3. Finance Assets

Finance Receivables

Finance receivables are comprised of sales-type lease receivables and unsecured revolving loan receivables. Sales-type leases are generally due in monthly, quarterly or semi-annual installments over periods ranging from three to five years. Loan receivables arise primarily from financing services offered to our customers for postage and related supplies. Loan receivables are generally due each month; however, customers may rollover outstanding balances.

Finance receivables at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 consisted of the following:

Allowance for Credit Losses and Aging of Receivables

We estimate our finance receivable risks and provide allowances for credit losses accordingly. We establish credit approval limits based on the credit quality of the customer and the type of equipment financed. We believe that our concentration of credit risk is limited because of our large number of customers, small account balances for most of our customers, and customer geographic and industry diversification.

Our policy is to discontinue revenue recognition for lease receivables that are more than 120 days past due and for unsecured loan receivables that are more than 90 days past due. We resume revenue recognition when customer payments reduce the account balance aging to 60 days or less past due. We evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience, the nature and volume of our portfolios, adverse situations that may affect a customer's ability to pay and prevailing economic conditions, and make adjustments to the reserves as necessary. This evaluation is inherently subjective and actual results may differ significantly from estimated reserves.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited; table amounts in thousands of dollars, unless otherwise noted)

We maintain a program for U.S. borrowers in our North America loan portfolio who are experiencing financial difficulties, but are able to make reduced payments over an extended period of time. Upon acceptance into the program, the borrower’s credit line is closed, interest accrual is suspended, the borrower’s minimum required payment is reduced and the account is re-aged and classified as current. There is generally no forgiveness of debt or reduction of balances owed. The loans in the program are considered to be troubled debt restructurings because of the concessions granted to the borrower. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, loans in this program had a balance of $5 million and $7 million, respectively.

The allowance for credit losses for these modified loans is determined by the difference between cash flows expected to be received from the borrower discounted at the original effective rate and the carrying value of the loan. The allowance for credit losses related to such loans was $1 million at June 30, 2012 and $2 million at December 31, 2011 and is included in the allowance for credit losses of North America loans in the table below. Management believes that the allowance for credit losses is adequate for these loans and all other loans in the portfolio. Write-offs of loans in the program for the past twelve months were less than $1 million.

Activity in the allowance for credit losses for finance receivables for the six months ended June 30,June 30, 2012 was as follows:

	Sales-type Lease Receivables						Loan Receivables
	North America			International			North America			International			Total
Balance at January 1, 2012	$	28,661		$	12,039		$	20,272		$	2,458		$	63,430

Credit Quality

The extension of credit and management of credit lines to new and existing customers uses a combination of an automated credit score, where available, and a detailed manual review of the customer’s financial condition and, when applicable, the customer’s payment history. Once credit is granted, the payment performance of the customer is managed through automated collections processes and is supplemented with direct follow up should an account become delinquent. We have robust automated collections and extensive portfolio management processes. The portfolio management processes ensure that our global strategy is executed, collection resources are allocated appropriately and enhanced tools and processes are implemented as needed.

We use a third party to score the majority of the North American portfolio on a quarterly basis using a commercial credit score. We do not use a third party to score our International portfolios because the cost to do so is prohibitive, it is a localized process and there is no single credit score model that covers all countries.

The table below shows the North American portfolio at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 by relative risk class (low, medium, high) based on the relative scores of the accounts within each class. The relative scores are determined based on a number of factors, including the company type, ownership structure, payment history and financial information. A fourth class is shown for accounts that are not scored. Absence of a score is not indicative of the credit quality of the account. The degree of risk, as defined by the third party, refers to the relative risk that an account in the next 12 month period may become delinquent.

• Low risk accounts are companies with very good credit scores and are considered to approximate the top 30% of all commercial borrowers.

• Medium risk accounts are companies with average to good credit scores and are considered to approximate the middle 40% of all commercial borrowers.

• High risk accounts are companies with poor credit scores, are delinquent or are at risk of becoming delinquent and are considered to approximate the bottom 30% of all commercial borrowers.

The aging schedule included above, showing approximately 1.7% of the portfolio as greater than 90 days past due, and the roll-forward schedule of the allowance for credit losses, showing the actual losses for the six months ended June 30,2012 are more representative of the potential loss performance of our portfolio than relative risk based on scores, as defined by the third party.

4. Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Intangible assets

Intangible assets at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 consisted of the following:

Amortization expense for intangible assets was $11 million and $14 million for the three months ended June 30,2012 and 2011, respectively, and $23 million and $29 million for the six months ended June 30,2012 and 2011, respectively. The future amortization expense for intangible assets as of June 30, 2012 was as follows:

Year ended December 31, 2016	23,997
Thereafter	32,152
Total	$	188,657

Actual amortization expense may differ from the amounts above due to, among other things, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, impairments, future acquisitions and accelerated amortization.

Goodwill

5. Debt

On June 30, 2012, we redeemed our $400 million, 4.625% notes (the 2012 Notes) that were due in October 2012. As a result of the early redemption of the 2012 Notes, we recorded a net charge of $2 million in other expense, net as a loss on the extinguishment of debt. The charge is comprised of a make-whole payment and a gain recognized upon the termination of interest rate swap contracts related to the 2012 Notes.

In April 2012, we entered into forward starting swap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $150 million to hedge interest rate risk associated with the planned issuance of long-term debt before the end of the second quarter. We chose not to issue debt within the planned time period, and on June 29, 2012, the swap agreements expired and we recorded a loss of $6 million in other expense, net during the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

In March 2012, we redeemed, at par plus accrued interest, a $150 million term loan that was scheduled to mature in the fourth quarter of 2012.

During the quarter, commercial paper borrowings averaged $142 million at a weighted-average interest rate of 0.38% and the maximum amount outstanding at any time was $343 million. At June 30, 2012, there was no outstanding commercial paper borrowings.

6. Noncontrolling Interests (Preferred Stockholders’ Equity in Subsidiaries)

Pitney Bowes International Holdings, Inc. (PBIH), a subsidiary, has 300,000 shares, or $300 million, of outstanding perpetual voting preferred stock (the Preferred Stock) held by certain institutional investors. The holders of the Preferred Stock are entitled as a group to 25% of the combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of PBIH. All outstanding common stock of PBIH, representing the remaining 75% of the combined voting power of all classes of capital stock, is owned directly or indirectly by the company. The Preferred Stock is entitled to cumulative dividends at a rate of 6.125% through 2016 after which it becomes callable and, if it remains outstanding, will yield a dividend that increases by 50% every six months thereafter. No dividends were in arrears at June 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011. There was no change in the carrying value of noncontrolling interests during the period ended June 30, 2012 or the year ended December 31, 2011.

7. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30,2012 and 2011 was 33.4% and 33.3%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30,2012 and 2011 was 21.3% and 32.2%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30,2012 includes a $17 million tax benefit from the sale of non-U.S. leveraged lease assets and tax benefits of $22 million arising from the conclusion of tax examinations. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 includes a $9 million tax benefit arising from a favorable conclusion of a foreign tax examination.

As is the case with other large corporations, our tax returns are examined each year by tax authorities in the United States, other countries and local jurisdictions in which we have operations. Except for issues arising out of certain partnership investments, the IRS examination of tax years 2001-2004 is closed to audit and the examination of years 2005-2008 is expected to be closed to audit by the end of 2012. Other significant tax filings subject to examination include various post-2000 U.S. state and local, post 2007 Canadian and German, and post-2008 French and U.K. tax filings. We have other less significant tax filings currently under examination or subject to examination. 

We regularly assess the likelihood of tax adjustments in each of the tax jurisdictions in which we have operations and account for the related financial statement implications.  We believe we have established tax reserves that are appropriate given the possibility of tax adjustments.  However, determining the appropriate level of tax reserves requires judgment regarding the uncertain application of tax law and the possibility of tax adjustments. Future changes in tax reserve requirements could have a material impact, positive or negative, on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

9. Fair Value Measurements and Derivative Instruments

We measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure. An entity is required to classify certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on the following fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value:

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

Level 2 – Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, may be derived from internally developed methodologies based on management’s best estimate of fair value and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.

The following tables show, by level within the fair value hierarchy, our financial assets and liabilities that are accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect their placement within the fair value hierarchy.

Investment Securities

The valuation of investment securities is based on the market approach using inputs that are observable, or can be corroborated by observable data, in an active marketplace. The following information relates to our classification into the fair value hierarchy:

• Money Market Funds / Commercial Paper: Money market funds typically invest in government securities, certificates of deposit, commercial paper and other highly liquid and low-risk securities. Money market funds are principally used for overnight deposits and are classified as Level 1 when unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are available and as Level 2 when they are not actively traded on an exchange. Direct investments in commercial paper are not listed on an exchange in an active market and are classified as Level 2.

• Equity Securities: Equity securities are comprised of mutual funds investing in U.S. and foreign common stock. These mutual funds are classified as Level 2 as they are not separately listed on an exchange.

• Commingled Fixed Income Securities: Mutual funds that invest in a variety of fixed income securities including securities of the U.S. government and its agencies, corporate debt, mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities. The value of the funds is based on the market value of the underlying investments owned by each fund, minus its liabilities, divided by the number of shares outstanding, as reported by the fund manager. These commingled funds are not listed on an exchange in an active market and are classified as Level 2.

• Debt Securities – U.S. and Foreign Governments, Agencies and Municipalities: Debt securities are classified as Level 1 where active, high volume trades for identical securities exist. Valuation adjustments are not applied to these securities. Debt securities valued using quoted market prices for similar securities or benchmarking model derived prices to quoted market prices and trade data for identical or comparable securities are classified as Level 2.

• Debt Securities – Corporate: Corporate debt securities are valued using recently executed transactions, market price quotations where observable, or bond spreads. The spread data used are for the same maturity as the security. These securities are classified as Level 2.

• Mortgage-Backed Securities (MBS) / Asset-Backed Securities (ABS): These securities are valued based on external pricing indices. When external index pricing is not observable, MBS and ABS are valued based on external price/spread data. These securities are classified as Level 2.

The carrying value of our investment securities at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was $625 million and $861 million, respectively.

Investment securities include investments held by The Pitney Bowes Bank, a wholly-owned subsidiary and a Utah-chartered

Industrial Loan Company. The bank’s investments at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $343 million and $282 million, respectively. These investments are reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and other assets depending on the type of investment and maturity.

We have not experienced any write-offs in our investment portfolio. The majority of our MBS are either guaranteed or supported by the U.S. government. Market events have not caused our money market funds to experience declines in their net asset value below $1.00 per share or to incur imposed limits on redemptions. We have no investments in inactive markets that would warrant a possible change in our pricing methods or classification within the fair value hierarchy. Further, we have no investments in auction rate securities.

Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and foreign currency fluctuations. We limit these risks by following established risk management policies and procedures, including the use of derivatives. We use derivatives to manage the related cost of debt and to limit the effects of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on financial results. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. We record our derivative instruments at fair value, and the accounting for changes in the fair value of the derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, the resulting designation, and the effectiveness of the instrument in offsetting the risk exposure it is designed to hedge.

As required by the fair value measurements guidance, we have incorporated counterparty credit risk and our credit risk into the fair value measurement of our derivative assets and liabilities, respectively. We derive credit risk from observable data related to credit default swaps. We have not seen a material change in the creditworthiness of those banks acting as derivative counterparties.

The valuation of our interest rate swaps is based on the income approach using a model with inputs that are observable or that can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data. The valuation of our foreign exchange derivatives is based on the market approach using observable market inputs, such as forward rates.

Interest Rate Swaps

Derivatives designated as fair value hedges include interest rate swaps related to fixed rate debt. Changes in the fair value of both the derivative and item being hedged are recognized in earnings. The following represents the results of fair value hedging relationships for the three and six months ended June 30,2012 and 2011:

		Three Months Ended June 30,
		Derivative Gain Recognized in Earnings				Hedged Item Expense Recognized in Earnings
Derivative Instrument	Location of Gain (Loss)	2012		2011		2012			2011
Interest rate swaps	Interest expense	$	3,446	$	3,133	$	(10,059	)	$	(8,281	)
		Six Months Ended June 30,

Interest rate swaps	Interest expense	$	6,773	$	4,866	$	(20,168	)	$	(12,906	)

Foreign Exchange Contracts

We enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate the currency risk associated with the anticipated purchase of inventory between affiliates and from third parties. These contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the gain or loss on cash flow hedges is included in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) in the period that the change in fair value occurs and is reclassified to earnings in the period that the hedged item is recorded in earnings. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had outstanding contracts associated with these anticipated transactions with a notional amount of $21 million and $19 million, respectively. These contracts had a net asset value of approximately $1 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

The amounts included in AOCI at June 30, 2012 will be recognized in earnings within the next 12 months. No amount of ineffectiveness was recorded in earnings for these designated cash flow hedges.

The following represents the results of cash flow hedging relationships for the three and six months ended June 30,2012 and 2011:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	Derivative Gain (Loss) Recognized in AOCI (Effective Portion)					Location of Gain (Loss) (Effective Portion)	Gain (Loss) Reclassified from AOCI to Earnings (Effective Portion)

						Cost of sales	(73		)	(554		)
							$	701		$	(685	)

We also enter into foreign exchange contracts to minimize the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on short-term intercompany loans and related interest that are denominated in a foreign currency. The revaluation of the intercompany loans and interest and the mark-to-market adjustment on the derivatives are both recorded in earnings. At June 30, 2012, outstanding foreign exchange contracts to buy or sell various currencies had a net asset value of less than $1 million. These contracts mature in 2012. At December 31, 2011, outstanding foreign exchange contracts to buy or sell various currencies had a net asset value of $2 million.

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features

Certain derivative instruments contain credit-risk-related contingent features that would require us to post collateral based on a combination of our long-term senior unsecured debt ratings and the net fair value of our derivatives. At June 30, 2012, we were not required to post any collateral. The maximum amount of collateral that we would have been required to post at June 30, 2012, had the credit-risk-related contingent features been triggered, was $2 million.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, accounts receivable, loan receivables, derivative instruments, account payables and debt. The carrying value for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, loans receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.

The fair value of our debt is estimated based on recently executed transactions and market price quotations.  We classify our debt as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value and estimated fair value of our debt at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 was as follows:

	June 30, 2012		December 31, 2011
Carrying value	$	3,681,473	$	4,233,909
Fair value	$	3,783,459	$	4,364,176

10. Restructuring Charges and Asset Impairments

2009 Program

In 2009, we implemented a series of strategic transformation initiatives designed to transform and enhance the way we operate as a global company (the 2009 Program). The initiatives were designed to enhance our responsiveness to changing market conditions and create improved processes and systems to further enable us to invest in future growth in areas such as our global customer interactions and product development processes. This program is substantially completed and we do not anticipate any further significant charges under this program. Most of the costs were cash-related charges. The majority of the remaining restructuring payments are expected to be paid through 2014; however, due to certain international labor laws and long-term lease agreements, some payments will extend beyond 2014. We expect that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund these payments.

Activity in restructuring reserves for the 2009 Program for the six months ended June 30,2012 was as follows:

	Severance and benefits costs			Other exit costs			Total
Balance at January 1, 2012	$	96,036		$	11,358		$	107,394
Expenses, net	3,072			(1,462		)	1,610
Cash payments	(42,958		)	(3,354		)	(46,312		)
Balance at June 30, 2012	$	56,150		$	6,542		$	62,692

2007 Program

In 2007, we announced a program to lower our cost structure, accelerate efforts to improve operational efficiencies, and transition our product line (the 2007 Program). The program included charges primarily associated with older equipment that we had stopped selling upon transition to the new generation of fully digital, networked, and remotely-downloadable equipment. We are not recording additional restructuring charges under the 2007 Program; however, due to international labor laws and long-term lease agreements, we are still making cash payments under this program. We expect that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to fund these payments.

Activity in the restructuring reserves for the 2007 Program for the six months ended June 30,2012 was as follows:

	Severance and benefits costs			Other exit costs			Total
Balance at January 1, 2012	$	9,000		$	2,717		$	11,717
Reserve adjustments	(464		)	(72		)	(536		)
Cash payments	(1,055		)	(508		)	(1,563		)
Balance at June 30, 2012	$	7,481		$	2,137		$	9,618

11. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, we are routinely defendants in, or party to a number of pending and threatened legal actions. These may involve litigation by or against us relating to, among other things, contractual rights under vendor, insurance or other contracts; intellectual property or patent rights; equipment, service, payment or other disputes with customers; or disputes with employees. Some of these actions may be brought as a purported class action on behalf of a purported class of employees, customers or others.

In October 2009, the company and certain of its current and former officers were named as defendants in NECA-IBEW Health & Welfare Fund v. Pitney Bowes Inc. et al., a class action lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut.  The complaint asserts claims under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of those who purchased the common stock of the company during the period between July 30, 2007 and October 29, 2007 alleging that the company, in essence, missed two financial projections.  Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in September 2010. After briefing on the motion to dismiss was completed, the plaintiffs filed a new amended complaint on February 17, 2012. We have moved to dismiss this new amended complaint. Based upon our current understanding of the facts and applicable laws, we do not believe there is a reasonable possibility that any loss has been incurred. We expect to prevail in this legal action; however, as litigation is inherently unpredictable, there can be no assurance in this regard. If the plaintiffs do prevail, the results may have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

w12. Segment Information

We conduct our business activities in seven reporting segments within two business groups, Small & Medium Business Solutions and Enterprise Business Solutions. The principal products and services of each of our reporting segments are as follows:

Segment earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), a non-GAAP measure, is determined by deducting from segment revenue the related costs and expenses attributable to the segment. Segment EBIT excludes interest, taxes, general corporate expenses not allocated to a particular business segment, restructuring charges, asset impairments and goodwill charges which are recognized on a consolidated basis. Management uses segment EBIT to measure profitability and performance at the segment level. Segment EBIT may not be indicative of our overall consolidated performance and therefore, should be read in conjunction with our consolidated results of operations.

Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis ofFinancial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) contains statements that are forward-looking. We want to caution readers that any forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in this Form 10-Q may change based on various factors. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ materially. Words such as “estimate”, “target”, “project”, “plan”, “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, and similar expressions may identify such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Factors which could cause future financial performance to differ materially from the expectations as expressed in any forward-looking statement made by or on our behalf include, without limitation:

• declining physical mail volumes

• mailers’ utilization of alternative means of communication or competitors’ products

• timely development and acceptance of new products and services

• successful entry into new markets

• success in gaining product approval in new markets where regulatory approval is required

• changes in postal or banking regulations

• interrupted use of key information systems

• third-party suppliers’ ability to provide product components, assemblies or inventories

• our success at managing the relationships with our outsource providers, including the costs of outsourcing functions and operations not central to our business

• changes in privacy laws

• intellectual property infringement claims

• regulatory approvals and satisfaction of other conditions to consummate and integrate any acquisitions

• negative developments in economic conditions, including adverse impacts on customer demand

• our success at managing customer credit risk

• significant changes in pension, health care and retiree medical costs

• changes in interest rates, foreign currency fluctuations or credit ratings

• income tax adjustments or other regulatory levies for prior audit years and changes in tax laws or regulations

• impact on mail volume resulting from concerns over the use of the mail for transmitting harmful biological agents

• changes in international or national political conditions, including any terrorist attacks

• acts of nature

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report and our Annual Report to Stockholders on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (2011 Annual Report). All table amounts are presented in millions of dollars, unless otherwise stated. Table amounts may not sum to the total due to rounding.

Overview

For the second quarter of 2012, revenue decreased 5% to $1,246 million compared to $1,314 million in the prior year quarter driven by an 8% decline in equipment sales as some customers continue to prolong finalizing investment decisions, a 10% decline in financing revenue due to lower equipment sales in prior periods, a 7% decline in rentals revenue and 10% decline in supplies revenue due to a decrease in mail volumes and our installed meter base. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact of 2% on revenue in the quarter.

Net income from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders was $100 million, or $0.50 per diluted share for the quarter compared to $102 million or $0.50 per diluted share for the prior year quarter.

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we generated $370 million of cash flow from operations and received $106 million from the sale of leveraged lease assets. We used cash to redeem $550 million of long-term debt, pay dividends of $159 million to our stockholders and fund capital investments of $89 million.

For the six months ended June 30,2012, revenue decreased 5% to $2,501 million compared to $2,638 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Net income from continuing operations attributable to common stockholders was $239 million, or $1.19 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $190 million, or $0.93 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30,2011.

Outlook

The worldwide economy and business environment, including the economic situation in Europe, continue to cause many of our customers to remain cautious about spending; however, we continue to make progress in delivering new customer communications solutions that meet the needs of our broad range of customers. Small and Medium Business Solutions (SMB) revenues are expected to continue to be challenged by the decline in physical mail volumes as alternative means of communications evolve and gain further acceptance. We anticipate that the rate of decline in mailing equipment sales will lessen, due in part to global sales of our Connect+ communications systems. A slowing of the rate of decline for overall SMB revenue will lag that of equipment sales because of the recurring revenue streams that follow after each equipment sale. We anticipate revenue growth in certain of our Enterprise Business Solutions segments from demand for multi-year software licensing agreements, continued expansion in Mail Services operations and market acceptance for our new solutions that help customers grow their business by more effectively managing their physical and digital communications with their customers.

We will continue to focus on streamlining our business operations and creating more flexibility in our cost structure. Our growth strategies will focus on leveraging our expertise in physical communications with our expanding capabilities in digital and hybrid communications. We will continue to develop and invest in products, software, services and solutions that help customers grow their business by more effectively communicating with their customers across physical, digital and hybrid channels.

We expect our mix of revenue to continue to change, with a greater percentage of revenue coming from enterprise-related products and solutions. We also expect to continue to roll out digitally-based products and services but do not expect them to have a significant impact on our revenues for 2012.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Equipment sales

Equipment sales revenue decreased8% in both the quarter and year-to-date periods to $224 million and $444 million, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011 as customers continue to postpone purchases of new equipment. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact on revenue of 3% and 2% on the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Cost of equipment sales as a percentage of revenue increased to 47.6% in the quarter compared to 43.0% in the prior year quarter due to a higher mix of lower margin product sales together with pricing pressure on competitive placements. Cost of equipment sales as a percentage of revenue for the year-to-date period was 45.8% compared to 45.2% in the prior year period.

Supplies

Supplies revenue decreased10% to $71 million and 9% to $147 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011 primarily due to reduced mail volumes, fewer installed meters worldwide and lower ink and toner sales. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact on revenue of 3% and 2% on the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Cost of supplies as a percentage of revenue improved to 29.6% in the quarter compared with 32.5% in the prior year quarter and to 30.5% in the year-to-date period compared to 32.1% in the comparable prior year period primarily due to a favorable mix of higher margin core supplies sales and price increases.

Software

Software revenue decreased1% to $105 million in the quarter and increased 2% to $209 million in the year-to-date period compared with the same periods in 2011. Foreign currency had an unfavorable impact on revenue of 3% in the quarter and 2% in the year-to-date period. The underlying increase in revenue in the quarter and year-to-date periods was primarily due to growth in licensing revenue in North America and Latin America, which was partially offset by a decline in Europe. Cost of software as a percentage of revenue improved slightly in the quarter to 23.3% compared with 23.6% in the prior year quarter. On a year-to-date basis, cost of software as a percentage of revenue improved to 21.8% compared with 24.4% in the prior year-to-date period due to higher revenue and lower intangible asset amortization expense.

Rentals

Rentals revenue decreased7% to $145 million and 9% to $286 million in the quarter and year-to-date period, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011 due to lower mail volumes and fewer meters in service worldwide. The year-to-date decrease also includes a one-time adjustment to deferred revenue which reduced rental revenue in the mailing businesses by 2%. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact of 2% and 1% on the quarter and year-to-date revenue, respectively. Cost of rentals as a percentage of revenue improved in the quarter to 21.9% compared to 23.1% in the prior year quarter and to 21.7% for the year-to-date period compared with 23.0% in the prior year-to-date period due to lower depreciation expense.

Financing

Financing revenue decreased10% in both the quarter and year-to-date periods to $123 million and $250 million, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011 due to lower equipment sales in prior periods. Financing interest expense as a percentage of revenue in the quarter was 16.8% compared to 16.3% in the prior year quarter and 16.7% for the year-to-date period compared to 16.4% in the prior year-to-date period. In computing our financing interest expense, which represents our cost of borrowing associated with the generation of financing revenue, we assume a 10:1 leveraging ratio of debt to equity and apply our overall effective interest rate to the average outstanding finance receivables.

Support Services

Support services revenue decreased3% in both the quarter and year-to-date periods to $171 million and $345 million, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011. The overall decrease was driven primarily by the unfavorable impacts of foreign currency translation, which reduced revenue by 3% and 2% in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Cost of support services as a percentage of revenue was 65.5% in the quarter compared with 65.3% in the prior year quarter. Cost of support services as a percentage of revenue in the year-to-date period increased to 65.9% compared to 64.9% in the prior year-to-date period primarily due to pricing pressure on new placements and renewal contracts.

Business Services

Business services revenue decreased3% to $407 million and 2% to $821 million in the quarter and year-to-date period, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011. The decrease is primarily due to account contractions and terminations in prior periods and pricing pressures on new business and contract renewals in our Management Services business. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact of 1% on both the quarter and year-to-date revenue. Cost of business services as a percentage of revenue in the quarter and year-to-date periods was 77.1% compared with 77.8% in the prior year quarter and 78.3% in the prior year year-to-date period. The improvement was primarily due to an increase in higher margin standard mail volumes in our Presort business and improved margins in our International Mail Services business.

21

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A)

SG&A expense decreased10% to $392 million in the quarter and 7% to $803 million in the year-to-date period compared to the same periods in the prior year. These decreases are primarily due to a 5% decrease in employee-related costs in the quarter and year-to-date periods due to prior restructuring actions and productivity initiatives and a 2% decrease in depreciation and amortization expense in the quarter and year-to-date periods as a result of lower capital expenditures in prior periods.

Restructuring charges and asset impairments

Restructuring charges and asset impairments were $1 million, net for the three and six months ended June 30,2012 compared to $5 million and $31 million for the three and six months ended June 30,2011, respectively. By the end of 2011, our major restructuring programs were substantially completed and we do not expect significant charges in 2012. See Note 10 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other expense, net

Other expense, net for the quarter and year-to-date periods of 2012 is comprised of the following:

	(Income) / Expense
	Quarter			Year-to-date
Insurance proceeds	$	(4	)	$	(11	)
Loss on forward starting swap agreement	6			6
Make-whole payment on early termination of debt	4			4
Gain on termination of interest rate swap contracts	(2		)	(2		)
Pretax loss on sale of certain leverage lease assets	—			4
Other expense, net	$	4		$	1

For the quarter and six months ended June 30,2012, we received insurance proceeds of $4 million and $11 million, respectively, in connection with the 2011 fire at our Dallas presort facility.

In April 2012, we entered into forward starting swap agreements with an aggregate notional value of $150 million to hedge interest rate risk associated with a forecasted issuance of long-term debt. Our anticipated debt issuance did not occur and these swap agreements expired June 29, 2012, resulting in a loss of $6 million.

On June 30, 2012, we redeemed our $400 million, 4.625% notes (the 2012 Notes) that were due in October 2012. As a result of the early redemption of the 2012 Notes, we incurred a loss of $4 million for a make-whole payment offset by a gain of $2 million associated with the termination of interest rate swap contracts related to the 2012 Notes.

In the first quarter of 2012, we completed a sale of certain non-U.S. leveraged lease assets to the lessee for cash and incurred a pretax loss of $4 million. We also recognized a tax benefit of $17 million associated with this sale, which is included in the provision for income taxes.

Business segment results

We conduct our business activities in seven reporting segments within two business groups, Small & Medium Business Solutions and Enterprise Business Solutions. The following tables show revenue and EBIT by business segment for the three and six months ended June 30,2012 and 2011. Segment EBIT, a non-GAAP measure, is determined by deducting from segment revenue the related costs and expenses attributable to the segment. Segment EBIT excludes interest, taxes, general corporate expenses not allocated to a particular business segment, restructuring charges, asset impairments and goodwill charges, which are recognized on a consolidated basis. Management uses segment EBIT to measure profitability and performance at the segment level. Segment EBIT may not be indicative of our overall consolidated performance and therefore, should be read in conjunction with our consolidated results of operations. Refer to Note 12 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation of segment EBIT to income from continuing operations before income taxes.

Small & Medium Business Solutions

Small & Medium Business Solutions revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods decreased8% to $619 million and 7% to $1,248 million, respectively, compared the same periods in 2011.  EBIT decreased6% to $190 million and 4% to $388 million the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2011. Within the Small & Medium Business Solutions group:

North America Mailing

Revenue for the North America Mailing segment decreased8% to $453 million and 9% to $915 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011. Equipment sales declined 8% in the quarter and year-to-date periods due to the continued decline in mail volumes and continued concerns about economic conditions which is impacting customers purchasing decisions. Financing revenue declined 9% in the quarter and 10% in the year-to-date periods due to declining equipment sales in prior periods. Rentals revenue declined 7% and 9% in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to fewer meters in service. Supplies revenue declined 13% in both the quarter and year-to-date periods due to lower mail volumes, a declining installed meter base and lower ink and toner sales.

EBIT decreased5% to $168 million and 3% to $346 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011 primarily due to the decline in revenue; however, EBIT margins improved as a result of ongoing productivity improvements, the decline in low-margin ink and toner sales and lower credit losses.

23

International Mailing

Revenue for the International Mailing segment decreased6% to $165 million and 4% to $333 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011; however, foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact on revenue of 7% and 5% in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Excluding the effects of foreign currency, the underlying revenue increase in the quarter and year-to-date periods was driven by higher equipment and supplies sales. Partially offsetting the underlying year-to-date revenue increase was lower rentals revenue, primarily due to a change in mix from rentals to equipment sales in France.

EBIT decreased19% to $22 million and 16% to $42 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011 primarily due to the mix of lower margin product sales and foreign currency translation which had an unfavorable impact on EBIT of 7% and 5% in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively.

Enterprise Business Solutions

Enterprise Business Solutions revenue for the quarter and year-to-date periods decreased3% to $627 million and $1,253 million, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2011. EBIT increased11% to $61 million in the quarter and 21% to $125 million for the year-to-date period compared with the same periods in 2011; however, these results were impacted by the fire in 2011 that destroyed a presort facility located in Dallas, and are discussed in the Mail Services section below. Within the Enterprise Business Solutions group:

Production Mail

Revenue for the Production Mail segment decreased8% to $123 million and 10% to $238 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011, primarily due to a decline in equipment sales as customers continue to prolong finalizing capital investment decisions and opting to retain their existing equipment longer than usual, particularly in the United States. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact on revenue of 3% and 2% in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively.

EBIT decreased39% to $6 million and 49% to $8 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011 due to the decline in revenue, the sale of lower margin products and continued investment in Volly.

Software

Revenue for the Software segment for the quarter was flat compared to last year at $100 million. We continue to see growth in licensing revenue in North America and Latin America; however, revenue growth in North America and Latin America in the second quarter was offset by a decline in revenue in Europe. For the year-to-date period, revenue increased2% to $200 million compared to last year as year-to-date growth in licensing revenue in North America and Latin America more than offset the decline in Europe. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact on revenue of 3% and 2% in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively.

EBIT decreased11% to $8 million in the quarter as lower revenue in our international operations and channel investments to expand our product line globally more than offset the benefit of lower intangible asset amortization expense. For the year-to-date period, EBIT increased27% to $19 million compared with the same period in 2011 due to higher revenue in North America and Latin America and lower intangible asset amortization expense partially offset by the EBIT decline in our international operations.

Management Services

Revenue for the Management Services segment decreased5% in both the quarter and year-to-date periods to $228 million and $458 million, respectively and EBIT decreased37% in both the quarter and year-to-date periods to $13 million and $26 million, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011. The decline in revenue and EBIT was primarily due to account contractions and terminations in prior periods and pricing pressure on new business and contract renewals. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact on revenue of 2% and 1% in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively.

Mail Services

Revenue for the Mail Services segment increased5% to $141 million and 4% to $291 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011. However, revenue in the prior quarter and year-to-date periods was adversely impacted by $9 million and $17 million, respectively, due to the fire that destroyed our Dallas presort facility. Excluding the impact of the fire, revenue decreased 2% in both the quarter and year-to-date periods primarily due to lower volumes in our International Mail Services business partially offset by higher standard mail volumes in our Presort business.

EBIT increased176% to $27 million and 194% to $59 million in the quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011. However, EBIT for the prior year quarter and year-to-date periods was reduced $9 million and $16 million, respectively, by the effects of the fire. Additionally, EBIT for the current year quarter and year-to-date periods includes a benefit of $4 million and $11 million, respectively, from fire-related insurance recoveries. Excluding these items, EBIT for the quarter and year-to-date periods increased 19% and 30%, respectively, from higher standard mail volumes in our Presort business and improved margins in our International Mail Services business.

24

Marketing Services

Revenue for the Marketing Services segment was basically flat for the quarter and year-to-date periods at $36 million and $66 million, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2011. EBIT was up slightly for the quarter and year-to-date periods at $8 million and $12 million, respectively, compared with the same periods in 2011 due to reduced print production costs and ongoing productivity initiatives.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We believe that cash flow from operations, existing cash and investments, as well as borrowing capacity under our commercial paper program should be sufficient to support our business operations, interest and dividend payments, share repurchases, capital expenditures, and to cover customer deposits. We have the ability to supplement this short-term liquidity, if necessary, and fund the long-term needs of our business through broad access to capital markets, a credit line facility, and our effective shelf registration statement. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments on hand were $538 million and $869 million, respectively.

Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries are generally used to support the liquidity needs of these subsidiaries. Cash and cash equivalents held by our foreign subsidiaries at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $160 million and $538 million, respectively. Most of these amounts could be repatriated to the United States but would be subject to additional taxes. Repatriation of some foreign balances is restricted by local laws. With the exception of net cash received from our recent sales of leveraged leases, it is our intention to permanently reinvest substantially all of our foreign cash in our foreign operations.

We continuously review our liquidity profile through published credit ratings and the credit default swap market. We monitor the creditworthiness of those banks acting as derivative counterparties, depository banks or credit providers. There has not been a material variation in the underlying sources of cash flows currently used to finance our operations, and we have had consistent access to the commercial paper market. During the second quarter, one of the rating agencies reduced our credit ratings. There can be no assurances that one or more of the rating agencies will not take additional adverse actions in the future.

Cash Flow Summary

The change in cash and cash equivalents is as follows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012			2011			Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	370		$	449		$	(79	)
Net cash used in investing activities	(15		)	(109		)	94
Net cash used in financing activities	(705		)	(253		)	(452		)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	(6		)	7			(13		)
(Decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	(356	)	$	94		$	(450	)

Net cash provided by operating activities was $370 million for the six months ended June 30,2012 compared to $449 million for the six months ended June 30,2011. The decrease of $79 million was primarily due to higher tax payments in 2012 due to tax payments related to the sale of leveraged lease assets and income tax refunds received in 2011 and lower collections of finance and accounts receivables.

Net cash used in investing activities was $15 million for the six months ended June 30,2012 compared to $109 million for the six months ended June 30,2011. The decrease in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to cash proceeds of $106 million received from the sale of leveraged lease assets in 2012.

Net cash used in financing activities was $705 million for the six months ended June 30,2012 compared to $253 million for the six months ended June 30,2011. The increase in cash used in financing activities was due to the repayment of $550 million of long-term debt during the six months ended June 30,2012 compared to the repayment of $50 million of commercial paper borrowings during the six months ended June 30,2011. There were no share repurchases in the six months ended June 30,2012 compared to $50 million of share repurchases in the six months ended June 30,2011.

Financings and Capitalization

We are a Well-Known Seasoned Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which allows us to issue debt securities, preferred stock, preference stock, common stock, purchase contracts, depositary shares, warrants and units in an expedited fashion. We have a commercial paper program that is an important source of liquidity for us and a committed credit facility of $1.0 billion to support our commercial paper issuances. The new credit agreement, entered into April 2012, has a four-year term and contains affirmative and negative covenants that we believe are usual and customary for senior unsecured credit agreements, including a financial covenant requiring a maximum of a 3.5 to 1.0 adjusted leverage ratio, which is the ratio of total adjusted debt to adjusted consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the credit agreement. We have not drawn upon the credit agreement.

During the quarter, commercial paper borrowings averaged $142 million at a weighted-average interest rate of 0.38% and the maximum amount outstanding at any time was $343 million. At June 30, 2012, there was no outstanding commercial paper borrowings.

25

On June 30, 2012, we redeemed the 2012 Notes that were scheduled to mature in October 2012. The redemption of the 2012 Notes included the payment of all accrued interest through the redemption date, a make-whole payment of $4 million and the receipt of $2 million from the termination of interest rate swap contracts related to the 2012 Notes. We also prepaid a $150 million term loan at par value plus accrued interest in March 2012.

During the quarter, we entered into forward starting swap agreements to hedge interest rate risk associated with the planned issuance of long-term debt before the end of the second quarter. We chose not to issue debt within the planned time period, and on June 29, 2012, the swap agreements expired and we made a $6 million cash payment.

Cash contribution to our pension plans were $10 million in the quarter and $113 million through June 30, 2012, and includes special contributions of $95 million. We anticipate making additional contributions of approximately $10 million to each of our U.S. and foreign pension plans during the year. We will reassess our funding alternatives as the year progresses.

On July 9, 2012, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.375 per share, payable September 12, 2012 to stockholders of record on August 10, 2012.
