1.Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017,2020, the related condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, the condensed consolidated statements of stockholders' equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019 of Flowserve Corporation are unaudited. In management’s opinion, all adjustments comprising normal recurring adjustments necessary for fair statement of such condensed consolidated financial statements have been made. Where applicable, prior period information has been updated to conform to current year presentation.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 20172020 ("Quarterly Report") are presented as permitted by Regulation S-X and do not contain certain information included in our annual financial statements and notes thereto. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A10-K for the year ended December 31, 20162019 ("20162019 Annual Report").
Revision to Previously Reported Financial Information As previously disclosed in- In conjunction with our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Qclose process for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017,third quarter of 2020, we identified accounting errors focused mainly at tworelated to the recognition of our non-U.S. sites ina liability for unasserted asbestos claims. The adjustments primarily related to an incurred but not reported ("IBNR") liability associated with unasserted asbestos claims, but also included adjustments related to the inventory, accounts receivable, costassociated receivables for expected insurance proceeds for asbestos settlement and defense costs from insurance coverage and the recognition as an expense the related legal fees that were previously estimated to be recoverable from insurance carriers for which coverage is not currently sufficient following the recognition of sales and selling, general and administrative balancesthe IBNR for prior periods beginning with the year ended December 31, 2014 through the firstsecond quarter of 2017. 2020 and to correct certain other previously identified immaterial errors.
We have assessed these errors, individually and in the aggregate, and concluded that they were not material to any prior annual or interim period. However, the aggregate amount of the prior period errors would have been material to facilitate comparisons among periodsour current interim condensed consolidated statements of income and to our anticipated full year results and therefore, we have revised our previously issued audited consolidated financial information which is included in our 2016 Annual Report and unaudited condensed consolidated financial information for the interim periods included in our Form 10-Q/A and Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively. We also corrected the timing of immaterial previously recorded out-of-period adjustments and reflected them in the revised prior period financial statements, where applicable. See Note 2 for more information.
Brazil Long-Lived Asset Impairment In the second quarter of 2017, due to continued capital spending declines in the Brazilian oil and gas market and economic and political circumstances, including the indictment of the former president, the decision was made to scale back certain of our operations in Brazil. As a result in the second quarter of 2017, we tested our related long-lived assets, which primarily consist of property, plant and equipment, for recoverability and recorded a $26.0 million impairment charge to selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") within our Engineered Product Division ("EPD") segment.
Venezuela – Our operations in Venezuela primarily consist of a service center that performs service and repair activities. Our Venezuelan subsidiary's sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 represented less than 0.5%2019. Prior periods not presented herein will be revised, as applicable, in future filings. See Note 2 for more information.
Coronavirus Pandemic ("COVID-19") and Oil and Gas Market - During the first nine months of consolidated sales2020, we have been challenged by macroeconomics and its assets at September 30, 2017 represented less than 0.5%global economic impacts based on the disruption and uncertainties caused by COVID-19 and the emanating impacts of total consolidated assets. Assets primarily consistedthe pandemic on pricing and dampened demand for oil, further resulting in instability and volatility in oil commodity prices. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has had widespread implications worldwide and has caused substantial economic uncertainty and challenging operational conditions. For example, in the first nine months of United States ("U.S.") dollar-denominated monetary assets2020, these conditions drove the announcement of significant and bolivar-denominated non-monetary assets at September 30, 2017. In addition, certainbroad-based decreases in customer planned capital spending. As a result, many of our operationslarge customers have announced double-digit capital expenditure budget decreases for the remainder of the year, resulting in other countries sell equipment and parts that are typically denominatedlower bookings in U.S. dollars directlythe first nine months of 2020 as compared to Venezuelan customers. In the third quarterprior year.
The preparation of 2016 we recorded a charge of $73.5 million to SG&A to fully reserve for those potentially uncollectible accounts receivable (classified as other assets, net on theour condensed consolidated balance sheet) and a charge to cost of sales ("COS") of $1.9 million to reserve for related net inventory exposures. We continue to pursue payments from our Venezuelan customer.
Valuation of Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets – As discussed in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included inrequires us to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our 2016 Annual Report,estimates, judgments and methodologies on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets, liabilities and equity and the amount of revenues and expenses. The full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic directly or indirectly impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition, including sales, expenses, our allowance for expected credit losses, stock based compensation, the carrying value of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible
other long-lived assets, is testedfinancial assets, and valuation allowances for impairmenttax assets, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including as a result of December 31 each yearnew information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain it or whenever events or circumstances indicate such assetstreat it, as well as the economic impact on local, regional, national and international customers, suppliers and markets. We have made estimates of the impact of COVID-19 within our financial statements and there may be impaired.
We did not record an impairment of goodwill in 2016, 2015 or 2014; however at December 31, 2016 the estimated fair value of our Engineered Product Operations ("EPO") and Industrial Product Division ("IPD") reporting units reduced significantly duechanges to broad-based capital spending declines and heightened pricing pressure experienced in the oil and gas markets which are anticipated to continuethose estimates in the near to mid-term. Although we concluded that there is no impairment on the goodwill associated with our EPO and IPD reporting unitsmid-term as of December 31, 2016, we will continue to closely monitor their performance and related market conditions for future indicators of potential impairment and reassess accordingly.
Accounting Policies
Significant accounting policies, for which no significant changes have occurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2017, are detailed in Note 1 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2016 Annual Report.

new information becomes available. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Accounting Developments
Pronouncements Implemented
In July 2015,June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-11, "Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory." The ASU updates represent changes to simplify the subsequent measurement of inventory. Previous to the issuance of this ASU, ASC 330 required that an entity measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The amendments of ASU 2015-11 updates that “market” requirement to “net realizable value,” which is defined by the ASU as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Our adoption of ASU No. 2015-11 effective January 1, 2017 did not have an impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting." The ASU affects the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions as it relates to accounting for income taxes, accounting for forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-09 as of January 1, 2017 using the modified retrospective approach. The adoption resulted in the recognition of approximately $1 million of tax expense in our provision of income taxes and an approximately $3 million one-time, cumulative adjustment to beginning retained earnings related to the change in our accounting policy for estimated forfeitures and share cancellations. In addition, in our statements of cash flows we reclassified cash outflows for employee taxes paid from operating to financing and elected to reclassify cash impacts due to excess tax deficiencies and benefits from financing to operating, which resulted in a net reclassification of approximately $10 million of cash flows used from operating to financing for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.
Pronouncements Not Yet Implemented
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)" which supersedes most of the revenue recognition requirements in "Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)." The standard is principle-based and provides a five-step model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when (or as) it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Companies are permitted to adopt the new standard using one of two transition methods. Under the full retrospective method, the requirements of the new standard are applied to contracts for each prior reporting period presented and the cumulative effect of applying the standard is recognized in the earliest period presented. Under the modified retrospective method, the requirements of the new standard are applied to contracts that are open as of January 1, 2018, the required date of adoption, and the cumulative effect of applying the standard is recognized as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings in that same year. The standard also includes significantly expanded disclosure requirements for revenue. Since 2014, the FASB has issued several updates to Topic 606.
We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU No. 2014-09 and all related ASU's on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. We plan to adopt the new revenue guidance effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method for transition, applying the guidance to those contracts which were not completed as of that date. In 2015, we established a cross-functional implementation team consisting of representatives from across all of our reportable segments to begin the process of analyzing the impact of the new standard on our contracts. We have determined the applicability of the key factors of the five step model and developed a framework of accounting policies and practices to meet the requirements of the of the new standard. The results of our evaluation indicate that one of the changes upon adoption may be potentially increased "over-time" ("percentage of completion") revenue recognition. Historically, revenue recognized under the percentage of completion method has been less than 5% to 7% of our consolidated sales. The adoption of the new standard could substantially increase this range depending on the terms and conditions of the contracts in our backlog at January 1, 2018 and future contracts. We also anticipate changes to the consolidated balance sheet related to accounts receivable, inventory, contract assets and contract liabilities. We expect to further our assessment on the financial impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations and to align our business processes, systems and controls to support compliance with the standard during the remainder of 2017. We will continue our evaluation of ASU 2014-09 as well as new or emerging interpretations of the standard through the date of adoption.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities." The ASU requires entities to measure equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The ASU also requires an entity to present separately in other comprehensive income the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. The requirement to disclose the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet has been eliminated by this ASU. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU No. 2016-01 on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”.  The ASU requires that organizations that lease assets recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by those leases.  The ASU will affect the presentation of lease related expenses on the income statement and statement of cash flows and will increase the required disclosures related to leases.  This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU No. 2016-02 on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.  Although we are continuing to evaluate, upon initial qualitative evaluation, we believe a key change upon adoption will be the balance sheet recognition of leased assets and liabilities. Based on our qualitative evaluation to date, we believe that any changes in income statement recognition will not be material.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments."Instruments" ("CECL"). The amendmentsASU requires, among other things, the use of a new current expected credit loss model in this ASU replace the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflectsorder to determine an allowance for expected credit losses with respect to financial assets and instruments held. The CECL model requires that we estimate the lifetime of an expected credit loss for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. On January 1, 2020, we adopted the ASU on a prospective basis to determine our allowance for credit losses in accordance with the requirements of Topic 326, and we modified our accounting policy and processes to facilitate this approach. As a result of the adoption of the ASU, we recorded a noncash cumulative effect after-tax adjustment to retained earnings of $7.3 million on our opening condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Our primary exposure to financial assets that are within the scope of CECL are trade receivables and contract assets. For these financial assets, we record an allowance for expected credit losses that, when deducted from the gross asset balance, presents the net amount expected to be collected. We estimate the allowance based on an aging schedule and according to historical losses as determined from our billings and collections history. Additionally, we adjust the allowance for factors that are specific to our customers’ credit risk such as financial difficulties, liquidity issues, insolvency, and country and political risk. We also consider both the current and forecasted direction of macroeconomic conditions at the reporting date. The CECL model requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable informationforecasts of future economic conditions in the estimate of expected credit losses.
We adjust the allowance and recognize adjustments in the income statement each period. Trade receivables are written off against the allowance in the period when the receivable is deemed to informbe uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are reflected as a reduction to credit loss estimates. This ASU is effectiveimpairment losses in the income statement.
Our allowance for fiscal years beginning afterexpected credit losses for short-term receivables as of September 30, 2020, was $76.1 million, compared to $53.4 million as of December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating31, 2019. The nine months of activity included $6.9 million for the impact of ASU No. 2016-13 on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments - A consensusadoption of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force.” The update was issuedCECL model at January 1, 2020 and $15.8 million for current period adjustments.
Our long-term receivables, included in other assets, net, represent receivables with collection periods longer than 12 months and the balance primarily consists of amounts to be collected from insurance companies and fully-reserved receivables associated with the objectivenational oil company in Venezuela. As of reducingSeptember 30, 2020, we had $108.2 million of long-term receivables, compared to $118.5 million as of December 31, 2019. Our allowance for expected credit losses for long-term receivables as of September 30, 2020 was $97.9 million, compared to $101.4 million as of December 31, 2019.
We have exposure to credit losses from off-balance sheet exposures, such as financial guarantees and standby letters of credit, where we believe the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statementrisk of cash flows under Topic 230 and other topics. This ASUloss is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoptionimmaterial to our financial statements as of ASU No. 2016-15 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, "Income Taxes (Topic 740) Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory." The ASU guidance requires the recognition of the income tax consequences of an intercompany asset transfer, other than transfers of inventory, when the transfer occurs. For intercompany transfers of inventory, the income tax effects will continue to be deferred until the inventory has been sold to a third party. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of ASU No. 2016-16 on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, "Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash." The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods with those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-18 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, "Business Combinations (Topic 805): "Clarifying the Definition of a Business." The ASU clarifies the definition of a business and provides guidance on evaluating as to whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition clarification as outlined in this ASU affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The amendments of the ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods. The adoption of ASU No. 2017-01 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.September 30, 2020.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment." The amendments in this ASU allow companies to apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The amendments of the ASU are effective for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. EarlyOur adoption of ASU No. 2017-04 effective January 1, 2020 did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement." The amendments of the ASU modify the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, modifying, or adding certain disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the statement of financial position or disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performedthe removed disclosures and delayed adoption until fiscal year 2020 permitted for the new disclosures. The removed and modified disclosures were adopted on testing dates aftera retrospective basis and the new disclosures were adopted on a prospective basis. Our adoption of ASU No. 2018-13 effective January 1, 2017.2020 did not have an impact on our disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract." The ASU addresses how entities should account for costs associated with implementing a cloud computing arrangement that is considered a service contract. Per the amendments of the ASU, implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract should be accounted for in the same manner as implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain software for internal use as prescribed by guidance in ASC 350-40. The ASU requires that implementation

Table of Contents
costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement be capitalized rather than expensed. Further, the ASU specifies the method for the amortization of costs incurred during implementation, and the manner in which the unamortized portion of these capitalized implementation costs should be evaluated for impairment. The ASU also provides guidance on how to present such implementation costs in the financial statements and also creates additional disclosure requirements. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The amendments in this ASU can be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption. Our adoption of ASU No. 2018-15 effective January 1, 2020 on a prospective basis did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17, "Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs")." The standard reduces the cost and complexity of financial reporting associated with VIEs. The new standard amends the guidance for determining whether a decision-making fee is a VIE.  The amendments require organizations to consider indirect interests held through related parties under common control on a proportional basis rather than as the equivalent of a direct interest in its entirety as currently required in U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). The amendments of this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Our adoption of ASU No. 2018-17 effective January 1, 2020 did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-18, "Collaborative Arrangements (Topic 808): Clarifying the Interaction Between Topic 808 and Topic 606." The ASU clarifies the interaction between the guidance for certain collaborative arrangements and ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," which we adopted January 1, 2018. The amendments of the ASU provide guidance on how to assess whether certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants should be accounted for within ASU No. 2014-09. The ASU also provides more comparability in the presentation of revenue for certain transactions between collaborative arrangement participants. Parts of the collaborative arrangement that are not in the purview of the revenue recognition standard should be presented separately. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Our adoption of ASU No. 2018-18 effective January 1, 2020 did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” The ASU intends to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes and removes certain exceptions to the general principles in the standard. Additionally, the ASU clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application of its requirements. We early adopted ASU No. 2019-12 effective January 1, 2020 on a prospective basis and the adoption did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, "Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans-General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans." The ASU amends the disclosure requirements by adding, clarifying, or removing certain disclosures for sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement plans. The amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020 and the amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented.

3.Dispositions
On July 6, 2017, we sold3.Revenue Recognition

The majority of our Flow Control Division's ("FCD") Vogt product linerevenues relate to customer orders that typically contain a single commitment of goods or services which have lead times under a year. Longer lead time, more complex contracts with our customers typically have multiple commitments of goods and related assetsservices, including any combination of designing, developing, manufacturing, modifying, installing and liabilities to a privately held company for $28.0 millioncommissioning of cash received at closing. The sale resulted in a pre-tax gain of $10.9 million recorded in gain on sale of business in the condensed consolidated statements of income. In 2016, net salesflow management equipment and providing services and parts related to the Vogtperformance of such products. Control transfers over time when the customer is able to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the benefits of our work as we perform.
Our primary method for recognizing revenue over time is the percentage of completion ("POC") method. Revenue from products and services transferred to customers over time accounted for approximately 23% and 21% of total revenue for the three month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 22% and 19% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. If control does not transfer over time, then control transfers at a point in time. We recognize revenue at a point in time at the level of each performance obligation based on the evaluation of certain indicators of control transfer, such as title transfer, risk of loss transfer, customer acceptance and physical possession. Revenue from products and services transferred to customers at a point in time accounted for approximately 77% and 79% of total revenue for the three month period ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 78% and 81% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Refer to Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2019 Annual Report for a more comprehensive discussion of our policies and accounting practices of revenue recognition.
Disaggregated Revenue
We conduct our operations through 2 business totaledsegments based on the type of product and how we manage the business:
Flowserve Pump Division ("FPD") for custom, highly-engineered pumps, pre-configured industrial pumps, pump systems, mechanical seals, auxiliary systems and replacement parts and related services; and
Flow Control Division ("FCD") for engineered and industrial valves, control valves, actuators and controls and related services.
Our revenue sources are derived from our original equipment manufacturing and our aftermarket sales and services. Our original equipment revenues are generally related to originally designed, manufactured, distributed and installed equipment that can range from pre-configured, short-cycle products to more customized, highly-engineered equipment ("Original Equipment"). Our aftermarket sales and services are derived from sales of replacement equipment, as well as maintenance, advanced diagnostic, repair and retrofitting services ("Aftermarket"). Each of our 2 business segments generate Original Equipment and Aftermarket revenues.

Contract Balances
We receive payment from customers based on a contractual billing schedule and specific performance requirements as established in our FCD's Gestra AG ("Gestra") businesscontracts. We record billings as accounts receivable when an unconditional right to a leading providerconsideration exists. A contract asset represents revenue recognized in advance of steam system solutions for $203.6 million (€178.3 million), which included $180.8 million (€158.3 million) of cash received at closing (net of divested cash and subsequent working capital adjustments). Additionally, we expectour right to receive $23.6 million (€20.0 million)payment under the terms of cash currently helda contract. A contract liability represents our right to receive payment in escrowadvance of revenue recognized for a contract.

4.Leases

We have operating and finance leases for certain manufacturing facilities, offices, service and quick response centers, machinery, equipment and automobiles. Our leases have remaining lease terms of up to 33 years. The terms and conditions of our leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease which are considered and included in the lease term when these options are reasonably certain of exercise.
We determine if a contract is (or contains) a lease at inception by evaluating whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset. For all classes of leased assets, we have elected the practical expedient to account for any non-lease components in the contract together with the related lease component in the same unit of account. For lease contracts containing more than one lease component, we allocate the contract consideration to each of the lease components on the basis of relative standalone prices in order to identify the lease payments for each lease component.
Right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recognized in our condensed consolidated balance sheets at the commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. Additionally, ROU assets include any lease payments made at or before the commencement date, as well as any initial direct costs incurred, and are reduced by any lease incentives received. As most of our operating leases do not provide an implicit rate, we apply our incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of remaining lease payments. Our incremental borrowing rate is determined based on information available at the commencement date of the lease.
Operating leases are included in operating lease ROU assets, net and operating lease liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property plant and equipment, debt due within one year and long-term debt due after one year in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
We have certain lease contracts with terms and conditions that provide for variability in the payment amount based on changes in facts or circumstances occurring after the commencement date. These variable lease payments are recognized in our condensed consolidated income statements as the obligation is incurred.
We have certain lease contracts where we provide a guarantee to the lessor that the value of an underlying asset will be at least a specified amount at the end of 2017, which wethe lease. Estimated amounts expected to be paid for residual value guarantees are included in operating lease liabilities and ROU assets, net.
We had $33.4 million and $34.7 million of legally binding minimum lease payments for operating leases signed but not yet commenced as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. We did not have classifiedmaterial subleases, leases that imposed significant restrictions or covenants, material related party leases or sale-leaseback arrangements.

We enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge our cash flow risks associated with transactions denominated in currencies other than the local currency of the operation engaging in the transaction.
During the second quarter of 2017, we discontinued our program to designate forward exchange contracts. The discontinuance of this program had no impact on our financial position as of September 30, 2017.

On September 22, 2020, as a means of managing the volatility of foreign currency exposure with the Euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate, we entered into a cross-currency swap ("Swap") associated with our Euro investment in certain of our international subsidiaries and was designated as a net investment hedge. We exclude the interest accruals on the swap from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and recognize the interest accruals in earnings within interest expense. For each reporting period, the change in the fair value of the swap attributable to changes in the spot rate and differences between the change in the fair value of the excluded components and the amounts recognized in earnings under the swap accrual process are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss on our consolidated balance sheet. As of September 30, 2020, the notional value of the Swap was €163.2 million and has an early termination date of September 2025.

Senior Credit Facility

As discussed in Note 10 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2016 Annual Report,On September 4, 2020, we amended our credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto ("Amended Credit Agreement") to provide greater flexibility in maintaining adequate liquidity in the event we have the need to access available borrowings under our Senior Credit Facility ("Credit Facility"). The Amended Credit Agreement provides for an initial $400.0$800.0 million term loan (“Term Loan Facility”) and a $1.0 billion revolvingunsecured senior credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Senior Credit Facility”) with a maturity date of October 14, 2020. OnJuly 16, 2024. The Credit Facility includes a $750.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $30.0 million sublimit for swing line loans.

8.Fair Value

7.Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models may be applied. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in our condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized by hierarchical levels based upon the level of judgment associated associated with the inputs used to measure their fair values. Recurring fair value measurements are limited to investments in derivative instruments. The fair value measurements of our derivative instruments are determined using models that maximize the use of the observable market inputs including interest rate curves and both forward and spot prices for currencies, and are classified as Level II under the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of our derivatives are included in Note 5.6.

In the second quarter of 2017 we recorded a $16.9 million inventory charge for costs incurred related to a contract to supply oil and gas platform equipment to an end user in Latin America. This charge was primarily related to our IPD reporting segment and resulted in a decrease to finished goods.

11.Legal Matters and Contingencies

10.Legal Matters and Contingencies
Asbestos-Related Claims
We are a defendant in a substantial number of lawsuits that seek to recover damages for personal injury allegedly caused by exposure to asbestos-containing products manufactured and/or distributed by our heritage companies in the past. Typically, these lawsuits have been brought against multiple defendants in state and federal courts. While the overall number of asbestos-related claims in which we or our predecessors have been named has generally declined in recent years, there can be no assurance that this trend will continue, or that the average cost per claim to us will not further increase. Asbestos-containing materials incorporated into any such products were encapsulated and used as internal components of process equipment, and we do not believe that any significant emission of asbestos fibers occurred during the use of this equipment.

Our practice is to vigorously contest and resolve these claims, and we have been successful in resolving a majority of claims with little or no payment. payment, other than legal fees. Activity related to asbestos claims during the periods indicated was as follows:

(1) All claims data in each period excludes inactive claims, as the Company considers it unlikely that inactive cases will be pursued further by the respective plaintiffs. A claim is classified as inactive either due to inactivity over a period of time or if designated as inactive by the applicable court.
(2) Represents the net change in claims as a result of the reclassification of active cases as inactive and inactive cases as active during the period indicated.Cases moved from active to inactive status are removed from the claims count without being accounted for as a "Resolved claim", and cases moved from inactive status to active status are added back to the claims count without being accounted for as a “New claim”.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company paid (net of insurance and/or indemnity) approximately $12.1 million to defend, resolve or otherwise dispose of outstanding claims, including legal and other related expenses.
Historically, a high percentage of resolved claims have been covered by applicable insurance or indemnities from other companies, and we believe that a substantial majority of existing claims should continue to be covered by insurance or indemnities. Accordingly,indemnities, in whole or in part.
We believe that our reserve for asbestos claims and the receivable for recoveries from insurance carriers that we have recorded a liability for ourthese claims reflects reasonable and probable estimates of these amounts. Our estimate of our ultimate exposure for asbestos claims, however, is subject to significant uncertainties, including the most likely settlementtiming and number and types of assertednew claims, and a related receivable from insurers or other companies for our estimated recovery, to the extent we believe that the amounts of recovery are probable and not otherwise in dispute. While unfavorable court rulings, judgments or settlement terms regardingand ultimate costs to settle. Additionally, including the continued viability of carriers, may also impact the amount of probable insurance recoveries. We believe that these claimsuncertainties could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, though we currently believe the likelihood is remote.
Additionally, we have claims pending against certain insurers that, if resolved more favorably than reflected in the recorded receivables, would result in discrete gains in the applicable quarter. We are currently unable to estimate the impact, if any, of unasserted asbestos-related claims, although future claims would also be subject to then existing indemnities and insurance coverage.
United Nations Oil-for-Food Program
In mid-2006, the French authorities began an investigation of over 170 French companies, of which one of our French subsidiaries was included, concerning suspected inappropriate activities conducted in connection with the United Nations Oil for Food Program. As previously disclosed, the French investigation of our French subsidiary was formally opened in the first quarter of 2010, and our French subsidiary filed a formal response with the French court. In July 2012, the French court ruled against our procedural motions to challenge the constitutionality of the charges and quash the indictment. Hearings occurred on April 1-2, 2015, and the Company presented its defense and closing arguments. On June 18, 2015, the French court issued its ruling dismissing the case against the Company and the other defendants. However, on July 1, 2015, the French prosecutor lodged an appeal and we anticipate that the hearing for the appeal will be held in 2018. We currently do not expect to incur additional case resolution costs of a material amount in this matter. However, if the French authorities ultimately take enforcement action against our French subsidiary regarding its investigation, we may be subject to monetary and non-monetary penalties, which we currently do not believe will have a material adverse financial impact on our company.
Other
We are currently involved as a potentially responsible party at five former public waste disposal sites in various stages of evaluation or remediation. The projected cost of remediation at these sites, as well as our alleged "fair share" allocation, will remain uncertain until all studies have been completed and the parties have either negotiated an amicable resolution or the matter has been judicially resolved. At each site, there are many other parties who have similarly been identified. Many of the other parties identified are financially strong and solvent companies that appear able to pay their share of the remediation costs. Based on our information about the waste disposal practices at these sites and the environmental regulatory process in general, we believe that it is likely that ultimate remediation liability costs for each site will be apportioned among all liable parties, including site owners and waste transporters, according to the volumes and/or toxicity of the wastes shown to have been disposed of at the sites. We believe that our financial exposure for existing disposal sites will not be materially in excess of accrued reserves.
As previously disclosed in our 2016 Annual Report, we terminated an employee of an overseas subsidiary after uncovering actions that violated our Code of Business Conduct and may have violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.  We completed our internal investigation into the matter, self-reported the potential violation to the United States Department of Justice (the “DOJ”) and the SEC, and continue to cooperate with the DOJ and SEC.  We previously received a subpoena from the SEC requesting additional information and documentation related to the matter and have completed our response to the subpoena.  We currently believe that this matter will not have a material adverse financial impact on the Company, but there can be no assurance that the Company will not be subjected to monetary penalties and additional costs.  Claims
We are also a defendant in a number of other lawsuits, including product liability claims, that are insured, subject to the applicable deductibles, arising in the ordinary course of business, and we are also involved in other uninsured routine litigation incidental to our business. We currently believe none of such litigation, either individually or in the aggregate, is material to our business, operations or overall financial condition. However, litigation is inherently unpredictable, and resolutions or

dispositions of claims or lawsuits by settlement or otherwise could have an adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the reporting period in which any such resolution or disposition occurs.
Although none of the aforementioned potential liabilities can be quantified with absolute certainty except as otherwise indicated above, we have established or adjusted reserves covering exposures relating to contingencies, to the extent believed to be reasonably estimable and probable based on past experience and available facts. While additional exposures beyond these reserves could exist, they currently cannot be estimated. We will continue to evaluate and update the reserves as necessary and appropriate.

14.Income Taxes

For the three months ended September 30, 2017,2020, we earned $68.4$72.3 million before taxes and provided for income taxes of $19.6$18.7 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 28.7%25.8%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2020, we earned $196.1$125.5 million before taxes and provided for income taxes of $85.8$59.2 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 43.8%47.2%. The effective tax rate varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 20172020 primarily due to the net impact of foreign operations, losses in certain foreign jurisdictionsoperations.

For the three months ended September 30, 2016, we incurred a pre-tax loss of $12.2 million and provided for income taxes of $2.8 million resulting in an effective tax rate of negative 23.2%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016,2019, we earned $123.1$84.4 million before taxes and provided for income taxes of $49.5$22.4 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 40.2%26.6%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we earned $231.5 million before taxes and provided for income taxes of $58.6 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 25.3%. The effective tax rate varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate for the three months ended September 30, 2019 primarily due to the BEAT provision in the Tax Reform Act and state tax. The effective tax rate varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily due to the BEAT provision in the Tax Reform Act and state tax, partially offset by the net impact of foreign operations.
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many governments have enacted or are contemplating measures to provide aid and economic stimulus. These measures may include deferring the due dates of tax payments or other changes to their income and non-income-based tax laws. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which was enacted on March 27, 2020 in the U.S., includes measures to assist companies, including temporary changes to income and non-income-based tax laws. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily due2020, there were no material tax impacts to our condensed consolidated financial statements as they relate to the net impact of foreign operations, tax impacts from our Realignment ProgramsCARES Act or any other global COVID-19 measures. We continue to monitor additional guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, the Internal Revenue Service and losses in certain foreign jurisdictions for which no tax benefit was provided.

others.
As of September 30, 2017,2020, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits increased by $3.1$6.0 million from December 31, 2016.2019. With limited exception, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax audits for years through 2015,2017, state and local income tax audits for years through 20112013 or non-U.S. income tax audits for years through 2010.2012. We are currently under examination for various years in Austria, France,Canada, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Singapore,Mexico, the Netherlands, Philippines, Saudi Arabia, the U.S. and Venezuela.
It is reasonably possible that within the next 12 months the effective tax rate will be impacted by the resolution of some or all of the matters audited by various taxing authorities. It is also reasonably possible that we will have the statute of limitations close in various taxing jurisdictions within the next 12 months. As such, we estimate we could record a reduction in our tax expense of approximately $8$7 million within the next 12 months.

16.Realignment Programs
In the first quarter of 2015, we initiated a realignment program ("R1 Realignment Program") to reduce and optimize certain non-strategic QRCs and manufacturing facilities. In the second quarter of 2015,2020, we identified and initiated a secondcertain realignment program ("R2 Realignment Program")activities resulting from our Flowserve 2.0 Transformation Program (defined below) to better alignright-size our organizational operations based on the current business environment, with the overall objective to reduce our workforce costs, and improve long-term efficiency, including further manufacturing optimization through the consolidation of certain facilities a reduction in our workforce, the transfer of("2020 Realignment Program"). The realignment activities from high-cost regions to lower-cost facilities and the divestiture of certain non-strategic assets.
The R1 Realignment Program and the R2 Realignment Program (collectively the "Realignment Programs") consist of both restructuring and non-restructuring charges. Restructuring charges represent costs associated with the relocation or reorganization of certain business activities and facility closures and include related severance costs. Non-restructuring charges are primarily employee severance associated with the workforce reductions to reduce redundancies.reductions. Expenses are primarily reported in COScost of sales ("COS") or selling, general and administrative ("SG&A,&A"), as applicable, in our condensed consolidated statements of income. We anticipate a total investment in these programsactivities of approximately $360$75 million including projectsand that the majority of the charges will be incurred in process or under final evaluation. We anticipate 2020. There are certain other realignment activities that are currently being evaluated, but have not yet been finalized. The realignment programs initiated in 2015 ("2015

Realignment Programs"), which consisted of both restructuring and non-restructuring charges, were substantially complete as of March 31, 2020, resulting in $362.4 million of total charges incurred through the completion of the programs.
In the second quarter of 2018, we launched and committed resources to incur the remaining charges throughout the remainderour Flowserve 2.0 Transformation ("Flowserve 2.0 Transformation"), a program designed to transform our business model to drive operational excellence, reduce complexity, accelerate growth, improve organizational health and better leverage our existing global platform. The Flowserve 2.0 Transformation expenses incurred primarily consist of 2017professional services, project management and into 2018.related travel costs recorded in SG&A expenses.
Generally, the aforementioned charges will be paid in cash, except for asset write-downs, which are non-cash charges. The following is a summary of total charges, net of adjustments, related to theour realignment activities and Flowserve 2.0 Transformation charges. Realignment charges incurred in 2020 related to our 2020 Realignment Program and realignment charges incurred in 2019 related to our 2015 Realignment Programs:

COVID-19 Update
The COVID-19 pandemic continues to have an impact on human health, the global economy and society at large. The pandemic is expected to continue to adversely impact, for its duration, our operations and financial performance.In response, we continue to actively monitor the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and geographies. Our cross-functional crisis management team established during the first quarter of 2020 has continued monitoring and making recommendations to management to help us continue operating as an essential business, while also protecting the health and safety of our associates.
Despite our evolving response, the COVID-19 pandemic has had an adverse effect on our performance during the nine months of 2020, which we expect will continue through at least the remainder of 2020.While we cannot reasonably estimate with certainty the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic or its ultimate impact on the global economy, our business or our financial condition and results, we nonetheless remain committed to providing the critical support, products and services that our customers rely on, and currently believe that we will emerge from these events well positioned for long-term growth.
Health and Safety of Our Associates
The health and safety of our associates, suppliers and customers around the world continues to be our first priority as we continue to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, including recent spikes in cases in various geographies in which we operate. We are incredibly proud of the great teamwork exhibited by our global workforce who have demonstrated strong resilience in adapting to continually evolving health and safety guidelines while addressing these challenging times and providing products and services to our customers.
We have implemented policies and practices to help protect our workforce so they can safely and effectively carry out their vital work, and we have continued to revise those policies and practices in light of guidance received from local and regional health authorities where appropriate. We instituted global restrictions on non-essential travel in March 2020 and the work-from-home policy for all non-essential employees who are able to do so has continued in effect in locations where health officials have advised such policies, including for our global headquarters in Irving, Texas, which will maintain its work-from-home policy at least through the end of 2020. In those locations where employees are going to work in our facilities, we have continued taking steps, consistent with guidelines from local and global health experts to protect our employees so that we can continue to manufacture critical technologies and equipment, including providing face coverings and other personal protective equipment, enhanced cleaning of sites and implemented social distancing protocols.
Our employees and facilities have a key role in keeping essential infrastructure and industries operating, including oil and gas, water, chemical, power generation and other essential industries, such as food and beverage and healthcare. While some of our facilities have experienced periods of temporary closures during the first six months of 2020 in accordance with decrees, orders and laws in their respective countries and geographies, as of November 13, 2020, all of our facilities are open and operational, and are running close to pre-COVID-19 levels as we continue to make essential products and provide services for our customers. However, the measures described above, combined with continued employee costs and under-absorption of manufacturing costs as a result of temporary closures and work-from-home policies, have had and are expected to continue having an adverse impact on our financial performance throughout the remainder of the pandemic.
Customer Demand
During the first nine months of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic’s reduction in global demand for oil and gas, coupled with excessive supply due to disagreements between the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and other oil producing nations in the first half of 2020, led to extreme volatility in global markets and in oil prices. These conditions have adversely impacted our customers, particularly in the oil and gas markets. For example, in the first half of 2020, these conditions drove a significant and broad-based decrease in customer planned capital spending, leading many of our large customers to announce double-digit capital expenditure budget decreases for the remainder of 2020. As a result, we saw overall bookings decline by 21.2% in the third quarter of 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019, resulting in a lower sequential backlog, though we have not seen a significant increase in the levels of customer cancellations in our existing backlog.
Additionally, the rapidly evolving impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have caused reduced activity levels in our aftermarket business in the first nine months of 2017,2020 due to deferred spending of our financial results continuedcustomers' repair and maintenance budgets, including the impact of restricted access to our customers' facilities. While we expect that these repair and maintenance projects will ultimately need to be challenged by capital spending declines, primarilycompleted, the timing will largely depend on the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and how the virus continues to spread in our customer’s various geographies.
These trends are likely to continue during the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic as various actions implemented to combat the pandemic will continue to reduce demand for oil and gas. As a result, we have experienced decreased bookings, sales and financial performance and anticipate this continuing throughout the remainder of the pandemic. Additionally, we
34


Table of Contents
expect the headwinds in the oil and gas industrymarkets that have resulted in, and pricing pressures. Although thereare likely to continue to result in, reduced capital expenditures and bookings for oil and gas customers to continue at least until oil demand and prices stabilize, which may not occur until after the pandemic subsides.
Supply Chain Impact
Since the onset of the pandemic, many of our suppliers have also experienced varying lengths of production and shipping conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, some of which continue to exist in highly affected countries. These conditions have had an adverse effect on the speed at which we can manufacture and ship our products to customers, and have also led to an increase in logistics, transportation and freight costs, requiring that we diversify our supply chain and, in some instances, source materials from new suppliers. Additionally, these conditions have in some cases impacted our ability to deliver products to customers on time, which has been stability in oil pricesturn led to an increase in backlog at some of our manufacturing sites. Though some of these issues have abated as the year has progressed, certain disruptions in our supply chain and their effects have continued through the third and fourth quarter of 2020 and we expect they will continue as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
Operational Impacts
We have also engaged in a number of cost savings measures in order to help mitigate certain of the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial results, including certain realignment activities (further described below under “—RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019”), a freeze on all non-essential open employment requisitions, cancellation of merit-based payroll increases for 2020, reduction of capital expenditures to approximately $60 million and cuts in other discretionary spending. Together, we are planning approximately $100 million of cost reductions, excluding realignment charges, in 2020 as compared to 2019, due in large part to our response to the effects of COVID-19, which partially offsets the increased costs and operational impacts of the safety protocols and procedures that we have implemented as described above under the heading "-Health and Safety of Our Associates." We continue to evaluate additional cost savings measures and will continue to implement such measures in the near term in order to reduce the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our financial results.
We continually monitor and assess the spread of COVID-19, including in areas that have seen recent increases in cases, and we will continue to adapt our operations to respond the changing conditions as needed. As we continue to manage our business through this unprecedented time of uncertainty and market volatility, we will remain focused on the health and safety of our associates, suppliers, customers, and will continue to provide essential products and services to our customers.
2020 Outlook
As the headwinds experienced during the first nine months of 2020 continue to impact our business, we expect to see an approximately 20% decline in bookings in the fourth quarter of 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019, with slightly less of an impact on revenue, which we expect will decline approximately 10% as compared to the same period in 2019. Despite these effects, however, we expect to be able to maintain adequate liquidity over recent quarters,the next 12 months as we anticipate thatmanage through the current environmentmarket environment. As of September 30, 2020, we had approximately $1.7 billion of liquidity, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $921.2 million and $745.9 million of borrowings available under our Senior Credit Facility. We will persistcontinue to actively monitor the potential impacts of COVID-19 and related events on the credit markets in order to maintain sufficient liquidity and access to capital throughout 2017.the remainder of 2020 and 2021.
To better align costs and improve long-term efficiency, we initiated Realignment Programs to accelerate both short- and long-term strategic plans, including targeted manufacturing optimization through the consolidation of facilities, SG&A efficiency initiatives, transfer of activities from high-cost regions to lower-cost facilities and the divestiture of certain non-strategic assets. At the completion of the programs, we expect an approximately 20% reduction in our global workforce, relative to early 2015 workforce levels. With an expected near-term investment of approximately $360 million, including projects in process or under final evaluation, we expect the results of our Realignment Programs will deliver annualized run-rate savings of approximately $230 million. In addition, we are focusing on our ongoing low-cost sourcing, including greater use of third-party suppliers and increasing our lower-cost, emerging market capabilities.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — Three and nine months ended September 30, 20172020 and 20162019

Throughout this discussion of our results of operations, we discuss the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. We have calculated currency effects on operations by translating current year results on a monthly basis at prior year exchange rates for the same periods.

In conjunction with our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Qclose process for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2017,third quarter of 2020, we identified accounting errors focused mainly at tworelated to the recognition of our non-U.S. sites ina liability for unasserted asbestos claims. The adjustments primarily related to an incurred but not reported ("IBNR") liability associated with unasserted asbestos claims, but also included adjustments related to the inventory, accounts receivable, costassociated receivables for expected insurance proceeds for asbestos settlement and defense costs from insurance coverage and the recognition as an expense the related legal fees that were previously estimated to be recoverable from insurance carriers for which coverage is not currently sufficient following the recognition of sales and selling, general and administrative balancesthe IBNR for prior periods beginning with the year ended December 31, 2014 through the firstsecond quarter of 2017.

As discussed in Note 3 tobetter leverage our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, effective May 2, 2017 we sold our FCD Gestra AG business to a leading provider of steam system solutions. In 2016, Gestra recorded revenues of approximately $101 million (€92 million) with earnings before interest and taxes of approximately $17 million (€15 million).
In 2015, we initiated Realignment Programs that consist of both restructuring and non-restructuring charges that areexisting global platform, which is further discussed in Note 1617 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. We anticipate that the Flowserve 2.0 Transformation will result in further restructuring charges, non-restructuring charges and other related transformation expenses. The Realignment Programs will continue throughout 2017Flowserve 2.0 Transformation expenses incurred primarily consist of professional services, project management and related travel costs recorded in SG&A expenses.
In the total charges for Realignment Programs by segment are detailed below forsecond quarter of 2020, we identified and initiated certain realignment activities resulting from our Flowserve 2.0 Transformation Program to right-size our organizational operations based on the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016:

2020. Based on actions under our Realignment Programs,initiated in the second quarter of 2020, we estimate that we have achieved cost savings of approximately $150$14 million for the nine months endedas of September 30, 2017, as compared2020, with $80 million in the same period of 2016. Approximately $95approximately $5 million of those savings are in COS with the remainderand approximately $9 million in SG&A. Upon completion of the 2020 Realignment Programs,Program activities, we expect full year run-rate cost savings of approximately $230$100 million of which approximately $214 million would be achieved in 2017. . Actual savings could vary from expected savings, which represent management’s best estimate to date. There are certain other realignment activities that are currently being evaluated, but have not yet been finalized. The realignment programs initiated in 2015 ("2015 Realignment Programs"), which consisted of both restructuring and non-restructuring charges, were substantially complete as of March 31, 2020, resulting in $362.4 million of total charges incurred through the completion of the programs.

Gross profit margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 of 29.9% decreased from 34.4%32.3% for the same period in 2016.2019. The decrease in gross profit margin was primarily attributabledue to the negative impact of decreased sales on our absorption of fixed manufacturing costs and lower margin projects shipped from backlog, partially offset by increased savings achievedcharges related to our 2020 Realignment ProgramsProgram, lower sales volume and revenue recognized on lower margin original equipment orders as compared to the same period in 2016.2019 and the unfavorable impact of underutilized capacity from the COVID-19 pandemic resulting in $5.8 million of manufacturing costs being expensed and other related costs.
SG&A for the three months ended September 30, 2020 decreased by $5.2 million, or 10.0%, as compared with the same period in 2019. Currency effects provided an increase of approximately $1 million.

Our Senior Credit Facility matures in October 2020. Approximately 8.3% of our outstanding Term Loan Facility is due to mature in the remainder of 2017 and approximately 33.3% in 2018. As of September 30, 2017,2020, we had an available capacity of $708.2 $745.9 million on our Senior Credit Facility, which provides for a $800.0 million Revolvingunsecured revolving credit facility with a maturity date of July 16, 2024. Our borrowing capacity is subject to financial covenant limitations based on the terms of our Senior Credit Facility.Facility and is also reduced by outstanding letters of credit. Our RevolvingSenior Credit Facility is committed and held by a diversified group of financial institutions. Refer to Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for additional information concerning our Senior Credit Facility.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 20162020 we contributed $20 millionmade no cash contributions to our U.S. pension plan. At December 31, 20162019, our U.S. pension plan was fully funded as defined by applicable law. After consideration of our funded status, we do not anticipate making any additionalelected to make no contributions attributable to ourthe U.S. pension plan in 2017, excluding direct benefits paid. 2020. We continue to maintain an asset allocation consistent with our strategy to maximize total return, while reducing portfolio risks through asset class diversification.
At September 30, 2017, $489.4 million of our total cash balance of $502.1 million was held by foreign subsidiaries, $375.8 million of which we consider permanently reinvested outside the U.S. Based on the expected near-term liquidity needs of our various geographies and our currently available sources of domestic short-term liquidity, we currently do not anticipate the need to repatriate any permanently reinvested cash to fund domestic operations that would generate adverse tax results. However, in the event this cash is needed to fund domestic operations, we estimate the full $375.8 million could be repatriated resulting in a U.S. cash tax liability between $5.0 million and $15.0 million. Should we be required to repatriate this cash, it could limit our ability to assert permanent reinvestment of foreign earnings and invested capital in future periods.
Considering our current debt structure and cash needs, we currently believe cash flows generated from operating activities combined with availability under our RevolvingSenior Credit Facility and our existing cash balance will be sufficient to meet our cash needs for the next 12 months. Cash flows from operations could be adversely affected by economic, political and other risks associated with sales of our products, operational factors, competition, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and fluctuations in interest rates, among other factors.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes contained within this Quarterly Report. Our critical accounting policies used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements were discussed in "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of our 20162019 Annual Report. These
During the three months ended September 30, 2020, our critical accounting policies and methodology used in determining reserves for contingent losses associated with unasserted asbestos claims changed. As described below, we identified accounting errors related to the recognition of a liability for unasserted asbestos claims. The adjustments primarily related to an incurred but not reported (“IBNR”) liability associated with unasserted asbestos claims, but also included adjustments related to the associated receivables for expected insurance proceeds for asbestos settlement and defense costs from insurance coverage and related legal fees. For further discussion related to this matter refer to Notes 1 and 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

The Company is a defendant in a number of lawsuits that seek to recover damages for personal injury allegedly resulting from exposure to asbestos-containing products formerly manufactured and/or distributed by heritage companies of the Company. Historically, the Company estimated the liability for unsettled asbestos-related claims based on known claims and on experience during the preceding two years for claims filed, settled and dismissed, with adjustments for events deemed unusual or unlikely to recur. In October 2020, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with two insurance companies providing coverage for one of its heritage companies. Given the size of the settlement, and as part of the third quarter close process, the Company re-evaluated its accounting for asbestos-related matters and evaluated the amount of receivables that were currently recorded. Additionally the Company considered the amount of historical data available, related to historic asbestos claims and settlements, which led the Company to conclude that a liability for an IBNR was probable and reasonably estimable.
The Company initiated an actuarial study to determine the amount of the IBNR, excluding legal fees, and evaluated all insurance programs for all product lines for insurance recoveries. With the assistance of third party consultants, the Company estimates the liability for pending and future claims not yet asserted, and which are probable and estimable, through 2049, which represents the expected end of our asbestos liability exposure with no further ongoing claims expected beyond that date. This estimate is based on the Company's historical claim experience and estimates of the number and resolution cost of potential future claims that may be filed based on anticipated levels of unique plaintiff asbestos-related claims in the U.S. tort system against all defendants, the diminished volatility and consistency of observable claims data, the period of time that has elapsed since we stopped manufacturing products that contained encapsulated asbestos and an expected downward trend in claims due to the average age of our claimants. This estimate is not discounted to present value. In light of the uncertainties and variables inherent in the long-term projection of the Company’s total asbestos liability, as part of our ongoing review of asbestos claims, each year we will reassess the projected liability of unasserted asbestos claims to be filed through 2049, and we will continually reassess the time horizon over which a reasonable estimate of unasserted claims can be projected.
The Company assesses the sufficiency of its estimated liability for pending and future claims on an ongoing basis by evaluating actual experience regarding claims filed, settled and dismissed, and amounts paid in settlements. In addition to claims and settlement experience, the Company considers additional quantitative and qualitative factors such as changes in legislation, the legal environment and the Company's defense strategy. In connection with the Company’s ongoing review of its asbestos-related claims, the Company also reviewed the amount of its potential insurance coverage for such claims, taking into account the remaining limits of such coverage, the number and amount of claims on our insurance from co-insured parties, ongoing litigation against the Company’s insurers, potential remaining recoveries from insolvent insurers, the impact of previous insurance settlements and coverage available from solvent insurers not party to the coverage litigation. The Company continues to have ongoing insurance coverage available for a significant amount of the potential future asbestos-related claims and may have additional insurance coverage, in the future.
The study from the Company’s actuary, based on data as of September 30, 2020, provided for a range of possible future liability from approximately $80.1 million to $131.7 million. The Company does not believe any amount within the range of potential outcomes represents a better estimate than another given the many factors and assumptions inherent in the projections and therefore the Company has recorded the liability at the actuarial central estimate of approximately $101.1 million. The Company has recorded estimated insurance receivables of approximately $87.5 million. The amounts recorded for the asbestos-related liability and the related insurance receivables are based on facts known at the time and a number of assumptions. However, projecting future events, such as the number of new claims to be filed each year, the length of time it takes to defend, resolve, or otherwise dispose of such claims, coverage issues among insurers and the continuing solvency of various insurance companies, as well as the numerous uncertainties surrounding asbestos litigation in the United States, could cause the actual liability and insurance recoveries for us to be higher or lower than those projected or recorded. Changes recorded in the estimated liability and estimated insurance recovery based on projections of asbestos litigation and corresponding insurance coverage, result in the recognition of additional expense or income.
Liabilities are recorded for various non-asbestos contingencies arising in the normal course of business when it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and such loss is reasonably estimable. Assessments of reserves are based on information obtained from our independent and in-house experts, including recent legal decisions and loss experience in similar situations. The recorded legal reserves are susceptible to changes due to new developments regarding the facts and circumstances of each matter, changes in political environments, legal venue and other factors. Recorded environmental reserves could change based on further analysis of our properties, technological innovation and regulatory environment changes.
Other critical policies, for which no significant changes have occurred in the nine months ended September 30, 2017,2020, include:

The process of preparing condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions to determine certain of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are based upon what we believe is the best information available at the time of the estimates or assumptions. The estimates and assumptions could change materially as conditions within and beyond our control change. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The significant estimates are reviewed quarterly with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.
Based on an assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, we believe that our condensed consolidated financial statements provide a meaningful and fair perspective of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations. This is not to suggest that other general risk factors, such as changes in worldwide demand, changes in material costs, performance of acquired businesses and others, could not adversely impact our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in future periods. See "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" below.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We have market risk exposure arising from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rate movements in foreign exchange contracts. We are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments, but we currently expect our counterparties will continue to meet their obligations given their current creditworthiness.
Interest Rate Risk
Our earnings are impacted by changes in short-term interest rates as a result of borrowings under our Senior Credit Facility, which bear interest based on floating rates. At September 30, 2017, we had $180.0 million of variable rate debt obligations outstanding under our Senior Credit Facility with a weighted average interest rate of 2.58%. A hypothetical change of 100 basis points in the interest rate for these borrowings, assuming constant variable rate debt levels, would have changed interest expense by $1.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
A substantial portion of our operations are conducted by our subsidiaries outside of the U.S. in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Almost all of our non-U.S. subsidiaries conduct their business primarily in their local currencies, which are also their functional currencies. Foreign currency exposures arise from translation of foreign-denominated assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars and from transactions, including firm commitments and anticipated transactions, denominated in a currency other than our or a non-U.S. subsidiary’s functional currency. In March 2015, weWe have designated €255.7€336.3 million of our €500.0 million1.25% Euro 2022 Euro Senior Notes as a net investment hedge of our investments in certain of our international subsidiaries that use the Euro as their functional currency. Generally,On September 22, 2020, as a means of managing the volatility of foreign currency exposure with the Euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate, we viewentered into a swap associated with our Euro investment in certain of our international subsidiaries and was designated as a net investment hedge. As of September 30, 2020, the notional value of the swap was €163.2 million. Routinely, we review our investments in foreign subsidiaries from a long-term perspective and use capital structuring techniques to manage our investment in foreign subsidiaries as deemed necessary. We realized net gains (losses) associated with foreign currency translation of $17.7$25.2 million and $(15.6)$(30.6) million for the three months ended September 30, 20172020 and 20162019, respectively, and $85.8$(41.0) million and $(12.6)$(26.5) million for the nine months ended September 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, respectively, which are included in other comprehensive income (loss).
We employ a foreign currency risk management strategy to minimize potential changes in cash flows from unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movements. Where available, the use of foreign exchange contracts allows us to mitigate transactional exposure to exchange rate fluctuations as the gains or losses incurred on the foreign exchange contracts will offset, in whole or in part, losses or gains on the underlying foreign currency exposure. Our policy allows foreign currency coverage only for identifiable foreign currency exposures and beginning in the fourth quarter of 2013 instruments that meet certain criteria are designated for hedge accounting. As of September 30, 2017,2020, we had a U.S. dollar equivalent of $237.6of $399.6 million in aggregateaggregate notional amount outstanding in foreign exchange contracts with third parties, as compared with $393.8$398.5 million at December 31, 2016.2019. Transactional currency gains and losses arising from transactions outside of our sites’ functional currencies and changes in fair value of non-designatednon-designated foreign exchange contracts are included in our consolidated results of operations. We recognized foreign currency net (losses) gains (losses) of $8.4$(2.3) million and $1.4$(7.8) million for the three months ended September 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, respectively, and $(9.7)$9.3 million and $2.5$(13.8) million for the nine months ended September 30, 20172020 and 2016,2019, respectively, which are included in other (expense) income (expense), net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.
Based on a sensitivity analysis at September 30, 2017,2020, a 10% change in the foreign currency exchange rates for the nine months ended September 30, 20172020 would have impacted our net earnings by approximately $11approximately $16 million. This calculation assumes that all currencies change in the same direction and proportion relative to the U.S. dollar and that there are no indirect effects, such as changes in non-U.S. dollar sales volumes or prices. This calculation does not take into account the impact of the foreign currency exchange contracts discussed above.

Our management, including2020. Based on this evaluation, our current Principal Executive Officerprincipal executive officer and Principal Financial Officer,principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2017 because of the previously identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in Item 9A. Controls and Procedures in our Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.
Management has concluded that, notwithstanding the material weaknesses referred to above, the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q fairly state, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods presented, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Remediation Plan
In the second quarter of 2017, management became actively engaged in the planning for, and implementation of, remediation efforts to address the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting identified above. Management has implemented the following steps in the third quarter of 2017:
enhanced the current business process review control procedures to include additional prior period comparisons and additional key ratios, metrics and risk based criteria as determined by management;
enhanced the detailed site and/or process reviews based on criteria determined by management’s risk assessment including manual journal entries;
conducted enhanced ethics, controls and policy training for employees at the one non-U.S. site where certain employees engaged in conduct that circumvented controls.
Management believes the measures described above and others that may be implemented will remediate the material weaknesses that we have identified. Management is in the process of testing the effectiveness of the revised controls.  These material weaknesses cannot be considered fully remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.2020.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than the remediation actions identified above, there wereThere have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 20172020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
