THE BRINK’S COMPANY
and subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of presentation

The Brink’s Company (along with its subsidiaries, “Brink’s” or “we”) has nine operating segments:
Each of the five countries within Largest 5 Markets (U.S., France, Mexico, Brazil and Canada)
Each of the three regions within Global Markets (Latin America; Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") and Asia)
Payment Services

Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and applicable quarterly reporting regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.  These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

We have made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.  The most significant estimates are related to goodwill and other long-lived assets, pension and other retirement benefit obligations, legal contingencies, business divestitures and deferred tax assets.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brink’s and the subsidiaries it controls.  Control is determined based on ownership rights or, when applicable, based on whether we are considered to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity.  Our interest in 20% to 50% owned companies that are not controlled are accounted for using the equity method, provided we sufficiently influence the management of the investee.  Other investments are accounted for as cost-method investments or as available-for-sale.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Foreign Currency Translation
Our consolidated financial statements are reported in U.S. dollars.  Our foreign subsidiaries maintain their records primarily in the currency of the country in which they operate.

The method of translating local currency financial information into U.S. dollars depends on whether the economy in which our foreign subsidiary operates has been designated as highly inflationary or not.  Economies with an officially reported three-year cumulative inflation rate of more than 100% are considered highly inflationary.

Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries in non-highly inflationary economies are translated into U.S. dollars using rates of exchange at the balance sheet date.  Translation adjustments are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).  Revenues and expenses are translated at rates of exchange in effect during the year.  Transaction gains and losses are recorded in earnings.

Foreign subsidiaries that operate in highly inflationary countries use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency.  Local-currency monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured into U.S. dollars using rates of exchange as of each balance sheet date, with remeasurement adjustments and other transaction gains and losses recognized in earnings.  Non-monetary assets and liabilities do not fluctuate with changes in local currency exchange rates to the dollar.

Venezuela
The economy in Venezuela has had significant inflation in the last several years.  We consolidate our Venezuelan results using our accounting policy for subsidiaries operating in highly inflationary economies.

Since 2003, the Venezuelan government has controlled the exchange of local currency into other currencies, including the U.S. dollar, and has required that currency exchanges be made at official rates established by the government instead of allowing open markets to determine currency rates.  Different official rates existed for different industries and purposes and the government does not approve all requests to convert bolivars to other currencies.

As a result of the restrictions on currency exchange, we have in the past been unable to obtain sufficient U.S. dollars to purchase certain imported supplies and fixed assets to fully operate our business in Venezuela. Consequently, we have occasionally purchased more expensive, bolivar-denominated supplies and fixed assets. Furthermore, there is a risk that official currency exchange mechanisms will be discontinued or will not be accessible when needed in the future, which may prevent us from repatriating dividends or obtaining dollars to operate our Venezuelan operations.

Remeasurement rates during 2015. In March 2014, the government initiated an exchange mechanism known as SICAD II with conversions subject to specific eligibility requirements.  Transactions were reported in a range of 49 to 52 bolivars to the U.S. dollar.  From March 2014 through December 31, 2014, we received approval to obtain a total of $1.2 million (at a weighted average exchange rate of 51 bolivars to the dollar) through the SICAD II mechanism. Through February 11, 2015, we used the SICAD II rates to remeasure our bolivar-denominated monetary assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars and to translate our revenue and expenses.  Effective February 12, 2015, the government replaced the SICAD II process with a new process, known locally as SIMADI and we began to use the SIMADI rate to remeasure bolivar-denominated monetary assets and liabilities and to translate our revenue and expenses. As a result, we recognized an $18.1 million net remeasurement loss in the first nine months of 2015. The after-tax effect of this loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was $5.7 million for the first nine months of 2015. The SIMADI rates published from mid-February 2015 through the end of 2015 ranged from 170 to 200 bolivars to the U.S. dollar. We received only minimal U.S. dollars through this exchange mechanism.

Remeasurement rates during 2016.   In the first quarter of 2016, the Venezuelan government announced that they would replace the SIMADI exchange mechanism with the DICOM exchange mechanism and would allow the DICOM exchange mechanism rate to float freely. At March 31, 2016, the DICOM rate was approximately 273 bolivars to the dollar. Since March 31, 2016, the rate has declined 59% to close at approximately 659 bolivars to the dollar at September 30, 2016. We have received only minimal U.S. dollars through this exchange mechanism. We recognized a $4.7 million pretax remeasurement loss in the first nine months of 2016.  However, the after-tax effect in the current period attributable to noncontrolling interest was income of $2.7 million.

Items related to our Venezuelan operations are as follows:

Our investment in our Venezuelan operations on an equity-method basis was $20.6 million at September 30, 2016 and $26.0 million at December 31, 2015.
Our Venezuelan operations had net payables to other Brink's affiliates of $9.3 million at September 30, 2016 and $18.7 million at December 31, 2015.
Our Venezuelan operations had net non-monetary assets of $16.7 million at September 30, 2016 and $13.5 million at December 31, 2015.
Our bolivar-denominated net monetary net assets were $2.4 million (including $5.8 million of cash and cash equivalents) at September 30, 2016 and $9.5 million (including $6.2 million of cash and cash equivalents) at December 31, 2015.
Accumulated other comprehensive losses attributable to Brink’s shareholders related to our Venezuelan operations were $112.5 million at September 30, 2016 and $113.0 million at December 31, 2015.

During the second quarter of 2015, Brink's elected to evaluate and pursue strategic options for the Venezuelan business, which required us to perform an impairment review of the carrying values of our Venezuelan long-lived assets in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment. Our asset impairment analysis included management's best estimate of associated cash flows relating to the long-lived assets and included fair value assumptions that reflect conditions that exist in a volatile economic environment. Future events or actions relative to our Venezuelan business may result in further adjustments.

As a result of our impairment analysis, we recognized a $34.5 million impairment charge in the second quarter of 2015. We recognized an additional $0.8 million in impairment charges in the third quarter of 2015. The current carrying value of the long-lived assets of our Venezuelan operations is $9.7 million at September 30, 2016.  We have not reclassified any of the $112.5 million of accumulated other comprehensive losses attributable to Brink’s shareholders related to Brink’s Venezuela into earnings.

Ireland
Due to management's decision in the first quarter of 2016 to exit the Republic of Ireland, the prospective impacts of shutting down this operation are included in items not allocated to segments and are excluded from the operating segments effective March 1, 2016. This activity is also excluded from the consolidated non-GAAP results. Beginning May 1, 2016, due to management's decision to also exit Northern Ireland, the results of shutting down these operations are treated similarly to the Republic of Ireland. Revenues from both Ireland operations to be shut down in 2016 were approximately $20 million in 2015. In the first nine months of 2016, charges excluded from non-GAAP results include $4.8 million in severance costs, $2.0 million in property impairment charges, lease restructuring charges of $0.5 million and an additional $5.3 million in operating and other exit costs. International shipments to and from Ireland will continue to be provided through Brink’s Global Services ("BGS").

Restricted Cash
In France, we offer services to certain of our customers where we manage some or all of their cash supply chains. In connection with this offering, we take temporary title to certain customers' cash, which is included as restricted cash in our financial statements due to customer agreement or regulation (see Note 10). During the second quarter of 2016, we identified a misclassification in our December 31, 2015 consolidated balance sheet included in our 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. This misclassification, which was corrected on our December 31, 2015 condensed consolidated balance sheet included on our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2016, decreased our December 31, 2015 cash and cash equivalents balance and increased restricted cash by $16.4 million, increased restricted cash held for customers and decreased accrued liabilities by $12.9 million, increased short term borrowings and decreased current maturities of long-term debt by $3.5 million. This misclassification had no impact on our December 31, 2015 current assets and current liabilities and it did not impact our consolidated statement of operations, but impacts the December 31, 2015 consolidated statement of cash flows by reducing net cash provided by operating activities from $208.8 million to $195.9 million and increasing net cash used by financing activities

from $49.0 million to $52.5 million. Neither of these changes affect comparability to the previous period. Accordingly, we do not consider this correction to be material to our consolidated balance sheet or statement of cash flows.

Argentina
We use the official exchange rate to translate the Brink's Argentina balance sheet and income statement. At September 30, 2016, the official exchange rate was approximately 15.4 Argentine pesos to the U.S. dollar.

The government in Argentina had previously imposed limits on the exchange of Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars. As a result, we elected in the past and may continue in the future to repatriate cash from Argentina using markets to convert Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars if U.S. dollars are not readily available. Prior to the December 2015 devaluation of the Argentine peso, we converted Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars at rates approximately 30% to 40% less favorable than the rates at which we translated the financial statements of our subsidiary in Argentina. However, after the December 2015 devaluation of the Argentine peso, the market rates used to convert Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars have been similar to the rates at which we translate the financial statements of our subsidiary in Argentina. See Note 10 Supplemental cash flow information for more information.

In the first nine months of 2016, we recognized $0.1 million in losses from converting Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars. In the third quarter of 2015 and in the first nine months of 2015, we recognized $2.3 million in losses from converting Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars. These conversion losses are classified in the income statement as other operating income (expense). At September 30, 2016, we had cash denominated in Argentine pesos of $11.2 million.

New Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts with Customers, a new standard related to revenue recognition which requires an entity to recognize an amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods and services to customers. The new standard will replace most of the existing revenue recognition standards in U.S. GAAP. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, which defers the effective date of this new standard to January 1, 2018. Subsequently, the FASB has continued to refine the standard and has issued several amendments. The new standard can be applied retrospectively to each reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of the change recognized at the date of the initial application in retained earnings. We are assessing the potential impact of this new standard on financial reporting and have not yet selected a transition method.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which will require the recognition of assets and liabilities by lessees for certain leases classified as operating leases under current accounting guidance. The new standard also requires expanded disclosures regarding leasing activities. ASU 2016-02 will be effective January 1, 2019 and we are assessing the potential impact of the standard on financial reporting.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which will simplify how certain features related to share-based payments are accounted for and presented in the financial statements. The new standard is effective January 1, 2017 with early adoption permitted in any interim or annual period. We are assessing the potential impact of this new standard on financial reporting.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which significantly changes the way entities recognize impairment of many financial assets by requiring immediate recognition of estimated credit losses expected to occur over their remaining life. ASU 2016-13 is effective January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted January 1, 2019. We are assessing the potential impact of this new standard on financial reporting.

2016 Compared to U.S. Statutory Rate
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2016 was greater than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to the significant losses related to operations in the Republic of Ireland, for which no tax benefit can be recorded, and the nondeductible expenses resulting from the currency devaluation in Venezuela in the first nine months.

Excluding those items, our effective tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2016 is 48%.  The rate is higher than 35% primarily due to book losses for which no tax benefit can be recorded, nondeductible expenses in Mexico, taxes on undistributed earnings and the characterization of a French business tax as an income tax, partially offset by the geographical mix of earnings and a French income tax credit.

2015 Compared to U.S. Statutory Rate
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2015 was greater than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to the significant nondeductible expenses resulting from the currency devaluation in Venezuela in the first quarter and from the Venezuela impairment recorded in the second quarter. 

Excluding these nondeductible expenses, our effective tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months is 48%. The rate was higher than 35% primarily due to cross border payments, nondeductible expenses in Mexico and the characterization of a French business tax as an income tax, partially offset by the geographical mix of earnings and a French income tax credit.

Note 6 - Fair value of financial instruments

Fixed-Rate Debt
The fair value and carrying value of our fixed-rate debt are as follows:

September 30, 2016
 
December 31, 2015
 
 
 
 
Unsecured notes issued in a private placement
 
 
 
Carrying value
$
85.7

 
92.9

Fair value
88.8

 
95.7


The fair value estimate of our unsecured private-placement notes is based on the present value of future cash flows, discounted at rates for similar instruments at the respective measurement dates, which we have categorized as a Level 3 valuation.

There were no transfers in or out of any of the levels of the valuation hierarchy in the first nine months of 2016.

Other Financial Instruments
Other financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, floating rate debt, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.  The financial statement carrying amounts of these items approximate the fair value.

We have outstanding foreign currency forward and swap contracts to hedge transactional risks associated with foreign currencies.  At September 30, 2016, the notional value of our shorter term outstanding foreign currency forward and swap contracts was $51.9 million, with average maturities of approximately one month.  These shorter term foreign currency forward and swap contracts primarily offset exposures in the British pound and the Mexican peso and are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes. The fair values of these currency contracts are determined using Level 2 valuation techniques and are based on the present value of net future cash payments and receipts.  At September 30, 2016, the fair value of these shorter term foreign currency contracts was not significant.

In 2013, we entered into a longer term cross-currency swap to hedge against the change in value of a long-term intercompany loan denominated in Brazilian real.  This longer term contract is designated as a cash flow hedge for accounting purposes. At September 30, 2016, the notional value of this contract was $9.5 million with a weighted average maturity of 0.7 years. The fair value of the cross-currency swap is determined using Level 2 valuation techniques and is based on the present value of net future cash payments and receipts.  At September 30, 2016, the fair value of this longer term contract was a net asset of $3.8 million, of which $2.4 million is included in prepaid expenses and other and $1.4 million is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.  

In the first quarter of 2016, we entered into two interest rate swaps with a total notional value of $40 million. These swaps were entered into to hedge cash flow risk associated with changes in variable interest rates and are designated as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. At September 30, 2016, the fair value of these swaps was a net liability of $0.5 million. The fair values of these interest rate swaps are determined using Level 2 valuation techniques and are based on the present value of net future cash payments and receipts.

There were no transfers in or out of any of the levels of the valuation hierarchy in the first nine months of 2016.

Note 7 - Share-based compensation plans

We have share-based compensation plans to attract and retain employees and nonemployee directors and to more closely align their interests with those of our shareholders.

We have granted share-based awards to employees under the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan ("2005 Plan") and the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan ("2013 Plan").  These plans permit grants of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock, performance units, stock appreciation rights, stock options, as well as other share-based awards to eligible employees.  The 2013 Plan also permits cash awards to eligible employees.  The 2005 Plan was replaced by the 2013 Plan effective February 2013.  No further grants of awards will be made under the 2005 Plan.

We have granted deferred stock units to directors through the Non-Employee Directors’ Equity Plan.  Share-based awards were granted to directors and remain outstanding under the Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan and the Directors’ Stock Accumulation Plan, both of which have expired.

Outstanding awards at September 30, 2016 include performance share units, market share units, restricted stock units, deferred stock units and stock options.

Compensation Expense
Compensation expense is measured using the fair-value-based method.  For employee and director awards considered equity grants, compensation expense is recognized from the grant date to the earlier of the retirement-eligible date or the vesting date.

In February 2016, the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board of Directors modified the terms of performance share units originally awarded or granted in 2013, 2014 and 2015 to reflect the impact of removing Venezuela operations from the Company’s segment results beginning in 2015. For each of the affected performance share units, consolidated results for 2015 and each subsequent year within the respective performance period was or will be adjusted to reflect Venezuela results at the amount originally projected in the applicable performance target. No incremental compensation cost associated with the modification is expected to be recognized as the modified goal is expected to be more difficult to achieve and, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, we continue to recognize expense as calculated using the original performance goal.

Compensation expense is classified as selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Compensation expenses for the share-based awards were as follows:

Performance Share Units ("PSUs”)
Prior to 2016, we granted PSUs which contained a performance condition, a market condition and a service condition. In 2016, we granted Internal Metric PSUs ("IM PSUs") and Total Shareholder Return PSUs ("TSR PSUs").

IM PSUs contain a performance condition as well as a service condition. We measure the fair value of these PSUs based on the price of Brink’s stock at the grant date, adjusted for a discount for dividends not received or accrued during the vesting period. For the majority of the IM PSUs granted in 2016, the performance period is from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2017, with an additional year of service required.
Other IM PSUs granted in 2016 have a performance period from July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017, with an additional two years of service required.

TSR PSUs contain a market condition as well as a service condition. We measure the fair value of PSUs containing a market condition at the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model.  For the TSR PSUs granted in 2016, the performance period is from January 1, 2016 to December 1, 2018.

Deferred Stock Units ("DSUs")
We granted DSUs to our independent directors. We measure the fair value of DSUs at the grant date, based on the price of Brink's stock.

In 2015 and 2016, our independent directors received grants of DSUs that vest and will be paid out in shares of Brink's stock on the first anniversary of the grant date, provided that the director has not elected to defer the distribution of shares until a later date. DSUs are forfeited if a director leaves before the vesting date. However, in connection with the retirement of two directors in January 2016, our board of directors waived the one-year vesting provision for those DSUs granted in 2015. The impact of this modification was recorded in the first quarter of 2016 and was not significant.

DSUs granted prior to 2015, in general, will be paid out in shares of stock following separation from service.

We have deferred compensation plans for directors and certain of our employees.  For participants electing to defer compensation into common stock units, amounts owed to participants will be paid out in shares of Brink's common stock.  Each unit represents one share of common stock.  The number of shares used to calculate basic earnings per share includes the weighted-average units credited to employees and directors under the deferred compensation plans.  Accordingly, included in basic shares are 0.5 million in the three months and 0.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2016, and 0.5 million in the three months and 0.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

The loss from operations in the first nine months of 2015 included $1.0 million in pension settlement charges related to the Mexican parcel delivery service sold in February 2015.
(c)
Primarily related to former businesses previously exited.

Operations sold classified as discontinued operations:
In February 2015, we sold a small Mexican parcel delivery business which met the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation as of December 31, 2014.

Other divestitures not classified as discontinued operations:
We sold an Irish guarding operation in November 2015.
We sold our 70% ownership interest in a Russian cash management business in November 2015 and recognized a $5.9 million loss on the disposition in the fourth quarter of 2015. A significant part of the loss ($5.0 million) represented the reclassification of foreign currency adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings.

Revenues and income (loss) from operations before tax were not significant for the Irish guarding business or the Russian cash management business.

Argentina Debt Security Transactions
We have elected in the past and could continue in the future to repatriate cash from Brink’s Argentina using different means to convert Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars. In the first nine months of 2016, cash outflows from the purchase of debt securities totaled $2.1 million and cash inflows from the sale of these securities totaled $2.0 million. In the first nine months of 2015, cash outflows from the purchase of these securities totaled $6.9 million and cash inflows from the sale of these securities totaled $4.6 million. The net cash flows from these transactions are treated as operating cash flows as the debt securities are purchased specifically for resale and are generally sold within a short period of time from the date of purchase.

Non-cash Investing and Financing Activities
We acquired $18.9 million in armored vehicles and other equipment under capital lease arrangements in the first nine months of 2016 compared to $8.5 million in armored vehicles and point of sale equipment acquired under capital lease arrangements in the first nine months of 2015.

Cash Supply Chain Services
In France, we offer services to certain of our customers where we manage some or all of their cash supply chains. Providing this service requires our French subsidiary to take temporary title to the cash received from the management of our customers' cash supply chains until the cash is returned to the customers. As part of this service offering, we have entered into lending arrangements with some of our customers. Cash borrowed under these lending arrangements is used in the process of managing these customers' cash supply chains. The cash for which we have temporary title and the cash borrowed under these customer lending arrangements is restricted and cannot be used for any other purpose other than to service our customers who participate in this service offering.

At September 30, 2016, we held $46.8 million of restricted cash ($13.5 million represented short-term borrowings and $33.3 million represented restricted cash held for customers). At December 31, 2015, we held $16.4 million of restricted cash ($3.5 million represented short-term borrowings and $12.9 million represented restricted cash held for customers).

Note 11 - Contingent matters

On June 19, 2008, a lawsuit captioned Del Valle Gurria S.C. v. Servicio Pan Americano de Protección, S.A. de C.V. was filed with the Twenty-third Civil Judge in the Federal District in Mexico (the “Court”) against Servicio Pan American de Proteccion, S.A. de C.V. (SERPAPROSA), the Mexico subsidiary that we acquired in November 2010. The plaintiff claims it is owed legal fees and corresponding value-added tax (VAT), interest and expenses related to its legal representation of SERPAPROSA in connection with tax audits covering the 1991, 1992 and 1994 fiscal years.  On October 28, 2010, the Court issued a decision in favor of SERPAPROSA in part and the plaintiff in part, ordering SERPAPROSA to pay the plaintiff less than $1 million for its previous representation of SERPAPROSA. Between November 2010 and October 2013, the judgment was subject to multiple appeals by both parties to the Fifth Civil Court of Appeal of the Federal District in Mexico (the “Fifth Civil Court of Appeal”) and to the First Civil Collegiate Tribunal of the First Circuit in Mexico (the “First Civil Collegiate Tribunal”), and was remanded twice to the Court for determination of the fees to be paid to the plaintiff. On December 6, 2013, the Fifth Civil Court of Appeal issued a decision in favor of the plaintiff, modifying the lower court’s ruling and ordering SERPAPROSA to pay the plaintiff approximately $7 million plus VAT and interest for its previous representation of SERPAPROSA. SERPAPROSA filed a constitutional injunction on January 20, 2014 with the First Civil Collegiate Tribunal. The appeal was granted in favor of SERPAPROSA on September 17, 2014, ordering SERPAPROSA to pay approximately $2 million plus VAT and interest. The plaintiff filed an appeal on October 7, 2014, with the Mexico Supreme Court, which was rejected by the court on October 22, 2014. The plaintiff filed two subsequent actions appealing the Supreme Court’s October 22, 2014 decision, one before the First Appellate Court in Civil Matters of the First Circuit (the “Appellate Court”) and one with the Mexico Supreme Court. The action filed before the Appellate Court was rejected on February 16, 2015. The action filed with the Mexico Supreme Court was rejected on October 15, 2016.

During the fourth quarter of 2015, we became aware of an investigation initiated by COFECE (the Mexican antitrust agency) related to potential anti-competitive practices among competitors in the cash logistics industry in Mexico (the industry in which Brink’s Mexican subsidiary, SERPAPROSA, is active). Because no legal proceedings have been initiated against SERPAPROSA, we cannot estimate the probability of loss or any range of estimate of possible loss at this time. It is possible that SERPAPROSA could become the subject of legal or administrative claims or proceedings, however, that could result in a loss that could be material to the Company’s results in a future period.

In addition, we are involved in various other lawsuits and claims in the ordinary course of business. We are not able to estimate the loss or range of losses for some of these matters. We have recorded accruals for losses that are considered probable and reasonably estimable. Except as otherwise noted, we do not believe that the ultimate disposition of any of the lawsuits currently pending against the Company should have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial position or results of operations.

Note 12 - Reorganization and Restructuring

2015 Reorganization and Restructuring
Brink's initiated a global restructuring of its business in the third quarter of 2015 and recognized $11.6 million in related 2015 costs. We recognized an additional $5.3 million in costs in the first nine months of 2016 related to employee severance, contract terminations, and lease terminations associated with the restructuring. The 2015 Reorganization and Restructuring is expected to reduce the global workforce by approximately 1,100 positions and is projected to result in $20 to $25 million in 2016 cost savings. At September 30, 2016, the actions under this program were substantially completed, with cumulative pretax charges of approximately $17 million.

The following table summarizes the costs incurred, payments and utilization, and foreign currency exchange effects of the 2015 Reorganization and Restructuring:

Executive Leadership and Board of Directors Restructuring
In the fourth quarter of 2015, we recognized $1.8 million in costs related to the restructuring of executive leadership and Board of Directors,
which was announced in January 2016. We also recognized an additional $4.3 million in charges, primarily severance costs, in the first nine months of 2016. At September 30, 2016, $1.4 million was recorded in accrued liabilities related to these restructuring actions, which include the departure of our former CFO in September 2016, our former CEO in May 2016 and the retirement of two Board members in January 2016.

2014 Reorganization and Restructuring
In the fourth quarter of 2014, we announced a reorganization and restructuring of Brink’s global organization to accelerate the execution of our strategy by reducing costs and providing for a more streamlined and centralized organization. As part of this program, we reduced our total workforce by approximately 1,700 positions. The restructuring saved annual direct costs of approximately $50 million in 2015 compared to 2014, excluding charges for severance, lease termination and accelerated depreciation. We recorded total pretax charges of $21.8 million in 2014 and an additional $1.2 million of pretax charges in the first nine months of 2015 related to the 2014 Reorganization and Restructuring. The actions under this program were substantially completed by the end of 2015 with cumulative pretax charges of approximately $24 million, primarily severance costs.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated Review

GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We provide an analysis of our operations below on both a generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and non-GAAP basis.  The purpose of the non-GAAP information is to report our operating profit, income from continuing operations and earnings per share without certain income and expense items that do not reflect the ordinary earnings of our operations and to reflect a constant tax rate for quarterly results equal to the full-year non-GAAP tax rate.  The non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide information to assist comparability and estimates of future performance.  The non-GAAP adjustments used to reconcile our GAAP results are described on pages 39–41.

Definition of Organic Growth
Organic growth represents the change in revenues or operating profit between the current and prior period, excluding the effect of acquisitions and dispositions, changes in currency exchange rates (as described on page 29) and the accounting effects of reporting Venezuela under highly inflationary accounting.

Non-GAAP results are reconciled to the applicable GAAP results on pages 39–41.


GAAP Basis
Analysis of Consolidated Results: Third Quarter 2016 versus Third Quarter 2015
Consolidated Revenues  Revenues decreased $3.4 million as unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates ($75.4 million) and the impact of dispositions ($9.3 million) were mostly offset by organic growth in Venezuela ($47.3 million), Latin America ($23.5 million), and Brazil ($6.5 million). A significant portion of the reduction in revenues from currency exchange rates relates to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Venezuela bolivar, Argentinian peso, and Mexican peso.  Revenues increased 11% on an organic basis due mainly to higher average selling prices in Venezuela and Latin America (including the effects of inflation). See above for our definition of “organic.”

Consolidated Costs and Expenses  Cost of revenues decreased 2% to $602.4 million as inflation-based cost increases, including labor costs, were more than offset by changes in currency rates.  Selling, general and administrative costs decreased 6% to $103.9 million due primarily to changes in currency exchange rates.

Consolidated Operating Profit Operating profit increased $24.7 million due mainly to:
organic increases in Venezuela ($14.2 million), Latin America ($11.8 million), Brazil ($6.5 million), and Payment Services ($3.0 million) and
lower corporate expenses ($2.0 million on an organic basis),
partially offset by:
unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates ($13.1 million).

Consolidated Income from Continuing Operations Attributable to Brink’s and Related Per Share Amounts  Income from continuing operations attributable to Brink’s shareholders in 2016 increased $16.8 million to $24.5 million primarily due to the operating profit increase mentioned above, partially offset by higher income tax expense ($5.4 million) and higher income attributable to noncontrolling interests ($1.8 million). Earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.48, up from $0.16 in 2015.




25



Analysis of Consolidated Results: Nine Months 2016 versus Nine Months 2015
Consolidated Revenues  Revenues decreased $78.5 million or 3% due to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates ($287.9 million), the impact of dispositions ($25.0 million), and an organic decrease in EMEA ($12.9 million), partially offset by organic growth in Venezuela ($140.9 million), Latin America ($62.3 million), Brazil ($23.8 million), and Mexico ($11.9 million).  A significant portion of the reduction in revenues from currency exchange rates relates to a devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar.  The U.S. dollar also strengthened against the Mexican peso, Brazilian real, and most currencies in Latin America.  Revenues increased 10% on an organic basis due mainly to higher average selling prices in Venezuela and Latin America (including the effects of inflation). See page 25 for our definition of “organic.”

Consolidated Costs and Expenses  Cost of revenues decreased 3% to $1,803.9 million as higher costs from inflation-based increases, including labor costs, were more than offset by changes in currency rates.  Selling, general and administrative costs decreased 7% to $320.9 million due primarily to changes in currency exchange rates.

Consolidated Operating Profit Operating profit increased $62.3 million due mainly to:
a $35.3 million charge in 2015 related to impairment of fixed assets in Venezuela, which did not reoccur in 2016
organic increases in Venezuela ($48.6 million), Latin America ($30.4 million), and Brazil ($9.3 million)
a lower remeasurement loss of net monetary assets ($13.4 million) as a result of the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency (an $18.1 million charge in 2015 compared to a $4.7 million charge in 2016) and
lower corporate expenses ($10.2 million on an organic basis),
partially offset by:
unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates ($47.1 million), excluding the effects of Venezuela devaluations
organic decreases in the U.S. ($17.6 million) and Mexico ($4.8 million) and
costs recorded in association with the exit of operations in Ireland ($12.6 million).

Consolidated Loss from Continuing Operations Attributable to Brink’s and Related Per Share Amounts  Income from continuing operations attributable to Brink’s shareholders in 2016 increased $27.6 million to $21.7 million primarily due to the operating profit increase mentioned above, partially offset by higher income attributable to noncontrolling interests ($27.5 million) and higher income tax expense ($6.2 million). Earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.43, up from negative $0.12 in 2015.


Non-GAAP Basis
Analysis of Consolidated Results: Third Quarter 2016 versus Third Quarter 2015
Non-GAAP Consolidated Revenues  Non-GAAP revenues decreased $5.0 million or 1% as unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates ($29.2 million) and the impact of dispositions ($9.8 million) were mostly offset by organic growth in Latin America ($23.5 million), and Brazil ($6.5 million). The reduction in non-GAAP revenues from currency exchange rates relates to a strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Mexican peso and Argentinian peso.  Non-GAAP revenues increased 5% on an organic basis due mainly to higher average selling prices in Latin America (including the effects of inflation).  See page 25 for our definition of “organic.”

Non-GAAP Consolidated Operating Profit  Non-GAAP operating profit increased $23.7 million in 2016 primarily due to organic increases in Latin America ($11.8 million), Brazil ($6.5 million), and Payment Services ($3.0 million), as well as lower corporate expenses ($2.0 million on an organic basis).

Non-GAAP Consolidated Income from Continuing Operations Attributable to Brink’s and Related Per Share Amounts  Non-GAAP income from continuing operations attributable to Brink’s shareholders in 2016 increased $12.4 million to $32.5 million primarily due to the non-GAAP operating profit increase mentioned above, partially offset by a higher non-GAAP tax expense ($9.7 million). Non-GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.64, up from $0.40 in 2015.

26




Analysis of Consolidated Results: Nine Months 2016 versus Nine Months 2015
Non-GAAP Consolidated Revenues   Non-GAAP revenues decreased $103.3 million or 5% due to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates ($169.0 million), the impact of dispositions ($27.8 million), and an organic decrease in EMEA ($12.9 million), partially offset by organic growth in Latin America ($62.3 million), Brazil ($23.8 million), and Mexico ($11.9 million).  The reduction in non-GAAP revenues from currency exchange rates relates to a strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Mexican peso, Brazilian real, and most currencies in Latin America.  Non-GAAP revenues increased 4% on an organic basis due mainly to higher average selling prices in Latin America (including the effects of inflation).  See page 25 for our definition of “organic.”

Non-GAAP Consolidated Operating Profit  Non-GAAP operating profit increased $21.5 million in 2016 primarily due to:
organic increases in Latin America ($30.4 million) and Brazil ($9.3 million) and
lower corporate expenses ($10.2 million on an organic basis),
partially offset by:
unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates ($14.6 million) and
organic decreases in the U.S. ($17.6 million) and Mexico ($4.8 million).

Non-GAAP Consolidated Income from Continuing Operations Attributable to Brink’s and Related Per Share Amounts  Non-GAAP income from continuing operations attributable to Brink’s shareholders in 2016 increased $9.6 million to $66.4 million primarily due to the non-GAAP operating profit decrease mentioned above, partially offset by a higher Non-GAAP tax expense ($9.9 million). Non-GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations was $1.32, up from $1.14 in 2015.

Outlook

Outlook for 2016
On a GAAP basis, our organic revenue growth rate for 2016 compared to our 2015 GAAP results is expected to be approximately 8% or $249 million, and our estimate of the negative impact of changes in currency exchange rates on revenues is approximately 10% or $304 million.  Our operating profit margin on a GAAP basis is expected to be in the range of 4.5% to 5.0%.  

Our organic revenue growth rate for 2016 compared to our 2015 Non-GAAP results is expected to be approximately 5% or $142 million, and our estimate of the negative impact of changes in currency exchange rates on revenues is approximately 6% or $185 million.  Our operating profit margin on a non-GAAP basis is expected to be in the range of 6.4% to 6.9%.  Operating profit margin in the U.S. is expected to be 0.7% to 2%. Operating profit margin in Mexico is expected to be approximately 6%.

Amounts may not add due to rounding

(a)
See pages 39-41 for information about reconciliations to GAAP. The 2016 Non-GAAP outlook amounts for provision for income taxes, income (loss) from continuing operations, EPS from continuing operations, effective income tax rate and Adjusted EBITDA cannot be reconciled to GAAP without unreasonable effort. We cannot reconcile these amounts to GAAP because we are unable to accurately forecast the tax impact of Venezuela operations and the related exchange rates used to measure those operations. The impact of Venezuela operations and related exchange rates during the remainder of 2016 could be significant to our full-year GAAP provision for income taxes, and, therefore, to income (loss) from continuing operations, EPS from continuing operations, effective income tax rate and Adjusted EBITDA.
(b)
2016 GAAP outlook includes the actual impact of Venezuela operations through September 30, 2016, but does not include any forecasted amounts from Venezuela operations for the fourth quarter of 2016.
(c)
2015 non-GAAP amounts exclude Venezuela capital expenditures of $4.3 million and Venezuela depreciation and amortization of fixed assets of $3.9 million. Depreciation and amortization of fixed assets does not include intangible asset amortization.
(d)
Includes capital leases for newly acquired assets only.
(e)
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as non-GAAP income from continuing operations excluding the impact of non-GAAP interest expense, non-GAAP income tax provision and non-GAAP depreciation and amortization.

Analysis of Segment Results: Third Quarter 2016 versus Third Quarter 2015

Largest 5 Markets

U.S. Revenues increased 1% ($1.6 million) due to organic revenue growth as a result of volume increases.  Operating profit increased $0.8 million to $2.2 million driven by productivity improvements and lower security costs, partially offset by higher vehicle insurance costs.

France  Revenues decreased 2% due to an organic decrease ($2.3 million) driven by a decline in guarding activities. Operating profit decreased 7% ($1.0 million) due to labor costs.

Mexico  Revenues decreased 12% ($9.4 million) due to unfavorable currency impact ($10.5 million), partially offset by a 1% organic increase ($1.1 million) from volume growth.  Operating profit decreased 9% ($0.3 million) due to unfavorable currency impact ($0.4 million).

Brazil  Revenues increased 20% ($12.8 million) primarily due to organic growth ($6.5 million) driven by price and volume increases, and the favorable impact of currency exchange rates ($6.3 million). Operating profit increased $7.4 million due to organic growth ($6.5 million) on a social tax credit, productivity improvements, and price and volume increases.

Canada  Revenues increased 2% ($0.8 million) primarily due to organic growth ($0.7 million) driven by growth in ATM activities. Operating profit decreased 33% ($1.2 million) driven primarily by inflationary cost increases and low revenue growth.

Global Markets

Latin America  Revenues decreased 2% ($1.4 million) as the negative impact of currency exchange rates ($24.9 million) was partially offset by organic growth of 26% ($23.5 million) driven by inflation-based price increases in Argentina.  Operating profit increased 30% ($5.3 million) driven by higher organic results in Argentina, Colombia, and Chile, partially offset by unfavorable currency impact ($6.5 million). Argentina accounted for over half of Latin America profit in the third quarter of 2016.

EMEA  Revenues decreased 11% ($12.1 million) primarily due to the impact of dispositions ($9.8 million), as well as unfavorable currency ($2.4 million). Operating profit increased 22% ($2.1 million) due primarily to the favorable impact of dispositions ($1.2 million) and higher profits in Morocco and Israel.

Asia  Revenues increased 8% ($3.2 million) due mainly to organic growth in Singapore and Hong Kong. Operating profit increased 7% ($0.5 million) primarily due to revenue growth.

Payment Services

Payment Services  Revenues increased 6% ($1.4 million) primarily due to the favorable impact of currency exchange rates ($1.1 million). Operating profit increased $3.1 million, driven by revenue growth and lower marketing expenditures related to increasing cardholders in the U.S. Payments business, partially offset by a decline in Brazil.

Third quarter 2016 corporate expenses were down $7.0 million versus the prior year quarter due to lower foreign currency transaction losses and the benefit of 2015 restructuring activities. Corporate expenses in the first nine months of 2016 were down $21.7 million, also due to lower compensation-related expenses, along with the recognition of foreign currency transaction gains in the current year period compared to foreign currency transaction losses in the prior year period. Corporate expenses include former non-segment and regional management costs, currency transaction gains and losses, and costs related to global initiatives.

The impact of other items not allocated to segments on operating profit was a loss of $10.7 million in the third quarter of 2016 versus the prior year period loss of $11.7 million. The change was primarily due to losses related to the shutdown of Ireland operations in 2016 partially offset by profits earned by Venezuela operations in the current year quarter. The impact of other items not allocated to segments on operating profit was a loss of $43.8 million in the first nine months of 2016 versus a loss of $84.6 million in the prior year period. The reduction was primarily due to the $35.3 million of Venezuela impairment charges recognized in the prior year period as well as lower losses related to currency devaluation in Venezuela in the current year period. The Venezuela-related items were partially offset by charges related to the shutdown of operations in Ireland, a loss on the sale of corporate assets and higher reorganization and restructuring costs in 2016.
Venezuela operations We have excluded from our segment results all of our Venezuela operating results, including expenses related to currency devaluations of $11.2 million and $30.4 million in the first nine months of 2016 and 2015, respectively, due to management’s inability to allocate, generate or redeploy resources in-country or globally. In light of these unique circumstances, our operations in Venezuela are largely independent of the rest of our global operations. As a result, the Chief Executive Officer, the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"), assesses segment performance and makes resource decisions by segment excluding Venezuela operating results. Additionally, management believes excluding Venezuela from segment results makes it possible to more effectively evaluate the company’s performance between periods.  

Factors considered by management in excluding Venezuela results include:
Continued inability to repatriate cash to redeploy to other operations or dividend to shareholders
Highly inflationary environment
Fixed exchange rate policy
Continued currency devaluations and
Difficulty raising prices and controlling costs

Reorganization and Restructuring Brink’s reorganized and restructured its business in December 2014, eliminating the management roles and structures in its former Latin America and EMEA regions and implementing a plan to reduce the cost structure of various country operations by eliminating approximately 1,700 positions across its global workforce.  Severance costs of $21.8 million associated with these actions were recognized in 2014. An additional $1.2 million was recognized in the first nine months of 2015 related to the 2014 restructuring. The restructuring saved annual direct costs of approximately $50 million in 2015 compared to 2014, excluding charges for severance, lease termination and accelerated depreciation.

33




Brink's initiated an additional restructuring of its business in the third quarter of 2015. We recognized $5.3 million of costs in the first nine months of 2016 related to employee severance, contract terminations and lease terminations associated with the 2015 restructuring, which is expected to reduce the global workforce by approximately 1,100 positions and is projected to result in $20 to $25 million in 2016 cost savings.

In the fourth quarter of 2015, we recognized $1.8 million in charges related to Executive Leadership and Board of Directors restructuring actions, which were announced in January 2016. We recognized $4.3 million in charges in the first nine months of 2016 related to the Executive Leadership and Board of Directors restructuring actions.

Due to the unique circumstances around these charges, they have not been allocated to segment results and are excluded from non-GAAP results.

U.S. and Mexican retirement plans  Because our U.S. retirement plans are frozen, costs related to these plans have not been allocated to segment results. Mexico is the only operating segment in which employee termination benefits are accounted for as retirement benefits under FASB ASC Topic 715, Compensation — Retirement Benefits. As a result, settlement charges related to these termination benefits have not been allocated to segment results.

Acquisitions and dispositions Certain acquisition and disposition items that are not considered part of the ongoing activities of the business and are special in nature are consistently excluded from non-GAAP results. Due to management's decision in the first quarter of 2016 to exit the Republic of Ireland, the prospective impacts of shutting down this operation are included in items not allocated to segments and are excluded from the operating segments effective March 1, 2016. This activity is also excluded from the consolidated non-GAAP results. Beginning May 1, 2016, due to management's decision to also exit Northern Ireland, the results of shutting down these operations are treated similarly to the Republic of Ireland. Revenues from both Ireland operations to be shut down in 2016 were approximately $20 million in 2015. Charges included in our GAAP results include $4.8 million in severance costs, $2.0 million in property impairment charges, lease restructuring charges of $0.5 million and an additional $5.3 million in operating and other exit costs. These costs have been excluded from our segment and our consolidated non-GAAP results. International shipments to and from Ireland will continue to be provided through BGS. We also recognized a $2.0 million loss related to the sale of corporate assets in the second quarter of 2016.

2016 Outlook
See page 49 for a 5-year projection of expenses based on current assumptions for our significant U.S. retirement plans.

Foreign Operations

We currently serve customers in more than 100 countries, including 41 countries where we operate subsidiaries.

We are subject to risks customarily associated with doing business in foreign countries, including labor and economic conditions, political instability, controls on repatriation of earnings and capital, nationalization, expropriation and other forms of restrictive action by local governments.  Changes in the political or economic environments in the countries in which we operate could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  The future effects, if any, of these risks are unknown.

Our international operations conduct a majority of their business in local currencies.  Because our financial results are reported in U.S. dollars, they are affected by changes in the value of various local currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar.  The strengthening of the U.S. dollar has reduced our reported dollar revenues and operating profit as compared to the 2015 period.  Our operations in Venezuela are subject to local laws and regulatory interpretations that determine the exchange rate at which repatriating dividends may be converted.

Changes in exchange rates may also affect transactions which are denominated in currencies other than the functional currency.  From time to time, we use foreign currency forward and swap contracts to hedge transactional risks associated with foreign currencies.  At September 30, 2016, the notional value of our shorter term outstanding foreign currency forward and swap contracts was $51.9 million with average contract maturities of approximately one month.  These shorter term foreign currency forward and swap contracts primarily offset exposures in the British pound and the Mexican peso.  Additionally, these shorter term contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, and accordingly, changes in their fair value are recorded immediately in earnings.  We recognized losses of $2.0 million on these contracts in the first nine months of 2016.  At September 30, 2016, the fair value of these shorter term foreign currency contracts was not significant.

We also have a longer term cross currency swap contract to hedge exposure in Brazilian real which is designated as a cash flow hedge for accounting purposes.  At September 30, 2016, the notional value of this longer term contract was $9.5 million with a weighted average maturity of 0.7 years.  We recognized net losses of $1.5 million on this contract, of which losses of $1.3 million were included in other operating income (expense) to offset transaction gains of $1.3 million, and expenses of $0.2 million, which were included in interest and other income (expense) in the first nine months of 2016.  At September 30, 2016, the fair value of the longer term cross currency swap contract was $3.8 million, of which $2.4 million is included in prepaid expenses and other and $1.4 million is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet.

See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for a description of government currency processes and restrictions in Venezuela and Argentina, their effect on our operations, and how we account for currency remeasurement for our Venezuelan subsidiaries.

Other operating income was $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2016 versus $6.4 million of expense in the prior year period. The higher expense in the prior year quarter resulted primarily from higher foreign currency transaction losses ($3.3 million) as well as higher losses from converting Argentine pesos to U.S. dollars ($2.3 million). Other operating expense was down in the first nine months of 2016 compared to the first nine months of 2015 primarily as a result of the prior year Venezuela impairment charge as well as lower remeasurement losses related to Venezuela currency devaluation in the current year period. See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for a description of the change in currency exchange processes and rates in Venezuela.

2016 Compared to U.S. Statutory Rate
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2016 was greater than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to the significant losses related to operations in the Republic of Ireland, for which no tax benefit can be recorded, and the nondeductible expenses resulting from the currency devaluation in Venezuela in the first nine months.

Excluding those items, our effective tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2016 is 48%.  The rate is higher than 35% primarily due to book losses for which no tax benefit can be recorded, nondeductible expenses in Mexico, taxes on undistributed earnings and the characterization of a French business tax as an income tax, partially offset by the geographical mix of earnings and a French income tax credit.

2015 Compared to U.S. Statutory Rate
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2015 was greater than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to the significant nondeductible expenses resulting from the currency devaluation in Venezuela in the first quarter and from the Venezuela impairment recorded in the second quarter. 

Excluding these nondeductible expenses, our effective tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months is 48%. The rate was higher than 35% primarily due to cross border payments, nondeductible expenses in Mexico and the characterization of a French business tax as an income tax, partially offset by the geographical mix of earnings and a French income tax credit.

Deferred Tax Assets
Deferred tax assets are future tax deductions that result primarily from the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax purposes.  At December 31, 2015, we had $273 million of U.S. deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowances, primarily related to our post-retirement benefit plan obligations with a limited amount of deferred tax assets having an expiration date.  As previously disclosed, these future tax deductions may not be realized if tax rules change or if projected future taxable income is insufficient.  Although management lowered the 2016 guidance for the U.S. operations in the second quarter of 2016, we continue to believe that the Company is more-likely-than-not to realize the U.S. deferred tax assets, but we will continue to monitor each quarter.  Not realizing our U.S. deferred tax assets could significantly and materially affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Outlook for 2016
Due to the significant costs related to winding down operations in the Republic of Ireland, for which no tax benefit can be recorded, and the nondeductible Venezuela remeasurement charges, the GAAP effective income tax rate for 2016 is expected to be approximately 50%.  This rate does not consider Venezuela activity for the second half of the year due to the inability to accurately forecast the operations and the related exchange rates used to measure those operations.  On a non-GAAP basis, the effective income tax rate for 2016 is expected to be approximately 39%.  Our effective tax rate may fluctuate materially from these estimates due to changes in permanent book-tax differences, changes in the expected amount and geographical mix of earnings, changes in current or deferred taxes due to legislative changes, changes in valuation allowances or accruals for contingencies and other factors. See page 28 for a summary of our 2016 outlook.

The change from a $0.4 million net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the third quarter of 2015 to $1.4 million of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the third quarter of 2016 was primarily due to improved results in Venezuela.

The change from a $20.4 million net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the first nine months of 2015 to $7.1 million of net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the first nine months of 2016 was primarily due to lower impacts of currency devaluations in Venezuela as well as an impairment charge related to Venezuelan property, plant and equipment in the prior year period.

See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for more information about the currency devaluations of our Venezuelan subsidiaries and the impairment charges related to these operations. 

Outlook for 2016
We expect the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests to be between $8 and $10 million on a GAAP basis in 2016 as compared to net loss of $16 million in 2015. We expect the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests to be between $5 and $7 million on a non-GAAP basis in 2016 as compared to $5 million in 2015.  See page 28 for a summary of our 2016 Outlook and pages 39–41 for information about reconciliation to GAAP.

Discontinued operations include gains and losses related to businesses that we recently sold.  No interest expense was included in discontinued operations in the first nine months of 2015.
(b)
The loss from operations in the first nine months of 2015 included $1.0 million in pension settlement charges related to the Mexican parcel delivery service sold in February 2015.
(c)
Primarily related to former businesses previously exited.

Operations sold classified as discontinued operations:
In February 2015, we sold a small Mexican parcel delivery business which met the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation as of December 31, 2014.

Other divestitures not classified as discontinued operations:
We sold an Irish guarding operation in November 2015.
We sold our 70% ownership interest in a Russian cash management business in November 2015 and recognized a $5.9 million loss on the disposition in the fourth quarter of 2015. A significant part of the loss ($5.0 million) represented the reclassification of foreign currency adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings.

Revenues and income (loss) from operations before tax were not significant for the Irish guarding business or the Russian cash management business.

Non-GAAP Results Reconciled to GAAP

Non-GAAP results described in this filing are financial measures that are not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. The purpose of the non-GAAP results is to report financial information from the primary operations of our business by excluding the effects of certain income and expenses that do not reflect the ordinary earnings of our operations. The specific items excluded have not been allocated to segments, are described in detail on pages 33–34, and are reconciled to comparable GAAP measures below.

Non-GAAP results adjust the quarterly non-GAAP tax rates so that the non-GAAP tax rate in each of the quarters is equal to the full-year estimated non-GAAP tax rate. The full-year non-GAAP tax rate in both years excludes certain pretax and income tax amounts. Amounts reported for prior periods have been updated in this report to present information consistently for all periods presented.

The 2016 Non-GAAP outlook amounts for provision for income taxes, income (loss) from continuing operations, EPS from continuing operations, effective income tax rate and Adjusted EBITDA cannot be reconciled to GAAP without unreasonable effort. We cannot reconcile these amounts to GAAP because we are unable to accurately forecast the tax impact of Venezuela operations and the related exchange rates used to measure those operations. The impact of Venezuela operations and related exchange rates during the remainder of 2016 could be significant to our full-year GAAP provision for income taxes, and, therefore, to income (loss) from continuing operations, EPS from continuing operations, effective income tax rate and Adjusted EBITDA.
The Non-GAAP information is intended to provide information to assist analysts and investors with comparability and estimates of future performance. Brink’s believes these measures are helpful in assessing operations and estimating future results and enable period-to-period comparability of financial performance. In addition, Brink’s believes the measures will help analysts and investors assess the ongoing operations of both our consolidated business and individual segments. Management uses non-GAAP results to evaluate our period-over-period operating performance because our management believes this provides a more comparable measure of our continuing business. Additionally, non-GAAP results are utilized as performance measures in certain management incentive compensation plans.

Non-GAAP results should not be considered as an alternative to revenue, income or earnings per share amounts determined in accordance with GAAP and should be read in conjunction with their GAAP counterparts.

(d)
Non-GAAP income from continuing operations and non-GAAP EPS have been adjusted to reflect an effective income tax rate in each interim period equal to the full-year non-GAAP effective income tax rate. The full-year non-GAAP effective tax rate is estimated at 39.0% for 2016 and was 37.0% for 2015.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $33.8 million in the first nine months of 2016 as compared to the first nine months of 2015.  Cash used for investing activities increased by $5.1 million in the first nine months of 2016 compared to the first nine months of 2015 as a result of an increase in capital expenditures offset by lower marketable security purchase and sale activity during the first nine months of 2016. We financed our liquidity needs in the first nine months of 2016 with cash flows from short-term and long-term debt.

(a)
To adjust for the change in the balance of customer obligations related to cash received and processed in certain of our secure Cash Management Services operations.  The title to this cash transfers to us for a short period of time.  The cash is generally credited to customers’ accounts the following day and we do not consider it as available for general corporate purposes in the management of our liquidity and capital resources.

Non-GAAP cash flows from operating activities is a supplemental financial measure that is not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. The purpose of this Non-GAAP measure is to report financial information excluding cash flows from Venezuela operations, the impact of cash received and processed in certain of our Cash Management Services operations and without cash flows from discontinued operations. We believe this measure is helpful in assessing cash flows from operations, enables period-to-period comparability and is useful in predicting future operating cash flows. This Non-GAAP measure should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated statements of cash flows.

GAAP
Operating cash flows decreased by $33.8 million in the first nine months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.  The decrease was primarily due to increases in cash used for working capital and increases in cash paid for taxes in the first nine months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. The decrease was also attributed to changes in customer obligations related to the secure Cash Management Services operations (cash held for customers decreased by $14.9 million in the first nine months of 2016 compared to an increase of $5.1 million in the same period in 2015) offset by an increase in operating cash provided by Venezuela operations of $12.6 million.

Non-GAAP
Non-GAAP cash flows from operating activities decreased by $28.4 million in the first nine months of 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015.  The decrease was primarily due to increases in cash used for working capital and increases in cash paid for taxes in the first nine months of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.

We continue to focus on maximizing asset utilization which has enabled us to reduce our annual spend to a level more in line with depreciation.  Our reinvestment ratio, which we define as the annual amount of property and equipment acquired during the period divided by

the annual amount of depreciation, was 1.1 for the twelve months ending September 30, 2016 compared to 0.9 for the twelve months ending September 30, 2015.

Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2016 were primarily for armored vehicles, information technology and machinery and equipment.

Debt borrowings and repayments
Cash flows from financing activities increased by $27.0 million in the first nine months of 2016 compared to the first nine months of 2015 as net borrowing on our revolving credit facilities and short-term debt exceeded net repayments of other long-term debt.

Common stock issued
We received $3.0 million in the first nine months of 2016 when our CEO and CFO purchased a combined 100,440 shares of our common stock.

Dividends
We paid dividends to Brink’s shareholders of $0.30 per share or $14.8 million in the first nine months of 2016, similar to the prior year.  Future dividends are dependent on our earnings, financial condition, shareholders’ equity levels, cash flow, business requirements and other factors, as determined by the board of directors.

(a)
Amount as of September 30, 2016 excludes $13.5 million related to cash borrowed under lending arrangements used in the process of managing customer cash supply chains, which is currently classified as restricted cash and not available for general corporate purposes.
(b)
Title to cash received and processed in certain of our secure Cash Management Services operations transfers to us for a short period of time.  The cash is generally credited to customers’ accounts the following day and we do not consider it as available for general corporate purposes in the management of our liquidity and capital resources and in our computation of Net Debt.

Net Debt is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure that is not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP.  We use Net Debt as a measure of our financial leverage.  We believe that investors also may find Net Debt to be helpful in evaluating our financial leverage.  Net Debt should not be considered as an alternative to Debt determined in accordance with GAAP and should be reviewed in conjunction with our consolidated balance sheets.  Set forth above is a reconciliation of Net Debt, a non-GAAP financial measure, to Debt, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP.   Net Debt excluding cash and debt in Venezuelan operations was $303 million at September 30, 2016, and $279 million at December 31, 2015.

Net Debt increased by $24 million primarily to fund capital expenditures during the period.

Liquidity Needs
Our operating liquidity needs are typically financed by cash from operations, short-term debt and the Revolving Facility (our debt facilities are described below). We have certain limitations and considerations related to the cash and borrowing capacity that are reported in our consolidated financial statements.  Based on our current cash on hand, amounts available under our credit facilities and current projections of cash flows from operations, we believe that we will be able to meet our liquidity needs for more than the next twelve months.

Limitations on dividends from foreign subsidiaries.   A significant portion of our operations are outside the U.S. which may make it difficult to repatriate cash for use in the U.S.  See “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our 2015 Form 10-K, for more information on the risks associated with having businesses outside the U.S.

Incremental taxes.  Of the $191.5 million of cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2016, $157.3 million is held by subsidiaries that we consider to be permanently invested and for which we do not expect to repatriate to the U.S.  If we were to decide to repatriate this cash to the U.S., we may have to accrue and pay additional income taxes.  Given the number of foreign operations and the complexities of the tax law, it is not practical to estimate the potential tax liability, but the amount of taxes owed could be material depending on how and when the repatriation were to occur.

Venezuela.  We have $5.8 million of cash and cash equivalents denominated in Venezuelan bolivars (as remeasured at the published DICOM rate of 659 bolivars to the U.S. dollar) at September 30, 2016.  We believe that the DICOM process to convert bolivars (as described in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements) is the only method for which we could receive U.S. dollars that we need to operate our business and to repatriate earnings. The Venezuelan government has restricted conversions of bolivars into U.S. dollars in the past and may do so in the future. We did not repatriate any U.S. dollars from Venezuela in 2015 and have not done so to date in 2016.

Argentina.  At September 30, 2016, we had cash denominated in Argentine pesos of $11.2 million. The government in Argentina had previously imposed limits on the exchange of Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars. As a result, we elected in the past and may continue in the future to repatriate cash from Argentina using markets to convert Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars if U.S. dollars are not readily available. Prior to the December 2015 devaluation of the Argentine peso, we converted Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars at rates less favorable than the rates at which we translated the financial statements of our subsidiary in Argentina. However, after the December 2015 devaluation of the Argentine peso, the market rates used to convert Argentine pesos into U.S. dollars have been similar to the rates at which we translate the financial statements of our subsidiary in Argentina.

Revolving Facility
We have a $525 million unsecured revolving bank credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) that matures in March 2020.  The Revolving Facility’s interest rate is based on LIBOR plus a margin or an alternate base rate plus a margin.  The Revolving Facility allows us to borrow or issue letters of credit (or otherwise satisfy credit needs) on a revolving basis over the term of the facility.  As of September 30, 2016, $331 million was available under the Revolving Facility.  Amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility as of September 30, 2016, were denominated primarily in U.S. dollars and to a lesser extent in euros.

The margin on LIBOR borrowings under the Revolving Facility, which ranges from 1.00% to 1.70% depending on either our credit rating or leverage ratio as defined within the Revolving Facility, was 1.30% at September 30, 2016.  The margin on alternate base rate borrowings under the Revolving Facility ranges from 0.0% to 0.70%.  We also pay an annual facility fee on the Revolving Facility based on either our credit rating or the leverage ratio.  The facility fee, which ranges from 0.125% to 0.30%, was 0.20% at September 30, 2016.

Private Placement Notes
We have principal of $86 million in unsecured notes issued through a 2011 private placement debt transaction (the “Notes”).  At September 30, 2016, the Notes were comprised of $36 million in series A notes with a fixed interest rate of 4.57% and $50 million in series B notes with a fixed interest rate of 5.20%.  Annual principal payments under the series A notes began in January 2015 and continue through maturity.  The series B notes are due in January 2021.

Term Loan
We entered into a $75 million unsecured term loan in March 2015. Interest on this loan is based on LIBOR plus a margin of 1.75%. The loan is due in March 2022. As of September 30, 2016, the principal amount outstanding was $67 million.

Other Facilities
As of September 30, 2016, we had two unsecured multi-currency revolving bank credit facilities totaling $21 million, of which $12 million was available at September 30, 2016.  In August 2016, we amended our previous $20 million facility, reducing the principal amount available to $1 million. This $1 million facility expires in February 2017 and a $20 million facility expires in March 2019.   Interest on these facilities is based on LIBOR plus a margin.  The margin ranges from 1.0% to 2.0%.  We also have the ability to borrow from other banks, at the banks’ discretion, under short-term uncommitted agreements.  Various foreign subsidiaries maintain other lines of credit and overdraft facilities with a number of banks.

We have a $40 million uncommitted letter of credit facility that expires in May 2017. As of September 30, 2016, $5 million was utilized.

In February 2016, we entered into a $24 million uncommitted credit facility that expires in February 2017. As of September 30, 2016, $24 million was outstanding and included in short-term borrowings.

We have two unsecured letter of credit facilities totaling $94 million, of which $28 million was available at September 30, 2016.  A $40 million facility expires in December 2018 and a $54 million facility expires in December 2019.  The Revolving Facility and the multi-currency revolving credit facilities are also used for issuance of letters of credit and bank guarantees.

The Revolving Facility, the Notes, the unsecured multi-currency revolving bank credit facilities, the letter of credit facilities, the uncommitted credit facility and the unsecured term loan contain certain subsidiary guarantees and various financial and other covenants. The financial covenants, among other things, limit our total indebtedness, restrict certain payments to shareholders, limit priority debt, limit asset sales, limit the use of proceeds from asset sales, provide for a maximum leverage ratio and provide for minimum coverage of interest costs. The credit agreements do not provide for the acceleration of payments should our credit rating be reduced. If we were not to comply with the terms of our various credit agreements, the repayment terms could be accelerated and the commitments could be withdrawn. An acceleration

46



of the repayment terms under one agreement could trigger the acceleration of the repayment terms under the other loan agreements.  We were in compliance with all financial covenants at September 30, 2016.

Equity
At September 30, 2016, we had 100 million shares of common stock authorized and 49.9 million shares issued and outstanding.

U.S. Pension Plans
Pension benefits provided to eligible U.S. employees were frozen on December 31, 2005, and are not provided to employees hired after 2005 or to those covered by a collective bargaining agreement.  We did not make cash contributions to the primary U.S. pension plan in 2015 or the first nine months of 2016.  There are approximately 15,000 beneficiaries in the plans.

Based on current assumptions, we do not expect to make any additional contributions until 2020.

UMWA Plans
Retirement benefits related to former coal operations include medical benefits provided by the Pittston Coal Group Companies Employee Benefit Plan for UMWA Represented Employees.  There are approximately 3,700 beneficiaries in the UMWA plans.  The company does not expect to make additional contributions to these plans until 2027 based on actuarial assumptions.

Black Lung
Under the Federal Black Lung Benefits Act of 1972, Brink’s is responsible for paying lifetime black lung benefits to miners and their dependents for claims filed and approved after June 30, 1973.  There are approximately 700 black lung beneficiaries.

Other
We have a plan that provides retirement healthcare benefits to certain eligible salaried employees.  Benefits under this plan are not indexed for inflation.

Assumptions for U.S. Retirement Obligations
We have made various assumptions to estimate the amount of payments to be made in the future.  The most significant assumptions include:
Discount rates and other assumptions in effect at measurement dates (normally December 31)
Investment returns of plan assets
Addition of new participants (historically immaterial due to freezing of pension benefits and exit from coal business)
Mortality rates
Change in laws

The assumptions used to estimate our U.S. retirement obligations can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We serve customers in more than 100 countries, including 41 countries where we operate subsidiaries.  These operations expose us to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.  In addition, we consume various commodities in the normal course of business, exposing us to the effects of changes in the prices of such commodities. These financial and commodity exposures are monitored and managed by us as an integral part of our overall risk management program.  Our risk management program seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of certain markets may have on our operating results. We have not had any material change in our market risk exposures in the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who is our principal executive officer, and Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), who is our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based upon that evaluation, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us 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 SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
