NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Cummins Inc. (“Cummins,” “we,” “our” or “us”) was founded in 1919 as a corporation in Columbus, Indiana, as one of the first diesel engine manufacturers. We are a global power leader that designs, manufactures, distributes and services diesel and natural gas engines and engine-related component products, including filtration, aftertreatment, turbochargers, fuel systems, controls systems, air handling systems and electric power generation systems. We sell our products to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), distributors and other customers worldwide. We serve our customers through a network of approximately 600 company-owned and independent distributor locations and approximately 6,500 dealer locations in more than 190 countries and territories.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the presentation of the current period condensed financial statements.

Our reporting period usually ends on the Sunday closest to the last day of the quarterly calendar period. The third quarters of 2013 and 2012 ended on September 29 and September 30, respectively. The interim periods for both 2013 and 2012 contained 13 weeks, while the nine month periods both contained 39 weeks. Our fiscal year ends on December 31, regardless of the day of the week on which December 31 falls.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements . Significant estimates and assumptions in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements require the exercise of judgment and are used for, but not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, estimates of future cash flows and other assumptions associated with goodwill and long-lived asset impairment tests, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, warranty programs, determination of discount and other rate assumptions for pension and other postretirement benefit expenses, income taxes and deferred tax valuation allowances, lease classifications and contingencies. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be different from these estimates.

The weighted-average diluted common shares outstanding exclude the anti-dilutive effect of certain stock options since such options had an exercise price in excess of the monthly average market value of our common stock. The options excluded from diluted earnings per share for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2013 and September 30, 2012 , were as follows:



	Three months ended		Nine months ended
	September 29, 2013	September 30, 2012	September 29, 2013	September 30, 2012
Options excluded	184,775	599,637	479,276	412,318

You should read these interim condensed financial statements in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 . Our interim period financial results for the three and nine month interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year. The year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP.

NOTE 3. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Cummins Rocky Mountain LLC

In May 2013, we acquired the remaining 67 percent interest in Cummins Rocky Mountain LLC (Rocky Mountain) from the former principal for consideration of approximately $62 million in cash and an additional $74 million in cash paid to creditors to eliminate all debt related to the entity. The purchase price was approximately $136 million as presented below. The intangible assets are primarily customer related and are being amortized over periods ranging from one to four years. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, with the results of the acquired entity included in the Distribution operating segment in the second quarter of 2013.

Distribution segment results also included a $5 million gain, as we were required to re-measure our pre-existing 33 percent ownership interest in Rocky Mountain to fair value in accordance with GAAP. Net sales for Rocky Mountain were $384 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2012. This amount is not fully incremental to Cummins Inc. as the amount would be reduced by the elimination of sales to the previously unconsolidated entity. Approximately $11 million of the $14 million deferred purchase price was distributed in the third quarter of 2013. The remaining balance is expected to be paid in future quarters.

The updated purchase price allocation at September 29, 2013, was as follows:

Cummins Northwest LLC

In January 2013, we acquired an additional 50 percent interest in Cummins Northwest LLC (Northwest) from the former principal for consideration of approximately $18 million . We formed a new partnership with a new distributor principal. We owned 79.99 percent of Northwest and the new distributor principal owned 20.01 percent . The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, with the results of the acquired entity included in the Distribution segment in the first quarter of 2013. Distribution segment results also included a $7 million gain, as we were required to re-measure our pre-existing 50 percent ownership interest in Northwest to fair value in accordance with GAAP. The transaction generated $3 million of goodwill. Net sales for Northwest were $137 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2012. This amount is not fully incremental to Cummins Inc. as the amount would be reduced by the elimination of sales to the previously unconsolidated entity.

In July 2013, we acquired the remaining 20.01 percent from the former distributor principal for an additional $4 million . Since the entity was already consolidated, this was accounted for as an equity transaction.

Hilite Germany GmbH

In July 2012, we purchased the doser technology and business assets from Hilite Germany GmbH (Hilite) in a cash transaction. Dosers are products that enable compliance with emission standards in certain aftertreatment systems and complement our current product offerings. The purchase price was $176 million and is summarized below. There was no contingent consideration associated with this transaction. During the first nine months of 2012, we expensed approximately $4 million of acquisition related costs.

Table of Contents

The acquisition of Hilite was accounted for as a business combination, with the results of the acquired entity and the goodwill included in the Components segment in the third quarter of 2012. The majority of the purchase price was allocated to technology and customer related intangible assets and goodwill, most of which was fully deductible for tax purposes. We expect the Hilite acquisition to strengthen our aftertreatment product offerings. This acquisition enhances our technical capabilities and keeps us in a strong position to meet the needs of current customers and grow into new markets, especially as an increasing number of regions around the world adopt tougher emission standards.

Intangible assets by asset class, including weighted average amortization life, were as follows:

Cummins Central Power

In July 2012, we acquired an additional 45 percent interest in Cummins Central Power from the former principal for consideration of approximately $20 million . The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, with the results of the acquired entity included in the Distribution segment in the third quarter of 2012. Distribution segment results also included a $7 million gain, as we were required to re-measure our pre-existing 35 percent ownership interest in Cummins Central Power to fair value in accordance with GAAP. Net sales for Cummins Central Power were $209 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011. This amount is not fully incremental to Cummins Inc. as the amount would be reduced by the elimination of sales to the previously unconsolidated entity.

Divestitures

In the second quarter of 2012, we recorded an additional $6 million gain ( $4 million after-tax) related to final purchase price adjustments for our 2011 divestitures. The gain was excluded from segment results as it was not considered in our evaluation of operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

NOTE 4. PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

We sponsor funded and unfunded domestic and foreign defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. Contributions to these plans were as follows:

We made $161 million of pension contributions in the nine months ended September 29, 2013 and we anticipate making an additional $9 million of contributions during the remainder of 2013 . We paid $37 million of claims and premiums for other postretirement benefits in the nine months ended September 29, 2013 ; payments for the remainder of 2013 are expected to be $10 million . The $170 million of pension contributions for the full year include voluntary contributions of approximately $115 million . These contributions and payments may be made from trusts or company funds either to increase pension assets or to make direct benefit payments to plan participants. Our expected pension expense for 2013 was reduced by $10 million , to $87 million , from the amount we had expected at December 31, 2012, due to a remeasurement of the U.S. plan for changes in employee census data in the first quarter of 2013.

NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES

Our effective tax rate for the year is expected to approximate 28.5 percent , excluding any one-time items that may arise. Our tax rate is generally less than the 35 percent U.S. statutory income tax rate primarily due to lower tax rates on foreign income and research tax credits. The tax rates for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2013 , were 29.2 percent and 28.3 percent , respectively. These tax rates include a $7 million discrete net tax expense for the third quarter tax adjustments: $4 million expense attributable to prior year tax return true-up adjustments, $1 million benefit related to release of prior year tax reserves and a discrete tax charge for $4 million related to a third quarter enactment of U.K. tax law changes. In addition, the nine month tax rate includes a discrete tax benefit in the first quarter of 2013 of $28 million attributable to the reinstatement of the research credit back to 2012, as well as a discrete tax expense in the first quarter of 2013 of $17 million , which primarily relates to the write-off of a deferred tax asset deemed unrecoverable. On January 2, 2013, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 was signed into law and reinstated the research tax credit. As tax law changes are accounted for in the period of enactment, we recognized the discrete tax benefit in the first quarter of 2013.

Our tax rates for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012 , were 24.1 percent and 25.5 percent , respectively. These tax rates include a $16 million tax benefit for third quarter discrete tax adjustments, $6 million of which related to a dividend distribution of accumulated foreign income earned in prior years. These discrete tax adjustments also included a discrete tax benefit of $13 million for prior year tax return true-up adjustments and a discrete tax charge of $3 million related to the third quarter enactment of U.K. tax law changes. The increase in the 2013 effective tax rates compared to 2012 is primarily due to unfavorable changes in the pre-tax mix of income taxed in higher rate jurisdictions and discrete tax items.

In September 2013, the Internal Revenue Service released final tangible personal property regulations regarding the deduction and capitalization of expenditures related to tangible property. The new rules will become effective for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2014. While we are still finalizing our analysis, we do not believe that these regulations will have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements .

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The majority of the assets and liabilities we carry at fair value are available-for-sale (AFS) securities and derivatives. AFS securities are derived from Level 1 or Level 2 inputs. Derivative assets and liabilities are derived from Level 2 inputs. The predominance of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including brokers, market transactions and third-party pricing services. When material, we adjust the values of our derivative contracts for counter-party or our credit risk. There were no transfers into or out of Levels 2 or 3 in the first nine months of 2013 and 2012 .

The substantial majority of our assets were valued utilizing a market approach. A description of the valuation techniques and inputs used for our level 2 fair value measures was as follows:


•	Debt mutual funds — Assets in Level 2 consist of exchange traded mutual funds that lack sufficient trading volume to be classified at Level 1. The fair value measure for these investments is the daily net asset value published on a regulated governmental website. Daily quoted prices are available from the issuing brokerage and are used on a test basis to corroborate this Level 2 input.

•

Bank debentures and Certificates of deposit — These investments provide us with a fixed rate of return and generally range in maturity from six months to five years . The counter-parties to these investments are reputable financial institutions with investment grade credit ratings. Since these instruments are not tradable and must be settled directly by us with the respective financial institution, our fair value measure is the financial institutions’ month-end statement.


•	Government debt securities-non-U.S. and Corporate debt securities — The fair value measure for these securities are broker quotes received from reputable firms. These securities are infrequently traded on a national stock exchange and these values are used on a test basis to corroborate our Level 2 input measure.


•	Foreign currency forward contracts — The fair value measure for these contracts are determined based on forward foreign exchange rates received from third-party pricing services. These rates are based upon market transactions and are periodically corroborated by comparing to third-party broker quotes.


•	Commodity swap contracts — The fair value measure for these contracts are current spot market data adjusted for the appropriate current forward curves provided by external financial institutions. The current spot price is the most

Table of Contents

significant component of this valuation and is based upon market transactions. We use third-party pricing services for the spot price component of this valuation which is periodically corroborated by market data from broker quotes.


•	Commodity call and put option contracts — We utilize the month-end statement from the issuing financial institution as our fair value measure for this investment. We corroborate this valuation through the use of a third-party pricing service for similar assets and liabilities.


•	Interest rate contracts — We currently have only one interest rate contract. We utilize the month-end statement from the issuing financial institution as our fair value measure for this investment. We corroborate this valuation through the use of a third-party pricing service for similar assets and liabilities.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

Based on borrowing rates currently available to us for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities, considering our risk premium, the fair value and carrying value of total debt, including current maturities, at September 29, 2013 and December 31, 2012, are set forth in the table below. The carrying values of all other receivables and liabilities approximated fair values. The fair value of financial instruments is derived from Level 2 inputs.

NOTE 10. DEBT

As a well-known seasoned issuer, we filed an automatic shelf registration for an undetermined amount of debt and equity securities with the SEC on September 16, 2013. Under this shelf registration we may offer, from time to time, debt securities, common stock, preferred and preference stock, depositary shares, warrants, stock purchase contracts and stock purchase units.

In September 2013, we issued $1 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes consisting of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.65% senior unsecured notes due in 2023 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875% senior unsecured notes due in 2043. We received net proceeds of $979 million . The senior notes pay interest semi-annually on April 1 and October 1, commencing on April 1, 2014. The indenture governing the senior notes contains covenants that, among other matters, limit (i) our ability to consolidate or merge into, or sell, assign, convey, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our and our subsidiaries' assets to another person, (ii) our and certain of our subsidiaries' ability to create or assume liens and (iii) our and certain of our subsidiaries' ability to engage in sale and leaseback transactions.

NOTE 11. PRODUCT WARRANTY LIABILITY

We charge the estimated costs of warranty programs, other than product recalls, to income at the time products are shipped to customers. We use historical claims experience to develop the estimated liability. We review product recall programs on a quarterly basis and, if necessary, record a liability when we commit to an action, or when they become probable and estimable, which is reflected in the provision for warranties issued line. We also sell extended warranty coverage on several engines. The following is a tabular reconciliation of the product warranty liability, including the deferred revenue related to our extended warranty coverage and accrued recall programs:

NOTE 12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We are subject to numerous lawsuits and claims arising out of the ordinary course of our business, including actions related to product liability; personal injury; the use and performance of our products; warranty matters; patent, trademark or other intellectual property infringement; contractual liability; the conduct of our business; tax reporting in foreign jurisdictions; distributor termination; workplace safety; and environmental matters. We also have been identified as a potentially responsible party at multiple waste disposal sites under U.S. federal and related state environmental statutes and regulations and may have joint and several liability for any investigation and remediation costs incurred with respect to such sites. We have denied liability with respect to many of these lawsuits, claims and proceedings and are vigorously defending such lawsuits, claims and proceedings. We carry various forms of commercial, property and casualty, product liability and other forms of insurance; however, such insurance may not be applicable or adequate to cover the costs associated with a judgment against us with respect to these lawsuits, claims and proceedings. We do not believe that these lawsuits are material individually or in the aggregate. While we believe we have also established adequate accruals for our expected future liability with respect to pending lawsuits, claims and proceedings, where the nature and extent of any such liability can be reasonably estimated based upon then presently available information, there can be no assurance that the final resolution of any existing or future lawsuits, claims or proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

We conduct significant business operations in Brazil that are subject to the Brazilian federal, state and local labor, social security, tax and customs laws. While we believe we comply with such laws, they are complex, subject to varying interpretations and we are often engaged in litigation regarding the application of these laws to particular circumstances.

U.S. Distributor Commitments

Our distribution agreements with independent and partially-owned distributors generally have a renewable three -year term and are restricted to specified territories. Our distributors develop and maintain a network of dealers with which we have no direct relationship. Our distributors are permitted to sell other, noncompetitive products only with our consent. We license all of our distributors to use our name and logo in connection with the sale and service of our products, with no right to assign or sublicense the trademarks, except to authorized dealers, without our consent. Products are sold to the distributors at standard domestic or international distributor net prices, as applicable. Net prices are wholesale prices we establish to permit our distributors an adequate margin on their sales. Subject to local laws, we can generally refuse to renew these agreements upon expiration or terminate them upon written notice for inadequate sales, change in principal ownership and certain other reasons. Distributors also have the right to terminate the agreements upon 60 -day notice without cause, or 30 -day notice for cause. Upon termination or failure to renew, we are required to purchase the distributor’s current inventory, signage and special tools and may, at our option purchase other assets of the distributor, but are under no obligation to do so.

Other Guarantees and Commitments

In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time we periodically enter into other guarantee arrangements, including guarantees of non-U.S. distributor financing, residual value guarantees on equipment under operating leases and other miscellaneous guarantees of third-party obligations. As of September 29, 2013, the maximum potential loss related to these other guarantees was $8 million. The amount of liabilities related to the guarantees was less than $1 million .

We have arrangements with certain suppliers that require us to purchase minimum volumes or be subject to monetary penalties. The penalty amounts are less than our purchase commitments and essentially allow the supplier to recover their tooling costs in most instances. As of September 29, 2013, if we were to stop purchasing from each of these suppliers, the aggregate amount of the penalty would be approximately $109 million , of which $67 million relates to a contract with an engine parts supplier that extends to 2016. These arrangements enable us to secure critical components. We do not currently anticipate paying any penalties under these contracts.

We have guarantees with certain customers that require us to satisfactorily honor contractual or regulatory obligations, or compensate for monetary losses related to nonperformance. These performance bonds and other performance-related guarantees were $66 million at September 29, 2013 and $70 million at December 31, 2012 .

Indemnifications

Periodically, we enter into various contractual arrangements where we agree to indemnify a third-party against certain types of losses. Common types of indemnities include:


•	product liability and license, patent or trademark indemnifications.


•	asset sale agreements where we agree to indemnify the purchaser against future environmental exposures related to the asset sold and


•	any contractual agreement where we agree to indemnify the counter-party for losses suffered as a result of a misrepresentation in the contract.

We regularly evaluate the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnities and accrue for expected losses that are probable. Because the indemnifications are not related to specified known liabilities and due to their uncertain nature, we are unable to estimate the maximum amount of the potential loss associated with these indemnifications.

Joint Venture Commitments

As of September 29, 2013, we have committed to invest an additional $59 million into existing joint ventures, of which $11 million is expected to be funded in 2013.

NOTE 13. DERIVATIVES

We are exposed to financial risk resulting from volatility in foreign exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. This risk is closely monitored and managed through the use of financial derivative instruments including foreign currency forward contracts, commodity swap contracts, commodity zero-cost collars and interest rate swaps. As stated in our policies and procedures, financial derivatives are used expressly for hedging purposes and under no circumstances are they used for speculative purposes. When material, we adjust the value of our derivative contracts for counter-party or our credit risk. None of our derivative instruments are subject to collateral requirements. Substantially all of our derivative contracts are subject to master netting arrangements which provide us with the option to settle certain contracts on a net basis when they settle on the same day with the same currency. In addition, these arrangements provide for a net settlement of all contracts with a given counterparty in the event that the arrangement is terminated due to the occurrence of default or a termination event.

Foreign Exchange Rates

As a result of our international business presence, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange risks. We transact business in foreign currencies and, as a result, our income experiences some volatility related to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. To help manage our exposure to exchange rate volatility, we use foreign currency forward contracts on a regular basis to hedge forecasted intercompany and third-party sales and purchases denominated in non-functional currencies. Our internal policy allows for managing anticipated foreign currency cash flows for up to one year . These foreign currency forward contracts are designated and qualify as foreign currency cash flow hedges under GAAP. The effective portion of the unrealized gain or loss on the forward contract is deferred and reported as a component of “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” (AOCL). When the hedged forecasted transaction (sale or purchase) occurs, the unrealized gain or loss is reclassified into income in the same line item associated with the hedged transaction in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects income. The ineffective portion of the hedge, if any, is recognized in current income during the period of change. As of September 29, 2013, the amount we expect to reclassify from AOCL to income over the next year is an unrealized net gain of $2 million . For the nine month periods ended September 29, 2013 and September 30, 2012, there were no circumstances that would have resulted in the discontinuance of a foreign currency cash flow hedge.

To minimize the income volatility resulting from the remeasurement of net monetary assets and payables denominated in a currency other than the functional currency, we enter into foreign currency forward contracts, which are considered economic hedges. The objective is to offset the gain or loss from remeasurement with the gain or loss from the fair market valuation of the forward contract. These derivative instruments are not designated as hedges under GAAP.

The table below summarizes our outstanding foreign currency forward contracts. Only the U.S. dollar forward contracts are designated and qualify for hedge accounting as of each period presented below. The currencies in this table represent 93 percent and 95 percent of the notional amounts of contracts outstanding as of September 29, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , respectively.

Commodity Price Risk

We are exposed to fluctuations in commodity prices due to contractual agreements with component suppliers. In order to protect ourselves against future price volatility and, consequently, fluctuations in gross margins, we periodically enter into commodity swap contracts with designated banks to fix the cost of certain raw material purchases with the objective of minimizing changes in inventory cost due to market price fluctuations. Certain commodity swap contracts are derivative contracts that are designated as cash flow hedges under GAAP. We also have commodity swap contracts that represent an economic hedge, but are not designated for hedge accounting and are marked to market through earnings. For those contracts that qualify for hedge accounting, the effective portion of the unrealized gain or loss is deferred and reported as a component of AOCL. When the hedged forecasted transaction (purchase) occurs, the unrealized gain or loss is reclassified into income in the same line item associated with the hedged transaction in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects income. The ineffective portion of the hedge, if any, is recognized in current income in the period in which the ineffectiveness occurs. As of September 29, 2013, we expect to reclassify an unrealized net loss of $3 million from AOCL to income over the next year. Our internal policy allows for managing these cash flow hedges for up to three years .

The following table summarizes our outstanding commodity swap contracts that were entered into to hedge the cost of certain raw material purchases:

In 2012, we began to use a combination of call and put option contracts for copper in net-zero-cost collar arrangements (zero-cost collars) that establish ceiling and floor prices for copper. These contracts are used strictly for hedging and not for speculative purposes. For these zero-cost collars, if the average price of the copper during the calculation period is within the call and put price, the call and put contracts expire at no cost to us. If the price falls below the floor, the counter-party to the collar receives the difference from us and if the price rises above the ceiling, the counter-party pays the difference to us. We believe that these zero-cost collars will act as economic hedges; however we have chosen not to designate them as hedges for accounting purposes, therefore we present the calls and puts on a gross basis on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following table summarizes our outstanding commodity zero-cost collar contracts that were entered into to hedge the cost of copper purchases:

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to market risk from fluctuations in interest rates. We manage our exposure to interest rate fluctuations through the use of interest rate swaps. The objective of the swaps is to more effectively balance our borrowing costs and interest rate risk.

Table of Contents

In November 2005, we entered into an interest rate swap to effectively convert our $250 million debt issue, due in 2028, from a fixed rate of 7.125 percent to a floating rate based on a LIBOR spread. The terms of the swap mirror those of the debt, with interest paid semi-annually. This swap qualifies as a fair value hedge under GAAP. The gain or loss on this derivative instrument as well as the offsetting gain or loss on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in current income as “Interest expense.” The following table summarizes these gains and losses for the three and nine month periods presented below:

NOTE 15. RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

We executed restructuring actions primarily in the form of involuntary separation programs in the fourth quarter of 2012. These actions were in response to reduced demand in our U.S. businesses and most key markets around the world in the second half of 2012, as well as a reduction in orders in most U.S. and global markets for 2013. We reduced our worldwide professional workforce by approximately 650 employees, or 3 percent . We also reduced our hourly workforce by approximately 650 employees. During 2012, we incurred a pre-tax charge related to the professional and hourly workforce reductions of approximately $49 million .

Employee termination and severance costs were recorded based on approved plans developed by the businesses and corporate management which specified positions to be eliminated, benefits to be paid under existing severance plans or statutory requirements and the expected timetable for completion of the plan. Estimates of restructuring were made based on information available at the time charges were recorded.

At September 29, 2013, of the approximately 1,300 employees affected by this plan, substantially all terminations have been completed.

During 2012, we recorded restructuring and other charges of $52 million ( $35 million after-tax). The restructuring related accruals were recorded in “Other accrued expenses” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table summarizes the changes in the balance of accrued restructuring charges:

NOTE 16. OPERATING SEGMENTS

Operating segments under GAAP are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Cummins chief operating decision-maker (CODM) is the Chief Executive Officer.

Our reportable operating segments consist of the following: Engine, Components, Power Generation and Distribution. This reporting structure is organized according to the products and markets each segment serves and allows management to focus its efforts on providing enhanced service to a wide range of customers. The Engine segment produces engines and parts for sale to customers in on-highway and various industrial markets. Our engines are used in trucks of all sizes, buses and recreational vehicles, as well as in various industrial applications, including construction, mining, agriculture, marine, oil and gas, rail and military equipment. The Components segment sells filtration products, aftertreatment systems, turbochargers and fuel systems. The Power Generation segment is an integrated provider of power systems, which sells engines, generator sets and alternators. The Distribution segment includes wholly-owned and partially-owned distributorships engaged in wholesaling engines, generator sets and service parts, as well as performing service and repair activities on our products and maintaining relationships with various OEMs throughout the world.

We use segment EBIT (defined as earnings before interest expense, taxes and noncontrolling interests) as a primary basis for the CODM to evaluate the performance of each of our operating segments. Segment amounts exclude certain expenses not specifically identifiable to segments.

The accounting policies of our operating segments are the same as those applied in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We prepared the financial results of our operating segments on a basis that is consistent with the manner in which we internally disaggregate financial information to assist in making internal operating decisions. We have allocated certain common costs and expenses, primarily corporate functions, among segments differently than we would for stand-alone financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. These include certain costs and expenses of shared services, such as information technology, human resources, legal and finance. We also do not allocate debt-related items, actuarial gains or losses, prior service costs or credits, changes in cash surrender value of corporate owned life insurance, divestiture gains or losses or income taxes to individual segments. Segment EBIT may not be consistent with measures used by other companies.

Summarized financial information regarding our reportable operating segments for the three and nine month periods is shown in the table below:

The three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, included a $6 million gain ( $4 million after-tax) related to adjustments from our 2011 divestitures. The gain has been excluded from segment results as it was not considered in our evaluation of operating results for the corresponding periods. There were no other significant unallocated corporate expenses for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2013 and September 30, 2012 .

⁽²⁾ Depreciation and amortization as shown on a segment basis excludes the amortization of debt discount that is included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as "Interest expense."

⁽³⁾ Distribution segment EBIT for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , included a $7 million gain and $5 million gain on the fair value adjustment resulting from the acquisitions of a controlling interest in Northwest and Rocky Mountain, respectively. Distribution segment EBIT for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 , included a $7 million gain on the fair value adjustment resulting from the acquisition of a controlling interest in Cummins Central Power.

NOTE 17. RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) amended its standards on comprehensive income by requiring disclosure in the footnotes of information about amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. Specifically, the amendment requires disclosure of the line items on net income in which the item was reclassified only if it is reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. It also requires cross reference to other disclosures for amounts that are not reclassified in their entirety in the same reporting period. The new rules became effective for us beginning January 1, 2013 and were adopted prospectively in accordance with the standard. The standard resulted in new disclosures in NOTE 14, "OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)."

In December 2011, the FASB amended its standards related to offsetting assets and liabilities. This amendment requires entities to disclose both gross and net information about certain instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and certain instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting agreement. This information enables users of the financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on our financial position. The new rules became effective on January 1, 2013. In January 2013, the FASB further amended this standard to limit its scope to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, securities borrowings and lending transactions. This standard resulted in new disclosures in NOTE 13, "DERIVATIVES."

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

We are a global power leader that designs, manufactures, distributes and services diesel and natural gas engines and engine-related component products, including filtration, aftertreatment, turbochargers, fuel systems, controls systems, air handling systems and electric power generation systems. We sell our products to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), distributors and other customers worldwide. We have long-standing relationships with many of the leading manufacturers in the markets we serve, including PACCAR Inc, Daimler Trucks North America, Chrysler Group, LLC, Volvo AB, Komatsu, Navistar International Corporation, Aggreko plc, Ford Motor Company and MAN Nutzfahrzeuge AG. We serve our customers through a network of approximately 600 company-owned and independent distributor locations and approximately 6,500 dealer locations in more than 190 countries and territories.

Our financial performance depends, in large part, on varying conditions in the markets we serve, particularly the on-highway, construction and general industrial markets. Demand in these markets tends to fluctuate in response to overall economic conditions. Our sales may also be impacted by OEM inventory levels and production schedules and stoppages. Economic downturns in markets we serve generally result in reductions in sales and pricing of our products. As a worldwide business, our operations are also affected by currency, political, economic and regulatory matters, including adoption and enforcement of environmental and emission standards, in the countries we serve. As part of our growth strategy, we invest in businesses in certain countries that carry high levels of these risks such as China, Brazil, India, Mexico, Russia and countries in the Middle East and Africa. At the same time, our geographic diversity and broad product and service offerings have helped limit the impact from a drop in demand in any one industry or customer or the economy of any single country on our consolidated results.

Worldwide revenues increased 4 percent in the three months ended September 29, 2013, as compared to the same period in 2012 , despite continued global economic uncertainty. Revenue in the U.S. and Canada improved by 11 percent driven by improved Distribution segment sales related to the consolidation of two partially-owned North American distributors since June of 2012 and an increase in Components segment sales driven by improved demand in the North American on-highway market. These increases were mostly offset by the reduced demand in the on-highway light-duty automotive and medium-duty bus markets as well as the off-highway construction and mining markets with reduced unit shipments of 23 percent, 1 percent, 31 percent and 9 percent, respectively, compared to the same period last year. International (excludes the United States and Canada) revenues declined by 4 percent primarily due to global economic uncertainty with sales down or relatively flat in most international markets. Declines were led by the off-highway mining market with reduced unit shipments of 43 percent, partially offset by growth in the medium-duty Brazilian truck market resulting in improved engine and component demand.

Worldwide revenues declined 3 percent in the first nine months of 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012 , as global economic uncertainty continued during the period. International revenues declined by 6 percent primarily due to global economic uncertainty with sales down or relatively flat in most international markets. Declines were led by the off-highway mining market with reduced unit shipments of 39 percent, partially offset by growth in the medium-duty Brazilian truck market resulting in improved engine and component demand. Revenue in the U.S. and Canada improved by 1 percent driven by improved Distribution segment sales related to the consolidation of two partially-owned North American distributors since June of 2012 and an increase in Components segment sales driven by the acquisition of the doser technology from Hilite Germany GmbH (Hilite) in the third quarter of 2012. These increases were mostly offset by the reduced demand in the on-highway heavy-duty truck and medium-duty bus markets as well as the off-highway oil and gas and mining markets with reduced unit shipments of 19 percent, 21 percent, 41 percent and 28 percent, respectively, compared to the same period last year.

The European economy remains uncertain, however volatility in the Euro zone countries stabilized somewhat in the third quarter of 2013. Although we do not have any significant direct exposure to European sovereign debt, we generated approximately 8 percent of our net sales from Euro zone countries in 2012 and approximately 8 percent in the first nine months of 2013 .

Net income attributable to Cummins was $355 million , or $1.90 per diluted share , on sales of $4.3 billion for the three month interim reporting period ended September 29, 2013 , versus the comparable prior year period with net income attributable to Cummins of $352 million , or $1.86 per diluted share, on sales of $4.1 billion . The increase in income and earnings per share was driven by improved gross margin as a percentage of sales, partially offset by a higher effective tax rate of 29.2 percent versus 24.1 percent in the comparable prior year period and higher selling, general and administrative expenses. The improved gross margin was the result of favorable price realization, lower material and commodity costs and higher volumes, partially offset by unfavorable product mix.

Net income attributable to Cummins was $1,051 million , or $5.60 per diluted share , on sales of $12.7 billion for the nine month interim reporting period ended September 29, 2013 , versus the comparable prior year period with net income attributable to Cummins of $1,276 million , or $6.72 per diluted share , on sales of $13.0 billion . The decrease in income was driven by lower gross margin as a percentage of sales, a higher effective tax rate of 28.3 percent versus 25.5 percent in the comparable prior year period and lower equity, royalty and interest income from investees. The decrease in gross margin was due to unfavorable product mix and lower volumes, partially offset by favorable price realization and lower material and commodity costs.

Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 29, 2013, benefited $0.04 from lower shares outstanding, primarily due to purchases under the stock repurchase program.

We generated $1,333 million of operating cash flows for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , compared to $787 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 . Refer to the section titled “Operating Activities” in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section for a discussion of items impacting cash flows.

Table of Contents

In the second quarter of 2013, we repurchased the remaining $226 million of common stock under the February 2011, $1 billion Board of Directors authorization, completing the program. In December 2012, the Board of Directors authorized the acquisition of up to $1 billion of additional common stock upon completion of the 2011 repurchase plan. We repurchased $63 million under this new plan during 2013.

On September 16, 2013, we filed an automatic shelf registration for an undetermined amount of debt and equity securities. On September 19, 2013, we issued $1 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes consisting of $500 million of 3.65% senior unsecured notes due in 2023 and $500 million of 4.875% senior unsecured notes due in 2043. Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, Fitch Ratings and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. confirmed our credit ratings as 'A', 'A' and 'A3', respectively, subsequent to the third quarter issuance of $1 billion in senior notes.

Our debt to capital ratio (total capital defined as debt plus equity) at September 29, 2013 , was 19.4 percent , compared to 10.0 percent at December 31, 2012 . In addition to the $2.7 billion in cash and marketable securities on hand, we also have access to our credit facilities, if necessary, to meet currently anticipated investment and funding needs.

In July 2013, the Board of Directors authorized a dividend increase of 25 percent from $0.50 per share to $0.625 per share on a quarterly basis.

Our global pension plans, including our unfunded and non-qualified plans, were 98 percent funded at December 31, 2012. Our U.S. qualified plan, which represents approximately 60 percent of the worldwide pension obligation, was 106 percent funded and our United Kingdom (U.K.) plan was 104 percent funded. We expect to contribute $170 million to our global pension plans in 2013.

OUTLOOK

Near-Term

In the third quarter of 2013 , demand continued to improve in several end markets in North America compared to the same period in the prior year, led by increased demand in our emission solutions business and market share gains in the North American medium-duty truck market. Demand remained weak in most international markets due to lower demand for power generation equipment and engines for mining applications.

We currently expect the following positive trends for the remainder of 2013 :


•	Our market share gains in the North American medium-duty truck market are expected to continue through the remainder of the year and should positively impact sales in both the Engine segment and Components businesses.


•	Demand in our North American on-highway markets is expected to remain steady.

We currently expect the following challenges to our business that may reduce our earnings potential for the remainder of 2013 :


•	Demand for engines for mining applications will remain weak.


•	Demand in most end markets in India is expected to remain weak.


•	Demand for power generation equipment in our international markets is expected to remain weak.


•	Demand in certain European markets could continue to remain sluggish due to economic uncertainty.


•	Currency volatility could put pressure on earnings.

Table of Contents

Long-Term

We believe that, over the longer term, there will be economic improvements in most of our current markets and that our opportunities for long-term profitable growth will continue in the future as the result of the following four macroeconomic trends that should benefit our businesses:


•	tightening emissions standards across the world;


•	infrastructure needs in emerging markets;


•	energy availability and cost issues and


•	globalization of industries like ours.

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended September 29, 2013 , increased slightly versus the comparable period in 2012 , primarily due to the impacts from the acquisitions of two partially-owned North American distributors, Cummins Northwest LLC (Northwest) in the first quarter of 2013 and Cummins Rocky Mountain LLC (Rocky Mountain) in the second quarter of 2013. The primary drivers by segment were as follows:


•	Distribution segment sales increase d by 18 percent primarily due to the acquisitions of two North American distributors.


•	Components segment sales increase d by 14 percent due to improved demand in the North American on-highway markets and the impact from the 2012 acquisition of Hilite.

These increases were partially offset by the following:


•	Engine segment sales decrease d by 1 percent due to lower demand in power generation markets and industrial markets, primarily in global mining and North American construction markets, partially offset by increased demand in

Table of Contents

the North American, European and Brazilian medium-duty truck markets and the North American heavy-duty truck markets.


•	Power Generation segment sales decrease d by 13 percent across all business, mainly due to lower volumes within the power systems and the power solutions businesses.


•	Foreign currency fluctuations unfavorably impacted sales.

Net sales for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , decrease d versus the comparable period in 2012 . The decrease in sales by segment was primarily driven by the following:


•	Engine segment sales decrease d by 9 percent due to weakness in industrial demand, especially in global mining and North American oil and gas markets, weaker demand in the North American heavy-duty truck market and lower demand in power generation markets.


•	Power Generation segment sales decrease d by 9 percent due to lower demand in the power solutions business, primarily in the U.K., and lower demand in the power systems and the generator technologies businesses, which were partially offset by improvements in the North American power products business.

These decrease s were partially offset by the following:


•	Distribution segment sales increased 13 percent primarily due to the acquisitions of two North American distributors.


•	Components segment sales increase d by 4 percent due to sales related to the 2012 acquisition of Hilite and improved demand in the emissions solutions business, as the result of increased on-highway OEM and aftermarket demand in North America and higher demand in Brazil and Russia.

A more detailed discussion of sales by segment is presented in the “OPERATING SEGMENT RESULTS” section.

Sales to international markets, based on location of customers, for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2013 , were 46 percent and 48 percent , respectively, of total net sales compared with 50 percent of total net sales for both of the comparable periods in 2012 .

Gross Margin

Gross margin increased for the three months ended September 29, 2013 , versus the comparable period in 2012 , and increased as a percentage of sales by 0.7 percentage points as improved price realization, lower material and commodity costs and higher volumes were partially offset by unfavorable product mix. Gross margin decreased for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , versus the comparable period in 2012 , and decreased as a percentage of sales by 1.2 percentage points as unfavorable product mix and lower volumes were partially offset by improved price realization and lower material and commodity costs.

The provision for warranties issued as a percent of sales for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2013 , were 2.0 percent and 2.2 percent , respectively, compared to 2.0 percent and 2.3 percent for the comparable periods in 2012 . A more detailed discussion of margin by segment is presented in the “OPERATING SEGMENT RESULTS” section.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended September 29, 2013 , increased versus the comparable period in 2012 , primarily due to increased compensation and related expenses of $18 million and higher consulting of $6 million. Compensation and related expenses include salaries, fringe benefits and variable compensation.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine month period ended September 29, 2013 , increased versus the comparable period in 2012 , primarily due to increased compensation and related expenses of $46 million, partially offset by lower consulting of $22 million, reduced discretionary spending and lower variable compensation.

Table of Contents

Research, Development and Engineering Expenses

Research, development and engineering expenses for the three and nine month periods ended September 29, 2013 , decreased versus the comparable periods in 2012 , primarily due to a decreased number of engineering programs of $18 million and $23 million, respectively and decreased consulting of $10 million and $23 million, respectively, partially offset by increases of $12 million and $41 million, respectively, in compensation related expenses. Compensation and related expenses include salaries, fringe benefits and variable compensation. Research activities continue to focus on development of new products to meet future emission standards around the world and improvements in fuel economy performance.

Equity, Royalty and Interest Income From Investees

Equity, royalty and interest income from investees decrease d for the three months ended September 29, 2013 , versus the comparable period in 2012 . Equity, royalty and interest income from investees decrease d for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , versus the comparable period in 2012 . The primarily drivers were as follows:

The overall decrease for the three months ended September 29, 2013 , was primarily due to the consolidation of two partially-owned North American distributors and decreased demand at Komatsu Cummins Chile, Ltda., partially offset by increased demand at Dongfeng Cummins Engine Company, Ltd.

The overall decrease for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , was primarily due to the consolidation of two partially-owned North American distributors, partially offset by increased demand at Beijing Foton Cummins Engine Co., Ltd.

As we execute our plan to acquire partially-owned distributors over the next three to five years, over time equity earnings for our North American distributors will decrease.

Gain on Sale of Businesses

In the second quarter of 2012, we recorded an additional $6 million gain ($4 million after-tax) related to final purchase adjustments for our 2011 divestitures. The gain was excluded from segment results as it was not considered in our evaluation of operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

the nine month tax rate includes a discrete tax benefit in the first quarter of 2013 of $28 million attributable to the reinstatement of the research credit back to 2012, as well as a discrete tax expense in the first quarter of 2013 of $17 million, which primarily relates to the write-off of a deferred tax asset deemed unrecoverable. On January 2, 2013, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 was signed into law and reinstated the research tax credit. As tax law changes are accounted for in the period of enactment, we recognized the discrete tax benefit in the first quarter of 2013.

Our tax rates for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, were 24.1 percent and 25.5 percent, respectively. These tax rates include a $16 million tax benefit for third quarter discrete tax adjustments, $6 million of which related to a dividend distribution of accumulated foreign income earned in prior years. These discrete tax adjustments also included a discrete tax benefit of $13 million for prior year tax return true-up adjustments and a discrete tax charge of $3 million related to the third quarter enactment of U.K. tax law changes. The increase in the 2013 effective tax rates compared to 2012 is primarily due to unfavorable changes in the pre-tax mix of income taxed in higher rate jurisdictions and discrete tax items.

Net Income Attributable to Cummins Inc. and Diluted Earnings Per Share Attributable to Cummins Inc.

Net income and diluted earnings per share attributable to Cummins for the three months ended September 29, 2013 , increase d versus the comparable period in 2012 , primarily due to higher gross margin as a percentage of sales, mainly driven by higher price realization, favorable changes in cash surrender value of corporate owned life insurance and lower research, development and engineering expenses, which were partially offset by increased selling, general and administrative expenses, a higher effective tax rate and a legal settlement.

Net income and diluted earnings per share attributable to Cummins for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , decrease d versus the comparable period in 2012 , primarily due to lower gross margin as a percentage of sales, mainly driven by unfavorable product mix and lower volumes, a higher effective tax rate and lower equity, royalty and interest income from investees. These decreases were partially offset by lower research, development and engineering expenses. Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended September 29, 2013, benefited $0.04 from lower shares outstanding, primarily due to purchases under the stock repurchase program.

Sales

Distribution segment sales for the three months ended September 29, 2013 , increase d versus the comparable period in 2012 primarily due to $130 million of segment sales related to the consolidation of partially-owned North American distributors. This increase was partially offset by decreased demand in Other Asia/Australia and unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations.

Distribution segment sales for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , increase d versus the comparable period in 2012 primarily due to $369 million of segment sales related to the consolidation of partially-owned North American distributors. This increase was partially offset by decreased demand in most international markets and unfavorable foreign currency impacts.

Segment EBIT

Distribution segment EBIT for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2013 , decrease d versus the comparable periods in 2012 , primarily due to the acquisition of two North American distributors since September 2012 and unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations. The consolidation of North American distributors increased gross margin, reduced equity, royalty and interest income from investees and increased selling, general and administrative expenses. Amortization of acquisition related intangible assets also negatively impacted EBIT for the three and nine months ended September 29, 2013. These acquisitions resulted in a $12 million gain for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , related to the remeasurement of our pre-existing ownership interest in the distributors acquired in 2013, compared to a $7 million gain related to the remeasurement of our pre-exisiting 35 percent ownership interest in Cummins Central Power in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.

The gains are included in Other income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income . EBIT as a percentage of sales for the three months and nine months ended September 29, 2013 , was 9.1 percent and 10.5 percent , respectively as compared to 12.4 percent and 12.0 percent for the comparable periods in 2012 .

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Management’s Assessment of Liquidity

Our financial condition and liquidity remain strong. Our solid balance sheet and credit ratings enable us to continue to have ready access to credit and the capital markets.

We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate adequate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. We generate significant ongoing cash flow, which has been used, in part, to fund capital expenditures, pay dividends on our common stock, fund repurchases of common stock and make acquisitions. Cash provided by operations is our principal source of liquidity. As of September 29, 2013 , other sources of liquidity include:


•	cash and cash equivalents of $2.5 billion , of which approximately 58 percent is located in the U.S. and 42 percent is located primarily in the U.K., China, Singapore, India and Brazil,


•	marketable securities of $162 million , of which 77 percent is located in India, 18 percent is located in the U.S. and 5 percent is located in Brazil and the majority of which could be liquidated into cash within a few days,


•	revolving credit facility with $1.7 billion available, net of letters of credit and


•	international and other domestic credit facilities with $279 million available.

We believe our liquidity provides us with the financial flexibility needed to fund working capital, capital expenditures, projected pension obligations, dividend payments, common stock repurchases, acquisitions of our North American distributors and debt service obligations. We continue to generate cash from operations in the U.S. and maintain access to $1.7 billion of our revolver as noted above.

A significant portion of our cash flows is generated outside the U.S. As of September 29, 2013 , the total of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities held by foreign subsidiaries was $1.2 billion , the majority of which was located in the U.K., China, India, Singapore and Brazil. The geographic location of our cash and marketable securities aligns well with our business growth strategy. We manage our worldwide cash requirements considering available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct our business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. As a result, we do not anticipate any local liquidity restrictions to preclude us from funding our targeted expansion or operating needs with local resources.

If we distribute our foreign cash balances to the U.S. or to other foreign subsidiaries, we could be required to accrue and pay U.S. taxes. For example, we would be required to accrue and pay additional U.S. taxes if we repatriated cash from certain foreign subsidiaries whose earnings we have asserted are permanently reinvested outside of the U.S. Foreign earnings for which we assert permanent reinvestment outside the U.S. consist primarily of earnings of our China and U.K. domiciled subsidiaries. At present, we do not foresee a need to repatriate any earnings from these subsidiaries for which we have asserted permanent reinvestment. However, to help fund cash needs of the U.S. or other international subsidiaries as they arise, we repatriate available cash from certain foreign subsidiaries whose earnings are not permanently reinvested when it is cost effective to do so. Our 2012 and subsequent earnings from our China operations are considered permanently reinvested, while earnings generated prior to 2012, for which U.S. deferred tax liabilities have been recorded, are expected to be repatriated in future years .

Working Capital Summary

We fund our working capital with cash from operations and short-term borrowings when necessary. Various assets and liabilities, including short-term debt, can fluctuate significantly from month to month depending on short-term liquidity needs. As a result, working capital is a prime focus of management attention.



In millions	September 29, 2013		December 31, 2012		Change
Cash and cash equivalents	$	2,499	$	1,369	$	1,130

Accrued compensation, benefits and retirement costs	413		400		13
Taxes payable (including taxes on income)	112		173		(61		)
Other accrued expenses	816		761		55

Working capital	$	5,136	$	4,031
Current ratio	2.52		2.29
Days’ sales in receivables	56		53
Inventory turnover	5.2		5.7

Current assets increase d 19 percent compared to December 31, 2012 , primarily due to increases in cash and cash equivalents as a result of the $1 billion debt issuance in September of 2013, inventories and accounts and notes receivable, partially offset by a decline in other current assets (primarily related to refundable income taxes received in the first quarter of 2013) and marketable securities.

Current liabilities increase d 8 percent compared to December 31, 2012 , primarily due to an increase in accounts payable trade and an increase in other accrued expenses, partially offset by a decrease in taxes payable.

Days’ sales in receivables increase d 3 days versus the comparable period in 2012 . The increase was primarily due to lower sales in the first nine months of 2013.

Inventory turnover decrease d 0.5 turns versus the comparable period in 2012 . The decrease was due to inventory acquired as part of the acquisitions of Rocky Mountain and Northwest in 2013 and certain businesses restocking from lower inventory levels in December.

Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents increase d $1,130 million during the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , compared to a $451 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents during the comparable period in 2012 . Cash and cash equivalents were impacted as follows.

Net cash provided by operating activities	$	1,333		$	787		$	546

Net cash provided by operating activities increase d for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , versus the comparable period in 2012 , primarily due to favorable working capital fluctuations, partially offset by lower consolidated net income. During the first nine months of 2013 , the lower working capital requirements resulted in a cash outflow of $134 million compared to a cash outflow of $898 million in the comparable period in 2012 . This positive change of $764 million was primarily driven by an increase in accounts payable, lower net tax payments of $322 million due to the receipt of an income tax refund, which was partially offset by our tax payments in the first nine months of 2013 , a smaller decrease in accrued expenses and a smaller increase in inventories, partially offset by an increase in accounts and notes receivable in the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , versus the comparable period in 2012 .

Pensions

The funded status of our pension plans is dependent upon a variety of variables and assumptions including return on invested assets, market interest rates and levels of voluntary contributions to the plans. In the first nine months of 2013 , the return for our U.S. plan was 3.7 percent while our U.K. plan return was 7.8 percent. Approximately 76 percent of our pension plan assets are invested in highly liquid investments such as equity and fixed income securities. The remaining 24 percent of our plan assets are invested in less liquid, but market valued investments, including real estate, private equity and insurance contracts. We made $161 million of pension contributions in the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , and we anticipate making total contributions of approximately $170 million to our pension plans in 2013 , which include voluntary contributions of approximately $115 million . Expected contributions to our defined benefit pension plans in 2013 will meet or exceed the current funding requirements. Claims and premiums for other postretirement benefits are expected to approximate $47 million in 2013. The $161 million of pension contributions in the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , included voluntary contributions of $110 million . These contributions and payments include payments from our funds either to increase pension plan assets or to make direct payments to plan participants.

Net cash used in investing activities decrease d for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , versus the comparable period in 2012 , primarily due to lower investments in and advances to equity investees, lower cash investment for the acquisition of businesses and lower net investments in marketable securities, partially offset by unfavorable settlement of derivatives not designated as hedges.

On September 17, 2013, we announced our intention to acquire the equity that we do not already own in most of our partially-owned United States and Canadian distributors over the next three to five years.

Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 29, 2013 , were $417 million compared to $424 million in the comparable period in 2012 . Despite the challenging economies around the world, we continue to invest in new product lines and targeted capacity expansions. We now plan to spend approximately $700 million in 2013 as we continue with product launches, facility improvements and prepare for future emission standards. Over 50 percent of our capital expenditures will be invested outside of the U.S. in 2013. As of September 29, 2013, we have committed to invest an additional $59 million into existing joint ventures, of which $11 million is expected to be funded in 2013.

In July 2013, the Board of Directors authorized a dividend increase of 25 percent from $0.50 per share to $0.625 per share on a quarterly basis.

Our total debt was $1,793 million as of September 29, 2013 , compared with $775 million as of December 31, 2012 . Total debt as a percent of our total capital (total capital defined as debt plus equity) was 19.4 percent at September 29, 2013 , compared with 10.0 percent at December 31, 2012 .

In February 2011, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program and authorized the acquisition of up to $1 billion of our common stock, which was completed in June 2013. In December 2012, the Board of Directors authorized the acquisition of up to $1 billion of additional common stock upon completion of the 2011 repurchase plan. In 2013, we made the following quarterly purchases under the repurchase programs indicated:

We may continue to repurchase outstanding shares from time to time during 2013 to offset the dilutive impact of employee stock based compensation plans and to enhance shareholder value.

Credit Ratings

A number of our contractual obligations and financing agreements, such as our revolving credit facility have restrictive covenants and/or pricing modifications that may be triggered in the event of downward revisions to our corporate credit rating. There were no downgrades of our credit ratings in the third quarter of 2013 that have impacted these covenants or pricing modifications. Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, Fitch Ratings and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. confirmed our credit ratings as 'A', 'A' and 'A3', respectively, subsequent to the third quarter issuance of $1 billion in senior notes.

Credit ratings are not recommendations to buy, are subject to change and each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. In addition, we undertake no obligation to update disclosures concerning our credit ratings, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Our ratings and outlook from each of the credit rating agencies as of the date of filing are shown in the table below.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 1, “SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES,” of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of our 2012 Form 10-K which discusses accounting policies that we have selected from acceptable alternatives.

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles that often require management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions regarding uncertainties that affect the reported amounts presented and disclosed in the financial statements. Management reviews these estimates and assumptions based on historical experience, changes in business conditions and other relevant factors they believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. In any given reporting period, our actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Critical accounting estimates are defined as follows: the estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that were highly uncertain at the time the estimate was made; different estimates reasonably could have been used; or if changes in the estimate are reasonably likely to occur from period to period and the change would have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. Our senior management has discussed the development and selection of our accounting policies, related accounting estimates and the disclosures set forth below with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. We believe our critical accounting estimates include those addressing the estimation of liabilities for warranty programs, recoverability of investment related to new products, accounting for income taxes and pension benefits.

A discussion of our critical accounting estimates may be found in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” section of our 2012 Form 10-K under the caption “APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES.” Within the context of these critical accounting estimates, we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in different policies or estimates being reported in the first nine months of 2013 .

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

A discussion of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk may be found in Item 7A of our 2012 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes in this information since the filing of our 2012 Form 10-K. Further information regarding financial instruments and risk management is discussed in Note 13 , “ DERIVATIVES ,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements .

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, 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 29, 2013 , that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to other information set forth in this report, including the risk factors below, you should consider other risk factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K or the "CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION" in this Quarterly report are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently judge to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

Failure to successfully integrate the planned acquisitions of the equity we do not already own of our partially-owned United States and Canadian distributors could have an adverse impact on our realization of expected benefits to our financial condition and results of operations.

The completion of our plan to acquire all of the equity we do not already own of our partially- owned United States and Canadian distributors, (each, an ''Acquisition,'' and collectively, the ''Acquisitions''), is subject to various risks, including, among other things, our ability to realize the full extent of the incremental revenue, earnings, cash flow, cost savings and other benefits that we expect to realize as a result of the completion of the Acquisitions within the anticipated time frame, or at all; the costs that are expected to be incurred in connection with evaluating, negotiating, consummating and integrating the Acquisitions; the ability of management to focus adequate time and attention on evaluating, negotiating, consummating and integrating the Acquisitions; and diversion of management's attention from base strategies and objectives, both during and after the acquisition process. Further, as with all merger and acquisition activity, there can be no assurance that we will be able to negotiate, consummate and integrate the Acquisitions in accordance with our plans. Those persons holding the third-party ownership of our partially-owned United States and Canadian distributors may not agree to our acquisition proposals, including the terms and conditions thereof, and may claim that our proposals to exercise certain contractual rights that we have with respect to acquiring such distributors may violate applicable state franchise and distributor laws, which may result in the consummation of such Acquisitions on terms and conditions that are less favorable to us than we currently anticipate, or not at all.

After completion of the Acquisitions, we may fail to realize the expected enhanced revenue, earnings, cash flow, cost savings and other benefits.

The financial success of the Acquisitions will depend, in substantial part, on our ability to successfully combine our business with the businesses of our partially-owned United States and Canadian distributors, transition operations and realize the expected enhanced revenue, earnings, cash flow, cost savings and other benefits from such Acquisitions. While we currently believe that these enhanced revenue, earnings, cash flow, cost savings and other benefits estimates are achievable, it is possible

Table of Contents

that we will be unable to achieve these objectives within the anticipated time frame, or at all. Our enhanced revenue, earnings, cash flow, cost savings and other benefits estimates also depend on our ability to execute and integrate the Acquisitions in a manner that permits those benefits to be realized. If these estimates turn out to be incorrect or we are not able to execute our integration strategy successfully, the anticipated enhanced revenue, earnings, cash flow, cost savings and other benefits, resulting from the Acquisitions may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected.

Specifically, issues that must be addressed in integration in order to realize the anticipated benefits and costs savings of the Acquisitions include, among other things:


•	maintaining and improving management and employee engagement, morale, motivation and productivity;


•	recruiting and retaining executives and key employees;


•	retaining and strengthening relationships with existing customers and attracting new customers;


•	conforming standards, controls, procedures and policies, business cultures and compensation structures among the companies;


•	consolidating and streamlining corporate and administrative infrastructures;


•	consolidating sales, customer service and marketing operations;


•	identifying and eliminating redundant and underperforming operations and assets;


•	integrating the distribution, sales, customer service and administrative support activities among the companies;


•	integrating information technology systems, including those systems managing data security for sensitive employee, customer and vendor information, and diverse network applications across the companies;


•	managing the broadened competitive landscape, including responding to the actions taken by competitors in response to the Acquisitions;


•	coordinating geographically dispersed organizations;


•	managing the additional business risks of businesses that we have not previously directly managed; and


•	managing tax costs or inefficiencies associated with integrating our operations following completion of the Acquisitions.

Delays encountered in the process of integrating the Acquisitions could negatively impact our revenues, expenses, operating results, cash flow and financial condition after completion of the Acquisitions, including through the loss of current customers or suppliers. Although significant benefits, such as enhanced revenue, earnings, cash flow and cost savings, are expected to result from the Acquisitions, there can be no assurance that we will realize any of these anticipated benefits after completion of any or all of the Acquisitions.

Additionally, significant costs are expected to be incurred in connection with the integration of the Acquisitions. We continue to assess the magnitude of these costs and additional unanticipated costs may be incurred, including costs associated with assuming our partially-owned United States and Canadian distributors' exposure to outstanding and anticipated legal claims and other liabilities. Although we believe that the elimination of duplicative costs, as well as the realization of other synergies and efficiencies related to the integration of the Acquisitions, will offset incremental integration-related costs over time, no assurances can be given that this net benefit will be achieved in the near term, or at all. In addition, the process of integrating the operations of our partially- owned United States and Canadian distributors may distract management and employees from delivering against base strategies and objectives, which could negatively impact other segments of our business following the completion of the Acquisitions.

Furthermore, the Acquisitions and the related integration efforts, could result in the departure of key managers and employees, and we may fail to identify managerial resources to fill both executive-level and lower-level managerial positions and replace key employees, including those who oversee customer relationships, any of which could have a negative impact on our

Table of Contents

business, and, prior to the completion of the Acquisitions, the businesses of our partially-owned United States and Canadian distributors.

The completion of the Acquisitions may be subject to the receipt of certain required clearances or approvals from governmental entities that could prevent or delay their completion or impose conditions that could have an adverse effect on us.

Completion of each of the Acquisitions may be conditioned upon the receipt of certain governmental clearances or approvals, including, but not limited to, the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting periods under U.S. competition and trade laws with respect to such Acquisitions. There can be no assurance that these clearances and approvals will be obtained, and, additionally, government authorities from which these clearances and approvals are required may impose conditions on the completion of any, or all, of the Acquisitions or require changes to their respective terms. If, in order to obtain any clearances or approvals required to complete any of the Acquisitions, we become subject to any material conditions after completion of any of such Acquisitions, our business and results of operations after completion of any of such Acquisitions may be adversely affected.

_______________________________________________________________________

⁽¹⁾ Shares purchased represent shares under our Key Employee Stock Investment Plan established in 1969 (there is no maximum repurchase limitation in this plan) and our share repurchase plan.

⁽²⁾ These values reflect the sum of shares held in loan status under our Key Employee Stock Investment Plan. The repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors does not limit the number of shares that may be purchased and was excluded from this column.

In February 2011, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program and authorized the acquisition of up to $1 billion of our common stock, which was completed in June 2013.

In December 2012, the Board of Directors authorized the acquisition of up to $1 billion of additional common stock upon completion of the 2011 repurchase plan. As of September 29, 2013 , we have $937 million available for purchase under this authorization.

During the three months ended September 29, 2013 , we repurchased 17,344 shares from employees in connection with the Key Employee Stock Investment Plan which allows certain employees, other than officers, to purchase shares of common stock on an installment basis up to an established credit limit. Loans are issued for five-year terms at a fixed interest rate established at the date of purchase and may be refinanced after its initial five-year period for an additional five-year period. Participants must hold shares for a minimum of six months from date of purchase and after shares are sold must wait six months before another share purchase may be made. We hold participants’ shares as security for the loans and would, in effect repurchase shares if the participant defaulted in repayment of the loan. There is no maximum amount of shares that we may purchase under this plan.
