Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies

The Company's significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies" of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. 2019.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

New Accounting Guidance Adopted:

In FebruaryJune 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)", which was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2019. In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities", which was adopted by the Company on January 1, 2019. Updates to the Company's accounting policies as a result of adopting ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2017-12 are discussed below.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

New Accounting Guidance Adopted:

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)." ASU 2016-02 was issued to increase transparency and comparability among entities by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about lease arrangements. The Company adopted the new leasing standard on January 1, 2019 using the cumulative-effect adjustment transition method. The Company also elected several practical expedients to not asses the following as part of adoption: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases; (2) the lease classification between finance and operating leases for any expired or existing leases; and (3) the recognition of initial direct costs for existing leases. The Company also elected to not recognize leases with a term of 12 months or less on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The adoption of the lease standard had no impact to the Company's consolidated results of operations or the captions on the consolidated statements of cash flows. The cumulative effect of the changes made to the balance sheet as of January 1, 2019 for the adoption of the new lease standard was as follows:
 Balance at December 31, 2018Effect of Accounting Change

Total Liabilities$2,802.5
$99.5
$2,902.0

(1) Due to the adoption of the new leasing standard, the Company recognized operating lease assets and corresponding operating lease liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. In conjunction with the adoption of the new leasing standard, the Company reclassified $15.3 million of lease assets related to purchase accounting adjustments from the ABC Bearings Limited ("ABC Bearings") acquisition from Other assets to Operating lease assets. These assets do not have material corresponding lease liabilities.


The Company determines if any arrangement is a lease at the inception of a contract. For leases where the Company is the lessee, it recognizes lease assets and related lease liabilities at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit interest rate. As a result, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease assets also consist of amounts for favorable or unfavorable lease terms related to acquisitions. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an operating expense while the expense for finance leases is recognized as depreciation expense and interest expense using the accelerated interest method of recognition. A lease asset and lease liability are not recorded for leases with an initial term of less than 12 months or less and the lease expenses related to these leases is recognized as incurred over the lease term.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities", which impacts both designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. ASU 2017-12 amends and clarifies the requirements to qualify for hedge accounting, removes the requirement to recognize changes in fair value from certain hedges in current earnings, and specifies the presentation of changes in fair value in the income statement for all hedging instruments. ASU 2017-12 is effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted ASU 2017-12 effective January 1, 2019, and the impact of adoption was not material to the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

New Accounting Guidance Issued and Not Yet Adopted:

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." ASU 2016-13 changes how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The new guidance will replace the current incurred loss approach with an expected loss model. The new expected credit loss impairment model will applyapplies to most financial assets measured at amortized cost and certain other instruments, including trade and other receivables, loans, held-to-maturity debt instruments, net investments in leases, loan commitments and standby letters of credit. Upon initial recognition of the exposure, the expected credit loss model requires entities to estimate the credit losses expected over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). The estimate of expected credit losses should consider historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics should be grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 does not prescribe a specific method to make the estimate, so its application will requirerequires significant judgment. ASU 2016-13 is effective for public companies in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is continuing to advance its analysis and evaluating the effect that the adoption ofadopted ASU 2016-13 will have oneffective January 1, 2020, and the impact of adoption was not material to the Company's results of operations and financial condition. Refer to Note 12 - Equity for the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2016-13.

In determining the fair value of the amounts above, the Company utilized various forms of the income, cost and market approaches depending on the asset or liability being valued. The estimation of fair value required significant judgment related to future net cash flows, discount rates, competitive trends, market comparisons and other factors. Inputs were generally determined by taking into account independent appraisals and historical data, supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions.



Note 3 - Acquisitions (continued)
The above preliminary purchase price allocation, for Diamond Chain, including the residual amount allocated to goodwill, is based on preliminary information and is subject to change as additional information concerning final asset and liability valuations is obtained. ThisThe purchase price allocation for BEKA is preliminary as a result of the continued evaluation of working capital accounts and contingent liabilities, as well as the finalization of the Company's review pertaining to a limited set of valuation calculations and inputs. The primary areas of the Diamond Chain preliminaryBEKA purchase price allocation that have not been finalized relate to the fair value of inventory, net property, plant, and equipment and other intangible assets, and the related impacts on deferred income taxes and goodwill. During the applicable measurement period, the Company will adjust assets and liabilities if new information is obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have resulted in revised estimated values of those assets or liabilities as of that date. The effect of measurement period adjustments to the estimated fair values will be reflected as if the adjustments had been completed on the acquisition date.

In addition to disaggregating revenue by segment and geography and by sales channel as shown above, the Company believes information about the timing of transfer of goods or services, type of customer and distinguishing service revenue from product sales is also relevant. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, approximately 12% and 10%, respectively, of total net sales were recognized on an over-time basis because of the continuous transfer of control to the customer, with the remainder recognized as of a point in time. Approximately 5% of total net sales represented service revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively. Finally, the United States ("U.S.") government or its contractors represented approximately 8% and 7% of total net sales during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, respectively.

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was calculated using the forecasted multi-jurisdictional annual effective tax rates to determine a blended annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the projected mix of earnings in international jurisdictions with relatively higher tax rates and unfavorable U.S. permanent differences.

The effective tax rate of 26.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was lower than the three months ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to higher discrete tax expense in the previous year for uncertain tax positions related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("U.S. Tax Reform"). The expense was partially offset by a projected increase in the mix of earnings in international jurisdictions with relatively higher tax rates.

Subsequent to March 31, 2020, the European Court of Justice issued a ruling applicable to an unrelated taxpayer that concerns the scope of countries subject to exemption on withholding tax on dividends. This ruling could cause the Company announcedto increase its accrual for uncertain tax positions for withholding taxes on certain prior year intercompany dividends made in Europe. The Company is currently evaluating the details of this case to assess its applicability to Timken and whether it had reached an agreement to acquire BEKA Lubrication ("BEKA"),will have a leading global supplier of automatic lubrication systems,material impact on the provision for approximately $165 million. With expected 2019 annual sales of approximately $135 million, BEKA serves a diverse range of industrial sectors, including wind, food and beverage, rail, on- and off-highway and other process industries. Headquarteredincome taxes in Pegnitz, Germany, BEKA has manufacturing and research and development based in Germany, and assembly facilities and sales offices around the world. This transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close during the fourthsecond quarter of this year.2020.

Inventories are valued at net realizable value, with approximately 56%59% valued on the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method and the remaining 44%41% valued on the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method. The majority of the Company's domestic inventories are valued on the LIFO method, and all of the Company's international inventories are valued on the FIFO method.

The LIFO reserve at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 20182019 was $173.3$164.9 million and $173.9$164.6 million, respectively. An actual valuation of the inventory under the LIFO method can be made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time. Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must be based on management’s estimates of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Because these calculations are subject to many factors beyond management’s control, annual results may differ from interim results as they are subject to the final year-end LIFO inventory valuation. The prior year balances have been revised to align to the current year classification of the LIFO reserve and the allowance for obsolete and surplus inventory.

Note 10 - Financing Arrangements (continued)

On June 25, 2019, the Company entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement ("Senior Credit Facility"). The Senior Credit Facility amends and restates the Company's previous credit agreement, dated as of June 19, 2015. The Senior Credit Facility is a $650.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, which matures on June 25, 2024. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company had $69.3$296.4 million of outstanding borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility, which reduced the availability under this facility to $580.7$353.6 million. The Senior Credit Facility has two financial covenants: a consolidated leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio.

On April 3, 2020, the Company borrowed an additional $350 million under the Senior Credit Facility, which is now almost fully drawn. The Company increased its borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility as a precautionary measure to increase its cash position and enhance its financial flexibility due to the uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the ongoing novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic. The additional borrowings in April under the Senior Credit Facility are currently being held on the Company’s balance sheet and may be used for general corporate purposes.

On November 1, 2019, the Company assumed certain fixed-rate debt of €16 million associated with the BEKA acquisition that matures on June 30, 2033.

On September 6, 2018, the Company issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of fixed-rate 4.50% senior unsecured notes that mature on December 15, 2028 (the "2028 Notes"). On September 11, 2018, the Company entered into a $350 million variable-rate term loan that matures on September 11, 2023 (the "2023 Term Loan"). Proceeds from the 2028 Notes and the 2023 Term Loan were used to fund the acquisitions of Apiary Investments Holding Limited ("Cone DriveDrive") and Rollon S.p.A. ("Rollon"), which closed on September 1, 2018 and September 18, 2018, respectively. On July 12, 2019, the Company amended the 2023 Term Loan agreement to, among other things, align covenants and other terms with the Senior Credit Facility.

On September 7, 2017, the Company issued €150 million aggregate principal amount of fixed-rate 2.02% senior unsecured notes that mature on September 7, 2027 (the "2027 Notes"). On September 18, 2017, the Company entered into a €100 million variable-rate term loan that matures on September 18, 2020 (the "2020 Term Loan"). During the third quarter, theThe Company repaid €23.5has paid to-date a total of €51.5 million under the 2020 Term Loan, bringing the total paid to-date to €51.5 million, which reduced the principal balance to €48.5 million as of September 30, 2019.

The Company expects to service interest and repay the remaining principal balance with cash held or generated outside the U.S.
 
At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company was in full compliance with all applicable covenants on its outstanding debt.

In the ordinary course of business, the Company utilizes standby letters of credit issued by financial institutions to guarantee certain obligations, most of which relate to insurance contracts. At March 31, 2020, outstanding letters of credit totaled $39.0 million, primarily having expiration dates within 12 months.



Note 811 - Contingencies
The Company and certain of its subsidiaries have been identified as potentially responsible parties for investigation and remediation under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), known as the Superfund, or similar state laws with respect to certain sites. Claims for investigation and remediation have been asserted against numerous other entities, which are believed to be financially solvent and are expected to fulfill their proportionate share of the obligation.
 
On December 28, 2004, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”) sent Lovejoy, Inc. ("Lovejoy") a Special Notice Letter that identified Lovejoy as a potentially responsible party, together with at least 14 other companies, at the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site, Downers Grove, DuPage County, Illinois (the “Site”). The Company acquired Lovejoy in 2016. Lovejoy’s Downers Grove property is situated within the Ellsworth Industrial Complex. The USEPA and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“IEPA”) allege there have been one or more releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, allegedly including, but not limited to, a release or threatened release on or from Lovejoy's property, at the Site. The relief sought by the USEPA and IEPA includes further investigation and potential remediation of the Site and reimbursement of response costs. Lovejoy’s allocated share of past and future costs related to the Site, including for investigation and/or remediation, could be significant. All previously pending property damage and personal injury lawsuits against Lovejoy related to the Site have been settled or dismissed.

The Company had total environmental accruals of $5.3 million and $5.5$5.2 million for various known environmental matters that are probable and reasonably estimable at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, respectively, which includes the Lovejoy matter discussed above. These accruals were recorded based upon the best estimate of costs to be incurred in light of the progress made in determining the magnitude of remediation costs, the timing and extent of remedial actions required by governmental authorities and the amount of the Company’s liability in proportion to other responsible parties.
In October 2014, the Brazilian government antitrust agency, Administrative Council for Economic Defense, or CADE, announced that it had opened an investigation of alleged antitrust violations in the bearing industry. The Company’s Brazilian subsidiary, Timken do Brasil Comercial Importadora Ltda. ("Timken do Brasil"), was included in the investigation. In May 2019, the investigation division of CADE issued a report on the alleged antitrust violations and recommended that Timken do Brasil, among others, be found to have violated certain provisions of the Brazil Competition Law. The case has now moved to the tribunal level of CADE. The Company is continuing to advance its interests in this case. Based on management's evaluation of the findings contained in the CADE investigation report, the Company recorded expense in the second quarter of 2019to establish a liability that represents management’s best estimate of the probable loss. While no assurance can be given as to the ultimate outcome of this case, the Company does not believe that the final resolution will have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or liquidity, however, the effect of any such future outcome may be material to the results of operations of any particular period in which costs in excess of amounts provided, if any, are recognized.

The Company is a defendant in a 2017 lawsuit filed in the U.S. by a former employee asserting workplace-related negligence by the Company's medical personnel. TheNo specific amount of damages has been asserted by the plaintiff
at this time. While the Company’s defense is ongoing, and, while the incurrence of a liability is not considered probable at this point, management believes themanagement’s low end of the range of the reasonably possibleprobable outcomes would beis immaterial to the Company.

In addition, the Company is subject to various other lawsuits, claims and proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company accrues costs associated with legal and non-income tax matters when they become probable and reasonably estimable. Accruals are established based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows to settle the obligations and are not reduced by any potential recoveries from insurance or other indemnification claims. Management believes that any ultimate liability with respect to these actions, in excess of amounts provided, will not materially affect the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

Product Warranties:
In addition to the contingencies above, the Company provides limited warranties on certain of its products. The product warranty liability included in "Other current liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets was $5.6$7.6 million and $7.1$7.5 million at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, respectively. The Company continues to evaluate claims raised by certain customers with respect to the performance of bearings sold into the wind energy sector. Management believes that the outcome of these claims will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position; however, the effect of any such outcome may be material to the results of operations of any particular period in which costs in excess of amounts provided, if any, are recognized.

When reviewing revenue by sales channel, the Company separates net sales to original equipment manufacturers from sales to distributors and end users. The following table presents the percent of revenue by sales channel for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively:
 Nine Months EndedNine Months Ended
Revenue by sales channelSeptember 30, 2019September 30, 2018
Original equipment manufacturers56%58%
Distribution/end users44%42%
In addition to disaggregating revenue by segment and geography and by sales channel as shown above, the Company believes information about the timing of transfer of goods or services, type of customer and distinguishing service revenue from product sales is also relevant. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, approximately 11% and 9%, respectively, of total net sales were recognized on an over-time basis because of the continuous transfer of control to the customer, with the remainder recognized as of a point in time. The payment terms with the U.S. government or its contractors, which represented approximately 8% and 7% of total net sales during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively, differ from those of non-government customers. Finally, approximately 5% and 6% of total net sales represented service revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively.

Remaining Performance Obligations:
Remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of orders meeting the definition of a contract for which work has not been performed and excludes unexercised contract options. Performance obligations having a duration of more than one year are concentrated in contracts for certain products and services provided to the U.S. government or its contractors. The aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for such contracts with a duration of more than one year was approximately $231 million at September 30, 2019.

The Company currently expects to make contributions and payments related to its global defined benefit pension plans totaling approximately $34.0 million in 2019. Approximately $24.0 million of this amount related to the 2019 payout of deferred compensation in July 2019 to a former executive officer of the Company. The payment triggered a pension remeasurement for one of the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans during the third quarter of 2019. As a result of this remeasurement, the Company recognized an actuarial loss of $7.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized actuarial losses of $4.8 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The remeasurement was required during the period as a result of lump sum payments to new retirees exceeding service and interest costs for one of the Company's U.S. defined benefit plans.

Note 15 - Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
The following table sets forth the net periodic benefit cost for the Company’s other postretirement benefit plans.

During JulyIn January 2020, the Company established a second Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association ("VEBA") trust for certain active employees’ medical benefits. The Company transferred $50 million from the existing VEBA trust to fund this new VEBA trust. The $50 million that was transferred will primarily be classified as other current assets based on the portfolio of the assets in the trust. The Company expects to fully utilize the assets of the trust in 2020 for the payment of certain active employees’ medical benefits. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had utilized $14 million of the new VEBA trust.

In 2019,, the Company announced changes to the medical plan offerings forof certain of its postretirement benefit plans, effective January 1, 2020, which will impact the benefits provided to certain retirees. ThisThe plan amendment (1)triggered a remeasurement, which resulted in a $103.5$92.8 million reduction in the postretirement benefit obligation and a corresponding pretax adjustmentamount of income recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss; and (2) triggered a remeasurementloss. Beginning in third quarter of the postretirement benefit obligation, and as a result2019, the Company recognized an actuarial loss of $9.9 million during the three months ended September 30, 2019. Starting with the three months ended September 30, 2019,began amortizing the pretax adjustment of $103.5$92.8 million will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic benefit cost (as a benefit) over the next twelve years.


Note 16 - Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income Taxes(Loss)

The Company's provision forfollowing tables present details about components of accumulated other comprehensive income taxes in interim periods is computed by applying the estimated annual effective tax rates to income or loss before income taxes for the period. In addition, non-recurring or discrete items are recorded during the period(s) in which they occur.

The income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was calculated using the forecasted multi-jurisdictional annual effective tax rates to determine a blended annual effective tax rate. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the projected mix of earnings in international jurisdictions with relatively higher tax rates and U.S. state and local income taxes. It was further impacted by additional discrete accruals recorded primarily for uncertain tax positions related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("U.S. Tax Reform").

The effective tax rate of 34.7%(loss) for the three months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, is higher than the three months ended September 30, 2018 primarily due to a projected increase in the mix of earnings in international jurisdictions with relatively higher tax rates. The effective tax rate also increased due to higher discrete tax benefits recorded in the prior year period.respectively:

Note 17 - Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be expected to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The FASB provides accounting rules that classify the inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018:2019:

Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased and are valued at the redemption value. Short-term investments are investments with maturities between four months and one year, and generally areinclude $25.1 million of held-to-maturity debt securities valued at amortized cost which approximatesas well as available-for-sale equity securities having amortized cost of $36.5 million and fair value.value of $36.0 million. A portion of the cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are valued based on net asset value. The Company uses publicly available foreign currency forward and spot rates to measure the fair value of its foreign currency forward contracts.



Note 17 - Fair Value (continued)

Additionally,In addition, the Company remeasures certain assets at fair value, using Level 3 inputs, as a result of the occurrence of triggering events such as purchase accounting for acquisitions. See Note 3 - Acquisitions for further discussion.
 
No other material assets were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, respectively.

Financial Instruments:
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and short-term borrowings are a reasonable estimate of their fair value. Due to the nature of fair value calculations for variable-rate debt, the carrying value of the Company's long-term variable-rate debt is a reasonable estimate of its fair value. The fair value of the Company’s long-term fixed-rate debt, based on quoted market prices, was $1,157.2$1,197.6 million and $1,077.5$1,185.8 million at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, respectively. The carrying value of this debt was $1,062.6$1,085.1 million and $1,070.7$1,086.5 million at September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, respectively. The fair value of long-term fixed-rate debt was measured using Level 2 inputs.

The Company does not believe it has significant concentrations of risk associated with the counterparties to its financial instruments.


Note 18 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. Forward contracts on various foreign currencies are entered into in order to manage the foreign currency exchange rate risk associated with certain of the Company's commitments denominated in foreign currencies. From time to time, interest rate swaps are used to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s fixed and floating-rate borrowings.

The Company designates certain foreign currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted revenues and certain interest rate hedges as cash flow hedges of fixed-rate borrowings.

The Company does not purchase or hold any derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. As of September 30, 2019March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2018,2019, the Company had $230.9$249.8 million and $218.8$295.7 million, respectively, of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts at notional value. Refer to Note 17 - Fair Value for the fair value disclosure of derivative financial instruments.

Cash Flow Hedging Strategy:

For certain derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges (i.e., hedging the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows that is attributable to a particular risk), the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same line item associated with the forecasted transaction and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

To protect against a reduction in the value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows resulting from export sales, the Company has instituted a foreign currency cash flow hedging program. The Company hedges portions of its forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currencies with forward contracts. When the dollar strengthens significantly against foreign currencies, the decline in the present value of future foreign currency revenue is offset by gains in the fair value of the forward contracts designated as hedges. Conversely, when the dollar weakens, the increase in the present value of future foreign currency cash flows is offset by losses in the fair value of the forward contracts. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had $80.0 million and $87.9 million, respectively, of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts at notional value that were classified as cash flow hedges.


Note 18 - Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (continued)
The maximum length of time over which the Company hedges its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecast transactions is generally eighteen months or less.


Purpose for Derivative Instruments not designated as Hedging Instruments:

For derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments, the instruments are typically forward contracts. In general, the practice is to reduce volatility by selectively hedging transaction exposures including intercompany loans, accounts payable and accounts receivable. Intercompany loans between entities with different functional currencies typically are hedged with a forward contract at the inception of the loan with a maturity date corresponding to the maturity of the loan. The revaluation of these contracts, as well as the revaluation of the underlying balance sheet items, is recorded directly to the income statement so the adjustment generally offsets the revaluation of the underlying balance sheet items to protect cash payments and reduce income statement volatility.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had $169.8 million and $207.8 million, respectively, of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts at notional value that were not designated as hedging instruments.The following table presents the impact of derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments for the three and ninethree months ended September 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019, and 2018, respectively, and theirthe related location within the Consolidated Statements of Income:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Dollars in millions, except per share data)

Overview
Introduction:
The Timken Company designs and manages a growing portfolio of engineered bearings and power transmission products. With more than a century of innovation and increasing knowledge, the Company continuously improves the reliability and efficiency of global machinery and equipment to move the world forward. The Company’s growing product and services portfolio features many strong industrial brands, such as Timken®, Fafnir®, Philadelphia Gear®, Drives®, Cone Drive®, Diamond Chain®, Drives®, Rollon®, Lovejoy®, Diamond®, BEKA® and Groeneveld®. Timken employs more than 18,000 people globally in 3542 countries. The Company operates under two reportable segments: (1) Mobile Industries and (2) Process Industries. The following further describes these business segments:
Mobile Industries serves OEM customers that manufacture off-highway equipment for the agricultural, mining and construction markets; on-highway vehicles including passenger cars, light trucks, and medium- and heavy-duty trucks; rail cars and locomotives; outdoor power equipment; rotorcraft and fixed-wing aircraft; and other mobile equipment. Beyond service parts sold to OEMs, aftermarket sales and services to individual end users, equipment owners, operators and maintenance shops are handled directly or through the Company's extensive network of authorized automotive and heavy-truck distributors.
Process Industries serves OEM and end-user customers in industries that place heavy demands on the fixed operating equipment they make or use in heavy and other general industrial sectors. This includes metals, cement and aggregate production; power generation and renewable energy sources; oil and gas extraction and refining; pulp and paper and food processing; automation and robotics; and health and critical motion control equipment. Other applications include marine equipment, gear drives, cranes, hoists and conveyors. This segment also supports aftermarket sales and service needs through its global network of authorized industrial distributors and through the provision of services directly to end users.

Timken creates value by understanding customer needs and applying its know-how to serve a broad range of customers in attractive markets and industries across the globe. The Company’s business strengths include its product technology, end-market diversity, geographic reach and aftermarket mix. Timken collaborates with OEMs to improve equipment efficiency with its engineered products and captures subsequent equipment replacement cycles by selling largely through independent channels in the aftermarket. Timken focuses its international efforts and footprint in regions of the world where strong macroeconomic factors such as urbanization, infrastructure development and sustainability create demand for its products and services.

The Company's strategy has three primary elements:
Outgrowing Our Markets.Profitable Growth. The Company intends to expand into new and existing markets by leveraging its collective
knowledge of metallurgy, friction management and mechanical power transmission to create value for Timken customers. Using
a highly collaborative technical selling approach, the Company places particular emphasis on creating unique solutions for challenging and/or demanding applications. The Company intends to grow in attractive market sectors around the world, emphasizing those spaces that are highly fragmented, demand high service and value the reliability and efficiency offered by Timken products. The Company also targets those applications that offer significant aftermarket demand, thereby providing product and services revenue throughout the equipment’s lifetime.
Operating With Excellence. Timken operates with a relentless drive for exceptional results and a passion for superior
execution. The Company embraces a continuous improvement culture that is charged with increasing efficiency,
lowering costs, eliminating waste, encouraging organizational agility and building greater brand equity to fuel future growth. This requires the Company’s ongoing commitment to attract, retain and develop the best talent across the world.
Deploying Capital Deployment to Drive Shareholder Value. The Company is intently focused on providing the highest returns
for shareholders through its capital allocation framework, which includes: (1) investing in the core business through
capital expenditures, research and development and other organic growth initiatives; (2) pursuing strategic acquisitions to broaden its portfolio and capabilities across diverse markets, with a focus on bearings, adjacent power transmission products and related services; (3) returning capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases; and (4) maintaining a strong balance sheet and sufficient liquidity. As part of this framework, the Company may also restructure, reposition or divest underperforming product lines or assets.

The following highlights the Company's recent significant strategic accomplishment:

On September 16, 2019, the Company announced it had reached an agreement to acquire BEKA, a leading global supplier of automatic lubrication systems, for approximately $165 million. With expected 2019 annual sales of approximately $135 million, BEKA serves a diverse range of industrial sectors, including wind, food and beverage, rail, on- and off-highway and other process industries. Headquartered in Pegnitz, Germany, BEKA has manufacturing and research and development based in Germany, and assembly facilities and sales offices around the world. This transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close during the fourth quarter of this year.

In addition, property losses and discrete tax items were favorable compared to the prior year, partially offset by higher interest expense, a higher tax rate, and higher net actuarial gains and losses.restructuring charges.

Outlook:
In December 2019, a COVID-19 outbreak occurred in China and later spread to other parts of the world. Throughout this pandemic, the Company has been adhering to mandates and other guidance from local governments and health authorities, including the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The Company expects 2019 full-year saleshas implemented risk mitigation plans across the enterprise to increaseprotect associates and reduce the risk of spreading the virus, while continuing to operate where permitted and to the extent possible. Timken’s main priority is the health of its employees and others in the communities where it does business.

In early-February 2020, the Company’s operations in China were shut down for approximately 5%two weeks per a government directive. Timken’s operations in China have resumed and are currently operating at near-normal levels.

Since that time, COVID-19 has spread to 6% comparedmost of the rest of the world, with 2018 primarilycountries like Italy, France, Germany, India and the United States severely impacted. Several customers in the affected countries have announced the temporary idling of their manufacturing facilities and the country of India announced a full country-wide shut-down for the month of April. Timken continues to operate and fill customer orders, but the Company has had to adjust production schedules in response to customer and government shut-downs and other changes in demand due to the benefitpandemic. Timken has also implemented cost reduction actions across the enterprise.

As a result of acquisitions, partially offset by the unfavorableevolving impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes. The Company's earnings areCOVID-19 on the economy, Timken withdrew its 2020 financial outlook provided on February 5, 2020. While the Company is not providing an expectation of full year results at this time, the Company expects that full year 2020 sales will decrease significantly in the second quarter compared to the prior year, with markets and sales expected to be higher in 2019 compared with 2018, primarily due to favorable price/mix,improve from second quarter levels over the benefitremainder of acquisitions, lower material costs, partially offset by the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes, as well as higher income tax and interest expenses.

Business Segments

The Company's reportable segments are business units that serve different industry sectors. While the segments often operate using shared infrastructure, each reportable segment is managed to address specific customer needs in these diverse market sectors. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2019, the main operating income metric used by management
to measure the financial performance of each segment was EBITDA. The Company made this change because recent acquisitions have resulted in an increased amount of purchase accounting amortization expense that affects comparability of results across periods and versus other companies. The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment is EBIT.prior to the fourth quarter of 2019 was earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT"). Segment results have been revised for all periods presented to be consistent with the new measure of segment performance. Refer to Note 135 - Segment Information in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the reconciliation of EBITEBITDA by segment to consolidated income before income taxes.

The presentation of segment results below includes a reconciliation of the changes in net sales for each segment reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to net sales adjusted to remove the effects of acquisitions and divestitures completed in 20192020 and 20182019 and foreign currency exchange rate changes. The effects of acquisitions divestitures and foreign currency exchange rate changes on net sales are removed to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage change in net sales on a comparable basis from period to period.

The following items highlight the Company's acquisitions and divestitures completed in 2019and 2018 by segment based on the customers and underlying markets served:
The Company acquired BEKA during the fourth quarter of 2019. The majority of the results for BEKA are reported in the Mobile Industries segment.

The Company has a $100 million Accounts Receivable Facility, which matures on November 30, 2021. The Accounts Receivable Facility is subject to certain borrowing base limitations and is secured by certain domestic accounts receivable of the Company.

As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company had $100.0 million in outstanding borrowings, which reduced the availability under the facility to zero.

As of September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company's consolidated interest coverage ratio was 10.410.25 to 1.0.

The interest rate under the Senior Credit Facility is variable and with a spread based on the Company's debt rating. ThisThe average rate on outstanding U.S. Dollardollar borrowings was 3.26%2.72% and the average rate on outstanding Euro borrowings was 1.00% as of September 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. In addition, the Company pays a facility fee based on the consolidated leverage ratio multiplied by the aggregate commitments of all of the lenders under the Senior Credit Facility. The Company currently carries investment-grade credit ratings with Standard and Poor's (BBB), Moody's (Baa3) and Fitch (BBB-).

Other sources of liquidity include uncommitted short-term lines of credit for certain of the Company's foreign subsidiaries, which provide for borrowings of up to approximately $261.9$263.5 million. Most of these credit lines are uncommitted. At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the Company had borrowings outstanding of $22.0$87.1 million and bank guarantees of $0.3$1.1 million, which reduced the aggregate availability under these facilities to approximately $239.6$175.3 million.

On September 11, 2018, the Company entered into the 2023 Term Loan and borrowed $350 million.

At September 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, $172.2 million of the Company's $181.4$387.5 million of cash and cash equivalents resided in jurisdictions outside the U.S. It is the Company's practice to use available cash in the U.S. to pay down its Senior Credit Facility or Accounts Receivable Facility in order to minimize interest expense. Repatriation of non-U.S. cash could be subject to taxes and some portion may be subject to governmental restrictions. Part of the Company's strategy is to grow in attractive market sectors, many of which are outside the U.S. This strategy includes making investments in facilities, equipment and potential new acquisitions. The Company plans to fund these investments, as well as meet working capital requirements, with cash and cash equivalents and unused lines of credit within the geographic location of these investments where feasible.

The Company expects that any cash requirements in excess of cash on hand and cash generated from operating activities will be met by the committed funds available under its Accounts Receivable Facility and Senior Credit Facility. Management

At September 30, 2019,Both at March 31, 2020 and after the draw on April 3, 2020, the Company was in full compliance with all applicable covenants on its outstanding debt, and the Company expects to remain in full compliance with its debt covenants. However,covenants or manage the Company may need to limit its borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility or other facilities from time to time in ordercovenant constructs so as to remain in compliance. As of September 30, 2019, the Company could have borrowed the full amounts available under the Senior Credit Facility and Accounts Receivable Facility and still would have been in compliance with its debt covenants.

The Company expects to generate strong cash from operations of approximately $525 millionflow in 2019, an increase from 2018 of approximately $193 million or 58%, as the Company anticipates higher net income2020 and lower working capital requirements. The Company expects capital expenditures of approximately $150 million in 2019, compared with $113 million in 2018.has no significant long-term debt maturities before September 2023.

Financing Obligations and Other Commitments:
During the first ninethree months of 2019,2020, the Company made cash contributions and payments of $33.3$4.8 million to its global defined benefit pension plans and $3.8$0.8 million to its other postretirement benefit plans. Approximately $24 million of the totalThe Company expects to make contributions and payments for the Company'sto its global defined benefit pension plans related to the 2019 payout of deferred compensation to a former executive officer of the Company, which triggered a pension remeasurement during the third quarter of 2019.between $11 million and $13 million in 2020. The Company expects to make additional payments of approximately $3 million and $5 million to its other postretirement benefit plans in the fourth quarter of 2019. During July 2019, the Company announced changes to the medical plan offerings for certain of its postretirement benefit plans, effective January 1, 2020, which will impact the benefits provided to certain retirees. These plan amendments triggered a remeasurement during the third quarter of 2019.2020. Excluding mark-to-market charges, the Company expects slightly lower pension and other postretirement benefits expense. Future pension and other postretirement mark-to-market charges are not accounted for in the 20192020 outlook because such amounts will not be known until the fourth quarter of 2019.2020.
 
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements with unconsolidated entities or other persons.


Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates:
The Company's financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. The Company reviews its critical accounting policies throughout the year. The Company has concluded that there have been no significant changes to its critical accounting policies or estimates, as described in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20182019, during the ninethree months ended September 30, 2019March 31, 2020.
The Company tests goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually, performing its annual impairment test as of October 1st. In each interim period, the Company assesses whether or not an indicator of impairment is present that would necessitate a goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment analysis be performed in an interim period other than during the fourth quarter. While the Company currently expects the COVID-19 pandemic will have a near term negative impact on the financial results of the Company, beginning in the second quarter of 2020, the duration and magnitude of the impact is currently not determinable. While the Company has taken a number of actions to align to the overall global decrease in demand, those actions are mainly short term in nature and designed to be quickly reassessed to align to anticipated future potential global demand. The Company has not adjusted any significant long term strategic plans or forecasts at this time. As the anticipated duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting financial impact is expected to develop further over the next few months, the Company will monitor any potential impacts on long-term forecasts that could potentially require a goodwill and indefinite-lived quantitative impairment analysis.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

OurThe information set forth in this Form 10-Q, including, without limitation, the risk factors presented below, updates should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, included a detailed discussion2019.

Work stoppages or similar difficulties could significantly disrupt our operations, reduce our revenues and materially affect our earnings.

A work stoppage at one or more of our risk factors. Therefacilities, whether caused by fire, flooding, epidemics, pandemic, including the COVID-19 outbreak, other natural disaster or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, some of our employees are represented by labor unions or works councils under collective bargaining agreements with varying durations and terms. We have experienced work stoppages recently at certain of our facilities as a result of measures meant to combat the spread of COVID-19. While these stoppages have been short-term in nature, no assurances can be made that we will not experience additional work stoppages due to government directives, employee health concerns, or conflicts with labor unions, works councils, and other similar groups in the future.

A work stoppage at one of our suppliers, whether caused by COVID-19 or otherwise, could also materially and adversely affect our operations if an alternative source of supply were not readily available. In addition, if one or more of our customers were to experience a work stoppage, whether due to COVID-19 or otherwise, that customer could halt or limit purchases of our products, which could have a material changesadverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the credit and default risk or bankruptcy of customers or suppliers as a result of work stoppages could also materially and adversely affect our operations and results.

If government imposed restrictions continue or are expanded or the COVID-19 pandemic worsens, our business could be further adversely impacted in a material way.

The global outbreak of COVID-19 has created economic demand and operational uncertainty. We have global operations, customers and suppliers, in countries most impacted by COVID-19. The COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in significant governmental measures being implemented to control the spread of COVID-19, including, among others, restrictions on travel and manufacturing operations in many regions of the world. In addition, we have implemented risk mitigation plans across the enterprise (including work-from-home policies, "social distancing," and use of personal protective equipment) to reduce the risk of spreading the virus in many of our global locations. To the extent that governments implement more restrictive mandates to combat the spread of COVID-19, or to the risk factors includedextent that the COVID-19 outbreak intensifies, we could experience additional material impacts on our short-term and long-term operations and related results of operations.

If COVID-19 continues to progress in ways that significantly disrupt the manufacturing, shipping and buying patterns of our products or the products of our customers, this may materially negatively impact our overall business as well as our operating results for the second quarter of 2020 and subsequent periods, including revenue, gross margins, operating margins, cash flows and other operating results. Our customers may also experience closures of their manufacturing facilities (or extended closures of their currently closed facilities) or inability to obtain other components necessary for the production of their products, either of which could negatively impact demand for our products. 

The full magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the extent of the total impact on the Company’s Annual Reportbusiness, financial position, results of operations or liquidity, which could be material, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time due to the rapid development and fluidity of the situation. The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic will be determined by its duration, its geographic spread, the rate and intensity of individual spread, the extent and length of business disruptions due to government mandates and health authority guidance and the overall impact on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.global economy, among other factors.
