AUTOMATION & SPECIALTY BUSINESS OF FORTIVE CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. BUSINESS OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying combined condensed financial statements present the historical financial position, results of operations, changes in Fortive Corporations (Fortive or Parent) equity and cash flows of the Automation & Specialty platform, excluding Fortives Hengstler and Dynapar businesses (the A&S Business or the Company) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for the preparation of carved-out combined financial statements. The Hengstler and Dynapar businesses are not included in the accompanying combined condensed financial statements as they are excluded from the proposed transaction and will remain part of Fortive. The A&S Business had operated as part of Danaher Corporations (Danaher or the Former Parent) Industrial Technologies segment prior to the separation of Fortive from Danaher on July 2, 2016 (the Danaher Separation) and, following the Danaher Separation, as part of the Automation & Specialty platform within Fortives Industrial Technologies segment.
The A&S Business consists of certain operating units of Parent that are recognized leaders in attractive markets globally. The A&S Business provides a wide range of electromechanical and electronic motion control products and mechanical components as well as supplemental braking systems for commercial vehicles. The automation products are sold in various precision motion markets, such as the markets for packaging equipment, medical equipment, metal forming equipment, robotics and food and beverage processing applications. The A&S Business is also a leading worldwide supplier of supplemental braking systems for commercial vehicles. The A&S Businesss research and development, manufacturing, sales, distribution, service and administrative facilities are located across North America, Asia Pacific, Europe and Latin America.
On March 7, 2018, Fortive announced that it and Stevens Holding Company, Inc. (Newco), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fortive, had entered into definitive agreements with Altra Industrial Motion Corp., a Delaware corporation (Altra), and McHale Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Altra (Merger Sub), for a transaction (collectively, the Transactions) pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions of certain definitive agreements, Fortive will transfer certain assets and liabilities constituting a portion of the A&S Business to Newco or one or more subsidiaries of Fortive, and will cause any applicable subsidiaries of Fortive to convey to Fortive or its designated subsidiary (other than Newco or any of Newcos subsidiaries) certain excluded assets and excluded liabilities. Immediately thereafter, Fortive will contribute all equity interests in each such subsidiary of Fortive holding assets and liabilities constituting the A&S Business to Newco in exchange for (i) a number of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share of Newco (the Newco Common Stock), (ii) securities representing indebtedness of Newco in an aggregate principal amount determined pursuant to such definitive agreements, and (iii) cash dividend in an aggregate amount determined pursuant to such definitive agreements. In addition, as part of the Transactions, Fortive will distribute to its stockholders all of the issued and outstanding shares of Newco Common Stock held by Fortive, at Fortives option, by way of an exchange offer or a pro rata dividend, or a combination thereof (the Distribution), followed by merger of Merger Sub with and into Newco (the Merger), with Newco surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altra and with the issued and outstanding shares of Newco Common Stock converted in the Merger into shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of Altra. In addition, as part of the Transactions, Fortive will transfer certain non-U.S. assets, liabilities and entities of the A&S Business to certain subsidiaries of Altra, and the Altra subsidiaries will assume substantially all of the liabilities associated with the transferred assets. Upon completion of the Merger, holders of Fortives common stock participating in the Distribution are expected to own in the aggregate approximately 54% of the outstanding shares of Altra common stock on a fully-diluted basis immediately following the Merger. The Transactions are expected to be completed in 2018. Altra and Fortive anticipate that certain direct sales of certain non-U.S. assets, liabilities and entities of the A&S Business to certain subsidiaries of Altra will be completed after the closing date of the Merger due to regulatory and other delays in certain jurisdictions outside the United States.
6
The Transactions remain subject to the approval of the issuance of shares of Altra common stock in the Merger by Altras stockholders and the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals and the absence of a Material Adverse Effect with respect to either the A&S Business or Altra.
The A&S Business has historically operated as part of Fortive and not as a stand-alone company and has no separate legal status or existence. The financial statements have been derived from Fortives historical accounting records and are presented on a carved-out basis. All revenues and costs as well as assets and liabilities directly associated with the A&S Businesss activity are included as a component of the financial statements. The financial statements also include allocations of certain general, administrative, sales and marketing expenses and cost of sales from Fortives corporate office and from other Fortive businesses to the A&S Business and allocations of related assets, liabilities, and Parents investment, as applicable. The allocations have been determined on a reasonable basis; however, the amounts are not necessarily representative of the amounts that would have been reflected in the financial statements had the A&S Business been an entity that operated independently of Fortive. Related party allocations are discussed further in Note 8.
As part of Fortive, the A&S Business is dependent upon Fortive for all of its working capital and financing requirements as Fortive uses a centralized approach to cash management and financing of its operations. Financial transactions relating to the A&S Business are accounted for through the Parent investment account of the A&S Business. Accordingly, none of Fortives cash, cash equivalents or debt at the corporate level has been included in the A&S Business in the Combined Condensed Balance Sheets. The impact of foreign currency exchange rates on the cash that the A&S Business had access to during the periods presented is reflected in the Combined Condensed Statements of Cash Flows.
Net Parent investment, which includes retained earnings, represents Fortives interest in the recorded net assets of the A&S Business. All significant transactions between the A&S Business and Fortive have been included in the accompanying combined condensed financial statements. Transactions with Fortive are reflected in the accompanying Combined Condensed Statements of Changes in Parents Equity as Net transfers to parent and in the accompanying Combined Condensed Balance Sheets within Net Parent investment.
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between the operations comprising the A&S Business have been eliminated in the accompanying financial statements.
The accompanying financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to fairly present the A&S Businesss financial position as of March 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, and its results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 30, 2018 and March 31, 2017.

Subsequent EventsThe A&S Business has evaluated subsequent events for recording or disclosure in these financial statements through June 21, 2018, the date the financial statements will be available to be issued.
Recently Issued Accounting StandardsIn February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which will require, among other items, lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for most leases. The standard also requires disclosures by lessees and lessors about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under the current standard. This standard is effective for the A&S Business beginning January 1, 2019 (with early adoption permitted) using a modified retrospective transition approach and provides for certain practical expedients. In September 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605),
8
Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), Leases (Topic 840), and Leases (Topic 842), which provided additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASUs. The A&S Business is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial statements.

The A&S Business has not identified any triggering events which would have indicated a potential impairment of goodwill in the three months ended March 30, 2018.
NOTE 3. SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS
As of March 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the A&S Business had short-term borrowings outstanding of $3,666,000 and $3,950,000 under its general credit agreement with Citibank A.S. (the Credit Agreement).
The A&S Business recorded interest expense of $156,000 and $98,000 during the three months ended March 30, 2018 and March 31, 2017, respectively, in connection with the Credit Agreement.
NOTE 4. REVENUE
On January 1, 2018, the A&S Business adopted ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the A&S Businesss historic accounting policy under ASC Topic 605 Revenue Recognition. The A&S Business recorded an immaterial transition adjustment to opening net Parent investment as of January 1, 2018 due to the cumulative impact of adopting Topic 606. The impact to revenues as a result of applying Topic 606 for the quarter ended March 30, 2018 was immaterial.
The A&S Businesss significant accounting policies are detailed in Note 2 of the annual audited combined financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus. Significant changes to the accounting policies as a result of adopting Topic 606 are discussed below:
Revenue RecognitionThe A&S Business derives revenues primarily from the sale of products. Revenue is recognized when control of promised products are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the A&S Business expects to be entitled to in an exchange for those products. For revenue related to a product to qualify for recognition, the A&S Business must have an enforceable contract with a customer that defines the products to be transferred and the payment terms related to those products. Further, collection of substantially all consideration for the products transferred must be probable based on the customers intent and ability to pay the promised consideration. Judgment is applied in determining the customers ability and intention to pay, which is based on a combination of financial and qualitative factors, including the customers financial condition, collateral, debt-servicing ability, past payment experience and credit bureau information.
Customer allowances and rebates, consisting primarily of volume discounts and other short-term incentive programs, are considered in determining the transaction price for the contract; these allowances and rebates are reflected as a reduction in the contract transaction price. Significant judgment is exercised in determining product returns, customer allowances and rebates, and are estimated based on historical experience and known trends.
9
Most of the A&S Businesss sales contracts contain standard terms and conditions. Contracts are evaluated to identify distinct products promised in the contract (performance obligations). Sometimes this evaluation involves judgment to determine whether the products are highly dependent on or highly interrelated with one another, or whether such products significantly modify or customize one another. The A&S Business allocates the contract transaction price to each performance obligation using the observable price that the product sells for separately in similar circumstances and to similar customers, and/or a residual approach when the observable selling price of a product is not known and is either highly variable or uncertain. Allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation sometimes requires significant judgment.
The principal terms of sale for the A&S Business are FOB Shipping Point, or equivalent, and, as such, the A&S Business primarily records revenue upon shipment as performance obligations are satisfied at that time. The A&S Business evaluates contracts with delivery terms other than FOB Shipping Point and recognizes revenue when performance obligations have been satisfied. If any significant obligation to the customer with respect to a sales transaction remains to be fulfilled following shipment (typically installation or acceptance by the customer), revenue recognition is deferred until such obligations have been fulfilled. Further, revenue related to separately priced product maintenance agreements is deferred when appropriate and recognized as revenue over the term of the agreement.
Contract AssetsIn certain circumstances, the A&S Business records contract assets which include unbilled amounts typically resulting from sales under contracts when revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer, and right to payment is not subject only to the passage of time. These contract assets are immaterial.
Deferred sales commissions are generally not capitalized as the amortization period is one year or less, and the A&S Business elected to use the practical expedient to expense these sales commissions as incurred. As of March 30, 2018, the A&S Business did not have any deferred sales commissions with amortization periods longer than one year.
During the first three months of 2018, the A&S Business did not recognize any impairment losses on its contract assets.
Contract LiabilitiesThe A&S Businesss contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue generally related to installation and product maintenance agreements, where in most cases up-front payments have been received and revenue recognized over the support term. The A&S Business classifies deferred revenue as current or noncurrent based on the timing of when it expects to recognize revenue. The noncurrent portion of deferred revenue is included in other long-term liabilities in the combined condensed balance sheets.
The A&S Businesss contract liabilities consisted of the following ($ in thousands):
As of | ||||||||
March 30, 2018 | December 31, 2017 | |||||||
Deferred revenue - current |
$ | 2,957 | $ | 2,000 | ||||

|
|
|
|
|||||
Total contract liabilities |
$ | 3,111 | $ | 2,157 | ||||
|
|
|
|
The increase in the A&S Businesss contract liabilities from December 31, 2017 to March 30, 2018 was primarily due to the timing and mix of product sales. In the first three months of 2018, the A&S Business recognized $141,000 of revenue related to its contract liabilities at January 1, 2018.
Remaining Performance ObligationsThe remaining performance obligations represent the transaction price of firm, noncancelable orders, with expected delivery dates to customers greater than one year from March 30, 2018, for which work has not been performed. The A&S Business has excluded performance obligations with an
10
original expected duration of one year or less from the amounts below. The aggregate performance obligations as of March 30, 2018 are $6,221,000, the majority of which are related to contracts to sell products. Approximately 25 percent of the remaining performance obligations will be fulfilled within the next four years with the remaining 75 percent expected to be fulfilled thereafter.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The A&S Business disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers by geographic location, major product group and end market as it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of the A&S Businesss revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Disaggregation of revenue for the three months ended March 30, 2018 and March 31, 2017 is presented as follows ($ in thousands):

On January 1, 2018, the A&S Business retrospectively adopted ASU No. 2017-07, CompensationRetirement Benefits (Topic 715). Accordingly, the A&S Business has included all components of net periodic pension costs, with the exception of service costs, in other non-operating expenses as a component of interest expense and other in the accompanying Combined Condensed Statements of Earnings. Service costs continue to be included in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying Combined Condensed Statements of Earnings according to the classification of the participants compensation. This reclassification of prior year pension cost decreased operating income by $29,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
Employer Contributions
During 2018, Fortives cash contribution requirements for the A&S Businesss U.S other postretirement employee benefit plans and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans are expected to be approximately $453,000 and $497,000, respectively. The actual amounts to be contributed depend upon, among other things, legal requirements, underlying asset returns, the plans funded status, the anticipated tax deductibility of the contribution, local practices, market conditions, interest rates and other factors.
NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES
The A&S Businesss effective tax rate for the three months ended March 30, 2018 was 17%, as compared to 24% for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The year-over-year decrease was due primarily to favorable impacts in 2018 resulting from a lower statutory tax rate in the United States as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), the impact of favorable adjustments to the provisional estimates recorded in 2017 related to the TCJA, as well as other federal and international tax benefits.
The A&S Businesss effective tax rates for 2018 and 2017 differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% and 35%, respectively, due primarily to earnings outside the United States that are indefinitely reinvested and taxed at rates lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate, the impact of credits and deductions provided by law, and the
12
effect of favorable adjustments to the provisional estimates recorded in 2017 related to the TCJA, as permitted under SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (SAB 118). These provisional estimates decreased income tax expense by $1,147,000 during the three months ended March 30, 2018. The A&S Business will continue to evaluate the effects of the TCJA on the 2017 provisional estimates through the end of the SAB 118 allowable measurement period. Refer to Note 10 of the A&S Businesss audited annual combined financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus for further details, including disclosures pursuant to SAB 118 interpretive guidance and provisional estimates for all TCJA effects.
NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
For a description of the A&S Businesss litigation and contingencies, refer to Note 12 of the A&S Businesss annual audited combined financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.
The A&S Business generally accrues estimated warranty costs at the time of sale. In general, manufactured products are warranted against defects in material and workmanship when properly used for their intended purpose, installed correctly, and appropriately maintained. Warranty period terms depend on the nature of the product and range from ninety days up to five years. The amount of the accrued warranty liability is determined based on historical information such as past experience, product failure rates or number of units repaired, estimated cost of material and labor, and in certain instances estimated property damage. The accrued warranty liability is reviewed on a quarterly basis and may be adjusted as additional information regarding expected warranty costs becomes known.

NOTE 8. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Allocations of Expenses Prior to the Transactions
The A&S Business has historically operated as part of Fortive and not as a stand-alone company. Accordingly, certain shared costs have been allocated to the A&S Business and are reflected as expenses in these financial statements. Management considers the allocation methodologies used to be reasonable and appropriate reflections of the related expenses attributable to the A&S Business for purposes of the carved-out financial statements; however, the expenses reflected in these financial statements may not be indicative of the actual expenses that would have been incurred during the periods presented if the A&S Business had operated as a separate stand-alone entity. In addition, the expenses reflected in the financial statements may not be indicative of expenses that will be incurred in the future by the A&S Business.
Corporate Expenses
Certain corporate overhead and other shared expenses incurred by Fortive and its subsidiaries have been allocated to the A&S Business and are reflected in the Combined Condensed Statements of Earnings. These amounts include, but are not limited to, items such as general management and executive oversight, costs to support Fortive information technology infrastructure, facilities, compliance, human resources, marketing and legal functions and financial management and transaction processing including public company reporting, consolidated tax filings and tax planning, Fortive benefit plan administration, risk management and consolidated treasury services, certain employee benefits and incentives, and stock-based compensation administration. These
13
costs are allocated using methodologies that management believes are reasonable for the item being allocated. Allocation methodologies include the A&S Businesss relative share of revenues, headcount, or functional spend as a percentage of the total.
Insurance Programs Administered by Fortive
In addition to the corporate allocations noted above, the A&S Business was allocated expenses related to certain insurance programs Fortive administers on behalf of the A&S Business, including automobile liability, workers compensation, general liability, product liability, directors and officers liability, cargo, and property insurance. These amounts are allocated using various methodologies, as described below.
Included within the insurance cost allocation are allocations related to programs for which Fortive is self-insured up to a certain amount. For the self-insured component, costs are allocated to the A&S Business based on incurred claims of the A&S Business. Fortive has premium based policies which cover amounts in excess of the self-insured retentions. The A&S Business is allocated a portion of the total insurance cost incurred by Fortive based on its pro-rata portion of Fortives total underlying exposure base. An estimated liability relating to the A&S Businesss known and incurred but not reported claims has been allocated to the A&S Business and reflected on the accompanying Combined Condensed Balance Sheets.
Medical Insurance Programs Administered by Fortive
In addition to the corporate allocations noted above, the A&S Business was allocated expenses related to the medical insurance programs Fortive administers on behalf of the A&S Business. These amounts were allocated using actual medical claims incurred during the period for the associated employees attributable to the A&S Business.
Deferred Compensation Program Administered by Fortive
Certain employees of the A&S Business participate in Fortives nonqualified deferred compensation programs that permit officers, directors and certain management employees to defer a portion of their compensation, on a pre-tax basis, until their termination of employment. Participants may choose among alternative earning rates for the amounts they defer, which are primarily based on investment options within Fortives 401(k) program (except that the earnings rates for amounts contributed unilaterally by the A&S Business are entirely based on changes in the value of Fortives common stock). All amounts deferred under this plan are unfunded, unsecured obligations of the A&S Business.
The amounts of related party expenses allocated to the A&S Business from Fortive and its subsidiaries for the three months ended March 30, 2018 and March 31, 2017, were as follows ($ in thousands):
