PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts

1. Management representation
In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2013, the results of operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 and cash flows for the nine months then ended. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K and previously filed fiscal 2013 Form 10-Q's. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events that have occurred through the date these financial statements were issued. No subsequent events have occurred that required adjustment to or disclosure in these financial statements.

2. New accounting pronouncements
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new accounting guidance requiring an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) by component. For items reclassified out of AOCI in their entirety, the disclosure of the income statement line where those items are reflected is also required. Cross-reference to disclosures providing additional information is required for other items not reclassified in their entirety. The guidance does not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income. The guidance, which must be presented prospectively, is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012.


3. Product warranty
In the ordinary course of business, the Company warrants its products against defects in design, materials and workmanship over various time periods. The warranty accrual as of March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012 is immaterial to the financial position of the Company and the change in the accrual for the current quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 is immaterial to the Company’s results of operations and cash flows.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, 345,779 and 74,554 common shares subject to equity-based awards, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of their exercise would be anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, 1,160,648 and 764,508 common shares subject to equity-based awards, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the effect of their exercise would be anti-dilutive.

5. Share repurchase program
The Company has a program to repurchase its common shares. Under the program, the Company is authorized to repurchase an amount of common shares each fiscal year equal to the greater of 7.5 million shares or five percent of the shares outstanding as of the end of the prior fiscal year. Repurchases are funded primarily from operating cash flows and commercial paper borrowings, and the shares are initially held as treasury stock. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, the Company repurchased 529,000 shares at an average price, including commissions, of $92.90 per share. Fiscal year-to-date, the Company repurchased 2,460,762 shares at an average price, including commissions, of $83.84 per share.

Accounts receivable, trade are initially recorded at their net collectible amount and are generally recorded at the time the revenue from the sales transaction is recorded. Receivables are written off to bad debt primarily when, in the judgment of the Company, the receivable is deemed to be uncollectible due to the insolvency of the debtor.

The charges primarily consist of severance costs related to plant closures as well as general work force reductions implemented by various operating units throughout the world. In addition, $1,918 of severance costs for 98 people have been recognized in connection with the Company's divestiture of its Turkey refrigeration components business and is reflected in the other expense caption in the Business Segment Information for the first nine months of fiscal 2013. The realignment charges for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2012 also include charges related to enhanced retirement benefits. The Company believes the realignment actions will positively impact future results of operations but will not have a material effect on liquidity and sources and uses of capital.

Acquisitions represent the original goodwill allocation, purchase price adjustments, and final adjustments to the purchase price allocation for the acquisitions during the measurement period subsequent to the applicable acquisition dates. The Company’s previously reported results of operations and financial position would not be materially different had the goodwill adjustments recorded during the first nine months of fiscal 2013 been reflected in the same reporting period in which the initial purchase price allocations for those acquisitions were made.
Divestitures represent goodwill associated with businesses divested during the first nine months of fiscal 2013 as more fully discussed in Note 13.
Intangible assets are amortized on the straight-line method over their legal or estimated useful lives. The following summarizes the gross carrying value and accumulated amortization for each major category of intangible assets:

Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the undiscounted net cash flows to be generated by their use over their expected useful lives and eventual disposition may be less than their net carrying value. No such events or circumstances occurred during the nine months ended March 31, 2013.

11. Income taxes
As of March 31, 2013, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $109,292. The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate was $64,136. If recognized, a significant portion of the gross unrecognized tax benefits would be offset against an asset currently recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The accrued interest related to the gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluded from the amounts above, was $2,560.
The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and in various foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. The Company is no longer subject to examinations of its federal income tax returns by the United States Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years through 2010. All significant state, local and foreign tax returns have been examined for fiscal years through 2003. The Company does not anticipate that the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change due to the settlement of examinations and the expiration of statute of limitations within the next twelve months.

12. Financial instruments and fair value measurement
The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, long-term investments, and accounts receivable as well as obligations under accounts payable, trade, notes payable and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, trade and notes payable approximate fair value. The carrying value of long-term debt (excluding capital leases) and estimated fair value of long-term debt (excluding capital leases) are as follows:
 
 
March 31,
2013
 
June 30,
2012
Carrying value of long-term debt (excluding capital leases)

$
1,728,983

Estimated fair value of long-term debt (excluding capital leases)
 
1,766,208

 
2,005,887

The fair value of long-term debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
The Company utilizes derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, costless collar contracts, cross-currency swap contracts and certain foreign denominated debt designated as net investment hedges, to manage foreign currency transaction and translation risk. The derivative financial instrument contracts are with major investment grade financial institutions and the Company does not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the counterparties. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
The Company’s Euro bonds and Japanese Yen credit facility have each been designated as a hedge of the Company’s net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries. The translation of the Euro bonds and Japanese Yen credit facility into U.S. dollars is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and remains there until the underlying net investment is sold or substantially liquidated.
Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Derivatives consist of forward exchange, costless collar and cross-currency swap contracts the fair value of which is calculated using market observable inputs including both spot and forward prices for the same underlying currencies. The fair value of the cross-currency swap contracts is calculated using a present value cash flow model that has been adjusted to reflect the credit risk of either the Company or the counterparty.
The following summarizes the location and fair value of derivative financial instruments reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012:

12. Financial instruments and fair value measurement, cont'd

The fair values at March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012 are classified within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. There are no other financial assets or financial liabilities that are marked to market on a recurring basis. Fair values are transferred between levels of the fair value hierarchy when facts and circumstances indicate that a change in the method of estimating the fair value of a financial asset or financial liability is warranted.
Gains or losses on derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value through the cost of sales caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Gains or losses on derivatives that are hedges are adjusted to fair value through accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the hedged item is recognized in earnings.
The cross-currency swap contracts have been designated as hedging instruments. The costless collar contracts and forward exchange contracts have not been designated as hedging instruments and are considered to be economic hedges of forecasted transactions.
Gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments that were recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Income are as follows:

13. Acquisitions and divestitures

Acquisitions - During the first nine months of fiscal 2013, the Company completed eight acquisitions whose aggregate sales for their most recent fiscal year prior to acquisition were $484 million. Total purchase price for the eight acquisitions was approximately $621 million in cash and $114 million in assumed debt.

Divestitures - During the first nine months of fiscal 2013, the Company divested the automotive businesses of its Mobile Climate Systems division and its Turkey refrigeration components business. Both of these businesses were part of the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment and had combined revenues of approximately $158 million for their most recent fiscal year. The Company recorded a net pre-tax gain in the first nine months of fiscal 2013 of approximately $17 million related to the divestitures. The gain is reflected in the other (income) expense, net caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income.

PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION
FORM 10-Q
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2013
AND COMPARABLE PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2012
OVERVIEW
The Company is a leading worldwide diversified manufacturer of motion and control technologies and systems, providing precision engineered solutions for a wide variety of mobile, industrial and aerospace markets.
The Company’s order rates provide a near-term perspective of the Company’s outlook particularly when viewed in the context of prior and future order rates. The Company publishes its order rates on a quarterly basis. The lead time between the time an order is received and revenue is realized generally ranges from one day to 12 weeks for mobile and industrial orders and from one day to 18 months for aerospace orders. The Company believes the leading economic indicators of these markets that have a strong correlation to the Company’s future order rates are as follows:

Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) on manufacturing activity specific to regions around the world with respect to most mobile and industrial markets;
Global aircraft miles flown and global revenue passenger miles for commercial aerospace markets and Department of Defense spending for military aerospace markets; and
Housing starts with respect to the North American residential air conditioning market and certain mobile construction markets.
A PMI above 50 indicates that the manufacturing activity specific to a region of the world in the mobile and industrial markets is expanding. A PMI below 50 indicates the opposite. Recent PMI levels for some regions around the world were as follows:
 
March 31, 2013

 
December 31, 2012

 
June 30, 2012

United States
51.3

 
50.7

 
49.7

Eurozone countries
46.8

 
46.1

 
45.1

China
51.6

 
51.5

 
48.2

Global aircraft miles flown have increased approximately two percent from the comparable fiscal 2012 level and global revenue passenger miles have increased approximately three percent from the comparable fiscal 2012 level. The Company anticipates that U.S. Department of Defense spending with regard to appropriations and operations and maintenance for the U.S. Government’s fiscal year 2013 will be slightly up from the comparable fiscal 2012 level.
Housing starts in March 2013 were approximately 47 percent higher than housing starts in March 2012 and were approximately 9 percent higher than housing starts in December 2012.
The Company remains focused on maintaining its financial strength by adjusting its cost structure to reflect changing demand levels, maintaining a strong balance sheet and managing its cash. The Company has been able to borrow funds at affordable interest rates and had a debt to debt-shareholders’ equity ratio of 35.9 percent at March 31, 2013 compared to 27.5 percent at December 31, 2012 and 26.1 percent at June 30, 2012. Net of cash and cash equivalents, the debt to debt-shareholders' equity ratio was 19.9 percent at March 31, 2013 compared to 22.2 percent at December 31, 2012 and 15.4 percent at June 30, 2012.
The Company believes many opportunities for profitable growth are available. The Company intends to focus primarily on business opportunities in the areas of energy, water, agriculture, environment, defense, life sciences, infrastructure and transportation.

- 16 -



The Company believes it can meet its strategic objectives by:

Serving the customer;
Successfully executing its Win Strategy initiatives relating to premier customer service, financial performance and profitable growth;
Maintaining its decentralized division and sales company structure;
Fostering an entrepreneurial culture;
Engineering innovative systems and products to provide superior customer value through improved service, efficiency and productivity;
Delivering products, systems and services that have demonstrable savings to customers and are priced by the value they deliver;
Acquiring strategic businesses;
Organizing around targeted regions, technologies and markets;
Driving efficiency by implementing lean enterprise principles; and
Creating a culture of empowerment through its values, inclusion and diversity, accountability and teamwork.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2013, the Company completed eight acquisitions whose aggregate sales for their most recent fiscal year prior to acquisition were $484 million. Acquisitions will continue to be considered from time to time to the extent there is a strong strategic fit, while at the same time, maintaining the Company’s strong financial position. During the first nine months of fiscal 2013, the Company divested the automotive businesses of the Mobile Climate Systems division and the Turkey refrigeration components business. Both of the divested businesses were part of the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment. The Company recognized a net pre-tax gain of $17 million related to the divestitures. The Company will continue to assess its existing businesses and initiate efforts to divest businesses that are not considered to be a good long-term strategic fit for the Company. Future business divestitures could have a negative effect on the Company’s results of operations.
The discussion below is structured to separately discuss the Consolidated Statement of Income, Results by Business Segment, Consolidated Balance Sheet and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Net sales for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 decreased from the comparable prior-year periods primarily due to lower volume experienced in the Industrial International businesses and the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment offsetting slightly higher volume experienced in the Aerospace Segment. Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 benefited from slightly higher sales in the North American Industrial businesses. Acquisitions made in the last 12 months contributed approximately $134 million and $343 million in sales in the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013, respectively. The effect of currency rate changes decreased net sales by approximately $23 million in the current-year quarter and $133 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013.
Gross profit margin declined in the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 primarily due to higher defined benefit costs in all Segments, operating inefficiencies in the Industrial Segment and higher engineering development costs in the Aerospace Segment. Gross profit margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 was also adversely impacted by an unfavorable product mix in the Aerospace Segment.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased slightly for the current-year quarter primarily due to an increase in intangible asset amortization expense and acquisition-related expenses as well as higher net expenses associated with the Company’s incentive and deferred compensation programs. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 were higher primarily due to an increase in intangible asset amortization expense partially offset by lower net expenses associated with the Company's incentive and deferred compensations programs.
Interest expense for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 increased primarily due to higher weighted-average borrowings and higher interest rates on commercial paper borrowings.
Other (income) expense, net for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 includes a net gain of approximately $17 million related to the divestiture of the automotive businesses of the Mobile Climate Systems division and the Turkey refrigeration components business.
Effective tax rate for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 was higher than the comparable prior-year rates primarily due to an unfavorable geographical mix of earnings and the settlement of tax audits in the prior-year periods. The effective tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 was also adversely impacted by the tax effects of business divestitures. The unfavorable impact of these items was partially offset by the enactment of the American Taxpayer Relief Act on January 2, 2013. The Company expects the effective tax rate for fiscal 2013 will be approximately 28 percent.

The above presentation reconciles the percentage changes in net sales of the Industrial Segment operations reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to percentage changes in net sales adjusted to remove the effects of acquisitions made within the prior four fiscal quarters as well as the effects of currency exchange rates. The effects of acquisitions and currency exchange rates are removed to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage changes in net sales on a comparable basis from period to period.
Excluding the effects of acquisitions and changes in currency exchange rates, the decrease in Industrial North American sales for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 is primarily the result of lower demand from distributors as well as from end-users in most markets with the largest sales decline occurring in the construction equipment, oil and gas, mining, automotive and machine tool markets. The decrease in Industrial International sales for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 is primarily attributable to lower volume across most markets in all regions with the largest decrease equally distributed between Europe and the Asia Pacific region.
The decrease in operating margins in the Industrial North American businesses is primarily due to an unfavorable product mix and operating inefficiencies resulting from the decrease in sales volume partially offset by the favorable effect of lower raw material prices. The decrease in operating margins in the Industrial International businesses is primarily due to the lower sales volume, resulting in operating inefficiencies, as well as the impact of integration costs related to current-year acquisitions.

The business realignment charges consist primarily of severance costs resulting from plant closures as well as general reductions in work force. The Industrial North America business realignment charges for the prior-year quarter also include expenses associated with enhanced retirement benefits. The Company does not anticipate that cost savings realized from the work force reductions taken during the first nine months of fiscal 2013 will have a material impact on future operating margins. The Company expects to continue to take the actions necessary to structure appropriately the operations of the Industrial Segment. Such actions may include the necessity to record additional business realignment charges in the remainder of fiscal 2013, the timing and amount of which has not been finalized.
The decrease in backlog from the prior-year quarter is primarily due to lower order rates in virtually all of the Industrial North American and Industrial International businesses with the decline in backlog split evenly between Industrial North America and Industrial International. The decrease in backlog from the June 30, 2012 amount of $1,813.7 million is primarily attributable to lower order rates in the Industrial North American businesses. The Company anticipates Industrial North American sales for fiscal 2013 will range from a decrease of 0.1 percent to an increase of 1.9 percent from the fiscal 2012 level and Industrial International sales for fiscal 2013 will decrease between 4.3 percent and 1.5 percent from the fiscal 2012 level. Industrial North American operating margins in fiscal 2013 are expected to range from 16.8 percent to 17.0 percent and Industrial International operating margins are expected to range from 12.4 percent to 12.8 percent. The lower expected sales and operating margin levels in 2013 are primarily due to anticipated weakness in the Industrial Segment markets for the remainder of fiscal 2013.

The increase in net sales in the Aerospace Segment for the current-year quarter is primarily due to higher volume in both the commercial and military original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and aftermarket businesses. The increase in net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 is primarily due to higher volume in both the commercial and military OEM businesses as well as the military aftermarket business partially offset by lower volume in the commercial aftermarket business. The higher margins in the current-year quarter were primarily due to the higher sales volume and a favorable product mix. The lower margins for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 were primarily due to higher engineering development costs more than offsetting the benefit of the higher sales volume and the current-year quarter favorable product mix.
The increase in backlog from the prior-year quarter is primarily due to higher order rates in the commercial aftermarket business more than offsetting a decline in order rates in both the commercial and military OEM businesses and the military aftermarket business. The increase in backlog from the June 30, 2012 amount of $1,862.0 million is primarily due to higher order rates in the military OEM and commercial aftermarket businesses partially offset by a decline in order rates in the commercial OEM and military aftermarket businesses. For fiscal 2013, sales are expected to increase between 7.1 percent and 9.1 percent from the fiscal 2012 level and operating margins are expected to range from 12.3 percent to 12.5 percent. A higher concentration of commercial OEM volume in future product mix and higher than expected new product development costs could result in lower margins.

The effects of currency exchange rates are removed to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage changes in net sales on a comparable basis from period to period.
Excluding the effects of changes in currency exchange rates, the decrease in net sales in the CIC Segment for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 is primarily due to the absence of sales from businesses divested in fiscal 2013 as well as lower volume in the commercial refrigeration and air conditioning markets. Operating margins in the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 were higher than the prior-year comparable periods primarily due to spending control efforts and lower raw material prices more than offsetting the impact of the decrease in sales volume. Business realignment charges recorded by the CIC Segment in fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 were not significant. The Company may take further actions to structure appropriately the operations of the CIC Segment. Such actions may include the necessity to record business realignment charges in the remainder of fiscal 2013, the timing and amount of which has not been finalized.
In fiscal 2013, the Company completed the divestiture of the automotive businesses of the Mobile Climate Systems division and its Turkey refrigeration components business. For fiscal 2013, sales are expected to decrease between 14.8 percent and 12.4 percent from the fiscal 2012 level and operating margins are expected to range from 9.6 percent to 10.0 percent. The expected fiscal 2013 sales and operating margins take into consideration the absence of sales and operating margins of each of the divested businesses for the remainder of fiscal 2013.
Corporate general and administrative expenses
Corporate general and administrative expenses were $41.4 million in the current-year quarter compared to $38.4 million in the prior-year quarter and were $126.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 compared to $142.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. As a percent of sales, corporate general and administrative expenses for the current-year quarter was 1.3 percent compared to 1.1 percent in the prior-year quarter and decreased to 1.3 percent for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 compared to 1.5 percent for the first nine months of fiscal 2012. Net expense associated with the Company's incentive and deferred compensation programs is the primary driver for the fluctuation in corporate general and administrative expenses between periods.

The increase in pension expense in the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013 primarily resulted from a higher amount of actuarial losses, primarily related to domestic defined benefit plans, recognized in the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2013. Divestitures and asset sales and writedowns for the first nine months of fiscal 2013 includes a net gain of approximately $17 million related to the divestiture of the automotive businesses of the Mobile Climate Systems division and the Turkey refrigeration components business.

Cash and cash equivalents include $1,541 million and $629 million held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries at March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively. Generally, cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries are not readily available for use in the United States without adverse tax consequences. The Company's principal sources of liquidity are its cash flows provided by operating activities, commercial paper borrowings or borrowings directly from its line of credit. The Company does not believe the level of its non-U.S. cash position will have an adverse effect on working capital needs, planned growth, repayment of maturing debt, benefit plan funding, dividend payments or share repurchases.
Accounts receivable, net is primarily receivables due from customers for sales of product ($1,803 million at March 31, 2013 and $1,782 million at June 30, 2012). Days sales outstanding relating to trade accounts receivable was 49 days at March 31, 2013 and 48 days at June 30, 2012. The Company believes that its receivables are collectible and appropriate allowances for doubtful accounts have been recorded.
Inventories increased $72 million (which includes an increase of $4 million from the effect of foreign currency translation)primarily due to acquisitions as well as an increase in inventory levels in the Aerospace Segment partially offset by a decrease in inventory levels in the Industrial Segment. Days’ supply of inventory was 67 days at March 31, 2013, 63 days at June 30, 2012 and 64 days at March 31, 2012. Day's supply of inventory amounts at June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012 have been revised from amounts previously presented to conform to the current calculation methodology.





- 22 -



Accrued payrolls and other compensation decreased primarily due to the payment of incentive compensation during fiscal 2013 that had been accrued as of June 30, 2012.
Notes payable and long-term debt payable within one year increased primarily due to a higher amount of commercial paper borrowing outstanding at the end of the current-year quarter. The Company from time to time will utilize short-term intercompany loans to repay commercial paper borrowings. At times, the short-term intercompany loans are outstanding at the end of a fiscal quarter.
Shareholders’ equity activity during the first nine months of fiscal 2013 included a decrease of approximately $206 million related to share repurchases and an increase of approximately $38 million related to foreign currency translation adjustments.

Cash flows from operating activities decreased compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2012 primarily due to a decrease in net income as well as $226 million of voluntary cash contributions made to the Company's domestic qualified defined benefit pension plan during the first nine months of fiscal 2013. The Company continues to focus on managing its inventory and other working capital requirements.
Cash flows used in investing activities increased in fiscal 2013 primarily due to an increase in acquisition activity as well as an increase in capital expenditures partially offset by the net proceeds from businesses divested in fiscal 2013.
Cash flows used in financing activities in fiscal 2013 included the repurchase of 2.5 million common shares for $206 million as compared to the repurchase of 4.9 million common shares for $332 million in the prior year. Cash flow activities in the current year include a higher level of borrowings than the prior year due to the increase in acquisition activity. In both the current and prior year, the Company purchased the outstanding shares not previously owned by the Company in majority-owned subsidiaries.
The Company’s goal is to maintain no less than an “A” rating on senior debt to ensure availability and reasonable cost of external funds. As a means of achieving this objective, the Company has established a financial goal of maintaining a ratio of debt to debt-shareholders’ equity of no more than 37 percent.

At March 31, 2013, the Company had a line of credit totaling $2,000 million through a multi-currency revolving credit agreement with a group of banks, of which $475 million was available. The credit agreement expires in October 2017; however, the Company has the right to request a one-year extension of the expiration date on an annual basis, which request may result in changes to the current terms and conditions of the credit agreement. Advances from the credit agreement can be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and for the refinancing of existing indebtedness. The credit agreement requires the payment of an annual facility fee, the amount of which would increase in the event the Company’s credit ratings are lowered. Although a lowering of the Company’s credit ratings would likely increase the cost of future debt, it would not limit the Company’s ability to use the credit agreement nor would it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.

- 23 -



The Company is currently authorized to sell up to $1,850 million of short-term commercial paper notes. As of March 31, 2013, $1,525 million of commercial paper notes were outstanding and the largest amount of commercial paper notes outstanding during the third quarter of fiscal 2013 was $1,561 million.
The Company’s credit agreements and indentures governing certain debt agreements contain various covenants, the violation of which would limit or preclude the use of the credit agreements for future borrowings, or might accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding borrowings covered by the indentures. Based on the Company’s rating level at March 31, 2013, the most restrictive financial covenant provides that the ratio of secured debt to net tangible assets be less than 10 percent. However, the Company currently does not have secured debt in its debt portfolio. The Company is in compliance with all covenants and expects to remain in compliance during the term of the credit agreements and indentures.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Impairment of Goodwill and Long-Lived Assets - Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and between annual tests whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a reporting unit may exceed its fair value. For the Company, a reporting unit is one level below the operating segment level. Determining whether an impairment has occurred requires the valuation of the respective reporting unit, which the Company has consistently estimated using a discounted cash flow model. The Company believes that the use of a discounted cash flow model results in the most accurate calculation of a reporting unit’s fair value because the market value for a reporting unit is not readily available. The discounted cash flow analysis requires several assumptions, including future sales growth and operating margin levels, as well as assumptions regarding future industry specific market conditions. Each reporting unit regularly prepares discrete operating forecasts and uses these forecasts as the basis for the assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis. The Company has consistently used a discount rate commensurate with its cost of capital, adjusted for inherent business risks and has consistently used a terminal growth factor of 2.5 percent. The Company also reconciles the estimated aggregate fair value of its reporting units as derived from the discounted cash flow analysis to the Company’s overall market capitalization.
The result of the Company's fiscal 2013 annual goodwill impairment test performed as of December 31, 2012 indicated that no goodwill impairment existed. However, the Worldwide Energy Products reporting unit had an estimated fair value that the Company has determined was not significantly in excess of its carrying value. Worldwide Energy Products has a goodwill balance as of March 31, 2013 of $186.4 million and is part of the Industrial Segment. The sales growth assumption had the most significant influence on the estimation of its fair value.
The sales growth assumption for Worldwide Energy Products was based on future business already secured or highly likely to be secured with existing customers based on current quoting activity and forecasted market demand for the oil and gas industry as well as sales initiatives to expand the use of the reporting unit's products in the oil and gas industry. The key uncertainty in the sales growth assumption used in the estimation of the fair value of this reporting unit is the growth of the oil and gas market and the ability to expand the use of the reporting unit's products in the oil and gas industry.
The Company continually monitors its reporting units for impairment indicators and updates assumptions used in the most recent calculation of the fair value of a reporting unit as appropriate. The Company is unaware of any current market trends that are contrary to the assumptions made in the estimation of the fair value of any of its reporting units. If actual experience is not consistent with the assumptions made in the estimation of the fair value of the reporting units, especially assumptions regarding penetration into new markets and the recovery of the current economic environment, it is possible that the estimated fair value of certain reporting units could fall below their carrying value resulting in the necessity to conduct additional goodwill impairment tests.
Long-lived assets held for use, which primarily includes finite-lived intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, are evaluated for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the undiscounted net cash flows to be generated by their use over their expected useful lives and eventual disposition are less than their net carrying value. The long-term nature of these assets requires the estimation of their cash inflows and outflows several years into the future and only takes into consideration technological advances known at the time of the impairment test. During the first nine months of fiscal 2013, there were no events or circumstances that indicated that the net carrying value of the Company’s long-lived assets held for use was not recoverable.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company manages foreign currency transaction and translation risk by utilizing derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, costless collar contracts and cross-currency swap contracts and certain foreign denominated debt designated as net investment hedges. The derivative financial instrument contracts are with major investment grade financial institutions and the Company does not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the counterparties. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Further information on the fair value of these contracts is provided in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Gains or losses on derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair value through the Consolidated Statement of Income. Gains or losses on derivatives that are hedges are adjusted to fair value through accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The translation of the foreign denominated debt that has been designated as a net investment hedge is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and remains there until the underlying net investment is sold or substantially liquidated.
The Company’s debt portfolio contains variable rate debt, inherently exposing the Company to interest rate risk. The Company’s objective is to maintain a 60/40 mix between fixed rate and variable rate debt thereby limiting its exposure to changes in near-term interest rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2013. Based on this evaluation, the Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2013, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2013 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PARKER-HANNIFIN CORPORATION
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings. Parker ITR S.r.l. (Parker ITR), a subsidiary acquired on January 31, 2002, has been the subject of a number of lawsuits and regulatory investigations. The lawsuits and investigations relate to allegations that for a period of up to 21 years, the Parker ITR business unit that manufactures and sells marine hose, typically used in oil transfer, conspired with competitors in unreasonable restraint of trade to artificially raise, fix, maintain or stabilize prices, rig bids and allocate markets and customers for marine oil and gas hose in the United States and in other jurisdictions. Parker ITR and the Company have cooperated with all of the regulatory authorities investigating the activities of the Parker ITR business unit that manufactures and sells marine hose and continue to cooperate with the investigations that remain ongoing. Several of the investigations and all of the lawsuits have concluded. The following investigations remain pending.
Brazilian competition authorities commenced their investigations on November 14, 2007. Parker ITR filed a procedural defense in January 2008. The Brazilian authorities appear to be investigating the period from 1999 through May 2007. In June 2011, the Brazilian competition authorities issued a report and Parker ITR filed a response to that report. The potential outcome of the investigation in Brazil is uncertain and will depend on the resolution of numerous issues not known at this stage of the investigation.
On May 15, 2007, the European Commission issued its initial Request for Information to the Company and Parker ITR. On January 28, 2009, the European Commission announced the results of its investigation of the alleged cartel activities. As part of its decision, the European Commission found that Parker ITR infringed Article 81 of the European Commission treaty from April 1986 to May 2, 2007 and fined Parker ITR 25.61 million euros. The European Commission also determined that the Company was jointly and severally responsible for 8.32 million euros of the total fine which related to the period from January 2002, when the Company acquired Parker ITR, to May 2, 2007, when the cartel activities ceased. Parker ITR and the Company filed an appeal to the Court of First Instance of the European Communities on April 10, 2009.

From time to time thereafter, the Board of Directors has adjusted the overall maximum number of shares authorized for repurchase under this program and imposed an additional limitation on the number of shares authorized for repurchase in any single fiscal year. On January 24, 2013, the Board of Directors approved an increase in the overall maximum number of shares authorized for repurchase under this program so that, beginning on such date, the aggregate number of shares authorized for repurchase was 15 million shares. Such authorization is limited, in any single fiscal year, to the greater of 7.5 million shares or five percent of the shares outstanding as of the end of the prior fiscal year. There is no expiration date for this program.
