FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “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. Forward-looking statements are statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact they use words such as “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance or events. We have also included forward looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q concerning, among other things, our strategy, goals, plans and projections regarding our financial position, liquidity and capital resources, results of operations, market position and product development. These statements are based on current estimates that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, our actual results could vary materially from our current expectations. There are a number of factors that could cause our actual results to differ from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. They include: economic recession; our ability to achieve all anticipated benefits of restructuring initiatives; our foreign operations and international markets, such as currency exchange rates, different regulatory environments, trade barriers, exchange controls, and social and political instability; changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate, including environmental, health and safety regulations; potential for future goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges; our ability to protect and defend our intellectual property; continuity of information technology infrastructure; competition; our ability to retain our management and employees; demands on management resources; availability and cost of the raw materials we use to manufacture our products; product liability claims; integrating acquisitions and achieving the expected savings and synergies; global or regional catastrophic events; demand for and market acceptance of our products; business divestitures; energy costs; commodity prices; labor relations; and implementation of environmental remediation matters. We provide additional information about many of the specific risks we face in the “Risk Factors” Section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. We can give no assurance that any goal or plan set forth in forward-looking statements can be achieved and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments.

2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements, which include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries, should be read in conjunction with our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2015 was derived from the audited balance sheet included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim statements are unaudited; however, we believe that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods were made and all adjustments are normal recurring adjustments. The results for the threesix months ended September 30,December 31, 2015 and 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal year. Unless otherwise specified, any reference to a “year” is to a fiscal year ended June 30. For example, a reference to 2016 is to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2016. When used in this Form 10-Q, unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Kennametal Inc. and its subsidiaries.

During the prior year, the Company revised its condensed consolidated statement of cash flow for the three months ended September 30, 2014 to correctly present the net cash flow provided by operating activities and effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents, resulting in an increase of $8.4 million to operating cash flows and a corresponding decrease in effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents. The Company evaluated this error and determined that the impact of the error was not material to the previously issued interim and annual financial statements.

3.NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Adopted
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance on reporting discontinued operations and disclosures of disposals of components of an entity. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Additionally, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of discontinued operations. The new guidance also requires disclosure of the pre-tax income attributable to a disposal of a significant part of an organization that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. This guidance was effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2015 and did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.2015. The transaction outlined in Note 5 was evaluated under this guidance.
Issued
In AugustNovember 2015, the FASB issued new guidance on balance sheet classification of deferred taxes. The amendments in this Update require that defersdeferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position, as opposed to the effective datecurrent practice of previously issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606.” Underseparating deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts on the new guidance, thebalance sheet. This standard is effective date for Kennametal was deferred frombeginning July 1, 2017 to July 1, 2018.2017. We are in the process of assessing the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In July 2015, the FASB issued new guidance on subsequent measurement of inventory. The amendments in this update require that inventory other than LIFO be subsequently measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, as opposed to the current practice of lower of cost or market. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO. This standard is effective for Kennametal beginning July 1, 2017. We are in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the three months ended December 31, 2015, Kennametal completed its transaction to sell all of the outstanding capital stock of: Kennametal Extrude Hone LLC and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Kennametal Stellite S.r.l. (Bellusco, Italy), Kennametal Stellite S.p.A. (Milan, Italy), Kennametal Stellite GmbH (Koblenz, Germany); and all of the assets of the businesses of: Tricon (manufacturing operations in Birmingham, Alabama; Chicago, Illinois; and Elko, Nevada), Landis (manufacturing operation in Waynesboro, Pennsylvania); and all of the assets located at the Biel, Switzerland manufacturing facility ("non-core businesses") to Madison Industries for an aggregate price of $61.1 million cash, net of cash sold and working capital settlements. A portion of the transaction proceeds were used to pay down revolver debt with the remaining balance being held as cash on hand.

The net book value of these non-core businesses immediately prior to the transaction was $182.5 million, which includes the impact of cumulative translation adjustments. We recognized a pre-tax loss on the sale of $133.3 million during the three months ended December 31, 2015 which included the impact of working capital adjustments and deal costs. Charges of $126.0 million and $7.3 million were recorded in the Infrastructure and Industrial segments, respectively. The pre-tax income attributable to the non-core businesses was assessed and determined to be immaterial for disclosure for the periods presented.

5.6.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
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. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels to prioritize the inputs used in valuations, as defined below:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable.
As of September 30,December 31, 2015, the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:

 (1) Currency derivatives are valued based on observable market spot and forward rates and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

There have been no changes in classification and transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy in the current period. The fair value of contingent consideration payable that was classified as Level 3 relates to our probability assessments of expected future milestone targets, primarily associated with product delivery, related to a previous acquisition. The contingent consideration is to be paid over the next 1512 months and is recorded in other current liabilities and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company reassessed this contingent consideration and determined that an adjustment of $1.3$1.4 million to reduce the fair value of the remaining contingent consideration was necessary during the threesix months ended September 30,December 31, 2015 due to a return of inventory to the seller during the quarter.period. No other changes in the expected outcome have occurred during the quartersix months ended September 30,December 31, 2015.
 
6.7.DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As part of our financial risk management program, we use certain derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and, therefore, hold no derivative instruments for trading purposes. We account for derivative instruments as a hedge of the related asset, liability, firm commitment or anticipated transaction, when the derivative is specifically designated and qualifies as a hedge of such items. Our objective in managing foreign exchange exposures with derivative instruments is to reduce volatility in cash flow. We measure hedge effectiveness by assessing the changes in the fair value or expected future cash flows of the hedged item. The ineffective portions are recorded in other (income) expense, (income), net.
The fair value of derivatives designated and not designated as hedging instruments in the condensed consolidated balance sheet are as follows:

Certain currency forward contracts that hedge significant cross-border intercompany loans are considered as other derivatives and therefore do not qualify for hedge accounting. These contracts are recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheet, with the offset to other (income) expense, (income), net.

CASH FLOW HEDGES
Range forward contracts (a transaction where both a put option is purchased and a call option is sold) are designated as cash flow hedges and hedge anticipated cash flows from cross-border intercompany sales of products and services. Gains and losses realized on these contracts at maturity are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and are recognized as a component of other expense (income), net when the underlying sale of products or services is recognized into earnings. The notional amount of the contracts translated into U.S. dollars at September 30,December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, was $58.2$61.0 million and $53.8 million, respectively. The time value component of the fair value of range forward contracts is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Assuming the market rates remain constant with the rates at September 30,December 31, 2015, we expect to recognize into earnings in the next 12 months $0.8$0.4 million of income on outstanding derivatives.
The following represents gains and losses related to cash flow hedges:

Restricted Stock Units – Time Vesting and Performance Vesting
Performance vesting restricted stock units are earned pro rata each year if certain performance goals are met over a three-year period and are also subject to a service condition that requires the individual to be employed by the Company at the payment date after the three-year performance period, with the exception of retirement eligible grantees, who upon retirement are entitled to receive payment for any units that have been earned, including a prorated portion in the partially completed fiscal year in which the retirement occurs. Time vesting stock units are valued at the market value of the stock on the grant date. Performance vesting stock units with a market condition are valued using a Monte Carlo model.

10.11.INVENTORIES
We used the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of valuing inventories for 4347 percent and 47 percent of total inventories at September 30,December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, respectively. Since inventory valuations under the LIFO method are based on an annual determination of quantities and costs as of June 30 of each year, the interim LIFO valuations are based on our projections of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Therefore, the interim financial results are subject to any final year-end LIFO inventory adjustments.

We had $42.15.4 million and $42.8 million of borrowings outstanding under the 2011 Credit Agreement as of September 30,December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, respectively. Borrowings under the 2011 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries. The 2011 Credit Agreement matures in April 2018.
Fixed rate debt had a fair market value of $706.3692.5 million and $698.0 million at September 30,December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, respectively.

12.13.ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain of our locations.
Superfund Sites We are involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at various sites designated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) as Superfund sites. For certain of these sites, we have evaluated the claims and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites, proceedings are in the very early stages and have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation, the timing and extent of remedial action that may be required by governmental authorities or the amount of our liability alone or in relation to that of any other PRPs.
Other Environmental Matters We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental issues. At September 30,December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, the balances of these reserves were $12.512.2 million and $12.6 million. These reserves represent anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues.
The reserves we have established for environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the costs of addressing all identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the USEPA, other governmental agencies and by the PRP groups in which we are participating. Although the reserves currently appear to be sufficient to cover these environmental liabilities, there are uncertainties associated with environmental liabilities, and we can give no assurance that our estimate of any environmental liability will not increase or decrease in the future. The reserved and unreserved liabilities for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government on these matters.
We maintain a Corporate Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Department to monitor compliance with environmental regulations and to oversee remediation activities. In addition, we have designated EHS coordinators who are responsible for each of our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EHS Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we review financial provisions and reserves for environmental contingencies and adjust these reserves when appropriate.

13.14.INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rates for the three months ended September 30,December 31, 2015 and 2014 were negative 292.829.7 percent (benefit on a loss) and 12.7 percent (provision on a loss), respectively. The effective income tax rates for the six months ended December 31, 2015 and 26.52014 were 27.7 percent (benefit on a loss) and 20.1 percent (provision on income)a loss), respectively. The change in both periods was primarily driven by the asset impairment charges recorded in the current and prior year quarters, the tax impact on the sale of certain non-core businesses in the current quarter, includes a discrete tax charge of $4.2 million associatedlower relative U.S. current year earnings compared with the transaction specified in Note 19 which relates to a change in assertion with respect to a portionrest of our foreign subsidiaries’ undistributed earnings, whichthe world where the tax rates are no longer considered permanently reinvested.

14.15.EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while diluted earnings per share is calculated to reflect the potential dilution that would occur related to the issuance of capital stock under stock option grants and restricted stock units. The difference between basic and diluted earnings per share relates solely to the effect of capital stock options and restricted stock units.

For the three and six months ended September 30,December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the effect of unexercised capital stock options and unvested restricted stock units was anti-dilutive as a result of a net loss in the periodperiods and therefore has been excluded from diluted shares outstanding as well as from the diluted earnings per share calculation. For purposes

A summary of determining the number of diluted shares outstanding for the three months ended September 30, 2014, weighted average shares outstanding for basic earnings per share calculations were increased due solely to the dilutive effect of unexercised capital stock options and unvested restricted stock units by 0.8 million shares.

17.18.GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired companies. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested at least annually for impairment. We perform our annual impairment tests during the June quarter in connection with our annual planning process, unless there are impairment indicators based on the results of an ongoing cumulative qualitative assessment that warrant a test prior to that. We evaluate the recoverability of goodwill for each of our reporting units by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying value. The fair values of our reporting units are determined using a combination of a discounted cash flow analysis and market multiples based upon historical and projected financial information. We apply our best judgment when assessing the reasonableness of the financial projections used to determine the fair value of each reporting unit. We evaluate the recoverability of indefinite-lived intangible assets using a discounted cash flow analysis based on projected financial information. This evaluation is sensitive to changes in market interest rates and other external factors.

Identifiable assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment wheneverwhen events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

2016 December Quarter Impairment Charge
Late in the December quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company experienced a further unexpected deterioration in customer demand in many of its end markets and certain geographies. Industrial production indices in the US and China have declined, as well as further reductions in mining and oil and gas activity. In view of these declines and the significant impact on our near term financial forecasts as well as a significant and sustained decline in the Company’s stock price, we determined an interim impairment test of our goodwill and other long-lived assets of our Industrial and Infrastructure reporting units was required. As a result of this interim test, we recorded a preliminary non-cash pre-tax impairment charge during the three months ended December 31, 2015 of $106.1 million in the Infrastructure segment, of which $105.7 million was for goodwill and $0.4 million was for an indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset. We also recorded a preliminary non-cash pre-tax impairment charge during the three months ended December 31, 2015 of $2.3 million in the Industrial segment for an indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset. These impairment charges are recorded in restructuring and asset impairment charges in our condensed consolidated statements of income. There is $298.0 million of goodwill at the Industrial reporting unit. The fair value exceeds the carrying value by approximately 70 percent, a decrease of approximately 20 percentage points from the fiscal 2015 annual impairment valuation. The Infrastructure reporting unit goodwill impairment charge is preliminary and subject to finalization of fair values related to intangibles and property, plant and equipment, which we expect to complete in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. The Infrastructure segment has no remaining goodwill recorded.

During the December quarter, we also performed a preliminary review of our identifiable assets with finite lives and preliminarily determined that the assets were not impaired. This review is subject to finalization using consistent assumptions as used in our aforementioned 2016 December quarter goodwill impairment valuation, which we expect to complete in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.

Divestiture Impact on Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
During the three months ended December 31, 2015, we completed the sale of non-core businesses, see Note 5. As a result of this transaction, goodwill decreased by $1.1 million and $6.5 million in our Industrial and Infrastructure segments, respectively. These decreases are recorded in the loss on divestiture account in our condensed consolidated statements of income.

2015 December Quarter Impairment Charge
As previously disclosed, we recorded a non-cash pre-tax impairment charge during the three months ended December 31, 2014 of $376.5 million in the Infrastructure segment, of which $375.0 million was for goodwill and $1.5 million was for an indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset.

The further acceleration or extended persistence of the current downturn in the global end markets could have a further negative impact on our business and financial performance. We cannot provide assurance that we will achieve all of the anticipated benefits from restructuring actions we have taken and will continue to take. If we are unable to effectively restructure our operations in the light of evolving market conditions, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We are currently exploring strategic alternatives for one of our non-core Infrastructure businesses. The estimated net book value of the business is approximately $40 million as of September 30,December 31, 2015. As the strategic direction has not yet been determined for this business, the business is classified as held and used, and the Company cannot determine if additional impairment charges will be incurred.
On October 30, 2015, we signed a definitive agreement with Madison Industries to sell all of the outstanding capital stock of: Kennametal Extrude Hone Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Kennametal Stellite S.r.l. (Bellusco, Italy), Kennametal Stellite S.p.A. (Milan, Italy), Kennametal Stellite GmbH (Koblenz, Germany); and all of the assets of the businesses of: Tricon (manufacturing operations in Birmingham, Alabama; Chicago, Illinois; and Elko, Nevada), Landis (manufacturing operation in Waynesboro, Pennsylvania); and all of the assets located at the Biel, Switzerland manufacturing facility (non-core businesses), see Note 19. Long-lived assets are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable. The following factors were assessed when considering whether an impairment test must be completed: there has not been a significant change or decrease in the market price of the asset groups; there has been no change to the extent or manner in which the asset groups are being used or in their physical condition; there have been no adverse changes in legal factors or in the business climate that would affect the value of the long-lived assets subsequent to the Infrastructure impairment charges taken in fiscal 2015; and there is not a current period operating or cash flow loss nor has there been a history of operating or cash flow losses or projected continued losses associated with the asset groups. In addition, we have not noted any other indicators that would require an impairment test. Based on these factors, we concluded that an impairment test is not required.

As discussed in the 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we recorded non-cash pre-tax goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges in the Infrastructure segment during the most recent completed fiscal year. Therefore, as of the date of the last impairment test, the Infrastructure reporting unit had a fair value that approximates carrying value. Financial projections are not deteriorating from the projections used in our original testing in the prior year. Thus, we do not see a risk of impairment at this time for Infrastructure under the “held and used” model. Goodwill at the Industrial reporting unit is continues to meet Step 1 of the impairment test since fair value exceeded the carrying value by approximately 90 percent as of the date of the last impairment test.

Our sales of $555.4524.0 million for the quarter ended September 30,December 31, 2015 decreased 2022 percent compared to sales for the quarter ended September 30,December 31, 2014. Operating incomeloss was $6.6$234.0 million, compared to $61.0$333.8 million in the prior year quarter. Our operating results were negatively impacted by the loss on divestiture, organic sales decline, lower fixed cost absorption, unfavorable mix and unfavorable currency exchange, offset partially by lower goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges, incremental restructuring benefits and lower raw material costs.

During the quarter the Company completed the sale of several non-core businesses related to certain castings, steel-plate fabrication and deburring for an aggregate price of approximately $70 million prior to working capital adjustments, or $61.1 million including working capital adjustments of approximately $9 million. Annual sales for these non-core businesses were approximately $220 million. A portion of the transaction proceeds were used to pay down revolver debt with the remaining balance being held as cash on hand. The transaction resulted in a pre-tax loss on the sale of approximately $133.3 million.

We reported current quarter loss per diluted share of $0.08,$2.12, which included $0.14includes $1.20 per share of loss on divestiture, $0.98 per share of goodwill and other intangible assets impairment charges and $0.08 per share of restructuring and related charges and $0.08 per share of divestiture-related charges.

We generated cash flow from operating activities of $38.7104.5 million and $135.3 million during the threesix months ended September 30, 2015.December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The decrease is due primarily to lower cash earnings, net of tax, partially offset by improved working capital management. Capital expenditures were $37.261.2 million and $54.7 million during the quarter.six months ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

We invested further in technology and innovation to continue delivering a high level of new products to our customers. Research and development expenses included in operating expense totaled $10.0$10.3 million and $20.3 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2015.December 31, 2015, respectively.

The permanent savings that we are realizing from restructuring are the result of programs that we have undertaken over the past 2427 months. Pre-tax benefits from these restructuring actions reached approximately $21$19 million in the current quarter due to rationalization of certain manufacturing facilities and employment and cost reduction programs, of which approximately $16$13 million were incremental to the same quarter one year ago. Approximate savings since inception of restructuring programs reached $77 million in the quarter.

GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was $140.8 million, a decrease of $58.7 million from $199.5 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to organic sales decline leading to lower fixed cost absorption, unfavorable currency exchange, unfavorable business mix and one month less of gross profit due to the divestiture of non-core businesses, partially offset by lower raw material costs and restructuring benefits. The gross profit margin for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was 26.9 percent, as compared to 29.5 percent generated in the prior year quarter.
Gross profit for the six months ended December 31, 2015 was $292.0 million, a decrease of $125.5 million from $417.6 million in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to organic sales decline leading to lower fixed cost absorption, unfavorable currency exchange and unfavorable business mix, partially offset by restructuring benefits and lower raw material costs. The gross profit margin for the six months ended December 31, 2015 was 27.1 percent, as compared to 30.5 percent generated in the prior year period.

OPERATING EXPENSE
Operating expense for the three months ended December 31, 2015 decreased $13.9 million or 10.1 percent to $123.6 million as compared to $137.5 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to favorable foreign currency exchange impacts of $7.9 million, restructuring benefits and continued cost reduction actions of approximately $8 million and divestiture impact of $1.9 million.
Operating expense for the six months ended December 31, 2015 decreased $33.1 million or 11.6 percent to $252.8 million as compared to $285.9 million in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to favorable foreign currency exchange impacts of $17.9 million, restructuring benefits and continued cost reduction actions of approximately $15 million and divestiture impact of $2.1 million, offset partially by higher restructuring related charges of $2.3 million.

RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

SALES
Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2015 were $555.4 million, a decrease of $139.6 million or 20 percent, from $694.9 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in sales was driven by organic decline of 13 percent and unfavorable currency exchange of 7 percent. Excluding the impact of currency exchange, sales decreased by approximately 31 percent in energy, approximately 13 percent in general engineering, approximately 8 percent in earthworks, approximately 6 percent in transportation and approximately 4 percent in aerospace and defense markets. On a regional basis, sales decreased 22 percent in the Americas, 8 percent in Asia and 1 percent in Europe.

GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $151.2 million, a decrease of $66.9 million from $218.1 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to organic sales decline leading to lower fixed cost absorption, unfavorable business mix with a comparatively lower percentage of Industrial higher margin sales, unfavorable currency exchange and restructuring related charges, partially offset by restructuring benefits. The gross profit margin for the three months ended September 30, 2015 was 27.2 percent, as compared to 31.4 percent generated in the prior year quarter.

OPERATING EXPENSE
Operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015 decreased $19.2 million or 13.0 percent to $129.2 million as compared to $148.5 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to favorable foreign currency exchange impacts of $10.0 million, restructuring benefits and continued cost reduction actions, offset partially by higher restructuring related charges of $2.3 million.

RESTRUCTURING AND RELATED CHARGES
We have recorded restructuring and related charges of $15.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Of this amount, restructuring charges totaled $9.1 million. Restructuring-related charges of $1.6 million were recorded in cost of goods sold and $4.4 million in operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2015. Total restructuring and related charges since the inception of our restructuring plans through September 30, 2015 were $92.3 million. See Note 7 in our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Note 7).
We have recorded restructuring and related charges of $7.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. Of this amount, restructuring charges totaled $1.9 million, of which $0.3 million were charges related to inventory disposals and were recorded in cost of goods sold. Restructuring-related charges of $3.4 million were recorded in cost of goods sold and $2.1 million in operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2014. See Note 7.
Phase 1
We are implementing restructuring actions to achieve synergies across Kennametal as a result of the TMBTungsten Materials Business (TMB) acquisition by consolidating operations among both organizations, reducing administrative overhead and leveraging the supply chain. These restructuring actions are expected to be completed by the end of fiscal 2016 and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures.
Phase 2
We are implementing restructuring actions to streamline the Company's cost structure. These initiatives are expected to enhance operational efficiencies through the rationalization of certain manufacturing facilities as well as other employment and cost reduction programs. These restructuring actions are expected to be completed by December of fiscal 2017 and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures.
Phase 3
We are implementing restructuring actions to further enhance operational efficiencies through an enterprise-wide cost reduction program as well as the consolidation of certain manufacturing facilities. These restructuring actions are expected to be completed by March of fiscal 2017 and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures.
Asset Impairment Charges
We recorded non-cash pre-tax asset impairment charges of $108.5 million and $376.5 million during the three months ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. See Note 18 in our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Note 18).
The further acceleration or extended persistence of the current downturn in the global end markets could have a further negative impact on our business and financial performance. We cannot provide assurance that we will achieve all of the anticipated benefits from restructuring actions we have taken and will continue to take. If we are unable to effectively restructure our operations in the light of evolving market conditions, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We are currently exploring strategic alternatives for one of our non-core Infrastructure businesses. The estimated net book value of the business is approximately $40 million as of December 31, 2015. As the strategic direction has not yet been determined for this business, the business is classified as held and used, and the Company cannot determine if additional impairment charges will be incurred.

For the three months ended December 31, 2015, Industrial sales decreased by 16 percent due to organic decline of 9 percent and unfavorable currency exchange of 7 percent. Excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased approximately 31 percent in energy, approximately 9 percent in general engineering, approximately 5 percent in transportation and approximately 3 percent in aerospace and defense. Energy end market activity continued to be weak, adversely impacting the general engineering end market where the Company believes there was destocking in the indirect channel, particularly in the Americas. Lower sales activity in the transportation end market was also impacted by destocking in Asia. On a segment regional basis excluding the impact of divestiture and currency exchange, sales decreased 15 percent in the Americas and 14 percent in Asia, partially offset by a 1 percent increase in Europe. The sales decrease in the Americas was primarily driven by the performance in the energy and general engineering end markets and to a lesser extent the transportation end market, partially offset by a slight increase in aerospace and defense. The sales decrease in Asia was primarily driven by the energy, general engineering and transportation end markets. The sales increase in Europe was primarily driven by slight increases in general engineering and transportation, partially offset by a decline in aerospace and defense and energy end markets.

For the three months ended September 30,December 31, 2015, Industrial operating income decreased by $34.4 million, driven by organic sales decline, lower fixed cost absorption, loss on divestiture of $7.3 million, unfavorable currency exchange, intangible asset impairment of $2.3 million and unfavorable business mix, offset partially by an increase in restructuring program benefits of $9.1 million and lower raw material costs. Industrial operating margin was 2.4 percent compared with 11.2 percent in the prior year.

For the six months ended December 31, 2015, Industrial sales decreased by 17 percent due to unfavorable currency exchange of 9 percent and organic decline of 8 percent. Excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased approximately 3231 percent in energy, approximately 9 percent in general engineering, approximately 5 percent in transportation and approximately 2 percent in aerospace and defense. Energy end market activity continued to be weak, particularly in oil and gas as rig counts decline, declines in U.S. and China coal mining, as well as declines in process end markets, impacting the general engineering end market where the Company believes there was destocking in the indirect channel, particularly in the Americas. Lower sales activity in the transportation end market was driven by lower light vehicle production levels in China.China and overall destocking in Asia. On a segment regional basis excluding the impact of divestiture and currency exchange, sales decreased 15 percent in the Americas, 610 percent in Asia and 1 percentremained flat in Europe. The sales decrease in the Americas was primarily driven by the performance in the energy, general engineering and transportation end markets and to a lesser extent the aerospace and defense.

Excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased by approximately 3134 percent in energy, approximately 2423 percent in general engineering and approximately 818 percent in earthworks. The continued weakening in global demand for energy resources and the related over-supply of these commodities, coupled with the economic downturn in Asia, particularly China, has had a significant impact on demand for the Company's products. This reduced demand has been most severe in the North American region with the Company's concentration in oil and gas and underground mining markets. On a segment regional basis excluding the impact of divestiture and currency exchange, sales decreased 28 percent in the Americas, 10 percent in Europe and 9 percent in Asia. The sales decrease in the Americas was driven by the performance in the energy, general engineering and earthworks end markets.

The sales decrease in Asia was driven primarily by the general engineering and earthworks end markets offset partially by an increase in the energy end market.

For the three months ended December 31, 2015, Infrastructure operating loss was $237.7 million compared to operating loss of $371.9 million for the prior year period. Operating results for the current period increased by $134.2 million, driven by lower impairment charges in the current verses prior year period. See Note 18. The current quarter also had a loss on divestiture for the sale of non-core businesses of $126.0 million, see Note 5. In addition, operating results were negatively impacted by lower organic sales, lower fixed cost absorption and unfavorable business mix, offset partially by an increase in restructuring program benefits of $3.6 million and lower raw material costs.

For the six months ended December 31, 2015, Infrastructure sales decreased by 27 percent, due to a 20 percent organic sales decline, a 4 percent unfavorable currency exchange impact and a 3 percent decline due to divestiture. Excluding the impact of currency exchange and divestiture, sales decreased by approximately 33 percent in energy, approximately 26 percent in general engineering and approximately 13 percent in earthworks.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash flow from operations is the primary source of funding for capital expenditures and internal growth. Year to date September 30,December 31, 2015 cash flow provided by operating activities was $38.7104.5 million, driven by working capital improvements.improvements and cash earnings, partially offset by a decrease in taxes payable and lump sum payments to several terminated Executive Retirement Plan participants.
 
Our five-year, multi-currency, revolving credit facility (2011 Credit Agreement) is used to augment cash from operations and as an additional source of funds. The 2011 Credit Agreement permits revolving credit loans of up to $600.0 million for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. The 2011 Credit Agreement allows for borrowings in U.S. dollars, euro, Canadian dollars, pound sterling and Japanese yen. Interest payable under the 2011 Credit Agreement is based upon the type of borrowing under the facility and may be (1) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, (2) the greater of the prime rate or the Federal Funds effective rate plus an applicable margin, or (3) fixed as negotiated by us. The 2011 Credit Agreement matures in April 2018. We had $42.1$5.4 million of borrowings outstanding on our 2011 Credit Agreement as of September 30,December 31, 2015.

The 2011 Credit Agreement requires us to comply with various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including two financial covenants: a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as those terms are defined in the agreement). We were in compliance with all covenants as of September 30,December 31, 2015. For the threesix months ended September 30,December 31, 2015, average daily borrowings outstanding under the 2011 Credit Agreement were approximately $45.3$30.4 million. Borrowings under the 2011 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries.

The primary drivers for the decrease were a decrease in goodwill of $2.3$119.4 million and a decrease in other intangible assets of $8.5$70.6 million. The change in goodwill was due to a goodwill impairment charge of $105.7 million in the Infrastructure segment, $7.5 million of goodwill written off as part of the sale of non-core businesses and $6.0 million of unfavorable currency exchange.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain of our locations.

Superfund Sites We are involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at various sites designated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) as Superfund sites. For certain of these sites, we have evaluated the claims and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites, proceedings are in the very early stages and have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation, the timing and extent of remedial action that may be required by governmental authorities or the amount of our liability alone or in relation to that of any other PRPs.

Other Environmental Matters We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental issues. At September 30,December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, the balances of these reserves were $12.5$12.2 million and $12.6 million, respectively. These reserves represent anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues.

Item 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)



The reserves we have established for environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the costs of addressing all identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the USEPA, other governmental agencies, and by the PRP groups in which we are participating. Although the reserves currently appear to be sufficient to cover these environmental liabilities, there are uncertainties associated with environmental liabilities, and we can give no assurance that our estimate of any environmental liability will not increase or decrease in the future. The reserved and unreserved liabilities for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government on these matters.

We maintain a Corporate Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Department, to monitor compliance with environmental regulations and to oversee remediation activities. In addition, we have designated EHS coordinators who are responsible for each of our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EHS Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we review financial provisions and reserves for environmental contingencies and adjust these reserves when appropriate.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a description of new accounting standards.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes to our market risk exposures since June 30, 2015.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company's management evaluated, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). The Company's disclosure controls were designed to provide a reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, the controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the controls' stated goals. Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance at September 30,December 31, 2015 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
