise to material payments to Xylem or Exelis under the indemnity provided by ITT.

Since ITT’s incorporation in 1920, we have acquired and disposed of numerous entities. The related acquisition and

disposition agreements contain various representation and warranty clauses and may provide indemnities for a misrepresentation or breach of the representations and warranties by either party. The indemnities address a variety of subjects; the term and monetary amounts of each such indemnity are defined in the specific agreements and may be affected by various conditions and external factors. Many of the indemnities have expired either by operation of law or as a result of the terms of the agreement. We do not have a liability recorded for the historicthese indemnifications and are not aware of any claims or other information that would give rise to material payments under such indemnities.

Guarantees

We have a number of guarantees, letters of credit and similar arrangements outstanding at December 31, 2011 primarily pertaining to commercial or performance guarantees and insurance matters. We have not recorded any loss contingencies under these guarantees, letters of credit and similar arrangements as of December 31, 2011 as the likelihood of nonperformance by the underlying obligors is considered remote. From time to time, we may provide certain third-party guarantees that may be affected by various conditions and external factors, some of which could require that payments be made under such guarantees. We do not consider the maximum exposure or current recorded liabilities under our third-party guarantees to be material either individually or in the aggregate. We do not believe such payments would have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows on a consolidated basis.

Guarantees
As part of

In December 2007, we entered into a sale leaseback agreement for our corporate aircraft, we havewith the aircraft leased to ITT under a five-year operating lease and ITT provided a residual value guarantee to the lessor for the future value of the aircraft. During the second quarter of 2011, we purchased the aircraft with maximum exposure of $42. During 2010, we increased our loss contingency to $17 due to a declinefrom the lessor for $50, the price stated in the projectedsale leaseback agreement, and as such the sale leaseback agreement and the associated residual value guarantee were terminated. In connection with this transaction, we settled a previously recorded $22 residual value guarantee and recognized an additional charge of $3, presented within G&A expenses, as the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the aircraft at the date of termination of the sale leaseback agreement. One of the corporate aircraft was sold for a gain of $3 and the other aircraft was distributed to Exelis, and accordingly, at December 31, 2011, ITT no longer owned any corporate aircraft.

In December 2011, the Flagler County Board of Commissioners approved the termination of certain construction obligations associated with a 1984 Development Order for Development of Regional Impact (“DRI”) known as Hammock Dunes, Florida. On February 1, 2012, lease expiration date.

the Flagler County Board of Commissioners released ITT from further material obligations related to the DRI and cancelled the $10 bond issued in its favor by ITT to secure the construction obligations under the DRI. As a result of the approval to terminate the construction obligation in December 2011, the Company released its $10 previously recorded contingent liability for these construction obligations.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformityaccordance with GAAP requires managementus to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported amountsin the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting policies used in the preparation of assets, liabilities, revenuesthe financial statements are discussed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements. An accounting policy is deemed critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, if different estimates reasonably could have been used, or if changes to the estimate that are reasonably possible could materially affect the financial statements. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and expenses,disclosure of these estimates with the Audit Committee of ITT’s Board of Directors.

The accounting estimates and assumptions discussed below are those that we consider most critical to fully understanding our financial statements and evaluating our results as they are inherently uncertain, involve the most

subjective or complex judgments, include areas where different estimates reasonably could have been used, and the disclosureuse of contingent liabilities. Management bases itsan alternative estimate that is reasonably possible could materially effect the financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other data and assumptions that it believesbelieved to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Senior management has discussed the development, selection and disclosure of these estimates with the Audit Committee of ITT’s Board of Directors.

Significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements are discussed in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Accounting estimates and assumptions discussed in this section are those that we consider most critical to an understanding of our financial statements because they are inherently uncertain, involve significant judgments, include areas where different estimates reasonably could have been used, and changes in the estimate that are reasonably possible could materially impact the financial statements. Management believes that the accounting estimates employed and the resulting balances reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements are reasonable; however, actual results in these areas could differ materially from management’sour estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
and assumptions.

Asbestos Matters

ITT, including its subsidiary Goulds Pumps, Inc. (Goulds), has been joined as a defendant with numerous other companies in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. These claims allege that certain ofproducts sold by us or our products soldsubsidiaries prior to 1985 contained a part manufactured by a third party (e.g., a gasket) which contained asbestos. To the extent these third-party parts may have contained asbestos, it was encapsulated in the gasket (or other) material and was non-friable. In certain other cases, it is alleged that former ITT companies were distributors for other manufacturers’ products that may have contained asbestos.

Estimating our exposure to pending asbestos claims and those that may be filed in the future is subject to significant management judgment, as there is significant uncertainty and risk associated with theas there are multiple variables that can affect the timing, severity, quality, quantity and resolution of claims. The methodology used to project future asbestos costs is based largely on the Company’s experience in a reference period, including the last few years, for claims filed, settled and dismissed, and is supplemented by management’s expectations of the future. This experience is compared to the results of previously conducted epidemiological studies by estimating the number of individuals likely to develop asbestos-related diseases. Those studies were undertaken in connection with an independent analysis of the population of U.S. workers across eleven different industry and occupation categories believed to have been exposed to asbestos. Using information for the industry and occupation categories relevant to the Company, an estimate is developed of the number of claims estimated to be filed against the Company over the next ten years, as well as the aggregate settlement costs that would be incurred to resolve both pending and estimated future claims based on the average settlement costs by disease during the reference period. In addition, the estimate is augmented for the costs of defending asbestos claims in the tort system using a forecast based on recent experience, as well as discussions with the Company’s external defense counsel. In addition,The asbestos liability has not been discounted to present value due to the inability to

46


reliably forecast the timing of future cash flows. The Company retains a consulting firm to assist management in estimating our potential exposure to pending asbestos claims and for claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. The methodology to project future

40


asbestos costs is one in which the underlying assumptions are separately assessed for their reasonableness and then each is used as an input to the liability estimate. Our assessment of the underlying assumptions is based upon recent experience and future expectations, yieldingyields only one value for each assumption.

The liability estimate is most sensitive to those factorsassumptions surrounding mesothelioma and lung cancer claims, as together, thesethe estimated costs to resolve pending and estimated future mesothelioma and lung cancer claims represent nearly 90 percentmore than 90% of the estimated asbestos liability. These factorsexposure, but only 10% of pending claims. The assumptions related to mesothelioma and lung cancer that are most significant include the number of new claims forecast to be filed against the Company in the future, the projected average settlement costs (including the rate of inflation assumed), and the percentage of claims dismissed against the Company. Company that are dismissed without a settlement payment, and the cost to defend against filed claims.

These factorsassumptions are interdependent, and no one factor predominates in estimating the asbestos liability. While there are other potential inputs to the estimation model used to estimate our asbestos exposures for pending and estimated future claims, our methodology relies on the best input available in the circumstances for each individual assumption and does not create a range of reasonably possible outcomes. Projecting future asbestos costs is subject to numerous variables and uncertainties that are inherently difficult to predict. In addition to the uncertainties surrounding the key factors discussed above, other factors includeassumptions, additional uncertainty related to asbestos claims arises from the long latency period prior to the manifestation of thean asbestos-related disease, changes in available medical treatments and changes in medical costs, of medical treatment, the impact ofchanges in plaintiff behavior resulting from bankruptcies of other companies that are potential or co-defendants, uncertainties surrounding the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, and the impact of potential legislative or judicial changes.

Furthermore,

The forecast period used to estimate our potential exposure to pending and projected asbestos claims is a judgment based on a number of factors, including the number and type of claims filed, recent experience with pending claims activity and whether that experience will continue into the future, the jurisdictions where claims are filed, the effect of any predictions with respect tolegislative or judicial developments, and the variables impactinglikelihood of any comprehensive asbestos legislation at the federal level. These factors have both positive and negative effects on the dynamics of asbestos litigation in the tort system and, accordingly, our estimate of the asbestos liability are subjectexposure. Developments related to even greater uncertainty as the projection

asbestos tend to be long-cycle, changing over multi-year periods. Accordingly, we monitor these and other factors and periodically assess whether an alternative forecast period lengthens. In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company’s total asbestos liability, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating those costs at this time. As part of our ongoing review of asbestos claims, each quarter we assess the most recent data available for the key inputs and assumptions, comparing the data to our expectations on which the most recent annual liability estimate was based.

appropriate.

We record a corresponding asbestos-related asset that represents our best estimate of probable recoveries related to the recorded asbestos liability. In developing this estimate, the Company considerscoverage-in-place and other settlement agreements with its insurers and other contractual agreements with responsible parties, as well as a number of additional factors. These additional factors include currentexpected levels of future cost recovery, experience, the financial viability of the insurance companies or other responsible parties, the method by which losses will be allocated to the various insurance policies and the years covered by those policies, the extent to which settlement and defense costs will be reimbursed by the insurance policies, and interpretation of the various policy and contract terms and limits and their interrelationships. The asbestos-related asset has not been discounted to present value.

The Company has negotiated with certain of its excess insurers to reimburse the Company for a portion of its settlement and/or defense costs as incurred, frequently referred to as “coverage-in-place” agreements. Under coverage-in-place agreements, an insurer’s policies remain in force and the insurer undertakes to provide coverage for the Company’s present and future asbestos claims on specified terms and conditions that address, among other things, the share of asbestos claims costs to be paid by the insurer, payment terms, claims handling procedures and the expiration of the insurer’s obligations. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has entered into five coverage-in-place agreements representing approximately 40% of our recorded asset. Certain of our primary coverage-in-place agreements are expected to exhaust in the next twelve months, which will result in higher net cash outflows for the short-term. The Company has entered into policy buyout and settlement agreements with certain insurers confirming the aggregate amount of available coverage under the subject policies and setting forth a schedule for future reimbursement payments to the Company based on aggregate indemnity and defense payments made by the Company. As of December 31, 2011, the Company has entered into two policy buyout and settlement agreements representing approximately 10% of our recorded asset, including an agreement in principal entered into in the fourth quarter of 2011 that will result in $68 million being paid to the Company between 2012 and 2026. In addition, the Company is party to a cost sharing agreement that represents 10% of our recorded asset. The cost sharing agreement provides that responsibility for costs associated with claims resolved gradually transitions away from ITT, such that ITT will have no responsibility for claims resolved beginning no later than July 1, 2022. While there are overall limits on the

47


aggregate amount of insurance available to the Company with respect to asbestos claims, those overall limits were not reached by the estimated liability recorded by the Company at December 31, 2011. In the aggregate, approximately 60% of our asbestos-related asset represents coverage-in-place agreements, policy buyout settlements and other agreements with our insurers and other responsible parties.

The timing and amount of reimbursements from our insurers and other responsible parties will vary due to the lag between when ITT pays an amount to defend or settle a claim and when a reimbursement is received, differing policy terms, and certain gaps in our insurance coverage as a result of someuninsured periods, insurer insolvencies. In addition, theinsolvencies, and prior insurance settlements.

The Company retains an insurance consulting firm to assist management in estimating probable recoveries for pending asbestos claims and for claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years based on the analysis of policy terms, the likelihood of recovery provided by ourexternal legal counsel assuming the continued viability of those insurance carriers and other responsible parties that are currently solvent, and incorporating risk mitigation judgments where policy terms or other factors wereare not certain.

We havecertain, and allocating asbestos settlement and defense costs between our insurers and other responsible parties.

Using the estimated liability as of December 31, 2011 (for claims filed or estimated to be filed through 2021), we estimate that we will be able to recover 62 percentapproximately 57% of the settlementindemnity and defense costs for pending claims as well asand unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years from our insurers and other responsible parties. However, there is uncertainty in estimating when cash payments related to the recorded asbestos liability will be fully expended and such cash payments will continue for a number of years past 2021 due to the significant proportion of future claims included in the estimated asbestos liability and the lag time between the date a claim is filed and when it is resolved. In addition, because there are gaps in our insurance coverage reflecting certain uninsured periods and prior insurance settlements, and we expectour expectation that certain policies from some of our primary insurers will exhaust within the next 10 years, actual insurance reimbursements vary from period to period and the anticipated recovery rate is expected to decline over time. Recovery rates for potential additional asbestos liabilities. Insurance coverage in the tenth year of our estimate of the asbestos liability ismodel are currently projected to be approximately 25 percent.27% of cash spent on settlements and defense costs. Future recoverabilityrecovery rates may also be impacted by other factors, such as future insurance settlements, insolvencies and judicial determinations relevant to our coverage program, which are difficult to predict and subject to a high degree of uncertainty.

The

Our estimated asbestos liability and related receivables are based upon current, known information. However,on management’s best estimate of future events largely

based on past experience; however, past experience may not prove a reliable predictor of the future. Future events affecting the key factorsassumptions and other variables for either the asbestos liability or the related receivables could cause the actual costs and recoveries to be materially higher or lower than currently estimated. For example, a significant upward or downward trend in the number of claims filed, depending on the nature of the alleged injury, the jurisdiction where filed and the quality of the product identification, or a significant upward or downward trend in the costs of defending claims, could change the estimated liability, as would substantial adverse verdicts at trial that withstand appeal. A legislative solution, structured settlement transaction, or significant change in relevant case law could also change the estimated liability. Further, the bankruptcy of an insurer or other responsible party or settlements with our insurers, whether through coverage-in-place agreements or policy buyouts, could change the estimated receivable.

Furthermore, any predictions with respect to the variables impacting the estimate of the asbestos liability and related asset are subject to even greater uncertainty as the projection period lengthens. In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company’s asbestos exposures and potential recoveries, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating the number of future claims, the nature of future claims, or the cost to resolve future claims for years beyond the next 10 years at this time. Accordingly, no accrual or receivable has been recorded for any costs which may be incurred for claims asserted subsequent to 2021.

Due to these uncertainties, as well as our inability to reasonably estimate any additional asbestos liability for claims which may be filed beyond the next 10 years, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of the cost of resolving the pending and allestimated unasserted asbestos claims. We believe it is possible that the future events affecting the key factors and other variables within the next 10 years, as well as the cost of asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, net of expected recoveries, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations orand cash flows.

As part of our ongoing review of our netestimated asbestos exposure and related receivables, each quarter we assess the most recent data available forunderlying the key inputsassumptions related to mesothelioma and assumptions,lung cancer (e.g., claims filed, settled and dismissed, acceptance rates, average settlement values), comparing the data to the

41


expectations on which the most recent annual liability and asset estimates were based. In addition to evaluating ITT’s claims experience, the Company also considers additional quantitative and qualitative factors

48


such as significant appellate rulings and legislative developments, and their respective effects on estimated future filings and settlement values, and trends in the tort system. Our quarterly procedures also involve a review of our assumed recovery rates, considering changes in the financial wherewithal of the insurers and settlements or other agreements with insurers. Provided the quarterly review does not indicate a more detailed evaluation of our asbestos exposure is required, each quarter, we record a net asbestos expense to maintain a rolling 10-year time horizon. In the third quarter each year we conduct a detailed study with the assistance of outside consultants to review and update, as appropriate, the underlying assumptions used to estimate our asbestos liability and related assets. Additionally, we periodically reassessassets, including a reassessment of the time horizon over which a reasonable estimate of unasserted claims can be projected.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is derived from the sale of products and services to customers. We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the sales price is fixed or determinable, collectability is reasonably assured and delivery has occurred. For product sales, other than long-term construction and production-type contracts (referred to as design and build arrangements), we recognize revenue at the time title and risks and rewards of ownership pass to the customer, which is generally when products are shipped, and the contractual terms have been fulfilled. Certain contracts with customers require delivery, installation, testing, certification or other acceptance provisions to be satisfied before revenue is recognized. In instances where contractual terms include a provision for customer acceptance, revenue is recognized when either (i) we have previously demonstrated that the product meets the specified criteria based on either seller or customer-specified objective criteria or (ii) on formal acceptance received from the customer where the product has not been previously demonstrated to meet customer-specified objective criteria.

We recognize revenue on product sales to channel partners, including resellers, distributors or value-added solution providers at the time of sale when the channel partners have economic substance apart from ITT and ITT has completed its obligations related to the sale. Revenue on service and repair contracts is recognized after services have been agreed to by the customer and rendered or over the service period.

We enter into contracts to sell our products and services, and while the majority of our sales agreements contain standard terms and conditions, certain agreements contain multiple elements or non-standard terms and conditions. Where sales agreements contain multiple elements or non-standard terms and conditions, judgment is required to determine the appropriate accounting, including whether the

See Note 19, “Commitments

deliverables specified in these agreements should be treated as separate units of accounting for revenue recognition purposes, and, Contingencies”if so, how the transaction price should be allocated among the elements and when to recognize revenue for each element.

When a sale involves multiple deliverables, the entire fee from the arrangement is allocated to each unit of accounting based on the relative selling price of the deliverable to all other deliverables in the Notescontract. Revenue for multiple element arrangements is recognized when the appropriate revenue recognition criteria for the individual deliverable have been satisfied. The allocation of sales price between elements may impact the timing of revenue recognition, but will not change the total revenue recognized on the arrangement. For agreements that contain multiple deliverables, we recognize revenue based on the relative selling price if the deliverable has stand-alone value to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Postretirement Plans
ITT sponsors numerous defined benefit pension plans for employees around the world. The determination of projected benefit obligationscustomer and, the recognition of expenses related to pension plans are dependent on various assumptions. These major assumptions primarily relate to discount rates, long-term expected ratesin arrangements that include a general right of return on plan assets, raterelative to the delivered element, performance of future compensation increases, mortalitythe undelivered element is considered probable and termination (some of which are disclosed in Note 16, “Postretirement Benefit Plans,”substantially in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements)Company’s control. The selling price for a deliverable is based on vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (VSOE), if available, third-party evidence of selling price (TPE), if VSOE is not available, or best estimated selling price (BESP), if neither VSOE nor TPE is available.

The deliverables in our arrangements with multiple elements include various products and other factors. Actual results that differ from our assumptions are accumulatedmay include related services, such as installation and are amortized generally overstart-up services. We allocate arrangement consideration based on the estimated future working liferelative selling prices of the plan participants.

Significant Assumptions
Management develops each assumptionseparate units of accounting determined in accordance with the hierarchy described above. For deliverables that are sold separately, we establish VSOE based on the price when the deliverable is sold separately. We establish TPE, generally for services, based on prices similarly situated customers pay for similar services from third party vendors. For those deliverables for which we are unable to establish VSOE or TPE, we estimate the selling price considering various factors including market and pricing trends, geography, product customization, and profit objectives.

We recognize revenue on certain design and build projects using relevant Company experience,the completed contract method. Provisions for estimated losses, if any, on uncompleted design and build arrangements, are recognized in conjunction with market-related data for each individual countrythe period in which such plans exist. All assumptionslosses are reviewed periodically with third party actuarial consultants and adjusted as necessary. The table included below provides the weighted average assumptions used to estimate our defined benefit pension obligations and costs as of and for the years ended 2010 and 2009.

                   
   2010  2009 
   U.S.   Int’l  U.S.  Int’l 
Obligation Assumptions:                  
Discount rate   5.73%   5.47%  6.00%  5.79%
Rate of future compensation increase   4.00%   3.26%  4.00%  3.87%
Cost Assumptions:                  
Discount rate   6.00%   5.79%  6.25%  6.14%
Expected return on plan assets   9.00%   7.33%  9.00%  7.29%
Rate of future compensation increase   4.00%   3.84%  4.00%  3.64%
                   
We determine our expected return on plan assets by evaluating both historical returns and estimates of future returns. Specifically, we analyze the plan’s actual historical annual return on assets over the past 15, 20 and 25 years; estimate future returns based on independent estimates of asset class returns; and evaluate historical broad market returns over long-term timeframes based on our strategic asset allocation, which is detailed in Note 16, “Postretirement Benefit Plans,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Based on the approach described above, we estimate the long-term annual rate of return on assets for domestic pension plans at 9.0%. For reference, our actual geometric average annual return on plan assets for domestic pension plans was 8.8%, 10.1% and 10.3%, for the past 15, 20, and 25 year periods, respectively.
The chart below shows actual returns versus the expected long-term returns for our U.S. pension plans that were utilized in the calculation of the net periodic pension cost for each respective year. See Note 16, “Postretirement Benefit Plans,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
              
   2010  2009  2008 
Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets   9.0%  9.0%  9.0%
Actual rate of return on plan assets   14.1%  24.1%  (31.2)%
 
For the recognition of net periodic pension cost, the calculation of the expected return on plan assets is generally derived using a market-related value of plan assets based on average asset values at the measurement date over the last five years. The use of fair value, rather than a calculated value, could materially affect net periodic pension cost. Our weighted average expected return on plan assets for all pension plans, including foreign affiliate plans, at December 31, 2010 is 8.87%.
The discount rate reflects our expectation of the present value of expected future cash payments for benefits at the measurement date. A decrease in the discount rate increases the present value of benefit obligations and increases pension expense. We base the discount rate assumption on current investment yields of high-quality fixed income investments during the retirement benefits maturity period. The pension discount rate was determined by considering an interest rate yield curve comprising AAA/AA bonds, with maturities between zero and thirty years, developed by the plan’s actuaries. Annual benefit payments are then discounted to present value using this yield curve to develop a single-point discount rate matching the plan’s characteristics. Our weighted average discount rate for all pension plans, including foreign affiliate plans, at December 31, 2010 is 5.71%.
The rate of future compensation increase assumption reflects our long-term actual experience and future and near-

term outlook. At December 31, 2010, our expected rate of future compensation of 4.0% for U.S. plan participants was unchanged from the prior year.
Pension Expense
A 25 basis point change in the expected rate of return on plan assets, discount rate, or rate of future compensation increases, would have the following effect on 2011 pension expense:

The amounts included in the table above are on a pre-tax basis, without consideration to potential reimbursement from the DoD.
Funded Status
Funded status is derived by subtracting the respective year-end values of the projected benefit obligations from the fair value of plan assets. ITT’s U.S. Salaried Pension Plan represents approximately 76% of the total pension obligation, and therefore the funded status of the U.S. Salaried Retirement Plan has a considerable impact on the overall funded status of our pension plans.
We estimate that every 25 basis point change in the discount rate impacts the funded status of the U.S. Salaried Pension Plan by approximately $118. Similarly, every five percentage point change in the actual 2011 rate of return on assets impacts the same plan by approximately $187.
Fair Value of Plan Assets
The plan assets of our postretirement plans comprise a broad range of investments, including domestic and foreign equity securities, interests in private equity and hedge funds, fixed income investments, commodities, real estate and cash and cash equivalents.
A substantial portion of our postretirement benefit plan assets portfolio comprises investments in private equity and hedge funds. The private equity and hedge fund investments are generally measured at net asset value. However, in certain instances, the values reported by the asset managers were not current at the measurement date. Accordingly, management has estimated adjustments to the last reported value where necessary to measure the assets at fair value at the measurement date.
These adjustments consider information received from the asset managers, as well as general market information. The adjustment recorded for these assets represented approximately one percent of total plan assets. Asset values for other positions were generally measured using market observable prices.
See Note 16, “Postretirement Benefit Plans” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Revenue Recognition
The Defense segment and certain businesses within the Fluid segment enter into long-term construction-type sales contracts for which revenue is recognized under thepercentage-of-completion method, based upon units of delivery, percentage of costs incurred to total costs, or the completion of scheduled performance milestones. Revenues and profits recognized under thepercentage-of-completion methods are based on management’s estimates such as total contract revenues, contract costs and the extent of progress toward completion.determined. Due to the long-term nature of the contracts, these estimates are subject to uncertainties and require significant judgment. Negotiated fees under certain contractsjudgment and may be increased or decreased in accordance with cost or performance incentive provisions which measure actual performance against established targets or other criteria. Such incentive fee awards or penalties are included in revenue when there is sufficient information to reasonably assess anticipated contract performance. Our claims on contracts are recorded only if it is probable the claim will result in additional contract revenue and the amounts can be reliably estimated. Estimates of contract costs include labor hours and rates, subcontractor costs and material costs. These estimates consider historical performance, the complexity of the work to be performed, the estimated time to complete the project, and other economic factors such as inflation and market rates.
We update our estimates on a periodic basis and any revisions to such estimates are recorded in earnings in the period in which they are determined. Provisionsinflation.

Warranty accruals are established using historical information on the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claims and estimates of future costs. Our standard product warranty terms generally include post-sales support and repairs or replacement of a product at no additional charge for a specified period of time. While we engage in extensive product quality programs and processes, we base our estimated warranty obligation on product warranty terms offered to customers, ongoing product failure rates, materialmaterials usage, and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure, as well as specific product class failures outside of our baseline experience.experience and associated overhead costs. If actual product failure rates, repair rates or any other post-sales support costs differ from these estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required.

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporarythe estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, applying currently enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which we expect the differences will reverse. Based on the evaluation of available evidence, we recognize future tax benefits such as net operating loss carryfowards, to the extent that we believe it is more likely than not we will realize these benefits. We periodically assess the likelihood that we will be able to recover our deferred tax assets and reflect any changes to our estimate of the amount we are more likely than not to realize in the valuation allowance, with a corresponding adjustment to earnings or other comprehensive income (loss), as appropriate.

Significant judgment is required in assessing the need for any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we look toconsider all available evidence, including the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, taxable income in carryback years, the feasibility ofperiods, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies, and estimated future taxable income. The valuation allowance can be affected by changes to tax laws,regulations, interpretations and rulings, changes to enacted statutory tax rates, and changes to future taxable income estimates.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income (including the reversals of deferred tax liabilities) during the periods in which

those deferred tax assets will become deductible. The Company’s management assesses available positive and negative evidence regarding the realizability of its deferred tax assets, and records a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. To form a conclusion, management considers positive evidence in the form of reversing temporary differences, projections of future taxable income and tax planning strategies, and negative evidence such as recent history of losses. Beginning in 2011, the Company is in a cumulative three-year loss position, which we weighted as a significant source of negative evidence indicating the need for a valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets. Since the Company was in a three-year cumulative loss position at the end of 2011, management determined that the size and frequency of the losses from continuing operations in recent years and the uncertainty associated with projecting future taxable income supported the conclusion that a valuation allowance was required to reduce its deferred tax assets. If ITT achieves profitability in future periods, then management will evaluate whether its recent history of profitability constitutes sufficient positive evidence to support a reversal of a portion, or all, of the remaining valuation allowance.

Our effective tax rate reflects the impact of certain undistributed foreign earnings for which we have not provided U.S. taxes because we plan to reinvest such earnings indefinitely outside the United States. We plan foreign earnings remittance amounts based on projected cash flow needs, as well as the working capital and long-term investment requirements of our foreign subsidiaries and our domestic operations. Based on these assumptions, we estimate the amount we will distribute to the United States and provide theaccrue U.S. federal taxes due on these planned foreign remittance amounts. Material changes in our estimates of cash, working capital and long-term investment requirements in the various jurisdictions in which we do business could impact our effective tax rate.

Our provision for income taxes could be adversely impacted by changes in our geographic mix of earnings or changes in the enacted tax rates in the jurisdictions in which we conduct our business.

The calculation of our deferred and other tax liabilitiesbalances involves significant management judgment when dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations and rulings in a multitude of taxing jurisdictions across our global operations. The Company is routinely audited by U.S federal, state and foreign tax authorities, the results of which could result in proposed assessments against the Company. We recognize potential liabilities and record tax liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions based on our estimate of whether, and to the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. Furthermore, we recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position

will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Theposition in consideration of applicable tax statutes and related interpretations and precedents and the expected outcome of the proceedings (or negotiations) with the taxing authorities. Tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized uponon ultimate settlement.

We adjust our liability for uncertain tax positions in light of changing facts and circumstances; however, due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution of a tax examination may resultdiffer from the amounts recorded in the financial statements for a payment that is materially different from our current estimatenumber of reasons, including the Company’s decision to settle rather than litigate a matter, relevant legal precedent related to similar matters, and the Company’s success in supporting its filing positions with the tax liabilities.authorities. If our estimate of tax liabilities proves to be lessdifferent than the ultimate assessment, an additional tax expense would result. If a payment of these amounts ultimately proves to be less thanoutcome, such differences will effect the recorded amounts, the reversal of the liabilities would result in tax benefits being recognizedprovision for income taxes in the period whenin which such determination is made.

Postretirement Plans

ITT sponsors numerous defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans for certain employees around the world (collectively, postretirement benefit plans). Postretirement benefit obligations for domestic plans are generally determined on a flat dollar benefit formula and years of service. Foreign plan benefit obligations are primarily determined based on participant years of service, future compensation, and age at retirement or termination. The determination of projected benefit obligations and the recognition of expenses related to postretirement benefit plans are dependent on various assumptions that are judgmental and developed in consultation with our actuaries and other advisors. The major assumptions involved in the measurement of our postretirement benefit plan obligations and net periodic postretirement costs primarily relate to discount rates, long-term expected rates of return on plan assets, and mortality and termination rates. Actual results that differ from our assumptions are accumulated and are amortized generally over the estimated future working life of the plan participants.

Significant Assumptions

Management develops each assumption using relevant Company experience, in conjunction with market-related data for each individual country in which such plans exist. All assumptions are reviewed with external advisors and adjusted as necessary. The table included below provides the weighted average assumptions used to estimate our defined benefit pension obligations and costs as of and for the years ended 2011 and 2010.

   2011 2010
    U.S. Int’l U.S. Int’l

Obligation Assumptions:

Expected return on plan assets

    9.00%   4.75%   9.00%   4.75%

The assumed discount rates reflect our expectation of the present value of expected future cash payments for benefits at the measurement date. A decrease in the discount rate increases the present value of benefit obligations and increases net periodic postretirement cost. We base the discount rate assumption on current investment yields of high-quality fixed income securities during the retirement benefits maturity period. The discount rates were determined by considering an interest rate yield curve comprising high quality corporate bonds, with maturities between zero and thirty years. Annual benefit payments are then discounted to present value using this yield curve to develop a single-point discount rate matching the plan’s characteristics. Our weighted average discount rate for all postretirement benefit plan obligations, including foreign affiliate plans, at December 31, 2011 is 4.80%.

We determine our expected return on plan assets by evaluating both historical returns and estimates of future returns. Specifically, we determineestimate future returns based on independent estimates of asset class returns weighted by the liabilities are no longer necessary.targeted investment allocation and evaluate historical broad market returns over long-term timeframes based on our targeted asset allocation, which is detailed in Note 17, “Postretirement Benefit Plans,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Based on this approach, our weighted average expected return on plan assets for all postretirement benefit plans, including foreign affiliate plans, at December 31, 2011 is 8.96%.

Prior to the Distribution of Exelis and Xylem, the Company’s U.S. postretirement plans participated in a master trust that invested in asset classes that historically generated asset returns in excess of the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets. With the distribution of certain postretirement benefit plans and their respective plan assets to Exelis and

 

51


Xylem, we developed a new targeted asset allocation that is expected to generate a lower level of returns on plan assets than were realized in the past. Accordingly, we have reduced our long-term expected rate of return on plan assets beginning in 2012. For postretirement plans that participated in the master trust distributed to Exelis, the chart below shows actual returns compared to the expected long-term returns for our U.S. postretirement plans that were utilized in the calculation of the net periodic postretirement cost for each respective year.

    2011 2010 2009

Expected long-term rate of return on plan assets

    9.0%   9.0%   9.0%

Actual rate of return on plan assets

    (3.2)%   14.1%   24.1%

For the recognition of net periodic postretirement cost, the calculation of the expected return on plan assets is generally derived using a market-related value of plan assets based on average asset values at the measurement date over the last five years. The use of fair value, rather than a market-related value, of plan assets could materially affect net periodic postretirement cost.

Assumption Sensitivity

A 25 basis point increase or decrease in the expected rate of return on plan assets, discount rate, or rate of future compensation increases, would not have a material effect on 2012 postretirement expense. We estimate that every 25 basis point change in the discount rate impacts the funded status of our postretirement benefit plans by approximately $14. Similarly, every five percentage point change in the fair value of plan assets impacts the funded status by approximately $10.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

We review goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. We also review the carrying value of our finite-lived intangible assets for potential impairment when impairment indicators arise. We conduct our annual impairment test as of the first day of the fourth quarter. We perform a two-step impairment test for goodwill. In the first step, we compare the estimated fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit, goodwill is not impaired and we are not required to perform further testing. If the carrying value of the net assets assigned to the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then we must perform the second step of the impairment test in order to measure the impairment loss to be recorded. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference. In our annual impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets, we

compare the fair value of those assets to their carrying value. We recognize an impairment loss when the estimated fair value

44


of the indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying value. We estimate the fair value of our reporting units and intangible assets with indefinite lives using an income approach.approach, corroborated by market multiples when appropriate. Under the income approach, we calculate fair value based on the present value of estimated future cash flows.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit or an indefinite-lived intangible asset is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions, particularly related to future operating results and cash flows. These estimates and assumptions include, but are not limited to, revenue growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rates, assumed royalty rates, future economic and market conditions and identification of appropriate market comparable data. In addition, the identification of reporting units and the allocation of assets and liabilities to the reporting units when determining the carrying value of each reporting unit also requires judgment. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level, which, based on the applicable accounting guidance, is either the reportable segment (e.g., for the Fluid segment) identified in Note 21, “Business Segment22, “Segment Information,” to our Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, or one level below (e.g., the divisions of our Defense and Motion and Flow segments)Control Technology segment). The fair value of our reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets are based on estimates and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable. Significant changes to these estimates and assumptions could adversely impact our conclusions. Actual future results may differ from those estimates.

Our 2010 Further, had different reporting units been identified or had different valuation methodologies or assumptions been utilized, the results of our impairment tests could have resulted in an impairment loss, which could have been material.

The 2011 annual goodwill impairment test indicated that the fair value of each reporting unit was significantly in excess of its respective carrying value. In connection with the Distribution of Exelis and Xylem, we conducted an interim goodwill impairment test as of October 31, 2011. The 2011 interim goodwill impairment analysis indicated the estimated fair value of our reporting units significantly exceeded their carrying value,value. The reporting unit with the lowest passing margin as of the 2011 interim goodwill impairment test had $56 million of goodwill and accordingly,passed the test by 39%. Accordingly, no reporting unit with significant goodwill was at risk of failing step one of the goodwill impairment charges were recorded.test at October 31, 2011. In order to evaluate the sensitivity of the fair value estimates on the goodwill impairment test, we applied a hypothetical 100 basis point increase to the discount rates utilized, a ten percent reduction in expected future cash flows,

and reduced the assumed future growth rates of each reporting unit to zero. These hypothetical changes did not result in any reporting unit failing step one of the impairment test. Further, our 20102011 annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test did not result in an impairment charge as the estimated fair value of the assets significantly exceeded their carrying value.values.

Environmental Liabilities

We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations that require environmental assessment or remediation efforts. Accruals for environmental exposures are recorded on a site-by-site basis when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. Significant judgment is required to determine both the likelihood of a loss and the estimated amount of loss. Engineering studies, probability techniques, historical experience and other factors are used to identify and evaluate remediation alternatives and their related costs in estimating our reserve for environmental liabilities. Our environmental reserve of $102 related to environmental matters at December 31, 2011, represents management’s estimate of undiscounted costs expected to be incurred related to environmental assessment or remediation efforts, as well as related legal fees, without regard to potential recoveries from insurance companies or other third parties. Our estimated liability is reduced to reflect the participation of other potentially responsible parties in those instances where it is probable that such parties are legally responsible and financially capable of paying their respective share of the relevant costs. Our environmental accruals are reviewed and adjusted for progress of investigation and remediation efforts and as additional technical or legal information become available, such as the impact of negotiations with regulators and other potentially responsible parties, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other current information.

We closely monitor our environmental responsibilities, together with trends in the environmental laws. Environmental remediation reserves are subject to numerous inherent uncertainties that affect our ability to estimate our share of the costs. Such uncertainties involve incomplete information regarding particular sites and other potentially responsible parties, uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of contamination at each site, the extent of remediation required under existing regulations, our share of any remediation liability, if any, widely varying cost estimates associated with potential alternative remedial approaches, the length of time required to remediate a particular site, the potential effects of continuing improvements in remediation technology, and changes in environmental standards and regulatory requirements. While environmental laws and regulations are

subject to change, the nature of such change is inherently unpredictable and the timing of potential changes is uncertain. The effect of legislative or regulatory changes on environmental standards could be material to the Company’s financial position or results of operations. Additionally, violations by us of such laws and regulations, discovery of previously unknown or more extensive contamination, litigation involving environmental impacts, our inability to recover costs associated with any such developments, or financial insolvency of other potentially responsible parties could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the ultimate costs of environmental remediation, the reasonably possible low- and high end range of our estimated environmental liability, for these environmental matters at December 31, 2011 was $81 and $175.

  ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE
DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a result of our global operating and financing activities, we are exposed to market risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates interest rates and commodity prices, which may adversely affect our operating results and financial position. The impact

from changes in market conditions is generally minimized through our normal operating and financing activities. However, we may use derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts, to manage some of these exposures. We do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes. To minimize the risk of counterparty non-performance, derivative instrument agreements are made only through major financial institutions and there is no significant concentration of exposure with any one party.counterparty. A summary of our accounting policies for derivative financial instruments is included in Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Exposures

Our foreign currency exchange rate risk relates to receipts from customers, payments to suppliers and intercompany transactions denominated in foreign currencies. We primarily utilize forward contracts to mitigate exposures related to intercompany transactions. As of December 31, 2010,2011, we had a total of 133 forward contracts in place to mitigate exposures related to intercompany transactions with an aggregate notional amount of $197$64 and related net fair value of $2.less than $1. These forward contracts are all short-term in duration, generally maturing within three months from contract date. We may also use derivative financial instruments to offset risk related to receipts from customers and payments to suppliers, when it is believed that the exposure will not be limited by our normal operating and financing activities. Our principal currency exposures relate to the U.S. dollar, Euro, Swedish krona,Czech Kurona, Chinese Renminbi, South Korean Won, Mexican Peso, British pound,Pound, Brazilian Real, Australian Dollar and Canadian dollar, Chinese renminbi and Australian dollar.Dollar. We currently do not believe the net exposure related to receipts from customers and payments to suppliers to be significant, as such we have not entered into any derivative financial instruments to offset this potential exposure.

We estimate that a hypothetical 10% adverse movement in foreign currency rates to which we are exposed would not be material to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Effective January 1, 2010, Venezuela was determined to be a highly inflationary economy.economy and we changed the functional currency of our operations in Venezuela to the U.S dollar. In addition, on January 8, 2010, Venezuela announced the devaluation of the Bolivar and provided further currency adjustments on January 1, 2011. Given our limited presence in Venezuela, the devaluation, as well as the highly inflationary accounting treatment has not resulted in, nor is notit expected to have, a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Portions of our business are exposed to volatility in the prices of certain commodities, such as copper,steel, iron, aluminum, nickel, tin, and aluminum,copper, among others. Our primary exposure to thiscommodity price volatility resides with the use of these materials in purchased component parts. We generally maintain long-term fixed price contracts on raw materials and component parts; however, we are prone to exposure as these contracts expire. We estimate that a hypothetical 10% adverse movement in prices for raw metal commodities would not be material to the financial position, results of operations or cash flows; however, it is difficult to estimate the extent and timing of how such a rise in raw metal commodities would impact our total cost of purchased component parts.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined inRules 13a-15(f) and15d-15(f) under the Act. The 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, completely, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; (iii) provide reasonable assurance that Company receipts and expenditures are made only in accordance with the authorization of management and the directors of the Company, and (iv) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements. Internal control over financial reporting includes the controls themselves, monitoring and internal auditing practices and actions taken to correct deficiencies as identified.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010.2011. Management based this assessment on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in “Internal Control  Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. Management reviewed the results of its assessment with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

Based on this assessment, management determined that, as of December 31, 2010,2011, the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s management, including the CEO and the CFO, does not expect that our internal controls over financial reporting, because of inherent limitations, will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may be inadequate because of changes in conditions,

55


or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management’s assessment, included herein, should be read in conjunction with the certifications and the report issued by Deloitte & Touche LLP (Deloitte & Touche), an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which appears subsequent to Item 9A(c)9B in this Annual Report onForm 10-K.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

ITT Corporation

White Plains, New York

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of ITT Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010,2011, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanyingManagement’s Report on InternalControl Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. 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.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel 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 the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010,2011, based on the criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 20102011 of the Company and our report dated February 24, 201129, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

ITT Corporation

White Plains, New York

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of ITT Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 20102011 and 2009,2010, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in shareholders’ equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010.2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our 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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ITT Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 20102011 and 2009,2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010,2011, 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), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010,2011, based on the criteria established inInternal Control – Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 24, 201129, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

NOTE 1

Description of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

ITT Corporation is a global multi-industry leaderindustrial company specializing in high-technologythe engineering and manufacturing, operating through three principal business segments; Defense & Information Solutions (Defense segment), Fluid Technology (Fluid segment) and Motion & Flow Control (Motion & Flow segment). The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally acceptedmanufacture of critical components in the United States of America (GAAP).aerospace, transportation, energy and industrial markets. Unless the context otherwise indicates, references herein to “ITT,” “the Company,” and such words as “we,” “us,” and “our” include ITT Corporation and its subsidiaries. CertainITT operates through four segments: Industrial Process consisting of industrial pumping and complementary equipment; Motion Technologies consisting of friction and shock & vibration equipment; Interconnect Solutions (ICS) consisting of electronic connectors; and Control Technologies consisting of fluid handling, motion control and vibration and shock isolation products. Financial information for our segments is presented in Note 22, “Segment Information.”

Basis of Presentation

On October 31, 2011, ITT Corporation made a pro rata distribution to its shareholders consisting of all the shares of common stock of Xylem Inc. (Xylem, previously referred to as the water-related businesses), which held ITT’s interests in the water businesses, and all the shares of common stock of Exelis Inc. (Exelis, previously referred to as ITT’s Defense & Information Solutions segment), which held ITT’s interests in the defense businesses (the Distribution). These financial statements have been reclassified to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Exelis and Xylem as discontinued operations in all periods presented. For further information on the discontinued operations of Exelis and Xylem, see Note 4, “Discontinued Operations.” In addition, in conjunction with the Distribution, we implemented changes to our management structure and changed our segment reporting structure.

On October 31, 2011, we completed a one-for-two reverse stock split (1:2 Reverse Stock Split) of ITT’s issued and outstanding common stock, as approved by our Board of Directors. The par value of our common stock remained $1 per share following the 1:2 Reverse Stock Split. All common stock shares authorized, issued and outstanding, as well as share prices and earnings per share give effect to the 1:2 Reverse Stock Split in all periods presented.

In addition to the reclassification effects from the Distribution, certain other prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Reclassifications principally relate to the designation of CAS, Inc. (CAS)presentation as a discontinued operation and accordingly,described within these reclassifications have affected the results of continuing operations for historical periods. See Note 4, “Discontinued Operations,” in our Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the CAS divestiture.Statements.

Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are revised as additional information becomes available. Estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, asbestos-related liabilities and recoveries from insurers and other responsible parties, postretirement obligations and assets, revenue recognition, income tax contingency accruals and valuation allowances, postretirement obligations and assets, goodwill and other intangible asset impairment testing, environmental liabilities, allowance for doubtful accounts and contingent liabilities.inventory valuation. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Principles of Consolidation Principles

Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries. ITT consolidates companies in which it has a controlling financial interest or when ITT is considered the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. We account for investments in companies over which we have the ability to exercise significant influence, but do not hold a controlling interest under the equity method, and we record our proportionate share of income or losses in the Consolidated Income Statements. The results of companies acquired or disposed of during the fiscal year are included in the Consolidated Financial Statements from the effective date of acquisition or up to the date of disposal.disposal or distribution. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Business CombinationsRevenue Recognition

ITT allocates the purchase price of its acquisitions to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests acquired based on their estimated fair value at the acquisition date. Changes to acquisition date fair values prior to the expiration of the measurement period, a period not to exceed 12 months from date of acquisition, are recorded as an adjustment to the associated goodwill. Changes to acquisition date fair values after expiration of the measurement period are recorded in earnings. The excess of the acquisition price over those estimated fair values

Revenue is recorded as goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses and restructuring costs are recognized separatelyderived from the business combinationsale of products and are expensed as incurred.

Revenue Recognition
services to customers. The following revenue recognition policies describe the manner in which we account for different classes of revenue transactions.

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the sales price is fixed or determinable, collectability is reasonably assured and delivery has occurred or services have been rendered. For product sales, other than long-term construction-typeconstruction and production-type contracts (referred to as design and build arrangements), we recognize revenue at the time title and risks and rewards of ownership pass to the customer, which is generally when products are shipped.shipped, and

67


ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

the contractual terms have been fulfilled. Certain contracts with customers require delivery, installation, testing, certification or other acceptance provisions to be satisfied before revenue is recognized. In instances where contractual terms include a provision for customer acceptance, revenue is recognized when either (i) we have previously demonstrated that the product meets the specified criteria based on either seller or customer-specified objective criteria or (ii) on formal acceptance received from the customer where the product has not been previously demonstrated to meet customer-specified objective criteria.

We recognize revenue on product sales to channel partners, including resellers, distributors or value-added solution providers at the time of sale when the channel partners have economic substance apart from ITT and ITT has completed its obligations related to the sale. Service revenueRevenue on service and repair contracts is recognized asafter services are performed. For agreementshave been agreed to by the customer and rendered or over the service period.

Effective January 1, 2011, we adopted amended guidance on the accounting for revenue arrangements that contain multiple deliverables,elements. The amended guidance was applied to new arrangements or arrangements materially modified on or after January 1, 2011 on a prospective basis.

For multiple deliverable arrangements entered into or materially modified on or after January 1, 2011, we recognize revenue for a delivered element when itbased on the relative selling price if the deliverable has stand-alone value to the customer there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the undelivered elements, and, in arrangements that include a general right of return relative to the delivered element, performance of the undelivered element is considered probable and substantially in the Company’s control.

The Defense segmentselling price for a deliverable is based on vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (VSOE), if available, third-party evidence of selling price (TPE), if VSOE is not available, or best estimated selling price (BESP), if neither VSOE nor TPE is available.

The deliverables in our arrangements with multiple elements include various products and certain businesses withinmay include related services, such as installation and start-up services. We allocate arrangement consideration based on the Fluid segment enter into long-term construction-type sales contractsrelative selling prices of the separate units of accounting determined in accordance with the hierarchy described above. For deliverables that are sold separately, we establish VSOE based on the price when the deliverable is sold separately. We establish TPE, generally for services, based on prices similarly situated customers pay for similar services from third party vendors. For those deliverables for which revenuewe are unable to establish VSOE or TPE, we estimate the selling price considering various factors including market and pricing trends, geography, product customization, and profit objectives. Revenue for multiple element arrangements is recognized underwhen thepercentage-of-completion method based upon appropriate revenue recognition criteria for the individual deliverable have been satisfied.

For arrangements entered into prior to January 1, 2011 and not subsequently materially modified, if objective and reliable evidence of fair value existed for all of the units of delivery, percentageaccounting identified, the transaction consideration was allocated based on the relative fair values of costs incurred to total costs, or the completion of scheduled performance milestones. For units of delivery, revenuesaccounting. Alternatively, when the evidence of fair value existed for the delivered items, but not the undelivered items, the arrangement consideration was allocated using the residual method.

We recognize revenue on certain design and profits are recognized based uponbuild projects using the ratio of actual

58


ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
units delivered to estimated total units to be delivered under the contract. Under thecost-to-total cost method, revenue is recognized based upon the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion. Revenue is recognized under the milestone method, based upon accomplishing a clear deliverable output of contract performance with value to the customer. Revenue under cost-reimbursement contracts is recorded as costs are incurred and includes estimated earned fees or profits calculated on the basis of the relationship between costs incurred and total estimated costs. Revenue and profits ontime-and-material type contracts are recognized based on billable rates times direct labor hours incurred plus material and other reimbursable costs incurred. The completed contract method is utilized when reasonable and reliable cost estimates for a project cannot be made.method. Amounts invoiced to customers in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenue, until the revenue recognition criteria are satisfied, and isare recorded as a component of accounts payable. Revenue that is earned and recognized in excess of amounts invoiced is recorded as a component of trade receivables.
accrued liabilities.

During the performance of long-term sale contracts,design and build arrangements, estimated final contract prices and costs are periodically reviewed and revisions are made as required and recorded in earnings in the period in which they are determined. Additionally, the fees under certain contracts may be increased or decreased in accordance with cost or performance incentive provisions which measure actual performance against established targets or other criteria. Such incentive fee awards or penalties are included in revenue when there is sufficient information to reasonably assess anticipated contract performance. Our claims on contracts are recorded only if it is probable the claim will result in additional contract revenue and the amounts can be reliably estimated.quarterly. Provisions for estimated losses if any, on uncompleted long-term contracts,design and build arrangements are maderecognized in the period in which such losses are determined anddetermined. Provisions for estimated losses are recorded as a component of costs of revenue.

We record a reduction in revenue at the time of sale for estimated product returns, rebates and other allowances, based on historical experience and known trends. Additionally, accruals for estimated expenses related to warranties are made at the time products are sold or services are rendered and are recorded as a component of costs of revenue. These accruals are established using historical information on the nature, frequency and average cost of warranty claims and estimates of future costs.

Revenue is reported net of any required taxes collected from customers and remitted to government authorities, with the collected taxes recorded as current liabilities until remitted to the relevant government authority.

Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs are recorded as a component of costs of revenue.

Product Warranties

Our standard product warranty terms generally include post-sales support and repairs or replacement of a product at no additional charge for a specified period of time. Accruals for estimated expenses related to product warranties are made at the time revenue is recognized and are recorded as a component of costs of revenue. We estimate the liability for warranty claims based on our standard warranties, the historical frequency of claims and the cost to replace or repair our products under warranty. Factors that influence our warranty liability include the number of units sold, the length of warranty term, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims and the cost per claim.

Asbestos-Related Liabilities and Assets

ITT has been named as a defendant in numerous product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. We accrue the estimated value of pending claims and

 

68


ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years, including legal fees, on an undiscounted basis. Assumptions utilized in estimating the liability for both pending and unasserted claims include: disease type, average settlement costs, percentage of claims settled or dismissed, the number of claims estimated to be filed against the Company in the future and the costs to defend such claims. In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company’s asbestos liability, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating those costs at this time.

The Company has also recorded an asbestos-related asset, comprised predominantly of insurance receivables and expected recoveries from other responsible parties. The asbestos-related asset represents our best estimate of probable recoveries from third parties for pending claims, as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. In developing this estimate, the Company considers coverage-in-place and other settlement agreements with its insurers and other contractual agreements with responsible parties, as well as a review of expected levels of future cost recovery, the financial viability of the insurance companies or other responsible parties, the method by which losses will be allocated to the various insurance policies and the years covered by those policies, and interpretation of the various policy and contract terms and limits and their interrelationships.

As part of our ongoing review of our net asbestos exposure, each quarter we assess the most recent data available for the key inputs and assumptions, comparing the data to the expectations on which the most recent annual liability and asset estimates were based. Provided the quarterly review does not indicate a more detailed evaluation of our asbestos exposure is required, each quarter, we record a net asbestos expense to maintain a rolling 10-year time horizon. In the third quarter each year we conduct a detailed study with the assistance of outside consultants to review and update, as appropriate, the underlying assumptions used to estimate our asbestos liability and related assets, including a reassessment of the time horizon over which a reasonable estimate of unasserted claims can be projected.

Postretirement Benefit Plans

ITT sponsors numerous pension and other employee-related defined benefit plans (collectively, postretirement benefit plans) for certain employees around the world. Postretirement benefit obligations are generally determined, where applicable, based on participant years of service, future compensation, age at retirement or termination, and medical cost trends. The determination of projected benefit obligations and the recognition of expenses related to postretirement benefit plans are dependent on various assumptions.assumptions that are judgmental and

developed in consultation with our actuaries and other advisors. The major assumptions involved in the measurement of our postretirement benefit plan obligations and net periodic postretirement costs primarily relate to discount rates, long-term expected rates of return on plan assets, rate of future compensation increases, mortality and termination rates, health care inflation trend rates and other factors. Management develops each assumption using relevant company experience in conjunction with market-related data for each individual country in which such plans exist. All actuarialActual results that differ from our assumptions are reviewed periodically with third-party consultantsaccumulated and adjusted as necessary.amortized over the estimated future working life of the plan participants. For the recognition of net periodic postretirement cost, the calculation of the long-term expected return on plan assets is generally derived using a market-related value of plan assets based on yearly average asset values at the measurement date over the last five years. Actual results that differ from our assumptions are accumulated and amortized over the estimated future working life of the plan participants.

The fair value of plan assets is determinedestimated based on market prices or estimated fair value at the measurement date. See Note 16,17, “Postretirement Benefit Plans,” for further information on the measurement of fair value.

plan assets.

The funded or unfunded positionstatus of each plan is recorded on our balance sheet. Actuarial gains and losses and prior service costs or credits that have not yet been recognized through net (loss) income are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within shareholders’ equity, net of taxes, until they are amortized as a component of net periodic postretirement cost.

Research and Development

Research and development (R&D) programs include Company-sponsored activities as well as activities performed pursuant to customer contracts. R&D costs incurred as part of a Company-sponsored activity are charged to expense as incurred and are reported as a component of operating income within the R&D expense line. R&D costs incurred under customer contracts reported as a component of costs of revenue when the expense is incurred.
Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based awards issued to employees and non-employee directors include non-qualified stock options, restricted stock

Compensation costs resulting from share-based payment transactions are recognized primarily within SG&A,general and administrative expenses, at fair value over the requisite service period (typically three years) on a straight-line basis. The calculatedamount of compensation cost is adjustedrecognized includes an adjustment based on an estimate of awards ultimately expected to vest. The fair value of a non-qualified stock option is determined on the date of grant using a binomial lattice pricing model incorporating multiple and variable assumptions over time, including assumptions such as employee exercise patterns, stock price volatility and changes in dividends. The fair value of restricted stock awards is determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on date of grant. The fair value of our liability-based awards, including cash awards under our Long-Term Incentive Plan, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period, including an adjustment for awards that are not ultimately expected to vest.
period.

Asbestos-Related Contingencies and ReceivablesRestructuring

ITT is a defendant in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. We recognize an undiscounted liability for any asbestos-related contingency that is probable of occurrence and reasonably estimable. We have accrued for the estimated value of pending claims and unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years, including legal fees. Factors utilized in determining the liability for both pending and unasserted claims include: disease type, average settlement costs, percentage of claims settled or dismissed, and the number of new claims filed against the Company. In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company’s total asbestos liability, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating those costs at this time. In addition, the Company retains a consulting firm to assist management in estimating our potential exposure to pending asbestos claims and for claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years.
The Company has also recorded an asbestos asset, comprised predominantly of an insurance asset and expected recoveries from other responsible parties. The asbestos asset represents our best estimate of probable recoveries from third parties for pending claims, as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. The timing and amount of reimbursements will vary due to differing policy terms and certain gaps in coverage as a result of possible insurer insolvencies.
As part of our ongoing review of our net asbestos exposure, each quarter we assess the most recent data available for the key inputs and assumptions, comparing the data to the expectations on which the most recent annual liability and asset estimates were based. In the third quarter each year, we conduct a detailed study with the assistance of outside consultants to review and update, as appropriate, the underlying assumptions to estimate our asbestos liability and related assets. Additionally, we periodically reassess the time horizon over which a reasonable estimate of unasserted claims can be projected.
Restructuring

We periodically initiate management approved restructuring activities to achieve cost savings through reduced operational

redundancies and to strategically position ourselves in the market in response to prevailing economic conditions and associated customer demand. Costs associated with restructuring actions can include severance, infrastructure charges to vacate facilities or consolidate operations, contract termination costs and other related charges. For involuntary separation plans, a liability is recognized when it is probable and reasonably estimable. For voluntary separation plans, a liability is recognized when the employee irrevocably accepts the voluntary termination. For one-time termination benefits, such as additional severance pay or benefit payouts, and other exit costs, such as lease termination costs, the liability is measured and recognized initially at fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred, with subsequent changes to the liability recognized as adjustments in the period of change.

Income Taxes

We determine the provision for income taxes using the asset and liability approach. Under this approach, deferred income taxes representtax assets and liabilities are determined based on the expectedestimated future tax consequenceseffects of temporary differences between the carrying amountsfinancial reporting and tax basisbases of assets and liabilities.liabilities, applying currently enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which we expect the differences will reverse. We record a valuation allowance to reduceagainst our deferred tax assets when uncertainty regarding their realizability exists.

In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, we look toconsider all available evidence, including the future reversal of existing taxable temporary differences, taxable income in carryback years, the feasibility ofperiods, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies, and estimated future taxable income. The valuation allowance can be affected by changes to tax laws,regulations, interpretations and rulings, changes to enacted statutory tax rates, and changes to future taxable income estimates.

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income (including the reversals of deferred tax liabilities) during the periods in which those deferred tax assets will become deductible. The Company’s management assesses available positive and negative evidence regarding the realizability of its deferred tax assets, and records a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. To form a conclusion, management considers positive evidence in the form of reversing temporary differences, projections of future taxable income and tax planning strategies, and negative evidence such as recent history of losses. Beginning in 2011, the Company is in a cumulative three-year loss position, which we weighted as a significant source of negative evidence indicating the need for a valuation allowance on our net deferred tax assets. Since the Company was in a three-year cumulative loss position at the

end of 2011, management determined that the size and frequency of the losses from continuing operations in recent years and the uncertainty associated with projecting future taxable income supported the conclusion that a valuation allowance was required to reduce its deferred tax assets. If ITT achieves profitability in future periods, then management will evaluate whether its recent history of profitability constitutes sufficient positive evidence to support a reversal of a portion, or all, of the remaining valuation allowance.

We have not provided deferred tax liabilities for the impact of U.S income taxes on undistributed foreign earnings which we plan to reinvest indefinitely outside the United States. We have recorded deferred tax liabilities for the impact of U.S income taxes on undistributed foreign earnings which are not indefinitely reinvested outside the United States. We plan foreign earnings remittance amounts based on projected cash flow needs, as well as the working capital and long-term investment requirements of foreign subsidiaries and our domestic operations.

Furthermore, we recognize the tax benefitsbenefit from an uncertain tax positionsposition only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.

Foreign Currency Translation
The national currencies of our foreign companies are generally the functional currencies. Balance sheet accounts are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the end of each period; income statement accounts are translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Gains and losses on foreign currency translations are reflected in the cumulative translation adjustments component of shareholders’ equity. Net gains or losses from foreign currency transactions are reported currently in selling, general and administrative expenses.
Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per common share considers the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, as well as outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends. Diluted earnings per share considers the outstanding shares utilized in the basic earnings per share calculation as well as the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and restricted stock that do not contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends.

Diluted shares outstanding include the dilutive effect of in-the-money options, unvested restricted stock and unvested restricted stock units. The dilutive effect of such equity awards is calculated based on the average share price for each reporting period using the treasury stock method. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the computation of earnings per share if they have an anti-dilutive effect.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

ITT considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity or remaining maturity at time of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. We did not have any investments in marketable securities reported within cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010. As of December 31, 2009, marketable securities included in cash and cash equivalents totaled $72.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject ITT to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and, accounts receivable from trade customers, and derivative contracts.customers. We maintain cash and cash equivalents and derivative contracts with various financial institutions. These financial institutions are located in many different geographical regions, and our policy is designed to limit exposure with any one institution. As part of our cash and risk management processes, we perform periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of the financial institutions. We have not sustained any material credit losses during the previous three years from instruments held at financial institutions. We may utilize forward contracts to protect against the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. Such contracts involve the risk of non-performance by the counterparty.

The U.S. government accounted for 25% and 18% of gross accounts receivable at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Credit risk with respect to other accounts receivable is generally diversified due to the large number of entities comprising ITT’s customer base and their dispersion across many different industries and geographic regions. ITT performs ongoing credit evaluations of the financial condition of its third-party distributors, resellers and other customers and requires collateral, such as letters of credit and bank guarantees, in certain circumstances.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

We determine our allowance for doubtful accounts using a combination of factors to reduce our trade receivables balances to their estimated net realizable amount. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, macroeconomic trends and conditions, significant one-time events, historical experience and the financial condition of customers. We record a specific reserve for individual accounts when we become aware of specific customer circumstances, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position. The past due or delinquency status of a receivable is based on the contractual payment terms of the receivable. If circumstances related to the specific customer change, we adjust estimates of the recoverability of receivables as appropriate.

Inventories

Inventories, which include the costs of material, labor and overhead, are recordedstated at the lower of cost or market, with cost generally computed on afirst-in, first-out (FIFO) basis. A full absorption policy is employed using standard cost techniques that are periodically reviewed and adjusted. Estimated losses from obsolete and slow-moving inventories are recorded to reduce inventory values to their estimated net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are measured as the difference between the cost of the inventory and market based assumptions about future demand and is charged to cost of sales. At the point of loss recognition, a new cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in a recovery in carrying value. Inventories valued under thelast-in, first-out (LIFO) method represent 7.1%17.6% and 6.4%12.8% of total 20102011 and 2009 2010

inventories, respectively. There would notWe have been a material difference in the valueLIFO reserve of inventories if the FIFO method had been used to value all inventories.

Inventoried costs related to long-term contracts are stated at the$8 and $7 recorded as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Cost of sales is reported using standard cost techniques with full overhead absorption, which generally approximates actual production cost, including overhead and other related non-recurring costs incurred to date reduced by amounts identified with revenue recognized on units delivered or progress completed. General and administrative costs applicable to cost-reimbursement type contracts are also included in inventories. Inventoried costs relating to long-term contracts and programs are reduced by charging any amounts in excess of estimated realizable value to costs of revenue.

Plant, Property and Equipment

Plant, property and equipment, including capitalized interest applicable to major project expenditures, are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the economicestimated useful lives of the assets involved as follows: buildings

61


ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
and improvements – five to 40 years, machinery and equipment – two to 10 years, furniture and office equipment – three to seven years, and other – five to 40 years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the life of the lease or the asset, whichever is shorter. Fully depreciated assets are retained in property and accumulated depreciation accounts until disposal.
Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

The Company enters into operating and capital leases for the use of premises and equipment. Rent expense related to operating lease agreements are recorded on a straight line basis, considering lease incentives and escalating rental payments.

Capitalized Internal Use Software

Costs incurred in the preliminary project stage of developing or acquiring internal use software are expensed as incurred. After the preliminary project stage is completed, management has approved the project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used for its intended purpose, ITT capitalizes certain internal and external costs incurred to acquire or create internal use software, principally related to software coding, designing system interfaces and installation and testing of the software. ITT amortizes capitalized internal use software costs using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the software, generally from three to seven years.

Investments in Corporate-Owned Life Insurance

Investments in corporate-owned life insurance (COLI) policies are recorded at their cash surrender values as of each balance sheet date. The total amounts related to the Company’s investments in COLI policies are included in other non-current assets in the consolidated balance sheets and were $79 and $76 at December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Changes in the cash surrender value during the period are recorded as a gain or loss within operating expenses and were not material in the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009. These investments were made with the intention of utilizing them as a long-term funding source for deferred compensation obligations, which as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 were

ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

approximately $20 and $16, respectively, however, the COLI policies do not represent a committed funding source for these obligations and as such they are subject to claims from creditors, and we can designate them for another purpose at any time.

Long-Lived Asset Impairment

Long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives and capitalized internal use software, are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. We assess the recoverability of long-lived assets based on the undiscounted future cash flow the assets are expected to generate and recognize an impairment loss when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset plus net proceeds expected from disposition of the asset, if any, are less than the carrying value of the asset. When an impairment is identified, we reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value based on a discounted cash flow approach or, when available and appropriate, to comparable market values.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents purchase consideration paid in a business combination that exceeds the values assigned to the net assets of acquired businesses. Intangible assets include customer relationships, proprietary technology, trademarks, patents and other intangible assets. Intangible assets with a finite life are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated economic useful life, which generally range from15-20 years, and are tested for impairment if indicators of impairment are identified. Certain of our intangible assets have an indefinite life, namely certain brands and trademarks.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but insteadrather are tested for impairment annually (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, such as changes to the reporting unit structure, significant adverse changes in the business climate or an adverse action or assessment by a regulator). We conduct our annual impairment testing on the first day of the fourth fiscal quarter. For goodwill, the impairment test is a two-step test. In the first step, the estimated fair value of each reporting unit is compared to the carrying value of the net assets assigned to that reporting unit. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is not performed. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, then the second step of the impairment test is performed in order to measure the impairment loss to be recorded.recorded, if any. If the carrying value of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, then we record an impairment loss equal to the difference. We estimate the fair value of our reporting units and

indefinite-lived intangible assets using an income approach. Under the income approach, we estimate fair value based on the present value of estimated future cash flows.

Business Combinations

ITT allocates the purchase price of its acquisitions to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests acquired based on their estimated fair value at the acquisition date. Changes to acquisition date fair values prior to the expiration of the measurement period, a period not to exceed 12 months from date of acquisition, are recorded as an adjustment to the associated goodwill. Changes to acquisition date fair values after expiration of the measurement period are recorded in earnings. The excess of the acquisition price over those estimated fair values is recorded as goodwill. Acquisition-related expenses and restructuring costs are recognized separately from the business combination and are expensed as incurred.

Commitments and Contingencies

We record accruals for commitments and loss contingencies for those which are both probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. In addition, legal fees are accrued for cases where a loss is probable and the related fees can be reasonably estimated. Significant judgment is required to determine both probability and the estimated amount of loss. We review these accruals quarterly and adjust the accruals to reflect the impact of negotiations, settlements, rulings, advice of legal counsel, and other updatedcurrent information.

Environmental Liabilities

Accruals for environmental matters are recorded on a site by sitesite-by-site basis when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. Our estimated liability is reduced to reflect the anticipated participation of other potentially responsible parties in those instances where it is probable that such parties are legally responsible and financially capable of paying their respective shares of the relevant costs. These accruals are adjusted periodically as assessment and remediation efforts progress or as additional technical or legal information become available. Actual costs to be incurred at identified sites in future periods may vary from the estimates, given inherent uncertainties in evaluating environmental exposures. Accruals for environmental liabilities are primarily included in other non-current liabilities at undiscounted amounts and exclude claims for recoveries from insurance companies or other third parties. Recoveries

Foreign Currency Translation

For foreign subsidiaries that do not use the local currency as their functional currency, foreign currency assets and liabilities are remeasured to the foreign subsidiary’s functional currency using end of period exchange rates, except for nonmonetary balance sheet accounts, which are remeasured at historical exchange rates.

For transactions denominated in other non-currentthan the functional currency, revenue and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the reporting period in which the transactions occurred, except for expenses related to nonmonetary assets when the recovery is probable.

and liabilities. Transaction gains or losses from foreign currency remeasurement are reported in general and administrative expenses.

Fair Value Measurements

ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels.levels based on the observability of the input. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), then to quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets (Level 2) and gives the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

Derivative Financial Instruments

ITT uses derivative financial instruments, primarily foreign currency forward contracts, to mitigate exposure from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations as it pertains to intercompany transactions. We do not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes. We record derivatives at their fair value as either a currentan asset or current liability. We include adjustments to reflect changes in fair values of derivatives in earnings as these contracts are not designated as hedges. The amount of gains and losses recorded related to our foreign currency exchange contracts and the net fair value of our outstanding contracts was not material as of and for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 2009 and 2008.2009. Such contracts involve the risk of non-performance by the counterparty. The fair values associated with the foreign currency contracts have been determined using the net position of the contracts and the applicable spot rates and forward rates as of the reporting date.

ITT may use interest rate swaps to manage its debt portfolio, the related financing costs and interest rate structure. Interest rate swaps involve the periodic exchange of payments without the exchange of underlying principal or notional amounts. Net payments are recognized as an adjustment to interest expense. When interest rate swaps designated as hedges are terminated, unrealized gains or losses are deferred and amortized over the shorter of the remaining original term of the hedging instrument or the remaining life of the underlying debt instrument. Such gains or losses are reflected in net interest expense. As of December 31, 2010 and 2009 we did not have any material open interest rate swaps.

In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU)No. 2010-28, which provides additional guidance whenapplicable to the testing of

goodwill for potential impairment. Specifically, for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts, an entity is required to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test (a comparison between the carrying amount of a reporting unit’s goodwill to its implied fair value) if it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists, considering any adverse qualitative factors. As of the date of our 2010 annual goodwill impairment test, the net carrying amounts for each of our reporting units exceeded zero. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2010. We currently do not expectAs of the date of our annual and interim goodwill impairment tests, none of our reporting units were affected by the application of this guidance as each reporting unit had a carrying amount that exceeded zero.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB amended the accounting and disclosure requirements related to the consolidation of variable interest entities (VIE(s)). The amendments include replacing the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation for determining which enterprise, if any, has a controlling financial interest in VIE(s) with an approach focused on identifying which enterprise has the power to direct the activities of VIE(s) that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (1) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity or (2) the right to receive benefits from the entity. In addition, the amendments require an ongoing assessment of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of the VIE(s) and requires additional disclosures about an enterprise’s involvement in VIE(s). The adoption of these amendments on January 1, 2010 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU2009-12 which provides guidance under the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic,ASC 820-10. The new guidance provides investors a practical expedient for measuring the fair value of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (NAV). This ASU is effective for periods ending after December 15, 2009. Adoption did not have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In August 2009, the FASB issued ASU2009-05 which provides additional guidance on the application of fair value techniques for liabilities under the Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic (ASC 820). The guidance clarifies that the quoted price for the liability when traded as an asset in an active market is a Level 1 measurement, when no adjustment to the quoted price is required. In the absence of a Level 1 (quoted price) measurement, an entity must use one or more valuation techniques to estimate fair value in a manner consistent with the principles in ASC 820. The requirements under this ASU were effective for our fourth quarter period beginning October 1, 2009. Adoption did not have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In January 2009, the FASB amended the requirements pertaining to the method of applying the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations. These amendments included that acquisition costs will generally be expensed as incurred; noncontrolling interests will be valued at fair value at the acquisition date; in-process research and development will be recorded at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset at the acquisition date; restructuring costs associated with a business combination will generally be expensed subsequent to the acquisition date; and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense. These amendments have been applied prospectively to business combinations with an acquisition date subsequent to January 1, 2009. While the new business combination accounting guidance did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements on adoption, the effects on future periods will depend upon the nature and significance of future business combinations.

Acquisitions
During 2010, we spent an aggregate of $1,041, net of cash acquired, primarily on the acquisitions of Nova Analytics Corporation (Nova) and Godwin Pumps of America, Inc. and Godwin Holdings Limited (collectively referred to as Godwin). Thefinancial position, results of operations andor cash flows from our 2010 acquisitions have been included in our Consolidated Financial Statements prospectively from their date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations for acquisitions completed in 2010, 2009 and 2008 have not been presented because they are not materialflows.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In September 2011, the FASB provided companies with the option to our Consolidated Financial Statements, either individually or in the aggregate. Provided below is additional information related to the Nova and Godwin acquisitions.

Nova Analytics
On March 23, 2010, we acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of Nova, a manufacturer of premium quality laboratory, field, portable and on-line analytical instruments used in water and wastewater, environmental, medical, and food and beverage applications, for a purchase price of $385, net of cash acquired. Nova provides us with brands, technologies, distribution and after-market content in the analytical instrumentation market. The addition of Nova broadens the solutions our Fluid segment offers customers in key markets such as municipal water and wastewater, industrial processing, and food and beverage.

Other assets acquired and liabilities assumed as part ofthis qualitative assessment determines whether it is necessary to perform the acquisition were $70 primarily related to working capital balances and $81 primarily related to deferred tax liabilities, respectively. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired equal to $232 was recorded as goodwill (whichcurrently required two-step impairment test. If it is more likely than not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes). The goodwill arising from the acquisition consists largely of the planned expansion of the Nova footprint to new geographic markets, synergies and economies of scale. All of the goodwill has been assigned to the Fluid segment.

Godwin Pumps
On August 3, 2010, we acquired 100% of the privately held stock of Godwin for a purchase price of $580, net of cash acquired. Godwin is a supplier and servicer of automatic self-priming and on-demand pumping solutions serving the global industrial, construction, mining, municipal, oil and gas dewatering markets. The addition of Godwin’s specialized products and skills to our Fluid segment’s broad submersible pump portfolio and global sales and distribution network provides significant geographic expansion opportunities.
The purchase price for Godwin was allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of August 3, 2010. The aggregate estimated fair value of customer relationships, trademarks and proprietary technology was $107, $46 and $14, respectively. Other assets acquired as part of the acquisition were $191, primarily including rental equipment, inventory, and trade receivables. Liabilities assumed as part of the acquisition were $30. The excess of the purchase price overthat the fair value of net assets acquired equala reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a company would be required to $252 was recorded asperform the two-step impairment test. This guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill a significant portion of which isimpairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company could elect to apply the option in future goodwill impairment tests; however, the amendments are not expected to be deductiblehave a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued guidance intended to achieve common fair value measurements and related disclosures between U.S. GAAP and international accounting standards. The amendments primarily clarify existing fair value guidance and are not intended to change the application of existing fair value measurement guidance. However, the amendments include certain instances where a particular principle or requirement for income tax purposes. The goodwill arisingmeasuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed. This guidance is effective for the periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and early application is prohibited. We will

adopt these amendments on January 1, 2012; however, the requirements are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 3 Company Transformation

NOTE 3

Company Transformation

As mentioned in Note 1, on October 31, 2011, the Company completed the legal and structural separation of Exelis and Xylem from the acquisitionCompany into two independent, publicly traded companies via a tax-free Distribution to shareholders. The Distribution was made pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, dated October 25, 2011, among ITT, Exelis and Xylem (the Distribution Agreement). With the completion of these separations, the Company disposed of its water-related businesses and Defense segment in their entirety and ceased to consolidate their financial position and results of operations in its consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the Company has presented the financial position and results of operations of its former water-related businesses and Defense segment as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements for all periods presented. See Note 4, “Discontinued Operations,” for additional information. The water-related businesses include the Water & Wastewater division, including its analytical instrumentation component, and the Residential & Commercial Water division previously reported within the Fluid Technology segment, as well as the Flow Control division that was previously reported within the Motion & Flow segment. The Industrial Process division, which was previously reported within the Fluid Technology segment, was not included in the Distribution and is primarilynow reported as a segment of ITT.

During 2011, we recognized pre-tax expenses of $636 in connection with activities taken to complete the Distribution and to create the revised organizational structure (referred to herein as Transformation costs). We have presented $396 of the pre-tax transformation costs within income from continuing operations and $240 within income from discontinued operations. Amounts presented within discontinued operations are costs directly related to the planned geographic expansionDistribution and provide no future benefit to the Company.

NOTE 4

Discontinued Operations

On October 31, 2011, the Company completed the Distribution of Exelis and Xylem (see Note 1). ITT was designated as the accounting and legal spinnor with respect to the Fluid segment.Distribution. In connection with the Distribution, ITT received a net cash transfer (the Contribution) of $683 and $988 from Exelis and Xylem, respectively. No gain or loss was recognized in connection with the Distribution. While we are a party to a Distribution Agreement and several other agreements, including a Tax Matters Agreement, Benefits and Compensation Matters Agreement and Master Transition Services Agreement, we have determined we do not have significant continuing involvement in

2009

the operations of Xylem or Exelis, nor do we expect significant continuing cash flows from Exelis or Xylem. As a result, the operating results of Exelis and 2008 Acquisitions

During 2009, we spent $34, netXylem through the date of cash acquired, on acquisitions that were not material individually orthe Distribution have been classified in the aggregate to our results ofconsolidated financial statements as discontinued operations or financial position. The most significant of these acquisitions was Laing GmbH (Laing), which we acquired in May of 2009. Laing, a privately held producer of energy-efficient circulator pumps primarily used in residential and commercial plumbing and heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems, was fully integrated into the Fluid segment during 2009.
During 2008, we spent $276, net of cash acquired, on acquisitions that were not material individually or in the aggregate to our results of operations or financial position. The cash spent on acquisitions during 2008 included $226 related to our 2007 acquisition of EDO Corporation (EDO), a global aerospace and defense company.

Discontinued Operations
for all periods presented.

During 2010 we sold CAS, Inc. (CAS), a component of our prior Defense & Information Solutions business segment, (Defense segment) engaging in systems engineering and technical assistance (SETA) for the U.S. Government. The sale of CAS was completed on September 8, 2010, resulting in the recognition of a $130 after-tax gain, reported as a component of income from discontinued operations within our Consolidated Income Statements. This transaction resulted in a tax benefit of $4, primarily due to the difference in the book and tax bases of CAS. Proceedsproceeds from the sale of CAS were $237.

Subsequent to this divestiture, we do not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of CAS, nor do we expect significant continuing cash flows from CAS. Accordingly, the financial position and results of operations from CAS are reported as a discontinued operation for the 2010 and 2009 periods.

Interest expense was not allocated to the divested businesses for any of the periods presented.The following tablepresented.

Amounts presented for 2010 and 2009 have been adjusted to reflect certain immaterial corrections, primarily relating to income taxes, to the amounts previously reported in the consolidated financial statements. See Note 23, “Immaterial Corrections,” for further information.

In order to effect the Distribution and govern ITT’s relationship with Exelis and Xylem after the Distribution, ITT entered into a distribution agreement and several other agreements, including a tax matters agreement, employee benefits and compensation agreement and master transition services agreement. Information on the agreements utilized to effectuate the Distribution are provided below.

Distribution Agreement

The Distribution Agreement between ITT and Exelis and Xylem contains the key provisions relating to the separation of the businesses of Exelis and Xylem from ITT and the distribution of the shares of Exelis and Xylem common stock to our shareholders. The Distribution Agreement provides the framework for the allocation, transfer and assumption of assets and liabilities among ITT, Exelis and Xylem as well as the settlement or extinguishment of certain liabilities and other obligations between and among ITT, Exelis and Xylem. Under the Distribution Agreement, we agreed to indemnify Exelis and Xylem and their respective subsidiaries and affiliates, subject to limited exceptions with respect to certain employee claims, against claims and liabilities related to the past operation of ITT’s business (other than the liabilities of the divested businesses) and Exelis and Xylem agreed to indemnify us against claims and liabilities related to their respective businesses. The Distribution Agreement establishes that certain liabilities, e.g., the bond litigation, referenced in Note 20,

“Commitments and Contingencies,” will be shared 21% to ITT, 40% to Exelis, and 39% to Xylem.

In connection with the Distribution, ITT retained certain material contingent legacy liabilities involving asbestos and environmental matters. See Note 20, “Commitments and Contingencies,” for information regarding asbestos and environmental related contingencies.

Tax Matters Agreement

On October 25, 2011, we entered into a Tax Matters Agreement with Exelis and Xylem that governs the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of the companies after the Distribution with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, tax contests and other tax sharing regarding U.S. Federal, state, local and foreign income taxes, other tax matters and related tax returns. Exelis and Xylem have liability with ITT to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for the consolidated U.S. Federal income taxes of the ITT consolidated group relating to the taxable periods in which Exelis and Xylem were part of that group. However, the Tax Matters Agreement specifies the portion, if any, of this tax liability for which ITT, Exelis and Xylem will bear responsibility, and ITT, Exelis and Xylem agreed to indemnify each other against any amounts for which they are not responsible. The Tax Matters Agreement also provides special rules for allocating tax liabilities in the event that the Distribution is determined to not be tax-free. The Tax Matters Agreement provides for certain covenants that may

ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Assets

restrict our ability to pursue strategic or other transactions that otherwise could maximize the value of our business and may discourage or delay a change of control that may be considered favorable. Though valid as between the parties, the Tax Matters Agreement will not be binding on the IRS.

Pursuant to the Tax Matters Agreement, as the shared income tax liabilities are settled, ITT will make payments up to certain specified thresholds, with payments in excess of those specified thresholds shared among ITT, Exelis, and Xylem. If payments to the taxing authorities are less than certain specified thresholds, ITT will make payments up to the remaining specified thresholds to Exelis and Xylem. Settlement is expected to occur as the audit process by applicable taxing authorities is completed for the impacted years and cash payments are made. Given the nature of the shared tax liabilities, the maximum amount of potential future payments is not determinable. Any such cash payments, when they occur, will reduce the liability for uncertain tax positions as such payments represent an equivalent reduction of risk. At December 31, 2011, ITT’s accrual for uncertain tax positions includes amounts related to certain shared tax liabilities; however, no receivables from Exelis or Xylem have been recorded as our estimate of their portion of the shared tax liabilities is not more than the amounts currently accrued for the uncertain tax position. If our estimate of exposures to the shared tax liabilities increases above the specified threshold, a receivable would be recorded. At December 31, 2011, there is a tax indemnification liability recorded of $4 due to Xylem.

Adjustments in the future for the impact of filing final income tax returns in certain jurisdictions where those returns include a combination of ITT, Exelis and Xylem legal entities and for certain amended income tax returns for the periods prior to the Distribution may be recorded to either shareholders’ equity or the statement of income depending on the specific item giving rise to the adjustment.

Benefits and Compensation Matters Agreement

On October 25, 2011, we entered into a Benefits and Compensation Matters Agreement with Exelis and Xylem that governs the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of Exelis, Xylem and ITT after the Distribution with respect to transferred employees, defined benefit pension plans, defined contribution pension plans, nonqualified pension plans, employee health and welfare benefit plans, incentive plans, corporate-owned life insurance, stock equity awards, foreign benefit plans, director plans and collective bargaining agreements. The Benefits and Compensation Matters Agreement provides for the allocation and treatment of assets and liabilities arising out of CAS reportedincentive plans, pension plans and employee welfare benefit programs in which Exelis and Xylem employees participated prior to the Distribution. Generally,

Exelis and Xylem assumed or retained sponsorship of, and liabilities relating to, employee compensation and benefit programs relating to Exelis and Xylem current employees.

The Benefits and Compensation Matters Agreement also provided that outstanding ITT equity awards would be equitably adjusted in connection with the Distribution. All outstanding ITT equity awards held by employees of Exelis as discontinued operations withinof the Distribution Date were substituted for Exelis equity awards and all outstanding ITT equity awards held by employees of Xylem as of the Distribution Date were substituted for Xylem equity awards. As described in Note 18, “Long-Term Incentive Employee Compensation,” the substitution preserved the economic value of the cancelled ITT equity awards for employees of Exelis and Xylem as of the Distribution Date. Subject to the applicable transition period with respect to certain benefit plans or programs, after the Distribution, employees of Exelis and Xylem no longer participate in ITT’s plans or programs, and Exelis and Xylem have established or maintained plans or programs for their employees.

Master Transition Services Agreement

On October 25, 2011, we entered into a Master Transition Services Agreement with Exelis and Xylem, under which each of Exelis and Xylem or their respective affiliates provide us with certain services (including information technology, financial, procurement and human resource services, benefits support services and other specified services), and we or certain of our Consolidated Balance Sheetaffiliates provide each of Exelis and Xylem certain services (including information technology, human resources services and other specified services). These services will initially be provided at cost with scheduled, escalating increases to up to cost plus 10% and generally extend for a period of 3 to 24 months and are presentedintended to help ensure an orderly transition for each of Exelis, Xylem and ITT following the Distribution.

During November and December of 2011, we billed Exelis and Xylem approximately $22, primarily relating to active employee health benefits which continued to be administered by ITT. On January 1, 2012, the administration of the employee health benefit plans was transferred to Exelis and Xylem. Total billings by Exelis and Xylem to ITT, following the Distribution, amount to less than $1. As of December 31, 2011, we have an aggregate receivable and payable, associated with transactions related to the Master Transition Services Agreement, of less than $1 each.

Subcontract Pending Novation

On October 31, 2011, we entered into a Subcontract Agreement Pending Novation with Exelis through which ITT engaged Exelis as a subcontractor for approximately 425 U.S. government contracts. Exelis will be obligated to directly perform to the contract specifications to the satisfaction of the U.S. Government as if the contracts had been novated. The

77


ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Subcontract Agreement Pending Novation will remain in effect until the earlier of the U.S. Government’s agreement to novate is completed or performance under the contract is completed. ITT and Exelis are working with the U.S. Government to finalize the novation of the underlying contracts and do not expect any disruptions as a result of this process.

All rights and benefits conferred or accruing under the contracts pending novation inure to Exelis. Pursuant to the terms of the Subcontract Agreement Pending Novation, ITT is obligated to immediately deposit all proceeds it receives under such government contracts into a bank account controlled by Exelis. Exelis has indemnified ITT against claims and liabilities related to the U.S. Government contracts pending novation arising in connection with performance under the contracts.

While the novation is pending, ITT does not have the ability to significantly influence Exelis’ performance under the contracts as Exelis acts as the contracted party and has assumed control of all legal matters, including with respect to audits performed by the U.S. Government. Further, ITT has granted Exelis the right to, among other things, (i) prepare, execute and submit invoices in the table below.

2010 Defense Segment Realignment ActivitiesStrategic Relocation of Manufacturing Operations

During the firstfourth quarter of 2010,2009, we initiated an action within Motion Technologies to realignrelocate certain of our Defense segmentproduction operations to enable better product portfolio integration, encouraging a more coordinated market approach and reduced operational redundancies. As partlower cost regions. This action resulted in $21 of the strategic realignment of the Defense segment, the previous organizational structure, consisting of seven divisions, was consolidated into three larger divisions. Thetotal restructuring charges, incurred during 2010 under this action primarily related to employee severance and to a lesser extent, lease cancellation and other costs associated with three facilities that were substantially closed during 2010. Headcount reductions totaling 642 were originally planned under this action, including 162 factory workers, 457 office workers and 23 management employees. As of December 31, 2010, substantially all of this headcount initiative has been completed. We do not expect to incur significant restructuring charges under this action going forward.

ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Deferred tax assetsWe recorded the valuation allowance in 2011 primarily because 2011 operating results produced a cumulative three-year loss, which is considered a significant factor that is difficult to overcome when determining whether a valuation allowance is required.Since the Company was in a three-year cumulative loss position at the end of 2011, management determined that the size and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences betweenfrequency of the financial reportinglosses from continuing operations in recent years and tax bases of assets and liabilities, applying enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which we expectuncertainty associated with projecting future taxable income supported the differences will reverse.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities include the following:
           
   2010   2009 
Deferred Tax Assets:          
Employee benefits  $650   $736 
Accruals   391    281

Included within theconclusion that a valuation allowance was required to reduce its deferred tax table provided above is $6assets.

As a result of net deferredthe Distribution and its impacts on the Company’s expected liquidity, investment opportunities and other factors, the Company determined that certain earnings generated in Luxemburg, Japan, and South Koreawere no longer considered to be indefinitely reinvested. As a result of the change in intent, the Company recorded $69 of income tax liabilityexpense on these undistributed foreign earnings. However, as of December 31, 2009 related to discontinued operations.

Deferred taxes in the Consolidated Balance Sheets consist of the following:
           
   2010   2009 
Current assets  $280   $232 
Non-current assets   554    583 
Current liabilities   (12)   (36)
Other non-current liabilities   (52)   (54)
           
   $770   $725 
           
As of December 31, 2010,2011, we have not provided for deferred taxes on the remaining excess of financial reporting over the tax basis of investments in certain foreign subsidiaries in the amount of $1,865$370 because we plan to reinvest such earnings indefinitely outside the United States. While the amount of federal income taxes, if such earnings are distributed in the future, cannot be determined, such taxes may be reduced by tax credits and other deductions.

As a consequence of the Distribution, certain state deferred tax assets were revalued based on enacted tax rates

using different state apportionment factors, effectively increasing the future state tax rates at which these deferred tax assets will be benefitted resulting in a $31 income tax benefit.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, applying enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which we expect the differences will reverse.

Uncertain Tax Positions

We recognize income tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements from such positions are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits asfor each of the three years ended December 31, 2010 and 20092011 is as follows:

As of December 31, 2010, $902011, $92 of the unrecognized tax benefits would affect the effective tax rate if realized. Included in the balance at December 31, 20102011 are tax positions of $96,$72, which, because of deferred tax accounting would not impact the annual effective rate, but could accelerate the payment of cash to the taxing authority. In addition, tax positionsSee Note 4, “Discontinued Operations” for discussion of $6 attributable to discontinued operations would not impact the annual effective tax rate.
Tax Matters Agreement.

We do not believe that the uncertain tax positions will significantly change within twelve months of the reporting date.

In many cases, uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by the relevant taxing authorities.Theauthorities. The following table summarizes the earliest open tax years by major jurisdiction:

We classify interest relating to tax matters as a component of interest expense and tax penalties as a component of income tax expense in our Consolidated Income Statement. During 2011 and 2010, we recognized less than $1 in net interest expense related to tax matters. During 2009, we recognized net interest income of $3 primarily due to an interest settlement claim with the IRS. We had $23$18 and $14 of interest accrued as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and 2009.

Based on the results of itsour annual impairment tests, performed as of October 1, 2011, and subsequent tests

performed as of the Distribution Date for Exelis and Xylem, we determined that no impairment of goodwill existed as of theeither measurement date in 2010 or 2009.2011.

Revolving Credit Facility

On October 25, 2011, we entered into a competitive advance and revolving credit facility agreement (2011 Revolving Credit Agreement) with a consortium of third party lenders including JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and Citibank, N.A. as syndication agent. Upon its effectiveness at

 
Commercial Paper
The weighted average interest rate for outstanding commercial paper was 0.21% at December 31, 2009. Our commercial paper program is supported by a revolving credit agreement with the intended purposes of providing additional liquidity, if needed. In August 2010, we replaced a $1.75 billion revolving credit agreement with a new three-year $1.5 billion revolving credit agreement (August 2010 Credit Facility). The interest rate for borrowings under these agreements is generally based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), plus a spread, which reflects ITT’s debt rating. The commitment fee on the August 2010 Credit Facility is 0.225% of the total commitment.

The provisions of

the Distribution, this agreement requirereplaced our existing $1,500 three-year revolving credit facility due August 2013. The 2011 Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a four-year maturity with a one-year extension option upon satisfaction of certain conditions, and comprises an aggregate principal amount of up to $500 of (i) revolving extensions of credit (the revolving loans) outstanding at any time, (ii) competitive advance borrowing option which will be provided on an uncommitted competitive advance basis through an auction mechanism (the competitive advances), and (iii) letters of credit in a face amount up to $100 at any time outstanding. Subject to certain conditions, we are permitted to terminate permanently the total commitments and reduce commitments in minimum amounts of $10. We are also permitted, subject to certain conditions, to request that we maintainlenders increase the commitments under the facility by up to $200 for a maximum aggregate principal amount of $700. Voluntary prepayments are permitted in minimum amounts of $50.

At our election, the interest rate per annum applicable to the competitive advances will be based on either (i) a Eurodollar rate determined by reference to LIBOR, plus an applicable margin offered by the lender making such loans and accepted by us or (ii) a fixed percentage rate per annum specified by the lender making such loans. At our election, interest rate per annum applicable to the revolving loans will be based on either (i) a Eurodollar rate determined by reference to LIBOR, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements, plus an applicable margin or (ii) a fluctuating rate of interest determined by reference to the greatest of (a) the prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., (b) the federal funds effective rate plus one-half of 1% or (c) the 1-month LIBO rate, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements, plus 1%, in each case, plus an applicable margin.

Our obligations under the credit facility are unconditionally guaranteed by each of our direct or indirect domestic subsidiaries.

The credit facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, will limit or restrict our ability to: incur additional debt or issue guarantees; create liens; enter into certain sale and lease-back transactions; merge or consolidate with another person; sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of assets; liquidate or dissolve; and enter into restrictive covenants. Additionally, the 2011 Revolving Credit Agreement requires us not to permit the ratio of consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (leverage ratio) to exceed 3.00 to 1.00 at any time, or the ratio of consolidated EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, and Amortization) to consolidated interest expense ratio greater(interest coverage ratio) to be less than 3.5:1.3.00 to 1.00.

Termination of Capital Lease

During the second quarter of 2011, we notified the lessor of our intent to terminate a sale leaseback agreement entered into in 2004 by repurchasing the leased property. The leased property includes five manufacturing and (ii)office facilities. The repurchase occurred on September 28, 2011 when ITT paid the sumlessor $66 million related to the capital lease obligation.

NOTE 1617 Postretirement Benefit Plans

NOTE 17

Postretirement Benefit Plans

In connection with the Distribution, certain pension and other employee-related benefit plans (collectively, postretirement benefit plans) were contributed by ITT to Exelis and Xylem. Exelis and Xylem assumed all assets and liabilities of the contributed plans and became the plans’ sponsor on the date of the Distribution. Most significantly, Exelis became the plan sponsor of the former U.S. ITT Salaried Retirement Plan (SRP). ITT’s U.S salaried employees no longer accrue retirement benefits under SRP and all benefits accrued as of the Distribution date were frozen. Benefit payments to participants in the SRP that remained ITT employees following the Distribution will be made by Exelis. During 2011, 2010, and 2009, ITT recorded expenses of approximately $15, $9 and $4, respectively, related to the participation of ITT employees in the SRP. Included in the 2011 cost of ITT participation in the SRP is a curtailment charge of approximately $1 related to the reduction in benefits, including the effect of immediate recognition of prior service costs and the impact of special termination benefits. All assets and liabilities related to postretirement benefit plans that were contributed to Exelis and Xylem, including the SRP, are reflected in discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.

Effective at the date of Distribution, the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees was created,

which increased company contributions from a maximum of 3.5% of base pay to 6% or 7%, depending on age and years of service, of total eligible pay which includes base pay, overtime and bonuses. Additionally, for five years subsequent to the distribution, the Company will provide transition credits to certain employees up to 5% of eligible pay.

Defined Contribution Plans

Substantially all of ITT’s U.S. and certain international employees are eligible to participate in a defined contribution plan. ITT sponsors numerous defined contribution savings plans, which allow employees to contribute a portion of their pre-taxand/or after-tax income in accordance with specified guidelines. Several of the plans require us to match a percentage of the employee contributions up to certain limits. MatchingCompany contributions charged to income amounted to $64, $44$8, $7 and $47$5 for 2011, 2010 and 2009, and 2008, respectively.

The ITT Stock Fund, an investment option under the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried InvestmentEmployees and the ITT Hourly Savings Plan, is considered an Employee Stock Ownership Planemployee stock ownership plan and, as a result, participants in the ITT Stock Fund may receive dividends in cash or may reinvest such dividends into the ITT Stock Fund. The ITT Stock Fund held approximately 8.30.5 shares of ITT common stock at December 31, 2010.

2011. At the date of distribution, for each share of ITT common stock in the ITT Stock Fund, a share of common stock of each Exelis and Xylem was received. As of December 31, 2011, there were 0.4 and 1.1 shares of Exelis and Xylem, respectively, held in the ITT Corporation Retirement Savings Plan for Salaried Employees and ITT Hourly Savings Plan.

Defined Benefit Plans

ITT sponsors numerous defined benefit pension plans.plans which have approximately 2,200 active participants, however, most of these plans have been closed to new participants for several years. As of December 31, 2010,2011, of our total projected benefit obligation, the U.S. Salaried RetirementITT Pension Plan (U.S. SRP)for Bargaining Unit Employees Seneca Falls represented 76%28%, the ITT Consolidated Hourly Pension Plan represented 26%, other U.S. plans represented 14%30% and international pension plans represented 10%16%. We fund the U.S. SRP as required by statutory regulationsThe domestic plans are generally for hourly employees with a flat dollar benefit formula based on years of service. Foreign plan benefits are primarily determined based on participant years of service, future compensation, and age at retirement or through discretionary contributions. In addition, we fund certain of our international pension plans in countries where funding is allowable and tax-effective.

The assumed discount rates reflect our expectation of the present value of expected future cash payments for benefits at

the measurement date. We base the discount rate assumption on current investment yields of high-quality fixed income securities during the retirement benefits maturity period. The discount rates were determined by considering an interest rate yield curve comprising high quality corporate bonds, with maturities between zero and thirty years. Annual benefit payments are then discounted to present value using this yield curve to develop a single-point discount rate matching the plan’s characteristics.

The rate of future compensation increase assumption for foreign plans reflects our long-term actual experience and future and near-term outlook.

The expected long-term rate of return on assets reflects the expected returns for each major asset class in which the plans invest, the weight of each asset class in the target mix, the correlations among asset classes and their expected volatilities. Our expected return on plan assets is estimated by evaluating both historical returns and estimates of future returns.returns based on our targeted asset allocation. Specifically, we analyze the plan’s actual historical annual return on assets, net of fees, over the past 15, 20 and 25 years; estimate future returns based on independent estimates of asset class returns;returns weighted by the targeted investment allocation.

Prior to the Distribution of Exelis and evaluate historical broad marketXylem, the Company’s U.S. postretirement plans participated in a master trust that invested in asset classes that historically generated asset returns overin excess of the expected long-term timeframes basedrate of return on ourplan assets. With the distribution of certain postretirement benefit plans and their respective plan assets to Exelis and Xylem, we developed a new targeted asset allocation range.that is expected to generate a lower level of returns on plan assets than were realized in the past. Based on this approach, our weighted average estimate of the long-term annual rate of return on assets for domestic pension plans is 9.0%beginning in 2012 will be reduced to 8%. For reference,postretirement plans that participated in the master trust distributed to Exelis, the chart below shows actual returns compared to the expected long-term returns for our actual geometric average annualpostretirement plans that were utilized in the calculation of the net periodic postretirement cost for each respective year.

For the recognition of net periodic postretirement cost, the calculation of the expected return on plan assets for domestic pension plans asis generally derived using a market-related value of December 31, 2010 was 8.8%, 10.1% and 10.3%, forplan assets based on average asset values at the past 15, 20, and 25 year periods, respectively.measurement date over the last five years. The use of fair value, rather than a market-related value, of plan assets could materially affect net periodic postretirement cost.

The table below provides the actual rate of return generated on plan assets during each of the years presented, as they compare to the expected long-term return utilized in calculating the net periodic benefit costs, as they pertain to our U.S. pension plans.

The assumed rate of future increases in the per capita cost of health care (the health care trend rate) is 7.8%7.3% for 2011,2012, decreasing ratably to 5.0% in 2019. Increasing the health care trend rates by one percent per year would have the effect of increasing the benefit obligation by $36$23 and the aggregate annual service and interest cost components by $3.$2. A decrease of one percent in the health care trend rate would reduce the benefit obligation by $30$19 and the aggregate annual service and interest cost components by $2.$1. To the extent that actual experience differs from these assumptions, the effect will be amortized over the average future service of the covered active employees.

The determination of the assumptions shown in the table above and the discussion of health care trend rates are based on the provisions of the applicable accounting pronouncements, the review of various market data and discussion with our actuaries. Changes in these assumptions could materially affect the financial position and results of operations.

Investment Policy

The investment strategy for managing worldwide postretirement benefit plan assets is to seek an optimal rate of return relative to an appropriate level of risk for each plan. Investment strategies vary by plan, depending on the specific characteristics of the plan, such as plan size and design, funded status, liability profile and legal requirements.

Substantially all of the postretirement benefit plan assets are attributable to the Company’s U.S. SRP, which are managed on a commingled basis in a master investment trust. With respect to the master investment trust, the Company allows itself broad discretion to invest tactically to respond to changing market conditions, while staying reasonably within the targeted asset allocation ranges prescribed by its investment guidelines. In making these asset allocation decisions, the Company takes into account recent and expected returns and volatility of returns for each asset class, the expected correlation of returns among the different investments, as well as anticipated funding and cash flows. To enhance returns and mitigate risk, the Company diversifies its investments by strategy, asset class, geography and sector. The Company engages a large number of managers to gain broad exposure

Prior to the markets, while generatingexcess-of-market returnsDistribution, the domestic postretirement benefit plan assets were included in the master investment trust that also included assets of plans contributed to Exelis and mitigating manager-concentration risk.

Xylem. At the distribution date, the master trust and all of its investments were transferred to Exelis and ITT received a cash contribution from Exelis proportionate to its share of investments in the master trust which was subsequently invested through a newly established master trust. At December 31, 2011, the plan assets have been invested on a temporary basis. As a result of these developments, the actual asset allocation, targeted asset allocation and mix of investments in the master trust has changed from the prior year.

The strategies and allocations of plan assets outside of the U.S. are managed locally and may differ significantly from those in the U.S. In general and as of December 31, 2010,2011, non-U.S. plansplan assets of approximately $2 million are managed closely to their strategic allocations.

Fair Value of Plan Assets

In measuring plan assets at fair value, a fair value hierarchy is applied which categorizes and prioritizes the inputs used to estimate fair value into three levels. The fair value hierarchy is based on maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Classification within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:

 n

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 n

Level 2 inputs are other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices (in non-active markets or in active markets for similar assets or liabilities), inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 n

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities.

In certain instances, fair value is estimated using quoted market prices obtained from external pricing services. In obtaining such data from the pricing service, the Company has evaluated the methodologies used to develop the estimate of fair value in order to assess whether such valuations are representative of fair value, including net asset value (NAV). Additionally, in certain circumstances, the Company may adjust NAV reported by an asset manager when sufficient evidence indicates NAV is not representative of fair value.

ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used to measure fair value for major categories of investments.

 n

Equity securities – Equities (including common and preferred shares, domestic listed and foreign listed, closed end mutual funds and exchange traded funds) are generally valued at the closing price reported on the major market on which the individual securities are traded at the measurement date. As all equity securities held by the Company are publicly traded in active markets, the securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

 n

Open ended mutual funds, collective trusts and commingled funds – Open ended mutual funds, collective trusts and commingled funds are measured at NAV. These funds are generally classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

 n

Private equity – The valuation of limited partnership interests in private equity funds may require significant management judgment. The NAV reported by the asset manager is adjusted when management determines that NAV is not representative of fair value. In making such an assessment, a variety of factors are reviewed by management, including, but not limited to, the timeliness of NAV as reported by the asset manager and changes in general economic and market conditions subsequent to the last NAV reported by the asset manager. These funds are generally classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

 n

Absolute return (hedge funds) – The valuation of limited partnership interests in hedge funds may require significant management judgment. The NAV reported by the asset manager is adjusted when management determines that NAV is not representative of fair value. In making such an assessment, a variety of factors are

reviewed by management, including, but not limited to, the timeliness of NAV as reported by the asset manager and changes in general economic and market conditions subsequent to the last NAV reported by the asset manager. Depending on how quickly ITT can redeem these investments and the extent of any adjustments to NAV, hedge funds are classified within either Level 2 (redeemable within 90 days) or Level 3 (redeemable beyond 90 days) of the fair value hierarchy.

 n

Fixed income – U.S. government securities are generally valued using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics. Corporate bonds and notes are generally valued by using pricing models (e.g. discounted cash flows), quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or broker quotes. Fixed income securities are generally classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Other employee benefit plan assets include an investment in a structured security valued using broker quotes. Due to the significance of unobservable inputs involved in the broker quote, the investment is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Contributions

Funding requirements under Internal Revenue ServiceIRS rules are a major consideration in making contributions to our post-retirement plans. With respect to qualified pension plans, we intend to contribute annually not less than the minimum required by applicable law and regulations. In addition, we fund certain of our international pension plans in countries where funding is allowable and tax-efficient. We made contributions of $76$21 and $161$5 to pension plans during 20102011 and 2009, respectively, including voluntary contributions to the U.S. SRP of $50 and $100 during the fourth quarter of 2010, and 2009, respectively. We currently anticipate making contributions to our global pension plans in the range of $90$20 to $110$25 during 2011,2012, of which $20 is expected to be$2 has been made in the first quarter.

NOTE 1718 Long-Term Incentive Employee Compensation

NOTE 18

Long-Term Incentive Employee Compensation

Our long-term incentive awards program compriseshistorically has comprised three components: non-qualified stock options (NQOs), restricted stockshares and units (RS) and a target cash award (TSR). We account for NQOs and RS as equity-based compensation awards. TSR awards are cash settled and accounted for as liability-based compensation.

The ITT Amended and Restated 2003 Equity2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (2003 Equity(2011 Incentive Plan) was approved by shareholders and established in May of 20032011 to provide for the awarding of options on common shares and full value restricted common shares or units to employees and non-employee directors. The number of shares initially available for issuance to participants under the 2011 Incentive Plan was 4.6. The 2011 Incentive Plan replaced the 2003 Incentive Plan on a prospective basis and no future grants will be made under the ITT Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (2003 Incentive Plan). However, any shares remaining available for issuance under the 2003 Incentive Plan as of the date of 2011 Incentive Plan shareholder approval became available for grant under the 2011 Incentive Plan. In connection with the Distribution, and per the terms of the 2011 Incentive Plan, an equitable adjustment which preserved the intrinsic value of the awards under this planafter giving effect to the distribution of Exelis and Xylem was 12.2.made (referred to as the Equitable Adjustment). As of December 31, 2010, 2.92011, 41.1 shares were available for future grants.grants under the 2011 Incentive Plan. ITT makes shares available for the exercise of stock options or vesting of restricted shares or units by purchasing shares in the open market or by issuing shares from treasury stock.

The 2003 Equity Incentive Plan replaced the 2002 ITT Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors, the ITT 1996 Restricted Stock Plan for Non-Employee Directors and the 1994 ITT Incentive Stock Plan on a prospective basis. All outstanding awards granted under these prior plans are vested and exercisable. No future grants will be made under these prior plans.

Long-term incentive employee compensation costs are primarily recorded within SG&Ageneral and administrative expenses, and are reduced by an estimated forfeiture rate. These costs impacted our consolidated results of operations as follows:

Conversion and Cancellation of Outstanding Equity at Spin Date

In connection with the Distribution, ITT modified its outstanding equity awards on October 31, 2011 (the modification date). For equity awards issued through employee compensation arrangements, the awards were generally modified such that, following the Distribution, the employee only held equity in their future employer and the intrinsic value of the awards was preserved through the Equitable Adjustment. Awards held by members of the Board of Directors were modified so that the awardee continued to hold an award in each of the three companies following the Distribution.

As a result of the Equitable Adjustment, an option modification expense of $9 was recorded for awards that were fully vested on the modification date, and an addition $1 of incremental fair value will be recorded in future periods as unvested awards vest. A portion of the option modification charge was allocated to discontinued operations for employees who transferred to Exelis or Xylem. Further, subsequent to the Distribution, ITT will only recognize compensation cost for awards that were unvested on the modification date for employees who remained with ITT.

Pursuant to the completion of the Distribution on October 31, 2011, 1.2 stock options and 0.5 restricted equity awards held by the employees of Exelis and Xylem were converted to equity awards in the underlying common stock of their respective employer and were cancelled as ITT equity awards.

Non-Qualified Stock Options

Options generally vest over or at the conclusion of a three-year period and are exercisable in seven or ten-year periods, except in certain instances of death, retirement or disability. Options granted between 2004 and 2009 were awarded with a contractual term of seven years. Options granted prior to 2004 and during 2010 and 2011 were awarded with a contractual term of ten years. The exercise price per share is the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date each option is granted.

Expected volatilities arefor option grants prior to the Distribution were based on ITT’s stock price history, including implied volatilities from traded options on our stock. Expected volatilities for option grants subsequent to the Distribution were based on a peer average of historical and implied volatility. ITT uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination behavior within the valuation model. Employee groups and option characteristics are considered separately for valuation purposes. The expected life represents an estimate of the period of time options are expected to remain outstanding. The expected life provided above represents the weighted average of expected behavior for certain groups of employees who have historically exhibited different behavior. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of option grant.

Restricted Stock

Restricted stock

RS typically vests three years from the date of grant. Holders of restricted stockshares have the right to receive dividends and vote on the shares. Holders of restricted units have the right to receive cumulative dividends, which are subject to forfeiture, at the vesting date. If an employee leaves the Company prior to vesting, whether through resignation or termination for cause, the restricted stockRS is forfeited. If an employee retires or is terminated other than for cause, a pro rata portion of the restricted stockRS may vest. Included within restricted stock outstanding are 0.20.1 vested shares that have been deferred until termination of service per individual award agreements. As of December 31, 2010,2011, the total number of restricted stockRS expected to vest was 1.4.1.3.

Total Shareholder Return Awards

The TSR award plan is a performance-based cash award incentive program provided to key employees of ITT. TSR awards are accounted for under stock-compensation principles of accounting as liability-based awards. The fair value of outstanding awards is determined at the conclusion of the three-year performance period by measuring ITT’s total shareholder return percentage against the total shareholder return performance of other stocks generally comprising the S&P Industrials Index. The number of companies included in the applicable benchmark group range from 312 to 365 as of December 31, 2010. We reassess the fair value of our TSR awards on a quarterly basis at the end of each reporting period using actual total shareholder return data over the elapsed performance period as well as a Monte Carlo simulation. The fair value of the outstanding awards at December 31, 2010 and 2009 was $2 and $27, respectively.

Payment, if any, typically occurs during the first quarter of each year and is based on the TSR performance comparison measured against targets established at the time of the award. The total cash paidHowever, no payments were made during 2011 as the TSR performance metric for the 2008 to 2010 performance period was less than the minimum stipulated in the TSR Award Agreement. During 2010 and 2009, payments totaling $18 and $21 were made to settle the vested 2007 and 2006 TSR liabilityawards, respectively.

In connection with the Distribution, a proportionate number of outstanding TSR awards vested corresponding to the percentage of time passed between original grant date and

October 31, 2011 (the vested portion). The fair value of the vested portion on October 31, 2011 was $18, $21nil, as the performance factor for each TSR grant was below the floor threshold. The unvested portion of TSR awards (the percent of time remaining between October 31, 2011 and $19, during the years endedawards originally stated vest end date) were modified depending on the year of grant. The 2009 TSR awards were modified to settle via a cash payment in December 2011 of less than $1, equal to the unvested portion at target payout of 100%. The unvested portion of the 2010 2009 and 2008, respectively. At December 31, 2010, total unrecognized2011 TSR awards were modified through the granting of RSU awards with a grant date fair value equal to the unvested portion at target.

Some of these proceedings allege damages relating to asbestos liabilities, environmental liabilities, intellectual property matters, copyright infringement, personal injury claims, employment and pension matters government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes, sometimes related to acquisitions or divestitures. We will continue to defend vigorously against all claims. Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information including our

assessment of the merits of the particular claim, as well as our current reserves and insurance coverage, we do not expect that such legal proceedings will have any material adverse impact on our cash flow, results of operations, or financial conditionposition on a consolidated basis, in the foreseeable future, unless otherwise noted below.

Asbestos Matters

Background

Background

ITT, including its subsidiary Goulds Pumps, Inc. (Goulds), has been joined as a defendant with numerous other companies in product liability lawsuits alleging personal injury due to asbestos exposure. These claims allege that certain products sold by us or our subsidiaries prior to 1985 contained a part manufactured by a third party (e.g., a gasket) which contained asbestos. To the extent these third-party parts may have contained asbestos, it was encapsulated in the gasket (or other) material and was non-friable. In certain other cases, it is alleged that former ITT companies were distributors for other manufacturers’ products that may have contained asbestos.

As of December 31, 2010,2011, there were 103,575105,486 open claims against ITT filed in various state and federal courts alleging injury as a result of exposure to asbestos.Activityasbestos. Activity related to these asserted asbestos claims during the period was as follows:

(a)
(a) We had previously indicated thatExcludes 34,869 claims related to maritime actions, almost all of which were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, were not included in the count of asserted claims because the Company believed they would not be litigated. In August 2010, these cases were dismissed.

(b)In September 2010, ITT executed an amended cost-sharing agreement related to a business we disposed of a number of years ago. The amendedcost sharing agreement provides that responsibility for a sharing of costs associated with claims resolved gradually transitions away from ITT, such that ITT will have no responsibility for claims resolved between 2010 and 2019 naming ITT or the entity which acquired the disposed business. Excluded from thebeginning no later than July 1, 2022. The table above isexcludes claim activity associated with the amended cost-sharing agreement for claims that were not filed against ITT.

(c)Reflects an adjustment to increase the number of open claims as a result of transitioning claims data from our primary insurance companiescarriers to an internal database.a third party claims administrator.

At December 31, 2011, the jurisdictions with highest pending claims counts against ITT include Mississippi (approximately 40,000 claims), New York (approximately 30,000 claims), and Florida (approximately 7,000 claims).

Frequently, plaintiffs are unable to identify any ITT or Goulds Pumps product as a source of asbestos exposure. In

addition, in a large majority of the 103,575claims pending claims against the Company, the plaintiffs are unable to demonstrate any injury. Many of those claims have been placed on inactive dockets (including 39,98539,604 claims in Mississippi). Our experience to date

85


ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
is that a substantial portion of resolved claims have been dismissed without payment by the Company. As a result, management believes that a large majority of the 103,575 openpending claims have little or no value. The average cost per claim, including indemnity and defense costs, resolved in 2011 and 2010 and 2009 was $16$19 thousand and $12$7 thousand, respectively. Because claims are sometimes dismissed in large groups, the average cost per resolved claim as well as the number of open claims can fluctuate significantly from period to period.
Beginning in the third quarter of 2009, the

The Company recordedrecords an undiscounted asbestos liability, including legal fees, for costs that the Company is estimated to incur to resolve all pending claims, as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. PriorThe asbestos liability has not been discounted to present value due to the third quarterinability to reliably forecast the timing of 2009, we only recognized a liability for pending claims. While it was probable that we would incur additional costs for future claims to be filed against the Company, a liability for potential future claims was not reasonably estimable at that time due to a number of factors. To begin with, our primary insurance carriers managed and paid all settlement and legal costs directly. This was compounded by the fact that, as part of their claims administration processes, the insurance companies maintained limited claims information and insufficient detail critical to estimate a potential liability for future claims, such as disease type. Lastly, the insurers restricted our access to claim filings and related information.

Over the past several years, we have negotiatedcoverage-in-place agreements with several of our insurers under which we have assumed responsibility for administering the asbestos claims. Since taking over the claims administration process, we have, over time, gained considerable knowledge of the claims. In addition, at the end of 2008 we engaged an outside consultant to construct a comprehensive database of claims filed against the Company. With the completion of this work in early third quarter of 2009, we were able to develop and analyze key data, such as settlements and dismissals by disease type, necessary to estimate our exposure to potential future asbestos claims. In the third quarter of 2009 and 2010, we engaged a leading consultant of asbestos-related professional services to assist us in estimating our asbestos liability for both pending and unasserted claims. This firm reviewed information provided by the Company concerning claims filed, settled and dismissed, amounts paid in settlements, and relevant claim information such as the nature of the asbestos-related disease asserted by the claimant and the time lag from filing to disposition of claims.
cash flows. The methodology used to estimate our total liability for pending and unasserted future asbestos claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years relies on and includes the following key factors:
following:

 n

interpretation of a widely accepted forecast of the population likely to have been occupationally exposed to asbestos;

 n

widely accepted epidemiological studies estimating the number of people likely to develop mesothelioma and lung cancer from exposure to asbestos;

 n

the Company’s historical experience with the filing of non-malignant claims against it and the historical relationship between non-malignant and malignant claims filed against the Company;

 n

analysis of the number of likely asbestos personal injury claims to be filed against the Company based on such epidemiological and historical data and the Company’s most recent claims experience history;experience;

 nan

analysis of the Company’s pending cases, by disease type;

 nan

analysis of the Company’s most recent historyexperience to determine the average settlement and resolution value of claims, by disease type;

 nan

analysis of the Company’s defense costs in relation to its settlementindemnity costs and resolved claims;

 nan

adjustment for inflation in the future average settlement value of claims and defense costs; and

 nan

analysis of the time over whichCompany’s recent experience with regard to the Company is likelylength of time to resolve asbestos claims.

The forecast period used to estimate our potential exposure to pending and projected asbestos claims is a

judgment based on a number of factors, including the number and type of claims filed, recent experience with pending claims activity and whether that experience will continue into the future, the jurisdictions where claims are filed, the effect of any legislative or judicial developments, and the likelihood of any comprehensive asbestos legislation at the federal level. These factors have both positive and negative effects on the dynamics of asbestos litigation in the tort system and, accordingly, our estimate of the asbestos exposure. Developments related to asbestos tend to be long-cycle, changing over multi-year periods. Accordingly, we monitor these and other factors and periodically assess whether an alternative forecast period is appropriate.

The Company retains a consulting firm to assist management in estimating the potential liability for pending asbestos claims and for claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years based on the methodology described above. Our methodology determines a point estimate based on our assessment of the value of each underlying assumption, rather than a range of reasonably possible outcomes. Projecting future asbestos costs is subject to numerous variables and uncertainties that are inherently difficult to predict. In addition to the uncertainties surrounding the key factorsassumptions discussed above, other factors includeadditional uncertainty related to asbestos claims and estimated costs arises from the long latency period prior to the manifestation of thean asbestos-related disease, changes in available medical treatments and changes in medical costs, of medical treatment, the impact ofchanges in plaintiff behavior resulting from bankruptcies of other companies that are potential or co-defendants, uncertainties surrounding the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, and the impact of potential legislative or judicial changes. Furthermore, any predictions with respect to the variables impacting the estimate of the asbestos liability are subject to even greater uncertainty as the projection period lengthens. In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company’s total asbestos liability, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next

ITT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
10 years, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating those costs at this time.
We record ana corresponding asbestos-related asset that represents our best estimate of probable recoveries from insurers and other responsible parties for the estimated asbestos liabilities. In developing this estimate, the Company considerscoverage-in-place and other settlement agreements with its insurers and contractual agreements with other responsible parties, as well as a number of additional factors. These additional factors reviewed include current levels of future cost recovery, experience, the financial viability of the insurance companies or other responsible parties, the method by which losses will be allocated to the various insurance policies and the years covered by those policies, the extent to which settlement and defense costs will be reimbursed by the insurance policies, and interpretation of the various policy and contract terms and limits and their interrelationships. The timing and amount of reimbursements will vary due to the lag between when ITT pays an amount to defend or settle a claim and when a reimbursement is received, differing policy terms, and certain gaps in our insurance coverage as a result of some uninsured periods,

insurer insolvencies.insolvencies, and prior insurance settlements. In addition, the Company retains an insurance consulting firm to assist management in estimating probable recoveries for pending asbestos claims and for claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years based on the analysis of policy terms, the likelihood of recovery provided by ourexternal legal counsel assuming the continued viability of those insurance carriers and other responsible parties whichthat are currently solvent, and incorporating risk mitigation judgments where policy terms or other factors wereare not certain.

As partcertain, and allocating asbestos settlement and defense costs between our insurers and other responsible parties.

The Company has negotiated with certain of its insurers and other responsible parties to reimburse the Company for a portion of its settlement and/or defense costs as incurred through “coverage-in-place” agreements, policy buyout and settlement agreements and a cost sharing agreement which provides that responsibility for costs associated with claims resolved gradually transitions away from ITT, such that ITT will have no responsibility for claims resolved beginning no later than July 1, 2022. These agreements, in the aggregate, represent approximately 60% of the recorded asbestos-related asset.

Estimating our ongoing reviewexposure to pending asbestos claims and those that may be filed in the future is subject to significant uncertainty and risk as there are multiple variables that can affect the timing, severity, quality, quantity and resolution of our net asbestos exposure, each quarter we assess the most recent data available for the key inputs and assumptions, comparing the dataclaims. Any predictions with respect to the expectations on whichvariables impacting the most recent annualestimate of the asbestos liability and related asset estimates were based. are subject to even greater uncertainty as the projection period lengthens. In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company’s asbestos exposures, although it is probable that the Company will incur additional costs for asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years which could be material, we do not believe there is a reasonable basis for estimating those costs at this time.

Income Statement Charges

In the third quarter, each year, we conduct a detailed study with the assistance of outside consultants to review and update, as appropriate, the underlying assumptions used to estimate our asbestos liability and related assets. Additionally, we periodically reassess the time horizon over which a reasonable estimate of unasserted claims can be projected.

2010 Charge
In the third quarter of 2010, we conducted ouran annual detailed study with the assistance of outside consultants to review and update the underlying assumptions used in our asbestos liability and

related asset estimates. During this study, the underlying assumptions wereare updated based on our actual experience since our last detailed review in the third quarter of 2009,annual study, a reassessment of the appropriate reference period of years of experience used in determining each assumption and our expectations regarding future conditions, including inflation. Based on the results of this study, we increasedadjusted our estimated undiscounted asbestos liability, including legal fees, by ($44), $691 reflectingand $708, in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively. These charges reflect costs that the Company is estimated to incur to resolve all pending claims, as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years. The increase in our estimated liability isin the third quarter of 2011 was a result of several developments, including a reduction in the assumed rate of increase in future average settlement costs and an expectation of lower defense costs relative to indemnities paid. These favorable factors were offset in part by increased activity in several higher-cost jurisdictions, increasing the number of cases expected to be adjudicated. The increase in our estimated liability in the third quarter of 2010 was a result of several developments, including higher settlement costs and significantly increased activity in several higher-cost jurisdictions, increasing the number of cases to be adjudicated and the expected legal costs.

The increase in our estimated liability in the third quarter of 2009 was a result of recording an estimated liability to claims estimated to be filed. Prior to 2009, the Company only recorded a liability for pending asbestos claims due to the inability to estimate the potential exposure.

Further, in the third quarter of 2010,2011 the Company recorded a $372 increase$76 reduction in its asbestos-related assets based on the results of this study.the annual studies, whereas in the third quarter 2010 and 2009 the Company increased its asbestos-related asset by $371 and $485, respectively. These assets comprise an insurance asset, as well as receivables from other responsible parties. See discontinued operations discussion below for further information about receivables from parties other than insurers.

In addition to charges associated with the annual reassessment, beginning in the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company also records a net asbestos charge each quarter to maintain a rolling 10 year forecast period.

The asbestos liability and related receivables are based upon current, known information.management’s best estimate of future events. However, future events affecting the key factors and other variables for either the asbestos liability or the related receivables could cause the actual costs and recoveries to be materially higher or lower than currently estimated. Due to these uncertainties, as well as our inability to reasonably estimate any additional asbestos liability for claims which may be filed beyond the next 10 years, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of the cost of resolving theall pending and allestimated unasserted asbestos claims. We believe it is possible that future events affecting the key factors and other variables within the next 10 years, as well as the cost of asbestos claims filed beyond the next 10 years, net of expected recoveries, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations orand cash flows.

Discontinued Operations:

At December 31, 2011 and 2010, $234 and 2009, $292 and $75 of the asbestos liability and $285$233 and $64$285 of the related asset, respectively, related to a business which we disposed of a number of years ago that is reported as a discontinued operation. The increase in the liability and asset resulted fromis subject to an amended cost-sharing agreement that was executed in September 2010 with the entity that acquired the disposed business. The amended agreement providedprovides for a sharing of the claims settled between 2010 and 2019 naming ITT or the entity which acquired the disposed business. In future years, the liability for sharing the claims gradually transitions away from ITT, such that ITT will have no responsibility for claims resolved in 9 to 10 years. Under the prior cost-sharing agreement, costs were shared equally.beginning no later than July 1, 2022. The amended cost-sharing agreement also provides for the sharing of certain insurance policies. Prior to executing the amended cost-sharing agreement in September 2010, we recorded a liability for this discontinued operation based on pending claims and unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years against ITT. As part of amending the cost-sharing agreement, ITT was provided with the key data necessary to estimate the exposure related to the shared pending and estimated future claims. The estimate of the additional liability and asset recorded as a result of the amended cost-sharing agreement werein 2010 was calculated in a manner consistent with the approach used to estimate ITT’s stand-alone asbestos liabilities and assets.

Future Cash Flows:

We

Using the estimated liability as of December 31, 2011 (for claims filed or estimated to be filed through 2021), we have estimated that we will be able to recover 62%57% of the asbestos settlementindemnity and defense costs for pending claims as well as unasserted claims estimated to be filed over the next 10 years from our insurers or other responsible parties. However, there is uncertainty in estimating when cash payments related to the

recorded asbestos liability will be fully expended and such cash payments will continue for a number of years past 2021 due to the significant proportion of future claims included in the estimated asbestos liability and the lag time between the date a claim is filed and when it is resolved. In addition, because there are gaps in our insurance coverage, reflecting uninsured periods, the insolvency of certain insurers and prior insurance settlements, and we expectour expectation that certain policies from some of our primary insurers will exhaust within the next 10 years, actual insurance reimbursements vary from period to period and the anticipated recovery percentagerate is expected to decline for potential additional asbestos liabilities. Insurance coverage in the tenth year of our estimate of the asbestos claims liability is currently projected to be approximately 25%.over time. Future recoverability rates may also be impacted by other factors, such as future insurance settlements, insolvencies and judicial determinations relevant to our coverage program, which are difficult to predict. predict and subject to a high degree of uncertainty.

Subject to the qualifications regardingthese inherent uncertainties, previously described, it is expected that future annual cash payments, net of recoveries related to pending claims and unasserted claims to be filed within the next 10 years, will extend through approximately 20222026 due to the length of time lag between the filing of a claim and its

resolution. Certain of our primary coverage in place agreements are expected to exhaust in the next twelve months, which will result in higher net cash outflows for the short-term. These annual net cash outflows are projected to average $25$10 to $20, net of tax benefits over the next five years, as compared to an average of approximately $10 to $15$6, net of tax benefits in the past three years, and increase to an average of approximately $50$35 to $60$45, net of tax over the remainder of the projection period.
Recovery rates for the tenth year of our model are currently projected to be approximately 27% of cash spent on settlements and defense costs.

Environmental

In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations. We are responsible, or are alleged to be responsible, for ongoing environmental investigation and remediation of sites in various countries. These sites are in various stages of investigationand/or remediation and in many of these proceedings our liability is considered de minimis. We have received notification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and from similar state and foreign environmental agencies, that a number of sites formerly or currently ownedand/or operated by ITT, and other properties or water supplies that may be or have been impacted from those operations, contain disposed or recycled materials or wastes and require environmental investigationand/or remediation. These sites include instances where we have been identified as a potentially responsible party under federal and state environmental laws and regulations.

It is difficultsubject to numerous inherent uncertainties that affect our ability to estimate our share of the final costs of investigation and remediation due to various factors, includingcosts. Such uncertainties involve incomplete information regarding particular sites and other potentially responsible parties, uncertainty regarding the nature and extent of investigation orcontamination at each site, the extent of remediation andrequired under existing regulations, our share, if any, of any remediation liability, for such conditions, the selection ofwidely varying cost estimates associated with potential alternative remedial approaches, the length of time required to remediate a particular site, the potential effects of continuing improvements in remediation technology, and changes in environmental standards and regulatory requirements. In our opinion, the total amount accrued is appropriate based on existing facts and circumstances. We do not anticipate these liabilities will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Other Matters

The Company is involved in coverage litigation with various insurers seeking recovery of costs incurred in connection with certain environmental and product liabilities. In a suit filed in 1991, ITT Corporation, et al. v. Pacific Indemnity Corporation et al, Sup. Ct., Los Angeles County, we are seeking recovery of costs related to environmental losses. Discovery, procedural matters, changes in California law, and various appeals have prolonged this case. For several years, the case was on appeal before the California Court of Appeals from a decision by the California Superior Court dismissing certain claims made by ITT. The caseIn 2011, ITT filed a Motion for Summary Judgment on PEIC’s obligation to pay defense costs. That motion is now backcurrently pending before the Superior Court and the partiescourt. Mandatory settlement conferences are engaged in further discovery.

On February 13, 2003, we commenced an action, Cannon Electric, Inc. v. Affiliated FM Ins. Co., Sup. Ct., Los Angeles County, seeking recovery of costs related to asbestos product liability losses described above. During this coverage litigation, we entered intocoverage-in-place settlement agreements with ACE, Wausau and Utica Mutual dated April 2004, September 2004, and February 2007, respectively. These agreements provide specific coverage for the Company’s legacy asbestos liabilities. In December 2011, Goulds Pumps reached an agreement in principle to resolve its claims against Fireman’s Fund and, in January 2012, we reached an agreement in principle with another insurer. In early January 2012, ITT and Goulds Pumps filed a putative class action against Travelers Casualty and Surety Company alleging that Travelers is unilaterally reinterpreting language contained in older Aetna policies so as to avoid paying on asbestos claims.ITT Corporation and Goulds Pumps, Inc., v. Travelers Casualty and Surety Company (f/k/a Aetna Casualty and Surety Company,) U.S.D.C. CT. CA No. 3:12-CU 00038. We continue to negotiate settlement agreements with other insurers, where appropriate.

On December 20, 2011, the Ad Hoc Committee of ITT Bondholders filed a Complaint in New York State court alleging that ITT breached the early redemption provisions of certain bonds issued in 2009. In 2009, ITT issued $500 in bonds maturing in 2019 at an interest rate of 6.125%. The documents governing the bonds contained certain provisions governing early redemptions. On September 20, 2011, ITT notified the holders of the debt that it intended to redeem the bonds on October 20, 2011 in accordance with the terms of the governing documents. On October 18, 2011, the redemption price was disclosed. The Plaintiffs contend that ITT used an improper discount rate in calculating the redemption price and otherwise failed to comply with required redemption procedures.

past several years, the majority of the silica cases involving PGS have been dismissed without payment. Currently there are approximately 3,000 cases pending against PGS. The Company expects that the majority of the remaining cases

associated with this matter, if any, will also be dismissed. In addition, USS is currently filing insurance claims directly with our insurer, and that insurer has been paying the claims. We will continue to seek past defense costs for these cases from our insurers. We believe that these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. All silica-related costs, net of expected insurance recoveries, are shared with certain previously wholly-owned subsidiaries.

On March 27, 2007, we reached a settlement relating to an investigation of our ITT Night Vision Division’s complianceExelis and Xylem in accordance with the International TrafficDistribution Agreement. See Note 4, “Discontinued Operations,” for further information about the Distribution Agreement and shared liabilities.

We were assessed a total of $50 in fines, forfeitures and penalties. We also entered into a Deferred Prosecution Agreement with the U.S. Government which deferred action regarding a third count of violations related to ITAR pending our implementation of a remedial action plan, including the appointment of an independent monitor. We were also assessed a deferred prosecution monetary penalty of $50 which is being reduced for monies spent, during the five-year period following the date of the Plea Agreement, to accelerate and further the development and fielding of advanced night vision technology.claim. Management believes that these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Warranties

NOTE 2021

Guarantees, Indemnities and Warranties

Indemnities

As part of the Distribution, ITT provided certain indemnifications and cross-indemnifications among ITT, Exelis and Xylem, subject to limited exceptions with respect to certain employee claims. The indemnifications address a variety of subjects, including asserted and unasserted product liability matters (e.g., asbestos claims, product warranties) which relate to products manufactured, repaired and/or sold prior to the Distribution Date. The indemnifications are indefinite. The indemnification associated with pending and future asbestos claims does not expire. In addition, ITT, Exelis and Xylem agreed to certain cross-indemnifications with respect to other liabilities and obligations. ITT expects Exelis and Xylem to fully perform under the terms of the Distribution Agreement and therefore has not recorded a liability for matters for which we have been indemnified. In addition, we are not aware of any claims or other circumstances that would give rise to material payments to Xylem or Exelis under the indemnity provided by ITT.

Since ITT’s incorporation in 1920, we have acquired and disposed of numerous entities. The related acquisition and disposition agreements contain various representation and warranty clauses and may provide indemnities for a misrepresentation or breach of the representations and warranties by either party. The indemnities address a variety of subjects; the term and monetary amounts of each such indemnity are defined in the specific agreements and may be affected by various conditions and external factors. Many of the indemnities have expired either by operation of law or as a result of the terms of the agreement. We do not have a liability recorded for these indemnifications and are not aware of any claims or other information that would give rise to material payments under such indemnities.

Guarantees

We have a number$192 of guarantees, letters of credit and similar arrangements outstanding at December 31, 2010, the substantial majority of which pertain2011 primarily pertaining to ourcommercial or performance under long-term sales contracts.guarantees and insurance matters. We didhave not haverecorded any recorded loss contingencies under these performance guarantees, letters of credit and similar arrangements as of December 31, 2010 and 20092011 as the likelihood of ITT nonperformance by ITT or ITT’s subsidiaries is considered remote. We also haveFrom time to time, we may provide certain third-party guarantees that may be affected by various conditions and external factors, some of which could require that payments be made under such guarantees. We do not consider the maximum exposure or current recorded liabilities under our third-party guarantees to be material either individually or in the aggregate. We do not believe such payments would have a material adverse impact on theour financial position, results of operations or cash flows on a consolidated basis.

In December 2007, we entered into a sale leaseback agreement for our corporate aircraft, with the aircraft leased to ITT under a five-year operating lease. We havelease and ITT provided a residual value guarantee to the lessor for the future value of the aircraft with a maximum paymentaircraft. During the second quarter of $42. At expiration of the lease, however, if the fair value of2011, we purchased the aircraft is less thanfrom the lessor for $50, payment under the price stated in the sale leaseback agreement, and as such the sale leaseback agreement and the associated residual value guarantee would be equal towere terminated. In connection with this transaction, we settled a previously recorded $22 residual value guarantee and recognized an additional charge of $3, presented within G&A expenses, as the difference betweenpurchase price exceeded the fair value of the aircraft at expirationthe date of termination of the leasesale leaseback agreement. One of the corporate aircraft was sold for a gain of $3 and $50, provided that such payment shall not exceed $42. Atthe other aircraft was distributed to Exelis, and accordingly, at December 31, 2010,2011, ITT no longer owned any corporate aircraft.

In December 2011, the projected fair valueFlagler County Board of Commissioners approved the termination of certain construction obligations associated with a 1984 Development Order for Development of Regional Impact (“DRI”) known as Hammock Dunes, Florida. On February 1, 2012, the Flagler County Board of Commissioners released ITT from further material obligations related to the DRI and cancelled the $10 bond issued in its favor by ITT to secure the construction obligations under the DRI. As a result of the aircraft at expiration ofapproval to terminate the lease is estimated to be $22 less thanconstruction obligation in December 2011, the guaranteed amount.

NOTE 23 Immaterial Corrections

NOTE 23

Immaterial Corrections

During the fourth quarter of 2011, management concluded the previously issued consolidated financial statements required adjustments to reflect certain immaterial corrections. Prior to the distribution of Exelis and Xylem, the Company had evaluated and concluded that the identified amounts were not material to any of its previously issued financial statements. Although management believes the amounts, individually and in the aggregate, were, and continue to be, immaterial to prior periods, management concluded that the prior period corrections to the post-Distribution financial statements are appropriate.

The Company has revised amounts previously reported in the consolidated financial statements to reflect certain adjustments, primarily related to income taxes, cumulative translation adjustments, and other adjustments, related to previously unrecorded immaterial adjustments identified during the preparation of prior years’ financial statements.
