ILLINOIS TOOL WORKS INC. and SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(1) FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The unaudited financial statements included herein have been prepared by Illinois Tool Works Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”). In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the results for interim periods. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to financial statements included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain reclassifications of prior year data have been made to conform with current year reporting.

(2) DIVESTITURE OF MAJORITY INTEREST IN FORMER DECORATIVE SURFACES SEGMENT

On August 15, 2012, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) to divest a 51% majority interest in its Decorative Surfaces segment to certain funds managed by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”). The transaction closed on October 31, 2012, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $933 million ($632 million after-tax) in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Under the terms of the Investment Agreement, the Company contributed the assets and stock of the Decorative Surfaces segment to a newly formed entity, Wilsonart International Holdings LLC (“Wilsonart”). Through a combination of CD&R's equity investment in Wilsonart and new third party borrowings by a subsidiary of Wilsonart, the Company and its subsidiaries received payments of approximately $1.05 billion from Wilsonart and its subsidiaries as well as common units (the “Common Units”) initially representing approximately 49% (on an as-converted basis) of the total outstanding equity of Wilsonart immediately following the closing of the transaction. CD&R contributed $395 million to Wilsonart in exchange for newly issued cumulative convertible participating preferred units (the “Preferred Units”) of Wilsonart initially representing approximately 51% (on an as-converted basis) of the total outstanding equity immediately following the closing of the transaction. The Preferred Units rank senior to the Common Units as to dividends and liquidation preference, and accrue dividends at a rate of 10.00% per annum.

As of October 31, 2012, the Company ceased consolidating the results of the Decorative Surfaces segment and now reports its ownership interest in Wilsonart using the equity method of accounting. As the Company's investment in Wilsonart is structured as a partnership for U.S. tax purposes, U.S. taxes are recorded separately from the equity investment. The Company's equity in the earnings of Wilsonart was $4 million of loss for the three month period and $6 million of loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, which was included in Other income (expense).

Due to the Company's continuing involvement through its 49% interest in Wilsonart, the historical operating results of Decorative Surfaces are presented in continuing operations. Additionally, as of November 1, 2012, the operating results of Decorative Surfaces were no longer reviewed by senior management of the Company and therefore, effective the fourth quarter of 2012, Decorative Surfaces was no longer a reportable segment of the Company.

Historical operating results of the former Decorative Surfaces segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 were as follows:



(In millions)	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2012		September 30, 2012
Operating revenues	$	267	$	828
Operating income	41		131

(3) DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

The Company periodically reviews its operations for businesses which may no longer be aligned with its enterprise initiatives and long-term objectives. As such, the Company may commit to a plan to exit or dispose of certain businesses and present them as discontinued operations. The following summarizes the Company's discontinued operations.

Third Quarter 2013 Discontinued Operations - In February 2013, the Company announced that it was initiating a review process to explore strategic alternatives for its Industrial Packaging segment. In September 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a plan to commence a sale process for the Industrial Packaging segment. Management expects that the sales process will continue into 2014 and expects to sell the Industrial Packaging segment by mid-2014. The Company has classified the Industrial Packaging segment as held for sale in the third quarter of 2013 and is no longer presenting this segment as part of its continuing operations.

In the third quarter of 2013, the Company also committed to plans for the divestiture of a construction distribution business previously included in the Construction Products segment and a specialty coatings business previously included in the Polymers & Fluids segment. The Company expects to sell the construction distribution and specialty coatings businesses within the next year. The construction distribution and specialty coatings businesses were classified as held for sale beginning in the third quarter of 2013.

First Quarter 2013 Discontinued Operations - In the first quarter of 2013, the Company committed to plans for the divestiture of two transportation related businesses and a machine components business previously included in the Specialty Products segment, two construction distribution businesses previously included in the Construction Products segment, and a chemical manufacturing business previously included in the Polymers & Fluids segment. These businesses were classified as held for sale beginning in the first quarter of 2013. In connection with the anticipated sale of these businesses, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $42 million and loss reserves on assets held for sale of $60 million in the first quarter of 2013 which were included in Income from Discontinued Operations.

The Company also reclassified certain previously divested businesses as discontinued operations in the first quarter of 2013. These included a consumer packaging business that was previously included in the Specialty Products segment (formerly the All Other segment), a packaging distribution business which was previously included in the Industrial Packaging segment, and a welding manufacturing business previously included in the Welding segment (formerly in the Power Systems & Electronics segment). The consumer packaging business was sold in the third quarter of 2012 and resulted in a $27 million pre-tax gain. The packaging distribution and welding manufacturing businesses were both sold in the fourth quarter of 2012 and resulted in a pre-tax loss of $19 million and a pre-tax gain of $16 million, respectively.

In the second quarter of 2013, the Company divested one of the held for sale transportation related businesses resulting in a pre-tax loss of $1 million, the machine components business resulting in a pre-tax gain of $14 million, and the chemical manufacturing business resulting in a pre-tax loss of $6 million. In the third quarter of 2013, the Company divested the second held for sale transportation related business resulting in a pre-tax loss of $10 million. The Company expects to dispose of the two held for sale construction distribution businesses by the end of the first quarter of 2014.

2011 Discontinued Operations - In April 2011, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its finishing group of businesses previously included in the Specialty Products segment (formerly the All Other segment) to Graco Inc. in a $650 million cash transaction. The sale of the finishing business to Graco was completed on April 2, 2012 and the Company recorded a pre-tax gain of $454 million in the second quarter of 2012.

Additionally, in the second quarter of 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved plans to divest a consumer packaging business in the Specialty Products segment (formerly the All Other segment). In the third quarter of 2012, the Company divested this business which resulted in pre-tax gain of $17 million.

The Company has restated the statement of income and the notes to financial statements to present the operating results of the held for sale and previously divested businesses discussed above as discontinued operations. Results of the businesses presented as discontinued operations for the third quarter and year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:



	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
(In millions)	September 30, 2013						September 30, 2013
	2013			2012			2013			2012
Operating revenues	$	657		$	779		$	2,157		$	2,543

Income from discontinued operations before income taxes	$	57		$	140		$	107		$	796
Income taxes	(11		)	(61		)	(59		)	(217		)
Income from discontinued operations	$	46		$	79		$	48		$	579

There were no held for sale businesses as of December 31, 2012. As of September 30, 2013, the assets and liabilities of the Industrial Packaging business, the three construction distribution businesses, and the specialty coatings business discussed above were included in assets and liabilities held for sale in the statement of financial position, as follows:



(In millions)	September 30, 2013
Trade receivables	$	423
Inventories	256
Net plant and equipment	303
Goodwill and intangible assets	870
Other	145
Loss reserves on assets held for sale	(46		)
Total assets held for sale	$	1,951

Accounts payable	$	121
Accrued expenses	160
Other	113
Total liabilities held for sale	$	394

(4) GAIN ON ACQUISITION OF CONTROLLING INTEREST IN EQUITY INVESTMENT

On January 31, 2013, the Company acquired the controlling interest of an existing consumer packaging business in the Specialty Products segment previously accounted for under the equity method. The Company recorded a pre-tax gain of $30 million in Other income (expense) in the first quarter of 2013 as a result of remeasuring the Company's existing equity interest to fair value by determining the implied equity value using a Level 3 valuation method.

(5) INCOME TAXES

In the third quarter of 2013, the Company recorded a discrete tax charge of $40 million related to the tax treatment of intercompany financing transactions that impact the taxability of foreign earnings. The components of the effective tax rate for the third quarter and year-to-date periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:



	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 30,				September 30,
	2013		2012		2013		2012
Tax rate based on estimated annual effective tax rate	29.0	%	27.8	%	28.8	%	28.3	%
Discrete tax adjustment	6.4	%	—	%	2.3	%	—	%
Effective tax rate	35.4	%	27.8	%	31.1	%	28.3	%

The Company and its subsidiaries file tax returns in the U.S. and various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. These tax returns are routinely audited by the tax authorities in these jurisdictions including the Internal Revenue Service, Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs, German Fiscal Authority, French Fiscal Authority, and Australian Tax Office and a number of these audits are currently ongoing, which may increase the amount of the unrecognized tax benefits in future periods. Due to the ongoing audits, the Company believes it is reasonably possible that within the next twelve months the amount of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits may be decreased by approximately $21 million related predominantly to various intercompany transactions. The Company has recorded its best estimate of the potential exposure for these issues.

(6) INVENTORIES

Inventories as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows:



(In millions)	September 30, 2013		December 31, 2012
Raw material	$	460	$	539
Work-in-process	151		152
Finished goods	697		894
Total inventories	$	1,308	$	1,585

(7) GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill represents the excess cost over fair value of the net assets of purchased businesses. The Company does not amortize goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite lives. The Company performs an annual impairment assessment of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives based on the estimated fair value of the related reporting unit or intangible asset. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.

When performing its annual impairment assessment, the Company evaluates the goodwill assigned to each of its reporting units for potential impairment by comparing the estimated fair value of the relevant reporting unit to the carrying value. The Company uses various valuation techniques to determine the fair value of its reporting units, including discounting estimated future cash flows based on a detailed cash flow forecast prepared by the relevant reporting unit, market multiples from similar transactions and quoted market prices of relevant public companies. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss, if any, is recorded for the difference between the implied fair value and the carrying value of the reporting unit's goodwill.

The Company's indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of trademarks and brands. The estimated fair values of these intangible assets are determined based on a relief-of-royalty income approach derived from internally forecasted revenues of the related products. If the fair value of the trademark or brand is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded for the difference between the estimated fair value and carrying value of the intangible asset.

The Company performed its annual impairment assessment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets in the third quarter of 2013 and 2012. In the third quarter of 2013, these assessments resulted in no goodwill impairment charges and an intangible asset impairment charge of $2 million related to a manufacturer of specialty devices used to measure the flow of gases and fluids in the Test & Measurement and Electronics segment. In 2012, these assessments resulted in a goodwill impairment charge of $1 million related to the pressure sensitive adhesives reporting unit in the Test & Measurement and Electronics segment (formerly the Power Systems & Electronics segment) and an intangible asset impairment charge of $1 million related to the international reporting unit in the Food Equipment segment.

A summary of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets that were adjusted to fair value and the related impairment charges included in the statement of income in the third quarter of 2013 and 2012 is as follows:



	2013						2012
(In millions)	Book Value		Fair Value		Total Impairment Charges		Book Value		Fair Value		Total Impairment Charges
Goodwill	$	—	$	—	$	—	$	146	$	145	$	1
Indefinite-lived intangible assets	42		40		2		5		4		1

(8) RETIREMENT PLANS AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

Pension and other postretirement benefit costs related to both continuing and discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, were as follows:



	Three Months Ended												Nine Months Ended
(In millions)	September 30,												September 30,
	Pension						Other Postretirement Benefits						Pension						Other Postretirement Benefits
	2013			2012			2013			2012			2013			2012			2013			2012

Net periodic benefit cost	$	32		$	26		$	4		$	6		$	120		$	77		$	12		$	18

The Company recognized pre-tax settlement charges of $34 million in the second quarter of 2013 and $8 million in the third quarter of 2013 tied primarily to higher lump sum pension payments related to the exit of Decorative Surfaces employees from the Company's U.S. primary pension plan. The settlement charges were included in Income from Continuing Operations. Refer to the Divestiture of Majority Interest in Former Decorative Surfaces Segment note for further details regarding the Decorative Surfaces transaction. In addition, the Company recognized a $2 million pre-tax curtailment charge on the U.S. primary pension plan in the third quarter of 2013 related to the Company's plan to sell the Industrial Packaging business and the reclassification of the Industrial Packaging business to discontinued operations. The curtailment charge was included in Income from Discontinued Operations.

The Company expects to contribute approximately $132 million to its pension plans and $9 million to its other postretirement plans in 2013. As of September 30, 2013, contributions of $125 million to pension plans and $6 million to other postretirement plans have been made.

(9) DEBT

Short-term debt represents obligations with an original maturity date of one year or less and are stated at cost which approximates fair value. Short-term debt also includes current maturities of long-term debt. Included in short-term debt is commercial paper of $446 million as of September 30, 2013 and $408 million at December 31, 2012.

Long-term debt represents obligations with an original maturity date of greater than one year, excluding amounts reclassified to short-term debt. In 2009, the Company issued $800 million of 5.15% redeemable notes due April 1, 2014, which were reclassified from long-term to short-term debt in the second quarter of 2013. The approximate fair value and related carrying value of the Company's total long-term debt, including current maturities of long-term debt reclassified to short-term debt, as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were as follows:



(In millions)	September 30, 2013		December 31, 2012
Fair value	$	4,728	$	5,105
Carrying value	4,613		4,595

The approximate fair values of the Company's long-term debt, including current maturities, were based on a Level 2 valuation model, using observable inputs, which included market rates for comparable instruments for the respective periods.

In June 2012, the Company entered into a $1.5 billion line of credit agreement with a termination date of June 8, 2017. In June 2011, the Company entered into a $1.0 billion line of credit agreement with a termination date of June 10, 2016, which the Company terminated on August 16, 2013 and replaced with a $1.0 billion line of credit agreement with a termination date of August 15, 2018. No amounts were outstanding under these facilities at September 30, 2013.

(10) ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Effective January 1, 2013, the Company adopted new accounting guidance that was issued in February 2013 requiring disclosure of amounts transferred out of accumulated other comprehensive income and recognized in the statement of income. The following table summarizes changes in accumulated other comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:



	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
(In millions)	September 30,						September 30,
	2013			2012			2013			2012
Beginning balance	$	12		$	135		$	293		$	224

Foreign currency translation adjustments during the period	241			132			(166		)	64
Foreign currency translation adjustments reclassified to income	1			1			7			(46		)
Total foreign currency translation adjustments	242			133			(159		)	18

Pension and other postretirement benefit adjustments during the period	36			—			147			—
Pension and other postretirement benefit adjustments reclassified to income	22			13			99			49
Income taxes	(20		)	(4		)	(88		)	(14		)
Total pension and other postretirement benefit adjustments	38			9			158			35

Ending balance	$	292		$	277		$	292		$	277

Foreign currency translation adjustments reclassified to income are primarily related to the disposal of certain discontinued operations. Refer to the Discontinued Operations note for additional information. Pension and other postretirement benefit adjustments reclassified to income represent the amortization of actuarial losses and prior service cost, and settlement charges recognized in net periodic benefit cost. Refer to the Retirement Plans and Postretirement Benefits note for the amounts included in net periodic benefit cost. Pension and other postretirement benefit adjustments reclassified to income also included $2 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, and $6 million and $11 million for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, related to the disposal of certain discontinued operations. Refer to the Discontinued Operations note for additional information.

The ending balance of accumulated other comprehensive income as of September 30, 2013 and 2012 consisted of cumulative translation adjustment income of $708 million and $791 million, respectively, and unrecognized pension and other postretirement benefits costs, net of tax, of $416 million and $514 million, respectively.

(11) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

In 2013, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved equity awards (the “2013 Awards”) consisting of stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”). The RSUs provide for full “cliff” vesting three years from the date of grant. The PRSUs provide for full “cliff” vesting after three years if the Compensation Committee certifies that the performance goals set with respect to the PRSUs have been met. Upon vesting, the holder will receive one share of common stock of the Company for each vested RSU or PRSU. The stock options vest over a four-year period and have a maturity of ten years from the issuance date. Option exercise prices are equal to the common stock fair market value on the date of grant. The following table summarizes the 2013 Awards:



(Shares in millions)	Number of Shares	Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value		Weighted-Average Exercise Price
Stock options	1.3	$	10.06	$	63.86
Restricted stock units (RSUs/PRSUs)	0.5	59.03		—

The fair value of RSUs and PRSUs was determined by reducing the closing market price on the date of the grant by the present value of projected dividends over the vesting period. The Company uses a binomial option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the stock options granted. Lattice-based option valuation models, such as the binomial option pricing model, incorporate ranges of assumptions for inputs. The risk-free rate of interest for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on a zero-coupon U.S. government instrument over the contractual term of the equity instrument. Expected volatility is based on implied volatility from traded options on the Company's stock and historical volatility of the Company's stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise timing and employee termination rates within the valuation model. The weighted-average dividend yield is based on historical information. The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the option valuation model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The ranges presented below result from separate groups of employees assumed to exhibit different behavior. The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the models to determine the fair value of the 2013 Awards:



Risk-free interest rate	0.2 - 2.9%
Weighted-average volatility	21.1	%
Dividend yield	2.72	%
Expected years until exercise	6.6 -7.6

(12) SEGMENT INFORMATION

Effective January 1, 2013, the Company made certain changes in how its operations are reported to senior management in order to better align its portfolio of businesses with its enterprise-wide portfolio management initiative. As a result of this reorganization, the Company's operations are aggregated into the following seven external reportable segments: Test & Measurement and Electronics; Automotive OEM; Polymers & Fluids; Food Equipment; Welding; Construction Products; and Specialty Products.

The significant changes resulting from this reorganization included the following:


•	Certain businesses within the former Transportation segment, primarily related to the automotive aftermarket business, are reported in the Polymers & Fluids segment and the Transportation segment has been renamed Automotive OEM.


•	The Welding business, which was formerly reported in the Power Systems & Electronics segment, is reported separately as the Welding segment.


•	The Electronics business, which was formerly reported in the Power Systems & Electronics segment, has been combined with the Test & Measurement business, which was formerly reported in the All Other segment, to form a new Test & Measurement and Electronics segment.


•	The All Other segment has been renamed Specialty Products.

The changes in the reportable segments and underlying reporting units did not result in any goodwill impairment charges in the first quarter of 2013.

Commensurate with the change in reportable segments described above, the segment operating income was also revised for a change in how the operating expenses maintained at the corporate level are allocated to the Company's segments. Prior to January 1, 2013, the Company allocated all operating expenses maintained at the corporate level to its segments. Beginning January 1, 2013, segments are allocated a fixed overhead charge based on the segment's revenues. Expenses not charged to the segments are now reported separately as Unallocated. Because the Unallocated category includes a variety of items, it is subject to fluctuation on a quarterly and annual basis.

The prior year segment results and related disclosures have been restated to conform to the current year presentation under the new segment structure and expense allocation methodology. See Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for information regarding operating revenues and operating income for the Company's segments.

Item 2 - Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

INTRODUCTION

Management analyzes the Company’s consolidated results of operations and the results of each segment by identifying the effects of changes in the results of the base businesses, newly acquired and recently divested companies, restructuring costs, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, and currency translation on the operating revenues and operating income of each segment. Base businesses are those businesses that have been included in the Company’s results of operations for more than 12 months. The changes to base business operating income include the estimated effects of both operating leverage and changes in variable margins and overhead costs. Operating leverage is the estimated effect of the base business revenue volume changes on operating income, assuming variable margins remain the same as the prior period. As manufacturing and administrative overhead costs usually do not significantly change as a result of revenues increasing or decreasing, the percentage change in operating income due to operating leverage is usually more than the percentage change in the base business revenues. Changes in variable margins and overhead costs represent the estimated effect of non-volume related changes in base business operating income and may be driven by a number of factors, including changes in product mix, the cost of raw materials, labor and overhead, and pricing to customers. Selling price versus material cost comparisons represent the estimated net impact of increases or decreases in the cost of materials used in the Company’s products versus changes in the selling price to the Company’s customers. Management reviews these price versus cost comparisons by analyzing the net impact of changes to each segment’s operating margin.

The discussion of operating results should be read in conjunction with Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

ENTERPRISE STRATEGY

During 2012, the Company embarked on an Enterprise Strategy that includes three key initiatives - portfolio management, business structure simplification, and strategic sourcing. These initiatives are expected to enhance the business through 2017 and are targeted at expanding organic revenue growth, and improving profitability and returns.

Portfolio Management - The Company's portfolio management initiative aims to construct a business portfolio that leverages the Company’s differentiated business model. As part of this initiative, the Company reviews its operations for businesses that may no longer be aligned with its long-term objectives. As a result, the Company expects its divestiture activity in the 2012 to 2014 period to increase over historical periods. The Company has historically acquired businesses with complementary products and services as well as larger acquisitions that represent potential new platforms. Going forward, the focus will be on businesses with strong differentiation and growth potential.

Business Structure Simplification - The business structure simplification initiative simplifies and adds scale to the Company's operating divisions in order to increase organic revenue growth, enhance global competitiveness and drive operational efficiencies. This initiative will reduce the number of the Company's operating divisions and increase the average revenue size of each division, while retaining the positive attributes of a decentralized operating model. The Company expects to enhance its profitability and returns through a combination of applying its 80/20 business process to the new divisions, more focused growth investments and reduced infrastructure.

Strategic Sourcing - The Company's strategic sourcing initiative focuses on building sourcing capability in order to leverage purchasing scale to enhance profitability and global competitiveness. It incorporates both enterprise-level and segment-level purchasing that cross the Company's many businesses. This initiative is expected to transform sourcing into a core strategic function in the Company.

DIVESTITURE OF MAJORITY INTEREST IN FORMER DECORATIVE SURFACES SEGMENT

On August 15, 2012, the Company entered into a definitive agreement (the “Investment Agreement”) to divest a 51% majority interest in its Decorative Surfaces segment to certain funds managed by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”). Under the terms of the Investment Agreement, the Company contributed the assets and stock of the Decorative Surfaces segment to a newly formed entity, Wilsonart International Holdings LLC (“Wilsonart”). The transaction closed on October 31, 2012, reducing the Company's ownership of Wilsonart to 49% immediately following the close of the transaction. The Company ceased consolidating the results of the Decorative Surfaces segment as of October 31, 2012 and now reports its 49% ownership interest in Wilsonart using the equity method of accounting. Due to the Company's continuing involvement through its 49% interest in Wilsonart, the historical operating results of Decorative Surfaces are presented in continuing operations. Additionally, as of November 1, 2012, the operating results of Decorative Surfaces were no longer reviewed by senior management of the Company and therefore, effective the fourth quarter of 2012, Decorative Surfaces was no longer a reportable segment of the Company. See the Divestiture of Majority Interest in Former Decorative Surfaces Segment note in Item 1 - Financial Statements for further discussion of this transaction.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

In February 2013, the Company announced that it was initiating a review process to explore strategic alternatives for its Industrial Packaging segment. In September 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a plan to commence a sale process for the Industrial Packaging segment. The Company has classified the Industrial Packaging segment as held for sale in the third quarter of 2013 and is no longer presenting this segment as part of its continuing operations.

In the third quarter of 2013, the Company also committed to plans for the divestiture of a construction distribution business previously included in the Construction Products segment and a specialty coatings business previously included in the Polymers & Fluids segment. The construction distribution and specialty coatings businesses were classified as held for sale beginning in the third quarter of 2013.

In the first quarter of 2013, the Company committed to plans for the divestiture of two transportation related businesses and a machine components business previously included in the Specialty Products segment, two construction distribution businesses previously included in the Construction Products segment, and a chemical manufacturing business previously included in the Polymers & Fluids segment.

These held for sale businesses discussed above, as well as certain previously divested businesses are reported as discontinued operations in the statement of income. All related prior period income statement information has been restated to conform to the current year reporting of these businesses. Refer to the Discontinued Operations note in Item I - Financial Statements for further details regarding the Company’s discontinued operations.

2013 SEGMENT CHANGES

The significant changes resulting from this reorganization included the following:


•	Certain businesses within the former Transportation segment, primarily related to the automotive aftermarket business, are reported in the Polymers & Fluids segment and the Transportation segment has been renamed Automotive OEM.


•	The Welding business, which was formerly reported in the Power Systems & Electronics segment, is reported separately as the Welding segment.


•	The Electronics business, which was formerly reported in the Power Systems & Electronics segment, has been combined with the Test & Measurement business, which was formerly reported in the All Other segment, to form a new Test & Measurement and Electronics segment.


•	The All Other segment has been renamed Specialty Products.

The changes in the reportable segments and underlying reporting units did not result in any goodwill impairment charges in the first quarter of 2013.

The prior year segment results and related disclosures have been restated to conform to the current year presentation under the new segment structure and expense allocation methodology.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company’s consolidated results of operations for the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2013 and 2012 were as follows:



	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended

Operating Revenues

Revenues decreased 4.4% for the third quarter of 2013 versus 2012 primarily due to the divestiture of the Decorative Surfaces segment in the fourth quarter of 2012. Excluding the former Decorative Surfaces segment revenues from the third quarter of 2012, revenues increased 2.9% primarily driven by higher acquisition and base revenues (see "Results of Operations by Segment" table below). Worldwide base revenues for the third quarter increased 0.4%. International base revenues grew 2.9%, with European base revenues increasing 1.0% primarily driven by the Automotive OEM and Food Equipment segments. Asia Pacific base revenues increased 6.9% with strong growth in China and Australia/New Zealand. North American base revenues declined 1.4% primarily driven by the Test & Measurement and Electronics segment as the electronics assembly business had strong order rates from a key electronics customer in 2012 that did not recur in 2013. This was partially offset by higher organic revenues in the Automotive OEM, Construction Products, and Food Equipment segments. Year-to-date, revenues declined 6.4% primarily due to the divestiture of the Decorative Surfaces segment in late 2012. Excluding the former Decorative Surfaces segment, year-to-date revenues increased 1.0% driven by higher revenues from acquisitions (see "Results of Operations by Segment" table below). Base revenues for the year-to-date period declined 0.5%. North American base revenues in the year-to-date period were lower by 1.4% primarily due to the electronics assembly business, as noted above. International base revenues increased 0.5% due to growth in Asia Pacific of 3.4%, primarily the result of strong growth in China. European base revenues declined 1.6% due to weakness in the European economic environment in the first quarter of 2013. Divestitures reduced revenues by 7.2% and 7.4% for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to the sale of a 51% interest in the former Decorative Surfaces segment on October 31, 2012, at which time the segment was deconsolidated. Acquisitions contributed 2.2% and 1.6% to revenues for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Acquisitions in the third quarter of 2013 included a European consumer packaging equipment business and a Chinese food equipment business.

Operating Income

Operating income increased 1.8% in the third quarter of 2013 versus 2012 primarily due to lower operating expenses and higher base revenues, partially offset by the divestiture of the former Decorative Surfaces segment in the fourth quarter of 2012. Operating income decreased 3.3% in the year-to-date period, primarily due to the divestiture of the former Decorative Surfaces segment, partially offset by lower overhead costs resulting from the Company's enterprise initiatives, largely related to business structure simplification activities. Total base operating margins increased 100 and 60 basis points in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to lower overhead costs. The changes in variable margins and overhead costs increased base margins by 90 and 70 basis points in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, driven by reductions in overhead expenses from the Company's enterprise initiatives of 80 and 60 basis points, respectively, resulting primarily from the benefits of business structure simplification activities, and the favorable effect of selling price versus material cost comparisons of 30 basis points in each respective period.

Unallocated expenses increased in the year-to-date period primarily due to the $34 million pre-tax pension settlement charge recognized in the second quarter of 2013. See the Retirement Plans and Postretirement Benefits note in Item 1 - Financial Statements for additional information.

TEST & MEASUREMENT AND ELECTRONICS

Businesses in this segment produce equipment, consumables, and related software for testing and measuring of materials and structures, and equipment and consumables used in the production of electronic subassemblies and microelectronics.

In the Test & Measurement and Electronics segment, products include:


•	equipment, consumables, and related software for testing and measuring of materials, structures, gases and fluids;


•	electronic assembly equipment and related consumable solder materials;


•	electronic components and component packaging;


•	static control equipment and consumables used for contamination control in clean room environments; and


•	pressure sensitive adhesives and components for telecommunications, electronics, medical and transportation applications.

This segment primarily serves the electronics, general industrial, consumer durables and industrial capital goods markets.

The results of operations for the Test & Measurement and Electronics segment for the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2013 and 2012 were as follows:



	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)	September 30,						September 30,

Total	(10.9	)%	(20.4	)%	(1.9	)%	(7.3	)%	(13.6	)%	(1.0	)%

Operating Revenues

Revenues decreased 10.9% and 7.3% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2013, respectively, versus 2012 due to a decline in base business, partially offset by revenues from acquisitions. Worldwide electronics base business revenues decreased 21.1% and 15.7% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to the decrease in base revenues for the electronics assembly businesses of 45.0% and 37.5% for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. The base revenue decrease resulted primarily from strong order rates from a key electronics customer in 2012 that did not recur in 2013. Base revenues for the other electronics businesses increased 5.0% and 2.3% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to increased demand in China. Base revenues for the worldwide test and measurement businesses decreased 0.8% and 0.4% for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to softness in U.S. and European industrial capital expenditures. The acquisition revenue was primarily due to the purchase of a European supplier of industrial metal detection equipment in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Operating Income

Operating income decreased 20.4% and 13.6% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2013, respectively, versus 2012 primarily due to the lower base revenues noted above. Total base operating margins decreased 190 and 90 basis points for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to the negative operating leverage effect of the decrease in base revenues of 360 and 270 basis points in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, partially offset by changes in variable margins and overhead costs. The changes in variable margins and overhead costs increased base margins by 170 and 180 basis points in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to lower operating expenses, including a one-time claim recovery of 100 basis points in the third quarter, and benefits from business structure simplification activities and overhead cost management of 70 and 80 basis points, respectively. In addition, the year-to-date period benefited from lower intangible asset amortization of 50 basis points and favorable selling price versus material cost comparisons of 30 basis points. The Company performed its annual impairment testing for indefinite-lived intangible assets in the third quarter of 2013 and recorded an intangible asset impairment charge related to a manufacturer of specialty devices used to measure the flow of gases and fluids that negatively impacted margins by 40 basis points. See the Goodwill and Intangible Assets note in Item 1 - Financial Statements for further discussion of the Company's annual impairment assessment.

AUTOMOTIVE OEM

Businesses in this segment produce components and fasteners for automotive-related applications.

In the Automotive OEM segment, products and services include:


•	plastic and metal components, fasteners and assemblies for automobiles, light trucks, and other industrial uses.

This segment primarily serves the automotive original equipment manufacturers and tiers.

The results of operations for the Automotive OEM segment for the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2013 and 2012 were as follows:



	Three Months Ended						Nine Months Ended
(Dollars in millions)	September 30,						September 30,

Revenues increased 13.2% and 9.7% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2013, respectively, versus 2012 due to the increase in base revenues and the favorable impact of currency translation. Worldwide automotive base revenue growth of 11.5% and 8.9% for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, exceeded worldwide auto builds, which grew 4% and 2% over the respective prior year periods, due to product penetration gains. International automotive base revenues increased 12.9% and 11.1% for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. European base revenue growth of 9.3% and 6.0% exceeded auto build growth of 2% in the third quarter and a decline of 2% in the year-to-date period. Base revenues for Asia Pacific increased 24.3% and 23.2% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. Organic revenue increases in China of 40.4% and 41.8% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, exceeded Chinese auto build growth of 9% and 11% versus the respective prior year periods. North American automotive base revenues grew 10.0% and 6.5% for the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, as North American auto builds increased 6% and 5% versus the respective prior year periods.

Operating Income

Operating income increased 25.0% and 14.7% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2013, respectively, versus 2012 primarily due to higher base revenues and the favorable impact of currency translation, partially offset by higher restructuring expenses. Total base operating margins increased 210 and 120 basis points in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively. The positive operating leverage effect of the increase in base revenues of 180 and 140 basis points versus the respective prior year periods was partially offset by changes in variable margins and overhead costs in the year-to-date period. The changes in variable margins and overhead costs increased base margins by 30 basis points in the third quarter primarily due to variable margin improvement of 20 basis points and lower overhead expenses resulting from the benefits of business structure simplification activities, partially offset by higher investments for expansion in China. The changes in variable margins and overhead costs decreased base margins in the year-to-date period primarily due to higher overhead costs of 30 basis points, including additional investments in China, partially offset by benefits from business structure simplification activities. Higher restructuring expenses diluted total operating margins by 30 and 50 basis points in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively.

Operating Revenues

Revenues increased 10.4% and 4.2% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2013, respectively, versus 2012 primarily due to revenues from acquisitions and an increase in base revenues. The year-to-date period was negatively impacted by a decline in base revenues in the first quarter. The increase in revenues from acquisitions was due to the purchase of a Brazilian manufacturer of cooking equipment in the fourth quarter of 2012 and a Chinese food equipment business in the third quarter of 2013. North American base revenues increased 4.4% and 2.8% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, as North American service revenues increased 8.0% and 5.3%, respectively, due to expanded service capabilities and improved market penetration, and equipment revenues increased 2.3% and 1.2%, respectively. North American base revenues in the year-to-date period were partially offset by slower demand for slicing and mixing equipment in the first quarter. International base revenues increased 4.2% in the third quarter and declined 0.8% in the year-to-date period. Equipment revenues increased 4.0% in the third quarter primarily due to new product launches from a European warewash business and increased sales from a U.K. refrigeration business, and declined 3.5% in the year-to-date period driven by lower European sales in the cooking businesses. International service revenues increased 4.6% and 5.1% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to expanded service capabilities in Europe.

Operating Income

Operating income increased 15.6% and 12.3% in the third quarter and year-to-date periods of 2013, respectively, versus 2012 primarily due to higher base revenues and lower operating expenses, partially offset by higher restructuring expenses. Total base operating margins increased 240 and 210 basis points in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, due to the positive operating leverage effect of the increase in base revenues and changes in variable margins and overhead costs. The changes in variable margins and overhead costs increased base margins by 130 and 180 basis points in the third quarter and year-to-date periods, respectively, primarily due to higher variable margins of 90 and 110 basis points, respectively, driven by operating efficiencies and favorable selling price versus material cost comparisons of 50 and 60 basis points, respectively. Lower overhead expenses of 40 and 70 basis points, respectively, were primarily the result of business structure simplification activities and overhead cost management.
