Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, ~~2017~~2018

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by Rexnord Corporation ~~("Rexnord"~~(“Rexnord” or the "Company") in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP") pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, ~~2018.~~2019. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal ~~2017~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, the net assets of the Company’s VAG business included within the Water Management platform met the criteria to be classified as “held for sale” and, in accordance with the authoritative guidance, the operating results of the VAG business are reported as discontinued operations in all periods presented. The condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the current and prior periods presented have not been adjusted to separately disclose cash flows related to discontinued operations. See Note 4, Discontinued Operations, for further information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August ~~2017, the~~2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2018-14, Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans ("ASU 2018-14"), which updates the standard to remove disclosures that no longer are considered cost beneficial, clarifies the specific requirements of disclosures, and adds disclosure requirements identified as relevant. ASU 2018-14 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2021 on a retroactive basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement ("ASU 2018-13"), which modifies the disclosure requirements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2020. Amendments related to changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty will be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments will be applied

retrospectively to all periods presented upon the effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("ASU 2018-02"), which gives entities the option to reclassify stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. Consequently, the amendments eliminate the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and are intended to improve the usefulness of information reported to financial statement users. ASU 2018-02 is effective for the Company's fiscal 2020 and interim periods included therein, and is to be applied either in the period of adoption or on a retrospective basis to each period affected. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance and has not determined whether it will elect to reclassify stranded amounts; however, the adoption of ASU 2018-02 is not expected to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging - Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities("ASU 2017-12"), which expands and refines hedge accounting for both non-financial and financial risk components and aligns the recognition and presentation of the effects of the hedging instrument and the hedged item in the financial statements. ASU 2017-12 is effective for the beginning of the Company's fiscal 2020, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In ~~January 2017, the the FASB issued ASU 2017-04,~~ ~~Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment~~ ("ASU 2017-04"). The amendments in ASU 2017-04 allow companies to apply a one-step quantitative test and record the amount of goodwill impairment as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for the beginning of the Company's fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted, and must be applied prospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the timing of adoption; however, it does not believe the adoption of ASU 2017-04 will have material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

~~In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,~~ ~~Leases (Topic 842)~~ ("ASU 2016-02''), which requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the balance sheets. ASU 2016-02 is effective beginning for the Company's fiscal 2020 and interim periods included therein on a modified retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

~~In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11,~~ ~~Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory~~ ("ASU 2015-11"). ASU 2015-11 requires inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value, which is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Under existing guidance, net realizable value is one of several calculations needed to measure inventory at lower of cost or market and as such, the new guidance reduces the complexity in measurement. The Company adopted ASU No. 2015-11 prospectively effective April 1, 2017 and there was no impact to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost (“ASU 2017-07”),which changes how employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other postretirement benefit plans present the net periodic benefit cost in the income statement. The new guidance requires the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost to be presented in the same income statement line item(s) as other employee compensation costs arising from services rendered during the period with only the service cost component eligible for capitalization in assets. Other components of the net periodic benefit cost are to be stated separately from the line item(s) that includes the service cost and outside of operating income. The ~~standard~~Company adopted ASU 2017-07 on April 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis, which resulted in the reclassification of certain amounts from “Cost of sales” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses” to “Other income, net” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As a result, prior period amounts impacted have been revised accordingly. The adoption of ASU 2017-07 resulted in the reclassification of $0.8 million and $1.5 million of net periodic benefit credits previously recorded within "Costs of sales" to "Other income, net" for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. The adoption also resulted in a reclassification of $0.1 million and $0.2 million of net periodic benefit credits previously recorded within "Selling, general and administrative expenses," to "Other income, net" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, respectively.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02''), which requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the balance sheets. ASU 2016-02 is ~~required to be adopted~~effective beginning for ~~annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that annual period, which is~~ the Company's fiscal ~~year 2019.~~2020 and interim periods included therein on a modified retrospective basis. The ~~amendment is~~Company expects the new lease standard to ~~be applied retrospectively. The Company~~increase its total assets and liabilities; however, it is currently evaluating the magnitude of the impact ~~this guidance will have~~ on its consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09")~~, now referred to as Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606 ("ASC 606"),~~ in order to develop a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The guidance specifies that revenue should be recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration the company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The guidance provides a five-step process that entities should follow in order to achieve that core principal. ~~ASC 606 will be~~The Company adopted ASU 2014-09 effective ~~for the Company on~~ April 1, 2018. Companies can use either a full retrospective or modified retrospective method to adopt the standard. Under the full retrospective method, the requirements of the new standard are applied to contracts for each prior reporting period presented and the cumulative effective of applying the standard is recognized in the earliest period presented. Under the modified retrospective method, prior periods are not updated to be presented on an accounting basis that is consistent with information for fiscal 2019. Rather, a cumulative adjustment for the effects of applying the new standard to periods prior to fiscal 2019 is recorded to retained earnings as of April 1, 2018. The Company expects to adopt the new standard2018, using the modified retrospective ~~approach.~~

The Company is assessing the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements by reviewing its current accounting policies and practices, including detailed reviews of customer contracts, to identify potential differences that would result from applying the requirements of the new standard to its revenue contracts. In addition, ASC 606 will requiremethod. See more ~~comprehensive disclosures about revenue streams and contracts with customers. The Company is currently evaluating potential changes to its processes,~~ information ~~systems and internal controls~~ related to the ~~preparation~~adoption of ~~disclosures required under ASC 606. The Company will provide additional disclosure as its ongoing assessment progresses.~~

2. Acquisitions

Fiscal Year ~~2017 Acquisitions~~2019

On ~~June 1, 2016,~~September 24, 2018, the Company acquired ~~Cambridge International Holdings Corp.~~certain assets associated with the design and distribution of various roof drains, spouts and flow sensors for institutional, commercial and industrial buildings for $2.0 million. The acquisition of these assets added complementary product lines to the Company's existing Water Management platform and was accounted for as a business combination. The acquisition of these assets did not materially affect the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations or financial position.

Fiscal Year 2018

On February 9, 2018, the Company acquired Centa Power Transmission (Centa Antriebe Kirschey GmbH) ("~~Cambridge"~~Centa"), a leading manufacturer of premium flexible couplings and drive shafts for industrial, marine, rail and power generation applications. The preliminary purchase price, excluding transaction costs and net of cash acquired, was $129.7 million plus assumed debt. The purchase price is comprised of $123.6 million paid at closing and $6.1 million of deferred purchase price payable in fiscal 2020. The preliminary cash purchase price is subject to customary post-closing adjustments for variances between estimated asset and liability targets and actual acquisition date net assets. Cash payments made after the acquisition date are settled in Euros based on prevailing exchange rates at the time of payment. Centa, headquartered in Haan, Germany, added complementary product lines to the Company's existing Process & Motion Control platform. In completing the acquisition of Centa, the Company also acquired two previously established joint venture relationships. The Company now owns a non-controlling interest in each of the joint ventures and therefore accounts for these investments utilizing the equity method.

On October 4, 2017, the Company acquired World Dryer Corporation (“World Dryer”) for a cash purchase price of ~~$213.4 million. The purchase price consisted of an enterprise value of $210.0~~$50.0 million, excluding transaction costs and net of cash ~~acquired, plus additional consideration~~acquired. World Dryer is a leading global manufacturer of ~~$3.4 million related~~commercial electric hand dryers. This acquisition added complementary product lines to the acquisition of certain tax benefits and real property classified as held for sale at the acquisition date. Cambridge, with operations in Cambridge, Maryland and Matamoros, Mexico, is one of the world's largest suppliers of metal conveying and engineered woven metal solutions, primarily used in food processing end markets, as well as in architectural, packaging and filtration applications. The acquisition of Cambridge expanded the Company's ~~presence in consumer-driven end markets in the Process & Motion Control~~existing Water Management platform.

3. Restructuring and Other Similar Charges

During fiscal ~~2018,~~2019, the Company ~~has~~ continued to execute various restructuring actions. These initiatives were implemented to drive efficiencies and reduce operating costs while also modifying the Company's footprint to reflect changes in the markets it serves, the impact of acquisitions on the Company's overall manufacturing capacity and the refinement of its overall product portfolio. These restructuring actions primarily resulted in workforce reductions, lease termination costs, and other facility rationalization costs. Management expects to continue executing initiatives and select product-line rationalizations to optimize its operating margin and manufacturing ~~footprint, as well as select product-line rationalizations.~~footprint. As such, the Company expects further expenses related to workforce reductions, potential impairment or accelerated depreciation of assets, lease termination costs, and other facility rationalization costs. The Company's restructuring plans are preliminary and related expenses are not yet estimable.

In connection with the ongoing supply chain optimization and footprint repositioning initiatives, the Company has taken several actions to consolidate existing manufacturing facilities and rationalize its product offerings. These actions require the Company to assess whether the carrying amount of impacted long-lived assets will be recoverable as well as whether the remaining useful lives require adjustment. As a result, the Company recognized accelerated depreciation of $1.2 million and $2.5 million during the three months and six ended September 30, 2018, and zero and $1.0 million during the three and six months ended ~~ended~~ September 30, ~~2017, respectively. The Company recognized accelerated depreciation of $0.8 million and $1.4 million during the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, respectively.~~2017. Accelerated depreciation is recorded within Cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

4. Discontinued Operations

During the first quarter of fiscal ~~2016,~~2019, the Board of Directors approved a plan to sell the net assets of the Company’s VAG business included within the Water Management platform. Going forward the Company ~~decided~~plans to ~~exit product lines sold under~~focus and build its Water Management platform around its Zurn specification-grade commercial plumbing products, which represents a strategic shift that has a major impact on the ~~RHF tradename~~Company's operations and financial results. As a result, in accordance with the authoritative guidance, the operating results of the VAG business are reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented. The assets and liabilities of the VAG business remaining as of September 30, 2018 are presented as current assets and current liabilities held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On October 5, 2018, the Company ~~completed~~entered into a definitive sale and purchase agreement (the "Agreement") to sell the ~~exit~~Company's VAG business. The transaction is anticipated to close in the third quarter of the ~~RHF product line~~Company's fiscal 2019 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including antitrust approval in ~~fiscal 2017.~~Germany and Austria. Based on the terms of the Agreement, the Company anticipates receiving approximately $25 million of cash proceeds upon closing, subject to customary working capital and cash balance adjustments at closing. The ~~Company evaluated the requirements~~Agreement also provides for the ~~presentation~~Company to receive contingent consideration of ~~discontinued operations~~up to an additional $20 million based on the attainment of Earn-out EBITDA, as defined in the Agreement, in the Company’s fiscal years ending March 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021. Based on the estimated cash proceeds the Company expects it will receive in connection with the ~~decision~~Agreement less the expected costs incurred in connection with the sale, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $82.0 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to ~~exit~~reduce the carrying amount of the VAG business to its ~~flow-control gate product line~~estimated fair value less costs to sell as of September 30, 2018.

5. Revenue Recognition

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is the unit of ~~$0.3 million~~account in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and ~~$1.9 million~~revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied. For the majority of the Company's product sales, revenue is recognized at a point-in-time when control of the product is transferred to the customer, which generally occurs when the product is shipped from the Company's manufacturing facility to the customer. When contracts include multiple products to be delivered to the customer, generally each product is separately priced and is determined to be distinct within the context of the contract. Other than a standard assurance-type warranty that the product will conform to agreed-upon specifications, there are generally no other significant post-shipment obligations. The expected costs associated with standard warranties continues to be recognized as an expense when the products are sold.

When the contract provides the customer the right to return eligible products or when the customer is part of a sales rebate program, the Company reduces revenue at the point of sale using current facts and historical experience by using an estimate for expected product returns and rebates associated with the transaction. The Company adjusts these estimates at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration that is expected to be received changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. Accordingly, an increase or decrease to revenue is recognized at that time.

Sales and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. The Company has elected to recognize the cost for freight and shipping when control of products has transferred to the customer as a component of cost of sales in the ~~three~~condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company classifies shipping and handling fees billed to customers as net sales and the corresponding costs are classified as cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Contract Balances

For substantially all of the Company's Process & Motion Control and Water Management product sales, the customer is billed 100% of the contract value when the product ships and payment is generally due 30 days from shipment. Certain contracts include longer payment periods; however, the Company has elected to utilize the practical expedient in which the Company will only recognize a financing component to the sale if payment is due more than one year from the date of shipment.

The Company receives payment from customers based on the contractual billing schedule and specific performance requirements established in the contract. Billings are recorded as accounts receivable when an unconditional right to the contractual consideration exists. Contract assets arise when the Company performs by transferring goods or services to a customer before the customer pays consideration, or before the customer’s payment is due. A contract liability exists when the Company has received consideration or the amount is due from the customer in advance of revenue recognition. Contract liabilities and contract assets are recognized in Other current liabilities and Receivables, net, respectively, in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table presents changes in the Company’s contract assets and liabilities during the six months ended September 30, ~~2016, respectively.~~2018 (in millions):



	Balance Sheet Classification	March 31, 2018		Additions		Deductions			September 30, 2018

Backlog

As of September 30, 2018, the Company has unsatisfied performance obligations of $340.7 million, which represent the most likely amount of consideration expected to be received for satisfying the remaining performance obligations under open contracts. The Company has elected to use the optional exemption provided by ASC 606-10-50-14A for variable consideration, and has not included estimated rebates in the amount of unsatisfied performance obligations. The Company expects to recognize approximately 82% of the unsatisfied performance obligations as revenue in fiscal 2019 and the remaining 18% in fiscal 2020 and beyond.

Significant Judgments

Timing of Performance Obligations Satisfied at a Point in Time

The Company determined that the customer is able to control the product when it is delivered to them; thus, depending on the shipping terms, control will transfer at different points between the Company's manufacturing facility or warehouse and the customer’s location. The Company considers control to have transferred upon shipment or delivery because the Company has a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, the Company has transferred physical possession of the asset, and the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset.

Variable Consideration

The Company provides volume-based rebates and the right to return product to certain customers, which are accrued for based on current facts and historical experience. Rebates are paid either on an annual or quarterly basis. There are no other significant variable consideration elements included in the Company's contracts with customers.

Contract Costs

The Company has elected to expense contract costs as incurred if the amortization period is expected to be one year or less. If the amortization period of these costs is expected to be greater than one year, the costs would be subject to capitalization. As of September 30, 2018, the contract assets capitalized, as well as amortization recognized in fiscal 2019, are not significant and there have been no impairment losses recognized.

4.6. Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. Tax Reform”). U.S. Tax Reform incorporates significant changes to U.S. corporate income tax laws including, among other items, a reduction in the statutory federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, an exemption for dividends received from certain foreign subsidiaries, a one-time repatriation tax on deemed repatriated earnings from foreign subsidiaries, immediate taxation of deemed low-taxed “intangible” income earned in foreign jurisdictions (referred to as global intangible low-taxed income or “GILTI”), immediate expensing of certain depreciable tangible assets, limitations on the deduction for net interest expense and certain executive compensation and the repeal of the Domestic Production Activities Deduction (“DPAD”).

In acknowledgment of the substantial and substantive changes incorporated in U.S. Tax Reform, in conjunction with the timing of the enactment being just weeks before the majority of the provisions became effective, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 118 to provide certain guidance in determining the accounting for income tax effects of the legislation in the accounting period of enactment as well as provide a measurement period (similar to that used when accounting for business combinations) within which to finalize and reflect such final effects associated with U.S. Tax Reform. Further, SAB 118 summarizes a three-step approach to be applied each reporting period within the overall measurement period: (1) amounts should be reflected in the period including the date of enactment for those items which are deemed to be complete (i.e. all information is available and appropriately analyzed to determine the applicable financial statement impact), (2) to the extent the effects of certain changes due to U.S. Tax Reform for which the accounting is not deemed complete but for which a reasonable estimate can be determined, such provisional amount(s) should be reflected in the period so determined and adjusted in subsequent periods as such effects are finalized and (3) to the extent a reasonable estimate cannot be determined for a specific effect of the tax law change associated with U.S. Tax Reform, no provisional amount should be recorded but rather, continue to apply ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), based upon the tax law in effect prior to the enactment of U.S. Tax Reform. Such measurement period is deemed to end when all necessary information has been obtained, prepared and analyzed such that a final accounting determination can be concluded, but in no event should the period extend beyond one year.

In consideration of this guidance, the Company obtained, prepared and analyzed various information associated with the enactment of U.S. Tax Reform (including subsequent Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) Notices, etc.). Based upon this review, the Company recognized an estimated net income tax benefit with respect to US Tax Reform for fiscal 2018 of $66.5 million. This net income tax benefit reflects a $66.5 million net estimated income tax benefit associated with the remeasurement of the Company’s net U.S. deferred tax liability (including consideration of executive compensation limitations under U.S. Tax Reform) and the one-time repatriation tax of $1.4 million (including state income tax), offset by $1.4 million relating to the remeasurement of unrecognized tax benefits impacted by the one-time repatriation tax. Due to the timing and complexity of the various technical provisions provided for under U.S. Tax Reform, the financial statement impacts recorded for fiscal 2018 relating to U.S. Tax Reform are not deemed to be complete but rather are deemed to be reasonable, provisional estimates based upon the current available information and related interpretations. For example, the Company was required to use estimates for earnings and profits and taxes in conjunction with determining the impact of the one-time repatriation tax. Similarly, due to recent acquisitions, deferred taxes generally remain “open”, such that any purchase accounting entries recorded that impact opening deferred taxes will automatically require a restatement to the 21% statutory federal tax rate (from the 35% rate required to be used for purchase accounting purposes). In addition, in relation to the remeasurement of the Company’s net U.S. deferred tax liability (as well as numerous other aspects of U.S. Tax Reform), the Company had to use judgment based upon currently available guidance and interpretations of such guidance. Future guidance could result in changes to the Company’s current interpretation, and as such, result in changes to previously recorded amounts. Such changes will be reflected as discrete items in the applicable period. Although the Company believes the net income tax benefit recognized for fiscal 2018 as outlined above was a reasonable estimate based upon the available information and analysis completed at that date, these related amounts will likely change, possibly materially, based upon finalization of actual financial information and as further clarification is provided with respect to the application of various tax law changes incorporated by U.S. Tax Reform. As such, the Company expects to update and finalize the accounting for the tax effect of the enactment of U.S. Tax Reform in future quarters in accordance with the guidance as outlined in SAB 118, as deemed necessary. The Company has reviewed and analyzed various IRS Notices, proposed regulations and other pertinent information that became available during the first six months of fiscal 2019. Based upon this review and analysis to date, the Company has determined that no changes are currently required with regard to the net estimated impact reflected in fiscal 2018 and such items continue to be deemed incomplete.

The Company continues to evaluate the potential future impact of the GILTI provisions of U.S. Tax Reform. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, any potential future impacts of GILTI can either be treated as a period expense in the period incurred or considered in the determination of the Company’s deferred tax balances. The Company has provisionally elected to account for GILTI as a period expense; however, the Company has not made a final accounting policy decision with respect to this item as such decision will be dependent upon further analysis, clarification of GILTI tax provisions and potential future changes to the Company’s existing legal structure, all of which are currently unknown. Although none of the Company’s material foreign subsidiaries operate within tax jurisdictions that would otherwise meet the definition of “low-taxed” as outlined in the GILTI tax rules, the Company

is nevertheless subject to the GILTI tax as a result of one particular aspect of the U.S. foreign income tax credit limitation rules requiring the allocation of U.S. interest expense against the GILTI income. Such allocation effectively results in the allocated interest expense being non-deductible for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Were it not for this requirement, the Company would generally not be subject to the GILTI tax as it is currently outlined.

The provision ~~(benefit)~~ for income taxes for all periods presented is based on an estimated effective income tax rate for the respective full fiscal years. The estimated annual effective income tax rate is determined excluding the effect of significant discrete items or items that are reported net of their related tax effects. The tax effect of significant discrete items is reflected in the period in which they occur. The Company's income tax expense is impacted by a number of factors, including the amount of taxable earnings derived in foreign jurisdictions with tax rates that are generally ~~lower~~higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate, state tax rates in the jurisdictions where the Company does business and the Company's ability to utilize various tax credits and net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards.

The Company regularly reviews its deferred tax assets for recoverability and establishes valuation allowances based on historical losses, projected future taxable income and the expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary differences, as deemed appropriate. In addition, all other available positive and negative evidence is taken into consideration for purposes of determining the proper balances of such valuation allowances. As a result of this review, the Company continues to maintain valuation allowances against the deferred tax assets relating to certain foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards. Future changes to the balances of these valuation allowances, as a result of this continued review and analysis by the Company, could result in a material impact to the financial statements for such period of change.

The income tax provision was ~~$14.8~~$17.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 compared to an income tax provision of ~~$4.4~~$15.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 was ~~33.2%~~27.4% versus ~~15.2%~~31.9% in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 was above the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the accrual of foreign income taxes, which are generally above the U.S. federal statutory rate, the accrual of additional taxes associated with GILTI and the accrual of various state income taxes, partially offset by the recognition of excess tax benefits associated with share-based payments. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 was below the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the recognition of net tax benefits associated with anthe accrual ~~for~~of the ~~Domestic Production Activities Deduction (DPAD)~~DPAD and the recognition of certain foreign ~~branch-related~~branch related losses for U.S. income tax purposes, partially offset bywith an increase in valuation allowances relating to certain foreign net operating losses. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was below the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the recognition of net tax benefits associated with U.S. research and development credits, the recognition of a bad debt deduction for U.S. income tax purposes relating to an insolvent foreign subsidiary and the recognition of certain foreign branch-related losses for U.S. income tax purposes.

The income tax provision recorded in the first six months of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 was ~~$23.0~~$31.7 million compared to an income tax ~~benefit~~provision of ~~$1.5~~$24.5 million in the first six months of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018. The effective income tax rate for the first six months of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 was ~~29.0%~~26.9% versus ~~(3.6)%~~28.1% in the first six months of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018. The effective income tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 2019 was above the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the accrual of foreign income taxes, which are generally above the U.S. federal statutory rate, the accrual of additional taxes associated with GILTI and the accrual of various state income taxes, partially offset by the recognition of excess tax benefits associated with share-based payments and the recognition of a tax benefit associated with a foreign country enacted rate reduction. The effective income tax rate for the first six months of fiscal 2018 was below the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the recognition of net tax benefits associated with anthe accrual ~~for~~of the DPAD, the recognition of excess U.S. foreign tax credits, the recognition of certain foreign ~~branch-related~~branch related losses for U.S. income tax purposes and the recognition of certain previously unrecognized tax benefits due to the lapse of the applicable statutes of limitations, partially offset by anthe increase in valuation allowances related to certain foreign net operating losses. The income tax benefit recognized on income before income taxes for the first six months of fiscal 2017 was primarily due to excess tax benefits associated with share-based payments (in conjunction with the early adoption of ASU 2016-09), the recognition of net tax benefits associated with U.S. research and development credits, the recognition of a worthless stock and bad debt deduction for U.S. income tax purposes relating to an insolvent foreign subsidiary and the recognition of excess U.S. foreign tax credits.

At September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company had an ~~$18.5~~$20.9 million liability for unrecognized net income tax benefits. At March 31, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company’s total liability for unrecognized net income tax benefits was ~~$18.1~~$20.1 million. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized income tax benefits in income tax expense. As of September 30, ~~2017~~2018 and March 31, ~~2017,~~2018, the total amount of gross, unrecognized income tax benefits included ~~$5.1~~$6.1 million and ~~$4.7~~$5.7 million of accrued interest and penalties, respectively. The Company recognized $0.3 million of net interest and penalties as income tax expense during both the six months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2018 and September 30, ~~2016.~~2017.

The Company conducts business in multiple locations within and outside the U.S. Consequently, the Company is subject to periodic income tax examinations by domestic and foreign income tax authorities. Currently, the Company is undergoing routine, periodic income tax examinations in both domestic and foreign jurisdictions (including a review of a few specific items on certain corporate income tax returns of the Company’s Netherlands subsidiaries for the tax years ended March 31, 2011 through ~~2015)~~2016). ~~In addition,~~During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service ~~is currently examining~~completed an income tax examination of the Company’s amended U.S. consolidated federal income tax ~~return and related amended~~ return for the tax year ended March 31, ~~2015. During~~2015 and the ~~third quarter of fiscal 2017, the~~ Company completed an examination of certain of its Italian subsidiaries’ corporate income tax returns for the tax years ended March 31, 2014 through 2016 and paid approximately $0.7 million upon the conclusion of such examination. In addition, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company completed an examination of certain of its German subsidiaries’ corporate income and trade tax returns for the tax years ended March 31, 2011 through 2014 and paid approximately $0.4 million upon conclusion of such examination. It appears reasonably possible that the amounts of unrecognized income tax benefits could change in the next twelve months upon conclusion of the Company’s current ongoing examinations; however, any potential payments of income tax, interest and penalties are not expected to be significant to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

With certain exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for tax years ending prior to March 31, ~~2014,~~2015, state and local income tax examinations for years ending prior to fiscal ~~2013~~2014 or significant foreign income tax examinations for years ending prior to fiscal ~~2012.~~2013. With respect to the Company's U.S. federal NOL carryforward (which was

fully utilized for the tax year ended March 31, 2015), the short tax period from July 21, 2006 to March 31, 2007 (due to ~~the~~a prior change in control ~~when Apollo Management, L.P. acquired~~of the Company) and the tax years ended March 31, 2008 through March 31, 2013 are open under statutes of limitations; whereby, the Internal Revenue Service may not adjust the income tax liability for these years, but may reduce the NOL carryforward and any other tax attribute carryforwards to currently open tax years.

(1) The "if-converted" method was dilutive for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Under the "if-converted" method, diluted net income per share is calculated under the assumption that the shares of Series A Preferred Stock have been converted into shares of the Company's common stock as of the beginning of the respective periods, and therefore no dividends would have been provided to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock.

The computation of diluted net (loss) income per share for the three and six months ended September 30, 2018 excludes 0.5 million and 0.9 million shares, respectively, related to equity awards due to their anti-dilutive effects. The computation for diluted net (loss) income per share also does not include shares of preferred stock that are convertible into a weighted average 16.0 million common shares for the six months ended September 30, 2018, because to do so would have been anti-dilutive.

The computation of diluted net (loss) income per share for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017 excludes 2.8 million and 5.1 million shares, respectively, related to equity awards due to their anti-dilutive effects. The computation offor diluted net ~~income per share for both the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 excludes 5.2 million shares related to equity awards due to their anti-dilutive effects. The computation for diluted net~~(loss) income per share also does not include shares of preferred stock that are convertible into a weighted average of 16.7 ~~million~~ and 17.0 million common shares for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, because to do so would have been anti-dilutive.

Preferred Stock

~~During the third quarter~~As of ~~fiscal 2017, the Company issued 8,050,000 depositary~~September 30, 2018, there were 402,500 shares ~~each of which represents a 1/20th interest in a share~~ of 5.75% Series A Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred Stock")~~, for an offering price of $50 per depository share. The Company issued an aggregate of 402,500 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in connection therewith.~~ outstanding. Unless converted earlier, each share of Series A Preferred Stock will convert automatically on the mandatory conversion date, which is November 15, 2019, into between ~~39.702~~39.7020 and ~~47.642~~47.6420 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion will be determined based on a defined average volume weighted average price per share of the Company’s common stock preceding November 15, 2019. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock may elect on a voluntary basis to convert their shares into common stock at the minimum exchange ratio at any time prior to the mandatory conversion date.

Dividends accumulate from the issuance date. Rexnord may pay such dividends in cash or, subject to certain limitations, by delivery of shares of the Company's common stock or through any combination of cash and shares of the Company's common stock as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. Any unpaid dividends will continue to accumulate. Dividends are payable quarterly, ending on November 15, 2019. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock have a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, plus accrued but unpaid dividends. With respect to dividend and liquidation rights, the Series A Preferred Stock ranks senior to the Company's common stock and junior to all existing and future indebtedness.

The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $389.7 million. The Company used $195.0 million of the proceeds to prepay a portion of the then-outstanding term loan indebtedness under its credit agreement, with the remainder retained for general corporate purposes. During the three and six months ended September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company paid $5.8 million and $11.6 million of dividends ~~respectively.~~on the Series A Preferred Stock. As of September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, there were no dividends in arrears on the Series A Preferred Stock.

See Note 19, Public Offering and Common Stock ~~Repurchase Program~~

~~In fiscal 2015,~~Repurchases, to the ~~Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") authorizing the repurchase of up to $200.0 million~~audited consolidated financial statements of the Company's ~~common stock from time to time~~fiscal 2018 Annual Report on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The Repurchase Program does not require the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and does not specify the timing of purchases or the prices to be paid; however, the program will continue until the maximum amount of dollars authorized have been expended or until it is modified or terminated by the Board. No shares were repurchased during the six months ended September 30, 2017 or September 30, 2016. A total of approximately $160.0 million remained of the existing repurchase authority at September 30, 2017.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

~~The~~At September 30, 2018, the Company’s Third Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”) is funded by a syndicate of banks and other financial institutions and provides for (i) ~~a $1,606.4~~an $800.0 million term loan facility ~~that matures on August 21, 2023 ( the“Term Loan”)~~ and (ii) a ~~$265.0~~$264.0 million revolving credit facility. The term loan facility ~~that matures on March 15, 2019.~~has a maturity date of August 21, 2024, and there are no required principal payments due or scheduled under the term debt until the maturity date. During August 2018, the Company met the required rating of the Credit Agreement allowing the applicable margin under the Term Loan to be reduced from 2.25% to 2.00%. At September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, the borrowings under the Term Loan had a weighted-average effective interest rate of ~~4.06%~~4.26%, determined as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) (subject to a ~~1.00%~~0% floor) plus an applicable margin of ~~2.75%~~2.00%. The weighted-average interest rate for the ~~period~~six months ended September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, was ~~4.02%,~~4.20% determined as LIBOR (subject to a ~~1.0%~~0.0% floor) plus an applicable margin of ~~2.75%~~2.00%. No amounts were borrowed under the revolving credit facility at September 30, ~~2017~~2018 or March 31, ~~2017;~~2018; however, ~~$9.3~~$6.2 million and ~~$14.6~~$8.3 million of the revolving credit facility ~~was~~were considered utilized in connection with outstanding letters of credit at September 30, ~~2017~~2018 and March 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively.

As of September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants under ~~its~~the Credit Agreement, including compliance with a maximum permitted total net leverage ratio (the Company's sole financial maintenance covenant under the revolving credit ~~facility)~~facility discussed below) of 6.75 to 1.0. The Company's total net leverage ratio was ~~3.1~~2.7 to 1.0 as of September 30, ~~2017.~~2018.

4.875% Senior Notes due 2025

On December 7, 2017, the Company issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875% senior notes due 2025 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued by RBS Global, Inc. and Rexnord LLC (Company subsidiaries; collectively, the “Issuers”) pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of December 7, 2017 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Issuers, the domestic subsidiaries of the Company (with certain exceptions) as guarantors named therein (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”). The Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Issuers. Rexnord Corporation separately entered into a Parent Guarantee with the Trustee whereby it guaranteed certain obligations of the Issuers under the Indenture. The Notes pay interest semi-annually on June 15 and December 15. The Notes were not and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or any state securities laws.

Accounts Receivable Securitization Program

The Company maintains an accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Securitization”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Pursuant to the Securitization, Rexnord Funding (a wholly owned bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary) has granted the lender under the Securitization a security interest in all of its current and future receivables and related assets in exchange for a credit facility permitting borrowings of up to a maximum aggregate amount of $100.0 million outstanding from time to time. Such borrowings will be used by Rexnord Funding to finance purchases of accounts receivable. The Securitization constitutes a ~~“Permitted~~

“Permitted Receivables Financing” under Article 1 and Article 6 of the Credit Agreement. Any borrowings under the Securitization are accounted for as secured borrowings on the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets.

~~As of both~~At September 30, ~~2017~~2018 and March 31, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company's ~~available~~ borrowing capacity under the Securitization was $100.0 million, based on the ~~then-current~~current accounts ~~receivables.~~receivables balance.

In addition, $7.6 million and ~~$4.6~~$7.9 million of available borrowing capacity under the Securitization was considered utilized in connection with outstanding letters of credit at September 30, ~~2017~~2018 and March 31, ~~2017,~~2018, respectively. As of September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants and performance ratios contained in the Securitization.

See Note 11 to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company's fiscal ~~2017~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information regarding long-term debt.

~~12.~~14. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company is exposed to certain financial risks relating to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company currently selectively uses foreign currency forward exchange contracts to manage its foreign currency risk. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to defined policies and procedures that prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

The Company periodically enters into foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the foreign currency volatility relative to certain intercompany and external cash flows expected to occur. These foreign currency forward contracts were not accounted for as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), and as such were marked to market through earnings. The amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and recognized within the condensed consolidated statements of operations related to the Company's foreign currency forward contracts are set forth within the tables below.

Interest Rate Derivatives

The Company ~~utilizes~~utilized three interest rate swaps to hedge the variability in future cash flows associated with ~~a portion of~~ the ~~Company’s~~Company's variable-rate term loans. The interest rate swaps, which originally became effective in fiscal 2016, ~~convert~~converted $650.0 million of the Company’s variable-rate term loans to a weighted average fixed interest rate of 2.55% plus the applicable margin ~~(inclusive of a 1% LIBOR floor). The interest rate swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815~~ and ~~will mature~~matured on September 27, 2018.

In addition, the Company ~~utilizes~~utilized two interest rate caps to further mitigate the Company's exposure to increasing interest rates on its variable-rate interest loans. Those interest rate caps were effective beginning in fiscal 2015 ~~with a maturity of~~and matured on October 24, 2018, and they ~~cap~~capped the interest on $750.0 million of the Company's variable-rate interest loans at 3%3.0%, plus the applicable margin. In executing the interest rate caps, the Company paid a premium of $5.8 million. The interest rate caps have been designated as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815. When combined with the Company's existing interest rate swaps, the Company has hedged approximately 88% of its outstanding variable rate term loans with a weighted average interest rate that cannot exceed 2.79% plus the applicable margin of 2.75%.

The fair values of the Company's interest rate derivatives are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets with the corresponding offset recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. See the amounts recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets related to the Company's interest rate derivatives within the tables below.

The Company's derivatives are measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (“ASC 820”). See Note 1315 for more information as it relates to the fair value measurement of the Company's derivative financial instruments. The following tables indicate the location and the fair value of the Company's non-qualifying, non-designated derivative instruments within the condensed consolidated balance sheets ~~segregated between designated, qualifying ASC 815 hedging instruments and non-qualifying, non-designated hedging instruments.~~

~~13.~~15. Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820 also specifies a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use.

In accordance with ASC 820, fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:

Level 1-1 - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2-2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs or significant value-drivers are observable.

Level 3-3 - Model-derived valuations in which one or more inputs or value-drivers are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

If applicable, the Company uses quoted market prices in active markets to determine fair value, and therefore classifies such measurements within Level 1. In some cases where market prices are not available, the Company makes use of observable market-based inputs to calculate fair value, in which case the measurements are classified within Level 2. If quoted or observable market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use, where possible, current market-based parameters. These measurements are classified within Level 3 if they use significant unobservable inputs.

Fair Value of ~~Derivative~~Financial Instruments

The Company transacts in foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps and ~~interest rate caps.~~caps, which are impacted by ASC 820. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is based on a pricing model that utilizes the differential between the contract price and the market-based forward rate as applied to fixed future deliveries of currency at pre-designated settlement dates. The fair value of interest rate swaps and ~~interest rate~~ caps is based on pricing models. These models use discounted cash flows that utilize the appropriate market-based forward swap curves and interest rates.

The Company endeavors to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. As required by ASC 820, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ~~Foreign~~The Company has determined that its foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps reside within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company has a nonqualified deferred compensation plan where assets are invested in mutual funds and corporate-owned life insurance contracts held in a rabbi trust, which is restricted for payments to participants of the plan. The Company has elected to use the fair value option for the mutual funds, which are measured using quoted prices of identical instruments in active markets categorized as Level 1. Corporate-owned life insurance contracts are recorded at cash surrender value, which is provided by a third party and reflects the net asset value of the underlying publicly traded mutual funds categorized as Level 2. The deferred compensation assets are classified within other assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Deferred compensation liabilities are measured at fair value based on quoted prices of identical instruments to the investment vehicles selected by the participants categorized as Level 1. Deferred compensation liabilities are classified within other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

There were no transfers of assets ~~or liabilities~~ between levels ~~for the periods presented.~~ at September 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively.

The following table provides a summary of the Company's assets and liabilities that were recognized at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, ~~2017~~2018 and March 31, ~~2017~~2018 (in millions):

Fair Value of Non-Derivative Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash, receivables, payables and accrued liabilities approximated fair value at September 30, ~~2017~~2018 and March 31, ~~2017~~2018 due to the short-term nature of those instruments. The fair value of long-term debt as of September 30, ~~2017~~2018 and March 31, ~~2017~~2018 was approximately ~~$1,640.2~~$1,334.6 million and ~~$1,644.6~~$1,361.8 million, respectively. The fair value is based on quoted market prices for the same issues.

~~Long-lived Assets and Intangible Assets~~

Long-lived assets (which includes property, plant and equipment and real estate) may be measured at fair value if such assets are held-for-sale or when there is a determination that the asset is impaired. Intangible assets (which include patents, tradenames, customer relationships, and non-compete agreements) also may be measured at fair value when there is a determination that the asset is impaired. The determination of fair value for these assets is based on the best information available that resides within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, including internal cash flow estimates discounted at an appropriate interest rate, quoted market prices when available, market prices for similar assets and independent appraisals, as appropriate. For real estate, cash flow estimates are based on current market estimates that reflect current and projected lease profiles and available industry information about expected trends in rental, occupancy and capitalization rates.

In connection with the ongoing supply chain optimization and footprint repositioning initiatives, the Company has taken several actions to consolidate existing manufacturing facilities and rationalize its product offerings. These actions require the Company to assess whether the carrying amount of impacted long-lived assets will be recoverable as well as whether the remaining useful lives require adjustment. During fiscal 2017 and 2018, the Company recognized both impairment charges and accelerated depreciation of certain assets to place the assets at net realizable value. Net realizable value of these assets was determined using independent appraisals, classified as Level 3 inputs within the fair value hierarchy. As of September 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, these assets were recorded at net realizable value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets within property, plant and equipment in the amount of $10.1 million and $7.0 million, respectively.

~~14.~~16. Commitments and Contingencies

Warranties:

The Company offers warranties on the sales of certain products and records an accrual for estimated future claims. Such accruals are based upon historical experience and management's estimate of the level of future claims. The following table presents changes in the Company's product warranty liability (in millions):


	Six Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	September 30, 2017			September 30, 2016			September 30, 2018			September 30, 2017
Balance at beginning of period	$	7.5		$	6.8		$	7.7		$	5.9
Acquired obligations	—			0.4
Charged to operations	2.2			2.0			1.5			2.2
Claims settled	(2.5		)	(2.4		)	(1.2		)	(1.9		)
Balance at end of period	$	7.2		$	6.8		$	8.0		$	6.2

Contingencies:

The Company's subsidiaries are involved in various unresolved legal actions, administrative proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business involving, among other things, product liability, commercial, employment, workers' compensation, intellectual property claims and environmental matters. The Company establishes accruals in a manner that is consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for costs associated with such matters when liability is probable and those costs are capable of being reasonably estimated. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss or recovery, based upon current information, management believes the eventual outcome of these unresolved legal actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In connection with its sale, ~~of the Company,~~ Invensys plc ("Invensys") provided the Company with indemnification against certain contingent liabilities, including certain pre-closing environmental liabilities. The Company believes that, pursuant to such indemnity obligations, Invensys is obligated to defend and indemnify the Company with respect to the matters described below relating to the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site and to various asbestos claims. The indemnity obligations relating to the matters described below are subject, together with indemnity obligations relating to other matters, to an overall dollar cap equal to the purchase price, which is an amount in excess of $900 million. The following paragraphs summarize the most significant actions and proceedings:

In 2002, Rexnord Industries, LLC (“Rexnord Industries”) was named as a potentially responsible party (“PRP”), together with at least ten other companies, at the Ellsworth Industrial Park Site, Downers Grove, DuPage County, Illinois (the “Site”), by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (“USEPA”), and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (“IEPA”). Rexnord Industries' Downers Grove property is situated within the Ellsworth Industrial Complex. The USEPA and IEPA allege there have been one or more releases or threatened releases of chlorinated solvents and other hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants, allegedly including but not limited to a release or threatened release on or from the Company'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 USEPA's past costs. Rexnord Industries' 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 the Company related to the Site have been settled or dismissed. Pursuant to its indemnity obligation, Invensys continues to defend the Company in known matters related to the Site and has paid 100% of the costs to date.

Multiple lawsuits (with approximately 300 claimants) are pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain brakes and clutches previously manufactured by the Company's Stearns division and/or its predecessor owners. Invensys and FMC, prior owners of the Stearns business, have paid 100% of the costs to date related to the Stearns lawsuits. Similarly, the Company's Prager subsidiary is a defendant in two pending multi-defendant lawsuits relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in a product allegedly manufactured by Prager. Additionally, there are numerous individuals who have filed asbestos related claims against Prager; however, these claims are currently on the Texas Multi-district Litigation inactive docket. The ultimate outcome of these asbestos matters cannot presently be determined. To date, the Company's insurance providers have paid 100% of the costs related to the Prager asbestos matters. The Company believes that the combination of its insurance coverage and the Invensys indemnity obligations will cover any future costs of these matters.

In connection with the Company's acquisition of The Falk Corporation (“Falk”), Hamilton Sundstrand provided the Company with indemnification against certain products-related asbestos exposure liabilities. The Company believes that, pursuant to such indemnity obligations, Hamilton Sundstrand is obligated to defend and indemnify the Company with respect to the asbestos claims described below, and that, with respect to these claims, such indemnity obligations are not subject to any time or dollar limitations.

The following paragraph summarizes the most significant actions and proceedings for which Hamilton Sundstrand has accepted responsibility:

Falk, through its successor entity, is a defendant in multiple lawsuits pending in state or federal court in numerous jurisdictions relating to alleged personal injuries due to the alleged presence of asbestos in certain clutches and drives previously manufactured by Falk. There are approximately 100 claimants in these suits. The ultimate outcome of these lawsuits cannot presently be determined. Hamilton Sundstrand is defending the Company in these lawsuits pursuant to its indemnity obligations and has paid 100% of the costs to date.

Certain Water Management subsidiaries are also subject to asbestos litigation. As of September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, Zurn and numerous other unrelated companies were defendants in approximately ~~7,000~~6,000 asbestos related lawsuits representing approximately ~~17,000~~14,000 claims. Plaintiffs' claims allege personal injuries caused by exposure to asbestos used primarily in industrial boilers formerly manufactured by a segment of Zurn. Zurn did not manufacture asbestos or asbestos components. Instead, Zurn purchased them from suppliers. These claims are being handled pursuant to a defense strategy funded by insurers.

As of September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company estimates the potential liability for the asbestos-related claims described above as well as the claims expected to be filed in the next ten years to be approximately ~~$37.0~~$38.0 million, of which Zurn expects its insurance carriers to pay approximately ~~$28.0~~$29.0 million in the next ten years on such claims, with the balance of the estimated liability being paid in subsequent years. The ~~$37.0~~$38.0 million was developed based on actuarial studies and represents the projected indemnity payout for current and future claims. There are inherent uncertainties involved in estimating the number of future asbestos claims, future settlement costs, and the effectiveness of defense strategies and settlement initiatives. As a result, actual liability could differ from the estimate described herein and could be substantial. The liability for the asbestos-related claims is recorded in Other liabilities within the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Management estimates that its available insurance to cover this potential asbestos liability as of September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, is ~~approximately $241.8 million,~~in excess of the ten year estimated exposure, and accordingly, believes that all current claims are covered by insurance. However, principally as a result of the past insolvency of certain of the Company's insurance carriers, certain coverage gaps will exist if and after the Company's other carriers have paid the first $165.8 million of aggregate liabilities.

As of September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, the Company had a recorded receivable from its insurance carriers of ~~$37.0~~$38.0 million, which corresponds to the amount of this potential asbestos liability that is covered by available insurance and is currently determined to be probable of recovery. However, there is no assurance ~~that $241.8 million of~~the Company's current insurance coverage will ultimately be available or that this asbestos liability will not ultimately exceed ~~$241.8 million.~~the Company's coverage limits. Factors that could cause a decrease in the amount of available coverage or create gaps in coverage include: changes in law governing the policies, potential disputes and settlements with the carriers regarding the scope of coverage, and insolvencies of one or more of the Company's carriers. The receivable for probable asbestos-related recoveries is recorded in Other assets within the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Certain Company subsidiaries were named as defendants in a number of individual and class action lawsuits in various United States courts claiming damages due to the alleged failure or anticipated failure of Zurn brass fittings on the PEX plumbing systems in homes and other structures. In fiscal 2013, the Company reached a court-approved agreement to settle the liability underlying this litigation. The settlement is designed to resolve, on a national basis, the Company's overall exposure for both known and unknown claims related to the alleged failure or anticipated failure of such ~~fittings, subject to the right of eligible class members to opt-out of the settlement and pursue their claims independently.~~fittings. The settlement utilizes a seven year claims fund, which is capped at $20.0 million, and is funded in installments over the seven year period based on claim activity and minimum funding criteria. The settlement also covers class action plaintiffs' attorneys' fees and expenses. Historically, the Company's insurance carrier had funded the Company's defense in the above referenced proceedings. The Company, however, reached a settlement agreement with its insurer, whereby the insurer paid the Company a lump sum in exchange for a release of future exposure related to this liability. The Company has recorded an accrual related to this brass fittings liability, which takes into account, in pertinent part, the insurance carrier contribution, as well as exposure from the claims fund ~~opt-outs~~ and the waiver of future insurance coverage.

Sale-Leaseback Transaction:

During fiscal 2018, the Company entered into a sale-leaseback arrangement for an owned facility in Downers Grove, Illinois and received net proceeds from the transaction of $5.8 million. Due to the Company's continuing involvement with the construction of a new facility at the same location, the property did not qualify for sale accounting under the sale-leaseback accounting guidance during the construction period and as a result it has been accounted for as a financing transaction, with the $5.8 million of proceeds being classified in the consolidated balance sheets in other current liabilities. The Company will depreciate the carrying value of the building over the expected remaining useful life. No gain or loss was recognized from the transaction.

As a result of the Company's anticipated involvement during the construction period of a new manufacturing facility the Company is considered, for accounting purposes only, the owner of the construction asset under build-to-suit lease accounting. Upon completion of construction, the Company will evaluate the de-recognition of the asset and liability under sale-leaseback accounting guidance. As of September 30, 2018, the Company has recorded a financing lease obligation of $19.0 million associated with the construction asset of the same value.

During the first six months of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 and ~~2017,~~2018, the Company made contributions of ~~$2.9~~$1.1 million and ~~$4.6~~$2.9 million, respectively, to its U.S. qualified pension plan trusts.

In accordance with the Company's accounting policy for defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans, actuarial gains and losses above the corridor are immediately recognized in the Company's operating results. The corridor is 10% of the higher of the pension benefit obligation or the fair value of the plan assets. This adjustment is typically recorded annually in the fourth quarter in connection with the Company's required year-end re-measurement of plan assets and benefit obligations, or upon any off-cycle re-measurement event.

See Note 16, Retirement Benefits, to the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company's fiscal ~~2017~~2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information regarding retirement benefits.

~~16.~~18. Stock-Based Compensation

The Rexnord Corporation Performance Incentive Plan (the "Plan") is utilized to provide performance incentives to the Company's officers, employees, directors and certain others by permitting grants of equity awards (for common stock), as well as performance-based cash awards, to such persons to encourage them to maximize Rexnord's performance and create value for Rexnord's stockholders. ~~ASC 718,~~ ~~Compensation-Stock Compensation~~ ~~(“ASC 718”), requires~~For the three and six months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized $5.7 million and $11.6 million of stock-based compensation costs related to share-based payment transactions to be recognized in the financial statements. Generally, compensation cost is measured based on the estimated grant-date fair value of the equity instruments issued. Compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service period, generally as the awards vest.

expense from continuing operations, respectively. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2017, the Company recognized ~~$5.4~~$5.2 million and ~~$10.8~~$10.5 million of stock-based compensation expense from continuing operations, respectively. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recognized $3.7 million and $6.0 million of stock-based compensation expense, respectively. As of September 30, 2017, there was $34.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested equity awards that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years.

~~Stock Options~~

During the six months ended September 30, ~~2017 and September 30, 2016,~~2018, the Company granted the following stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock units to directors, executive officers, and certain other employees, which vest over a weighted-average term of three years. The fair value of each option granted under the Plan during the six months ended September 30, 2017 was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes valuation model utilizing the following weighted-average assumptions:employees:



	~~Six Months Ended September 30, 2017~~
~~Expected option term (in years)~~	~~6.5~~
~~Expected volatility factor~~	~~31%~~
~~Weighted-average risk-free interest rate~~	~~1.99%~~
~~Expected dividend rate~~	~~0.0%~~



Award Type	Number of Awards	Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Stock options	552,841	$	10.60
Restricted stock units	291,822	$	28.92
Performance stock units	183,069	$	28.91

The Company estimates the expected term of stock options granted based on the midpoint between when the options vest and when they expire. The Company uses the simplified method to determine the expected term, as management does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected term dueSee Note 15, Stock-Based Compensation, to the ~~limited period~~audited consolidated financial statements of ~~time its common stock shares has been publicly traded. The Company’s expected volatility assumption is based on its historical volatility. The weighted-average risk-free interest rate is based on~~ the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant. Management assumes expected dividends of zero. The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted under the Plan during the six months ended September 30, 2017 was $8.11.

~~Performance Stock Units~~

The Company grants performance stock units (“PSUs”) to its executive officers and certain other employees. PSUs have a three-year performance period and are earned and vest, subject to continued employment, based in part on performance relative to metrics determined by the Compensation Committee. The number of PSUs earned, which can range between 0% and 200% of the target awards granted depending on the Company's actual performance during the three-year performance period, will be satisfied with Rexnord common stock.

The fair value of the portion of PSUs with vesting based on free cash flow conversion is determined based on the Company's closing common stock price on the date of grant. The fair value of the portion of PSUs with vesting based on relative total shareholder return is determined utilizing the Monte Carlo simulation model and the weighted-average fair value of awards granted during the six months ended September 30, 2017 was $31.25. Assumptions used to determine the fair value of each PSU were based on historical data and standard industry valuation practices and methodology. The following weighted-average assumptions were used for the PSUs granted during the six months ended September 30, 2017:

ITEM 2.	MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

Rexnord is a growth-oriented, multi-platform industrial company with what we believe are leading market shares and highly-trusted brands that serve a diverse array of global end markets. Our heritage of innovation and specification have allowed us to provide highly-engineered, mission-critical solutions to customers for decades and affords us the privilege of having long-term, valued relationships with market leaders. We operate our Company in a disciplined way and the Rexnord Business System (“RBS”) is our operating philosophy. Grounded in the spirit of continuous improvement, RBS creates a scalable, process-based framework that focuses on driving superior customer satisfaction and financial results by targeting world-class operating performance throughout all aspects of our business.

RBS initiatives employ a framework and various processes across multiple operations and geographies, and are intended to drive customer satisfaction, performance and operating results. Savings from our RBS initiatives reflect benefits from a wide variety of ongoing efficiency, productivity and process improvements. Unless individually significant, it is not practicable to disclose each RBS activity or change that generated savings.

The following information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, along with Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, ~~2017.~~2018.

Fiscal Year

Our fiscal year ends on March 31. Throughout this MD&A, we refer to the period from July 1, 2018 through September 30, 2018 as the “second quarter of fiscal 2019” or the “second quarter ended September 30, 2018.” Similarly, we refer to the period from July 1, 2017 through September 30, 2017 as the “second quarter of fiscal 2018” or the “second quarter ended September 30, 2017.~~” Similarly, we refer to the quarter ended September 30, 2016 as the “second quarter of fiscal 2017” or the “second quarter ended September 30, 2016.~~”

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), which require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities on the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Refer to Item 7, MD&A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, ~~2017~~2018 for information with respect to our critical accounting policies, which we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by management. Except for the items reported below, management believes that as of September 30, ~~2017~~2018 and during the period from April 1, ~~2017~~2018 through September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, there has been no material change to this information.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Item 1, Note 1 Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies regarding recent accounting pronouncements.

Acquisitions

On ~~June 1, 2016,~~September 24, 2018, we acquired ~~Cambridge International Holdings Corp. ("Cambridge")~~certain assets associated with the design and distribution of various roof drains, spouts and flow sensors for ~~a cash purchase price of $213.4~~institutional, commercial and industrial buildings for $2.0 million. Cambridge, with operations in Cambridge, Maryland and Matamoros, Mexico, is one of the world's largest suppliers of metal conveying and engineered woven metal solutions, primarily used in food processing end markets, as well as in architectural, packaging and filtration applications. The acquisition of ~~Cambridge expanded~~these assets added complementary product lines to our ~~presence~~existing Water Management platform.

On February 9, 2018, we acquired Centa Power Transmission (Centa Antriebe Kirschey GmbH) ("Centa"), a leading manufacturer of premium flexible couplings and drive shafts for industrial, marine, rail and power generation applications. The preliminary purchase price was $129.7 million plus assumed debt. Centa, headquartered in ~~consumer-driven end markets in the~~Haan, Germany, added complementary product lines to our existing Process & Motion Control platform. Our results of operations include the acquired operations subsequent to ~~June 1, 2016.~~February 9, 2018.

On October 4, 2017, ~~subsequent to the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2018,~~ we acquired World Dryer Corporation (“World Dryer”) for a ~~preliminary~~ cash purchase price of ~~approximately~~ $50.0 million, excluding transaction costs and net of cash acquired. World Dryer is a leading global manufacturer of commercial electric hand ~~dryers with the largest worldwide installed~~dryers. This acquisition added complementary product ~~base. The combination of World Dryer’s eco-friendly hand dryers and Zurn's water-efficient plumbing products is expected~~lines to ~~bring even greater value to commercial building owners in the form of lower operating costs.~~our existing Water Management platform. Our results of operations ~~will~~ include the acquired operations ~~as part of our Water Management platform~~ subsequent to October 4, 2017.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2019, our Board of Directors approved a plan to sell the net assets of our VAG business included within our Water Management platform. Going forward, we plan to focus and build our Water Management platform around our Zurn specification-grade commercial plumbing products, which represents a strategic shift that has a major impact on our operations and financial results. As a result, in accordance with the authoritative guidance, the operating results of the VAG business are reported as discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented.

The assets and liabilities of the VAG business remaining as of September 30, 2018 are presented as current assets and current liabilities held for sale in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On October 5, 2018, we entered into a definitive sale and purchase agreement (the "Agreement") to sell our VAG business. The transaction is anticipated to close in the third quarter of our fiscal 2019 and is subject to customary closing conditions, including antitrust approval in Germany and Austria. Based on the terms of the Agreement, we anticipate receiving approximately $25 million of cash proceeds upon closing, subject to customary working capital and cash balance adjustments at closing. The Agreement also provides us to receive contingent consideration of up to an additional $20 million based on the attainment of Earn-out EBITDA, as defined in the Agreement, in our fiscal years ending March 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021. Based on the estimated cash proceeds we expect we will receive in connection with the Agreement less the expected costs incurred in connection with the sale, we recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $82.0 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to reduce the carrying amount of the VAG business to its estimated fair value less costs to sell as of September 30, 2018. As noted above, the timing and completion of the Agreement is subject to closing conditions and other factors may interfere with the timing of the transaction, the amount received or its ultimate completion, and the sale price for the VAG business is subject to closing adjustments, and therefore the estimated fair value less costs to sell is subject to change.

Prior to entering into the Agreement and in connection with the preparation of the financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a $44.0 million non-cash impairment during the first quarter of fiscal 2019 to reflect our estimated fair value less costs to sell of the VAG business during the preliminary stages of the sale process. For the three months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, our loss from discontinued operations was $83.7 million and $3.5 million, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, our loss from discontinued operations was $126.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively. For other elements of the loss from discontinued operations, refer to Item 1, Note 4, Discontinued Operations for further information. The analysis of our results of operations below focuses on our results from continuing operations.

Restructuring

During fiscal ~~2018,~~2019, we continued to execute various restructuring initiatives focused on driving efficiencies, reducing operating costs by modifying our footprint to reflect changes in the markets we serve and the impact of acquisitions on our overall manufacturing capacity, and refining our overall product portfolio. We expect these initiatives to continue, which may result in further workforce reductions, lease termination costs, and other facility rationalization costs, including the impairment or accelerated depreciation of assets. At this time, our full repositioning plan is preliminary and related expenses are not yet estimable.

For the three months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, restructuring charges totaled $3.7 million and $2.8 million, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, restructuring ~~and other similar~~ charges totaled ~~$5.1~~$6.8 million and ~~$7.8 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended September 30, 2016, restructuring and other similar charges totaled $4.4 million and $10.0~~$5.1 million, respectively. Refer to Item 1, Note 3, Restructuring and Other Similar Charges for further information.

~~Product Line Divestiture~~

During fiscal 2016, we decided to exit the non-strategic Rodney Hunt Fontaine (“RHF”) flow control gate product line. We completed the exit of the RHF product line in fiscal 2017. For purposes of comparison in the following discussion of results of operations, the RHF net sales for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 was $5.5 million and $12.0 million, respectively. Loss from operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2016 was $2.6 million and $7.1 million, respectively. The RHF product line exit did not impact results for the three and six months ended September 30, 2017.

Process & Motion Control

Process & Motion Control income from operations for the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 was ~~$44.7~~$56.4 million, or ~~14.9%~~16.2% of net sales. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales increased by ~~200~~150 basis points year over year, primarily due to the increase in core sales, ~~lower amortization expenses,~~RBS-led productivity gains and benefits ~~resulting~~ from ~~RBS-led productivity improvements, partially offset by higher incentive compensation accruals and incremental investments in~~ our ~~innovation, market expansion, and~~ footprint repositioning actions.

Water Management

Water Management income from operations was ~~$32.5~~$41.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018,~~2019, or ~~15.4%~~23.5% of net sales. Income from operations as a percentage of net sales ~~increased~~decreased by ~~270~~20 basis points year over year as ~~benefits from~~the benefit associated with incremental core sales ~~volume growth, favorable project mix,~~ and ~~ongoing cost reduction and productivity initiatives more than~~lower stock compensation expense was partially offset by incremental investments in our innovation, ~~and~~ market expansion ~~initiatives.~~and cost reduction initiatives and the lack of certain nonrecurring favorable items that affected the prior year quarter.

Corporate

Corporate expenses were ~~$11.4~~$16.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 and ~~$10.6~~$12.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018. The increase in corporate expenses is primarily ~~associated~~the result of the recognition of lease facility termination costs incurred in connection with our ongoing footprint optimization actions and higher year-over-year compensation-related costs (primarily stock-based compensation) relative to the second quarter of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net was ~~$20.2~~$18.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 compared to ~~$22.8~~$20.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018. The decrease in interest expense is a result of the impact of lower outstanding borrowings in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 following ~~a $195.0 million prepayment made on~~the refinancing of our ~~term loan in~~then-outstanding debt during the third quarter of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018. See Item 1, Note 1113 Long-Term Debt for more information.

Other ~~expense,~~income, net

Other ~~expense,~~income, net for the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018 consisted of foreign currency transaction losses. Other expense, net~~2019 was zero compared to $0.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal ~~2017 consisted~~2018. Other income, net consists primarily of foreign currency transaction ~~losses~~gains and the non-service cost components of ~~$0.2 million and other miscellaneous expenses of $0.5 million.~~net periodic benefit credits associated with our defined benefit plans.

Provision for income taxes

The income tax provision was ~~$14.8~~$17.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 compared to an income tax provision of ~~$4.4~~$15.6 million in the ~~second~~first quarter of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 was ~~33.2%~~27.4% versus ~~15.2%~~31.9% in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2017.~~2018. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 was above the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the accrual of foreign income taxes, which are generally above the U.S. federal statutory rate, the accrual of additional taxes associated with global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) and the accrual of various state income taxes, partially offset by the recognition of excess tax benefits associated with share-based payments. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 was below the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the recognition of net tax benefits associated with anthe accrual ~~for~~of the Domestic Production Activities Deduction ~~(DPAD)~~("DPAD") and the

recognition of certain foreign ~~branch-related~~branch related losses for U.S. income tax purposes, partially offset bywith an increase in valuation allowances relating to certain foreign net operating losses. The effective income tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal 2017 was below the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the recognition of net tax benefits associated with U.S. research and development credits, the recognition of a bad debt deduction for U.S. income tax purposes relating to an insolvent foreign subsidiary and the recognition of certain foreign branch-related losses for U.S. income tax purposes.

On a quarterly basis, we review and analyze our valuation allowances associated with deferred tax assets relating to certain foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards. In conjunction with this analysis, we weigh both positive and negative evidence for purposes of determining the proper balances of such valuation allowances. Future changes to the balances of these valuation allowances, as a result of our continued review and analysis, could result in a material impact to the financial statements for such period of change.

Net income ~~attributable to Rexnord common shareholders~~from continuing operations

Net income ~~attributable to Rexnord common shareholders~~from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018~~2019 was ~~$24.0~~$46.2 million, compared to net income from continuing operations of ~~$24.6~~$33.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2017,~~2018, as a result of the factors described above. Diluted net income per share ~~attributable to Rexnord common shareholders~~from continuing operations was ~~$0.23~~$0.37 in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018,~~2019, as compared to ~~$0.24~~diluted net income per share from continuing operations of $0.26 in the second quarter of fiscal ~~2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to supplement and not replace financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Core sales

Core sales excludes the impact of acquisitions (such as the ~~Cambridge acquisition)~~Centa and World Dryer acquisitions), divestitures ~~(such as the RHF product line exit)~~ and foreign currency translation. Management believes that core sales facilitates easier and more meaningful comparisons of our net sales performance with prior and future periods and to our peers. We exclude the effect of acquisitions and divestitures because the nature, size and number of acquisitions and divestitures can vary dramatically from period to period and between us and our peers, and can also obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult. We exclude the effect of foreign currency translation from this measure because the volatility of currency translation is not under management's control.

EBITDA

EBITDA represents earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is presented because it is an important supplemental measure of performance and it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. EBITDA is also presented and compared by analysts and investors in evaluating our ability to meet debt service obligations. Other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA differently. EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities or as a measure of liquidity or an alternative to net income as indicators of operating performance or any other measures of performance derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Because EBITDA is calculated before recurring cash charges, including interest expense and taxes, and is not adjusted for capital expenditures or other recurring cash requirements of the business, it should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to invest in the growth of the business.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA (as described below in “Covenant Compliance”) is an important measure because, under our credit agreement, our ability to incur certain types of acquisition debt and certain types of subordinated debt, make certain types of acquisitions or asset exchanges, operate our business and make dividends or other distributions, all of which will impact our financial performance, is impacted by our Adjusted EBITDA, as our lenders measure our performance with a net first lien leverage ratio by comparing our senior secured bank indebtedness to our Adjusted EBITDA (see “Covenant Compliance” for additional discussion of this ratio, including a reconciliation to our net income). We reported net ~~income available~~loss attributable to Rexnord common ~~shareholders~~stockholders in the six months ended September 30, ~~2017~~2018 of ~~$44.7~~$49.9 million and Adjusted EBITDA for the same period of ~~$184.1~~$219.8 million. See “Covenant Compliance” for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net (loss) income.

Covenant Compliance

Our credit agreement, which governs our senior secured credit facilities, contains, among other provisions, restrictive covenants regarding indebtedness, payments and distributions, mergers and acquisitions, asset sales, affiliate transactions, capital expenditures and the maintenance of certain financial ratios. Payment of borrowings under the credit agreement may be accelerated if there is an event of default. Events of default include the failure to pay principal and interest when due, a material breach of a representation or warranty, certain non-payments or defaults under other indebtedness, covenant defaults, events of bankruptcy and a change of control. Certain covenants contained in the credit agreement restrict our ability to take certain actions, such as incurring additional debt or making acquisitions, if we are unable to meet ~~certain maximum net first lien leverage ratios of 7.75 to 1.0 and, with respect to our revolving facility, also require us to remain at or below~~ a maximum total net leverage ratio of 6.75 to 1.0 as of the end of each fiscal quarter (it was ~~3.1~~2.7 to 1.0 at September 30, ~~2017)~~2018). Failure to comply with these covenants could limit our long-term growth prospects by hindering our ability to borrow under the revolver, to obtain future debt and/or to make acquisitions.

“Adjusted EBITDA” is the term we use to describe EBITDA as defined and adjusted in our credit agreement, which is net income, adjusted for the items summarized in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA is intended to show our unleveraged, pre-tax operating results and therefore reflects our financial performance based on operational factors, excluding non-operational, non-cash or non-recurring losses or gains. In view of our debt level, it is also provided to aid investors in understanding our compliance with our debt covenants. Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP, and our use of the term Adjusted EBITDA varies from others in our industry. This measure should not be considered as an alternative to net income, income from operations or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool, and ~~you~~ should not ~~consider it~~be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. For example, Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect: (a) our capital expenditures, future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (b) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; (c) the significant interest expenses, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt; (d) tax payments that represent a reduction in cash available to us; (e) any cash requirements for the assets being depreciated and amortized that may have to be replaced in the future; or (f) the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we and the lenders under our credit agreement may not consider indicative of our ongoing operations. In particular, our definition of Adjusted EBITDA allows us to add back certain non-cash, non-operating or non-recurring charges that are deducted in calculating net income, even though these are expenses that may recur, vary greatly and are difficult to predict and can represent the effect of long-term strategies as opposed to short-term results.

In addition, certain of these expenses can represent the reduction of cash that could be used for other corporate purposes. Further, although not included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA below, the measure may at times allow us to add estimated cost savings and operating synergies related to operational changes ranging from acquisitions or dispositions to ~~restructurings,~~restructuring, and/or exclude one-time transition expenditures that we anticipate we will need to incur to realize cost savings before such savings have occurred.

The calculation of Adjusted EBITDA under our credit agreement as of September 30, ~~2017~~2018 is presented in the table below. However, the results of such calculation could differ in the future based on the different types of adjustments that may be included in such respective calculations at the time.

Set forth below is a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to Rexnord common stockholders to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods indicated below.

ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk during the normal course of business from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The exposure to these risks is managed through a combination of normal operating and financing activities and derivative financial instruments in the form of foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and interest rate caps to cover certain known foreign currency transactional risks, as well as identified risks due to interest rate fluctuations. There have been no material changes in market risk from the information provided in "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our Form 10-K.


ITEM 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation as of September 30, ~~2017,~~2018, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are adequate and effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner allowing timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As such, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the period covered by this report.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of the changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 2.	UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

In fiscal 2015, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program") authorizing the repurchase of up to $200.0 million of the Company's common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The Repurchase Program does not require the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock and does not specify the timing of purchases or the prices to be paid; however, the program will continue until the maximum amount of dollars authorized have been expended or until it is modified or terminated by the Board. No shares were repurchased during the second quarter of fiscal ~~2018.~~2019. A total of approximately $160.0 million remained of the existing repurchase authority at September 30, ~~2017.~~2018.
