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, 2010, the results of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 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 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These include the adoption of new accounting rules regarding noncontrolling interests.

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

2. New accounting pronouncements

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) new guidance regarding business combinations. This guidance changed the accounting for business combinations both during the period of acquisition and in subsequent periods. Acquisition costs will generally be expensed as incurred; noncontrolling interests will be valued at fair value at the acquisition date; in-process research and development will be recorded at fair value as an indefinite-lived asset at the acquisition date; restructuring costs associated with a business combination will generally be expensed subsequent to the acquisition date; and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations during the nine months ended March 31, 2010.

In December 2008, the FASB issued new guidance requiring detailed disclosures regarding the investment strategies, fair value measurements and concentrations of risk of plan assets of a defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan. This guidance is effective for fiscal years ending after December 31, 2009, and the Company has not yet determined the impact it will have on the Company’s retirement benefits disclosures.

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, 2010 and June 30, 2009 is immaterial to the financial position of the Company and the change in the accrual for the current and prior-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009 is immaterial to the Company’s results of operations and cash flows.

4. Earnings per share

The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009.


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2010		2009		2010		2009
Numerator:
Net income attributable to common shareholders	$	153,863	$	53,422	$	331,902	$	458,999
Denominator:
Basic - weighted average common shares		160,931,123		160,529,032		160,776,068		161,927,857
Increase in weighted average common shares from dilutive effect of equity-based awards		2,701,580		482,124		1,922,237		1,175,539

Diluted - weighted average common shares, assuming exercise of equity-based awards		163,632,703		161,011,156		162,698,305		163,103,396

Basic earnings per share	$	.96	$	.33	$	2.06	$	2.83
Diluted earnings per share	$	.94	$	.33	$	2.04	$	2.81

For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, 4,448,497 and 10,639,997 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, 2010 and 2009, 9,347,826 and 5,830,350 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, 2010, the Company repurchased 83,300 shares at an average price of $59.00 per share. Fiscal year-to-date, the Company repurchased 281,132 shares at an average price of $53.05 per share.

6. Business realignment charges

During the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010, the Company recorded charges of $14.9 million and $41.3 million, respectively, for the costs to structure its businesses in light of current and anticipated customer demand. 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. The Company believes the realignment actions will positively impact future results of operations but will have no material effect on liquidity and sources and uses of capital. The Industrial Segment recognized $14.4 million and $37.1 million of the total charge for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010, respectively, relating to approximately 260 and 1,275 employees, respectively. The Climate & Industrial Controls Segment recognized $0.5 million and $3.7 million of the total charge for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010, respectively, relating to approximately 245 employees for the first nine months of fiscal 2010. The Aerospace Segment recognized $0.5 million of the total charge for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 relating to approximately 50 employees. The charge is presented primarily in the Cost of sales caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2010, approximately $22.6 million in severance payments have been made with the majority of the remaining payments expected to be made by June 30, 2010.

During the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2009, the Company recorded charges of $25.2 million and $36.9 million, respectively, for the costs to structure its businesses in light of current and anticipated customer demand. The charges primarily consisted of severance costs related to plant closures as well as general work force reductions implemented by various operating units throughout the world. The Company believes the realignment actions will positively impact future results of operations but will have no material effect on liquidity and sources and uses of capital. The Industrial Segment recognized $15.3 million and $21.0 million of the total charge for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2009, respectively, relating to approximately 1,650 and 2,725 employees, respectively. The Climate & Industrial Controls Segment recognized $1.9 million and $7.9 million of the total charge for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2009, respectively, relating to approximately 340 and 585 employees, respectively. The Aerospace Segment recognized $1.4 million of the total charge for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2009 relating to approximately 145 employees. Approximately $6.6 million of the total charge for the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2009 was recorded below segment operating income. The charge is presented primarily in the Cost of sales caption in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2009. All severance payments have been made.

Additional charges to be recognized in future periods related to the specific actions discussed above are not expected to be material.

7. Equity

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the FASB’s new guidance regarding the accounting for noncontrolling interests. The new rules require the recognition of a noncontrolling interest as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest is included in Net income on the face of the Consolidated Statement of Income.

Changes in equity for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 are as follows:

Historically, the Company has provided self-insured retiree medical plan benefits for non-union employees upon their retirement. The retiree was responsible for paying the premiums for the medical coverage but the Company paid the costs of administering the plans (i.e., claims processing costs). Absorbing the administration costs was considered a benefit under the postretirement benefit accounting rules because the employees who elected to enroll in the retiree medical plans paid a lower premium because the Company was paying the costs to administer the plan. In the third quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company discontinued its self-insured retiree medical plans for non-union employees and has therefore eliminated the cost associated with administering the plans. The Company recognized $22.4 million in income in the third quarter of fiscal 2009 as a result of eliminating the liability related to this benefit.

During the first nine months of fiscal 2010, the Company made approximately $130 million in cash contributions to its qualified defined benefit plans and expects to contribute approximately $10 million in cash to its qualified defined benefit plans during the last three months of fiscal 2010. The majority of the cash contributions made in fiscal 2010 are discretionary.

10. Income taxes

As of March 31, 2010, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $118,895. The total amount of unrecognized benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate was $107,192. The accrued interest related to the gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluded from the amounts above, was $9,450.

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. During the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company reached a settlement with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on the examination of U.S. federal income tax returns for fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2007. As a result, the Company is no longer subject to examinations of its U.S. federal income tax returns by the IRS for fiscal years through 2007. All significant state, local and foreign tax returns have been examined for fiscal years through 2001. The Company anticipates that within the next 12 months the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits related to income inclusion items, loss deductions and loss carryforwards may be reduced by an amount of up to $59 million due to the settlement of examinations and the expiration of statutes of limitation.

11. Fair value measurement

On July 1, 2009, the Company adopted the FASB’s new guidance relating to fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, which includes goodwill and long-lived assets. These items are recognized at fair value when an impairment exists. As of March 31, 2010, no material fair value adjustments were made to the Company’s nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities.

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of investments in cash, cash equivalents and long-term investments as well as obligations under notes payable and long-term debt. Due to their short-term nature, the carrying values of Cash and cash equivalents and Notes payable approximate fair value. The carrying value of Long-term debt (excluding leases) was $1,846,944 and $1,889,844 at March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively, and was estimated to have a fair value of $1,937,609 and $1,899,246 at March 31, 2010 and June 30, 2009, respectively. The fair value of Long-term debt (excluding leases) was estimated using discounted cash flow analyses assuming current interest rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements and maturities.

The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2010 follows:


	Total		Quoted Prices In Active Markets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Assets:
Available for sale equity securities	$	3,617	$	3,617	$		$
Derivatives		714				714

Liabilities:
Deferred compensation plans		114,554		114,554
Derivatives		4,002				4,002

11. Fair value measurement, continued

Available for sale equity securities consist of an investment in an electronic and electrical equipment company, the fair value of which is measured using quoted market prices. Derivatives primarily consist of costless collar contracts, the fair value of which is calculated through a model that utilizes market observable inputs including both spot and forward prices for the same underlying currencies. The Company has established nonqualified deferred compensation programs which permit officers, directors and certain management employees to defer a portion of their compensation, on a pre-tax basis, until their termination of employment. Changes in the fair value of the compensation deferred under these programs are recognized based on quoted market prices for the participants’ investment elections.

12. Contingencies

The Company is involved in various litigation matters arising in the normal course of business, including proceedings based on product liability claims, workers’ compensation claims and alleged violations of various environmental laws. The Company is self-insured in the United States for health care, workers’ compensation, general liability and product liability up to predetermined amounts, above which, subject to certain limitations, third-party insurance applies. Management regularly reviews the probable outcome of these proceedings, the expenses expected to be incurred, the availability and limits of the insurance coverage, and the established accruals for liabilities. While the outcome of pending proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that any liabilities that may result from these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.

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, which are more fully described in Part II, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Each of these lawsuits and regulatory investigations was also described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.

With respect to the class action lawsuits, the Company recognized $20,000 in expense in fiscal 2008 and $2,322 in expense in fiscal 2009, all of which was recognized in the first nine months of fiscal 2009. No expenses related to the class action lawsuits were recognized during the first nine months of fiscal 2010. With respect to the regulatory investigations, the Company recognized $35,084 in expense in fiscal 2009, $32,794 of which was recognized during the first nine months of fiscal 2009, and recognized $654 in expense during the first nine months of fiscal 2010.

The Company has made all required payments relating to the class action lawsuits and regulatory investigations. With respect to the class action lawsuits, the Company made payments of $22,322 in fiscal 2009, all of which were made during the first nine months of fiscal 2009, and made no payments in the first nine months of fiscal 2010. With respect to the regulatory investigations, the Company made payments of $32,794 in fiscal 2009, none of which were made during the first nine months of fiscal 2009, and made payments of $35 in the first nine months of fiscal 2010. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had a remaining reserve of $2,909 related to the class action lawsuits and regulatory investigations.

Legal expenses related to these matters are being expensed as incurred and totaled $250 and $749 for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively, and $1,331 and $2,553 during the first nine months of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2010

AND COMPARABLE PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2009

OVERVIEW

The Company is a leading worldwide diversified manufacturer of motion 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;

•

Available seat miles and 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.

A PMI above 50 indicates that the manufacturing activity specific to a region around the world in the mobile and industrial markets is expanding. A PMI below 50 indicates the opposite. The PMI for the United States at the end of March 2010 was 59.6 and the PMI for the Eurozone countries at the end of March 2010 was 56.6. The PMI for the United States and the Eurozone countries have both sequentially increased from their June 2009 levels and the Company expects the sequential increase to continue in the short term, though beyond that period the PMI levels are difficult to predict.

With respect to the aerospace market, the latest available information the Company has indicates that airlines are reducing capacity, resulting in a decline in average available seat miles of approximately two percent from the comparable fiscal 2009 level. Revenue passenger miles have increased approximately four percent from the comparable fiscal 2009 levels with improvement shown in all regions of the world. The Company anticipates that Department of Defense spending in fiscal 2010 will be about two percent higher than the fiscal 2009 level. With respect to the North American residential air conditioning market, housing starts in March 2010 were 20 percent above housing starts in March 2009.

The Company also believes that there is a high negative correlation between interest rates and industrial manufacturing activity. Increases in interest rates typically have a negative impact on industrial production thereby lowering future order rates while decreases in interest rates typically have the opposite effect.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company began to see signs of an economic recovery. Throughout the worldwide economic downturn, the Company 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’s Win Strategy initiatives relating to growth and margin improvement as well as the implementation of a number of business realignment initiatives, including plant closures and general workforce reductions, continue to help meet this objective.

The financial condition of the Company remains strong. The Company continues to generate substantial cash flows from operations, has controlled capital spending and has proactively managed working capital. The Company has been able to borrow needed funds at acceptable interest rates and currently has a debt to debt-equity ratio of 29.2 percent.

While the worldwide economic environment has necessitated that the Company concentrate its efforts on maintaining financial strength, the Company believes many opportunities for growth remain available. The Company will evaluate these opportunities as appropriate in the current environment in order to strongly position itself as the economic recovery occurs. Major opportunities for growth are as follows:

•

Leveraging the Company’s broad product line with customers desiring to consolidate their vendor base and outsource system engineering;

•

Marketing systems solutions for customer applications;

•

Expanding the Company’s business presence outside of North America;

•

Introducing new products, including those resulting from the Company’s innovation initiatives;

•

Completing strategic acquisitions in a consolidating motion and control industry; and

•

Expanding the Company’s vast distribution network.

The Company completed one acquisition and one divestiture during the first nine months of fiscal 2010. 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. The Company will also continue to assess the strategic fit of its existing businesses and initiate efforts to divest businesses that are not considered to be a good long-term 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, Balance Sheet and Statement of Cash Flows.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF INCOME


	Three Months Ended March 31,						Nine Months Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009			2010			2009

Net income, as a percent of sales		5.9	%		2.3	%		4.6	%		5.7	%

Net sales for the current-year quarter increased 11.5 percent over the prior-year quarter and decreased 11.0 percent from the first nine months of fiscal 2009. The increase in sales for the current-year quarter reflects higher volume in all segments except for the Aerospace Segment. The decline in sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 reflects lower volume in all segments. Acquisitions made in the last 12 months contributed approximately $84 million in sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2010. The effect of currency rate changes increased net sales by approximately $84 million and $140 million in the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010, respectively.

Gross profit margin increased in the current-year quarter primarily due to a combination of the higher sales volume and the benefits of past business realignment actions, especially in the Industrial North American operations. Gross margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 was lower than the comparable prior year period primarily due to a combination of the lower sales volume, resulting in manufacturing inefficiencies as well as higher business realignment expenses. Included in gross profit are business realignment charges of $14.1 million and $18.3 million in the current-year quarter and prior-year quarter, respectively, and $37.7 million and $28.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively.

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010 primarily due to lower incentive compensation and the lower sales volume in the first nine months of fiscal 2010.

Interest expense for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010 decreased primarily due to lower average debt outstanding as well as lower interest rates on commercial paper borrowings.

Other expense, net for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 included $11.0 million of asset writedowns, including assets related to a business whose divestiture was completed in the current-year quarter. Other expense, net in the prior-year quarter included $36.2 million of expense related to litigation settlements and $11.6 million of income related to insurance recoveries. Other expense, net for the first nine months of fiscal 2009 included $37.4 million of expense related to litigation settlements, $7.7 million of expense related to an investment and $11.6 million of income related to insurance recoveries.

Effective tax rate for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010 was higher primarily due to higher taxable income especially in the United States. The effective tax rate for the prior-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2009 reflects a tax benefit associated with a worthless stock deduction related to the Parker ITR S.r.l. subsidiary. The Company expects the effective tax rate for fiscal 2010 to be approximately 28 percent.

The Industrial Segment operations experienced the following percentage changes in net sales in the current-year period compared to the equivalent prior-year period:


	Period Ending March 31
	Three Months		Nine Months
Industrial North America – as reported	11.9	%	(12.5	)%
Acquisitions	0.0	%	(0.8	)%
Currency	(1.4	)%	(0.4	)%

Industrial North America – without acquisitions and currency	10.5	%	(13.7	)%

Industrial International – as reported	18.9	%	(10.5	)%
Acquisitions	0.0	%	(1.9	)%
Currency	(7.8	)%	(3.9	)%

Industrial International – without acquisitions and currency	11.1	%	(16.3	)%

Total Industrial Segment – as reported	15.4	%	(11.4	)%
Acquisitions	0.0	%	(1.4	)%
Currency	(4.6	)%	(2.2	)%

Total Industrial Segment – without acquisitions and currency	10.8	%	(15.0	)%

The above presentation reconciles the percentage changes in net sales of the Industrial 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 year comparable 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 foreign currency changes, the increase in Industrial North American net sales for the current-year quarter reflects higher demand experienced from distributors and higher end-user demand in a number of markets, particularly in the heavy-duty truck, construction equipment and semiconductor markets. The decrease in Industrial North American net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 reflects lower demand experienced from distributors and lower end-user demand experienced in most of the markets of the Industrial North American businesses, as customers reduced order levels in response to economic conditions. The increase in Industrial International net sales for the current-year quarter is primarily attributable to higher volume across most markets in all regions with the largest increase in volume experienced in Asia Pacific. The decline in Industrial International net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 is primarily attributable to lower volume across most markets in all regions with the largest decline in volume experienced in Europe.

Margins in the Industrial North American businesses were higher for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010 due primarily to the benefits from cost control measures and past business realignment actions. Industrial North American margins for the current-year quarter also benefitted from the higher sales volume. Higher sales volume as well as cost control measures and business realignment actions resulted in the higher margins in the Industrial International businesses in the current-year quarter. Benefits from business realignment actions taken in fiscal 2010 in the Industrial International businesses have helped to mitigate the margin decline for the first nine months of fiscal 2010.

Included in Industrial North American operating income are business realignment charges of $1.6 million and $6.0 million in the current-year quarter and prior-year quarter, respectively, and $9.9 million and $8.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. Included in Industrial International operating income are business realignment charges of $12.8 million and $9.3 million in the current-year quarter and prior-year quarter, respectively, and $27.2 million and $12.4 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. The business realignment expenses consist

primarily of severance costs resulting from plant closures as well as general reductions in the work force. The Company anticipates realizing cost savings resulting from the workforce reductions during the first nine months of fiscal 2010 of approximately $21.5 million in fiscal 2010 and approximately $37.1 million in fiscal 2011. The amount of savings that is actually realized may be lower than expected if the Company needs to hire employees in the future as a result of an increase in end-user demand. 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 fiscal 2010, the timing and amount of which has not been finalized. Also included in Industrial North American operating income for the prior-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2009 is income of $12.3 million related to retiree medical costs (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).

The increase in backlog from a year ago and the June 30, 2009 amount of $1,199.6 million is primarily due to higher order rates experienced across virtually all Industrial North American and Industrial International businesses. The Company anticipates Industrial North American sales for fiscal 2010 will decrease between 3.6 percent and 5.6 percent from the fiscal 2009 level and Industrial International sales for fiscal 2010 will decrease between 1.8 percent and 4.8 percent from the fiscal 2009 level. Industrial North American operating margins in fiscal 2010 are expected to range from 13.1 percent to 12.9 percent and Industrial International operating margins are expected to range from 9.9 percent to 9.7 percent.

Aerospace Segment


	Three Months Ended March 31,						Nine Months Ended March 31,
(dollars in millions)	2010			2009			2010			2009
Net sales	$	449.2		$	480.0		$	1,266.7		$	1,432.2
Operating income	$	49.8		$	65.7		$	144.0		$	203.5
Operating margin		11.1	%		13.7	%		11.4	%		14.2	%
Backlog	$	1,463.4		$	1,707.7		$	1 463.4		$	1,707.7

The decrease in net sales in the Aerospace Segment for the current-year quarter is primarily due to a decrease in commercial original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and military aftermarket volume partially offset by higher commercial aftermarket and military OEM volume. The decline in net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 is primarily due to a decrease in both commercial OEM and aftermarket volume partially offset by an increase in military OEM and aftermarket volume. Margins for the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010 were lower primarily due to the lower sales volume, partially offset by lower operating costs. Margins for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 were also negatively impacted by higher engineering development costs. Operating income for the prior-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2009 includes income of $6.3 million related to retiree medical costs (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).

The decrease in backlog from the prior-year quarter and the June 30, 2009 amount of $1,558.5 million is primarily due to shipments exceeding order rates primarily in the commercial OEM and aftermarket businesses. For fiscal 2010, sales are expected to decrease between 7.6 percent and 8.0 percent from the fiscal 2009 level and operating margins are expected to range from 11.7 percent to 11.5 percent. Lower commercial aftermarket volume in future product mix and higher than expected new product development costs could result in lower margins.

The Climate & Industrial Controls (CIC) Segment operations experienced the following percentage changes in net sales in the current-year period compared to the equivalent prior-year period:


	Period Ending March 31
	Three Months		Nine Months
CIC Segment – as reported	23.9	%	(5.3	)%
Currency	(3.6	)%	(0.9	)%

CIC Segment – without currency	20.3	%	(6.2	)%

The above presentation reconciles the percentage changes in net sales of the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to percentage changes in net sales adjusted to remove the effect of currency exchange rates. The effect of currency exchange rates is 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 effect of foreign currency changes, the increase in net sales in the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment for the current-year quarter is primarily due to higher volume in the automotive and residential air conditioning markets more than offsetting the lower end-user demand experienced in most other markets. Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 reflect lower end-user demand experienced in most markets attributable primarily to the global recession. The higher margins in the current-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2010 are primarily due to the benefits of cost control measures and past business realignment actions. Margins for the current-year quarter also benefitted from the higher sales volume. Included in operating income are business realignment charges of $0.5 million and $1.9 million for the current-year quarter and prior-year quarter, respectively, and $3.7 million and $7.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. The business realignment charges primarily relate to severance costs resulting from plant closures. The Company expects to realize cost savings resulting from the severance costs incurred during the first nine months of fiscal 2010 of approximately $1.9 million in fiscal 2010 and approximately $3.5 million in fiscal 2011. The amount of savings that is actually realized may be lower than expected if the Company needs to hire employees in the future as a result of an increase in end-user demand. The Company expects to continue to take the actions necessary to structure appropriately the operations of the Climate & Industrial Controls Segment. Such actions may include the necessity to record additional business realignment charges in fiscal 2010, the timing and amount of which has not been finalized. Operating income for the prior-year quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2009 includes income of $2.3 million related to retiree medical costs (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion).

The increase in backlog from the prior-year quarter and the June 30, 2009 amount of $127.2 million is primarily due to higher order rates in most markets, most notably in the automotive and residential air conditioning markets. For fiscal 2010, sales are expected to range from an increase of 0.9 percent to a decrease of 0.1 percent as compared to the fiscal 2009 level and operating margins are expected to range from 6.5 percent to 6.3 percent.

Corporate and Other

Corporate general and administrative expenses were $41.3 million in the current-year quarter compared to $40.4 million in the prior-year quarter and were $99.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 compared to $123.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2009. As a percent of sales, corporate general and administrative expenses for the current-year quarter were 1.6 percent compared to 1.7 percent for the prior-year quarter and were 1.4 percent and 1.5 percent for the first nine months of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, respectively. The lower expense in the first nine months of fiscal 2010 is primarily due to lower incentive compensation expenses.

Other expense (in the Business Segment Results) included the following:

Accounts receivable are primarily receivables due from customers for sales of product ($1,415 million at March 31, 2010 and $1,280 million at June 30, 2009). Days sales outstanding relating to trade accounts receivable decreased to 49 days at March 31, 2010 from 53 days at June 30, 2009. The Company believes that its receivables are collectible and appropriate allowances for doubtful accounts have been recorded.

Inventories decreased due to the Company’s concerted effort to match inventory levels with current customer demand. Days supply of inventory was 63 days at March 31, 2010 and 77 days at June 30, 2009.

Notes payable decreased since June 30, 2009 primarily due to payments made to reduce commercial paper borrowings partially offset by debt reclassified from long-term to current.

Accounts payable, trade increased from the June 30, 2009 balance primarily due to the timing of purchases and payments. Days payable outstanding increased to 34 days at March 31, 2010 from 33 days at June 30, 2009.

Accrued payrolls and other compensation decreased primarily due to lower incentive compensation.

Accrued domestic and foreign taxes increased primarily due to the timing of tax payments.

Due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar, foreign currency translation adjustments resulted in an increase in Shareholders’ equity of $28 million.

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS


	Nine months ended March 31,
(in millions)	2010			2009
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	841.4		$	716.1
Investing activities		(104.4	)		(918.2	)
Financing activities		(534.3	)		81.2
Effect of exchange rates		(9.7	)		(38.6	)
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	193.0		$	(159.5	)

Cash flows from operating activities increased despite lower Net income and a $100 million discretionary cash contribution to the Company’s qualified defined benefit plans. Cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2010 includes a $54 million cash payment received as a result of the restructuring of an executive life insurance program. In the prior year, the Company settled payments from an acquisition after the acquisition closing date resulting in the significant amount of cash used by Other accrued liabilities. Cash used for incentive compensation also decreased from the prior year.

Cash flows used in investing activities decreased as near-term economic uncertainties resulted in the Company reducing its acquisition activity and limiting capital expenditures.

Cash flows provided by financing activities decreased from the prior year when the Company used its commercial paper borrowings to fund acquisition activity and share repurchases. During the current year, the Company has been focused on repaying debt, which has resulted in reduced acquisition activity and a significantly lower level of share repurchases.

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-equity of no more than 37 percent.


Debt to Debt-Equity Ratio (in millions)	March 31, 2010			June 30, 2009
Debt	$	1,902.6		$	2,321.1
Debt & Shareholders’ equity	$	6,512.2		$	6,589.4
Ratio		29.2	%		35.2	%

The Company has a line of credit totaling $1,500 million through a multi-currency revolving credit agreement with a group of banks, of which $1,445 million was available as of March 31, 2010. The credit agreement expires in September 2012; 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. A portion of the credit agreement supports the Company’s commercial paper note program, which is rated A-1 by Standard & Poor’s, P-1 by Moody’s and F-1 by Fitch Ratings. These ratings are considered investment grade. The revolving credit agreement requires a facility fee of 4.5/100ths of one percent of the commitment per annum at the Company’s present rating level. The revolving credit agreement contains provisions that increase the facility fee of the credit agreement in the event the Company’s credit ratings are lowered. A lowering of the Company’s credit ratings would not limit the Company’s ability to use the credit agreement nor would it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.

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. At the Company’s present rating level, the most restrictive financial covenants provide 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.

The Company’s principal sources of liquidity are its cash flows provided from operating activities and borrowings either from or directly supported by its line of credit. The Company’s ability to borrow has not been affected by a lack of general credit availability and the Company does not foresee any impediments to borrow funds at affordable interest rates in the near future. The Company expects that its ability to generate cash from its operations and ability to borrow directly from its line of credit or sources directly supported by its line of credit should be sufficient to support working capital needs, planned growth, benefit plan funding, dividend payments and share repurchases in the near term.

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 analyses. 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 analyses to the Company’s overall market capitalization.

The results of the Company’s fiscal 2010 annual goodwill impairment test performed as of December 31, 2009 indicated that no goodwill impairment existed. However, the following reporting units had an estimated fair value that the Company has determined, from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective, was not significantly in excess of their carrying value:


Reporting Unit	Goodwill Balance		Fair Value In Excess of Carrying Value
Origa Europe	$	27.3 million	108	%
dh Industrial	$	158.1 million	105	%
Integrated Seal	$	121.1 million	101	%

All of these reporting units are part of the Industrial Segment. For each of these reporting units, the sales growth assumption had the most significant influence on the estimation of fair value.

The sales growth assumption for Origa Europe was primarily based on improved overall market conditions, new product development as well as benefits from synergies of fully integrating this reporting unit into the Company’s distribution networks. The key uncertainties in the sales growth assumption used in the estimation of the fair value of this reporting unit is the growth of the markets that this reporting unit serves as well as the ability to realize the expected level of integration benefits.

The sales growth assumption for dh Industrial was primarily based on improved overall market conditions as well as new product development. The key uncertainty in the sales growth assumption used in the estimation of the fair value of this reporting unit is the increase in customer demand in the markets that this reporting unit serves as well as market acceptance of new products.

The sales growth assumption for Integrated Seal was primarily based on economic forecasts of worldwide automotive production. Sales growth resulting from penetration into new markets through the modification of its existing products was also assumed. The key uncertainty in the sales growth assumption used in the estimation of the fair value of this reporting unit is the actual level of worldwide automotive production over the forecasted period.

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 its reporting unit’s fair value. If the recovery of the current economic environment is not consistent with the Company’s current expectations, 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 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 2010, there were no events or circumstances that indicated that the carrying value of the Company’s long-lived assets held for use were not recoverable.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Forward-looking statements contained in this and other written and oral reports are made based on known events and circumstances at the time of release, and as such, are subject in the future to unforeseen uncertainties and risks. All statements regarding future performance, earnings projections, events or developments are forward-looking statements. It is possible that the future performance and earnings projections of the Company and individual segments may differ materially from current expectations, depending on economic conditions within its mobile, industrial and aerospace markets, and the Company’s ability to maintain and achieve anticipated benefits associated with announced realignment activities, strategic initiatives to improve operating margins, actions taken to combat the effects of the current economic environment, and growth, innovation and global diversification initiatives. A change in the economic conditions in individual markets may have a particularly volatile effect on segment results.

Among the other factors which may affect future performance are:

•

changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from major customers, suppliers or distributors, including delays or cancellations in shipments, disputes regarding contract terms or significant changes in financial condition, and changes in contract cost and revenue estimates for new development programs,

•

uncertainties surrounding timing, successful completion or integration of acquisitions,

•

ability to realize anticipated costs savings from business realignment actions,

•

threats associated with and efforts to combat terrorism,

•

uncertainties surrounding the ultimate resolution of outstanding legal proceedings, including the outcome of any appeals,

•

competitive market conditions and resulting effects on sales and pricing,

•

increases in raw material costs that cannot be recovered in product pricing,

•

the Company’s ability to manage costs related to insurance and employee retirement and health care benefits, and

•

global economic factors, including manufacturing activity, air travel trends, currency exchange rates, difficulties entering new markets and general economic conditions such as inflation, deflation, interest rates and credit availability.

The Company makes these statements as of the date of this disclosure, and undertakes no obligation to update them unless otherwise required by law.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company enters into forward exchange contracts and costless collar contracts, comprised of puts and calls, to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in both freely convertible and non-freely convertible foreign currencies. These contracts are with major financial institutions and the risk of loss is considered remote. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. In addition, the Company’s foreign locations, in the ordinary course of business, enter into financial guarantees through financial institutions, which enable customers to be reimbursed in the event of nonperformance by the Company. The total carrying and fair value of open contracts and any risk to the Company as a result of these arrangements is not material to the Company’s financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

Beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company considers Venezuela to be a highly inflationary economy therefore the United States dollar is the functional currency for the Company’s Venezuelan operations. The effect of treating Venezuela as a highly inflationary economy did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

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 defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2010. Based on this evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that has 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 since April 27, 2007, when a grand jury in the Southern District of Florida issued a subpoena to Parker ITR and the Company requiring the production of documents, in particular documents related to communications with competitors and customers related to Parker ITR’s business unit that manufactures marine hose, typically used in oil transfer. 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 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.

On May 15, 2007, the European Commission issued its initial Request for Information to the Company and Parker ITR. On August 2, 2007, the Japan Fair Trade Commission (JFTC) requested that Parker ITR submit a report to the JFTC on specific topics related to its investigation of marine hose suppliers. Brazilian competition authorities and Korean competition authorities commenced their investigations on November 14, 2007 and January 17, 2008, respectively. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) filed a statement of claim in the Federal Court of Australia on May 29, 2009 and named Parker ITR as a respondent. 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.

In addition, during this time period, four class action lawsuits were filed in the Southern District of Florida: Shipyard Supply LLC v. Bridgestone Corporation, et al., filed May 17, 2007; Expro Gulf Limited v. Bridgestone Corporation, et al., filed June 6, 2007; Bayside Rubber & Products, Inc. v. Trelleborg Industrie S.A., et al., filed June 25, 2007; Bayside Rubber & Products, Inc. v. Caleca, et al., filed July 12, 2007; and one in the Southern District of New York: Weeks Marine, Inc. v. Bridgestone Corporation, et al., filed July 27, 2007. On September 12, 2008, the plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated class action complaint. Plaintiffs have since filed another amended consolidated complaint naming prior owners of the Parker ITR business unit that manufactures and sells marine hose. Plaintiffs generally seek treble damages, a permanent injunction, attorneys’ fees, and pre-judgment and post-judgment interest.

The time period for the alleged illegal activities by Parker ITR’s marine hose business unit varies by jurisdiction. In the United States, the Department of Justice, which initiated the April 2007 grand jury subpoenas, alleges that the challenged activities commenced in the United States in 1999 and ended May 2, 2007. The Department of Justice and Parker ITR agreed to resolve this matter and on March 25, 2010, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas accepted this agreement between the parties, resulting in a fine of $2.29 million dollars. Parker ITR has paid this fine.

In Brazil, Parker ITR filed a procedural defense in January 2008. The Brazilian competition authorities have not yet responded to Parker ITR’s filing. The Brazilian competition authorities’ investigation is ongoing and the Company and Parker ITR continue to cooperate. The Brazilian authorities appear to be investigating the period from 1999 through May 2007. Because the Brazilian competition authorities have not yet responded to Parker ITR’s initial filing, the potential outcome of this investigation is uncertain and will depend on the resolution of numerous issues not yet addressed at the current preliminary stage of the investigation.

In Korea, the Korean Fair Trade Commission (KFTC) submitted several questionnaires to Parker ITR in connection with their investigation of Parker ITR’s marine hose bidding activities in Korea from 1999 to May 2, 2007. Parker ITR responded to each questionnaire and cooperated with

the KFTC. The KFTC issued its final report on July 2, 2009, which imposed a fine of KRW 42 million (which, as of July 31, 2009, was approximately $34 thousand) on Parker ITR. Parker ITR has paid this fine.

The JFTC completed its investigation and issued an administrative order requiring Parker ITR to take certain actions, including passing a board resolution that prohibited the challenged conduct in the future and to send letters to Parker ITR’s customers and competitors in Japan stating that Parker ITR would not engage in the challenged conduct in Japan in the future. Parker ITR has complied with the JFTC administrative order.

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.

Counsel for Parker ITR accepted service related to the ACCC’s statement of claim and hearings have been held in the matter. The ACCC is investigating conduct through 2007. On December 10, 2009, Parker ITR and the ACCC presented a proposed settlement to the Court which provides for a total fine of 675,000 Australian dollars, which was approved on April 13, 2010. Parker ITR has paid this fine, which, as of April 23, 2010, was approximately $626 thousand.

The Company and Parker ITR reached a settlement of the class action litigation in the United States, and the Court granted final approval of that settlement on January 13, 2010. On February 17, 2009, Parker ITR entered into a separate agreement to settle possible private causes of action outside the United States.

On August 16, 1990, the Company publicly announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase by the Company of up to 3.0 million shares of its common stock. From time to time, the Board of Directors has adjusted the number of shares authorized for repurchase under this program. On January 28, 2009, the Finance Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved an increase in the number of shares authorized for repurchase

under this program so that, beginning on such date, the aggregate number of shares authorized for repurchase was equal to 10 million. Subject to this overall limitation, each fiscal year the Company is authorized to repurchase an amount of common shares 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. There is no expiration date for this program.
