CAUTIONARY STATEMENT

Certain statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “should,” “project” or “plan” or the negative thereof or similar words are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Those factors include, but are not limited to:

	•		actions taken by our competitors and our ability to effectively compete in the increasingly competitive global electric motor, power generation and mechanical motion control industries;

	•		our ability to develop new products based on technological innovation and the marketplace acceptance of new and existing products;

	•		fluctuations in commodity prices and raw material costs;

	•		our dependence on significant customers;

	•		our dependence on key suppliers and the potential effects of supply disruptions;

	•		infringement of our intellectual property by third parties, challenges to our intellectual property, and claims of infringement by us of third party technologies;

	•		increases in our overall debt levels as a result of acquisitions or otherwise and our ability to repay principal and interest on our outstanding debt;

	•		product liability and other litigation, or the failure of our products to perform as anticipated, particularly in high volume applications;

	•		difficulties consummating the pending acquisition of the Electrical Products Company of A.O. Smith Corporation that may have a negative impact on our results of operations;

	•		unanticipated costs or expenses that could be incurred relating to product warranty matters;

	•		economic changes in global markets where we do business, such as reduced demand for the products we sell, currency exchange rates, inflation rates, interest rates, recession, foreign government policies and other external factors that we cannot control;

	•		unanticipated liabilities of acquired businesses;

	•		cyclical downturns affecting the global market for capital goods;

	•		difficulties associated with managing foreign operations; and

	•		other risks and uncertainties including but not limited to those described in “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and from time to time in our reports filed with Securities and Exchange Commission.

Shareholders, potential investors, and other readers are urged to consider these factors in evaluating the forward-looking statements and cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are made only as of the date of this report, and we undertake no obligation to update these statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

DEBT AND BANK CREDIT FACILITIES

The Company’s indebtedness as of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011 was as follows (in thousands):


	July 2, 2011			January 1, 2011
Senior notes	$	250,000		$	250,000
Term loan		165,000			165,000

Less: Current maturities		(14,282	)		(8,637	)

Non-current portion	$	428,044		$	428,256

At July 2, 2011, the Company had $250.0 million of senior notes (the “Notes”) outstanding. The Notes were sold pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among the Company and the purchasers of the Notes. The Notes were issued and sold in two series: $150.0 million in Floating Rate Series 2007A Senior Notes, Tranche A, due August 23, 2014, and $100.0 million in Floating Rate Series 2007A Senior Notes, Tranche B, due August 23, 2017. The Notes bear interest at a margin over the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). These interest rates vary as LIBOR varies. At July 2, 2011, the interest rate of 0.9% was based on a margin over LIBOR.

On June 16, 2008, the Company entered into a Term Loan Agreement (“Term Loan”) with certain financial institutions, whereby the Company borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $165.0 million. The Term Loan matures in June 2013, and borrowings generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to a margin over LIBOR. The margin varies with the ratio of the Company’s total funded debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization

(“EBITDA”) as defined in the Term Loan. These interest rates also vary as LIBOR varies. At July 2, 2011, the interest rate of 0.9% was based on a margin over LIBOR.

On June 30, 2011, the Company entered into a new $500.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) that replaced its existing credit facility which was set to mature in July 2012. The Facility permits the Company to borrow at interest rates based upon a margin above LIBOR, which margin varies with the ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA as defined in the Facility. These interest rates also vary as LIBOR varies. The Company pays a commitment fee on the unused amount of the Facility, which also varies with the ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA. The Facility matures in June 2016.

The Notes, the Term Loan, and the Facility require the Company to meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. The Company was in compliance with all financial debt covenants as of July 2, 2011.

The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk. (See also Note 14 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.)

At July 2, 2011, other notes payable of approximately $27.3 million were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 6.0%.

9. PENSION PLANS

The Company’s net periodic defined benefit pension cost is comprised of the following components (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	July 2, 2011			July 3, 2010			July 2, 2011			July 3, 2010
Service cost	$	617		$	1,172		$	1,337		$	2,344
Interest cost		1,988			3,468			3,976			6,937
Expected return on plan assets		(1,828	)		(3,131	)		(3,656	)		(6,262	)
Amortization of prior service cost and net actuarial loss
		918			1,221			1,836			2,443

Net periodic benefit expense	$	1,695		$	2,730		$	3,493		$	5,462

The estimated net actuarial loss and prior service cost for defined benefit pension plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into net periodic benefit cost during the 2011 fiscal year is $3.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

During the first six months of 2011 and 2010, the Company contributed $1.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively, to defined benefit pension plans. The Company expects to contribute an additional $1.0 million, for total contributions of $2.2 million in 2011. The Company contributed a total of $4.1 million in 2010. The assumptions used in the valuation of the Company’s pension plans and in the target investment allocation have remained the same as those disclosed in the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 2, 2011.

10. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

The Company recognized approximately $4.4 million and $1.7 million in share-based compensation expense for the three month period ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, respectively. Share-based compensation expense for the six month period ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010 was $6.2 million and $3.1 million, respectively. The total excess income tax benefit recognized relating to share-based compensation for the six months ended July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010 was approximately $1.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively. The Company recognizes compensation expense on grants of share-based compensation awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each award. As of July 2, 2011, total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards was approximately $27.0 million, net of estimated forfeitures, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 3.1 years.

The Company was authorized as of July 2, 2011 to deliver up to 5.0 million shares of common stock upon exercise of non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options, or upon grant or in payment of stock appreciation rights, and restricted stock. Approximately 1.4 million shares were available for future grant or payment under the various plans at July 2, 2011.

Share-based Incentive Awards

The Company uses several forms of share-based incentive awards, including non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, and stock appreciation rights (“SARs”). All grants are made at prices equal to the fair market value of the stock on the grant dates, and expire ten years from the grant date. The Company values restricted stock awards at the closing market value of its common stock on the date of grant and restrictions generally lapse three years after the date of grant.

The majority of the Company’s annual share-based incentive awards are made in the fiscal second quarter. The per share weighted average fair value of share-based incentive awards granted in the May 2011 annual grant was $26.81. The fair

market value of the awards is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model and the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 2.6%; expected dividend yield of 1.0%; expected volatility of 35.5%; and an estimated life of 7.0 years.

A summary of share-based awards (options and SARs) as of July 2, 2011 follows below. Forfeitures of share-based awards were immaterial.


			Wtd. Avg.		Wtd. Avg. Remaining		Aggregate Intrinsic
	Shares		Exercise Price		Contractual Term (years)		Value (in millions)
Number of shares:
Outstanding		1,737,075	$	48.74		7.1	$	35.6
Exercisable		792,575		38.38		5.4		24.2

Restricted Stock

As of July 2, 2011, the Company had 231,730 shares of restricted stock outstanding with a weighted average grant date fair value of $61.26 and a weighted average life of 2.3 years. The Company values restricted stock awards at the closing market value of its common stock on the date of grant and restrictions generally lapse three years after the date of the grant. In the first six months of 2011 30,350 shares of restricted stock vested with a weighted average fair value of $43.56 per share, 81,203 shares of restricted stock granted with a weighted average fair value of $72.06 per share, and 300 shares of restricted stock forfeited with a weighted average fair value of $52.01 per share.

11. INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months ended July 2, 2011 was 28.6% versus 31.9% for the three months ended July 3, 2010. The effective tax rate for the six months ended July 2, 2011 was 30.0% versus 31.8% in the prior period. The change in the effective rates was driven by changes in the global distribution of income.

As of both July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011, the Company had approximately $5.5 million of unrecognized tax benefits, all of which would affect its effective tax rate if recognized. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in income tax expense.

The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states and foreign jurisdictions. Federal tax returns from 2007 through 2010 and various state tax returns remain subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities.

12. EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)

The numerator for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share is Net Income Attributable to Regal Beloit Corporation. The denominator is computed as follows (in thousands):

The “Effect of dilutive securities” represents the dilution impact of equity awards and convertible notes that were fully converted during 2010. The dilutive effect of the convertible notes was approximately 0.2 million shares and 0.5 million shares for the three and six months ended July 3, 2010, respectively.

Options for common shares where the exercise price was above the market price at July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010 totaling approximately 0.4 million and 0.3 million shares have been excluded from the calculation of the effect of dilutive securities as the effect of such options is anti-dilutive.

13. CONTINGENCIES

On July 30, 2009, the Company filed a response and counterclaims to an action filed by Nordyne, Inc. (“Nordyne”) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri in which action Nordyne is seeking a judgment declaring that neither Nordyne’s G7 furnace systems nor its iQ Drive 23-seer air conditioning systems infringe on the Company’s ECM (electronically commutated motor) systems patents (U.S. Patent No. 5,592,058) (“the ‘058 Patent”) and/or that the ‘058 Patent is invalid. In its response and counterclaims against Nordyne the Company is seeking a judgment that the ‘058 Patent is valid and that Nordyne has, in fact, infringed and continues to infringe the ‘058 Patent by making, using, offering for sale and selling its G7 furnace systems and iQ Drive 23-seer air conditioning systems. The Company has also requested

the U.S. District Court to enjoin Nordyne and all persons working in concert with Nordyne from further infringement of the ‘058 Patent and to award the Company compensatory and other damages caused by such infringement. The Company intends to defend its intellectual property vigorously against the claims asserted by Nordyne and against any infringement by Nordyne or any other person. The Company does not currently believe that the litigation will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or its results of operations.

One of the Company’s subsidiaries that it acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units marketed by a third party. These claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. Based on the current facts, the Company does not believe these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on its results of operations or financial condition. However, the Company cannot predict the outcome of these claims, or the nature or extent of remedial actions, if any, it may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field. As a result, it cannot estimate a range of reasonably possible losses associated with these matters, some of which could be significant.

The Company is, from time to time, party to litigation that arises in the normal course of its business operations, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, employment and other litigation matters. The Company’s products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject us to claims that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. The Company accrues for anticipated costs in defending against such lawsuits in amounts that we believe are adequate, and the Company does not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or its results of operations.

14. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by using derivative instruments are commodity price risk, currency exchange, and interest rate risk. Forward contracts on certain commodities are entered into to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of materials used in the Company’s manufacturing process. Forward contracts on certain currencies are entered into to manage forecasted cash flows in certain foreign currencies. Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company’s floating rate borrowings.

The Company must recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the statement of financial position. Accordingly, the Company designates commodity forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases of commodities, currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency cash flows and interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of forecasted LIBOR-based interest payments. There were no significant collateral deposits on derivative financial instruments as of July 2, 2011.

Cash flow hedges

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income or loss and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or changes in market value of derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized in current earnings.

At July 2, 2011, the Company had an additional $3.4 million, net of tax, of derivative gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At July 3, 2010, the Company had an additional ($0.4) million, net of tax, of derivative losses on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that was realized in earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

As of July 2, 2011, the Company had outstanding the following commodity forward contracts (with maturities extending through September 2012) to hedge forecasted purchases of commodities (in millions):

15. FAIR VALUE

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 (exit price). The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy:


Level 1		Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2		Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or

		Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or

		Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability

Level 3		Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

The Company uses the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011 (in millions):

The Other Noncurrent Liabilities described above are comprised entirely of the Deferred Contingent Purchase Price of two of the Company’s acquisitions as discussed in Note 3, and are measured using Level 3 inputs. The fair value was determined using valuation techniques, including discounted cash flows, comparable transactions, and/or comparable company analyses.

16. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

As part of the consideration paid for the acquisition of Elco on November 1, 2010, the Company assumed $22.3 million payable to an entity that is affiliated with our Elco Group B.V. joint venture partner resulting from bankruptcy proceeding involving Elco. The amount is payable in three remaining semi-annual payments ending in 2012. During the first six months of 2011, $5.6 million was paid by the Company. The Company has included the current amounts in Other Accrued Expenses and the long-term amount in Other Noncurrent Liabilities.

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On July 14, 2011, the Company issued $423 million in senior unsecured notes in a private placement. The notes were issued in five tranches with maturities from seven to twelve years and carry fixed interest rates between 4.1% and 5.1%. The proceeds from the issuance of the notes will be available to finance a portion of the pending acquisition of the Electrical Products Company from A.O.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Item 2 to “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” refer collectively to Regal Beloit Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Overview

Global economic conditions continued to reflect sluggish growth trends in the second quarter 2011. Sales of high efficiency products continued to show above average growth rates, supported by the net economic impact to the end user and, in certain cases, by tax credits and government regulations requiring higher energy efficiency ratings on certain types of motors.

Net sales for the second quarter 2011 increased 16.7% to $681.8 million compared to $584.2 million in the second quarter 2010. Net sales for the second quarter 2011 included $60.0 million of incremental net sales from the acquired businesses.

Net Income Attributable to Regal Beloit Corporation decreased 17.7% to $34.3 million for the second quarter 2011 compared to $41.7 million for the second quarter 2010. Diluted earnings per share decreased to $0.88 for the second quarter 2011 compared to $1.07 for the second quarter 2010. The decrease was primarily driven by an incremental $28.0 million (or $0.44 diluted earnings per share) in accrued warranty costs due to a production flaw, which has been corrected, in certain standard motors produced in one of our facilities during a limited period in 2011.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal source of liquidity is operating cash flow. In addition, other significant factors affecting our liquidity management include working capital levels, capital expenditures, dividends, acquisitions, availability of debt financing and the ability to attract long-term capital on acceptable terms.

Cash flow provided by operating activities (“operating cash flow”) was $109.6 million for the six months ended July 2, 2011, a $9.9 million increase from the six months ended July 3, 2010. The increase was driven by a $7.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization. The lower net income for the six months ended July 2, 2011 was offset by a lower amount utilized in working capital compared to the six months ended July 3, 2010.

Cash flow used in investing activities was $4.4 million for the first six months of 2011, a $146.0 million decrease from the first six months of 2010. Sales of investment securities were $56.0 in the first six months of 2011 versus the net purchases of investment securities of ($56.3) in the first six months of 2010. Capital expenditures were $38.5 million which included the purchase of land related to our factory in Faridabad, India which was previously leased. Business acquisitions were $22.1 million for the first six months of 2011 compared to $75.9 million in the first six months of 2010.

Cash flow used in financing activities for the first six months of 2011 was $7.2 million compared to cash flow used of $58.0 million in the first six months of 2010, primarily due to the $38.7 million repayment of convertible debt in 2010.

Our working capital was $749.2 million at July 2, 2011, an increase of 8.8% from $688.7 million at January 1, 2011. At July 2, 2011 our current ratio, the ratio of our current assets to current liabilities, was 2.5:1 compared to 2.7:1 at January 1, 2011.

The following table presents selected financial information and statistics as of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011 (in millions):


	July 2, 2011		January 1, 2011
Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	275.3	$	174.5

Trade Receivables, Net		410.6		331.0
Inventories, Net		436.4		390.6
Working Capital		749.2		688.7

Our Cash and Cash Equivalents totaled $275.3 million at July 2, 2011. The majority of our cash held by foreign subsidiaries could be used in our domestic operations if necessary. There are no current trends, demands or uncertainties that we believe are reasonably likely to require repatriation or to have a material impact on our ability to fund U.S. operations.

At July 2, 2011, we had $250.0 million of senior notes (the “Notes”) outstanding. The Notes were sold pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among us and the purchasers of the Notes. The Notes were issued and sold in two series: $150.0 million in Floating Rate Series 2007A Senior Notes, Tranche A, due August 23, 2014, and $100.0 million in Floating Rate Series 2007A Senior Notes, Tranche B, due August 23, 2017. The Notes bear interest at a margin over the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). These interest rates vary as LIBOR varies. At July 2, 2011, the interest rate of 0.9% was based on a margin over LIBOR.

On June 16, 2008, we entered into a Term Loan Agreement (“Term Loan”) with certain financial institutions, pursuant to which we borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $165.0 million. The Term Loan matures in June 2013, and borrowings generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to a margin over LIBOR which varies with the ratio of our total debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) as defined in the Term Loan. These interest rates also vary as LIBOR varies. At July 2, 2011, the interest rate of 0.9% was based on a margin over LIBOR.

On June 30, 2011, we entered into a new $500.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) that replaced our existing credit facility which was set to mature in July 2012. The Facility permits us to borrow at interest rates based upon a margin above LIBOR, which margin varies with the ratio of total funded debt to EBITDA as defined in the Facility. These interest rates also vary as LIBOR varies. We pay a commitment fee on the unused amount of the Facility, which also varies with the ratio of our total funded debt to our EBITDA. The Facility matures in June 2016.

The Notes, the Term Loan and the Facility require us to meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. We were in compliance with all financial debt covenants as of July 2, 2011.

EPC Acquisition

We plan to fund the $700.0 million cash consideration in the EPC acquisition with a combination of existing cash, borrowings under the Facility and the 2011 Notes as described below.

On July 14, 2011, we issued $423.0 million in senior unsecured notes (the “2011 Notes”) in a private placement. The notes were issued in five tranches with maturities from seven to twelve years and carry fixed interest rates between 4.1% and 5.1%. The proceeds from the issuance of notes will be available to finance a portion of the pending acquisition of the Electrical Products Company from A.O. Smith Corporation (See also Notes 3 and 17 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk relating to our operations due to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices of purchased raw materials. We manage the exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating and financing activities and derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, commodity cash flow hedges and foreign currency forward exchange contracts. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to clearly defined policies and procedures, which strictly prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative purposes.

All hedges are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with changes in fair value recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (“AOCI”) in each accounting period. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value, if any, is recorded in earnings in the period of change.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to interest rate risk on certain of our short-term and long-term debt obligations used to finance our operations and acquisitions. At July 2, 2011, net of interest rate swaps, we had $258.8 million of fixed rate debt and $183.5 million of variable rate debt. As a result, interest rate changes in variable rate debt impact future earnings and cash flow assuming other factors are constant. We utilize interest rate swaps to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from exposure to interest rate risk on forecasted variable rate interest payments. We have LIBOR-based floating rate borrowings, which expose us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 10% change in our weighted average borrowing rate on outstanding variable rate debt at July 2, 2011, would result in a change in after-tax annualized earnings of approximately $0.1 million.

We have entered into pay fixed/receive LIBOR-based floating interest rate swaps to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk. These interest rate swaps have been designated as cash flow hedges against forecasted LIBOR-based interest payments. Details regarding these instruments, as of July 2, 2011, are as follows:

As of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011, the interest rate swap liability of ($38.4) million and ($39.1) million, respectively, was included in Hedging Obligations. The unrealized loss on the effective portion of the contracts net of tax of ($23.8) million and ($24.2) million as of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011, respectively, was recorded in AOCI.

Foreign Currency Risk

We are also exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Our objective is to minimize our exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating activities and the utilization of foreign currency exchange contracts to manage our exposure on the transactions denominated in currencies other than the applicable functional currency. Contracts are executed with creditworthy banks and are denominated in currencies of major industrial countries. We do not hedge our exposure to the translation of reported results of foreign subsidiaries from local currency to United States dollars.

As of July 2, 2011, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of $9.4 million, $2.6 million, and ($0.7) million, are recorded in Prepaid Expenses, Other Noncurrent Assets, and Accrued Expenses, respectively. As of January 1, 2011, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of $7.3 million, $1.4 million, ($0.1) million, and ($0.1) million are recorded in Prepaid Expenses, Other Noncurrent Assets, Accrued Expenses, and Hedging Obligations, respectively. The unrealized gain on the effective portion of the contracts of $7.3 million net of tax, and $5.1 million net of tax, as of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011, was recorded in AOCI. At July 2, 2011, we had an additional $1.2 million, net of tax, of currency gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items

impact earnings. At January 1, 2011, we had an additional immaterial amount of derivative currency gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that were realized in 2011 earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

The following table quantifies the outstanding foreign exchange contracts intended to hedge non-U.S. dollar denominated receivables and payables and the corresponding impact on the value of these instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% appreciation/depreciation of their counter currency on July 2, 2011 (dollars in millions):


						Foreign Exchange
						Gain/(Loss) From:
	Notional		Fair			10% Appreciation of		10% Depreciation of
Currency	Amount		Value			Counter Currency		Counter Currency
Mexican Peso	$	95.7	$	11.1		$	9.6	$	(9.6	)

Australian Dollar		9.5		(0.4	)		1.0		(1.0	)
Thai Baht		3.6		—			0.4		(0.4	)

Gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would be offset by gains and losses on the underlying receivables and payables.

Commodity Price Risk

We periodically enter into commodity hedging transactions to reduce the impact of changing prices for certain commodities such as copper and aluminum based upon forecasted purchases of such commodities. These transactions are designated as cash flow hedges and the contract terms of commodity hedge instruments generally mirror those of the hedged item, providing a high degree of risk reduction and correlation.

Derivative commodity assets (liabilities) of $14.7 million, $0.2 million, and ($0.1) are recorded in Prepaid Expenses, Other Noncurrent Assets, and Accrued Expenses, respectively, at July 2, 2011. Derivative commodity assets (liabilities) of $24.9 million, $4.2 million, and ($0.1) million are recorded in Prepaid Expenses, Other Noncurrent Assets, and Accrued Expenses, respectively, at January 1, 2011. The unrealized gain on the effective portion of the contracts of $9.0 million net of tax and $17.8 million net of tax, as of July 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011, respectively, was recorded in AOCI. At July 2, 2011, we had an additional $2.2 million, net of tax, of derivative commodity gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At January 1, 2011, we had an additional $4.1 million, net of tax, of derivative commodity gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that were realized in 2011 earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

The following table quantifies the outstanding commodity contracts intended to hedge raw material commodity prices and the corresponding impact on the value of these instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% appreciation/depreciation of their prices on July 2, 2011 (dollars in millions):


					Foreign Exchange
					Gain/(Loss) From:
	Notional		Fair		10% Increase of		10% Decrease of
Commodity	Amount		Value		Commodity Prices		Commodity Prices
Copper	$	145.0	$	14.5	$	14.5	$	(14.5	)
Aluminum		3.0		0.3		0.3		(0.3	)
Natural Gas		0.5		—		0.1		(0.1	)
Zinc		0.2		—		—		—

Gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would be offset by the actual prices of the commodities.

The net AOCI balance of ($4.1) million loss at July 2, 2011 includes $8.1 million of net current deferred gains expected to be realized in the next twelve months.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial

Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that (a) information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and (b) information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Items 4 and 5 are inapplicable and have been omitted.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On July 30, 2009, we filed a response and counterclaims to an action filed by Nordyne, Inc. (“Nordyne”) in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri in which action Nordyne is seeking a judgment declaring that neither Nordyne’s G7 furnace systems nor its iQ Drive 23-seer air conditioning systems infringe on the our ECM (electronically commutated motor) systems patents (U.S. Patent No. 5,592,058) (“the ‘058 Patent”) and/or that the ‘058 Patent is invalid. In its response and counterclaims against Nordyne we are seeking a judgment that the ‘058 Patent is valid and that Nordyne has, in fact, infringed and continues to infringe the ‘058 Patent by making, using, offering for sale and selling its G7 furnace systems and iQ Drive 23-seer air conditioning systems. We have also requested the U.S. District Court to enjoin Nordyne and all persons working in concert with Nordyne from further infringement of the ‘058 Patent and to award us compensatory and other damages caused by such infringement. We intend to defend our intellectual property vigorously against the claims asserted by Nordyne and against any infringement by Nordyne or any other person. We do not currently believe that the litigation will have a material effect on our financial position or its results of operations.

One of our subsidiaries that we acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units marketed by a third party. These claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. Based on the current facts, we do not believe these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. However, we cannot predict the outcome of these claims, or the nature or extent of remedial actions, if any, it may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field. As a result, we cannot estimate a range of reasonably possible losses associated with these matters, some of which could be significant.

We are, from time to time, party to litigation that arises in the normal course of our business operations, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, employment and other litigation matters. Our products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject us to claims that the use of our products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. We accrue for anticipated costs in defending against such lawsuits in amounts that we believe are adequate, and we do not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on our financial position or our results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The business and financial results of the Company are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. The risks and uncertainties have not changed materially from those reported in Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 2, 2011, as updated in Part II, Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on May 11, 2011.
