FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact they use words such as “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “approximate,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words of similar meaning and expression in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance or events. Forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q may concern, among other things, Kennametal’s expectations regarding our strategy, goals, plans and projections regarding our financial position, liquidity and capital resources, results of operations, market position, and product development, all of which are based on current estimates that involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Among the factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements are risks and uncertainties related to: prolonged economic recession; restructuring and related actions (including associated costs and anticipated benefits); availability and cost of the raw materials we use to manufacture our products; our foreign operations and international markets, such as currency exchange rates, different regulatory environments, trade barriers, exchange controls, and social and political instability; changes in the regulatory environment in which we operate, including environmental, health and safety regulations; our ability to protect and defend our intellectual property; competition; our ability to retain our management and employees; demands on management resources; successful completion of information systems upgrades, including our enterprise system software; potential claims relating to our products; integrating acquisitions and achieving the expected savings and synergies; business divestitures; global or regional catastrophic events; energy costs; commodity prices; labor relations; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; implementation of environmental remediation matters; and implementation of a new segment structure. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, actual outcomes could vary materially from those indicated. These and other risks are more fully described in the “Risk Factors” Section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our other periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to forward-looking statements as a result of future events or developments.

KENNAMETAL INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
1.   ORGANIZATION
    Kennametal Inc. was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1943. Kennametal Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, Kennametal or the Company) are a leading global manufacturer and supplier of tooling, engineered components and advanced materials consumed in production processes. We believe that our reputation for manufacturing excellence, as well as our technological expertise and innovation in our principle products, has helped us to achieve a leading market presence in our primary markets. End users of our products include metalworking manufacturers and suppliers across a diverse array of industries including the aerospace, defense, transportation, machine tool, light machinery and heavy machinery industries, as well as manufacturers, producers and suppliers in a number of other industries including coal mining, highway construction, quarrying and oil and gas exploration and production industries. Our end users’ products include items ranging from airframes to coal, engines to oil wells and turbochargers to construction. We operate two global business units consisting of Industrial and Infrastructure.
2.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION
    The condensed consolidated financial statements, which include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries, should be read in conjunction with our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2010 was derived from the audited balance sheet included in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim statements are unaudited; however, we believe that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods were made and all adjustments are normal, recurring adjustments. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full fiscal year. Unless otherwise specified, any reference to a “year” is to a fiscal year ended June 30. For example, a reference to 2011 is to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011. When used in this Form 10-Q, unless the context requires otherwise, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to Kennametal Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.
3.   NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
    Adopted
 
    As of July 1, 2010, Kennametal adopted new guidance on consolidations for enterprises involved with variable interest entities. The guidance modifies how a company determines when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or is not controlled through voting (or similar) rights should be consolidated and clarifies that the determination of whether a company is required to consolidate a variable interest entity is based on, among other things, an entity’s purpose and design and a company’s ability to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance. This guidance requires an ongoing reassessment of whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and also requires additional disclosures about a company’s involvement in variable interest entities and any significant changes in risk exposure due to that involvement. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
    As of July 1, 2010, Kennametal adopted new guidance on accounting for transfers of financial assets. This guidance requires additional disclosure regarding transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
    As of July 1, 2010, Kennametal adopted new guidance on revenue recognition for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The guidance allows companies to allocate arrangement consideration in multiple deliverable arrangements in a manner that better reflects the transaction’s economics and may result in earlier revenue recognition. In addition, the residual method of allocating arrangement consideration is no longer permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

5.   FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
 
    Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels to prioritize the inputs used in valuations, as defined below:
 
    Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
 
    Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
 
    Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable.
 
    As of September 30, 2010, the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized as follows:
                                     
  (in thousands)   Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Total

6.   DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
 
    As part of our financial risk management program, we use certain derivative financial instruments. We do not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and therefore hold no derivative instruments for trading purposes. We use derivative financial instruments to provide predictability to the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates on our consolidated results and to achieve our targeted mix of fixed and floating interest rates on outstanding debt. We account for derivative instruments as a hedge of the related asset, liability, firm commitment or anticipated transaction when the derivative is specifically designated as a hedge of such items. Our objective in managing foreign exchange exposures with derivative instruments is to reduce volatility in cash flow, allowing us to focus more of our attention on business operations. With respect to interest rate management, these derivative instruments allow us to achieve our targeted fixed-to-floating interest rate mix as a separate decision from funding arrangements in the bank and public debt markets. We measure hedge effectiveness by assessing the changes in the fair value or expected future cash flows of the hedged item. The ineffective portions are recorded in other income, net.
 
    The fair value of derivatives designated in the condensed consolidated balance sheet are as follows:
                     
      September 30,     June 30,    
  (in thousands)   2010     2010

    (7,332 )     (2,348 )  
     
 
Total derivatives designated as hedging instruments
    (7,965 )     (2,316 )

    Certain currency forward contracts hedging significant cross-border intercompany loans are considered as other derivatives and therefore do not qualify for hedge accounting. These contracts are recorded at fair value in the balance sheet, with the offset to other income, net. Losses (gains) related to derivatives not designated as hedging instruments have been recognized as follows:
                                         
  Three months ended September 30 (in thousands)   2010     2009    
     
 
Other expense (income), net - currency forward contracts
  $ (2,647 )   $ (2,745 )  
     
    FAIR VALUE HEDGES
 
    Fixed-to-floating interest rate swap contracts, designated as fair value hedges, are entered into from time to time to hedge our exposure to fair value fluctuations on a portion of our fixed rate debt. These interest rate swap contracts convert a portion of our fixed rate debt to floating rate debt. These contracts require periodic settlement and the difference between amounts to be received and paid under the interest rate swap contracts is recognized in interest expense. We had no such contracts outstanding at September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2010, respectively.
 
    In February 2009, we terminated interest rate swap contracts to convert $200.0 million of our fixed rate debt to floating rate debt. These contracts were originally set to mature in June 2012. Upon termination, we received a cash payment of $13.2 million. This gain is being amortized as a component of interest expense over the remaining term of the related debt using the effective interest rate method. During the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, $1.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively, were recognized as reductions in interest expense.

    CASH FLOW HEDGES
 
    Currency forward contracts and range forward contracts (a transaction where both a put option is purchased and a call option is sold), designated as cash flow hedges, hedge anticipated cash flows from cross-border intercompany sales of products and services. Gains and losses realized on these contracts at maturity are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, and are recognized as a component of other expense (income), net when the underlying sale of products or services are recognized into earnings. The notional amount of the contracts translated into U.S. dollars at September 30, 2010 and 2009, was $48.5 million and $14.0 million, respectively. The time value component of the fair value of range forwards is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Assuming the market rates remain constant with the rates at September 30, 2010, we expect to recognize a loss of $0.5 million in the next 12 months on outstanding derivatives.
 
    We enter into floating-to-fixed interest rate swap contracts, designated as cash flow hedges, from time to time to hedge our exposure to interest rate changes on a portion of our floating rate debt. These interest rate swap contracts convert a portion of our floating rate debt to fixed rate debt. We record the fair value of these contracts as an asset or a liability, as applicable, in the balance sheet, with the offset to accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax. At September 30, 2010 we had forward starting interest rate swap contracts outstanding for forecasted transactions that effectively converted a cumulative notional amount of $125 million from floating to fixed interest rates. As of September 30, 2010 we recorded a liability of $7.3 million on these contracts which was recorded as an offset in other comprehensive loss, net of tax. Over the next 12 months assuming the market rates remain constant with the rates at September 30, 2010, we do not expect to recognize into earnings any significant gains or losses on outstanding derivatives. We had no such contracts outstanding at September 30, 2009.
 
    Gains (losses) related to cash flow hedges have been recognized as follows:
                     
  Three months ended September 30 (in thousands)   2010     2009    
     
 
Losses recognized in other comprehensive loss - range forward contracts
  $ (494 )   $ (37 )  
     
 
Gains (losses) reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into
other (income) expense, net - range forward contracts
  $ (25 )   $ 1,408    
     
    No portion of the gains or losses recognized in earnings was due to ineffectiveness and no amounts were excluded from our effectiveness testing for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
7.   RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
 
    We continued to implement restructuring plans to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies. These actions taken in the September quarter related primarily to the rationalization of certain manufacturing facilities. Restructuring and related charges recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2010 amounted to $4.3 million, including $3.3 million of restructuring charges. Restructuring-related charges of $1.0 million were recorded in cost of goods sold during the three months ended September 30, 2010.
 
    Restructuring and related charges recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2009 amounted to $8.5 million, including $7.8 million of restructuring charges. Restructuring-related charges of $0.5 million and $0.3 million were recorded in cost of goods sold and operating expense, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2009.
 
    The combined total pre-tax charges are expected to be approximately $160 million to $165 million, which is expected to be approximately 70% Industrial and 30% Infrastructure. We expect the majority of these pre-tax charges to be severance charges. Total restructuring and related charges since inception of $133 million have been recorded through September 30, 2010: $94 million in Industrial and $39 million in Infrastructure. The remaining restructuring charges are expected to be completed within the next 6 to 9 months and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures.

8.   DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
 
    On June 30, 2009, we completed the sale of our high speed steel drills and related product lines as we continued to focus on shaping our business portfolio and rationalizing our manufacturing footprint. This divestiture was accounted for as discontinued operations. Cash proceeds received from this divestiture amounted to $28.5 million. We did not incur any pre-tax charges related to this divestiture during the three months ended September 30, 2010. We incurred pre-tax charges related to the divestiture of $2.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2009. These pre-tax charges as well as the related tax effects were recorded in discontinued operations. We do not expect to incur any additional pre-tax charges related to this divestiture.

    As of September 30, 2010, participating executives had been granted awards under the Kennametal Inc. 2008 Strategic Transformational Equity Program, under the 2002 Plan (STEP), equal to that number of restricted stock units having a value of $30.3 million. A further amount of $7.0 million remains available under the STEP for additional awards that could be made to other executives; however, the Company has decided that it will not make any further awards under the STEP. No new grants under the STEP were made in the three months ended September 30, 2010. There are no voting rights or dividends associated with restricted stock units under the STEP.

    Under the STEP, there are two interim measurement dates, September 30, 2009 and 2010, and a final measurement date, September 30, 2011, at which performance is assessed. Participants may earn up to a cumulative 35 percent of the maximum restricted stock units awarded if certain threshold levels of performance are achieved through the two interim measurement dates. The threshold level of performance for September 30, 2010 and 2009 were not achieved and no restricted stock units were earned under the STEP. Generally, the payment of any restricted stock units under the STEP is also conditioned upon the participants being employed by the Company on the date of distribution and the satisfaction of all other provisions of the STEP. As of September 30, 2010, no restricted stock units have been earned or paid under the STEP.
 
    The unvested EPS performance-based STEP restricted stock units as of September 30, 2010 were 502,371 and the weighted average fair value was $35.54.
 
    As of September 30, 2010, we assumed that none of the EPS performance-based restricted stock units will vest.
 
    There were no new TSR performance-based restricted stock units granted under the STEP during the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The unvested TSR performance-based STEP restricted stock units as of September 30, 2010 were 270,501 and the weighted average fair value was $8.35.
 
    During the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, compensation expense related to STEP restricted stock units was $0.2 million in both years. As of September 30, 2010, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested STEP restricted stock units was $0.5 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.0 years.

    We used the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method of valuing inventories for approximately 48 percent and 51 percent of total inventories at September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2010, respectively. Because inventory valuations under the LIFO method are based on an annual determination of quantities and costs as of June 30 of each year, the interim LIFO valuations are based on our projections of expected year-end inventory levels and costs. Therefore, the interim financial results are subject to any final year-end LIFO inventory adjustments.

12.   LONG-TERM DEBT AND CAPITAL LEASES
    Debt and capital lease obligations consist primarily of Senior Unsecured Notes issued in June 2002 having an aggregate face amount of $300.0 million as well as borrowings under a five-year, multi-currency, revolving credit facility (2010 Credit Agreement) which permits revolving credit loans of up to $500.0 million for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. The 2010 Credit Agreement allows for borrowings in U.S. dollars, euro, Canadian dollars, pound sterling and Japanese yen. Interest payable under the 2010 Credit Agreement is based upon the type of borrowing under the facility and may be (1) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, (2) the greater of the prime rate or the Federal Funds effective rate plus an applicable margin, or (3) fixed as negotiated by us.
 
    The 2010 Credit Agreement requires us to comply with various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including two financial covenants: a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as those terms are defined in the agreement). We were in compliance with these financial covenants as of September 30, 2010. We had no borrowings outstanding under the 2010 Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2010.
 
    Borrowings under the 2010 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries.
 
    Fixed rate debt had a fair market value of $323.6 million and $325.5 million at September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2010, respectively. The fair value is determined based on the quoted market price of this debt as of September 30, 2010 and June 30, 2010, respectively.
13.   ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
    The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain of our locations.
 
    Superfund Sites We are involved as a Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) at various sites designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) as Superfund sites. For certain of these sites, we have evaluated the claims and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites, proceedings are in the very early stages and have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation, the timing and extent of remedial action that may be required by governmental authorities or the amount of our liability alone or in relation to that of any other PRPs.
 
    Other Environmental Issues We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental issues. At September 30, 2010, the total accrual for these reserves was $5.8 million. This total represents anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues. We recorded favorable foreign currency translation adjustments of $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010.
 
    The reserves we have established for environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the costs of addressing all identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the USEPA, other governmental agencies, and by the PRP groups in which we are participating. Although the reserves currently appear to be sufficient to cover these environmental liabilities, there are uncertainties associated with environmental liabilities, and we can give no assurance that our estimate of any environmental liability will not increase or decrease in the future. The reserved and unreserved liabilities for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government on these matters.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
    We maintain a Corporate Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) Department, as well as an EHS Steering Committee, to monitor compliance with environmental regulations and to oversee remediation activities. In addition, we have designated EHS coordinators who are responsible for each of our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EHS Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we review financial provisions and reserves for environmental contingencies and adjust these reserves when appropriate.
14.   INCOME TAXES
    The effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was 27.6 percent (provision on income) compared to 39.6 percent (benefit on a loss), respectively. The prior year rate reflects a benefit from certain favorable tax settlements in the United States and Europe.
15.   EARNINGS PER SHARE
    Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while diluted earnings per share is calculated to reflect the potential dilution that occurs related to the issuance of capital stock through grants of capital stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units. The difference between basic and diluted earnings per share relates solely to the effect of capital stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units.
    For purposes of determining the number of diluted shares outstanding at September 30, 2010, weighted average shares outstanding for basic earnings per share calculations were increased due solely to the dilutive effect of unexercised capital stock options, unvested restricted stock awards and unvested restricted stock units by 0.6 million shares. For the three months ended September 30, 2009, the effect of these items was anti-dilutive and therefore has been excluded from diluted shares outstanding as well as from the diluted earnings per share calculation. Unexercised capital stock options, restricted stock units and restricted stock awards of 1.5 million and 3.1 million shares at September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

18.   GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS
    Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets of acquired companies. Goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested at least annually for impairment. We perform our annual impairment tests during the June quarter in connection with our annual planning process unless there are impairment indicators that warrant a test prior to that. We tested for impairment under the new segment structure and noted that there was no impairment as of September 30, 2010. See Note 19 for further discussion regarding the Company’s new segments.

19.   SEGMENT DATA
    In order to take additional advantage of growth opportunities as well as to provide a better platform for continually improving the efficiency and effectiveness of operations, we implemented a new operating structure at the start of 2011.
    The new structure provides for an enhanced market sector approach coupled with a more customer-centric focus for the sales organization and other key market-facing functions such as customer service, marketing, product management, engineering and product development. The new structure also involves the formation of a single, global integrated supply chain and logistics organization that unleashes additional opportunities to achieve higher customer satisfaction and realize lower costs to serve. Furthermore, the new structure provides for more uniform management of administrative functions on a global basis to further improve the consistency, effectiveness and efficiency of the services provided by these functions.
    A key attribute of the new structure is the establishment of two new operating segments by market sector which replace the previous two operating segments that were based on a product focus. The two new reportable operating segments are named Industrial and Infrastructure. The Industrial business is focused on customers within the transportation, aerospace, defense and general engineering market sectors, as well as the machine tool industry. The Infrastructure business is focused on customers within the energy and earthworks industries. The formation of the two new reportable operating segments is consistent with the new management approach and internal financial reporting established under the new structure.
    Under the new structure, more corporate expenses will be charged to the new segments than were charged to the previous segments. Corporate expenses related to executive retirement plans, the Company’s Board of Directors and strategic initiatives, as well as certain other costs determined to be non-chargeable, will continue to be reported as Corporate.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
OVERVIEW
Kennametal Inc. is a leading global manufacturer and supplier of tooling, engineered components and advanced materials consumed in production processes. We believe that our reputation for manufacturing excellence, as well as our technological expertise and innovation in our principal products, has helped us to achieve a leading market presence in our primary markets. We believe we are one of the largest global providers of consumable metalcutting tools and tooling supplies. End users of our products include metalworking manufacturers and suppliers across a diverse array of industries including the aerospace, defense, transportation, machine tool, light machinery and heavy machinery industries, as well as manufacturers, producers and suppliers in a number of other industries including coal mining, highway construction, quarrying, and oil and gas exploration and production industries. Our end users’ products include items ranging from airframes to coal mining, engines to oil wells and turbochargers to construction.
We experienced growth for the September quarter across all major served end markets. Our sales for the quarter ended September 30, 2010 grew 29.3 percent compared to sales for the September quarter one year ago. Operating margin for the quarter increased by $67.0 million on sales that were $119.8 million higher, resulting in 56 percent year-over-year operating leverage. Our restructuring programs remain on track to deliver the anticipated annual ongoing pre-tax savings of $160 million to $165 million once all programs are fully implemented and we delivered $39 million of benefits in the quarter ended September 30, 2010.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2010, we recorded net income attributable to Kennametal of $34.9 million or $0.42 per diluted share compared to a loss attributable to Kennametal of $9.8 million or $0.12 loss per diluted share for the three months ended September 20, 2009. Higher sales volume, improved absorption of manufacturing costs due to higher production levels and mix, and incremental restructuring benefits of $9 million were the drivers for our improved performance. These benefits were partially offset by the restoration of temporary cost reductions, higher incentive compensation, and higher professional fees related to strategic projects. The prior year quarter also had a one-time benefit from certain labor negotiations in Europe.
We generated cash flow from operating activities of $26.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2010, driven by our operating performance. Our days sales outstanding decreased by 12 days to 56 days at September 30, 2010 and inventory turns increased due to close management of production and inventory levels.
In addition, we invested further in technology and innovation to continue delivering a high level of new products to our customers. Research and development expenses totaled $17.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. In the current quarter, we generated approximately 40 percent of our sales from new products.
NEW OPERATING STRUCTURE IMPLEMENTED AS OF JULY 1, 2010 In order to take additional advantage of growth opportunities as well as to provide a better platform for continually improving the efficiency and effectiveness of operations, we implemented a new operating structure at the start of 2011.
The new structure provides for an enhanced market sector approach coupled with a more customer-centric focus for the sales organization and other key market-facing functions such as customer service, marketing, product management, engineering and product development. The new structure also involves the formation of a single, global integrated supply chain and logistics organization that unleashes additional opportunities to achieve higher customer satisfaction and realize lower costs to serve. Furthermore, the new structure provides for more uniform management of administrative functions on a global basis to further improve the consistency, effectiveness and efficiency of the services provided by these functions.
A key attribute of the new structure is the establishment of two new operating segments by market sector which replace the previous two operating segments that were based on a product focus. The two new reportable operating segments are named Industrial and Infrastructure. The Industrial business is primarily focused on customers within the transportation, aerospace, defense, general engineering market sectors, as well as the machine tool industry. The Infrastructure business is primarily focused on customers within the energy and earthworks industries. The formation of the two new reportable operating segments is consistent with the new management approach and internal financial reporting established under the new structure.
Under the new structure, more corporate expenses will be charged to the new segments than were charged to the previous segments. Corporate expenses related to executive retirement plans, the Company’s Board of Directors and strategic initiatives, as well as certain other costs determined to be non-chargeable will continue to be reported as Corporate.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
 
The following narrative provides further discussion and analysis of our results of operations, liquidity and capital resources as well as other pertinent matters.
RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS
SALES
Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2010 were $529.2 million, an increase of $119.8 million, or 29.3 percent, from $409.4 million in the prior year quarter. Sales increased organically by 34 percent, partially offset by a 3 percent unfavorable impact from foreign currency effects and an unfavorable impact from fewer business days. The improvement in sales was driven by continued expansion in industrial activity in all of our major served end markets and all major geographies.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $188.7 million, an increase of $70.9 million from $117.8 million in the prior year quarter. This increase was due to higher organic sales volume, improved absorption of manufacturing costs due to higher production levels and favorable product mix, restructuring and other cost reduction benefits. The impact of these items was partially offset by higher raw material costs, unfavorable foreign currency effects of $6.1 million and the restoration of salaries and other employment costs that had been temporarily reduced. The prior year was also favorably impacted by one-time benefits from certain labor negotiations in Europe. The gross profit margin for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was 35.7 percent as compared to 28.8 percent generated in the prior year quarter.
OPERATING EXPENSE
Operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 increased $8.8 million or 7.6 percent to $125.0 million compared to $116.2 million in the prior year quarter. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in employment costs of $8.9 million due mostly to the restoration of salaries and other employment costs that had been temporarily reduced, and higher spending on professional fees of $1.9 million driven by the implementation of certain long-term strategic projects, partially offset by favorable foreign currency effects of $3.5 million.
RESTRUCTURING CHARGES
We continued to implement restructuring plans to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies. The actions taken in the September quarter related primarily to rationalization of certain manufacturing facilities. Restructuring and related charges recorded in the three months ended September 30, 2010 amounted to $4.3 million, including $3.3 million of restructuring charges. Restructuring related charges of $1.0 million were recorded in cost of goods sold during the three months ended September 30, 2010. We realized pre-tax benefits from these restructuring programs of approximately $39 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010. See Note 7 of our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.
The Company’s restructuring programs are on track to deliver the anticipated annual ongoing pre-tax savings of $160 million to $165 million once all programs are fully implemented. The combined total pre-tax charges are expected to be approximately $160 million to $165 million. Total restructuring and related charges recorded from inception to September 30, 2010 were $133 million. The remaining restructuring charges are expected to be completed within the next 6 to 9 months and are anticipated to be mostly cash expenditures.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2010 of $6.0 million decreased $0.4 million, or 6.3 percent, from $6.4 million in the prior year quarter.
OTHER EXPENSE (INCOME), NET
Other expense, net for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was $1.9 million, compared to other income, net of $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily driven by unfavorable foreign currency transaction results of $3.6 million.

INCOME TAXES
The effective income tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 was 27.6 percent (provision on income) compared to 39.6 percent (benefit on a loss), respectively. The prior year rate reflects a benefit from certain favorable tax settlements in the United States and Europe.
During 2011, we expect to generate a nominal amount of taxable income in jurisdictions where we have a valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. The corresponding impact of the realization on the effective tax rate is expected to be immaterial. The benefit realized is expected to be nominal compared to the total net deferred tax assets within the jurisdictions. We believe the sustainability of future income in these jurisdictions remains uncertain. Accordingly, we have not adjusted the valuation allowance against the remaining net deferred tax assets. We will continue to monitor our ability to realize the net deferred tax assets in these jurisdictions, and if appropriate, will adjust the valuation allowance in a future period. Such an adjustment would likely result in a material reduction to tax expense in the period the adjustment occurs.
BUSINESS SEGMENT REVIEW
Our operations are organized into two reportable operating segments consisting of Industrial and Infrastructure, and Corporate. The presentation of segment information reflects the manner in which we organize segments for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Corporate is comprised of costs related to executive retirement plans and strategic initiatives, as well as certain other costs.
Amounts for the three months ended September 30, 2009 have been restated to reflect the change in reportable operating segments.
INDUSTRIAL
                     
  Three months ended September 30 (in thousands)   2010     2009    
     
 
External sales
  $ 330,658     $ 248,353    
 
Operating income (loss)
    36,108       (17,851 )  
     
For the three months ended September 30, 2010, Industrial segment external sales increased by 33.1 percent, driven by organic sales growth of 39 percent, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency effects of 4 percent and an unfavorable impact due to fewer business days. On an organic basis, sales increased in all served market sectors led by growth in general engineering and transportation with an increase of 46 percent and 39 percent, respectively. On a regional basis, sales increased by approximately 40 percent in Asia, 30 percent in the Americas and 22 percent in Europe.
For the three months ended September 30, 2010, Industrial segment operating income increased $54.0 million. The primary drivers of the increase in operating income were higher sales volumes, improved absorption of manufacturing costs due to higher production levels and incremental restructuring benefits.
INFRASTRUCTURE
                     
  Three months ended September 30 (in thousands)   2010     2009    
     
 
External sales
  $ 198,500     $ 161,042    
 
Operating income
    26,503       11,648    
     
For the three months ended September 30, 2010, Infrastructure segment external sales increased by 23.3 percent, driven by 25 percent organic sales growth, slightly offset by unfavorable currency effects and unfavorable impact due to fewer business days. The organic increase was primarily driven by 46 percent higher sales of energy and related products, as well as increased demand for earthworks products. On a regional basis, sales increased by approximately 40 percent in Asia, 22 percent in the Americas and 13 percent in Europe.
For the three months ended September 30, 2010, Infrastructure segment operating income increased $14.9 million to $26.5 million. Operating income improved primarily due to higher sales volumes, increased absorption of manufacturing costs due to higher production levels and incremental restructuring benefits.

CORPORATE
                     
  Three months ended September 30 (in thousands)   2010     2009    
     
 
Operating loss
  $ (5,099 )   $ (3,328 )  
     
For the three months ended September 30, 2010, operating loss increased $1.8 million to $5.1 million. The increase in operating loss was primarily due to higher professional fees related to long-term strategic initiatives of $2.1 million.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash flow from operations is our primary source of funding for capital expenditures and internal growth. During the three months ended September 30, 2010, cash flow provided by operating activities was $26.4 million, driven by improvements in operating performance.
To augment cash from operations and as an additional source of funds, we maintain a syndicated, five-year, multi-currency, revolving credit facility (2010 Credit Agreement) that extends to June 2015. The 2010 Credit Agreement permits revolving credit loans of up to $500.0 million for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. The 2010 Credit Agreement allows for borrowings in U.S. dollars, euro, Canadian dollars, pound sterling and Japanese yen. Interest payable under the 2010 Credit Agreement is based upon the type of borrowing under the facility and may be (1) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, (2) the greater of the prime rate or the Federal Funds effective rate plus an applicable margin, or (3) fixed as negotiated by us.
The 2010 Credit Agreement requires us to comply with various restrictive and affirmative covenants, including two financial covenants: a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio (as those terms are defined in the agreement). We were in compliance with these financial covenants as of September 30, 2010. We had no borrowings outstanding under the 2010 Credit Agreement as of September 30, 2010. Borrowings under the 2010 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by our significant domestic subsidiaries.
At September 30, 2010, cash and cash equivalents was $124.2 million, total Kennametal shareowners’ equity was $1,417.1 million and total debt was $318.8 million. Our current senior credit ratings are at investment grade levels. We believe that our current financial position, liquidity and credit ratings provide access to the capital markets. We continue to closely monitor our liquidity position and the condition of the capital markets as well as the counterparty risk of our credit providers.
There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations and commitments since June 30, 2010.
Cash Flow Provided by Operating Activities
During the three months ended September 30, 2010, cash flow provided by operating activities was $26.4 million, compared to $17.3 million for the prior year period. Cash flow provided by operating activities for the current year period consisted of net income and non-cash items amounting to $68.7 million, partially offset by changes in certain assets and liabilities netting to $42.3 million. Contributing to the changes in certain assets and liabilities was an increase in inventory of $34.0 million driven by an increase in production to meet expected increases in demand, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $9.6 million, and a decrease in other of $5.8 million, partially offset by an increase in domestic and foreign income taxes of $6.3 million.
During the three months ended September 30, 2009, cash flow provided by operating activities consisted of net loss and non-cash items amounting to $19.6 million of cash generation partially offset by changes in certain assets and liabilities netting to $2.3 million. Contributing to the changes in certain assets and liabilities were a decrease in accounts receivable of $2.2 million and a decrease in inventories of $16.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $6.7 million, a decrease in accrued income taxes of $5.3 million and a decrease in other liabilities of $9.3 million.
Cash Flow (Used for) Provided by Investing Activities
Cash flow used for investing activities was $8.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010, compared to cash flow provided by investing activities of $19.5 million in the prior year period. During the three months ended September 30, 2010, cash flow provided by investing activities included capital expenditures, net of $10.0 million, which consisted primarily of software and equipment upgrades.

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
 
For the three months ended September 30, 2009, cash flow provided by investing activities included $27.0 million in cash proceeds from the sale of our high speed steel drills business and related product lines, partially offset by capital expenditures, net of $8.9 million, which consisted primarily of equipment upgrades.
Cash Flow Used for Financing Activities
Cash flow used for financing activities was $26.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to $6.5 million in the prior year period. During the three months ended September 30, 2010, cash flow used for financing activities included a $17.2 million net decrease in borrowings and $10.0 million of cash dividends paid to shareowners.
Cash flow used for financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2009 included a $117.2 million net decrease in borrowings and $9.8 million of cash dividends paid to shareowners, partially offset by $120.7 million in net proceeds from issuance of capital stock.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
At September 30, 2010, total assets increased $112.9 million to $2,380.7 million from $2,267.8 million at June 30, 2010. Total liabilities increased $8.7 million to $943.1 million at September 30, 2010 from $934.4 million at June 30, 2010.
Working capital was $608.9 million at September 30, 2010, an increase of $86.0 million from $522.9 million at June 30, 2010. The increase in working capital was driven primarily by an increase in inventories of $53.8 million driven by an increase in production to meet expected increases in demand, an increase in accounts receivable of $16.1 million due to the increase in sales, an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $6.1 million, and a decrease in current maturities of long-term debt and capital leases, including notes payable of $17.9 million, partially offset by an increase in accrued income taxes and accrued expenses of $15.5 million. Foreign currency effects accounted for $19.7 million, $16.9 million, $9.8 million and $5.9 million of the change in inventory, accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents and accrued income taxes and accrued expenses, respectively.
Property, plant and equipment, net increased $12.9 million from $664.5 million at June 30, 2010 to $677.4 million at September 30, 2010, primarily due to capital additions of $10.1 million, favorable foreign currency impact of $23.4 million, partially offset by, depreciation expense of $19.8 million.
At September 30, 2010, other assets were $705.0 million, an increase of $17.6 million from $687.4 million at June 30, 2010. The drivers for the increase were an increase in goodwill and other intangible assets of $15.5 million driven by foreign currency translation effects.
Long-term debt and capital leases decreased $0.9 million to $313.8 at September 30, 2010 from $314.7 million at June 30, 2010.
Kennametal shareowners’ equity was $1,417.1 million at September 30, 2010, an increase of $101.6 million from $1,315.5 million at June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily due to net income attributable to Kennametal of $34.9 million and foreign currency translation adjustments of $72.7 million, partially offset by cash dividends paid to shareowners of $10.0 million.
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
The operation of our business has exposed us to certain liabilities and compliance costs related to environmental matters. We are involved in various environmental cleanup and remediation activities at certain of our locations.
Superfund Sites We are involved as a PRP at various sites designated by the USEPA as Superfund sites. For certain of these sites, we have evaluated the claims and potential liabilities and have determined that neither are material, individually or in the aggregate. For certain other sites, proceedings are in the very early stages and have not yet progressed to a point where it is possible to estimate the ultimate cost of remediation, the timing and extent of remedial action that may be required by governmental authorities or the amount of our liability alone or in relation to that of any other PRPs.
Other Environmental Issues We establish and maintain reserves for other potential environmental issues. At September 30, 2010, the total accrual for these reserves was $5.8 million. This total represents anticipated costs associated with the remediation of these issues. We recorded favorable foreign currency translation adjustments of $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2010.

ITEM 2.   MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED)
 
The reserves we have established for environmental liabilities represent our best current estimate of the costs of addressing all identified environmental situations, based on our review of currently available evidence, and taking into consideration our prior experience in remediation and that of other companies, as well as public information released by the USEPA, other governmental agencies, and by the PRP groups in which we are participating. Although the reserves currently appear to be sufficient to cover these environmental liabilities, there are uncertainties associated with environmental liabilities, and we can give no assurance that our estimate of any environmental liability will not increase or decrease in the future. The reserved and unreserved liabilities for all environmental concerns could change substantially due to factors such as the nature and extent of contamination, changes in remedial requirements, technological changes, discovery of new information, the financial strength of other PRPs, the identification of new PRPs and the involvement of and direction taken by the government on these matters.
We maintain a Corporate EHS Department, as well as an EHS Steering Committee, to monitor compliance with environmental regulations and to oversee remediation activities. In addition, we have designated EHS coordinators who are responsible for each of our global manufacturing facilities. Our financial management team periodically meets with members of the Corporate EHS Department and the Corporate Legal Department to review and evaluate the status of environmental projects and contingencies. On a quarterly basis, we review financial provisions and reserves for environmental contingencies and adjust these reserves when appropriate.
DISCUSSION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies since June 30, 2010.
NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for a description of new accounting standards.
ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
There have been no material changes to our market risk exposure since June 30, 2010.
ITEM 4.   CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). The Company’s disclosure controls were designed to provide a reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, the controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the controls’ stated goals. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2010.
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
