SPX FLOW, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED AND COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited; in millions, except per share data)



(1)    BASIS OF PRESENTATION
SPX FLOW, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“SPX FLOW,” ‘‘the Company,’’ “we,” “us,” or “our”) operate in three business segments and were wholly-owned by SPX Corporation (the “former Parent”) until September 26, 2015, at which time the former Parent distributed 100% of our outstanding common stock to its shareholders through a tax-free spin-off transaction (the “Spin-Off”).
Basis of Presentationsegments.
We prepared the condensed consolidated and combined financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules and regulations, certain footnotes or other financial information normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) can be condensed or omitted. InThe financial statements represent our accounts after the elimination of intercompany transactions and, in our opinion, these financial statements include the adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary for their fair presentation.
Our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of October 1, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and financial activity presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016 and of equity and cash flows for the nine months ended October 1, 2016, consist of the consolidated balances of SPX FLOW as an independent, publicly traded company as of and during the periods then ended. The basis of presentation for periods prior to the Spin-Off is discussed below. These financial statements, including the periods presented prior to the Spin-Off, have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, and the unaudited information included herein should be read in conjunction with our consolidated and combined financial statements included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
As discussed further in Note 3, segment results and corporate expense for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015 have been recast to (i) reflect the reclassification of certain product line results in order to more precisely present our results by reportable segment, (ii) include stock-based compensation costs associated with segment employees in segment income, and (iii) include stock-based compensation costs associated with corporate employees in corporate expense.

Certain operating cash flow amounts in the accompanying condensed combined statement of cash flows for the nine months ended September 26, 2015 have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Preparing financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimatesestimates. The unaudited information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the consolidated and interimcombined financial statements contained in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year results. Theresults and the condensed consolidated and combined financial statements may not be indicative of the Company’s future performance.
We establish actual interim closing dates using a fiscal calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on the Saturday closest to the end of the first calendar quarter, with the second and third quarters being 91 days in length. Our fourth quarter ends on December 31. The interim closing dates for the first, second and third quarters of 20162017 are April 1, July 1, and September 30, compared to the respective April 2, July 2, and October 1, compared to the respective March 28, June 27, and September 26, 20152016 dates. We had six moretwo less days in the first quarter of 20162017 and will have five less daysone more day in the fourth quarter of 20162017 than in the respective 20152016 periods.
Basis of Presentation Prior to the Spin-Off
Our condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015 and of equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 26, 2015, were prepared on a “carve out” basis and were derived from the condensed consolidated financial statements and accounting records of the former Parent and SPX FLOW for the historical periods presented. These condensed combined statements do not necessarily reflect what the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows would have been had SPX FLOW operated as an independent company for the historical periods reported.
The condensed combined statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015 included costs for certain centralized functions and programs provided and/or administered by the former Parent that were charged directly to the former Parent’s business units, including business units of SPX FLOW. These centralized functions and programs included, but were not limited to, information technology, payroll services, shared services for accounting, supply chain and manufacturing operations, and business and health insurance coverage. During the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015, $28.0

(Unaudited; in millions, except per share data)

and $81.0 of such costs, respectively, were directly charged to the Company's business units and were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed combined statements of operations.
For purposes of preparing these condensed combined statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015 and of equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 26, 2015, a portion of the former Parent’s total corporate expenses were allocated to SPX FLOW. These expense allocations included the cost of corporate functions and/or resources provided by the former Parent which included, but were not limited to, executive management, finance and accounting, legal, and human resources support, and the cost of our Charlotte, NC corporate headquarters and our Asia Pacific center in Shanghai, China, as well as related benefit costs associated with such functions, such as pension and postretirement benefits and stock-based compensation. During the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015, the Company was allocated $14.3 and $50.7 of such general corporate and related benefit costs, respectively, which were primarily included within selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed combined statements of operations.
A detailed description of the methodology used to allocate corporate-related costs is included in our consolidated and combined financial statements included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
(2)    NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The following is a summary of new accounting pronouncements that apply or may apply to our business.
In May 2014, and as subsequently amended, in the first six months of 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued a new standard on revenue recognition that outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the new standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in accordance with the transfer of control over those goods and services and in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard also requires a number of disclosures intended to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue, and the related cash flows. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluatingplan to adopt the effect that this new revenue standard will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that requires debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability to be reported in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This standard was adopted in the first quarter of 20162018 using the modified retrospective adoption method and was applied retrospectively. Thecontinue to evaluate the potential impacts to our revenues related to our pending adoption of this standard did notthe new revenue standard.
Amongst other impacts, the amended revenue recognition guidance will affect our current practice of accounting for certain contracts of specific product lines as revenue using the completed contract method under existing guidance. In certain instances, we engineer and manufacture goods that may have a material impact onno alternative use (absent significant costs to re-engineer the goods) and we have an enforceable right to payment for our condensed consolidated financial statements.performance over the life of the project. For such contracts, we expect to recognize revenue over time under the new guidance as compared with our current practice of using the completed contract method. In addition, we are revising our accounting policies to ensure proper recognition of such obligations that we consider perfunctory in nature and/or qualitatively and quantitatively immaterial under existing revenue guidance, but which may be considered significant within the context of the contract under the new revenue standard.
In January 2016, the FASB issued an amendment to existing guidance which revises entities’ accounting related to: (i) the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities, and (ii) the presentation of certain fair value changes for financial liabilities measured at fair value. The amendment also changes certain disclosure requirements associated with the fair value of financial instruments. The amended guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption. Early adoption is only permitted for a provision related to instrument-specific credit risk. We are currently evaluating the effect that this amendment will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

(Unaudited; in millions, except per share data)

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new standard which requires a lessee to recognize on its balance sheet the assets and liabilities associated with the rights and obligations created by leases with terms that exceed twelve months. Leases will continue to be classified as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the recognition, measurement and presentation of costs and cash flows arising from a lease. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and requires a modified retrospective approach to adoption for lessees related to capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect that this new standard will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued an amendment to clarify that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designated as a hedging instrument does not, in and of itself, require de-designation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. The amendment is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and may be applied on either a prospective or modified retrospective basis. The impact of the adoption of this amendment on our condensed consolidated financial statements will be based on any future events that impact our hedging relationships.

(Unaudited; in millions, except per share data)

In March 2016, the FASB issued an amendment which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. This amendment iswas effective for prospective interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We plan on adoptingadopted this amendment atduring the first quarter of 2017. We recognized a tax charge of $1.3 in our income tax provision during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 related to the vesting of certain restricted stock shares and restricted stock units during the period which, under previous guidance, would have been recognized as a reduction of paid-in capital. Consistent with our previous policy, we have elected to continue to accrue share-based compensation cost based on the number of awards that time and are currently evaluating its effect onexpected to vest (i.e., by assuming a forfeiture rate in our condensed consolidated financial statements.accrual of such cost). See Note 12 for additional information related to our adoption of this amendment.
In AugustOctober 2016, the FASB issued an amendment that updatesrequires recognition of the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of assets other than inventory. Under current authoritative guidance, the tax effects of intra-entity asset transfers (intercompany sales) are deferred until the transferred asset is sold to a third party or otherwise recovered through use. This amendment requires tax expense and deferred tax asset recognition from the intra-entity sale of the asset in the seller’s tax jurisdiction when the asset transfer occurs, even though the pre-tax effects of that transaction are eliminated in consolidation. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, but the guidance can only be adopted in the first interim period of the early-adopt fiscal year. We expect to adopt this amendment in the first quarter of 2018 using modified retrospective application, and expect to record a cumulative adjustment of approximately $4 (subject to foreign exchange) to accumulated deficit in our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2016, the FASB issued an amendment to guidance for statement of cash flow presentation, which requires that entities explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as to how certainrestricted cash receipts and payments should be presented and classified pertaining to, among other items, debt, contingent considerationor restricted cash equivalents in business combinations, proceeds from certain insurance settlements, distributions received from equity method investees, securitization transactions, and separately identifiablethe statement of cash flows. TheEntities will also be required to reconcile such total to amounts on the balance sheet and disclose the nature of the restrictions. This amendment is intended to reduce the existing diversity in practice and is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted, including retrospective application. We haveexpect to adopt this amendment in the first quarter of 2018 and do not expect a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued an amendment to post-acquisition accounting for goodwill which eliminates the requirement to perform a Step 2 impairment analysis to determine the implied fair value of goodwill. Rather, goodwill impairment charges will be calculated as the amount by which a reporting unit's carrying amount exceeds its fair value. This amendment is effective for any annual or interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this amendment asin the first quarter of 2017 and will perform our 2017 annual goodwill impairment test in accordance with the amended guidance.
In March 2017, the FASB issued an amendment to guidance on the presentation of net periodic pension and other postretirement benefit costs. Under the new rules, entities that sponsor defined benefit plans will present service costs with other employee compensation costs within operating income (or capitalize on the balance sheet, when applicable), while other components of net benefit cost will be presented separately (in one or more line items) outside of operating income and will not be eligible for capitalization. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted if adopted in the first interim period of the early-adopt fiscal year. We adopted this amendment in the first quarter of 2017 and have accordingly reclassified non-service pension and postretirement costs from “Selling, general and administrative” expense to “Other income (expense), net” in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016, respectively, as we believe this classification provides investors a more comparative presentation of our selling, general and have accordingly reflectedadministrative expense and operating results from period to period. As permitted by the amended guidance, we used amounts disclosed in our debt prepayment premiumsemployee benefit plans footnote for the

three and extinguishment costs as financing cash outflows during the nine months then ended.ended October 1, 2016 as the estimation basis for applying the restrospective presentation requirements. See Note 7 for additional information related to our adoption of the amendment.
In May 2017, the FASB issued an amendment to guidance to clarify when to account for a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the amended guidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions. The guidance is effective prospectively for all companies for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this amendment in the second quarter of 2017 and will evaluate future changes in share-based awards in accordance with the amended guidance as facts and circumstances require.
(3)    INFORMATION ON REPORTABLE SEGMENTS, CORPORATE EXPENSE AND OTHER
We are a global supplier of highly specialized, engineered solutions with operations in over 3530 countries and sales in over 150 countries around the world.  Many of our solutions play a role in helping to meet global demand for processed foods and beverages and power and energy, particularly in emerging markets.
Beginning January 2016, we changed our internal reporting structure to more precisely present reportable segment revenue and income in certain countries where we conduct business across multiple end markets. As a result of these structural enhancements, certain product line results have been reclassified between reportable segments. Additionally, we changed our measurement of segment income to include stock-based compensation costs associated with segment employees, while stock-based compensation for corporate employees is now reported as a component of corporate expense. These changes in reportable segment revenue and income, as well as in our measurement of segment profitability, are consistent with how our chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), beginning in 2016, assesses operating performance and allocates resources.
Segment results and corporate expense have been recast for all historical periods presented to reflect these changes.
We have three reportable segments: Food and Beverage, Power and Energy, and Industrial. In determining our segments, we apply the threshold criteria of the Segment Reporting Topic of the Codification to operating income or loss of each segment before considering impairment and special charges, pension and postretirement expenseservice costs and other indirect corporate expenses (including corporate stock-based compensation). This is consistent with the way our CODMchief operating decision maker evaluates the results of each segment.
Food and Beverage
The Food and Beverage reportable segment operates in a regulated, global industry with customers who demand highly engineered, turn-key solutions. Key demand drivers include dairy consumption, emerging market capacity expansion, sustainability and productivity initiatives, customer product innovation and food safety. Key products for the segment include mixing, drying, evaporation and separation systems and components, heat exchangers, and reciprocating and centrifugal pump technologies. We also design and construct turn-key systems that integrate many of these products for our customers. Our core brands include Anhydro, APV, Bran+Luebbe, Gerstenberg Schroeder, LIGHTNIN, Seital, and Waukesha Cherry-Burrell.
Power and Energy
The Power and Energy reportable segment primarily serves customers in the oil and gas industry and, to a lesser extent, the nuclear and other conventional power industries. A large portion of the segment's revenues are concentrated in oil extraction, production and transportation at existing wells, and in pipeline applications. The underlying driver of this segment includes demand for power and energy. Key products for the segment include pumps, valves and related accessories, while the core brands include APV, Bran+Luebbe, ClydeUnion Pumps, Copes-Vulcan, Dollinger Filtration, LIGHTNIN, M&J Valve, Plenty, and Vokes.
Industrial
The Industrial reportable segment primarily serves customers in the chemical, air treatment, mining, pharmaceutical, marine, shipbuilding, infrastructure construction, general industrial and water treatment industries. Key demand drivers of this segment are tied to macroeconomic conditions and growth in the respective end markets we serve. Key products for the segment

are air dryers, filtration equipment, mixers, pumps, hydraulic technologies and heat exchangers. Core brands include Airpel, APV, Bolting Systems, Delair, Deltech, Hankison, Jemaco, Johnson Pump, LIGHTNIN, Power Team, and Stone.
Corporate Expense
Corporate expense generally relates to the cost of our Charlotte, NCNorth Carolina corporate headquarters and our Asia Pacific center in Shanghai, China for the period subsequent to the Spin-Off, and includes allocations of the cost of corporate functions and/or resources provided by the former Parent prior to the Spin-Off. A detailed description of the methodology used to allocate corporate-related costs prior to the Spin-Off can be foundChina.

Global Realignment Program
As disclosed in our 20152016 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we are currently executing a multi-year plan to transition our enterprise to an operating company. As part of this plan, we announced our intent to further optimize our global footprint, streamline business processes and reduce selling, general and administrative expense through a global realignment program. The realignment program is intended to reduce costs across operating sites and corporate and global functions, in part by making structural changes and process enhancements which allow us to operate more efficiently. Special charges for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016 were substantially associated with this program and included costs

(1)In connection with our recastingThe carrying amount of historical reportable segment results in January 2016,goodwill included $255.5 and $241.1 of accumulated impairments as discussed further in Note 3, we performed a re-allocation of reportable segment goodwill during the first quarter of 2016. This re-allocation resulted in the following changes in goodwill compared to amounts previously reported atSeptember 30, 2017 and December 31, 2015 by reportable segment: Food and Beverage goodwill reduction of $5.6, Power and Energy goodwill reduction of $4.0, and Industrial goodwill increase of $9.6.2016, respectively.
(2)The carrying amount of goodwill included $250.4 and $0.0 of accumulated impairments as of October 1, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.
(3)The carrying amount of goodwill included $67.7 of accumulated impairments as of October 1, 2016September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2015.2016.
As of the first day of our fiscal fourth quarter of 2015,2016, we performed our annual goodwill impairment test, which indicated the estimated fair value of our Power and Energy reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 4%. Our assumptions in our annual impairment test included, among others, that (i) 2017 revenues would decline between 10%. to 15% as a result of lower backlog and 2017 order rates would remain consistent with those experienced in the second half of 2016, (ii) 2017 targeted cost savings would be executed as planned with incremental cash savings expected in 2018 and beyond, (iii) a discount rate of 10.5%, (iv) expanded current and forward EBITDA multiples associated with recent oil and gas industry transactions, which suggested higher valuation multiples than historical averages for the industry, and (v) changes in working capital continuing to correlate with order and revenue trends. The estimated fair value of each of our other reporting units significantly exceeded its respective book value.
Over the courseA change in any of the fourth quarter of 2015, global oil prices continued to decline, resultingassumptions used in delayed customertesting Power and Energy's goodwill for impairment (e.g., projected order, patterns.  Based on these slower order rates at the end of the fourth quarter, we lowered the 2016 forecasted revenue and profitability of ourprofit growth rates, discount rate, industry valuation multiples, expected control premium, etc.) could result in Power and Energy segment. The combination of adverse market conditions, lower order trends, and resultant impact to our 2016 forecast subsequent to our annual goodwill impairment test led management to conclude an interim impairment test of our Power and Energy reporting unit was necessary as of December 31, 2015. 
The results of our interim goodwill impairment test conducted as of December 31, 2015 indicated theEnergy's estimated fair value of the Power and Energy reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by approximately 3%, while the carrying value of the Power and Energy segment goodwill was $538.9 as of December 31, 2015. Our assumptions in the December 31, 2015 interim impairment test included, among others, that (i) first half 2016 order trends would remain comparable to those obtained in the fourth quarter of 2015, (ii) targeted cost savings could be executed as planned and cost savings would, in part, be realized by the end of 2016, and (iii) current and forward EBITDA multiples would remain consistent with oil and gas industry transactions observed in the preceding twelve months.
During the second quarter of 2016, our Power and Energy reporting unit experienced sustained quarterly order rates below order intake levels in the fourth quarter of 2015 and operating results which were below our internal estimates. As a result of the lower order patterns and lower year-to-date earnings of the reporting unit, we revised our 2016 projections below the bottom end of the range utilized in our fourth quarter 2015 interim impairment test, leading us to conclude that an interim impairment test as of July 2, 2016 was necessary.
Using revised cash flow projections as of July 2, 2016, market participant discount rates, and EBITDA multiples observed of peer companies and in recent transactions in the oil and gas industry, we determined the “step one” fair value of our Power and Energy reporting unit was belowbeing less than the carrying value of its net assets.  In “step two” ofFor example, a one-hundred basis point increase in the discount rate used in determining Power and Energy's discounted cash flows in our 2016 annual goodwill impairment test we estimated the impliedwould have resulted in Power and Energy's fair value being approximately $27 lower than the carrying value of Power and Energy’s goodwillits net assets as of July 2, 2016, which resulted in an impairment charge related to such goodwillthe date of $252.8. The non-recurring fair value measurement is a "Level 3" measurement under the fair value hierarchy as further defined in Note 14.
Management assessed the operating performance of each of our other reporting units and concluded that an interim impairment test as of July 2, 2016 for the other reporting units was not necessary.

fourth quarter test.
As of October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, there were no indicators necessitating an interim impairment test of any of our reporting units, based on management's review of operating performance.
We will perform our annual impairment testing of goodwill (and indefinite-lived intangible assets that are not amortized), during the fourth quarter of 2017 in conjunction with our annual financial planning process. In performing that annual impairment testing, we will assess, among other items, order trends and the operating cash flow performance of our reporting units, including Power and Energy. Adverse changes to or a failure to achieve the updated order rates or cash flow projectionsbusiness plans included in the interimour 2016 annual impairment test as of July 2, 2016 of our Power and Energy reporting unit, as discussed above, or further deterioration of macroeconomic conditions including significant downward price pressure on global oil prices, lower customer capital spending estimates, and/or significant declines in industry multiples, could result in future impairments, which could be material.
During the second quarter of 2016, we recorded an interim goodwill impairment charge of $252.8 as a result of lower than expected order patterns and lower year-to-date earnings of our Power and Energy reporting unit.

At October 1, 2016,As of September 30, 2017, the net carrying value of intangible assets with determinable lives consisted of the following by reportable segment: $79.0$76.4 in Power and Energy, $66.0$53.7 in Food and Beverage, and $28.5$25.0 in Industrial. During the three months ended October 1, 2016, $5.2 of technology assets were reclassified from the Industrial segment to the Food and Beverage segment in connection with the relocation of a manufacturing facility in Denmark to an existing facility in Poland, as also discussed in Note 4. Trademarks with indefinite lives consisted of the following by reportable segment: $99.5$101.4 in Food and Beverage, $60.6$61.4 in Industrial, and $45.7$35.6 in Power and Energy.
No impairment charges were recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Changes in the gross carrying values of trademarks and other identifiable intangible assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 related to foreign currency translation.
During the second quarter of 2016, as described in the “Goodwill” section above, we observed sustained quarterly order rates for Power and Energy below order intake levels in the fourth quarter of 2015 and operating results below our previous expectations, and thus determined an interim test of recoverability was required for the definite and indefinite-lived intangibles of that reporting segment. Based on market conditions as of July 2, 2016 and backlog positions falling below prior periods, we reduced our estimates of the expected future revenues from recorded intangible assets in the Power and Energy reporting unit.
In accordance with relevant guidance, we estimated the undiscounted cash flows of our customer relationships by projecting revenues and margin driven by customer relationships, reduced by an estimated retention rate. We estimated the undiscounted cash flows of our technology assets by applying estimated royalty rates to revenues projected to result from each of such underlying assets. The undiscounted cash flows of customer relationships and technology assets were less than their respective carrying values. In “step two” of the impairment test, we discounted expected cash flows from the customer relationships and technology assets at a rate of return that reflects current market conditions. As a result, we recorded impairment charges of $115.9 related to customer relationships and $30.9 related to technology assets during the second quarter of 2016.

Components of Net Periodic Pension and Postretirement Benefit Expense (Income)
In connection with the Spin-Off, we assumed certain domestic nonqualified pension obligations from the former Parent and formed a new nonqualified plan, resulting in the remeasurement of such obligations as of September 26, 2015 and recognition of an actuarial loss of $7.4. This actuarial loss was recorded as a component of "Selling, general, and administrative" expense during the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015 in the accompanying condensed consolidated and combined statements of operations. In addition to the actuarial loss recognized, we recorded $0.0 and $0.2 of netNet periodic benefit expense related to the(income) for our foreign pension plans and our domestic pension and postretirement plan we sponsorplans for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015, respectively.

The settlement and remeasurement of this plan resulted in the recognition of a $0.8 actuarial gain during the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016. In addition to the actuarial gain recognized, we recorded net periodic benefit expense for the domestic pension and postretirement plans we sponsor of $0.3 and $1.4 for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016 respectively, which was comprised of service and interest costs.included the following components:
The net periodic pension benefit expense for the foreign pension plans we sponsor was $0.5 and $0.8 for the three months ended October 1, 2016 and September 26, 2015, respectively, and $1.5 and $2.2, respectively, for the nine months then ended, and was comprised primarily of service and interest costs.
Net periodic benefit cost allocated to the Company related to the plans sponsored by the former Parent was $0.8 and $1.2 for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015, respectively.

On October 31, 2017, we made a voluntary principal prepayment in the amount of $80.0 under the term loan facility. As a result of the prepayment, the outstanding principal amount on the term loan decreased to $295.0. The payment was funded by cash on hand and, to a lesser extent, short-term debt of $20.0. There was no penalty associated with the prepayment.
(2)On August 10, 2016, we completed the redemption of all of our 6.875% senior notes due in August 2017 for a total redemption price of $636.4. As a result of the redemption, we recorded a charge of $38.9 to "Loss on early extinguishment of debt" during the third quarter of 2016, which related to premiums paid to redeem the senior notes of $36.4, the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees of $1.9, and other costs associated with the extinguishment of the senior notes of $0.6.

The purchase card program allows for payment beyond customary payment terms for goods and services acquired under the program. As this arrangement extends the payment of these purchases beyond their normal payment terms through third-party lending institutions, we have classified these amounts as short-term debt.

Amendment of Senior Credit Facilities
On July 11, 2016, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Company’s existing senior credit facilities, dated as of September 1, 2015 (the “Existing Senior Credit Facilities” and, as amended by the First Amendment, the “Senior Credit Facilities”), by and among the Company, the foreign subsidiary borrowers

party thereto, the lenders party thereto, Deutsche Bank AG Deutschlandgeschäft Branch, as foreign trade facility agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”). The First Amendment amended the Existing Senior Credit Facilities to, among other things:
increase the maximum consolidated leverage ratio that must be maintained by the Company from 3.25:1.00 (or 3.50:1.00 for the four fiscal quarters after certain permitted acquisitions) to 4.00:1.00;
require that the Company and the domestic subsidiary guarantors grant to the Administrative Agent valid and perfected first priority security interests in substantially all personal property assets of the Company and the domestic subsidiary guarantors (subject to certain exceptions) and valid first priority mortgages on all domestic real property owned by the Company and the domestic subsidiary guarantors having a fair market value in excess of $10.0; and
include an additional pricing tier of per annum fees charged and amend the interest rate margins applicable to Eurodollar and alternate base rate loans.
The Senior Credit Facilities continue to provide that, if the Company’s corporate credit rating is “Baa3” or better by Moody’s or “BBB-” or better by S&P and no defaults would exist, then all collateral security will be released and the obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities will be unsecured.
New Senior Notes
On August 10, 2016, the Company completed its issuance of $600.0 in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes comprised of one tranche of $300.0 aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior notes due in August 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) and one tranche of $300.0 aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior notes due in August 2026 (the “2026 Notes” and, together with the 2024 Notes, the “Notes”). The proceeds of the Notes, together with borrowings under our domestic revolving loan facility, were used to complete the tender offer and repurchase/redemption of the $600.0 outstanding principal amount of our 6.875% senior notes due in August 2017, including $36.4 of premiums paid. The Notes were issued pursuant to indentures, each dated August 10, 2016, among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors named therein and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Indentures”). The interest payment dates for the Notes are February 15 and August 15 of each year, with interest payable in arrears. The Notes were offered in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and to certain non-U.S. persons in transactions outside of the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.
The Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time prior to maturity at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus an applicable premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest. If we experience certain types of change of control transactions, we must offer to repurchase the Notes at 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
The Notes are unsecured and rank equally with all our existing and future unsubordinated unsecured senior indebtedness, and are effectively junior to our senior credit facilities and trade receivables financing arrangement. The Notes are guaranteed by all of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee our senior credit facilities, subject to certain exceptions. The likelihood of our domestic subsidiaries having to make payments under the guarantee is considered remote.
Each of the Indentures contains covenants that limit the Company’s (and its subsidiaries’) ability to, among other things: (i) grant liens on its assets; (ii) enter into sale and leaseback transactions; and (iii) consummate mergers or transfer certain of its assets.
(10)(9)    DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency ("FX") exchange rates. Our objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency-denominated cash flows and to minimize the impact of changes as a result of currency fluctuations. Our principal currency exposures relate to the Euro, Chinese Yuan and Great BritainBritish Pound.
We had FX forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $41.8$36.1 and $44.7$28.0 outstanding as of October 1, 2016September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2015,2016, respectively, with all such contracts scheduled to mature within one year. We also had FX embedded derivatives with an aggregate notional amount of $26.9 and $31.6 at October 1, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, with scheduled maturities of $22.6, $3.3 and $1.0 within one, two and three years, respectively.

There were no unrealized gains or losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to FX forward contracts were $0.0 and less than $0.1 as of October 1, 2016September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2015,2016, respectively. The net gains (losses) recorded in "Other income (expense), net" related to FX gains (losses) totaled $0.1$(0.4) and $(0.1)$0.1 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016, and September 26, 2015, respectively, and $(2.9)$(3.8) and $0.1$(2.9) for the nine months then ended.
We enter into arrangements designed to provide the right of setoff in the event of counterparty default or insolvency, and have elected to offset the fair values of our FX forward contracts in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The gross fair values of our FX forward contracts and FX embedded derivatives, in aggregate, were $3.3$2.2 and $2.0$2.9 (gross assets) and $1.2$0.1 and $1.5$0.1 (gross liabilities) at October 1, 2016September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2015,2016, respectively.
(11)(10)    EQUITY AND STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Income (Loss) Per Share
Prior to the Spin-Off, SPX FLOW had no common shares outstanding. On September 26, 2015, 41.322 SPX FLOW common shares were distributed to the former Parent's shareholders in conjunction with the Spin-Off. For comparative purposes, basic shares outstanding reflect this amount in all periods presented prior to the Spin-Off.  For purposes of computing dilutive shares, unvested SPX FLOW awards at the Spin-Off date were assumed to have been issued and outstanding from January 1, 2015.  The resulting number of weighted-average dilutive shares has been used for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015. The following table sets forth the number of weighted average shares outstanding used in the computation of basic and diluted income (loss) per share:

(1)For the three and nine months ended October September 30, 2017, 0.187 and 0.206, respectively, of unvested restricted stock shares and restricted stock units were not included in the computation of diluted income per share because required internal performance thresholds for vesting (as discussed in our consolidated and combined financial statements included in our 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K) were not met. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, 0.355 and 0.361, respectively, of stock options outstanding were excluded from the computation of diluted income per share because their exercise price was greater than the average market price of common shares. For the three and nine months ended October��1, 2016, an aggregate of 0.747 and 0.796, respectively, of unvested restricted stock shares, restricted stock units, and stock options outstanding were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as we incurred a net loss during the periods. For the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, the number of anti-dilutive unvested restricted stock shares and restricted stock units outstanding excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share was 0.119 and 0.290, respectively. For the three months ended September 26, 2015, an aggregate of 0.998 unvested restricted stock shares, restricted stock units, and stock options outstanding were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share as we incurred a net loss during the period. For the nine months ended September 26, 2015, 0.479 of unvested restricted stock shares/units were not included in the computation of diluted income per share because required market thresholds for vesting (as discussed in our consolidated and combined financial statements included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K) were not met. For the nine months ended September 26, 2015, 0.396 of stock options were not included in the computation of diluted income per share because their exercise price was greater than the average market price of common shares.
Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to the Spin-Off,September 26, 2015, at which time SPX Corporation (the "former Parent") distributed 100% of our outstanding common stock to its shareholders through a tax-free spin-off transaction (the "Spin-Off"), eligible employees of the Company participated in theour former Parent’s share-based compensation plan pursuant to which they were granted share-based awards of the former Parent'sits stock. TheOur former Parent’s share-based compensation plan included awards for restricted stock shares, restricted stock units and stock options. Compensation expense for share-based awards recorded by the Company prior to the Spin-Off includes the expense associated with the employees historically attributable to the Company’s operations, as well as an allocation of stock-based compensation expense for the former Parent’s corporate employees who provided certain centralized support functions.
In connection with the Spin-Off, outstanding equity-based awards granted to SPX FLOW employees under theour former Parent's plan were converted into awards of the Company using a formula designed to preserve the intrinsic value of the awards immediately prior to the Spin-Off. This conversion did not result in additional compensation expense. Additionally, certain restricted stock units granted to employees in 2013 and 2014, none of whom were named executive officers at the time, were modified at the Spin-Off date to provide a minimum vesting equivalent to 50% of the underlying units at the end of the applicable remaining service periods. Compensation expense of $0.3 and $0.9 related to the modification was recognized in the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, and the remainingcompensation expense of $0.3 related to the modification will bewas recognized overduring the remaining service periodsremainder of the related awards.

2016.
Since the Spin-Off, SPX FLOW stock-based compensation awards may be granted to certain eligible employees or non-employee directors under the SPX FLOW Stock Compensation Plan (the “Stock Plan”).  Under the Stock Plan, up to 2.1071.354 unissued shares of our common stock were available for future grant as of October 1, 2016.September 30, 2017. The Stock Plan permits the issuance of authorized but unissued shares or shares from treasury upon the exercise of options, vesting of restricted stock units, or granting of restricted

Restricted stock shares or restricted stock units may be granted to certain eligible employees or non-employee directors in accordance with the Stock Plan and applicable award agreements. Subject to participants' continued service and other award terms and conditions, the restrictions lapse and awards generally vest over a period of time, generally three years (or one year for awards to non-employee directors). In some instances, such as death, disability, or retirement, awards may vest concurrently with or following an employee's termination. Approximately half of thesuch restricted stock shares and restricted stock unit awards vest based on performance thresholds, while the remaining portion vest based on the passage of time since grant date.
Eligible employees, including officers, receivedwere granted 2017 target performance awards primarily during the three months ended April 2, 20161, 2017 in which the employee can earn between 50% and 150% of the target performance award in the event, and to the extent, the award meets the required performance vesting criteria. Such awards are generally subject to the employees’ continued employment during the three-year vesting period, and may be completely forfeited if the threshold performance criteria are not met. Vesting for the 20162017 target performance awards is based on SPX FLOW shareholder return versus the performance of a composite group of companies, as established under the awards (the "Composite Group"), over the three-year period from January 1, 20162017 through December 31, 2018.2019. In addition, certain eligible employees, including officers, were granted 2017 awards during the three months ended April 1, 2017 that vest subject to attainment of stated improvements in a three-year average annual return on invested capital (as defined) measured at the conclusion of the measurement period ending December 31, 2019 (including eligible employees’ continued employment during the measurement period). These target performance and internal performance metric awards were issued as restricted stock units to eligible non-officer employees and restricted stock shares to eligible officers.
Eligible non-officer employees also receivedwere granted 2017 restricted stock unit awards primarily during the three months ended April 2, 20161, 2017 that vest ratably over three years, subject to the passage of time and the employees’ continued employment during such period. In some instances, such as death, disability, or retirement, awards may vest concurrently with or following an employee's termination. Eligible officers receivedwere granted restricted stock share awards in the three months ended April 2, 20161, 2017 that vest subject to an internal performance metric during the first year of the award and thenthat also require the completion ofcontain a two-yearthree-year holding period afterfrom the first yeargrant of the award (including eligible officers’whereby the holding period is generally released ratably over the three years (subject to a participant's continued employment during that period), before issuance to the eligible officers..
Non-employee directors received restricted stock share awards in the three months ended July 2, 20161, 2017 that vest at the close of business on the day before the date of the Company's next regular annual meeting of shareholders held after the date of the grant, subject to the passage of time and the directors' continued service during such period.

Restricted stock shares and restricted stock units that do not vest within the applicable vesting period are forfeited.
Stock options may be granted to eligible employees in the form of incentive stock options or nonqualified stock options. The option price per share may be no less than the fair market value of our common stock at the close of business on the date of grant. Upon exercise, the employee has the option to surrender previously owned shares at current value in payment of the exercise price and/or for withholding tax obligations.

The recognition of compensation expense for share-based awards is based on their grant-date fair values. The fair value of each award is amortized over the lesser of the award's requisite or derived service period, which is generally up to three years as noted above. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016, and September 26, 2015, we recognized compensation expense related to share-based programs in “Selling, general and administrative” expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated and combined statements of operations as follows:

Restricted Stock Share and Restricted Stock Unit Awards
The Monte Carlo simulation model valuation technique was used to determine the fair value of our restricted stock shares and restricted stock units that contain a “market condition.” The Monte Carlo simulation model utilizes multiple input variables that determine the probability of satisfying the market condition stipulated in the award and calculates the fair value of each restricted stock share and restricted stock unit award.

In connection with the Spin-Off, certain corporate employees of the former Parent became employees of the Company. The number of outstanding SPX FLOW stock options, after reflecting (i) the former Parent stock options that had been granted to such corporate employees of the former Parent on January 2, 2015, and (ii) the conversion of the former Parent stock options to SPX FLOW stock options, was 0.396. After reflecting 0.025 of forfeitures during the fourth quarter of 2015, there were 0.371 of SPX FLOW options outstanding as of October 1, 2016 and December 31, 2015, of which 0.285 were exercisable as of October 1, 2016.
As a result of the conversion of the stock options, the weighted-average exercise price per share of the SPX FLOW stock options is $61.29 and the weighted-average grant-date fair value per share of the SPX FLOW stock options is $19.33.

The primary component of accumulated other comprehensive loss as of October 1, 2016 and December 31, 2015, was foreign currency translation adjustment. The unrealized losses, net of tax, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to FX forward contracts were $0.0 and less than $0.1 as of October 1, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, related solely to foreign currency translation adjustment.
Changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015, related primarily to foreign currency translation adjustment of $(43.1) and $(135.0), respectively. See the condensed consolidated and combined statement of comprehensive loss for other changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015.

(12)(11)    LITIGATION, CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND OTHER MATTERS
We are subject to litigation matters that arise in the normal course of business. We believe these matters are either without merit or of a kind that should not have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
We are subject to domestic and international environmental protection laws and regulations with respect to our business operations and are operating in compliance with, or taking action aimed at ensuring compliance with, these laws and regulations.

Mezzanine Equity
Independent noncontrolling shareholders in certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company have put options under their respective joint venture operating agreements that allow these minority shareholdersthem to sell their common stock to the controlling shareholders (wholly owned(wholly-owned subsidiaries of SPX Flow, Inc.)FLOW) upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the passage of time. The respective carrying values presented in Mezzanine Equity"Mezzanine equity" of our condensed consolidated balance sheetsheets as of October 1,September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are stated at the the current exercise value of the put options, irrespective of whether the options are currently exercisable. To the extent the noncontrolling interests' put option price is correlated with the estimated fair value of the subsidiary, we have used the market method to estimate such fair values. This represents a level 3 fair value measurement. None of the noncontrolling interest put options are exercisable at this time. If and when such options are exercised, we expect to settle the option value in cash.

(13)(12)    INCOME TAXES
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
As of October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $14.8$6.7 (net unrecognized tax benefits of $5.5)$2.3), of which $5.5,$2.3, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate.
We classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of our income tax provision. As of October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, gross accrued interest totaled $1.8$0.3 (net accrued interest of $1.8)$0.3), and there was no accrual for penalties included in our unrecognized tax benefits.
Based on the outcome of certain examinations or as a result of the expiration of statutes of limitations for certain jurisdictions, we believe that within the next 12 months it is reasonably possible that our previously unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $1.0$0.0 to $3.0.$1.5. The previously unrecognized tax benefits relate to a variety of tax issues, including transfer pricing and non-U.S. income tax matters.
The unrecognized tax benefits described above represent amounts that were included in tax returns filed by the Company. Historically, a portion of the Company's operations were included in tax returns filed by the former Parent or its subsidiaries that were not part of the Spin-Off. As a result, some uncertain tax positions related to the Company's operations resulted in unrecognized tax benefits that are now potential obligations of the former Parent or its subsidiaries due tothat were part of the Spin-Off. Because activities that gave rise to these unrecognized tax benefits related to the Company's operations for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015, the impact of these items was recorded to "Income tax provision" within our condensed combined statements of operations, with the offset recorded to "Former parent company investment" within our condensed combined balance sheets prior to the Spin-Off date, which have been reclassified to "Paid-in capital" in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015.
In addition, some of the Company's tax returns previously included the operations of the former Parent's subsidiaries that were not part of the Spin-Off. In certain of these cases, thethese subsidiaries' activities gave rise to unrecognized tax benefits for which the

Company could be potentially liable. When required under the Income Taxes Topic of the Codification, we have recorded a liability for these uncertain tax positions within our condensed consolidated balance sheets. However, since the potential obligations were the result of activities associated with operations that were not part of the Spin-Off, we have not reflected any related amounts within our "Income tax provision" for the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015, but have instead recorded the amounts directly to "Former parent company investment" within our condensed combined balance sheets prior to the Spin-Off date, which have been reclassified to "Paid-in capital" in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015.
Other Tax Matters
During the three months ended October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, we recorded an income tax provision of $9.6 on $22.6 of pre-tax income, resulting in an effective tax rate of 42.5%. This compares to an income tax benefit for the three months ended October 1, 2016 of $26.9 on $31.1 of pre-tax loss, resulting in an effective tax rate of 86.5%.

We review our income tax positions on a continuous basis and record a provisionunrecognized tax benefits for potential uncertain positions when we determine that an uncertain position meets the criteria of the Income Taxes Topic of the Codification. As events change and resolutions occur, adjustments are made to amounts previously provided, such as in the case of audit settlements with taxing authorities.
In connection with the Spin-Off, we and the former Parent entered into a Tax Matters Agreement which, among other matters, addresses the allocation of certain tax adjustments that might arise upon examination of the 2013, 2014 and the pre-Spin-Off portion of the 2015 federal income tax returns of the former Parent. None of those returns isare currently under examination, and we believe any contingencies have been adequately provided for.
State income tax returns generally are subject to examination for a period of three to five years after filing the respective tax returns. The impact on such tax returns of any federal changes remains subject to examination by various states for a period of up to one year after formal notification to the states. We have various state income tax returns in the process of examination or administrative appeal. We believe any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.appropriately reflected as unrecognized tax benefits.
We have various non-U.S. income tax returns under examination. The most significant of these is the examination in Germany for the 2010 through 2014 tax years. We expect this examination will conclude in 2018. We believe that any uncertain tax positions related to these examinations have been adequately provided for.appropriately reflected as unrecognized tax benefits.
An unfavorable resolution of one or more of the above matters could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or cash flows in the quarter and year in which an adjustment is recorded or the tax is due or paid. As audits and examinations are still in process or we have not yet reached the final stages of the appeals process, the timing of the ultimate resolution and any payments that may be required for the above matters cannot be determined at this time.

(13)     FAIR VALUE
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In the absence of active markets for the identical assets or liabilities, such measurements involve developing assumptions based on market observable data and, in the absence of such data, internal information consistent with what market participants would use in a hypothetical transaction that occurs at the measurement date. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our market assumptions. Preference is given to observable inputs. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 — Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.
There were no changes during the periods presented to the valuation techniques we use to measure asset and liability fair values on a recurring basis. There were no transfers between the three levels of the fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016 and September 26, 2015.2016.
The following section describes the valuation methodologies we use to measure different financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis.

Derivative Financial Instruments
Our derivative financial assets and liabilities include FX forward contracts and FX embedded derivatives, valued using valuation models based on observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and the credit risk of our counterparties, which comprise investment-grade financial institutions. Based on these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. We have not made any adjustments to the inputs obtained from the independent sources. Based on our continued ability to enter into forward contracts, we consider the markets for our fair value instruments active. We primarily use the income approach, which uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount.
As of October 1, 2016September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2015,2016, the gross fair values of our derivative financial assets and liabilities, in aggregate, were $3.3$2.2 and $2.0$2.9 (gross assets) and $1.2$0.1 and $1.5$0.1 (gross liabilities), respectively. As of October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, there had been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative liabilities due to our own credit risk as the related instruments are collateralized under our senior credit facilities. Similarly, there had been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative assets based on our evaluation of our counterparties’ credit risks.

Until June 2017, we had an investment in Equity Securities
Certain of our investments inan equity securitiessecurity that are not readily marketable arewas accounted for under the fair value option, but not readily marketable, and aretherefore which was classified as a Level 3 assetsasset in the fair value hierarchy, with such values determined by multidimensional pricing models. These models consider market activityhierarchy. In April 2017, we entered into an agreement to sell our investment in the equity security to a third party, and the security’s value as of the end of the first quarter of 2017 reflected the sales price under this agreement. We received proceeds from the sale of the equity security during the second quarter of 2017. In prior periods, we based the security's fair value on modeling of securities with similar credit quality, duration, yield and structure. Aa variety of inputs, are used, including benchmark yields, reported trades, non-binding broker/dealer quotes, issuer spread and reference data including market research publications.historical trade prices of the same securities. Market indicators and industry and economic events arewere also considered. We have not made any adjustments to the inputs obtained from the independent sources.

Mezzanine Equity
To the extent the noncontrolling interests' put option price is correlated with the estimated fair value of the subsidiary, we use the market method to estimate the fair values of noncontrolling interest put options reported in "Mezzanine equity" using unobservable inputs (Level 3) on a recurring basis. Changes to the noncontrolling interest put option values are reflected as adjustments to "Mezzanine equity" and "Retained earnings (accumulated deficit)."Accumulated deficit." Refer to Note 1211 for further discussion.
Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible and Other Long-Lived Assets
Certain of our non-financial assets are subject to impairment analysis, including long-lived assets, indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. We review the carrying amounts of such assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable or at least annually for indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. Any resulting impairment would require that the asset be recorded at its fair value. At December 31, 2015,September 30, 2017, we did not have any significant non-financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis. Refer to Note 6 for further discussion pertaining to our annual and interim evaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment, including the goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge recognized during the nine months ended October 1, 2016.

The following methods and assumptions were used in estimating the fair value of these financial instruments:
The fair values of the term loan and senior notes were determined using Level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy and were based on quoted market prices for the same or similar instruments or on current rates offered to us for debt with similar maturities, subordination and credit default expectations.
The fair values of amounts outstanding under our domestic revolving loan facility, term loan, and trade receivables financing arrangement approximated carrying value due primarily to the variable-rate nature and credit spreads of ourthese instruments, when compared to other similar instruments.
The fair values of other indebtedness approximated carrying value due primarily to the short-term nature of these instruments.

These initiatives are designedglobal functions, in part by making structural changes and process enhancements which allow us to among other things, capture synergies withinoperate more efficiently. We made significant progress reducing our businesses to ultimately drive revenue, profit margin and cash flow growth. We believe our businesses are well-positioned for long-term growth based on our operating initiatives, the potential within the current markets servedcost structure through 2016 and the potential for expansion into additional markets.first nine months of 2017, realigning our footprint and streamlining our functional support globally.
We have aligned our segment teams to focus primarily on developing intimate customer relationships and expanding our relevance to customers within each end market. The key areas our end market teams are emphasizing include (i) product management, (ii) channel development, (iii) engineering customer solutions and (iv) project execution and delivery. We made substantial progress in certain of these areas during 2016 and the first nine months of 2017, and have plans to further streamline our operations to simplify and reduce our cost structure. Our ultimate goal is to create a more customer-centric, service-oriented organization and deliver greater value to our customers, investors and employees.
Our business is organized into three reportable segments — Food and Beverage, Power and Energy, and Industrial. The following summary describes the products and services offered by each of our reportable segments:
Food and Beverage:  The Food and Beverage reportable segment operates in a regulated, global industry with customers who demand highly engineered, turn-key solutions. Key demand drivers include dairy consumption, emerging market capacity expansion, sustainability and productivity initiatives, customer product innovation and food safety. Key products for the segment include mixing, drying, evaporation and separation systems and components, heat exchangers, and reciprocating and centrifugal pump technologies. We also design and construct turn-key systems that integrate many of these products for our customers.

Summary of Operating Results
Non-GAAP Measures - Throughout the following segment discussion, we use organic revenue growth (decline) to facilitate explanation of the operating performance of our segments. Organic revenue growth (decline) is a non-GAAP financial measure, and is not a substitute for net revenue growth (decline). Refer to the explanation of this measure and purpose of use by management under “Results of Operations-Non-GAAP Measures.”
The financial information discussed below and included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not necessarily reflect what our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows would have been had we been operated as a separate, independent entity during the periods presented prior to the Spin-Off, or what our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be in the future.
The following summary is intended to provide a few highlights of the discussion and analysis that follows (all comparisons are to the related periodsperiod in the prior year):
Revenues — For the three months ended September 30, 2017, revenues increased $24.3 (5.2%). The increase in revenues was due primarily to increased sales of valves and pumps used in midstream oil applications and aftermarket parts and services in our Power and Energy segment and, to a lesser extent, increased sales of heat exchangers and hydraulic tools in our Industrial segment, as well as the effects of a weakening of the U.S. dollar against various foreign currencies in the third quarter of 2017 relative to the third quarter of 2016.

For the nine months ended October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, revenues decreased 20.8% and 15.5%, respectively,$78.3 (5.2%). The decrease in revenues was due primarily as a result of the impacts of lowerto reduced customer capital investments, particularly in oil and dairy pricesrelated markets, and reflects the lower levels of backlog of each of our segments as of the beginning of 2017 when compared to the beginning of 2016, which were $784.1 and $905.0 on revenues.a consolidated basis, respectively.
Income (Loss) before Income Taxes The lossIncome before income taxes improved from a loss of $31.1 forin the three months ended October 1, 2016 includesto income of $22.6 in the three months ended September 30, 2017. The pre-tax loss in the 2016 period included a charge of $38.9 related to a loss onthe early extinguishment of debt, (see Note 9 toas a result of our condensed consolidatedredemption and combined financial statements for further details related to this charge).refinancing in August 2016 of previously outstanding 6.875% senior notes that were due in August 2017. The reductionincrease in pre-tax income for the three month period, compared to the respective 20152016 period, primarily resulted from there being no similar charge in the loss on early extinguishment of debt,2017 period and, to a declinelesser extent, an increase in segment profitability and increase in net interest expense, partially offset by reductions in special charges related to our global realignment program impairment charges related toduring the trademarks of certain of our businesses, and pension and postretirement expense.respective periods.

The lossIncome before income taxes wasimproved from a loss of $478.4 forin the nine months ended October 1, 2016 and includes a chargeto income of $28.1 in the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The pre-tax loss in the 2016 period included charges of (i) $426.4 related to the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets of our Power and Energy reportable segment (see Note 6 to our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements for further details(ii) $38.9 related to this charge).the early extinguishment of debt, as noted previously. The reductionincrease in pre-tax income for the nine month period, compared to the respective 20152016 period, primarily resulted primarily from this impairment charge and, tothere being no similar charges in the 2017 period as well as a lesser extent, declines in segment profitability, the loss on early extinguishment of debt referred to above, and increases in net interest expense andreduction in special charges related to our global realignment program during the period.respective periods.
Cash Flows from (used in) Operations — For the nine months ended October 1, 2016, decreasedSeptember 30, 2017, cash flows from operations increased to $(50.0)$117.2 from $56.6$(50.0) primarily as a result of (i) a declineimprovements in segment profitability,working capital driven by the timing of project execution and associated milestone payments, (ii) pension benefit payments of $65.9 to certain former officers of the Company (iii) interest payments of $38.8 related to our senior notes, and (iv) an increase in cash spending on restructuring actions.
Redemption of Senior Notes — On August 10, 2016, we completed the redemption of all of our 6.875% senior notes due in August 2017 for a total redemption price of $636.4. As a result of the redemption, we recorded a charge of $38.9 to "Loss on early extinguishment of debt" during the third quarterfirst three quarters of 2016 which related to premiums paid to redeemdid not recur during the senior notescorresponding period of $36.4, the write-off of unamortized deferred financing fees of $1.9,2017 and other costs associated with the extinguishment of the senior notes of $0.6.(iii) reduced payments for incentive compensation.

Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. We establish actual interim closing dates using a fiscal calendar, which requires our businesses to close their books on the Saturday closest to the end of the first calendar quarter, with the second and third quarters being 91 days in length. Our fourth quarter ends on December 31. The interim closing dates for the first, second and third quarters of 20162017 are April 1, July 1, and September 30, compared to the respective April 2, July 2, and October 1, compared to the respective March 28, June 27, and September 26, 20152016 dates. We had six moretwo less days in the first quarter of 20162017 and will have five less daysone more day in the fourth quarter of 20162017 than in the respective 20152016 periods.
Cyclicality of End Markets, Seasonality and Competition -The financial results of many of our businesses closely follow changes in the industries and end markets they serve. In addition, certain businesses have seasonal fluctuations. Also, capital spending on original equipment by our customers in the oil and gas industries is heavily influenced by current and expected oil and gas prices. The significant decline in oil prices from the latter half of 2014 and continuing throughout 2015, as well as the recent volatility insustained lower oil prices throughoutin 2016 through the first nine monthsthird quarter of 20162017, and the uncertainty in future oil prices, continue to impact both operational and capital spending by end customers in our Power and Energy reportable segment. Revenues from food and beverage systems and related services are highly correlated to timing on large construction contracts,projects, which may cause significant fluctuations in our financial performance from period to period. The reductionFluctuations in dairy commodity prices and increased production of dry powder dairy related products, particularly related tothose aimed at serving the China market, has resulted in delayed or deferredcan influence the timing of capital spending by many end customers in our Food and Beverage reportable segment.
Although our businesses operate in highly competitive markets, our competitive position cannot be determined accurately in the aggregate or by segment since our competitors do not offer all the same product lines or serve all the same markets. In addition, specific reliable comparative figures are not available for many of our competitors. In most product groups, competition comes from numerous concerns, both large and small. The principal methods of competition are service, product performance, technical innovation and price. These methods vary with the type of product sold. We believe we compete effectively on the basis of each of these factors. See "Our Business" for a discussion of our competitors.
Non-GAAP Measures - Organic revenue growth (decline) presented herein is defined as revenue growth (decline) excluding the effects of foreign currency fluctuations and acquisitions.fluctuations. We believe this metric is a useful financial measure for investors in evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, as, when read in conjunction with our revenues, it presents a


useful tool to evaluate our ongoing operations and provides investors with a metric they can use to evaluate our management of assets held from period to period. In addition, organic revenue growth (decline) is one of the factors we use in internal evaluations of the overall performance of our business. This metric, however, is not a measure of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), should not be considered a substitute for net revenue growth (decline) as determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Revenues - For the three months ended September 30, 2017, the increase in revenues, compared to the respective 2016 period, was due primarily to an increase in organic revenue and, to a lesser extent, a weakening of the U.S. dollar against various foreign currencies. The increase in organic revenue was due primarily to increased sales of valves and pumps used in midstream oil applications and aftermarket parts and services in our Power and Energy segment and, to a lesser extent, increased sales of heat exchangers and hydraulic tools in our Industrial segment.
For the nine months ended October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, the decrease in revenues, compared to the respective 2015 periods,2016 period, was due primarily to a decrease in organic revenue and, to a lesser extent, a strengthening of the U.S. dollar against various foreign currencies. The decrease in organic revenue was due primarily to the impacts of lowerreduced customer capital investments, particularly in oil and dairy pricesrelated markets, and reflects the lower levels of backlog of each of our segments as of the beginning of 2017 when compared to the beginning of 2016, which were $784.1 and $905.0 on customer order patterns.a consolidated basis, respectively.
See "Results of Reportable Segments" for additional details.


Gross Profit - The decreaseincrease in gross profit and margin for the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, compared to the respective 2015 periods,2016 period, was attributable primarily to the revenue declinesincrease noted above.

The decrease in gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the respective 2016 period, was attributable primarily to the revenue decline noted above. The increase in gross margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared to the respective 2016 period, was due primarily to savings from restructuring actions and other cost reduction initiatives and improved productivity in our Poland facility, partially offset by (i) increased warranty costs in our Power and Energy segment and (ii) an increase in incentive compensation based on the Company’s year-to-date performance relative to certain incentive targets in 2017 as compared to 2016.

Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets - During the nine months ended October 1, 2016, we performed an interim goodwill impairment test and determined that the fair value of our Power and Energy reporting unit was less than the carrying value of its net assets. As a result of this determination, we recorded an impairment charge of $252.8 to reduce the goodwill of the reporting unit to its implied fair value. We also recorded an additional impairment charge of $173.6 related to certain intangible assets of certain businesses within our Power and Energy reportable segment. See Note 6 to our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements for further discussion.

The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2016 was impacted by an income tax benefit of $23.8 resulting from a tax incentive realized in Poland related to the expansion of our manufacturing facility in that country. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2016 also reflects the dilutive effect that the large annual forecasted pre-tax loss hashad on forecasted annual tax expense, since a significant portion of the pre-tax loss relatesrelated to the goodwill and intangible assets impairment charge recorded by our Power and Energy reporting unit in the second quarter of 2016 of which a majority of the goodwill had no basis for income tax purposes. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2015 was impacted by tax charges of (i) $7.4 related to dividends from foreign subsidiaries, (ii) $2.6 related to changes in the jurisdictional composition of expected pre-tax income, and (iii) $1.2 related to pre-tax losses generated during the period for which no tax benefit was recognized.
During the nine months ended October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, we recorded an income tax provision of $12.2 on $28.1 of pre-tax income, resulting in an effective tax rate of 43.4%.

RESULTS OF REPORTABLE SEGMENTS
In January 2016, we changed our internal reporting structure to more precisely present reportable segment revenue and income in certain countries where we conduct business across multiple end markets. As a result of these structural enhancements, certain product line results have been reclassified between reportable segments. Additionally, we changed our measurement of segment income to include stock-based compensation costs associated with segment employees, while stock-based compensation for corporate employees is now reported as a component of corporate expense. These changes in reportable segment revenue and income, as well as in our measurement of segment profitability, are consistent with how our chief operating decision maker, beginning in 2016, assesses operating performance and allocates resources.

Segment results and corporate expense have been recast for all historical periods presented to reflect these changes.
The following information should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements and related notes.

Revenues - For the three months ended October 1,September 30, 2017, the increase in revenues, compared to the respective 2016 period, was primarily due to a weakening of the U.S. dollar against various foreign currencies and, to a lesser extent, a small increase in organic revenue. The small increase in organic revenue was due primarily to increased sales of component parts, which was partially offset by reduced revenue from systems projects.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the decrease in revenues, compared to the respective 20152016 period, was due to a decrease in organic revenue partially offset byand, to a weakeninglesser extent, a strengthening of the U.S. dollar during the period against certainvarious foreign currencies. The decrease in organic revenue was due primarily to the impact on revenues of a lower backlog as of the beginning of the 2016 period,2017, compared to the respective periodbeginning of 2015,2016, due to a decline in dairy pricing which began in 2015, as well asand the resulting impact of such lower prices on the placement of large systems orders particularly for milk powder projects, duringthroughout 2016 and the first half of 2017.
Income - For the three months ended September 30, 2017, income increased, compared to the respective 2016 period, primarily due to the revenue increase noted above, as well as improved productivity in our Poland facility and savings from restructuring actions and other cost reduction initiatives. The increase in income was largely offset by the effects of an increase in incentive compensation based on the Company’s year-to-date performance relative to certain incentive targets in 2017 as compared to 2016.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, income and margin decreased, compared to the respective 2016 period, primarily due to the revenue decline noted above and the effects of an increase in incentive compensation. These declines in income and margin were partially mitigated by improved productivity in our Poland facility and savings from restructuring actions and other cost reduction initiatives.
Backlog - The segment had backlog of $335.2 and $334.2 as of September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016, respectively. Of the decrease$1.0 year-over-year increase in backlog, $6.4 was attributable to the impact of fluctuations in foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, partially offset by $5.4 attributable to an organic decline.

Of the $43.2 year-over-year decline in backlog, $45.4 was attributable to an organic decline, partially offset by an increase of $2.2 due to the impact of changes in various foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar as of October 1, 2016, as compared to September 26, 2015. The organic decline was due primarily to the impact of the decline in dairy pricing mentioned above and its impact on large systems orders.

Corporate Expense - Corporate expense generally relates to the cost of our Charlotte, NCNorth Carolina corporate headquarters and our Asia Pacific center in Shanghai, China. Prior to the Spin-Off, corporate expense also included allocations of the cost of corporate functions and/or resources provided by the former Parent. A detailed description of the methodology used to allocate corporate-related costs can be found in our consolidated and combined financial statements included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Beginning in 2016, corporateCorporate expense also reflects stock-based compensation costs associated with corporate employees (2015 corporate expense has been recast to reflect this change in reporting, as further discussed in Note 3 to our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements).employees.
The decreaseincrease in corporate expense for the three months ended October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, compared to the respective 20152016 period, was due primarily to a reduction inincreased incentive compensation expense.compensation. The decrease in corporate expense for the nine months ended October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, compared to the respective 20152016 period, was due primarily to asavings from restructuring actions undertaken during 2016 and other cost reduction ininitiatives, including the effects of restructuring actions on corporate stock-based compensation and, to a lesser extent,cost, which was partially offset by increased incentive compensation expense.
The reduction in corporate stock-based compensation expense, compared to the respective periods in 2015, reflects primarily (i) changes in the composition of our management team on a year-over-year basis, as well as (ii) the benefit of forfeitures of certain awards during the nine months ended October 1, 2016. In 2015, our corporate stock-based compensation expense included an allocation of expense related to certain former officers whose awards became fully vested during the first quarter of 2015, based on early retirement provisions contained within the applicable award agreements. In 2016, a greater portion of corporate stock-based compensation expense related to our current management team is being recognized ratably over the relevant performance or service period of the applicable awards.
The reduction in incentive compensation expense is due to lower profitability in the three and nine months ended October 1, 2016, compared to the respective periods in 2015.compensation.
See Note 1110 to our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements for further details regarding our stock-based compensation awards.
Pension and Postretirement ExpenseService Costs - SPX FLOW sponsors a number of defined benefit pension plans and a postretirement plan. Prior to the Spin-Off, certain eligible employees associated with SPX FLOW were participants in defined benefit pension and postretirement plans sponsored by the former Parent. For all of these plans, changes in the fair value of plan assets and actuarial gains and losses are recognized to earnings in the fourth quarter of each year as a component of net periodic benefit expense, unless earlier remeasurement is required. The remaining components of pension and postretirement expense, primarily service and interest costs and expected return on plan assets, are recorded on a quarterly basis.
Pension Non-service-related pension and postretirement expense, as presented herein, represents net periodic benefit expense associated with the plans we sponsor and,costs (benefits) are reported in 2015, an allocation of a portion of the net periodic benefit expense associated with the plans sponsored by the former Parent prior to the Spin-Off. See Note 1 to our consolidated and combined financial statements included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details on our methodology for allocating corporate-related costs prior to the Spin-Off.

During the three months ended October 1, 2016, we made pension benefit payments of $53.9 related to our domestic nonqualified pension plan to certain former officers of the Company, which resulted in recognition of a $0.8 actuarial gain due to the partial settlement and remeasurement of the plan’s remaining obligations during the three and nine months then ended. In connection with the Spin-Off, we assumed these domestic nonqualified pension plan obligations from the former Parent and formed a new nonqualified plan, resulting in the remeasurement of such obligations as of September 26, 2015 and recognition of a $7.4 actuarial loss during the during the three and nine months ended September 26, 2015.“Other income (expense), net.”

Amendment of Senior Credit Facilities— On July 11, 2016, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Company’s existing senior credit facilities, dated as of September 1, 2015 (the “Existing Senior Credit Facilities” and, as amended by the First Amendment, the “Senior Credit Facilities”), by and among the Company, the foreign subsidiary borrowers party thereto, the lenders party thereto, Deutsche Bank AG Deutschlandgeschäft Branch, as foreign trade facility agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”). The First Amendment amended the Existing Senior Credit Facilities to, among other things:
increase the maximum consolidated leverage ratio that must be maintained by the Company from 3.25:1.00 (or 3.50:1.00 for the four fiscal quarters after certain permitted acquisitions) to 4.00:1.00;
require that the Company and the domestic subsidiary guarantors grant to the Administrative Agent valid and perfected first priority security interests in substantially all personal property assets of the Company and the domestic subsidiary

guarantors (subject to certain exceptions) and valid first priority mortgages on all domestic real property owned by the Company and the domestic subsidiary guarantors having a fair market value in excess of $10.0; and
include an additional pricing tier of per annum fees charged and amend the interest rate margins applicable to Eurodollar and alternate base rate loans.
The Senior Credit Facilities continue to provide that, if the Company’s corporate credit rating is “Baa3” or better by Moody’s or “BBB-” or better by S&P and no defaults would exist, then all collateral security will be released and the obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities will be unsecured.
New Senior Notes
On August 10, 2016, the Company completed its issuance of $600.0 in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes comprised of one tranche of $300.0 aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior notes due in August 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) and one tranche of $300.0 aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior notes due in August 2026 (the “2026 Notes” and, together with the 2024 Notes, the “Notes”). The interest payment dates for the Notes are February 15 and August 15 of each year, with interest payable in arrears. The proceeds of the Notes, together with borrowings under our domestic revolving loan facility, were used to complete the tender offer and repurchase/redemption of the $600.0 outstanding aggregate principal amount of our 6.875% senior notes due in August 2017, including $36.4 of premiums paid.30, 2017.
Financial Instruments
We measure our financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis, and nonfinancial assets and liabilities on a non-recurring basis, at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We utilize market data or assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2) or significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).
Our derivative financial assets and liabilities include FX forward contracts and FX embedded derivatives measured at fair value using observable market inputs such as forward rates, interest rates, our own credit risk and our counterparties' credit risks. Based on these inputs, the derivative assets and liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Based on our continued ability to enter into forward contracts, we consider the markets for our fair value instruments active.

As of October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, there had been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative liabilities due to our own credit risk as the related instruments were collateralized under our senior credit facilities. Similarly, there had been no significant impact to the fair value of our derivative assets based on our evaluation of our counterparties' credit risks.
We primarily use the income approach, market approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including the sale of a business). Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are further discussed below.
Currency Forward Contracts and Currency Forward Embedded Derivatives
We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our objective is to preserve the economic value of non-functional currency-denominated cash flows and to minimize the impact of changes as a result of currency fluctuations (see Note 109 to our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements). Our principal currency exposures relate to the Euro, Chinese Yuan and Great BritainBritish Pound.

The net gains (losses) recorded in "Other income (expense), net" related to FX gains (losses) totaled $0.1$(0.4) and $(0.1)$0.1 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and October 1, 2016, and September 26, 2015, respectively, and $(2.9)$(3.8) and $0.1$(2.9) for the nine months then ended.

The net fair values of our FX forward contracts and FX embedded derivatives were $2.1 (asset) and $0.5$2.8 (asset) at October 1, 2016September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2015,2016, respectively.
Other Fair Value Financial Assets and Liabilities
The carrying amounts of cash and equivalents and receivables reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of those instruments.
The fair value of our debt instruments (excluding capital leases and deferred financing fees), based on borrowing rates available to us at October 1, 2016September 30, 2017 for similar debt, was $1,118.0,$1,029.1, compared to our carrying amountvalue of $1,111.2.$999.8.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and equivalents, trade accounts receivable, and FX forward contracts. These financial instruments, other than trade accounts receivable, are placed with high-quality financial institutions throughout the world. We periodically evaluate the credit standing of these financial institutions.
We maintain cash levels in bank accounts that, at times, may exceed federally-insured limits. We have not experienced, and believe we are not exposed to significant risk of, loss in these accounts.
We have credit loss exposure in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to the above financial instruments, but have no other off-balance-sheet credit risk of accounting loss. We anticipate that counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts. We do not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk, but we do monitor the credit standing of counterparties.
Concentrations of credit risk arising from trade accounts receivable are due to selling to customers in a particular industry. Credit risks are mitigated by performing ongoing credit evaluations of our customers' financial conditions and obtaining collateral, advance payments, or other security when appropriate. No one customer, or group of customers that, to our knowledge, are under common control, accounted for more than 10% of our revenues for any period presented.

Other Matters
Contractual Obligations - As of October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, there were no material changes in our contractual obligations from those disclosed in our 20152016 Annual Report on Form 10-K, except (i) the amendment of our senior credit facilities on July 11, 2016, (ii) the issuance of the $600.0 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes on August 10, 2016, and (iii) the repurchase/redemption of our former 6.875% senior notes in aggregate principal amount of $600.0, each as discussed further under “Borrowings and Availability” within this MD&A.10-K.
In addition, on July 8, 2016, we made direct benefit payments of $53.9 related to our domestic nonqualified pension plan to certain former officers of the Company. These payments were funded by borrowings under our senior credit facilities.
Our total net liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits including interest were $7.3$2.6 as of October 1, 2016.September 30, 2017. Of that amount, we believe that within the next 12 months it is reasonably possible that our previously unrecognized tax benefits (including interest) could decrease by $3.0$0.0 to $5.0.$1.5.
Contingencies and Other Matters - We are subject to litigation matters that arise in the normal course of business. We believe these matters are either without merit or of a kind that should not have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Refer to Note 12 for discussion regarding amounts reported in "Mezzanine equity" on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of October 1, 2016. Subsequent changes, if any, in amounts reported are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
We are subject to domestic and international environmental protection laws and regulations with respect to our business operations and are operating in compliance with, or taking action aimed at ensuring compliance with, these laws and regulations. None of our compliance obligations with environmental protection laws and regulations, individually or in the aggregate, is expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Refer to Note 11 for discussion regarding amounts reported in "Mezzanine equity" on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Subsequent changes, if any, in amounts reported are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Global Realignment Program - As previously disclosed in our 20152016 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we are currently executing a multi-year plan to transition our enterprise to an operating company. As part of this plan, we announced our intent to further optimize our global footprint, streamline business processes and reduce selling, general and administrative expense through a global realignment program. The realignment program is intended to reduce costs across operating sites and corporate and global functions, in part by making structural changes and process enhancements which allow us to operate more efficiently. We plan to have approximately $80$35 in cash outflows in support of our realignment program in 2016.2017. Additionally, we expect to recognize pre-tax charges to earnings of approximately $120$22 in the aggregate over the course of 2016 and 2017 (we recognized approximately $64$78 related to the realignment program during 2016 and $18 during the nine months ended October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, as discussed in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements). These realignment actions are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2017.
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
General - The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The accounting policies that we believe are most critical to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments in estimating the effect of inherent uncertainties are discussed in our consolidated and combined financial statements included in our 20152016 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We have effected no material change in either our critical accounting policies or use of estimates since the filing of our consolidated and combined financial statements in our 20152016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.


ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity raw material prices, and we selectively use financial instruments to manage certain of these risks. We do not enter into financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes; however, these instruments may be deemed speculative if the future cash flows originally hedged are no longer probable of occurring as anticipated. Our currency exposures vary, but are primarily concentrated in the Euro, Chinese Yuan and Great BritainBritish Pound. We generally do not hedge currency translation exposures. Our exposures for commodity raw materials vary, with the highest concentration relating to steel, copper and oil.steel. See Note 109 to our condensed consolidated and combined financial statements for further details.
The following table provides information, as of October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, about our primary outstanding debt obligations and presents principal cash flows by expected maturity dates, weighted-average interest rates and fair values.

(1)On October 31, 2017, we made a voluntary principal prepayment in the amount of $80.0 under the term loan facility. As a result of the prepayment, the outstanding principal amount on the term loan decreased to $295.0, and the debt obligation due after 2 years but within 3 years was reduced from $335.0 to $255.0. The payment was funded by cash on hand and, to a lesser extent, short-term debt of $20.0.
We believe that cash and equivalents, cash flows from operations, and availability under revolving credit facilities and our trade receivables financing arrangement will be sufficient to fund working capital needs, planned capital expenditures, dividend payments (if declared), other operational cash requirements and required debt service obligations for at least the next 12 months.
We had FX forward contracts with an aggregate notional amount of $41.8$36.1 outstanding as of October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, with all such contracts scheduled to mature within one year. We also had FX embedded derivatives with an aggregate notional amount of $26.9$19.2 at October 1, 2016,September 30, 2017, with scheduled maturities of $22.6, $3.3$19.1 and $1.0$0.1 within one two and threetwo years, respectively. The gross fair values of our FX forward contracts and FX embedded derivatives, in aggregate, were $3.3$2.2 (gross assets) and $1.2$0.1 (gross liabilities) as of October 1, 2016.September 30, 2017.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
The information required by this Item is incorporated by reference from the footnotes to the condensed consolidated and combined financial statements, specifically Note 12,11, “Litigation, and Contingent Liabilities and Other Matters,” included under Part I of this Form 10-Q.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, and as stated below, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our 20152016 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, or future results.
Our global operations could be negatively impacted by the economic and political instability caused by the United Kingdom ("UK") vote to leave the European Union ("EU").
The UK held a referendum on June 23, 2016 on its membership in the EU. A majority of UK voters voted to exit the EU (“Brexit”), and negotiations will commence to determine the future terms of the UK’s relationship with the EU, subject to a negotiation period that could last up to two years after the UK government formally initiates the withdraw process, including the terms of trade between the UK and the EU. Brexit has created instability and volatility in the global markets and could adversely affect Europeanresults or worldwide economic or market conditions. Although it is unknown what those terms will be, they may impair the ability of our operations in the EU to transact business in the future in the UK, and similarly the ability of our UK operations to transact business in the future in the EU. Specifically, it is possible that there will be greater restrictions on imports and exports between the UK and EU countries and increased regulatory complexities. These changes may adversely affect our operations and financial results. In addition, Brexit could lead to legal uncertainty and potentially divergent national laws and regulations as the UK determines which EU laws to replace or replicate. Further, among other things, Brexit could reduce capital spending in the UK and the EU, which could result in decreased demand for our products. Any of these effects of Brexit, and others we cannot anticipate, could adversely affect our business, business opportunities, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
