PART I

 

ITEM 1.                          BUSINESS

 

We believe that we are the world’s leading manufacturer and aftermarket service provider of comprehensive flow control systems.  Flowserve was incorporated in the State of New York on May 1, 1912.  We develop and manufacture precision-engineered flow control equipment for critical service applications where high reliability is required.  The flow control system components we produce include pumps, valves and mechanical seals.  Our products and services are used in several industries, including, but not limited to, the petroleum, chemical, power generation, water treatment and general industrial industries.

 

Flowserve conducts its operations through three business segments:

 

       Flowserve Pump Division (FPD) for engineered pumps, industrial pumps and related services;

       Flow Solutions Division (FSD) for precision mechanical seals and related services; and

       Flow Control Division (FCD) for industrial valves, manual valves, control valves, nuclear valves, valve actuators and controls and related services.

 

Through each of our segments, we also provide aftermarket replacement parts.

 

We are not required to carry unusually high amounts of inventory to meet customer delivery requirements nor to assure needed deliveries from suppliers.  In fact, we have been working to reduce our overall inventory levels to improve our operational effectiveness and to reduce our working capital needs.  We typically do not provide rights of product return to customers, nor do we offer extended payment terms under normal circumstances.

 

Effective July 1, 2002, we realigned our operating segments.  Under the new organization, the Flow Solutions Division includes our seal operations, while our pump service and valve service businesses are included as appropriate in the Flowserve Pump Division and Flow Control Division, respectively.  The segment information reported herein reflects the new organizational structure for all periods presented.

 

For additional information on our business segments, see Note 17 of the consolidated financial statements provided as part of Item 8 of this Form 10-K/A.

 

FLOWSERVE PUMP DIVISION

 

Through FPD, we design, manufacture, distribute and service engineered and industrial pumps and pump systems, replacement parts and related equipment principally to industrial markets.  FPD’s products and services are primarily used by companies that operate in the petroleum, chemical processing, power generating, water treatment and general industrial markets.  Our pump systems and components are manufactured at 23 plants in the U.S. and throughout the world.  We also manufacture a small portion of our pumps through several foreign joint ventures.  We market our pump products, which are primarily sold to end users and engineering and construction companies, through our worldwide sales force, regional service and repair centers, independent distributors and sales representatives.

 

FPD PRODUCTS

 

We manufacture more than 100 different pump models ranging from simple fractional horsepower industrial pumps to high horsepower engineered pumps.  Our pumps are manufactured in a wide range of metal alloys and with a variety of configurations, including pumps that utilize mechanical seals (sealed pumps) and pumps that do not utilize mechanical seals (Magnetic-Drive pumps).

FPD CUSTOMERS

 

FPD sells its products to more than 500 customers, including leading engineering and construction firms, original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”), distributors and end users.  FPD’s sales mix of original equipment products and aftermarket replacement parts diversifies its business and somewhat mitigates the impact of an economic downturn on its business.

 

FPD COMPETITION

 

The pump industry is highly fragmented with more than 50 competitors; however, FPD primarily competes against a relatively limited number of large companies operating on a global scale.  Competition is generally based on price, expertise, delivery times, breadth of product offerings, contractual terms, previous installation history and reputation for quality.

 

The pump industry has undergone considerable consolidation in recent years, primarily caused by (1) the need to lower costs through reduction of excess capacity in the market and (2) customers’ preference to align with global full service suppliers and simplify their supplier base.  Despite the consolidation activity, the market remains highly competitive.

 

We believe, based on independent industry sources, that on a global basis we are the third largest industrial pump supplier.

 

FPD BACKLOG

 

FPD’s backlog of orders at December 31, 2002 was $495.1 million, compared with $551.4 million at December 31, 2001.  We shipped approximately 90% of the year end FPD backlog by December 31, 2003.

 

FLOW SOLUTIONS DIVISION

 

Through FSD, we design, manufacture and distribute mechanical seals, sealing systems and parts, and provide related services principally to industrial markets.  Flow control products require mechanical seals to be replaced throughout the products’ useful lives.  The replacement of mechanical seals is an integral part of aftermarket services.  Our mechanical seals are used on a variety of pumps, mixers, compressors, steam turbines and specialty equipment, primarily in the petroleum, chemical processing, power generation and general industrial end-markets.  We manufacture mechanical seals at five plants in the U.S. and throughout the world.  Through FSD’s global network of over 50 service and quick response centers, we provide service, repair and diagnostic services for maintaining components of flow control systems.

 

FSD’s mechanical seal products are primarily marketed through our sales force directly to end users and distributors.  A portion of our mechanical seal products is sold directly to OEMs for incorporation into pumps, compressors, mixers or other rotating equipment requiring mechanical seals.

 

FSD PRODUCTS

 

FSD designs, manufactures and distributes approximately 180 different models of mechanical seals and sealing systems.  We believe our ability to turn around engineered new seal product orders within 24 hours from the customer’s request, through design, engineering, manufacturing, testing and delivery, provides us with a leading competitive advantage.  Our mechanical seals are critical to the reliable operation of pumps, compressors and mixers for prevention of leakage and emissions of hazardous substances and the reduction of shaft wear caused by non-mechanical seals.  We also

NEW FSD PRODUCT DEVELOPMENTS

 

FSD’s investments in new product research and development are focused on longer lasting and more efficient products.  Approximately 30% of our original equipment mechanical seal sales for 2002 were sales of products developed within the past 5 years.  Our latest mechanical seal and seal system innovations include: (1) a sterilizable mixer seal; (2) a high pressure compressor barrier seal; (3) a new web-based asset management tool; (4) an equipment data point monitoring package; (5) as well as numerous product upgrades and improvements.  FSD also markets “Flowstar.Net,” an interactive tool FSD uses to actively monitor and manage information relative to equipment performance, which enhances our customers’ ability to make informed decisions and respond quickly to plant production problems, extend the life of their production equipment and, therefore, lower maintenance expenses.  None of these newly developed FSD products required the investment of a material amount of our assets or was otherwise material.

 

FSD CUSTOMERS

 

FSD’s mechanical seal products are sold directly to end users and to OEMs for incorporation into pumps, compressors, mixers or other rotating equipment requiring mechanical seals.  FSD’s mechanical seal sales are diversified among several industries, including petroleum, chemical, power generation, water treatment and general industries.

 

We have established alliances with over 200 customers.  Our customer alliances typically involve a closer working relationship than other customer transactions.  Under these alliances, our customers typically agree to place a high percentage of or all of their applicable business with us.  In return, we typically commit to a higher level of service,

technical support and prompt product availability than would normally be offered.  These alliances provide significant benefits to us, as well as to our customers, by creating a more efficient supply chain through the improvement of equipment reliability, reduction of procurement and inventory costs and increased communication with our customers.  Our alliances help us provide products and services to our customers in a timely and cost-effective manner and they are an effective platform for the quick introduction of new products and services, such as condition data point monitoring, to the marketplace.

 

FSD COMPETITION

 

FSD competes against a number of manufacturers in the sale of mechanical seals.  Our largest global mechanical seal competitor is John Crane, a unit of Smiths Group Plc.  We believe, based on independent industry sources, that on a global basis we are the second largest industrial mechanical seals supplier.

 

FSD BACKLOG

 

FSD’s backlog of orders at December 31, 2002 was $34.4 million, compared with $38.2 million at December 31, 2001.  FSD shipped all of its December 31, 2002 backlog during 2003.

 

FLOW CONTROL DIVISION

 

Through FCD, we design, manufacture and distribute manual valves, control valves, nuclear valves, actuators and related equipment and provide a variety of flow control-related services.  FCD’s valve products are an integral part of a flow control system and they are used to control the flow of liquids and gases.  Substantially all of FCD’s valves are specialized and engineered to perform specific functions within a flow control system.

 

FCD’s products are primarily used by companies that operate in the petroleum, chemical, power generation and general industries.  FCD manufactures valves and actuators through 24 major manufacturing plants worldwide.  We also  manufacture a small portion of our valves through foreign joint ventures.  Manual valve products and valve actuators are distributed through our sales force personnel and a network of distributors.  Control valves are marketed through sales engineers and service and repair centers or on a commission basis through sales representatives in our principal markets.

 

In May 2002, we acquired Invensys plc’s flow control division (“IFC”), which is described more fully in the Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements included in this report.  The IFC acquisition provided us with an expanded offering of valve types and technologies to better serve our customers’ flow control needs and broadened our footprint to meet the needs of our increasingly more-global customer base.

 

FCD PRODUCTS

 

Our valve, actuator and automated valve accessory offerings represent one of the most comprehensive product portfolios in the flow control industry.  Our valves are used in a wide variety of applications from general service to highly corrosive environments, as well as in environments experiencing extreme temperatures and/or pressures and applications requiring zero leakage.  FCD sells valves to the chemical, power, petroleum and other industries.  In addition to traditional valves, FCD also produces valves that incorporate “Smart” valve technologies, which integrate high technology sensors, microprocessor controls and digital positioners into a high performance control valve, permitting real time system analysis, system warnings and remote services.  We believe we were the first company to introduce “Smart” valve technologies in response to demands for increased plant automation, more efficient process control and digital communications.  FCD offers a growing line of digital products, and it will continue to incorporate digital technologies into its existing products to upgrade performance.

NEW FCD PRODUCT DEVELOPMENTS

 

Our investments in new FCD product research and development focus on technological leadership and differentiating our product offering.  When appropriate, we invest in the redesign of existing products in an effort to improve their performance and continually meet customer needs.  None of the newly developed FCD products required the investment of a material amount of our assets or was otherwise material.

 

7



 

FCD CUSTOMERS

 

FCD’s customer mix is diversified within several industries including chemical, petroleum, power and other industries.  We sell a mix of original equipment and aftermarket parts to our FCD customers.

 

FCD COMPETITION

 

Like the pump market, the valve market is highly fragmented and has undergone a significant amount of consolidation in recent years.  Within the valve industry, we believe that the top ten manufacturers, on a global basis, maintain less than 30% of the market.  We believe, based on independent industry sources, that on a global basis we are the second largest industrial valve supplier.

 

FCD BACKLOG

 

FCD’s backlog of orders at December 31, 2002 was $210.8 million, compared with $77.9 million at December 31, 2001.  This increase reflects the IFC acquisition.  FCD shipped approximately 85% of its December 31, 2002 backlog by December 31, 2003.

 

GENERAL BUSINESS

 

COMPETITION

 

The markets for our products are highly competitive.  Competition occurs on the basis of price, technical expertise, delivery, contractual terms, previous installation history and reputation for quality.  Delivery speed and the proximity of service centers are important with respect to aftermarket products and services.  Customers have traditionally been more likely to rely on us rather than our competitors for aftermarket products relating to our highly engineered and customized products.  However, aftermarket competition for standard products is increasing everywhere.  Price competition tends to be more significant for OEMs than aftermarket services and has been generally increasing.  In the aftermarket portion of our service business, we compete against both large and well-established national or global competitors and, in some markets, against smaller regional and local companies, as well as the in-house maintenance departments of our customers.  In the sale of aftermarket products and services, we benefit from the large installed base of pumps and valves which require maintenance, repair and replacement parts.

 

In the petroleum industry, the competitors for aftermarket services tend to be the customers utilizing their own in-house capabilities.  In other industries, except the nuclear power industry, the competitors for aftermarket services tend to be low cost replicators of spare parts and local independent repair shops for our products.  We have certain competitive advantages in the nuclear power industry due to our “N Stamp,” a prerequisite to serve customers in that industry, and due to our considerable base of proprietary knowledge.

 

Generally, our customers are attempting to reduce the number of vendors from which they purchase, thereby reducing the size and diversity of their inventory.  Although vendor reduction programs could adversely affect our business, we have been successful in entering into alliance arrangements with a number of customers globally to leverage our competitive advantage.

 

NEW PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

 

We conduct research and development at our own facilities in various locations.  Our product development efforts focus on developing new products and on improving versions of existing products.  In 2002, 2001 and 2000, we spent

 

8



 

approximately $24.4 million, $23.4 million and $24.8 million, respectively, on Company-sponsored research and development initiatives, primarily developing new products and extending our existing product lines.

 

Our research and development efforts consist of engineers involved in new product development and improvement of existing products.  Additionally, we sponsor consortium programs for research with various universities and conduct limited development work jointly with certain of our vendors, licensees and customers.  We believe current expenditures are adequate to sustain our ongoing research and development activities.

 

CUSTOMERS

 

We sell to a wide variety of customers in the petroleum, chemical, power generation, water treatment and general industries.  No individual customer accounted for more than 10% of our 2002 consolidated revenues.

 

SELLING AND DISTRIBUTION

 

Our primary method of distribution is via direct sales by employees assigned to specific regions, industries or products.  In addition, we use distributors and sales agents to supplement our direct sales force in countries where business practices or customs make it appropriate, or wherever it is uneconomical to have a direct sales staff.  We generate a majority of our sales leads through existing relationships with vendors, customers and prospects or through referrals.

 

RISKS OF INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS

 

Sales to foreign destinations, including U.S. export sales, comprised 56% of our sales in 2002, and included business activity in the Middle East.  Our activities thus are subject to the customary risks of operating in an international environment, such as military conflicts, unstable political situations, local laws, the potential imposition of trade restrictions or tariff increases and the relationship of the U.S. dollar to other currencies.  The impact of these conditions is mitigated somewhat by the strength and diversity of our product lines and geographic coverage.  To minimize the impact of foreign exchange rate movements on our operating results, we regularly enter into forward exchange contracts to hedge specific foreign currency denominated transactions, as more fully described in Note 9 of our consolidated financial statements.

 

For detailed information on revenues to different geographic areas and long-lived assets based on the facilities’ location, see Note 17 of our consolidated financial statements.

 

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY; TRADEMARKS AND PATENTS

 

We own a number of trademarks and patents relating to the name and design of our products.  We consider our trademarks and patents to be an important aspect of our business.  In addition, our pool of proprietary information, consisting of know-how and trade secrets relating to the design, manufacture and operation of our products and their use, is considered particularly important and valuable.  Accordingly, we attempt to proactively protect such proprietary information.  In general, we own the rights to the products which we manufacture and sell and do not depend, in any material way, on any license or franchise to operate.  Our trademarks extend indefinitely, while our existing patents will expire 20 years from the dates they were filed, which were at various times in the past.  We do not believe that the expiration of any one patent or related patents will adversely or materially impact us.

RAW MATERIALS

 

The principal raw materials we use in manufacturing our products are readily available and include bar stock and structural steel, castings, fasteners, gaskets, motors, silicon and carbon faces and fluoropolymer components.  While substantially all raw materials are purchased from outside sources, we have been able to obtain an adequate supply of raw materials, and do not anticipate any shortages of such materials.  We intend to expand worldwide sourcing to capitalize on low cost sources of purchased goods.

 

We are a vertically-integrated manufacturer of certain pump and valve products.  Certain corrosion-resistant castings for our pumps and quarter-turn valves are manufactured at our foundries.  Other metal castings are also manufactured at our foundries or they are purchased from outside sources.

 

We also produce most of our highly engineered corrosion resistant plastic parts for certain pump and valve product lines.  These include rotomolding as well as injection and compression molding of a variety of fluoropolymer and other plastic materials.  We do not anticipate difficulty in obtaining such raw materials in the future.

 

Suppliers of raw materials for nuclear markets must be qualified by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and, accordingly, are limited in number.  However, to date we have experienced no significant difficulty in obtaining such materials.

 

EMPLOYEES AND LABOR RELATIONS

 

We employ approximately 14,000 persons of whom approximately one-half work in the U.S.  Our hourly employees at our pump manufacturing plants located in Vernon, California and Phillipsburg, New Jersey, plus those at our valve manufacturing plants in Williamsport, Pennsylvania and Lynchburg, Virginia and at our foundry in Dayton, Ohio, are represented by unions.  Additionally, some employees at select facilities in the following countries are unionized or have employee work councils: Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, Spain and the United Kingdom.  We believe employee relations throughout our operations are generally satisfactory, including those represented by unions.

 

ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS AND PROCEEDINGS

 

We are subject to environmental laws and regulations in all jurisdictions in which we have operating facilities.  We periodically make capital expenditures to abate and control pollution and to satisfy environmental requirements.  At present, we have no plans for any material capital expenditures for environmental control facilities.  However, we have experienced and continue to experience operating costs relating to environmental matters, although certain costs have been offset by successful waste minimization programs.  Based on information currently available, we believe that future environmental compliance expenditures will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position.  We have established reserves which we believe to be adequate to cover potential environmental liabilities.

 

EXPORTS

 

Licenses are required from U.S. government agencies to export certain of our products.  In particular, products with nuclear applications are restricted as are certain of our other pump, valve, and mechanical seal products.

 

Our export sales from the U.S. to foreign unaffiliated customers were $192.4 million in 2002, $167.3 million in 2001 and $148.1 million in 2000.

ITEM 3.             LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

As of December 31, 2002, we were involved as a “potentially responsible party” (PRP) at two former public waste disposal sites that may be subject to remediation under pending government procedures. The sites are in various stages of evaluation by federal and state environmental authorities. The projected cost of remediating these sites, as well as our alleged “fair share” allocation, is uncertain and speculative until all studies have been completed and the parties have either negotiated an amicable resolution or the matter has been judicially resolved. At each site, there are many other parties who have similarly been identified, and the identification and location of additional parties is continuing under applicable federal or state law. Many of the other parties identified are financially strong and solvent companies that appear able to pay their share of the remediation costs. Based on our preliminary information about the waste disposal practices at these sites and the environmental regulatory process in general, we believe that it is likely that ultimate remediation liability costs for each site will be apportioned among all liable parties, including site owners and waste transporters, according to the volumes and/or toxicity of the wastes shown to have been disposed of at the sites.

 

We are a defendant in numerous pending lawsuits (which include, in many cases, multiple claimants) that seek to recover damages for alleged personal injury allegedly resulting from exposure to asbestos-containing products formerly manufactured and/or distributed by us. All such products were used within self-contained process equipment, and we do not believe that there was any emission of ambient asbestos-containing fiber during the use of this equipment.

 

We are also a defendant in several other product liability lawsuits that are insured, subject to the applicable deductibles, and certain other noninsured lawsuits received in the ordinary course of business. We believe that we have adequately accrued estimated losses for such lawsuits. No insurance recovery has been projected for any of the insured claims, because we currently believe that all will be resolved within applicable deductibles. We are also a party to other noninsured litigation that is incidental to its business, and, in our opinion, will be resolved without a material adverse impact on our financial statements.

 

In June 2002, we were sued by Ruhrpumpen, Inc. who alleged antitrust violations, conspiracy, fraud and breach of contract claims arising out of our December 2000 sale to Ruhrpumpen of a plant in Tulsa, Oklahoma and a license for eight defined pump lines.  The sale agreement had a purchase price of approximately $5.4 million plus other material terms, including Ruhrpumpen’s assumption of certain liabilities.  Ruhrpumpen subsequently amended its complaint to add Mr. Ronald F. Shuff, our Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel, and two other employees as individual defendants. The sale to Ruhrpumpen was the result of a divestiture agreement we reached with the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in July 2000 in connection with our acquisition of IDP.  Our agreement with the DOJ gives it the authority to make inquiries about and otherwise monitor our divestiture.  On or about May 13, 2003, we received a letter from the DOJ making inquiry into some of the issues raised by Ruhrpumpen in its lawsuit and seeking information about the divestiture and Ruhrpumpen’s lawsuit.  The DOJ continues to monitor the lawsuit and the divestiture.  During March 2004, the case was tried in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas.  At trial, Ruhrpumpen sought the recovery of over $100 million in actual and exemplary damages. We vigorously contested Ruhrpumpen’s allegations and purported damages.  At the close of the trial, Ruhrpumpen voluntarily dismissed its claims against Mr. Shuff and the other two employees.  We are currently awaiting a ruling from the court as to the remaining claims against the Company.

 

During the quarter ended September 30, 2003, related lawsuits were filed in federal court, in the Northern District of Texas, alleging that we violated federal securities laws during a period beginning on October 23, 2001 and ending September 27, 2002.  The cases were consolidated and a lead plaintiff was appointed by the court. A consolidated amended complaint was filed on February 5, 2004.  The consolidated amended complaint, like the earlier individual complaints, also names as individual defendants Mr. C. Scott Greer, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Ms. Renée J. Hornbaker, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and seeks unspecified compensatory damages and recovery of costs.  On March 11, 2004, the court granted the lead plaintiff leave to file a further amended complaint within 15 days of our filing of the finalized restatement of our financial results.  We strongly believe that the lawsuit is without merit and plan to vigorously defend the case.

 

On February 4, 2004, we received an informal inquiry from the SEC requesting the voluntary production of documents and information related to our February 3, 2004 announcement that we would restate our financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the full years 2002, 2001 and 2000.  In a separate informal inquiry, the SEC requested, and we voluntarily supplied, documents and other information relating to whether our Form 8-K, filed November 21, 2002, adequately fulfilled obligations that may have arisen under Regulation FD.  We intend to continue to cooperate with the SEC in these inquiries.

 

Although none of the aforementioned potential liabilities can be quantified with absolute certainty, we have established reserves covering these possible exposures, which we believe are reasonable based on past experience and available facts.  While additional exposures beyond these reserves could exist, none gives rise to any additional liability that can now be reasonably estimated, and we believe any such costs will not have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations.  We will continue to evaluate these potential contingent loss exposures and, if necessary, recognize expense as soon as such losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated.

ITEM 7.             MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set forth in this Item 7 has been revised to reflect the restatement of our Consolidated Financial Statements for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 and certain events occurring subsequent to the Original Form 10-K filing, as well as to incorporate certain conforming changes.  In addition, disclosures with respect to recently issued accounting standards have been updated.

 

Restatement

 

On February 3, 2004, we announced our intention to restate our financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the full years and related unaudited quarterly data for 2002, 2001 and 2000 as a result of identifying certain adjustments required to properly state these periods. The accompanying restated consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments made to previously reported financial statements for each of the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. The restatement, primarily affecting our pump and valve segments, principally relates to correcting: inventory amounts and related cost of sales; various non-inventory account balances; the computation of the 2002 and 2001 earnings tax provisions; and the classification of various balance sheet accounts.  The restatement reduced reported earnings before income taxes by $8.5 million, $11.7 million and $3.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

 

Inventory And Cost Of Sales Adjustments

 

The inventory and cost of sales adjustments primarily resulted from reconciliation issues at two of our reporting locations due to difficulties associated with converting to new computer systems. The difficulties in executing the conversions and related reconciliation issues resulted in inventory amounts not being properly charged to cost of sales in the appropriate periods. These adjustments reduced reported earnings before income taxes by an aggregate $7.0 million, $10.3 million and $1.2 million for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.  Additionally, we restated for adjustments to cost of sales resulting from inventory and related account reconciliations at a limited number of other locations which reduced reported earnings before income taxes by $0.6 million, $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

 

Other Adjustments

 

The restatement reduces reported earnings before income taxes by $0.9 million, $0.9 million and $1.2 million for 2002, 2001 and 2000, for adjustments identified during the reconciliation of cash, intercompany transactions, investments in affiliates, equipment and accrued liabilities balances as well as foreign exchange transactions.

 

Tax Adjustments

 

The restatement includes the tax effects of the aforementioned adjustments plus adjustments to reduce net earnings by $1.2 million and $1.4 million to correct for certain elements of the computation of the tax provision for 2002 and 2001, respectively.

 

Balance Sheet Adjustments

 

We have restated amounts within the balance sheet accounts to appropriately classify tax assets and liabilities, including the establishment of deferred taxes related to the cumulative translation adjustment account.

 

We also intend to restate our quarterly operating results for each of the first three quarters of 2003 to increase reported earnings before income taxes by $2.1 million to adjust for the aforementioned entries not being recognized in the appropriate periods, including adjustments for certain inappropriate accounting entries made without proper substantiation.

OVERVIEW

 

The following discussion and analysis are provided to increase the understanding of, and should be read in conjunction with, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes.

 

We produce engineered and industrial pumps, industrial valves, control valves, nuclear valves, valve actuators and precision mechanical seals, and provides a range of related flow management services worldwide, primarily for the process industries.  Equipment manufactured and serviced by us is predominately used in industries that deal with difficult-to-handle and corrosive fluids as well as environments with extreme temperatures, pressure, horsepower and speed.  Our businesses are affected by economic conditions in the U.S. and other countries where our products are sold and serviced, by the cyclical nature of the petroleum, chemical, power, water and other industries served, by the relationship of the U.S. dollar to other currencies, and by the demand for and pricing of our customers’ products.  We believe the impact of these conditions is somewhat mitigated by the strength and diversity of our product lines, geographic coverage and significant installed base, which provides potential for an annuity stream of revenue from parts and services.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

Management’s discussion and analysis is based on our consolidated financial statements and related footnotes contained within this report.  Our more critical accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are discussed below.

 

Based on a critical assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, we believe that our consolidated financial statements provide a meaningful and fair perspective.  This is not to suggest that other general risk factors, such as changes in worldwide growth objectives, changes in material costs, performance of acquired businesses and others, could not adversely impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows in future periods.

 

The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires the use of estimates and assumptions to determine reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.  These estimates and assumptions are based upon the best information available at the time of the estimates or assumptions.  The estimates and assumptions could change materially as conditions within and beyond our control change.  Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.  Our most significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, reserves for excess and obsolete inventories, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, restructuring accruals, legal and environmental accruals, warranty accruals, insurance accruals, pension and postretirement benefit obligations, valuation of goodwill and other long-lived assets, and the expense associated with stock-based compensation.  The significant estimates are reviewed quarterly with our Audit/Finance Committee.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues are recognized based on the shipping terms agreed to with the customer and fulfillment of all but inconsequential or perfunctory actions required, which is the point of title transfer, unless the customer order requires formal acceptance under which circumstances revenue is not recognized until formal acceptance has been received.  Revenue on service contracts is recognized after the services have been rendered and accepted by the customer.  In addition, our policy requires, prior to shipment, the persuasive evidence of an arrangement, a fixed or determinable sales price and reasonable assurance of collectibility.  Revenue for longer-term contracts defined as contracts longer than nine-months in duration, with contract values over $750,000 and progress billings from the customer are recorded on the percentage of completion method calculated on a cost-to-cost basis.  Percentage of completion represents approximately 5-10% of consolidated revenues.  Revenues generated under fixed fee service and repair contracts, which represent approximately 1% of consolidated revenues, are recognized ratably over the term of the contract, which ranges from 2-5 years.

 

Allowance For Doubtful Accounts And Credit Risk

 

Accounts receivable are stated net of the allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

The allowance for doubtful accounts is established based on estimates of the amount of uncollectible accounts receivable. The amount of the allowance is determined based upon the aging of the receivable, customer credit history, industry and market segment information, economic trends and conditions, credit reports and customer financial condition.  Customer credit issues, customer bankruptcies or general economic conditions can affect the estimates.

 

 

16



 

Credit risk may be mitigated by the large number of customers in our customer base across many different geographic regions and an analysis of the creditworthiness of such customers.  Additionally, we maintain a credit insurance policy for our European subsidiaries.  Under this policy, we generally receive funds from the third party insurer, net of deductible, in instances where customers covered by the policy are unable to pay.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower-of-cost or market.  Cost is determined for U.S. inventories by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and for other inventories by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.  Reserves for excess and obsolete inventories are based on an assessment of slow-moving and obsolete inventories, determined by historical usage and estimated future demand.  These estimates are generally not subject to significant volatility, except for product rationalizations generally associated with acquisition integration programs, due to the relatively long life cycle of our products.

 

Deferred Tax Asset Valuation

 

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date.  Valuation allowances reflect the likelihood of the recoverability of any such assets.  We record valuation allowances to reflect the estimated amount of deferred tax assets that may not be realized based upon an analysis of existing net operating losses and tax credits by jurisdiction and expectations of our ability to utilize these tax attributes through a review of past, current and estimated future taxable income and establishment of tax strategies.  These estimates could be impacted by changes in future taxable income and the results of tax strategies.

 

Restructuring Reserves

 

Restructuring reserves are generally established in conjunction with an acquisition.  Such reserves reflect many estimates including costs pertaining to employee separation, settlements of contractual obligations and other matters associated with exiting a facility.  Restructuring costs related to facilities and employees of an acquired business generally become a component of goodwill, whereas non-acquisition related restructuring costs are recorded as restructuring expense in the statement of operations.  Reserve requirements for each restructuring plan are assessed quarterly and susceptible to adjustment due to revisions of cost estimates and other changes in planned restructuring activities.

 

Legal And Environmental Accruals

 

The costs relating to legal and environmental liabilities are estimated and recorded when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and such loss is estimable.  We have a formal process for assessing the facts and circumstances and recording such contingencies on a case-by-case basis.  Assessments of legal and environmental costs are based on information obtained from our independent and in-house experts and our loss experience in similar situations.  The estimates may vary in the future due to new developments regarding the facts and circumstances of each matter.

 

17



 

Warranty Accruals

 

Warranty obligations are based upon product failure rates, materials usage and service delivery costs.  We estimate our warranty provisions based upon an analysis of all identified or expected claims and an estimate of the cost to resolve those claims.  The estimates of expected claims are generally a factor of historical claims.  Changes in claim rates, differences between actual and expected warranty costs and our facility rationalization activities could impact warranty obligation estimates.

 

Insurance Accruals

 

Insurance accruals are recorded based upon an analysis of our claim loss history, insurance deductibles, policy limits and an estimate of incurred but not reported claims.  The estimates are based upon information received from our insurance company adjusters.  Changes in claims and differences between actual and expected claim losses could impact accruals in the future.

 

Pension And Postretirement Benefits Obligations

 

Determination of the value of the pension and postretirement benefits liabilities is based on actuarial valuations.  Inherent in these valuations are key assumptions including discount rates, market value of plan assets, expected return on plan assets, life expectancy and assumed rate of increase in wages or in health care costs.  Current market conditions, including changes in rates of returns, interest rates and medical inflation rates are considered in selecting these assumptions.  Changes in the related pension and postretirement benefit costs may occur in the future due to changes in the assumptions used and changes resulting from fluctuations in the number of plan participants.

 

Valuation Of Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets And Other Long-Lived Assets

 

We test the value of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually in the fourth quarter and whenever events or circumstances indicate such assets may be impaired.  The test involves significant judgment in estimating projections of fair value generated through future performance of each of our reporting units which correlate to our operating segments.  The net realizable value of other long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, is reviewed periodically, when indicators of potential impairments are present, based upon an assessment of the estimated future cash flows related to those assets.

 

Due to uncertain market conditions and potential changes in strategy and product portfolio, it is possible that forecasts used to support asset carrying values may change in the future, which could result in non-cash charges that would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We account for our stock option compensation for employees and directors using the intrinsic-value method.  All options we grant have an exercise price equal to or in excess of the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, therefore, no compensation expense is recognized under the intrinsic-value method of accounting.  Awards of restricted stock are valued at the market price of our common stock on the date of grant and recorded as unearned compensation within shareholder’s equity.  The unearned compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period of the restricted stock.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

In general, 2002 consolidated results and the Flow Control Division results were higher than the corresponding period in 2001 due to our acquisition of Invensys’ flow control division  (“IFC”) on May 2, 2002.  The results for IFC subsequent to the date of acquisition are included in the results for our Flow Control Division.  The IFC acquisition is discussed in further detail in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis.  Pro forma results for 2002 and 2001

referenced throughout this Management’s Discussion and Analysis assume that the acquisition of IFC occurred on January 1, 2001 and include estimated purchase accounting and financing impacts.

 

In general, 2001 consolidated results and the Flowserve Pump Division results were higher than the corresponding period in 2000 due to our acquisition of Ingersoll-Dresser Pump Company (“IDP”) in August 2000.  Pro forma results in 2000 assume the acquisition of IDP took place on January 1, 2000.

 

All pro forma information is provided solely to enhance understanding of the operating results, not to purport what our results of operations would have been had such transactions or events occurred on the dates specified or to project the our results of operations for any future period.

Sales

 

We derive our revenues from pumps, valves and seals.  Our business is organized around these three distinct types of products into our three business segments: Flowserve Pump Division or FPD (pumps), Flow Control Division or FCD (valves) and Flow Solutions Division or FSD (seals).  Within each of the business segments there are sales of various product types: complete units, parts, repairs and other services.  Parts or complete units may also be a component of a repair or other service.

 

Our customers include engineering contractors, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), end users and distributors.  Sales to engineering contractors and OEMs are typically for project orders.  Project orders have lead times typically greater than three months.  Project orders provide product to our customers either directly or indirectly for their new construction projects or facility enhancement projects.  However, some distributor sales may also be for projects and some OEM sales may not be for projects.

 

Quick turnaround business, which we also refer to as book and ship business, is defined as orders that are received from the customer and shipped within an approximate three-month period.  They are typically for more standard products, parts or services.  Each of our three business segments generates quick turnaround business.

 

Our reporting of trends by product type, customer type and business type are based upon analytical review of individual operational results and our knowledge of their respective businesses as we do not track revenues by these categories.

Sales increased 17.4% in 2002, compared with a 24.6% increase during 2001.  The IFC acquisition and an increased sales volume of mechanical seals positively impacted sales in 2002 by approximately $324 million and $22.7 million, respectively.  Sales on a pro forma basis, including IFC, decreased 1.4% during 2002, reflecting the weakness in the quick turnaround business to the chemical, power and general industrial sectors, partially offset by the aforementioned increases.  Chemical and industrial pumps, valves and mechanical seals and related services are most dependent on this book and ship business.  We believe that the weakness in this business is due to customer deferrals of plant turnarounds and a lower level of capacity utilization due to partial or complete plant closures.

 

The sales increase in 2000, was largely due to the acquisition of IDP, which added an estimated $ 421.8 million in sales.  This was offset partially by lower sales volumes to chemical and general industrial customers due to weakness in the U.S. economy.  Unfavorable currency translation of $50.8 million and the divestiture of product lines pursuant to the IDP acquisition and closure or sale of several service operations negatively impacted sales in 2001.  Net sales to international customers, including export sales from the U.S., increased to 56% of sales in 2002, compared with 48% in 2001 and 38% in 2000.  IFC’s proportionately higher mix of international operations contributed to the increase in 2002, while the impact of IDP’s international operations contributed to the 2001 increase.

 

The change in sales is discussed further in the following section on Business Segments.

Bookings, or incoming orders for which there are customer purchase commitments, increased 10.6% in 2002 largely due to the IFC acquisition.  Bookings on a pro forma basis decreased in 2002 by 7.2%, which is primarily related to reduced demand for products and services to chemical, power and general industrial customers.

 

Bookings increased in 2001 largely due to the full year impact of the IDP acquisition.  The increase was offset in part by declines in business due to weakness in the U.S. economy, which impacted the chemical and general industrial sectors of the business most significantly in the second half of 2001.

 

Backlog in 2002 increased 10.7%, largely due to the IFC acquisition.  On a pro forma basis, including IFC, backlog decreased 5.9% primarily due to lower bookings in the chemical, power and general industrial sectors despite the booking of several large project orders in 2002.

 

Business Segments

 

We manage our operations through three business segments: Flowserve Pump Division (FPD) for engineered pumps, industrial pumps and related services; Flow Solutions Division (FSD) for precision mechanical seals and related services; and Flow Control Division (FCD) for industrial valves, manual valves, control valves, nuclear valves, valve actuators and controls and related services.

 

Effective July 1, 2002, we realigned our operating segments.  The reorganization was undertaken to strengthen end user focus within the segments.  Under the new organization, the Flow Solutions Division includes our seal operations, while our pump service and valve service businesses are now managed and thus included in the Flowserve Pump Division and Flow Control Division, respectively.  Effective January 1, 2003, we realigned certain small sites between segments.  Segment information reflects the new organizational structure for all periods presented.

Sales of pumps, pump parts and related services for the Flowserve Pump Division (FPD) increased by 2.9% during 2002 and by 44.8% during 2001.  The increase in 2002 was largely due to higher sales of engineered pumps for the petroleum and water markets due in part to a backlog that was $56.3 million higher at the beginning of 2002 than the end of 2002.  These improvements were partially offset by a lower volume of industrial pumps and service sales to the chemical, power and general industrial markets.  The declines in sales to the chemical, power and general industrial sectors were generally due to a lower level of profitability and capacity utilization by the customers.  These factors lead to reduced demand as well as some deferred spending by these customers.

 

The sales increase in 2001 was due to full year inclusion of the IDP acquisition.  The 4.8% decrease in pro forma sales during 2001 generally resulted from weakness in the U.S. economy, which impacted quick turnaround sales of industrial pumps to the chemical and general industrial businesses, unfavorable currency effects of an estimated $21.4 million and divestiture of product lines pursuant to the IDP acquisition.

 

FPD operating income, before special items, decreased 3.1% in 2002, compared with a 53.5% increase in 2001.  Operating income in 2002 benefited by $14.0 million from the implementation of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142, but decreased overall due to declines in quick turnaround chemical, power and general industrial businesses, which historically are more profitable than the engineered pump projects.  In addition, unfavorable manufacturing burden variances increases of about $3.5 million impacted results primarily due to lower production volumes and reductions in finished goods inventory in the facilities that manufacture pumps for the chemical, power and general industrial sectors.  The reported and pro forma operating income, before special items, increases in 2001 from 2000 primarily resulted from the synergy savings realized from the IDP integration activities, which included the reduction of overlapping sales coverage and the closure and significant downsizing of a number of pump plants.

Sales of seals for the Flow Solutions Division (FSD) increased by 6.9% in 2002, compared with essentially no increase in 2001.  The 2002 increase, despite generally weakened market conditions, reflects the division’s emphasis on end user business and its success in establishing customer alliances including longer term fixed fee agreements.  Fixed fee alliances are contractual agreements with customers wherein the customer pays us a fixed amount each period (usually monthly) for the term of the agreement.  In return for this fixed cost, the customer is entitled to new seals, repairs, upgraded equipment, replacements and maintenance services as defined within the scope of each agreement.  We believe that this emphasis combined with a focus on customer responsiveness has contributed to an increase in market share.

 

Sales for 2001 were relatively flat compared with 2000 as unfavorable currency translation effects primarily associated with the European currencies of an estimated $7.2 million offset the sales volume increase associated with customer alliance agreements.

 

FSD operating income increased 26.0% in 2002 compared with an increase of 10.0% in 2001.  The improvement reflects the benefit of higher sales.  Additionally, plant efficiencies resulted from the impact of continuous improvement process projects and bringing in-house of previously outsourced production at generally only variable cost.  Operating income in 2002 benefited by $1.2 million from the implementation of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142.  Operating income as a percentage of sales increased sequentially over the past three years, reflecting the full year inclusion of continuous improvement process initiatives and the benefit of the restructuring of the North American seal business, which resulted in the closure of a major North American facility and increased capacity in Mexico.

Sales of valves and related products and services for the Flow Control Division (FCD) increased by 61.0% in 2002 primarily due to the acquisition of IFC, compared with a 2.4% increase in 2001.  On a pro forma basis for 2002, including IFC, sales decreased 9.5% due to decreased customer demand for valve products and services in the chemical, power and general industrial sectors.  Sales in 2001 increased slightly primarily due to increased service opportunities offset by unfavorable currency effects of about $22.2 million and the slowdown in quick turnaround manual valve sales during the second half of 2001.

 

FCD operating income, before special items, during 2002 increased 16.4%, compared with a 3.3% decrease in 2001.  Operating income, before special items, in 2002 benefited by $4.4 million from the implementation of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142.  The decline in operating results on a pro forma basis reflects weaker conditions in the chemical, power and general industrial markets, as well as lower production throughput due to lower sales volume combined with a reduction of finished goods inventories, which resulted in unfavorable manufacturing absorption variances.  The decline in operating income, before special items, in 2001 reflects a less profitable product mix.

Consolidated Results

 

Gross profit increased 12.3% to $677.7 million in 2002, compared with $603.5 million in 2001 reflecting the 2002 acquisition of IFC.  The gross profit margin was 30.1% for 2002, compared with 31.5% for 2001.  On a pro forma basis for 2002 and 2001, including IFC, gross profit was $730.4 million and $778.4 million, which yielded gross profit margins of 30.3% and 31.9%, respectively.  Gross profit margin was negatively impacted by an unfavorable product mix of higher sales volumes of lower margin project business and a lower mix of historically more profitable quick turnaround business, including lower volumes of chemical and industrial pumps, industrial valves and service related activities.  The quick turnaround business is generally related to more standard products, parts and services.  The volumes of this business were down due to reduced profitability of customers in chemical, general industrial, gas pipeline, power and refining industries that are operating either under lower volume conditions or unfavorable price positions due to the economy or currency, unfavorable cost positions due to higher raw material costs or currency, or a combination of the factors above.  In addition, gross profit was adversely impacted by an increase of about $42.4 million of unfavorable manufacturing absorption variances, which were attributable to lower production throughput due to lower sales volumes and efforts to reduce finished goods inventories at the facilities that manufacture products for the chemical and general industrial markets.  Gross profit and related margin were also impacted in 2002 by a negative $5.2 million purchase accounting adjustment associated with the required write-up and subsequent sale of inventory resulting from the acquisition of IFC.  Partially offsetting these negatives was a $1.4 million benefit to gross profit in 2002 from implementing SFAS No. 141 and No. 142 which improved gross profit by $1.4 million for 2002.

 

Gross profit increased by 19.6% during 2001.  The improvement primarily resulted from the full year impact of the IDP acquisition and IDP manufacturing integration synergies that resulted from closing or significantly downsizing a number of pump manufacturing facilities and a number of service and repair facilities.  The benefits were partially offset by a less profitable product mix of chemical process pumps, manual valves and service which was caused by a slowdown in the quick turnaround business.

 

Selling, general and administrative expense was $477.4 million in 2002, $411.3 million in 2001 and $361.6 million in 2000.  The increase in 2002 primarily reflects the impact of the IFC acquisition offset in part by the $18.3 million benefit of implementing SFAS No. 141 and No. 142.  As a percentage of sales, selling, general and administrative expense was 21.2% compared with 21.5% in 2001 and 23.5% in 2000.  The 200 basis-point decrease in the 2001 percentage is generally due to IDP integration savings, resulting from sales force reductions, the IDP headquarters closure and a reduction in incentive compensation due to lower than planned performance and other cost reduction initiatives.  Selling, general and administrative expense in 2002 and 2001 on a pro forma basis, including IFC, was $513.3 million and $518.4 million, which represented 21.3% and 21.2% of such amounts as a percentage of pro forma sales.

 

Restructuring expense of $4.3 million and integration expense of $16.2 million were recognized in 2002 related to the integration of IFC into the Flow Control Division.  Restructuring expense represents severance and other exit costs directly related to Flowserve facility closures and reductions in work force.  Restructuring expense was a benefit of $1.2 million in 2001 compared with a $19.4 million expense in 2000.  The 2001 and 2000 amounts related to the acquisition of IDP, whereas 2002 integration related to IFC.  Integration expense represents period costs associated with acquisition-related reorganizations such as relocation of product lines from closed to receiving facilities, realignment of receiving facilities, performance and retention bonuses, idle manufacturing costs, costs related to the integration team and asset impairments.  Integration expense of $16.2 million in 2002 relates to the IFC acquisition, whereas the $63.0 million in 2001 and $35.2 million in 2000 related to the integration of IDP into the Flowserve Pump Division.  See the section titled “Restructuring and Acquisition Related Charges” in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis for further discussion of restructuring and integration expense.

 

Operating income of  $179.7 million increased 37.8% in 2002 from $130.4 million in 2001.  The increase in operating income reflects the IFC acquisition, the benefit of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142 of $19.7 million and reduced integration and restructuring expenses of $41.3 million.  These benefits were offset in part by market related factors including a less favorable product mix resulting in lower demand for products and services for chemical, power and general industrial markets.  These market factors include a reduced profitability of customers in chemical, general industrial, and power industries that are operating either under lower volume conditions or unfavorable price positions due to the economy or currency, unfavorable cost positions due to higher raw material costs or currency, or a combination of the factors above.  The volumes were lower due to the reduced demand for our products primarily due to the customer market factors discussed above.  Additionally, unfavorable absorption variances of

 

23



 

about $42.4 million from the lower volume and reduction in finished goods inventories negatively impacted operating income.  On a pro forma basis for 2002 and 2001, including IFC, operating income was $194.8 million and $190.8 million or 8.1% and 7.8%, respectively, as a percentage of pro forma sales.  Operating income improved 47.3% in 2001 from 2000 operating income of $88.5 million reflecting the synergy benefits from the IDP acquisition.  Operating income in 2001 reflected the full year benefits of the IDP acquisition as well as its related synergy benefits.

 

Interest expense declined 20.2% to $95.5 million in 2002, compared with $119.6 million in 2001 and $72.7 million in 2000.  Approximately $16.3 million of the reduction of interest expense in 2002 resulted from lower debt levels associated with the repayment of one-third of the then outstanding Senior Subordinated Notes in the fourth quarter of 2001 with proceeds from a sale of our common shares.  Interest expense was also lower due to lower borrowing spreads associated with the renegotiation of our revolving credit facility and lower interest rates on our variable rate debt.  Approximately 65% of our debt was variable rate debt at December 31, 2002.  Interest expense declined despite approximately $274 million of incremental borrowings associated with the IFC acquisition due to lower interest rates and $234 million of debt repayments during the year.  Increased interest expense in 2001 reflected a full year of interest costs associated with the financing of the IDP acquisition partially offset by the benefit of lower interest rates on our variable rate debt.

 

Our effective tax rate for 2002 was 36.8%, compared with 47.1% in 2001 and 34.8% in 2000.  The 2002 rate was lower than the 2001 rate due to the elimination of goodwill amortization, resulting from the implementation of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142, which was not deductible for income tax purposes.  In addition, the relatively low pretax earnings in 2001 compared with 2002 magnified the impact of permanent tax differences, creating a more severe impact to the 2001 effective tax rate.  The increase in the rate in 2001 reflects IDP’s mix of business conducted in foreign taxing jurisdictions with higher tax rates.  The effective tax rate is based upon current earnings and on estimates of future taxable earnings for each domestic and international location as well as the estimated impact of tax planning strategies.  Changes in any of these and other factors could impact the tax rate in future periods.

 

During 2002, we recognized extraordinary expenses of $7.4 million, net of tax, or $0.14 per share compared with $17.9 million or $0.46 per share for 2001.  These 2002 expenses relate to the write-off of unamortized prepaid financing fees and other related fees resulting from the debt amendments required pursuant to the IFC acquisition during the second quarter and from the optional debt repayments during the third and fourth quarters of 2002.  The 2001 extraordinary item related to the prepayment premium, other direct costs and write-off of unamortized prepaid financing fees and discount as a result of the early extinguishments of $133 million of 12.25% Senior Subordinated Notes, using proceeds from a sale of our common shares.  In 2000, we recognized a net of tax extraordinary expense which totaled $2.1 million or $0.05 per share, related to the repayment of our outstanding indebtedness which was required as part of the financing to acquire IDP.

 

Earnings Per Share - diluted

 

 

Net earnings increased in 2002 to $45.5 million, or $0.87 per share, compared with a loss of $10.5 million ($0.27 per share) in 2001 and earnings of $10.8 million ($0.29 per share) in 2000.  The implementation of SFAS No. 141 and No. 142 resulted in an increase of $19.7 million or $0.24 per share, to earnings in 2002.  Special items in 2002 negatively impacted net earnings by $0.45 per share, including the $0.14 per share extraordinary loss.  Special items in 2001 negatively impacted net earnings by $0.83 per

 

24



 

share.  Earnings in 2001 benefited from IDP synergies.  However, higher interest, integration costs and the aforementioned extraordinary items more than offset those benefits.

 

Average diluted shares increased by 32.8% to 52.2 million for 2002, compared with 39.3 million in 2001 and 37.8 million in 2000.  The 2002 increase in shares reflects the average weighted impact from the equity offering completed in April 2002 to finance the IFC acquisition and the full year impact of the equity offering completed in November 2001, the proceeds of which were used to retire debt.  The increase in 2001 reflects the partial year impact from the November 2001 equity offering.

 

Comprehensive income improved to $25.7 million from losses of $71.0 million in 2001 and $8.5 million in 2000.  The 2002 improvement reflects improved net earnings and a favorable foreign currency translation adjustment resulting from the strengthening of the Euro, partially offset by declines in the value of pension plan assets.  The decrease in comprehensive income in 2001 resulted from decreased net earnings in part due to IDP integration expenses and an extraordinary loss, increased minimum pension expense and weakening of the Euro and Latin American currencies.

 

Operating results before special items and pro forma results should not be considered an alternative to operating results calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

RESTRUCTURING AND ACQUISITION RELATED CHARGES

 

Restructuring Costs – IFC

 

In conjunction with the IFC acquisition during 2002, we initiated an integration program designed to reduce costs and eliminate excess capacity by closing seven valve facilities and reducing sales and related support personnel.  Our actions, approved and committed to in 2002, are expected to result in a gross reduction of approximately 889 positions and a net reduction of approximately 662 positions based on information available as of the date of this Form 10-K/A filing.  Through December 31, 2002, 442 gross positions and 268 net positions had been eliminated pursuant to the program.  Net position eliminations represent the gross positions eliminated from the closed facilities offset by positions added at the receiving facilities, which are required to produce the products transferred into the receiving facilities.  We expect to realize at least $20 million of annual run rate savings as a result of our integration program.  Run rate savings reflect the quantification of synergies achieved at December 31, 2002 on an annualized basis.  The savings reflect the benefit of lower payroll and benefit costs resulting from the net position eliminations, partially offset by increased outsourcing costs, and elimination of fixed costs at the closed facilities including depreciation, utilities, lease expense, insurance, taxes and other fixed costs.

 

Concurrent with the acquisition, we established a restructuring reserve of $11.0 million in the second quarter of 2002, and increased the reserve by $2.8 million and $6.8 million in the third and fourth quarters of 2002 for this program.  Costs associated with the closure of our facilities of $4.3 million in 2002 have been recognized as a restructuring expense in the statement of operations.  We also recognized a restructuring reserve consisting of $16.3 million of costs and related deferred taxes of $5.1 million.  Such costs related to the closure of IFC facilities became part of the purchase price allocation of the transaction.  The effect of these closure costs increased the amount of goodwill otherwise recognizable as a result of the IFC acquisition.

The acquisition-related activities resulted in integration costs as categorized above and further defined as follows.  Personnel and related costs include payroll, benefits, consulting fees, and retention and integration performance bonuses paid to our employees and contractors for the development, management and execution of the integration plan.  Transfer of product lines includes costs associated with the transfer of product lines as well as realignment required in the receiving facilities.  Asset impairments reflect the loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment at the facilities closed and disposal of inventory for discontinued product lines when the facilities were combined.  The other category includes costs associated with information technology integration, legal entity consolidations, legal entity name changes, signage, new product literature and other.  None of these items individually amounted to greater than $0.5 million.

 

An additional $24.3 million of restructuring and integration costs, including capitalized amounts, were incurred in 2003 for the IFC acquisition. Payments from the restructuring accrual will continue into 2004 and 2005 due to the timing of severance obligations in Europe.  The impact of additional restructuring activities will be recorded as obligations are incurred under these programs.  Total restructuring and integration costs are expected to be approximately three times the annual run rate of integration savings.

 

Restructuring Costs - IDP

 

In August 2000, in conjunction with the IDP acquisition during 2000, we initiated an integration program designed to reduce costs and eliminate excess capacity by closing or significantly downsizing eight pump manufacturing facilities and eight service and repair facilities; closing IDP’s former headquarters; and reducing redundant sales, administrative and related support personnel.  These actions, approved and committed to in 2000, resulted in the gross reduction of 1,500 positions and a net reduction of 1,100 positions.  Net positions reflect the gross positions eliminated from the closed facilities offset by positions added at the receiving facilities required to produce the products transferred into the receiving facilities.  As a result of these activities, we generated approximately $90 million of annual synergy savings.  The savings reflect the benefit of lower payroll and benefit costs resulting from the net position eliminations, partially offset by increased outsourcing costs, and elimination of fixed costs at the closed facilities including depreciation, utilities, lease expense, insurance, taxes and other fixed costs.  We completed our integration and restructuring activities related to the IDP acquisition during 2001, and the majority of the expenditures were completed as of December 31, 2002.

 

We recognized $65 million in restructuring costs, comprised of $42 million related to the IDP operations acquired and $23 million related to our operations.  The $42 million related to IDP operations, reduced by deferred tax effects of $16 million, resulted in recognition of $26 million of incremental goodwill.  The $23 million related to our operations was recognized as restructuring expense in the consolidated statement of operations in 2000 and 2001.

The majority of the funding of the restructuring activities was completed in 2002.  Revisions to the accrual were recorded in 2000 and 2001 to reflect actual results and changes in estimates including an incremental accrual in 2000, which was required based upon updated actuarial information for postretirement and pension expense relating to finalization of union negotiations for closed facilities.  Of the final adjustment of $2.9 million in 2001, $1.2 million related to Flowserve facilities and was reflected as negative restructuring expense and the remaining $1.7 million related to IDP facilities and was recorded as a reduction to goodwill.  Non-cash reductions reflect reclassification from the restructuring accrual to post-retirement benefits and pension liabilities in 2000 and to other accrued liabilities in 2001 and 2002.

 

Severance costs include costs associated with involuntary termination benefits, including enhancements to certain severed employees of long-term retirement benefits of $16.4 million, and the costs related to exiting of facilities that would provide no future benefit.  Other exit costs of $12.6 million included $5.1 million of payroll and consulting costs to execute the closure program, $2.5 million of facility clean-up costs including environmental, $2.1 million relocation costs for IDP personnel, $1.7 million of costs to physically dispose of patterns and equipment and $1.2 million of other costs including lease termination and legal costs.

The acquisition-related activities resulted in integration costs as categorized above and further defined as follows.  Personnel and related costs include payroll, benefits, consulting fees, severances, and retention and integration performance bonuses paid to our employees and contractors for the development, management and execution of the integration plan.  Transfer of product lines includes costs associated with the transfer of product lines as well as realignment required in the receiving facilities.  Tulsa divestiture reflects the book value loss on the sale of our Tulsa facility that was required pursuant to an agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice.  Asset impairments reflect the loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment at the facilities closed and disposal of inventory for product lines discontinued when the facilities were combined.  The other category includes costs associated with information technology, legal entity consolidations, legal entity name changes, signage, new product literature and other.  None of these items individually amounted to greater than $0.5 million.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Cash Flow Analysis

 

Cash generated by operations and borrowings available under our existing revolving credit facility are our primary sources of short-term liquidity.  Cash flows provided by operating activities in 2002 were $248.9 million, reflecting an improvement of $296.6 million compared with a use of funds of $47.7 million in 2001 and cash provided of $18.4 million in 2000.  Our cash balance at December 31, 2002 was $49.2 million, an increase of $27.7 million from year-end 2001.

 

The improved operating cash flow in 2002 reflects higher earnings of about $56.0 million, lower outflows of about $58.4 million for acquisition-related integration and restructuring costs and improved working capital utilization in 2002.  In particular, reductions in accounts receivable generated $76.7 million of operating cash flow in 2002, which included a $29 million benefit of foreign factoring programs.  As a result of reductions in accounts receivable, days’ sales outstanding at December 31, 2002 improved to 71 days compared with 76 days at December 31, 2001.  Inventory reductions, primarily finished goods, generated $29.5 million of cash during 2002.  Also, cash flows from operations in 2002 benefited from a $23 million tax refund related to the utilization of net operating loss carrybacks enabled by recently enacted tax law amendments in the U.S.

 

Cash flows from operating activities for 2001 were significantly below 2000 cash flows, due to an increase in restructuring and integration payments of about $31.9 million, higher interest payments of around $79.5 million generally attributable to the August 2000 acquisition of IDP and increases in working capital of about $102.9 million.  The primary reasons for the increase in working capital were an increase in inventories of $44.6 million in support of backlog for future shipments and increased finished goods safety stock to meet customer deliveries during the integration process and during a systems conversion at a valve plant.  At December 31, 2001, we had drawn $70.0 million of revolving credit primarily to fund integration activities and increases in working capital.

 

We believe cash flows from operating activities combined with availability under our existing revolving credit agreement are sufficient to enable us to meet our cash flow needs.  However, cash flows from operations could be adversely affected by economic, political and other risks associated with sales of our products, operational factors, competition, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and fluctuations in interest rates, among other factors.

 

During 2002, we also generated $16.9 million of cash flow related to exercise of employee stock options, which are reflected in financing activities of the consolidated statement of cash flows.

 

Although no contributions were required in 2002, we contributed $24.5 million into our domestic pension plan during 2003. The funding was required primarily as a result of the decline in the value of the pension plan assets due to negative market returns over the past two years and an increase in the number of plan participants primarily due to the IDP and IFC acquisitions. The amount of funding during 2003 resulted from our desired funding status, pension asset returns and our results of operations and cash flows during 2003.

Payments for Acquisitions

 

On May 2, 2002, we completed the acquisition of Invensys plc’s flow control division (“IFC”) for a contractual purchase price of $535 million, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the purchase and sale agreement.  In addition, we incurred $6.1 million of costs associated with consummation of the acquisition including investment banking, legal, actuarial and accounting fees.  The total purchase price including such costs through December 31, 2002 was $541.1 million.  We finalized the IFC purchase price allocation during the second quarter of 2003.

 

By acquiring IFC, one of the world’s foremost manufacturers of valves, actuators and associated flow control products, we believe that we became the world’s second largest manufacturer of valves.  We financed the IFC acquisition and associated transaction costs by issuing 9.2 million shares of common stock in April 2002 for net proceeds of approximately $276 million and through new borrowings under our senior secured credit facilities.

 

We allocated the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair value at the date of the acquisition.  At December 31, 2002, these allocations include $45 million for amortized intangibles, $28 million of indefinite lived intangible assets and $297 million recorded as goodwill.  The operating results of IFC have been included in our consolidated statements of operations from May 2, 2002, the date of acquisition.

 

We regularly evaluate acquisition opportunities of various sizes.  The cost and terms of any financing to be raised in conjunction with any acquisition is a critical consideration in any such evaluation.

 

Capital Expenditures

(Amounts in millions)

 

 

Capital expenditures were $30.9 million in 2002, compared with $35.2 million in 2001 and $27.8 million in 2000.  Capital expenditures were funded primarily by operating cash flows and bank borrowings.  For each of the three years, capital expenditures were invested in new and replacement machinery and equipment, information technology and acquisition integration activities including structures and equipment required at receiving facilities.  Cash proceeds from the disposal of fixed assets were $8.7 million in both 2002 and 2001 compared with $5.4 million in 2000.  These disposals relate primarily to the sale of facilities and equipment that became obsolete as a result of our acquisition integration-related programs.

Senior Credit Facilities

 

During the second quarter of 2002, in connection with the IFC acquisition, we amended and restated our senior credit facilities, to provide for:

 

      an incremental Tranche A Term Loan in an aggregate principal amount of $95.3 million; and

      a new Tranche C Term Loan facility of $700 million, to be used to repay all of the existing Tranche B Term Loan facility of $468.8 million, repay $11.3 million of the existing Tranche A Term Loan, reduce the then outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility by $40 million, and provide funds to be used to finance the IFC acquisition.

 

As part of the amended and restated senior credit facility, several covenants were modified, including various financial ratios, interest rates were adjusted and other terms of the facility were changed primarily to allow for the IFC acquisition.  The senior credit facilities are collateralized by substantially all of our U.S. assets and a pledge of 65% of the stock of our non-U.S. subsidiaries.

 

The term loans require scheduled principal payments, which began on June 30, 2001 for the Tranche A Term Loan and on December 31, 2002 for the Tranche C Term Loan.  The Tranche A and Tranche C Term Loans have ultimate maturities of June 2006 and June 2009, respectively.  The term loans bear floating interest rates based on LIBOR plus a borrowing spread, or the prime

 

30



 

rate plus a borrowing spread, at our option.  The borrowing spread for the senior credit facilities can increase or decrease based on the leverage ratio as defined in the credit facility agreement and on our public debt ratings.  In 2002, we made $33.8 million of mandatory and $170.0 million of optional principal repayments on the term loans.  Combined with a net reduction in our revolving credit line of $30 million, we made aggregate debt payments of $233.8 million in 2002.

 

As a result of the $170.0 million of optional debt prepayments during 2002, previously paid deferred financing fees were written off and recognized as an extraordinary loss of $1.1 million, after tax consideration, summarized as follows:

(1)   Does not include the $6.3 million extraordinary loss associated with repayment of Tranche B Term Loan during the second quarter of 2002, which yields total extraordinary losses of $7.4 million.

 

The tax benefit associated with the extraordinary losses result is due to the deductibility for U.S. income tax purposes of the write-off of prepaid financing fees.

 

Under the senior credit facilities, we also have a $300 million revolving credit facility that expires in June 2006.  The revolving credit facility also allows us to issue up to $200 million in letters of credit.  As of December 31, 2002, there were no amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility; however, $51.8 million of letters of credit had been issued under the facility, which reduced borrowing capacity of the facility to $248.2 million.

 

Interest expense for 2003 was lower than in 2002, and was impacted by a variety of factors including changes in LIBOR rates and/or credit facility borrowing spreads, outstanding debt levels during the year, the amount of interest rate swaps in place and costs thereof, alterations to the capital structure, changes in debt ratings, incurrence of other related financing costs and the amount, if any, and timing of accelerated debt repayment and its associated impact on the aforementioned costs.

 

We are required, under certain circumstances as defined in the credit facility, to use a percentage of excess cash generated from operations to reduce the outstanding principal of the term loans in the following year.  Because of the optional prepayments in 2002, no additional principal payments became due in 2003 under this provision.

 

Senior Subordinated Notes

 

At December 31, 2002, we had $188.5 million and EUR 65 million (equivalent to $68 million) in face value of Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding.  These notes were issued during 2000 by us and a Dutch subsidiary, Flowserve Finance B.V.  At the date of issuance, the Senior Subordinated Notes, due in August 2010, resulted in proceeds of $285.9 million (U.S. dollar denominated notes) or $290.0 million face amount less discount of $4.1 million and EUR 98.6 million (Euro denominated notes) or EUR 100 million face amount less discount of EUR 1.4 million, which then equated to $89.2 million.  The U.S. dollar denominated notes and the Euro denominated notes are general unsecured obligations of us and of Flowserve Finance B.V., respectively, subordinated in right of payment to all of our and of Flowserve Finance B.V.’s existing and future senior indebtedness and are guaranteed on a full, unconditional, joint and several basis by our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries.

 

The Senior Subordinated Notes were originally issued at a discount to yield 12.5%, but bear interest at 12.25%.  Approximately one-third of these Senior Subordinated Notes were repurchased at a premium in 2001 utilizing proceeds of an equity offering.  Beginning in August 2005, all remaining Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding become callable by us at 106.125% of face value.  Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in February and August.

 

Common Stock Offerings

 

During 2002, we completed an offering of 9.2 million shares, which generated approximately $276 million of net proceeds.  These proceeds were used to partially fund the IFC acquisition and to make additional repayments of borrowings under our senior credit facility.

 

31



 

During 2001, we completed an offering of approximately 6.9 million shares of our common stock for net proceeds of approximately $154 million, which we used to:

 

    prepay $101.5 million of the U.S. dollar denominated Senior Subordinated Notes;

 

    prepay EUR 35 million (equivalent to $31 million) of the Euro denominated Senior Subordinated Notes; and

 

    pay associated prepayment premiums and other direct costs.

 

During 2001, we recorded an extraordinary item of $17.9 million, net of $7.1 million of tax, which represented the sum of the prepayment premiums, other direct costs, and the write-off of unamortized prepaid financing fees and discount for the portion of the Notes that we prepaid.

 

Debt Covenants and Other Matters

 

The provisions of our senior credit facilities require us to meet or exceed specified defined financial covenants, including a leverage ratio, an interest coverage ratio and a fixed charge coverage ratio.  Further, the provisions of these and other debt agreements generally limit or restrict indebtedness, liens, sale and leaseback transactions, asset sales, and payment of dividends, capital expenditures, and other activities.  As of December 31, 2002, we were in compliance with all covenants under our debt facilities, as illustrated below:

 

    an actual leverage ratio of 3.69 compared with a permitted maximum of 4.0;

 

    an actual interest coverage ratio of 3.10 compared with a permitted minimum of 2.25; and

 

    an actual fixed charge ratio of 1.59 compared with a required minimum of 1.1.

 

Under the original terms of the credit facilities, the leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio became more onerous over the term of the borrowings.  However, we amended the senior credit during June 2003 such that the following summarizes our future covenant requirements for the maximum leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio.

While we expect to continue to comply with our debt covenants in the future, there can be no assurance that we will do so.  If we fail to comply with our financial covenants, we believe that we could negotiate a waiver of the covenants with our banks.  Such a waiver would likely result in a one-time payment to the banks, increased borrowing spreads and revised covenants, including the financial covenants.

 

The following is a summary of net debt to capital at various dates since 2000 (Restated):

 

December 31, 2002

 

59.2%

December 31, 2001

 

71.8%

December 31, 2000

 

78.1%

 

32



 

The net debt to capital ratio decreased due to the impact of the common stock offerings, repayments of term loans and revolving credit borrowings and increases in shareholders’ equity resulting from improved earnings.  Although this ratio has improved over previous years, we have significant levels of indebtedness relative to shareholders’ equity.  While this ratio is not necessarily indicative of our ability to raise funds, our level of indebtedness may increase our vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions, may require us to dedicate a substantial portion of cash flow from operating activities to payments on the indebtedness and could limit our ability to borrow additional funds or raise additional capital.

 

While the IFC acquisition increased the absolute level of indebtedness, we believe that our ability to service debt, as measured by our covenant ratios, debt ratings and net debt to capital ratios, has improved.  This is because the incremental debt as part of financing the purchase of IFC represented only about 50% of the purchase price, while in the covenant ratios, we receive credit for 100% of the pro forma EBITDA of IFC for the four quarter period prior to the acquisition.  Our lenders use EBITDA as a surrogate for earnings and cash flows in our credit agreement.

 

In 2000, we recorded an extraordinary item of $2.1 million, which is net of tax of $1.2 million, for prepayment premiums and the write-off of prepaid financing fees associated with the prepayment of certain long-term debt.

 

Due to the restatement, we have determined that at September 30, 2001, December 31, 2001 and March 31, 2002, we did not comply by 25 basis points or less with two financial covenants in our then applicable credit agreement, which is no longer in effect.  We believe that we could have undertaken readily available actions to maintain compliance or obtained a waiver or amendment to the then existing credit agreement had we then known this situation.  Except for these periods, we have complied with all covenants under our debt facilities.  We believe that this matter has no impact on our existing debt agreements and that our outstanding debt is properly classified in our consolidated balance sheet.

PENSION AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OBLIGATIONS

 

We sponsor several defined benefit pension plans and postretirement health care plans.  Our recorded liability for these plans was $272.9 million at December 31, 2002, $146.8 million at December 31, 2001 and $122.2 million at December 31, 2000.  We determined the value of the pension and postretirement benefits liabilities based on actuarial valuations.  Inherent in these valuations are key assumptions, including discount rates, market value of plan assets, life expectancy, expected return on plan assets and assumed rate of increase in wages or in health care costs.  Current market conditions, including changes in rates of returns, interest rates and medical inflation rates, are considered in selecting these assumptions.  Changes in the related pension and postretirement benefit costs may occur in the future due to changes in the assumptions used and changes resulting from fluctuations in our number of employees.  As a result of weak market performance of pension plan assets in 2002 and 2001 and an increased number of employees participating in the plans, we increased our minimum pension liability by $42.9 million during 2002 and $16.2 million in 2001, net of tax effects.  Although no contributions were required in 2002, we contributed $24.5 million into our domestic pension plan during 2003.  The funding was required primarily as a result of the decline in the value of the pension plan assets due to negative market returns over the past two years and an increase in the number of plan participants primarily due to the IDP and IFC acquisitions.  The amount of funding during 2003 resulted from our desired funding status, pension asset returns and our results of operations and cash flows during 2003.  We fund contributions to the plans from operating cash flows.

 

ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

 

Pronouncements Implemented

 

During June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”  Adoption of SFAS No. 141 required us to account for all future business combinations occurring after June 30, 2001, using the purchase method.  Pursuant to adoption of SFAS No. 142, we ceased amortizing goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, both of which are now subject to periodic impairment tests. We adopted both SFAS No. 141 and No. 142 effective January 1, 2002.

 

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  SFAS No. 144 addresses significant issues relating to the implementation of SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of,” and develops a single accounting model, based on the framework established in SFAS No. 121 for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale whether such assets are or are not deemed to be a business. SFAS No. 144 also modifies the accounting and disclosure rules for discontinued operations.  We adopted SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002, which resulted in no material effect to the consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” which became effective for us upon its issuance.  SFAS No. 148 provides three transition options for companies that account for stock-based compensation, such as stock options, under the intrinsic-value method to convert to the fair value method.  SFAS No. 148 also revised the prominence and character of the disclosures related to companies’ stock-based compensation.  In complying with the new reporting requirements of SFAS No. 148, we elected to continue using the intrinsic-value method to account for qualifying stock-based compensation, as permitted by SFAS No. 148 for 2002.  We have, however, included the disclosures prescribed by SFAS No. 148 within the consolidated financial statements. For 2003, we are evaluating whether to adopt a transition option to expense stock-based compensation under the provisions of SFAS No. 148.

 

During November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.”  FIN No. 45 generally requires a guarantor to recognize a liability for obligations arising from guarantees.  FIN No. 45 also requires new disclosures for guarantees meeting certain criteria outlined in that pronouncement.  The disclosure requirements of FIN No. 45 are effective for us at December 31, 2002 and have been implemented as of that date.  The recognition and measurement provisions of FIN No. 45 are applicable on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002.

 

In October 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 147, “Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions”, which became effective for us upon issuance.  SFAS No. 147 does not have applicability to us and therefore its implementation did not impact our financial position or results of operations.

 

34



 

Pronouncements Not Yet Implemented

 

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.”  SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.  Generally, this pronouncement requires companies to recognize the fair value of liabilities for retiring their facilities and equipment at the point that legal obligations associated with their retirement are incurred, with an offsetting increase to the carrying value of the facility.  The expense associated with the retirement becomes a component of a facility’s depreciation, which is recognized over its useful life. Although SFAS No. 143 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2003, we do not believe the adoption will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations due to limited abandonment and retirement obligations associated with our facilities.

 

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections.”  The most significant impact of SFAS No. 145 is to eliminate the requirement that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt be classified as an extraordinary item unless these items are infrequent and unusual in nature.  SFAS No. 145 is effective for us on January 1, 2003.  Upon adoption of SFAS No. 145, we will reclassify the previously reported extraordinary items, which relate to early extinguishment of debt, as a component of earnings before income taxes.

 

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.”  SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized initially at fair value when the liability is incurred.  Under current accounting rules, costs to exit or dispose of an activity are generally recognized at the date that the exit or disposal plan has been committed to and communicated.  SFAS No. 146 is effective for us on January 1, 2003 and will be applied on a prospective basis.

 

During January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.”  FIN No. 46 provides guidance for companies having ownership of variable interest entities, typically referred to as special purpose entities, in determining whether to consolidate such variable interest entities.  FIN No. 46 has immediate applicability for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 or interests in variable interest entities obtained after that date.  For interests in variable interest entities obtained prior to February 1, 2003, FIN No. 46 becomes effective on July 1, 2003.  Because we do not hold an interest in an entity governed by the pronouncement, we do not believe the adoption will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

MARKET RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

We have market risk exposure arising from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rate movements.

 

Our earnings are impacted by changes in short-term interest rates as a result of borrowings under our credit facility, which bear interest based on floating rates.  At December 31, 2002, after the effect of interest rate swaps, we had approximately $714.7 million of variable rate debt obligations outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 4.13%.  A hypothetical change of 100-basis points in the interest rate for these borrowings, assuming constant variable rate debt levels, would have changed interest expense by approximately $7.1 million for 2002.

 

We are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments including interest rate swaps, but we expect all counterparties to meet their obligations given their creditworthiness.  As of December 31, 2002, we had $125.0 million of notional amount in outstanding interest rate swaps with third parties with maturities through November 2006.

 

We employ a foreign currency hedging strategy to minimize potential losses in earnings or cash flows from unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movements.  These strategies also minimize potential gains from favorable exchange rate movements.  Foreign currency exposures arise from transactions, including firm commitments and anticipated transactions, denominated in a currency other than an entity’s functional currency and from foreign-denominated revenues and profits translated back into U.S. dollars.  Based on a sensitivity analysis at December 31, 2002, a 10% adverse change in the foreign currency exchange rates could impact our results of operations by $4.6 million.  The impact by currency in which we have exposure is as follows: Euro - $0.4 million; British pound - $1.0 million; Canadian dollar - $0.6 million; Mexican peso - $0.5 million; Argentinean peso - $0.3 million; Singapore dollar - $0.2 million; Venezuela bolivar - $0.2 million; Swedish krona - $0.2 million; Indian rupee - $0.5 million and all others - $0.7 million.

 

Exposures are hedged primarily with foreign currency forward contracts that generally have maturity dates less than one year.  Our policy allows foreign currency coverage only for identifiable foreign currency exposures and, therefore, we do not enter into foreign currency contracts for trading purposes where the objective would be to generate profits.  As of December 31, 2002, we had a U.S. dollar equivalent of $48.6 million in outstanding forward contracts with third parties compared with $69.4 million in 2001 and $103.9 million in 2000.

 

Generally, we view our investments in foreign subsidiaries from a long-term perspective, and therefore, do not hedge these investments.  We use capital structuring techniques to manage our investment in foreign subsidiaries as deemed necessary.

 

We realized foreign currency transaction gains (losses) of $(2.0) million in 2002, $0.6 million in 2001 and $(1.5) million in 2000, which is included in other expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.  We incurred foreign currency translation gains (losses) of $23.3 million in 2002, $(40.1) million in 2001 and $(18.2) million in 2000, which are included in other comprehensive income.  The currency gains in 2002 reflect strengthening of the Euro versus the U.S. dollar, partially offset by weakening of the Argentinean peso, Brazilian real and Venezuelan bolivar.  The currency losses in 2001 and 2000 were the result of a general strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus the Euro and other currencies of our foreign subsidiaries.

 

EURO CONVERSION

 

On January 1, 2002, Euro-denominated bills and coins were issued and 11 European Union member states (Germany, France, the Netherlands, Austria, Italy, Spain, Finland, Ireland, Belgium, Portugal and Luxembourg) adopted the Euro as their common national currency whereby only the Euro is accepted as legal currency tender.  Our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows were not materially impacted by the Euro conversion.

ITEM 8.                                       FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

 

Report of Independent Auditors

 

The Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Flowserve Corporation

 

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income/(loss), shareholders’ equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Flowserve Corporation and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated its previously issued financial statements for each of the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

 

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 “Business Combinations” and No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” on January 1, 2002.  Additionally, as discussed in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative and Hedging Activities,” as amended, on January 1, 2001.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

(Unless otherwise indicated, dollar amounts are in thousands, except per share data)

 

NOTE 1.                              SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

 

Flowserve produces engineered and industrial pumps, industrial valves, control valves, nuclear valves, valve actuation and precision mechanical seals, and provides a range of related flow management services worldwide, primarily for the process industries.  Equipment manufactured and serviced by us is predominately used in industries that deal with difficult-to-handle and corrosive fluids as well as environments with extreme temperatures, pressure, horsepower and speed.  Our businesses are affected by economic conditions in the U.S. and other countries where our products are sold and serviced, by the cyclical nature of the petroleum, chemical, power, water and other industries served, by the relationship of the U.S. dollar to other currencies, and by the demand for and pricing of our customers’ products.  We believe the impact of these conditions is somewhat mitigated by the strength and diversity of our product lines, geographic coverage and significant installed base, which provides potential for an annuity stream of revenue from parts and services.

 

Principles Of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries.  Intercompany profits, transactions and balances have been eliminated.  Investments in unconsolidated affiliated companies, which represent all nonmajority ownership interests, are carried on the equity basis, which approximates our equity interest in their underlying net book value.

 

Basis Of Comparison

 

Certain amounts in 2001 and 2000 have been reclassified to conform with the 2002 presentation.  Effective January 1, 2003, we realigned certain small sites between segments.  Accordingly, the segment information for all periods presented herein has been reported under the new organization structure.

 

Use Of Estimates

 

The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires the use of estimates and assumptions to determine reported amounts of certain assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.  Our most significant estimates include our:

 

          allowance for doubtful accounts;

          reserve for excess and obsolete inventories;

          deferred tax asset valuation allowances;

          restructuring accruals;

          legal and environmental accruals;

          warranty accruals;

          insurance accruals;

          pension and postretirement benefit obligations; and

          valuation of goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and other long-lived assets.

 

These significant estimates are reviewed quarterly with our Audit/Finance Committee.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues are recognized based on the shipping terms agreed to with the customer and fulfillment of all but inconsequential or perfunctory actions required, which is the point of title transfer, unless the customer order requires formal acceptance under which circumstances revenue is not recognized until formal acceptance has been received.  Revenue on service contracts is recognized after the services have been rendered and accepted by the customer.  In addition, our policy requires prior to shipment the persuasive evidence of an arrangement, a fixed or determinable sales price and reasonable assurance of

 

42



 

collectibility.  Revenue for longer-term contracts defined as contracts longer than nine-months in duration, with contract values over $750,000 and progress billings from the customer are recorded on the percentage of completion method calculated on a cost-to-cost basis.  Percentage of completion represents approximately 5-10% of consolidated revenues.  Revenues generated under fixed fee service and repair contracts, which represent approximately 1% of consolidated revenues, are recognized ratably over the term of the contract, which ranges from 2-5 years.

 

Allowance For Doubtful Accounts And Credit Risk

 

Accounts receivable are stated net of the allowance for doubtful accounts of $21,010 and $20,800 at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

 

The allowance for doubtful accounts is established based on estimates of the amount of uncollectible accounts receivable.  The amount of the allowance is determined based upon the aging of the receivable, customer credit history, industry and market segment information, economic trends and conditions, credit reports and customer financial condition.  Customer credit issues, customer bankruptcies or general economic conditions can also affect the estimates.

 

Credit risk may be mitigated by the large number of customers in our customer base across many different geographic regions and an analysis of the creditworthiness of such customers.  Additionally, we maintain a credit insurance policy for our European subsidiaries.  Under the policy, we generally receive funds from the third party insurer, net of deductible, in instances where customers covered by the policy are unable to pay.

 

As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, we do not believe that we had significant concentrations of credit risk.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower-of-cost or market.  Cost is determined for U.S. inventories by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and for other inventories by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.  Reserves for excess and obsolete inventories are based on our assessment of market conditions for our products determined by historical usage and estimated future demand.  These estimates are generally not subject to significant volatility, except for product rationalizations generally associated with acquisition integration programs, due to the relatively long life cycle of our products.

 

Income Taxes, Deferred Taxes And Tax Valuation Allowances

 

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date.  Valuation allowances reflect the likelihood of the recoverability of any such assets. We record valuation allowances to reflect the estimated amount of deferred tax assets that may not be realized based upon our analysis of existing net operating losses and tax credits by jurisdiction and expectations of our ability to utilize these tax attributes through a review of past, current and estimated future taxable income and establishment of tax strategies.  These estimates could be impacted by changes in future taxable income and the results of tax strategies.

 

Restructuring Reserves

 

Restructuring reserves are generally established in conjunction with an acquisition.  Such reserves reflect many estimates including costs pertaining to employee separation, settlements of contractual obligations and other matters associated with exiting a facility.  Restructuring costs related to facilities and employees of an acquired business generally become a component of goodwill, whereas non-acquisition related restructuring costs are recorded as restructuring expense in the statement of operations.  Reserve requirements for each restructuring plan are assessed quarterly and susceptible to adjustment due to revisions of cost estimates and other changes in planned restructuring activities.

 

43



 

Warranty Accruals

 

Warranty obligations are based upon product failure rates, materials usage and service delivery costs.  We estimate our warranty provisions based upon an analysis of all identified or expected claims and an estimate of the cost to resolve those claims.  The estimates of expected claims are generally a factor of historical claims.  Changes in claim rates, differences between actual and expected warranty costs and our facility rationalization activities could impact warranty obligation estimates.

 

Insurance Accruals

 

Insurance accruals are recorded based upon an analysis of our claim loss history, insurance deductibles, policy limits and an estimate of incurred but not reported claims.  The estimates are based upon information received from our insurance company adjusters.  Changes in claims and differences between actual and expected claim losses could impact the accrual in the future.

 

Pension And Postretirement Benefits Obligations

 

Determination of the value of the pension and postretirement benefits liabilities is based on estimates made by management in consultation with independent actuaries.  Inherent in these valuations are key assumptions including discount rates, market value of plan assets, expected return on plan assets, life expectancy and assumed rate of increase in wages or in health care costs.  Current market conditions, including changes in rates of returns, interest rates and medical inflation rates are considered in selecting these assumptions.  Changes in the related pension and postretirement benefit costs may occur in the future due to changes in the assumptions used and changes resulting from fluctuations in the number of plan participants.

 

Valuation Of Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets And Other Long-Lived Assets

 

We test the value of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually in the fourth quarter or whenever events or circumstances indicate such assets may be impaired.  The test involves significant judgment in estimating projections of fair value generated through future performance of each of our reporting units which correlate to our operating segments.  Each operating segment constitutes a business with discrete financial information that is regularly reviewed by management.  We consider each of our three operating segments to constitute distinct reporting units and assess impairment at the operating segment level.  The net realizable value of other long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, is reviewed periodically, when indicators of potential impairments are present, based upon an assessment of the estimated future cash flows related to those assets.

 

Due to uncertain market conditions and potential changes in strategy and product portfolio, it is possible that forecasts used to support asset carrying values may change in the future, which could result in non-cash charges that would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

We translate the assets and liabilities of our foreign affiliates at current exchange rates, while we translate income and expenses at average rates for the period.  Translation gains and losses are generally reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss.

 

Transaction and translation gains and losses arising from intercompany balances are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss when the underlying transaction stems from a long-term equity investment or from debt designated as not due in the foreseeable future.  Otherwise, we recognize transaction gains and losses arising from intercompany transactions as a component of income.  Where intercompany balances are not long-term investment related or not designated as due beyond the foreseeable future, we generally mitigate risk associated with transaction gains and losses by entering into forward exchange contracts.  See Note 9 for further discussion of these contracts.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

At December 31, 2002, we had several stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 8.  We account for those plans under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for

 

44



 

Stock Issued to Employees,” and related Interpretations.  Generally, no stock-based employee compensation cost is reflected in net earnings for stock option grants, as all options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to or in excess of the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.  Awards of restricted stock are generally valued at the market price of our common stock on the date of grant and recorded as unearned compensation within shareholder’s equity.  The unearned compensation is amortized to compensation expense over the vesting period of the restricted stock.

 

The following table illustrates the effect on net earnings and earnings (loss) per share if we had applied the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” to stock-based employee compensation.

Because the determination of the fair value of all options granted includes an expected volatility factor and because additional option grants are expected to be made each year, the above pro forma disclosures are not representative of pro forma effects for future years.

 

Business Combinations

 

All business combinations referred to in these financial statements used the purchase method of accounting, under which we allocate the purchase price to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets, recognizing goodwill when the purchase price exceeds fair value of such identifiable assets.  Net assets of the companies acquired are recorded at their fair value on the date of acquisition and any excess of purchase price over fair value of the identifiable net assets is recorded as goodwill.  Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141 requires use of the purchase method for all business combinations completed after June 30, 2001.

 

Short-Term Investments

 

We place our temporary cash investments with financial institutions and, by policy, invest in those institutions and instruments that have minimal credit and market risk.  These investments, with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased, are classified as cash equivalents.  They are highly liquid with principal values not subject to significant risk of change due to interest rate fluctuations.

 

45



 

Property, Plant and Equipment, and Depreciation

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated on the basis of cost.  Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets for financial statement purposes and by accelerated methods for income tax purposes.  The estimated useful lives of the assets are:

 

Buildings and improvements

 

10 to 40 years

Furniture and fixtures

 

3 to 7 years

Machinery and equipment

 

3 to 12 years

Capital leases

 

3 to 25 years

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets, excluding trademarks which are considered to have an indefinite life, consist primarily of engineering drawings, distribution networks, software, patents and other items that are being amortized over their useful lives generally ranging from 9 to 40 years.  These assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred.

 

Legal And Environmental Accruals

 

Legal and environmental reserves are recorded based upon a case-by-case analysis of the facts, circumstances and related costs.  The costs relating to legal and environmental liabilities are estimated and recorded when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and such loss is estimable.  Assessments of legal and environmental costs are based on information obtained from our independent and in-house experts and our loss experience in similar situations.  The estimates may vary in the future due to new developments regarding the facts and circumstances of each matter.

 

Derivatives and Hedging Activities

 

We enter into forward contracts for purposes of hedging certain transactions denominated in foreign currencies.  As part of our risk management strategy, we also enter into interest rate swap agreements for the purpose of hedging our exposure to floating interest rates on certain portions of our debt.  We have a risk-management and derivatives policy statement outlining the conditions under which we can enter into hedging or forward transactions.

 

We employ a foreign currency hedging strategy to minimize potential losses in earnings or cash flows from unfavorable foreign currency exchange rate movements.  These strategies also minimize potential gains from favorable exchange rate movements.  Foreign currency exposures arise from transactions, including firm commitments and anticipated transactions, denominated in a currency other than an entity’s functional currency and from foreign-denominated revenues and profits translated into U.S. dollars.  The primary currencies to which we have exposure are the Euro, British pound, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Japanese yen, Singapore dollar, Brazilian real, Australian dollar, Argentinean peso and Venezuelan bolivar.

 

Beginning January 1, 2001, all derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value.  On the date that we enter into a derivative contract, we designate the derivative as (1) a hedge of (a) a forecasted transaction or (b) the variability of cash flows that are to be received or paid in connection with a recognized asset or liability (a “cash flow” hedge); or (2) a foreign currency fair value or cash flow hedge (a “foreign currency” hedge).  Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is highly effective, designated and qualified as a cash flow hedge, to the extent that the hedge is effective, are recorded in other comprehensive income, until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged transaction.  Changes in the fair value of foreign currency hedges are recorded in other comprehensive income since they satisfy the criteria for a cash flow hedge.  Any hedge ineffectiveness (which represents the amount by which the changes in the fair value of the derivative do not mirror the change in the cash flow of the forecasted transaction) is recorded in current period earnings.

 

We formally document all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as our risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions.  This process includes linking all derivatives that are designated as fair value, cash flow, or foreign currency hedges to (1) specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or (2)

 

46



 

specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions.  We also formally assess (both at the inception of the hedge and on an ongoing basis) whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of hedged items and whether those derivatives may be expected to remain highly effective in future periods.

 

We discontinue hedge accounting prospectively when:

 

            the derivative no longer effectively offsets changes in the fair value or cash flows of a hedged item (such as firm commitments or forecasted transactions);

            the derivative expires, terminates or is sold;

            the forecasted transaction is not probable to occur;  or

            management determines that designating the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.

 

When we discontinue hedge accounting because it is no longer probable that the forecasted transaction will occur in the originally expected period, we reclassify the gain or loss on the derivative remaining in accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings.  In all situations in which we discontinue hedge accounting and the derivative remains outstanding, we will carry the derivative at its fair value on the balance sheet, recognizing changes in the fair value in current period earnings.

 

Research And Development Expense

 

Research and development costs are charged to expense when incurred.  Aggregate research and development costs were $24.4 million in 2002, $23.4 million in 2001 and $24.8 million in 2000.

 

Fair Values Of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of our financial instruments approximate fair value at December 31, 2002, except for our debt, which had a carrying value of $1,094 million and an estimated fair value of  $1,119 million.  The debt had a carrying value of $1,041 million and an estimated fair value of $1,077 million at December 31, 2001.

Options outstanding with an exercise price greater than the average market price of the common stock were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share.  The weighted average number of such options totaled 1,171,411 and 3,413,411 for 2002 and 2000, respectively.  For 2001, the computation of diluted net loss per ordinary share was antidilutive, and therefore as required under SFAS No. 128, the amounts reported for basic and diluted net loss per ordinary share were the same.

 

Accounting Developments

Pronouncements Implemented

 

During June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”  Adoption of SFAS No. 141 required us to account for all future business combinations occurring after June 30, 2001, using the purchase method.  Pursuant to adoption of SFAS No. 142, we ceased amortizing goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, both of which are now subject to periodic impairment tests. We adopted both SFAS No. 141 and No. 142 effective January 1, 2002.

 

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  SFAS No. 144 addresses significant issues relating to the implementation of SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets To Be Disposed Of,” and develops a single accounting model, based on the framework established in SFAS No. 121 for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale whether such assets are or are not deemed to be a business. SFAS No. 144 also modifies the accounting and disclosure rules for discontinued operations.  We adopted SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002, which resulted in no material effect to the consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” which became effective for us upon its issuance.  SFAS No. 148 provides three transition options for companies that account for stock-based

compensation, such as stock options, under the intrinsic-value method to convert to the fair value method.  SFAS No. 148 also revised the prominence and character of the disclosures related to companies’ stock-based compensation.  In complying with the new reporting requirements of SFAS No. 148, we elected to continue using the intrinsic-value method to account for qualifying stock-based compensation, as permitted by SFAS No. 148 for 2002.  We have, however, included the disclosures prescribed by SFAS No. 148 within the consolidated financial statements. For 2003, we are evaluating whether to adopt a transition option to expense stock-based compensation under the provisions of SFAS No. 148.

 

During November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.”  FIN No. 45 generally requires a guarantor to recognize a liability for obligations arising from guarantees.  FIN No. 45 also requires new disclosures for guarantees meeting certain criteria outlined in that pronouncement.  The disclosure requirements of FIN No. 45 are effective for us at December 31, 2002 and have been implemented as of that date.  The recognition and measurement provisions of FIN No. 45 are applicable on a prospective basis for guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002.

 

In October 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 147, “Acquisitions of Certain Financial Institutions”, which became effective for us upon issuance.  SFAS No. 147 does not have applicability to us and therefore its implementation did not impact our financial position or results of operations.

 

Pronouncements Not Yet Implemented

 

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.”  SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.  Generally, this pronouncement requires companies to recognize the fair value of liabilities for retiring their facilities and equipment at the point that legal obligations associated with their retirement are incurred, with an offsetting increase to the carrying value of the facility.  The expense associated with the retirement becomes a component of a facility’s depreciation, which is recognized over its useful life. Although SFAS No. 143 becomes effective for us on January 1, 2003, we do not believe the adoption will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations due to limited abandonment and retirement obligations associated with our facilities.

 

In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections.”  The most significant impact of SFAS No. 145 is to eliminate the requirement that gains and losses from the extinguishment of debt be classified as an extraordinary item unless these items are infrequent and unusual in nature.  SFAS No. 145 is effective for us on January 1, 2003.  Upon adoption of SFAS No. 145, we will reclassify the previously reported extraordinary items, which relate to early extinguishment of debt, as a component of earnings before income taxes.

 

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.”  SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized initially at fair value when the liability is incurred.  Under current accounting rules, costs to exit or dispose of an activity are generally recognized at the date that the exit or disposal plan has been committed to and communicated.  SFAS No. 146 is effective for us on January 1, 2003 and will be applied on a prospective basis.

 

During January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.”  FIN No. 46 provides guidance for companies having ownership of variable interest entities, typically referred to as special purpose entities, in determining whether to consolidate such variable interest entities.  FIN No. 46 has immediate applicability for variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 or interests in variable interest entities obtained after that date.  For interests in variable interest entities obtained prior to February 1, 2003, FIN No. 46 becomes effective on July 1, 2003.  Because we do not hold an interest in an entity governed by the pronouncement, we do not believe the adoption will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 2.                              RESTATEMENT

 

On February 3, 2004, we announced our intention to restate our unaudited financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the full years (and related unaudited quarterly data) 2002, 2001 and 2000 as a result of identifying certain adjustments required to properly state these periods. The accompanying restated consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments made to previously reported financial statements for each of the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. The restatement, primarily affecting our pump and valve segments, principally relates to correcting: inventory amounts and related cost of sales; various non-inventory account balances; the computation of the 2002 and 2001 income tax provisions; and the classification of various balance sheet accounts.  The restatement reduced reported earnings before income taxes by $8.5 million, $11.7 million and $3.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

 

Inventory And Cost Of Sales Adjustments

 

The inventory and cost of sales adjustments primarily resulted from reconciliation issues at two of our reporting locations due to difficulties associated with converting to new computer systems. The difficulties in executing the conversions and related reconciliation issues resulted in inventory amounts not being properly charged to cost of sales in the appropriate periods. These adjustments reduced reported earnings before income taxes by an aggregate $7.0 million, $10.3 million and $1.2 million for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.  Additionally, we restated for adjustments to cost of sales resulting from inventory and related account reconciliations at a limited number of other locations which reduced reported earnings before income taxes by $0.6 million, $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

 

Other Adjustments

 

The restatement reduces reported earnings before income taxes by $0.9 million, $0.9 million and $1.2 million for 2002, 2001 and 2000, for adjustments identified during the reconciliation of cash, intercompany transactions, investments in affiliates, equipment and accrued liabilities balances as well as foreign exchange transactions.

 

Tax Adjustments

 

The restatement includes the tax effects of the aforementioned adjustments plus adjustments to reduce net income by $1.2 million and $1.4 million to correct for certain elements of the computation of the tax provision for 2002 and 2001, respectively.

 

Balance Sheet Adjustments

 

We have restated amounts within the balance sheet accounts to appropriately classify tax assets and liabilities, including the establishment of deferred taxes related to the cumulative translation adjustment account.

 

We also intend to restate our unaudited financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 to increase reported income before income taxes by $2.1 million to adjust for the aforementioned entries not being recognized in the appropriate periods, including adjustments for certain inappropriate accounting entries made without proper substantiation.

NOTE 3.                              GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

On January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.”  SFAS No. 141 requires that all prospective business combinations be accounted for using the purchase method, under which an acquiring company allocates the purchase price to the identifiable assets and liabilities, and recognizes goodwill when the purchase price exceeds the fair value of such identifiable assets and liabilities.  Additionally, SFAS No. 141 establishes specific criteria for the recognition of intangible assets separately from goodwill.  SFAS No. 142 primarily addresses the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition.  The most significant changes made by SFAS No. 142 require the cessation of systematic amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, instead requiring impairment testing on at least an annual basis.  Additionally, the amortization period of intangible assets is no longer limited to forty years.

 

Upon implementation of SFAS Nos. 141 and 142, we reclassified acquired workforce intangible assets with a net carrying value of $18.5 million to goodwill as acquired workforce intangible assets do not meet the new criteria for recognition apart from goodwill.  We also determined that $31.1 million in acquired trademark intangible assets have indefinite useful lives and no longer systematically amortize these intangible assets.

 

Under SFAS No. 142, impairment for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles is assessed at the reporting unit level annually and whenever events or circumstances indicate impairment may exist.  We consider each of our three operating segments to constitute distinct reporting units and assess impairment at the operating segment level.  During the second quarter of 2002, we completed the required transitional impairment tests for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and determined these assets were not impaired.  We conducted a similar test during the fourth quarter of 2002, which also revealed no impairment to these assets.  Amortization of goodwill, workforce intangible assets (which were reclassified to goodwill upon adoption of SFAS No. 142) and trademark intangible assets with indefinite useful lives totaled $19.7 million and $11.5 million on a pretax basis for 2001 and 2000.

 

The following table reflects consolidated results for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 adjusted as though we implemented SFAS No. 141 and No. 142 occurred on January 1, 2000:

Other reclassifications include the allocation of previously unallocated goodwill to our reporting units and other reclassifications from intangible assets in connection with the implementation of SFAS No. 142.

 

Effective July 1, 2002, we realigned our operating segments.  Previously, the Flow Solutions Division included seal manufacturing operations as well as all service and repair to flow control equipment.  Under the new alignment, pump services and valve services have been included in Flowserve Pump Division and Flow Control Division, respectively.  Accordingly, goodwill associated with the pump service and valve service businesses of $39.3 million and $6.7 million, respectively, has been reclassified for all periods presented herein to conform to the new organization structure.

 

NOTE 4.                              ACQUISITIONS

 

The operating results of Invensys plc’s flow control division, Ingersoll-Dresser Pump Company and Innovative Valve Technologies (“Invatec”) have been included in the consolidated statement of operations from the date of acquisition.  The purchase price for each acquisition has been allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on estimated fair value at the date of acquisition.

 

Invensys Flow Control

 

On May 2, 2002, we completed the acquisition of Invensys plc’s flow control division (“IFC”) for the contractual purchase price of $535 million, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the purchase and sale agreement.  In addition, we incurred $6.1 million of costs associated with consummation of the acquisition including investment banking, legal, actuarial and accounting fees.  The total purchase price including such costs through December 31, 2002 was $541 million.  IFC manufactures valves, actuators and associated flow control products, and provides us with a more balanced mix of revenue among pumps, valves and seals as well as a more diversified geographic and end market mix.  We financed the acquisition and associated transaction costs with a combination of bank financing, as more fully described in Note 11, and net proceeds of approximately $276 million received from the issuance of 9.2 million common shares in April 2002.

 

The table below reflects our unaudited pro forma results as if the IFC acquisition had taken place at the beginning of 2002 and 2001, including estimated purchase accounting adjustments and financing costs.  The non-recurring $5.2 million purchase accounting adjustment associated with the required write-up and subsequent sale of IFC inventory after acquisition has also been presented in the pro forma information for 2001 to reflect a theoretical acquisition date of January 1, 2001.

The purchase price allocation may require further refinements upon finalization of the beginning balance sheet, including deferred tax effects.  We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation during the second quarter of 2003.

 

Ingersoll-Dresser Pump Company And Innovative Valve Technologies

 

In August 2000, we completed a $775 million cash acquisition of Ingersoll-Dresser Pump Company (“IDP”), a leading manufacturer of pumps with a diverse mix of pump products and customers with operations in 30 countries.  The acquisition was financed with a combination of senior secured term loans and issuance of senior subordinated notes.  Upon closing of the transaction, we refinanced our existing debt into the new senior secured credit facility.  In addition, we incurred $10.7 million of costs associated with consummating the acquisition including investment banking, legal, actuarial and accounting fees.  As a result, the total purchase price including acquisition costs was $785.7 million.

 

In January 2000, we acquired Innovative Valve Technologies, Inc. (Invatec), a company principally engaged in providing comprehensive maintenance, repair, replacement and value-added distribution services for valves, piping systems, instrumentation and other process-system components for industrial customers.

 

57



 

We acquired all of the outstanding stock of Invatec and assumed Invatec’s existing debt and related obligations.  The $16.6 million acquisition was financed through our working capital.  Concurrent with consummation of the acquisition, Invatec’s net debt of $87.7 million was paid off through borrowings under our revolving credit agreement.

 

NOTE 5.                              FACTORED ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

 

During December 2002, we, through certain of our German and British subsidiaries, entered into agreements whereby we factored certain non-intercompany, current accounts receivable without recourse.  The agreements which run through December 2005, with options for renewal, permit a maximum factoring equivalent of $50 million.

 

Under the program, the factors, which are third party financial institutions, purchase the receivables from us by advancing 80% of the face value of the underlying receivables.  We are entitled to the remaining 20%, net of factoring fees, from the factors upon collection from the customer.  Upon collection of a factored receivable, the program generally permits us to replace that collection with another previously unfactored qualifying receivable.  We retained the responsibility for servicing and collecting the receivables.  At December 31, 2002, we had received approximately $17 million in cash from the factors, which represents their purchase of $21 million of receivables.  We have established a receivable from the factors for the $4 million to be recouped upon payment by the customer.  Also at December 31, 2002, we had sold an additional $18 million of receivables for which no amounts had been advanced by the factor.  We utilized the proceeds from the factoring program to partially fund the optional debt repayments during the fourth quarter of 2002.

 

We do not generally require collateral for the receivables we factor, however, we attempt to reduce credit risk through credit extension and collection policies and through the purchase of credit insurance.  We deem the receivables factored to be sold and recognize a loss on their sale upon receipt of cash from the factor.  The amount of the loss is generally equal to the estimated factoring fees, the credit insurance costs on the factored receivables and the cost to service the receivables.  During 2002, we recognized approximately $0.3 million of loss in factoring the receivables, which included the initial commencement fees of $0.1 million.

 

Additionally, we maintain other less significant factoring programs.

NOTE 6.                              INVENTORIES

 

Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market.  Cost is determined for U.S. inventories by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method and for other inventories by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.

Additionally, inventory balances were impacted by currency translation, which had the effect of increasing inventory by approximately $17 million at December 31, 2002 compared with the prior year end balance.  The decline in the excess and obsolete reserve from December 31, 2001 generally reflects the physical disposal of non-saleable inventory during 2002.

 

NOTE 7.                              RESTRUCTURING AND ACQUISITION RELATED CHARGES

 

Restructuring Costs – IFC

 

In conjunction with the IFC acquisition during 2002, we initiated an integration program designed to reduce costs and eliminate excess capacity by closing seven valve facilities and reducing sales and related support personnel.  Our actions, approved and committed to in 2002, are expected to result in a gross reduction of approximately 889 positions and a net reduction of approximately 662 positions based on information available as of the date of this Form 10-K/A filing.  Through December 31, 2002, 442 gross positions and 268 net positions had been eliminated pursuant to the program.  Net position eliminations represent the gross positions eliminated from the closed facilities offset by positions added at the receiving facilities, which are required to produce the products transferred into the receiving facilities.  We expect to realize at least $20 million of annual run rate savings as a result of our integration program.  Run rate savings reflect the quantification of synergies achieved at December 31, 2002 on an annualized basis.  The savings reflect the benefit of lower payroll and benefit costs resulting from the net position eliminations, partially offset by increased outsourcing costs, and elimination of fixed costs at the closed facilities including depreciation, utilities, lease expense, insurance, taxes and other fixed costs.

 

Concurrent with the acquisition, we established a restructuring reserve of $11.0 million in the second quarter of 2002, and increased the reserve by $2.8 million and $6.8 million in the third and fourth quarters of 2002 for this program.  We expect to

 

59



 

pay for the majority of the remaining reductions and closures in 2003.  Costs associated with the closure of our facilities of $4.3 million in 2002 have been recognized as a restructuring expense in the statement of operations.  We also recognized a restructuring reserve consisting of $16.3 million of costs and related deferred taxes of $5.1 million.  Such costs related to the closure of IFC facilities became part of the purchase price allocation of the transaction.  The effect of these closure costs increased the amount of goodwill otherwise recognizable as a result of the IFC acquisition.

The acquisition-related activities resulted in integration costs as categorized above and further defined as follows.  Personnel and related costs include payroll, benefits, consulting fees, and retention and integration performance bonuses paid to our employees and contractors for the development, management and execution of the integration plan.  Transfer of product lines includes costs associated with the transfer of product lines as well as realignment required in the receiving facilities.  Asset impairments reflect the loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment at the facilities closed and disposal of inventory for discontinued product lines when the facilities were combined.  The other category includes costs associated with information technology integration, legal entity consolidations, legal entity name changes, signage, new product literature and other.  None of these items individually amounted to greater than $0.5 million.

 

An additional $24.3 million of restructuring and integration costs, including capitalized amounts, were incurred in 2003 for the IFC acquisition. Payments from the restructuring accrual will continue into 2004 and 2005 due to the timing of severance obligations in Europe.  The impact of additional restructuring activities will be recorded as obligations are incurred under these programs.  Total restructuring and integration costs are expected to be approximately three times the annual run rate of integration savings.

 

Restructuring Costs - IDP

 

In August 2000, in conjunction with the IDP acquisition, we initiated an integration program designed to reduce costs and eliminate excess capacity by closing or significantly downsizing eight pump manufacturing facilities and eight service and repair facilities; closing IDP’s former headquarters; and reducing redundant sales, administrative and related support personnel.  These actions, approved and committed to in 2000, resulted in the gross reduction of 1,500 positions and a net reduction of 1,100 positions.  Net positions reflect the gross positions eliminated from the closed facilities offset by positions

 

60



 

added at the receiving facilities required to produce the products transferred into the receiving facilities.  As a result of these activities, we generated approximately $90 million of annual synergy savings.  The savings reflect the benefit of lower payroll and benefit costs resulting from the net position eliminations, partially offset by increased outsourcing costs, and elimination of fixed costs at the closed facilities including depreciation, utilities, lease expense, insurance, taxes and other fixed costs.

 

We recognized a total of $65 million in restructuring costs, comprised of $42 million related to the IDP operations acquired and $23 million related to Flowserve operations.  The $42 million related to IDP operations, reduced by deferred tax effects of $16 million, resulted in recognition of $26 million of incremental goodwill.  The $23 million related to Flowserve operations was recognized as restructuring expense in the consolidated statement of operations in 2000 and 2001.

During 2001 and 2000, we also incurred integration expense of $63.0 million and $35.2 million, respectively, associated with the acquisition of IDP.  The non-cash reductions to the reserve generally relate to reclassifications to retirement benefit obligations and other liabilities, offset by increases to the reserve for changes in estimated restructuring costs.  We completed our integration and restructuring activities in 2001, and the majority of the expenditures were completed as of December 31, 2002.

 

The majority of the funding of the restructuring activities was completed in 2002.  Revisions to the accrual were recorded in 2000 and 2001 to reflect actual results and changes in estimates including an incremental accrual in 2000, which was required based upon updated actuarial information for postretirement and pension expense relating to finalization of union negotiations for closed facilities.  Of the final adjustment of $2.9 million in 2001, $1.2 million related to Flowserve facilities and was reflected as negative restructuring expense and the remaining $1.7 million related to IDP facilities and was recorded as a reduction to goodwill.  Non-cash reductions reflect reclassification from the restructuring accrual to post-retirement benefits and pension liabilities in 2000 and to other accrued liabilities in 2001 and 2002.

 

Severance costs include costs associated with involuntary termination benefits, including enhancements to certain severed employees of long-term retirement benefits of $16.4 million, and the costs related to exiting of facilities that would provide no future benefit.  Other exit costs of $12.6 million included $5.1 million of payroll and consulting costs to execute the closure program, $2.5 million of facility clean-up costs including environmental, $2.1 million relocation costs for IDP personnel, $1.7 million of costs to physically dispose of patterns and equipment and $1.2 million of other costs including lease termination and legal costs.

Disclosure of pro forma information regarding net earnings and earnings per share as if we had accounted for stock options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994, under a fair value method is required.  The “fair value” for these options at the grant date was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

 

The assumptions used in this valuation are as follows:

The options granted had a weighted average fair value per share on date of grant of $11.70 in 2002, $12.40 in 2001, and $8.63 in 2000.  For purposes of pro forma disclosure, the estimated fair value of the options is amortized to expense over the options’ vesting periods.

Because the determination of the fair value of all options granted includes an expected volatility factor and additional option grants are expected to be made each year, the above pro forma disclosures are not representative of pro forma effects for future years.

 

Restricted Stock Plans

 

We also have restricted stock plans that authorize us to grant up to 5,742 additional shares of common stock to employees and non-employee directors.  In general, the restrictions on the shares do not lift for a minimum of one year to a maximum of ten years and are subject to forfeiture during the restriction period.  The intrinsic value of the shares, which is typically the product of share price at the date of grant and the number of shares granted, is amortized on a straight-line basis to compensation expense over the periods in which the restrictions lapse.  Any cumulative recognized expense related to restricted stock forfeited is reversed from income during the period of forfeiture.

NOTE 9.                              DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

 

We enter into forward contracts to hedge our risk associated with transactions denominated in foreign currencies.  Our risk management and derivatives policy specify the conditions in which we enter into derivative contracts.  As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, we had approximately $48.6 million and $69.4 million, respectively, of notional amount in outstanding contracts with third parties.  As of December 31, 2002, the maximum length of any forward contract currently in place was less than one year.  The fair value of outstanding forward contracts at December 31, 2002 and 2001 was $3.3 million and $(0.3) million, respectively.

 

Also as part of our risk management program, we enter into interest rate swap agreements to hedge our exposure to floating interest rates on certain portions of our debt.  As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, we had $125.0 million and $150.0 million, respectively, of notional amount in outstanding interest rate swaps with third parties.  As of December 31, 2002, the maximum length of any interest rate contract currently in place was approximately four years.  At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements was a liability of $9.8 million and $6.3 million, respectively.

 

We are exposed to risk from credit-related losses resulting from nonperformance by counterparties to our financial instruments.  We perform credit evaluations of our counterparties under forward contracts and interest rate swap agreements and expect all counterparties to meet their obligations and have not experienced credit losses from our counterparties.

 

We adopted SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended, on January 1, 2001.  In accordance with the transition provisions of SFAS 133, we recorded a net $0.8 million cumulative-effect adjustment in other comprehensive income representing the fair value of hedging instruments as of January 1, 2001 after deferred tax of $0.5 million.  The net asset amount of $1.3 million consists of a $3.4 million asset related to foreign currency forward contracts, offset by a liability of $2.1 million related to interest rate swap agreements.

Senior Credit Facilities

 

During the second quarter of 2002, in connection with the IFC acquisition, we amended and restated our senior credit facilities, to provide for:

 

•     an incremental Tranche A Term Loan in an aggregate principal amount of $95.3 million; and

•     a new Tranche C Term Loan facility of $700 million, to be used to repay all of the existing Tranche B Term Loan facility of $468.8 million, repay $11.3 million of the existing Tranche A Term Loan, reduce the then outstanding balance on the revolving credit facility by $40 million and provide funds to be used to finance the IFC acquisition.

 

As part of the amended and restated senior credit facility, several covenants were modified, including various financial ratios, interest rates were adjusted and other terms of the facility were changed primarily to allow for the IFC acquisition.  The senior credit facilities are collateralized by substantially all of our U.S. assets and a pledge of 65% of the stock of our non-U.S. subsidiaries.

 

The term loans require scheduled principal payments, which began on June 30, 2001 for the Tranche A Term Loan and on December 31, 2002 for the Tranche C Term Loan.  The Tranche A and Tranche C Term Loans have ultimate maturities of June 2006 and June 2009, respectively.  The term loans bear floating interest rates based on LIBOR plus a borrowing spread, or the prime rate plus a borrowing spread, at our option.  The borrowing spread for the senior credit facilities can increase or decrease based on the leverage ratio as defined in the credit facility agreement and on our public debt ratings.  In 2002, we made $33.8 million of mandatory and $170 million of optional principal repayments on the term loans.  Additionally, during 2002 we repaid the $70 million outstanding at December 31, 2001 under the revolving credit agreement.

 

As a result of the $170 million of optional debt prepayments during 2002, we wrote off a portion of previously paid deferred financing fees and recognized an extraordinary loss of $1.1 million, after tax consideration, summarized as follows:

(1)          Does not include the $6.3 million extraordinary loss associated with repayment of Tranche B Term Loan during the second quarter of 2002, which resulted in total extraordinary losses of $7.4 million.

 

Under the senior credit facilities, we also have a $300 million revolving credit facility that expires in June 2006.  The revolving credit facility also allows us to issue up to $200 million in letters of credit.  As of December 31, 2002, there were no amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility, whereas $70 million was outstanding at December 31, 2001.  We had issued $51.8 million and $27.4 million of letters of credit under the facility, which reduced borrowing capacity of the facility to $248.2 million and $202.6 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

 

We are required, under certain circumstances as defined in the credit facility, to use a percentage of excess cash generated from operations to reduce the outstanding principal of the term loans in the following year.  No additional principal payments were due in 2003 under this provision.

 

Senior Subordinated Notes

 

At December 31, 2002, we had $188.5 million and EUR 65 million (equivalent to $68.25 million) face value of Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding.  We issued these notes during 2000 in part through a Dutch subsidiary, Flowserve Finance B.V.  At the date of issuance, the Senior Subordinated Notes, due in August 2010, resulted in proceeds of $285.9 million (U.S. dollar denominated notes) or $290.0 million face amount less discount of $4.1 million and EUR 98.6 million (Euro denominated notes) or EUR 100 million face amount less discount of EUR 1.4 million, which then equated to $89.2 million.  The U.S. dollar denominated notes and the Euro denominated notes are Flowserve Finance B.V.’s and our general unsecured obligations, subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future senior indebtedness, and guaranteed on a full, unconditional, joint and several basis by our wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries.

 

The Senior Subordinated notes were originally issued at a discount to yield 12.5%, but bear interest at 12.25%.  Approximately one-third of these Senior Subordinated Notes were repurchased at a premium in 2001 utilizing proceeds of an

 

69



 

 

equity offering, under which approximately 6.9 million shares of our common stock were issued for net proceeds of approximately $154 million.  Proceeds under the offering were used to:

 

                  prepay $101.5 million of the U.S. dollar denominated Senior Subordinated Notes;

                  prepay EUR 35 million (equivalent to $31 million) of the Euro denominated Senior Subordinated Notes; and

                  pay associated prepayment premiums and other direct costs.

 

During 2001, as a result of the repurchase, we recorded an extraordinary item of $17.9 million, net of $7.1 million of tax, which represented the sum of the prepayment premiums, other direct costs, and the write-off of unamortized prepaid financing fees and discount for the portion of these notes that was prepaid.

 

Beginning in August 2005, all remaining Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding become callable by us at 106.125% of face value.  Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in February and August.

 

Debt Covenants and Other Matters

 

The provisions of our senior credit facilities require us to meet or exceed specified defined financial covenants, including a leverage ratio, an interest coverage ratio, and a fixed charge coverage ratio.  Further, the provisions of these and other debt agreements generally limit or restrict indebtedness, liens, sale and leaseback transactions, asset sales, and payment of dividends, capital expenditures, and other activities.  Due to the restatement, we determined that at September 30, 2001, December 31, 2001 and March 31, 2002, we did not comply by 25 basis points or less with financial covenants in our then applicable credit agreement, which is no longer in effect.  We believe that we would have undertaken readily available actions to maintain compliance or obtained a waiver or amendment to the then existing credit agreement had this situation been then known.  Except for this period, we have complied with all covenants under our debt facilities.  We believe that this matter has no impact on our existing debt agreements and that our outstanding debt is properly classified in our consolidated balance sheet.

 

In 2000, we recorded an extraordinary item of $2.1 million, which is net of tax of $1.2 million, for prepayment premiums and the write-off of prepaid financing fees associated with the prepayment of certain long-term debt.

 

Operating Leases

 

We have noncancelable operating leases for certain offices, service and quick response centers, certain manufacturing and operating facilities and machinery, equipment and automobiles.  Rental expense relating to operating leases was $22,964 in 2002, $14,041 in 2001 and $13,020 in 2000.

 

The future minimum lease payments due under noncancelable operating leases are:

NOTE 12.  RETIREMENT AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

 

We sponsor several noncontributory defined benefit pension plans, covering substantially all domestic employees and certain foreign employees, which provide benefits based on years of service and compensation.  Retirement benefits for all other employees are provided through defined contribution pension plans, cash balance pension plans and government-sponsored retirement programs.  All defined benefit pension plans are funded based on independent actuarial valuations to provide for current service and an amount sufficient to amortize unfunded prior service over periods not to exceed thirty years.

During 2002, we increased our additional minimum liability by $32.3 million, net of tax, as a component of other comprehensive expense.  This additional liability resulted from the market performance of the assets during 2002 and the increase in the number of employees participating in the plans resulting from the IFC, IDP and Invatec acquisitions.  We increased our additional minimum liability by $16.2 million in 2001 for similar acquisition-related and asset performance reasons.

 

Based on the results of pension plan and asset returns during 2002 and on the likely return over the intermediate future, we reduced our assumption for the rate of return of such assets from 9.5% to 9.0% for 2002.  Similarly, we reduced the discount rate from 7.0% to 6.75% to reflect current and intermediate outlook for prevailing rates.  We continue to evaluate our assumptions for asset returns and discount rates based on prevailing economic factors, and plan to reduce the rate of return on plan assets in 2003 to a range between 8.5% to 8.75%. Additionally, we anticipate contributing a minimum of $16.8 million up to $47.7 million to our domestic pension plan during 2003.

The increase in the benefit obligations during 2002 predominantly reflects the obligations assumed under the IFC acquisition.  During 2002 we increased our additional minimum liability by $10.6 million, net of tax, as a component of other comprehensive expense.  This additional liability resulted from the market performance of the assets during 2002 and the increase in the number of employees participating in the plans resulting from the IFC acquisition.

Defined Contribution Plans

 

We sponsor several defined contribution plans covering substantially all domestic and Canadian employees and certain other foreign employees.  Employees may contribute to these plans, and we match these contributions in varying amounts.  We may also make additional contributions for eligible employees.  Our defined contribution plan expense was $6,633 in 2002, $9,421 in 2001 and $7,324 in 2000.

 

Postretirement Medical Plans

 

We also sponsor several defined benefit postretirement health care plans covering most current and a limited number of future retirees in the U.S.  These plans are for medical and dental benefits and are administered through insurance companies and health maintenance organizations.  The plans include participant contributions, deductibles, co-insurance provisions and other limitations, and are integrated with Medicare and other group plans.  We fund these plans as insured benefits and health maintenance organization premiums are incurred.  The benefits are no longer available to new employees and most existing employees.

During 2002, we renegotiated certain union contracts which limited our obligation for postretirement medical costs.  The effect of this change will generally reduce expenses in future periods.

 

Effective with the purchase of IDP on August 8, 2000, we assumed postretirement liabilities for all former eligible IDP active employees as of the date of the purchase.  In connection with the restructuring plans announced in 2000, we recognized a curtailment liability of $11.5 million to reflect termination related postretirement obligations.  Of this amount, $5.9 million was included in restructuring expense as it related to our former employees and $5.6 million was included in goodwill as it related to former IDP employees.

The assumed ranges for the annual rates of increase in per capita costs for periods prior to Medicare were 10.0% for 2002 and 2001 and a gradual decrease to 5.0% for 2007 and future years.

 

Increasing the assumed rate of increase in postretirement medical benefit costs by 1% in each year would increase net postretirement benefit expense by approximately $450 and accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by $6,443.  Reducing the assumed rate of postretirement medical benefit costs by 1% in each year would reduce net postretirement benefit expense by approximately $416 and accumulated benefit obligations by $5,967.

 

We made contributions to the defined benefit postretirement medical plans of $7,960 in 2002, $8,428 in 2001 and $4,268 in 2000.

 

NOTE 13.  CONTINGENCIES

 

As of December 31, 2002, we were involved as a “potentially responsible party” (PRP) at two former public waste disposal sites that may be subject to remediation under pending government procedures. The sites are in various stages of evaluation by federal and state environmental authorities. The projected cost of remediating these sites, as well as our alleged “fair share” allocation, is uncertain and speculative until all studies have been completed and the parties have either negotiated an amicable resolution or the matter has been judicially resolved. At each site, there are many other parties who have similarly

 

75



 

been identified, and the identification and location of additional parties is continuing under applicable federal or state law. Many of the other parties identified are financially strong and solvent companies that appear able to pay their share of the remediation costs. Based on our preliminary information about the waste disposal practices at these sites and the environmental regulatory process in general, we believe that it is likely that ultimate remediation liability costs for each site will be apportioned among all liable parties, including site owners and waste transporters, according to the volumes and/or toxicity of the wastes shown to have been disposed of at the sites.

 

We are a defendant in numerous pending lawsuits (which include, in many cases, multiple claimants) that seek to recover damages for alleged personal injury allegedly resulting from exposure to asbestos-containing products formerly manufactured and/or distributed by us. All such products were used within self-contained process equipment, and we do not believe that there was any emission of ambient asbestos-containing fiber during the use of this equipment.

 

We are also a defendant in several other product liability lawsuits that are insured, subject to the applicable deductibles, and certain other noninsured lawsuits received in the ordinary course of business. We believe that we have adequately accrued estimated losses for such lawsuits. No insurance recovery has been projected for any of the insured claims, because we currently believe that all will be resolved within applicable deductibles. We are also a party to other noninsured litigation that is incidental to its business, and, in our opinion, will be resolved without a material adverse impact on our financial statements.

 

Although none of the aforementioned potential liabilities can be quantified with absolute certainty, we have established reserves covering these possible exposures, which management believes are reasonable based on past experience and available facts. While additional exposures beyond these reserves could exist, none gives rise to any additional liability that can now be reasonably estimated, and we believe any such costs will not have a material adverse impact on our results of operations or financial position. We will continue to evaluate these potentially additional contingent loss exposures and, if they develop, recognize expense as soon as such losses can be reasonably estimated.

NOTE 15.  SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Each share of our common stock contains a preferred stock purchase right.  These rights are not currently exercisable and trade in tandem with the common stock.  The rights become exercisable and trade separately in the event of certain significant changes in common stock ownership or on the commencement of certain tender offers that, in either case, may lead to a change of our control.  Upon becoming exercisable, the rights provide shareholders the opportunity to acquire a new series of our preferred stock to be then automatically issued at a pre-established price.  In the event of certain forms of our being acquired, the rights also provide our shareholders the opportunity to purchase shares of the acquirer’s common stock from the acquirer at a 50% discount from the current market value.  We may redeem the rights for $0.022 per right at any time prior to their becoming exercisable or their expiration in August 2006.

We have recorded valuation allowances to reflect the estimated amount of deferred tax assets that may not be realized due to the expiration of net operating loss and foreign tax credit carryforwards.  The decrease in the valuation allowances during 2002 was primarily attributable to our ability to use foreign tax credit carryforwards and changes in estimates of foreign net operating loss carryforwards.  We had approximately $28.2 million of net operating loss carryforwards at December 31, 2002, of which approximately 73% was generated outside the U.S.  Net operating losses generated in the U.S. will begin to expire in 2017, if unused.  Additionally, we had approximately $29.5 million of foreign tax credit carryforwards at December 31, 2002, which expire in 2004 through 2007 if unused.

Undistributed earnings of our non-U.S. subsidiaries amounted to approximately $223.7 million at December 31, 2002.  These earnings are considered to be indefinitely reinvested and, accordingly, no additional U.S. income taxes or non-U.S. withholding taxes have been provided.  Determination of the amount of additional taxes that would be payable if such earnings were not considered indefinitely reinvested is not practical.

NOTE 17.  SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

We are principally engaged in the worldwide design, manufacture, distribution and service of industrial flow management equipment.  We provide pumps, valves and mechanical seals primarily for the petroleum industry, the chemical-processing industry, power-generation industry, water industry, general industry and other industries requiring flow management products.

 

We have the following three divisions, each of which constitutes a business segment:

 

                  Flowserve Pump Division;

                  Flow Solutions Division; and

                  Flow Control Division.

 

We evaluate segment performance based on operating income excluding special items. We believe that special items, while indicative of efforts to integrate IFC and IDP into our business, do not reflect ongoing business results.  Earnings before special items are not a recognized measure under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and should not be viewed as an alternative to GAAP performance measures.

 

Each division manufactures different products and is defined by the type of products and services provided.  Each division has a President, who reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer.  For decision-making purposes, the Chief Executive Officer and other members of upper management use financial information generated and reported at the division level.  Our corporate headquarters does not constitute a separate division or business segment.

 

Amounts classified as All Other include the corporate headquarters costs and other minor entities that are not considered separate segments.  Intersegment sales and transfers are recorded at cost plus a profit margin.

 

Effective July 1, 2002, we realigned our operating segments.  Under the new organization, the Flow Solutions Division includes our seal operations, while our pump and valve service businesses (previously included in the Flow Solutions Division) have been included, as appropriate, in the Flowserve Pump Division and Flow Control Division, respectively.  Effective January 1, 2003, we realigned certain small sites between segments.  Accordingly, the segment information for all periods presented herein has been reported under the new organizational structure.

NOTE 19.  GUARANTOR AND FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Pursuant to the Senior Subordinated Notes, the following consolidating financial information presents the consolidating balance sheet as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002 for:

              Flowserve Corporation, the parent;

              Flowserve Finance B.V.;

              the guarantor subsidiaries;

              the nonguarantor subsidiaries; and

              the Company on a consolidated basis.

 

The information includes elimination entries necessary to consolidate Flowserve Corporation, the parent, with Flowserve Finance, B.V., and guarantor and nonguarantor subsidiaries.

 

Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for by the parent using the equity method of accounting.  The guarantor and nonguarantor subsidiaries are presented on a combined basis.  The principal elimination entries eliminate investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions.  Separate financial statements for the guarantor subsidiaries and the nonguarantor subsidiaries are omitted because of immateriality.

 

The following summarizes the effects of restatement adjustments to the previously reported consolidating net earnings (loss):

NOTE 21.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

Updated Legal Matters

 

In June 2002, we were sued by Ruhrpumpen, Inc. who alleged antitrust violations, conspiracy, fraud and breach of contract claims arising out of our December 2000 sale to Ruhrpumpen of a plant in Tulsa, Oklahoma and a license for eight defined pump lines.  The sale agreement had a purchase price of approximately $5.4 million plus other material terms, including Ruhrpumpen’s assumption of certain liabilities.  Ruhrpumpen subsequently amended its complaint to add Mr. Ronald F. Shuff, our Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel, and two other employees as individual defendants. The sale to Ruhrpumpen was the result of a divestiture agreement we reached with the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) in July 2000 in connection with our acquisition of IDP.  Our agreement with the DOJ gives it the authority to make inquiries about and otherwise monitor our divestiture.  On or about May 13, 2003, we received a letter from the DOJ making inquiry into some of the issues raised by Ruhrpumpen in its lawsuit and seeking information about the divestiture and Ruhrpumpen’s lawsuit.  The DOJ continues to monitor the lawsuit and the divestiture.  During March 2004, the case was tried in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas.  At trial, Ruhrpumpen sought the recovery of over $100 million in actual and exemplary damages. We vigorously contested Ruhrpumpen’s allegations and purported damages.  At the close of the trial, Ruhrpumpen voluntarily dismissed its claims against Mr. Shuff and the other two employees.  We are currently awaiting a ruling from the court as to the remaining claims against the Company.

 

During the quarter ended September 30, 2003, related lawsuits were filed in federal court, in the Northern District of Texas, alleging that we violated federal securities laws during a period beginning on October 23, 2001 and ending September 27, 2002.  The cases were consolidated and a lead plaintiff was appointed by the court. A consolidated amended complaint was filed on February 5, 2004.  The consolidated amended complaint, like the earlier individual complaints, also names as individual defendants Mr. C. Scott Greer, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and Ms. Renée J. Hornbaker, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and seeks unspecified compensatory damages and recovery of costs.  On March 11, 2004, the court granted the lead plaintiff leave to file a further amended complaint within 15 days of our filing of the finalized restatement of our financial results.  We strongly believe that the lawsuit is without merit and plan to vigorously defend the case.

 

On February 4, 2004, we received an informal inquiry from the SEC requesting the voluntary production of documents and information related to our February 3, 2004 announcement that we would restate our financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and the full years 2002, 2001 and 2000.  In a separate informal inquiry, the SEC requested, and we voluntarily supplied, documents and other information relating to whether our Form 8-K, filed November 21, 2002, adequately fulfilled obligations that may have arisen under Regulation FD.  We intend to continue to cooperate with the SEC in these inquiries.

 

Although none of the aforementioned potential liabilities can be quantified with absolute certainty, we have established reserves covering these possible exposures, which we believe are reasonable based on past experience and available facts.  While additional exposures beyond these reserves could exist, none gives rise to any additional liability that can now be reasonably estimated, and we believe any such costs will not have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations.  We will continue to evaluate these potential contingent loss exposures and, if necessary, recognize expense as soon as such losses become probable and can be reasonably estimated.

PART III

 

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO) evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation 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 of the end of the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K/A, December 31, 2002.  During this evaluation, our CEO and CFO became aware of several weaknesses related to the internal controls over financial reporting.

In April 2003, our independent auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP (“PwC”), advised the Audit/Finance Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit/Finance Committee”) of various matters related to inventories at one of our facilities that may be considered reportable conditions under standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.  The Audit/Finance Committee asked management to direct significant resources to address these inventory-related matters and reconcile inventory amounts at this facility during the balance of 2003.

In February 2004, management advised the Audit/Finance Committee of weaknesses in internal controls over the implementation of computer systems, recording inventory amounts and related costs, account reconciliation procedures, manual journal entry procedures and monitoring of compliance with procedures.  Also in February 2004, PwC advised the Audit/Finance Committee that these internal control issues collectively constituted material weaknesses as defined in Statement of Auditing Standards No. 60.  In addition, these internal control issues may also constitute weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures.

As a result of matters giving rise to the restatement of the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and full years 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Audit/Finance Committee commissioned an independent investigation of matters related to the restatement in early March 2004.  The final investigation results revealed inappropriate accounting entries pertaining to inventory amounts and related cost of sales entries in 2003, which were made without proper substantiation and were not recognized in the appropriate periods.

Since discovering the internal control weaknesses identified above and evaluating the investigation results, we accelerated the implementation of measures to strengthen our internal controls, including, among others, the following:

 

 

enhancing computer systems implementation and testing procedures;

 

enhancing computer systems training;

 

changing certain key and lower level financial, accounting and other staff positions and expanding financial training programs;

 

reinforcing existing account reconciliation procedures and journal entry procedures, including enhanced monitoring of reconciliations;

 

reinforcing existing physical inventory and cycle counting procedures and enhanced monitoring of compliance with those procedures, as well as instituting more frequent physical inventory counts; and

 

increasing internal audit testing.

 

 

In order to improve communications and consistency of practice among our finance personnel, we have also transitioned to an organizational structure in which all financial personnel report to the finance department.  In addition, we intend to appoint a manager in the corporate financial group to focus on monitoring and assessing compliance with internal controls and financial policies and procedures as well as enhancing financial training programs.

 

In connection with the restatement, we have performed substantial additional procedures to confirm that the restated financial information fairly presents our operating results and financial condition for the periods presented.  As a result of the additional procedures and progress made in implementing the foregoing improvements, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of April 26, 2004.

Forward-Looking Information is Subject to Risk and Uncertainty

 

This Annual Report on Form10-K/A and other reports and oral statements made from time-to-time by the Company contain various forward-looking statements and include assumptions about the Company’s future market conditions, operations and results.  These statements are based on current expectations and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties.  They are made pursuant to safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Among the many factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements are:

 

                  material adverse events in the national financial markets;

 

                  changes in the already competitive environment for the Company’s products or competitors’ responses to the Company’s strategies;

 

                  the Company’s ability to integrate past and future acquisitions into its management operations;

 

                  political risks, military actions or trade embargoes affecting customer markets, including continuing conflict in Iraq with its potential impact on Middle Eastern markets and global oil producers;

 

                  the health of the Company’s various customer industries, including the petroleum, chemical, power and water industries;

 

                  economic turmoil in areas outside the United States;

 

                  global economic growth;

 

                  unanticipated difficulties or costs associated with new systems, including software;

 

                  the Company’s relative geographical profitability and its impact on the Company’s utilization of foreign tax credits;

 

                  the recognition of significant expenses associated with adjustments to realign the Company’s facilities and other capabilities with its strategies and business conditions, including, without limitation, expenses incurred in restructuring the Company’s operations and the cost of financing, including increases in interest costs; and

 

                  litigation developments.

 

The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained herein as a result of new information, future events or otherwise occurring after the date on which such forward-looking statements are made.  New factors emerge from time-to-time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all such factors.
