1. Organization and Nature of Operations
Description of Business
Headquartered in Braintree, Massachusetts, Altra Industrial Motion Corp. (the “Company”) is a leading multi-national designer, producer and marketer of a wide range of electro-mechanical power transmission products. The Company brings together strong brands covering over 42 product lines with production facilities in twelve countries. Altra’s leading brands include Ameridrives Couplings, Bauer Gear Motor, Bibby Turboflex, Boston Gear, Delroyd Worm Gear, Formsprag Clutch, Guardian Couplings, Huco, Industrial Clutch, Inertia Dynamics, Kilian Manufacturing, Lamiflex Couplings, Marland Clutch, Matrix, Nuttall Gear, Stieber Clutch, Svendborg Brakes, TB Wood’s, Twiflex, Warner Electric, Warner Linear, and Wichita Clutch.
2. Basis of Presentation
The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position for the interim periods presented, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results are not necessarily indicative of future results. The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure.
3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In 2016, the FASB issued new guidance to revise aspects of stock-based compensation guidance which include income tax consequences, classification of awards as equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is determined based upon the exit price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants, as determined by either the principal market or the most advantageous market. Inputs used in the valuation techniques to derive fair values are classified based on a three-level hierarchy, as follows:
• | Level 1- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
• | Level 2- Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived |
• | Level 3- Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities. |
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
The carrying values of financial instruments, including accounts receivable, cash equivalents, accounts payable, and other accrued liabilities approximate fair value. Debt under the Company’s 2015 Credit Agreement approximates the fair value due to the variable rate nature at current market rates.

ALTRA INDUSTRIAL MOTION CORP.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
Amounts in thousands, unless otherwise noted
The carrying amount of the 2.75% Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) was $85 million at both March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $98.3 million and $91.7 million, respectively, based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the Convertible Notes (Level 2).
Included in cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are money market fund investments of $0.3 million, which are reported at fair value based on quoted market prices for such investments (Level 1).

6. Net Income per Share
Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, and diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. Common stock equivalents are included in the per share calculations when the effect of their inclusion is dilutive.

(“Altra Netherlands”), one of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the “Borrowers”), the lenders party to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement from time to time (collectively, the “Lenders”), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), to be guaranteed through a Guarantee Agreement by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”; the Guarantors collectively with the Borrowers, the “Loan Parties”), and which may be amended from time to time (the “2015 Credit Agreement”). The 2015 Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s former Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2013, as amended (the “2013 Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, including former subsidiary Altra Power Transmission, Inc., the lenders party to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement from time to time (the “Former Lenders”), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and the Administrative Agent, guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company. The 2013 Credit Agreement itself was an amendment and restatement of a prior credit agreement. Pursuant to the 2013 Credit Agreement, the Former Lenders had made available to the Borrowers a revolving credit facility (the “Prior Revolving Credit Facility”) of $200 million, which continued in effect an existing term loan then having a balance of approximately $94 million, and made an additional term loan of €50 million to Altra Netherlands. The two term loans described in the prior sentence are collectively referred to as the “Term Loans.”
Under the 2015 Credit Agreement, the amount of the Prior Revolving Credit Facility was increased to $350 million (the “2015 Revolving Credit Facility”). The amounts available under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility can be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and to repay existing indebtedness. A portion of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility was used to repay the Term Loans. The Company wrote off approximately $0.5 million of previously recognized deferred financing costs in connection with the repayment.
The stated maturity of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility was extended to October 22, 2020. The maturity of the Prior Revolving Credit Facility had been December 6, 2018. The 2015 Credit Agreement continues to provide for a possible expansion of the credit facilities by an additional $150 million, which can be allocated as additional term loans and/or additional revolving credit loans.
The amounts available under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility may be drawn upon in accordance with the terms of the 2015 Credit Agreement. All amounts outstanding under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility are due on the stated maturity or such earlier time, if any, required under the 2015 Credit Agreement. The amounts owed under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time, subject to usual notification and breakage payment provisions. Interest on the amounts outstanding under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is calculated using either an ABR Rate or Eurodollar Rate, plus the applicable margin. The applicable margins for Eurodollar Loans are between 1.25% to 2.00%, and for ABR Loans are between 0.25% and 1.00%. The amounts of the margins are calculated based on either a consolidated total net leverage ratio (as defined in the 2015 Credit Agreement), or the then applicable rating(s) of the Company’s debt if and then to the extent as provided in the 2015 Credit Agreement. The rate at December 31, 2015 was 1.5%. A portion of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility may also be used for the issuance of letters of credit, and a portion of the amount of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is available for borrowings in certain agreed upon foreign currencies.The 2015 Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants and restrictions, which among other things, will require the Borrowers to provide certain financial reports to the Lenders, require the Company to maintain certain financial covenants relating to consolidated leverage and interest coverage, limit maximum annual capital expenditures, and limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other equity distributions, purchase or redeem capital stock or debt, make certain investments, sell assets, engage in certain transactions, and effect a consolidation or merger. The 2015 Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default.
Ratification Agreement
Pursuant to an Omnibus Reaffirmation and Ratification and Amendment of Collateral Documents entered into on October 22, 2015 in connection with the 2015 Credit Agreement by and among the Company, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent (the “Ratification Agreement”), the Loan Parties (exclusive of the foreign subsidiary Borrower) have reaffirmed their obligations to the Lenders under the Pledge and Security Agreement dated November 20, 2012 (the “Pledge and Security Agreement”), pursuant to which each Loan Party pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on

behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all personal property, whether now owned by or owing to, or after acquired by or arising in favor of such Loan Party (including under any trade name or derivations), and whether owned or consigned by or to, or leased from or to, such Loan Party, and regardless of where located, except for specific excluded personal property identified in the Pledge and Security Agreement (collectively, the “Collateral”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral does not include, among other items, more than 65% of the capital stock of the first tier foreign subsidiaries of the Company. The Pledge and Security Agreement contains other customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties. The 2015 Credit Agreement provides that the obligation to grant the security interest can cease upon the obtaining of certain corporate family credit ratings for the Company, but the obligation to grant a security interest is subject to subsequent reinstatement if the ratings are not maintained as provided in the 2015 Credit Agreement.
Pursuant to the Ratification Agreement, the Loan Parties (other than the foregoing subsidiary Borrower) have also reaffirmed their obligations under each of the Patent Security Agreement and a Trademark Security Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent dated November 20, 2012 (the “2012 Security Agreements”) pursuant to which each of the Loan Parties signatory thereto pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all registered patents, patent applications, registered trademarks and trademark applications owned by such Loan Parties.
Additional Trademark Security Agreement and Patent Security Agreement
In connection with the reaffirmation of the Pledge and Security Agreement, certain of the Loan Parties delivered a new Patent Security Agreement and a new Trademark Security Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to which each of the Loan Parties signatory thereto pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all registered patents, patent applications, registered trademarks and trademark applications owned by such Loan Parties and not covered by the 2012 Security Agreements.
As of March 31, 2016 we had $141.7 million outstanding on our 2015 Revolving Credit Facility, including $118.2 million outstanding on our USD tranche at an interest rate of 1.94% and $23.5 million outstanding on our Euro tranche at an interest rate of 1.5%. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had $7.8 million and $7.0 million in letters of credit outstanding, respectively. We had $199.1 million available to borrow under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility at March 31, 2016.
Convertible Senior Notes
In March 2011, the Company issued the Convertible Notes due March 1, 2031. The Convertible Notes are guaranteed by the Company’s U.S. domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the Convertible Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears, on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1, 2011 at an annual rate of 2.75%. Proceeds from the offering were $81.3 million, net of fees and expenses that were capitalized. The proceeds from the offering were used to fund the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Danfoss Bauer GmbH relating to its gear motor business, as well as bolster the Company’s cash position.
The Convertible Notes will mature on March 1, 2031, unless earlier redeemed, repurchased by the Company or converted, and are convertible into cash or shares, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock based on an initial conversion rate, subject to adjustment, of 36.0985 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $27.70 per share of our common stock), in certain circumstances. The conversion price at March 31, 2016 is $25.98 per share. Prior to March 1, 2030, the Convertible Notes are convertible only in the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after June 30, 2011 if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter; (2) during the 5 business day period after any 10 consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day in the measurement period was less than 97% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate on such trading day; (3) if the Convertible Notes have been called for redemption; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. On or after March 1, 2030, and ending at the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their Convertible Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing

circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The Company intends to settle the principal amount in cash and any additional amounts in shares of stock.
If a fundamental change occurs, the Convertible Notes are redeemable at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including contingent interest and additional interest, if any) to, but excluding, the repurchase date. The Convertible Notes are also redeemable on each of March 1, 2018, March 1, 2021, and March 1, 2026 for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including contingent interest and additional interest, if any) to, but excluding, the option repurchase date.
As of March 1, 2015, the Company may call all or part of the Convertible Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, plus a “make-whole premium” payment in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or combination thereof, at the Company’s option, equal to the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of interest on the Convertible Notes to be redeemed through March 1, 2018 to, but excluding, the redemption date, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date the Company provides notice of redemption exceeds 130% of the conversion price in effect on each such trading day. On or after March 1, 2018, the Company may redeem for cash all or a portion of the notes at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including contingent and additional interest, if any) to, but not including, the redemption date.
The Company separately accounted for the debt and equity components of the Convertible Notes to reflect the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate, which interest costs are to be recognized in subsequent periods. The note payable principal balance at the date of issuance of $85.0 million was bifurcated into a debt component of $60.5 million and an equity component of $24.5 million. The difference between the note payable principal balance and the value of the debt component is being accreted to interest expense over the term of the notes. The debt component was recognized at the present value of associated cash flows discounted using a 8.25% discount rate, the borrowing rate at the date of issuance for a similar debt instrument without a conversion feature. The Company paid approximately $3.7 million of issuance costs associated with the Convertible Notes. The Company recorded $1.0 million of debt issuance costs as an offset to additional paid-in capital. The balance of $2.7 million of debt issuance costs is classified as other non-current assets and will be amortized over the term of the notes using the effective interest method.
Because the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock did not exceed 130% of the current conversion price, which was $25.98, for at least 20 of the last 30 consecutive trading days in the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Convertible Notes are not convertible at the election of the holders of the Convertible Notes at any time during the fiscal quarter ending June 30, 2016. The future convertibility will be monitored at each quarterly reporting date and will be analyzed dependent upon market prices of the Company’s common stock during the prescribed measurement periods.
The carrying amount of the principal amount of the liability component, the unamortized discount, and the net carrying amount are as follows as of March 31, 2016:
Principal amount of debt | $ | 85,000 | |
Unamortized discount | 8,094 | ||
Carrying value of debt | $ | 76,906 |
Interest expense associated with the Convertible Notes consists of the following:

11. Stockholders’ Equity
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”) permitted the grant of various forms of stock based compensation to our officers and senior level employees. The 2004 Plan expired in 2014 and, upon expiration, there were 750,576 shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2004 Plan. The 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) was approved by the Company’s shareholders at its 2014 annual meeting.

The restricted shares issued pursuant to the 2014 Plan generally vest ratably over a period ranging from immediately to five years from the date of grant, provided, that the vesting of the restricted shares may accelerate upon the occurrence of certain events. Common stock awarded under the 2014 Plan is generally subject to restrictions on transfer, repurchase rights, and other limitations and rights as set forth in the applicable award agreements. The shares are valued based on the share price on the date of grant.
The 2014 Plan permits the Company to grant, among other things, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance share awards to key employees and other persons who make significant contributions to the success of the Company. The restrictions and vesting schedule for restricted stock granted under the 2014 Plan are determined by the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
Stock-based compensation expense recorded during the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, was $1.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis for the shares vesting ratably under the plan and uses the graded-vesting method of recognizing stock-based compensation expense for the performance share awards based on the probability of the specific performance metrics being achieved over the requisite service period.
The following table sets forth the activity of the Company’s restricted stock and performance share grants in the year to date period ended March 31, 2016:
Shares | Weighted-average grant date fair value | |||||
Shares unvested January 1, 2016 | 161,010 | $ | 28.62 | |||
Shares granted | 163,053 | 22.58 | ||||
Shares for which restrictions lapsed | (18,196 | ) | 23.90 | |||
Shares unvested March 31, 2016 | 305,867 | $ | 25.15 |
Total remaining unrecognized compensation cost was $6.5 million as of March 31, 2016, which will be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 3 years. The fair market value of the shares for which the restrictions have lapsed during the year to date period ended March 31, 2016 was $0.4 million. Restricted shares granted are valued based on the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant.
Share Repurchase Program
In May 2014, our board of directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the buyback of up to $50.0 million of the Company’s common stock. Under the program, the Company may purchase shares on the open market, through block trades, in privately negotiated transactions, in compliance with SEC Rule 10b-18 (including through Rule 10b5-1 plans), or in any other appropriate manner. The timing of the shares repurchased will be at the discretion of management and will depend on a number of factors, including price, market conditions and regulatory requirements. Shares acquired through the repurchase program will be retired. The Company retains the right to limit, terminate or extend the share repurchase program at any time without prior notice.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2016, the Company repurchased 91,403 shares of common stock at an average purchase price of $23.62 per share.

13. Segments, Concentrations and Geographic Information
Segments
During the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Company realigned its reporting and management structure and corresponding reportable business segments as part of its business simplification efforts. This new structure is better aligned across the Company’s end markets and will better facilitate the Company’s strategic initiatives for growth, procurement and facility consolidation.
The Company currently operates through three business segments that are aligned with key product types and end markets served:
• | Couplings, Clutches & Brakes. |
Couplings are the interface between two shafts, which enable power to be transmitted from one shaft to the other. Clutches in this segment are devices which use mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, or friction type connections to facilitate engaging or disengaging two rotating members. Brakes are combinations of interacting parts that work to slow or stop machinery. Products in this segment are generally used in heavy industrial applications and energy markets.
• | Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes. |
Products in this segment include brakes and clutches that are used to electronically slow, stop, engage or disengage equipment utilizing electromagnetic friction type connections. Products in this segment are used in industrial and commercial markets including agricultural machinery, material handling, motion control, and turf & garden.
• | Gearing. |
Gears are utilized to reduce the speed and increase the torque of an electric motor or engine to the level required to drive a particular piece of equipment. Gears produced by the Company are primarily utilized in industrial applications.
The segment information presented below for the prior periods has been reclassified to conform to the new presentation.

Concentrations
Financial instruments, which are potentially subject to counter party performance and concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. The Company manages these risks by conducting credit evaluations of customers prior to delivery or commencement of services. When the Company enters into a sales contract, collateral is normally not required from the customer. Payments are typically due within 30 days of billing. An allowance for potential credit losses is

maintained, and losses have historically been within management’s expectations. While the Company did not have any customers that represented total sales greater than 10%, the Gearing business had one customer that approximated 10.5% of total sales for that segment during the year ended December 31, 2015.
The Company is also subject to counter party performance risk of loss in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments, such as cash and investments. Cash and cash equivalents are held by well-established financial institutions and invested in AAA rated mutual funds. The Company is exposed to swap counterparty credit risk with well-established financial institutions.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
General Litigation
The Company is involved in various pending legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of business. These proceedings primarily involve commercial claims, product liability claims, personal injury claims, and workers’ compensation claims. None of these legal proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. With respect to these proceedings, management believes that the Company will prevail, has adequate insurance coverage or has established appropriate reserves to cover potential liabilities. Any costs that management estimates may be paid related to these proceedings or claims are accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. There can be no assurance, however, as to the ultimate outcome of any of these matters, and if all or substantially all of these legal proceedings were to be determined adversely to the Company, there could be a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. We have established loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. There were no material amounts accrued in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet for potential litigation as of March 31, 2016 or December 31, 2015. For matters where a reserve has not been established and for which we believe a loss is reasonably possible, as well as for matters where a reserve has been recorded but for which an exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued is reasonably possible, we believe that such losses, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
The Company also risks exposure to product liability claims in connection with products it has sold and those sold by businesses that the Company acquired. Although in some cases third parties have retained responsibility for product liability claims relating to products manufactured or sold prior to the acquisition of the relevant business and in other cases the persons from whom the Company has acquired a business may be required to indemnify the Company for certain product liability claims subject to certain caps or limitations on indemnification, the Company cannot assure that those third parties will in fact satisfy their obligations with respect to liabilities retained by them or their indemnification obligations. If those third parties become unable to or otherwise do not comply with their respective obligations including indemnity obligations, or if certain product liability claims for which the Company is obligated were not retained by third parties or are not subject to these indemnities, the Company could become subject to significant liabilities or other adverse consequences. Moreover, even in cases where third parties retain responsibility for product liability claims or are required to indemnify the Company, significant claims arising from products that have been acquired could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to realize the benefits from an acquisition, could result in the reduction of the value of goodwill that the Company recorded in connection with an acquisition, or could otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or operations.

Business Segments
Segments
During the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Company realigned its reporting and management structure and corresponding reportable business segments as part of its business simplification efforts. This new structure is better aligned across the Company’s end markets and will better facilitate the Company’s strategic initiatives for growth, procurement and facility consolidation.
The Company currently operates through three business segments that are aligned with key product types and end markets served:
• | Couplings, Clutches & Brakes. |
Couplings are the interface between two shafts, which enable power to be transmitted from one shaft to the other. Clutches in this segment are devices which use mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, or friction type connections to facilitate engaging or disengaging two rotating members. Brakes are combinations of interacting parts that work to slow or stop machinery. Products in this segment are generally used in heavy industrial applications and energy markets.
• | Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes. |
Products in this segment include brakes and clutches that are used to electronically slow, stop, engage or disengage equipment utilizing electromagnetic friction type connections. Products in this segment are used in industrial and commercial markets including agricultural machinery, material handling, motion control, and turf & garden.
• | Gearing. |
Gears are utilized to reduce the speed and increase the torque of an electric motor or engine to the level required to drive a particular piece of equipment. Gears produced by the Company are primarily utilized in industrial applications.

By following the link “Investor Relations” and then “SEC filings” on our Internet website, we make available, free of charge, our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, our Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as soon as reasonably practicable after such forms are filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission. We are not including the information contained on or available through our website as a part of, or incorporating such information by reference into, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Business Outlook
Our future financial performance depends, in large part, on conditions in the markets that we serve and on the U.S., European, and global economies in general.
Foreign currency translation continues to have a negative impact on our performance, and several of our end markets continue to weaken. Performance in the oil & gas, agriculture, mining and metals end markets, which are some of our largest markets, remain challenging and continues to weigh on our performance. Furthermore, we expect the challenges in our agriculture, oil and gas, mining and metals end markets to continue for some time.
We expect operating results for the remainder of the year to be lower when compared to the comparable prior year period due to these conditions. As these conditions persist, we are managing the business to the level of demand we are seeing. We expect ongoing benefits from the restructuring and cost reduction initiatives which include actions taken under the 2015 Altra Plan which we commenced in the quarter ended March 31, 2015 and which has also helped improve profitability of our Gearing segment. We are on track to complete six facilities consolidations by the end of the current second quarter, and we anticipate announcing a seventh planned consolidation during the third quarter.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect our reported amounts of assets, revenues and expenses, as well as related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on past experiences and other assumptions we believe to be appropriate, and we evaluate these estimates on an on-going basis. See the discussion of critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. There have been no changes in the identification or application of the Company’s critical accounting policies during the quarter ended March 31, 2016.
29
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In 2016, the FASB issued new guidance to revise aspects of stock-based compensation guidance which include income tax consequences, classification of awards as equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this new accounting guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Net sales | $ | 180,453 | $ | 193,361 | (12,908 | ) | (6.7 | )% |
The decrease in sales during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was due to the effect of foreign exchange rates, and lower sales levels in several end markets. Of the decrease in sales, approximately $3.4 million relates to the impact of changes to foreign exchange rates primarily for the Euro and British Pound compared to the prior year. In addition, $9.5 million relates to decreased sales in various end markets, primarily oil and gas, and mining in our Couplings, Clutches and Brakes and Electromagnetic Clutches and Brakes business segments.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales increased slightly during the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The increase is due to improvements realized from our consolidation and cost saving efforts, partially offset by unfavorable product mix. We expect

Restructuring Costs | 1,553 | 1,756 | $ | (203 | ) | (11.6 | )% |
During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company adopted a restructuring plan (“2015 Altra Plan”) in response to weak demand and to make certain adjustments to improve business effectiveness, reduce the number of facilities and streamline the company’s cost structure. The actions taken pursuant to the 2015 Altra Plan included reducing headcount and limiting discretionary spending to improve profitability. Approximately $0.4 million, $0.7 million, and $0.5 million were related to the Couplings, Clutches and Brakes segment, Electromagnetic Clutches and Brakes segment, and Corporate business segments, respectively. The company expects to incur approximately $8.0 - $10.0 million in additional expenses associated with the 2015 Altra Plan between 2016 and 2018. We expect to realize cost savings of approximately $0.5 million related to these actions during the remainder of 2016.

The provision for income tax, as a percentage of income before taxes, during the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was lower than that of the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The closure of our subsidiary in Changzhou, China reduced our ongoing losses, subject to valuation allowance, and lowered our overall rate.
Segment Performance
Couplings, Clutches & Brakes
Net sales in the Couplings, Clutches & Brakes segment were $75.6 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, a decrease of approximately $13.5 million or 15.1%, from the quarter ended March 31, 2015. Approximately $2.1 million of the decrease was due to the impact of changes to foreign exchange rates primarily related to the Euro and British Pound compared to the prior year. The remainder of the decrease was due primarily to weakness in the oil and gas, metals and mining markets. Segment operating income decreased approximately $3.7 million compared to the prior period primarily as a result of the impact of the decrease in sales described above.
Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes
Net sales in the Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes segment were $57.3 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, a decrease of approximately $0.3 million, or 0.5%, from the quarter ended March 31, 2015. The decrease relates to the impact of changes to foreign exchange rates, primarily attributed to the Euro and British Pound compared to prior year. Segment operating income increased $0.7 million compared to the prior period primarily as a result of the impact of the restructuring activities initiated during 2015.
Gearing
Net sales in the Gearing segment were $48.9 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared with $49.2 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2015, a decrease of $0.3 million. Approximately $0.7 million of the decrease was due to the impact of changes to foreign exchange rates primarily attributed to the Euro and British Pound compared to the prior year, offset by net sales in the transportation end market of $0.4 million. Segment operating income increased $1.0 million compared to the prior period primarily as a result of improvement in the profitability of the Company’s Bauer business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We finance our capital and working capital requirements through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility (defined below). We expect that our primary ongoing requirements for cash will be for working capital, debt service, capital expenditures, acquisitions, pensions, dividends and share repurchases. In the event additional funds are needed for operations, we could borrow additional funds available under our existing Revolving Credit Facility, request an expansion by up to $150 million of the amount available to be borrowed under the 2015 Credit Agreement, attempt to secure new debt, attempt to refinance our loans under the 2015 Credit Agreement, or attempt to raise capital in the equity markets. As of March 31, 2016, we have the ability under our Revolving Credit Facility to borrow an additional $199.3 million, based on current availability calculations. There can be no assurance however that additional debt financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Similarly, there can be no assurance that equity financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.
Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
On October 22, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among the Company, Altra Industrial Motion Netherlands, B.V. (“Altra Netherlands”), one of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the “Borrowers”), the lenders party to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement from time to time (collectively, the “Lenders”), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), to be guaranteed through a Guarantee Agreement by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”; the Guarantors collectively with the Borrowers, the “Loan Parties”), and which may be amended from time to time (the “2015 Credit Agreement”). The 2015 Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s former Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2013, as amended (the “2013 Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, including former subsidiary Altra Power Transmission, Inc., the lenders party to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement from time to time (the “Former Lenders”), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and the Administrative Agent, guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company. The 2013 Credit Agreement itself was an amendment and restatement of a prior credit agreement. Pursuant to the 2013 Credit Agreement, the Former Lenders had made available to the Borrowers a revolving credit facility (the “Prior Revolving Credit Facility”) of $200 million, continued in effect an existing term loan then having a balance of approximately $94 million, and made an additional term loan of €50.0 million to Altra Netherlands. The two term loans described in the prior sentence are collectively referred to as the “Term Loans”.
Under the 2015 Credit Agreement, the amount of the Prior Revolving Credit Facility has been increased to $350 million (the “2015 Revolving Credit Facility”). The amounts available under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility can be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and to repay existing indebtedness. A portion of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility was used to repay the Term Loans. The Company wrote off approximately $0.5 million of financing costs in connection with the repayment.
The stated maturity of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility was extended to October 22, 2020. The maturity of the Prior Revolving Credit Facility was December 6, 2018. The 2015 Credit Agreement continues to provide for a possible expansion of the credit facilities by an additional $150.0 million, which can be allocated as additional term loans and/or additional revolving credit loans.
The amounts available under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility may be drawn upon in accordance with the terms of the 2015 Credit Agreement. All amounts outstanding under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility are due on the stated maturity or such earlier time, if any, required under the 2015 Credit Agreement. The amounts owed under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time, subject to usual notification and breakage payment provisions. Interest on the amounts outstanding under the credit facilities is calculated using either an ABR Rate or Eurodollar Rate, plus the applicable margin. The applicable margins for Eurodollar Loans are between 1.25% to 2.00%, and for ABR Loans are between 0.25% and 1.00%. The amounts of the margins are calculated based on either a consolidated total net leverage ratio (as defined in the 2015 Credit Agreement), or the then applicable rating(s) of the Company’s debt if and then to the extent as provided in the 2015 Credit Agreement. A portion of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility may also be used for the issuance of letters of credit, and a portion of the amount of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is available for borrowings in certain agreed upon foreign currencies. The 2015 Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants and restrictions, which among other things, will require the Borrowers to provide certain financial reports to the Lenders, require the Company to maintain certain financial
34
covenants relating to consolidated leverage and interest coverage, limit maximum annual capital expenditures, and limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other equity distributions, purchase or redeem capital stock or debt, make certain investments, sell assets, engage in certain transactions, and effect a consolidation or merger. The 2015 Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default.
Ratification Agreement
Pursuant to an Omnibus Reaffirmation and Ratification and Amendment of Collateral Documents entered into on October 22, 2015 in connection with the 2015 Credit Agreement by and among the Company, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent (the “Ratification Agreement”), the Loan Parties (exclusive of the foreign subsidiary Borrower) have reaffirmed their obligations to the Lenders under the Pledge and Security Agreement dated November 20, 2012 (the “Pledge and Security Agreement”), pursuant to which each Loan Party pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all personal property, whether now owned by or owing to, or after acquired by or arising in favor of such Loan Party (including under any trade name or derivations), and whether owned or consigned by or to, or leased from or to, such Loan Party, and regardless of where located, except for specific excluded personal property identified in the Pledge and Security Agreement (collectively, the “Collateral”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral does not include, among other items, more than 65% of the capital stock of the first tier foreign subsidiaries of the Company. The Pledge and Security Agreement contains other customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties. The 2015 Credit Agreement provides that the obligation to grant the security interest can cease upon the obtaining of certain corporate family credit ratings for the Company, but the obligation to grant a security interest is subject to subsequent reinstatement if the ratings are not maintained as provided in the 2015 Credit Agreement.
Pursuant to the Ratification Agreement, the Loan Parties (other than the foregoing subsidiary Borrower) have also reaffirmed their obligations under each of the Patent Security Agreement and a Trademark Security Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent dated November 20, 2012 (the “2012 Security Agreements”) pursuant to which each of the Loan Parties signatory thereto pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all registered patents, patent applications, registered trademarks and trademark applications owned by such Loan Parties.
Additional Trademark Security Agreement and Patent Security Agreement
In connection with the reaffirmation of the Pledge and Security Agreement, certain of the Loan Parties delivered a new Patent Security Agreement and a new Trademark Security Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to which each of the Loan Parties signatory thereto pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all registered patents, patent applications, registered trademarks and trademark applications owned by such Loan Parties and not covered by the 2012 Security Agreements.
As of March 31, 2016 we had $141.7 million outstanding on our 2015 Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2015 we had $145.2 million outstanding on our Prior Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had $7.8 million, and $7.0 million in letters of credit outstanding, respectively. We had $199.1 million available to borrow under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility at March 31, 2016.
We were in compliance in all material respects with all covenants of the indenture governing the 2015 Credit Agreement at March 31, 2016.
Convertible Senior Notes
In March 2011, the Company issued Convertible Senior Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) due March 1, 2031. The Convertible Notes are guaranteed by the Company’s U.S. domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the Convertible Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears, on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1, 2011 at an annual rate of 2.75%. Proceeds from the offering were $81.3 million, net of fees and expenses that were capitalized.
We were in compliance in all material respects with all covenants of the indenture governing the Convertible Notes at March 31, 2016

Cash Flows for 2016
The primary sources of funds provided from operating activities of approximately $6.1 million for the year to date period ended March 31, 2016 resulted from cash provided from net income of $8.8 million. The net impact of the add-back of certain items including non-cash depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, accretion of debt discount, deferred financing costs, loss on impairment, and non-cash loss on foreign currency was approximately $10.2 million. Additionally, there was a net decrease in current assets and liabilities of approximately $13.0 million.
The change in cash flows from operating activities in 2016 as compared to 2015 primarily related to decreased cash of $6.7 million related to changes in assets and accounts payable. While a variety of factors can influence our ability to project future cash flow, we expect to see positive cash flows from operating activities during the remainder of fiscal 2016 due to income from operations, a decrease in working capital and profitability initiatives.
Net cash used in investing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 decreased approximately $2.1 million compared to the year to date period ended March 31, 2015. The increase is attributed to lower capital expenditure spend for the prior year.
Net cash used in financing activities in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2015 decreased by $3.5 million. This decrease relates primarily to payment of debt under the Revolving Credit Facility and our outstanding working capital notes of $2.3 million, partially offset by proceeds from certain new working capital and equipment borrowing. In addition, there was a decrease of $2.4 million in stock repurchases related to the Company’s share repurchase program compared with the prior year period. This decrease was offset by the dividend payment of $3.2 million made in the period ended March 31, 2015.
We intend to use our remaining existing cash and cash equivalents and cash flow from operations to provide for our working capital needs, to fund potential future acquisitions, debt service, including principal payments, capital expenditures,
36
pension funding, and to pay returns to our stockholders. As of March 31, 2016 we have approximately $39.1 million of cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries that are generally subject to U.S. income taxation on repatriation to the U.S. We believe our future operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our future operating and investing cash needs. Furthermore, the existing cash balances and the availability of additional borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility provide additional potential sources of liquidity should they be required.
Contractual Obligations
There were no significant changes in our contractual obligations subsequent to March 31, 2016.
