Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE A – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
Bucyrus International, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation and a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of high productivity mining equipment. The Company operates in two business segments: surface mining and underground mining. Major markets for the surface mining industry are copper, coal, oil sands and iron ore. The major market for the underground mining industry is coal. Most of the Company’s surface mining customers are large multinational corporations with operations in the various major surface mining markets throughout the world. Most of the Company’s underground mining customers are multinational coal mining corporations that tend to be smaller in size than its surface mining customers. In addition to the manufacture of original equipment, an important part of the Company’s business consists of aftermarket sales, such as supplying parts, maintenance and repair services and technical advice, as well as refurbishing and relocating older, installed original equipment. The Company has manufacturing facilities in Australia, China, the Czech Republic, Germany, Mexico, the United Kingdom and the United States and service and sales centers in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, India, Indonesia, Peru, Russia, South Africa and the United States.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of all subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions, profits and accounts have been eliminated.
Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. The cost of finished goods and work in progress includes the cost of raw materials, other direct costs and production overheads. Net realizable value is the estimate of the selling price in the ordinary course of business less the cost of completion and selling. Provision is made to reduce the cost to net realizable value for obsolete and slow-moving inventories. Advances
10
from customers are netted against inventories to the extent of related accumulated costs. Advances in excess of related costs and earnings on uncompleted contracts are classified as a liability to customers. Advances netted against inventory costs were $5.1 million and $2.8 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized and are reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Intangible assets consist primarily of technology, customer relationships, engineering drawings, trademarks, trade names and backlog (see Note E).
Property, Plant and Equipment
Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of respective assets using the straight-line method for financial reporting and accelerated methods for income tax purposes. Estimated useful lives used for financial reporting purposes range from 10 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and three to 17 years for machinery and equipment.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company continually evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate the remaining estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets with finite lives may warrant revision or that the remaining balance of each may not be recoverable.
Financial Instruments
Based on Company estimates, the carrying amounts of cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximated fair value at December 31, 2010 and 2009. The fair value of the Company’s term loan was $1.5 billion and $469.7 million at December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translation
The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into United States dollars using year-end exchange rates. Sales and expenses are translated at average rates during the year. Adjustments resulting from this translation are deferred and reflected as a separate component of Common Stockholders’ Investment. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Transaction losses totaled $0.8 million, $7.7 million and $3.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Transaction gains and losses on intercompany advances to foreign subsidiaries for which settlement is not planned or anticipated in the foreseeable future are deferred and reflected as a component of Common Stockholders’ Investment.
Derivative Financial Instruments
On January 1, 2009, the Company adopted new accounting guidance regarding disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. This guidance requires enhanced disclosures regarding an entity’s derivatives and hedging activities, including how
11
and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for and how the derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The Company enters into contracts for certain derivative financial instruments to mitigate foreign exchange rate risk of specific foreign currency denominated transactions and to manage and preserve the economic value of cash flows in non-functional currencies. The Company also enters into contracts for certain derivative financial instruments to mitigate interest rate risk. The Company has designated several of these contracts as cash flow hedges. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.
The contractual amounts of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward contracts not designated as cash flow hedges, by currency, were as follows:

Based upon December 31, 2010 foreign currency exchange rates, all of the Company’s outstanding contracts were recorded at fair value.
The Company conducts its business on a multinational basis in a wide variety of foreign currencies and hedges foreign currency exposures arising from various receivables, liabilities and expected inventory purchases. Derivative instruments that are utilized to hedge the foreign currency risk associated with anticipated inventory purchases and cash collections of accounts receivable in foreign currencies are designated as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses on these instruments, to the extent that they have been effective, are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized in earnings when the related inventory is sold or the accounts receivable is recorded. Ineffectiveness related to these hedge instruments that was recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings consisted of pre-tax losses of $1.1 million, $5.3 million and $6.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The maturity of these instruments generally does not exceed 18 months. The Consolidated Statements of Earnings also includes $2.7 million of pre-tax losses for the year ended December 31, 2009 as a result of the discontinuance of cash flow hedges because the original forecasted transaction did not occur within the original specified time period or the two months thereafter. There was no income or loss for this type of transaction in 2010. The accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, related to foreign currency forward contracts was $0.8 million and $1.6 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company estimates that $2.5 million of income included in the $0.8 million of net accumulated other comprehensive loss will be reclassified into earnings over the next 12 months.
13
To manage a portion of its exposure to changes in LIBOR-based interest rates on its variable rate debt, the Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to effectively fix the interest payments on $743.7 million ($650.0 million plus€70.0 million) of its term loan. All of the swaps in place at December 31, 2010 have been designated as cash flow hedges of LIBOR-based interest payments. The effective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), while any ineffective portion is recorded as an adjustment to interest expense. The differential paid or received on the interest rate swap is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense. Interest rate swaps in place at December 31, 2010 were as follows:

The Company recognized interest expense of $13.1 million, $2.5 million, and $1.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively, related to the effective portion of its interest rate swaps. This interest expense combined with the interest paid to the Company’s lender based on the terms of the Company’s credit facility results in effective interest rates equal to the swap rates presented in the table above. Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, related to interest rate swaps was $15.1 million and $5.0 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company estimates that $8.1 million of the $15.1 million accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, will be reclassified into earnings over the next 12 months.

Derivative instruments are subject to significant concentrations of credit risk to the banking industry. The Company manages counterparty credit risk by only entering into derivative contracts with large commercial financial institutions. The maximum amount of pre-tax loss, not considering netting arrangements, if any, which the Company would have incurred if the counterparties to its derivative instruments failed to meet their obligations was $8.8 million at December 31, 2010 and $3.9 million at December 31, 2009. At December 31, 2010, the Company had no knowledge of any of counterparty default.
16
The Company also has cross-currency foreign currency-denominated debt obligations that are designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure associated with its net investments in non-United States operations. The currency effects of the debt obligations are reflected in other comprehensive income (loss) where they offset translation gains and losses recorded on the Company’s net investments in Germany. The Company recognized a gain of $7.4 million and a loss of $4.0 million in other comprehensive income (loss) related to net investment hedges for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The Company also uses natural hedges to mitigate risks associated with foreign currency exposures. For example, oftentimes the Company has non-functional currency denominated receivables from customers for which the exposure is partially mitigated by a corresponding non-functional currency payable to a vendor.
Stock Split
All previously reported net earnings per share and number of shares in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted to reflect the two-for-one split of the Company’s common stock effective May 27, 2008.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company reports comprehensive income (loss) in addition to net earnings (loss). Comprehensive income (loss) is a more inclusive financial reporting method that includes disclosure of financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net earnings (loss). The Company reports comprehensive income (loss) and accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Consolidated Statements of Common Stockholders’ Investment. Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of income taxes, was as follows:

Revenue Recognition
Revenue from long-term sales contracts, such as for the manufacture of the Company’s original equipment and certain replacement parts, is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method due to the length of time to fully manufacture and assemble the Company’s original equipment or replacement parts. The Company measures revenue recognized based on the ratio of actual costs incurred to date in relation to total estimated costs to be incurred. The percentage-of-completion method of accounting for these contracts most accurately reflects the status of these uncompleted contracts in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and most accurately measures the matching of revenues
17
with expenses. Revenue from all other types of sales, primarily sales of aftermarket parts, net of estimated returns and allowances, is recognized when all of the following circumstances are satisfied: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collectibility is reasonably assured, and delivery has occurred or services have been rendered. Criteria for revenue recognition is generally met at the time products are shipped, as the terms are FOB shipping point.
Included in the current portion of liabilities to customers on uncompleted contracts and warranties are advances in excess of related costs and earnings on uncompleted contracts of $149.7 million and $135.4 million at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Warranty
Sales of the Company’s products generally carry typical manufacturers’ warranties, the majority of which cover products for one year, based on terms that are generally accepted in the marketplace. The Company records provisions for estimated warranty and other related costs as revenue is recognized based on historical warranty loss experience and periodically adjusts these provisions to reflect actual experience.
Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs
Revenue received from shipping and handling fees is reflected in sales. Shipping fee revenue was insignificant for all periods presented. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of products sold.
Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are provided to reflect temporary differences between the financial and tax basis of assets and liabilities using presently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Fair Value Measurements
Accounting guidance regarding fair value measurements defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This guidance classifies the inputs used to measure the fair value into the following hierarchy:
| | |
Level 1 | | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities |
Level 2 | | Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities |
Level 3 | | Unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities |
The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2008 and it did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results or operations.
18
The Company has determined that its financial assets and liabilities are level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value were as follows:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new accounting guidance regarding business combinations. This guidance defines how acquirers recognize and measure the consideration transferred, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, noncontrolling interests, and goodwill acquired at their fair values as of the acquisition date. This guidance became effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2009 and it did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In March 2008, the FASB issued accounting guidance regarding disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities. This guidance requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivatives and hedging activity and how they effect an entity’s financial position. This guidance became effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2009 and it did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In May 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance regarding management’s assessment of subsequent events. This guidance establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. In particular, this guidance outlines (i) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; (ii) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and (iii) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. This guidance became effective on a prospective basis for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company
19
adopted this guidance in June 2009 and it did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In June 2009, the FASB issued the Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”). The Codification is the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The use of the Codification became effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company adopted the Codification in September 2009 and it did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In October 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance regarding the accounting for revenue in arrangements with multiple deliverables. This guidance addresses the accounting for multiple deliverable arrangements and clarifies how arrangement consideration should be allocated to the separate units of accounting, when applicable. This guidance becomes effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE B – ACQUISITIONS
Terex Mining Acquisition
On February 19, 2010, the Company completed its acquisition of Terex Corporation’s mining equipment business (“Terex Mining”) for $1.0 billion in cash and 5,809,731 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain post-closing net assets, net debt and other adjustments. The financial results for the year ended December 31, 2010 include the net assets and results of operations of Terex Mining since the February 19, 2010 date of acquisition, as well as the acquisition accounting adjustments and acquisition costs related to the Terex Mining acquisition. As a result, the Company’s financial results for year ended December 31, 2010 are not necessarily comparable to the results for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 or as of December 31, 2009 and may not be indicative of future results. Terex Mining has been integrated into the surface mining segment.
Terex Mining is a worldwide manufacturer of hydraulic excavators, off-highway haul trucks and drills, which are complementary to the Company’s existing product lines. As a result of this acquisition, the Company has significantly expanded its product portfolio, which allows it to compete in a larger portion of the mining machinery market. These factors contributed to a purchase price resulting in the recognition of goodwill. Total goodwill acquired was $590.7 million, of which $230.7 million is deductible for income tax purposes.
The acquisition of Terex Mining was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Under this method, the total consideration transferred to consummate the acquisition was allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values as of the closing date of the acquisition. The principles of acquisition method of accounting require extensive use of

estimates and judgments to allocate the consideration transferred to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values.
The asset and share purchase agreement between the Company and Terex Corporation contains a post-closing purchase price adjustment provision which includes a calculation of the net asset value (as defined in the asset and share purchase agreement) of Terex Mining as of the closing date of the acquisition. During the course of the calculation of the purchase price adjustment, the Company identified certain material potential adjustments to specific items on the balance sheet of Terex Mining as of the closing date of the acquisition. These adjustments are being contested by Terex Corporation and, as a result, have not been recognized as a receivable in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2010.
The consideration transferred to acquire Terex Mining was as follows (dollars in thousands):
| | | | |
Cash consideration, including cash acquired | | | $1,042,691 | |

Pro Forma Results of Operations
The following unaudited pro forma results of operations assumes that the Company acquired Terex Mining and amended its credit facilities on January 1, 2010 and 2009. The unaudited pro forma results include adjustments to reflect additional interest expense, depreciation expense and amortization of intangible assets, as well as the effects of adjustments made to the carrying value of certain assets.
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended December 31, | |
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | |
| |
| | (Dollars in thousands) | |
| | |
Sales | | | $3,752,195 | | | | $3,806,488 | |

Net earnings per share: | | | | | | | | |
Basic | | | $4.21 | | | | $4.04 | |
Diluted | | | $4.13 | | | | $3.97 | |
The unaudited pro forma financial information presented above is not necessarily indicative of either the results of operations that would have occurred had the acquisition of Terex Mining been effective on January 1, 2009 or of the Company’s future results of operations. Also, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect the costs that the Company incurred to integrate Terex Mining. These integration costs were not material.
Finished goods and work in process inventories have been adjusted to their estimated fair market value. Finished parts were valued at their estimated selling prices, less the sum of (i) costs of disposal; and (ii) a reasonable profit allowance for the Company’s selling effort, and work in process was valued at estimated selling prices of finished goods less the sum of (a) costs to complete; (b) costs of disposal; and (c) a reasonable profit allowance for the completing and selling effort of the Company based on profit for similar finished goods. As this inventory adjustment was directly attributed to the transaction and did not have a continuing impact, it is not reflected in the unaudited pro forma results of operations presented above. However, this inventory adjustment resulted in a charge to cost of products sold in the periods subsequent to the consummation of the acquisition of Terex Mining during which the related inventories were sold. The actual charge to cost of products sold for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $38.9 million.

As of February 19, 2010, the amended credit facilities also included secured term loan facilities totaling $1,473.8
25
million consisting of (i) $1,280.0 million ($390.0 million matures on May 4, 2014 and $890.0 million matures on February 19, 2016); (ii) A$124.0 million ($104.4 million) with a maturity date of February 19, 2016; and (iii) €73.1 million ($89.4 million) with a maturity date of May 4, 2014. The entire new secured revolving credit facility is eligible to be used for letters of credit.
Borrowings under the secured revolving credit facility that mature on May 4, 2012 and May 4, 2014 bear interest, payable no less frequently than quarterly, at (i) LIBOR or EURIBOR, plus the applicable spread; or (ii) a base rate determined by reference to the United States prime lending rate, the federal funds rate, or one month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus the applicable spread. The unsecured German revolving credit facility bears interest, payable no less frequently than quarterly, at EURIBOR, plus the applicable spread.
Under each revolving credit facility, the Company pays a commitment fee based on the unused portion of such facilities, payable quarterly, at rates ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% depending on the total leverage ratio for revolving credit facilities that mature on May 4, 2012, and 0.50% for revolving credit facilities that mature on May 4, 2014, and when applicable, customary letter of credit fees.
Borrowings under the term loan facility that mature on May 4, 2014 bear interest, payable no less frequently than quarterly, at (i) LIBOR, plus the applicable spread, for United States dollar denominated loans; and (ii) EURIBOR, plus the applicable spread, for euro denominated loans.
Borrowings under the term loan facility that mature on February 19, 2016 bear interest, payable no less frequently than quarterly, at (i) LIBOR (subject to a 1.50% floor), plus the applicable spread (based on the Company’s total leverage ratio), for United States dollar denominated base rate loans; and (ii) an offered rate of interest based on deposits of Australian dollars, plus (a) the difference between three-month LIBOR and 1.50% (if greater), and (b) between 2.75% and 3.00% (based on the Company’s total leverage ratio) for Australian dollar denominated base rate loans.
The credit facilities contain operating and financial covenants that, among other things, could limit the Company’s ability to obtain additional sources of capital. The Company’s financial covenants require that it maintain, on a trailing four-quarter basis as of the end of each fiscal quarter, a total leverage ratio of not more than 3.50 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0.

At December 31, 2010, the Company had borrowings of $1.5 billion ($1.3 billion plus€72.6 million plus A$123.1 million) under its term loan facility. To manage a portion of its exposure to changes in LIBOR-based and EURIBOR-based interest rates, the Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements that effectively fix the interest payments on $743.7 million ($650.0 million plus€70.0 million) of outstanding borrowings under its term loan facility at a weighted average interest rate of 2.6%, plus the applicable spread. The remaining $752.0 million of outstanding term loan borrowings at December 31, 2010 were at a weighted average interest rate of 4.8%, including the applicable spread.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
The 293,912 vested and exercisable SARs at December 31, 2010 have a weighted-average exercise price of $28.39 per share, an aggregate intrinsic value of $17.9 million and a weighted average remaining contractual term of 6.8 years.
At December 31, 2010, approximately 1,336,000 of the outstanding SARs were vested or were expected to vest and these SARs had a weighted average exercise price of $27.43 per share, an intrinsic value of $82.8 million and a weighted-average remaining contractual term of 7.9 years.
At December 31, 2010, there was $11.5 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to SARs that are vested or expect to vest. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.4 years. The grant date fair value of the SARs was calculated using the Black-Sholes pricing model. The assumptions used in this model were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended December 31, | |
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | | | 2008 | |
| | | |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 3.17% | | | | 2.82% | | | | 3.49% | |

Dividend yield | | | 0.17% | | | | 0.70% | | | | 0.19% | |
The risk-free interest rate was based on the United States Government Treasury strips rate on the date of grant and with a maturity equal to the expected life of the SARs. The expected stock price volatility was based on the historical activity of the Company’s common stock. The expected life was calculated using the simplified method for “plain-vanilla” issuances. The expected dividend yield was based on the annual dividends that have been paid on the Company’s common stock.

A valuation allowance must be used to reduce the net deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Currently, the Company has valuation allowances established for United States state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards and United Kingdom, Ukraine, India and Poland deferred tax assets. A summary of the valuation allowance was as follows:

Year ended December 31, 2010 | | | $2,988 | | | | $1,311 | | | | $2,131 | | | | $2,168 | |
At December 31, 2010, the Company had $30.2 million of state NOL carryforwards, which expire in the years 2011 through 2019, available to offset future state taxable income in various states.
Cumulative undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are considered to be permanently reinvested and for which United States income taxes have not been provided by the Company amounted to approximately $763 million at December 31, 2010. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of additional tax which would be payable upon repatriation of such earnings; however, due to foreign tax credit limitations, higher effective United States income tax rates and foreign withholding taxes, additional taxes could be incurred.
Unrecognized tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | | | 2008 | |
| | (Dollars in thousands) | |

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
At December 31, 2010, the Company had $17.0 million of unrecognized tax benefits, $3.4 million of which would impact its effective tax rate if recognized. At December 31, 2009, the Company had $18.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits, $3.9 million of which would impact its effective tax rate if recognized. The Company reasonably estimates that the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits for prior tax period positions will decrease by $3.9 million in the next 12 months due to the close of an open tax year. The estimated decrease in the reserve relates primarily to uncertainty concerning intercompany transactions. However, the Company cannot reasonably estimate the change in reserve due to tax positions expected to be taken during 2011.
33
The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense. Expense or (income) for interest and penalties for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 was ($1.3) million, $0.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively. The Company has provided for $2.3 million and $3.4 million of accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. Open tax years related to United States state jurisdictions remain subject to examination but are not considered material. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities in its major jurisdictions as follows:

NOTE K – PENSION AND RETIREMENT PLANS
The Company has several pension and retirement plans covering certain of its employees in the United States and Europe. All plans have a measurement date of December 31.
The Bucyrus International, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) provides an allocation to the Company’s senior management equal to the amount that cannot be allocated to such employees under the Company’s cash balance pension plan due to the Internal Revenue Service-imposed annual compensation limits. Benefits are to be paid under the SERP upon the employee’s separation from service in a lump sum or in five or 10 annual installments, as the participating employee elects.

The Company’s Benefit Plan Committee (“Committee”), under the guidance of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors, oversees investment matters related to all of the Company’s funded benefit plans. The Committee works with external actuaries and investment consultants on an ongoing basis to establish and monitor investment strategies and target asset allocations. Forecasted cash flows for plan liabilities are regularly updated based on annual valuation results. Target allocations are determined based upon an asset and liability study for each respective plan. The study is intended to reduce risk, provide long-term financial stability for the plan(s) and maintain funded levels which meet long-term plan obligations while preserving sufficient liquidity for near-term benefit payments.
In selecting the expected long-term rate of return on assets, the Committee considered the average rate of earnings expected on the classes of funds invested or to be invested to provide for the benefits of these plans. This included considering the trusts’ targeted asset allocation for the year and the expected returns likely to be earned over the next 20 years. The assumptions used for the return of each asset class are conservative when compared to long-term historical returns.
The Company’s pension plans’ weighted-average actual and targeted asset allocations by asset category were as follows:

The desired investment objective is a long-term real rate of return on assets that is approximately 6% greater than the assumed rate of inflation measured by the Consumer Price Index, currently assumed to be approximately 2.5%. The target rate of return for the plans has been based upon an analysis of historical returns supplemented with an economic and structural review of each asset class. The Committee realizes that market performance varies and that a 6% real rate of return may not be meaningful during some periods. The Committee also realizes that historical performance is no guarantee of future performance.
To achieve these goals, the minimum and maximum allocation ranges for fixed securities and equity securities are as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | United States Plans | |
| | Minimum | | | Maximum | |
Equity | | | 61% | | | | 69% | |
Fixed | | | 31% | | | | 39% | |
Cash equivalents | | | 0% | | | | 4% | |
Investment in international oriented equity funds is limited to a maximum of 18.25% of the equity range.
37
The Company’s current United States pension plan asset allocation is 66% equity investments and 34% fixed income investments. The equity investments portfolio consists of mutual funds invested in large-cap disciplined stocks (41%), small/mid cap stocks (9%), emerging market stocks (4%) and international stocks (12%). The fixed income portfolio consists of mutual funds invested in core fixed income bonds (27%), high yield bonds (4%) and emerging market debt (3%).
The following table summarizes the fair value of the Company’s United States pension plan assets by asset category. All plan assets are level 1 assets within the fair value hierarchy (for further level information, see Note A):

Future contributions to the plans will be dependent on many factors, including the performance of existing plan assets and long-term discount rates.
The Company expects to contribute $7.5 million to its domestic pension plans and $7.7 million to its non-United States pension plans in 2011. Upon completion of an analysis of the funded status of the Company’s domestic pension plans, additional contributions may be made in 2011.
Estimated future benefit payments from the Company’s pension plans are as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | United States Plans | | | Non-United States Plans | |
| | (Dollars in thousands) | |
| | |
2011 | | | $8,326 | | | | $7,800 | |

2016-2020 | | | $66,455 | | | | $42,766 | |
The estimated net loss and prior service cost for the United States defined benefit pension plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic benefit cost in 2011 are $2.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively. The estimated net
38
gain for the non-United States defined benefit pension plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic benefit cost in 2011 is zero.
The Company has 401(k) savings plans available to substantially all United States employees. Matching employer contributions are made in accordance with plan provisions subject to certain limitations. Matching employer contributions made were $4.5 million, $3.9 million and $3.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
NOTE L – CALCULATION OF NET EARNINGS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK
Basic net earnings per share of common stock was computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted net earnings per share of common stock was computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding after giving effect to dilutive securities. The reconciliation of the numerators and the denominators of the basic and diluted net earnings per share of common stock calculations were as follows:

NOTE M – SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION
The Company has two reportable segments, surface mining and underground mining, which are based on the internal organization used by management for making operating decisions, measuring and evaluating financial performance, allocating resources, and based on the similarity of customers served, distinctive products and services, common use of facilities and economic results attained.
The accounting policies of the Company’s segments are the same as those described in Note A. The operating earnings of each segment do not include interest income, interest
39
expense, other income and expense and a provision for income taxes. Corporate expenses consist primarily of costs related to employees who provide services across both of the Company’s segments. There are no significant intersegment sales. Identifiable assets are those used in the operations of each segment.

The Company does not consider itself to be dependent upon any single customer or group of customers; however, on an annual basis a single customer may account for a large percentage of its sales, particularly original equipment sales. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2008, no one customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated sales. For the year ended December 31, 2009, one customer accounted for approximately 14% of the Company’s consolidated sales.

NOTE N – COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES, CREDIT RISKS AND CONCENTRATIONS
Environmental
The Company’s operations and properties are subject to a broad range of federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations relating to environmental matters, including laws and regulations governing discharges into the air and water, the handling and disposal of solid and hazardous substances and wastes, and the remediation of contamination associated with releases of hazardous substances at the Company’s facilities and at off-site disposal locations. These laws are complex, change frequently and have tended to become more stringent over time. Future events, such as required compliance with more stringent laws or regulations, more vigorous enforcement policies of regulatory agencies or stricter or different interpretations of existing laws, could require additional expenditures by the Company, which may be material.
Environmental problems have not interfered in any material respect with the Company’s manufacturing operations to date. The Company believes that its compliance with statutory requirements respecting environmental quality will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although no assurance to that effect can be given. The Company has an ongoing program to address potential environmental problems.
Certain environmental laws, such as the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”), provide for strict, joint and several liability for investigation and remediation of spills and other releases of hazardous substances. Such laws may apply to conditions at properties currently or formerly owned or operated by an entity or its predecessors, as well as to conditions at properties at which wastes or other contamination attributable to an entity or its predecessors come to be located.
The Company has previously been named as a potentially responsible party under CERCLA and analogous state laws at other sites throughout the United States. The Company believes it has determined its remediation liabilities with respect to the sites discussed above and does not believe that any such remaining liabilities, if any, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although no assurance to that effect can be given. The Company may incur additional liabilities with respect to these sites in the future, the costs of which could be material, and may incur remediation liability in the future with respect to sites formerly or currently owned or operated by the Company or with respect to off-site disposal locations, the costs of which could be material.
Over the past three years, expenditures for ongoing compliance, remediation, monitoring and cleanup have been immaterial. The Company believes that expenditures for compliance and remediation will not have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although no assurance to that effect can be given.
43
Product Warranty
The Company recognizes the cost associated with its warranty policies on its products as revenue is recognized. The amount recognized is based on historical experience. Changes in accrued warranty costs were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | |

| | | | | | | | |
Balance at December 31 | | | $166,867 | | | | $49,442 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Product Liability
The Company is subject to numerous product liability claims, many of which relate to products no longer manufactured by the Company or its subsidiaries, and other claims arising in the ordinary course of business in federal and state courts. Such claims are generally related to property damage and to personal injury. The Company’s products are operated by its employees and its customers’ employees and independent contractors at various work sites in the United States and abroad. In the United States, workers’ claims against employers related to workplace injuries are generally limited by state workers’ compensation statutes, but such limitations do not apply to equipment suppliers. The Company has insurance covering most of these claims and has various limits of liability depending on the insurance policy year in question. At the time a liability associated with a claim becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated, the Company accrues for the liability by a charge to earnings. For all other cases, an estimate of the costs associated with the matters cannot be made due to the inherent uncertainties in the litigation process; however, the Company believes that the final resolution of these claims and other similar claims which are likely to arise in the future will not individually or in the aggregate have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although no assurance to that effect can be given.
Asbestos Liability
The Company has been named as a co-defendant in numerous personal injury liability cases alleging damages due to exposure to asbestos and other substances. The Company has insurance covering most of these cases and has various limits of liability depending on the insurance policy year in question. At the time a liability associated with a case becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated, the Company accrues for the liability by a charge to earnings. For all other cases, an estimate of the costs associated with the matters cannot be made due to the inherent uncertainties in the litigation process; however, the Company does not believe that these costs will have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although no assurance to that effect can be given.
44
The reconciliation of claims was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | 2010 | | | 2009 | |
Number of claims pending at January 1 | | | 303 | | | | 309 | |
New claims filed | | | 21 | | | | 26 | |
Claims dismissed, settled or resolved | | | (44 | ) | | | (32 | ) |
| | | | | | | | |
Number of claims pending at December 31 | | | 280 | | | | 303 | |
| | | | | | | | |
The average claim settlement amount was immaterial in both years.
Other Litigation
In August 2010, the Company received letters from the U.S. Department of Justice and from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requesting certain documents and information and notifying the Company that the SEC is conducting a non-public, fact-finding inquiry of the Company. The Company is cooperating fully with this inquiry.
The Company is involved in various other litigation arising in the normal course of business. The Company does not believe that its recovery or liability, if any, under any such pending litigation will have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although no assurance to that effect can be given.
Commitments
The Company has obligations under various operating leases and rental and service agreements. The expense relating to these agreements was $34.9 million, $21.0 million and $26.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Future minimum annual payments under non-cancelable agreements are as follows (dollars in thousands):
| | | | |
Year | | Amount | |
2011 | | | $28,966 | |
2012 | | | 20,129 | |
2013 | | | 15,960 | |
2014 | | | 12,281 | |
2015 | | | 10,962 | |
After 2015 | | | 20,069 | |
| | | | |
| | | $108,367 | |
| | | | |
Credit Risks
A significant portion of the Company’s sales are to customers whose activities are related to the coal, copper, oil sands and iron ore mining industries, including some who are located in foreign countries. The Company generally extends credit to these customers and, therefore, collection of receivables may be affected by the mining industry economy and the economic conditions in the countries where the customers are located. However, the Company closely monitors extension of credit and has not experienced significant credit losses. Also, most foreign sales are made to large, well-established companies. The Company generally requires letters of credit on sales to smaller foreign companies.
45
Concentrations
The Company currently purchases alternating current drives and other electrical parts, an important component of its equipment, from Siemens Energy & Automation, Inc. (“Siemens”). The loss of Siemens, the Company’s only critical sole source supplier, could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company currently purchases motors, an important component of its room and pillar equipment, from one supplier. The loss of this supplier could cause a delay in manufacturing due to the time required to have motors of a new supplier approved and certified by the Mine Safety and Health Administration. The loss of this supplier could also result in a possible loss of sales, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Bucyrus International, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bucyrus International, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, common stockholders’ investment, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010. We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Terex Mining, which was acquired on February 19, 2010 and whose financial statements constitute 39% of total assets and 28% of revenues of the consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
47
(3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bucyrus International, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the criteria established inInternal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Bucyrus International, Inc.:
The management of Bucyrus International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of published financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and Secretary, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, the Company’s management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria. Management has excluded the Terex Mining business from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 because Terex Mining was acquired during 2010. The total assets and total revenues of the Terex Mining business represented approximately 39% and 28%, respectively, of the Company’s consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has issued an audit report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, which is included herein.

Business
Pending Merger With Caterpillar Inc.
On November 14, 2010, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Caterpillar Inc., pursuant to which we will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Caterpillar Inc.
In connection with the merger, each outstanding share of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (other than those held by us, Caterpillar Inc. or any subsidiary of Caterpillar Inc.) and other than those shares with respect to which appraisal rights are properly demanded and not waived, withdrawn or lost, will be converted into the right to receive $92 in cash, without interest.
The completion of the merger is subject to certain conditions, including, among others (i) the absence of certain legal restraints to the consummation of the merger or the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and (ii) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and certain other antitrust approvals. On January 20, 2011, our stockholders approved the Merger Agreement.
Terex Mining Acquisition
On February 19, 2010, we completed the acquisition of the mining equipment business (“Terex Mining”) of Terex Corporation for $1.0 billion in cash and 5,809,731 shares of our common stock, subject to certain post-closing net assets, net debt and other adjustments. Terex Mining is a worldwide manufacturer of hydraulic excavators, off-highway haul trucks and drills, which are complementary to our existing product lines. As a result of this acquisition, we have significantly expanded our product portfolio, which allows us to compete in a larger portion of the mining machinery market. We believe that this expanded product portfolio has made us the premier supplier of mining equipment.
Also on February 19, 2010, we entered into an amendment to our existing credit agreement to provide for an additional new secured term loan of $1.0 billion and $167.5 million of additional revolving credit facilities to fund the cash portion of the purchase price for
52
Terex Mining and provide us with new revolving credit facilities to support our future working capital needs and capital expenditure plan.
Terex Mining Acquisition Rationale
We believe that our acquisition of Terex Mining has made us the premier supplier of mining equipment. This acquisition has allowed us to (i) expand our global geographic footprint since there was little geographic overlap between our current operations and the operations of Terex Mining; (ii) diversify our product portfolio across a broader range of commodities; (iii) increase our potential surface mining market to approximately $34 billion as of December 31, 2010; and (iv) utilize the services of an expanded team of approximately 10,700 employees and contract employees in nearly 100 locations around the world.
Certain Strategic and Financial Benefits of the Acquisition of Terex Mining
Enhanced Scale and Scope. The products acquired in the Terex Mining acquisition consisted of the world’s largest hydraulic excavators, rugged haul trucks, advanced drilling machines and highwall mining systems. As of the date of the acquisition, Terex Mining had 38 facilities around the world with approximately 2,100 employees. As a result of this acquisition, we have expanded our product offering into the growing hydraulic excavator market, as well as the truck and hydraulic track drill product categories.
Diversified Customer, Commodities and Geographic End Markets.We have benefited from Terex Mining’s strong presence in the Asia Pacific (“APAC”) region. With this acquisition, our sales in the APAC region have increased. We also diversified our overall commodity exposure by reducing our percentage of total sales generated by coal-related mining equipment and increased our percentage of total sales generated by iron ore related mining equipment.
Aftermarket Revenue Opportunities. The acquisition of Terex Mining has generated additional aftermarket revenue opportunities. As a result of this acquisition, our installed base of surface mining machinery has grown from approximately $20 billion at December 31, 2009 to approximately $34 billion at December 31, 2010. With a broader product portfolio, we have experienced an increase in opportunities for aftermarket parts and services.
Incremental Access to Growing Economies. The acquisition of Terex Mining has increased our access to growing economies. Our product lines are well positioned in the fast-growing, developing countries of Brazil, Russia, India and China.
Significant Synergy Potential.The acquisition of Terex Mining enhanced our earnings in 2010 and should allow us to benefit from synergies in future years. We expect to be able to realize over $100 million in annual run-rate operating synergies, which we believe may be achievable by the end of 2011. A substantial portion of these synergies are expected to result from the integration of our global manufacturing facilities and leveraging manufacturing centers of excellence, as well as the integration of market distribution, engineering and product development resources. Additional cost savings are expected to be realized through the integration of management functions and reducing purchasing expenses and raw material costs, similar to our successful integration of DBT GmbH following its acquisition in May 2007. We achieved approximately $40 million of synergy savings in 2010 and expect to reach $100 million in total synergies in 2011.
53
Cultural Similarities.The culture across the mining industry is both universal and unique. The established culture at Terex Mining facilitated the integration process, which was substantially complete as of December 31, 2010.
Company Overview
We are a leading designer and manufacturer of safe and highly productive mining equipment for the extraction of coal, copper, oil sands, iron ore and other minerals in major mining centers throughout the world. In addition to the manufacture of original equipment, we also provide the aftermarket replacement parts and service for this equipment. We operate in two business segments: surface mining (including the principal products of Terex Mining) and underground mining. Substantially all of our products and services are marketed under theBucyrus name. We have manufacturing facilities in Australia, China, the Czech Republic, Germany, Mexico, the United Kingdom and the United States, and service and sales centers in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, India, Indonesia, Peru, Russia, South Africa and the United States. The largest markets for our surface mining original equipment and aftermarket parts and service have historically been in Australia, Canada, China, India, South Africa, South America and the United States. We expect these markets to continue to be our largest surface mining equipment markets and we expect growth in the Russian and Asian markets. The largest markets for our underground mining original equipment and aftermarket parts and service have historically been in the United States, Australia and China. We expect these markets to continue to be our largest underground mining equipment markets, and we expect potential growth in the Russian, Eastern European and Indian markets in the next three to five years.
The market for our original equipment is closely correlated with customer expectations of sustained strength in prices of mined commodities. Growth in demand for these commodities is a function of, among other things, economic activity, population increases and continuing improvements in standards of living in many areas of the world. In 2010, the market prices for the primary commodities mined by our equipment (coal, copper, iron ore and oil) increased significantly from the end of 2009.
As of December 31, 2010, we expect to see continued growth in commodity demand in 2011 as the global economic environment continues to improve; however, we cannot accurately predict the future demand for, or price of, commodities. The condition of the global financial markets and availability of credit impacts the capital spending by our customers in all regions of the world and in both of our segments. The growth in commodities and improving global economic conditions may increase capital spending by major mining companies in 2011.
Our aftermarket parts and service sales tend to be less cyclical than our original equipment sales. Our original equipment is typically kept in continuous operation by our customers for four to 40 years, requiring regular maintenance and repair throughout its productive life. The market for our aftermarket parts and service is closely correlated with the growth of the gross domestic product (“GDP”). Global economic development, the industrialization of Brazil, Russia, India and China and continued government economic stimulus may contribute to improved GDP growth in 2011 compared to 2010.
54
The size of our installed base of surface mining and underground mining original equipment at December 31, 2010 was approximately $34 billion and $10 billion, respectively, based on estimated replacement value, compared to approximately $20 billion and $10 billion for surface mining and underground mining, respectively, at December 31, 2009. This installed base of original equipment provides the foundation for our future aftermarket activities. Our ability to provide on-time delivery of reliable parts and prompt service are also important drivers of our aftermarket sales.
A substantial portion of our sales and operating earnings is attributable to our operations located outside the United States. We generally sell our original equipment, including that sold directly to foreign customers, and most of our aftermarket parts in either United States dollars or euros. A portion of our aftermarket parts sales is denominated in the currency of the country in which our products are sold. Aftermarket services are paid for primarily in local currency, which is naturally hedged by our payment of local labor in local currency.
In our surface mining segment, activity at the end of 2010 for our original equipment was generally at a high level. Quote and order activity for our blasthole drills continued to accelerate through the fourth quarter of 2010 and is expected to remain high at least through mid-2011; the Australian, South African and South American markets have the highest level of activity. Electric mining shovel activity is expected to remain high throughout 2011 and is being driven by expansion in oil sands, gold, copper and iron ore mines. The developing economies of Brazil, Russia, India and China remain key growth areas for our electric mining shovels. Most dragline opportunities are in Australia due to the strength in Australian coking coal prices and global demand for thermal coal. New orders for our hydraulic excavators are expected to be strong in 2011, particularly in the Australian coal market. Improving iron ore and coal prices has caused a favorable truck market and increased activity levels for our off-highway haul trucks.
Conditions for aftermarket parts and service in our surface mining segment remained strong as of December 31, 2010 as a result of our $34 billion installed base of surface mining original equipment. Aftermarket parts and service activity for our electric mining shovels and blasthole drills in the South American market has been high and is expected to remain at a high level in 2011 as customers forecast stability of commodity prices. Aftermarket activity for our draglines was strong in 2010 as customers increased their 2011 capital and maintenance budgets for planned maintenance shutdowns and is expected to remain strong in 2011 based on improved commodity prices. Activity for our hydraulic excavators aftermarket parts and service has been high, particularly in Australia, Brazil and India, and the outlook for 2011 is generally positive with Australia, the United States and Canada expected to be the strongest markets. Aftermarket parts and services for our off-highway haul trucks in 2011 is expected to be strongest in the Australian and Indian markets.
In our underground mining segment, activity for our longwall equipment continues to remain very high, particularly in China and Australia. Room and pillar activity continues to improve, particularly for transportation equipment and continuous miners in China as the coal mining industry expands. As of December 31, 2010, we expect Australia and China to be strong markets for our underground mining original equipment in 2011.
55
Conditions for aftermarket parts and service in our underground mining segment remained strong at the end of 2010 but are expected to remain relatively flat in 2011 compared to 2010; however, the region and product mix is expected to have some significant changes. We expect to see a decline in longwall equipment aftermarket parts and service in Western Europe as a result of one-time events for large longwall projects that are not expected to repeat in 2011. We also expect a decline in aftermarket parts and service in Australia as a result of rebuild projects in 2010 that are not expected to repeat in 2011. These decreases are expected to be offset by increases in markets such as India and China. As global consumption of coal continues to grow steadily, these two emerging markets are expected to invest heavily in original equipment and aftermarket parts and services.
Installed Base
Our total original equipment installed base of approximately $44 billion, based on estimated replacement value, at December 31, 2010, includes approximately $34 billion of surface mining original equipment and approximately $10 billion of underground mining original equipment, provides the foundation for our future aftermarket sales. Over the life of certain machines, customer purchases of aftermarket parts can exceed the original purchase price of the machine. Additionally, we generally realize higher gross margins on sales of our aftermarket parts than on sales of our original equipment. Moreover, because our machines tend to operate continuously in all market conditions, with expected lives ranging from approximately four to 40 years, and have predictable parts and maintenance needs, our aftermarket business has historically been more stable and predictable than the market for our original equipment, which is closely correlated with expectations of sustained strength in commodity markets.
Backlog
Our backlog level, which represents unfilled orders for our products and services, allows us to more accurately forecast our upcoming sales and plan our production accordingly. Our backlog also provides us with a relatively predictive level of expected sales and cash flows for the next 12 months. Due to the high cost of some of our original equipment, our backlog is subject to volatility, particularly over relatively short periods. A portion of our backlog is related to multi-year contracts that will generate revenue in future years. Our backlog at December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009, as well as the portion of our backlog which was expected to be recognized within 12 months of these dates, was as follows:

56
Included in surface mining total and next 12 months backlogs at December 31, 2010 were $698.3 million and $500.2 million, respectively, for Terex Mining. Excluding Terex Mining, surface mining total backlog decreased $52.4 million from December 31, 2009, primarily due to a decrease in aftermarket parts and service backlog in the United States market. The increase in underground mining total backlog was primarily due to an increase in room and pillar original equipment backlog as well as in increase in aftermarket parts and service backlog in the Indian, United States, Australian and Chinese markets.

| | | $4,173,219 | | | | $2,028,835 | | | | 105.7% | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
The increase in surface mining original equipment new orders for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 was primarily due to the inclusion of $869.7 million of Terex Mining new orders as well as increased electric mining shovel and, to a lesser extent, blasthole drill new orders. The increased electric mining shovel new orders were primarily in the South American market. The majority of the Terex Mining new orders in 2010 were for hydraulic excavators in the European/Asian, Australian and Chilean markets and off-highway haul trucks in the Australian, Indian and Brazilian markets.
The increase in surface mining aftermarket parts and service new orders for the year ended December 31, 2010 was primarily due to the inclusion of $556.6 million of Terex Mining new orders. Excluding the impact of Terex Mining, surface mining aftermarket parts and service new orders in 2010 were relatively flat compared to 2009. Increases in 2010 in the Indian, Australian and Brazilian markets were offset by decreases in the United States, Chinese and African markets. The increase in India was due to the receipt of a multi-year maintenance and repair contract and the increase in Australia was the result of new orders for large components on electric mining shovels and draglines. In Brazil, the refurbishment of electric mining shovels resulted in increased new orders in 2010. The decrease in the United States was primarily due to the cancellation of a multi-year maintenance and repair contract
57
resulting in a $29 million reduction of new orders, as well as reduced field service work. The decrease in China was due to customers increasing their inventory levels in 2009 and due to original equipment overhauls in 2009 that have not been repeated in 2010. Customers utilizing excess inventory in 2010 was the primary cause of the decrease in Africa.
Total surface mining new orders for the year ended December 31, 2010 were favorably impacted by approximately $34 million due to the effect of the weaker U.S. dollar on orders and beginning of period backlog denominated in foreign currencies.
The increase in underground mining original equipment new orders for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 was across all product lines. New orders for longwall equipment increased in the Australian market and new orders for room and pillar equipment increased in the United States and Chinese markets. In Australia, two complete longwall systems plus the first phase of a third system were sold in 2010 compared to one complete longwall system in 2009. The room and pillar increase was primarily for continuous miners and transportation vehicles. All product lines were negatively impacted in 2009 as a result of global economic conditions.
The increase in underground mining aftermarket parts and service new orders for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 was across substantially all markets. The largest increases were in the United States, Australian and Indian markets. The increase in the United States was primarily due to increased longwall and room and pillar activities and an increase in room and pillar rebuilds. The increase in Australia was for longwall components for a large rebuild project, and in India a new order for a multi-year maintenance and repair contract was received in 2010 which accounted for the increase from 2009.
Total underground mining new orders for the year ended December 31, 2010 were favorably impacted by approximately $34 million due to the effect of the weaker U.S. dollar on orders and beginning of period backlog denominated in foreign currencies.

The increase in surface mining original equipment sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 was primarily due to the inclusion of $540.6 million of Terex Mining sales in 2010. Excluding the impact of Terex Mining, surface mining original equipment sales increased by approximately 24% in 2010 compared to 2009. The increases were primarily due to increased electric mining shovel sales in most major surface mining markets.
The increase in surface mining aftermarket parts and service sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 was primarily due to the inclusion of $491.5 million of Terex Mining sales in 2010. Excluding the impact of Terex Mining, aftermarket parts and service sales decreased by approximately 8% in 2010 compared to 2009. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales in the United States, African and Chinese markets, partially offset by increased sales in the Brazilian market. In the United States, there was a dragline repair and rebuild project and a dragline relocation project in 2009 that were not repeated in 2010. The decrease in Africa was primarily due to lower new orders in 2010 as a result of customers utilizing excess inventories in 2010 and the decrease in China was primarily due to customers reducing costs in 2010 after high spending levels in 2009.
The decrease in underground mining original equipment for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 was in the longwall and room and pillar product lines. The longwall decrease was due to higher longwall system sales in the Czech Republic in 2009 and the decrease in room and pillar equipment was primarily due to reduced sales of continuous miners and transportation equipment in the United States in 2010.
59
The increase in underground mining aftermarket parts and service sales for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to the year ended December 31, 2009 was across all markets except for the United States market. The largest increases were in the Western Europe and Russian markets. These increases were for aftermarket parts and services for longwall equipment. The decline in the United States market was due to reduced longwall activity in 2010, which was partially offset by increased room and pillar rebuilds.

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
Surface mining operating earnings for the year ended December 31, 2010 included Terex Mining earnings of $166.1 million before amortization of purchase accounting adjustments. As a result of the acquisition of Terex Mining, 2010 operating earnings were reduced by $68.0 million of amortization of acquisition accounting adjustments (primarily the write-up of inventory) and $19.7 million of acquisition costs. Operating earnings for the year ended December 31, 2010 were also negatively impacted by reduced underground mining original equipment sales and $14.9 million of expense related to the pending merger with Caterpillar Inc.
61
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $71.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $27.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The increase in interest expense in 2010 was primarily due to the new $1.0 billion secured term loan which was used to acquire Terex Mining. We expect interest expense to approximate $75 million to $80 million in 2011.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $145.1 million, or 31.5% of pre-tax earnings, compared to $134.6 million, or 30.1% of pre-tax earnings, for the year ended December 31, 2009. The rate increase in 2010 compared to 2009 was primarily due to non-deductible acquisition costs related to the Terex Mining acquisition and non-deductible costs related to the pending merger with Caterpillar Inc. We anticipate an effective tax rate of approximately 32% to 32.5% in 2011.

The decrease in surface mining original equipment sales for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to the year ended December 31, 2008 was primarily due to decreased electric mining shovels sales, which was partially offset by increased revenue from the manufacture and assembly of walking draglines for customers in Australia and Canada.
The increase in surface mining aftermarket parts and service sales for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to the year ended December 31, 2008 was in most markets, with the largest increase being in the Chilean market. The increase in the Chilean market was primarily due to improved copper prices and increased machine utilization by some of our customers in this region. The increase in other markets was generally due to increased parts sales for original equipment sold in prior periods. Sales in the United States market for 2009 approximated 2008 levels. Total surface mining sales were negatively impacted by approximately $21 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 due to the effect of the U.S. dollar on sales denominated in foreign currencies compared to 2008.
The increase in underground mining original equipment for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to the year ended December 31, 2008 was primarily due to increased longwall sales to customers in the United States and the Czech Republic and increased sales of room and pillar equipment to customers in China.
The increase in underground mining aftermarket parts and service sales for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to the year ended December 31, 2008 was primarily in the United States and Eastern European markets. Many of the longwall replacement projects
64
in the United States were ordered in 2008 as a result of mine conditions making it more economical to extend the lives of existing longwall systems instead of buying new systems. Total underground mining sales were negatively impacted by approximately $26 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 due to the effect of the U.S. dollar on sales denominated in foreign currencies compared to 2008.

Gross margin increase (reduction) (percentage points) | | | 0.1 | | | | (0.4 | ) |
The DBT purchase accounting adjustment related to inventory was fully amortized as of December 31, 2008.
The increase in gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to the year ended December 31, 2008 was primarily due to the mix of original equipment sales and higher aftermarket sales in our surface mining segment and increased sales in our underground mining segment. Excluding the effect of the DBT purchase accounting adjustments, gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2009 was 30.3% of sales compared to 27.6% of sales for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase in gross margin for 2009 compared to 2008 was primarily due to improved efficiencies in our manufacturing operations, higher aftermarket sales, which generally have higher gross margins than our original equipment sales, and raw material cost reductions. Subcontract work was moved back into certain of our manufacturing facilities, which also favorably impacted gross margin. Original equipment sales, which generally have lower gross margins than aftermarket sales, were 42% of our total surface mining sales for 2009 compared with 49% for 2008, and were 60% of our total underground mining sales for 2009 and 2008.

The increase in operating earnings was primarily due to increased gross profit due to the mix of original equipment sales and higher aftermarket sales in our surface mining segment and increased sales in our underground mining segment, partially offset by increased selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in operating earnings for our underground mining segment were reduced by purchase accounting adjustments related to the acquisition of DBT of $3.1 million and $27.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $27.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 compared to $34.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The decrease in interest expense in 2009 was primarily due to lower interest rates on our term loan debt.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $134.6 million, or 30.1% of pre-tax earnings, compared to $117.7 million, or 33.5% of pre-tax earnings, for the year ended December 31, 2008. The rate decrease in 2009 compared to 2008 was primarily due to a favorable earnings mix and the reversal of $4.5 million of valuation allowance reserves in connection with the reorganization of certain international operations.
Other Expense
Other expense for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $6.1 million compared to $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The increase in 2009 was primarily due to $2.7 million of losses that were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings due to the discontinuance of cash flow hedges. The cash flow hedges were concurrently settled and extended because an original forecasted event did not occur within the original specified time period as a result of customer requested delays of two orders in our underground mining segment. These losses were recovered in 2010 when the hedges matured.

Adjusted EBITDA as a percent of sales | | | 19.7% | | | | 20.7% | | | | N/A | |
EBITDA is defined as net earnings before interest income, interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA includes the impact of non-cash stock compensation expense, severance expenses, loss on disposals of fixed assets and the inventory fair value purchase accounting adjustment charged to cost of products sold as set forth below. EBITDA is a measurement not recognized in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP measures of performance. EBITDA is presented because (i) we use EBITDA to measure our liquidity and financial performance, and (ii) we believe EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in evaluating the performance and enterprise value of companies in general, and in evaluating the liquidity of companies with significant debt service obligations and their ability to service their indebtedness.
Adjusted EBITDA is a material term in our current credit agreement, and was also a material term in our previous credit agreement, which we believe is a material agreement, and is used in the calculation of our leverage ratio covenant. Also, our management uses Adjusted EBITDA when preparing our annual operating budget and financial projections. The following table reconciles EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Description of Pre-Acquisition Credit Facilities
Prior to our acquisition of Terex Mining on February 19, 2010, our credit facilities included a secured revolving credit facility of $357.5 million, an unsecured German revolving credit facility of€65.0 million, each of which were scheduled to mature on May 4, 2012, and a term loan facility consisting of $400.0 million plus€75.0 million which was scheduled to mature on May 4, 2014. The entire secured revolving credit facility was eligible to be used for letters of credit.
70
Description of Current Credit Facility
On February 19, 2010, we amended our credit facilities to finance the acquisition of Terex Mining. Our new credit facilities include a secured revolving credit facility of $525.0 million ($35.0 million has a maturity date of May 4, 2012 and $490.0 million has a maturity date of May 4, 2014) and an unsecured German revolving credit facility of€65.0 million which matures on May 4, 2014. Our new credit facilities also include a term loan facility consisting of $1,280.0 million ($390.0 million matures on May 4, 2014 and $890.0 million matures on February 19, 2016), A$124.0 million with a maturity date of February 19, 2016 and€73.1 million with a maturity date of May 4, 2014. The entire new secured revolving credit facility is eligible to be used for letters of credit.
Borrowings under our new secured revolving credit facility that mature on May 4, 2012 and May 4, 2014 bear interest, payable no less frequently than quarterly, at (i) LIBOR or EURIBOR, plus the applicable spread; or (ii) a base rate determined by reference to the United States prime lending rate, the federal funds rate, or one month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus the applicable spread. The unsecured German revolving credit facility bears interest, payable no less frequently than quarterly, at EURIBOR, plus the applicable spread.
Under each new revolving credit facility, we pay a commitment fee based on the unused portion of such facilities, payable quarterly, at rates ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% depending on the total leverage ratio for revolving credit facilities that mature on May 4, 2012, and 0.50% for revolving credit facilities that mature on May 4, 2014, and when applicable, customary letter of credit fees.
Borrowings under our new term loan facility that mature on May 4, 2014 bear interest, payable no less frequently than quarterly, at (i) LIBOR, plus the applicable spread, for United States dollar denominated loans; and (ii) EURIBOR, plus the applicable spread, for euro denominated loans.
Borrowings under our new term loan facility that mature on February 19, 2016 bear interest, payable no less frequently than quarterly, at (i) LIBOR (subject to a 1.50% floor) plus the applicable spread (based on the our total leverage ratio), for United States dollar denominated base rate loans; and (ii) an offered rate of interest based on deposits of Australian dollars, plus (a) the difference between three-month LIBOR and 1.50% (if greater), and (b) between 2.75% and 3.00% (based on our total leverage ratio) for Australian dollar denominated base rate loans.
Our new credit facilities contain operating and financial covenants that, among other things, could limit our ability to obtain additional sources of capital. Our financial covenants require that we maintain, on a trailing four-quarter basis as of the end of each fiscal quarter, a total leverage ratio of not more than 3.50 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0. At December 31, 2010, our total leverage ratio was 1.44 to 1.00 and our interest coverage ratio was 10.12 to 1.00. The total leverage ratio is calculated as the ratio of consolidated indebtedness (which is net of cash) to consolidated operating profit (which excludes, among other things, certain non-cash charges, as discussed more fully in the credit facilities). The total interest coverage ratio is calculated as the ratio of consolidated adjusted EBITDA to consolidated cash interest expense. We were in compliance with all operating covenants at December 31, 2010.
71
Our new credit agreement requires us to prepay outstanding loans with 100% of the net proceeds of the incurrence of certain debt and certain asset sales and 50% (subject to reductions based on our total leverage ratio) of our annual excess cash flow, as defined in our credit facilities.
At December 31, 2010, the amount potentially available for borrowings under our new secured revolving credit facility was $417.5 million, after taking into account $107.5 million of issued letters of credit. The amount potentially available for borrowings under the unsecured German credit facility at December 31, 2010 was $31.5 million (€23.5 million), after taking into account $55.5 million (€41.5 million) of issued letters of credit. At December 31, 2010, we had borrowings of $1.5 billion ($1.3 billion plus€72.6 million plus A$123.1 million) under our new term loan facility. To manage a portion of our exposure to changes in LIBOR-based interest rates, we have entered into interest rate swap agreements that effectively fix the interest payments on $743.7 million ($650.0 million plus€70.0 million) of outstanding borrowings under our new term loan facility at a weighted average interest rate of 2.6%, plus the applicable spread. The remaining $752.0 million of outstanding term loan borrowings at December 31, 2010 were at a weighted average interest rate of 4.8%, including the applicable spread.
Cash Requirements
Our cash balance increased to $473.7 million at December 31, 2010 from $101.1 million at December 31, 2009. The increase was primarily due to cash generated from operations. During 2010, we paid down our term loan by $10.0 million, contributed $8.9 million to our United States pension plans and paid approximately $25 million for costs related to the Terex Mining acquisition and pending merger with Caterpillar Inc.
A significant portion of our cash flow is generated outside of the United States. At December 31, 2010, $281.5 million of our cash and cash equivalents was located outside of the United States. We manage our global cash requirements considering available funds among the subsidiaries through which we conduct our business and the cost effectiveness through which those funds can be accessed. We continue to seek opportunities to access cash balances in excess of local operating requirements to meet global liquidity needs in a cost effective manner. We have and will continue to transfer cash from international subsidiaries to the United States and other international subsidiaries when it is cost effective to do so.
Our customers generally are contractually obligated to make progress payments under purchase contracts for larger machine orders and certain large parts orders. As a result, we do not anticipate significant outside financing requirements to fund production of our original equipment and do not believe that original equipment sales will have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, although the issuance of letters of credit reduces the amount available for borrowings under our revolving credit facilities. If additional borrowings are necessary during 2011, we believe we have sufficient capacity under our existing revolving credit facilities.
Inventory increased to $1.1 billion at December 31, 2010 from $627.3 million at December 31, 2009. The increase was primarily due to acquired Terex Mining inventory. Inventory turns were 2.4 at December 31, 2010. Excluding Terex Mining, inventory turns were 2.8 at December 31, 2010 compared to 2.8 at December 31, 2009. In 2010, we implemented new initiatives to increase consolidated inventory turns.
72
Ordinary course capital expenditures (which, excludes amounts paid to acquire businesses) for 2010 were $71.3 million compared to $54.6 million for 2009. Included in capital expenditures for 2010 and 2009 were $33.1 million and $13.4 million, respectively, related to facility expansions and renovations and implementation of our global SAP enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system. We expect our capital expenditures in 2011 to approximate $100 million. We closely monitor our capital spending in relation to current economic conditions and business levels. We believe cash flows from operating activities and funds available under our revolving credit facilities will be sufficient to fund our expected capital expenditures during 2011.
At December 31, 2010, there were $229.3 million of issued letters of credit outstanding under all of our bank facilities.
At December 31, 2010, our long-term liabilities consisted primarily of warranty accruals, pension accruals and deferred income taxes. In 2011, we expect to contribute approximately $15 million to our pension plans. Upon completion of an analysis of the funded status of our United States pension plans, additional contributions may be made in 2011. At December 31, 2010, our unfunded pension liability was $143.7 million compared to $132.8 million at December 31, 2009. Our unfunded pension liability at December 31, 2010 and 2009 consisted of $14.0 million and $13.8 million, respectively, for our United States plans and $129.7 million and $119.0 million, respectively, for our non-United States plans, most of which are not traditionally funded. The decreased liability for our United States plans reflects the increased market value of the securities held by the plans and contributions we made.
Payments of warranty claims are not subject to a definitive estimate by year. We do not expect to pay any material warranty claims in 2011.
In addition to the obligations noted above, we currently anticipate estimated cash funding requirements for interest and dividends during 2011 of approximately $78 million and $8 million, respectively. We currently anticipate estimated cash funding requirements for income taxes during 2011 of approximately $145 million to $155 million.
During 2011, we anticipate continued positive cash flows from operations and expect our cash balances to increase throughout the year. We believe that cash flows from operations and our existing revolving credit facilities, which includes our new credit facilities, will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements in 2011. We also believe that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to repay any borrowings under our revolving credit facilities, which includes our new credit facilities, as necessary, and all scheduled term loan payments.
Receivables
We recognize revenues on most original equipment orders using the percentage-of-completion method. Accordingly, accounts receivable are generated when revenue is recognized, which can be before the funds are collected or in some cases, before our customer is billed. At December 31, 2010, we had $918.8 million of accounts receivable compared to $741.8 million at December 31, 2009. Receivables at December 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 included $381.8 million and $384.5 million, respectively, of revenues from long-term contracts recognized using percentage of completion accounting that were not
73
billable at these dates. Billed receivables increased in 2010 primarily due to the inclusion of Terex Mining billed receivables of $192.9 million and increased shipments in the fourth quarter of 2010.
Customer requested delays of sold orders, poor conditions in global financial markets or global or regional recessionary economic conditions could cause us difficulty in collecting outstanding accounts receivable.
Liabilities to Customers on Uncompleted Contracts and Warranties
Customers generally make down payments at the time of the order for a new machine as well as progress payments throughout the manufacturing process. These payments are recorded as Liabilities to Customers on Uncompleted Contracts and Warranties in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Current Dividend Policy
We pay a cash dividend on our common stock in the amount of $.025 per share per quarter, subject to future authorization by our Board of Directors. Total cash dividend payments in 2010 were $8.1 million.
Contractual Obligations
Our contractual obligations at December 31, 2010 were as follows:

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. The process of determining significant estimates is fact specific and takes into account factors such as historical experience, current and expected economic conditions, product mix, and in some cases, actuarial techniques. We evaluate these significant factors as facts and circumstances dictate. Historically, actual results have not differed significantly from those determined using estimates.
The following are the accounting policies that most frequently require us to make estimates and judgments and are critical to understanding our financial position, results of operations and cash flows:
Revenue Recognition - Revenue from long-term sales contracts, such as for the manufacture of most of our original equipment, is recognized using the percentage-of-completion method due to the length of time to fully manufacture and assemble our original equipment. We measure revenue recognized based on the ratio of estimated costs incurred to date in relation to total costs to be incurred. The percentage-of-completion method of accounting for these contracts most accurately reflects the status of these uncompleted contracts in our financial statements and most accurately measures the matching of revenues with expenses. Revenue from all other types of sales, primarily sales of our smaller original equipment and of aftermarket parts, net of estimated returns and allowances, is recognized when all of the following circumstances are satisfied: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collectibility is reasonably assured and delivery has occurred or services have been rendered. Criteria for revenue recognition is generally met at the time products are shipped, as the terms are generally FOB shipping point.
The complexity of the cost estimation process and all issues related to assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent with the use of estimated costs in the percentage of completion method of accounting affect the amounts reported in our financial statements. A number of internal and external factors affect our cost of sales estimates, including engineering design changes, estimated future material prices and customer specification changes. If we had used different assumptions in the application of this and other accounting policies, it is likely that materially different amounts would be reported in our financial statements. Bid and proposal costs are expensed as incurred. A 1% change in the gross margin on our original equipment in progress at December 31, 2010 would have the effect of changing our gross profit by approximately $19.4 million.
Warranty - Sales of our products generally carry typical manufacturers’ warranties, the majority of which cover products for one year, based on terms that are generally accepted in the marketplaces that we serve. We record provisions for estimated warranty and other related costs as revenue is recognized based on historical warranty loss experience and
75
periodically adjust these provisions to reflect actual experience. Estimates used to determine the product warranty accruals are significantly impacted by the historical percentage of warranty claims costs to net sales. During 2010, this percentage varied by approximately 0.12 percentage points compared to the average warranty costs to sales percentage for 2009 and 2008. Holding other assumptions constant, if this estimated percentage were to increase or decrease 0.12 percentage points, our warranty expense for 2010 would have increased or decreased by approximately $4.2 million.
Pension Benefits - We have several defined benefit pension plans that are separately funded. Several statistical and judgmental factors which attempt to anticipate future events are used in calculating the expense and liability related to these plans. These factors include assumptions about the discount rate, expected return on plan assets and the rate of future compensation increases, as we determine within certain guidelines. In addition, our actuarial consultants also use subjective factors such as withdrawal and mortality rates to estimate these factors. The actuarial assumptions we use may differ materially from actual results due to changing market and economic conditions, higher or lower withdrawal rates, longer or shorter life spans of participants and changes in actual costs of health care. These differences may result in a significant impact to the amount of pension expenses recorded by us.
In determining net periodic cost for pension benefits for 2010, we used a discount rate of 6.35% and 5.5% for our United States plans and non-United States plans, respectively, and an expected long-term rate of return on plan assets of 8.5% for our United States plans and 6.0% for our non-United States plans that have plan assets. The discount rate for our United States plans in 2010 was increased from 6.20% in 2009 and the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets was the same as in 2009.
In selecting an assumed discount rate, we reviewed various corporate bond yields. The 8.5% expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is based on the average rate of earnings expected on the classes of funds invested or to be invested to provide for the benefits of these plans. This includes considering the trusts’ targeted asset allocation for the year and the expected returns likely to be earned over the next 20 years. The assumptions used for the return of each asset class are conservative when compared to long-term historical returns.
76
The effect that a 1% increase or decrease in the discount rate and expected rate of return on plan assets would have on our pension expense and projected benefit obligation was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | 2010 Benefit Cost (Income) Expense | | | January 1, 2010 Projected Benefit Obligation Increase (Decrease) | |
| | One Percentage- Point Increase | | | One Percentage- Point Decrease | | | One Percentage- Point Increase | | | One Percentage- Point Decrease | |

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - At December 31, 2010, we had $17.0 million of unrecognized tax benefits, $3.4 million of which would impact our effective tax rate if recognized. We estimate that the gross amount of unrecognized income tax benefits will decrease by approximately $3.9 million in the next 12 months due to the close of an open tax year; however, we cannot estimate the change in the reserve due to tax positions expected to be taken during 2011.
Impairment of Tangible and Intangible Assets
Assets subject to amortization. In accordance with accounting guidance regarding the accounting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, we review long-lived assets and all amortizable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is determined by comparing the forecasted undiscounted net cash flows of the operation to which the assets relate to their carrying amount. The operations are generally distinguished by the business segment and geographic region in which they operate. If the operation is determined to be unable to recover the carrying amount of its assets, then intangible assets are written down first, followed by the other long-lived assets of the operation, to fair value. Fair value is based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending upon the nature of the assets.
Goodwill - Assets not subject to amortization.Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are not amortized but are reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Our annual goodwill impairment review date is December 31. We performed our annual goodwill impairment review as of December 31, 2010, 2009 and

2008 and noted no impairment of goodwill. In making this assessment, we rely on a number of factors including operating results, business plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows, and transactions and marketplace data. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and our judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment. Changes in economic and operating conditions could result in goodwill impairment in future periods. We also compared the aggregate fair value of our reporting units to our market capitalization.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off balance sheet financing arrangements that we believe have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial position.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our market risk is impacted by changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The following discussion excludes the impact of our acquisition of Terex Mining.
Interest Rates - Our interest rate exposure relates primarily to floating rate debt obligations in the United States. We manage borrowings under our credit agreement through the selection of LIBOR based borrowings, EURIBOR based borrowings, or prime-rate based borrowings. To manage a portion of our exposure to changes in LIBOR-based interest rates, we have entered into interest rate swap agreements that effectively fix the interest payments on $743.7 million of our outstanding borrowings under our new term loan facility at a weighted average interest rate of 2.6%, plus the applicable spread. At December 31, 2010, a sensitivity analysis was performed for our floating rate debt obligations. Based on this sensitivity analysis, we have determined that a 10% change in the weighted average interest rate at December 31, 2010 would not have a material effect on our interest expense on an annual basis.
Foreign Currency - We sell most of our surface mining original equipment, including those sold directly to foreign customers, in United States dollars and we sell most of our underground mining original equipment in either United States dollars or euros. We sell most of our surface mining aftermarket parts in United States dollars, with limited aftermarket parts sales denominated in the local currencies of various foreign markets. We sell most of our underground mining aftermarket parts in either United States dollars or euros, also with limited aftermarket parts sales denominated in the local currencies of various foreign markets. Both surface mining and underground mining aftermarket services are paid primarily in local currency, with a natural partial currency hedge through payment for local labor in local currency. The value, in United States dollars, of our investments in our foreign subsidiaries and of dividends paid to us by those subsidiaries will be affected by changes in exchange rates. We enter into currency hedges to help mitigate currency exchange risks.
Currency controls, devaluations, trade restrictions and other disruptions in the currency convertibility and in the market for currency exchange could limit our ability to timely convert sales earned abroad into United States dollars, which could adversely affect our ability to service our United States dollar indebtedness, fund our United States dollar costs and finance capital expenditures and pay dividends on our common stock.
Based on our derivative instruments outstanding at December 31, 2010, a 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flow.
