Basis of Presentation | |
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Astec Industries, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. | |
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. | |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,” which raises the previous threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations and requires new disclosures for individually material disposal transactions that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. The standard also allows companies to have significant continuing involvement and continuing cash flows with the discontinued operation. The standard also requires the reclassification of assets and liabilities of a discontinued operation in the balance sheet for all periods presented. The standard is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and is to be implemented prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. |

Fair Value Measurements | ' | ||||||||||||
Note 6. Fair Value Measurements | |||||||||||||
The Company has various financial instruments that must be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including marketable debt and equity securities held by Astec Insurance Company (“Astec Insurance”), the Company’s captive insurance company, and marketable equity securities held in an unqualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”). The obligations of the Company associated with the financial assets held in the SERP also constitute a liability of the Company for financial reporting purposes and are included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets. The Company’s subsidiaries also occasionally enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. | |||||||||||||
The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, revolving debt and accounts payable approximates their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Investments are carried at their fair value based on quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or, where no quoted prices exist, other observable inputs for the asset. The fair values of foreign currency exchange contracts are based on quotations from various banks for similar instruments using models with market based inputs. | |||||||||||||
Financial assets and liabilities are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The inputs used to measure the fair value are identified in 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 asset or liability. | |||||||||||||
Level 3 - | Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing | ||||||||||||
the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in | |||||||||||||
the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model. | |||||||||||||
As indicated in the tables below (which excludes the Company’s pension assets), the Company has determined that all of its financial assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are level 1 and level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as defined above (in thousands): | |||||||||||||

The Company reevaluates the volume of trading activity for each of its investments at the end of each quarter and adjusts the level within the fair value hierarchy as needed. There were no changes in fair value hierarchy level designations between December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2014. | |||||||||||||
The trading equity investments noted above are valued at their fair value based on their quoted market prices, and the debt securities are valued based upon a mix of observable market prices and model driven prices derived from a matrix of observable market prices for assets with similar characteristics obtained with the assistance of a nationally recognized first party pricing service. Additionally, a significant portion of the SERP’s investments in trading equity securities are in money market and mutual funds. As these money market and mutual funds are held in a SERP, they are also included in the Company’s liability under its SERP. | |||||||||||||
Trading debt securities are comprised of marketable debt securities held by Astec Insurance. Astec Insurance has an investment strategy that focuses on providing regular and predictable interest income from a diversified portfolio of high-quality fixed income securities. | |||||||||||||
Net unrealized gains or losses incurred during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 on investments still held as of the end of each reporting period amounted to gains of $54,000 and $134,000, respectively. |

Note 7. Debt | |
On April 12, 2012, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with Wells Fargo whereby Wells Fargo extended to the Company an unsecured line of credit of up to $100,000,000, including a sub-limit for letters of credit of up to $25,000,000. The amended and restated credit agreement replaced the expiring $100,000,000 credit facility between the Company and Wells Fargo. As of March 31, 2014, there was $2,104,000 outstanding under the line of credit facility, which is included in other current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet. There were no outstanding borrowings under the credit facility at December 31, 2013. Letters of credit totaling $5,989,000 were outstanding under the credit facility as of March 31, 2014, resulting in additional borrowing ability of $91,907,000 under the credit facility as of March 31, 2014. The credit agreement has a five-year term expiring in April 2017. Borrowings under the agreement are subject to an interest rate equal to the daily one-month LIBOR rate plus a 0.75% margin, resulting in a rate of 0.91% as of March 31, 2014. The unused facility fee is 0.175%. Interest only payments are due monthly. The amended and restated credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, including provisions concerning required levels of annual net income, minimum tangible net worth and maximum allowed capital expenditures. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2014. | |
The Company’s South African subsidiary, Osborn Engineered Products SA (Pty) Ltd (“Osborn”), has a credit facility of $7,055,000 (ZAR 75,000,000) to finance short-term working capital needs, as well as to cover performance letters of credit, advance payment and retention guarantees. As of March 31, 2014, Osborn had no cash borrowings but did have $821,000 in performance, advance payment and retention guarantees outstanding under the facility. The facility is unsecured and no unused facility fees are charged. As of March 31, 2014, Osborn had available credit under the facility of $6,234,000. The interest rate is 0.25% less than the South Africa prime rate, resulting in a rate of 8.75% as of March 31, 2014. |

The Company warrants its products against manufacturing defects and performance to specified standards. The warranty period and performance standards vary by market and uses of its products, but generally range from three months to one year or up to a specified number of hours of operations. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranties and records a liability at the time product sales are recorded. The product warranty liability is primarily based on historical claim rates, nature of claims and the associated cost. | |||||||||

Note 9. Accrued Loss Reserves | |
The Company accrues reserves for losses related to known workers’ compensation and general liability claims that have been incurred but not yet paid or are estimated to have been incurred but not yet reported to the Company. The undiscounted reserves are actuarially determined based on the Company’s evaluation of the type and severity of individual claims and historical information, primarily its own claims experience, along with assumptions about future events. Changes in assumptions, as well as changes in actual experience, could cause these estimates to change in the future. Total accrued loss reserves were $7,472,000 as of March 31, 2014 compared to $7,344,000 as of December 31, 2013, of which $3,952,000 and $4,016,000 were included in other long-term liabilities as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. |

Note 10. Income Taxes | |
The Company’s combined effective income tax rates were 32.2% and 29.8% for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 includes the effect of state income taxes and other discrete items but did not include benefits for research and development tax credits given that the tax credits expired as of December 31, 2013 and have not been renewed by Congress as of March 31, 2014. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013 included a benefit for research and development tax credits on eligible expenses incurred from January 1, 2012 through March 31, 2013 as the legislation enacting the research and development tax credits for 2012 and 2013 was not approved by Congress until January 2013. | |
The Company's liability recorded for uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2014 has not changed significantly in amount or composition since December 31, 2013. |

Note 11. Segment Information | |||||||||||||||||||||
Due to the recent sale of a Company subsidiary and other Company product lines as well as responsibility for other product lines transferring between Company subsidiaries, the composition of the Company’s reportable segments has been changed as of March 31, 2014. Historical segment information presented for the three months ended March 31, 2013 has been reclassified to reflect the new segment structure. The Company now has three reportable segments which are combinations of business units that offer similar products and services and meet the requirements of aggregation. A brief description of each segment is as follows: | |||||||||||||||||||||
Infrastructure Group - This segment consists of five business units, three of which design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of portable, stationary and relocatable hot-mix asphalt plants, asphalt pavers, material transfer vehicles, milling machines and paver screeds. Two of the business units in this segment operate as Company-owned dealers in the foreign countries in which they are domiciled. These two business units sell, service and install products produced by the manufacturing subsidiaries of the Company with the majority of the sales to the infrastructure industry. The principal purchasers of the products produced by this group are asphalt producers, highway and heavy equipment contractors and foreign and domestic governmental agencies. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Aggregate and Mining Group - This segment consists of seven business units that design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of jaw crushers, cone crushers, horizontal shaft impactors, vertical shaft impactors and roll rock crushers, stationary rockbreaker systems, vibrating feeders and high frequency vibrating screens, conveyors, inclined, vertical and horizontal screens and sand classifying and washing equipment. The principal purchasers of products produced by this group are distributors, open mine operators, quarry operators, highway and heavy equipment contractors and foreign and domestic governmental agencies. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Energy Group - This segment consists of five business units that design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of drilling rigs for the oil and gas, geothermal and water well industries, high pressure diesel pump trailers for fracking and cleaning oil and gas wells, a variety of industrial heaters to fit a broad range of applications including heating equipment for refineries, oil sands and energy related processing, heat transfer processing equipment, thermal fluid storage tanks, waste heat recovery equipment, and whole-tree pulpwood and biomass chippers and horizontal grinders. The principal purchasers of products produced by this group are oil, gas and water well drilling industry contractors, processors of oil, gas and biomass for energy production and contractors in the construction and demolition recycling markets. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Corporate - This category consists of business units that do not meet the requirements for separate disclosure as an operating segment and includes the Company’s parent company, Astec Industries, Inc. and Astec Insurance Company, a Company-owned captive insurance company. The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources to its operating segments based on profit or loss from operations before U.S. federal income taxes and corporate overhead and thus these costs are included in the Corporate category. | |||||||||||||||||||||

Note 12. Contingent Matters | |
Certain customers have financed purchases of Company products through arrangements in which the Company is contingently liable for customer debt of $817,000 and $693,000 as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The maximum potential amount of future payments for which the Company would be liable was equal to $817,000 as of March 31, 2014. These arrangements also provide that the Company will receive the lender’s full security interest in the equipment financed if the Company is required to fulfill its contingent liability under these arrangements. The Company has recorded a liability of $120,000 related to these guarantees as of March 31, 2014. | |
In addition, the Company is contingently liable under letters of credit issued by Wells Fargo totaling $5,989,000 as of March 31, 2014, including a $1,600,000 letter of credit issued on behalf of Astec Australia, one of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. The outstanding letters of credit expire at various dates through November 2017. As of March 31, 2014, Osborn is contingently liable for a total of $821,000 in performance letters of credit, advance payments and retention guarantees. As of March 31, 2014, Astec Australia is contingently liable for a total of $867,000 in performance bank guarantees. The maximum potential amount of future payments under these letters of credit and guarantees for which the Company could be liable is $7,677,000 as of March 31, 2014. | |
The Company is currently a party to various claims and legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. If management believes that a loss arising from such claims and legal proceedings is probable and can reasonably be estimated, the Company records the amount of the loss (excluding estimated legal fees) or the minimum estimated liability when the loss is estimated using a range and no point within the range is more probable than another. As management becomes aware of additional information concerning such contingencies, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary. If management believes that a loss arising from such claims and legal proceedings is either (i) probable but cannot be reasonably estimated or (ii) reasonably possible but not probable, the Company does not record the amount of the loss, but does make specific disclosure of such matter. Based upon currently available information and with the advice of counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome of its current claims and legal proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations. However, claims and legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties and rulings unfavorable to the Company could occur. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations. | |
During 2004, the Company received notice from the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) that it may be responsible for a portion of the costs incurred in connection with an environmental cleanup in Illinois. The discharge of hazardous materials and associated cleanup relate to activities occurring prior to the Company’s acquisition of Barber-Greene in 1986. The Company believes that over 300 other parties have received similar notices. At this time, the Company cannot predict whether the EPA will seek to hold the Company liable for a portion of the cleanup costs or the amount of any such liability. The Company has not recorded a liability with respect to this matter because no estimate of the amount of any such liability can be made at this time. |

Note 13. Shareholders’ Equity | |
Beginning in 2006 and again in 2011, the Company implemented five-year plans to award key members of management restricted stock units (“RSUs”) each year based upon annual financial performance of the Company and its subsidiaries. Each five-year plan allows up to 700,000 of newly issued shares of Company stock to be granted to employees. The number of RSUs granted each year is determined based upon the performance of individual subsidiaries and consolidated annual financial performance, with additional RSUs available for cumulative five-year results. Generally, each award vests at the end of five years from the date of grant, or at the time a recipient retires after reaching age 65, if earlier. A total of 62,036 and 68,629 RSUs vested during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Company withheld 19,849 and 22,330 shares due to statutory payroll tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of the RSUs in the first three months of 2014 and 2013, respectively, and used Company funds to remit the related required minimum withholding taxes to the various tax authorities. The vesting date fair value of the RSUs that vested during the first quarter of 2014 and 2013 was $2,504,000 and $2,405,000, respectively. Compensation expense of $305,000 and $377,000 was recorded in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to reflect the fair value of RSUs granted (or anticipated to be granted for 2014 and cumulative five-year performance) less estimated forfeitures, amortized over the portion of the vesting period occurring during the periods. |

Note 15. Derivative Financial Instruments | |
The Company is exposed to certain risks related to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk managed by using derivative instruments is foreign currency risk. From time to time the Company’s foreign subsidiaries enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. The fair value of the derivative financial instrument is recorded on the Company’s balance sheet and is adjusted to fair value at each measurement date. The changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of income in the current period. The Company does not engage in speculative transactions nor does it hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes. The average U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount of outstanding foreign currency exchange contracts was $9,527,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014. The Company reported $141,000 of derivative liabilities in other accrued liabilities at March 31, 2014. At December 31, 2013, the Company reported $452,000 of derivative assets in other current assets. The Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net loss of $530,000 on the change in fair value of derivative financial instruments in the three-month period ended March 31, 2014. In the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, the Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net gain of $337,000 on the change in fair value of derivative financial instruments. There were no derivatives that were designated as hedges at March 31, 2014. |

On April 1, 2014, the Company purchased 100% of the stock of Telestack Limited (“Telestack”) for a total purchase price of $36,000,000. The purchase price was paid in cash with $2,500,000 deposited into escrow for a period of time not to exceed one year and is subject to certain post-closing adjustments. Telestack’s operating results will be included in the Aggregate and Mining Group beginning in the second quarter of 2014. | |
Telestack, located in Omagh, Northern Ireland, began operations in 1999 and specializes in the complete in-house design, manufacture, installation and commissioning of a complete line of material handling systems used extensively in the port, aggregate and mining industries. Telestack markets their products throughout the world by a combination of direct sales and distribution through dealers. The Company anticipates the synergies between Telestack and the Company’s existing aggregate and wood pellet product lines will benefit both companies. |

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Astec Industries, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. | |
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. | |

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,” which raises the previous threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations and requires new disclosures for individually material disposal transactions that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. The standard also allows companies to have significant continuing involvement and continuing cash flows with the discontinued operation. The standard also requires the reclassification of assets and liabilities of a discontinued operation in the balance sheet for all periods presented. The standard is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and is to be implemented prospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations. |
