Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation and Responsibility for Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Pentair plc (formerly Pentair Ltd.) and its subsidiaries ("we," "us," "our," "Pentair," or "the Company") have been prepared following the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America can be condensed or omitted.

We are responsible for the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this document. The financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments that are considered necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position and operating results. As these are condensed financial statements, one should also read our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 .

Revenues, expenses, cash flows, assets and liabilities can and do vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these interim financial statements may not be indicative of those for a full year.

Our fiscal year ends on December 31. We report our interim quarterly periods on a calendar quarter basis.

New accounting standards

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new accounting standard for share-based payments. The guidance simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification of excess tax benefits in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. We adopted the new standard in the first quarter of 2017. The impact of the adoption resulted in the following:


•	All excess tax benefits and deficiencies arising from employee share-based payment awards, and dividends on those awards, will be recognized within income taxes in the period in which they occur rather than within additional paid-in-capital. Our adoption of this requirement under the new standard had no material impact for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.


•	The Company no longer presents excess tax benefits within cash flows from financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows; instead these are now reflected within cash flows from operating activities. The Company elected to apply this change prospectively.


•	The Company elected not to change its policy on accounting for forfeitures and continues to estimate the total number of awards for which the requisite service period will not be rendered.


•	The Company excluded the excess tax benefits from the assumed proceeds available to repurchase shares in the computation of our diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. This increased diluted weighted average common shares outstanding by less than 200,000 shares for the aforementioned period.

In February 2016, the FASB issued new accounting requirements regarding accounting for leases, which require an entity to recognize both assets and liabilities arising from financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. The requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and early adoption is permitted. We have not yet determined the potential effects on our financial condition or results of operations.

In May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting requirements for the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers. The new requirements also include additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company intends to adopt the new revenue guidance as of January 1, 2018 and is currently evaluating the overall impact this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company expects to utilize the modified retrospective transition method of adoption with adjustment to beginning retained earnings for the cumulative effect of the change.

2. Discontinued Operations

On August 18, 2016, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") to sell our Valves & Controls business to Emerson Electric Co. for a purchase price of $3.15 billion in cash, subject to certain customary adjustments. We expect the sale to close in the second quarter of 2017, subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions.

The results of the Valves & Controls business have been presented as discontinued operations and the related assets and liabilities have been reclassified as held for sale for all periods presented. The Valves & Controls business was previously disclosed as a stand-alone reporting segment. Transaction costs of $11.2 million related to the sale of Valves & Controls were incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and were recorded within Selling, general and administrative expenses in the operating results of discontinued operations presented below.

Operating results of discontinued operations are summarized below:



	Three months ended

3.	Share Plans

Total share-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was as follows:



	Three months ended
In millions	March 31, 2017		March 31, 2016
Restricted stock units	$	5.8	$	7.0
Stock options	4.5		5.4
Performance share units	6.1		3.7
Total share-based compensation expense	$	16.4	$	16.1

In the first quarter of 2017 , we issued our annual share-based compensation grants under the Pentair plc 2012 Stock and Incentive Plan to eligible employees. The total number of awards issued was approximately 1.4 million , of which 0.3 million were restricted stock units, 0.9 million were stock options and 0.2 million were performance share units. The weighted-average grant date fair value of the restricted stock units, stock options and performance share units issued was $58.93 , $12.57 and $58.41 , respectively.

Table of Contents

Pentair plc and Subsidiaries

Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited)

We estimated the fair value of each stock option award issued in the annual share-based compensation grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, modified for dividends and using the following assumptions:



	2017 Annual Grant
Risk-free interest rate	1.61	%
Expected dividend yield	2.38	%
Expected share price volatility	26.9	%
Expected term (years)	6.3

These estimates require us to make assumptions based on historical results, observance of trends in our share price, changes in option exercise behavior, future expectations and other relevant factors. If other assumptions had been used, share-based compensation expense, as calculated and recorded under the accounting guidance, could have been affected.

We based the expected life assumption on historical experience as well as the terms and vesting periods of the options granted. For purposes of determining expected share price volatility, we considered a rolling average of historical volatility measured over a period approximately equal to the expected option term. The risk-free interest rate for periods that coincide with the expected life of the options is based on the U.S. Treasury Department yield curve in effect at the time of grant.


4.	Restructuring

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016 , we continued execution of certain business restructuring initiatives aimed at reducing our fixed cost structure and realigning our business. Initiatives during the three months ended March 31, 2017 included the reduction in hourly and salaried headcount of approximately 200 employees, consisting of approximately 100 in Water and 100 in Electrical. Initiatives during the year ended December 31, 2016 included the reduction in hourly and salaried headcount of approximately 650 employees, consisting of approximately 300 in Water and 350 in Electrical.

Restructuring related costs included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) included costs for severance and other restructuring costs as follows:

⁽¹⁾ Senior notes are guaranteed as to payment by Pentair plc and PISG

In October 2014, Pentair plc, Pentair Investments Switzerland GmbH ("PISG"), Pentair Finance S.A. ("PFSA") and Pentair, Inc. entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Facility"), with Pentair plc and PISG as guarantors and PFSA and Pentair, Inc. as borrowers. The Credit Facility had a maximum aggregate availability of $2,100.0 million and a maturity date of October 3, 2019. Borrowings under the Credit Facility generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a specified margin based upon PFSA's credit ratings. PFSA must pay a facility fee ranging from 9.0 to 25.0 basis points per annum (based upon PFSA's credit ratings) on the amount of each lender's commitment and letter of credit fee for each letter of credit issued and outstanding under the Credit Facility.

In August 2015, Pentair plc, PISG and PFSA entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Facility (the "First Amendment"), which, among other things, increased the Leverage Ratio (as defined below). In September 2015, Pentair plc, PISG and PFSA entered into a Second Amendment to the Credit Facility (the "Second Amendment"), which, among other things, increased the maximum aggregate availability to $2,500.0 million . Additionally, in September 2016, Pentair plc, PISG and PFSA entered into a Third Amendment to the Credit Facility (the "Third Amendment," and collectively with the First Amendment and the Second Amendment, the "Amendments"), which, among other things, increased the Leverage Ratio to the amounts specified below, and amended the definition of EBITDA to include earnings from discontinued operations for operations subject to a sale agreement until such disposition actually occurs.

PFSA is authorized to sell short-term commercial paper notes to the extent availability exists under the Credit Facility. PFSA uses the Credit Facility as back-up liquidity to support 100% of commercial paper outstanding. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , PFSA had $532.7 million and $398.7 million , respectively, of commercial paper outstanding, all of which was classified as long-term debt as we have the intent and the ability to refinance such obligations on a long-term basis under the Credit Facility.

For purposes of the Leverage Ratio, the Credit Facility provides for the calculation of EBITDA giving pro forma effect to certain acquisitions, divestitures and liquidations during the period to which such calculation relates. As of March 31, 2017 , we were in compliance with all financial covenants in our debt agreements .

Total availability under the Credit Facility was $1,295.4 million as of March 31, 2017 , which was limited to $96.2 million by the maximum Leverage Ratio in the Credit Facility’s credit agreement.

In addition to the Credit Facility, we have various other credit facilities with an aggregate availability of $53.2 million , of which there were no outstanding borrowings at March 31, 2017 . Borrowings under these credit facilities bear interest at variable rates.

We have $350.0 million of fixed rate senior notes maturing in September 2017 . We classified this debt as long-term as of March 31, 2017 as we have the intent and ability to refinance such obligation on a long-term basis under the Credit Facility.

Debt outstanding, excluding unamortized issuance costs and discounts, at March 31, 2017 matures on a calendar year basis as follows:

9.	Derivatives and Financial Instruments

Derivative financial instruments

We are exposed to market risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. To manage the volatility related to this exposure, we periodically enter into a variety of derivative financial instruments. Our objective is to reduce, where it is deemed appropriate to do so, fluctuations in earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency rates. The derivative contracts contain credit risk to the extent that our bank counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. The amount of such credit risk is generally limited to the unrealized gains, if any, in such contracts. Such risk is minimized by limiting those counterparties to major financial institutions of high credit quality.

Foreign currency contracts

We conduct business in various locations throughout the world and are subject to market risk due to changes in the value of foreign currencies in relation to our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. We manage our economic and transaction exposure to certain market-based risks through the use of foreign currency derivative financial instruments. Our objective in holding these derivatives is to reduce the volatility of net earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The majority of our foreign currency contracts have an original maturity date of less than one year.

At March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we had outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts with gross notional U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of $470.8 million and $475.6 million , respectively. The impact of these contracts on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) is not material for any period presented.

Gains or losses on foreign currency contracts designated as hedges are reclassified out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss ("AOCI") and into Selling, general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) upon settlement. Such reclassifications during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were not material.

Net investment hedge

We have net investments in foreign subsidiaries that are subject to changes in the foreign currency exchange rate. In September 2015, we designated the €500 million 2.45% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "2019 Euro Notes") as a net investment hedge for a portion of our net investment in our Euro denominated subsidiaries. The gains/losses on the 2019 Euro Notes have been

included as a component of the cumulative translation adjustment account within AOCI. As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we had deferred foreign currency gains of $24.1 million and $44.2 million , respectively, in AOCI associated with the net investment hedge activity.

Fair value measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date:



Level 1:		Valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2:		Valuation is based on inputs such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3:		Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.

In making fair value measurements, observable market data must be used when available. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Fair value of financial instruments

The following methods were used to estimate the fair values of each class of financial instruments:


•	short-term financial instruments (cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts and notes payable and variable-rate debt) — recorded amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity period;


•	long-term fixed-rate debt, including current maturities — fair value is based on market quotes available for issuance of debt with similar terms, which are inputs that are classified as Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy defined by the accounting guidance; and


•	foreign currency contract agreements — fair values are determined through the use of models that consider various assumptions, including time value, yield curves, as well as other relevant economic measures, which are inputs that are classified as Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy defined by the accounting guidance.

The recorded amounts and estimated fair values of total debt, excluding unamortized issuance costs and discounts, were as follows:



	March 31, 2017				December 31, 2016
In millions	Recorded Amount		Fair Value		Recorded Amount		Fair Value
Variable rate debt	$	1,205.3	$	1,205.3	$	976.3	$	976.3
Fixed rate debt	3,340.7		3,451.4		3,320.7		3,427.1
Total debt	$	4,546.0	$	4,656.7	$	4,297.0	$	4,403.4

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis were as follows:

In millions	Level 1		Level 2			Level 3		Total
Recurring fair value measurements
Foreign currency contract assets	$	—	$	2.5		$	—	$	2.5

Nonrecurring fair value measurements ⁽²⁾

(1)

Deferred compensation plan assets include mutual funds, common/collective trusts and cash equivalents for payment of certain non-qualified benefits for retired, terminated and active employees. The fair value of mutual funds and cash equivalents were based on quoted market prices in active markets. The underlying investments in the common/collective trusts primarily include intermediate and long-term debt securities, corporate debt securities, equity securities and fixed income securities. The overall fair value of the common/collective trusts are based on observable inputs.

(2)

During the fourth quarter of 2016, we completed our annual intangible assets impairment review. As a result, we recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $13.3 million for a trade name intangible in 2016. The impairment charge reduced the carrying value of the impacted trade name intangible to $0 . The fair value of trade names is measured using the relief-from-royalty method. This method assumes the trade name has value to the extent that the owner is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits receive from them. This method requires us to estimate the future revenue for the related brands, the appropriate royalty rate and the weighted average cost of capital.


10.	Income Taxes

We manage our affairs so that we are centrally managed and controlled in the United Kingdom (the "U.K.") and therefore have our tax residency in the U.K. The provision for income taxes consists of provisions for U.K. and international income taxes. We operate in an international environment with operations in various locations outside the U.K. Accordingly, the consolidated income tax rate is a composite rate reflecting the earnings in the various locations and the applicable rates.

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 22.1% , compared to 21.5% for 2016 . We continue to actively pursue initiatives to reduce our effective tax rate. The tax rate in any quarter can be affected positively or negatively by adjustments that are required to be reported in the specific quarter of resolution.

The liability for uncertain tax positions was $70.5 million and $71.1 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. We record penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in Provision for income taxes and Net interest expense , respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss), which is consistent with our past practices.

Components of net periodic benefit cost for our other post-retirement plans for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 were not material.


12.	Shareholders’ Equity

Share repurchases

In December 2014, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of our ordinary shares up to a maximum dollar limit of $1.0 billion . The authorization expires on December 31, 2019 . There were no share repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 pursuant to this authorization. As of March 31, 2017 , we had $800.0 million available for share repurchases under this authorization.

Dividends payable

On December 6, 2016, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.345 that was paid on February 10, 2017 to shareholders of record at the close of business on January 27, 2017 and approved a plan to increase the 2017 annual cash dividend to $1.38 , which is intended to be paid in four equal quarterly installments. Additionally, on February 21, 2017 the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.345 payable on May 5, 2017 to shareholders of record at the close of business on April 21, 2017. As a result, the balance of dividends payable included in Other current liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets was $62.9 million and $61.8 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively.


13.	Segment Information

During the first quarter of 2017, we reorganized our business segments to reflect a new operating structure, resulting in a change to our reporting segments in 2017. The prior period information was recast to be comparable to the current year presentation.

We evaluate performance based on net sales and segment income (loss) and use a variety of ratios to measure performance of our reporting segments. These results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred had each segment been an independent, stand-alone entity during the periods presented. Segment income (loss) represents equity income of unconsolidated subsidiaries and operating income exclusive of intangible amortization, certain acquisition related expenses, costs of restructuring activities, "mark-to-market" gain/loss for pension and other post-retirement plans, impairments and other unusual non-operating items.

14.	Commitments and Contingencies

Asbestos matters

Our subsidiaries and numerous other companies are named as defendants in personal injury lawsuits based on alleged exposure to asbestos-containing materials. These cases typically involve product liability claims based primarily on allegations of manufacture, sale or distribution of industrial products that either contained asbestos or were attached to or used with asbestos-containing components manufactured by third-parties. Each case typically names between dozens to hundreds of corporate defendants. While we have observed an increase in the number of these lawsuits over the past several years, including lawsuits by plaintiffs with mesothelioma-related claims, a large percentage of these suits have not presented viable legal claims and, as a result, have been dismissed by the courts. Our historical strategy has been to mount a vigorous defense aimed at having unsubstantiated suits dismissed, and, where appropriate, settling suits before trial. Although a large percentage of litigated suits have been dismissed, we cannot predict the extent to which we will be successful in resolving lawsuits in the future.

As of March 31, 2017 , there were approximately 3,300 claims outstanding against our subsidiaries, of which approximately 2,800 relate to the Valves & Control business classified as held for sale. These amounts include adjustments for claims that are not actively being prosecuted. The amounts are not adjusted for claims that identify incorrect defendants or duplicate other actions. In addition, the amounts do not include certain claims pending against third parties for which we have been provided an indemnification.

Periodically, we perform an analysis with the assistance of outside counsel and other experts to update our estimated asbestos-related assets and liabilities. Our estimate of the liability and corresponding insurance recovery for pending and future claims and defense costs is based on our historical claim experience and estimates of the number and resolution cost of potential future claims that may be filed. Our legal strategy for resolving claims also impacts these estimates.

Our estimate of asbestos-related insurance recoveries represents estimated amounts due to us for previously paid and settled claims and the probable reimbursements relating to our estimated liability for pending and future claims. In determining the

Table of Contents

Notes to condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited)

amount of insurance recoverable, we consider a number of factors, including available insurance, allocation methodologies and the solvency and creditworthiness of insurers.

Our estimated liability for asbestos-related claims was $224.6 million and $228.3 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, and was recorded in Non-current liabilities held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for pending and future claims and related defense costs. Our estimated receivable for insurance recoveries was $107.4 million and $108.5 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, and was recorded in Non-current assets held for sale in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The amounts recorded by us for asbestos-related liabilities and insurance-related assets are based on our strategies for resolving our asbestos claims and currently available information as well as estimates and assumptions. Key variables and assumptions include the number and type of new claims filed each year, the average cost of resolution of claims, the resolution of coverage issues with insurance carriers, the amounts of insurance and the related solvency risk with respect to our insurance carriers, and the indemnifications we have provided to and received from third parties. Furthermore, predictions with respect to these variables are subject to greater uncertainty in the latter portion of the projection period. Other factors that may affect our liability and cash payments for asbestos-related matters include uncertainties surrounding the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, reforms of state or federal tort legislation and the applicability of insurance policies among subsidiaries. As a result, actual liabilities or insurance recoveries could be significantly higher or lower than those recorded if assumptions used in our calculations vary significantly from actual results.

Environmental matters

We are involved in or have retained responsibility and potential liability for environmental obligations and legal proceedings related to our current business and, including pursuant to certain indemnification obligations, related to certain formerly owned businesses. Our accruals for environmental matters are recorded on a site-by-site basis when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated, based on current law and existing technologies. Based upon our experience, current information regarding known contingencies and applicable laws, we have recorded reserves for these environmental matters of $17.6 million and $18.3 million as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, which relate primarily to the Valves & Controls business classified as held for sale. We do not anticipate these environmental conditions will have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Warranties and guarantees

In connection with the disposition of our businesses or product lines, we may agree to indemnify purchasers for various potential liabilities relating to the sold business, such as pre-closing tax, product liability, warranty, environmental, or other obligations. The subject matter, amounts and duration of any such indemnification obligations vary for each type of liability indemnified and may vary widely from transaction to transaction. Generally, the maximum obligation under such indemnifications is not explicitly stated and as a result, the overall amount of these obligations cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, we have not made significant payments for these indemnifications. We believe that if we were to incur a loss in any of these matters, the loss would not have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

We recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee.

We provide service and warranty policies on our products. Liability under service and warranty policies is based upon a review of historical warranty and service claim experience. Adjustments are made to accruals as claim data and historical experience warrant.

The changes in the carrying amount of service and product warranties of continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were as follows:

Stand-by letters of credit, bank guarantees and bonds

In certain situations, Tyco International Ltd., Pentair Ltd.'s former parent company ("Tyco"), guaranteed performance by the flow control business of Pentair Ltd. ("Flow Control") to third parties or provided financial guarantees for financial commitments of Pentair Ltd. In situations where Flow Control and Tyco were unable to obtain a release from these guarantees in connection with the spin-off of Pentair Ltd., we will indemnify Tyco for any losses it suffers as a result of such guarantees.

In disposing of assets or businesses, we often provide representations, warranties and indemnities to cover various risks including unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability to investigate and remediate environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities and unidentified tax liabilities and legal fees related to periods prior to disposition. We do not have the ability to reasonably estimate the potential liability due to the inchoate and unknown nature of these potential liabilities. However, we have no reason to believe that these uncertainties would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In the ordinary course of business, we are required to commit to bonds, letters of credit and bank guarantees that require payments to our customers for any non-performance. The outstanding face value of these instruments fluctuates with the value of our projects in process and in our backlog. In addition, we issue financial stand-by letters of credit primarily to secure our performance to third parties under self-insurance programs.

As of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the outstanding value of bonds, letters of credit and bank guarantees totaled $353.9 million and $331.0 million , respectively, of which $149.1 million and $156.6 million , respectively, relate to the Valves & Controls business classified as held for sale.

We classify our operations into business segments based primarily on types of products offered and markets served:


•	Water — The Water segment designs, manufactures and services innovative products and solutions to meet filtration, separation, flow and water management challenges in agriculture, aquaculture, foodservice, food and beverage processing, swimming pools, water supply and disposal and a variety of industrial applications.


•	Electrical — The Electrical segment designs, manufactures and services products that protect some of the world’s most sensitive equipment, as well as heat management solutions designed to provide thermal protection to temperature sensitive fluid applications and engineered electrical and fastening products for electrical, mechanical and civil applications.

On August 18, 2016, we entered into a Share Purchase Agreement to sell our Valves & Controls business to Emerson Electric Co. for a purchase price of $3.15 billion in cash, subject to customary adjustments. We expect the sale to close in the second quarter of 2017, subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions. The results of the Valves & Controls business have been presented as discontinued operations and the related assets and liabilities have been reclassified as held for sale for all periods presented. The Valves & Controls business was previously disclosed as a stand-alone reporting segment.

Key Trends and Uncertainties Regarding Our Existing Business

The following trends and uncertainties affected our financial performance in 2016 and the first three months of 2017 and will likely impact our results in the future:

•

Despite the favorable long-term outlook for our end-markets, we experience differing levels of volatility depending on the end-market and may continue to do so over the medium and longer term. During 2016 and the first three months of 2017 , our core sales have been challenged by broad-based industrial capital expenditure and maintenance deferrals. Although we saw early signs of recovery in the first quarter of 2017 , we expect this challenge to continue throughout 2017.


•	We experienced declines in project orders, particularly within the energy and infrastructure businesses. We expect headwinds in the energy and infrastructure businesses to continue and oil prices to remain depressed throughout 2017 .

Table of Contents


•	We continued execution of certain business restructuring initiatives aimed at reducing our fixed cost structure and realigning our business to offset the negative earnings impact of core revenue decline and foreign exchange. We expect to continue these actions throughout the first half of 2017 and that these actions will contribute to margin growth in 2017 .


•	Our results were negatively impacted due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against most key global currencies in 2016 and continuing in the first three months of 2017 . We expect this trend to continue throughout 2017 .

•

We have identified specific product and geographic market opportunities that we find attractive and continue to pursue, both within and outside the United States. We are reinforcing our businesses to more effectively address these opportunities through research and development and additional sales and marketing resources. Unless we successfully penetrate these markets, our core sales growth will likely be limited or may decline.


•	We have experienced material and other cost inflation. We strive for productivity improvements, and we implement increases in selling prices to help mitigate this inflation. We expect the current economic environment will result in continuing price volatility for many of our raw materials, and we are uncertain as to the timing and impact of these market changes.

In 2017 , our operating objectives include the following:


•	Reducing long-term debt and overall leverage through improved cash flow performance and use of proceeds from the pending sale of the Valves & Controls business;


•	Driving operating excellence through lean enterprise initiatives, with specific focus on sourcing and supply management, cash flow management and lean operations;


•	Achieving differentiated revenue growth through new products and global and market expansion;


•	Optimizing our technological capabilities to increasingly generate innovative new products; and


•	Focusing on developing global talent in light of our global presence.

Net sales

The components of the consolidated net sales change from the prior period were as follows:



	Three months ended March 31, 2017
	over the prior year period
Volume	(1.8	)%
Price	1.1
Core growth	(0.7	)
Acquisition	0.5
Currency	(0.3	)
Total	(0.5	)%

The 0.5 percentage point decrease in net sales in the first quarter of 2017 from 2016 and was primarily driven by:


•	continued slowdown in capital spending, particularly in the energy and infrastructure businesses, driving lower project core sales volume; and


•	a strong U.S. dollar causing unfavorable foreign currency effects for the three months ended March 31, 2017 .

These decrease s were partially offset by:


•	core sales growth in our residential and commercial business, primarily as a result of increased volumes in the U.S.;


•	selective increases in selling prices to mitigate inflationary cost increases; and


•	increased sales related to business acquisitions that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2016 and the first quarter of 2017.

Table of Contents

Gross profit

The 0.5 percentage point decrease in gross profit as a percentage of sales in the first quarter of 2017 from 2016 was primarily driven by:


•	lower project core sales volumes in the Electrical segment, which resulted in decreased leverage on fixed expenses included in cost of goods sold;


•	non-recurring costs on large projects in the first quarter of 2017 ; and


•	inflationary increases related to raw materials and labor costs.

These decrease s were partially offset by:


•	higher contribution margin as a result of savings generated from our Pentair Integrated Management System ("PIMS") initiatives including lean and supply management practices; and


•	selective increases in selling prices to mitigate inflationary cost increases.

Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A")

The 0.5 percentage point increase in SG&A expense as a percentage of sales in the first quarter of 2017 from 2016 was primarily driven by:


•	restructuring costs of $20.9 million in the first quarter of 2017 , compared to $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2016 ; and


•	increased investment in sales and marketing to drive growth.

This increase was partially offset by:


•	cost control and savings generated from back-office consolidation, reduction in personnel and other lean initiatives; and


•	benefit from the reversal of a $13.3 million indemnification liability related to our 2012 transaction with Tyco (now known as Johnson Controls International plc).

Net interest expense

The 3.3 percent decrease in net interest expense in the first quarter of 2017 from 2016 was primarily driven by:


•	the impact of higher debt levels during the first quarter of 2016 , compared to the first quarter of 2017 .

This decrease was partially offset by:


•	increased overall interest rates in effect on our outstanding debt during the first quarter of 2017 , compared to the first quarter of 2016 .

Provision for income taxes

The 0.6 percentage point increase in the effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2017 from 2016 was primarily driven by:


•	non-recurring benefits related to resolution of tax disputes and expiration of statutes of limitations during the first quarter of 2016 that did not recur in the first quarter of 2017 ; and

• the tax impact and timing of losses incurred during the first quarter of 2017 , compared to the first quarter of 2016 .

This increase was partially offset by:

• mix of global earnings toward lower tax jurisdictions; and

• the income tax effects of vesting and exercise of share-based awards.

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The summary that follows provides a discussion of the results of operations of each of our two reportable segments (Water and Electrical). Each of these segments is comprised of various product offerings that serve multiple end users.

We evaluate the performance o f our two reportable segments based on net sales and segment income and use a variety of ratios to measure performance. Segment income represents equity income of unconsolidated subsidiaries and operating income

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We generally fund cash requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, equity investments, acquisitions, debt repayments, dividend payments and share repurchases from cash generated from operations, availability under existing committed revolving credit facilities and in certain instances, public and private debt and equity offerings. Our primary revolving credit facilities have generally been adequate for these purposes, although we have negotiated additional credit facilities or completed debt and equity offerings as needed to allow us to complete acquisitions. We intend to issue commercial paper to fund our financing needs on a short-term basis and to use our revolving credit facility as back-up liquidity to support commercial paper.

We are focusing on increasing our cash flow and repaying existing debt, while continuing to fund our research and development, marketing and capital investment initiatives. Our intent is to maintain investment grade credit ratings and a solid liquidity position.

We experience seasonal cash flows primarily due to seasonal demand in a number of markets within both our Water and Electrical segments. We generally borrow in the first quarter of our fiscal year for operational purposes, which usage reverses in the second quarter as the seasonality of our businesses peaks. End-user demand for pool and certain pumping equipment follows warm weather trends and is at seasonal highs from April to August. The magnitude of the sales spike is partially mitigated by employing some advance sale "early buy" programs (generally including extended payment terms and/or additional discounts). Demand for residential and agricultural water systems is also impacted by weather patterns, particularly by heavy flooding and droughts. Additionally, Electrical generally experiences increased demand for thermal protection products and services during the fall and winter months in the Northern Hemisphere and increased demand for electrical fastening products during the spring and summer months in the Northern Hemisphere.

Operating activities

Cash used for operating activities of continuing operations was $88.7 million in the first three months of 2017 , compared to $17.7 million in the same period of 2016 .

The $88.7 million in net cash used for operating activities of continuing operations in the first three months of 2017 primarily reflects an increase in net working capital. Operating cash flows in the first three months of 2017 were negatively impacted by $221.2 million due to the increase in net working capital, primarily the result of increases in accounts receivable and inventories in anticipation of our peak sales season in the second and third quarters. The increase in net working capital was offset by $126.1 million of net income from continuing operations, net of non-cash depreciation and amortization.

Table of Contents

The $17.7 million in net cash used for operating activities of continuing operations in the first three months of 2016 primarily reflects an increase in net working capital of $146.3 million , offset by net income from continuing operations, net of non-cash depreciation and amortization of $136.9 million .

Investing activities

Cash used for investing activities of continuing operations was $80.3 million in the first three months of 2017 , compared to $27.7 million in the same period of 2016 . Net cash used for investing activities of continuing operations in the first three months of 2017 relates to capital expenditures of $23.6 million and acquisitions, net of cash acquired of $56.7 million . Net cash used for investing activities of continuing operations in the first three months of 2016 relates primarily relates to capital expenditures of $32.8 million , partially offset by $5.4 million of proceeds from the sale of property and equipment.

We anticipate capital expenditures for fiscal 2017 to be approximately $100 million, primarily for capacity expansions of manufacturing facilities, developing new products and general maintenance.

Financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $169.0 million in the first three months of 2017 , compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $77.2 million in the prior year period. Net cash provided by financing activities in the first three months of 2017 and 2016 primarily included net receipts of commercial paper and revolving long-term debt, partially offset by payment of dividends.

In October 2014, Pentair plc, PISG, PFSA and Pentair, Inc. entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Credit Facility"), with Pentair plc and PISG as guarantors and PFSA and Pentair, Inc. as borrowers. The Credit Facility had a maximum aggregate availability of $2,100.0 million and a maturity date of October 3, 2019. Borrowings under the Credit Facility generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a specified margin based upon PFSA's credit ratings. PFSA must pay a facility fee ranging from 9.0 to 25.0 basis points per annum (based upon PFSA's credit ratings) on the amount of each lender's commitment and letter of credit fee for each letter of credit issued and outstanding under the Credit Facility.

In August 2015, Pentair plc, Pentair Investment Switzerland GmbH ("PISG") and Pentair Finance S.A. ("PFSA") entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Facility (the "First Amendment"), which, among other things, increased the Leverage Ratio (as defined below). In September 2015, Pentair plc, PISG and PFSA entered into a Second Amendment to the Credit Facility (the "Second Amendment,"), which, among other things, increased the maximum aggregate availability to $2,500.0 million . Additionally, in September 2016, Pentair plc, PISG and PFSA entered into a Third Amendment to the Credit Facility (the "Third Amendment," and collectively with the First Amendment and the Second Amendment, the "Amendments"), which, among other things, increased the Leverage Ratio to the amounts specified below, and amended the definition of EBITDA to include earnings from discontinued operations for operations subject to a sale agreement until such disposition actually occurs.

Our debt agreements contain certain financial covenants, the most restrictive of which are in the Credit Facility (as updated for the Amendments), including that we may not permit (i) the ratio of our consolidated debt plus synthetic lease obligations to our consolidated net income (excluding, among other things, non-cash gains and losses) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash share-based compensation expense, up to a lifetime maximum $25.0 million of costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with certain acquisitions, investments, dispositions and the issuance, repayment or refinancing of debt, ("EBITDA") for the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the "Leverage Ratio") to exceed (a) 4.25 to 1.00 as of the last day of the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on March 31, 2017; (b) 4.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on June 30, 2017; and (c) 3.50 to 1.00 as of the last day of the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending thereafter, and (ii) the ratio of our EBITDA for the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended to our consolidated interest expense, including consolidated yield or discount accrued as to outstanding securitization obligations (if any), for the same period to be less than 3.00 to 1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter. For purposes of the Leverage Ratio, the Credit Facility provides for the calculation of EBITDA giving pro forma effect to certain acquisitions, divestitures and liquidations during the period to which such calculation relates. As of March 31, 2017 , we were in compliance with all financial covenants in our debt agreements .

Total availability under the Credit Facility was $1,295.4 million as of March 31, 2017 , which was limited to $96.2 million by the maximum Leverage Ratio in the Credit Facility’s credit agreement.

Table of Contents

As of March 31, 2017 , we have $139.8 million of cash held in certain countries in which the ability to repatriate is limited due to local regulations or significant potential tax consequences.

We expect to continue to have cash requirements to support working capital needs and capital expenditures, to pay interest and service debt and to pay dividends to shareholders quarterly. We believe we have the ability and sufficient capacity to meet these cash requirements by using available cash and internally generated funds and to borrow under our committed and uncommitted credit facilities.

Further, we plan to utilize a portion of the proceeds from the sale of our Valves & Controls business to retire a significant portion of outstanding debt, and thus reduce our future contractual obligations. We expect the sale of the Valves & Controls business to be completed in the second quarter of 2017, subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions.

Share repurchases

In December 2014, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of our ordinary shares up to a maximum dollar limit of $1.0 billion . The authorization expires on December 31, 2019 . There were no share repurchases during the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. As of March 31, 2017 , we had $800.0 million remaining available for share repurchases under this authorization.

Dividends

On February 21, 2017 the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.345 payable on May 5, 2017 to shareholders of record at the close of business on April 21, 2017. Additionally, on December 6, 2016, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.345 that was paid on February 10, 2017 to shareholders of record at the close of business on January 27, 2017 and approved a plan to increase the 2017 annual cash dividend to $1.38 , which is intended to be paid in four quarterly installments. As a result, the balance of dividends payable included in Other current liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets was $62.9 million and $61.8 million at March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively.

We paid dividends in the first three months of 2017 of $62.8 million , or $0.345 per ordinary share, compared with $60.1 million , or $0.33 per ordinary share, in the prior year period.

Under Irish law, the payment of future cash dividends and redemptions and repurchases of shares may be paid only out of Pentair plc's "distributable reserves" on its statutory balance sheet. Pentair plc is not permitted to pay dividends out of share capital, which includes share premiums. Distributable reserves may be created through the earnings of the Irish parent company and through a reduction in share capital approved by the Irish High Court. Distributable reserves are not linked to a U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") reported amount (e.g., retained earnings). As of December 31, 2016 , our distributable reserve balance was $9.4 billion .

Other financial measures

In addition to measuring our cash flow generation or usage based upon operating, investing and financing classifications included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, we also measure our free cash flow. We have a long-term goal to consistently generate free cash flow that equals or exceeds 100 percent conversion of adjusted net income. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that we use to assess our cash flow performance. We believe free cash flow is an important measure of operating performance because it provides us and our investors a measurement of cash generated from operations that is available to pay dividends, make acquisitions, repay debt and repurchase shares. In addition, free cash flow is used as a criterion to measure and pay compensation-based incentives. Our measure of free cash flow may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The following table is a reconciliation of free cash flow:
