1.Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31,September 30, 2021, the related condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020, the condensed consolidated statements of shareholders' equity for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020 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, priorPrior 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 March 31,September 30, 2021 ("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 for the year ended December 31, 2020 ("2020 Annual Report").
Revision to Previously Reported Financial Information - During the first quarter of 2021, as previously disclosed, we identified an accounting error involving foreign currency transactions beginning with the first quarter of 2020 through the year ended December 31, 2020. These adjustments increased retirement obligations and other liabilities by approximately $1$1.5 million, retained earnings by approximately $14$14.0 million and accumulated other comprehensive loss by approximately $15$15.5 million as of December 31, 2020.
In addition, as previously disclosed, during the third quarter of 2020, Additionally, we identified accountingand corrected certain immaterial errors related toof cash flow activities on our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for 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 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 the IBNR for periods beginning with the yearnine month period ended December 31, 2014 through the second quarter of 2020 and to correct certain other previously identified immaterial errors.September 30, 2020.
We have assessed the above described errors individually and in the aggregate, and concluded theythe effects were not material to the period ended March 31,September 30, 2020 or any previous period. The March 31,September 30, 2020 balances, as presented herein, have been revised. The remaining periods inAdditionally, the December 31, 2020 not presented hereinbalances will be revised as applicable, in future filings. Forthe next time such financial statements are filed. Refer to Note 2 for a detailed discussion related to the impact of the revision as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the impact to the December 31, 2020 balances, which will be revised balances refer to Note 2.in future filings.
Coronavirus Pandemic ("COVID-19") and Oil and Gas Market - DuringDuring the first threenine months of 2021, we continue to be challenged by macroeconomics and global economic impacts based on the disruption and uncertainties caused by COVID-19. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic’s effect on oil prices, many of our large customers reduced capital expenditures and budgets in 2020. To date, while we have seen customer maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") and aftermarket spending return close to pre-pandemic levels, and although we are seeing momentum in project-based capital expenditures, such business has yet to return to pre-pandemic levels, resulting in lower bookings as well as lower revenue in the first three months of 2021 as compared to the prior year.levels.
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements requires 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 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 other long-lived assets, financial assets, and valuation allowances for tax assets, will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain, including as a result of new information that may emerge concerning COVID-19 and the actions taken to contain it or treat 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 changes to those estimates in the near to mid-term as new information becomes available. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Accounting Developments

Pronouncements Implemented
In January 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2020-01, "Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Clarifying the Interactions between Topics 321, 323 and 815." The amendments of the ASU addresses accounting for the transition into and out of the equity method and measurement of certain purchased options and forward contracts to acquire investments. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and the amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or net cash flows.
In March of 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of The Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." The ASU provides guidance designed to enable the process for migrating away from reference rates such as the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and others to new reference rates. Further, the amendments of the ASU provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships, subject to meeting certain criteria, that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The amendments are effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied to contract modifications and hedging relationships from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020. At this time, we do not have hedging relationships that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued and therefore, have not applied the practical expedients and exceptions as required by the ASU. As referenced in Note 7 of this Quarterly Report, theThe Company’s Senior Credit Facility agreement includes a transition clause in the event LIBOR is discontinued, as such, we do not expect the transition of LIBOR to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We do not expect the application of these expedients and exceptions to have an impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.
In October 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-10, "Codification Improvements: Amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification." The amendments in this ASU do not change GAAP and, therefore, are not expected to result in a significant change in practice. Rather, the amendments are intended to improve codification guidance and disclosure requirements in Company's financial statements and notes to the financial statements. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020 and the amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations or net cash flows.

2.Revision to Previously Reported Financial Information

During the first quarter of 2021, we identified an accounting error involving foreign currency transactions beginning with the first quarter of 2020 though the year ended December 31, 2020. These adjustments increased retirement obligations and other liabilities by approximately $1$1.5 million, retained earnings by approximately $14$14.0 million and accumulated other comprehensive loss by approximately $15$15.5 million as of December 31, 2020.
In the third quarter of 2020, Additionally, we identified accountingand corrected certain immaterial errors related toof cash flow activities on our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the recognition of a liability for unasserted asbestos claims. The adjustments primarily relate to an IBNR associated with unasserted asbestos claims, but also include adjustments related to the associated 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 the IBNR and to correct certain other previously identified immaterial misstatements.

3.Revenue Recognition

The majority of our revenues 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 services, including any combination of designing, developing, manufacturing, modifying, installing and commissioning of flow management equipment and providing services and parts related to the performance 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 18%15% and 23% of total revenue for the three month periodsperiod ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 15% and 22% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, 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 82%85% and 77% of total revenue for the three month periodsperiod ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 85% and 78% for the nine month period ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Refer to Note 3 to our consolidated financial statements included included in our 2020 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 segments based on the type of product and how we manage the business:
•Flowserve Pump Division ("FPD") fordesigns and manufactures 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") designs, manufactures and distributes a broad portfolio of engineered-to-order and configured-to-order isolation valves, control valves, valve automation products boiler controls and related equipment.
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

On March 31,September 30, 2021, the aggregate transaction price allocated to unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations was approximately $573$493 million. We estimate recognition of approximately $390$145 million of this amount as revenue in the remainder of 2021 and an additional $183$348 million in 2022 and thereafter.

Contract Balances

We receive payment from customers based on a contractual billing schedule and specific performance requirements as established in our contracts. We record billings as accounts receivable when an unconditional right to consideration exists. A contract asset represents revenue recognized in advance of our right to receive payment under the terms of a contract. A contract liability represents our right to receive payment in advance of revenue recognized for a contract.

4.Allowance for Expected Credit Losses

As previously disclosed, on January 1, 2020 we adopted ASU No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" ("CECL") on a prospective basis to determine our allowance for credit losses. 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 January 1, 2020 opening condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The allowance for credit losses is an estimate of the credit losses expected over the life of our financial assets and instruments. We assess and measure expected credit losses on a collective basis when similar risk characteristics exist, including market, geography, credit risk and remaining duration. Financial assets and instruments that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Our estimate of the allowance balance is assessed and quantified using internal and external valuation information relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts over the contractual terms of an asset.
Our primary exposure to expected credit losses is through our 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. Primarily, our experience of historical credit losses provides the basis for our estimation of the allowance. We estimate the allowance based on an aging schedule and according to historical losses as determined from our history of billings and collections. 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 geopolitical risks. We also consider both the current and forecasted macroeconomic conditions as of the reporting date. As identified and needed, 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 be uncollectible. Subsequent recoveries of previously written off amounts are reflected as a reduction to credit impairment losses in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Table of Contents
Contract assets represent a conditional right to consideration for satisfied performance obligations that become a receivable when the conditions are satisfied. Generally, contract assets are recorded when contractual billing schedules differ from revenue recognition based on timing and are managed through the revenue recognition process. TheBased on our historical credit loss experience, the current expected credit loss for contract assets is estimated to be approximately 1% of the asset balance.

The following table presents the changes in the allowance for expected credit losses for our trade receivables and contract assets for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020:

5.Stock-Based Compensation Plans

We maintain the Flowserve Corporation 2020 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2020 Plan”), which is a shareholder approved plan authorizing the issuance of 12,500,000 shares of our common stock in the form of restricted shares, restricted share units and performance-based units (collectively referred to as "Restricted Shares"), incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights and bonus stock. Of the shares of common stock authorized under the 2020 Plan, 11,230,38611,312,201 were available for issuance as of March 31,September 30, 2021. Restricted Shares primarily vest over a three year period. Restricted Shares granted to employees who retire and have achieved at least 55 years of age and 10 years of service continue to vest over the original vesting period ("55/10 Provision"). As of March 31,September 30, 2021, 114,943 stock options were outstanding. NaNNo stock options were granted or vested during the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020.

 Restricted Shares – Awards of Restricted Shares are valued at the closing market price of our common stock on the date of grant. The unearned compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period of the restricted shares, except for awards related to the 55/10 Provision which are expensed in the period granted. We had unearned compensation of $45.230.5 millionand $18.7 million at March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, which is expected to be recognized over a remaining weighted-average period of approximately two years. one year. These amounts will be recognized into net earnings in prospective periods as the awardsawards vest. The total fair value of Restricted Shares vested during the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $23.4$0.2 million and $18.1$4.9 million, respectively. The total fair value of Restricted Shares vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was $24.6 million and $25.9 million, respectively.
We recorded stock-based compensation expense of of $7.6$5.5 million ($9.87.1 million pre-tax) and $11.1$4.3 million ($14.35.6 million pre-tax) for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $18.2 million ($23.6 million pre-tax) and $18.7 million ($24.1 million pre-tax) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Unvested Restricted Shares outstanding as of March 31,September 30, 2021 included approximately approximate526,000ly 511,000 units with performance-based vesting provisions. Performance-based units areprovisions issuable in common stock and vest upon the achievement of pre-defined performance targets. Performance-based units issued in 2019 and 2020 havemetrics. Targets for outstanding performance targetsawards are based on our average return on invested capital, and our total shareholder return ("TSR") or free cash flow as a percent of net income over a three-year period. Performance units issued in 2021 have primary performance targets based on average return on invested capital and free cash flow asinclude a percent of net income, including a secondary measure, relative total shareholder return, performance measure which can increase or decrease the number of vesting units by 15% depending on the Company's performance versus peers. Performance units issued in 2019 and 2020 have a vesting percentage between 0% and 200% and, while the 2021 performance units issued in 2021 have a vesting percentage between 0% andup to 230%. Compensation expense is generally recognized ratably over a cliff-vesting period of 36 months, based on the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant, as adjusted for actual forfeitures. During the performance period, earned and unearned compensation expense is adjusted based on changes in the expected achievement of the performance targets for all performance-based units granted except for the TSR-based units. Vesting provisions range from 0 to approximately 1,101,0001,064,000 shares based on performance targets. As of March 31,September 30, 2021, we estimate vesting of approximately 496,000483,000 shares based on expectedexpected achievement of performance targets.

6.Derivative Instruments and Hedges
Our risk management and foreign currency derivatives and hedging policy specifies the conditions under which we may enter into derivative contracts. See Notes 1 and 9 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2020 Annual Report and Note 8 of this Quarterly Report for additional information on our derivatives. 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.
Foreign exchange contracts with third parties had a notional value of $371.3of $361.3 million and $388.1 million at March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. At March 31,September 30, 2021, the length of foreign exchange contracts currently in place ranged from 620 days to 1724 months.
We are exposed to risk from credit-related losses resulting from nonperformance by counterparties to our financial instruments. We perform credit evaluations of our counterparties under foreign exchange contracts agreements and expect all counterparties to meet their obligations. We have not experienced credit losses from our counterparties.

As a means of managing the volatility of foreign currency exposure with the Euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate, we enter into cross-currency swaps agreements ("Swaps") as a hedge of our Euro investment in certain of our international subsidiaries. Accordingly, on April 14, 2021 and March 9, 2021, we entered into a cross currency swap agreementagreements, with termination dates of October 1, 2030 and an early termination date of March 9,11, 2025, andrespectively. Also, during the third quarter of 2020 we entered into a cross currency swap agreement with an early termination date of September 22, 2025. BothThe swap agreements are designated as net investment hedges. Ashedges and as of March 31,September 30, 2021 the combined notional value of these swaps was €288.2 million. The swaps are included in retirement obligations and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of €423.2 millionMarch 31, 2021, with a fair value of $(18.3) million, compared to $(18.1) million as of December 31, 2020..

We exclude the interest accruals on the swaps 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 swaps 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. For the periodthree and nine months ending March 31,September 30, 2021,, an interest accrual of$(0.6) million was $2.3 million and $5.0 million, respectively, was recognized within interest expense,in other income (expense), net, in our condensed consolidated statements of income. income.

Senior Notes
On September 23, 2021, we completed a public offering of $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due January 15, 2032 ("2032 Senior Notes"). The 2032 Senior Notes bear an interest rate of 2.800% per year, payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year, commencing on January 15, 2022. The 2032 Senior Notes were priced at 99.656% of par value, reflecting a discount to the aggregate principal amount. The combined proceeds of the notes offering and term loan facility, in addition to a portion of our excess cash balance, were intended to redeem our 3.500% Senior Notes due September 2022 (“2022 Senior Notes”) and our 4.000% Senior Notes due November 2023 (“2023 Senior Notes”), for which we have issued notices of redemption to the bondholders. Accordingly, on October 12, 2021, the 2022 Senior Notes and 2023 Senior Notes were redeemed in full at the make-whole redemption price and have been classified as current as of September 30, 2021. As a result of the redemption, in the fourth quarter of 2021 the Company incurred a loss on early extinguishment of $38.0 million, which included the impact of a $36.1 million make-whole premium.

8.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 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 6.
OurThe carrying value of our financial instruments are presented at fair valueas reflected in our condensed consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value, with the exception of our long-term debt. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt, excluding the Senior Notes, approximates the carrying value and is classified as Level II under the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of our debt is included in Note 7. The estimated fair value of our Senior Notes at March 31,September 30, 2021 was $1,340.1$1,850.5 million compared to the carrying value of $1,291.7$1,786.1 million. The estimated fair value of the Senior Notes is based on Level I quoted market rates. The carrying amounts of our other financial instruments (e.g., cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable and short-term debt) approximated fair value due to their short-term nature at March 31,September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

11.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 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, other than legal fees. Activity related to asbestos claims during the periods indicated was as follows:follows

(1) Beginning and ending 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 three months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred expenses (net of insurance) approximateof approximately ly $2.7$5.6 million, compared to $2.4 million for the same period in 2020 to defend, resolve or otherwise dispose of outstanding claims, including legal and $4.3other related expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 the Company incurred expenses (net of insurance) of approximately $10.1 million respectively,, compared to $9.0 million for the same period in 2020 to defend, resolve or otherwise dispose of outstanding claims, including legal and other related expenses. These expenses are included within SG&A in our condensed consolidated statements of income.
The Company had cash (inflows)/outflows (net of insurance and/or indemnity) to defend, resolve or otherwise dispose of outstanding claims, including legal and other related expenses of approximately $1.6approximately $1.2 million and $1.4$5.0 million during the periods endingnine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
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, 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 for these 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 timing and number and types of new claims, unfavorable court rulings, judgments or settlement terms and ultimate costs to settle. Additionally, including the continued viability of carriers may also impact the amount of probable insurance recoveries. We believe that these uncertainties could have a
20

Table of Contents
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.
Other 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 March 31,September 30, 2021, we earned $21.0$41.4 million before taxes and provided forrecorded a benefit from income taxes of $3.8$10.4 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 18.1% (25.2)%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we earned $112.8 million before taxes and recorded a benefit from income taxes of $3.9 million resulting in an effective tax rate of (3.5)%. The effective tax rate varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 primarily due to the net impact of foreign operations and the reversal of certain deferred tax liabilities as a result of legal entity restructuring of foreign holding companies. The effective tax rate varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 primarily due to higher withholding taxes related to transactions with and amongst various foreign subsidiaries, offset by the net impact of foreign operations, the reversal of certain deferred tax liabilities as a result of legal entity restructuring specific aspects of our global financing arrangementsforeign holding companies, and higher withholding taxes related to transactions with and amongst variousfavorable resolution of audits in foreign subsidiaries.jurisdictions.
For the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020, we earned $51.2$78.0 million before taxes and provided for income taxes of $37.0$19.2 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 72.2%24.6%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we earned $141.9 million before taxes and provided for income taxes of $60.7 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 42.7%. The effective tax rate varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2020 primarily due to the net impact of foreign operations. The effective tax rate varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 primarily due to the establishment of a valuation allowance against certain deferred tax assets given the current and anticipated impact to the Company's operations resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the distressed oil prices, and 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

Table of Contents
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 March 31,September 30, 2021, there were no material tax impacts to our condensed consolidated financial statements as they relate to the CARES 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 others.
As of March 31,September 30, 2021, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits decreased by $1.4$2.0 million from December 31, 2020. With limited exception, we are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax audits for years through 2017, state and local income tax audits for years through 2014 or non-U.S. income tax audits for years through 2013. We are currently under examination for various years in Argentina, Canada, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Malaysia, 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 $15$12 million within the next 12 months.

17.Realignment and Transformation Programs

In the second quarter of 2020, we identified and initiated certain realignment activities resulting from our Flowserve 2.0 Transformation Program (defined below) to right-size our organizational operations based on the current business environment, with the overall objective to reduce our workforce costs, including manufacturing optimization through the consolidation of certain facilities ("2020 Realignment Program"). The realignment activities consist of restructuring and non-restructuring charges. Restructuring charges represent costs associated with the relocation of certain business activities and facility closures and include related severance costs. Non-restructuring charges are primarily employee severance associated with the workforce reductions. Expenses are primarily reported in cost of sales ("COS") or selling, general and administrative ("SG&A"), as applicable, in our condensed consolidated statements of income. We anticipate a total investment in these activities of approximately $90$95 million and the majority of the charges were incurred in 2020 with the remainder to be incurred through the second quarter ofin 2021. There are certain other realignment activities that are currently being evaluated, but have not yet been finalized.

In the second quarter of 2018, we launched and committed resources to our 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 consisted of professional services, project management and related travel costs recorded in SG&A expenses. As of the first quarter of 2021,December 31, 2020, the Flowserve 2.0 Transformation efforts were substantially completed. For the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021, there were no Flowserve 2.0 Transformation charges.
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, incurred in 2021 related to our 2020 Realignment Program and the total charges incurred in 2020 are related to our 2020 Realignment Program and Flowserve 2.0 Transformation:

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Our Company
We are a world-leading manufacturer and aftermarket service provider of comprehensive flow control systems. We develop and manufacture precision-engineered flow control equipment integral to the movement, control and protection of the flow of materials in our customers’ critical processes. Our product portfolio of pumps, valves, seals, automation and aftermarket services supports global infrastructure industries, including oil and gas, chemical, power generation and water management, as well as general industrial markets where our products and services add value. Through our manufacturing platform and global network of Quick Response Centers ("QRCs"), we offer a broad array of aftermarket equipment services, such as installation, advanced diagnostics, repair and retrofitting. We currently employ approximately 16,000 15,000 employees in more than 50 cocountries.
Our business model is significantly influenced by the capital and operating spending of global infrastructure industries for the placement of new products into service and aftermarket services for existing operations. The worldwide installed base of our products is an important source of aftermarket revenue, where products are expected to ensure the maximum operating time of many key industrial processes. We have significantly invested in our aftermarket strategy to provide local support to drive customer investments in our offerings and use of our services to replace or repair installed products. The aftermarket portion of our business also helps provide business stability during various economic periods. The aftermarket service and solutions business, which is primarily served by our network of 162163 QRCs located around the globe, provides a variety of service offerings for our customers including spare parts, service solutions, product life cycle solutions and other value-added services. It is generally a higher margin business compared to our original equipment business and a key component of our business strategy.

Our operations are conducted through two business segments that are referenced throughout this MD&A:
•Flowserve Pump Division ("FPD") fordesigns and manufactures 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") designs, manufactures and distributes a broad portfolio of engineered-to-order and configured-to-order isolation valves, control valves, valve automation products boiler controls and related equipment.
Our business segments share a focus on industrial flow control technology and have a number of common customers. These segments also have complementary product offerings and technologies that are often combined in applications that provide us a net competitive advantage. Our segments also benefit from our global footprint and our economies of scale in reducing administrative and overhead costs to serve customers more cost effectively. For example, our segments share leadership for operational support functions, such as sales, research and development, marketing and supply chain.
The reputation of our product portfolio is built on more than 50 well-respected brand names such as Worthington, IDP, Valtek, Limitorque, Durco, Argus, Edward, Valbart and Durametallic, which we believe to be one of the most comprehensive in the industry. Our products and services are sold either directly or through designated channels to more than 10,000 companies, including some of the world’s leading engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") firms, original equipment manufacturers, distributors and end users.
We continue to leverage our QRC network to be positioned as near to customers as possible for service and support in order to capture valuable aftermarket business. Along with maintaining the local capability to sell, install and service our equipment in remote regions, it is equally imperative to continuously improve our global operations. Despite continued headwinds caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we continue to enhance our global supply chain capabilities to continue to increase our ability to meet global customer demands and continue to improve the quality and timely delivery of our products over the long-term. Additionally, we continue to devote resources to improve the supply chain processes across our business segments and find areas of synergy and cost reduction, all along improving our supply chain management capability to meet global customer demands. We also remain focused on improving on-time delivery and quality, while managing warranty costs as a percentage of sales across our global operations, through the assistance of a focused Continuous Improvement Process ("CIP") initiative. The goal of the CIP initiative, which includes lean manufacturing, six sigma business management strategy and value engineering, is to maximize service fulfillment to customers through on-time delivery, reduced cycle time and quality at the highest internal productivity.
COVID-19 Update
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. We anticipate that the COVID-19 pandemic will have less of an impact on human health, the global economy and society at large in 2021 as vaccine supply continues to increase and efforts to distribute and administer ramped up worldwide. As a result, the pandemic is expected to have less of an impact on our operations and financial performance as we progress through 2021 than it did in 2020, though we expect that widespread implications of the pandemic worldwide will continue to cause substantial economic uncertainty and challenging operational conditions throughout 2021.through the remainder of this year. We continuedcontinue to actively monitor the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and geographies.
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 firsta priority as we continue to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, including recent spikes in cases of the virus and its variants in various geographies in which we operate. These recent spikes caused significant labor availability issues in the third quarter of 2021, which contributed to the COVID-19 operational challenges faced during the quarter. 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.

At the beginning of the pandemic we 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 continue to enforce the previously instituted global restrictions on non-essential travel 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 for at least through the middle of 2021. In those locations where employees are going to work in our facilities, including our global headquarters in Irving, Texas, which began a phased reopening during the second quarter of 2021, we continue taking steps, consistent with guidelines from local and global health experts to protect our employees so that we can continue operations and manufacture critical technologies and equipment, including providing face coverings and other personal protective equipment, enhanced cleaning of sites and implementedthe implementation of 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 in accordance with decrees, orders and laws in their respective countries and geographies, many of which occurred at the onset of the pandemic, as of May 3, 2021, allAll 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. While 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, we anticipate thathad seen these adverse impacts will decline in the first half of 2021 as the roll out of vaccines improveshas improved around the worldworld. Despite the increased challenges of labor availability in the third quarter, we continue to expect a further decline of these adverse impacts and as we navigate further through the pandemic in 2021.
Customer Demand
During the first threenine months of 2021, the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in global markets has continued to adversely impact our customers, particularly in the oil and gas markets. As a result of the pandemic’s effect (among certain other effects) on oil prices during 2020, many of our large customers reduced capital expenditures and budgets last year. To date, while spending for maintenance and repair projects and aftermarket services have returned close to pre-pandemic levels, project-based customer spending has yet to return to pre-pandemic levels. As a result,levels despite some modest improvement in the first nine months of 2021. In this regard, we saw an overall declineincrease in bookings of 3.3%8.4% in the first quarternine months of 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020, though2020. Despite the modest improvement in customer spending, during the third quarter we have not seen a significantexperienced an increase in customer-driven delays in the levelswitnessing and inspection necessary to take delivery of customer cancellations in our existing backlog.
Whileequipment, which we expect thatwill continue as long as we and our customers continue to experience the supply chain and logistics headwinds described below under the heading "Supply Chain Impact."
While many of the repair and maintenance projects that were paused by our customers last year as a result of the pandemic have gone forward in 2021 and others will ultimately need to be completed, the timing will largely depend on the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and how the virus continues to spread in our customers’ various geographies. While we expect to seehave seen some recovery in capital expenditure budgets and, therefore, our bookings as we navigate throughout 2021,during the year, we do not expect planned capital spending to approach pre-pandemic levels for some time.in 2021.
Supply Chain Impact
Since the onset of the pandemic, many of our suppliers have also experienced varying lengths of production and shipping delays related to the COVID-19 pandemic, some of which continue to exist in highly affected countries. Additionally, the global supply chain and logistics constraints that are currently affecting global markets caused additional headwinds in the third quarter, which we expect to continue into the fourth quarter. 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 in turn led to an increase in backlog at some of our manufacturing sites. Though some of these issues have abated as the pandemic has progressed, certainThese disruptions in our supply chain and their effects have continued and we expect they will continue as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.and ongoing global supply chain and logistics headwinds continue.
Operational Impacts
We continue to engage 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 March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020”), reductions in capital expenditures and continued cuts in other discretionary spending due to our response to the effects of COVID-19, which partially offsets the continued costs and operational impacts of the safety protocols and procedures that we have implemented and sustained as described above under the heading "-Health"Health and Safety of Our Associates." We continue to evaluate additional cost savings measures 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 and known variants, 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. During the third quarter, we experienced increased difficulty in maintaining staffing and productivity levels due to both a higher quarantine rate and a tighter labor market for new hiring. 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.
2021 Outlook
As the headwinds experienced in 2020 continue to impact our business, largely in the form of lower bookings which resulted in a lower starting 2021 backlog, we expect revenues will decline in 2021 approximately 3% to 5% as compared to the same period in 2020. Despite these effects, however, we expect to be able to maintain adequate liquidity over the next 12 months as we manage through the current market environment. As of March 31, 2021, we had approximately $1.4 billion of liquidity, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $659.3 million and $742.0 million of borrowings available under our Senior Credit Facility. We will continue 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 2021. As the world continues to make progress against COVID-19 largely through increased vaccinations, we have begun to see an inflection in our served end-markets as commodity prices and mobility levels increase. Despite this inflection, the combined
32

Table of Contents
effects of the supply chain, logistics and labor availability headwinds discussed above shifted approximately $60 million of expected revenue out of the third quarter and impacted operating income as a percent of sales by approximately 150 basis points. However, we have not seen and do not expect to see an increase in cancellations from our backlog. We therefore expect to continue to deliver on our backlog during the fourth quarter and into 2022, though with a slightly longer cycle time than originally expected. We also expect quarterly bookings to recover to at least our first half 2021 quarterly run rate. As such, assuming continued progress with the pandemic, we expect full-year bookings in 2021 to increase roughly 10% compared to 2020 levels, with fourth quarter bookings expected to be the highest quarterly level in the mid-single digit percentage range.2021.

As of September 30, 2021, we had approximately $2.2 billion of liquidity, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $1,457.3 million and $708.6 million of borrowings available under our Credit Facility. During the quarter, we completed a public offering of our 2032 Senior Notes for $498.3 million in proceeds and approximately $300.0 million was drawn under the unsecured term loan facility. The combined proceeds of the notes offering and term loan facility, in addition to a portion of our excess cash balance, were intended to redeem in full at the make-whole redemption price of our 2022 Senior Notes and 2023 Senior Notes. After giving effect to the October 12, 2021, redemption of our 2022 Senior Notes and 2023 Senior Notes, we had approximately $1.3 billion of liquidity, consisting of cash and cash equivalents of $615.2 million and $708.6 million of borrowings available under our Senior Credit Facility.
We do not currently anticipate, nor are we aware of, any significant market conditions or commitments that would change any of our conclusions of the liquidity currently available to us. We will continue 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 2021.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS — Three months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020

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.
During the first quarter of 2021, as previously disclosed, we identified an accounting error involving foreign currency transactions beginning with the first quarter of 2020 through the year ended December 31, 2020. These adjustments increased retirement obligations and other liabilities by approximately $1$1.5 million, retained earnings by approximately $14$14.0 million and accumulated other comprehensive loss by approximately $15$15.5 million as of December 31, 2020.
In addition, as previously disclosed, during the third quarter of 2020, Additionally, we identified accountingand corrected certain immaterial errors related toof cash flow activities on our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for 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 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 the IBNR for periods beginning with the yearnine month period ended December 31, 2014 through the second quarter of 2020 and to correct certain other previously identified immaterial errors.September 30, 2020.
We have assessed the above described errors individually and in the aggregate, and concluded theythe effects were not material to the period ended March 31,September 30, 2020 or any previous period. The March 31,September 30, 2020 balances, as presented herein, have been revised. The remaining periods inAdditionally, the December 31, 2020 not presented hereinbalances will be revised as applicable, in future filings. Forthe next time such financial statements are filed. Refer to Note 2 for a detailed discussion related to the impact of the revision as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the impact to the December 31, 2020 balances, which will be revised balances refer to Note 2.in future filings.
In the second quarter of 2018, we launched and committed resources to our 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, which is further discussed in Note 17 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. The Flowserve 2.0 Transformation expenses incurred primarily consist of professional services, project management and related travel costs recorded in SG&A expenses. As of the first quarter of 2021,December 31, 2020, the Flowserve 2.0 Transformation efforts were substantially complete.
In the second 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 current business environment, with the overall objective to reduce our workforce costs. We anticipate a total investment in 2020 Realignment Program activities of approximately $90$95 million and and the majority of the charges were incurred in 2020 with the remainder to be incurred through the second quarter ofin 2021. BasedBased on the actions initiated with the 2020 Realignment Program, we estimate that we have achieved cost savings of approximately $21$78 million as of March 31,for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, with approximately $10$40 million of those savings in COS and approximately $11$38 million in SG&A. Upon completion of the 2020 Realignment Program activities, we expect full year run-rate cost savings of approximately $125 million.million. 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.

After consideration of our funded status, we currently anticipate making $20 million in contributions to our U.S. pension plan in 2021, excluding direct benefits paid. We continue to maintain an asset allocation consistent with our strategy to maximize total return, while reducing portfolio risks through asset class diversification.

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 2020 Annual Report. The critical policies, for which no significant changes have occurred in the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021, include:

•Revenue Recognition;

•Deferred Taxes, Tax Valuation Allowances and Tax Reserves;

•Reserves for Contingent Loss;

•Retirement and Postretirement Benefits; and

•Valuation of Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets.

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.

ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS
We have presented the information about pronouncements not yet implemented in Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended.

The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report are based on our current expectations, projections, estimates and assumptions. These statements are only predictions, not guarantees. Such forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. These risks and uncertainties may cause actual results to differ materially from what is forecast in such forward-looking statements and are currently, or in the future could be, amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic. Specific factors that might cause such a difference include, without limitation, the following:

•uncertainties related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and operations, financial results and financial position, our customers and suppliers, and on the global economy, including its impact on our sales;

•a portion of our bookings may not lead to completed sales, and our ability to convert bookings into revenues at acceptable profit margins;

•changes in the global financial markets and the availability of capital and the potential for unexpected cancellations or delays of customer orders in our reported backlog;

•our dependence on our customers' ability to make required capital investment and maintenance expenditures. The liquidity and financial position of our customers could impact capital investment decisions and their ability to pay in full and/or on a timely basis;

•if we are not able to successfully execute and realize the expected financial benefits from our strategic transformation, realignment and other cost-saving initiatives, our business could be adversely affected;

•risks associated with cost overruns on fixed fee projects and in accepting customer orders for large complex custom engineered products;

•the substantial dependence of our sales on the success of the oil and gas, chemical, power generation and water management industries;

•the adverse impact of volatile raw materials prices on our products and operating margins;

•economic, political and other risks associated with our international operations, including military actions, trade embargoes or changes to tariffs or trade agreements that could affect customer markets, particularly North African, Russian and Middle Eastern markets and global oil and gas producers, and non-compliance with U.S. export/reexport control, foreign corrupt practice laws, economic sanctions and import laws and regulations;

•increased aging and slower collection of receivables, particularly in Latin America and other emerging markets;

•our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly the Euro and British pound and in hyperinflationary countries such as Venezuela and Argentina;

•our furnishing of products and services to nuclear power plant facilities and other critical applications;

•potential adverse consequences resulting from litigation to which we are a party, such as litigation involving asbestos-containing material claims;

•expectations regarding acquisitions and the integration of acquired businesses;

•our relative geographical profitability and its impact on our utilization of deferred tax assets, including foreign tax credits;

•the potential adverse impact of an impairment in the carrying value of goodwill or other intangible assets;

•our dependence upon third-party suppliers whose failure to perform timely could adversely affect our business operations;

•the highly competitive nature of the markets in which we operate;

•environmental compliance costs and liabilities;

•potential work stoppages and other labor matters;

•access to public and private sources of debt financing;

•our inability to protect our intellectual property in the U.S., as well as in foreign countries;

•obligations under our defined benefit pension plans;

•our internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud;

•the recording of increased deferred tax asset valuation allowances in the future or the impact of tax law changes on such deferred tax assets could affect our operating results;

•risks and potential liabilities associated with cyber security threats; and

•ineffective internal controls could impact the accuracy and timely reporting of our business and financial results.

These and other risks and uncertainties are more fully discussed in the risk factors identified in "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in Part I of our 2020 Annual Report and Part II of this Quarterly Report, and may be identified in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our other filings with the SEC and/or press releases from time to time. All forward-looking statements included in this document are based on information available to us on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statement.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We have market risk exposure arising from changes in 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.
LIBOR
On March 5, 2021, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), which regulates the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) issued an announcement on the future cessation or loss of representativeness of LIBOR benchmark settings currently published by ICE Benchmark Administration. That announcement confirmed that LIBOR will either cease to be provided by any administrator or will no longer be representative after December 31, 2021 for all non-USD LIBOR reference rates, and for 1-Week and 2-Month USD LIBOR and after June 30, 2023 for other USD LIBOR reference rates. The U.S. Federal Reserve, in conjunction with the Alternative Reference Rate Committee, has proposed the replacement of U.S. dollar LIBOR rates with a new index calculated by short-term repurchase agreements backed by U.S. Treasury securities called the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Whether or not SOFR is generally accepted as the LIBOR replacement remains in question and the future of LIBOR at this time is uncertain. The Company’s current SeniorAmended and Restated Credit Facility agreementAgreement includes a provision for the determination of a successor LIBOR rate when appropriate by reference to the then-prevailing market convention for determining an interest rate for syndicated loans in the United States, subject to a right of the lenders thereunder to reject the application of the determined rate by written notice. While we will work with our administrative agent to incorporate a successor reference rate, there can be no assurances as to what alternative reference rates may be and whether such rates will be more or less favorable than LIBOR and any other unforeseen impacts of the potential discontinuation of LIBOR.
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. As a means of managing the volatility of foreign currency exposure with the Euro/U.S. dollar exchange rate, we entered into twothree swap agreements associated with our Euro investment in certain of our international subsidiaries. The swap agreements are designated as a net investment hedges and as of March 31,September 30, 2021,, the notional value of the swaps agreements was €288.2€423.20 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. For further discussion related to these swap agreements refer to Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. We recognized net (losses) gains (losses) associated with foreign currency translation of $(10.9)$(15.6) million and $(96.1)$19.6 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $(12.5) million and $(57.5) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, 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. As of March 31,September 30, 2021, we had a U.S. dollar equivalent of $371.3$361.3 million in aggregate notional amount outstanding in foreign exchange contracts with third parties, as compared with $388.1 million at December 31, 2020. Transactional currency gains and losses arising from transactions outside of our sites’ functional currencies and changes in fair value of non-designated foreign exchange contracts are included in our consolidated results of operations. We recognized foreign currency net (losses) gains of $(9.5)$(1.1) million and $40.4$3.3 million for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $(14.8) million and $25.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which are included in other income (ex(expenspense)e), net in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income.
Based on a sensitivity analysis at March 31,September 30, 2021, a 10% change in the foreign currency exchange rates for the threenine months ended March 31,September 30, 2021 would have impacted our net earnings by approximately $9$14 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.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.Legal Proceedings.

We are party to the legal proceedings that are described in Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in "Item 1. Financial Statements" of this Quarterly Report, and such disclosure is incorporated by reference into this "Item 1. Legal Proceedings." In addition to the foregoing, we and our subsidiaries are named defendants in certain other ordinary routine lawsuits incidental to our business and are involved from time to time as parties to governmental proceedings, all arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of lawsuits or other proceedings involving us and our subsidiaries cannot be predicted with certainty, and the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted accurately, management does not currently expect the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A.Risk Factors.

There are numerous factors that affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, reputation and/or prospects, many of which are beyond our control. In addition to other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, careful consideration should be given to "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in Part I and "Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part II of our 2020 Annual Report, which contain descriptions of significant factors that might cause the actual results of operations in future periods to differ materially from those currently projected in the forward-looking statements contained therein.
There have been no material changes in risk factors discussed in our 2020 Annual Report and subsequent SEC filings. The risks described in this Quarterly Report filed for the period ended March 31,September 30, 2021, our 2020 Annual Report and in our other SEC filings or press releases from time to time are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties are currently deemed immaterial based on management's assessment of currently available information, which remains subject to change; however, new risks that are currently unknown to us may surface in the future that materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
