(“Altra Industrial”), is a leading multi-national designer, producer and marketer of a wide range of mechanical power transmission products. The Company brings together strong brands covering over 40 product lines with production facilities in eight countries and sales coverage in over 70 countries.

2. Basis of Presentation
The Company was formed on November 30, 2004 following acquisitions of certain subsidiaries of Colfax Corporation (“Colfax”) and The Kilian Company (“Kilian”). During 2006, the Company acquired Hay Hall Holdings Limited (“Hay Hall”) and Bear Linear (“Warner Linear”). On April 5, 2007, the Company acquired TB Wood’s Corporation (“TB Wood’s”), and on October 5, 2007, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of All Power Transmission Manufacturing, Inc. (“All Power”).
The Company’s unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of April 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, and results of operations and cash flows for the quarters ended April 3, 2010 and March 28, 2009.
The Company follows a four, four, five week calendar per quarter with all quarters consisting of thirteen weeks of operations with the fiscal year end always on December 31.
3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values of financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities, approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities. The carrying amount of the 8 1/8% Senior Secured Notes was $210 million at each of April 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The estimated fair value of the 8 1/8% Senior Secured Notes at April 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009 was $213.2 million and $215.5 million, respectively, based on quoted market prices for such notes.
4. Net Income per Share
Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, and diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. Common stock equivalents are included in the per share calculations when the effect of their inclusion would be dilutive.

7. Warranty Costs
The contractual warranty period generally ranges from three months to thirty-six months based on product and application of the product. Changes in the carrying amount of accrued product warranty costs for each of the quarters ended April 3, 2010 and March 28, 2009 are as follows:
                 
    April 3,     March 28,  
    2010     2009  
 
Balance at beginning of period

Payments
    (756 )     (395 )
 
           
Balance at end of period
  $ 3,678     $ 4,100  
 
           
8. Income Taxes
The estimated effective income tax rates recorded for the quarters ended April 3, 2010 and March 28, 2009 were based upon management’s best estimate of the effective tax rate for the entire year. The change in the effective tax rate from 38.4% for the quarter ended March 28, 2009 to 31.4% for the quarter ended April 3, 2010, principally relates to a change in the earnings mix among tax jurisdictions. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company negotiated an agreement with a foreign taxing authority allowing the Company to fully deduct certain interest charges. These interest charges were classified as non-deductible in the first quarter 2009 tax rate and fully deductible in the first quarter 2010 tax rate. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2010, the Company reversed an unrecognized tax benefit due to the expiration of the statue of limitations. The 2010 tax rate differs from the statutory rate due to the impact of non-U.S. tax rates and permanent differences.
At April 3, 2010, the Company had $9.4 million of unrecognized tax benefits. We do not expect the amount of unrecognized tax benefits disclosed above to change significantly over the next 12 months.
The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return in the United States as well as consolidated and separate income tax returns in various state and foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities in all of these jurisdictions. With the exception of certain foreign jurisdictions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations for the tax years prior to 2005. Additionally, the Company has indemnification agreements with the sellers of the Colfax, Kilian and Hay Hall entities, which provide for reimbursement to the Company for payments made in satisfaction of tax liabilities relating to pre-acquisition periods.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense in the condensed consolidated statements of income. At December 31, 2009 and April 3, 2010, the Company had $3.5 million and $3.6 million of accrued interest and penalties, respectively. The Company accrued $0.1 million of interest and no penalties during the first quarter of 2010.
9. Pension and Other Employee Benefits
Defined Benefit (Pension) and Post-retirement Benefit Plans
The Company sponsors various defined benefit (pension) and post-retirement (medical, dental and life insurance coverage) plans for certain, primarily unionized, active employees. In March 2009, the Company reached a new collective bargaining agreement with the union at its Erie, Pennsylvania facility. One of the provisions of the new agreement eliminated benefits that employees were entitled to receive through the applicable other post employment benefit plan (“OPEB”). This resulted in an OPEB settlement gain of $1.5 million in the quarter ended March 28, 2009.

In November 2009, the Company issued $210 million of 81/8% Senior Secured Notes (the “Senior Secured Notes”). The Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed by the Company’s U.S. domestic subsidiaries and are secured by a second priority lien, subject to first priority liens securing the new senior secured credit facility (“Revolving Credit Agreement”), on substantially all of the Company’s assets and those of its domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the Senior Secured Notes is payable semiannually in arrears, on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on June 1, 2010 at an annual rate of 81/8%. The indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes contains covenants which restrict our subsidiaries. These restrictions limit or prohibit, among other things, their ability to incur additional indebtedness; repay subordinated indebtedness prior to stated maturities; pay dividends on or redeem or repurchase stock or make other distributions; make investments or acquisitions; sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies; sell stock in our subsidiaries; and create liens on their assets.

Tender Offer
The Company used the proceeds of the offering of the Senior Secured Notes to repurchase or redeem the 9% Senior Secured Notes (the “Old Senior Secured Notes”). On November 10, 2009, Altra Industrial commenced a cash tender offer to repurchase any and all of its outstanding Old Senior Secured Notes as of the date thereof at a price equal to $1,000.00 per $1,000 principal amount of notes tendered, plus an early tender premium of $25.00 per $1,000 principal amount of notes tendered, payable on notes tendered before the early tender deadline. Holders who tendered their Old Senior Secured Notes also agreed to waive any rights to written notice of redemption. With respect to any Old Senior Secured Notes that were not tendered, Altra Holdings redeemed all Old Senior Secured Notes that remained outstanding after the expiration of the tender offer by issuing a notice of redemption on the early tender deadline. On the early tender deadline, Altra Holdings satisfied and discharged all of its obligations under the indenture governing the Old Senior Secured Notes by depositing funds with the depositary in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge any remaining indebtedness on the Old Senior Secured Notes upon the consummation of the tender offer.
Refinancing Transaction
Concurrently with the closing of the offering of the Senior Secured Notes the Company entered into the Revolving Credit Agreement, which provides for borrowing capacity in an initial amount of up to $50.0 million (subject to adjustment pursuant to a borrowing base and subject to increase from time to time in accordance with the terms of the credit facility). The Revolving Credit Agreement replaced Altra Industrial’s then existing senior secured credit facility (the “Old Revolving Credit Agreement”), and the TB Wood’s existing credit facility (the “Old TB Wood’s Revolving Credit Agreement”).
Altra Industrial and all of its domestic subsidiaries are borrowers, or “Borrowers”, under the Revolving Credit Agreement. Certain of our existing and subsequently acquired or organized domestic subsidiaries that are not Borrowers do and will guarantee (on a senior secured basis) the Revolving Credit Agreement. Obligations of the other Borrowers under the Revolving Credit Agreement and the guarantees are secured by substantially all of Borrowers’ assets and the assets of each of our existing and subsequently acquired or organized domestic subsidiaries that is a guarantor of our obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement (with such subsidiaries being referred to as the “U.S. subsidiary guarantors”), including but not limited to: (a) a first-priority pledge of all the capital stock of subsidiaries held by Borrowers or any U.S. subsidiary guarantor (which pledge, in the case of any foreign subsidiary, will be limited to 100% of any non-voting stock and 65% of the voting stock of such foreign subsidiary) and (b) perfected first-priority security interests in and mortgages on substantially all tangible and intangible assets of each Borrower and U.S. subsidiary guarantor, including accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, general intangibles, investment property, intellectual property, certain real property, and cash and proceeds of the foregoing (in each case subject to materiality thresholds and other exceptions).
An event of default under the Revolving Credit Agreement would occur in connection with a change of control, among other things, if: (i) Altra Industrial ceases to own or control 100% of each of its Borrower subsidiaries, or (ii) a change of control occurs under the Senior Secured Notes, or any other subordinated indebtedness.
An event of default under the Revolving Credit Agreement would also occur if an event of default occurs under the indentures governing the Senior Secured Notes or if there is a default under any other indebtedness that any Borrower may have involving an aggregate amount of $10 million or more and such default: (i) occurs at final maturity of such debt, (ii) allows the lender there under to accelerate such debt or (iii) causes such debt to be required to be repaid prior to its stated maturity. An event of default would also occur under the Revolving Credit Agreement if any of the indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Agreement with limited exception to be secured by a full lien on the assets of Borrowers and guarantors.
Old Revolving Credit Agreement
Prior to entering into the Revolving Credit Agreement, the Company maintained the Old Revolving Credit Agreement, a $30 million revolving borrowings facility with a commercial bank (the “Old Revolving Credit Agreement”) through its wholly owned subsidiary Altra Industrial. The Old Revolving Credit Agreement was subject to certain limitations resulting from the requirement of Altra Industrial to maintain certain levels of collateralized assets, as defined in the Old Revolving Credit Agreement. In connection with the refinancing transaction described above, the Old Revolving Credit Agreement was terminated.
Old TB Wood’s Revolving Credit Agreement
As part of the TB Wood’s acquisition in 2007, the Company refinanced $13.0 million of debt associated with TB Wood’s line of credit. As of December 31, 2008, there was $6.0 million of debt outstanding under the Old TB Wood’s Revolving Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2008 there was $6.0 million of outstanding letters of credit. In connection with the refinancing transaction described above, the Old TB Wood’s Revolving Credit Agreement was paid in full and terminated.

Overdraft Agreements
Certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries maintain overdraft agreements with financial institutions. There were no borrowings as of April 3, 2010 or December 31, 2009 under any of the overdraft agreements.
Old Senior Secured Notes
On November 30, 2004, Altra Industrial issued the Old Senior Secured Notes, with a face value of $165.0 million. Interest on the Old Senior Secured Notes is payable semiannually, in arrears, on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning June 1, 2005, at an annual rate of 9%.
In connection with the acquisition of TB Wood’s on April 5, 2007, Altra Industrial completed a follow-on offering issuing an additional $105.0 million of the Old Senior Secured Notes. The additional $105.0 million had the same terms and conditions as the previously issued Old Senior Secured Notes. The effective interest rate on the Old Senior Secured Notes, after the follow-on offering was approximately 9.6% after consideration of the amortization of $5.6 million net discount and $6.5 million of deferred financing costs.
During 2009, Altra Industrial retired all of the outstanding Old Senior Secured Notes. In connection with the pay-down, Altra Industrial incurred $5.1 million of pre-payment premiums and wrote-off $3.2 million of deferred financing costs, and $1.9 million of discount/premium which was recorded as a component of interest expense.
The Old Senior Secured Notes were guaranteed by Altra Industrial’s U.S. domestic subsidiaries and were secured by a second priority lien, subject to first priority liens securing the Old Revolving Credit Agreement, on substantially all of Altra Industrial’s assets. The Old Senior Secured Notes contained numerous terms, covenants and conditions, which imposed substantial limitations on Altra Industrial.
Old Senior Notes
On February 8, 2006, Altra Industrial issued the Old Senior Notes, with a face value of £33 million. Interest on the Old Senior Notes was payable semiannually, in arrears, on August 15 and February 15 of each year, beginning August 15, 2006, at an annual rate of 11.25%. The effective interest rate on the Old Senior Notes was approximately 12.7%, after consideration of the $0.7 million of deferred financing costs (included in other assets). The Old Senior Notes were to mature on February 13, 2013.
During 2009, Altra Industrial retired the remaining principal balance of the Old Senior Notes, of £3.3 million or $5.0 million of principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. In connection with the redemption, Altra Industrial incurred $0.2 million of pre-payment premium and wrote-off the entire remaining balance of $0.2 million of deferred financing fees, which is recorded as interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of income. The Old Senior Notes were guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Altra Industrial’s U.S. domestic subsidiaries. The Old Senior Notes contained numerous terms, covenants and conditions, which imposed substantial limitations on the Company.
Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds
In connection with the acquisition of TB Wood’s, the Company assumed obligations for certain Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds outstanding as of the acquisition date. TB Wood’s had assumed obligations for approximately $3.0 million and $2.3 million of Variable Rate Demand Revenue Bonds issued under the authority of the industrial development corporations of the City of San Marcos, Texas and City of Chattanooga, Tennessee, respectively. These bonds bear variable interest rates (less than 1% as of April 3, 2010) and mature in April 2024 and April 2022, respectively. The bonds were issued to finance production facilities for TB Wood’s manufacturing operations in those cities, and are secured by letters of credit issued under the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Company currently is leasing the facility in Chattanooga, Tennessee to a third party.
Mortgage
In June 2006, the Company entered into a mortgage on its building in Heidelberg, Germany with a local bank. In 2009, the Company refinanced the Heidelberg mortgage. As of April 3, 2010 the mortgage has a remaining principal of €2.1 million or $2.9 million, and an interest rate of 3.5% and is payable in monthly installments over 15 years.
Capital Leases
The Company leases certain equipment under capital lease arrangements, whose obligations are included in both short-term and long-term debt.

11. Stockholders’ Equity
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company’s Board of Directors established the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) that provides for various forms of stock-based compensation to independent directors, officers and senior-level employees of the Company. The restricted shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Plan generally vest ratably over a period ranging from immediately to 5 years, provided that the vesting of the restricted shares may accelerate upon the occurrence of certain liquidity events, if approved by the Board of Directors in connection with the transactions. Common stock awarded under the Plan is generally subject to restrictions on transfer, repurchase rights, and other limitations and rights as set forth in the applicable award agreements. The shares are valued based on the share price on the date of grant.
The Plan permits the Company to grant restricted stock to key employees and other persons who make significant contributions to the success of the Company. The restrictions and vesting schedule for restricted stock granted under the Plan are determined by the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Compensation expense recorded during the quarters ended April 3, 2010 and March 28, 2009 was $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation is recorded as an adjustment to selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
The following table sets forth the activity of the Company’s unvested restricted stock grants in the year to date period ended April 3, 2010:
                 
            Weighted-average  
    Shares     grant date fair value  
 
Restricted shares unvested December 31, 2009
    560,081     $ 6.55  
Shares granted
    207,555     $ 10.50  
Shares for which restrictions lapsed
    (328,717 )   $ 4.45  
 
           
Restricted shares unvested April 3, 2010
    438,919     $ 10.00  
 
           
Total remaining unrecognized compensation cost was $3.7 million as of April 3, 2010, which will be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of three years. The fair market value of the shares in which the restrictions have lapsed during the quarter ended April 3, 2010 was $4.1 million. Restricted shares granted are valued based on the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant.
12. Concentrations of Credit, Segment Data and Workforce
Financial instruments, which are potentially subject to counter party performance and concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. The Company manages these risks by conducting credit evaluations of customers prior to delivery or commencement of services. When the Company enters into a sales contract, collateral is normally not required from the customer. Payments are typically due within thirty days of billing. An allowance for potential credit losses is maintained, and losses have historically been within management’s expectations. No customer represented greater than 10% of total sales for the quarters ended April 3, 2010 and March 28, 2009.
The Company is also subject to counter party performance risk of loss in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments, such as cash and investments. Cash and investments are held by international or well established financial institutions.

The Company has five operating segments that are regularly reviewed by our chief operating decision maker. Each of these operating segments represents a unit that produces mechanical power transmission products. The Company aggregates all of the operating segments into one reportable segment. The five operating segments have similar long-term average gross profit margins. All of our products are sold by one global sales force and we have one global marketing function. Strategic markets and industries are determined for the entire company and then targeted by the brands. All of our operating segments have common manufacturing and production processes. Each segment includes a machine shop which uses similar equipment and manufacturing techniques. Each of our segments uses common raw materials, such as aluminum, steel and copper. The materials are purchased and procurement contracts are negotiated by one global purchasing function.
We serve the general industrial market by selling to original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”) and distributors. Our OEM and distributor customers serve the general industrial market. Resource allocation decisions such as capital expenditure requirements and headcount requirements are made at a consolidated level and allocated to the individual operating segments.
Discrete financial information is not available by product line at the level necessary for management to assess performance or make resource allocation decisions.

13. Commitments and Contingencies
General Litigation
The Company is involved in various pending legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of business. None of these legal proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. With respect to these proceedings, management believes that the Company will prevail, has adequate insurance coverage or has established appropriate reserves to cover potential liabilities. Any costs that management estimates may be paid related to these proceedings or claims are accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. There can be no assurance, however, as to the ultimate outcome of any of these matters, and if all or substantially all of these legal proceedings were to be determined adversely to the Company, there could be a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. As of April 3, 2010 and December 31, 2009, there were no product liability claims for which management believed a loss was probable. As a result, no amounts were accrued in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for product liability losses at those dates.
The Company is indemnified under the terms of certain acquisition agreements for certain pre-existing matters up to agreed upon limits.

15. Guarantor Subsidiaries
The following condensed consolidating financial statements present separately the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for (a) the Company, as parent, (b) the guarantor subsidiaries of the Company consisting of all of the, directly or indirectly, 100% owned U.S. domestic subsidiaries of the Company, (c) the non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Company consisting of all non-domestic subsidiaries of the Company, and (d) eliminations necessary to arrive at the Company’s information on a consolidated basis.

Table of Contents

Although we were incorporated in Delaware in 2004, much of our current business has its roots with the prior acquisition by Colfax Corporation, or Colfax, of a series of power transmission businesses. In December 1996, Colfax acquired the MPT group of Zurn Technologies, Inc. Colfax subsequently acquired Industrial Clutch Corp. in May 1997, Nuttall Gear Corp. in July 1997 and the Boston Gear and Delroyd Worm Gear brands in August 1997 as part of Colfax’s acquisition of Imo Industries, Inc. In February 2000, Colfax acquired Warner Electric, Inc., which sold products under the Warner Electric, Formsprag Clutch, Stieber, and Wichita Clutch brands. Colfax formed Power Transmission Holding LLC, or “PTH”, in June 2004 to serve as a holding company for all of these power transmission businesses. Boston Gear was established in 1877, Warner Electric, Inc. in 1927, and Wichita Clutch in 1949.
On November 30, 2004, we acquired our original core business through the acquisition of PTH from Colfax. We refer to this transaction as the PTH Acquisition.
On October 22, 2004, The Kilian Company, or Kilian, a company formed at the direction of Genstar Capital, the then largest stockholder of Altra Holdings, acquired Kilian Manufacturing Corporation from Timken U.S. Corporation. At the completion of the PTH Acquisition, (i) all of the outstanding shares of Kilian capital stock were exchanged for shares of our capital stock and (ii) Kilian and its subsidiaries were transferred to Altra Industrial.
On February 10, 2006, we purchased all of the outstanding share capital of Hay Hall Holdings Limited, or Hay Hall. Hay Hall was a UK-based holding company established in 1996 that was focused primarily on the manufacture of couplings and clutch brakes. Hay Hall consisted of five main businesses that were niche focused and had strong brand names and established reputations within their primary markets.
Through Hay Hall, we acquired 15 strong brands in complementary product lines, improved customer leverage, and expanded geographic presence in over 11 countries. Hay Hall’s product offerings diversified our revenue base and strengthened our key product areas, such as electric clutches, brakes, and couplings. Matrix International, Inertia Dynamics and Twiflex, three Hay Hall businesses, combined with Warner Electric, Wichita Clutch, Formsprag Clutch and Stieber, make the consolidated company one of the largest individual manufacturers of industrial clutches and brakes in the world.
On May 18, 2006, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Bear Linear Inc., or Warner Linear. Warner Linear manufactures high value-added linear actuators which are electromechanical power transmission devices designed to move and position loads linearly for mobile off-highway and industrial applications. Warner Linear’s product design and engineering expertise, coupled with our sourcing alliance with a low cost country manufacturer, were critical components in our strategic expansion into the motion control market.
On April 5, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of TB Wood’s Corporation, or TB Wood’s. TB Wood’s is an established designer, manufacturer and marketer of mechanical and electronic industrial power transmission products with a history dating back to 1857.
On October 5, 2007, we acquired substantially all of the assets of All Power Transmission Manufacturing, Inc., or All Power.
On December 31, 2007, we sold the TB Wood’s adjustable speed drives business or Electronics Division. We sold the Electronics Division in order to continue our strategic focus on our core electro-mechanical power transmission business.
We are a leading global designer, producer and marketer of a wide range of MPT and motion control products with a presence in over 70 countries. Our global sales and marketing network includes over 1,000 direct OEM customers and over 3,000 distributor outlets. Our product portfolio includes industrial clutches and brakes, enclosed gear drives, open gearing, couplings, engineered bearing assemblies, linear components and other related products. Our products serve a wide variety of end markets including energy, general industrial, material handling, mining, transportation and turf and garden. We primarily sell our products to a wide range of OEMs and through long-standing relationships with industrial distributors such as Motion Industries, Applied Industrial Technologies, Kaman Industrial Technologies and W.W. Grainger.

While the power transmission industry has undergone some consolidation, we estimate that in 2009 the top five broad-based MPT companies represented approximately 21% of the U.S. power transmission market. The remainder of the power transmission industry remains fragmented with many small and family-owned companies that cater to a specific market niche often due to their narrow product offerings. We believe that consolidation in our industry will continue because of the increasing demand for global distribution channels, broader product mixes and better brand recognition to compete in this industry.

Business Outlook
Our future financial performance depends, in large part, on conditions in the markets that we serve and on the U.S. and global economies in general. For 2010, we expect to return to growth activities, but will also continue to focus on generating cash flow, executing on plant consolidations, and maintaining a reduced cost base. Among other items, we expect our growth initiatives in 2010 will include investing in organic growth, seeking strategic acquisitions, targeting key underpenetrated geographic regions, entering new high-growth markets, enhancing our efficiency and productivity through the focusing on the development of our people and processes.
During the first quarter of 2010, it appears that inventory reduction efforts previously executed by our customers have declined significantly as sales to our largest distribution customers have improved. While some of our first-quarter sales increase was likely due to some of our OEM customers restocking their channels, we believe the majority of the increase was due to improvement in end market demand.

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect our reported amounts of assets, revenues and expenses, as well as related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on past experiences and other assumptions we believe to be appropriate, and we evaluate these estimates on an on-going basis. Management believes there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2009. See the discussion of critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Net sales
  $ 127,706     $ 124,540     $ 3,166       2.5 %
The majority of our increase in sales during the first quarter of 2010 is due to the strengthening of the US dollar. Had the 2010 foreign exchange rates remained constant when compared to 2009, sales would have increased $0.2 million or 0.2%. We have seen modest increases in our order rates in our early cycle markets as our distribution customers have ended their inventory de-stocking and OEM customers have increased production. We expect to see continued increases in sales in 2010 compared to 2009.

Gross Profit as a percent of sales
    29.3 %     25.9 %                
The increase in gross profit was primarily due to our cost saving measures put into place in 2009 and productivity improvements we have implemented. Had the 2010 foreign exchange rates remained constant when compared to 2009, gross profit would have increased $4.6 million or 14.4%. We expect our full year 2010 gross profit as a percentage of sales to increase when compared to 2009.

SG&A as a percent of sales
    16.4 %     17.5 %                
The decrease in SG&A was due to our cost reduction efforts which began in the fourth quarter of 2008. Our cost reduction efforts were focused on headcount reductions and the elimination of non-critical expenses which decreased our overall SG&A costs despite the impact of the strengthening US dollar. Due to an increase in sales, SG&A costs as a percentage of sales decreased. During the remainder of 2010, we expect to maintain our SG&A costs through plant consolidations and additional headcount reductions offset by the reintroduction of certain temporarily suspended employee benefits.

Restructuring expenses
  $ 1,046     $ 1,872     $ (826 )     -44.1 %
In March 2009, we adopted a new restructuring plan (the “2009 Altra Plan”) to continue to improve the utilization of our manufacturing infrastructure and to realign our business with the current economic conditions. We expect the 2009 Altra Plan to improve operational efficiency by reducing headcount and consolidating certain facilities. During the first quarter 2010, we recorded $1.0 million of restructuring expenses, of which $0.7 million was related to severance, $0.3 million was related to other restructuring charges, (primarily moving and relocation costs). We expect to incur between $1.3 million and $1.5 million of expenses associated with workforce reductions and consolidation of facilities in 2010.

Interest Expense, net
  $ 4,940     $ 6,349     $ (1,409 )     -22.2 %
Net interest expense decreased due to the lower average outstanding balance of debt in 2010 resulting in a reduction of interest expense and due to the impact of a lower interest rate as a result of our refinancing in late 2009.

Provision for income taxes as a % of income from operations before income taxes
    31.4 %     38.4 %                
The 2010 provision for income taxes, as a percentage of income before taxes, was lower than that of 2009, primarily due to a change in the earnings mix among tax jurisdictions. During the third quarter of 2009, the Company negotiated an agreement with a foreign taxing authority allowing the Company to fully deduct certain interest charges. These interest charges were classified as non-deductible in the first quarter of 2009 tax rate and fully deductible in the first quarter of 2010 tax rate. Additionally, in the first quarter 2010, the Company reversed an unrecognized tax benefit of $0.3 million due to the expiration of the statute of limitations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
We finance our capital and working capital requirements through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Agreement”). We expect that our primary ongoing requirements for cash will be for working capital, debt service, capital expenditures, expenditures in connection with restructuring activities and pension plan funding. In the event additional funds are needed, we could borrow additional funds under our Revolving Credit Agreement, or attempt to raise capital in the equity and debt markets. Presently, we have capacity under our senior secured revolving credit facility to borrow up to $50.0 million. Of this total capacity, we can borrow up to $27.1 million without being required to comply with any financial covenants under the agreement. There can be no assurance however that additional debt financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Similarly, there can be no assurance that equity financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

Senior Secured Notes
In November 2009, the Company issued $210 million of 81/8% Senior Secured Notes (the “Senior Secured Notes”). The Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed by the Company’s U.S. domestic subsidiaries and are secured by a second priority lien, subject to first priority liens securing our senior secured revolving credit facility, on substantially all of our assets and those of our domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the Senior Secured Notes is payable in arrears, semiannually on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on June 1, 2010. The indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes contains covenants which restrict the Company and our subsidiaries. These restrictions limit or prohibit, among other things, their ability to incur additional indebtedness; repay subordinated indebtedness prior to stated maturities; pay dividends on or redeem or repurchase stock or make other distributions; make investments or acquisitions; sell certain assets or merge with or into other companies; sell stock in our subsidiaries; and create liens on their assets. We were in compliance in all material respects with all covenants of the indenture governing the Senior Secured Notes at April 3, 2010.

Senior Secured Credit Facility
Concurrently with the closing of the offering of the Senior Secured Notes, Altra Industrial entered into the Revolving Credit Agreement, which provides for borrowing capacity in an initial amount of up to $50.0 million (subject to adjustment pursuant to a borrowing base and subject to increase from time to time in accordance with the terms of the credit facility). The Revolving Credit Agreement replaced Altra Industrial’s then existing senior secured credit facility and the TB Wood’s existing credit facility.
Altra Industrial and all of its domestic subsidiaries are borrowers, or “Borrowers”, under the Revolving Credit Agreement. Certain of our existing and subsequently acquired or organized domestic subsidiaries that are not Borrowers do and will guarantee (on a senior secured basis) the Revolving Credit Agreement. Obligations of the other Borrowers under the Revolving Credit Agreement and the guarantees are secured by substantially all of Borrowers’ assets and the assets of each of our existing and subsequently acquired or organized domestic subsidiaries that is a guarantor of our obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement (with such subsidiaries being referred to as the “U.S. subsidiary guarantors”), including but not limited to: (a) a first-priority pledge of all the capital stock of subsidiaries held by Borrowers or any U.S. subsidiary guarantor (which pledge, in the case of any foreign subsidiary, will be limited to 100% of any non-voting stock and 65% of the voting stock of such foreign subsidiary) and (b) perfected first-priority security interests in and mortgages on substantially all tangible and intangible assets of each Borrower and U.S. subsidiary guarantor, including accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, general intangibles, investment property, intellectual property, certain real property, cash and proceeds of the foregoing (in each case subject to materiality thresholds and other exceptions).
An event of default under the Revolving Credit Agreement would occur in connection with a change of control, among other things, if: (i) Altra Industrial ceases to own or control 100% of each of its Borrower subsidiaries, or (ii) a change of control occurs under the Senior Secured Notes, or any other subordinated indebtedness.
An event of default under the Revolving Credit Agreement would also occur if an event of default occurs under the indentures governing the Senior Secured Notes or if there is a default under any other indebtedness that any Borrower may have involving an aggregate amount of $10 million or more and such default: (i) occurs at final maturity of such debt, (ii) allows the lender there under to accelerate such debt or (iii) causes such debt to be required to be repaid prior to its stated maturity. An event of default would also occur under the Revolving Credit Agreement if any of the indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Agreement ceases with limited exception to be secured by a full lien of the assets of Borrowers and guarantors.
As of April 3, 2010, we were in compliance in all material respects with all covenant requirements associated with all of our borrowings. As of April 3, 2010, we had no borrowings and $10.4 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement.
Net Cash
                 
    April 3,     December 31,  
    2010     2009  
    (in thousands)  
 
Cash and cash equivalents
  $ 53,566     $ 51,497  
Cash and cash equivalents increased $2.1 million in the quarter ended April 3, 2010.
Cash Flows for quarter ended April 3, 2010
The primary source of funds provided by operating activities of $8.2 million resulted from cash provided from: (i) net income of $5.7 million; and (ii) the add-back of non-cash depreciation, amortization, stock based compensation, accretion of net debt discount, deferred financing costs, and non-cash loss on foreign currency all totaling $6.6 million. This was offset by a net increase in working capital of $4.1 million. The increase in working capital was mainly due to an increase in accounts receivable of $15.1 million, due to increased sales levels throughout the organization. The total working capital increase was partially offset by an increase in accrued expenses of $15.7 million, due to the increased level of sales activity and higher interest expense accruals.

Net cash used in investing activities was $3.9 million for the quarter ended April 3, 2010. This resulted from the purchase of manufacturing equipment of $2.7 million and $1.2 million of additional purchase price paid for settlement of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of Hay Hall.
Net cash used by financing activities was $0.6 million for the quarter ended April 3, 2010. This resulted primarily from payments of capital lease obligations of $0.2 million, $0.1 million of payments on mortgages, and $0.3 million of shares repurchased due to tax withholding.
We intend to use our remaining existing cash and cash equivalents and cash flow from operations to provide for our working capital needs and to fund potential future acquisitions, debt services, capital expenditures, and pension funding. We believe our future operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our future operating and investing cash needs. Furthermore, the existing cash balances and the availability of additional borrowings under our Revolving Credit Agreement provide additional potential sources of liquidity should they be required.
Contractual Obligations
There were no significant changes in our contractual obligations subsequent to December 31, 2009.
Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to various market risk factors such as fluctuating interest rates, changes in foreign currency rates, and changes in commodity prices. At present, we do not utilize any derivative instruments to manage these risks. During the reporting period, there have been no material changes to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding our market risk set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Item 4.   Controls and Procedures
The term “disclosure controls and procedures” is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended or the Exchange Act. These rules refer to the controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. As of April 3, 2010, or the Evaluation Date, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended April 3, 2010, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.   Legal Proceedings
We are, from time to time, party to various legal proceedings arising out of our business. During the reporting period, there have been no material changes to the description of legal proceedings set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Item 1A.   Risk Factors
The reader should carefully consider the Risk Factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Those risk factors described elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 are not the only ones we face, but are considered to be the most material. These risk factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those stated in forward looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q and elsewhere. All risk factors stated in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009 are incorporated herein by reference.
