NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business
John Bean Technologies Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (JBT Corporation or we) provide global technology solutions for the food processing and air transportation industries. We design, manufacture, test and service technologically sophisticated systems and products for customers through our JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech segments. We have manufacturing operations worldwide and are strategically located to facilitate delivery of our products and services to our customers.
Basis of Presentation
The preceding condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, together with the notes thereto (the statements), of JBT Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes and other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States has been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.
In the opinion of management, the statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition and operating results as of and for the periods presented. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these statements may not be representative of those for the full year or any future period.

On May 22, 2012, we acquired rotary sterilization technology from H.G. Molenaar & Co (Pty) Ltd., headquartered in Paarl, South Africa. This acquisition strengthens JBT FoodTech's in-container sterilization portfolio for the canned food industry. We plan to integrate the Molenaar technology into our existing South African production facility, where we will leverage our current capacity and engineering capabilities. In connection with the acquisition, we recognized $2.0 million of goodwill and $7.2 million of intangible assets, comprised of non-compete agreements, customer lists, and patents and acquired technologies. These assets are deductible for income tax purposes.
NOTE 4. INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes for 2012 is based on a 35% effective tax rate. However, the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 include favorable discrete adjustments to the provision for income taxes of $0.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively, primarily reflecting a lower tax liability for fiscal year 2011.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we contributed $14.9 million to our pension and other postretirement plans and expect to contribute approximately $1.5 million in the remainder of 2012. The contributions are primarily for the U.S. qualified pension plan.

The computation of diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 excludes approximately 0.2 million restricted stock units because they were anti-dilutive. However, these shares may be dilutive in the future.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, 0.3 million shares were issued in connection with our stock-based compensation plan. During the year ended December 31, 2011, 0.4 million shares were issued.
NOTE 7. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
Derivative Financial Instruments
We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries throughout the world and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our major foreign currency exposures involve the markets in Western Europe, South America and Asia. The purpose of our foreign currency hedging activities is to manage the economic impact of exchange rate volatility associated with anticipated foreign currency purchases and sales made in the normal course of business. We primarily utilize forward exchange contracts with maturities of less than 2 years. As of September 30, 2012, we held forward exchange contracts with an aggregate notional value of $499.2 million. Many of our sales and purchase contracts are written contemplating this risk and therefore contain embedded derivatives, which we take into consideration as part of our risk management policy.
As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had one derivative contract designated as a hedging instrument. This derivative has a notional amount of $2.0 million, matures in November 2012 and was immaterial to our financial condition and operating results.
Additionally, during 2010 and through January 31, 2011, we had an interest rate swap that fixed the annual interest rate on a portion of our borrowings under the credit facility at 4.9%.
The following table presents the fair value of foreign exchange derivatives included within the condensed consolidated balance sheets:

Credit Risk
We enter into foreign exchange derivatives primarily with a diversified group of highly rated counterparties. We continually monitor our positions and the credit ratings of the counterparties involved and limit the amount of credit exposure to any one party. These transactions may expose us to potential losses due to the risk of nonperformance by these counterparties. However, we have not incurred a material loss due to nonperformance in any period presented and do not expect to incur any such material loss.
At September 30, 2012, the maximum amount of loss due to the credit risk of the counterparties, should the counterparties fail to perform according to the terms of the contracts, was $1.2 million against which we did not hold any collateral.
NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:
|
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. |
|
Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets. |
|
Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management's own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. |
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Investments primarily represent securities held by a non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Investments are classified as trading securities and are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that we have the ability to access. Investments are included in other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, investments include an unrealized gain of $0.3 million and $0.6 million, respectively. We use the income approach as the valuation technique to measure the fair value of derivative instruments on a recurring basis. This approach calculates the present value of the future cash flow by measuring the change from the derivative contract rate and the published market indicative currency and interest rates, multiplied by the contract notional values, and includes a factor of credit risk.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payables, as well as amounts included in other current assets and other current liabilities that meet the definition of financial instruments, approximate fair values because of their short-term maturities.
The carrying values and the estimated fair values of our debt financial instruments are summarized in the table below:
As of September 30, 2012 As of December 31, 2011 (In millions) Carrying Value Estimated Fair Value Carrying Value Estimated Fair Value 6.66% senior unsecured notes due July 31, 2015 Revolving credit facility, expires on July 31, 2013 Foreign credit facilities 4.5% Brazilian Real loan due December 31, 2012 Other

The fair values of the senior unsecured notes and the Brazilian Real loan were estimated using discounted cash flow analysis based on incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements and are classified in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of the remaining borrowings approximates their fair value due to their variable interest rates.
NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the resolution of the proceedings that we are involved in, either individually or taken as a whole, will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Under our Separation and Distribution Agreement with FMC Technologies, we have assumed liabilities related to specified legal proceedings arising from our business prior to the spin-off. As a result, although FMC Technologies will remain the named defendant, we will manage the litigation and indemnify FMC Technologies for costs, expenses and judgments arising from litigation. We do not believe that any existing litigation we have assumed will have a material effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
Guarantees and Product Warranties
In the ordinary course of business with customers, vendors and others, we issue standby letters of credit, performance bonds, surety bonds and other guarantees. These financial instruments, which totaled approximately $82.2 million at September 30, 2012, represent guarantees of our future performance. We also have provided approximately $6.1 million of bank guarantees and letters of credit to secure a portion of our existing financial obligations. The majority of these financial instruments expire within two years; we expect to replace them through the issuance of new or the extension of existing letters of credit and surety bonds. In some instances we guarantee a small portion of our customers' financing arrangements and retain recourse to the equipment sold. As of September 30, 2012, the maximum future payment obligation of such guarantees was $2.3 million and the associated liability balance was $0.3 million. Historically, we have not made significant payments associated with guarantees of our customers' financing arrangements.
We provide warranties of various lengths and terms to certain of our customers based on standard terms and conditions and negotiated agreements. We provide for the estimated cost of warranties at the time revenue is recognized for products where reliable, historical experience of warranty claims and costs exists. We also provide warranty liability when additional specific obligations are identified. The obligation reflected in other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets is based on historical experience by product and considers failure rates and the related costs in correcting a product failure. Warranty cost and accrual information were as follows:

Corporate expense primarily includes corporate staff expenses. |
In 2011, the Company implemented a cost reduction plan designed to grow margins by lowering costs in JBT FoodTech across the developed world. The cost reduction plan consisted primarily of a workforce reduction of approximately 115 positions. We recognized a pre-tax charge of $10.3 million in connection with the plan in the fourth quarter of 2011. In 2012, we have paid $7.2 million in connection with the cost reduction plan and expect to pay $2.6 million in the remainder of 2012 to complete the plan.

Executive Overview
We are a global technology solutions provider for the food processing and air transportation industries. We design, manufacture, test and service technologically sophisticated systems and products for customers through our JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech segments. We have established a large installed base of food processing equipment as well as airport equipment and have built a strong global presence with manufacturing, sourcing, sales and service organizations located on six continents to support our equipment that has been delivered to more than 100 countries.
As we evaluate our operating results, we consider performance indicators like segment revenue and operating profit in addition to the level of inbound orders and order backlog.
Total revenue in the third quarter of 2012 was $205.3 million, a decline of 11% from the prior-year quarter primarily due to shifts in delivery schedules of several orders. Segment operating profit was $17.4 million, an increase of 3% from the prior-year period. Gross margin expansion across both JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech drove the increase in segment operating profit. Despite the improved performance at the segment level, consolidated operating income for the third quarter was $10.3 million, down 28 percent from last year's third quarter. This decrease is largely attributable to $3.6 million in mark-to-market gains on foreign currency transactions reported in the third quarter of last year, relative to a small loss in the third quarter of this year. Third quarter inbound orders were $258.9 million and backlog was $343.9 million, representing a year-over-year increase of 22% and 11%, respectively. Year-to-date cash generated from continuing operating activities was $68.6 million, resulting in a record low level of debt, net of cash, of $92.4 million at quarter-end.

Total revenue decreased by $25.0 million, or $19.7 million in constant currency, in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. The decrease was driven primarily by shifts in delivery schedules for approximately $26 million of orders across both JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech segments from the third quarter to the fourth quarter of 2012. The delays are further discussed in the respective segment sections. As a result, new equipment revenue decreased by $16.5 million. Recurring revenue decreased by $3.1 million, driven primarily by the lack of larger rebuild projects in JBT AeroTech.
Operating income decreased by $4.0 million in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, while operating income margin decreased from 6.2% to 5.0%. The decrease in operating income resulted from the following:
● |
Gross profit decreased by $5.2 million, or $3.7 million in constant currency. Lower sales volume resulted in $4.9 million of lower profit. Gross profit margin improved by 50 basis points as a result of lower costs and savings from our cost reduction initiatives and resulted in $1.2 million of higher profit. |
● |
Selling, general and administrative expenses as reported remained relatively flat, but increased by $1.6 million in constant currency. The increase was driven primarily by $0.5 million of lower income from the U.S. pension plan, $0.4 million in higher stock-based compensation expense and $0.7 million of higher other costs including consulting costs. |
● |
Research and development expense decreased by $1.2 million as a result of generally lower expenditures across most product lines. |
● |
Other expense, net remained relatively flat. |
Income tax expense in the third quarter of 2012 includes favorable discrete adjustments to income tax provision of $0.7 million, primarily reflecting a lower tax liability for fiscal year 2011. The effective income tax rate for 2012 is 35%, which is consistent with 2011.

* Not meaningful
Segment operating profit is defined as total segment revenue less segment operating expenses. The following items have been excluded in computing segment operating profit: corporate staff expense, foreign currency related gains and losses, LIFO provisions, restructuring costs, certain employee benefit expenses, interest income and expense and income taxes. Other (expense) income, net includes $0.1 million of restructuring costs in 2011 related to JBT FoodTech.
JBT FoodTech
JBT FoodTech's revenue decreased by $12.4 million, or $7.5 million in constant currency, in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. New equipment revenue decreased by $5.6 million, as lower revenue from freezing and chilling products and protein processing products in North America and Asia Pacific were partially offset by higher revenue from the same products in Europe. Recurring revenue declined $1.9 million, driven primarily by a sale in a prior period of equipment previously leased to a customer. The lower revenue in 2012 reflects orders across several regions and product lines where delivery shifted from the third quarter to the fourth quarter of 2012.
JBT FoodTech's operating profit increased $0.8 million, or $1.2 million in constant currency, in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, despite the decline in revenue. Operating profit margins increased from 6.3% to 7.7%. Lower sales volume resulted in $2.0 million of lower profit. However, gross profit margin increased and resulted in $3.4 million of higher profit. Gross profit margin increased as a result of lower costs driven by fewer parts used in servicing leased equipment, lower material costs in our coatings business and savings from our cost reduction initiatives. Additionally, lower spending on selling and research and development activities were offset by higher consulting costs related to an operational efficiency project.
JBT AeroTech
JBT AeroTech's revenue decreased by $10.5 million, or $10.0 million in constant currency, in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Revenue from sales of new equipment was $8.6 million lower, driven by $4.8 million of fewer automated systems projects and $4.2 million of lower revenue from gate equipment projects. Recurring revenue declined by $1.4 million, reflecting lower number of rebuild projects in 2012 compared to 2011. The lower revenue in gate equipment and a slight decrease in revenue in ground support equipment reflect orders for which delivery shifted from the third quarter to the fourth quarter of 2012. The delays in gate equipment were primarily customer driven, while delays in ground support equipment were primarily due to delays in receiving customer orders.
JBT AeroTech's operating profit declined $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Lower sales volume resulted in a decrease in profit of $2.1 million. This decrease was mostly offset by higher gross profit margins from aftermarket and ancillary equipment related to passenger boarding bridges, which resulted in $1.2 million of higher profit. Lower general and administrative spending saved an additional $0.8 million in expenses. Operating profit margins increased from 8.8% to 9.5%.
Corporate Items
Corporate items increased by $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. In the third quarter of 2011, we recognized $3.6 million of gains on foreign currency transactions compared to none in the same period in 2012. A significant portion of our historical gains on foreign currency transactions have been due to entering into foreign exchange forward contracts to economically hedge some of the revenue of our Brazilian subsidiary, which has long-term lease contracts denominated or pegged to the U.S. dollar. We recognize gains on these foreign exchange forwards contracts when the Brazilian Real strengthens against the U.S. dollar and due to higher interest rates in Brazil. While our foreign currency transactions reflect fluctuations in many foreign currencies, for which the financial impacts are not predictable, if interest rates in Brazil continue to decline or U.S. interest rates increase, we do not expect to recognize a similar magnitude of gains in future periods. The increase in corporate items was also reflective of $0.5 million of lower income from the U.S. pension plan and $0.4 million in higher stock-based compensation expense.

Total revenue decreased by $59.9 million, or $43.6 million in constant currency, in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. New equipment revenue decreased by $63.7 million as a result of lower revenue in both of our JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech segments. However, recurring revenue increased by $20.4 million and partially offset the decrease in new equipment revenue.
Operating income decreased by $8.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, while operating income margin decreased from 6.0% to 5.1%. The decrease in operating income resulted from the following:
● |
Gross profit decreased by $11.8 million, or $6.6 million in constant currency. Lower sales volume resulted in $10.8 million of lower profit. Gross profit margin improved slightly as a result of savings from our cost reduction initiatives and resulted in $2.6 million of higher profit. Gross profit benefited by $1.6 million from the absence of restructuring charges recognized in the prior-year period. |
● |
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $1.3 million, or $5.0 million in constant currency. Stock-based compensation expense and retirement benefit costs increased by $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Additionally, we incurred $1.3 million in consulting costs related to operational efficiency projects. |
● |
Research and development expense decreased by $3.8 million as a result of generally lower expenditures across most product lines. |
● |
Other income, net increased by $0.4 million. The increase was driven primarily by the $1.4 million gain on the transfer of the French hospital automated systems contracts and services and was partially offset by $0.6 million of costs related to the Molenaar acquisition. |
Income tax expense in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 reflected an expected effective income tax rate for the full year of 35%. However, in 2012 we recorded $0.6 million of favorable discrete adjustments to the income tax provision, primarily reflecting a lower tax liability for fiscal year 2011.

Segment operating profit is defined as total segment revenue less segment operating expenses. The following items have been excluded in computing segment operating profit: corporate staff expense, foreign currency related gains and losses, LIFO provisions, restructuring costs, certain employee benefit expenses, interest income and expense and income taxes. Other expense, net includes a release of $0.3 million of restructuring reserves in 2012 related to JBT AeroTech and $1.3 million of restructuring costs in 2011 related to JBT FoodTech.
JBT FoodTech
JBT FoodTech's revenue decreased by $19.8 million, but only $4.5 million in constant currency, in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Recurring revenue increased by $13.1 million, driven primarily by higher sales of in-container processing aftermarket products, higher sales of freezing and chilling aftermarket products and higher leasing revenue from fruit and juice processing products. New equipment revenue decreased by $17.4 million and offset the increase in recurring revenue. The decrease in new equipment revenue was driven primarily by $15.0 million of lower sales in the project-based tomato and fruit processing equipment business and $3.3 million of lower sales of freezing and chilling products and protein processing products.
JBT FoodTech's operating profit increased by $1.9 million, or $3.5 million in constant currency, in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011, despite the decline in revenue. Operating profit margins increased from 7.1% to 8.0%. The increase in operating profit was driven by $4.0 million of higher gross profit. Lower sales volume resulted in a reduction of $1.2 million in profits, while higher gross profit margin resulted in $5.2 million of higher profit. Gross profit margin increased as a result of the favorable impact of higher aftermarket revenue and savings from our cost reduction initiatives. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2.3 million higher primarily as a result of consulting costs related to operational efficiency projects. The remaining difference in operating profit was primarily due to lower research and development expenditures.
JBT AeroTech
JBT AeroTech's revenue decreased by $36.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. New equipment revenue declined $43.0 million. Several passenger boarding bridge projects were delayed to late 2012 and 2013, creating a production gap in a business with generally longer lead times, resulting in $35.4 million of lower revenue in 2012 compared to 2011. Additionally, the lack of automated systems orders in 2012 reduced revenue by $5.8 million. However, higher recurring revenue from service contracts and sales of aftermarket products, parts and services partially offset the decrease in revenue by $7.3 million.
JBT AeroTech's operating profit decreased by $2.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. Operating profit margins increased from 8.3% to 8.4%. Lower sales volume resulted in a decrease in profit of $7.3 million. The decrease in profit was partially offset by $1.7 million in higher gross profit margins from aftermarket and ancillary equipment related to passenger boarding bridges, a $1.4 million gain on the transfer of the French hospital automated systems contracts and services, and a decrease of $1.2 million in selling, general and administrative costs.
Corporate Items
Corporate items increased by $8.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. The increase was driven primarily by $5.7 million in lower gains on foreign currency transactions and $1.5 million in lower U.S. pension income.

Order backlog in our JBT FoodTech segment at September 30, 2012 increased by $74.6 million since December 31, 2011 and by $45.5 million since September 30, 2011. The increase since December 31, 2011 was driven by $24.0 million and $21.3 million of higher backlog for freezing and chilling products in Europe and North America, respectively, $12.7 million of higher backlog for in-container processing products and $12.5 million of higher backlog for tomato and fruit processing products. The increase in order backlog since September 30, 2011 was driven by the same products and regions.
Order backlog in our JBT AeroTech segment at September 30, 2012 increased by $23.3 million since December 31, 2011 driven by large orders for ground support equipment and passenger boarding bridges partially offset by lower inbound orders of automated systems products. Order backlog decreased by $12.2 million since September 30, 2011 primarily due to lower order activity for automated systems. During the quarter, two contracts with the U.S. Air Force were modified, resulting in cancellation of $17.5 million in remaining unfilled deliveries on those contracts, and were removed from backlog. There had been no deliveries on these contracts, which had originally totaled $37.5 million, since 2008. The resolution of these contracts did not have any impact on the 2012 sales or earnings.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of capital are cash provided by operating activities of our U.S. and foreign operations and our U.S. credit facility. The cash flows generated by our operations and the credit facility have historically been sufficient to satisfy our working capital needs, research and development activities, capital expenditures, pension contributions, authorized share repurchases, acquisitions and other financing requirements. We are not aware of any circumstances that are likely to result in our liquidity increasing or decreasing materially.
As of September 30, 2012, we had $84.4 million of cash and cash equivalents, $81.4 million of which was held by our foreign subsidiaries. Although these funds are considered permanently invested in our foreign subsidiaries, we are not presently aware of any restrictions on the repatriation of these funds. We maintain substantial operations outside of the U.S., and many of our uses of cash for working capital, capital expenditures and business acquisition arise in these foreign subsidiaries. If these funds were needed to fund our operations or satisfy obligations in the U.S., they could be repatriated and their repatriation into the U.S. could cause us to incur additional U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes. Any additional taxes could be offset, in part or in whole, by foreign tax credits. The amount of such taxes and application of tax credits would be dependent on the income tax laws and other circumstances at the time any of these amounts were repatriated.
Cash Flows
Cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:
(In millions) 2012 2011 Cash provided by continuing operating activities Cash required by investing activities Cash provided (required) by financing activities Net cash required by discontinued operations Effect of foreign exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents Increase in cash and cash equivalents

Cash provided by continuing operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $68.6 million, representing a $24.4 million increase compared to the same period in 2011. The increase was driven by faster collection of accounts receivable, higher advance payments from customers and lower investment in inventory. Additionally, in the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we contributed $12.0 million to our U.S. qualified pension plan compared to $8.0 million in the same period in 2011. In the fourth quarter of 2011, we implemented a $10.3 million cost reduction plan designed to grow margins by lowering costs in JBT FoodTech across the developed world. The cost reduction plan consisted primarily of a workforce reduction of approximately 115 positions. In 2012, we have paid $7.2 million in connection with the cost reduction plan and expect to pay $2.6 million in the remainder of 2012 to complete the plan.
Cash required by investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $21.4 million, representing a $5.4 million increase compared to the same period in 2011. The change in cash flows is primarily attributed to an acquisition, where we paid $5.0 million in May 2012. Under the payment terms of the transaction, we will make the final payment of $5.0 million in December 2012. The remaining investing activities consist primarily of capital expenditures. Much of our spending supports the maintenance and upgrading of our installed base of leased equipment. We anticipate spending $16 to $19 million on construction of a new JBT FoodTech plant in Lakeland, Florida to replace an existing plant in the same area. We have not made substantial investment in this project thus far in 2012 and expect to spend approximately $5 million to $6 million per year in 2013, 2014 and 2015.
Cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $28.6 million compared to cash required by financing activities of $20.2 million in the same period in 2011. The change in the cash flows is primarily attributed to an increase in the funds drawn under our U.S. credit facility. Historically, we have paid quarterly cash dividends of $0.07 per share and have repurchased treasury stock in the market. The share repurchase program was authorized in 2011 for purchases of up to $30 million of our common stock through 2014. The timing, price and volume of future purchases will be based upon market conditions, relevant securities laws and other factors.
Financing Arrangements
We have a $225 million revolving credit facility that expires on July 31, 2013. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest, at our option, at LIBOR or an alternative base rate, which is the greater of JPMorgan Chase, N.A.'s Prime Rate or the Federal Funds Rate plus 50 basis points, plus a margin dependent on our leverage ratio. We are required to make periodic interest payments on the borrowed amounts and pay an annual facility fee ranging from 17.5 to 35 basis points, depending on our leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2012, we had $98.4 million drawn on the credit facility, $9.1 million in letters of credit issued under the credit facility and $117.5 million of additional available funds. We are in the process of renewing the existing credit facility and anticipate that we will be able to do so before the end of 2012.
We have $75 million of 6.66% senior unsecured notes. The senior unsecured notes are due on July 31, 2015 and require us to make semiannual interest payments.
Our credit agreement and notes include restrictive covenants that, if not met, could lead to a renegotiation of our credit lines, requirement to repay our borrowings and/or a significant increase in our cost of financing. At September 30, 2012, we were in compliance with all covenants of our debt agreements as shown in the following table:
Debt Instrument / Covenant Measurement Result as of September 30, 2012 Revolving credit facility Interest coverage ratio (1) Not less than 3.5 10.55 Leverage ratio (2) Not greater than 3.0 2.48 Capital expenditures (3) Not greater than $34.8 million $17.3 million Restricted payments (4) Not greater than $20 million $6.4 million 6.66% senior unsecured notes Interest coverage ratio (1) Not less than 2.75 10.55 Leverage ratio (2) Not greater than 3.25 2.48
___________________
(1) |
Interest coverage ratio is a comparison of the trailing twelve months Consolidated EBITDA, defined as net income plus interest expense plus income tax expense plus depreciation and amortization plus non-cash expenses and extraordinary, unusual and non-recurring items, to trailing twelve months interest expense. |
(2) |
Leverage ratio is a comparison of the total indebtedness, defined as total debt plus guarantees of indebtedness of others plus obligations under financial letters of credit issued against the credit facility, to the trailing twelve months Consolidated EBITDA, as defined above. |
(3) |
Capital expenditures are limited to $30 million plus 50% of the unutilized amount from prior year. |
(4) |
Restricted payments include all payments to shareholders such as dividends and share repurchases. |
We expect to remain in compliance with all restrictive covenants in the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that continued or increased volatility in the global economic conditions will not impair our ability to meet our restrictive covenants, or the volatility in the capital and credit markets will not impair our ability to access these markets on terms acceptable to us or at all.
We have several credit facilities in China and India under which we have drawn $2.1 million and have $4.7 million of additional available funds.
Outlook
We project a record fourth quarter performance, supported by a strong quarter-end backlog and continued savings from cost reduction actions taken earlier in the year. However, we expect a modest top-line contraction for the full-year 2012, primarily resulting from lower than previously forecasted sales volume and shifts in delivery schedules to 2013 of certain large orders. As a result, we expect 2012 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to be in the range of $1.22 to $1.28.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
John Bean Technologies Corporation:
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of John Bean Technologies Corporation and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2012, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of John Bean Technologies Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows and changes in stockholders' equity for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 8, 2012, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.
