FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact they use words such as “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance or events. We have also included forward looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q concerning, among other things, our strategy, goals, plans and projections regarding our financial position, liquidity and capital resources, results of operations, market position, and product development. These statements are based on current estimates that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, our actual results could vary materially from our current expectations. There are a number of factors that could cause our actual results to differ from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. They include: economic recession; availability and cost of the raw materials we use to manufacture our products; our foreign operations and international markets, such as currency exchange rates, different regulatory environments, trade barriers, exchange controls, and social and political instability; changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate, including environmental, health and safety regulations; our ability to protect and defend our intellectual property; competition; our ability to retain our management and employees; demands on management resources; potential claims relating to our products; integrating acquisitions and achieving the expected savings and synergies; business divestitures; global or regional catastrophic events; energy costs; commodity prices; labor relations; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; and implementation of environmental remediation matters. We provide additional information about many of the specific risks we face in the “Risk Factors” Section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K. We can give no assurance that any goal or plan set forth in forward-looking statements can be achieved and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments.

KENNAMETAL INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)




1.
ORGANIZATION
From its founding in 1938, the McKenna family incorporated Kennametal Inc. in Pennsylvania in 1943. Kennametal Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, Kennametal or the Company) are a leading global manufacturer and supplier of tooling, engineered components and advanced materials consumed in production processes. We believe that our reputation for manufacturing excellence, as well as our technological expertise and innovation we deliver in our products and services, helps us to achieve a leading position in our primary markets. End users of our products include metalworking and machinery manufacturers and suppliers across a diverse array of industries, including aerospace, defense, transportation, machine tool, light machinery and heavy machinery, as well as producers and suppliers in a number of equipment-intensive industries such as coal mining, road construction and quarrying, as well as oil and gas exploration, refining, production and supply. Our end users' applications range from airframes to mining operations, engines to oil wells and turbochargers to processing. We operate two global business segments consisting of Industrial and Infrastructure.
 
2.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements, which include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries, should be read in conjunction with our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2013 was derived from the audited balance sheet included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim statements are unaudited; however, we believe that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods were made and all adjustments are normal adjustments. The results for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal year. Unless otherwise specified, any reference to a “year” is to a fiscal year ended June 30. For example, a reference to 2014 is to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2014. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Kennametal Inc. and its subsidiaries.

3.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Adopted
As of July 1, 2013, Kennametal adopted disclosure requirements related to reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. See Note 17 to these condensed consolidated financial statements for required disclosures. Other than the change in disclosures, the adoption of this guidance had no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of July 1, 2013, Kennametal adopted additional guidance on testing indefinite lived intangible assets for impairment. The guidance permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of an indefinite lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step impairment test. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

5.     ACQUISITIONS

TMB
On November 4, 2013, the Company completed its transaction to acquire the Tungsten Materials Business (TMB) from Allegheny Technologies Incorporated (ATI) which included all of the assets of TDY Industries, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of ATI, used or held for use by TDY in connection with the business; and all of the shares of TDY Limited and ATI Holdings SAS, both wholly-owned subsidiaries of ATI, for a purchase price of $607.0 million, net of cash acquired. We funded the acquisition primarily through a combination of cash from operations and available borrowings under our existing credit facility.

TMB, with approximately $340.0 million in annual sales in calendar 2012, is a leading producer of tungsten metallurgical powders, as well as tooling technologies and components. The business has approximately 1,175 employees in 12 locations across 7 countries. The acquisition aligns with the Company's long-term growth strategies, expands presence in aerospace and energy end markets, further augments the Company's tooling portfolio and accelerates our metallurgical strategy including planned tungsten carbide recycling and production.

As part of the acquisition of TMB, Kennametal incurred $2.4 million and $5.3 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 of acquisition-related costs, which are included in operating expense.

Purchase Price Allocation
In accordance with the accounting guidance for business combinations, the TMB acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2014 reflects the preliminary allocation of the purchase price and is subject to revision when appraisals are finalized, which is expected to be in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.

The preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is as follows:

KENNAMETAL INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)



In connection with this acquisition, we identified and valued certain intangible assets, including existing customer relationships, technologies and trademarks, as further discussed in Note 18. It is expected that the majority of the preliminary goodwill recorded of $240.9 million will be deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill is attributable to the operating synergies we expect to gain from the acquisition. These intangible assets are part of both the Industrial and Infrastructure segments.

TMB contributed net sales of $77.7 million and net loss of $4.4 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014. TMB contributed net sales of $122.5 million and net loss of $11.5 million during the five months ended March 31, 2014.

Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information
The following unaudited pro forma summary of operating results presents the consolidated results of operations as if the TMB acquisition had occurred on July 1, 2012. These amounts were calculated after applying our accounting policies and adjusting TMB's results to reflect increased depreciation and amortization expense resulting from recording fixed assets and intangible assets at fair value, as well as increased amortization resulting from recording inventory at fair value. The pro forma results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 exclude $2.5 million and $4.4 million of acquisition-related and restructuring-related pre-tax costs, respectively. The pro forma results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2013 includes $7.7 million and $8.4 million, respectively, of integration-related pre-tax costs. The pro forma results have been presented for comparative purposes only, include no expected sales or cost synergies and are not indicative of future results of operations or what would have occurred had the acquisition been made on July 1, 2012.

Unaudited pro forma summary of operating results of Kennametal, assuming the acquisition had occurred as of July 1, 2012, are as follows:

Emura
On August 1, 2013, the Company acquired the operating assets of Comercializadora Emura S.R.L. and certain related entities (Emura), based in La Paz, Bolivia, and secured related material sourcing agreements for a purchase price of $40.1 million, of which $26.1 million represents cash paid, of which $25.6 million was paid in fiscal year 2014 and $0.5 million was paid in fiscal year 2013, and $14.0 million of contingent consideration (see Note 6). Emura's principal operations is engaged in collecting, testing, processing and exporting tungsten ore material, and was a long-standing supplier to Kennametal. The addition of Emura enhances the Company's strategic tungsten sourcing capabilities to serve growth globally.

Other
On September 30, 2013, the Company completed one other acquisition in the Infrastructure segment for $2.0 million.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels to prioritize the inputs used in valuations, as defined below:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

10

Table of Contents

KENNAMETAL INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)



Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable.
As of March 31, 2014, the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:

The fair value of contingent consideration payable that was classified as Level 3 relates to our probability assessments of expected future milestone targets, primarily associated with product delivery, related to the Emura acquisition. The contingent consideration is to be paid over the next 3 years. During the current quarter the Company reassessed this contingent consideration and determined that no adjustment to the fair value was deemed necessary and that no changes in the expected outcome have occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
As part of our financial risk management program, we use certain derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and, therefore, hold no derivative instruments for trading purposes. We account for derivative instruments as a hedge of the related asset, liability, firm commitment or anticipated transaction, when the derivative is specifically designated and qualifies as a hedge of such items. Our objective in managing foreign exchange exposures with derivative instruments is to reduce volatility in cash flow. We measure hedge effectiveness by assessing the changes in the fair value or expected future cash flows of the hedged item. The ineffective portions are recorded in other(income) expense, net.

FAIR VALUE HEDGES

Fixed-to-floating interest rate swap contracts, designated as fair value hedges, are entered into from time to time to hedge our exposure to fair value fluctuations on a portion of our fixed rate debt. We had no such contracts outstanding at March 31, 2014 or June 30, 2013.
CASH FLOW HEDGES
Range forward contracts (a transaction where both a put option is purchased and a call option is sold) are designated as cash flow hedges and hedge anticipated cash flows from cross-border intercompany sales of products and services. Gains and losses realized on these contracts at maturity are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, and are recognized as a component of other (income) expense, net when the underlying sale of products or services is recognized into earnings. The notional amount of the contracts translated into U.S. dollars at March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, was $106.1 million and $102.2 million, respectively. The time value component of the fair value of range forward contracts is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Assuming the market rates remain constant with the rates at March 31, 2014, we expect to recognize into earnings in the next 12 months $0.2 million of losses on outstanding derivatives.
In February 2012, we settled forward starting interest rate swap contracts to convert $150.0 million of our floating rate debt to fixed rate debt. Upon settlement, we made a cash payment of $22.4 million. The loss is being amortized as a component of interest expense over the term of the related debt using the effective interest rate method. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, $0.5 million and $0.5 million was recognized as interest expense, respectively. During the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, $1.5 million and $1.4 million was recognized as interest expense, respectively.

8.    RESTRUCTURING
During the December quarter, we announced our intent to implement restructuring actions to achieve synergies across Kennametal as a result of the TMB acquisition. During the March quarter we continued to implement these restructuring actions, primarily related to employment reductions. These and other restructuring actions are expected to be completed over the next three years. Total pre-tax charges are expected to be in the range of $40 million to $50 million, and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures.
In conjunction with these initiatives, we recorded restructuring charges of $5.0 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2014.
The restructuring accrual is recorded in other current liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheet and the amount attributable to each segment is as follows:

INVENTORIES
We used the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of valuing inventories for 44 percent and 52 percent of total inventories at March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Because inventory valuations under the LIFO method are based on an annual determination of quantities and costs as of June 30 of each year, the interim LIFO valuations are based on our projections of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Therefore, the interim financial results are subject to any final year-end LIFO inventory adjustments.

LONG-TERM DEBT
Our $600 million five-year, multi-currency, revolving credit facility (2011 Credit Agreement) requires us to comply with various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including two financial covenants: a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as those terms are defined in the agreement). We were in compliance with all covenants as of March 31, 2014. We had $338.7 million and $3.6 million of borrowings outstanding under the 2011 Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Borrowings under the 2011 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries. The 2011 Credit Agreement matures in April 2018.

13.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain of our locations.
Superfund Sites We are involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at various sites designated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) as Superfund sites. For certain of these sites, we have evaluated the claims and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites that are being monitored, the matters have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation, the timing and extent of remedial action that may be required by governmental authorities or the amount of our liability alone or in relation to that of any other PRP.
Other Environmental Matters We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental issues. At March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the balances of these reserves were $11.3 million and $5.1 million, respectively. These reserves represent anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues. The change in the reserve was due to a $6.0 million increase related to a recent acquisition and $0.2 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustments recorded during the nine months ended March 31, 2014.
The reserves we have established for environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the costs of addressing all identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the USEPA, other governmental agencies, and by the PRP groups in which we are participating. Although the reserves currently appear to be sufficient to cover these environmental liabilities, there are uncertainties associated with environmental liabilities, and we can give no assurance that our estimate of any environmental liability will not increase or decrease in the future. The reserved and unreserved liabilities for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government on these matters.
We maintain a Corporate Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Department to monitor compliance with environmental regulations and to oversee remediation activities. In addition, we have designated EHS coordinators who are responsible for each of our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EHS Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we review financial provisions and reserves for environmental contingencies and adjust these reserves when appropriate.

14.
INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was 24.1 percent and 18.5 percent, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by the impact of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 that was enacted during the prior year quarter, which extended the credit for the increasing research activities.
The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was 28.5 percent and 21.7 percent, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by a $7.2 million tax charge incurred in the second quarter related to a change in assertion of a foreign subsidiary's certain undistributed earnings, which are no longer considered permanently reinvested. This change in assertion during the second quarter is related to the repatriation of $57.0 million. All earnings of other non U.S. subsidiaries are indefinitely reinvested and no deferred taxes have been provided on those earnings. This tax charge was partially offset by a lower relative U.S. current year earnings contribution.

15.
EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while diluted earnings per share is calculated to reflect the potential dilution that occurs related to the issuance of capital stock under stock option grants, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. The difference between basic and diluted earnings per share relates solely to the effect of capital stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units.

17

Table of Contents

KENNAMETAL INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)



For purposes of determining the number of diluted shares outstanding, weighted average shares outstanding for basic earnings per share calculations were increased due solely to the dilutive effect of unexercised capital stock options, unvested restricted stock awards and unvested restricted stock units by 1.0 million shares and 1.3 million shares for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and 1.0 million shares and 1.2 million shares for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Unexercised capital stock options, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards of 0.2 million shares and 0.3 million shares for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and 0.3 million shares and 1.0 million shares for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the option exercise price was greater than the average market price, and therefore the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired companies. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested at least annually for impairment. We perform our annual impairment tests during the June quarter in connection with our annual planning process, unless there are impairment indicators that warrant a test prior to that. We noted no impairment indicators warranting additional testing.

The assignment of goodwill for the TMB acquisition has not yet been completed and therefore has not been allocated between the segments.

The Company is currently exploring strategic alternatives for a portion of its Infrastructure business, which has an estimated net book value of approximately $39.0 million as of March 31, 2014.  As the evaluation is not yet complete, the Company cannot determine if an impairment loss is either probable or estimable.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2014, we recorded amortization expense of $18.8 million related to our other intangible assets and favorable currency translation adjustments of $3.5 million.
On November 4, 2013, we acquired TMB from ATI, the operations of which are included in both the Industrial and Infrastructure segments. As a result of the acquisition, we increased goodwill by $240.9 million and other intangible assets by $125.3 million based on our preliminary purchase price allocations. Other intangible assets consisted of customer-related intangibles, technology-based intangibles and trademarks. We are in the process of assessing the allocation of goodwill and other intangible assets, as well as the useful lives of the other intangible assets. The majority of both the goodwill and other intangible assets will be allocated to the Infrastructure segment, as this is primarily where the operating synergies associated with the acquisition are expected to be realized. The Company estimates that acquired intangibles will add approximately $8 million to annual amortization expense per year.
On August 1, 2013, we acquired the assets of Emura in our Infrastructure segment. As a result of the acquisition we increased other intangible assets by $16.4 million based on our preliminary purchase price allocations. We recorded supplier relationship intangible assets in technology-based and other of $15.9 million with an estimated useful life of 20 years, contract-based intangibles of $0.4 million with an estimated useful life of 3 years and trademarks of $0.1 million with an estimated useful life of 20 years. These intangible assets will be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives.

Item 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS




OVERVIEW

Kennametal Inc. is a leading global manufacturer and supplier of tooling, engineered components and advanced materials consumed in production processes. We deliver productivity to customers seeking peak performance in demanding environments by providing innovative custom and standard wear-resistant solutions. To provide these solutions, we harness our knowledge of advanced materials and application development with a commitment to environmental sustainability. Our solutions are built around industry-essential technology platforms. These include metalworking tools, engineered components, surface technologies and earth cutting tools that are mission-critical to the performance of our customers battling extreme conditions such as fatigue wear, corrosion and high temperatures. We believe that our reputation for manufacturing excellence, as well as our technological expertise and innovation we deliver in our products and services, help us to achieve a leading position in our primary markets: general engineering, transportation, aerospace, defense, energy and earthworks. End users of our products include metalworking and machinery manufacturers and suppliers across a diverse array of industries, including aerospace, defense, transportation, machine tool, light machinery and heavy machinery, as well as producers and suppliers in a number of equipment-intensive industries such as coal mining, road construction and quarrying, as well as oil and gas exploration, refining, production and supply. Our end users' applications range from airframes to mining operations, engines to oil wells and turbochargers to processing. We believe we are one of the largest global providers of consumable metalcutting tools and tooling supplies.

Our sales of $755.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 increased 15 percent compared to sales for the March quarter one year ago. Operating income was $76.8 million, an increase of $1.8 million as compared to $75.0 million in the prior year quarter. The Tungsten Materials Business (TMB) contributed sales of $77.7 million during the quarter and had an operating loss of $4.3 million, which included the impacts of inventory purchase accounting step-up of $7.7 million and depreciation and amortization related to fixed and intangible asset purchase accounting step-up of $3.9 million. Operating income increased primarily due to higher sales volume.

Integration efforts are on-track related to the TMB acquisition and we recorded pre-tax restructuring charges of $2.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

We reported current quarter earnings per diluted share of $0.64, which included TMB operating loss of $0.06, acquisition-related charges of $0.02 and restructuring and related charges of $0.02.

We generated cash flow from operating activities of $153.2 million and capital expenditures were $86.0 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2014.

We invested further in technology and innovation to continue delivering a high level of new products to our customers. Research and development expenses included in operating expense totaled $11.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The following narrative provides further discussion and analysis of our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources, as well as other pertinent matters.

Item 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)




RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS

SALES

Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014 were $755.2 million, an increase of $99.8 million or 15 percent, from $655.4 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in sales was driven by the impact of the acquisition of TMB of 12 percent, organic growth of 3 percent and the favorable impact from more business days of 1 percent, partially offset by a 1 percent decrease from unfavorable currency exchange. The increase in sales was primarily due to improved demand from customers in our Industrial end markets and distribution sales for the quarter, as well as improvement in the energy market, partially offset by continuing weakness in the mining sector. Excluding TMB, sales increased by approximately 9 percent in the energy markets, 8 percent in general engineering and 6 percent in transportation, while earthworks market decreased by 6 percent and aerospace and defense decreased by 5 percent, respectively.

Sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 were $2,065.0 million, an increase of $147.0 million or 8 percent, from $1,918.0 million in the prior year period. The increase in sales was driven by growth related to the TMB acquisition of 6 percent and the favorable impact from more business days of 2 percent. The increase in sales was primarily due to improved demand from customers in our Industrial end markets and distribution sales, partially offset by weakness in the mining sector. Excluding TMB, sales increased by approximately 8 percent in general engineering, 5 percent in transportation and 4 percent in the energy markets, while earthworks decreased by 5 percent and aerospace and defense decreased by 3 percent, respectively.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $239.0 million, an increase of $30.5 million from $208.5 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to organic sales growth, the impact of the TMB acquisition, an inventory reduction initiative resulting in an unfavorable impact in the prior year, favorable business mix and favorable raw material costs. The gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was 31.6 percent, as compared to 31.8 percent generated in the prior year quarter. The decrease in the gross profit margin was primarily driven by the dilutive effects of the TMB acquisition, as a result of purchase accounting.

Gross profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was $644.2 million, an increase of $27.9 million from $616.3 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to an inventory reduction initiative resulting in an unfavorable impact in the prior year, lower raw material costs, organic sales growth and the impact of TMB, partially offset by higher manufacturing spend and a non-recurring physical inventory adjustment of $5.7 million related to our mining business. The gross profit margin for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was 31.2 percent, as compared to 32.1 percent generated in the prior year period. The decrease in the gross profit margin was primarily driven by the dilutive effects of the TMB acquisition, as a result of purchase accounting.

OPERATING EXPENSE

Operating expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased $24.0 million or 18.7 percent to $152.3 million as compared to $128.3 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to additional operating expenditures related to TMB of $12.0 million, higher professional fees of $4.8 million, higher employment costs of $3.6 million driven mainly by an increase in commissions due to higher sales and our annual employee merit increase and TMB acquisition-related costs of $2.4 million.

Operating expense for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 increased $40.0 million or 10.1 percent to $435.0 million as compared to $395.0 million in the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to additional operating expenditures related to TMB of $19.4 million, higher employment costs of $11.2 million driven mainly by our annual employee merit increase and an increase in commissions due to higher sales and TMB acquisition-related costs of $5.3 million.

RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
During the second quarter, we announced our intent to implement restructuring actions to achieve synergies across Kennametal and TMB by consolidating operations among both organizations, reducing administrative overhead and leveraging the supply chain. Consistent with this announcement, we initiated actions related to employment reductions and recorded restructuring charges of $2.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, Industrial and Infrastructure restructuring and related charges were $1.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively.
During the nine months ended March 31, 2014, we initiated actions related to employment reductions and recorded restructuring charges of $5.0 million. Industrial and Infrastructure charges were $2.6 million and $2.4 million, respectively for the nine months ended March 31, 2014. See Note 8 in our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Total restructuring costs are expected to be in the range of $40 million to $50 million and are expected to be completed over the next three years. Annual ongoing benefits from these actions are expected to be in the range of $35 million to $45 million, once these initiatives are fully implemented.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2014 increased $1.4 million to $8.9 million as compared to
$7.5 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to higher year-over-year borrowings due to acquisitions.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2014 interest expense increased $3.6 million to $24.0 million as compared to $20.4 million in the prior year period. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to higher year-over-year borrowings due to acquisitions and the higher borrowing rate for our $400 million 2.65 percent Senior Unsecured Notes issued in November 2012.
 
OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET

Other income, net for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $0.6 million compared to other expense, net of $0.7 million for the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to favorable currency exchange rate gains of $1.4 million.

Other expense, net for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was $0.9 million compared to $0.5 million for the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to unfavorable currency exchange rate losses of $0.4 million, partially offset by higher interest income.

INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was 24.1 percent and 18.5 percent, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by the impact of the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 that was enacted during the prior year quarter, which extended the credit for the increasing research activities.
The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was 28.5 percent and 21.7 percent, respectively. The increase was primarily driven by a $7.2 million tax charge incurred in the second quarter related to a change in assertion of a foreign subsidiary's certain undistributed earnings, which are no longer considered permanently reinvested. This change in assertion during the second quarter is related to the repatriation of $57.0 million. All earnings of other non U.S. subsidiaries are indefinitely reinvested and no deferred taxes have been provided on those earnings. This tax charge was partially offset by a lower relative U.S. current year earnings contribution.

BUSINESS SEGMENT REVIEW

We operate two reportable segments consisting of Industrial and Infrastructure. Expenses that are not allocated are reported in Corporate. Segment determination is based upon internal organizational structure, the manner in which we organize segments for making operating decisions and assessing performance, the availability of separate financial results and materiality considerations.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, Industrial sales increased by 13 percent due to 8 percent growth related to the TMB acquisition, 5 percent organic growth and a 1 percent increase from more business days, partially offset by a 1 percent decrease from unfavorable currency exchange. Excluding TMB, sales increased by 8 percent in general engineering and 5 percent in transportation, while aerospace and defense decreased by 3 percent. General engineering increased due to continued demand from distribution channels and the transportation market benefited from increased demand in the light vehicle markets world-wide. Sales increased in all geographies. On a regional basis, excluding TMB, sales increased by approximately 11 percent in Asia, 9 percent in Europe and 1 percent in the Americas. The Americas sales were dampened by the weather impacts in North America. The sales increase in Asia was driven by the growth in general engineering, while the transportation end market remained relatively flat as compared to the prior year quarter. The sales increase in Europe was primarily driven by the performance in transportation and the general engineering end markets, partially offset by the decline in the aerospace and defense end market. The sales increase in the Americas was primarily driven by the performance in the general engineering end market, partially offset by the decline in the transportation end market.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, Industrial operating income increased by $0.2 million. Industrial operating
income remained relatively flat, despite the dilutive effects of TMB purchase accounting of $6.7 million, acquisition-related charges of $1.0 million and restructuring and related charges of $1.6 million. Industrial operating margin was 12.9 percent compared with 14.5 percent in the prior year.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2014, Industrial sales increased by 8 percent due to 4 percent growth related to acquisitions, 3 percent organic growth and 1 percent due to more business days. Excluding TMB, sales increased by 8 percent in general engineering, 7 percent in transportation and 1 percent in aerospace and defense. General engineering increased due to improvements in production and overall demand for machinery and demand from distribution channels and the transportation market benefited from increased demand in the light vehicle markets world-wide. On a regional basis, excluding TMB, sales increased by approximately 7 percent in Asia, 6 percent in Europe and 1 percent in the Americas. The Americas sales were dampened by the weather impacts in North America. The sales increase in Asia was primarily driven by the performance in the general engineering and aerospace and defense end markets, partially offset by a decline in the transportation end market. The sales increase in Europe was primarily driven by the performance in the transportation and general engineering end markets, slightly offset by performance in aerospace and defense end markets. The sales increase in the Americas was primarily driven by the performance in the general engineering and transportation end markets, while aerospace and defense remained relatively flat.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2014, Industrial operating income decreased by $6.7 million. Industrial operating
income decreased due to the results of the TMB acquisition and related charges of $14.1 million, partially offset by increased sales volume. Industrial operating margin was 11.2 percent compared with 12.8 percent in the prior year.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, Infrastructure sales increased by 18 percent, driven by 16 percent growth related to the TMB acquisition and a 3 percent increase from more business days, partially offset by a 1 percent decrease from unfavorable currency exchange. Organic growth was flat. Excluding TMB, sales increased by 9 percent in energy, partially offset by a 6 percent decrease in earthworks. Energy sales continued to improve year over year reflecting improving demand in oil and gas drilling activity in the U.S., coupled with continued gains in production, completion and process applications. Earthworks sales decreased due to persistently weak underground coal and surface mining markets in the U.S. and China. On a regional basis, excluding TMB, sales grew by 4 percent in Europe and 3 percent in the Americas, partially offset by a 9 percent decline in Asia. The Americas sales were dampened by the weather impacts in North America. The sales increase in Europe was driven primarily by the performance in the energy end market, partially offset by a decline in the earthworks end market. The sales increase in the Americas was driven primarily by the performance in the energy end market. The sales decrease in Asia was driven primarily by the decline in the earthworks end market, slightly offset by the performance in the energy end markets.

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, Infrastructure operating income increased by $1.9 million. Infrastructure operating income remained relatively flat, despite the dilutive effects of TMB purchase accounting of $4.9 million, acquisition-related charges of $1.5 million and restructuring and related charges of $1.2 million. Infrastructure operating margin was 7.9 percent compared with 8.6 percent in the prior year.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2014, Infrastructure sales increased by 7 percent, driven by 9 percent growth related to the TMB acquisition and a 1 percent favorable impact from more business days, partially offset by a 2 percent organic decline and a 1 percent decrease from unfavorable currency exchange. Excluding TMB, sales increased by 3 percent in energy, offset by a 5 percent decrease in earthworks. Earthworks sales decreased due to persistently weak underground coal mining and surface markets in China and the U.S. Energy sales improved year over year reflecting improving demand in oil and gas drilling activity in the U.S., coupled with continued gains in production, completion and process applications. On a regional basis, excluding TMB, sales grew 5 percent in Europe and declined by 6 percent in Asia and 3 percent in the Americas. The Americas sales were dampened by the weather impacts in North America. The sales increase in Europe was driven primarily by the performance in the energy end markets. The sales decrease in Asia was driven primarily by the decline in the earthworks end market. The sales decrease in the Americas was driven by both the decline in the energy and earthworks end markets.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2014, Infrastructure operating income decreased by $13.3 million. Infrastructure operating income decreased due to the results of TMB acquisition and related charges of $7.2 million and a non recurring physical inventory adjustment of $5.7 million related to our mining business. Infrastructure operating margin was 7.1 percent compared with 9.1 percent in the prior year.

The Company is currently exploring strategic alternatives for a portion of its Infrastructure business, which has an estimated net book value of approximately $39.0 million as of March 31, 2014.  As the evaluation is not yet complete, the Company cannot determine if an impairment loss is either probable or estimable.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash flow from operations and borrowings against our five-year, multi-currency, revolving credit facility (2011 Credit Agreement) are the primary sources of funding for capital expenditures and internal growth. Year to date March 31, 2014, cash flow provided by operating activities was $153.2 million, driven by our operating performance, and we had outstanding borrowings on our 2011 Credit Agreement of $338.7 million, primarily used to fund the acquisition of TMB.

Item 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)




The 2011 Credit Agreement is used to augment cash from operations and as an additional source of funds. The 2011 Credit Agreement permits revolving credit loans of up to $600.0 million for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. The 2011 Credit Agreement allows for borrowings in U.S. dollars, euro, Canadian dollars, pound sterling and Japanese yen. Interest payable under the 2011 Credit Agreement is based upon the type of borrowing under the facility and may be (1) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, (2) the greater of the prime rate or the Federal Funds effective rate plus an applicable margin, or (3) fixed as negotiated by us. The 2011 Credit Agreement matures in April 2018.

The 2011 Credit Agreement requires us to comply with various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including two financial covenants: a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as those terms are defined in the agreement). We were in compliance with all covenants as of March 31, 2014. For the nine months ended March 31, 2014, average daily borrowings outstanding under the 2011 Credit Agreement were approximately $221.9 million. Borrowings under the 2011 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries.

Other than the repatriation of $57.0 million discussed in Note 14 set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we consider the unremitted earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries that have not previously been taxed in the U.S. to be permanently reinvested. As of March 31, 2014, cash and cash equivalents of $159.2 million and short-term intercompany advances made by our foreign subsidiaries to our U.S. parent of $25.3 million would not be available for use in the U.S. on a long term basis, without incurring U.S. federal and state income tax consequences. We have not, nor do we anticipate the need to, repatriate funds to the U.S. to satisfy domestic liquidity needs arising in the ordinary course of business, including liquidity needs associated with our domestic debt service requirements.

At March 31, 2014, cash and cash equivalents were $161.8 million, total debt was $1,135.6 million and total Kennametal Shareowners' equity was $1,901.8 million. Our current senior credit ratings are at investment grade levels. We believe that our current financial position, liquidity and credit ratings provide access to the capital markets. We continue to closely monitor our liquidity position and the condition of the capital markets, as well as the counterparty risk of our credit providers.

There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments since June 30, 2013.
Cash Flow Provided by Operating Activities
During the nine months ended March 31, 2014, cash flow provided by operating activities was $153.2 million, compared to $150.4 million for the prior year period. Cash flow provided by operating activities for the current year period consisted of net income and non-cash items amounting to an inflow of $237.5 million, partially offset by changes in certain assets and liabilities netting to an outflow of $84.3 million. The primary drivers of the changes in certain assets and liabilities were an increase in accounts receivable of $35.8 million mainly due to higher sales, an increase in inventory of $34.8 million primarily driven by higher work in process and finished goods inventory and a decrease in other of $11.0 million.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2013, cash flow provided by operating activities consisted of net income and non-cash items amounting to an inflow of $259.4 million, partially offset by changes in certain assets and liabilities netting to an outflow of $109.0 million. Contributing to the changes in certain assets and liabilities was a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $132.2 million primarily driven by lower accounts payable, lower accrued payroll and payment of $19.0 million of incentive compensation and a decrease in accrued income taxes of $29.5 million, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $37.6 million due to lower sales volume, a decrease in inventory of $9.2 million primarily driven by our inventory reduction initiatives and an increase in other of $5.9 million.
Cash Flow Used for Investing Activities
Cash flow used for investing activities was $719.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014, compared to
$52.2 million in the prior year period. During the current year period, cash flow used for investing activities included $634.6 million used for acquisitions, primarily TMB of $607.0 million and two other acquisitions in the Infrastructure segment. Capital expenditures, net were $85.0 million, which consisted primarily of equipment upgrades.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2013, cash flow used for investing activities included capital expenditures, net of $52.0 million, which consisted primarily of equipment upgrades.

Cash Flow Provided by Financing Activities
Cash flow provided by financing activities was $350.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $106.4 million in the prior year period. During the current year period, cash flow provided by financing activities primarily included $385.9 million net increase in borrowings and $21.5 million of dividend reinvestment and the effect of employee benefit and stock plans. These cash flows were partially offset by $42.3 million of cash dividends paid to Shareowners and $14.1 million used for the purchase of capital stock.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2013, cash flow provided by financing activities included $186.1 million net increase in borrowings which included $3.7 million of borrowings outstanding on our revolving credit facility, $26.7 million from the sale of capital stock in a subsidiary in India and $13.3 million of dividend reinvestment and the effect of employee benefit and stock plans. These cash flows were offset by $78.5 million used for the purchase of capital stock and $38.4 million of cash dividends paid to Shareowners.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Working capital was $949.7 million at March 31, 2014, a decrease of $82.2 million from $1,031.9 million at June 30, 2013. Cash and and cash equivalents decreased $215.5 million and current maturities of long-term debt, capital leases and notes payable increased $69.1 million mainly to fund the TMB acquisition. Other current liabilities increased $23.7 million, accounts payable increased by $13.0 million and accrued expenses increased by $9.4 million mainly driven by the impact of recent acquisitions. These items were partially offset by an increase in inventory of $160.1 million mainly due to the TMB acquisition contributing $98.7 million, an increase in accounts receivable of $83.1 million mainly due to the impact of the TMB acquisition of $41.2 million and higher sales, partially offset by improved collections and an increase in other current assets of $11.5 million. Currency exchange effects accounted for $7.8 million of the working capital decrease.

Property, plant and equipment, net increased $144.1 million from $741.5 million at June 30, 2013 to $885.6 million at March 31, 2014, primarily due to $135.8 million from acquisitions during the current period, capital additions of $77.4 million and favorable currency exchange impact of $11.7 million, partially offset by depreciation expense of $76.3 million.

At March 31, 2014, other assets were $1,450.6 million, an increase of $390.5 million from $1,060.1 million at June 30, 2013. The primary drivers for the increase were an increase in goodwill of $252.8 million, an increase in other intangible assets of $126.4 million and an increase in other assets of $15.7 million. The change in goodwill was due to the TMB acquisition impact of $240.9 million during the current period and favorable currency exchange effects of $11.9 million. The change in other intangible assets was due to a $141.7 million acquisition impact during the current period and favorable currency exchange effects of $3.5 million, offset by amortization expense of $18.8 million. The change in other assets was primarily due to lower pension discount rates.

Long-term debt and capital leases increased by $318.5 million to $1,022.1 million at March 31, 2014 from $703.6 million at June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily driven by $319.3 million borrowings under the 2011 Credit Agreement for the acquisition of TMB.

Kennametal Shareowners' equity was $1,901.8 million at March 31, 2014, an increase of $120.0 million from $1,781.8 million at June 30, 2013. The increase was primarily due to net income attributable to Kennametal of $112.9 million, currency exchange impacts of $34.9 million and capital stock issued under employee benefit and stock plans of $29.0 million, partially offset by cash dividends paid to Shareowners of $42.3 million and the purchase of capital stock of $14.1 million.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain of our locations.

Superfund Sites We are involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at various sites designated by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) as Superfund sites. For certain of these sites, we have evaluated the claims and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites that are being monitored, the matters have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation, the timing and extent of remedial action that may be required by governmental authorities or the amount of our liability alone or in relation to that of any other PRP.

Item 2.     MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)




Other Environmental Matters We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental issues. At March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the balances of these reserves were $11.3 million and $5.1 million, respectively. These reserves represent anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues. The change in the reserve was due to a $6.0 million increase related to a recent acquisition and $0.2 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustments recorded during the nine months ended March 31, 2014.
 
The reserves we have established for environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the costs of addressing all identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the USEPA, other governmental agencies, and by the PRP groups in which we are participating. Although the reserves currently appear to be sufficient to cover these environmental liabilities, there are uncertainties associated with environmental liabilities, and we can give no assurance that our estimate of any environmental liability will not increase or decrease in the future. The reserved and unreserved liabilities for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government on these matters.

We maintain a Corporate Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) Department, to monitor compliance with environmental regulations and to oversee remediation activities. In addition, we have designated EHS coordinators who are responsible for each of our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EHS Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we review financial provisions and reserves for environmental contingencies and adjust these reserves when appropriate.

DISCUSSION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies since June 30, 2013.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a description of new accounting standards.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no material changes to our market risk exposure since June 30, 2013.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company's management evaluated, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). The Company's disclosure controls were designed to provide a reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, the controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the controls' stated goals. Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance at March 31, 2014 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

The SEC's general guidance permits the exclusion of an assessment of the effectiveness of a registrant's disclosure controls and procedures as they relate to its internal controls over financial reporting for an acquired business during the first year following such acquisition, if among other circumstances and factors there is not adequate time between the acquisition date and the date of assessment. As previously noted in this Form 10-Q, the Company completed the acquisition of TMB and Emura on November 4, 2013 and August 1, 2013, respectively. TMB represents 17 percent of the Company's total assets as of March 31, 2014. Emura represents 1 percent of the Company's total assets as of March 31, 2014. Management's assessment and conclusion on the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2014 excluded an assessment of the internal control over financial reporting of TMB and Emura.
