NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2006, and the related
condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for the three
months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for
the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, are unaudited. In managements opinion, all
adjustments comprising normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such
condensed consolidated financial statements have been made.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes in this Quarterly
Report are presented as permitted by Regulation S-X and do not contain certain information included
in our annual financial statements and notes to the financial statements. Accordingly, the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 presented in our 2005 Annual
Report.
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform with the current
period presentation.
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R), ShareBased Payment using the modified
prospective application method, and therefore, have not restated results for prior periods. Under
this method, stock based compensation expense for the first quarter of 2006 includes compensation
expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested at the date of
adoption, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions
of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Stock-based compensation expense for
all stock-based compensation awards granted after the date of adoption is based on the grant-date
fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R).
In conjunction with the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), we selected the alternative transition
method to determine the net excess tax benefits that would have qualified as such as of January 1,
2006. See Note 3 for further discussion on stock-based compensation.
Other Accounting Policies
Other significant accounting policies, for which no significant changes have occurred in the
quarter ended March 31, 2006, are detailed in Note 1 of our 2005 Annual Report.
Accounting Developments
Pronouncements Implemented
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 123(R). We
adopted SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006 utilizing the modified prospective application method.
See Note 3 for additional information regarding the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, Inventory Costs, an amendment of Accounting
Research Bulletin No. 43, Chapter 4. SFAS No. 151 amends Accounting Research Bulletin No. 43,
Chapter 4 and seeks to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense,
freight, handling costs, and wasted materials by requiring those items to be recognized as current
period charges. Additionally, SFAS No. 151 requires that fixed production overheads be allocated to
conversion costs based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 is
effective prospectively for inventory costs incurred in fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005.
Our adoption of SFAS No. 151, effective beginning in the first quarter of 2006, did not have a
material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operation.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. SFAS
No. 154 establishes new standards on accounting for changes in accounting principles. All such
changes must be accounted for by retrospective application to
5
the financial statements of prior periods unless it is impracticable to do so. SFAS No. 154
replaces APB No. 20, Accounting Changes, and SFAS No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim
Periods. However, it carries forward the guidance in those pronouncements with respect to
accounting for changes in estimates, changes in the reporting entity and the correction of errors.
Our adoption of SFAS No. 154 in the first quarter of 2006 had no impact on our consolidated
financial position or results of operations.
Pronouncements Not Yet Implemented
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial
Instruments, which amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities, and SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities. SFAS No. 155 improves the financial reporting of certain hybrid
financial instruments and simplifies the accounting for these instruments. In particular, SFAS No.
155:
|
|
|
permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an
embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation; |
|
|
|
|
clarifies which interest-only and principal-only strips are not subject to the
requirements of SFAS No. 133; |
|
|
|
|
establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to
identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial
instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation; |
|
|
|
|
clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not
embedded derivatives; and |
|
|
|
|
amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity
from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other
than another derivative financial instrument. |
SFAS No. 155 is effective for all financial instruments acquired or issued after the beginning
of an entitys fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. We do not expect the adoption of
SFAS No. 155 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition and results of
operations.
In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets
an amendment of Statement No. 140. SFAS No. 156 clarifies when an obligation to service financial
assets should be separately recognized as a servicing asset or a servicing liability, requires that
a separately recognized servicing asset or servicing liability be initially measured at fair value
and permits an entity with a separately recognized servicing asset or servicing liability to choose
either the amortization method or fair value method for subsequent measurement. SFAS No. 156 is
effective for all separately recognized servicing assets and liabilities acquired or issued after
the beginning of an entitys fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. We do not expect
the adoption of SFAS No. 156 to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of
operations.
Although there are no other final pronouncements recently issued that we have not adopted and
that we expect to impact reported financial information or disclosures, accounting promulgating
bodies have a number of pending projects which may directly impact us. We continue to evaluate the
status of these projects and as these projects become final, we will provide disclosures regarding
the likelihood and magnitude of their impact, if any.
2. Discontinued Operations
General Services Group During the first quarter of 2005 we made a definitive decision to
divest certain non-core service operations, collectively called the General Services Group (GSG),
and accordingly, evaluated impairment pursuant to a held for sale concept as opposed to the
previously held and used concept. As part of our decision to sell, we allocated $12.3 million of
goodwill to GSG based on its relative fair value to the total reporting units estimated fair
value. We recognized impairment charges aggregating $30.1 million during 2005 relating to GSG as
the number of potential buyers diminished to one purchaser during the bidding process, and the
business underperformed during the year due to the pending sale. Of the $30.1 million impairment,
$5.9 million was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2005. Effective December 31,
2005, we sold GSG to Furmanite, a unit of Dallas-based Xanser Corporation for approximately $16
million in gross cash proceeds, including $2 million held in escrow pending final settlement,
subject to final working capital adjustments. The sale excluded approximately $12 million of net
accounts receivable and resulted in a pre-tax loss of $3.8 million, which was recognized in the
fourth quarter of 2005. The ultimate purchase price of GSG is subject to final working capital
adjustments, which remain under negotiation, and is expected to be resolved in the fourth quarter
of 2006. The outcome of such negotiations could result in a change in the ultimate loss on sale in
the period of resolution. We used approximately $11 million of the net cash proceeds to reduce our
indebtedness in January 2006. We have allocated estimated interest
6
expense related to this repayment to each period presented based upon then prevailing interest
rates. As a result of this sale, we have presented the results of operations of GSG as discontinued
operations for all periods presented.

3. Stock-Based Compensation Plans
We adopted SFAS No. 123(R) on January 1, 2006. Prior to January 1, 2006, we accounted for
stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method as set forth in Accounting Principles
Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related
interpretations as permitted by SFAS No. 123. Accordingly, we recognized compensation expense for
restricted stock and other equity awards over the applicable vesting period, however we did not
recognize compensation expense for stock options for the three months ending March 31, 2005,
because the options were granted at market value on the date of grant.
The following table illustrates the effect of stock-based compensation on net earnings and
earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2005, if we had applied the fair value
recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to all stock-based employee compensation, calculated using
the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

We adopted SFAS No. 123(R) under the modified prospective application method. Under this
method, we recorded stock-based compensation expense of $2.8 million ($3.9 million pre-tax) for the
three months ended March 31, 2006 for all awards granted on or after the date of adoption and for
the portion of previously granted awards that remain unvested at the date of adoption over the
remaining vesting period. Accordingly, prior period amounts have not been restated. In accordance
with SFAS No. 123(R), we adjust share-based compensation on a quarterly basis for changes to the
estimate of expected equity award forfeitures based on actual forfeiture experience. Currently, our
stock-based compensation relates to stock options, restricted stock and other equity-based awards.
It is our policy to set the exercise price of stock options at the closing price of our common
stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the date such grants are authorized by our Board of
Directors. Options granted to officers, other employees and directors allow for the purchase of
common shares
at or above the fair market value of our stock on the date the options are granted, although
no options have been granted above fair market value. Generally, options become exercisable over a
staggered period ranging from one to five years (most typically from one to three years). Options
generally expire ten years from the date of the grant or within a short period of time following
the termination of
7
employment or cessation of services by an option holder; however, as described
in greater detail under Modifications below, the expiration provisions relating to certain
outstanding option awards that have been modified.
Stock Options Information related to stock options issued to officers, other employees
and directors under all plans is presented in the following table:

Options expiring in 2005 that had their expiration dates extended contingent upon
shareholder approval, which was obtained on August 24, 2006, as discussed below in
Modifications. |
The weighted average fair value per share of options granted was $24.37 and $11.75 for the
three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. For purposes of pro forma disclosure, the
estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options vesting periods. The
fair value for these options at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model.

As of March 31, 2006, we have $10.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to
outstanding unvested stock option awards, which is expected to be recognized over a
weighted-average period of approximately 2.1 years. The total intrinsic value of stock options
exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was $0 and $0.2 million,
respectively.
Incremental stock-based compensation expense related solely to stock options recognized
for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as a result of adoption of SFAS No. 123(R) was as

Restricted Stock Awards of restricted stock are valued at the closing market price
of our common stock on the date of grant and recorded as unearned compensation within shareholders
equity. The unearned compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period of
the restricted stock. We have unearned compensation of $22.7 million and $9.1 million at March 31,
2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. These amounts will be recognized into net earnings in
prospective periods as the awards vest.
Stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock recognized was $1.6 million ($2.3
million pre-tax) and $0.8 million ($1.2 million pre-tax) for the three months ended March 31, 2006
and 2005, respectively.

Modifications During 2005, we made a number of modifications to our stock plans,
including the acceleration of vesting of certain restricted stock grants and outstanding options,
as well as the extension of the exercise period associated with certain outstanding options. These
modifications resulted from severance agreements with former executives and from our decision to
temporarily suspend option exercises. As a result of the modifications primarily associated with
the severance agreements with former executives, we recorded additional stock-based compensation
expense in 2005 of $7.2 million based upon the intrinsic values of the awards on the dates the
modifications were made, none of which was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2005.
On June 1, 2005, we took action to extend to December 31, 2006, the regular term of certain
options granted to employees, including executive officers, qualified retirees and directors, which
were scheduled to expire in 2005. Subsequently, we took action on November 4, 2005, to further
extend the exercise date of these options, and options expiring in 2006, to January 1, 2009. We
thereafter concluded, however, that recent regulatory guidance issued under Section 409A of the
Internal Revenue Code might cause the recipients of these extended options to become subject to
unintended adverse tax consequences under Section 409A. Accordingly, effective December 14, 2005,
the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors partially rescinded, in
accordance with the regulations, the extensions of the regular term of these options, to provide as
follows:
|
(i) |
|
the regular term of options otherwise expiring in 2005 will expire 30 days after the
options first become exercisable when our SEC filings have become current and an
effective SEC Form S-8 Registration Statement has been filed with the SEC, and |
|
|
(ii) |
|
the regular term of options otherwise expiring in 2006 will expire on the later of: |
|
(1) |
|
75 days after the regular term of the option as originally granted expires, or |
|
|
(2) |
|
December 31, 2006 (assuming the options become exercisable in 2006 for the reasons
included in (i) above). |
These extensions were subject to shareholder approval of applicable plan amendments, which was
obtained at our annual shareholders meeting, held in August 2006. The approval of such plan
amendments is considered a stock modification for financial reporting purposes subject to the
recognition of a non-cash compensation charge in accordance with SFAS No. 123(R) and we recorded a
charge of approximately $6 million, which will be recognized in the third quarter of 2006.
The earlier extension actions also extended the option exercise period available following
separation from employment for reasons of death, disability and termination not for cause or
certain voluntary separations. These separate extensions were partially rescinded at the December
14, 2005, meeting of the Organization and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, and as
so revised are currently effective and not subject to shareholder approval. The exercise period
available following such employment separations has been extended to the later of (i) 30 days after
the options first became exercisable when our SEC filings have become current and an effective SEC
Form S-8 Registration Statement has been filed with the SEC, or (ii) the period available for
exercise following separation
9
from employment under the terms of the option as originally granted.
This extension is considered for financial reporting purposes as a stock modification subject to
the recognition of a non-cash compensation charge in accordance with APB No. 25, of $1.0 million in
2005, none of which was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2005. The extension of the
exercise period following separation from employment does not apply to option exercise periods
governed by a separate separation contract or agreement.
4. Derivative Instruments and Hedges
We enter into forward contracts to hedge our risk associated with transactions denominated in
currencies other than the local currency of the operation engaging in the transaction. Our risk
management and derivatives policy specifies the conditions in which we enter into derivative
contracts. As of March 31, 2006, we had approximately $240 million of notional amount in
outstanding contracts with third parties. As of March 31, 2006, the maximum length of any forward
contract in place was 26 months.
The fair market value adjustments of certain of our forward contracts are recognized directly
in our results of operations. The fair value of these outstanding forward contracts at March 31,
2006 was a net liability of $2.2 million and $2.3 million at December 31, 2005. Unrealized gains
(losses) from the changes in the fair value of these forward contracts of $0.2 million and $(1.9)
million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, are included in other
income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). The fair value of
outstanding forward contracts qualifying for hedge accounting at March 31, 2006 was a net liability
of $33,000 and $7,000 at December 31, 2005. Unrealized gains from the changes in the fair value of
qualifying forward contracts and the associated underlying exposures of $7,000 and $0.2 million,
net of tax, for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, are included in other
comprehensive income (loss).
Also as part of our risk management program, we enter into interest rate swap agreements to
hedge exposure to floating interest rates on certain portions of our debt. As of March 31, 2006, we
had $325.0 million of notional amount in outstanding interest rate swaps with third parties. As of
March 31, 2006, the maximum remaining length of any interest rate contract in place was
approximately 33 months. The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements was a net asset of
$3.2 million and $0.9 million at March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. Unrealized
gains from the changes in fair value of our interest rate swap agreements, net of
reclassifications, of $1.4 million and $0.7 million, net of tax, for the three months ended March
31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, are included in other comprehensive income (loss).
During the third quarter of 2004, we entered into a compound derivative contract to hedge
exposure to both currency translation and interest rate risks associated with our European
Investment Bank (EIB) loan. The notional amount of the derivative was $85.0 million, and it
served to convert floating rate interest rate risk to a fixed rate, as well as United States
(U.S.) dollar currency risk to Euros. The derivative matures in 2011. At March 31, 2006 and
December 31, 2005, the fair value of this derivative was a net liability of $2.7 million and $2.8
million, respectively. This derivative did not qualify for hedge accounting. The unrealized gain
(loss) on the derivative, offset with the foreign currency translation effect on the underlying
loan aggregates to $2.2 million and $(0.2) million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and
2005, respectively, and is included in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated
statements of income (loss).
We are exposed to risk from credit-related losses resulting from nonperformance by
counterparties to our financial instruments. We perform credit evaluations of our counterparties
under forward contracts and interest rate swap agreements and expect all counterparties to meet
their obligations. We have not experienced credit losses from our counterparties.

New Credit Facilities
On August 12, 2005, we entered into credit facilities comprised of a $600.0 million term loan
expiring on August 10, 2012 and a $400.0 million revolving line of credit, which can be utilized to
provide up to $300.0 million in letters of credit, expiring on August 12, 2010. We refer to these
credit facilities collectively as our New Credit Facilities. We also replaced the letter of credit
agreement guaranteeing our obligations under the EIB credit facility (described below) with a
letter of credit issued under the new revolving line of credit. We had outstanding letters of
credit of $174.6 million at March 31, 2006 under the revolving line of credit, which reduced
borrowing capacity to $205.4 million, compared with a borrowing capacity of $234.2 million at
December 31, 2005. We had $20 million and $0 outstanding under the revolving line of credit at
March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2006,
we made a mandatory repayment of $10.9 million using the net proceeds from the sale of GSG. In
addition we made an optional prepayment of $5.0 million in June 2006. In July 2006, we made a
mandatory repayment of $0.9 million based on the excess cash flows calculation as required by the
New Credit Facilities. We have no scheduled payments due in 2006.
Borrowings under our New Credit Facilities bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option,
either (1) the base rate (which is based on the greater of the prime rate most recently announced
by the administrative agent under our New Credit Facilities or the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%)
or (2) London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin determined by reference to
the ratio of our total debt to consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and
Amortization (EBITDA), which at March 31, 2006 was 1.75% for LIBOR borrowings. In addition, we
pay lenders under the New Credit Facilities a commitment fee equal to a percentage, determined by
reference to the ratio of our total debt to consolidated EBITDA, of the unutilized portion of the
revolving line of credit, and letter of credit fees with respect to each financial standby letter
of credit outstanding under our New Credit Facilities equal to a percentage based on the applicable
margin in effect for LIBOR borrowings under the new revolving line of credit. The fee for
performance standby letters of credit is 0.5% lower than the fee for financial standby letters of
credit.
Our obligations under the New Credit Facilities are unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and
severally, by substantially all of our existing and subsequently acquired or organized domestic
subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of certain foreign subsidiaries. In addition, prior to
our attaining and maintaining investment grade credit ratings, our and the guarantors obligations
under the New Credit Facilities are collateralized by substantially all of our and the guarantors
assets.
The loans under our New Credit Facilities are subject to mandatory repayment with, in general:
|
|
|
100% of the net cash proceeds of asset sales; and |
|
|
|
|
Unless we attain and maintain investment grade credit ratings: |
|
o |
|
75% of our excess cash flow, subject to a reduction based on the ratio of our total debt to consolidated EBITDA; |
|
|
o |
|
50% of the proceeds of any equity offerings; and |
|
|
o |
|
100% of the proceeds of any debt issuances (subject to certain exceptions). |
11
We may prepay loans under our New Credit Facilities in whole or in part, without premium or
penalty.
Our New Credit Facilities contain covenants requiring us to deliver to lenders leverage and
interest coverage financial covenants and our audited annual and unaudited quarterly financial
statements. Under the leverage covenant, the maximum permitted leverage ratio steps down beginning
with the fourth quarter of 2006, with a further step-down beginning with the fourth quarter of
2007. Under the interest coverage covenant, the minimum required interest coverage ratio steps up
beginning with the fourth quarter of 2006, with a further step-up beginning with the fourth quarter
of 2007. Compliance with these financial covenants under our New Credit Facilities is tested
quarterly, and we were in compliance with the financial covenants as of March 31, 2006.
We are required to furnish to our lenders within 50 days of the end of each of the first three
quarters of each year our condensed consolidated balance sheet, and related condensed statements of
operations, shareholders equity and cash flows. Our New Credit Facilities also contain covenants
restricting our and our subsidiaries ability to dispose of assets, merge, pay dividends,
repurchase or redeem capital stock and indebtedness, incur indebtedness and guarantees, create
liens, enter into agreements with negative pledge clauses, make certain investments or
acquisitions, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, enter into transactions with affiliates,
make capital expenditures, engage in any business activity other than our existing business or any
business activities reasonably incidental thereto. We were in compliance with all debt covenants
under the New Credit Facilities as of March 31, 2006.
EIB Credit Facility
On April 14, 2004, we and one of our European subsidiaries, Flowserve B.V., entered into an
agreement with EIB, pursuant to which EIB agreed to loan us up to 70.0 million, with the
ability to draw funds in multiple currencies, to finance in part specified research and development
projects undertaken by us in Europe. Borrowings under the EIB credit facility bear interest at a
fixed or floating rate of interest agreed to by us and EIB with respect to each borrowing under the
facility. Loans under the EIB credit facility are subject to mandatory repayment, at EIBs
discretion, upon the occurrence of certain events, including a change of control or prepayment of
certain other indebtedness. In addition, the EIB credit facility contains covenants that, among
other things, limit our ability to dispose of assets related to the financed project and require us
to deliver to EIB our audited annual financial statements within 30 days of publication. In August
2004, we borrowed $85.0 million at a floating interest rate based on 3-month U.S. LIBOR that resets
quarterly. As of March 31, 2006, the interest rate was 4.84%. The maturity of the amount drawn is
June 15, 2011, but may be repaid at any time without penalty. Our obligations under the EIB credit
facility are guaranteed by a letter of credit outstanding under our New Credit Facilities, which
costs 1.75% per annum.
Accounts Receivable Factoring
Through our European subsidiaries, we engage in non-recourse factoring of certain accounts
receivable. The various agreements have different terms, including options for renewal and mutual
termination clauses. Under our New Credit Facilities, such factoring is generally limited to $75.0
million, based on due date of the factored receivables.

8. Legal Matters and Contingencies
We are a defendant in a large number of pending lawsuits (which include, in many cases,
multiple claimants and multiple defendants) that seek to recover damages for personal injury
allegedly caused by exposure to asbestos-containing products manufactured and/or distributed by us
in the past. The asbestos-containing parts we used were encapsulated and used only as components of
process equipment, and we do not believe that any emission of respirable asbestos fibers occurred
during the use of this equipment. We believe that a high percentage of the applicable claims are
covered by available insurance or indemnities from other companies.
On February 4, 2004, we received an informal inquiry from the SEC requesting the voluntary
production of documents and information related to our February 3, 2004 announcement that we would
restate our financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the full years 2002,
2001 and 2000. On June 2, 2004, we were advised that the SEC had issued a formal order of private
investigation into issues regarding this restatement and any other issues that arise from the
investigation. On May 31, 2006, we were informed by the staff of the SEC that it had concluded this
investigation without recommending any enforcement action against us.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2003, related lawsuits were filed in federal court in
the Northern District of Texas (the Court), alleging that we violated federal securities laws.
Since the filing of these cases, which have been consolidated, the lead plaintiff has amended its
complaint several times. The lead plaintiffs current pleading is the fifth consolidated amended
complaint (the Complaint). The Complaint alleges that federal securities violations occurred
between February 6, 2001 and September 27, 2002 and names as defendants our company, C. Scott
Greer, our former Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Renée J. Hornbaker, our former
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered
public accounting firm, and Banc of America Securities LLC and Credit Suisse First Boston LLC,
which served as underwriters for our two public stock offerings during the relevant period. The
Complaint asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and
Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The lead plaintiff
seeks unspecified compensatory damages, forfeiture by Mr. Greer and Ms. Hornbaker of unspecified
incentive-based or equity-based compensation and profits from any stock sales, and recovery of
costs. On November 22, 2005, the Court entered an order denying the defendants motions to dismiss
the Complaint. The case is currently set for trial on June 11, 2007. We continue to believe that
the lawsuit is without merit and are vigorously defending the case.
On October 6, 2005, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed purportedly on our behalf in
the 193rd Judicial District of Dallas County, Texas. The lawsuit names as defendants Mr. Greer, Ms.
Hornbaker, and current board members Hugh K. Coble, George T. Haymaker, Jr., William C. Rusnack,
Michael F. Johnston, Charles M. Rampacek, Kevin E. Sheehan, Diane C. Harris, James O. Rollans and
Christopher A. Bartlett. We are named as a nominal defendant. Based primarily on the purported
misstatements alleged in the above-described federal securities case, the plaintiff asserts claims
against the defendants for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste
of corporate assets and unjust enrichment. The plaintiff alleges that these purported violations of
state law occurred between April 2000 and the date of suit. The plaintiff seeks on our behalf an
unspecified amount of damages, injunctive relief and/or the imposition of a constructive trust on
defendants assets, disgorgement of compensation, profits or other benefits received by the
defendants from us, and recovery of attorneys fees and costs. We strongly believe that the suit
was improperly filed and have filed a motion seeking dismissal of the case.
On March 14, 2006, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed purportedly on our behalf in
federal court in the Northern District of Texas. The lawsuit names as defendants Mr. Greer, Ms.
Hornbaker, and current board members Mr. Coble, Mr. Haymaker, Jr., Lewis M. Kling, Mr. Rusnack, Mr.
Johnston, Mr. Rampacek, Mr. Sheehan, Ms. Harris, Mr. Rollans and Mr. Bartlett. We are named as a
nominal defendant. Based primarily on certain of the purported misstatements alleged in the
above-described federal securities case, the plaintiff asserts claims against the defendants for
breaches of fiduciary duty. The plaintiff alleges that the purported breaches of fiduciary duty
occurred between 2000 and 2004. The plaintiff seeks on our behalf an unspecified amount of damages,
disgorgement by Mr. Greer and Ms. Hornbaker of salaries, bonuses, restricted stock and stock
options, and recovery of attorneys fees and costs. We strongly believe that the suit was
improperly filed and have filed a motion seeking dismissal of the case.
As of May 1, 2005, due to the non-current status of our filings with the SEC in accordance
with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our Registration Statements on Form S-8 were no longer
available to cover offers and sales of securities to our employees and other persons. Since that
date, the acquisition of interests in our common stock fund under our Flowserve Corporation Retirement Savings Plan (401(k) Plan) by plan
participants may have been subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933
or applicable state securities laws and may not have qualified for an available exemption from such
requirements. Federal securities laws generally provide for a one-year rescission right for an
investor who acquires unregistered securities in a transaction that is subject to registration and
for which no exemption was
available. As such, an investor successfully asserting a rescission right during the one-year
time period has the right to require an
14
issuer to repurchase the securities acquired by the
investor at the price paid by the investor for the securities (or if such security has been
disposed of, to receive damages with respect to any loss on such disposition), plus interest from
the date of acquisition. The remedies and statute of limitations under state securities laws vary
and depend upon the state in which the shares were purchased. These rights may apply to affected
participants who acquired an interest in our common stock fund in our 401(k) during this period. Based on our current stock price, we believe that our current
potential liability for rescission claims is not material to our financial condition, results of
operations or cash flows; however, our potential liability could become material in the future if our stock price
were to fall significantly below prices at which participants acquired their interest in our common
stock fund during the one-year period following such unregistered acquisitions.
On February 7, 2006, we received a subpoena from the SEC regarding goods and services that
certain foreign subsidiaries delivered to Iraq from 1996 through 2003 during the United Nations
Oil-for-Food program. This investigation includes a review of whether any inappropriate payments
were made to Iraqi officials in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The investigation
includes periods prior to, as well as subsequent to our acquisition of the foreign operations
involved in the investigation. We may be subject to liabilities if violations are found regardless
of whether they relate to periods before or subsequent to our acquisition. In addition, one of our
foreign subsidiarys operations is cooperating with a foreign governmental investigation of that
sites involvement in the United Nations Oil-for-Food program. This cooperation has included
responding to an investigative trip by foreign authorities to the foreign subsidiarys site,
providing relevant documentation to these authorities and answering their questions. We are unable
to predict how or if the foreign authorities will pursue this matter in the future. We believe
that both the SEC and foreign authorities are investigating other companies from their actions
arising from the United Nations Oil-for-Food program. We also understand that the U.S. Department
of Justice is conducting its own investigation of the same events underlying the SEC inquiry. We
are in the process of reviewing and responding to the SEC subpoena and assessing the implications
of the foreign investigation, including the continuation of a thorough internal investigation. Our
investigation remains ongoing. The investigation has included and will include a detailed review
of contracts with the Iraqi government during the period in question and certain payments
associated therewith, as well as other documents and information that might relate to Oil-for-Food
transactions. Additionally, we have and will continue to conduct interviews with employees with
knowledge of the contracts and payments in question. While we have made substantial progress in our
internal investigation, we are still unable to make any definitive determination whether any
inappropriate payments were made and accordingly, are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of
this matter. We will continue to fully cooperate in both the SEC and the foreign investigations.
Both investigations are in progress but, at this point, are incomplete. Accordingly, if the SEC
and/or the foreign authorities take enforcement action with regard to these investigations, we may
be required to pay fines, take remedial compliance measures, further improve our existing
compliance program, consent to injunctions against future conduct or suffer other penalties which
could potentially materially impact our business financial statements and cash flows.
In March 2006, we initiated a process to determine our compliance posture with respect to U.S.
export control laws and regulations. Upon initial investigation, it appears that some product
transactions and technology transfers may technically not be in compliance with U.S. export control
laws and regulations and require further review. With assistance from outside counsel, we are
currently involved in a systematic process to conduct further review, which we believe will take
about 15 months to complete given the complexity of the export laws and the comprehensive scope of
our investigation. Any potential violations of U.S. export control laws and regulations that are
identified may result in civil or criminal penalties, including fines and/or other penalties.
Because our review into this issue is ongoing, we are currently unable to determine the full extent
of potential violations or the nature or amount of potential penalties to which we might be subject
to in the future. Given that the resolution of this matter is uncertain at this time, we are not
able to reasonably estimate the maximum amount of liability that could result from final resolution
of this matter. We cannot currently predict whether the ultimate resolution of this matter will
have a material adverse effect on our business, including our ability to do business outside the
U.S., or on our financial condition.
We have been involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at former public waste
disposal sites that may be subject to remediation under pending government procedures. The sites
are in various stages of evaluation by federal and state environmental authorities. The projected
cost of remediation at these sites, as well as our alleged fair share allocation, is uncertain
and speculative until all studies have been completed and the parties have either negotiated an
amicable resolution or the matter has been judicially resolved. At each site, there are many other
parties who have similarly been identified, and the identification and location of additional
parties is continuing under applicable federal or state law. We believe that many of the other
parties identified are financially strong and solvent companies that appear able to pay their share
of the remediation costs. Based on our information about the waste disposal practices at these
sites and the environmental regulatory process in general, we believe that it is likely that
ultimate remediation liability costs for each site will be apportioned among all liable parties,
including site owners and waste transporters, according to the volumes and/or toxicity of the
wastes shown to have been disposed of at the sites. We believe that our exposure for existing
disposal sites will be less than $100,000.
15
We are also a defendant in several other lawsuits, including product liability claims, that
are insured, subject to the applicable deductibles, arising in the ordinary course of business.
Based on currently available information, we believe that we have adequately accrued estimated
probable losses for such lawsuits. We are also involved in a substantial number of labor claims.
We are also involved in ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business, none of which we
believe to be material to our business, operations or overall financial condition. However,
resolutions or dispositions of claims or lawsuits by settlement or otherwise could have a
significant impact on our operating results for the reporting period in which any such resolution
or disposition occurs.
Although none of the aforementioned potential liabilities can be quantified with absolute
certainty except as otherwise indicated above, we have established reserves covering exposures
relating to contingencies, to the extent believed to be reasonably estimable and which we believe
to be probable of loss based on past experience and available facts. While additional exposures
beyond these reserves could exist, they currently cannot be estimated. We will continue to evaluate
these potential contingent loss exposures and, if they develop, will recognize expense as soon as
such losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated.

10. Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2006, we earned $24.1 million before taxes and provided
for income taxes of $10.2 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 42.2%. The effective tax
rate varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the tax impact of operating
activity in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions.
For the three months ended March 31, 2005, we earned $3.9 million before taxes and provided
for income taxes of $1.0 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 26.1%. The effective tax
rate varied from the U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the effect of certain discrete
items on the low level of quarterly income.
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) substantially concluded its audit of our U.S. federal
income tax returns for the years 1999 through 2001 during December 2005. Based on its audit work,
the IRS has issued proposed adjustments to increase taxable income during 1999 through 2001 by
$12.8 million, and to deny foreign tax credits of $2.4 million in the aggregate. The tax liability
resulting from these proposed adjustments will be offset with foreign tax credit carryovers and
other refund claims, which was approved by the Joint Committee on Taxation on July 24, 2006, and
therefore should not result in a material future cash payment. We anticipate the final cash
settlement of this examination will be completed by December 31, 2006. The effect of the
adjustments to current and deferred taxes has been reflected in previously filed consolidated
financial statements for the applicable periods.
During the third quarter of 2006, the IRS commenced an audit of our U.S. federal income tax
returns for the years 2002 through 2004. While we expect that the upcoming IRS audit will be
similar in scope to the recently completed examination, the upcoming audit may be broader.
Furthermore, the preliminary results from the audit of 1999 through 2001 are not indicative of the
future result of the audit of 2002 through 2004. The audit of 2002 through 2004 may result in
additional tax payments by us, the amount of which may be material, but will not be known until
that IRS audit is finalized.
In the course of the tax audit for the years 1999 through 2001, we identified record
keeping issues that existed during the periods, which caused us to incur significant expense to
substantiate our tax return items and address information and document requests made
16
by the IRS. We
expect to incur similar expenses in future periods with respect to the upcoming IRS audit of the
years 2002 through 2004.
Due to the record keeping issues referred to above, the IRS has issued a Notice of
Inadequate Records for the years 1999 through 2001 and may issue a similar notice for the years
2002 through 2004. While the IRS has agreed not to assess penalties for inadequacy of records with
respect to the years 1999 through 2001, no assurances can be made that the IRS will not seek to
assess such penalties or other types of penalties with respect to the years 2002 through 2004. Such
penalties could result in a material impact to the consolidated results of operations.
Additionally, the record keeping issues noted above may result in future U.S. state and local, as
well as non-U.S., tax assessments of tax, penalties and interest which could have a material impact
to the consolidated results of operations.
11. Segment Information
We are principally engaged in the worldwide design, manufacture, distribution and service of
industrial flow management equipment. We provide pumps, valves and mechanical seals primarily for
the petroleum industry, chemical-processing industry, power-generation industry, water industry,
general industry and other industries requiring flow management products.
We have the following three divisions, each of which constitutes a business segment:
|
|
|
Flowserve Pump Division; |
|
|
|
|
Flow Control Division; and |
|
|
|
|
Flow Solutions Division. |
Each division manufactures different products and is defined by the type of products and
services provided. Each division has a President, who reports directly to our Chief Executive
Officer, and a Division V.P. Finance, who reports directly to our Chief Accounting Officer. For
decision-making purposes, our Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior executive
management use financial information generated and reported at the division level. Our corporate
headquarters does not constitute a separate division or business segment.
We evaluate segment performance and allocate resources based on each segments operating
income. Amounts classified as All Other include the corporate headquarters costs and other minor
entities that do not constitute separate segments. Intersegment sales and transfers are recorded at
cost plus a profit margin, with the margin on such sales eliminated with consolidation.
The following is a summary of the financial information of the reportable segments reconciled
to the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

12. Subsequent Events
Our Shareholder Rights Plan and Series A Preferred Stock expired in August 2006. As a result
of the expiration, we amended our Certificate of Incorporation and the New York Stock Exchange
delisted the Series A Preferred Stock.
17
On September 29, 2006, the Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to two
million shares of our outstanding common stock. Shares will be repurchased to offset potentially dilutive
effects of stock options issued under our stock-based compensation programs. We expect to commence
the program after our planned November filing of our third quarter 2006 Form 10-Q.
At our annual shareholders meeting on August 24, 2006, our shareholders approved certain
applicable amendments to our stock option and incentive plans. See Note 3 for further discussion of this matter.
See Note 5 for discussion of debt payments made subsequent to March 31, 2006.
Updates to legal matters in existence at March 31, 2006, and new legal matters that have
arisen since March 31, 2006 are discussed in Note 8.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements, and notes
thereto, and the other financial data included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. The following
discussion should also be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements,
and notes thereto, and Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations included in our 2005 Annual Report.
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
We are an established leader in the fluid motion and control business, with a strong
portfolio of pumping systems, valves, sealing solutions, automation and services in support of the
power, oil and gas, chemical, water, mining and other general industrial markets. These products
are critical in the movement, control and protection of fluids in our customers processes,
regardless of the particular industry. Our business model is heavily influenced by the capital
spending of these industries for the placement of new products into service and for maintenance on
existing facilities. The worldwide installed base of our products is an important source of
revenue where our products are expected to ensure the maximum operating time of the many key
industrial processes. The aftermarket business includes parts, service solutions, product life
cycle solutions and other value added services, and is generally a higher margin business and a key
component to our profitable growth.
We have experienced steadily improving conditions in 2005 and 2006 in several core markets,
including oil and gas, chemical, power and general industries. The rise of the price of crude oil
and natural gas in particular has spurred capital investment in the oil and gas market, resulting
in many new projects and expansion opportunities. Although feedstock costs have been rising in the
chemical market, greater global demand is allowing companies to pass through pricing and strengthen
the global market. We have also seen a resurgence of nuclear power, particularly in the Asian
market and an increase in coal-fired power plants across the globe. The opportunity to increase
our installed base of new products and drive recurring aftermarket business in future years is a
critical by-product of these favorable market conditions.
We currently have approximately 13,000 employees in more than 56 countries. We continue to
implement new Quick Response Centers (QRCs) to be better positioned as near to our customers as
possible for service and support, as a means to capture the important aftermarket business. Our
markets have improved and we see corresponding growth in our business, much of which is in
non-traditional areas of the world where new oil and gas reserves have been discovered. While we
have experienced increased demand for our products and services in recent periods, we continue to
monitor our core industries for changes and track global issues that could impact our performance.
We and our customers are seeing rapid growth in Asia and the Middle East, with China providing a
source of significant project growth. We have a strategy in place to increase our presence in
China to capture the aftermarket business with our current installed base as well as to support new
plant construction and expansions. In 2006, we expanded our presence in China through two new QRCs
in Shenzhen and Shanghai, as well as a new greenfield manufacturing operation in Suzhou to support
local service and low cost sourcing.
Along with ensuring that we have the local capability to sell, install and service our
equipment in remote regions, it becomes more imperative to continuously improve our global
operations. Our global supply chain capability is being expanded to meet the global customer
demands and ensure the quality and timely delivery of our products while minimizing our input
costs. Significant efforts are underway to reduce the supply base and drive processes across the
business to find areas of synergy and cost reduction. In addition, we are improving our supply
chain management capability to ensure we meet global customer demands. We continue to focus on
improving on-time delivery and quality, while reducing warranty costs across our global operations
through a focused Continuous Improvement Process (CIP) initiative. The goal of the CIP
initiative is to maximize service fulfillment to our customers (such as on-time delivery, reduced
cycle time and quality) at the highest internal productivity. This program is a key factor in our
margin expansion plans.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
The IRS substantially concluded its audit of our U.S. federal income tax returns for the years
1999 through 2001 during December 2005. Based on its audit work, the IRS issued proposed
adjustments to increase taxable income during 1999 through 2001 by $12.8 million, and to deny
foreign tax credits of $2.4 million in the aggregate. The tax liability resulting from these
proposed adjustments will be offset with foreign tax credit carryovers and other refund claims,
which were approved by the Joint Committee on Taxation on July 24, 2006, and therefore should not
result in a material future cash payment. We anticipate the final cash settlement of
19
this examination will be completed by December 31, 2006. The effect of the adjustments to
current and deferred taxes has been reflected in previously filed consolidated financial statements
for the applicable periods.
During the third quarter of 2006, the IRS commenced an audit of our U.S. federal income tax
returns for the years 2002 through 2004. While we expect that the upcoming IRS audit will be
similar in scope to the recently completed examination, the upcoming audit may be broader.
Furthermore, the preliminary results from the audit of 1999 through 2001 are not indicative of the
future result of the audit of 2002 through 2004. The audit of 2002 through 2004 may result in
additional tax payments by us, the amount of which may be material, but will not be known until
that IRS audit is finalized.
In the course of the tax audit for the years 1999 through 2001, we identified record
keeping issues that existed during the periods, which caused us to incur significant expense to
substantiate our tax return items and address information and document requests made by the IRS. We
expect to incur similar expenses in future periods with respect to the upcoming IRS audit of the
years 2002 through 2004.
Due to the record keeping issues referred to above, the IRS has issued a Notice of
Inadequate Records for the years 1999 through 2001 and may issue a similar notice for the years
2002 through 2004. While the IRS has agreed not to assess penalties for inadequacy of records with
respect to the years 1999 through 2001, no assurances can be made that the IRS will not seek to
assess such penalties or other types of penalties with respect to the years 2002 through 2004. Such
penalties could result in a material impact to the consolidated results of operations.
Additionally, the record keeping issues noted above may result in future U.S. state and local, as
well as non-U.S., tax assessments of tax, penalties and interest which could have a material impact
to the consolidated results of operations.

We define a booking as the receipt of a customer order that contractually engages us to
perform activities on behalf of our customer with regard to manufacture, service or support. Total
bookings for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $166.0 million, or 23.3%, as
compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects of
approximately $38 million. The three months ended March 31, 2005 includes $26.8 million of
bookings for GSG, our discontinued operations. Bookings for continuing operations for the three
months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $192.8 million, or 28.1%, as compared with the same period
in 2005. The increase is primarily attributable to the strength of the oil and gas industry, one
of our primary served markets, which has positively impacted each of our segments.
Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $37.8 million, or 6.1%, as
compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects of
approximately $23 million. Consistent with the increase in bookings, the increase is primarily
attributable to strong market conditions across all of our divisions, particularly the oil and gas
market for pumps and seals and strong North American valve markets.
Net sales to international customers, including export sales from the U.S., were approximately
62% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared with 64% in the same period in
2005. The decrease is primarily attributable to Europe, where sales appear lower due to a weaker
Euro during the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared with the same period in 2005.
Backlog represents the accumulation of uncompleted customer orders. Backlog of $1.2 billion
at March 31, 2006 increased by $235.5 million, or 23.7%, as compared with December 31, 2005. The
increase includes currency benefits of approximately $13 million. The increase resulted primarily
from increased bookings during the three months ended March 31, 2006 as discussed above.
20
The
increase in total bookings reflects an increase in orders of engineered products, which naturally
have longer lead times, as well as expanded lead times at the request of certain customers.

Gross profit margin of 32.8% for the three months ending March 31, 2006 increased from
31.0% for the same period in 2005. The increase is a result of increased sales across all
divisions, which favorably impacts our absorption of fixed costs, including increased sales of
aftermarket products, which generally have a higher margin. The aftermarket business increased to
41.4% of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006, as compared with 39.7% of sales for the
same period in 2005. The improvement is also attributable to cost savings achieved through our CIP
initiative, which has positively impacted each division.

compared with the same period in 2005. SG&A for the three months ended March 31, 2006 reflects a
reduction of approximately $5 million resulting from currency effects. The increase in SG&A is
attributable to an increase in audit fees of $6.0 million, primarily related to the 2004 and 2005
audits, which were completed in February 2006 and June 2006, respectively, and an increase in
employee-related costs of $6.7 million, which includes increased incentive compensation and equity
incentive programs arising from improved performance and higher stock price and development of
in-house capabilities for: tax, Section 404 compliance, internal audit, and financial planning and
analysis, as well as expansion in Asia.

|
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2006 decreased by $4.3 million, as
compared with the same period in 2005. The decrease is primarily attributable to the refinancing in
August 2005 of our 12.25% Senior Subordinated Notes with the proceeds of borrowings under our New
Credit Facilities. Approximately 61% of our debt was at fixed rates at March 31, 2006, including
the effects of $410.0 million notional interest rate swaps.
21
Interest income was higher for the three months ended March 31, 2006 as compared with the
same period in 2005 due to a slightly higher average cash balance in 2006, as well as increased
interest rates.

income, decrease in interest expense and increase in other income (expense), net, partially offset
by an increase in tax expense.
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2005 was significantly lower than income from

22
Business Segments
We conduct our business through three business segments that represent our major product
areas:
|
|
|
Flowserve Pump Division (FPD) for engineered pumps, industrial pumps and related
services; |
|
|
|
|
Flow Control Division (FCD) for industrial valves, manual valves, control valves,
nuclear valves, valve actuators and related services; and |
|
|
|
|
Flow Solutions Division (FSD) for precision mechanical seals and related services. |
We evaluate segment performance and allocate resources based on each segments operating
income. See Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly
Report for further discussion of our segments. The key operating results for our three business
segments, FPD, FCD and FSD are discussed below.
Flowserve Pump Division
Through FPD, we design, manufacture, distribute and service engineered and industrial pumps
and pump systems, replacement parts and related equipment, principally to industrial markets. FPD
has 27 manufacturing facilities worldwide, of which nine are located in North America, 11 in
Europe, four in South America and three in Asia. FPD also has more than 50 service centers, which
are either free standing or co-located in a manufacturing facility.

Bookings for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $136.3 million, or 37.9%,
as compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects of
approximately $23 million. The increase was primarily attributable to Europe, Middle East and
Africa (EMA), which increased $85.8 million, including negative currency effects of approximately
$24 million. The increase was due primarily to improved oil and gas and water markets.
Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $15.2 million, or 4.9%, as
compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects of
approximately $12 million. North America increased by $12.0 million, including currency benefits
of approximately $1 million, due primarily to continued strength in the oil and gas market.
Gross profit margin of 28.0% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased from 25.4%
for the same period in 2005. The improvement was driven by a product and services mix that
resulted in aftermarket sales increasing to 49.0% of sales for the three months ended March 31,
2006, as compared with 46.0% of sales for the same period in 2005. The aftermarket business
consistently
provides more favorable gross margins than original equipment sales. The improvement is also
attributable to increased sales, which favorably impacts our absorption of fixed costs.
Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $6.9 million, or
39.2%, as compared with the same period in 2005, primarily as a result of the $12.4 million
improvement in gross profit. The increase includes negative currency effects of approximately $1
million.
Backlog of $877.6 million at March 31, 2006 increased by $174.1 million, or 24.7%, as compared
with December 31, 2005. The increase includes currency benefits of approximately $9 million.
Backlog growth is primarily a result of the growth in bookings discussed above. The increase in
bookings reflects an increase in orders of engineered products, which naturally have longer lead
times, as well as expanded lead times at the request of certain customers.
23
Flow Control Division
Our second largest business segment is FCD, which designs, manufactures and distributes a
broad portfolio of industrial valve products, including modulating and finite valves, actuators and
controls. FCD leverages its experience and application know-how by offering a complete menu of
engineered services to complement its expansive product portfolio. FCD has manufacturing and
service facilities in 19 countries around the world, with only five of its 22 manufacturing
operations located in the U.S.

Total bookings for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $16.1 million, or
6.4%, as compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects of
approximately $12 million. Total bookings for the three months ended March 31, 2005 includes $26.8
million of bookings for GSG, our discontinued operations. Bookings for continuing operations for
the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $42.9 million, or 19.1%, as compared with the
same period in 2005. The increase is principally attributable to the power industry, where we
realized continued strength in Russian markets, particularly in the district heating industry, as
well as across the board growth in Asia and North America. The increase is also attributable to
the process valve market, which increased due principally to acetic acid and coal degasification
projects in China, and improved project business in the North American and Chinese control valve
markets.
Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $8.3 million, or 4.0%, as
compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects of
approximately $9 million. The increase is primarily the result of an upturn in the North American
control valve market, coupled with the completion of several significant projects in Asia. We also
experienced strong sales of process valves into Chinas chemical business and North Americas oil
and gas market, and we successfully completed several power and water projects in North America.
Gross profit margin of 34.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased from 33.4%
for the same period in 2005. This improvement was driven primarily by an increase in higher-margin
aftermarket business by North American QRCs. Also contributing to the improvement was improved
absorption of fixed costs due to higher production throughput, as well as the successful
implementation of several process excellence initiatives related to supply chain management and
continuous improvement.
Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $4.1 million, or
20.5%, as compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects
of approximately $1 million. The increase was driven primarily by the $4.3 million improvement in
gross profit.
Backlog of $292.2 million at March 31, 2006 increased by $52.3 million, or 21.8%, as compared
with December 31, 2005. The increase includes currency benefits of approximately $3 million. The
increase is primarily the result of increased bookings in the first quarter of 2006.
Flow Solutions Division
Through FSD, we design, manufacture and distribute mechanical seals, sealing systems and
parts, and provide related services, principally to industrial markets. FSD has seven manufacturing
operations, three of which are located in the U.S. FSD operates 64 QRCs worldwide, including 25
sites in North America, 14 in Europe, and the remainder in South America and Asia. Our ability to
manufacture engineered seal products within 72 hours from the customers request through design,
engineering, manufacturing, testing and delivery is a significant competitive advantage. Based on
independent industry sources, we believe that we are the second largest mechanical seal supplier in
the world.

Bookings for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $15.6 million, or 13.9%,
as compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects of
approximately $3 million. The increase is primarily attributable to increased demand from oil and
gas and chemical markets in North America, Latin America and Europe.
Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $15.3 million, or 14.9%, as
compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects of
approximately $2 million. As discussed above, the improved market conditions have contributed to
the sales growth. The sharp increase in bookings combined with expanded capacity has enabled
higher shipments, primarily in North America where shipments have increased by $10.2 million.
Gross profit margin of 43.6% for the three months ending March 31, 2006 increased from 43.2%
for the same period in 2005. The improvement is attributable to increased sales, which favorably
impacts our absorption of fixed costs.
Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2006 increased by $4.6 million, or
24.6%, as compared with the same period in 2005. The increase includes negative currency effects
of less than $1 million. This increase was primarily attributable to the $7.0 million increase in
gross profit, slightly offset by an increase in marketing, information technology and research and
development costs.
Backlog of $71.1 million at March 31, 2006 increased by $9.9 million, or 16.2%, as compared
with December 31, 2005. The increase includes currency benefits of less than $1 million. Backlog
growth is primarily a result of the growth in bookings discussed above. Capacity expansions that
began during the quarter helped to significantly increase shipments, primarily in North America,
and have helped to begin a reduction in backlog. Additional capacity expansion in all regions for
the remainder of the year is anticipated to continue in order to support our sales growth and
reduce the backlog to prior year levels.

Cash generated by operations and borrowings available under our existing revolving credit
facility are our primary sources of short-term liquidity. Our cash balance at March 31, 2006 was
$45.8 million, as compared with $92.9 million at December 31, 2005.
Cash flows used by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $45.7
million, as compared with $46.7 million for the same period in 2005. Working capital, excluding
cash, was a use of operating cash flow of $82.0 million during the three months ended March 31,
2006, as compared with a use of $63.0 million for the same period in 2005. Working capital
requirements for both periods primarily reflect increases in inventory due to record demand in both
periods and incentive compensation payouts that were accrued at year end. We have made no material
contributions to our U.S. pension plans during the first three months of 2006. However, we
contributed approximately $36 million to our U.S. pension plans in September 2006.
During the first half of the year, increases in working capital reduce cash flow. We have
historically derived a greater portion of our operating profit during the second half of the year,
which is consistent with our customers buying patterns. Costs are incurred
25
evenly throughout the
year. As a result, our operating cash flows generally increase as the year progresses. Therefore,
we do not expect operating cash flows for the three months ended March 31 to be indicative of full
year results.
Cash flows used by investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2006 were
$11.8 million, as compared with $9.0 million for the same period in 2005. Capital expenditures
during the three months ended March 31, 2006 were $12.5 million, an increase of $3.5 million as
compared with the same period in 2005, which reflects increased spending to support capacity
expansion, enterprise resource planning application upgrades and information technology
infrastructure.
Cash flows provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2006 were
$9.2 million, as compared with $20.9 million for the same period in 2005. Cash inflows in both
periods were a result of borrowings under lines or credit, offset by payments on long-term debt.
We believe cash flows from operating activities combined with availability under our existing
revolving credit agreement and our existing cash balance will be sufficient to enable us to meet
our cash flow needs for the next 12 months. Cash flows from operations could be adversely affected
by economic, political and other risks associated with sales of our products, operational factors,
competition, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and fluctuations in interest rates, among other
factors. See Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.
We have a substantial number of outstanding stock options granted in past years to employees
under our stock option plans which have been unexercisable for an extended period due to our
non-current filing status of all our required SEC public filings. These outstanding options include
options for 809,667 shares held by our former Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, C.
Scott Greer. Given the significant increase in our share price during the period in which optionees
have been unable to exercise their options, it is possible that many holders may want to exercise
soon after they are first able to do so. We will reopen our stock option exercise program and allow
optionees to exercise their options once we become current with our SEC reporting obligations and
have registered with the SEC the common shares to be issued upon exercise of such stock options. We
currently expect this to occur in 2006. If the holders of a large number of these options promptly
exercise following such reopening, there would be some dilutive impact on our earnings per share.
We anticipate that a significant number of stock option exercises at one time would positively
impact our cash flow; however, the impacts on our cash flow and earnings per share are dependent upon share
price, the number of shares exercised and strike price of shares exercised.
On September 29, 2006, our Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to two
million shares of our outstanding common stock. Shares will be repurchased to offset potentially dilutive
effects of stock options issued under our stock-based compensation programs.
We expect to commence the program after our planned November filing of our third quarter 2006 Form 10-Q. We expect to fund the
program using existing cash and cash provided by operations, borrowings and stock option exercises.
Acquisitions
We regularly evaluate acquisition opportunities of various sizes. The cost and terms of any
financing to be raised in conjunction with any acquisition, including our ability to raise
economical capital, is a critical consideration in any such evaluation.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures were $12.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared
with $9.0 million for the same period in 2005. Capital expenditures were funded primarily by
operating cash flows. Capital expenditures in 2006 are focused on capacity expansion, enterprise
resource planning application upgrades (Project STAR: Simplification and Teamwork Accelerates
Results), information technology infrastructure and cost reduction opportunities. Capital
expenditures in 2005 were focused on new product development, information technology infrastructure
and cost reduction opportunities. For the full year 2006, our capital expenditures are expected to
be approximately $75 million. Certain of our facilities may face capacity constraints in the
foreseeable future, which may lead to higher capital expenditure levels.
Financing
New Credit Facilities
On August 12, 2005, we entered into New Credit Facilities comprised of a $600.0 million term
loan maturing on August 10, 2012 and a $400.0 million revolving line of credit, which can be
utilized to provide up to $300.0 million in letters of credit, expiring on
26
August 12, 2010.
Further, we replaced the letter of credit agreement that guaranteed our EIB credit facility
(described below) with a letter of credit issued as part of the New Credit Facilities.
Borrowings under our New Credit Facilities bear interest at a rate equal to, at our option,
either (1) the base rate (which is based on the greater of the prime rate most recently announced
by the administrative agent under our New Credit Facilities or the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%)
or (2) LIBOR plus an applicable margin determined by reference to the ratio of our total debt to
consolidated EBITDA, which as of March 31, 2006 was 1.75% for LIBOR borrowings.
The loans under our New Credit Facilities are subject to mandatory repayment with, in general:
|
|
|
100% of the net cash proceeds of asset sales; and |
|
|
|
|
Unless we attain and maintain investment grade credit ratings: |
|
o |
|
75% of our excess cash flow, subject to a reduction based on the ratio of our total debt to consolidated EBITDA; |
|
|
o |
|
50% of the proceeds of any equity offerings; and |
|
|
o |
|
100% of the proceeds of any debt issuances (subject to certain exceptions). |
We may prepay loans under our New Credit Facilities in whole or in part, without premium or
penalty. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, we made a mandatory repayment of $10.9
million using the net proceeds from the sale of GSG. In addition we made an optional prepayment of
$5.0 million in June 2006. In July 2006, we made a mandatory repayment of $0.9 million based on the
excess cash flows calculation as required by the New Credit Facilities. We have no scheduled
payments due in 2006.
EIB Credit Facility
On April 14, 2004, we and one of our European subsidiaries, Flowserve B.V., entered into an
agreement with EIB, pursuant to which EIB agreed to loan us up to 70.0 million, with the
ability to draw funds in multiple currencies, to finance in part specified research and development
projects undertaken by us in Europe. Borrowings under the EIB credit facility bear interest at a
fixed or floating rate of interest agreed to by us and EIB with respect to each borrowing under the
facility. Loans under the EIB credit facility are subject to mandatory repayment, at EIBs
discretion, upon the occurrence of certain events, including a change of control or prepayment of
certain other indebtedness. In addition, the EIB credit facility contains covenants that, among
other things, limit our ability to dispose of assets related to the financed project and require us
to deliver to EIB our audited annual financial statements
within 30 days of publication. Our obligations under the EIB credit facility are guaranteed by
a letter of credit outstanding under our New Credit Facilities, which costs 1.75% per annum.
In August 2004, we borrowed $85.0 million at a floating interest rate based on 3-month U.S.
LIBOR that resets quarterly. As of March 31, 2006, the interest rate was 4.84%. The maturity of the
amount drawn is June 15, 2011, but may be repaid at any time without penalty. Concurrent with
borrowing the $85.0 million we entered into a derivative contract with a third party financial
institution, swapped this principal amount to 70.6 million and fixed the LIBOR portion of the
interest rate to a fixed interest rate of 4.19% through the scheduled repayment date. Additional
discussion of the derivative is included in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial
statements, included in this Quarterly Report.
Additional discussion of our New Credit Facilities and EIB credit facility, including amounts
outstanding and applicable interest rates, is included in Note 5 to our condensed consolidated
financial statements, included in this Quarterly Report.
We have entered into interest rate and currency swap agreements to hedge our exposure to cash
flows related to the credit facilities discussed above. These agreements are more fully described
in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, included in this Quarterly Report,
and in Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Debt Covenants and Other Matters
Our New Credit Facilities contain covenants requiring us to deliver to lenders leverage and
interest coverage financial covenants and our audited annual and unaudited quarterly financial
statements. Under the leverage covenant, the maximum permitted leverage ratio steps down beginning
with the fourth quarter of 2006, with a further step-down beginning with the fourth quarter of
2007. Under the interest coverage covenant, the minimum required interest coverage ratio steps up
beginning with the fourth quarter of 2006, with
27
a further step-up beginning with the fourth quarter
of 2007. Compliance with these financial covenants under our New Credit Facilities is tested
quarterly, and we have complied with the financial covenants as of March 31, 2006.
We are required to furnish within 50 days of the end of each of the first three quarters of
each year our condensed consolidated balance sheet, and related condensed statements of operations,
shareholders equity and cash flows. Our New Credit Facilities also contain covenants restricting
our and our subsidiaries ability to dispose of assets, merge, pay dividends, repurchase or redeem
capital stock and indebtedness, incur indebtedness and guarantees, create liens, enter into
agreements with negative pledge clauses, make certain investments or acquisitions, enter into sale
and leaseback transactions, enter into transactions with affiliates, make capital expenditures,
engage in any business activity other than our existing business or any business activities
reasonably incidental thereto. We are currently in compliance with all debt covenants under the New
Credit Facilities.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Managements discussion and analysis are based on our condensed consolidated financial
statements and related footnotes contained within this Quarterly Report. Our more critical
accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements were discussed
in our 2005 Annual Report. These critical policies, for which no significant changes have occurred
in the first three months of 2006, include:
|
|
|
Revenue Recognition; |
|
|
|
|
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts; |
|
|
|
|
Inventories and Related Reserves; |
|
|
|
|
Deferred Taxes and Tax Valuation Allowances; |
|
|
|
|
Tax Reserves; |
|
|
|
|
Legal and Environmental Accruals; |
|
|
|
|
Warranty Accruals; |
|
|
|
|
Retirement and Postretirement Benefits; and |
|
|
|
|
Valuation of Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets and Other Long-Lived Assets. |
Based on an assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and
uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, we believe that our condensed
consolidated financial statements provide a meaningful and fair perspective of our financial
condition and results of operations. This is not to suggest that other general risk factors, such
as changes in worldwide demand, changes in material costs, performance of acquired businesses and
others, could not adversely impact our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows in future periods.
The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP) requires the use of estimates and assumptions to determine
certain of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are
based upon what we believe is the best information available at the time of the estimates or
assumptions. The estimates and assumptions could change materially as conditions within and beyond
our control change. Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The
significant estimates are reviewed quarterly with our Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS
We have presented the information about accounting pronouncements not yet implemented in Note
1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. Such statements include statements concerning future financial performance, future debt
and financing levels, investment objectives, implications of litigation and regulatory
investigations, and other plans and objectives of management for future operations or economic
performance, or assumptions or forecasts related thereto. These statements are only predictions.
We caution that forward-looking statements are not guarantees. Actual events or our results of
operations could differ materially from those expressed or implied, but not limited to, in
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are typically identified by the use of
terms such as, may, should, expect, could, intend, plan, anticipate, estimate,
believe, continue, predict, potential or the negative of such terms and other comparable
terminology.
The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report are based on our current
expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions and beliefs that involve numerous risks and
uncertainties. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among
other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all
of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond our
control. Any of the assumptions underlying forward-looking statements could be inaccurate. To the
extent that our assumptions differ from actual results, our ability to meet such forward-looking
statements may be significantly hindered.
The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all of the risks and
uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in
certain forward-looking statements:
|
|
|
material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that could
adversely affect our ability to report our financial condition and results of operations
accurately and on a timely basis; |
|
|
|
|
our failure to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; |
|
|
|
|
potential adverse consequences resulting from securities class action litigation and
other litigation to which we are a party, such as litigation involving asbestos-containing
material claims; |
|
|
|
|
SEC and foreign government investigations regarding our participation in the United Nations Oil-for-Food Program; |
|
|
|
|
our potential non-compliance with U.S. export control, economic sanctions and import laws and regulations; |
|
|
|
|
our risk associated with certain of our foreign subsidiaries autonomously conducting,
under their own local authority, business operations and sales, which have recently
generated between 1-2% of our consolidated global revenue in certain countries that have
been identified by the U.S. State Department as state sponsors of terrorism. Although
these foreign subsidiaries are planning to voluntarily withdraw from conducting new
business in these countries in the near future, they will continue to honor existing
contracts and warranty obligations that are in compliance with U.S. laws and regulations; |
|
|
|
|
increased tax liabilities resulting from a recent audit of our tax returns by the U.S.
Internal Revenue Service, as well as potential costs and liabilities that may be associated
with likely future audits; |
|
|
|
|
a portion of our bookings may not lead to completed sales, and we may not be able
to convert bookings into revenues at acceptable profit margins, since such profit margins
cannot be assured nor can they be necessarily assumed to follow historical trends; |
|
|
|
|
the recording of increased deferred tax asset valuation allowances in the future; |
|
|
|
|
an impairment in the carrying value of goodwill or other intangibles could adversely
impact our consolidated financial condition and results of operations; |
|
|
|
|
economic, political and other risks associated with our international operations,
including military actions or trade embargoes that could affect customer markets, including
the continuing conflict in Iraq and its potential impact on Middle Eastern markets and
global petroleum producers; |
29
|
|
|
our sales are substantially dependent upon the petroleum, chemical, power and water
industries and any significant down turn in any one of these industries could adversely
impact such sales; |
|
|
|
|
our operations are dependent upon third-party suppliers whose failure to perform timely
could adversely affect our business operations; |
|
|
|
|
our dependence on our customers ability to make required capital investment and maintenance expenditures; |
|
|
|
|
risks associated with cost overruns on fixed-fee projects; |
|
|
|
|
the highly competitive markets in which we operate; |
|
|
|
|
environmental compliance costs and liabilities; |
|
|
|
|
work stoppages and other labor matters; |
|
|
|
|
our inability to protect our intellectual property in the U.S., as well as in foreign countries; |
|
|
|
|
the loss of senior executives and other key personnel; |
|
|
|
|
difficulties in obtaining raw materials at favorable prices; |
|
|
|
|
obligations under our defined benefit pension plans; |
|
|
|
|
liabilities, including rescission rights, potentially resulting from issuances of
interests in our Flowserve Corporation Retirement Savings Plan; |
|
|
|
|
the impact of a significant number of stock option exercises following the removal of
the current suspension on the exercise of outstanding stock options that is somewhat
mitigated by the stock repurchase program that was approved by the Board of Directors,
which will be implemented during the fourth quarter of 2006; |
|
|
|
|
liabilities that result from product liability and warranty claims; |
|
|
|
|
our outstanding indebtedness and the restrictive covenants in the agreements governing
our indebtedness limit our operating and financial flexibility; and |
|
|
|
|
our inability to continue to expand our market presence through acquisitions, and
unforeseen integration difficulties or costs resulting from acquisitions we do complete. |
These risks are more fully discussed in, and all forward-looking statements should be read in
light of, all of the factors discussed in Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors included in this
Quarterly Report and in our 2005 Annual Report. The updated risk factors included in this
Quarterly Report are presented in addition to the risk factors disclosed in the 2005 Annual Report.
You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included in
this Quarterly Report. All forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly
Report and the risk that actual results will differ materially from the expectations expressed in
this Quarterly Report may increase with the passage of time. In light of the significant
uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report, the
inclusion of such forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by us or
any other person that the objectives and plans set forth in this Quarterly Report will be achieved.
All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on
our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by reference to these risks and uncertainties.
Each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement, and we do
not undertake to update any forward-looking statement.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
We have market risk exposure arising from changes in interest rates and foreign currency
exchange rate movements.
Our earnings are impacted by changes in short-term interest rates as a result of borrowings
under our New Credit Facilities, which bear interest based on floating rates. At March 31, 2006,
after the effect of interest rate swaps, we have approximately $262.6 million of variable rate debt
obligations outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 6.68%. A hypothetical change of
100-basis points in the interest rate for these borrowings, assuming constant variable rate debt
levels, would have changed interest expense by approximately $0.7 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2006.
We are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to
financial instruments including interest rate swaps, but we expect all counterparties will continue
to meet their obligations given their creditworthiness. As of March 31, 2006, we had $410.0 million
of notional amount in outstanding interest rate swaps with third parties with maturities through
June 2011 compared to $185.0 million as of March 31, 2005.
We employ a foreign currency hedging strategy to minimize potential losses in earnings or cash
flows from unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movements. These strategies also minimize
potential gains from favorable exchange rate movements. Foreign currency exposures arise from
transactions, including firm commitments and anticipated transactions, denominated in a currency
other than an entitys functional currency and from foreign-denominated revenues and profits
translated back into U.S. dollars. Based on a sensitivity analysis at March 31, 2006, a 10% adverse
change in the foreign currency exchange rates could impact our results of operations for the three
months ended March 31, 2006 by $3.7 million as shown below:

Exposures are hedged primarily with foreign currency forward contracts that generally
have maturity dates less than one year. Company policy allows foreign currency coverage only for
identifiable foreign currency exposures and, therefore, we do not enter into foreign currency
contracts for trading purposes where the objective would be to generate profits. As of March 31,
2006, we had a U.S. dollar equivalent of $239.8 million in outstanding forward contracts with third
parties compared with $236.0 million at December 31, 2005.
Generally, we view our investments in foreign subsidiaries from a long-term perspective, and
therefore, do not hedge these investments. We use capital structuring techniques to manage our
investment in foreign subsidiaries as deemed necessary.
We realized gains (losses) associated with foreign currency translation of $5.4 million and
$(8.7) million for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which are included
in other comprehensive income (loss). Transactional currency gains and losses arising from
transactions outside of our sites functional currencies and changes in fair value of certain
forward contracts are included in our consolidated results of operations. We realized foreign
currency gains (losses) of $2.0 million and $(2.5) million for the three months ended March 31,
2006 and 2005, respectively, which is included in other income (expense), net in the accompanying
condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) are controls and other procedures that are designed
to provide reasonable assurance that the information that we are required to disclose in the
reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information
is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report, our management, with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, carried out an
evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of March 31, 2006. In making this evaluation, our management considered the material
weaknesses described in our 2005 Annual Report, which was filed with the SEC on June 30, 2006.
Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that
our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of
March 31, 2006.
A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that
results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim
financial statements will not be prevented or detected. As more fully described in Managements
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting in Item 9A of our 2005 Annual Report,
management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2005, which also existed as of March 31, 2006:
We did not maintain: (1) effective controls over our period-end financial reporting processes,
including monitoring; (2) effective segregation of duties over automated and manual transaction
processes; (3) effective controls over the completeness, accuracy and validity of revenue; (4)
effective controls over the completeness, accuracy, validity and valuation of our inventory and
related cost of sales transactions; (5) effective controls over the completeness, accuracy and
validity of our accounts payable and related disbursements; (6) effective controls over accounting
for certain derivative transactions; and (7) effective controls over the completeness, accuracy and
valuation of stock-based employee compensation expense, based on criteria established in Internal
Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission.
In light of the material weaknesses described above, we performed additional analyses and
other procedures to ensure that our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included
in this Quarterly Report were prepared in accordance with GAAP. As a result of these procedures,
we believe that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this
Quarterly Report present fairly, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with GAAP.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses
In response to the identified material weaknesses, we, with oversight from our audit
committee, have dedicated significant resources to support management in its efforts to remedy the
identified material weaknesses. As more fully described in the Completed Remediation section of
Item 9A of our 2005 Annual Report, the remediation that occurred prior to December 31, 2005 focused
on: (i) appointed a chief compliance officer; (ii) expanded and strengthened our finance
organization by creating and filling new positions in the areas of financial reporting, controls
compliance, accounting policies, financial planning and analysis, and tax; (iii) expanded and
strengthened our internal audit organization; (iv) enhanced our accounting policy program; (v)
strengthened our centrally managed internal controls and financial review program; (vi) improved
our communication of accounting policy and control requirements; (vii) expanded and enhanced our
financial disclosure control and certification process; (viii) enhanced our anti-fraud program; and
(ix) improved our information technology general controls.
As more fully described in the Continuing Remediation section of Item 9A of our 2005 Annual
Report, the ongoing remediation efforts subsequent to December 31, 2005 have been focused on: (i)
implementing or upgrading ERP systems to increase the level of automated controls; (ii)
implementing a global web-based financial controls management solution to facilitate the
documentation and assessment of accounting and financial reporting controls; (iii) strengthening
our segregation of duties and application security policy,
32
and updating our spreadsheet controls policy; (iv) updating our account reconciliation policy,
issuing training materials defining the specific requirements regarding account reconciliation
preparation, review and approval, and further communicating the requirements of account
reconciliations as part of our regional accounting and finance organization training sessions; (v)
designing and implementing additional revenue cycle, inventory cycle and accounts payable process
controls, including the establishment of additional review and verification procedures, updating
policies as necessary, and providing training to our global finance organization; (vi) implementing
new procedures and controls to ensure technical compliance with derivative accounting provisions;
and (vii) designing and implementing enhanced controls to ensure proper accounting for stock-based
employee compensation transactions.
We believe that the Completed Remediation actions described above have further improved our
internal control over financial reporting, as well as our disclosure controls and procedures. We
also believe that the Continuing Remediation actions described above will continue to improve our
internal control over financial reporting, as well as our disclosure controls and procedures. Our
management, with the oversight of our Audit Committee, will continue to take steps to remedy known
material weaknesses as expeditiously as possible.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting during
the three months ended March 31, 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are a defendant in a large number of pending lawsuits (which include, in many cases,
multiple claimants and multiple defendants) that seek to recover damages for personal injury
allegedly caused by exposure to asbestos-containing products manufactured and/or distributed by us
in the past. The asbestos-containing parts we used were encapsulated and used only as components of
process equipment, and we do not believe that any emission of respirable asbestos fibers occurred
during the use of this equipment. We believe that a high percentage of the applicable claims are
covered by available insurance or indemnities from other companies.
On February 4, 2004, we received an informal inquiry from the SEC requesting the voluntary
production of documents and information related to our February 3, 2004 announcement that we would
restate our financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the full years 2002,
2001 and 2000. On June 2, 2004, we were advised that the SEC had issued a formal order of private
investigation into issues regarding this restatement and any other issues that arise from the
investigation. On May 31, 2006, we were informed by the staff of the SEC that it had concluded this
investigation without recommending any enforcement action against us.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2003, related lawsuits were filed in federal court in
the Northern District of Texas (the Court), alleging that we violated federal securities laws.
Since the filing of these cases, which have been consolidated, the lead plaintiff has amended its
complaint several times. The lead plaintiffs current pleading is the fifth consolidated amended
complaint (the Complaint). The Complaint alleges that federal securities violations occurred
between February 6, 2001 and September 27, 2002 and names as defendants our company, C. Scott
Greer, our former Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, Renee J. Hornbaker, our former
Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, our independent registered
public accounting firm, and Banc of America Securities LLC and Credit Suisse First Boston LLC,
which served as underwriters for our two public stock offerings during the relevant period. The
Complaint asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and
Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The lead plaintiff
seeks unspecified compensatory damages, forfeiture by Mr. Greer and Ms. Hornbaker of unspecified
incentive-based or equity-based compensation and profits from any stock sales, and recovery of
costs. On November 22, 2005, the Court entered an order denying the defendants motions to dismiss
the Complaint. The case is currently set for trial on June 11, 2007. We continue to believe that
the lawsuit is without merit and are vigorously defending the case.
On October 6, 2005, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed purportedly on our behalf in
the 193rd Judicial District of Dallas County, Texas. The lawsuit names as defendants Mr. Greer, Ms.
Hornbaker, and current board members Hugh K. Coble, George T. Haymaker, Jr., William C. Rusnack,
Michael F. Johnston, Charles M. Rampacek, Kevin E. Sheehan, Diane C. Harris, James O. Rollans and
Christopher A. Bartlett. We are named as a nominal defendant. Based primarily on the purported
misstatements alleged in the above-described federal securities case, the plaintiff asserts claims
against the defendants for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste
of corporate assets and unjust enrichment. The plaintiff alleges that these purported violations of
state law occurred between April 2000 and the date of suit. The plaintiff seeks on our behalf an
unspecified amount of damages, injunctive relief and/or the imposition of a constructive trust on
defendants assets, disgorgement of compensation, profits or other benefits received by the
defendants from us, and recovery of attorneys fees and costs. We strongly believe that the suit
was improperly filed and have filed a motion seeking dismissal of the case.
On March 14, 2006, a shareholder derivative lawsuit was filed purportedly on our behalf in
federal court in the Northern District of Texas. The lawsuit names as defendants Mr. Greer, Ms.
Hornbaker, and current board members Mr. Coble, Mr. Haymaker, Jr., Lewis M. Kling, Mr. Rusnack, Mr.
Johnston, Mr. Rampacek, Mr. Sheehan, Ms. Harris, Mr. Rollans and Mr. Bartlett. We are named as a
nominal defendant. Based primarily on certain of the purported misstatements alleged in the
above-described federal securities case, the plaintiff asserts claims against the defendants for
breaches of fiduciary duty. The plaintiff alleges that the purported breaches of fiduciary duty
occurred between 2000 and 2004. The plaintiff seeks on our behalf an unspecified amount of damages,
disgorgement by Mr. Greer and Ms. Hornbaker of salaries, bonuses, restricted stock and stock
options, and recovery of attorneys fees and costs. We strongly believe that the suit was
improperly filed and have filed a motion seeking dismissal of the case.
As of May 1, 2005, due to the non-current status of our filings with the SEC in accordance
with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our Registration Statements on Form S-8 were no longer
available to cover offers and sales of securities to our employees and other persons. Since that
date, the acquisition of interests in our common stock fund under our 401(k) Plan by plan
participants may have been subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933
or applicable state securities laws and may not have
34
qualified for an available exemption from such requirements. Federal securities laws generally
provide for a one-year rescission right for an investor who acquires unregistered securities in a
transaction that is subject to registration and for which no exemption was available. As such, an
investor successfully asserting a rescission right during the one-year time period has the right to
require an issuer to repurchase the securities acquired by the investor at the price paid by the
investor for the securities (or if such security has been disposed of, to receive damages with
respect to any loss on such disposition), plus interest from the date of acquisition. The remedies
and statute of limitations under state securities laws vary and depend upon the state in which the
shares were purchased. These rights may apply to affected
participants who acquired an interest in our common stock fund in our
401(k) Plan during this period. Based
on our current stock price, we believe that our current potential liability for rescission claims
is not material to our financial condition, results of operations or
cash flows; however, our potential
liability could become material in the future if our stock price were to fall significantly below
prices at which participants acquired their interest in our common stock fund during the one-year
period following such unregistered acquisitions.
On February 7, 2006, we received a subpoena from the SEC regarding goods and services that
certain foreign subsidiaries delivered to Iraq from 1996 through 2003 during the United Nations
Oil-for-Food program. This investigation includes a review of whether any inappropriate payments
were made to Iraqi officials in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The investigation
includes periods prior, to as well as subsequent to our acquisition of the foreign operations
involved in the investigation. We may be subject to liabilities if violations are found regardless
of whether they relate to periods before or subsequent to our acquisition. In addition, one of our
foreign subsidiarys operations is cooperating with a foreign governmental investigation of that
sites involvement in the United Nations Oil-for-Food program. This cooperation has included
responding to an investigative trip by foreign authorities to the foreign subsidiarys site,
providing relevant documentation to these authorities and answering their questions. We are unable
to predict how or if the foreign authorities will pursue this matter in the future. We believe
that both the SEC and foreign authorities are investigating other companies from their actions
arising from the United Nations Oil-for-Food program. We also understand that the U.S. Department
of Justice is conducting its own investigation of the same events underlying the SEC inquiry. We
are in the process of reviewing and responding to the SEC subpoena and assessing the implications
of the foreign investigation, including the continuation of a thorough internal investigation. Our
investigation remains ongoing. The investigation has included and will include a detailed review
of contracts with the Iraqi government during the period in question and certain payments
associated therewith, as well as other documents and information that might relate to Oil-for-Food
transactions. Additionally, we have and will continue to conduct interviews with employees with
knowledge of the contracts and payments in question. While we have made substantial progress in our
internal investigation, we are still unable to make any definitive determination whether any
inappropriate payments were made and accordingly are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of this
matter. We will continue to fully cooperate in both the SEC and the foreign investigations. Both
investigations are in progress but, at this point, are incomplete. Accordingly, if the SEC and/or
the foreign authorities take enforcement action with regard to these investigations, we may be
required to pay fines, take remedial compliance measures, further improve our existing compliance
program, consent to injunctions against future conduct or suffer other penalties which could
potentially materially impact our business financial statements and cash flows.
In March 2006, we initiated a process to determine our compliance posture with respect to U.S.
export control laws and regulations. Upon initial investigation, it appears that some product
transactions and technology transfers may not technically been in compliance with U.S. export
control laws and regulations and require further review. With assistance from outside counsel, we
are currently involved in a systematic process to conduct further review which we believe will take
about 15 months to complete given the complexity of the export laws and the comprehensive scope of
the investigation. Any potential violations of U.S. export control laws and regulations that are
identified may result in civil or criminal penalties, including fines and/or other penalties.
Because our review into this issue is ongoing, we are currently unable to determine the full extent
of potential violations or the nature or amount of potential penalties to which we might be subject
to in the future. Given that the resolution of this matter is uncertain at this time, we are not
able to reasonably estimate the maximum amount of liability that could result from final resolution
of this matter. We cannot currently predict whether the ultimate resolution of this matter will
have a material adverse effect on our business, including our ability to do business outside the
United States, or on our financial condition.
We have been involved as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at former public waste
disposal sites that may be subject to remediation under pending government procedures. The sites
are in various stages of evaluation by federal and state environmental authorities. The projected
cost of remediation at these sites, as well as our alleged fair share allocation, is uncertain
and speculative until all studies have been completed and the parties have either negotiated an
amicable resolution or the matter has been judicially resolved. At each site, there are many other
parties who have similarly been identified, and the identification and location of additional
parties is continuing under applicable federal or state law. We believe that many of the other
parties identified are financially strong and solvent companies that appear able to pay their share
of the remediation costs. Based on our information about the waste disposal practices at these
sites and the environmental regulatory process in general, we believe that it is likely that
ultimate remediation liability costs for each site will be apportioned among all liable parties,
including site owners and waste transporters, according to the
35
volumes and/or toxicity of the wastes shown to have been disposed of at the sites. We believe
that our exposure for existing disposal sites will be less than $100,000.
We are also a defendant in several other lawsuits, including product liability claims, that
are insured, subject to the applicable deductibles, arising in the ordinary course of business.
Based on currently available information, we believe that we have adequately accrued estimated
probable losses for such lawsuits. We are also involved in a substantial number of labor claims.
We are also involved in ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business, none of which we
believe to be material to our business, operations or overall financial condition. However,
resolutions or dispositions of claims or lawsuits by settlement or otherwise could have a
significant impact on our operating results for the reporting period in which any such resolution
or disposition occurs.
Although none of the aforementioned potential liabilities can be quantified with absolute
certainty except as otherwise indicated above, we have established reserves covering exposures
relating to contingencies, to the extent believed to be reasonably estimable and, which we believe
to be probable of loss based on past experience and available facts. While additional exposures
beyond these reserves could exist, they currently cannot be estimated. We will continue to evaluate
these potential contingent loss exposures and, if they develop, recognize expense as soon as such
losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
This Quarterly Report provides updates on two previously disclosed risk factors that were
presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, which was filed
with the SEC on June 30, 2006. The updated risk factors noted below are presented in addition to
the other risk factors disclosed in the 2005 Annual Report. All of our disclosed risk factors
could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described
in our Quarterly Report and 2005 Annual Report are not the only risks facing our Company.
Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be
immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating
results.
We are currently subject to securities class action litigation, the unfavorable outcome of which
might have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash
flows.
A number of putative class action lawsuits have been filed against us, certain of our former
officers, our independent auditors and the lead underwriters of our most recent public stock
offerings, alleging securities laws violations. We believe that these lawsuits, which have been
consolidated, are without merit and are vigorously defending them and have notified our applicable
insurers. We cannot, however, determine with certainty the outcome or resolution of these claims or
the timing for their resolution. The consolidated securities case is currently set for trial on
June 11, 2007. In addition to the expense and burden incurred in defending this litigation and any
damages that we may suffer, our managements efforts and attention may be diverted from the
ordinary business operations in order to address these claims. If the final resolution of this
litigation is unfavorable to us, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows
might be materially adversely affected if our existing insurance coverage is unavailable or
inadequate to resolve the matter.
The ongoing SEC and foreign government investigation regarding our participation in the United
Nations Oil-for-Food Program could materially adversely affect our Company.
On February 7, 2006, we received a subpoena from the SEC regarding goods and services that
certain foreign subsidiaries delivered to Iraq from 1996 through 2003 during the United Nations
Oil-for-Food Program. This investigation includes a review of whether any inappropriate payments
were made to Iraqi officials in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The investigation
includes periods prior to, as well as subsequent to our acquisition of the foreign operations
involved in the investigation. We may be subject to liabilities if violations are found regardless
of whether they relate to periods before or subsequent to our acquisition.
In addition, one of our foreign subsidiarys operations is cooperating with a foreign
governmental investigation of that sites involvement in the United Nations Oil-for-Food Program.
This cooperation has included responding to an investigative trip by foreign authorities to the
foreign subsidiarys site, providing relevant documentation to these authorities and answering
their questions. We are unable to predict how or if the foreign authorities will pursue this matter
in the future.
We believe that both the SEC and this foreign authority are investigating other companies from
their actions arising from the Oil-for-Food program.
36
We are in the process of reviewing and responding to the SEC subpoena and assessing the
implications of the foreign investigation, including the continuation of a thorough internal
investigation. Our investigation is in the early stages and has included and will include a
detailed review of contracts with the Iraqi government during the period in question and certain
payments associated therewith. Additionally, we have and will continue to conduct interviews with
employees with knowledge of the contracts and payments in question. We are in the early phases of
our internal investigation and as a result are unable to make any definitive determination whether
any inappropriate payments were made and accordingly are unable to predict the ultimate outcome of
this matter.
We will continue to fully cooperate in both the SEC and the foreign investigations. Both
investigations are in progress but, at this point, are incomplete. Accordingly, if the SEC and/or
the foreign authorities take enforcement action with regard to these investigations, we may be
required to pay fines, consent to injunctions against future conduct or suffer other penalties
which could have a material adverse impact our condition, results of
operations and cash flows.
Potential noncompliance with U.S. export control laws could materially adversely affect our
business.
We have notified applicable U.S. governmental authorities of our plans to investigate, analyze
and, if applicable, disclose past potential violations of the U.S. export control laws through, in
general, the export of products, services and technologies without the licenses possibly required
by such authorities. If and to the extent violations are identified, confirmed and so disclosed, we
could be subject to substantial fines and other penalties affecting our ability to do business
outside the United States.
Our risks involved in conducting our international business operations include, without
limitation, the risks associated with certain of our foreign subsidiaries autonomously conducting,
under their own local authority and consistent with U.S. export laws, business operations and
sales, which constitute approximately 1-2% of our consolidated global revenue, in countries that
have been designated by the U.S. State Department as state sponsors of terrorism. Due to the
growing political uncertainties associated with these countries, we have
been planning to voluntarily withdraw, on a phased basis, from conducting new business in these
countries since early in 2006. However, these subsidiaries will continue to honor existing
contracts and warranty obligations that are in compliance with U.S. laws and regulations.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
As of May 1, 2005, due to the non-current status of our filings with the SEC in accordance
with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our Registration Statements on Form S-8 were no longer
available to cover offers and sales of securities to our employees and other persons. Since that
date, the acquisition of interests in our common stock fund under our 401(k) Plan by plan
participants may have been subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933
or applicable state securities laws and may not have qualified for an available exemption from such
requirements. Federal securities laws generally provide for a one-year rescission right for an
investor who acquires unregistered securities in a transaction that is subject to registration and
for which no exemption was available. As such, an investor successfully asserting a rescission
right during the one-year time period has the right to require an issuer to repurchase the
securities acquired by the investor at the price paid by the investor for the securities (or if
such security has been disposed of, to receive damages with respect to any loss on such
disposition), plus interest from the date of acquisition. The
remedies and statute of limitations
under state securities laws vary and depend upon the state in which the shares were purchased.
These rights may apply to affected participants who acquired an
interest in our common stock fund in our 401(k) Plan and their affected interest in
this plan may involve up to 270,000 shares of our common stock acquired pursuant to the 401(k) Plan
during 2005 and an additional 110,000 shares acquired during the three months ended March 31, 2006.
Based on our current stock price, we believe that our current potential liability for rescission
claims is not material to our financial condition, results of
operations or cash flows; however, our potential
liability could become material in the future if our stock price were to fall below participants
acquisition prices for their interest in our common stock fund during the one-year period following
the unregistered acquisitions. We are currently exploring various options to limit this potential
liability.
During the first quarter of 2006, we issued an aggregate of 329,090 shares of restricted stock
to employees pursuant to the 2004 Stock Compensation Plan. We believe these securities are not
subject to registration under the no sale principle or were otherwise issued pursuant to
exemptions from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as transactions by an
issuer not involving a public offering.
