NOTES TO (UNAUDITED) CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 29, 2013
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (hereinafter referred to as “generally accepted accounting principles”) for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been included and are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the
three and six
months ended
June 29, 2013
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in Stanley Black & Decker, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Form 10-K for the year ended
December 29, 2012
.
In December 2012, the Company sold its Hardware & Home Improvement business ("HHI"), including the residential portion of Tong Lung, to Spectrum Brands Holdings, Inc. ("Spectrum") for approximately
$1.4 billion
in cash. The purchase and sale agreement stipulated that the sale occur in a First and Second Closing. The First Closing, which excluded the residential portion of the Tong Lung business, occurred on December 17, 2012 and resulted in an after-tax gain of
$358.9 million
. The Second Closing, in which the residential portion of the Tong Lung business was sold for
$93.5 million
in cash, occurred on April 8, 2013 and resulted in an after-tax gain of
$4.7 million
. The operating results of the residential portion of Tong Lung have been reported as discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three and six months ended June 29, 2013, while the operating results of HHI have been reported as discontinued operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. Net sales for discontinued operations totaled
$2.1 million
and
$24.4 million
for the three and six months ended June 29, 2013, respectively, and
$247.2 million
and
$474.0 million
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Assets and liabilities held for sale relating to the residential portion of the Tong Lung business totaled
$133.4 million
and
$30.3 million
, respectively, as of December 29, 2012. For further information regarding the HHI divestiture, refer to the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2012.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. While management believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from these estimates.

New Accounting Standards
|
In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2013-02, "Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income." This standard requires additional disclosures regarding the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). This ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted this guidance during the first quarter of 2013.
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)" - Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangibles Assets for Impairment (revised standard). The revised standard is intended to reduce the costs and complexity of the annual impairment testing by providing entities an option to perform a "qualitative" assessment to determine whether further impairment testing is necessary. This ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The Company did not early adopt this guidance for its 2012 annual impairment testing. The Company will adopt this guidance for its 2013 annual impairment testing.
In December 2011, the FASB issued guidance enhancing disclosure requirements on the nature of an entity's right to offset and related arrangements associated with its financial and derivative instruments. The new guidance requires the disclosure of the gross amounts subject to rights of set-off, amounts offset in accordance with the accounting standards followed, and the related net exposure. The new disclosure requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 and interim periods therein. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

During August and September 2012,
4,938,624
stock warrants expired which were associated with the
$320.0 million
convertible notes that matured in May 2012. No shares were issued upon their expiration as the warrants were out of the money.
D. Financing Receivables
Long-term trade financing receivables of
$145.9 million
and
$146.4 million
at
June 29, 2013
and
December 29, 2012
, respectively, are reported within other assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Financing receivables and long-term financing receivables are predominately related to certain security equipment leases with commercial businesses. Generally, the Company retains legal title to any equipment leases and bears the right to repossess such equipment in an event of default. All financing receivables are interest bearing and the Company has not classified any financing receivables as held-for-sale. Interest income earned from financing receivables that are not delinquent is recorded on the effective interest method. The Company considers any financing receivable that has not been collected within
90 days
of original billing date as past-due or delinquent. Additionally, the Company considers the credit quality of all past-due or delinquent financing receivables as nonperforming.
The Company has an accounts receivable sale program that expires on December 11, 2014. According to the terms of that program the Company is required to sell certain of its trade accounts receivables at fair value to a wholly owned, consolidated, bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary (“BRS”). The BRS, in turn, must sell such receivables to a third-party financial institution (“Purchaser”) for cash and a deferred purchase price receivable. The Purchaser’s maximum cash investment in the receivables at any time is
$100.0 million
. The purpose of the program is to provide liquidity to the Company. The Company accounts for these transfers as sales under ASC 860 “Transfers and Servicing”. Receivables are derecognized from the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets when the BRS sells those receivables to the Purchaser. The Company has no retained interests in the transferred receivables, other than collection and administrative responsibilities and its right to the deferred purchase price receivable. At
June 29, 2013
, the Company did not record a servicing asset or liability related to its retained responsibility, based on its assessment of the servicing fee, market values for similar transactions and its cost of servicing the receivables sold.
At
June 29, 2013
and
December 29, 2012
,
$86.7 million
and $
80.0 million
, respectively, of net receivables were derecognized. Gross receivables sold amounted to
$364.3 million
(
$308.4 million
, net) and
$626.3 million
(
$547.3 million
, net) for the
three and six
months ended
June 29, 2013
, respectively. These sales resulted in pre-tax loss of
$0.9 million
and
$1.5 million
for the
three and six
months ended
June 29, 2013
, respectively. Proceeds from transfers of receivables to the Purchaser totaled
$314.9 million
and
$507.3 million
for the
three and six
months ended
June 29, 2013
, respectively. Collections of previously sold receivables, including deferred purchase price receivables, and all fees, which are settled one month in arrears, resulted in payments to the Purchaser of
$283.6 million
and
$500.7 million
for the
three and six
months ended
June 29, 2013
, respectively. Servicing fees amounted to
$0.1 million
and
$0.2 million
for the
three and six
months ended
June 29, 2013
, respectively.
Gross receivables sold amounted to
$309.1 million
(
$276.0 million
, net) and
$566.2 million
(
$504.3 million
, net) for the
three and six
months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. These sales resulted in a pre-tax loss of
$0.8 million
and
$1.4 million
for the
three and six
months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Proceeds from transfers of receivables to the Purchaser totaled
$265.6 million
and
$463.0 million
for the
three and six
months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Collections of previously sold receivables, including deferred purchase price receivables, and all fees, which are settled one month in arrears, resulted in payments to the Purchaser of
$248.6 million
and
$477.6 million
for the
three and six
months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Servicing fees amounted to less than
$0.2 million
and
$0.3 million
for the
three and six
months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
The Company’s risk of loss following the sale of the receivables is limited to the deferred purchase price receivable, which was
$81.8 million
at
June 29, 2013
and
$45.0 million
at
December 29, 2012
. The deferred purchase price receivable will be repaid in cash as receivables are collected, generally within 30 days, and as such the carrying value of the receivable recorded approximates fair value. Delinquencies and credit losses on receivables sold were
$0.3 million
for both the three and six months ended June 29, 2013. Recoveries on receivables sold were
$0.3 million
for both the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2012
. Cash inflows related to the deferred purchase price receivable totaled
$94.3 million
and
$167.9 million
for the
three and six
months ended
June 29, 2013
, respectively, and
$73.0 million
and
$136.5 million
for the
three and six
months ended
June 30, 2012
, respectively. All cash flows under the program are reported as a component of changes in accounts receivable within operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows since all the cash from the Purchaser is either: 1) received upon the initial sale of the receivable; or 2) from the ultimate collection of the underlying receivables and the underlying receivables are not subject to significant risks, other than credit risk, given their short-term nature.

2013 ACQUISITIONS
GQ
On May 28, 2013, the Company purchased a
60%
controlling share in Jiangsu Guoqiang Tools Co., Ltd. ("GQ") for a total purchase price of
$48.5 million
, net of cash acquired. The fair value of the non-controlling interest is
$34.4 million
. GQ is a manufacturer and seller of power tools, armatures and stators in both domestic and foreign markets. The acquisition of GQ complements the Company's existing power tools product offerings and further diversifies the Company's operations and international presence. GQ is headquartered in Qidong, China and is being consolidated into the Company's CDIY segment.
INFASTECH
On February 27, 2013, the Company acquired Infastech for a total purchase price of
$826.4 million
, net of cash acquired. Infastech designs, manufactures and distributes highly-engineered fastening technologies and applications for a diverse blue-chip customer base in the industrial, electronics, automotive, construction and aerospace end markets. The acquisition of Infastech adds to the Company's strong positioning in specialty engineered fastening, an industry with solid growth prospects, and further expands the Company's global footprint with its strong concentration in fast-growing emerging markets. Infastech is headquartered in Hong Kong and is being consolidated into the Company's Industrial segment.
The Infastech acquisition has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting which requires, among other things, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of major assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the consideration transferred over the net assets recognized and represents the expected cost synergies of the combined business, assembled workforce, and the going concern nature of Infastech.
The purchase price allocation for Infastech is preliminary in certain respects. During the measurement period, the Company expects to record adjustments relating to the valuations of certain assets, various opening balance sheet contingencies and income tax matters, amongst others. The Company will complete its purchase price allocation as soon as possible within the measurement period. The finalization of the Company's purchase accounting assessment will result in changes in the valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which the Company does not expect to be material.
The Company also completed
two
smaller acquisitions during 2013 for a total purchase price of
$17.8 million
, net of cash acquired, which are being integrated into our Security and Industrial segments.
2012 ACQUISITIONS
During 2012, the Company completed
seven
acquisitions for a total purchase price of
$696.0 million
, net of cash acquired. The largest of these acquisitions were AeroScout Inc. (“AeroScout”), which was purchased for
$238.8 million
, net of cash acquired, and Powers Fasteners, Inc. (“Powers”), which was purchased for
$220.5 million
, net of cash acquired. AeroScout develops, manufactures, and sells Real-Time Locating Systems ("RTLS") primarily to healthcare and certain industrial customers. Powers distributes fastening products such as mechanical anchors, adhesive anchoring systems, and powered forced-entry systems, mainly for commercial construction end customers. AeroScout was purchased in the second quarter of 2012 and has been integrated within the Security and Industrial segments. Powers was also purchased in the second quarter of 2012 and is part of the CDIY segment. The combined assets acquired for these acquisitions, including
$169.9 million
of intangible assets and
$7.7 million
of cash, was approximately
$279.4 million
, and the combined liabilities assumed were approximately
$95.3 million
. The related goodwill associated with these
two
acquisitions is approximately
$282.9 million
. The total purchase price for the acquisitions was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The purchase accounting for these acquisitions is complete.
Five
smaller acquisitions were completed during 2012 for a total purchase price of
$236.7 million
. The largest of these acquisitions were Lista North America (“Lista”), which was purchased for
$89.7 million
, net of cash acquired, and Tong Lung Metal Industry Co. ("Tong Lung"), which the Company purchased an
89%
controlling share for
$102.8 million
, net of cash acquired, and assumed
$20.1 million
of short term debt. In January 2013, the Company purchased the remaining outstanding shares of Tong Lung for approximately
$12 million
. Lista's storage and workbench solutions complement the Industrial & Automotive Repair division's tool, storage, radio frequency identification ("RFID")-enabled systems, and specialty supply product and service offerings. Tong Lung manufactures and sells commercial and residential locksets. The residential portion of the business was part of the December 2012 HHI sale and closed on April 8, 2013. Lista was purchased in the first quarter of 2012 and is part of the Industrial segment. Tong Lung was purchased in the third quarter of 2012 and is part of the Security segment. The purchase accounting for these acquisitions is complete.

The 2013 pro-forma results were calculated by combining the results of Stanley Black & Decker with the stand-alone results of the 2013 acquisitions for their respective pre-acquisition periods. The following adjustments were made to account for certain costs which would have been incurred during this pre-acquisition period:
|
|
•
|
Elimination of the historical pre-acquisition intangible asset amortization expense and the addition of intangible asset amortization expense related to intangibles valued as part of the purchase price allocation that would have been incurred from January 1, 2013 to the acquisition dates, adjusted for the applicable tax impact.
|
|
|
•
|
Because the 2013 acquisitions were assumed to occur on January 1, 2012, there were no deal costs or inventory step-up amortization factored into the 2013 pro-forma year, as such expenses would have occurred in the first year following the acquisition.
|
The 2012 pro-forma results were calculated by combining the results of Stanley Black & Decker with the stand-alone results of the 2012 and 2013 acquisitions for their respective pre-acquisition periods. The following adjustments were made to account for certain costs which would have been incurred during this pre-acquisition period:
|
|
•
|
Elimination of the historical pre-acquisition intangible asset amortization expense and the addition of intangible asset amortization expense related to intangibles valued as part of the purchase price allocation that would have been incurred from January 1, 2012 to June 30, 2012.

Unamortized gains and fair value adjustments associated with interest rate swaps and the impact of terminated swaps are more fully discussed in
Note I, Derivative Financial Instruments
.
In June 2013, the Company terminated its four year
$1.2 billion
committed credit facility with the concurrent execution of a new five year
$1.5 billion
committed credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”). Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may include U.S. Dollars up to the
$1.5 billion
commitment or in Euro or Pounds Sterling subject to a foreign currency sub-limit of
$400.0 million
and bear interest at a floating rate dependent upon the denomination of the borrowing. Repayments must be made on June 27, 2018 or upon an earlier termination date of the Credit Agreement, at the election of the Company. Simultaneously, the Company terminated its
$1.0 billion
364 day committed credit facility with the concurrent execution of a new
$500 million
364 day committed credit facility (the "Facility"). The Facility contains a
one year
term-out provision and borrowings under the Facility may include U.S. Dollars up to the
$500 million
commitment or in Euro or Pounds Sterling subject to a foreign currency sub-limit of
$250 million
and bear interest at a floating rate dependent upon the denomination of the borrowing. Repayments must be made by June 26, 2014, unless the
one year
term-out election is made, or upon an earlier termination date of the Facility, at the election of the Company. The Credit Agreement and Facility are designated to be a liquidity back-stop for the Company's
$2.0 billion
commercial paper program. As of
June 29, 2013
, the Company has not drawn on either of these commitments.
At
June 29, 2013
, the Company had
$1.3 billion
of borrowings outstanding against the Company’s
$2.0 billion
commercial paper program. At December 29, 2012, the Company had no commercial paper borrowings outstanding.
I. Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, stock prices and commodity prices. As part of the Company’s risk management program, a variety of financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, currency swaps, purchased currency options, foreign exchange contracts and commodity contracts are used to mitigate interest rate exposure, foreign currency exposure and commodity price exposure.
Financial instruments are not utilized for speculative purposes. If the Company elects to do so and if the instrument meets the criteria specified in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 815, management designates its derivative instruments as cash flow hedges, fair value hedges or net investment hedges. Generally, commodity price exposures are not hedged with derivative financial instruments and instead are actively managed through customer pricing initiatives, procurement-driven cost reduction initiatives and other productivity improvement projects.

The counterparties to all of the above mentioned financial instruments are major international financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit risk for net exchanges under these agreements, but not for the notional amounts. The credit risk is limited to the asset amounts noted above. The Company limits its exposure and concentration of risk by contracting with diverse financial institutions and does not anticipate non-performance by any of its counterparties. Further, as more fully discussed in
Note M, Fair Value Measurements
, the Company considers non-performance risk of its counterparties at each reporting period and adjusts the carrying value of these assets accordingly. The risk of default is considered remote.
During the
six
months ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, respectively, cash flows related to derivatives including those that are separately discussed in Cash Flow Hedges, Fair Value Hedges and Net Investment Hedges below resulted in net cash received of
$0.4 million
and
$0.7 million
respectively.
CASH FLOW HEDGES
There was an
$81.6 million
and
$93.5 million
after-tax mark-to-market loss as of
June 29, 2013
and
December 29, 2012
, respectively, reported for cash flow hedge effectiveness in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). An after-tax loss of
$9.2 million
is expected to be reclassified to earnings as the hedged transactions occur or as amounts are amortized within the next twelve months. The ultimate amount recognized will vary based on fluctuations of the hedged currencies and interest rates through the maturity dates.
The tables below detail pre-tax amounts reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings for active derivative financial instruments during the periods in which the underlying hedged transactions affected earnings for the
six
months ended

For the three and
six
months ended
June 29, 2013
, the hedged items’ impact to the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income was a gain of
$1.1 million
and
$2.9 million
, respectively, in Cost of Sales, which is offsetting the loss shown above. For the three and
six
months ended
June 30, 2012
, the hedged items’ impact to the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income was a loss of
$0.2 million
and
$1.0 million
, respectively, in Cost of Sales. There was no impact related to the interest rate contracts’ hedged items and the impact of de-designated hedges was immaterial for all periods presented.
For the three and
six
months ended
June 29, 2013
, an after-tax loss of
$3.1 million
and
$6.6 million
respectively, were reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings (inclusive of the gain/loss amortization on terminated derivative instruments) during the periods in which the underlying hedged transactions affected earnings. For the three and
six
months ended
June 30, 2012
, an after-tax loss of
$0.6 million
and
$0.8 million
respectively, were reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings (inclusive of the gain/loss amortization on terminated derivative instruments) during the periods in which the underlying hedged transactions affected earnings.
Interest Rate Contract:
The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements in order to obtain the lowest cost source of funds within a targeted range of variable to fixed-rate debt proportions. At
June 29, 2013
, and
December 29, 2012
, all interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges had been terminated.
In December 2009, the Company executed forward starting interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of
$400 million
fixing
10 years
of interest payments at
4.78%
. The objective of the hedge was to offset the expected variability on future payments associated with the interest rate on debt instruments. In January 2012, contracts with a total notional amount of
$240 million
of these contracts were terminated. The terminations resulted in cash payments of
$56.4 million
, which was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and will be amortized to earnings over future periods. The cash flows stemming from the termination of such interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges are presented within financing activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
Foreign Currency Contracts
Forward Contracts:
Through its global businesses, the Company enters into transactions and makes investments denominated in multiple currencies that give rise to foreign currency risk. The Company and its subsidiaries regularly purchase inventory from subsidiaries with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies which creates currency-related volatility in the Company’s results of operations. The Company utilizes forward contracts to hedge these forecasted purchases of inventory. Gains and losses reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the effective and ineffective portions of the hedge as well as any amounts excluded from effectiveness testing are recorded in cost of sales. Gains and losses incurred after a hedge has been de-designated are not recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income, but are recorded directly to the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income in Other-net. At
June 29, 2013
, the notional value of forward currency contracts outstanding was
$83.2 million
, all of which was designated, and maturing on various dates in
2013
. At
December 29, 2012
, the notional value of forward currency contracts outstanding was
$154.0 million
, all of which was designated, maturing on various dates in
2013
.
Purchased Option Contracts:
The Company and its subsidiaries have entered into various inter-company transactions whereby the notional values are denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies of the party executing the trade. In order to better match the cash flows of its inter-company obligations with cash flows from operations, the Company enters into purchased
option contracts. Gains and losses reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the effective and ineffective portions of the hedge as well as any amounts excluded from effectiveness testing are recorded in Cost of sales. At
June 29, 2013
, the notional value of purchased option contracts was
$84.0 million
maturing on various dates in
2013
. As of
December 29, 2012
, the notional value of purchased option contracts was
$173.0 million
, maturing on various dates in
2013
.
FAIR VALUE HEDGES
Interest Rate Risk:
In an effort to optimize the mix of fixed versus floating rate debt in the Company’s capital structure, the Company enters into interest rate swaps. In October 2012, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with notional values which equaled the Company's
$400 million
3.4%
notes due in 2021 and the Company's
$400 million
5.2%
notes due in 2040. In January 2012, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with notional values which equaled the Company's
$150 million
7.05%
notes due in 2028. These interest rate swaps effectively converted the Company's fixed rate debt to floating rate debt based on LIBOR, thereby hedging the fluctuation in fair value resulting from changes in interest rates.
In January 2012, the Company terminated interest rate swaps with notional values equal to the Company’s
$300 million
4.75%
notes due in 2014,
$300 million
5.75%
notes due in 2016,
$200 million
4.9%
notes due in 2012 and
$250 million
6.15%
notes due in 2013. These terminations resulted in cash receipts of
$35.8 million
. The resulting gain of
$28.0 million
was deferred and will be amortized to earnings over the remaining life of the notes. In July 2012, the Company repurchased the
$250 million
6.15%
notes due in 2013 and
$300 million
4.75%
notes due 2014 and, as a result,
$11.1 million
of the previously deferred gain was recognized in earnings at that time.
The changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps during the period were recognized in earnings as well as the offsetting changes in fair value of the underlying notes. The notional value of open contracts was
$950 million
as of both
June 29, 2013
and
December 29, 2012
. A summary of the fair value adjustments relating to these swaps is as follows (in millions):

In addition to the amounts in the table above, the net swap accruals for each period and amortization of the gains on terminated swaps are also reported as a reduction of interest expense and totaled
$5.7 million
and
$11.7 million
for the three and
six
months ended June 29, 2013, respectively, and
$6.6 million
and
$13.2 million
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. Interest expense on the underlying debt was
$11.1 million
and
$22.5 million
for the three and
six
months ended June 29, 2013, respectively, and
$6.1 million
and
$15.8 million
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.
NET INVESTMENT HEDGES
Foreign Exchange Contracts:
The Company utilizes net investment hedges to offset the translation adjustment arising from re-measurement of its investment in the assets and liabilities of its foreign subsidiaries. The total after-tax amounts in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were losses of
$30.1 million
and
$63.3 million
at
June 29, 2013
and
December 29, 2012
, respectively. As of
June 29, 2013
, the Company had foreign exchange contracts maturing on various dates through April 2014 with notional values totaling
$959.0 million
outstanding hedging a portion of its pound sterling denominated net investment. As of
December 29, 2012
, the Company had foreign exchange contracts maturing on various dates through October 2013 with notional values totaling
$940.6 million
outstanding hedging a portion of its pound sterling denominated net investment. For the
six
months ended June 29,
2013
, maturing foreign exchange contracts resulted in net cash receipts of
$1.7 million
. For the
six
months ended June 30,
2012
, maturing foreign exchange contracts resulted in net cash receipts of
$7.0 million
. Gains and losses on net investment hedges remain in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until disposal of the underlying assets.

UNDESIGNATED HEDGES
Foreign Exchange Contracts:
Currency swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts are used to reduce risks arising from the change in fair value of certain foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities (such as affiliate loans, payables and receivables). The objective of these practices is to minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on operating results. The total notional amount of the contracts outstanding at
June 29, 2013
was
$2.4 billion
of forward contracts and
$99.8 million
in currency swaps, maturing on various dates primarily through April 2014 with the currency swap maturing in December 2014. The total notional amount of the contracts outstanding at
December 29, 2012
was
$4.3 billion
of forward contracts and
$105.6 million
in currency swaps. The income statement impacts related to derivatives not designated as hedging instruments for 2013 and 2012 are as follows (in millions):

In January 2013, the Company elected to prepay the forward share purchase contract on its common stock for
$362.7 million
. This contract obligated the Company to pay
$350.0 million
, plus an additional amount related to the forward component of the contract, to the financial institution counterparty not later than August
2013
, or earlier at the Company’s option, for the
5,581,400
shares purchased. The reduction of common shares outstanding was recorded at the inception of the forward share purchase contract and factored into the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding.
In December 2012, the Company entered into a forward starting accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) contract with certain financial institutions to purchase
$850 million
of the Company's common stock. The Company paid
$850 million
to the financial institutions and received an initial delivery of
9,345,794
shares, which reduced the Company's shares outstanding at December 29, 2012. The value of the initial shares received on the date of purchase was
$680 million
, reflecting a
$72.76
price per share which was recorded as a treasury share purchase for purposes of calculating earnings per share. In accordance with ASC 815-40, the Company recorded the remaining
$170 million
as a forward contract indexed to its own common stock in additional paid in capital. In April 2013, the Company settled the contract and received
1,608,695
shares determined by the average price per share paid by the financial institutions during the purchase period. The average price is calculated using the volume weighted average price ("VWAP") of the Company's stock (inclusive of a VWAP discount) during that period.
In November 2012, the Company purchased from certain financial institutions over the counter “out-of-the-money” capped call options, subject to adjustments for standard anti-dilution provisions, on
10,094,144
shares of its common stock for an aggregate premium of
$29.5 million
, or an average of
$2.92
per share. The purpose of the capped call options is to reduce share price volatility on potential future share repurchases. In accordance with ASC 815-40 the premium paid was recorded as a reduction of Shareowners’ equity. The average lower strike price is
$71.43
and the average upper strike price is
$79.75
, subject to customary market adjustments. The remaining capped call options were net-share settled and the Company received
617,037
shares in April 2013.
Convertible Preferred Units and Equity Option
As described more fully in
Note H, Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements
, of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended
December 29, 2012
, in November 2010 the Company issued Convertible Preferred Units comprised of
$632.5 million
of Notes due November 17, 2018 and Purchase Contracts. There have been no changes to the terms of the Convertible Preferred Units. The Purchase Contracts obligate the holders to purchase, on the earlier of (i) November 17, 2015 (the Purchase Contract Settlement date) or (ii) the triggered early settlement date,
6,325,000
shares, for
$100
per share, of the Company’s
4.75%
Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Convertible Preferred Stock”), resulting in cash proceeds to the Company of up to
$632.5 million
.
Following the issuance of Convertible Preferred Stock upon settlement of a holder’s Purchase Contracts, a holder of Convertible Preferred Stock may, at its option, at any time and from time to time, convert some or all of its outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock at a conversion rate of
1.3333
shares of the Company’s common stock per share of Convertible Preferred Stock (subject to customary anti-dilution provisions), which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately
$75.00
per share of common stock. Assuming conversion of the
6,325,000
shares of Convertible Preferred Stock at the
1.3333
initial conversion rate, a total of
8,433,123
shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued upon conversion. As of
June 29, 2013
, due to the customary anti-dilution provisions, the conversion rate on the Convertible Preferred Stock is
1.3527
(equivalent to a conversion price of approximately
$73.93
per common share). In the event that holders elect to settle their Purchase Contracts prior to November 17, 2015, the Company will deliver a number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock equal to
85%
of the Purchase Contracts tendered, together with cash in lieu of fractional shares. Upon a conversion on or after November 15, 2015 the Company may elect to pay or deliver, as the case may be, solely shares of common stock, together with cash in lieu of fractional shares (“physical settlement”), solely cash (“cash settlement”), or a combination of cash and common stock (“combination settlement”). The Company may redeem some or all of the Convertible Preferred Stock on or after December 22, 2015 at a redemption price equal to
100%
of the
$100
liquidation preference per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption date.
In November 2010, contemporaneously with the issuance of the Convertible Preferred Units described above, the Company paid
$50.3 million
, or an average of
$5.97
per option, to enter into capped call transactions (equity options) on
8,433,123
shares of common stock with certain major financial institutions. The purpose of the capped call transactions is to offset the common shares that may be deliverable upon conversion of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock. With respect to the impact on the Company, the capped call transactions and the Convertible Preferred Stock, when taken together, result in the economic equivalent of having the conversion price on the Convertible Preferred Stock at
$96.55
, the upper strike price of the capped call (as of
June 29, 2013
). Refer to
Note H, Long-Term Debt and Financing Arrangements
, and
Note J, Capital Stock
, of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended
December 29, 2012
for further discussion. In accordance with ASC 815-40 the
$50.3 million
premium paid was recorded as a reduction to equity.
The capped call transactions cover, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, the number of shares of common stock equal to the number of shares of common stock underlying the maximum number of shares of Convertible Preferred Stock issuable upon settlement of the Purchase Contracts. Each of the capped call transactions has a term of approximately
5 years
and initially had a lower strike price of
$75.00
, which corresponded to the initial conversion price of the Convertible Preferred Stock, and an upper strike price of
$97.95
, which was approximately
60%
higher than the closing price of the common stock on November 1, 2010. The capped call transactions may be settled by net share settlement (the default settlement method) or, at the Company’s option and subject to certain conditions, cash settlement, physical settlement or modified physical settlement. The aggregate fair value of the options at
June 29, 2013
was
$72.4 million
.

Fair Value Measurements
|
FASB ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurement" defines, establishes a consistent framework for measuring, and expands disclosure requirements about fair value. ASC 820 requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions. These two types of inputs create the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs and significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 — Instruments that are valued using unobservable inputs.
The Company holds various derivative financial instruments that are employed to manage risks, including foreign currency and interest rate exposures. These financial instruments are carried at fair value and are included within the scope of ASC 820. The Company determines the fair value of derivatives through the use of matrix or model pricing, which utilizes verifiable inputs such as market interest and currency rates. When determining the fair value of these financial instruments for which Level 1 evidence does not exist, the Company considers various factors including the following: exchange or market price quotations of similar instruments, time value and volatility factors, the Company’s own credit rating and the credit rating of the counter-party.
The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis for each of the hierarchy levels (millions of dollars):

The fair values of long-term debt instruments are considered Level 2 instruments within the fair value hierarchy and are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the Company’s marginal borrowing rates. The differences in carrying values in long-term debt are attributable to the stated interest rates differing from the Company's marginal borrowing rates. The fair value of the Company’s variable rate short-term borrowings approximate their carrying value at
June 29, 2013
and December 29, 2012. The fair values of foreign currency and interest rate swap agreements, comprising the derivative assets and liabilities in the table above, are based on current settlement values.
As discussed in
Note D, Financing Receivables
, the Company has a deferred purchase price receivable related to sales of trade receivables. The deferred purchase price receivable will be repaid in cash as receivables are collected, generally within 30 days, and as such the carrying value of the receivable approximates fair value.

In the first
six
months of 2013, the Company continued with restructuring activities primarily associated with the Black & Decker merger, Niscayah and other acquisitions, and recognized
$12.2 million
of net restructuring charges. Of those charges,
$30.1 million
relates to severance charges associated with the reduction of approximately
450
employees, which was more than offset by a reversal of
$44.3 million
from the termination of a previously approved restructuring action due to a shifting political and economic landscape in certain European countries. Also included in those charges are facility closure costs of
$9.9 million
and asset impairment charges of
$16.5 million
.
For the three months ended June 29, 2013, the Company recognized a net restructuring credit of
$30.7 million
. This net credit reflects
$11.0 million
of severance charges associated with the reduction of approximately
200
employees, which was more than offset by a reversal of
$44.3 million
due to the termination of a previously approved restructuring action as described above. This net credit also reflects facility closure costs of
$2.6 million
.
The majority of the
$77.1 million
of reserves remaining as of
June 29, 2013
is expected to be utilized within the next 12 months.
Segments:
The
$12.2 million
of net charges recognized in the first
six
months of 2013 includes:
$0.8 million
of charges pertaining to the CDIY segment;
$38.4 million
of net reserve reductions pertaining to the Industrial segment;
$33.3 million
of charges
pertaining to the Security segment; and
$16.5 million
pertaining to Corporate charges. During the second quarter of 2013, the Company recognized a net reserve reduction of
$30.7 million
including
$1.8 million
of charges pertaining to the CDIY segment;
$40.9 million
of net reserve reductions pertaining to the Industrial segment; and
$8.4 million
of charges pertaining to the Security segment.
The Company recognized income tax expense of
$53.2 million
and
$62.0 million
for the
three and six
month periods ended
June 29, 2013
, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of
21.5%
and
18.3%
, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory tax rate for the
three and six
month periods ended
June 29, 2013
primarily due to a portion of the Company's earnings realized in lower-taxed foreign jurisdictions, the acceleration of certain tax credits, the recurring benefit of various foreign business integration structures and the reversal of certain foreign and U.S. state uncertain tax position reserves, related largely to statute expiration.
The Company recognized income tax expense of
$38.6 million
and
$68.4 million
for the
three and six
month periods ended
June 30, 2012
, respectively, resulting in an effective tax rate of
23.4%
and
22.8%
, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the statutory tax rate for the
three and six
month periods ended
June 30, 2012
, primarily due to a portion of the Company's earnings realized in lower-taxed foreign jurisdictions and the completion of a foreign business integration structure.
The Company is subject to the examination of its income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities both domestically and internationally. The final outcome of the future tax consequences of these examinations and legal proceedings, as well as, the outcome of competent authority proceedings, changes and interpretation in regulatory tax laws, or expiration of statute of limitations could impact the Company's financial statements. Accordingly, the Company has tax reserves recorded for which it is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized tax benefit will increase or decrease which could have a material effect on the financial results for any particular fiscal quarter or year. However, based on the uncertainties associated with litigation and the status of examinations, including the protocols of finalizing audits by the relevant tax authorities which could include formal legal proceedings, it is not possible to estimate the impact of any such change.
Q. Business Segments
The Company classifies its business into three reportable segments, which also represent its operating segments: Construction & Do It Yourself (“CDIY”), Industrial and Security.
The CDIY segment is comprised of the Professional Power Tool business, the Consumer Products Group, the Hand Tools & Storage business, and the Fastening & Accessories business. The Professional Power Tool business sells professional grade corded and cordless electric power tools and equipment including drills, impact wrenches and drivers, grinders, saws, routers and sanders. The Consumer Products Group sells corded and cordless electric power tools sold under the Black & Decker brand, lawn and garden products and home products. The Hand Tools & Storage business sells measuring and leveling tools, planes, hammers, demolition tools, knives, saws and chisels. The Fastening & Accessories business sells pneumatic tools and fasteners including nail guns, nails, staplers and staples, concrete and masonry anchors, as well as power tool accessories which include drill bits, router bits, abrasives and saw blades.
The Industrial segment is comprised of the Industrial and Automotive Repair ("IAR"), Engineered Fastening and Infrastructure businesses. The IAR business sells hand tools, power tools, and engineered storage solution products. The Engineered Fastening business primarily sells engineered fastening products and systems designed for specific applications
.
The product lines include stud welding systems, blind rivets and tools, blind inserts and tools, drawn arc weld studs, engineered plastic and mechanical fasteners, self-piercing riveting systems, precision nut running systems, micro fasteners, and high-strength structural fasteners & plastics. The Infrastructure business consists of the CRC-Evans business and the Company’s Hydraulics business. The product lines include custom pipe handling machinery, joint welding and coating machinery, weld inspection services and hydraulic tools and accessories.
The Security segment is comprised of the Convergent Security Solutions ("CSS") and the Mechanical Access Solutions ("MAS") businesses. The CSS business designs, supplies and installs electronic security systems and provides electronic security services, including alarm monitoring, video surveillance, fire alarm monitoring, systems integration and system maintenance. Purchasers of these systems typically contract for ongoing security systems monitoring and maintenance at the time of initial equipment installation. The business also includes healthcare solutions, which markets medical carts and cabinets, asset tracking, infant protection, pediatric protection, patient protection, wander management, fall management, and emergency call products. The MAS business sells automatic doors, commercial hardware, locking mechanisms, electronic keyless entry systems, keying systems, tubular and mortise door locksets.
The Company utilizes segment profit, which is defined as net sales minus cost of sales and selling, general, and administrative ("SG&A") inclusive of the provision for doubtful accounts (aside from corporate overhead expense), and segment profit as a percentage of net sales to assess the profitability of each segment. Segment profit excludes the corporate overhead expense element of SG&A, interest income, interest expense, other-net (inclusive of intangible asset amortization expense), restructuring, and income taxes. Refer to
Note O, Restructuring & Asset Impairments
, for the amount of restructuring charges and asset impairments by segment. Corporate overhead is comprised of world headquarters facility expenses, cost for the executive management team and costs for certain centralized functions that benefit the entire Company but are not directly attributable to the businesses, such as legal and corporate finance functions. Transactions between segments are not material. Segment assets primarily include accounts receivable, inventory, other current assets, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and other miscellaneous assets.

Commitments and Contingencies
|
The Company is involved in various legal proceedings relating to environmental issues, employment, product liability, workers’ compensation claims and other matters. The Company periodically reviews the status of these proceedings with both inside and outside counsel, as well as an actuary for risk insurance. Management believes that the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on operations or financial condition taken as a whole.
The amount recorded for identified contingent liabilities is based on estimates. Amounts recorded are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical and legal information that becomes available. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from the estimates, given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating certain exposures.
In connection with the 2010 merger with Black & Decker, the Company assumed certain commitments and contingent liabilities. Black & Decker is a party to litigation and administrative proceedings with respect to claims involving the discharge of hazardous substances into the environment. Some of these assert claims for damages and liability for remedial investigations and clean-up costs with respect to sites that have never been owned or operated by Black & Decker but at which Black & Decker has been identified as a potentially responsible party. Other matters involve current and former manufacturing facilities.
The Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board have each initiated administrative proceedings against Black & Decker and certain of its current or former affiliates alleging that Black & Decker and numerous other defendants are responsible to investigate and remediate alleged groundwater contamination in and adjacent to a 160-acre property located in Rialto, California. The EPA and the cities of Colton and Rialto, as well as Goodrich Corporation, also initiated lawsuits against Black & Decker and certain of its former or current affiliates in the Federal District Court for California, Central District alleging similar claims that Black & Decker is liable under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, and state law for the discharge or release of hazardous substances into the environment and the contamination caused by those alleged releases. The City of Colton also has a companion case in California State court. The City of Riverside has a similar suit in California State Court with similar claims and the same parties. Both of these cases are currently stayed for all purposes. Certain defendants in that case have cross-claims against other defendants and have asserted claims against the State of California. The administrative proceedings and the lawsuits generally allege that West Coast Loading Corporation (“WCLC”), a defunct company that operated in Rialto between 1952 and 1957, and an as yet undefined number of other defendants are responsible for the release of perchlorate and solvents into the groundwater basin, and that Black & Decker and certain of its current or former affiliates are liable as a “successor” of WCLC. The Company's settlement discussions among the EPA and numerous other parties progressed throughout late 2012, culminating in the settlement of the EPA's claims against the Company, as well as all other administrative proceedings and lawsuits involving Black & Decker related to the WCLC site, except for the City of Riverside's state court lawsuit. (That lawsuit has been stayed and will, the Company believes, ultimately be rendered moot by the implementation of an interim and final remedy at the site.) This settlement is embodied in a Consent Decree that was filed with the United States District Court for the Central District of California on or about December 4, 2012. The Consent Decree is a public document, and was approved by the Court on July 3, 2013. In substance, Emhart Industries, Inc. (a dissolved, former indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of The Black & Decker Corporation) (“Emhart”) has agreed to be responsible for an interim remedy at the site, which remedy will be funded by (i) amounts gathered by EPA from multiple parties and placed in trust, and, to the extent necessary, (ii) Emhart's affiliate. The interim remedy requires the construction of a water treatment facility and the filtering of ground water at or around the Rialto property for a period of approximately
30
years or more.
The EPA has asserted claims in federal court in Rhode Island against certain current and former affiliates of Black & Decker related to environmental contamination found at the Centredale Manor Restoration Project Superfund ("Centredale") site,
located in North Providence, Rhode Island. The EPA has discovered a variety of contaminants at the site, including but not limited to, dioxins, polychlorinated biphenyls, and pesticides. The EPA alleges that Black & Decker and certain of its current and former affiliates are liable for site clean-up costs under CERCLA as successors to the liability of Metro-Atlantic, Inc., a former operator at the site, and demanded reimbursement of the EPA’s costs related to this site. Black & Decker and certain of its current and former affiliates contest the EPA's allegation that they are responsible for the contamination, and have asserted contribution claims, counterclaims and cross-claims against a number of other potentially responsible parties, including the federal government as well as insurance carriers. The EPA released its Record of Decision ("ROD") in September 2012, which identified and described the EPA's selected remedial alternative for the site. Black & Decker and certain of its current and former affiliates are contesting the EPA's selection of the remedial alternative set forth in the ROD, on the grounds that the EPA's actions were arbitrary and capricious and otherwise not in accordance with law, and have proposed other equally-protective, more cost-effective alternatives. Black & Decker and its affiliate Emhart Industries, Inc. are vigorously litigating the issue of their liability for environmental conditions at the Centredale site. If either or both entities are found liable, the Company's estimated remediation costs related to the Centredale site (including the EPA’s past costs as well as costs of additional investigation, remediation, and related costs such as EPA’s oversight costs, less escrowed funds contributed by primary potentially responsible parties (PRPs) who have reached settlement agreements with the EPA), which the Company considers to be probable and reasonably estimable, range from approximately
$68.1 million
to
$139.7 million
, with no amount within that range representing a more likely outcome until such time as the litigation is resolved through judgment or compromise. The Company’s reserve for this environmental remediation matter of
$68.1 million
reflects the fact that the EPA considers Metro-Atlantic, Inc. to be a primary source of contamination at the site. As the specific nature of the environmental remediation activities that may be mandated by the EPA at this site have not yet been finally determined through the on-going litigation, the ultimate remedial costs associated with the site may vary from the amount accrued by the Company at
June 29, 2013
.
In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various lawsuits and claims. In addition, the Company is a party to a number of proceedings before federal and state regulatory agencies relating to environmental remediation. Also, the Company, along with many other companies, has been named as a PRP in a number of administrative proceedings for the remediation of various waste sites, including
31
active Superfund sites. Current laws potentially impose joint and several liabilities upon each PRP. In assessing its potential liability at these sites, the Company has considered the following: whether responsibility is being disputed, the terms of existing agreements, experience at similar sites, and the Company’s volumetric contribution at these sites.
The Company’s policy is to accrue environmental investigatory and remediation costs for identified sites when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. In the event that no amount in the range of probable loss is considered most likely, the minimum loss in the range is accrued. The amount of liability recorded is based on an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to each individual site and includes such factors as existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations, and prior experience in remediation of contaminated sites. The liabilities recorded do not take into account any claims for recoveries from insurance or third parties. As assessments and remediation progress at individual sites, the amounts recorded are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical and legal information that becomes available. As of
June 29, 2013
and
December 29, 2012
, the Company had reserves of
$184.5 million
and
$188.0 million
, respectively, for remediation activities associated with Company-owned properties, as well as for Superfund sites, for losses that are probable and estimable. Of the 2013 amount,
$7.5 million
is classified as current and
$177.0 million
as long-term which is expected to be paid over the estimated remediation period. As of
June 29, 2013
, the Company has recorded an asset of
$24.3 million
related to funding by EPA and placed in trust in accordance with the Consent Decree associated with WCLC, as previously discussed. Accordingly, the Company's cash obligation as of
June 29, 2013
associated with the aforementioned remediation activities is
$160.2 million
. The range of environmental remediation costs that is reasonably possible is
$138.1 million
to
$277.0 million
which is subject to change in the near term. The Company may be liable for environmental remediation of sites it no longer owns. Liabilities have been recorded on those sites in accordance with policy.
The amount recorded for identified contingent liabilities is based on estimates. Amounts recorded are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical and legal information that becomes available. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from the estimates, given the inherent uncertainties in evaluating certain exposures. Subject to the imprecision in estimating future contingent liability costs, the Company does not expect that any sum it may have to pay in connection with these matters in excess of the amounts recorded will have a materially adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

The Company has guaranteed a portion of the residual value arising from its synthetic lease program. This lease guarantee is for an amount up to
$26.3 million
while the fair value of the underlying building is estimated at
$30.8 million
. The related assets would be available to satisfy the guarantee obligations and therefore it is unlikely the Company will incur any future loss associated with this guarantee.
The Company provides various limited and full recourse guarantees to financial institutions that provide financing to U.S. and Canadian Mac Tool distributors for their initial purchase of the inventory and trucks necessary to function as a distributor. In addition, the Company provides limited and full recourse guarantees to financial institutions that extend credit to certain end retail customers of its U.S. Mac Tool distributors. The gross amount guaranteed in these arrangements is
$17.7 million
and the
$13.7 million
carrying value of the guarantees issued is recorded in debt and other liabilities as appropriate in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company provides product and service warranties which vary across its businesses. The types of warranties offered generally range from one year to limited lifetime, while certain products carry no warranty. Further, the Company sometimes incurs discretionary costs to service its products in connection with product performance issues. Historical warranty and service claim experience forms the basis for warranty obligations recognized. Adjustments are recorded to the warranty liability as new information becomes available.
The changes in the carrying amount of product and service warranties for the
six
months ended
