NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Background and Basis of Presentation

Background

Xylem Inc. ("Xylem" or the "Company") is a leading equipment and service provider for water and wastewater applications with a broad portfolio of products and services addressing the full cycle of water, from collection, distribution and use to the return of water to the environment. Xylem was incorporated in Indiana on May 4, 2011.

Xylem operates in two segments, Water Infrastructure and Applied Water. The Water Infrastructure segment focuses on the transportation, treatment and testing of water, offering a range of products including water and wastewater pumps, treatment and testing equipment, and controls and systems. The Applied Water segment serves many of the primary uses of water and focuses on the residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural markets. The Applied Water segment’s major products include pumps, valves, heat exchangers, controls and dispensing equipment.

Hereinafter, except as otherwise indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, "Xylem," "we," "us," "our" and the "Company" refer to Xylem Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Basis of Presentation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect our financial position and results of operations in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). All transactions between our businesses have been eliminated.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. We consistently applied the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 (" 2013 Annual Report") in preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, with the exception of accounting standard updates described in Note 2. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2013 Annual Report. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are revised as additional information becomes available. Estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to, postretirement obligations and assets, revenue recognition, income tax contingency accruals and valuation allowances, goodwill impairment testing and contingent liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Additionally, our interim condensed consolidated financial statements may not be indicative of our future performance.

Our quarterly financial periods end on the Saturday closest to the last day of the calendar quarter, except for the fourth quarter which ends on December 31. For ease of presentation, the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein are described as ending on the last day of the calendar quarter.

Note 2 . Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance related to the recognition of compensation on employee share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period. The standard states that the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. Compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the periods for which the service has already been rendered. If the performance target becomes probable of being achieved before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. We are currently evaluating the impact of the guidance, including possible transition alternatives, on our financial condition and results of operations.

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The guidance outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of the model is that an entity recognizes revenue to portray the transfer of goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard also expands disclosure requirements regarding revenue recognition. This guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact of the guidance, including possible transition alternatives, on our financial condition and results of operations.

In April 2014, the FASB issued guidance related to the reporting of discontinued operations. The guidance states that the disposal of a business or operation is required to be reported as discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that will have a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. The guidance also expands disclosures about discontinued operations and the disposal of significant businesses that did not qualify for discontinued operations presentation. This standard is effective prospectively, for disposals (or businesses that qualify as “held for sale”) that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and interim periods within those years. The impact of this guidance on our financial condition and results of operations will depend on the occurrence and the significance of disposal transactions that meet the criteria described above.

In January 2014, the FASB issued guidance related to service concession arrangements. A service concession arrangement is an arrangement between a public-sector entity grantor and an operating entity under which the operating entity operates the grantor's infrastructure (for example, airports, roads and bridges). The guidance states that service concession arrangements should not be accounted for under the guidance of Topic 840, Leases, but rather other guidance as deemed appropriate. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Opening retained earnings will be adjusted in the year of adoption to reflect the cumulative historical impact of any arrangements existing at the date of adoption and the new guidance will then be applied to the financial statements on a prospective basis. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Recently Adopted Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit. The guidance requires that an unrecognized tax benefit or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit be presented as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. If an applicable deferred tax asset is not available or a company does not expect to use the applicable deferred tax asset, the unrecognized tax benefit should be

presented in an entity's financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with a deferred tax asset. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

In March 2013, the FASB issued guidance on the release of a cumulative translation adjustment ("CTA") related to an entity's investment in a foreign entity into income. The guidance requires such CTA to be released when there has been a: (1) sale of a subsidiary or group of net assets within a foreign entity and the sale represents the substantially complete liquidation of the investment in the foreign entity, (2) loss of a controlling financial interest in an investment in a foreign entity or (3) step acquisition for a foreign entity. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. The impact of the guidance on our financial condition and results of operations will depend on the occurrence and the significance of transactions that meet the criteria described above.

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance related to the measurement and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements. The new guidance requires companies to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements as the sum of: (1) the amount the company agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among co-obligors and (2) any additional amount the company expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. Additionally, the new guidance requires the disclosure of a description of the joint and several arrangement and the total outstanding amount of the obligation for all joint parties. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

Note 3. Acquisitions

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 , we did not make any acquisitions. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 , we spent $84 million ( $81 million , net of cash acquired) on acquisitions that were not material individually or in the aggregate to our results of operations or financial position.

Note 4. Restructuring Charges

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , we recognized restructuring charges of $3 million and $18 million , respectively. We incurred these charges primarily in an effort to reposition our European and North American business to optimize our cost structure and improve our operational efficiency and effectiveness. The charges relate to the reduction in structural costs, including the elimination of headcount and consolidation of facilities within both our Water Infrastructure and Applied Water segments. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 we recognized restructuring charges of $20 million and $25 million , respectively, which related to the reduction in structural costs, including the elimination of headcount and consolidation of facilities within both our Water Infrastructure and Applied Water segments.

The following table presents the components of restructuring expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 .



	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
(in millions)	2014		2013		2014		2013

The following table displays a rollforward of the restructuring accruals, presented on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets within accrued and other current liabilities, and other non-current accrued liabilities, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 .

Actual reductions	(172	)	(233	)
Planned reductions - June 30	112		138

months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively. We currently expect these actions to continue through the second quarter of 2015.

Total expected costs associated with actions that commenced during 2013 are approximately $33 million for Water Infrastructure. Approximately $31 million of the expected cost was incurred in 2013, less than $1 million and $1 million was incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $1 million is expected to be incurred through the end of 2014. Total expected costs associated with actions that commenced during 2013 are approximately $10 million for Applied Water. Approximately $8 million of the expected cost was incurred in 2013 and approximately $2 million is expected to be incurred through the end of 2014.

Note 5. Income Taxes

Our quarterly provision for income taxes is measured using an estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for discrete items within periods presented. The comparison of our effective tax rate between periods is significantly impacted by the level and mix of earnings and losses by tax jurisdiction, foreign income tax rate differentials and amount of permanent book-to-tax differences.

The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was $18 million at an effective tax rate of 17.2% , compared to $11 million at an effective tax rate of 20.3% for the same period in 2013 . The income tax provision for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $30 million at an effective tax rate of 17.9% , compared to $21 million at an effective tax rate of 19.7% for the same period in 2013 . The effective tax rate was lower than the statutory rate in each period primarily due to geographic mix of earnings. Additionally, the effective tax rate was lower for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same periods in 2013 primarily due to favorable changes in the geographic mix of earnings.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

We recognize tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized from such positions are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

The amount of unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2014 was $30 million which, if ultimately recognized, will reduce our annual effective tax rate. We do not believe that the unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change within the next twelve months .

We classify interest expense relating to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of other non-operating expense, net and tax penalties as a component of income tax expense in our Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. As of June 30, 2014 , we had $1 million of interest accrued for unrecognized tax benefits.

Note 6. Earnings Per Share

The following is a reconciliation of the shares used in calculating basic and diluted net earnings per share.

(a)	Restricted stock awards containing rights to non-forfeitable dividends that participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders are considered participating securities for purposes of computing earnings per share.

(b)

Incremental shares from stock options, restricted stock and performance share units are computed by the treasury stock method. The weighted average shares listed below were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented or were otherwise excluded under the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method calculates dilution assuming the exercise of all in-the-money options and vesting of restricted stock and performance share awards, reduced by the repurchase of shares with the proceeds from the assumed exercises, unrecognized compensation expense for outstanding awards and the estimated tax benefit of the assumed exercises. Performance share units will be included in the treasury stock calculation of diluted earnings per share upon achievement of underlying performance conditions. See Note 14 , "Share-Based Compensation Plans" for further detail on the performance share units.



	Three Months Ended		Six Months Ended

Note 9. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Changes in the carrying value of goodwill by reportable segment for the six months ended June 30, 2014 are as follows:



(in millions)	Water Infrastructure		Applied Water			Total
Balance as of January 1, 2014	$	1,149	$	569		$	1,718
Activity in 2014
Foreign currency and other	2		(1		)	1
Balance as of June 30, 2014	$	1,151	$	568		$	1,719

Based on the results of our latest annual impairment tests, we determined that no impairment of goodwill existed as of the measurement date in 2013 . However, future goodwill impairment tests could result in a charge to earnings. We will continue to evaluate goodwill on an annual basis as of the beginning of our fourth quarter and whenever events and changes in circumstances indicate there may be a potential impairment.

Other Intangible Assets

Information regarding our other intangible assets is as follows:



	June 30, 2014							December 31, 2013
(in millions)	Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization			Net Intangibles		Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization			Net Intangibles

Based on the results of our most recent annual impairment tests, we recorded a $2 million charge related to three trade names within our Water Infrastructure segment in the fourth quarter 2013 . As of June 30, 2014 , no events or circumstances have occurred that indicate an additional impairment has occurred. We will continue to monitor the indefinite-lived intangible assets on an annual basis as of the beginning of our fourth quarter and whenever events and changes in circumstances indicate there may be a potential impairment.

Amortization expense related to finite-lived intangible assets was $9 million and $18 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively, and $10 million and $19 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 , respectively.

Note 10. Derivative Financial Instruments

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions and principally manage our exposures to these risks through management of our core business activities. Certain of our foreign operations expose us to fluctuations of foreign interest rates and exchange rates that may impact revenues, expenses, cash receipts and payments. We enter into derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the amount of certain cash flows in terms of the functional currency of the business unit with that exposure.

Cash Flow Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk

We are exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against our functional currencies. We use foreign currency derivatives including currency forward agreements to manage our exposure to fluctuations in the various exchange rates. Currency forward agreements involve fixing the foreign currency exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date.

Certain business units within our segments with exposure to foreign currency exchange risks have designated certain currency forward agreements as cash flow hedges of forecasted intercompany inventory purchases and sales.

Listed in the table below are the outstanding foreign currency derivatives that were used to hedge foreign exchange risks as of June 30, 2014 .



(in millions; except number of instruments)

(a)	Effective portion

As of June 30, 2014 , $7 million of the net unrealized losses on cash flow hedges is expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a cash flow hedge is excluded from effectiveness testing and is recognized immediately in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Income Statements. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , the amounts were not material.

Long-term debt	$	1,199		$	1,199
Total debt	$	1,242		$	1,241

(a)

The fair value of our Senior Notes (as defined below) was determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities, which are considered Level 1 inputs. The fair value of our Senior Notes due 2016 (as defined below) was $631 million and $635 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 , respectively. The fair value of our Senior Notes due 2021 (as defined below) was $652 million and $629 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 , respectively.


(b)	The unamortized discount is recognized as a reduction in the carrying value of the Senior Notes in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and is being amortized to interest expense in our Condensed Consolidated Income Statements over the expected remaining terms of the Senior Notes.

Senior Notes

On September 20, 2011, we issued 3.550% Senior Notes of $600 million aggregate principal amount due September 2016 (the "Senior Notes due 2016") and 4.875% Senior Notes of $600 million aggregate principal amount due October 2021 (the "Senior Notes due 2021") and together with the Senior Notes due 2016 (the "Senior Notes").

The Senior Notes include covenants which restrict our ability, subject to exceptions, to incur debt secured by liens and engage in sale and leaseback transactions, as well as provide for customary events of default (subject, in certain cases, to receipt of notice of default and/or customary grace and cure periods). We may redeem the Senior Notes, as applicable, in whole or in part, at any time at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus a make-whole premium. As of June 30, 2014 , we were in compliance with all covenants. If a change of control triggering event (as defined in the Senior Notes indenture) occurs, we will be required to make an offer to purchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

Interest on the Senior Notes due 2016 is payable on March 20 and September 20 of each year. Interest on the Senior Notes due 2021 is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year.

Four Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility

Effective October 31, 2011, Xylem and its subsidiaries entered into a Four Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The Credit Facility provides for an aggregate principal amount of up to $600 million of: (i) a competitive advance borrowing option which will be provided on an uncommitted competitive advance basis through an auction mechanism (the "competitive loans"), (ii) revolving extensions of credit (the "revolving loans") outstanding at any time and (iii) the issuance of letters of credit in a face amount not in excess of $100 million outstanding at any time.

At our election, the interest rate per annum applicable to the competitive advances will be based on either (i) a Eurodollar rate determined by reference to LIBOR, plus an applicable margin offered by the lender making such loans and accepted by us or (ii) a fixed percentage rate per annum specified by the lender making such loans. At our election, the interest rate per annum applicable to the revolving loans will be based on either (i) a Eurodollar rate determined by reference to LIBOR, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements, plus an applicable margin or (ii) a fluctuating rate of interest determined by reference to the greatest of: (a) the prime rate of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., (b) the U.S. Federal Funds effective rate plus half of 1% or (c) the Eurodollar rate determined by reference to LIBOR, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements, in each case, plus an applicable margin.

In accordance with the terms, we may not exceed a maximum leverage ratio of 3.50 (based on a ratio of total debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) throughout the term. As of June 30, 2014 , we were in compliance with all covenants. The Credit Facility also contains limitations on, among other things, incurring debt, granting liens, and entering sale and leaseback transactions. In addition, the Credit Facility contains other terms and conditions such as customary representations and warranties, additional covenants and customary events of default.

As of June 30, 2014 , the Credit Facility remains undrawn.

Research and Development Facility Agreement

On December 4, 2013, the Company amended and restated its Risk Sharing Finance Facility Agreement (the "R&D Facility Agreement") with The European Investment Bank (the "EIB") to add an additional borrower under the facility. The facility provides an aggregate principal amount of up to €120 million (approximately $163 million ) to finance research projects and infrastructure development in the European Union. The Company's wholly owned subsidiaries in Luxembourg, Xylem Holdings S.á r.l. and Xylem International S.á r.l., are the borrowers under the R&D Facility Agreement. The obligations of the borrowers under the R&D Facility Agreement are guaranteed by the Company under an Amended and Restated Deed of Guarantee, dated as of December 4, 2013, in favor of the EIB. The funds are available to finance research and development projects during the period from 2013 through 2016 at the Company's R&D facilities in Sweden, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, Austria, Norway and Hungary.

Under the R&D Facility Agreement, the borrower can draw loans on or before June 14, 2015 with a maturity of no longer than 12 years. The R&D Facility Agreement provides for Fixed Rate loans and Floating Rate loans. The interest rate per annum applicable to Fixed Rate loans is at a fixed percentage rate per annum specified by the EIB which includes the applicable margin. The interest rate per annum applicable to Floating Rate loans is at the rate determined by reference to EURIBOR for loans drawn in Euros and LIBOR for loans drawn in Pounds Sterling or U.S. Dollars, plus an applicable spread specified by the EIB which includes the applicable margin. The applicable margin for both Fixed Rate loans and Floating Rate loans is determined by reference to the credit rating of the Company.

In accordance with the terms of the R&D Facility Agreement, we may not exceed a maximum leverage ratio of 3.50 (based on a ratio of total debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) throughout the term. As of June 30, 2014 , we were in compliance with all covenants. The R&D Facility Agreement also contains limitations on, among other things, incurring debt, granting liens, and entering into sale and leaseback transactions. In addition, the R&D Facility Agreement contains other terms and conditions, such as customary representations and warranties, additional covenants and customary events of default.

As of June 30, 2014 , $38 million was outstanding under the R&D Facility Agreement. Although the borrowing term for this arrangement is for five years, we have classified it as short-term debt on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet since we intend to repay this obligation in less than one year.

Note 13. Postretirement Benefit Plans

The following table provides the components of net periodic benefit cost for our defined benefit pension plans, disaggregated by domestic and international plans.

The total net periodic benefit cost for other postretirement employee benefit plans was $2 million and $3 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively, including amounts recognized in other comprehensive income of $1 million for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively.

We contributed $22 million and $21 million to postretirement benefit plans during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively. Additional contributions ranging between approximately $14 million and $24 million are expected during the remainder of 2014 .

Note 14 . Share-Based Compensation Plans

Share-based compensation expense was $5 million and $9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively, and $6 million and $12 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 , respectively. The unamortized compensation expense related to our stock options, restricted stock and performance based shares was $8 million , $21 million and $4 million , respectively, at June 30, 2014 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 , 2.0 and 2.4 years, respectively. The amount of cash received from the exercise of stock options was $17 million and $1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively.

On March 17, 2014, the Company named Patrick K. Decker as the new President and Chief Executive Officer of Xylem Inc. As part of Mr. Decker's employment agreement, he was awarded 165,584 stock options, 40,342 restricted stock and 40,342 performance-based shares. The award was granted subject to the approval of the Xylem Omnibus Incentive Plan, which was obtained at the annual meeting of shareholders in May 2014. All share and associated expense amounts are included in activity for the second quarter of 2014 .

Stock Option Grants

The following is a summary of the changes in outstanding stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2014 :



(shares in thousands)	Shares		Weighted Average Exercise Price / Share		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (Years)
Outstanding at January 1, 2014	3,504		$	26.80	6.4
Granted	538		$	38.16	10.0
Exercised	(590	)	$	27.98	4.4
Forfeited	(64	)	$	26.05	5.9
Outstanding at June 30, 2014	3,388		$	28.42	6.8
Options exercisable at June 30, 2014	1,929		$	26.84	5.5
Vested and expected to vest as of June 30, 2014	3,262		$	28.18	6.7

The aggregate intrinsic value of the outstanding, exercisable and vested and expected to vest stock options as of June 30, 2014 was $37 million , $24 million and $36 million , respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised (which is the amount by which the stock price exceeded the exercise price of the options on the date of exercise) during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $6 million .

Stock Option Fair Value

The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the binomial lattice pricing model which incorporates multiple and variable assumptions over time, including assumptions such as employee exercise patterns, stock price volatility and changes in dividends. The following are weighted-average assumptions for 2014 .



Dividend yield	1.34		%
Volatility	28.49		%
Risk-free interest rate	1.82		%
Expected term (in years)	5.61
Weighted-average fair value / share	$	9.72

Expected volatility is calculated based on a weighted analysis of historic and implied volatility measures for a set of peer companies and Xylem. We use historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination behavior within the valuation model. Employee groups and option characteristics are considered separately for valuation purposes. The expected term represents an estimate of the period of time options are expected to remain outstanding. The expected term provided above represents the weighted average of expected behavior for certain groups of employees who have historically exhibited different behavior. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of option grant.

Restricted Stock Grants

The following is a summary of restricted stock activity for the six months ended June 30, 2014 :



(shares in thousands)	Shares		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value /Share

Note 15. Capital Stock

As announced on August 21, 2013, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $250 million in shares with no expiration date. The program's objective is to deploy our capital in a manner that benefits our shareholders and maintains our focus on growth. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , we repurchased 1.3 million and 2.6 million shares for $50 million and $100 million , respectively, under this program. There are up to $100 million in shares that may still be purchased under this plan as of June 30, 2014 .

As announced on August 20, 2012, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 2.0 million shares of common stock with no expiration date. The program's objective is to offset dilution associated with various Xylem employee stock plans by acquiring shares in the open market from time to time. There were no shares repurchased under this program during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 . There were 0.1 million and 0.6 million shares repurchased for $3 million and $17 million under this program during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 . There are up to 1.0 million shares that may still be purchased under this plan as of June 30, 2014 .

Aside from the aforementioned repurchase programs, we repurchased less than 0.1 million shares in both periods for less than $1 million and $1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively, in relation to settlement of employee tax withholding obligations due as a result of the vesting of restricted stock. Likewise, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 , we repurchased less than 0.1 million shares in both periods for less than $1 million and $1 million , respectively.

Note 17 . Commitments and Contingencies

General

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our businesses, including acquisitions and divestitures, intellectual property matters, product liability and personal injury claims, employment and pension matters, government and commercial contract disputes.

We are currently involved in litigation relating to a purchase price dispute with the minority shareholders arising from one of our historical acquisitions. The court announced its decision to increase the purchase price to be paid to such minority shareholders, and the parties are currently in the process of negotiating a settlement.

From time to time, claims may be asserted against Xylem alleging injury caused by any of our products resulting from asbestos exposure. We believe there are numerous legal defenses available for such claims and would defend ourselves vigorously. Pursuant to the Distribution Agreement ("Distribution Agreement") dated October 25, 2011 among ITT Corporation ("ITT" or "former parent"), Exelis Inc. and Xylem, the former parent has an obligation to indemnify, defend and hold Xylem harmless for asbestos product liability matters, including settlements, judgments, and legal defense costs associated with all pending and future claims that may arise from past sales of the former parent’s legacy products. We believe the former parent remains a substantial entity with sufficient financial resources to honor its obligations to us.

Although the ultimate outcome of any legal matter cannot be predicted with certainty, based on present information, including our assessment of the merits of the particular claims, we do not expect that any asserted or unasserted legal claims or proceedings, individually or in aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. We have estimated and accrued $18 million and $17 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 for these general legal matters.

Indemnifications

As part of our 2011 spin-off from our former parent, ITT, Exelis Inc. and Xylem will indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the other parties with respect to such parties’ assumed or retained liabilities under the Distribution Agreement and breaches of the Distribution Agreement or related spin agreements. The former parent’s indemnification obligations include asserted and unasserted asbestos and silica liability claims that relate to the presence or alleged presence of asbestos or silica in products manufactured, repaired or sold prior to October 31, 2011, the Distribution Date, subject to limited exceptions with respect to certain employee claims, or in the structure or material of any building or facility, subject to exceptions with respect to employee claims relating to Xylem buildings or facilities. The indemnification associated with pending and future asbestos claims does not expire. Xylem has not recorded a liability for material matters for which we expect to be indemnified by the former parent or Exelis Inc. through the Distribution Agreement and we are not aware of any claims or other circumstances that would give rise to material payments from us under such indemnifications.

Environmental

In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to federal, state, local, and foreign environmental laws and regulations. We are responsible, or are alleged to be responsible, for ongoing environmental investigation and remediation of sites in various countries. These sites are in various stages of investigation and/or remediation and in many of these proceedings our liability is considered de minimis. We have received notification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and from similar state and foreign environmental agencies, that a number of sites formerly or currently owned and/or operated by Xylem or for which we are responsible under the Distribution Agreement, and other properties or water supplies that may be or have been impacted from those operations, contain disposed or recycled materials or wastes and require environmental investigation and/or remediation. These sites include instances where we have been identified as a potentially responsible party under federal and state environmental laws and regulations.

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. Our accrued liabilities for these environmental matters represent the best estimates related to the investigation and remediation of environmental media such as water, soil, soil vapor, air and structures, as well as related legal fees. These estimates, and related accruals, are reviewed quarterly and updated for progress of investigation and remediation efforts and changes in facts and legal circumstances. Liabilities for these environmental expenditures are recorded on an undiscounted basis. We have estimated and accrued $6 million and $8 million as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 for environmental matters, respectively.

It is difficult to estimate the final costs of investigation and remediation due to various factors, including incomplete information regarding particular sites and other potentially responsible parties, uncertainty regarding the extent of investigation or remediation and our share, if any, of liability for such conditions, the selection of alternative remedial approaches, and changes in environmental standards and regulatory requirements. We believe the total amount accrued is reasonable based on existing facts and circumstances.

Warranties

We warrant numerous products, the terms of which vary widely. In general, we warrant products against defect and specific non-performance. The table below provides the changes in our product warranty accrual.

Overview

Xylem is a leading equipment and service provider for water and wastewater applications with a broad portfolio of products and services addressing the full cycle of water, from collection, distribution and use to the return of water to the environment. Our business focuses on providing technology-intensive equipment and services. Our product and service offerings are organized into two segments: Water Infrastructure and Applied Water. Our segments are aligned with each of the sectors in the cycle of water, water infrastructure and usage applications.

•

Water Infrastructure serves the water infrastructure sector with pump systems that transport water from aquifers, lakes, rivers and seas; with filtration, ultraviolet and ozone systems that provide treatment, making the water fit to use; and pumping solutions that move the wastewater to treatment facilities where our mixers, biological treatment, monitoring and control systems provide the primary functions in the treatment process. We provide analytical instrumentation

used to measure water quality, flow and level in wastewater, surface water and coastal environments. In the Water Infrastructure segment, we provide the majority of our sales direct to customers with strong application expertise, while the remaining amount is through distribution partners.

•

Applied Water serves the usage applications sector with water pressure boosting systems for heating, ventilation and air conditioning and for fire protection systems to the residential and commercial building services markets. In addition, our pumps, heat exchangers, valves and controls provide cooling to power plants and manufacturing facilities, as well as circulation for food and beverage processing. We also provide boosting systems for farming irrigation, pumps for dairy operations and rainwater reuse systems for small scale crop and turf irrigation. In the Applied Water segment, we provide the majority of our sales through long-standing relationships with the world’s leading distributors, with the remainder going direct to customers.

Executive Summary

Xylem reported revenue for the second quarter of 2014 of $1,005 million , an increase of 4.7% compared to $960 million during the second quarter of 2013 . Revenue increased 4.0% on a constant currency basis, driven by organic revenue growth across the public utility and industrial water end markets driven by strength in emerging markets, particularly in Greater Asia and Latin America. Improving market conditions in Europe and the Americas also bolstered revenue growth. Operating income for the second quarter of 2014 was $116 million , reflecting an increase of $46 million or 65.7% compared to $70 million in the second quarter of 2013 , primarily due to savings from lean six sigma activities, restructuring actions and global sourcing initiatives, combined with sales volume increases that more than offset headwinds from cost inflation and unfavorable price and sales mix. Additionally, restructuring and realignment cost actions taken to improve the overall cost base of the business were $9 million in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to $28 million in the prior year.

Additional financial highlights for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 include the following:


•	Orders of $1,031 million , or 2.2% growth from $1,009 million in the prior year


•	Earnings per share of $0.47 , up 88.0% from prior year ( $0.48 on an adjusted basis, up 33.3% )


•	Cash flow from operating activities of $98 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 , up 58% from prior year, and free cash flow of $50 million as compared to $2 million in the prior year.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

Management reviews key performance indicators including revenue, gross margin, segment operating income and margins, earnings per share, orders growth, working capital, free cash flow and backlog, among others. In addition, we consider certain measures to be useful to management and investors evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations, liquidity and management of assets. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including, but not limited to, dividends, acquisitions, share repurchases and debt repayment. These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, net income, earnings per share (basic and diluted) or net cash from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, to be key performance indicators:


•	"organic revenue" and "organic orders" defined as revenue and orders, respectively, excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, intercompany transactions and contributions from

acquisitions and divestitures. Divestitures include sales of insignificant portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency fluctuations assumes no change in exchange rates from the prior period.


•	"constant currency" defined as financial results adjusted for currency translation impacts by translating current period and prior period activity using the same currency conversion rate. This approach is used for countries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar.


•	"adjusted net income" and "adjusted earnings per share" defined as net income and earnings per share, respectively, adjusted to exclude non-recurring restructuring and realignment costs, and tax-related special items. A reconciliation of adjusted net income is provided below.

•	"operating expenses excluding restructuring and realignment costs" defined as operating expenses, adjusted to exclude restructuring and realignment costs.


•	"adjusted segment operating income" defined as segment operating income, adjusted to exclude restructuring and realignment costs, and "adjusted segment operating margin" defined as adjusted segment operating income divided by total segment revenue.


•	“realignment costs” defined as non-recurring costs not included in restructuring costs that are incurred as part of actions taken to reposition our business, including items such as professional fees, relocation, travel and other costs.

•

"free cash flow" defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, as well as adjustments for other significant items that impact current results that management believes are not related to our ongoing operations and performance. Our definition of free cash flow does not consider certain non-discretionary cash payments, such as debt. The following table provides a reconciliation of free cash flow.

2014 Outlook

In the second half of 2014, we continue to expect a modest recovery in the United States industrial markets, combined with modest improvement in performance in our European industrial end markets. Globally, while our industrial markets are improving in production and capital outlay, continued mixed performance in mining is expected. We expect public utilities to grow at a modest level in the remainder of 2014, but at a lower rate than we experienced in the first half of 2014 and lower compared to the second half of 2013 due primarily to the lapping of a strong second half in the prior year and the timing of project deliveries. We expect modest second half growth in commercial building applications from a slow-to-recover U.S. institutional building sector, which will be reinforced by incremental growth from product launches later this year and strength in emerging markets. We expect flat to slightly negative revenue growth from residential building applications over the balance of the year. We are continuing to execute restructuring and realignment actions, including our organizational redesign and repositioning of our European and North American businesses to optimize our cost structure and improve our operational efficiency and effectiveness. In 2014, we continue to expect to incur approximately $30 to $35 million in restructuring costs, and approximately $10 to $15 million in realignment costs. We expect to realize approximately $25 million of incremental net savings in 2014 from restructuring actions initiated in 2013, and an additional $15 million of net savings from our 2014 actions. Additional strategic actions we have undertaken include investing in a customer relationship management system, growth platforms and new product development, as well as executing operating efficiencies through lean six sigma and global sourcing initiatives. We also will continue to focus on the Xylem Management System which integrates our key business processes.

Revenue

Revenue generated during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 was $1,005 million and $1,911 million , respectively, reflecting an increase of $45 million or 4.7% and $72 million or 3.9% , respectively, compared to the same prior year periods. On a constant currency basis, revenue increased 4.0% and 3.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively, reflecting strength in emerging markets and modest growth in the United States and Europe.

The following table illustrates the impact from organic growth, recent acquisitions and fluctuations in foreign currency in relation to revenue during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 :

Water Infrastructure

Water Infrastructure revenue increased $40 million , or 6.7% for the second quarter of 2014 ( 6.7% increase at constant currency) and $57 million , or 5.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 ( 5.7% increase at constant currency) compared to the respective 2013 periods. The increase was primarily driven by organic growth of $39 million or 6.5% and $59 million or 5.1% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively, due to strength in the public utility and industrial water end markets as well as $1 million and $6 million, respectively, from acquisitions.

From an application perspective for the second quarter of 2014 , there was organic revenue growth in all product applications and across most regions of the segment. Revenue from transport applications grew primarily from infrastructure investments in public utility water and wastewater within Europe and Asia as well as from an increase in dewatering activity in the United States, driven by increased hydraulic fracturing activity and higher equipment sales. Revenue from treatment applications increased

significantly due to strength in emerging markets, particularly in Asia and timing of other project deliveries. The increases in treatment were partially offset by slower demand in the United States. Revenue from test applications grew due to strength in North America and Europe from increased government spending.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 , the organic revenue growth generated from all applications was predominately due to similar dynamics impacting the second quarter , coupled with large custom transport pump sales in Asia and higher test application large projects in Latin America and the Middle East in the first quarter.

Applied Water

Applied Water revenue increased $7 million , or 1.8% for the second quarter of 2014 ( 0.5% decrease at constant currency) and $17 million , or 2.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 ( 0.6% increase at constant currency) compared to the respective 2013 periods. The overall increase in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the same prior year period is primarily due to a favorable foreign exchange impact. Organic revenue declined in the second quarter of 2014 by $2 million, or 0.5% versus the second quarter of 2013 due to weakness in the commercial and residential end markets, which more than offset strength in the industrial markets. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was also due to favorable foreign exchange translation tailwinds coupled with $4 million, or 0.6% organic growth in the industrial, residential and agriculture end markets, offset by declines in the commercial end market.

From an application perspective for the second quarter of 2014 , the organic revenue decline was primarily driven by commercial building applications within the United States due to continued sluggish institutional building market conditions. Residential building applications also experienced declines due to southern Europe residential market weakness, which was partially offset by growth in the United States residential market. The overall decrease was also partially offset by continued strength from industrial projects in the emerging markets, specifically Asia and the Middle East.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 , the increase in organic revenue was driven by overall growth in industrial water from industrial projects in Asia and the Middle East, combined with growth in irrigation applications in the first quarter from drought conditions in the western United States. The frigid weather conditions in the northeast and midwest regions of the United States which caused increased demand for HVAC units and circulator pumps within the residential building services market in the first quarter were offset predominately by the aforementioned weakness in Europe and the United States during the second quarter. Finally, declines in the the first half of 2014 within the commercial building services market from slow construction activity also partially offset the organic growth in the segment.

Orders / Backlog

Orders received during the second quarter of 2014 of $1,031 million increased by $22 million , or 2.2% over the second quarter of the prior year ( 1.4% increase at constant currency), including a benefit of $1 million from acquisitions. Orders received during the six months ended June 30, 2014 of $2,024 million increased by $53 million , or 2.7% from the respective prior year period ( 2.4% increase at constant currency). Organic order growth increased 1.3% and 2.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 .

Water Infrastructure segment orders increased $27 million , or 4.2% to $674 million ( 3.7% increase at constant currency) for the quarter as compared to the prior year, including $1 million from acquisitions. Organic orders increased 3.6% during the second quarter principally due to higher industrial demand within transport for wastewater pumps primarily in the United States and Europe. Further, the increase was also driven by the dewatering business from an increase in equipment sales activity and hydraulic fracturing orders. Growth was also driven by test applications resulting from modest expansion in government spending in the United States and strength in the European markets. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 , orders increased $45 million , or 3.6% to $1,293 million ( 4.0% increase at constant currency) as compared to the prior year period, including $8 million from acquisitions. Organic orders increased 3.4% for the six months ended June 30, 2014 due to similar dynamics impacting the order

activity in the second quarter , combined with higher industrial demand for large custom transport pumps in the first quarter.

Applied Water segment orders were flat ( 2.9% decrease at constant currency) and increased $16 million , or 2.1% ( 0.3% decrease at constant currency) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively. Organic order volume decreased 2.9% and 0.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively. Organic order volume decreased during the three month period as a result of similar market dynamics impacting revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2014 , organic order volume decreased as weakness in the commercial building services and industrial markets within the United States, as well as overall soft market conditions in Europe, were partially offset by modest growth in the residential markets of the United States and continued strength in China resulting from execution against our key account growth strategy in the region.

Delivery schedules vary from customer to customer based upon their requirements. Typically, large projects require longer lead production cycles and delays can occur from time to time. Total backlog was $816 million at June 30, 2014 , an increase of $57 million or 7.5% as compared to $759 million at June 30, 2013 and an increase of $109 million or 15.4% as compared to $707 million at December 31, 2013 . We anticipate that approximately 79% of the backlog at June 30, 2014 will be recognized as revenue in the remainder of 2014 .

Gross Margin

Gross margin was essentially flat at 38.6% and 38.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively, compared to 38.6% and 38.3% , respectively, for 2013 . Gross margin was impacted by lower margin sales in the Water Infrastructure segment caused by lower year-over-year dewatering rental revenue, as well as unfavorable price impacts and the geographic sales mix caused by the increased sales to emerging markets. These declines were mitigated by overall sales volume increases across both segments and from benefits realized from restructuring savings and cost saving initiatives through lean six sigma and global sourcing.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A decreased by $11 million to $242 million or 24.1% of revenue in the second quarter of 2014 , as compared to $253 million or 26.4% of revenue in 2013 ; and decreased by $24 million to $466 million or 24.4% of revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2014 , as compared to $490 million or 26.6% of

revenue in 2013 . The decrease in SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenue is primarily due to benefits from restructuring actions combined with cost saving initiatives, as well as higher sales volume.

Research and Development Expenses

R&D spending slightly decreased to $27 million or 2.7% of revenue in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to $28 million or 2.9% of revenue in the comparable period of 2013 . The decrease is reflective of timing of investments and remained flat at $54 million or 2.8% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 , as compared to 2.9% of revenue in the comparable period of 2013.

Restructuring Charges

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , we recognized restructuring charges of $3 million and $18 million , respectively. We incurred these charges primarily in an effort to reposition our European and North American businesses to optimize our cost structure and improve our operational efficiency and effectiveness. The charges relate to the reduction in structural costs, including a decrease in headcount and consolidation of facilities within both our Water Infrastructure and Applied Water segments. Included in these charges is less than $1 million and $1 million, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, related to actions that commenced in 2013. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 , we recognized restructuring charges of $20 million and $25 million , respectively. These charges related to the reduction in structural costs, including the elimination of headcount and consolidation of facilities within both our Water Infrastructure and Applied Water segments.

Total expected costs associated with actions that commenced during the six months ended June 30, 2014 are approximately $13 million for Water Infrastructure and approximately $9 million for Applied Water. These costs primarily comprise severance charges. Related to these actions we incurred approximately $2 million and $11 million for Water Infrastructure during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and approximately $1 million and $6 million for Applied Water during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively. These actions are currently expected to continue through the the second quarter of 2015. As a result of actions initiated during the six months ended June 30, 2014 , we estimate net savings of approximately $13 million in 2014 and annual future net savings beginning in 2015 of approximately $20 million.

We expect to incur approximately $30 to $35 million in restructuring costs for the full year which contemplates additional actions beyond those discussed above. As a result of all of the actions taken and expected to be taken in 2014, we anticipate approximately $15 million of total net savings to be realized during 2014.

Operating Income

We generated operating income of $116 million during the second quarter of 2014 , a $46 million increase compared to $70 million in 2013 , and $192 million in the six months ended June 30, 2014 , an increase of $56 million compared to $136 million in 2013 . The stronger results in both periods were driven by increased sales volumes and cost saving initiatives, partially offset by cost inflation and sales mix.

The following table illustrates operating income results for our business segments:

Water Infrastructure

Operating income for our Water Infrastructure segment increased $36 million or 87.8% (increased $19 million or 30.2% on an adjusted basis) for the second quarter of 2014 and increased $40 million or 48.2% (increased $25 million or 21.7% on an adjusted basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared with the same periods for the prior year. The increase for the second quarter of 2014 was principally due to sales volume increases across all product applications in conjunction with savings from lean six sigma, restructuring and global sourcing initiatives, which were partially offset by cost inflation and unfavorable price and sales mix. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was primarily related to the same factors impacting the second quarter and was also negatively impacted by foreign exchange headwinds and sales mix.

Applied Water

Operating income for our Applied Water segment increased $7 million or 15.6% (increased $5 million or 9.8% on an adjusted basis) for the second quarter of 2014 and increased $8 million or 9.4% (increased $10 million or 10.8% on an adjusted basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared with the same periods for the prior year. The increases for both periods were driven by global sourcing, lean six sigma initiatives and restructuring savings as well as modest price realization, which were partially offset by cost inflation.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $13 million and $27 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively, and $14 million and $27 million for the respective three and six months ended June 30, 2013 , primarily related to the interest on the $1.2 billion long-term debt issued in September 2011. See "Liquidity and Capital Resources" for further details.

Income Tax Expense

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive loss was $8 million and $9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , respectively, compared to a loss of $17 million and $60 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 , respectively. The change was driven almost entirely by the decrease in unfavorable foreign currency translation impact in 2014 as compared to 2013, primarily due to movements in the EURO against the US Dollar, which had a large unfavorable impact in the second quarter and first half of 2013, but less impact in the same respective periods of 2014 .

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table summarizes our sources and (uses) of cash:



	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
(In millions)	2014			2013			Change
Operating activities	$	98		$	62		$	36
Investing activities	(47		)	(138		)	91
Financing activities	(130		)	(60		)	(70		)
Foreign exchange	(4		)	(8		)	4
Total	$	(83	)	$	(144	)	$	61

Sources and Uses of Liquidity

Operating Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 , net cash provided by operating activities increased by $36 million as compared to the prior year. The year-over-year increase was primarily driven by increased cash inflow from income. The increase was partially offset by an increase in the use of working capital, primarily due to increased inventories to support a higher backlog, as well as an increase in restructuring payments.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities was $47 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $138 million in the prior year due almost entirely to the cash used in 2013 for acquisitions of $81 million. Additionally, capital expenditures decreased $12 million due to prior year information technology investments, as well as some manufacturing facility investments, which did not recur, partially offset by increases related to the new corporate headquarters facility and increased investment in dewatering rental equipment.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was $130 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to $60 million in the prior year, primarily driven by an increase in share repurchase activity of $83 million under the share repurchase plan announced in 2013, as well as an increase of $4 million, or 10% increase per share in dividends paid to shareholders. The cash used was partially offset by an increase in proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $16 million.

Funding and Liquidity Strategy

Our ability to fund our capital needs depends on our ongoing ability to generate cash from operations, and access to bank financing and the capital markets. Historically, we have generated operating cash flow sufficient to fund our primary cash needs centered on operating activities, working capital, capital expenditures, and strategic investments. If our cash flows from operations are less than we expect, we may need to incur debt or issue equity. From time to time, we may need to access the long-term and short-term capital markets to obtain financing. Our access to, and the availability of, financing on acceptable terms and conditions in the future will be impacted by many factors, including: (i) our credit ratings or absence of a credit rating, (ii) the liquidity of the overall capital markets, and (iii) the current state of the economy. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or that such financing will be available at all.

We anticipate that our present sources of funds, including funds from operations and additional borrowings, will provide us with sufficient liquidity and capital resources to meet our liquidity and capital needs in both the United States and outside of the United States over the next twelve months.

Senior Notes

On September 20, 2011, we issued 3.550% Senior Notes of $600 million aggregate principal amount due September 2016 (the "Senior Notes due 2016") and 4.875% Senior Notes of $600 million aggregate principal amount due October 2021 (the "Senior Notes due 2021" and together with the Senior Notes due 2016, the "Senior Notes").

The Senior Notes include covenants that restrict our ability, subject to exceptions, to incur debt secured by liens and engage in sale and leaseback transactions, as well as provide for customary events of default (subject, in certain cases, to receipt of notice of default and/or customary grace and cure periods). We may redeem the Senior Notes, as applicable, in whole or in part, at any time at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus a make-whole premium. As of June 30, 2014 , we were in compliance with all covenants. If a change of control triggering event (as defined in the Senior Notes indenture) occurs, we will be required to make an offer to purchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.

Interest on the Senior Notes due 2016 is payable on March 20 and September 20 of each year. Interest on the Senior Notes due 2021 is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year.

Credit Facility

Effective October 31, 2011, Xylem and its subsidiaries entered into a Four Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The Credit Facility provides for an aggregate principal amount of up to $600 million of: (i) a competitive advance borrowing option which will be provided on an uncommitted competitive advance basis through an auction mechanism (the "competitive loans") (ii) revolving extensions of credit (the "revolving loans") outstanding at any time and (iii) the issuance of letters of credit in a face amount not in excess of $100 million outstanding at any time.

As of June 30, 2014 the Credit Facility remains undrawn.

Research and Development Facility Agreement

Non-U.S. Operations

We generated approximately 62% and 63% of our revenue from non-U.S. operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 , and 61% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 . As we continue to grow our operations in the emerging markets and elsewhere outside of the United States, we expect to continue to generate significant revenue from non-U.S. operations and we expect our cash will be predominately held by our foreign subsidiaries. We expect to manage our worldwide cash requirements considering available funds among the many subsidiaries through which we conduct business and the cost effectiveness with which those funds can be accessed. We may transfer cash from certain international subsidiaries to the U.S. and other international subsidiaries when we believe it is cost effective to do so. We continually review our domestic and foreign cash profile, expected future cash generation and investment opportunities, which support our current designation of a portion of these funds as being indefinitely reinvested and reassess whether there is a demonstrated need to repatriate funds held internationally to support our U.S. operations. If, as a result of our review, it is determined that all or a portion of the funds may be needed for our operations in the United States, we may be required to accrue additional U.S. taxes. As of June 30, 2014 , our foreign subsidiaries were holding $361 million in cash or marketable securities.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our results of operations and capital resources are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We believe the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the condensed consolidated financial statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the 2013 Annual Report describes the critical accounting estimates used in preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements. Actual results in these areas could differ from management’s estimates. There have been no significant changes in the information concerning our critical accounting estimates as stated in our 2013 Annual Report.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 , "Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements," in the Notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a complete discussion of recent accounting pronouncements. We are currently evaluating the impact of certain recently issued guidance on our financial condition and results of operations in future periods.



ITEM 3.	QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There has been no material change in the information concerning market risk as stated in our 2013 Annual Report.



ITEM 4.	CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management, with the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter covered by this quarterly report that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that are incidental to the operation of our businesses. Some of these proceedings seek remedies relating to environmental matters, intellectual property matters, personal injury claims, employment and pension matters, government contract issues and commercial or contractual disputes, sometimes related to acquisitions or divestitures. See Note 17 "Commitments and Contingencies" to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further information and any updates.

There were no shares purchased under this program during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and there are approximately 1.0 million shares (approximately $41 million) that may still be purchased under this plan.

As announced on August 21, 2013, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of shares up to $250 million with no expiration date. The program's objective is to deploy our capital in a manner that benefits our shareholders and maintains our focus on growth. During the three months ended June 30, 2014 , 1.3 million shares were repurchased at an average price of $37.60 per share for a total cost of $50 million.
