NOTE C — Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosure about Fair Value Measurements”, requires enhanced disclosures about recurring and nonrecurring fair-value measurements including significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair-value measurements and information on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis of Level 3 fair-value measurements. ASU No. 2010-06 was adopted January 1, 2010, except for the requirement to separately disclose purchases, sales, issuances and settlements of recurring Level 3 fair value measurements, which is effective January 1, 2011.
 
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements,” which amends ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition.” ASU No. 2009-13 amends the ASC to eliminate the residual method of allocation for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements, and requires that arrangement consideration be allocated at the inception of an arrangement to all deliverables using the relative selling price method. The ASU also establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable, which includes: (1) vendor-specific objective evidence if available, (2) third-party evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
 
not available, and (3) estimated selling price if neither vendor-specific nor third-party evidence is available. Additionally, ASU No. 2009-13 expands the disclosure requirements related to a vendor’s multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of the adoption of this guidance on its Consolidated Financial Statements, which is effective for the Company on January 1, 2011.
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance as codified in ASC 810-10, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (previously Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 167, “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)”). This guidance is intended to improve financial reporting by providing additional guidance to companies involved with variable interest entities (“VIEs”) and by requiring additional disclosures about a company’s involvement with variable interest entities. This guidance is generally effective for annual periods beginning after November 15, 2009 and for interim periods within that first annual reporting period. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

(a) No employee stock options were added for this period as the addition of 358,000 shares in the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 478,000 shares in the three months ended September 30, 2009 would result in anti-dilution because the Company reported a net loss in that period.
 
Basic earnings per common share is computed as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average basic shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed as net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
 
Pursuant to ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” when a loss is reported the denominator of diluted earnings per share cannot be adjusted for the dilutive impact of stock options and awards because doing so will result in anti-dilution. Therefore, for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, basic weighted-average shares outstanding are used in calculating diluted earnings per share.
 
Outstanding stock options with exercise prices greater than the average price of the common shares are anti-dilutive and are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share. Stock options on 206,000 and 207,000 shares were excluded in the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010, respectively, because they were anti-dilutive.
 
NOTE G — Stock-Based Compensation
 
Total stock compensation expense recorded in the first nine months of 2010 and 2009 was $1,248 and $1,861, respectively. Total stock compensation expense recorded in the third quarter of 2010 and 2009 was $409 and $658, respectively. There were 624,450 shares of restricted stock awarded during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 at prices ranging from $3.18 to $3.74 per share, of which 34,950 shares were awarded in the three months ended September 30, 2009. There were no stock options awarded during the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. There were 76,000 shares of restricted stock awarded during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010 at prices ranging from $11.65 to $14.73. As of September 30, 2010, there was $2,297 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock-based compensation, which cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.75 years.

NOTE J — Accrued Warranty Costs
 
The Company estimates the amount of warranty claims on sold products that may be incurred based on current and historical data. The actual warranty expense could differ from the estimates made by the Company based on product performance. The following table presents the changes in the Company’s product warranty liability:
 
                 
    2010     2009

Balance at September 30
  $ 3,387     $ 4,258  
                 
 
NOTE K — Income Taxes
 
The Company’s tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective income tax rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, that are taken into account in the relevant period. Each quarter, the Company updates the estimated annual effective income tax rate, and if the estimated income tax rate changes, a cumulative adjustment is made.
 
The 2010 annual effective income tax rate is estimated to be approximately 18% and is lower than the 35% United States federal statutory rate primarily due to anticipated income in the United States for which the Company will record no tax expense and anticipated income earned in jurisdictions outside of the United States where the effective income tax rate is lower than in the United States.
 
The effective income tax rate in the first nine months of 2010 and 2009 was 9% and (51)%, respectively. The primary reason for the variance in the effective income tax rate is because the Company anticipates full-year 2010 income in the United States with no income taxes at September 30, 2010 and anticipated full-year 2009 losses in the United States with no tax benefit at September 30, 2009. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2010, the Company recognized a $1,354 tax benefit due to a reversal of a portion of the valuation allowance against its U.S. net deferred tax assets.

There have been no material changes to the balance of unrecognized tax benefits reported at December 31, 2009.
 
NOTE L — Fair Value Measurements
 
The Company measures financial assets and liabilities at fair value in three levels of inputs. The three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies, is:
 
Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
 
Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
 
Level 3 — Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.
 
The fair value of the 8.375% Subordinated Notes due 2014 is estimated based on a third party’s bid price. The fair value approximated $180,618 at September 30, 2010. The fair value of term loans A and B approximated book value at September 30, 2010.
 
NOTE M — Asset Impairment
 
During the third quarter of 2010, the Company reviewed one of its investments and determined there was dimunition in value and therefore recorded an asset impairment charge of $3,539.
 
NOTE N — Financing Arrangement
 
The Company is a party to a credit and security agreement dated November 5, 2003, as amended (“Credit Agreement”), with a group of banks, under which it may borrow or issue standby letters of credit or commercial letters of credit. On March 8, 2010, and subsequently on August 31, 2010, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to, among other things, extend its maturity date to April 30, 2014 and reduce the loan commitment from $270,000 to $210,000, which includes a term loan A for $28,000 that is secured by real estate and machinery and equipment and an unsecured term loan B for $12,000. Amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility may be borrowed at either (i) LIBOR plus 2.25% to 3.25% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate minus (.25)% to plus .75%, at the Company’s election. The interest rate is dependent on the Company’s debt service coverage ratio, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Under the Credit Agreement, a detailed borrowing base formula provides borrowing availability to the Company based on percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Interest on the term loan A is at either (i) LIBOR plus 3.25% to 4.25% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate plus .75% to 1.75%, at the Company’s election. Interest on the term loan B is at either (i) LIBOR plus 5.25% to 6.25% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate plus 3.25% to 4.25%, at the Company’s election. The term loan A is amortized based on a ten-year schedule with the balance due at maturity. The term loan B is amortized over a two-year period, plus 50% of debt service coverage excess capped at $3,500.

NOTE O — Accounts Receivable
 
During the first nine months of 2010 and 2009, the Company sold approximately $24,637 and $14,192, respectively, of accounts receivable to mitigate accounts receivable concentration risk and to provide additional financing capacity and recorded a loss in the amount of $102 and $65, respectively in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. These losses represented implicit interest on the transactions.
 
NOTE P — Acquisitions
 
Effective August 31, 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of certain assets and assumed specific liabilities relating to Assembly Components Systems (“ACS”) business unit of Lawson Products, Inc. for $16,000 in cash and a $2,160 subordinated promissory note payable in equal quarterly installments over three years. ACS is a provider of supply chain management solutions for a broad range of production components through its service centers throughout North America. The net assets acquired were integrated into the Company’s Supply Technologies business segment. The total purchase price may be adjusted based on the final value of the net assets and liabilities of ACS as of August 31, 2010. The fair value of the net assets acquired of $20,370 exceeded the total purchase price and, accordingly, resulted in a gain on acquisition of business of $2,210. Net sales of $4,400 were added to the Company’s Supply Technologies business segment in 2010 since the date of acquisition. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price is allocated to ACS’s net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of August 31, 2010, the effective date of the acquisition. Based on management’s preliminary valuation of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed which are based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to change, the preliminary estimated purchase price is allocated as follows:
 
         
Accounts receivable
  $ 9,059

The area of purchase price allocation that is not yet finalized relates to the working capital adjustment as of August 31, 2010. Prior to the measurement period for finalizing the purchase price allocation, if information becomes available which would indicate adjustments are required to the purchase price allocation, such adjustments will be included in the purchase price allocation retrospectively. There were no significant direct transaction costs associated with this acquisition included in selling, general and administrative expenses during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2010. These costs will be expensed as incurred in the fourth quarter.
 
On September 30, 2010, the Company entered a Bill of Sale with Rome Die Casting LLC (“Rome”), a producer of aluminum high pressure die castings, pursuant to which Rome agreed to transfer to the Company substantially all of its assets in exchange for approximately $7,500 of notes receivable due from Rome. The assets of Rome will be integrated into the Company’s aluminum segment. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to Rome’s net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of September 30, 2010, the effective date of the acquisition. Based on management’s preliminary valuation of the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the preliminary estimated purchase price is as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Park-Ohio Holdings Corp.
 
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2010, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, and the condensed consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010 and cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
 
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
 
Based upon our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
 
We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended, not presented herein; and in our report dated March 15, 2010, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2009, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Item 2.   Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Executive Overview
 
We are an industrial Total Supply Managementtm and diversified manufacturing business, operating in three segments: Supply Technologies, Aluminum Products and Manufactured Products. Our Supply Technologies business provides our customers with Total Supply Managementtm, a proactive solutions approach that manages the efficiencies of every aspect of supplying production parts and materials to our customers’ manufacturing floor, from strategic planning to program implementation. Total Supply Managementtm includes such services as engineering and design support, part usage and cost analysis, supplier selection, quality assurance, bar coding, product packaging and tracking, just-in-time and point-of-use delivery, electronic billing services and ongoing technical support. The principal customers of Supply Technologies are in the heavy-duty truck, automotive and vehicle parts, electrical distribution and controls, consumer electronics, power sports/fitness equipment, HVAC, agricultural and construction equipment, semiconductor equipment, plumbing, aerospace and defense, and appliance industries. Aluminum Products casts and machines aluminum engine, transmission, brake, suspension and other components such as pump housings, clutch retainers/pistons, control arms, knuckles, master cylinders, pinion housings, brake calipers, oil pans and flywheel spacers for automotive, agricultural equipment, construction equipment, heavy-duty truck and marine equipment original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), primarily on a sole-source basis. Aluminum Products also provides value-added services such as design and engineering and assembly. Manufactured Products operates a diverse group of niche manufacturing businesses that design and manufacture a broad range of highly-engineered products including induction heating and melting systems, pipe threading systems, industrial oven systems, injection molded rubber components, and forged and machined products. Manufactured Products also produces and provides services and spare parts for the equipment it manufactures. The principal customers of Manufactured Products are OEMs, sub-assemblers and end users in the ferrous and non-ferrous metals, silicon, coatings, forging, foundry, heavy-duty truck, construction equipment, automotive, oil and gas, rail and locomotive manufacturing and aerospace and defense industries. Sales, earnings and other relevant financial data for these three segments are provided in Note B to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
During the third quarter of 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of certain assets and assumed specific liabilities relating to the Assembly Components Systems (“ACS”) business of Lawson Products, Inc. for $16.0 million in cash and a $2.2 million subordinated promissory note payable in equal quarterly installments over three years. ACS is a provider of supply chain management solutions for a broad range of production components through its service centers throughout North America. The Company recorded a gain of $2.2 million representing the excess of the aggregate fair value of purchased net assets over the purchase price. See Note P to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
During the third quarter of 2010, the Company recorded an asset impairment charge of $3.5 million related to the write down of one of its investments.
 
On March 8, 2010 and subsequently on August 31, 2010, we amended our revolving credit facility to, among other things, extend its maturity to April 30, 2014 and reduce the loan commitment from $270.0 million to $210.0 million, which amount includes the borrowing under a term loan A for $28.0 million, that is secured by real estate and machinery and equipment, and an unsecured term loan B for $12.0 million. See Note M to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company recorded $7.0 million of asset impairment charges associated with general weakness in the economy including the railroad industry. The charges were composed of $1.8 million of inventory impairment in Cost of Products Sold and $5.2 million for impairment of property and equipment.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our critical accounting policies are described in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2009 contained in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Any new accounting policies or updates to existing accounting policies as a result of new accounting pronouncements have been discussed in the notes to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The application of our critical accounting policies may require management to make judgments and estimates about the amounts reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates and judgments, and different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and estimates.

Net sales increased $79.7 million to $593.0 million in the first nine months of 2010 compared to $513.3 million in the same period in 2009 as the Company experienced volume increases in the Supply Technologies and Aluminum Products segments. Supply Technologies sales increased 22% primarily due to volume increases in the heavy duty truck, semi-conductor, power sports, HVAC, agricultural and construction equipment industries. In addition, there were $4.4 million of sales resulting from the acquisition of the ACS business. These additions were offset by declines in the lawn and garden, medical and automotive industries. Aluminum Products sales increased 45% as volumes increased to customers in the auto industry along with additional sales from new contracts. Manufactured Products sales decreased 3% due to the declining volume in the forged and machined products business unit because of volume declines in the rail industry partially offset by increases in the capital equipment and rubber products business units.

SG&A expenses decreased in the first nine months of 2010 compared to the same period in 2009 primarily due to an increase in pension income and the $2.0 million charge in 2009 for a reserve for an account receivable from a customer in bankruptcy partially offset by an increase in salaries and benefits levels resulting from restoration to 2008 salary levels along with a bonus accrual.

Interest expense increased $.1 million in the first nine months of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009, primarily due to lower average outstanding borrowings offset by a higher average borrowing rate during the first nine months of 2010. The decrease in average borrowings in the first nine months of 2010 resulted primarily from earnings and decreased working capital. The higher average borrowing rate in the first nine months of 2010 was due primarily to increased interest rates under our amended revolving credit facility compared to the same period in 2009.
 
Income Tax:
 
The provision for income taxes was $1.1 million in the first nine months of 2010, a 9% effective income tax rate, compared to income taxes of $1.8 million provided in the corresponding period of 2009, a (51)% effective income tax rate. We estimate that the effective tax rate for full-year 2010 will be approximately 18%, excluding the third quarter of 2010 valuation allowance reversal.

Consolidated net sales increased $34.4 million in the third quarter of 2010 to $203.0 compared to $168.6 million in the same quarter of 2009 as the Company experienced volume increases in the Supply Technologies and Aluminum Products segments. Supply Technologies sales increased 26% primarily due to volume increases in the truck, power sports, semi-conductor, HVAC, agricultural and construction equipment and industrial equipment industries offset by declines in the automotive industry. In addition, there were $4.4 million of sales resulting from the acquisition of the ACS business. Aluminum Products sales increased 13% as auto industry sales volumes increased along with additional sales from new contracts. Manufactured Products sales increased 17% resulting from higher sales in the capital equipment and rubber products business units offset by lower sales in the forged and machined products business unit because of volume declines in the rail industry.

Interest expense increased $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009, primarily due to lower average outstanding borrowings in 2010 offset by a higher average borrowing rate during the third quarter of 2010. The decrease in average borrowings in the third quarter of 2010 resulted primarily from earnings and a reduction in working capital. The higher average borrowing rate in the third quarter of 2010 was due primarily to increased interest rates under our amended revolving credit facility compared to the same period in 2009.
 
Income Tax:
 
The provision for income taxes was $(1.2) million in the third quarter of 2010, a (24)% effective income tax rate, compared to income taxes of $0.3 million provided in the corresponding quarter of 2009, a (10)% effective income tax rate. We estimate that the effective tax rate for full-year 2010 will be approximately 18%, excluding the third quarter of 2010 valuation allowance reversal.
 
Liquidity and Sources of Capital
 
Our liquidity needs are primarily for working capital and capital expenditures. Our primary sources of liquidity have been funds provided by operations and funds available from existing bank credit arrangements and the sale of our senior subordinated notes. In 2003, we entered into a revolving credit facility with a group of banks which, as subsequently amended, matures at April 30, 2014 and provides for availability of up to $170 million subject to an asset-based formula. We have the option to increase the availability under the revolving loan portion of the credit facility by $25 million. The revolving credit facility is secured by substantially all our assets in the United States and Canada. Borrowings from this revolving credit facility will be used for general corporate purposes. On March 8, 2010 and subsequently on August 31, 2010, the revolving credit facility was amended and restated to, among other things, extend its maturity date to April 30, 2014, reduce the loan commitment from $270.0 million to $210.0 million, which amount includes a term loan A for $28.0 million ($26.6 million outstanding at September, 2010) that is secured by real estate and machinery and equipment and an unsecured term loan B for $12.0 million ($9.6 million outstanding at September 30, 2010). Amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility may be borrowed at either (i) LIBOR plus 2.25% to 3.25% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate minus .25% to plus .75%, at the Company’s election. The LIBOR-based interest rate is dependent on the Company’s debt service coverage ratio, as defined in the revolving credit facility. Under the revolving credit facility, a detailed borrowing base formula provides borrowing availability to the Company based on percentages of eligible accounts receivable and inventory. Interest on the term loan A is at either (i) LIBOR plus 3.25% to 4.25% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate plus .75% to 1.75%, at the Company’s election. Interest on the term loan B is at either (i) LIBOR plus 5.25% to 6.25% or (ii) the bank’s prime lending rate plus 3.25% to 4.25%, at the Company’s election. The term loan A is amortized based on a ten-year schedule with the balance due at maturity. The term loan B is amortized over a two-year period, plus 50% of debt service coverage excess capped at $3.5 million.
 
As of September 30, 2010, the Company had $128.6 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility, and approximately $50.4 million of unused borrowing availability.
 
Current financial resources (working capital and available bank borrowing arrangements) and anticipated funds from operations are expected to be adequate to meet current cash requirements for at least the next twelve months. The future availability of bank borrowings under the revolving loan portion of the credit facility is based on the Company’s ability to meet a debt service ratio covenant, which could be materially impacted by negative economic trends. Failure to meet the debt service ratio could materially impact the availability and interest rate of future borrowings.
 
The Company may from time to time seek to retire or purchase its outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity securities or in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. It may also repurchase shares of its outstanding common stock. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.
 
At September 30, 2010, the Company’s debt service coverage ratio was 2.1, and, therefore, it was in compliance with the debt service coverage ratio covenant contained in the revolving credit facility. The Company was also in compliance with the other covenants contained in the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2010. The debt service coverage ratio is calculated at the end of each fiscal quarter and is based on the most recently ended four fiscal quarters of consolidated EBITDA minus cash taxes paid, minus unfunded capital expenditures, plus cash


20


Table of Contents

tax refunds to consolidated debt charges which are consolidated cash interest expense plus scheduled principal payments on indebtedness plus scheduled reductions in our term debt as defined in the revolving credit facility. The debt service coverage ratio must be greater than 1.0 and not less than 1.1 for any two consecutive fiscal quarters. While we expect to remain in compliance throughout 2010, declines in demand in the automotive industry and in sales volumes in 2010 could adversely impact our ability to remain in compliance with certain of these financial covenants. Additionally, to the extent our customers are adversely affected by declines in demand in the automotive industry or the economy in general, they may not be able to pay their accounts payable to us on a timely basis or at all, which would make the accounts receivable ineligible for purposes of the revolving credit facility and could reduce our borrowing base and our ability to borrow under such facility.
 
The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.26 at September 30, 2010 versus 2.75 at December 31, 2009. Working capital decreased by $3.9 million to $218.8 million at September 30, 2010 from $222.7 million at December 31, 2009. Accounts receivable increased $32.4 million to $137.0 million at September 30, 2010 from $104.6 million in 2009 primarily resulting from the acquisitions in 2010 and sales volume increases. Inventory increased by $10.9 million at September 30, 2010 to $193.0 million from $182.1 million at December 31, 2009 primarily resulting from the two acquisitions in 2010 and planned reductions and sales volumes increases. Accrued expenses increased by $22.8 million to $61.9 million at September 30, 2010 from $39.1 at December 31, 2009 primarily resulting from increases in advance billings, the accrual for income taxes, accrual for salaries and wages because of the timing of pay dates and bonus accrual increases and accounts payable increased $22.4 million to $97.5 million at September 30, 2010 from $75.1 million at December 31, 2009.
 
During the first nine months of 2010, the Company provided $49.7 million from operating activities compared to $29.2 million in the same period of 2009. The increase in the operating cash provision of $20.5 million was primarily the result of net income of $11.7 million in the first nine months of 2010 compared to a net loss of $5.4 million in the first nine months of 2009, (a change of $17.1 million), a decrease in operating assets and liabilities of $23.4 million in the first nine months of 2010 compared to a decrease of $23.7 million in the first nine months of 2009 offset by a reduction of depreciation and amortization expense of $2.0 million in the first nine months of 2010 compared to the first nine months of 2009. In the first nine months of 2010, the Company used cash of $2.2 million for capital expenditures and made an acquisition for $16.0 million in cash. These activities, plus cash interest and tax payments of $14.4 million, a net reduction in borrowings of $13.8 million, purchase of treasury stock of $1.0 million and debt issue costs of $4.1 million resulted in an increase in cash of $12.7 million in the first nine months of 2010.
 
We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financing or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons. There are occasions whereupon we enter into forward contracts on foreign currencies, primarily the euro and British Pound Sterling, purely for the purpose of hedging exposure to changes in the value of accounts receivable in those currencies against the U.S. dollar. At September 30, 2010, none were outstanding. We currently have no other derivative instruments.
 
Seasonality; Variability of Operating Results
 
Our results of operations are typically stronger in the first six months than the last six months of each calendar year due to plant maintenance scheduled in the third quarter to coincide with customer plant shutdowns and due to holidays in the fourth quarter.
 
The timing of orders placed by our customers has varied with, among other factors, orders for customers’ finished goods, customer production schedules, competitive conditions and general economic conditions. The variability of the level and timing of orders has, from time to time, resulted in significant periodic and quarterly fluctuations in the operations of our business units. Such variability is particularly evident at the capital equipment businesses, included in the Manufactured Products segment, which typically ship a few large systems per year.

actual results, performance and achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These uncertainties and other factors include such things as: general business conditions and competitive factors, including pricing pressures and product innovation; demand for our products and services; raw material availability and pricing; changes in our relationships with customers and suppliers; the financial condition of our customers, including the impact of any bankruptcies; our ability to successfully integrate recent and future acquisitions into existing operations; changes in general domestic economic conditions such as inflation rates, interest rates, and tax rates; adverse impacts to us, our suppliers and customers from acts of terrorism or hostilities; our ability to meet various covenants, including financial covenants, contained in our revolving credit agreement and the indenture governing our senior subordinated notes; increasingly stringent domestic and foreign governmental regulations, including those affecting the environment; inherent uncertainties involved in assessing our potential liability for environmental remediation-related activities; the outcome of pending and future litigation and other claims; dependence on the automotive and heavy-duty truck industries, which are highly cyclical; dependence on key management; and dependence on information systems. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a forward-looking statement herein should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved.
 
Review By Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements at September 30, 2010, and for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, have been reviewed, prior to filing, by Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm, and their report is included herein.
 
Item 3.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
 
We are exposed to market risk including changes in interest rates. We are subject to interest rate risk on borrowings under our floating rate revolving credit agreement, which consisted of borrowings of $128.6 million at September 30, 2010. A 100 basis point increase in the interest rate would have resulted in an increase in interest expense of approximately $1.0 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010.
 
Our foreign subsidiaries generally conduct business in local currencies. During the first nine months of 2010, we recorded an unfavorable foreign currency translation adjustment of $.7 million related to net assets located outside the United States. This foreign currency translation adjustment resulted primarily from the weakening of the U.S. dollar. Our foreign operations are also subject to other customary risks of operating in a global environment, such as unstable political situations, the effect of local laws and taxes, tariff increases and regulations and requirements for export licenses, the potential imposition of trade or foreign exchange restrictions and transportation delays.
 
The Company periodically enters into forward contracts on foreign currencies, primarily the euro and the British Pound Sterling, purely for the purpose of hedging exposure to changes in the value of accounts receivable in those currencies against the U.S. dollar. The Company currently uses no other derivative instruments. At September 30, 2010, there were no such currency hedge contracts outstanding.
 
Item 4.   Controls and Procedures
 
Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
 
Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the third quarter of 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
 
OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.   Legal Proceedings
 
We are subject to various pending and threatened lawsuits in which claims for monetary damages are asserted in the ordinary course of business. While any litigation involves an element of uncertainty, in the opinion of management, liabilities, if any, arising from currently pending or threatened litigation are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.
 
At September 30, 2010, we were a co-defendant in approximately 300 cases asserting claims on behalf of approximately 1,240 plaintiffs alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. These asbestos cases generally relate to production and sale of asbestos-containing products and allege various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability and seek compensatory and, in some cases, punitive damages.
 
In every asbestos case in which we are named as a party, the complaints are filed against multiple named defendants. In substantially all of the asbestos cases, the plaintiffs either claim damages in excess of a specified amount, typically a minimum amount sufficient to establish jurisdiction of the court in which the case was filed (jurisdictional minimums generally range from $25,000 to $75,000), or do not specify the monetary damages sought. To the extent that any specific amount of damages is sought, the amount applies to claims against all named defendants.
 
There are only five asbestos cases, involving 25 plaintiffs, that plead specified damages. In each of the five cases, the plaintiff is seeking compensatory and punitive damages based on a variety of potentially alternative causes of action. In three cases, the plaintiff has alleged compensatory damages in the amount of $3.0 million for four separate causes of action and $1.0 million for another cause of action and punitive damages in the amount of $10.0 million. In the fourth case, the plaintiff has alleged against each named defendant, compensatory and punitive damages each in the amount of $10.0 million for seven separate causes of action. In the fifth case, the plaintiff has alleged compensatory damages in the amount of $20.0 million for three separate causes of action and $5.0 million for another cause of action and punitive damages in the amount of $20.0 million.
 
Historically, we have been dismissed from asbestos cases on the basis that the plaintiff incorrectly sued one of our subsidiaries or because the plaintiff failed to identify any asbestos-containing product manufactured or sold by us or our subsidiaries. We intend to vigorously defend these asbestos cases, and believe we will continue to be successful in being dismissed from such cases. However, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings due to the unpredictable nature of personal injury litigation. Despite this uncertainty, and although our results of operations and cash flows for a particular period could be adversely affected by asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings, management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. Among the factors management considered in reaching this conclusion were: (a) our historical success in being dismissed from these types of lawsuits on the bases mentioned above; (b) many cases have been improperly filed against one of our subsidiaries; (c) in many cases, the plaintiffs have been unable to establish any causal relationship to us or our products or premises; (d) in many cases, the plaintiffs have been unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any identifiable injury or compensable loss at all, that any injuries that they have incurred did in fact result from alleged exposure to asbestos; and (e) the complaints assert claims against multiple defendants and, in most cases, the damages alleged are not attributed to individual defendants. Additionally, we do not believe that the amounts claimed in any of the asbestos cases are meaningful indicators of our potential exposure because the amounts claimed typically bear no relation to the extent of the plaintiff’s injury, if any.
 
Our cost of defending these lawsuits has not been material to date and, based upon available information, our management does not expect its future costs for asbestos-related lawsuits to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity or financial position.
