LENNOX INTERNATIONAL INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. General:
References in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to we, our, us, LII or the Company
refer to Lennox International Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context requires otherwise.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2008, the accompanying
unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008
and 2007, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Statement of Stockholders Equity for the six
months ended June 30, 2008 and the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for
the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 should be read in conjunction with LIIs audited
consolidated financial statements and footnotes as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and for each year
in the three-year period ended December 31, 2007. The accompanying unaudited consolidated
financial statements of LII have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q
and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The presentation of financial statements requires the use of
management estimates and in the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements contain all material adjustments, consisting principally of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Companys financial position, results of
operations and cash flows. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations, although the Company believes
that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The
operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for a full year.
The Companys fiscal year ends on December 31 and the Companys quarters are each comprised of
13 weeks. For convenience, throughout these financial statements, the 13 weeks comprising each
three-month period are denoted by the last day of the respective calendar quarter.
Reclassifications
Certain prior-period balances in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the current periods presentation of financial information.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157), which establishes a framework for measuring fair
value in generally accepted accounting principles, clarifies the definition of fair value within
that framework, and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. However, in February 2008, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, Effective
Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (FSP No. 157-2), which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157
for one year for non-financial assets and liabilities, except for certain items that are recognized
or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually).
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 157 on its consolidated financial
statements for items within the scope of FSP No. 157-2, which will become effective on January 1,
2009.
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company also adopted Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS No.
159). SFAS No. 159 allows an entity the irrevocable option to elect fair value for the initial and
subsequent measurement for certain financial assets and liabilities on a contract-by-contract
basis. The adoption of SFAS No. 159 had no impact on the Companys consolidated financial
statements.
7
Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161,
Disclosures about
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 161). SFAS No. 161 amends and expands the
disclosure requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 133), to provide enhanced disclosures
about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and
related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations, and (c)
how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entitys financial position, results
of operations, and cash flows. In order to meet these expanded disclosure objectives, SFAS No. 161
requires entities to disclose the objectives and strategies for using derivatives, information
about the volume of derivative activity, fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative
instruments in tabular format, and credit-risk contingent features in derivative agreements. SFAS
No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning
after November 15, 2008. Early application is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the
effects that SFAS No. 161 will have on its disclosure of derivatives and hedging activities in the
consolidated financial statements.

5. Short-Term Investments:
The Companys captive insurance subsidiary (the Captive) holds debt securities, consisting
of U.S. government and government agency securities, corporate bonds, asset-backed securities,
collateralized mortgage obligations and various securitized debt instruments. In accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 (as amended), Accounting for Certain
Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, the Company classifies these investments as
available-for-sale. Any unrealized holding gains and losses are reported in Accumulated Other
Comprehensive Income (AOCI), net of applicable taxes, until the gain or loss is realized. The
Company places its investments in high credit quality financial instruments only and limits the
amount invested in any one institution or in any one instrument.
As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Captive held approximately $34.9 million and
$27.7 million, respectively, of short-term investments. Unrealized gains included in AOCI in the
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 were not
material. Realized gains and losses from the sale of securities were also not material for the
three or six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. The maturities of these securities range from
July 2008 to July 2011. It is the Captives intention that these investments be available to
support its current operations as needed. Due to the liquidity of these investments, they are
classified as current assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. For more information
on the valuation of these investments, see Note 16.
6. Cash, Lines of Credit and Financing Arrangements:
The Company considers all highly liquid temporary investments with original maturity dates of
three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents of $95.3 million and $145.5
million as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively, consisted of cash, overnight
repurchase agreements and investment-grade securities and are stated at cost, which approximates
fair value.
As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, $24.9 million and $20.2 million, respectively, of
cash and cash equivalents were restricted primarily due to routine lockbox collections and letters
of credit issued with respect to the operations of the Captive, which expire on December 31, 2008.
The restrictions related to lockbox collections typically expire within three to five business days
after receipt. The letter of credit restrictions can be transferred to the Companys revolving
lines of credit as needed.
The following tables summarize the Companys outstanding debt obligations and the
classification in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2008 and December 31,
2007 (in millions):

As of June 30, 2008, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $413.0 million under the $650.0
million domestic revolving credit facility and $113.6 million was committed to standby letters of
credit. All of the remaining $123.4 million was available for future borrowings after
consideration of covenant limitations. The facility matures in October 2012.
The Company has additional borrowing capacity through several foreign facilities governed by
agreements between the Company and a syndicate of banks, used primarily to finance seasonal
borrowing needs of its foreign subsidiaries. LII had $11.0 million and $5.8 million of obligations
outstanding through its foreign subsidiaries as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007,
respectively.
Under a revolving period asset securitization arrangement, the Company is eligible to transfer
beneficial interests in a portion of its trade accounts receivable to third parties for cash. The
Companys continued involvement in the transferred assets is limited to servicing. These transfers
are accounted for as sales rather than secured borrowings. The fair values assigned to the retained
and transferred interests are based primarily on the receivables carrying value given the
short-term maturity and low credit risk. At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company had
not sold any beneficial interests in accounts receivable. The maximum amount available under the
securitization arrangement depends on the amount of qualifying accounts receivable. The maximum
amount available was $125.0 million and $102.7 million as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007,
respectively.

included in the net periodic pension cost and pension obligation. |
9. Stock-Based Compensation:
The Companys Amended and Restated 1998 Incentive Plan provides for various long-term
incentive awards, which include stock options, performance share units, restricted stock units and
stock appreciation rights.
Compensation expense of $3.5 million and $7.1 million and $6.6 million and $13.3 million was
recognized for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and
is included in Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in the accompanying Consolidated
Statements of Operations. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was primarily due to an
increase in forfeiture rates and a decrease in the estimated pay-out percentage on outstanding
performance share units in the first six months of 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007.
The following tables summarize information concerning the Companys stock options, stock
appreciation rights, performance share units and restricted stock units as of June 30, 2008 (in
millions, except per share data, years, and forfeiture rates):

10. Income Taxes:
As of June 30, 2008, the Company had approximately $24.0 million in total gross unrecognized
tax benefits. Of this amount, $12.9 million (net of federal benefit on state issues), if
recognized, would be recorded through the statement of operations. Also included in the balance of
unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2008 are $3.2 million that, if recognized, would
be recorded as an adjustment to goodwill and $6.4 million that, if recognized, would be recorded as
an adjustment to stockholders equity. In addition, the Company recognizes interest and penalties
accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in accordance with FASB
Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB
Statement 109 (FIN No. 48). As of June 30, 2008, the Company had recognized $2.9 million (net of
federal tax benefits) in interest and penalties.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) completed its examination of the Companys consolidated
tax returns for the years 1999 2003 and issued a Revenue Agents Report (RAR) on April 6, 2006.
The IRS has proposed certain significant adjustments to the Companys insurance deductions and
research tax credits. The Company disagrees with the RAR, which is currently under review by the
administrative appeals division of the IRS, and anticipates resolution by the end of 2008. It is
possible that a reduction in the unrecognized tax benefits may occur but an estimate of the impact
on the statement of operations cannot be made at this time.
The IRS has also completed its examination of the Companys consolidated tax returns for the
years 2004 2005 and expects to issue an RAR by August 31, 2008. The IRS has proposed certain
significant adjustments to the Companys insurance deductions and research tax credits. The Company
disagrees with the adjustments and intends to request a review by the administrative appeals
division of the IRS.
The Company is subject to examination by numerous taxing authorities in jurisdictions such as
Australia, Belgium, Canada, Germany, and the United States. The Company is generally no longer
subject to U.S. federal, state and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by taxing authorities
for years before 1999.
Since January 1, 2008, West Virginia, Colorado and Kansas have enacted legislation effective
for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2008, including adjustments to tax rates,
requirements for combined reporting in future years and changes to apportionment methods. The
Company believes any adjustments will be immaterial.

Manufacturing Rationalization Activities
In the second quarter of 2008, the Company announced the transition of production of selected
Refrigeration products currently manufactured in Milperra, Australia to its sister facility in
Wuxi, China. The Company recorded severance charges of $3.0 million during the three and six
months ended June 30, 2008 for those positions now located in Milperra that will be eliminated. In
addition to the amounts accrued as of June 30, 2008, the Company expects to incur future
restructuring charges of approximately $2.0 million over the remainder of this project, consisting
of asset write-offs, manufacturing inefficiencies and equipment moving costs. The transition is
anticipated to extend through the first half of 2009.
Also in the second quarter of 2008, the Company announced the transition of production of
certain Residential Heating & Cooling products from its Marshalltown, Iowa manufacturing facility
to its new manufacturing operation in Saltillo, Mexico. The transition is anticipated to extend
through the first half of 2009. As a result of the transition, certain manufacturing positions now
located in Marshalltown will be eliminated. Costs associated with the transition primarily consist
of severance, pension curtailment and equipment moving expenses. In connection with the
transition, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $1.7 million for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2008, including a pension curtailment charge of $0.8 million. In addition to the
amounts accrued as of June 30, 2008, the Company expects to incur restructuring charges of
approximately $0.8 million over the remainder of this project.
In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company announced plans to close its Refrigeration
operations in Danville, Illinois and consolidate its Danville manufacturing, support and warehouse
functions in its Tifton, Georgia and Stone Mountain, Georgia operations. The consolidation is a
phased process and is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2009. In connection with
this consolidation project, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $1.6 million and $2.9
million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. The restructuring charges
primarily related to costs to move certain equipment and disposal of certain long-lived assets,
including charges of $1.6 million of accelerated depreciation recorded in the first half of 2008
related to the reduction in useful lives and disposal of certain long-lived assets. In addition to
the amounts accrued as of June 30, 2008, the Company expects to incur future restructuring charges
of approximately $7.2 million over the remainder of this project.
In the third quarter of 2007, the Company announced plans to close Lennox Hearth Products
Inc.s operations in Lynwood, California, part of its Residential Heating & Cooling operations, and
consolidate its U.S. factory-built fireplace manufacturing operations in its facility in Union
City, Tennessee. In connection with this consolidation project, the Company recorded restructuring
charges of $0.5 million and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008,
respectively. The restructuring charges primarily related to costs to move equipment and the
disposal of certain long-lived assets. The consolidation was substantially complete as of June 30,
2008.
In 2006, the Company commenced consolidation of the manufacturing, distribution, research and
development and administrative operations of Allied Air Enterprises Inc., the Companys two-step
Residential Heating & Cooling operations in South Carolina, and closure of its operations in
Bellevue, Ohio. The consolidation was substantially complete as of March 31, 2007. In connection
with this consolidation project, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $0.7 million and
$2.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.
13
Corporate Reorganizations and Other
In the second quarter of 2007, the Company reorganized its corporate administrative function
and eliminated the position of chief administrative officer. In connection with this action, the
Company recorded an $8.0 million liability to settle the terms of his employment agreement, of
which $6.6 million, net of $1.4 million of previously
recorded stock-based compensation expense, was recorded in the second quarter of 2007. The
final settlement of this matter occurred and an amount equal to the liability recorded was paid
during the three months ended June 30, 2008.
A pension settlement loss of approximately $0.7 million is included in restructuring expense
for the six months ended June 30, 2007, which related to the Companys full funding of lump-sum
pension payments to selected participants in March 2007 as part of a prior restructuring initiative
in 2001.

Options to purchase 49,700 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $35.82 to $43.66 per
share and options to purchase 99,613 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $35.82 to $49.63
per share were outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, but were
not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation because the assumed exercise of such
options would have been anti-dilutive.

14. Investments in Affiliates:
The Company participates in three joint ventures that are located in the U.S., Mexico, and
Thailand through investments in the common stock of the affiliated companies. These joint ventures
are engaged in the manufacture and sale of compressors, unit coolers and condensing units. As of
June 30, 2008, the Companys percentage of ownership interest in these affiliates ranges from 13%
to 50%. Because the Company exerts significant influence over these affiliates, but does not
control them, the investments have been accounted for under the equity method and their financial
position and results of operations are not consolidated.

The Company recorded the following amounts of investment income from these equity method
investments in the Consolidated Statement of Operations (in millions):

During the three months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded a $2.3 million impairment
charge related to the investment in its joint venture in Thailand. The joint ventures financial
results were adversely impacted by recent increases in commodity costs, unfavorable currency
exchange fluctuations, and difficulties integrating past acquisitions, which prompted the
impairment charge. This charge reflects recent indications of a decrease in the fair value of the
investment below its carrying value that the Company believes is not recoverable in the near term.
15. Derivatives:
LII utilizes a program to mitigate the exposure to volatility in the prices of certain
commodities the Company uses in its production process. The program includes the use of futures
contracts and fixed forward contracts. The intent of the program is to protect the Companys
operating margins and overall profitability from adverse price changes by entering into derivative
instruments.
The Company accounts for instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges utilizing Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities, as amended (SFAS No. 133). Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2006, futures
contracts entered into that met established accounting criteria were formally designated as cash
flow hedges. For futures contracts that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, the
Company assesses hedge effectiveness and measures hedge ineffectiveness at least quarterly
throughout the designated period. The effective portion of the gain or loss on the futures
contracts is recorded, net of applicable taxes, in AOCI, a component of Stockholders Equity in the
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. When net income is affected by the variability of the
underlying cash flow, the applicable offsetting amount of the gain or loss from the futures
contracts that is deferred in AOCI is released to net income and is reported as a component of Cost
of Goods Sold in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three and six
months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, $5.8 million and $3.0 million and $7.9 million and $1.4
million, respectively, in gains, were reclassified from AOCI to net income. Changes in
the fair value of futures contracts that do not effectively offset changes in the fair value of the
underlying hedged item throughout the designated hedge period (ineffectiveness) are recorded in
net income each period and are reported in Gains and Other Expenses, net in the accompanying
Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007,
hedge ineffectiveness recognized in net income was not material.
The Company may enter into instruments that economically hedge certain of its risks, even
though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting under
SFAS No. 133 to such instruments. In these cases, there exists a natural hedging relationship in
which changes in the fair value of the instruments act as an economic offset to changes in the fair
value of the underlying item(s). Changes in the fair value of instruments not designated as cash
flow hedges are recorded in net income throughout the term of the derivative instrument and are
reported in Gains and Other Expenses, net in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of
Operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, net gains of $0.3 million
and $1.0 million and $3.3 million and $1.9 million, respectively, were recognized in earnings
related to instruments not accounted for as cash flow hedges. For more information on the valuation
of these derivative instruments, see Note 16.
16. Fair Value Measurements:
SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid
to transfer a liability
in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. SFAS No. 157
provides a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value
measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of
the measurement date and requires consideration of the Companys creditworthiness when valuing
certain liabilities.
15
Fair Value Hierarchy
The three-level fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements defined by SFAS
No. 157 is as follows:
|
|
|
Level 1 -
|
|
Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets at the measurements date. |
|
|
|
Level 2 -
|
|
Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in
markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value
drivers are observable in active markets at the measurement date and for the anticipated term of the instrument. |
|
|
|
Level 3 -
|
|
Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or
significant value drivers are unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entitys own
assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. |
Fair Value Techniques
The Companys valuation techniques are applied to all of the assets and liabilities carried at
fair value as of January 1, 2008, upon adoption of SFAS No. 157. Where available, the fair values
are based upon quoted prices in active markets. However, if quoted prices are not available, then
the fair values are based upon quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or independently
sourced market parameters, such as credit default swap spreads, yield curves, reported trades,
broker/dealer quotes, interest rates and benchmark securities. For assets and liabilities with a
lack of observable market activity, if any, the fair values are based upon discounted cash flow
methodologies incorporating assumptions that, in managements judgment, reflect the assumptions a
marketplace participant would use. To ensure that financial assets and liabilities are recorded at
fair value, valuation adjustments may be required to reflect either partys creditworthiness and
ability to pay. Where appropriate, these amounts were incorporated into the Companys valuations as
of June 30, 2008, the measurement date.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following table presents the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities
measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2008 (in millions):

Derivatives are recorded in Other Current Assets and Other Non-Current Assets in the accompanying Consolidated
Balance Sheets. |
The Companys adoption of SFAS No. 157 has resulted in changes to the valuation techniques
used by the Company when determining the fair value of its derivative instruments. These
derivatives are primarily valued using estimated future cash flows that are based directly on
observed prices from exchange-traded derivatives and therefore have been classified as Level 2. The
Company also takes into account the counterpartys creditworthiness, or the Companys own
creditworthiness, as appropriate. The calculation of the credit adjustment for derivatives is based
upon observable credit default swap spreads and interpolation between these observable spreads for
interim periods without observable spreads; however, these inputs are insignificant to the fair
value measurement. The effect of adopting these changes to the valuation techniques was not
material.
The majority of the Companys short-term investments are managed by professional investment
advisors. The net asset values are furnished in statements received from the investment advisor
and reflect valuations based upon the respective pricing policies utilized by the investment
advisor. The Company has assessed the classification of the inputs used to value these investments
as Level 2 through examination of pricing policies and significant inputs and through discussions
with investment managers. The fair values of the Companys short-term investments are based on
several observable inputs including, but not limited to, benchmark yields, reported trades,
broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads and benchmark securities. The adoption of SFAS No. 157
resulted in no net changes to the valuations for these securities.

17. Commitments and Contingencies:
Guarantees
On June 22, 2006, Lennox Procurement Company Inc. (Procurement), a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company, entered into a lease agreement with BTMU Capital Corporation (BTMUCC), pursuant
to which BTMUCC is leasing certain property located in Richardson, Texas to Procurement for a term
of seven years (the Lake Park Lease). The leased property consists of an office building of
approximately 192,000 square feet, which includes the Companys corporate headquarters, land and
related improvements.
During the term, the Lake Park Lease requires Procurement to pay base rent in quarterly
installments, payable in arrears. At the end of the term, if Procurement is not in default,
Procurement must elect to do one of the following: (i) purchase the leased property for a net
price of approximately $41.2 million (the Lease Balance); (ii) make a final supplemental payment
to BTMUCC equal to approximately 82% of the Lease Balance and return the leased property to BTMUCC
in good condition; (iii) arrange a sale of the leased property to a third party; or (iv) renew the
Lake Park Lease under mutually agreeable terms. If Procurement elects to arrange a sale of the
leased property to a third party, then Procurement must pay to BTMUCC the amount (if any) by which
the Lease Balance exceeds the net sales proceeds paid by the third party; provided, however, that,
absent certain defaults, such amount cannot exceed approximately 82% of the Lease Balance. If the
net sales proceeds paid by the third party are greater than the Lease Balance, the excess sales
proceeds will be paid to Procurement.
Procurements obligations under the Lake Park Lease and related documents are secured by a
pledge of Procurements interest in the leased property. Procurements obligations under such
documents are also guaranteed by the Company pursuant to a Guaranty, dated as of June 22, 2006, in
favor of BTMUCC.
In the second quarter of 2008, the Company determined that, primarily due to its share
repurchases, it was not in compliance with a financial covenant contained in the Lake Park Lease
that requires it to maintain a specified level of net worth. The Company has been granted a waiver
through September 30, 2008 and is currently evaluating alternatives to address this matter,
including substituting lenders under the lease. If the Company is not in compliance with such
covenant after the expiration of the waiver, the lessor may, among other things, declare the
Company in default, terminate the lease and demand that the Company return the leased property.
However, if the lessor declares a default, the Company has the right to purchase the property for a
purchase price equal to the Lease Balance plus lease breakage costs. Should this occur, it would
not materially affect the Companys liquidity.
Although the Company is not in compliance with this financial covenant, the Lake Park Lease
continues to be accounted for as an operating lease until the lease is either terminated or
modified.
The majority of the Service Experts segments motor vehicle fleet is leased through operating
leases. The lease terms are generally non-cancelable for the first 12-month term and then are
month-to-month, cancelable at the Companys option. While there are residual value guarantees on
these vehicles, the Company has not historically made significant payments to the lessors as the
leases are maintained until the fair value of the assets fully mitigates the Companys obligations
under the lease agreements. As of June 30, 2008, the Company estimates that it will incur an
additional $9.2 million above the contractual obligations on these leases until the fair value of
the leased vehicles fully mitigates the Companys residual value guarantee obligation under the
lease agreements.
Environmental
Applicable environmental laws can potentially impose obligations on the Company to remediate
hazardous substances at the Companys properties, at properties formerly owned or operated by the
Company and at facilities to which the Company has sent or sends waste for treatment or disposal.
The Company is aware of contamination at some facilities; however, the Company does not presently
believe that any future remediation costs at such facilities will be material to the Companys
results of operations. No amounts have been recorded for non-asset retirement
obligation environmental liabilities that are not probable or estimable.
17
Brazil Environmental Reserve
At one site located in Brazil, the Company is currently evaluating the remediation efforts
that may be required under applicable environmental laws related to the release of certain
hazardous materials. The Company currently believes that the release of the hazardous materials
occurred over an extended period of time, including a time when the Company did not own the site.
Extensive investigations have been performed and the Company continues to conduct additional
assessments of the site to help determine the possible remediation activities that may be
conducted. Once the site assessments are completed and the possible remediation activities have
been evaluated, the Company plans to commence remediation efforts, pending any required approvals
by local governmental authorities. The amount and timing of cash payments are reliably determinable
and therefore the Company has recorded its environmental reserves at their present values. The
maximum reasonably possible loss presented in the table below is the amount that could be paid if,
after the site assessments are completed, it is determined that remediation is more costly or local
governmental authorities require more costly remediation activities.

Litigation
The Company is involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to its business. As
previously reported, in January 2003, the Company, along with one of its subsidiaries, Heatcraft
Inc., was named in the following lawsuits in connection with the Companys former heat transfer
operations:
|
|
|
Lynette Brown, et al., vs. Koppers Industries, Inc., Heatcraft Inc., Lennox
International Inc., et al., Circuit Court of Washington County, Civil Action No. CI
2002-479; |
|
|
|
Likisha Booker, et al., vs. Koppers Industries, Inc., Heatcraft Inc., Lennox
International Inc., et al., Circuit Court of Holmes County, Civil Action No.
2002-549; |
18
|
|
|
Walter Crowder, et al., vs. Koppers Industries, Inc., Heatcraft Inc. and Lennox
International Inc., et al., Circuit Court of Leflore County, Civil Action No.
2002-0225; and |
|
|
|
Benobe Beck, et al., vs. Koppers Industries, Inc., Heatcraft Inc. and Lennox
International Inc., et al., Circuit Court of the First Judicial District of Hinds
County, No. 03-000030. |
On behalf of approximately 100 plaintiffs, the lawsuits allege personal injury resulting from
alleged emissions of trichloroethylene, dichloroethylene, and vinyl chloride and other unspecified
emissions from the South Plant in Grenada, Mississippi, previously owned by Heatcraft Inc. Each
plaintiff seeks to recover alleged actual and punitive damages. On Heatcraft Inc.s motion to
transfer venue, two of the four lawsuits (Booker and Crowder) were ordered severed
and transferred to Grenada County by the Mississippi Supreme Court, requiring plaintiffs counsel
to maintain a separate lawsuit for each of the individual plaintiffs named in these suits. To the
Companys knowledge, as of July 15, 2008, plaintiffs counsel has requested the transfer of files
regarding five individual plaintiffs from the Booker case and five individual plaintiffs
from the Crowder case. It is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these
matters or an estimate of any potential loss. Based on present knowledge, management believes that
it is unlikely that any final resolution of these matters will result in a material liability.
18. Share Repurchase Plan:
On July 25, 2007, LII announced that the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan,
pursuant to which the Company was authorized to repurchase up to $500 million of shares of its
common stock through open market purchases (the 2007 Share Repurchase Plan). LII was a party to
a written trading plan under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to
facilitate share repurchases under the 2007 Share Repurchase Plan. Prior to April 1, 2008, LII had
repurchased 10,609,749 shares of common stock for approximately $376.1 million under the 2007 Share
Repurchase Plan, which was completed during the second quarter of 2008. On June 2, 2008, the
Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase plan for
$300 million, pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase shares of its common stock
through open market purchases. In the second quarter of 2008, LII repurchased shares of its common
stock as follows:

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, that are based on information currently available to management as well as
managements assumptions and beliefs. All statements, other than statements of historical fact,
included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q constitute forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including but not limited to
statements identified by the words may, will, should, plan, predict, anticipate,
believe, intend, estimate and expect and similar expressions. Such statements reflect our
current views with respect to future events, based on what we believe are reasonable assumptions;
however, such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties. In addition to the
specific uncertainties discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the risk factors
set forth in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2007, and those set forth in Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors of this report, if any,
may affect our performance and results of operations. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may
differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. We disclaim any intention or
obligation to update or review any forward-looking statements or information, whether as a result
of new information, future events or otherwise.
Overview
We operate in four reportable business segments of the HVACR industry. Our reportable
segments include Residential Heating & Cooling, Commercial Heating & Cooling, Service Experts and
Refrigeration. For more detailed information regarding our reportable segments, see Note 19 in the
Notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Our products and services are sold through a combination of distributors, independent and
company-owned dealer service centers, other installing contractors, wholesalers, manufacturers
representatives and original equipment manufacturers and to national accounts. The demand for our
products and services is seasonal and dependent on the weather. Hotter than normal summers
generate strong demand for replacement air conditioning and refrigeration products and services and
colder than normal winters have the same effect on heating products and services. Conversely,
cooler than normal summers and warmer than normal winters depress HVACR sales and services. In
addition to weather, demand for our products and services is influenced by national and regional
economic and demographic factors, such as interest rates, the availability of financing, regional
population and employment trends, new construction, general economic conditions and consumer
spending habits and confidence.
The principal elements of cost of goods sold in our manufacturing operations are components,
raw materials, labor, factory overhead and estimated costs of warranty expense. In our Service
Experts segment, the principal components of cost of goods sold are equipment, parts and supplies
and labor. The principal raw materials used in our manufacturing processes are steel, copper and
aluminum. Higher prices for these commodities and related components continue to present a
challenge to us and the HVACR industry in general. We partially mitigate the impact of higher
commodity prices through a combination of price increases, commodity contracts, improved production
efficiency and cost reduction initiatives.
We estimate approximately 30% of the sales of our Residential Heating & Cooling segment is for
new construction, with the balance attributable to repair, retrofit and replacement. With the
current downturn in residential new construction activity, we are continuing to see a decline in
the demand for the products and services we sell into this market.
Our fiscal year ends on December 31 and our interim fiscal quarters are each comprised of 13
weeks. For convenience, throughout this Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, the 13-week periods comprising each fiscal quarter are denoted
by the last day of the calendar quarter.
Company Highlights
|
|
|
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $1,002.9 million and were
negatively impacted on a year-over-year basis by lower volumes in the U.S. residential new
construction market and further softening of the commercial market. Foreign currency
translation rates had a favorable impact on net sales in 2008. |
|
|
|
Operational income for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $88.0 million. As a
percentage of net sales, operational income increased to 8.8% in 2008 from 8.7% in 2007. |
22
|
|
|
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $51.2 million. Diluted net
income per share was $0.88 per share in 2008, up from $0.85 per share in 2007. |
|
|
|
Cash provided by operating activities was $22.8 million for the six months ended June
30, 2008, improved from cash used in operating activities of $5.3 million in 2007,
primarily due to favorable working capital changes and the timing of tax payments. |
|
|
|
During the three months ended June 30, 2008, we completed our $500 million share
repurchase program ahead of schedule. On June 2, 2008, we announced the approval of a new
$300 million share repurchase program. |

Second Quarter 2008 Compared to Second Quarter 2007 Consolidated Results
Net Sales
Net sales decreased $38.9 million, or 3.7%, to $1,002.9 million for the three months ended
June 30, 2008 from $1,041.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Declines in unit
volumes more than offset the $33.1 million of favorable impact of foreign currency
exchange rates. Our Residential Heating & Cooling and Service Experts segments experienced
decreases in sales due primarily to the weakened residential new construction market in the U.S.
Our Commercial Heating & Cooling segment experienced a decrease in unit volumes in our domestic and
European operations primarily due to unfavorable economic conditions. Offsetting these decreases
was an increase in sales for our Refrigeration segment that was primarily due to favorable foreign
currency exchange rates.
23
Gross Profit
Gross profit was $287.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $289.1
million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, a decrease of $1.8 million. Gross profit margin
increased to 28.6% for the second quarter of 2008 compared to 27.8% in 2007 primarily due to
favorable product mix, manufacturing efficiencies and price increases.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 0.4%, in 2008
and as a percentage of total net sales increased to 19.5% for the second quarter of 2008 from 19.0%
for the second quarter of 2007. The decrease in SG&A expenses was primarily due to lower
stock-based compensation expenses, a reduction in professional fees and other cost control
measures, which were partially offset by a $6.3 million increase related to foreign currency
exchange rates.
Gains and Other Expenses, Net
Gains and other expenses, net for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 included the

The decrease in realized gains on settled futures contracts not designated as cash flow hedges
was primarily due to increases in commodity prices during the three months ended June 30, 2008 as
compared to the same period in 2007. For more information, see Note 15 in the Notes to our
Consolidated Financial Statements. The increase in other items, net was primarily due to a
favorable catch-up adjustment of $4.5 million related to foreign currency fluctuations on
intercompany loans.
Restructuring Charges
We recognized $7.7 million and $7.6 million in restructuring charges for the second quarter
of 2008 and 2007, respectively. Restructuring charges incurred during the second quarter of 2008
primarily related to manufacturing rationalization activities. We announced plans to transition
production of selected Refrigeration products currently manufactured in Milperra, Australia to a
sister facility in Wuxi, China and incurred $3.0 million in restructuring charges related to this
action. We also announced plans to transition the production of certain Residential Heating &
Cooling products from our Marshalltown, Iowa manufacturing facility to our new manufacturing
operation in Saltillo, Mexico and recorded $1.7 million of restructuring charges in connection with
this activity. We incurred additional restructuring charges of $1.6 million related to the
previously announced closing of our Refrigeration operations in Danville, Illinois and the
consolidation of our Danville manufacturing, support, and warehouse functions into our Tifton,
Georgia and Stone Mountain, Georgia operations. Estimated future restructuring charges related to
these manufacturing rationalization activities are estimated to be $10.0 million at June 30, 2008.
Restructuring charges incurred during the second quarter of 2007 primarily related to the
reorganization of our corporate administrative function and a $6.6 million charge related to the
elimination of the position of chief administrative officer.
Total cash paid for restructuring activities during the second quarter of 2008 was $12.5
million. This amount was primarily composed of severance payments related to the elimination of the
position of chief administrative officer.
24
Results from Equity Method Investments
Investments in affiliates in which we do not exercise control but have significant influence
are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Income from equity method investments
decreased by $0.6 million to $2.9
million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to $3.5 million in 2007. The
decrease is due to the performance of our joint venture in Thailand.
During the three months ended June 30, 2008, we recorded a $2.3 million impairment charge
related to our investment in a joint venture in Thailand. The joint ventures financial performance
was adversely impacted by recent increases in commodity costs, unfavorable currency exchange
fluctuations, and difficulties integrating past acquisitions, which prompted the impairment charge.
Interest Expense, net
Interest expense, net, increased $1.8 million to $3.8 million for the three months ended June
30, 2008 from $2.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in interest
expense was primarily attributable to higher debt balances as the result of borrowing related to
our share repurchases.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $32.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008
compared to $28.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007. The effective tax rate was
39.1% and 32.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Our effective
rates differ from the statutory federal rate of 35% for certain items, such as state and local
taxes, non-deductible expenses, foreign operating losses for which no tax benefits have been
recognized and foreign taxes at rates other than 35%. Our effective rate for the quarter was also
impacted in 2008 by a non-deductible impairment charge and in 2007 by a $3.2 million benefit from a
change in estimated gain from the prior year. We anticipate that our effective rate for the full
year 2008 will be approximately 37%.

The decrease in net sales was due to continuing weakness in the U.S. residential new
construction market. As a result, unit volumes were down in the second quarter of 2008 as compared
to the second quarter of 2007. The decrease related to sales volumes was partially offset by
favorable product mix towards our premium products and slight price increases. Also, above-average
temperatures late in the quarter favorably affected our replacement business, partially offsetting
the softness in our residential new construction business.
Segment profit decreased primarily due to the unfavorable impact of lower unit volumes,
increased commodity costs and higher freight costs, which were partially offset by favorable
product mix, a reduction in warranty expense due to lower expected failure rates and lower expenses
due to cost reduction efforts.

Our domestic operations experienced lower volumes on a year-over-year basis primarily due to
the further softening in our retail national account business as customers deferred new store
openings. These reduced volumes were partially offset by favorable product mix and moderate price
increases. The favorable impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates increased net sales
by $11.9 million.
The reduced segment profit was due primarily to lower sales volumes, increased commodity
costs, higher freight and distribution costs, and planned infrastructure expenditures to support
cost reduction efforts. These were partially offset by favorable product mix, moderate price
increases and reduced manufacturing costs primarily in our domestic operations.

The decrease in net sales was primarily due to the decline in the residential new construction
market resulting from the weakness of the U.S. economy, which was partially offset by slightly
higher residential service and replacement sales. The favorable impact of changes in foreign
currency exchange rates increased net sales by $3.2 million.
The increase in segment profit was primarily due to a favorable shift in mix towards service
and replacement from residential new construction business resulting from above-average
temperatures late in the quarter. Also, lower personnel related expense, advertising and insurance
costs increased segment profit. These increases were partially offset by higher customer contact
center implementation costs and group medical costs.

Net sales increased due to a favorable impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates of
$14.2 million. This favorable impact was supplemented by increases in unit volumes in South
America and Asia and price increases in our domestic operations. Price increases were implemented
as the result of higher commodity and component costs. These favorable items were partially offset
by decreases in unit volumes in our European, Australian and domestic operations.
The increase in segment profit was primarily due to the impact of price increases and
favorable foreign currency exchange rates noted above. These favorable impacts to segment profit
were partially offset by increased commodity costs and unfavorable manufacturing inefficiencies
primarily due to manufacturing rationalization activities at affected locations.
26
Corporate and Other
Corporate and other expenses decreased to $8.7 million in 2008 from $20.1 million in 2007.
The decrease in costs was primarily driven by foreign currency gains, expense reduction in
compliance activities, stock-based and incentive compensation and professional fees, and overall
tight budgetary controls. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was primarily due to an
increase in forfeiture rates and a decrease in the estimated pay-out
percentage on outstanding performance share units in the second quarter of 2008 as compared to
the same period in 2007. A catch-up adjustment of $4.5 million related to foreign currency
fluctuations on intercompany loans also had a favorable impact.
Year-to-Date Through June 30, 2008 Compared to Year-to-Date Through June 30, 2007 Consolidated
Results
Net Sales
Our Residential and Commercial Heating & Cooling and Service Experts segments had decreases in
net sales resulting from lower unit volumes, which were partially offset by favorable product mix
changes. Net sales increased in our Refrigeration segment largely due to favorable changes in
foreign currency exchange rates. The favorable impact of foreign currency translation increased net
sales by $64.5 million.
Gross Profit
Year-to-date gross profit margin increased by 0.8% for 2008 compared to 2007 due to favorable
sales mix changes and greater manufacturing efficiencies. Price increases partially offset
increases in commodity and component costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Year-to-date SG&A expenses were relatively flat at $390.4 million in 2008 compared to $388.4
million in 2007. As a percentage of total net sales, SG&A expenses were 22.0% for 2008 and 21.2%
for 2007. The slight increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to an increase related to foreign
currency exchange rates and higher bad debt expense as weakness in the domestic economy has
impacted collection efforts in certain areas of the business, which were partially offset by lower
stock-based compensation expenses, a reduction in professional fees and cost control measures.
Gains and Other Expenses, Net
Year-to-date gains and other expenses, net, were $7.8 million in 2008 and $4.0 million in 2007
and included the following (in millions):

The decrease in realized gains on settled futures contracts not designated as cash flow hedges
was primarily due to increases in commodity prices during the six months ended June 30, 2008 as
compared to the same period in 2007. For more information see Note 15 in the Notes to our
Consolidated Financial Statements. The increase in other items was primarily due to a favorable
catch-up adjustment of $4.5 million related to foreign currency fluctuations on intercompany loans.
27
Restructuring Charges
We recognized $10.5 million and $9.9 million in year-to-date restructuring charges in 2008 and
2007, respectively. During the first half of 2008, we announced plans to transition production of
selected Refrigeration products currently manufactured in Milperra, Australia to a sister facility
in Wuxi, China and incurred $3.0 million in restructuring charges related to this action. We
incurred additional restructuring charges of $2.9 million related to the previously announced
closing of our Refrigeration operations in Danville, Illinois and the consolidation of our Danville
manufacturing, support, and warehouse functions into our Tifton, Georgia and Stone Mountain,
Georgia operations. We also announced
plans to transition production of certain Residential Heating & Cooling products from our
Marshalltown, Iowa manufacturing facility to our new manufacturing operation in Saltillo, Mexico
and recorded $1.7 million of restructuring charges in connection with this activity. We also
recorded additional restructuring charges of $1.7 million in 2008 related to the previously
announced closure of our Lynwood, California operations and consolidation of our U.S. factory-built
fireplace manufacturing operations in our facility in Union City, Tennessee.
Restructuring charges incurred during the first half of 2007 primarily related to
manufacturing rationalization activities, the reorganization of our corporate administrative
function and the Allied Air Enterprises Consolidation.
Total cash paid for restructuring activities during the first half of 2008 was $16.4 million.
This amount was primarily composed of severance payments related to corporate reorganizations.
Results from Equity Method Investments
Investments in affiliates in which we do not exercise control but have significant influence
are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Income from equity method investments
decreased by $0.2 million to $6.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to
$6.2 million in 2007. The decrease is due to the performance of our joint venture in Thailand.
During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded a $2.3 million impairment
charge related to our investment in a joint venture in Thailand.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net, increased $3.6 million to $6.5 million for the six months ended June
30, 2008 from $2.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in interest
expense was primarily attributable to higher debt balances as the result of increased borrowing
related to our share repurchases.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $36.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008
compared to $33.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The effective tax rate was 38.9%
and 32.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Our effective rates
differ from the statutory federal rate of 35% for certain items, such as state and local taxes,
non-deductible expenses, foreign operating losses for which no tax benefits have been recognized

The decrease in net sales was primarily due to a decrease in unit volumes. Unit volumes were
generally lower across the residential HVAC industry due to softness in the residential new
construction market. The decrease was partially offset by a favorable change in product mix
towards our premium products.
Segment profit decreased primarily due to the unfavorable impact of lower unit volumes, which
were partially offset by favorable product mix, a reduction in warranty expense due to lower

Net sales increased due to a favorable impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates of
$27.8 million. This favorable impact was supplemented by increases in unit volumes in South
America and Asia and price increases in our domestic operations. Price increases were implemented
as the result of higher commodity and component costs. These favorable items were partially offset
by decreases in unit volumes in our European, Australian and domestic operations.
29
The increase in segment profit was primarily due to the impact of price increases and
favorable foreign currency exchange rates noted above. These favorable impacts to segment profit
were partially offset by increased commodity costs and unfavorable manufacturing inefficiencies.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and other expenses decreased to $20.9 million in 2008 from $40.7 million in 2007.
The decrease in costs was primarily driven by foreign currency gains, expense reduction in
compliance activities, stock-based and incentive compensation and professional fees, and overall
tight budgetary controls. The decrease in stock-based compensation expense was primarily due to an
increase in forfeiture rates and a decrease in the estimated pay-out percentage on outstanding
performance share units in the first half of 2008 as compared to the same period in 2007. A portion
of the decrease in Corporate and other expenses was composed of the favorable catch-up adjustment
related to foreign currency in the second quarter.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our working capital and capital expenditure requirements are generally met through internally
generated funds, bank lines of credit and a revolving period asset securitization arrangement.
Working capital needs are generally greater in the first and second quarter due to the seasonal
nature of our business cycle.
As of June 30, 2008, our financial leverage increased compared to June 30, 2007 primarily due
to an increase of $292.0 million in our outstanding debt balances as well as a reduced
stockholders equity balance due to share repurchases. Higher debt was primarily due to an
increase in borrowings to fund the repurchase of approximately 14.2 million shares of our common
stock for $500 million since June 30, 2007 under our share repurchase plan that concluded in the
second quarter.
The following table summarizes our cash activity for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and
2007 (in millions):

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities
During the first six months of 2008, operating activities generated cash of $22.8 million,
compared to a use of $5.3 million in 2007. The favorable comparison of cash from operating
activities is due to a smaller change in use of cash for inventory, accounts receivable, and income
taxes payable in the first half of 2008 versus the prior year. Seasonal increases in inventory and
accounts receivable typically result in a use of cash in the first half of the year. However, the
seasonal growth in inventory of $41.2 million for the first six months of 2008 was down when
compared to the $72.1 million of growth in the same period in 2007 due to our planned adjustment to
the preseason cooling equipment production levels to reflect the continued decline in the
residential markets. The seasonal growth in accounts receivable of $112.0 million for the first
six months of 2008 was down when compared to the $129.0 million of growth in the same period in
2007 primarily due to increased focus on collection activities and, to a lesser extent, lower net
sales. Changes in income taxes payable resulted in a smaller use of cash in 2008 as compared to
2007 due to a larger payment of taxes in the first quarter of 2007 versus the first quarter of
2008. These changes were partially offset by a smaller increase in accounts payable of $87.4
million during the first half of 2008 as compared to $105.5 million in the same period in 2007,
primarily due to lower production levels during the first six months to better align inventory
growth with sales expectations. Additionally, increased payments for restructuring activities of
$11.4 million served to partially offset the sources of cash.
Net Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $28.4 million for the first half of 2008 compared to
$48.6 million in 2007. This decrease was primarily driven by the net proceeds from sales and
maturities of short-term investments of $27.9 million in the first half of 2008 compared to $1.8
million in the same period in 2007. Capital expenditures of $21.7 million and $25.0 million in 2008
and 2007, respectively, were primarily for purchases of production equipment in the manufacturing
plants in our Residential Heating & Cooling and Commercial Heating & Cooling segments.
30
Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities
During the first half of 2008, net cash used by financing activities was $46.1 million
compared to $24.6 million provided in 2007. We paid a total of $24.6 million in dividends on our
common stock in the six months ended June 30, 2008, which is a slight decrease from the same period
in 2007. Net short-term and revolving long-term borrowings totaled approximately $261.8 million in
the first six months of 2008 as compared to $68.9 million for the same period in 2007. During the
six months ended June 30, 2008, we used approximately $307.0 million to repurchase 8,304,643 shares
of our common stock under our share repurchase plan and 291,623 shares of our common stock to
satisfy tax withholding obligations in connection with the exercise of stock appreciation rights
and the distribution of shares of our common stock pursuant to vested performance share units.

Credit Agreements
On October 12, 2007, we entered into the Third Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility
Agreement (the Credit Agreement), which contains a $650.0 million domestic revolving credit
facility. The Credit Agreement replaced our previous domestic revolving credit facility, the
Second Amended and Restated Credit Facility Agreement, dated as of July 8, 2005. During the fourth
quarter of 2007, we made a $25.0 million prepayment on a domestic promissory note to facilitate the
amendment of the Credit Agreement, resulting in a make-whole payment of $0.2 million, which was
recognized as interest expense. During the second quarter of 2008, we made a final $25.0 million
payment on the domestic promissory note.
As of June 30, 2008, we had outstanding borrowings of $413.0 million under the $650.0 million
domestic revolving credit facility and $113.6 million was committed to standby letters of credit.
All of the remaining $123.4 million was available for future borrowings after consideration of
covenant limitations. The facility matures in October 2012.
31
The domestic revolving credit facility includes a subfacility for swingline loans of up to $50
million and provides for the issuance of letters of credit for the full amount of the credit
facility. The revolving loans bear interest at either (i) the Eurodollar rate plus a margin of
between 0.5% and 1% that is based on our Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio (as defined in the Credit
Agreement) or (ii) the higher of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% and (b) the prime rate set by
Bank of America, N.A. We may prepay the revolving loans at any time without premium or penalty,
other than customary breakage costs in the case of Eurodollar loans. We will pay a facility fee in
the range of 0.125% to 0.25% based on our
Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio. We will also pay a letter of credit fee in the range of 0.5% to
1% based on our Debt to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio, as well as an additional issuance fee of 0.125% for
letters of credit issued.
The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants relating to leverage and interest coverage.
Other covenants contained in the Credit Agreement restrict, among other things, mergers, asset
dispositions, guarantees, debt, liens, acquisitions, investments, affiliate transactions and our
ability to make restricted payments.
The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default. If any event of default occurs and
is continuing, lenders with a majority of the aggregate commitments may require the administrative
agent to terminate our right to borrow under the Credit Agreement and accelerate amounts due under
the Credit Agreement (except for a bankruptcy event of default, in which case such amounts will
automatically become due and payable and the lenders commitments will automatically terminate).
In addition to the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement outlined above, our
domestic promissory notes contain certain financial covenant restrictions. As of June 30, 2008, we
believe we were in compliance with all covenant requirements. Our revolving credit facility and
promissory notes are guaranteed by our material subsidiaries.
We have additional borrowing capacity through several foreign facilities governed by
agreements between the company and a syndicate of banks, used primarily to finance the seasonal
borrowing needs of our foreign subsidiaries. We had $11.0 million and $5.8 million of obligations
outstanding through our foreign subsidiaries as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007,
respectively.
Under a revolving period asset securitization arrangement, we are eligible to transfer
beneficial interests in a portion of our trade accounts receivable to third parties in exchange for
cash. Our continued involvement in the transferred assets is limited to servicing. These transfers
are accounted for as sales rather than secured borrowings. The fair values assigned to the
retained and transferred interests are based primarily on the receivables carrying value given the
short term to maturity and low credit risk. As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we had not
sold any beneficial interests in accounts receivable. The maximum amount available under the
securitization arrangement depends on the amount of qualifying accounts receivable. The maximum
amount available was $125.0 million and $102.7 million as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007,
respectively.
Cash and Short-Term Investments
We consider all highly liquid temporary investments with original maturity dates of three
months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents of $95.3 million and $145.5
million as of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively, consisted of cash, overnight
repurchase agreements and investment grade securities and are stated at cost, which approximates
fair value.
As of June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, $24.9 million and $20.2 million, respectively, of
cash and cash equivalents were restricted primarily due to routine lockbox collections and letters
of credit issued with respect to the operations of our captive insurance subsidiary, which expire
on December 31, 2008. These letter of credit restrictions can be transferred to our revolving
lines of credit as needed.
Share Repurchases and Available Liquidity
On July 25, 2007, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan,
pursuant to which we were authorized to repurchase up to $500 million of shares of our common stock
through open market purchases (the 2007 Share Repurchase Plan). Based on the closing price of our
common stock on July 24, 2007, a $500 million repurchase represented over 20% of our market
capitalization. The repurchases under the 2007 Share Repurchase Plan were fully executed by the
end of the second quarter of 2008.
On June 2, 2008, we announced that our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase
plan, pursuant to which we are authorized to repurchase up to $300 million of shares of our common
stock through open market purchases (the 2008 Share Repurchase Plan).
32
We periodically review our capital structure, including our primary bank facility, to ensure
that it has adequate liquidity. We believe that cash flows from operations, as well as available
borrowings under our revolving credit facility and other existing sources of funding, will be
sufficient to fund our operations for the foreseeable future and share repurchases during the term
of the 2008 Share Repurchase Plan.
In the second quarter of 2008, we determined that, primarily due to our share repurchases, we
were not in compliance with a financial covenant contained in the lease for our corporate
headquarters that requires us to maintain a specified level of net worth. We have been granted a
waiver through September 30, 2008 and are currently evaluating alternatives to address this matter,
including substituting lenders under the lease. If we are not in compliance with such covenant
after the expiration of the waiver, the lessor may, among other things, declare us in default,
terminate the lease and demand that we return the leased property. However, if the lessor declares
a default, we have the right to purchase the property for a purchase price equal to the lease
balance of approximately $41.2 million plus lease breakage costs. Should this occur, it would not
materially affect our liquidity.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In addition to the revolving and term loans described above, we utilize the following
financing arrangements in the course of funding our operations:
|
|
|
We are eligible to transfer beneficial interests in a portion of our trade
accounts receivable to third parties in exchange for cash through the use of a
revolving period asset securitization arrangement. Our continued involvement in the
transferred assets is limited to servicing. These transfers are accounted for as
sales rather than secured borrowings and are reported as a reduction of Accounts and
Notes Receivable, Net in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2008 and
December 31, 2007, respectively, we had not sold any such accounts receivable. |
|
|
|
|
We also lease real estate and machinery and equipment pursuant to leases that, in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, are not capitalized on the
balance sheet, including high-turnover equipment such as autos and service vehicles
and short-lived equipment such as personal computers. |
Fair Value Measurements
Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
generally accepted accounting principles, clarifies the definition of fair value within that
framework, and expands disclosures about the use of fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. However, in February 2008, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, Effective
Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (FSP No. 157-2), which deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157
for one year for non-financial assets and liabilities, except for certain items that are recognized
or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). We
are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 157 on our Consolidated Financial Statements for
items within the scope of FSP No. 157-2, which will become effective on January 1, 2009.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The three-level fair value hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements defined by SFAS
No. 157 is as follows:
|
|
|
Level 1 -
|
|
Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets at the measurement date. |
|
|
|
Level 2 -
|
|
Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in
markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value
drivers are observable in active markets at the measurement date and for the anticipated term of the instrument. |
|
|
|
Level 3 -
|
|
Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or
significant value drivers are unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entitys own
assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. |
33
Fair Value Techniques
Our valuation techniques are applied to all of the assets and liabilities carried at fair
value as of January 1, 2008, upon adoption of SFAS No. 157. Where available, the fair values are
based upon quoted prices in active markets. However, if quoted prices are not available, then the
fair values are based upon quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities or independently sourced market parameters, such as credit default swap spreads,
yield curves, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, interest rates and benchmark securities. For
assets and liabilities with a lack of observable market activity, if any, the fair values are based
upon discounted cash flow methodologies incorporating assumptions that, in our judgment, reflect
the assumptions a marketplace participant would use. To ensure that financial assets and
liabilities are recorded at fair value, valuation adjustments may be required to reflect either
partys creditworthiness and ability to pay. Where appropriate, these amounts were incorporated
into our valuations as of June 30, 2008, the measurement date.
Our adoption of SFAS No. 157 has resulted in changes to the valuation techniques used when
determining the fair value of our derivative instruments. These derivatives are primarily valued
using estimated future cash flows that are based directly on observed prices from exchange-traded
derivatives and therefore have been classified as Level 2. We also take into account the
counterpartys creditworthiness, or our own creditworthiness, as appropriate. The calculation of
the credit adjustment for derivatives is based upon observable credit default swap spreads and
interpolation between these observable spreads for interim periods without observable spreads;
however, these inputs are insignificant to the fair value measurement. The effect of adopting these
changes to the valuation techniques was not material.
The majority of our short-term investments are managed by professional investment advisors.
The net asset values are furnished in statements received from the investment advisor and reflect
valuations based upon the respective pricing policies utilized by the investment advisor. We have
assessed the classification of the inputs used to value these investments as Level 2 through
examination of pricing policies and significant inputs and through discussions with investment
managers. The fair values of our short-term investments are based on several observable inputs
including, but not limited to, benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer
spreads and benchmark securities. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 resulted in no net changes to the
valuations for these securities.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Our results of operations can be affected by changes in exchange rates. Net sales and
expenses in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes
based on the average exchange rate for the period. Net sales from outside the United States
represented 28.7% and 24.8% and 29.4% and 25.1% of total net sales for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Historically, foreign currency translation gains or
losses have not had a material effect on our overall operations. As of June 30, 2008, the impact
to net income of a 10% change in exchange rates is estimated to be approximately $2.7 million on an
annual basis.
We enter into commodity futures contracts to stabilize prices expected to be paid for raw
materials and parts containing high copper and aluminum content. These contracts are for
quantities equal to or less than quantities expected to be consumed in future production. As of
June 30, 2008, we had metal futures contracts maturing at various dates through October 2009 with a
fair value of an asset of $10.5 million. The impact of a 10% change in commodity prices would have
a significant impact on our results from operations on an annual basis, absent any other
contravening actions.
Our results of operations can be affected by changes in interest rates due to variable rates
of interest on our revolving credit facilities. A 100 basis point change in interest rates would
impact our results of operations by approximately $2.5 million.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively), of the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on
that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2008 in alerting them in a timely
manner to material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit to
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended June 30, 2008, there were no changes in our internal control over
financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
34
