PART I

ITEM 1.BUSINESS
As used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “EnPro” and “Company” mean EnPro Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (unless the context indicates another meaning). The term “common stock” means the common stock of EnPro Industries, Inc., par value $0.01 per share.
Background
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina on January 11, 2002, as a wholly owned subsidiary of Goodrich Corporation (“Goodrich”). The incorporation was in anticipation of Goodrich’s announced distribution of its Engineered Industrial Products segment to existing Goodrich shareholders. The distribution took place on May 31, 2002.
Today, we are a leader in designing, developing, manufacturing, servicing, and marketing proprietary engineered industrial products and serve a wide variety of customers in varied industries around the world. Over the past year and a half, we have executed several strategic initiatives to change the portfolio of businesses that we operate to focus on materials science-based businesses with leading technologies, compelling margins, strong cash flow, and high levels of recurring revenue that serve markets with favorable secular tailwinds. These initiatives, described in “Acquisitions” and “Dispositions” below, have increased our ability to provide solutions to the semiconductor, life sciences, and other technology industries. As of December 31, 2020, our continuing operations had 45 primary manufacturing and service facilities located in 13 countries, including the United States.
Our sales from continuing operations by geographic region in 2020, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

the Lunar® manufacturing facility located in Shanghai, China closed in the fourth quarter of 2020 for $0.9 million, resulting in no gain or loss. Prior to closing on the sale of the business, we determined the assets to be impaired and recorded a $2.1 million impairment charge, of which $1.6 million was related to impairment of long-lived assets and $0.5 million related to the impairment of inventory. The impairment of long-lived assets was recorded in other operating expense and the impairment of inventory was recorded in cost of sales on our consolidated statement of operations. Total net loss related to the exit of the Lunar® air disc brake business was $1.9 million.
On December 12, 2019, certain of our subsidiaries entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with Arcline FM Holdings, LLC (“Arcline FM Holdings”), an affiliate of Arcline Investment Management, LP, pursuant to which we sold all of the outstanding equity interests in our indirect subsidiary, Fairbanks Morse, LLC (“Fairbanks Morse”), to Arcline FM Holdings and caused one of our subsidiaries to sell certain related Canadian assets to an affiliate of Arcline FM Holdings, for an aggregate sales price of $450 million. This divestiture transaction was completed on January 21, 2020. Fairbanks Morse manufactured heavy-duty, medium-speed reciprocating engines used primarily in marine and power generation applications and comprised our entire Power Systems segment. In light of the entry into the definitive agreement in December 2019 to divest Fairbanks Morse, we classified the Power Systems segment as a discontinued operation for the fourth quarter and full year 2019, and all prior quarterly and annual financial results of EnPro have been recast to reflect the Power Systems segment as a discontinued operation. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts provided in Part I pertain to continuing operations only (see Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K for information on discontinued operations and the disposition of Fairbanks Morse). We recorded a pretax gain of $274.3 million in the first quarter of 2020 as a result of this transaction.

In September 2019, we sold certain assets and certain liabilities of our brake products business unit located in Rome, Georgia, which was included in our Sealing Technologies segment. The aggregate sales price for the transaction was $6.8 million, of which we received $3.6 million in September 2019 at the closing of the sale of the business and $0.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 that was applied to the sale of the building, which closed in February 2020. On the closing of the sale of the building, we received $2.9 million and received the balance of $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2020.
In the second quarter of 2018, we commenced the exit from our industrial gas turbine business in the Sealing Technologies segment located in Oxford, Massachusetts ("Technetics Group Oxford"). Technetics Group Oxford was a supplier of components for industrial gas turbines. We sold the land and building at this location in June 2018, resulting in a realized gain of $21.7 million.  We incurred severance expenses of $3.8 million, net tangible asset write downs of $1.8 million, write-offs of customer relationship intangible assets associated with the business of $19.1 million, and other costs related to the restructuring of $0.5 million.  The exit resulted in total net restructuring costs of $3.5 million.
After attempts to sell the ATDynamics business during the fourth quarter of 2019, in January 2020, we decided to shut down the ATDynamics business, which manufactured aerodynamic products for the commercial trucking industry and was included in the Stemco division of our Sealing Technologies segment. As a result of the unsuccessful sales process, we reviewed the carrying amounts of long-lived assets at December 31, 2019 and determined the carrying amounts were not recoverable. As a result of this assessment, we recorded a $2.6 million impairment loss in the fourth quarter of 2019. In connection with the decision to shut down the business, we decided to not complete and sell the inventory we had on hand and recognized an additional $1.5 million inventory impairment.

Research and Development
The goal of our research and development effort is to strengthen our product portfolios for traditional markets while simultaneously creating distinctive and breakthrough products and services. We utilize a process to move product and service innovations from concept to commercialization, and to identify, analyze, develop and implement new product concepts and opportunities aimed at business growth.
We employ scientists, engineers and technicians throughout our operations to develop, design and test new and improved products. We work closely with our customers to identify issues and develop technical solutions. The majority of our research and development spending typically is directed toward the development of new sealing products for the most demanding environments, the development of technology to support the cleaning and refurbishment of process critical semiconductor manufacturing equipment components, and the development of bearing products and materials with increased load carrying capability and superior friction and wear.
Backlog
At December 31, 2020, we had a backlog of orders of continuing operations valued at $212.5 million compared with $190.7 million at December 31, 2019. Approximately 6.1% of the backlog is expected to be filled beyond 2021. Backlog represents orders on hand we believe to be firm. However, there is no certainty the backlog orders will result in actual sales at the times or in the amounts ordered. Because of our short lead times and some seasonality, for most of our business backlog is not a meaningful indicator of future performance.
Quality Assurance
We believe the quality of our products and services is among the most important factors in developing and maintaining strong, long-term relationships with our customers. In order to meet the exacting requirements of our customers, we maintain stringent standards of quality control. We routinely employ in-process inspection by using testing equipment as a process aid during all stages of development, design and production to ensure product quality and reliability. These include state-of-the-art CAD/CAM equipment, statistical process control systems, laser tracking devices, failure mode and effect analysis, and coordinate measuring machines. We are able to extract numerical quality control data as a statistical measurement of the quality of the parts being manufactured from our Computer Numerical Control ("CNC") machinery. In addition, we perform quality control tests on parts that we outsource. As a result, we are able to significantly reduce the number of defective parts and therefore improve efficiency, quality and reliability.
As of December 31, 2020, 37 of our manufacturing and service facilities were ISO 9000, QS 9000 and/or TS 16949 certified. Sixteen of our facilities are ISO 14001 certified. OEMs are increasingly requiring these standards in lieu of individual certification procedures and as a condition of awarding business.
Patents, Trademarks and Other Intellectual Property
We maintain a number of patents and trademarks issued by the U.S. and other countries relating to the name and design of our products and have granted licenses to some of these patents and trademarks. We routinely evaluate the need to protect new and existing products through the patent and trademark systems in the U.S. and other countries. We also have unpatented proprietary information, consisting of know-how and trade secrets relating to the design, manufacture and operation of our products and their use. Except for proprietary formulations and know-how in our Advanced Surface Technologies segment, we do not consider our business as a whole to be materially dependent on any particular patent, patent right, trademark, trade secret or license granted or group of related patents, patent rights, trademarks, trade secrets or licenses granted.
In general, we are the owner of the rights to the products that we manufacture and sell. However, we also license certain intellectual property from various entities. These licenses are subject to renewal and it is possible we may not successfully
7


renegotiate these licenses or they could be terminated in the event of a material breach. If this were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected.

Human Capital
As of December 31, 2020, we had approximately 4,400 employees, of which approximately 55% are in North America, 28% in Europe, 16% in Asia Pacific, and 1% in South America.
Approximately 14% of our employees are members of trade unions. Union agreements relate, among other things, to wages, hours, and conditions of employment.
We strive to create an environment where all employees can flourish. We are a dual bottom line company where human development is viewed as being equally important to financial results. This "Dual Bottom Line" philosophy is the backbone from which we operate. We believe human development leads to financial performance and the pursuit of financial performance results in human development. Our core values of Safety, Excellence and Respect drive our focus on the way we do business and care for our people.
Our culture is focused around four primary intentions: Deliberately Dual Bottom Line, Deliberately Doubling, Deliberately Developmental and Deliberately Diverse. “Deliberately” underscores the importance and focus we place on these intentions as our company evolves. As noted above, "Deliberately Dual Bottom Line" represents our commitment to helping people learn to develop themselves as a co-equal goal to financial performance. “Deliberately Doubling” emphasizes our intent to grow EnPro through innovative approaches that lead to significant customer benefits and positive returns for EnPro. “Deliberately Developmental” describes our focus on using our daily work to help our employees develop themselves and achieve their career goals. We foster a culture of learning and development because we believe that continuously improving ourselves will lead to personal and company success. Finally, "Deliberately Diverse" underscores our belief that a diverse workforce is critical to our success and we have increased our focus on growing an inclusive workplace.
Our senior leadership is committed to an inclusive and diverse workforce, which is exemplified by our CEO’s direct involvement in many of our key Diversity and Inclusion ("D&I") initiatives. In 2020, our senior leadership team delivered bias training to our global employee population and our CEO leads several of our platforms that foster an inclusive workplace. Our talent acquisition practices further support our commitment to a diverse workforce. We require diverse candidate slates as well as diverse interview panels and have implemented tools and structures to reduce bias during the interview and selection process. As a result, our percentage of female promotions in the U.S. has increased by 10% since January 2019. Female and minority representation among our senior leadership team has increased by 5% since December 2019. During calendar 2020, we hosted 32 weekly “Courageous Conversations/Mid-Week Mindfulness Sessions”, which are open to all employees globally. We host quarterly calls for our employee resource groups, such as Women@EnPro, Women in Engineering, LGBTQ+ and community of color employees. These platforms further create and promote spaces at EnPro that encourage our colleagues to bring their whole selves to work.
As part of our commitment to our people, we provide a comprehensive compensation and benefits program that is designed to attract and retain employees. Our programs are designed to meet the changing needs of our employees and their families. In the U.S., this includes a company-wide minimum wage of $15 per hour, a 401k plan with company match, an award-winning wellbeing program, flexible vacation and time off policies that include a new “take what you need” program for salaried employees, enhanced employee assistance programs, paid family leave, tuition assistance, and comprehensive healthcare benefits that includes medical, prescription drug, dental, life, disability, health savings accounts, flexible spending accounts, critical illness, and accidental, death and dismemberment coverages.
We have demonstrated extreme care and compassion for our employees during the COVID-19 crisis. We delivered programs that cared for our employee’s physical needs, while also implementing several initiatives that provided emotional connection, and fostered psychological safety during these challenging times. The positive impact of our care, compassion and flexible programs is demonstrated by our employee retention rates. In particular, the retention rate of women (in the United States) at EnPro has remained the same over the past year, which is a remarkable achievement for a year in which hundreds of thousands of women have left the U.S. workforce, disproportionately to men, due to impacts of the pandemic.
In connection with our commitment to promoting diversity and improving the communities where our employees live and work, in 2020, we officially launched the EnPro Foundation to support charitable, educational, and other organizations working to advance education, equality, diversity, and the preservation of human dignity. We have initially funded the foundation for $1 million.
Safety remains one of our three core values and we have worked hard to develop a world-class safety program and culture. Our commitment to safety has resulted in our being the only public company to have been recognized on three separate
8


occasions by EHS Today as “America’s Safest Company”. 2020 was the safest year in the history of our company as measured by medical treatment case rates.

Risks Related to COVID 19

COVID-19 has, and is expected to continue to, adversely affect our business and results of operations
The impact of COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected our business and financial results for 2020, and we expect that it will negatively impact our business and financial results into 2021 and possibly in subsequent years depending on the length of the pandemic and its economic repercussions. As COVID-19 has spread, it has significantly impacted the health and economic environment around the world. Our customers are principally global manufacturers and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on general economic conditions, and more deleterious effects on certain markets, such as oil and gas, aerospace, and automotive, are having and may continue to have negative implications on demand for their goods and consequently on their demand for our products and services. Certain of our businesses are experiencing reduced levels compared to prior-year level, expectations of further reductions in sales levels could result in asset impairment charges. Because of uncertainties with respect to the severity and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak, the duration and terms of related governmental orders restricting activities, and the timing and pace of any economic recovery as COVID-19 impacts ultimately abate, we cannot predict with precision the extent and duration of any future decreased demand for our products and services and the consequent impact on our business and financial results.
In addition, our facilities and the facilities of our customers and suppliers may be prevented from conducting business activities for an indefinite period of time, and our customers may be prevented from purchasing our products, and we may be unable to purchase necessary materials from vendors, due to shutdowns, shelter-in-place orders, import restrictions or other preventative measures that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities. Certain of our facilities have been required to temporarily close in light of governmental orders restricting business activities, and we temporarily closed certain facilities to facilitate disinfection procedures and the implementation of social distancing protocols, as well as in response to employee absences driven by COVID-19 concerns. Although most of our operations have been treated as “essential” operations under applicable government orders restricting business activities that have been issued to date, and accordingly have been permitted to continue to operate, it is possible that they may not continue to be so treated under future government orders, or, even if so treated, site-specific health and safety concerns might otherwise require certain of our operations to be halted for some period of time. The operations of all of our facilities have been affected in terms of employee protection measures, including social distancing and personal protection equipment measures. These measures will continue to affect the efficiency of our operations for the foreseeable future.
In 2020, approximately 48% of our revenues were generated outside the United States. We operate businesses with manufacturing and service facilities around the world. Accordingly, to the extent that general economic conditions in the United States may improve over time, our results of operations may continue to be adversely affected in other areas of the world that may continue to experience COVID-19 outbreaks, including as a result of delays in the administration of vaccines, and that remain subject to governmental or other health-related restrictions affecting business activities that impact the demand for our products and services or prevent us from resuming full operations in those jurisdictions.
Risks Related to Our Business
Our business and some of the markets we serve are cyclical and distressed market conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business.
The markets in which we sell our products and services, particularly chemical companies, petroleum refineries, heavy-duty trucking, semiconductor manufacturing, capital equipment and the automotive industry, are, to varying degrees, cyclical and have historically experienced periodic downturns. Prior downturns have been characterized by diminished product demand, excess manufacturing capacity and subsequent erosion of average selling prices in these markets resulting in negative effects on
9


our net sales and results of operations. A prolonged and severe downward cycle in our markets could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We face intense competition that could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We encounter intense competition in almost all areas of our businesses. Customers for many of our products and services are attempting to reduce the number of vendors from which they purchase. To remain competitive, we need to invest continuously in manufacturing, marketing, customer service and support and our distribution networks. We also need to develop new products and services to continue to meet the needs and desires of our customers. We may not have sufficient resources to continue to make such investments or maintain our competitive position. Additionally, some of our competitors are larger than we are and have substantially greater financial resources than we do. As a result, they may be better able to withstand the effects of periodic economic downturns. Certain of our products and services may also experience transformation from unique branded products to undifferentiated price sensitive products and services. This commoditization may be accelerated by low-cost foreign competition. Changes in the replacement cycle of certain of our products and services, including because of improved product and service quality or improved maintenance, may affect aftermarket demand for such products and services. Initiatives designed to distinguish our products and services through superior service, continuous improvement, innovation, customer relationships, technology, new product acquisitions, bundling with key services, long-term contracts or market focus may not be effective. Pricing and other competitive pressures could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
If we fail to retain the independent agents and distributors upon whom we rely to market our products, we may be unable to effectively market our products and our revenue and profitability may decline.
The marketing success of many of our businesses in the U.S. and abroad depends largely upon our independent agents’ and distributors’ sales and service expertise and relationships with customers in our markets. Many of these agents have developed strong ties to existing and potential customers because of their detailed knowledge of our products. A loss of a significant number of these agents or distributors, or of a particular agent or distributor in a key market or with key customer relationships, could significantly inhibit our ability to effectively market our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Increased costs for raw materials, the termination of existing supply arrangements or other disruptions of our supply chain could have a material adverse effect on our business.
The prices for some of the raw materials we purchase increased in 2020. In addition to organic changes in the prices of raw materials, the prices of some of our raw materials may increase due to the imposition (or announcement of the intended imposition) of new or increased tariffs or changes in trade laws. While we have been successful in passing along some of these higher costs, there can be no assurance we will be able to continue doing so without losing customers. Similarly, the loss of a key supplier, the unavailability of a key raw material, or other disruptions of our supply chain could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights and knowledge relating to our products and services, our business and prospects may be negatively impacted.
We believe that proprietary products, processes, and technology are important to our success. If we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property and know-how, our business and prospects could be negatively impacted. Our efforts to protect our intellectual property through patents, trademarks, service marks, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, confidentiality, non-compete and nondisclosure agreements and other measures may not be adequate to protect our proprietary rights. Patents issued to third parties, whether before or after the issue date of our patents, could render our intellectual property less valuable. Questions as to whether our competitors’ products or services infringe our intellectual property rights or whether our products and services infringe our competitors’ intellectual property rights may be disputed. In addition, intellectual property rights may be unavailable, limited or difficult to enforce in some jurisdictions, which could make it easier for competitors to capture market share in those jurisdictions.
Our competitors may capture market share from us by selling products that claim to mirror the capabilities of our products or technology. Without sufficient protection nationally and internationally for our intellectual property, our competitiveness worldwide could be impaired, which would negatively impact our growth and future revenue. As a result, we may be required to spend significant resources to monitor and enforce our intellectual property rights.
10


Failure to maintain or renew licenses to certain intellectual property rights could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
In general, we are the owner of the rights to the products and services that we manufacture and provide. However, we also license certain intellectual property from various entities. These licenses are subject to renewal and it is possible we may not successfully renegotiate these licenses or they could be terminated in the event of a material breach. If this were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows could be adversely affected. 
Our business with the U.S. government is subject to government contracting risks.
Our business with government agencies, including sales to prime contractors that supply these agencies, is subject to government contracting risks. U.S. government contracts are subject to termination by the government, either for the convenience of the government or for default as a result of our failure to perform under the applicable contract. If terminated by the government as a result of our default, we could be liable for additional costs the government incurs in acquiring undelivered goods or services from another source and any other damages it suffers. In addition, if we or one of our divisions were charged with wrongdoing with respect to a U.S. government contract, the U.S. government could suspend us from bidding on or receiving awards of new government contracts pending the completion of legal proceedings. If convicted or found liable, the U.S. government could subject us to fines, penalties, repayments and treble and other damages, and/or bar us from bidding on or receiving new awards of U.S. government contracts and void any contracts found to be tainted by fraud. The U.S. government also reserves the right to debar a contractor from receiving new government contracts for fraudulent, criminal or other seriously improper conduct.
Our products and services are often used in critical applications, which could expose us to potentially significant product liability, warranty and other claims and recalls. Our insurance coverage may be inadequate to cover all of our significant risks or our insurers may deny coverage of material losses we incur, which could adversely affect our profitability and overall financial condition.
Our products and services are often used in critical applications in demanding environments, including in the nuclear, oil and gas, automotive, aerospace and pharmaceutical industries. Accordingly, product and service failures can have significant consequences and could result in significant product liability, warranty and other claims against us, regardless of whether our products and services caused the incident that is the subject of the claim, and we may have obligations to participate in the recall of products in which our products are components, if any of the components or services we supply prove to be defective. We endeavor to identify and obtain in established markets insurance agreements to cover certain significant risks and liabilities, though insurance against some of the risks inherent in our operations (such as insurance covering down-stream customer product recalls) is either unavailable or available only at rates or on terms that we consider excessive. Depending on competitive conditions and other factors, we endeavor to obtain contractual protection against uninsured risks from our customers, including limitations on liability and indemnification. In some cases, we are unable to obtain such contractual protections, and when we do, such contractual protection may not be as broad as we desire, may not be supported by adequate insurance maintained by the customer, or may not be fully enforceable in the jurisdictions in which our customers are located. Such insurance or contractual protection may not be sufficient or effective under all circumstances or against all hazards to which we may be subject. A successful claim or product recall for which we are not insured or for which we are underinsured could have a material adverse effect on us. Additionally, disputes with insurance carriers over coverage may affect the timing of cash flows and, if litigation with the carrier becomes necessary, an outcome unfavorable to us may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Our business may be adversely affected by information technology disruptions.
Our business may be impacted by information technology disruptions, including information technology attacks. Cybersecurity attacks, in particular, are evolving and include, but are not limited to, malicious software, attempts to gain unauthorized access to data or corporate funds, and other electronic security breaches that could lead to disruptions in systems, unauthorized release of confidential or otherwise protected information and corruption of data (our own or that of third parties). We have been subject to these attacks, including attempts to redirect otherwise valid payments to fraudulent accounts, and although we believe that we have adopted appropriate measures and procedures to mitigate potential risks to our systems from information technology-related disruptions, it is possible that a cybersecurity attack could be successful in breaching the measures and procedures designed to protect our systems. In such an event, we could potentially be subject to production downtimes, operational delays, other detrimental impacts on our operations or ability to provide products and services to our customers, the compromising of confidential or otherwise protected information, misappropriation, destruction or corruption of data, security breaches, misappropriation of corporate funds, other manipulation or improper use of our systems or networks, financial losses from remedial actions, loss of business or potential liability, and/or damage to our reputation, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Many of the products that we manufacture are sold to industries and used in applications that are susceptible to challenges from trends to address climate change or other trends favoring “clean” energy solutions.
International trends favoring “clean” energy solutions to address climate change, sustainability and other environmental concerns may present challenges to a number of industries that we supply. These trends include increasing market replacement of vehicles powered by internal-combustion engines with electric-powered vehicles and increasing implementation of solar and wind energy solutions. In some jurisdictions, these trends have been spurred by applicable government regulation (including tax incentives), and similar or additional regulations may be adopted in the future in other jurisdictions. Furthermore, technological advances may accelerate the pace of these trends. Many of the products that we manufacture are used by industries and in applications that may face challenges from, and may be adversely affected by, these trends and, as a result, the demand for certain of our current products could be similarly adversely affected by these trends. Accordingly, we are subject to risks and uncertainties with respect to these trends. While we anticipate considering these trends in the continued development and implementation of our long-term strategy, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected by these trends if they continue or accelerate at a pace that we do not anticipate.
Our failure to develop new or improved products and services may result in a significant competitive disadvantage.
In order to maintain our market positions and margins, we need to continually develop and introduce high-quality, technologically advanced and cost-effective products and services on a timely basis, in many cases in multiple jurisdictions around the world. The failure to do so could result in a significant competitive disadvantage that could materially adversely affect our results of operations.

The loss of key personnel and an inability to attract and retain qualified employees could have a material adverse effect on our operations.
We are dependent on the continued services of our leadership team. The loss of these personnel without adequate replacement could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Additionally, we need qualified managers and skilled employees with technical and industry experience in many locations in order to operate our business successfully. From time to time, there may be a shortage of skilled labor, which may make it more difficult and expensive for us to attract and retain qualified employees. If we were unable to attract and retain sufficient numbers of qualified individuals or our costs to do so were to increase significantly, our operations could be materially adversely affected.
We identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting and there can be no assurance that another material weakness will not be identified in the future.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. During 2019, management identified deficiencies in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that existed on December 31, 2018, and these deficiencies constituted a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a result of this material weakness, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013 version)” and accordingly that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) were not effective. This material weakness resulted in a revision to our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, though the errors corrected in such revision were not material, and were related solely to the determination of the provision for income taxes. We have been actively engaged in developing and implementing a remediation plan designed to address the deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting that led to this material weakness, and measures necessary to fully remediate the identified deficiencies were in place as of December 31, 2020. Although we have remediated these deficiencies, we cannot assure you that other material weaknesses will not occur in the future. Ineffective internal control over financial reporting could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the value of our common stock.
Our business could be materially adversely affected by numerous other risks, including rising healthcare costs, changes in environmental laws and other unforeseen business interruptions.
Our business may be negatively impacted by numerous other risks. For example, medical and other healthcare costs may continue to grow faster than general inflation or employees may receive more or higher cost services in future periods. Initiatives to address these costs, such as consumer driven health plan packages, may not successfully reduce these expenses to
12


the extent expected or required. Failure to offer competitive employee benefits may result in our inability to recruit or maintain key employees. Other risks to our business include potential changes in environmental rules or regulations, which could negatively impact our manufacturing processes, or changes to the magnitude of costs at existing environmental sites. Use of certain chemicals and other substances could become restricted or such changes may otherwise require us to incur additional costs which could reduce our profitability and impair our ability to offer competitively priced products. Additional risks to our business include global or local events which could significantly disrupt our operations. Terrorist attacks, natural disasters, political insurgencies, pandemics and electrical grid disruptions and outages are some of the unforeseen risks that could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Risks Related to Our M&A Activities
We have made and expect to continue to make acquisitions, which could involve certain risks and uncertainties.
We expect to continue to make acquisitions in the future. Acquisitions involve numerous inherent challenges, such as properly evaluating acquisition opportunities, properly evaluating risks and other diligence matters, ensuring adequate capital availability and balancing other resource constraints. There are risks and uncertainties related to acquisitions, including: difficulties integrating acquired technology, operations, personnel and financial and other systems; unrealized sales expectations from the acquired business; unrealized synergies and cost savings; unknown or underestimated liabilities; diversion of management attention from running our existing businesses and potential loss of key management employees or customers of the acquired business. In addition, internal controls over financial reporting of acquired companies may not be up to required U.S. public company standards. Our integration activities may place substantial demands on our management, operational resources and financial and internal control systems. Customer dissatisfaction or performance problems with an acquired business, technology, service or product could also have a material adverse effect on our reputation and business.
Risks Related to Our Prior Ownership of Disposed Businesses
We have exposure to some contingent liabilities relating to previously owned businesses, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in any fiscal period.
We have contingent liabilities related to discontinued operations, such as Fairbanks Morse, and previously owned businesses of our predecessors, including environmental liabilities and liabilities for certain products and other matters. In some instances we have indemnified others against those liabilities, and in other instances we have received indemnities from third parties against those liabilities. For example, in 2014 when our then Fairbanks Morse division and a consortium partner entered into a multi-year arrangement with Electricite de France ("EDF") to supply opposed-piston, diesel engine generator set to EDF for emergency backup power at 20 of EDF's nuclear power plants in France, EnPro Industries, Inc. guaranteed the performance of Fairbanks Morse's obligations under agreements with our consortium partner, which guarantee continues to be in place following our sale of Fairbanks Morse, though both Fairbanks Morse and the purchaser of Fairbanks Morse have agreed to indemnify us for any payments we are required to make pursuant to such guarantee.
Claims could arise relating to products, facilities or other matters related to our discontinued operations. Some of these claims could seek substantial monetary payments. For example, EnPro has entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Interim Removal Action with the Environmental Protection Agency for the assessment and potential remediation of eight surface uranium mines in Arizona on the basis that our EnPro Holdings subsidiary, through which we hold most of our operating subsidiaries, was a potentially responsible party under federal environmental laws as the successor to a former operator in the 1950s of those mines. Similarly, in connection with a facility located in Water Valley, Mississippi, which was divested in 1996 and has trichloroethylene soil and groundwater contamination, EnPro has entered into an Agreed Order with the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality pursuant to the requirements of which EnPro has developed and is implementing a corrective action work plan addressing both the sources of contamination at the facility and areas where the contamination has migrated, which include areas with residential homes and commercial and local government facilities. Further, we could potentially be liable with respect to firearms manufactured prior to March 1990 by Colt Firearms, a former operation of a corporate predecessor of EnPro Holdings, and electrical transformers manufactured prior to May 1994 by Central Moloney, another former operation of that corporate predecessor.
We have established reserves related to some of these liabilities based upon our best estimates in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. However, if our insurance coverage is depleted or our reserves are not adequate, environmental and other liabilities relating to discontinued operations could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
13


Risks Related to Our International Operations
We conduct a significant amount of our sales and service activities outside of the U.S., which subjects us to additional business risks, including foreign exchange risks, that may cause our profitability to decline.
Because we sell our products and provide services in a number of foreign countries, we are subject to risks associated with doing business internationally. In 2020, we derived approximately 48% of our net sales from sales of our products and services outside of the U.S. Outside the U.S., we operate 26 primary manufacturing and service facilities located in 12 countries. Our sales and operating activities outside of the U.S. are, and will continue to be, subject to a number of risks, including:
unfavorable fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, including long-term contracts denominated in foreign currencies;
adverse changes in foreign tax, legal and regulatory requirements;
difficulty in protecting intellectual property;
government embargoes, tariffs and trade protection measures, such as “anti-dumping” duties applicable to classes of products, and import or export licensing requirements, as well as the imposition of trade sanctions against a class of products imported from or sold and exported to, or the loss of “normal trade relations” status with, countries in which we conduct business, could significantly increase our cost of products or otherwise reduce our sales and harm our business;
cultural norms and expectations that may sometimes be inconsistent with our Code of Conduct and our requirements about the manner in which our employees, agents and distributors conduct business;
differing labor regulations;
political and economic instability, including instabilities associated with European sovereign debt uncertainties and the future continuity of membership of the European Union; and
acts of hostility, terror or war.
Any of these factors, individually or together, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. For example, tapered roller bearings manufactured at our facilities in China that are imported into the United States before re-sale to customers are currently subject to “anti-dumping” duties imposed by the U.S. Department of Commerce based on its periodic review and analysis of our manufacturing and selling activities or the manufacturing and selling activities of larger Chinese suppliers of these products. Such duties, if imposed at higher levels, could materially adversely affect the commercial competitiveness of these products, which could adversely affect the business and results of operations of our Sealing Technologies segment.
Our operations outside the United States require us to comply with a number of United States and international regulations. For example, our operations in countries outside the United States are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”), which prohibits United States companies or their agents and employees from providing anything of value to a foreign official for the purposes of influencing any act or decision of these individuals in their official capacity to help obtain or retain business, direct business to any person or corporate entity, or obtain any unfair advantage. Our activities in countries outside the United States create the risk of unauthorized payments or offers of payments by one of our employees or agents that could be in violation of the FCPA, even though these parties are not always subject to our control. We have internal control policies and procedures and have implemented training and compliance programs with respect to the FCPA. However, we cannot assure that our policies, procedures and programs always will protect us from reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees or agents. In the event that we believe or have reason to believe that our employees or agents have or may have violated applicable anti-corruption laws, including the FCPA, we may be required to investigate or have outside counsel investigate the relevant facts and circumstances. In addition, we are subject to and must comply with all applicable export controls and economic sanctions laws and embargoes imposed by the United States and other various governments. Changes in export control or trade sanctions laws may restrict our business practices, including cessation of business activities in sanctioned countries or with sanctioned entities, and may result in modifications to compliance programs and increase compliance costs, and violations of these laws or regulations may subject us to fines, penalties and other sanctions, such as loss of authorizations needed to conduct aspects of our international business or debarments from export privileges. Violations of the FCPA or export controls or sanctions laws and regulations may result in severe criminal or civil sanctions, and we may be subject to other liabilities, which could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
We intend to continue to pursue international growth opportunities, which could increase our exposure to risks associated with international sales and operations. As we expand our international operations, we may also encounter new risks that could
14


adversely affect our revenues and profitability. For example, as we focus on building our international sales and distribution networks in new geographic regions, we must continue to develop relationships with reputable and qualified local agents, distributors and trading companies. If we are not successful in developing these relationships, we may not be able to increase sales in these regions.
Failure to properly manage these risks could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Risks Related to Our Capital Structure
Our debt agreement and the indenture governing our senior notes impose limitations on our operations, which could impede our ability to respond to market conditions, address unanticipated capital investments and/or pursue business opportunities.
The agreement governing our senior secured revolving credit facility and the indenture governing our senior notes impose limitations on our operations, such as limitations on certain restricted payments, investments, incurrence or repayment of indebtedness, and maintenance of a consolidated net leverage ratio and an interest coverage financial ratio. In addition, the indenture governing our senior notes contains limitations on certain restricted payments, investments and incurrence or repayment of indebtedness. These limitations could impede our ability to respond to market conditions, address unanticipated capital investment needs and/or pursue business opportunities.
We may not have sufficient cash to fund a required repurchase of our senior notes upon a change of control.
Upon a change of control, as defined under the indenture governing our senior notes and includes events that may be beyond our control, the holders of our senior notes have the right to require us to offer to purchase all of our senior notes then outstanding at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. In order to obtain sufficient funds to pay the purchase price of the outstanding notes, we expect that we would have to refinance our senior notes. We cannot assure you that we would be able to refinance our senior notes on reasonable terms, if at all. Our failure to offer to purchase all outstanding notes or to purchase all validly tendered notes would be an event of default under the indenture governing our senior notes. Such an event of default may cause the acceleration of our other debt.
Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock
The market price of our common stock may be volatile.
A relatively small number of shares are normally traded in any one day and higher volumes could have a significant effect on the market price of our common stock. The market price of our common stock could fluctuate significantly for many reasons, including in response to the risks described in this section and elsewhere in this report or for reasons unrelated to our operations, such as reports by industry analysts, investor perceptions or negative announcements by our customers, competitors or suppliers regarding their own performance, as well as industry conditions and general financial, economic and political instability.
Because our quarterly revenues and operating results may vary significantly in future periods, our stock price may fluctuate.
Our revenue and operating results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter. A high proportion of our costs are fixed, due in part to significant selling and manufacturing costs. Small declines in revenues could disproportionately affect operating results in a quarter and the price of our common stock may fall. Other factors that could significantly affect quarterly operating results include, but are not limited to:
demand for our products and services;
the timing and execution of customer contracts;
the timing of sales of our products and services;
contractual penalties for late delivery of long lead time products;
increases in costs due to equipment or labor issues;
changes in foreign currency exchange rates;
changes in applicable tax rates;
an impairment of goodwill or other intangibles at one of our reporting units;
unanticipated delays or problems in introducing new products;
15


announcements by competitors of new products, services or technological innovations;
changes in our pricing policies or the pricing policies of our competitors;
increased expenses, whether related to sales and marketing, raw materials or supplies, product development or administration;
major changes in the level of economic activity in major regions of the world in which we do business;
costs related to possible future acquisitions or divestitures of technologies or businesses;
an increase in the number or magnitude of product liability or environmental claims;
our ability to expand our operations and the amount and timing of expenditures related to expansion of our operations, particularly outside the U.S.; and
economic assumptions and market factors used to determine postretirement benefits and pension liabilities.
Various provisions and laws could delay or prevent a change of control.
The anti-takeover provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws and provisions of North Carolina law could delay or prevent a change of control or may impede the ability of the holders of our common stock to change our management. In particular, our articles of incorporation and bylaws, among other things:
require a supermajority shareholder vote to approve any business combination transaction with an owner of 5% or more of our shares unless the transaction is recommended by disinterested directors;
limit the right of shareholders to remove directors and fill vacancies;
regulate how shareholders may present proposals or nominate directors for election at shareholders’ meetings; and
authorize our board of directors to issue preferred stock in one or more series, without shareholder approval.
Future sales of our common stock in the public market could lower the market price for our common stock.
In the future, we may sell additional shares of our common stock to raise capital. In addition, a reasonable number of shares of our common stock are reserved for issuance under our equity compensation plans, including shares to be issued upon the vesting of restricted stock or unit grants. We cannot predict the size of future issuances or the effect, if any, that they may have on the market price for our common stock. The issuance and sales of substantial amounts of common stock, or the perception that such issuances and sales may occur, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Overview and Outlook
Overview. We design, develop, manufacture, service and market proprietary engineered industrial products. We have 45 primary manufacturing and service facilities located in 13 countries, including the United States. Over the past year and a half, we have executed several strategic initiatives to change the portfolio of businesses that we operate to focus on materials science-based businesses with leading technologies, compelling margins, strong cash flow, and high levels of recurring revenue that serve markets with favorable secular tailwinds. These initiatives, which are described below, have increased our ability to provide solutions to the semiconductor, life sciences, and other technology industries.
We manage our business as three segments: a Sealing Technologies segment, an Advanced Surface Technologies segment, and an Engineered Materials segment.
Our Sealing Technologies segment designs, manufactures and sells sealing products, including: metallic, non-metallic and composite material gaskets, dynamic seals, compression packing, resilient metal seals, elastomeric seals, custom-engineered mechanical seals for applications in the aerospace industry and other markets, hydraulic components, expansion joints, sanitary gaskets, hoses and fittings for the hygienic process industries, fluid transfer products for the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries, hole forming products, bellows and bellows assemblies, PTFE products, and heavy-duty
22


commercial vehicle parts used in wheel-end and suspension components. These products are used in a variety of industries, including chemical and petrochemical processing, pulp and paper processing, power generation, food and pharmaceutical processing, primary metal manufacturing, mining, water and waste treatment, heavy-duty trucking, aerospace, medical, filtration and semiconductor fabrication. In many of these industries, performance and durability are vital for safety and environmental protection. Many of our products are used in highly demanding applications, e.g., where extreme temperatures, extreme pressures, corrosive environments, strict tolerances, and/or worn equipment make product performance difficult.
Our Advanced Surface Technologies segment applies proprietary technologies, processes, and capabilities to deliver highly differentiated suites of products and services for the most challenging applications in high growth markets. The segment’s products and services are used in highly demanding environments requiring performance, precision and repeatability, with a low tolerance for failure. The segment’s services include cleaning, coating, testing, refurbishment and verification services for critical components and assemblies used in state-of-the-art advanced node semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The segment also designs, manufactures and sells specialized optical filters and thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, and semiconductor markets and complex front-end wafer processing sub-systems, new and refurbished electrostatic chuck pedestals, thin film coatings, and edge-welded metal bellows for the semiconductor equipment industry and for critical applications in the space, aerospace and defense markets.
Our Engineered Materials segment includes operations that design, manufacture and sell self-lubricating, non-rolling metal-polymer, engineered plastics, and fiber reinforced composite bearing products, precision engineered components and lubrication systems for reciprocating compressors and engines, critical service flange gaskets, seals and electrical flange isolation kits used in high-pressure wellhead equipment, flow lines, water injection lines, sour hydrocarbon process applications, and crude oil and natural gas pipeline/transmission line applications. These products are used in a wide range of applications, including the automotive, aerospace, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, natural gas, health, power generation, machine tools, air treatment, refining, petrochemical and general industrial markets.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, we evaluated our internal reporting and determined to have a new segment as the result of internal reorganizations and the acquisition of Alluxa. Our new segment, Advanced Surface Technologies, is composed of Alluxa and our semiconductor businesses, which includes our LeanTeq and Technetics Semiconductor businesses, previously reported in our Sealing Technologies segment within our Technetics reporting unit. The change involved the transfer of $180.1 million of goodwill from the Sealing Technologies segment to our Advanced Surface Technologies segment.
As a result of this transition, our Technetics reporting unit was tested for impairment both before and after the allocation of goodwill and the newly formed Semiconductor reporting unit (composed of LeanTeq and Technetics Semiconductor businesses) was tested after the allocation. We determined that the Technetics reporting unit was not impaired prior to the transfer of goodwill. After the transfer, the Technetics Sealing reporting unit was allocated $67.7 million of goodwill and, as of our allocation date of December 1, 2020, we determined it was not impaired as its fair value exceeded its carrying value by 26%. We also determined that our Semiconductor reporting unit, allocated $180.1 million of goodwill as of our allocation date of December 1, 2020, was not impaired and its fair value exceeded its carrying value by 2%. Any change in assumptions, including forecasted performance or external market information used in our fair value calculation, including the determination of our discount rate, could result in a future impairment of the goodwill allocated to the Semiconductor reporting unit.
We determined our weighted average cost of capital ("WACC") for our Semiconductor reporting unit, used in our discounted cash flow analysis, to be 12.0% at our allocation date of December 1, 2020. If the WACC used in this assessment would increase by one percentage point, we estimate that the carrying value of the Semiconductor reporting unit would exceed the fair value by approximately $20.0 million and would result in a corresponding impairment.
To estimate the fair value of our reporting units, we use both a discounted cash flow and market valuation approach. The discounted cash flow approach uses cash flow projections to calculate the fair value of each reporting unit while the market approach relies on market multiples of similar companies. The key assumptions used for the discounted cash flow approach include projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates and tax rates. The discount rate we use is based on its weighted average cost of capital. For the market approach, we choose a group of peer companies we believe is best representative of each reporting unit. We used a 75% weighting for the discounted cash flow valuation approach and a 25% weighting for the market valuation approach, reflecting our belief that the discounted cash flow valuation approach provides a better indicator of a reporting unit's value since it reflects the specific cash flows anticipated to be generated in the future by the business.
We will continue to monitor its performance as well as other market factors and test for impairment if we determine a triggering event has occurred. All other reporting units were tested at our annual test date of October 1, 2020 and their fair value exceeded their carrying value by at least 20%. We will test all reporting units again at our next test date of October 1, 2021 or earlier as circumstances may require.
23


In the second quarter of 2020 we reclassified the oil and gas component of our Garlock Pipeline Technologies ("GPT") business from the Sealing Technologies segment to the Engineered Materials segment. This reclassification allowed us to group our two oil and gas businesses, GPT and Compressor Products International, together to be managed as one business unit. The change also involved the transfer of $5.8 million of goodwill from the Sealing Technologies segment to the Engineered Materials segment. As a result of the transition of this component of the GPT business, an interim goodwill impairment test was performed in the second quarter of 2020 for all reporting units. We determined that the carrying amount of our goodwill was not impaired either before or after the reclassification.
These changes are reflected in all periods presented in Note 19, "Business Segment Information". The goodwill transfer is reflected in all periods presented in Note 9, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets"
In connection with the decision in the fourth quarter of 2020 to realign our reporting segments, we determined that the primary metric used by management to allocate resources and assess segment performance had shifted from segment profit to Adjusted Segment EBITDA, which is segment profit excluding acquisition and divestiture expenses, restructuring and impairment costs, non-controlling interest compensation, and depreciation and amortization.
Acquisitions
On October 26, 2020, a subsidiary of EnPro formed for this purpose (the "Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary") acquired all of the equity securities of Alluxa, Inc. ("Alluxa"), a privately held, California-based company. Alluxa is an industrial technology company that provides specialized optical filters and thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, and semiconductor markets. Alluxa's products are developed through a proprietary coating process using state-of-the-art advanced equipment. Alluxa is included as part of the Advanced Surface Technologies segment.

Alluxa works in collaboration with customers across major end markets to provide customized, complex precision coating solutions through its specialized technology platform and proprietary processes. Alluxa has long-standing customer relationships across its diversified customer base, serving customers across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Founded in 2007, Alluxa has two locations in California and is headquartered in Santa Rosa, California.

The cash purchase price of Alluxa was $238.4 million, net of cash acquired. We funded the purchase with available cash and rollover equity from Alluxa executives. In connection with the completion of the transaction, we entered into a limited liability operating agreement with respect to the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary in connection with the rollover transaction, with three equity owners of Alluxa, who were also executives of Alluxa (the "Alluxa Executives"), receiving approximately 7% of the equity interests of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary in return for their contribution of the rollover shares of Alluxa.

In connection with the consummation of the Alluxa acquisition, the Alluxa Executives entered into a limited liability operating agreement (the “Alluxa LLC Agreement”) with respect to Alluxa Subsidiary. Under the LLC Agreement, the Alluxa Executives have certain governance and information rights with respect to the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary and are subject to transfer restrictions with respect to their equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary. Each Alluxa Executive also has the right to sell to the Company, and the Company has the right to purchase from each Alluxa Executive (collectively, the “Alluxa Put and Call Rights”), one-third of the Alluxa Executive’s equity interests in Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary during each of three exercise periods commencing on January 1 and ending on June 30 of each of 2024, 2025 and 2026, with any amount not sold or purchased in a prior exercise period being carried forward to the subsequent exercise periods. The Alluxa LLC Agreement also provides for the purchase by the Company of all of an Alluxa Executive’s equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary in connection with the termination of employment of the Alluxa Executive under specified circumstances, with payments in certain circumstances to be made in annual installments. In connection with a Alluxa Executive’s death, disability, or incapacity at any time prior to December 31, 2023 or a separation from employment for cause, including the Alluxa Executive’s breach of the non-competition and non-solicitation agreement, or a voluntary separation from employment without good reason, the consideration payable under the Alluxa LLC Agreement in connection with any such purchase by the Company of an Alluxa Executive’s equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary is equal to the fixed value of the equity interests as set forth in the Alluxa LLC Agreement. In all other cases, including upon any exercise of the Alluxa Put and Call Rights, the consideration payable under the Alluxa LLC Agreement in connection with any such purchase by the Company of an Alluxa Executive’s equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary is equal to the greater of the fixed value of the equity interests as set forth in the Alluxa LLC Agreement or a price based upon a multiple of twelve-month adjusted EBITDA based upon certain financial metrics of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary, plus cash and less indebtedness of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary prior to the relevant payment, and subject to certain adjustments dependent upon the circumstances of the purchase and sale.
On July 2, 2019, we acquired The Aseptic Group (comprising Aseptic Process Equipment SAS and Aseptic Services SARL). Headquartered in Limonest, France, The Aseptic Group distributes, designs, and manufactures aseptic fluid transfer
24


products for the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries. The Aseptic Group has been included as part of EnPro’s Garlock division within the Sealing Technologies segment.
On September 25, 2019, we acquired the outstanding equity securities of LeanTeq, LLC and LeanTeq Co., Ltd. (collectively "LeanTeq"), a privately-held, Taiwan-based company. LeanTeq provides refurbishment services for critical components and assemblies used in state-of-the-art semiconductor equipment. The equipment is used to produce the latest and most technologically advanced microchips for smartphones, autonomous vehicles, high-speed wireless connectivity (5G), artificial intelligence, and other leading-edge applications.
LeanTeq was founded in 2011, is headquartered in Taoyuan City, Taiwan, and has two locations in Taiwan and one in the United States (Silicon Valley). LeanTeq partners closely with original equipment manufacturers throughout the development and production lifecycle to achieve Process of Record qualifications, enabling long-term, recurring aftermarket revenue. Aftermarket refurbishment services have historically represented approximately 65% of LeanTeq's total sales. LeanTeq’s suite of services includes cleaning, coating, analytical testing, inspection and verification, kit assembly, failure analysis, and other value-added services. LeanTeq is included as part of EnPro's Advanced Surface Technologies segment.
In connection with the consummation of the LeanTeq acquisition, two LeanTeq equity holders who are managers of LeanTeq (the “LeanTeq Executives”) applied approximately 10% of the total transaction consideration paid in the acquisition to purchase equity interests of our subsidiary (the “LeanTeq Acquisition Subsidiary”) acquiring LeanTeq pursuant to an agreement (the “LeanTeq LLC Agreement”) entered into upon the closing of the LeanTeq acquisition (the “LeanTeq Closing”). Under the LeanTeq LLC Agreement, each of the LeanTeq Executives will also have the right to sell to us, and we will have the right to purchase from each of the LeanTeq Executives, the LeanTeq Executive’s equity interests in the LeanTeq Acquisition Subsidiary, following the third anniversary of the Closing, a change-of-control of the LeanTeq Acquisition Subsidiary or EnPro, dissolution of the LeanTeq Acquisition Subsidiary, termination of employment, death or disability of the LeanTeq Executive, and certain other circumstances such as a dispute regarding our performance of the LeanTeq LLC Agreement. The consideration, which is payable in two installments, in such purchase and sale arrangements is generally to be based upon a multiple of twelve-month adjusted EBITDA based upon certain financial metrics of the LeanTeq Acquisition Subsidiary, plus cash and less indebtedness of the LeanTeq Acquisition Subsidiary prior to the relevant installment payment, subject to certain adjustments dependent upon the circumstances of the purchase and sale.
The combined purchase price of the LeanTeq and The Aseptic Group acquisitions was approximately $338.5 million, net of cash acquired and including the equity rollover from the LeanTeq Executives.

Dispositions
On December 31, 2020, we sold the shares of Technetics Group UK Limited ("Technetics Group UK") for a nominal cash purchase price. As part of the agreement with the buyer, we delivered to the buyer £148,000 of cash to fund value added tax ("VAT") payments due for VAT liabilities already incurred and £50,000 for working capital. We incurred a loss upon the sale of approximately £976,000 ($1.3 million).
On November 30, 2020, we closed on the sale of our bushing block business in our the Engineered Materials segment principally located in Dieuze, France. Prior to finalizing the sale of the business, we determined it to be impaired and recorded a $6.2 million impairment charge that consisted of $1.8 million of non-cash impairments of long-lived assets and $4.4 million of cash payments due to the buyer at closing. The impairment charge was recorded in other operating expenses on our consolidated statement of operations. Upon closing of the business, we recorded a $0.1 million gain on the sale of business in other non-operating expense on our consolidated statement of operations. Total charges related to the exit of our bushing block business were $6.1 million.
On November 20, 2020, we completed the sale of the Air Springs portion of our heavy-duty trucking business for $23.1 million in cash, net of an estimated working capital adjustment and fees, and a long-term promissory note with a fair-value of $6.4 million (face value of $7.5 million). As part of the agreement with the buyer, we retained the U.S. accounts receivable for the business, which created a large working capital adjustment at closing. The amount of retained accounts receivable in the U.S. was approximately $8.6 million. The purchase price is subject to final working capital adjustments. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we recorded a $0.1 million non-cash loss on sale of business to in the fourth quarter of 2020.
In August of 2020, subsequent to announcing the exit of our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands in the second quarter of 2020, we identified a buyer and entered into a definitive agreement to sell the assets related to the businesses. On September 2, 2020, we completed the sale for $8.9 million, net of transaction fees. This transaction resulted in a $3.1 million loss on sale of the business in other non-operating expense on our consolidated statements of operations, composed of a $3.0 million non-cash loss on the sales of assets and a $0.1 million loss on other expenses. Prior to finding a buyer of the brands, we determined the assets were impaired and recorded restructuring and impairment charges of $7.4 million
25


in other operating expenses on our consolidated statements of operations. Total losses on the exit of our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands recorded in 2020 were $10.5 million.
In the second quarter of 2020 we entered into an agreement to sell the Lunar® air disc brake business located in both the U.S. and in Shanghai, China. The sale of the U.S. assets of the business closed in the third quarter of 2020 for $0.3 million, resulting in a gain of $0.2 million recorded in non-operating income on our consolidated statement of operations. The sale of the Lunar® manufacturing facility located in Shanghai, China closed in the fourth quarter of 2020 for $0.9 million, resulting in no gain or loss. Prior to closing on the sale of the business, we determined the assets to be impaired and recorded a $2.1 million impairment charge, of which $1.6 million was related to impairment of long-lived assets and $0.5 million related to the impairment of inventory. The impairment of long-lived assets was recorded in other operating expense and the impairment of inventory was recorded in cost of sales on our consolidated statement of operations. Total net loss related to the exit of the Lunar® air disc brake business was $1.9 million.
On December 12, 2019, certain of our subsidiaries entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with Arcline FM Holdings, LLC (“Arcline FM Holdings”), an affiliate of Arcline Investment Management, LP, pursuant to which we agreed to transfer all of the outstanding equity interests in our indirect subsidiary, Fairbanks Morse, LLC (“Fairbanks Morse”), to Arcline FM Holdings and to cause one of our subsidiaries to sell certain related Canadian assets to an affiliate of Arcline FM Holdings, for an aggregate purchase price of $450 million. This divestiture transaction was completed on January 21, 2020. Fairbanks Morse manufactured heavy-duty, medium-speed reciprocating engines used primarily in marine and power generation applications and comprised our entire Power Systems segment. In light of the entry into the definitive agreement in December 2019 to divest Fairbanks Morse, we classified the Power Systems segment as a discontinued operation for the fourth quarter and full year 2019, and all prior quarterly and annual financial results of EnPro have been recast to reflect the Power Systems segment as a discontinued operation. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts discussed in this Item 8 pertain to continuing operations only (see Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-K for information on discontinued operations and the disposition of Fairbanks Morse).
In September 2019, we sold certain assets and certain liabilities of our brake products business unit located in Rome, Georgia, which was included in our Sealing Technologies segment. The aggregate sales price for the transaction was $6.8 million, of which we received $3.6 million in September 2019 at the closing of the sale of the business and $0.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 that was applied to the sale of the building, which closed in February 2020. On the closing of the sale of the building, we received $2.9 million and received the balance of $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2020.
After attempts to sell the ATDynamics business during the fourth quarter of 2019, in January 2020, we decided to shut down the ATDynamics business (an asset group in the Stemco division of our Sealing Technologies segment). As a result of the unsuccessful sales process, we reviewed the carrying amounts of long-lived assets at December 31, 2019 and determined the carrying amounts were not recoverable. As a result of this assessment, we recorded a $2.6 million impairment loss in the fourth quarter of 2019. In connection with the decision to shut down the business, we decided to not complete and sell the inventory we had on hand and recognized a $1.5 million inventory impairment.
We review the carrying amounts of long-lived assets when certain events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable.  In 2020, sales declines by businesses utilizing two of the indefinite-lived trademarks within our Sealing Technologies segment were determined to be triggering events for an impairment analysis. Based on the results of this analysis, we recorded a $16.1 million impairment of indefinite-lived trademarks in the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter of 2019, in consideration of the financial performance of the Motorwheel business, an asset group in the Stemco division of our Sealing Technologies segment, we determined that a test of Motorwheel's recoverability was required. As a result of this test, all long-lived assets of Motorwheel were determined to be impaired, resulting in an impairment loss of $21.0 million, which equaled the excess of these assets' net book value at December 31, 2019 over their fair value.

COVID-19 Response.
As COVID-19 has spread, it has significantly impacted the health and economic environment around the world. Our customers are principally global manufacturers and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on general economic conditions, and more deleterious effects on certain markets, such as oil and gas and automotive, are having and will continue to have negative implications on demand for their goods and consequently on their demand for our products and services. Because of uncertainties with respect to the continuing severity and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak, the duration and terms of related governmental orders restricting activities, and the timing and pace of any economic recovery as COVID-19 impacts ultimately abate, we cannot predict with precision the extent and duration of any future decreased demand for our products and services and the consequent impact on our business and financial results.

In March 2020, we established a COVID-19 Response and Support Team (the "Support Team"), which is made up of our global executive leadership team with representatives from each functional area within the organization. The Support Team is working diligently to manage our business continuity plans and coordinated response. We have planned for several contingency scenarios and have taken decisive, informed action to limit the spread of COVID-19 while ensuring the continuity of our businesses. We are leveraging direction from our internal safety protocols, international health organizations, such as the WHO and the Centers for Disease Control, as well as local governments. We have local response teams at each of our facilities who are available to respond to changes as they occur. 
With respect to business operations and the protection of our employees, we have taken numerous actions including:
Suspension of all non-essential travel; 
Implementation of mandatory work from home, where feasible;
Expansion of information technology infrastructure to enable working remotely and holding virtual meetings;
Implementation of employee testing and contact tracing;
Restrictions on visitors to EnPro facilities;
Training of employees in enhanced cleaning and disinfecting protocols and providing
supplemental personal protective equipment at each of our facilities;
Safe operating procedures such as temperature scanning and the use of masks;
Establishing social distancing protocols in our manufacturing sites;
Implementation of quarantining policies and practices with respect to any infected employee;
Creation of a dedicated communications platform and internal website to address questions from employees
and provide frequent updates; and,
Development of a virtual sales platform.
Although most of our businesses are granted "essential" business status under local government safety orders around the world, we had to temporarily close several of our facilities during 2020. All of our primary manufacturing facilities are currently open and have not experienced significant supply chain disruptions. Additionally, each of our businesses has developed continuity and contingency plans, based on various scenarios in preparation for potential operational disruptions, to permit us to adjust production levels to demand. We cannot predict if and when further closures or production changes may arise as a result of implications related to the COVID-19 pandemic.  
To help protect the strength of our financial position, we have implemented several measures including:  
Aggressive cost management initiatives; 
Discretionary spending reductions;
Capital expenditure prioritization;
Headcount optimization plans, as needed; and
Increased working capital monitoring to ensure timely accounts receivable collections and inventory level
optimization.

Refinancing
On October 17, 2018, we issued $350.0 million of aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Senior Notes"). We applied the net proceeds of that offering, together with borrowings under our revolving credit facility, to redeem the outstanding $450 million of aggregate principal amount of our 5.875% Senior Notes due 2022 (the "Old Notes"). The Old Notes were redeemed at a price equal to 102.938% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. We recorded a loss on the redemption of the Old Notes of approximately $18.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2018.
Pension Settlement
On June 26, 2018, we entered into an agreement to purchase a group annuity contract to transfer approximately $68 million of our outstanding pension projected benefit obligations related to certain U.S. retirees or beneficiaries. The transaction closed on July 3, 2018 and was funded with pension plan assets with a value of $70.9 million. As a result of this transaction a pretax pension settlement charge of approximately $12.8 million was recognized in the third quarter of 2018.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, our end markets saw varied demand changes as a result of the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the impact of COVID-19 on the broader global economy, we had a strong financial performance in the fourth quarter and were able to achieve a number of important milestones as we continued to transform our business, including completion of the Alluxa acquisition and the sale of STEMCO’s Air Springs and GGB’s bushing block businesses. Full-year sales growth in semiconductor, food and pharmaceuticals, and power generation markets, including the contributions from the acquisitions of LeanTeq, the Aseptic Group, and Alluxa, was more than offset by sales weakness within the general industrial, oil and gas, heavy-duty truck, aerospace, and automotive markets resulting from the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic. The decline in sales was also driven by the divestitures of businesses in connection with our portfolio reshaping strategy.
Our year-to-date adjusted segment EBITDA was slightly up compared to the prior year, mainly due to contributions by our acquisitions of Alluxa, LeanTeq, and Aseptic. Excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures and the impact foreign exchange had on our results, we saw approximately a 14.1% decrease in adjusted segment EBITDA from the prior year. This was mainly attributable to decreased sales due to the challenging conditions of COVID-19. While these challenging conditions have continued to date and some of our businesses continue to experience reduced order levels compared to prior-year levels, we will stay focused on cost management and the achieving the benefits of our portfolio reshaping to help us obtain anticipated increased adjusted segment EBITDA in 2021.
In connection with changes to our segmentation in the fourth quarter of 2020, we aligned the businesses in our Sealing Technologies segment under common leadership and are implementing a shared-services structure. The new structure will allow us to reduce complexity, while increasing efficiency and providing cost savings to the Sealing Technologies segment. We expect to incur restructuring charges in 2021 as we continue to refine the structure of the organization.
The net proceeds from the divestiture of Fairbanks Morse on January 21, 2020 have allowed us to deleverage our balance sheet. We believe our cash balance of approximately $230 million at December 31, 2020 and the availability of $389 million for future borrowings on our revolving credit facility will provide us with ample liquidity to continue the reshaping of the EnPro portfolio. We remain committed to maintaining a strong balance sheet, focusing on aftermarket exposure and recurring revenue opportunities, and leveraging the EnPro Capability Center for continuous improvement and increased value. The EnPro Capability Center is our enterprise-wide program to deploy capabilities across the company to improve productivity, efficiency, and innovation. It is based on lean manufacturing concepts to create value by maintaining world class standards, increasing cash
28


flow and margins, empowering employees with a learning and ownership-based mentality and instilling a desire to learn from others, contribute to others, and ensure company-wide commitment and accountability.
While the merger and acquisition environment has been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, in connection with our growth strategy, we will continue to evaluate making additional acquisitions to take advantage of opportunities that arise. We may consider making additional divestitures over time and under the right circumstances, to further our long-term strategic goals of refocusing our portfolio on businesses with compelling margins, leading technology, high cash flow return on investment, and favorable secular tailwinds.

We remain committed to our strategy to create shareholder value through earnings growth and balanced capital allocation. We remain focused on disciplined investments for organic growth and innovation, strategic acquisitions, and returning capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. In October 2018, our board of directors authorized a two-year program for expenditures of up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common shares. Prior to the expiration of this authorization in October 2020, we repurchased a total of 0.3 million shares for $20.3 million, of which we repurchased 0.1 million shares for $5.3 million in 2020 and we repurchased 0.2 million shares for $15.0 million in 2019. In October of 2020, our board of directors authorized a new two-year program of up to $50.0 million for the repurchase of our common shares through October 2022. We have yet to make any repurchases under the new authorization. In February 2021, our board of directors approved an increase in the quarterly dividend from $0.26 per share to $0.27 per share.
In connection with our growth strategy, we will continue to evaluate acquisitions; however, the effect of such acquisitions cannot be predicted and therefore is not reflected in this outlook.

We measure operating performance based on segment earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other selected items ("Adjusted Segment EBITDA" or "Segment AEBITDA"), which is segment profit excluding acquisition and divestiture expenses, restructuring costs, impairment charges, non-controlling interest compensation, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted Segment EBITDA is not defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies.

Segment profit is total segment revenue reduced by operating, restructuring and other expenses identifiable with the segment. Corporate expenses include general corporate administrative costs. Expenses not directly attributable to the segments, including corporate expenses, net interest expense, asbestos-related expenses, asset impairments, gains/losses related to the sale of assets, and income taxes are not included in the computation of segment profit. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those for EnPro.

Non-controlling interest compensation allocation represents compensation expense associated with a portion of the rollover equity from the acquisitions of LeanTeq and Alluxa being subject to reduction for certain types of employment terminations of the sellers. This expense is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and is directly related to the terms of the acquisitions. This expense will continue to be recognized as compensation expense over the term of the put and call options associated with each of these acquisitions unless certain employment terminations have occurred.

Corporate expenses for 2018 reflect the reclassification of allocated personnel costs from the discontinued Power Systems segment to corporate expenses. The allocated personnel costs relate to services provided to the Power Systems segment by corporate personnel which cannot be reflected in results of discontinued operations pursuant to applicable accounting guidance. The amounts reclassified from Power Systems to corporate expenses were $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Other expense, net in the table above contains all items included in other (operating) expense and other expense, net on our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the years ending December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 with the exception of $26.2 million, $6.3 million, and $19.1 million, respectively, of segment restructuring costs and $0.7 million of corporate restructuring costs in 2019. As noted previously, restructuring costs are considered to be a part of segment profit. Additionally, other expense, net in the table above for the years ending December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 also includes $6.1 million, $4.1 million, and $2.6 million, respectively, of miscellaneous expenses that are either not associated with a particular segment or not considered part of administering the corporate headquarters. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expense on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
2020 Compared to 2019

Sales of $1,074.0 million in 2020 decreased 10.9% from $1,205.7 million in 2019. The following table summarizes the impact of acquisitions, divestitures, and foreign currency on sales by segment:

Following are the key effects of acquisitions and divestitures on sales for 2020 compared to 2019:
Acquisition of The Aseptic Group in the third quarter of 2019 in the Sealing Technologies segment;
Acquisition of LeanTeq in the third quarter of 2019 in the Advanced Surface Technologies segment;
Acquisition of Alluxa in the fourth quarter of 2020 in the Advanced Surface Technologies segments;
Exit of the brake products business unit located in Rome, Georgia in the third quarter of 2019 in the Sealing Technologies segment;
Divestiture of Motorwheel in the third quarter of 2020 in the Sealing Technologies segment; and
Divestiture of AirSprings in the fourth quarter of 2020 in the Sealing Technologies segment.

Following is a discussion of operating results for each segment during 2020 compared to 2019:

Sealing Technologies. Sales of $636.7 million in 2020 reflect a 16.5% decrease compared to $762.4 million in 2019. Excluding the impact of acquisition sales ($5.8 million) and divestitures sales ($43.6 million), sales were down 12.4 % or $88.9 million. This decline was due primarily to decreased demand in the heavy-duty truck, general industrial, and aerospace markets, despite growth in the food and pharmaceutical market.

Segment AEBITDA of $131.0 million in 2020 decreased 0.3% from $131.4 million in 2019. Segment AEBITDA margin increased from 17.2% in 2019 to 20.6% in 2020. Excluding the impact of Segment AEBITDA from acquisitions ($1.9 million), losses from divestitures ($5.0 million), the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange translation ($0.6 million), Segment AEBITDA was down 6.0% or $8.2 million. The Segment AEBITDA impact from our reduced sales ($44.1 million) was offset by reduced marketing and selling expenses ($8.0 million), lower travel-related expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic ($6.3 million), decreased material costs ($5.7 million), reduced warranty charges ($5.1 million), improved product mix ($4.2 million), decreased research and development spend ($3.2 million), increased pricing ($2.9 million), and manufacturing efficiencies ($2.3 million).

Advanced Surface Technologies. Sales of $171.2 million in 2020 reflect a 42.4% increase compared to $120.2 million in 2019. Excluding the impact of sales attributable to acquisitions ($37.0 million) and the impact of favorable foreign exchange
31


translation ($0.8 million), sales were up 10.9 % or $13.1 million. This increase was driven by continued strength within the semiconductor market.
Segment AEBITDA of $47.1 million in 2020 increased 100.4% from $23.5 million in 2019. Segment AEBITDA margin increased from 19.6% in 2019 to 27.5% in 2020. Excluding the impact of Segment AEBITDA from acquisitions ($23.5 million) and the favorable impact of foreign exchange translation ($0.5 million), Segment AEBITDA was down 1.7% or $0.4 million. The Segment AEBITDA impact from our increased sales volume ($7.1 million) was offset by an unfavorable product mix and increased production costs ($7.1 million).

Engineered Materials. Sales in 2020 decreased 17.0% to $275.0 million from $331.3 million in 2019. Excluding the impact of favorable foreign exchange translation ($0.8 million), sales were down $57.1 million, or 17.2%, primarily due to weakness in automotive, oil and gas, and general industrial market despite growth in the power generation market.
Segment AEBITDA of $32.5 million in 2020 decreased from $53.7 million in 2019, a decrease of $21.2 million, or 39.5%. Segment AEBITDA margin was 11.8%, down from the 16.2% in 2019. Excluding the impact of favorable foreign exchange translation ($0.4 million), Segment AEBITDA decreased $21.7 million, or 40.4%, driven mainly by decreased sales volume ($35.3 million) and an unfavorable product mix ($4.1 million), partially offset by manufacturing savings driven by restructuring efforts ($7.2 million), reduced marketing and selling costs ($5.7 million), lower travel-related expenses ($2.8 million), and reduced incentive compensation expenses ($2.1 million).

Corporate expenses for 2020 increased $1.5 million as compared to 2019. The increase was driven primarily by higher professional fees and consulting costs ($3.3 million). These costs were partially offset by reduced travel, and meetings expenses due to the COVID-19 pandemic ($1.2 million) and less restructuring costs ($0.7 million).

Interest expense, net in 2020 decreased by $3.3 million as compared to 2019, primarily due to lower average outstanding debt.

Other expense, net in 2020 increased by $3.6 million as compared to 2019, due mainly to a $23.5 million increase in environmental charges, a $7.5 million legal settlement of a products liability claim for goods last supplied in 2008, and $2.0 million of increased miscellaneous expenses that are either not associated with a particular segment or not considered part of administering the corporate headquarters, including COVID-19 related expenses such as facility cleaning fees and personal protective equipment. The increase in environmental costs was principally due to the resolution of environmental litigation brought by the State of Mississippi to recover remediation costs it had incurred with respect to the Water Valley site ($14.0 million) and the establishment of baseline reserves in the fourth quarter for two environmental matters for which we previously did not have sufficient information to estimate a range of reasonable likely remediation costs ($25.4 million, offset by a probable recovery of $3.8 million from the U.S. government). These increases were partially offset by a $13.7 million decrease in losses on sales of businesses, $9.6 million in lower impairment charges, and a $6.3 million reduction in pension (non-service) expense.

Income tax benefit was $3.5 million in both 2020 and 2019. The effective tax rates for 2020 and 2019 were 13.2% and (79.3%) respectively. The effective tax rate for 2020 was primarily driven by the foreign rate differential associated with certain foreign divestitures and earnings that were subject to higher tax rates, the effect of these items resulted in a net $5.2 million increase in tax expense. Our effective tax rate was also impacted by global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) high tax exception election and non-deductible expenses which resulted in a net $2.7 million decrease in tax expense.

Loss from continuing operations was $23.3 million, or $1.15 per share, in 2020 compared to income from continuing operations of $7.8 million, or $0.38 per share, in 2019.
2019 Compared to 2018

Sales of $1,205.7 million in 2019 decreased 5.4% from $1,274.1 million in 2018. The following table summarizes the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency by segment:

Following are the key effects of acquisitions on sales for 2019 compared to 2018:
Exit of the industrial gas turbine business in the second quarter of 2018 in the Sealing Technologies segment;
Acquisition of The Aseptic Group in the third quarter of 2019 in the Sealing Technologies segment;
Acquisition of LeanTeq in the third quarter of 2019 in the Advanced Surface Technologies segment; and
Exit of the brake products business unit located in Rome, Georgia in the third quarter of 2019 in the Sealing Technologies segment.

Following is a discussion of operating results for each segment during 2019 compared to 2018:

Sealing Technologies. Sales of $762.4 million in 2019 reflect an 6.2% decrease compared to $813.1 million in 2018. Excluding the benefit of acquisitions ($2.5 million), sales from divestitures ($7.3 million), and favorable foreign exchange translation ($1.0 million), sales were down 3.5% or $27.6 million. This decline was due primarily to softness in heavy-duty trucking and power generation markets, partially offset by strengthening in aerospace, food and pharmaceutical, and oil and gas markets.
Segment AEBITDA of $131.4 million in 2019 decreased 4.4% from $137.4 million in 2018. Segment AEBITDA margin increased from 16.9% in 2018 to 17.2% in 2019. Excluding the impact of Segment AEBITDA from acquisitions ($1.9 million), losses from divestitures ($5.7 million) and the unfavorable impact of foreign exchange translation ($1.6 million), Segment AEBITDA was down 8.3% or $11.9 million. The decrease in Segment AEBITDA was primarily attributable to the reduced sales volume ($16.2 million) and an unfavorable product mix ($5.4 million), partially offset by increased pricing ($9.0 million), and reduced warranty charges ($3.4 million).

Advanced Surface Technologies. Sales of $120.2 million in 2019 reflect a 5.4% increase compared to $114.0 million in 2018. Excluding the impact of acquisition sales ($9.0 million) sales were down 2.5 % or $2.8 million. This decrease was driven by a semiconductor market slowdown in 2019, partially offset by gains in aerospace and oil and gas markets.
Adjusted Segment EBITDA of $23.5 million in 2019 increased 33.5% from $17.6 million in 2018. Adjusted EBITDA margins for the segment increased from 15.4% in 2018 to 19.6% in 2019. Excluding the impact from acquisitions ($4.9 million), Segment Adjusted EBITDA was up 5.7% or $1.0 million. The increase in Adjusted Segment EBITDA was driven by a favorable product mix ($1.2 million) and manufacturing efficiencies ($2.3 million), partially offset by the aforementioned decrease in sales volume ($1.5 million) and a decrease in prices ($1.3 million).

Engineered Materials. Sales in 2019 decreased 6.7% to $331.3 million from $355.0 million in 2018. Excluding the impact of unfavorable foreign exchange translation ($11.0 million), sales were down 3.6% or $12.7 million primarily due to weakness in automotive and general industrial markets, partially offset by growth in oil and gas markets.
Segment AEBITDA of $53.7 million in 2019 decreased from $60.4 million in 2018, a decrease of $6.7 million, or 11.1%. Segment AEBITDA margin for the segment was 16.2%, down from the 17.0% in 2018. Excluding the impact of unfavorable foreign exchange translation ($2.3 million), Segment AEBITDA decreased $4.4 million, or 7.3%, driven mainly by decreased sales volume ($7.9 million) and impacts of tariffs ($1.0 million), partially offset by reduced incentive compensation expense ($3.3 million) and a more favorable product mix ($1.5 million).

Corporate expenses for 2019 increased $1.5 million as compared to 2018. The increase was driven primarily by higher restructuring costs ($1.0 million), increased professional services costs ($1.0 million), the favorable impact in 2018 from recognizing share based awards at fair value due to the decline in our share price during the period ($1.3 million), and increased costs related to the sale of Fairbanks Morse ($0.8 million), partially offset by decreased research and development costs ($1.0 million) due to the discontinuance of corporate-funded research and development beginning in 2019 and reduced medical costs ($1.9 million).

33


Interest expense, net in 2019 decreased by $9.1 million as compared to 2018, primarily due to lower average outstanding debt and a $3.2 million increase in interest credits in 2019 associated with our cross-currency swap agreements.

Other expense, net in 2019 increased by $16.2 million as compared to 2018, due mainly to $25.7 million of impairment charges in 2019, a $16.3 million loss on sale of our brake products business in 2019, $1.1 million increase in environmental reserves and costs from previously disposed of businesses, partially offset by a $8.6 million less pension (non-service) costs in 2019 and a $18.1 million expense in 2018 for extinguishment of debt upon the redemption of the Old Notes.

Income tax benefit was $3.5 million in 2019 and income tax expense was $19.8 million in 2018. The effective tax rates for 2019 and 2018 were (79.3%) and 131.4%, respectively. The effective tax rate for 2019 was lower than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate of 21.0% primarily due to the release of foreign valuation allowances, offset by tax on the global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”). The effect of these items resulted in a net $12.9 million decrease in tax expense. Our effective tax rate was also increased by certain of our earnings that were subject to higher tax rates in foreign jurisdictions.

Income from continuing operations was $7.8 million, or $0.38 per share, in 2019 compared to loss from continuing operations of $4.7 million, or $0.22 per share, in 2018.
Restructuring and Other Costs
We incurred $46.7 million, $35.1 million and $22.2 million of restructuring and impairment costs during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
In 2020 our Stemco business in our Sealing Technologies segment underwent significant restructuring and portfolio reshaping activities, including the exit of our Motorwheel® and Crewson® brake adjuster brands and our Lunar® air disc brake business. In our Engineered Materials segment, we were able to successfully restructure and divest our bushing block business operated in Dieuze, France. We also took significant restructuring activities in our CPI German workforce.
Additionally, sales declines by business utilizing two indefinite lived trademarks within our Sealing Technologies segment were determined to be triggering events for impairment analysis and an impairment charge was taken. Substantially all costs associated with these initiatives, as well as other smaller restructuring and impairment charges, were incurred or accrued for as of December 31, 2020. Workforce reductions in 2020 associated with our restructuring activities totaled 289 administrative and manufacturing positions. Of the $46.7 million of restructuring and impairment charges taken in 2020, $17.4 million was related to severance and other cash restructuring charges while $29.3 million was related to impairments and write-downs of assets, including long-lived and indefinite-lived intangible assets, property, plant, and equipment, and inventory.
During 2019, we conducted several restructuring activities in our Stemco division in the Sealing Technologies segment, mostly consisting of the exit of our automatic tire inflation systems and RF-based tire pressure monitoring and inflation system product lines and impairments related to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment of our Motorwheel product line. We also recorded restructuring and impairment costs related the shut down of our ATDynamics business completed in January 2020. Substantially all costs associated with these initiatives, as well as other smaller restructuring and impairment charges, were incurred or accrued for as of December 31, 2019. Workforce reductions in 2019 associated with our restructuring activities totaled 121 administrative and manufacturing positions. Of the $35.1 million of restructuring and impairment charges taken in 2019, $6.3 million was related to severance and other cash restructuring charges while $28.8 million was related to impairments and write-downs of assets, including long-lived and indefinite-lived intangible assets, property, plant, and equipment, and inventory.
In 2018, we commenced and completed the exit from our industrial gas turbine business in the Sealing Technologies segment located in Oxford, Massachusetts and we implemented a restructuring plan under which our Stemco heavy-duty truck business in the Sealing Technologies segment discontinued the manufacturing of brake drum friction. Substantially all costs associated with these initiatives were incurred in 2018, with the exception of severance costs related to our exit of the manufacturing of brake drum friction occurring in January 2019. Workforce reductions in 2018 associated with our exit from the industrial gas turbine business and other smaller targeted restructuring activities totaled 98 administrative and manufacturing positions. Of the $22.2 million of restructuring and impairment charges taken in 2019, $8.0 million was related to severance and other cash restructuring charges while $14.2 million was related to impairments and write-downs of assets, including long-lived intangible assets, property, plant, and equipment, and inventory.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash requirements for, but not limited to, working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, and debt repayments have been funded from cash balances on hand, revolver borrowings and cash generated from operations. We are proactively pursuing acquisition opportunities. Should we need additional capital, we have resources available, which are discussed in this section under the heading “Capital Resources.”
As of December 31, 2020, we held $83.4 million of cash and cash equivalents in the United States and $146.1 million of cash outside of the United States. If the funds held outside the United States were needed for our operations in the U.S., we have several methods to repatriate without significant tax effects, including repayment of intercompany loans, distributions subject to a 100 percent dividends-received deduction for income tax purposes, or distributions of previously-taxed earnings.
Because of the transition tax, GILTI, and Subpart F provisions, undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries totaling $196 million at year-end have been subjected to U.S. income tax or are eligible for the 100 percent dividends-received deduction under Section 245A of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") provided in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Whether through the application of the 100 percent dividends received deduction, or distribution of these previously-taxed earnings, we do not intend to distribute foreign earnings that will be subject to any significant incremental U.S. or foreign tax. During 2020, we repatriated $81.4 million of earnings from our foreign subsidiaries, resulting in no incremental U.S. tax and only $2.0 million of foreign withholding taxes. As a result, we have not recognized a deferred tax liability on our investment in foreign subsidiaries.
The net operating loss (“NOL”) resulting from a 2017 deduction in connection with the funding of our asbestos settlement trust was carried back to offset federal taxable income reported in the preceding ten years. We filed an initial carryback claim in May 2018 and received federal refunds totaling $96.9 million in 2018 ($95.8 million in June 2018 and $1.1 million in July 2018) and an additional $17.5 million in February 2019. In addition, amended income tax returns for the preceding ten years were filed in December 2018 to capture foreign tax credits freed up during the carryback period, and we expect federal refunds in 2021 from those returns totaling $21.8 million. The carryback claim and the amended returns have also freed up an additional $14.9 million in foreign tax credits, of which approximately $1.6 million were utilized to offset our 2019 federal tax liability with the remaining balance utilized to reduce taxes in 2020 and 2021.
Proceeds from Disposition
On December 13, 2019, we announced the signing of a definitive agreement to sell Fairbanks Morse, which transaction closed on January 21, 2020. Net proceeds received were approximately $444.3 million, of which $143.9 million was utilized to pay off all of the then outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility (defined below in "—Capital Resources"). Taxes on the gain of approximately $40 million were paid in 2020.
Cash Flows
Operating activities of continuing operations provided cash in the amount of $57.6 million, $130.8 million and $212.8 million in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decrease in operating cash flows in 2020 versus 2019 was primarily attributable to increased tax payments ($58.4 million) and increased payments related to environmental remediation ($26.5 million), partially offset by improved working capital. The decrease in operating cash flow in 2019 versus 2018 was primarily attributable to higher income tax refunds in 2018 driven by the asbestos settlement trust funding payments ($86.7 million), higher insurance receipts in 2018 ($24.1), partially offset by higher income from continuing operations and lower net working capital.
Investing activities of continuing operations provided $216.1 million in 2020, used $331.1 million in 2019, and provided $1.1 million of cash in 2018. The increase in cash provided by investing activities in 2020 was primarily driven by cash received from divestitures, including the sales of Fairbanks Morse, our Air Springs business and other businesses during the year ($475.1), partially offset by cash used in the acquisition of Alluxa ($238.3 million) as compared to cash used in 2019, primarily attributable to acquisitions of LeanTeq and Aseptic ($310.5 million). The increased cash usage in 2019 as compared to 2018 was driven by $310.5 million used for acquiring businesses, $26.3 million more cash provided by investing activities in 2018 for the sale of fixed assets and businesses, primarily from the sale of land and building at Oxford, Massachusetts as we exited our industrial gas turbine business of our Technetics division in the Sealing Technologies segment, and $9.3 million provided by settling derivative contracts in 2018, partially offset by lower capital expenditures in 2019 ($14.5 million).
Financing activities of continuing operations used $167.3 million in cash in 2020, primarily attributable to net payments on our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Facility (as defined below) of $138.3 million and $21.7 million in payments of dividends. Financing activities of continuing operations provided $123.8 million in 2019 primarily from $17.1 million net draw on the Revolving Credit Facility, and $149.1 million net proceeds from a new term loan facility, partially offset by $20.9 million in dividends paid and $15.0 million in cash used to repurchase stock. Financing activities used $252.4 million in 2018,
35


primarily from $118.4 million in redemption of the Old Notes, net of the net proceeds from the issuance of the Senior Notes (which terms are defined below), $56.8 million in net repayments on our revolving credit facility, $50.0 million in cash used to repurchase stock, and $20.3 million in dividends paid. Funding for this activity was mainly derived from the previously discussed tax refunds and repatriation of previously taxed earnings from our foreign subsidiaries.
Capital Resources
Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. On September 25, 2019, we entered into a First Amendment (the "First Amendment") to our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement”) among EnPro Industries, Inc. and EnPro Holdings, Inc. as borrowers, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year, senior secured revolving credit facility of $400.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a five-year, senior secured term loan facility of $150.0 million (the "Term Loan Facility" and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the "Facilities"). The Amended Credit Agreement also provides that the borrowers may seek incremental term loans and/or additional revolving credit commitments in an amount equal to the greater of $225.0 million and 100% of consolidated EBITDA (as defined) for the most recently ended four-quarter period for which we have reported financial results, plus additional amounts based on a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio.
Initially, borrowings under the Facilities bore interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.50% or base rate plus 0.50%, with the interest rates under the Facilities being subject to incremental increases based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio.  In addition, a commitment fee accrues with respect to the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at an annual rate of 0.175%, which rate is also subject to incremental increase or decrease based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio.
The Term Loan Facility amortizes on a quarterly basis in an annual amount equal to 2.50% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan Facility in each of years one through three, 5.00% of such original principal amount in year four, and 1.25% of such original principal amount in each of the first three quarters of year five, with the remaining outstanding principal amount payable at maturity.
The Facilities are subject to prepayment with the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales not reinvested in acquisitions within a specified period, casualty or condemnation events, and non-permitted debt issuances. There is no prepayment penalty for a full or partial repayment of the Facilities at any time.
The Company and EnPro Holdings are the permitted borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility.  We have the ability to add foreign subsidiaries as borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility for up to $100.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent) in aggregate borrowings, subject to certain conditions.  Each of our domestic, consolidated subsidiaries (other than any subsidiaries that may be designated as "unrestricted" by the Company from time to time) is required to guarantee the obligations of the borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility, and each of our existing domestic, consolidated subsidiaries has entered into the Credit Agreement to provide such a guarantee.
Borrowings under the Facilities are secured by a first-priority pledge of the following assets:
100% of the capital stock of each domestic, consolidated subsidiary of the Company (other than unrestricted subsidiaries);
65% of the capital stock of any first tier foreign subsidiary of the Company and its domestic, consolidated subsidiaries (other than unrestricted subsidiaries); and
substantially all of the assets (including, without limitation, machinery and equipment, inventory and other goods, accounts receivable, certain owned real estate and related fixtures, bank accounts, general intangibles, financial assets, investment property, license rights, patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, chattel paper, insurance proceeds, contract rights, hedge agreements, documents, instruments, indemnification rights, tax refunds and cash) of the Company and its domestic, consolidated subsidiaries (other than unrestricted subsidiaries)
The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants and required financial ratios, including:
a maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio of not more than 4.25 to 1.0 (with total debt, for the purposes of such ratio, to be net of up to $125 million of unrestricted cash of EnPro Industries, Inc. and its domestic, consolidated subsidiaries), which ratio will decrease to 4.0 to 1.0 for each fiscal quarter beginning with the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2020 and, once so decreased, may be increased (up to three times) at the borrowers' option to not more than 4.5 to 1.0 for the for-quarter period following a significant acquisition; and
a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of at least 2.5 to 1.0.
36


The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants (subject, in each case, to customary exceptions and qualifications), including covenants that limit our ability to, among other things:
grant liens on our assets;
incur additional indebtedness (including guarantees and other contingent obligations);
make certain investments (including loans and advances);
merge or make other fundamental changes;
sell or otherwise dispose of property or assets;
pay dividends and other distributions and prepay certain indebtedness;
make changes in the nature of our business;
enter into transactions with our affiliates;
enter into burdensome contracts; and
modify or terminate documents related to certain indebtedness.
We were in compliance with all covenants of the Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2020. On January 19, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the credit facility that waived the requirement to prepay the Term Loan Facility with remaining excess net cash proceeds related to the sale of Fairbanks Morse that had not been reinvested in operating assets within 365 days from the date of the sale.
The borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2020 was $388.6 million after giving consideration to $11.4 million of outstanding letters of credit.
Senior Notes. On October 17, 2018, we completed the offering of $350 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.75% senior notes due 2026 (the "Senior Notes") and applied the net proceeds of that offering, together with borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, to redeem on October 31, 2018 the full $450 million aggregate principal amount of our outstanding 5.875% senior notes due 2022 (the "Old Notes"), of which $300 million aggregate principal amount were issued in 2014 and $150 million aggregate principal amount were issued in a follow-on offering in 2017. The Old Notes were redeemed at a price equal to 102.938% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. We recorded a loss on the redemption of the Old Notes of approximately $18.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2018.
The Senior Notes were issued to investors at 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Senior Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of EnPro and mature on October 15, 2026. Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 5.75% per annum and is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing April 15, 2019. The Senior Notes are required to be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of EnPro’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower under, or guarantees, our indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility or guarantees any other Capital Markets Indebtedness (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Notes) of EnPro or any of the guarantors.
On or after October 15, 2021, we may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the Senior Notes at specified redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, we may redeem a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes before October 15, 2021 with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a specified redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. We may also redeem some or all of the Senior Notes before October 15, 2021 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus a “make whole” premium.
Each holder of the Senior Notes may require us to repurchase some or all of the Senior Notes held by such holder for cash upon the occurrence of a defined “change of control” event. Our ability to redeem the Senior Notes prior to maturity is subject to certain conditions, including in certain cases the payment of make-whole amounts.
The indenture governing the Senior Notes requires us to apply the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales not reinvested in acquisitions, capital expenditures, or used to repay or otherwise reduce specified indebtedness within a specified period, to the extent the remaining net proceeds exceed a specified amount, to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest. At December 31, 2020, approximately $10 million of the excess net cash proceeds related to the sale of Fairbanks Morse had not yet been reinvested. We expect these remaining excess proceeds to be reinvested prior to April 25, 2021, the date at which these excess proceeds must be reinvested, or applied to reduce indebtedness, to avoid the requirement to make a Senior Notes repurchase offer with respect to the proceeds from the sale of Fairbanks Morse.

Share Repurchase Program
In October 2017, our board of directors authorized a new program for the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common shares. During 2018, we repurchased 0.7 million shares for $50.0 million under this program.
In October 2018, our board of directors authorized a two-year program for expenditures of up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common shares. Prior to the expiration of this authorization in October 2020, we repurchased a total of 0.3 million shares for $20.3 million, of which we repurchased 0.1 million shares for $5.3 million in 2020 and we repurchased 0.2 million shares for $15.0 million in 2019.
In October of 2020, our board of directors authorized a new two-year program of up to $50.0 million for the repurchased of our outstanding common shares through October 2022. We have not made any repurchases under the new authorization.
Dividends
On January 13, 2015, our board of directors adopted a policy under which it intends to declare regular quarterly cash dividends on EnPro’s common stock, with the determination of whether to declare a dividend and the amount being considered each quarter, after taking into account our cash flow, earnings, cash position, financial position and other relevant matters. In 2020, our board declared a dividend of $0.26 per share in each quarter, and on February 17, 2021 we announced that our board of directors had increased the quarterly dividend to $0.27 per share, commencing with the dividend to be paid on March 17, 2021 to all shareholders of record as of March 3, 2021. Each of the Credit Agreement and the indenture governing the Senior Notes includes covenants restricting the payment of dividends, but includes a basket permitting the payment of cash dividends of up to $50.0 million per year under the Credit Agreement and $60.0 million per year under the indenture governing the Senior Notes. Other baskets may be available under that the agreement governing the Revolving Credit Facility and the indenture governing the Senior Notes to permit the payment of dividends in excess of the respective basket amount.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures pertaining to contingent assets and liabilities. Note 1, “Overview, Basis of Presentation, Significant Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies used to prepare the Consolidated Financial Statements and recently issued accounting guidance. On an ongoing basis we evaluate our estimates, including, but not limited to, those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, restructuring, pensions and other postretirement benefits, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from our estimates.
We believe the following accounting policies and estimates are the most critical. Some of them involve significant judgments and uncertainties and could potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions.
Revenue Recognition
Our largest stream of revenue is product revenue for shipments of the various products discussed further in Note 19, "Business Segment Information", to our consolidated financial statements, along with a smaller amount of revenue from services that take place over a short period of time. We recognize revenue at a point in time following the transfer of control, which typically occurs when a product is shipped or delivered, depending on the terms of the sale agreement, or when services are rendered. Shipping costs billed to customers are recognized as revenue and expensed in cost of goods sold as a fulfillment cost when control of the product transfers to the customer. Payment from customers is typically due within 30 days of the sale for sales in the U.S. For sales outside of the U.S., payment terms may be longer based upon local business customs, but are typically due no later than 90 days after the sale.
Pensions and Postretirement Benefits
We and certain of our subsidiaries sponsor domestic and foreign defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. Major assumptions used in the accounting for these employee benefit plans include the discount rate, expected return on plan assets, rate of increase in employee compensation levels and assumed health care cost trend rates. Assumptions are determined based on data available to us and appropriate market indicators, and are evaluated each year as of the plans’ measurement date. A change in any of these assumptions could have a material effect on net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs
38


reported in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, as well as amounts recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 15, "Pensions and Postretirement Benefits," to the consolidated financial statements for a discussion of pension and postretirement benefits.
Income Taxes
We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Temporary differences arising between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its carrying amount on the Consolidated Balance Sheet are used to calculate future income tax assets or liabilities. This method also requires the recognition of deferred tax benefits, such as net operating loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances are recorded as appropriate to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount considered likely to be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income (losses) in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment of the change. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is recognized only if we believe it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on its technical merits. If the recognition threshold for the tax position is met, only the portion of the tax benefit that we believe is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized is recorded.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
We do not amortize goodwill, but instead it is subject to annual impairment testing. The goodwill asset impairment test involves comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a second step of comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill to the carrying amount of that goodwill is required to measure the potential goodwill impairment loss.
To estimate the fair value of our reporting units, we use both discounted cash flow and market valuation approaches. The discounted cash flow approach uses cash flow projections to calculate the fair value of each reporting unit while the market approach relies on market multiples of similar companies. There are inherent assumptions and estimates used in developing future cash flows which require management to apply judgment to the analysis of goodwill impairment, including projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates and tax rates. For the market approach, we chose a group of peer companies we believe are representative of each respective reporting unit. We used a 75% weighting for the discounted cash flow valuation approach and a 25% weighting for the market valuation approach, reflecting our belief that the discounted cash flow valuation approach provides a better indicator of value since it reflects the specific cash flows anticipated to be generated in the future by the business.
As a result of the formation of our Advanced Surface Technologies segment and the transition of a portion of our Technetics reporting unit from the Sealing Technologies segment to the Advanced Surface Technologies segment, our Technetics reporting unit was tested for impairment both before and after the allocation of goodwill and the newly formed Semiconductor reporting unit (our LeanTeq and Technetics semiconductor business) was tested after the allocation. We determined that the Technetics reporting unit was not impaired prior to the transfer of goodwill. After the transfer, the Technetics reporting unit was allocated $67.7 million of goodwill and, as of our allocation date of December 1, 2020, we determined it was not impaired as its fair value exceeded its carrying value by 26%. We also determined that our Semiconductor reporting unit, allocated $180.1 million of goodwill as of our allocation date of December 1, 2020, was not impaired and its fair value exceeded its carrying value by 2%. Any change in assumptions, including forecasted performance or external market information used in our fair value calculation, including the determination of our discount rate, could result in a future impairment of our Semiconductor reporting unit.
We will continue to monitor the Semiconductor reporting unit's performance as well as other market factors and test for impairment if we determine a triggering event has occurred. All other reporting units were tested at our annual test date of October 1, 2020 and their fair value exceeded their carrying value by at least 20%. We will test all reporting units again at our next test date of October 1, 2021, or earlier as circumstances may require.
The fair value of intangible assets associated with acquisitions is determined using an income valuation approach. Projecting discounted future cash flows requires us to make significant estimates regarding projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates, attrition rates, royalty rates, obsolescence rates and tax rates.
Many of the factors used in assessing fair value are outside the control of management, and it is reasonably likely that assumptions and estimates will change in future periods. These changes could result in future impairments. For additional information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview and Outlook” as well as Notes 1 and 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Impact of Pending Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1, "Overview, Basis of Presentation, Significant Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance," to our consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recently issued accounting guidance that we have not yet adopted.
Contingencies
General
A description of certain environmental and other legal matters relating to certain of our subsidiaries is included in this section. In addition to the matters noted herein, we are from time to time subject to, and are presently involved in, other litigation and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe the outcome of such other litigation and legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Expenses for administrative and legal proceedings are recorded when incurred.
Environmental
Our facilities and operations are subject to federal, state and local environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations of the U.S. and foreign countries. We take a proactive approach in our efforts to comply with these laws and regulations as they relate to our manufacturing operations and in proposing and implementing any remedial plans that may be necessary. We also regularly conduct comprehensive environmental, health and safety audits at our facilities to maintain compliance and improve operational efficiency.
Although we believe past operations were in substantial compliance with the then applicable regulations, we or one or more of our subsidiaries are involved with various remediation activities or an investigation to determine responsibility for environmental conditions at 20 sites. At 14 of these 20 sites, the future cost per site for us or our subsidiary is expected to exceed $100,000. Of these 20 sites, 18 are sites where we or one or more of our subsidiaries formerly conducted business operations but no longer do, and 2 are sites where we conduct manufacturing operations. Investigations have been completed for 16 of the 20 sites and are in progress at 3 sites. An investigation to determine responsibility for environmental conditions is ongoing at one site.
Our policy is to accrue environmental investigation and remediation costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. For sites with multiple future projected cost scenarios for identified feasible investigation and remediation options where no one estimate is more likely than all the others, our policy is to accrue the lowest estimate among the range of estimates. The measurement of the liability is based on an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to each individual situation and takes into consideration factors such as existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations and prior experience in the remediation of similar contaminated sites. Liabilities are established for all sites based on these factors. As assessments and remediation progress at individual sites, these liabilities are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical data and legal information. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had accrued liabilities aggregating $42.2 million and $36.0 million, respectively, for estimated future expenditures relating to environmental contingencies. These amounts have been recorded on an undiscounted basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Given the uncertainties regarding the status of laws, regulations, enforcement policies, the impact of other parties potentially being fully or partially liable, technology and information related to individual sites, we do not believe it is possible to develop an estimate of the range of reasonably possible environmental loss in excess of our recorded liabilities.
During the fourth quarter of 2020, new information became available that enabled us to develop and refine estimated costs of future remediation at the following sites:
Water Valley. EnPro Holdings has been managing trichloroethylene soil and groundwater contamination at the site in Water Valley, Mississippi in connection with the former operation in the 1970s and 1980s by a corporate predecessor of a plant located at the site, which plant was divested to BorgWarner, Inc. ("BorgWarner") in 1996. The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) issued orders against EnPro Holdings requiring evaluation of potential vapor intrusion into residential properties and commercial facilities located over the groundwater plume as well as requiring additional groundwater investigation and remediation. All of the work to be performed at the residential area, the plant and off-site is set forth in an agreed Order that we and MDEQ entered into on September 11, 2017 and we established reserves with respect to the liability associated with the anticipated remediation. Based upon then limited information regarding any incremental remediation or other actions that may be required at the site, we were unable to estimate any further loss or a reasonably possible range of loss related to this matter. During the quarter ended
40


December 31, 2020, we received the results from groundwater and vapor sampling under the plant building, which results provided a basis to estimate the costs to remediate the contamination under the building, and we received approval of the design for the remediation system to be operated in the area of contamination behind the building, which approval allowed for updating of previously estimated construction and operating and maintenance costs. Based on this information, we increased the reserve for Water Valley by $12.5 million, to $15.6 million at December 31, 2020, to reflect the minimum of a range of reasonably likely scenarios to effect the remediation of the contamination under the building and the other areas where contamination is located. The total expense related to third-party claim settlements and remediation of the Water Valley site in calendar 2020, including reserve adjustments related to remediation, was $26.5 million. Total cash payments related to third-party claim settlements and remediation at Water Valley was $20.1 million in 2020. The final selection of the remediation option and design of the remedial system to address contamination under the building is subject to MDEQ approval. We are not able at this time to estimate the upper end of a range of liability with respect to the reasonably likely scenarios to effect remediation at this site.
Arizona Uranium Mines. EnPro Holdings has received notices from the EPA asserting that it is a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA") as the successor to a former operator of eight uranium mines in Arizona. The former operator conducted operations at the mines from 1954 to 1957. In the 1990s, remediation work performed by others at these sites consisted of capping the exposed areas of the mines. We have previously reserved amounts of probable loss associated with these mines, principally including the cost of the investigative work to be conducted at such mines. We entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Interim Removal Action with the EPA effective November 7, 2017 for the performance of this work. The balance in these reserves as of September 30, 2020 was $1.0 million. During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the EPA initiated group discussions with EnPro Holdings and other potentially responsible parties to resolve various technical issues, including the development of cleanup standards. Based on these discussions and subsequent discussions with other responsible parties with similar sites, we have concluded that further remedial work beyond maintenance of and minor repairs to the existing caps is probable, and we have evaluated the feasibility of various remediation scenarios. As a result, we increased the reserve for these sites by $12.9 million to $13.9 million at December 31, 2020, to reflect the low end of the range of our reasonably likely liability with respect to these sites. The expected contribution of $3.8 million from the U.S. government towards remediation of the site is considered probable and is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020. We are not able at this time to estimate the upper end of a range of liability with respect to these sites.
Pine Bluff. For several years, we have been operating a groundwater remediation system at the site of an electrical transformer facility in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, which facility was sold by a corporate predecessor of EnPro Holdings in 1994. Pursuant to the terms of the sale agreement, EnPro Holdings, as the corporate successor has responsibility for pre-closing environmental conditions at the site and the existing remediation system at the site had been approved by the Arkansas Division of Environmental Quality (the “ADEQ”). During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, at the initiation of the ADEQ, we conducted further sampling and technical reviews to determine whether part of the contamination was migrating off-site that was not being captured by the existing remediation system. Based on all the sampling results received and reviewed, we concluded that modifications to the remediation program will be required. Based on this information, we increased the reserve for the Pine Bluff site by $2.8 million, to $2.8 million at December 31, 2020, to reflect the low end of the range of our reasonably likely liability with respect to this site. Total cash payments in calendar year 2020 were $0.9 million. We are not able at this time to estimate the upper end of a range of liability with respect to this site.
We believe that our accruals for specific environmental liabilities are adequate for those liabilities based on currently available information. Based upon limited information regarding any incremental remediation or other actions that may be required at these sites, we cannot estimate any further loss or a reasonably possible range of loss related to these matters. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from estimates because of the inherent uncertainties in evaluating environmental exposures due to unknown and changing conditions, changing government regulations and legal standards regarding liability.
Based on our prior ownership of Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc. (“Crucible”), we may have additional contingent liabilities in one or more significant environmental matters. One such matter, which is included in the 20 sites referred to above, is the Lower Passaic River Study Area of the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site in New Jersey. Crucible operated a steel mill abutting the Passaic River in Harrison, New Jersey from the 1930s until 1974, which was one of many industrial operations on the river dating back to the 1800s. Certain contingent environmental liabilities related to this site were retained by a predecessor of our EnPro Holdings Inc. subsidiary (which, including its corporate predecessors is referred to as "EnPro Holdings") when it sold a majority interest in Crucible Materials Corporation (the successor of Crucible) in 1985. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) notified our subsidiary in September 2003 that it is a potentially
41


responsible party (“PRP”) for Superfund response actions in the lower 17-mile stretch of the Passaic River known as the Lower Passaic River Study Area.
EnPro Holdings and approximately 70 of the numerous other PRPs, known as the Cooperating Parties Group, are parties to a May 2007 Administrative Order on Consent with the EPA to perform a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) of the contaminants in the Lower Passaic River Study Area. In September 2018, EnPro Holdings withdrew from the Cooperating Parties Group but remains a party to the May 2007 Administrative Order on Consent. The RI/FS was completed and submitted to the EPA at the end of April 2015. The RI/FS recommends a targeted dredge and cap remedy with monitored natural recovery and adaptive management for the Lower Passaic River Study Area. The cost of such remedy is estimated to be $726 million. Previously, on April 11, 2014, the EPA released its Focused Feasibility Study (the “FFS”) with its proposed plan for remediating the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area. The FFS calls for bank-to-bank dredging and capping of the riverbed of that portion of the river and estimates a range of the present value of aggregate remediation costs of approximately $953 million to approximately $1.73 billion, although estimates of the costs and the timing of costs are inherently imprecise. On March 3, 2016, the EPA issued the final Record of Decision (ROD) as to the remedy for the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, with the maximum estimated cost being reduced by the EPA from $1.73 billion to $1.38 billion, primarily due to a reduction in the amount of cubic yards of material that will be dredged. In October 2016, Occidental Chemical Corporation, the successor to the entity that operated the Diamond Alkali chemical manufacturing facility, reached an agreement with the EPA to develop the design for this proposed remedy at an estimated cost of $165 million. The EPA has estimated that it will take approximately four years to develop this design. On June 30, 2018, Occidental Chemical Corporation sued over 120 parties, including the Company, in the United States District Court for New Jersey seeking recovery of response costs under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA
No final allocations of responsibility have been made among the numerous PRPs that have received notices from the EPA, there are numerous identified PRPs that have not yet received PRP notices from the EPA, and there are likely many PRPs that have not yet been identified. In September 2017, EPA hired a third-party allocator to develop an allocation of costs among a large number of the parties identified by EPA as having potential responsibility, including the Company. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the third-party allocator issued his report, which determined the range for EnPro's liability to be between $35,000 and $950,000.
Based on our evaluation of the site, during 2014 we accrued a liability of $3.5 million related to environmental remediation costs associated with the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, which was our estimate of the low end of a range of reasonably possible costs, with no estimate within the range being a better estimate than the minimum. Since 2015, we incurred $0.9 million in remediation costs. Based on the third party allocator's report, on December 31, 2020 we reduced the reserve to $1.6 million. Our future remediation costs could be significantly greater than the $1.0 million accrual at December 31, 2020. With respect to the upper nine miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, we are unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible costs.
Except with respect to the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, we are unable to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss related to any other contingent environmental liability based on our prior ownership of Crucible.
See Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our environmental contingencies and see the following section titled “Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc.”
Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc.
Crucible, which was engaged primarily in the manufacture and distribution of high technology specialty metal products, was a wholly owned subsidiary of EnPro Holdings until 1983 when its assets and liabilities were distributed to a new subsidiary, Crucible Materials Corporation. EnPro Holdings sold a majority of the outstanding shares of Crucible Materials Corporation in 1985 and divested its remaining minority interest in 2004. Crucible Materials Corporation filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in May 2009 and is no longer conducting operations.
We have certain ongoing obligations, which are included in other liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, including workers’ compensation, retiree medical and other retiree benefit matters, in addition to those mentioned previously related to EnPro Holdings' period of ownership of Crucible. Based on EnPro Holdings' prior ownership of Crucible, we may have certain additional contingent liabilities, including liabilities in one or more significant environmental matters included in the matters discussed in “Environmental” above. We are investigating these matters. Except with respect to those matters for which we have an accrued liability as discussed in “Environmental” above, we are unable to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss related to these contingent liabilities. See Note 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information about certain liabilities relating to EnPro Holdings' ownership of Crucible.

Warranties
We provide warranties on many of our products. The specific terms and conditions of these warranties vary depending on the product and the market in which the product is sold. We record a liability based upon estimates of the costs we may incur under our warranties based upon a review of historical warranty experience and information regarding the number, nature, and dollar valuation of specific warranty claims being made by customers. Adjustments are made to the liability as claims data and historical experience necessitate.
Changes in the carrying amount of the product warranty liability for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are as follows:
202020192018
 (in millions)
Balance at beginning of year$10.1 $9.4 $2.7 
Charges to expense1.4 5.8 10.1 
Settlements made (4.8)(5.1)(3.4)
Balance at end of year$6.7 $10.1 $9.4 
Asbestos Insurance Receivables
The historical business operations of certain of our subsidiaries resulted in a substantial volume of asbestos litigation in which plaintiffs alleged personal injury or death as a result of exposure to asbestos fibers. In 2010, certain of these subsidiaries, including Garlock Sealing Technologies, LLC ("GST"), filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North Carolina (the "Bankruptcy Court"). An additional subsidiary filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition with the Bankruptcy Court in 2017. The filings were part of a claims resolution process for an efficient and permanent resolution of all pending and future asbestos claims through court approval of a plan of reorganization to establish a facility to resolve and pay these asbestos claims.
These claims against GST and other subsidiaries were resolved pursuant to a joint plan of reorganization (the "Joint Plan") filed with the Bankruptcy Court which was consummated on July 29, 2017. Under the Joint Plan, GST and EnPro Holdings retained their rights to seek reimbursement under insurance policies for any amounts they have paid in the past to resolve asbestos claims, including contributions made to the asbestos claims resolution trust established under the Joint Plan (the "Trust"). These policies include a number of primary and excess general liability insurance policies that were purchased by EnPro Holdings and were in effect prior to January 1, 1976 (the “Pre-GST Coverage Block”). The policies provide coverage for “occurrences” happening during the policy periods and cover losses associated with product liability claims against EnPro Holdings and certain of its subsidiaries. Asbestos claims against GST are not covered under these policies because GST was not a subsidiary of EnPro Holdings prior to 1976. The Joint Plan provides that EnPro Holdings may retain the first $25 million of any settlements and judgments collected for non-GST asbestos claims related to insurance policies in the Pre-GST Coverage Block and EnPro Holdings and the Trust will share equally in any settlements and judgments EnPro Holdings may collect in excess of $25 million. To date, EnPro Holdings has collected almost $22 million in settlements for non-GST asbestos claims related to the Pre-GST Coverage Block and anticipates further collections once the Trust begins making claims payments on non-GST Claims.
As of December 31, 2020, approximately $4.2 million of available products hazard limits or insurance receivables existed under primary and excess general liability insurance policies other than the Pre-GST Coverage Block (the "GST Coverage Block") from solvent carriers, which we believe is available to cover contributions made to the Trust under the Joint Plan as the Trust uses those contributions to pay GST asbestos claims covered by policies in the GST Coverage Block. There are specific agreements in place with carriers regarding the remaining available coverage. We believe that all of the $4.2 million of insurance proceeds will ultimately be collected, although there can be no assurance that the insurance companies will make the payments as and when due. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we billed an insurer in the GST Coverage Block $0.8 million for GST Claims paid by the Trust to date.
We also believe that EnPro Holdings will bill, and could collect over time, as much as $10 million of insurance coverage for non-GST asbestos claims to reimburse it for Trust payments to non-GST Trust claimants. After EnPro Holdings collects the first approximately $3 million of that coverage, remaining collections for non-GST asbestos claims from the Pre-Garlock Coverage Block will be shared equally with the Trust.
GST has received $8.8 million of insurance recoveries from insolvent carriers since 2007 and may receive additional payments from insolvent carriers in the future. No anticipated insolvent carrier collections are included in the $4.2 million of
43


anticipated collections. The insurance available to cover current and future asbestos claims is from comprehensive general liability and excess liability policies that cover EnPro Holdings and certain of its other subsidiaries in addition to GST for periods prior to 1985 and therefore could be subject to potential competing claims of other covered subsidiaries and their assignees.

Other liabilities3.2 0.5 1.0 1.0 0.7 
Total$720.1 $50.8 $82.2 $189.1 $398.0 
The payments for long-term debt shown in the table above reflect the contractual principal amount for the Senior Notes. In our Consolidated Balance Sheet, this amount is shown net of a debt discount of $4.1 million. Additional discussion regarding the Senior Notes is included in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Capital Resources,” and in Note 12, "Long-Term Debt," to the consolidated financial statements. The interest on long-term debt represents the contractual interest coupon. It does not include the debt discount accretion, which also is a component of interest expense.

The payments for long-term debt do not include approximately $10 million of excess net cash proceeds from the sale of Fairbanks Morse that had not been reinvested in acquisitions, applied in making capital expenditures, or used to repay or otherwise reduce specified indebtedness, including the borrowings under the Term Loan Facility, at December 31, 2020, which amount, if not so reinvested, applied or used by the April 25, 2021 measurement date would require us to repurchase at par value Senior Notes of an equal aggregate principal amount pursuant to a tender offer that would be required to be made by us under the indenture governing the Senior Notes, but only to the extent that holders of the Senior Notes agreed to sell their Senior Notes in such a tender offer. We expect investments to be made in 2021 prior to April 25, 2021, primarily through capital expenditures, to exceed $10 million, which would avoid the requirement to conduct such a tender offer. In the event that our 2021 investments prior to that date are less than $10 million, we have the ability to, at our option, prepay the Term Loan Facility by any remaining excess cash proceeds to avoid the requirement to make such a tender offer. We do not anticipate the need to prepay the borrowings under the Term Loan Facility.
Payments for other liabilities are estimates for other retained liabilities of previously owned businesses included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2020. These estimated payments, along with our estimated payments of environmental liabilities, are based on information currently known to us. However, it is possible that these estimates will vary from actual results and it is possible that these estimates may be updated if new information becomes available in the future or if there are changes in the facts and circumstances related to these liabilities. Additional discussion regarding these liabilities is included earlier in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in “Contingencies – Environmental" and "Contingencies – Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc.,” and in Note 20, "Commitments and Contingencies," to the consolidated financial statements.
The table does not include obligations under our pension and postretirement benefit plans, which are included in Note 15, "Pension and Postretirement Benefits," to the consolidated financial statements.
Supplemental Guarantor Financial Information
On October 17, 2018, we completed the offering of the Senior Notes and applied the net proceeds of that offering, together with borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, to redeem all of the Old Notes on October 31, 2018. The Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured, unsubordinated, joint and several basis by our existing and future wholly owned direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries, that are each guarantors of our Revolving Credit Facility, including subsidiaries that were wholly owned at the time they provided the guarantee but thereafter became majority owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”).  The Guarantor Subsidiaries at December 31, 2020 comprise all of our
44


consolidated domestic subsidiaries at that date. Our subsidiaries organized outside of the United States, (collectively, the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”) did not guarantee the Old Notes and do not guarantee the Senior Notes.

The Guarantor Subsidiaries jointly and severally guarantee on an unsecured, unsubordinated basis the performance and punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity of the Senior Notes, by acceleration or otherwise, all of our obligations under the Senior Notes and the indenture governing the Senior Notes (the “Indenture”), whether for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Senior Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise (all such obligations guaranteed by the Guarantor Subsidiaries are referred to as the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The Guarantor Subsidiaries have jointly and severally agreed to pay, in addition to the obligations stated above, any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the trustee (the “Trustee”) under the Indenture in enforcing any rights under their guarantees of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Each guarantee of a Guarantor Subsidiary is limited to an amount not to exceed the maximum amount that can be guaranteed by it without rendering the guarantee, as it relates to such Guarantor Subsidiary, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer or similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally. Each guarantee of a Guarantor Subsidiary is a continuing guarantee and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Trustee, the holders of the Senior Notes and their successors, transferees and assigns and, subject to the provisions described in the following sentence, remains in full force and effect until payment in full of all of the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor Subsidiary and is binding upon such Guarantor Subsidiary and its successors. A guarantee of the Senior Notes by a Guarantor Subsidiary is subject to release in the following circumstances: (i) the sale, disposition, exchange or other transfer (including through merger, consolidation, amalgamation or otherwise) of the capital stock of the subsidiary made in a manner not in violation of the Indenture; (ii) the designation of the subsidiary as an “Unrestricted Subsidiary” under the Indenture; (iii) the legal defeasance or covenant defeasance of the Senior Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture; or (iv) the subsidiary ceasing to be our subsidiary as a result of any foreclosure of any pledge or security interest securing our Revolving Credit Facility or other exercise of remedies in respect thereof.
The following tables present summarized financial information for EnPro Industries, Inc. (the "Parent") and the Guarantor Subsidiaries on a combined basis after intercompany eliminations.

The table above reflects $11.8 million of current intercompany receivables due to the Guarantor Subsidiaries from the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries and $4.4 million of current intercompany payables due to the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries from the Guarantor Subsidiaries within current assets and liabilities held and used.

The Senior Notes are structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. The Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay any amounts due pursuant to the Senior Notes or the Indenture, or to make any funds available therefor, whether by dividends, loans, distributions or other payments. Any right that the Company or the Guarantor Subsidiaries have to receive any assets of any of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries upon the liquidation or reorganization of any Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, and the consequent rights of holders of Senior Notes to realize proceeds from the sale of any of a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary’s assets, would be effectively subordinated to the claims of such Non-Guarantor Subsidiary’s creditors, including trade creditors and holders of preferred equity interests, if any, of such Non-Guarantor Subsidiary. Accordingly, in the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of any of the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries will pay the holders of their debts, holders of preferred equity interests, if any, and their trade creditors before they will be able to distribute any of their assets to the Company or any Guarantor Subsidiaries.
If a Guarantor Subsidiary were to become a debtor in a case under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or encounter other financial difficulty, under federal or state fraudulent transfer or conveyance law, a court may avoid, subordinate or otherwise decline to enforce its guarantee of the Senior Notes. A court might do so if it is found that when such Guarantor Subsidiary entered into its guarantee of the Senior Notes, or in some states when payments became due under the Senior Notes, such Guarantor Subsidiary received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration and either:
was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of such incurrence;
 
was left with unreasonably small or otherwise inadequate capital to conduct our business; or
believed or reasonably should have believed that it would incur debts beyond its ability to pay.
The court might also avoid the guarantee of the Senior Notes without regard to the above factors, if the court found that the Guarantor Subsidiary entered into its guarantee with actual intent to hinder, delay or defraud our creditors.
A court would likely find that a Guarantor Subsidiary did not receive reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for its guarantee of the Senior Notes, if such Guarantor Subsidiary did not substantially benefit directly or indirectly from the funding made available by the issuance of the Senior Notes. If a court were to avoid a guarantee of the Senior Notes provided by a Guarantor Subsidiary, holders of the Senior Notes would no longer have any claim against such Guarantor Subsidiary. The measures of insolvency for purposes of these fraudulent transfer or conveyance laws will vary depending upon the law applied in any proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer or conveyance has occurred, such that we cannot predict what standards a court would use to determine whether or not a Guarantor Subsidiary was solvent at the relevant time or, regardless of the standard that a court uses, that the guarantee of a Guarantor Subsidiary would not be subordinated to such Guarantor Subsidiary’s other debt. As noted above, each guarantee provided by a Guarantor Subsidiary includes a provision intended to limit the Guarantor Subsidiary’s liability to the maximum amount that it could incur without causing the incurrence of obligations under its guarantee to be a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. This provision may not be effective to protect those guarantees from being avoided under fraudulent transfer or conveyance law, or it may reduce that Guarantor Subsidiary’s obligation to an amount that effectively makes its guarantee worthless, and we cannot predict whether a court will ultimately find it to be effective.
On the basis of historical financial information, operating history and other factors, we believe that each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries, after giving effect to the issuance of its guarantee of the Senior Notes when such guarantee was issued, was not insolvent, did not have unreasonably small capital for the business in which it engaged and did not and has not incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature. We cannot assure you, however, as to what standard a court would apply in making these determinations or that a court would agree with our conclusions in this regard.

Reconciliations of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the Comparable GAAP Measures

Reconciliation of Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations Attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc.
We believe that it would be helpful to the readers of the financial statements to understand the impact of certain selected items on our reported income from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. and diluted earnings per share attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. continuing operations, including items that may recur from time to time. The items
46


adjusted for in this schedule are those that are excluded by management in budgeting or projecting for performance in future periods, as they typically relate to events specific to the period in which they occur. This presentation is intended to permit readers to better compare the Company to other diversified industrial manufacturing companies that do not incur the sporadic impact of restructuring activities, costs associated with previously disposed of businesses, or other selected items. We acknowledge that there are many items that impact a company's reported results and this list is not intended to present all items that may have impacted these results.
A reconciliation of (i) income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes to adjusted income from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc., and (ii) net income (loss) from continuing operations attributable to EnPro Industries, Inc. to adjusted EBITDA for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are as follows:

1 Non-controlling interest compensation allocation represents compensation expense associated with a portion of the rollover equity from the acquisitions of LeanTeq and Alluxa that is subject to reduction for certain types of employment terminations of the LeanTeq Executive Officers and the Alluxa Executive Officers sellers and is directly related to the terms of the respective acquisition. This expense will continue to be recognized as compensation expense over the term of the put and call options associated with the acquisition unless certain employment terminations have occurred.
Adjusted EBITDA as presented in the table above also represents the amount defined as "EBITDA" under the indenture governing the Senior Notes.
ITEM 7A.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to certain market risks as part of our ongoing business operations, including risks from changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates that could affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We manage our exposure to these and other market risks through normal operating and financing activities and through the use
50


of derivative financial instruments. We intend to use derivative financial instruments as risk management tools and not for speculative investment purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk as a result of our outstanding debt obligations. The table below provides information about our fixed rate debt obligations as of December 31, 2020. The table represents principal cash flows (in millions) and related weighted average interest rates by expected (contractual) maturity dates.

Additionally, we had $145.4 million of outstanding borrowings on our term loan as of December 31, 2020, which has variable interest rates. A change in interest rates on variable-rate debt affects the interest incurred and cash flows, but does not affect the net financial instrument position. The outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility were repaid on January 22, 2020 with a portion of the gross proceeds from the sale of Fairbanks Morse.
Foreign Currency Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency risks arising from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of our foreign subsidiaries, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Our objective is to control our exposure to these risks and limit the volatility in our reported earnings due to foreign currency fluctuations through our normal operating activities and, where appropriate, through foreign currency forward contracts and option contracts. The notional amount of foreign exchange contracts hedging foreign currency transactions was $3.3 million and $5.2 million as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Commodity Risk
We source a wide variety of materials and components from a network of global suppliers. While such materials are typically available from numerous suppliers, commodity raw materials such as steel, engineered plastics, copper and polymers, are subject to price fluctuations, which could have a negative impact on our results. We strive to pass along such commodity price increases to customers to avoid profit margin erosion and utilize lean initiatives to further mitigate the impact of commodity raw material price fluctuations as we achieve improved efficiencies. We do not hedge commodity risk with any market risk sensitive instruments.

ITEM 9A.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). The purpose of our disclosure controls and procedures is to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, including this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management does not expect our disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls to prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with polices or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Based on the controls evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2020 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies and procedures may deteriorate.
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on our assessment, we have concluded, as of December 31, 2020, our internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
This assessment did not include the acquisition of Alluxa because it was acquired in a purchase business combination in 2020. Alluxa's assets (excluding goodwill and intangible assets, which were subject to our assessment) and total revenues of Alluxa, a majority-owned subsidiary, represented approximately 2% and 1% of our total assets and revenue, respectively, of the consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Remediation of Previously Disclosed Material Weakness
During 2019, management concluded there was a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting with respect to the design and maintenance of controls over the accounting for income taxes.

Specifically, we did not design and maintain effective controls to (1) sufficiently review and validate information received from foreign subsidiaries in their year-end tax packages, including adjustments made to the packages in consolidation, which are used in the determination of the completeness and accuracy of our consolidated provision for income taxes and (2) sufficiently review the completeness and accuracy of input data used in calculation of an annual federal tax which became effective in 2018 under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted in December 2017, (the "Tax Act") and certain recurring tax credits.

Management completed the following to address the material weakness:

Implemented a new comprehensive income tax provision model for foreign jurisdictions.
Designed and implemented new key controls, and enhanced the design of existing controls, for the interim and year-end provision processes.
Designed and implemented new controls around the foreign tax provision model review process and required levels of review.
Designed and implemented new controls around data validation for special taxes, credits, overall provision data used and related review and sign-off of the foreign tax provision model by foreign jurisdictions and the corporate tax function.
Implemented the use of detailed process narratives and checklists for use in the preparation and review of the tax provision calculations.
Implemented standardized documentation requirements for review and approval of tax provision calculations.
Enhanced controls and required analytics related to effective tax rate reconciliations by entity, country and in consolidation.

As a result of these remediation efforts and based on testing of the newly designed and enhanced controls for operating effectiveness, management concluded that the material weakness related to accounting for income taxes has been remediated as of December 31, 2020.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 that materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of EnPro Industries, Inc.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of EnPro Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of changes in shareholders’ equity, and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020, including the related notes and financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2020 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.

Change in Accounting Principle

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for leases in 2019.

Basis for Opinions

The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management has excluded Alluxa, Inc. from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020 because it was acquired by the Company in a purchase business combination during 2020. We have also excluded Alluxa, Inc. from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. Alluxa, Inc’s. total assets and total revenues excluded from management’s assessment and our audit of internal control over financial reporting represent approximately 2% and less than 1%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Interim Indefinite-Lived Impairment Assessment - Garlock Trademark

As described in Notes 1 and 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated indefinite-lived trademarks balance was $53.4 million as of December 31, 2020, of which a portion relates to the Garlock trademark. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are subject to at least annual impairment testing, conducted each year as of October 1, which compares the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying amount using the relief from royalty method. Interim tests may be required if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below the carrying value or change the useful life of the asset. In the third quarter of 2020, a triggering event was identified for the indefinite-lived trademarks within the Sealing Technologies segment, which includes the Garlock trademark. Based on the results of the interim impairment analysis, the Company recorded a $16.1 million impairment of indefinite-lived trademarks in the third quarter of 2020. Projecting discounted future cash flows requires management to make significant estimates regarding projected revenues and profit margins, discount rates, royalty rates, and tax rates.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the interim impairment assessment of the Garlock trademark is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when determining the fair value estimate of the Garlock trademark; (ii) the high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to projected revenues and the discount rate; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s indefinite-lived trademarks impairment assessment, including controls over the valuation of the Garlock trademark. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing management’s process for determining the fair value estimate; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the relief from royalty method; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in the fair value estimate; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to projected revenues and discount rate. Evaluating management’s assumption related to projected revenues involved evaluating whether the assumption was reasonable considering (i) current and past performance; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) whether this assumption was consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the relief from royalty method and (ii) the reasonableness of the significant assumption related to the discount rate.

Provision for Income Taxes - Completeness and Accuracy of Data

As described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company recorded a consolidated provision for income taxes from continuing operations of $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. As disclosed by management, the completeness and accuracy of the consolidated provision for income taxes is dependent on the completeness and accuracy of input data used in the calculation, including information received from foreign subsidiaries, including adjustments to the foreign subsidiaries’ year-end tax packages made as part of consolidation.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the completeness and accuracy of data used in the provision for income taxes is a critical audit matter are (i) the high degree of auditor subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating the audit evidence related to accounting for the provision for income taxes; and (ii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge. As disclosed by management, a material weakness existed during the year related to this matter.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s provision for income taxes, including controls over the completeness and accuracy of data used in the provision for income taxes. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing the provision for income taxes, including the rate reconciliation and certain return to provision adjustments; (ii) evaluating the completeness and accuracy of the underlying input data used in the calculation of the income tax provision, including certain information received from foreign subsidiaries; and (iii) evaluating permanent and temporary differences. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating the Company’s foreign provision for income taxes.

Acquisition of Alluxa, Inc. - Valuation of Definite-lived Intangible Assets

As described in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, in 2020, the Company completed the acquisition of Alluxa, Inc. for $238.4 million, net of cash acquired, plus rollover equity. Identifiable intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition were $132.3 million, consisting of definite-lived intangible assets, including customer relationships, proprietary technology, trade names, and non-competition agreements. The fair value of intangible assets associated with acquisitions is determined using an income valuation approach. Projecting discounted future cash flows requires management to make significant estimates regarding projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates, attrition rates, royalty rates, obsolescence rates, and tax rates.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of definite-lived intangible assets from the Alluxa, Inc. acquisition is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when determining the fair value estimates of the acquired definite-lived intangible assets; (ii) the high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to projected revenues and profit margins, discount rate, attrition rate, royalty rate, and obsolescence rate; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to business combinations, including controls over management’s valuation of definite-lived intangible assets. These procedures also included, among others, (i) reading the purchase agreement; (ii) testing management’s process for determining the fair values of the definite-lived intangible assets; (iii) evaluating the reasonableness of the income valuation approach; (iv) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in the fair value estimates; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to projected revenues and profit margins, discount rate, attrition rate, royalty rate, and obsolescence rate. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to projected revenues and profit margins involved evaluating whether the assumptions were reasonable considering (i) the current and past performance of Alluxa, Inc.; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) whether these assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the income valuation approach and (ii) the reasonableness of the significant assumptions related to the discount rate, attrition rate, royalty rate, and obsolescence rate.

Goodwill Impairment Assessments - Technetics Reporting Unit

As described in Notes 1 and 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated goodwill balance was $621.8 million as of December 31, 2020. Goodwill is subject to annual impairment testing conducted each year as of October 1. Interim tests may be required if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. The goodwill asset impairment test involves comparing the fair value of a

reporting unit to its carrying amount. Management would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. As a result of the business segment realignments, management tested the Technetics reporting unit for impairment before the allocation of goodwill, as well as on the annual date. After the transfer, the Technetics reporting unit was allocated $67.7 million of goodwill and the newly formed Semiconductor reporting unit was allocated $180.1 million of goodwill. To estimate the fair value of the reporting units, management uses both a discounted cash flow and market valuation approach. The key assumptions used for the discounted cash flow and market valuation approaches include projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates, tax rates, and market multiples.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the goodwill impairment assessments of the Technetics reporting unit is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when determining the fair value estimates of the reporting unit; (ii) the high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to projected revenues and profit margins, discount rate, and market multiples; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to management’s goodwill impairment assessments, including controls over the valuation of the Technetics reporting unit. These procedures also included, among others, (i) testing management’s process for determining the fair value estimates; (ii) evaluating the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow and market valuation approaches; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used in the fair value estimates; and (iv) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management related to projected revenues and profit margins, discount rate, and market multiples. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to projected revenues and profit margins involved evaluating whether the assumptions were reasonable considering (i) current and past performance; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) whether these assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow and market valuation approaches and (ii) the reasonableness of the significant assumptions related to the discount rate and market multiples.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.Overview, Basis of Presentation, Significant Accounting Policies and Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
Overview
EnPro Industries, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “EnPro” or the “Company”) is a leader in designing, developing, manufacturing, servicing, and marketing proprietary engineered industrial products and serve a wide variety of customers in varied industries around the world. Over the past year and a half, we have executed several strategic initiatives to change the portfolio of businesses that we operate to focus on materials science-based businesses with leading technologies, compelling margins, strong cash flow, and high levels of recurring revenue that serve markets with favorable secular tailwinds
Basis of Presentation
The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the accounts of the Company and our majority-owned and controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions between our consolidated operations have been eliminated.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures regarding contingent assets and liabilities at period end and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, we evaluated our internal reporting and determined to have a new segment as the result of internal reorganizations and the acquisition of Alluxa, Inc. ("Alluxa"). For more information on the acquisition of Alluxa, see Note 3, "Acquisitions and Dispositions". Our new segment, Advanced Surface Technologies, is comprised of Alluxa and our semiconductor businesses, comprised of LeanTeq and the Technetics semiconductor business, previously reported in our Sealing Technologies segment within our Technetics reporting unit. This change is reflected in all periods presented in Note 19, "Business Segment Information". The change also involved the transfer of $180.1 million of goodwill from the Sealing Technologies segment to our Advanced Surface Technologies segment. This change is reflected in all periods presented in Note 9, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets".
In the second quarter of 2020 we moved the oil and gas component of our Garlock Pipeline Technologies ("GPT") business from the Sealing Technologies segment to the Engineered Materials segment. This move allowed us to group our two oil and gas businesses, GPT and Compressor Products International, together to be managed as one business unit. This change is reflected in all periods presented in Note 19, "Business Segment Information". The change also involved the transfer of $5.8 million of goodwill from the Sealing Technologies segment to the Engineered Materials segment which is reflected in all periods presented in Note 9, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets".
In January 2020, we adopted a new accounting standard that changes how we measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income, including trade receivables. The standard requires us to estimate our lifetime “expected credit loss” for such assets at inception, and record an allowance that, when deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset, presents the net amount expected to be collected on the financial asset.
We applied a current expected credit loss model ("CECL") to our trade receivables. Given the nature of our trade receivables, a complex system to develop forward-looking models was not deemed necessary. Since our receivables are short-term, reasonable and supportable forecasted information was not readily available and our application of CECL relied on historical information and existing economic conditions. We will continue to monitor the collectability of our receivables as well as apply any supportable forecast information as it becomes available to make adjustments to our estimated reserve.
We applied our CECL model to our trade receivables at January 1, 2020 using a modified retrospective transition approach. Upon adoption, we recorded a $0.1 million increase to our allowance for credit losses with a corresponding decrease to retained earnings.
Additionally, in January 2020, we adopted a standard to simplify annual and interim goodwill impairment testing. Under the standard, we will perform our annual or interim goodwill impairment tests by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. We still have the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative
70


impairment test is necessary. Upon adoption, there was no impairment of goodwill recorded and this standard is applied following adoption on a prospective basis for all annual and interim goodwill impairment assessments.
In the first quarter of 2019, we adopted a standard that establishes principles to report transparent and economically neutral information about the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. The standard requires lessees to recognize the lease assets and lease liabilities that arise from all leases in the statement of financial position and to disclose qualitative and quantitative information about lease transactions, such as information about variable lease payments and options to renew and terminate leases. The standard retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. As a result, the effect of leases in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows is largely unchanged.
Additionally, the guidance provides clarification on the definition of a lease, including alignment of the concept of control of an asset with principles in other authoritative guidance around revenue recognition and consolidation. We adopted the new standard using the allowable option to apply the transition provisions of the new guidance at its adoption date without adjusting the comparative periods presented.
We evaluated the impact of applying practical expedients, and upon adoption we elected the package of practical expedients which permits us to not reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification, and initial direct costs. Additionally, we elected to not separate lease and non-lease components, we will not recognize an asset for leases with a term of twelve months or less, and we will apply a portfolio approach in determining discount rates.
Upon adoption of this standard, we recognized a right-of-use asset and a corresponding lease liability of approximately $27 million for our operating leases from continuing operations. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact to our Consolidated Statements of Operations or Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition – The largest stream of revenue is product revenue for shipments of the various products discussed further in Note 19, "Business Segment Information," along with a smaller amount of revenue from services that typically take place over a short period of time. We recognize revenue at a point in time following the transfer of control, which typically occurs when a product is shipped or delivered, depending on the terms of the sale agreement, or when services are rendered. Shipping costs billed to customers are recognized as revenue and expensed in cost of goods sold as a fulfillment cost when control of the product transfers to the customer. Payment from customers is typically due within 30 days of the sale for sales in the U.S. For sales outside of the U.S., payment terms may be longer based upon local business customs, but are typically due no later than 90 days after the sale.
At December 31, 2020, we had a backlog of orders of continuing operations valued at $212.5 million compared with $190.7 million at December 31, 2019. Approximately 6.1% of the backlog is expected to be filled beyond 2021. Backlog represents orders on hand we believe to be firm. However, there is no certainty the backlog orders will result in actual sales at the times or in the amounts ordered. In addition, for most of our business, backlog is not particularly predictive of future performance because of our short lead times and some seasonality.
Redeemable Non-Controlling Interests – Non-controlling interests in subsidiaries that are redeemable for cash or other assets outside of the our control are classified as mezzanine equity, outside of equity and liabilities, at the greater of the carrying value or the redemption value. The increases or decreases in the estimated redemption amount are recorded with corresponding adjustments against equity and are reflected in the computation of earnings per share.
Foreign Currency Translation – The financial statements of those operations whose functional currency is a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars using the current rate method. Under this method, all assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates, and income statement activities are translated using average exchange rates. The foreign currency translation adjustment is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Gains and losses on foreign currency transactions are included in operating income. Foreign currency transaction losses totaled $2.9 million, $3.0 million, and $0.6 million respectively, in 2020 and 2019, and 2018.
Research and Development Expense – Costs related to research and development activities are expensed as incurred. We perform research and development primarily under Company-funded programs for commercial products. Research and development expenditures in 2020, 2019, and 2018 were $15.2 million, $20.6 million, and $22.9 million, respectively, and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Income Taxes – We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Temporary differences arising between the tax basis of an asset or liability and its carrying amount on the Consolidated Balance Sheet are used to calculate future income tax assets or liabilities. This method also requires the recognition of deferred tax benefits, such as net operating
71


loss carryforwards. Valuation allowances are recorded as appropriate to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount considered likely to be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income (losses) in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment of the change. A tax benefit from an uncertain tax position is recognized only if we believe it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on its technical merits. If the recognition threshold for the tax position is met, only the portion of the tax benefit that we believe is greater than 50 percent likely to be realized is recorded.
The Tax Act provides for a territorial tax system, that includes the global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) provision beginning in 2018. The GILTI provisions require us to include in our U.S. income tax return certain current year foreign subsidiary earnings net of foreign tax credits, subject to limitation. We elected to account for the GILTI tax in the period in which it is incurred.
In December 2017, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued guidance to address the application of authoritative tax accounting guidance in situations where companies do not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act for the reporting period in which it was enacted. In these instances, the SEC's guidance allowed the recording of provisional amounts during a measurement period not to extend beyond one year of the enactment date. As the Tax Act was enacted at the end of 2017, and ongoing guidance and interpretation has been issued over the ensuing twelve months, we considered the impact of the transition tax, remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and other items recorded in our year-end income tax provision for the fourth quarter 2017 to be a provisional estimate and have further analyzed the year-end data and refined our calculations. The refinements to our provisional estimate were made in the third and fourth quarters of 2018 and we completed our accounting for the impact in the fourth quarter of 2018. Please see Note 5, "Income Taxes," for further information.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits and highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase.
Receivables – Accounts receivable are stated at the historical carrying amount net of write-offs and allowance for doubtful accounts. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based on historical experience and any specific customer collection issues we have identified. Doubtful accounts receivable are written off when a settlement is reached for an amount less than the outstanding historical balance or when we have determined the balance will not be collected.
Inventories – Certain domestic inventories are valued by the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) cost method. Inventories not valued by the LIFO method are valued using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost method, and are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Approximately 19% and 19% of inventories were valued by the LIFO method in 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Property, Plant and Equipment – Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation of plant and equipment is determined on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the assets: buildings and improvements, 5 to 25 years; machinery and equipment, 3 to 10 years.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets – Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets of acquired businesses. Goodwill is not amortized, but instead is subject to annual impairment testing conducted each year as of October 1. The goodwill asset impairment test involves comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying amount. We would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized would not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Interim tests may be required if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.
To estimate the fair value of our reporting units, we use both a discounted cash flow and market valuation approach. The discounted cash flow approach uses cash flow projections to calculate the fair value of each reporting unit while the market approach relies on market multiples of similar companies. The key assumptions used for the discounted cash flow approach include projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates and tax rates. For the market approach, we choose a group of peer companies we believe is best representative of each reporting unit. We used a 75% weighting for the discounted cash flow valuation approach and a 25% weighting for the market valuation approach, reflecting our belief that the discounted cash flow valuation approach provides a better indicator of a reporting unit's value since it reflects the specific cash flows anticipated to be generated in the future by the business.
As a result of the business segment realignment discussed in this footnote under "Basis of Presentation", our Technetics reporting unit was tested for impairment both before and after the allocation of goodwill and the newly formed Semiconductor reporting unit (the LeanTeq and Technetics semiconductor business) was tested after the allocation. We determined that the
72


Technetics reporting unit was not impaired prior to the transfer of goodwill. After the transfer, the Technetics reporting unit was allocated $67.7 million of goodwill and, as of our allocation date of December 1, 2020, we determined it was not impaired as its fair value exceeded its carrying value by 26%. We also determined that our Semiconductor reporting unit, allocated $180.1 million of goodwill as of our allocation date of December 1, 2020, was not impaired and its fair value exceeded its carrying value by 2%. Any change in assumptions, including forecasted performance or external market information used in our fair value calculation, including the determination of our discount rate, could result in a future impairment of our Semiconductor reporting unit. We will continue to monitor its performance as well as other market factors and test for impairment if we determine a triggering event has occurred. Also as a result of the transition of the oil and gas component of the GPT business, an interim goodwill impairment test was performed in the second quarter of 2020 for all reporting units and we determined that the carrying amount of our goodwill was not impaired either before or after the move.
We completed our required annual impairment tests of goodwill as of October 1, 2020, 2019 and 2018. These assessments did not indicate any impairment of the goodwill, and the fair values of each of our reporting units exceeded their carrying values by at least 20%, with the exception of our Semiconductor reporting unit discussed above. The most recent annual assessment as well as the interim goodwill impairment assessments discussed above were conducted in the context of information that was reasonably available to us, as well as our consideration of the future potential impacts of COVID-19 on our business. However, because of uncertainties at this time with respect to the severity and duration of the COVID-19 outbreak, the duration and terms of related governmental orders restricting activities, and the timing and pace of any economic recovery as COVID-19 impacts ultimately abate, we cannot predict with specificity the extent and duration of any future impact on our business and financial results from COVID-19. In addition, although most of our operations have been treated as “essential” operations under applicable government orders restricting business activities that have been issued to date, and accordingly have been permitted to continue to operate, it is possible that they may not continue to be so treated under future government orders, or, even if so treated, site-specific health and safety concerns might otherwise require certain of our operations to be halted for some period of time. Accordingly, if the impact is more severe or longer in duration than we have projected, such impact could potentially result in impairments of assets in future periods. We will test all reporting units again at our next test date of October 1, 2021, or earlier as circumstances may require.
Other intangible assets are recorded at cost or, when acquired as a part of a business combination, at estimated fair value. These assets include customer relationships, patents and other technology-related assets, trademarks, licenses and non-compete agreements. Intangible assets that have definite lives are amortized using a method that reflects the pattern in which the economic benefits of the assets are consumed or the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of 2 to 21 years. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are subject to at least annual impairment testing, conducted each year as of October 1, which compares the fair value of the intangible asset with its carrying amount using the relief from royalty method. Interim tests may be required if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below the carrying value or change the useful life of the asset.
In the third quarter of 2020, sales declines by businesses utilizing two of the indefinite-lived trademarks within our Sealing Technologies segment, primarily related to the Garlock trademark, were determined to be triggering events for an interim impairment analysis. Based on the results of this analysis, we recorded a $16.1 million impairment of indefinite-lived trademarks in the third quarter. In the fourth quarter of 2019 we determined our indefinite-lived Motorwheel trade name was impaired at December 31, 2019. We recorded a $7.9 million impairment charge and recorded the trade name at $2.1 million on our Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2019, which represented the fair-value of the asset. All assets of our Motorwheel business were subsequently divested in 2020.
Debt – Debt issuance costs associated with our senior secured revolving credit facility are presented as an asset and subsequently amortized into interest expense ratably over the term of the revolving debt arrangement. Debt issuance costs associated with any of our other debt instruments that are incremental third-party costs of issuing the debt are recognized as a reduction in the carrying value of the debt and amortized into interest expense over the time period to maturity using the interest method.
Derivative Instruments – We use derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to various risks. The use of these financial instruments modifies the exposure with the intent of reducing our risk. We do not use financial instruments for trading purposes, nor do we use leveraged financial instruments. The counterparties to these contractual arrangements are major financial institutions. We use multiple financial institutions for derivative contracts to minimize the concentration of credit risk. The current accounting rules require derivative instruments, excluding certain contracts that are issued and held by a reporting entity that are both indexed to its own stock and classified in shareholders’ equity, be reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value and that changes in a derivative’s fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met.

Fair Value Measurements – Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
We utilize a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect our own assumptions.
The fair value of intangible assets associated with acquisitions is determined using an income valuation approach. Projecting discounted future cash flows requires us to make significant estimates regarding projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates, attrition rates, royalty rates, obsolescence rates and tax rates. This non-recurring fair value measurement would be classified as Level 3 due to the absence of quoted market prices or observable inputs for assets of a similar nature.
We review the carrying amounts of long-lived assets when certain events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable.  An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of the asset group is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.  We estimate the fair values of assets subject to long-lived asset impairment based on our own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets. In doing so, we use a market approach when available or an income approach based upon discounted cash flows. The key assumptions used for the discounted cash flow approach include expected cash flows based on internal business plans, projected growth rates, discount rates, and royalty rates for certain intangible assets.  We classify these fair value measurements as Level 3.
Similarly, the fair value computations for the recurring impairment analyses of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets would be classified as Level 3 due to the absence of quoted market prices or observable inputs. The key assumptions used for the discounted cash flow approach include projected revenues and profit margins, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital, discount rates, tax rates and royalty rates for certain indefinite-lived intangible assets. Significant changes in any of those inputs could result in a significantly different fair value measurement.
Pensions and Postretirement Benefits - Amortization of the net gain or loss resulting from experience different from that assumed and from changes in assumptions is included as a component of benefit cost. If, as of the beginning of the year, that net gain or loss exceeds 10% of the greater of the projected benefit obligation or the market-related value of plan assets, the amortization is that excess divided by the average remaining service period of participating employees expected to receive benefits under the plan. We amortize prior service cost using the straight-line basis over the average future service life of active participants.
For segment reporting purposes, we allocate service cost to each location generating those costs. All other components of net periodic pension cost are reported in other (non-operating) expense.
Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
In December 2019, a standard was issued that will simplify the accounting for income taxes in nine unrelated areas. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on our consolidated financial statements.
2.Discontinued Operations
During the fourth quarter of 2019, we entered into an agreement to sell the Fairbanks Morse division, which comprised our entire Power Systems segment. The sale of Fairbanks Morse to an affiliate of funds managed by private equity firm Arcline Investment Management closed on January 21, 2020 for a sales price of $450.0 million. The pre-tax gain on the disposition of Fairbanks Morse was $274.3 million. We have reported, for all periods presented, the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of Fairbanks Morse as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements.

For 2020, 2019, and 2018, results of operations from Fairbanks Morse were as follows:

Pursuant to applicable accounting guidance for the reporting of discontinued operations, allocations to Fairbanks Morse for corporate services have not been reflected in the above financial statements of discontinued operations and were included as part of our income from continuing operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the company for all periods as they are expected to be in the future. As a result, income before income taxes of Fairbanks Morse has been increased by $2.4 million and $2.2 million, in 2019 and 2018, respectively, with offsetting increase in corporate expenses.

3.Acquisitions and Dispositions
Acquisitions
On October 26, 2020, a subsidiary of EnPro formed for this purpose (the "Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary") acquired all of the equity securities of Alluxa, Inc. ("Alluxa"), a privately held, California-based company. Alluxa is an industrial technology company that provides specialized optical filters and thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, and semiconductor markets. Alluxa's products are developed through a proprietary coating process using state-of-the-art advanced equipment. Alluxa is included with the Advanced Surface Technologies segment.
75


Alluxa works in collaboration with customers across major end markets to provide customized, complex precision coating solutions through its specialized technology platform and proprietary processes. Alluxa has cultivated long-standing customer relationships across its diversified customer base. Alluxa’s global distribution capabilities support the company’s international reach, serving customers across the Americas, Europe, and Asia. Founded in 2007, Alluxa has two locations in California and is headquartered in Santa Rosa, California.
The acquisition was paid for with $238.4 million, net of cash acquired, plus rollover equity from three Alluxa executives (the “Alluxa Executives”). Additionally, there were $5.0 million of acquisition-related costs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2020 related to this transaction which were expensed during the period and included in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The purchase price of Alluxa was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the identifiable assets acquired less the liabilities assumed was reflected as goodwill which is attributable primarily to the value of the workforce and revenue related to sales of future technology and future customers. Goodwill recorded as part of the purchase price allocation was $126.0 million, of which $0.1 million is expected to be tax deductible over a period of 7 years. Identifiable intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition were $132.3 million, consisting of definite-lived intangible assets, including customer relationships, proprietary technology, trade names and non-competition agreements, with a weighted average amortization period of approximately 13 years. Inventory acquired includes an adjustment to fair value of $13.9 million.
In connection with the completion of the transaction, we entered into a limited liability operating agreement (the “Alluxa LLC Agreement”) with respect to the “Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary” in connection with the rollover transaction with the Alluxa Executives receiving approximately 7% of the equity interests of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary in return for their contribution of the rollover shares of Alluxa. Pursuant to the Alluxa LLC Agreement, each Alluxa Executive has the right to sell to us, and we have the right to purchase from each Alluxa Executive (collectively, the “Put and Call Rights”), one-third of the Alluxa Executive equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary during each of three exercise periods in 2024, 2025 and 2026, with any amount not sold or purchased in a prior exercise period being carried forward to the subsequent exercise periods. The Alluxa LLC Agreement also provides for the purchase by us of all of an Alluxa Executive's equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary in connection with the termination of employment of the Alluxa Executive under specified circumstances, with payments in certain circumstances to be made in annual installments. In certain cases involving the termination of an Alluxa Executive's employment, the consideration payable to an Alluxa Executive for the purchase of his equity interests is equal to the fixed value set forth in the Alluxa LLC Agreement (an aggregate of $17.85 million for all of the Alluxa Executives). In all other cases, including upon any exercise of the Alluxa Put and Call Rights, the consideration payable under the Alluxa LLC Agreement in connection with any such purchase by us of an Alluxa Executive's equity interests in the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary is equal to the greater of the fixed value of the equity interests as set forth in the Alluxa LLC Agreement or a price based upon a multiple of twelve-month adjusted EBITDA based upon certain financial metrics of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary, plus cash and less indebtedness of the Alluxa Acquisition Subsidiary prior to the relevant payment, and subject to certain adjustments dependent upon the circumstances of the purchase and sale.
The fair value of the Alluxa Executives' equity interests was estimated as of closing to be $16.9 million. To estimate the fair value of the Alluxa Put and Call Rights, we used a Monte Carlo simulation in an option pricing framework (a special case of the Income Approach). In particular, we simulated the future equity value and EBITDA of Alluxa assuming a correlated Geometric Brownian Motion. For each simulation path, the Alluxa Put and Call Rights' payoffs are calculated based on the contractual terms, and then discounted at the term-matched risk-free rate plus, in the case of the put option, allowance for counterparty credit risk. Finally, the value of the Alluxa Put and Call Rights is calculated as the average present value over all simulated paths. The model uses our EBITDA forecasts adjusted for risk to simulate future EBITDA in a risk-neutral framework. Due to the presence of the put arrangement, the Alluxa Executives' equity interest is presented as redeemable non-controlling interest since redemption is not solely within our control. We initially recognized the amount at fair value, inclusive of the put-call provisions. We will adjust the redeemable non-controlling interest when the redemption value exceeds the carrying value with changes recognized as an adjustment to equity.
As noted earlier, the put option or call option may be exercised in the event of certain employment terminations or other events. The put/call price will be reduced as described above for certain types of employment terminations. As a result of this option related to employment termination, a portion of the non-controlling interest will be classified as compensation expense for financial reporting purposes. We calculated the value of this compensation (the “Compensation Amount”) using a with-and-without method. In particular, we calculated the value of the Compensation Amount as the difference between the value of the net put and call options with and without the reduced strike prices. Based on this approach we calculated the Compensation Amount to be $9.8 million, as of the valuation date. This amount will be recognized as compensation expense over the term of the options and is subject to change based on the ultimate redemption value of the Alluxa Executives' equity interests.

We continue to evaluate the purchase price allocation of this acquisition, primarily the value of certain intangible assets and income tax assets and liabilities, and it may be revised in future periods as these estimates are finalized. The following table represents the preliminary purchase price allocation:

On September 25, 2019, we acquired all of the equity securities of LeanTeq Co., Ltd. and its affiliate LeanTeq LLC (collectively referred to as “LeanTeq”). LeanTeq primarily provides refurbishment services for critical components and assemblies used in state-of-the-art semiconductor equipment. This equipment is used to produce the latest and most technologically advanced microchips for smartphones, autonomous vehicles, high-speed wireless connectivity, artificial intelligence, and other leading-edge applications. Founded in 2011 and headquartered in Taoyuan City, Taiwan, LeanTeq has two locations in Taiwan and one in the United States (Silicon Valley). LeanTeq is included within the Advanced Surface Technologies segment.
The acquisition was paid for with $271.2 million, net of cash acquired, plus rollover equity from two of LeanTeq sellers (the “LeanTeq Executives”) who were executives of the acquired entity. This rollover equity gives the LeanTeq Executives approximately a 10% ownership share (the "Rollover Equity") of Lunar Investment LLC (“Lunar”), EnPro’s subsidiary that purchased LeanTeq. Additionally, there were $6.4 million of acquisition-related costs recorded during the year ended December 31, 2019, which were expensed during the period and included in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Pursuant to a limited liability company agreement (the "LeanTeq LLC Agreement") entered into with respect to Lunar as part of the LeanTeq acquisition, EnPro has the right to buy from each LeanTeq Executive, (each a LeanTeq "Call Option”), and the right to sell (the "Put Option") such LeanTeq Executive's Rollover Equity as follows:
EnPro has the right to buy, and the LeanTeq Executive has the right to sell, such Rollover Equity within 90 days following the third anniversary of the closing and payable in two installments as follows (the "Put/Call Price"):

Half of the price payable for the Rollover Equity is to be equal to a pro rata portion of a multiple of EBITDA (as defined) of Lunar (on a consolidated basis) during the last 12 months (“LTM”) ending on the closest month end prior to the last month end before the purchase or sale (the "First Measurement Date") less Lunar's consolidated net debt in excess of cash as of the First Measurement Date (the "First Exercise Price"). The applicable multiple depends on the future LTM EBITDA margin and revenue growth;
The remaining half of the price payable for the Rollover Equity will be equal to an amount that is the higher of the First Exercise Price and a pro rata portion of a multiple of EBITDA of Lunar (on a consolidated basis) during the last 12 months (“LTM”) prior to the first anniversary of the First Measurement Date (the "Second Measurement Date") less Lunar's consolidated net debt in excess of cash as of the Second Measurement Date. The applicable multiple depends on the future LTM EBITDA margin and revenue growth.
We received $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2020 as a result of the final working capital adjustment that related to our LeanTeq acquisition.
Since the completion of the acquisition of Taiwan-based LeanTeq in September 2019, we commenced an analysis regarding whether we would permanently retain LeanTeq’s earnings in Taiwan or repatriate them to the United States. During the second quarter of 2020 we finalized our analysis and determined that, given the significance of the incremental tax cash cost
77


to EnPro of repatriating LeanTeq earnings to the United States, we will retain any earnings generated by LeanTeq in Taiwan as long as there was a significant incremental tax cash cost of repatriating amounts to the United States.
As a result of the decision to retain earnings in Taiwan, the income tax rate utilized in establishing deferred tax liabilities in the acquisition date balance sheet of LeanTeq was increased from 20% to 23.6%, reflecting a local tax of approximately 3.6% on undistributed earnings. The increase in the income tax rate results in an increase in goodwill and deferred tax liabilities in the acquisition date balance sheet of $7.1 million, which was initially reflected in the consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2020. The decision on our retention of LeanTeq’s earnings in Taiwan was our final required purchase accounting determination. Management concluded that the purchase accounting for the LeanTeq acquisition was finalized at June 30, 2020.
On July 2, 2019, we acquired 100% of the stock of The Aseptic Group (comprising Aseptic Process Equipment SAS and Aseptic Services SARL, collectively referred to as “Aseptic”), a privately-held company which distributes, designs and manufactures aseptic fluid transfer products for the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries. Aseptic, headquartered in Limonest, France, is included as part of our Garlock group of companies within the Sealing Technologies segment. The business was acquired for $39.3 million, net of cash acquired.
Sales of $5.7 million and a pre-tax loss of $6.1 million for Alluxa are included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2020. Sales of $14.4 million and pre-tax income of $1.5 million for LeanTeq and Aseptic are included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year December 31, 2019. The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 are presented as if these acquisitions had been completed on January 1, 2018:
Years Ended December 31,

Pro forma net sales$1,098.7 $1,261.2 $1,335.2 
Pro forma net income (loss) from continuing operations

These amounts have been calculated after applying our accounting policies and adjusting the results of Alluxa, LeanTeq and Aseptic to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets had been applied as of January 1, 2018 as well as additional interest expense to reflect financing required, together with the consequential tax effects. The supplemental pro forma net income for the year ended December 31, 2020 was adjusted to exclude $5.0 million of pre-tax acquisition-related costs. The supplemental pro forma net income for the year ended December 31, 2019 was adjusted to exclude $7.0 million of pre-tax acquisition-related costs. The supplemental pro forma net income for the year ended December 31, 2018 was adjusted to include $12.0 million of these charges. These pro forma financial results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not reflect the effect of synergies that would have been expected to result from the integration of these acquisitions. The pro forma information does not purport to be indicative of the results of operations that actually would have resulted had the acquisitions occurred on January 1, 2018, or of future results of the consolidated entities.
Dispositions
On December 31, 2020, we sold the shares of Technetics Group UK Limited ("Technetics Group UK") for a nominal cash purchase price. As part of the agreement with the buyer, we delivered to the buyer £148,000 of cash to fund value added tax ("VAT") payments due for VAT liabilities already incurred and £50,000 for working capital. We incurred a loss upon the sale of approximately £976,000 ($1.3 million).
On November 30, 2020, we closed on the sale of our bushing block business in our Engineered Materials segment principally located in Dieuze, France. Prior to finalizing the sale of the business, we determined it to be impaired and recorded a $6.2 million impairment charge that consisted of $1.8 million of non-cash impairments of long-lived assets and $4.4 million of cash payments due to the buyer at closing. The impairment charge was recorded in other operating expenses on our consolidated statement of operations. Upon closing of the business, we recorded a $0.1 million gain on the sale of business in other non-operating expense on our consolidated statement of operations. Total charges related to the exit of our bushing block business were $6.1 million.
On November 20, 2020, we completed the sale of the Air Springs portion of our heavy-duty trucking business for $23.1 million in cash, net of an estimated working capital adjustment and fees, and a long-term promissory note with a fair-value of $6.4 million (face value of $7.5 million). As part of the agreement with the buyer, we retained the U.S. accounts receivable for the business, which created a large working capital adjustment at closing. The amount of retained accounts receivable in the
78


U.S. was approximately $8.6 million. The purchase price is subject to final working capital adjustments. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we recorded a $0.1 million non-cash loss on sale of business.
In August of 2020, subsequent to announcing the exit of our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands in the second quarter of 2020, we identified a buyer and entered into a definitive agreement to sell the assets related to the businesses. On September 2, 2020, we completed the sale for $8.9 million, net of transaction fees. This transaction resulted in a $3.1 million loss on sale of the business in other non-operating expense on our consolidated statements of operations, comprised of a $3.0 million non-cash loss on the sales of assets and a $0.1 million loss on other expenses. Prior to finding a buyer of the brands, we determined the assets were impaired and recorded restructuring and impairment charges of $7.4 million in other operating expenses on our consolidated statements of operations. Total losses on the exit of our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands recorded in 2020 were $10.5 million.
In the second quarter of 2020 we entered into an agreement to sell the Lunar® air disc brake business located in both the U.S. and in Shanghai, China. The sale of the U.S. assets of the business closed in the third quarter of 2020 for $0.3 million, resulting in a gain of $0.2 million recorded in non-operating income on our consolidated statement of operations. The sale of the Lunar® manufacturing facility located in Shanghai, China closed in the fourth quarter of 2020 for $0.9 million, resulting in a loss of $0.1 million. Prior to closing on the sale of the business, we determined the assets to be impaired and recorded a $2.1 million impairment charge, of which $1.6 million was related to impairment of long-lived assets and $0.5 million related to the impairment of inventory. The impairment of long-lived assets was recorded in other operating expense and the impairment of inventory was recorded in cost of sales on our consolidated statement of operations. Total net loss related to the exit of the Lunar® air disc brake business was $1.9 million.
For a further discussion of the impairment charges recorded in connection with the sale of the facility in Dieuze, Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands, and the Lunar® air disc brake business, see Note 4, "Other Expense".
In 2019 we recorded a $16.3 million pre-tax loss related to the sale of certain assets and certain liabilities of our brake products business unit located in Rome, Georgia, which was included in our Sealing Technologies segment. The loss is composed of the loss on the sale of the business, which closed on September 25, 2019, and the loss on the sale of the facility which closed in the first quarter of 2020. As a result of the agreement to sell the related building, we recorded a $0.6 million loss in other expense on our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2019. Upon entering the agreement, we ceased depreciation and adjusted the net book value of the building to the contracted sales price and reclassified to other current assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2019.
The sale of the business resulted in a $15.7 million loss that is included in other expense on our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2019. The loss is composed of an $11.3 million non-cash loss on the sale of the business and a $4.4 million loss related to contract cancellation costs, severance, and other expenses.
The aggregate sales price for the brake products business totaled $6.8 million, of which we received $3.6 million in September 2019 at the closing of the sale of the business and received $0.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 that was applied to the sale of the building, which closed in February 2020. On the closing of the sale of the building, we received $2.9 million. We received the balance of $0.2 million later in 2020 which was net of an adjustment based on final inventory balances.
The assets, liabilities, and results of operations for the brake products business unit are not significant to our consolidated financial position or result of operations.
See Note 2, "Discontinued Operations," for information related to the disposition of the Fairbanks Morse division, which comprised the entire Power Systems segment.
4.Other Expense
Operating
We incurred $46.7 million, $35.1 million and $22.2 million of restructuring and impairment costs during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, we decided to exit the manufacturing of metallic gaskets. As a result of this decision, we evaluated the product line and determined the assets were impaired. We recorded a $1.5 million impairment, of which $1.4 million was related to the impairment of long-lived assets and $0.1 million was related to inventory.
79


In the fourth quarter of 2020, we announced a restructuring and reduction in our CPI German workforce. As a result, we recorded $3.4 million in restructuring charges related to severance.
In the third quarter of 2020, sales declines by businesses utilizing two of the indefinite-lived trademarks within our Sealing Technologies segment were determined to be triggering events for an interim impairment analysis. Based on the results of this analysis, we recorded a $16.1 million impairment of indefinite-lived trademarks in the third quarter.
Prior to selling our bushing block business operated at the Dieuze facility, we evaluated the business and determined it was impaired and incurred restructuring charges. We recorded $8.6 million in restructuring and impairment charges, that consisted of $3.0 million of non-cash impairments of long-lived assets, $4.4 million (3.7 million EUR) of cash payments paid to the buyer at closing, and $1.2 million in severance, legal and other costs.
The exit from our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands resulted in restructuring and impairment charges of $7.4 million in 2020, of which $3.6 million was related to inventory impairment charges, $3.5 million was impairment of intangible assets, and $0.3 million related to severance, contract cancellation costs, and other expenses. million.
In the second quarter of 2020, we entered into an agreement to sell the Lunar® air disc brake business. As a result of this agreement, we incurred $1.9 million in impairment charges, of which $1.4 million related to impairment of long-lived assets and $0.5 million related to impairment of inventory.
In addition to the above mentioned restructuring and impairment charges, we undertook various other smaller restructuring and impairment action in 2020 that resulted in recording $7.6 million of restructuring related to severance and other exit costs and $0.2 million of impairment related to inventory of discontinued product lines.
Workforce reductions in 2020 associated with the aforementioned restructuring actions totaled 289 administrative and manufacturing positions.
Based upon an analysis of the Motorwheel product line in the Stemco division of our Sealing Technologies segment, we determined that the long-lived assets of the Motorwheel product line were not recoverable as of December 31, 2019. As a result, we recorded an impairment of $21.0 million, of which $9.2 million related to the impairment of certain finite-lived intangible assets, $7.9 million related to the indefinite lived Motorwheel trademark, and $3.9 million related to the impairment of property, plant, and equipment.
Additionally, in the fourth quarter of 2019, we recorded restructuring charges related to our decision to shut down and exit production of our ATDynamics, Aeris and BatRF product lines in the Stemco division of our Sealing Technologies segment. As a result, we recorded a $3.1 million inventory impairment, $3.1 million impairment of property, plant, and equipment and intangible assets related to these products, and $1.0 million in severance and other costs. Additionally, in the fourth quarter of 2019, we evaluated certain long-lived assets in our Commercial Vehicle Components businesses in the Stemco division of our Sealing Technologies segment and determined these assets were not recoverable. As a result, we recorded a $1.6 million impairment loss related to intangible assets associated with the business. Restructuring actions in 2019 are reflected in other (operating) expense in our Consolidated Statement of Operations other than the inventory related charges of $3.1 million, which are reflected in cost of sales. Including smaller targeted restructuring actions, total restructuring costs and impairment charges for our Stemco division were $30.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Workforce reductions in 2019 associated with our exit from the ATDynamics, Aeris, and BatRF product lines as well as other smaller targeted restructuring actions totaled 121 administrative and manufacturing positions.
In the fourth quarter of 2018, we implemented a restructuring plan under which our Stemco heavy-duty truck business in the Sealing Technologies segment discontinued the manufacturing of brake drum friction. The restructuring plan involved the shut down of production lines that occupied a portion of Stemco’s owned manufacturing facility in Rome, Georgia.
We recorded total restructuring expenses related to the exit of approximately $15.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2018, composed primarily of non-cash charges due to the impairment of inventory, equipment and other tangible assets. The net restructuring costs recorded in 2018 are reflected in our other (operating) expense in our Consolidated Statement of Operations other than inventory related charges of $1.1 million, which are reflected in costs of sales.
In the second quarter of 2018, we commenced the exit from our industrial gas turbine business in the Sealing Technologies segment located in Oxford, Massachusetts. We sold the land and building at this location in June 2018, resulting in a realized gain of $21.7 million.  We incurred severance expenses of $3.8 million, net tangible asset write downs of $1.8 million, the write-off of customer relationship intangible assets associated with the business of $19.1 million, and other costs
80


related to the restructuring of $0.5 million.  These transactions resulted in total net restructuring costs related to the exit of $3.5 million.  These net costs are reflected within other (operating) expense in our Consolidated Statement of Operations other than inventory-related costs of $2.0 million, which were reflected in costs of sales. 
Workforce reductions in 2018 associated with our exit from the industrial gas turbine business and other smaller targeted restructuring actions totaled 98 administrative and manufacturing positions.

Non-Operating
During 2020, 2019 and 2018, we recorded expense of $38.2 million, $14.5 million and $13.4 million, respectively, due to environmental reserve increases based on additional information at several specific sites and other ongoing obligations of previously owned businesses. Refer to Note 20, "Commitments and Contingencies - Environmental," for additional information about our environmental liabilities.
We report the service cost component of pension and other postretirement benefits expense in operating income in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are presented in other (non-operating) expense. For the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, we reported approximately $(3.0) million, $3.3 million and $12.0 million, respectively, of expense (income) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations related to the components of net benefit cost other than service cost. Refer to Note 15, "Pensions and Postretirement Benefits," for additional information regarding net benefit costs.
In 2020, we recorded a pretax loss of $2.6 million related to the sale of several businesses, including the Technetics Group UK Limited business, the Air Springs portion of our heavy-duty trucking business, our Motor Wheel® brake drum and Crewson® brake adjuster brands, and our Lunar ® air disc brake business located in our Sealing Technologies segment as well as our bushing block business principally located in Dieuze, France from our Engineered Materials segment. Sales reported for the divested businesses included in our net sales for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 were $110.1 million, $161.2 million, and $173.5 million, respectively. For a further discussion on businesses disposed of, see Note 3, "Acquisitions and Dispositions."
In 2019, we recorded a pre-tax loss of $16.3 million related to the sale of certain assets and certain liabilities of our brake products business unit located in Rome, Georgia, which was included in our Sealing Technologies segment. The loss is composed of the loss on the sale of the business, which closed in the third quarter of 2019, and the loss on the sale of the facility, which closed in the first quarter of 2020. The sales reported by the business and included in our net sales for the years ended December 31 2019, and 2018 were $37.5 million, and $37.1 million, respectively. Additional disclosures are not presented since the assets, liabilities and results of operations are not significant to our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
We recorded a loss of approximately $18.1 million on the redemption of certain of our debt instruments in the fourth quarter of 2018. Refer to Note 12, "Long-term Debt - Senior Notes," for additional information regarding this transaction.

The GILTI provisions require us to include in our U.S. income tax return certain current foreign subsidiary earnings net of foreign tax credits, subject to limitation. We elected to account for the GILTI tax in the period in which it is incurred. As a result of these provisions, our effective tax rate was increased by 54.8% in 2019. However, due to the GILTI high tax exception election enacted during 2020, we recorded a GILTI benefit that reduced the effective tax rate by 17.6% in 2020, after applying the retroactive benefit to prior years.

In December 2017, the SEC issued guidance to address the application of authoritative tax accounting guidance in situations where companies do not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act for the reporting period in which it was enacted. In these instances, the SEC's guidance allowed the recording of provisional amounts during a measurement period not to extend beyond one year of the enactment date. As the Tax Act was enacted at the end of 2017, and ongoing guidance and interpretation has been issued over the ensuing twelve months, we considered the impact of the transition tax, remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and other items recorded in our year-end income tax provision for the fourth quarter 2017 to be a provisional estimate, and further analyzed the year-end data and refined our calculations. These refinements were made in the third and fourth quarters of 2018, and we completed our accounting for the net impact in the fourth quarter of 2018.

In the third and fourth quarters of 2018, refinements were made to our provisional amounts to incorporate the impact of additional IRS guidance regarding modifications to the transition tax and further analysis of our year-end data. These refinements resulted in a $2.3 million net tax charge comprised of a $7.3 million tax charge associated with the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and a $5.0 million tax benefit related to the reduction of the transition tax, net of foreign tax credits. In addition, GILTI and other provisions of the Tax Act, beginning in 2018, resulted in an additional tax charge of $5.6 million.

Significant components of deferred income tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2020 and 2019 are as follows:

At December 31, 2020, we had $58.8 million of foreign net operating loss carryforwards, of which $27.3 million expire at various dates from 2021 through 2040, and $31.5 million have an indefinite carryforward period. We also had state net operating loss carryforwards with a tax effect of $5.1 million which expire at various dates from 2022 through 2040. These net operating loss carryforwards may be used to offset a portion of future taxable income and, thereby, reduce or eliminate our state or foreign income taxes otherwise payable.

We determined, based on the available evidence, that it is uncertain whether certain foreign subsidiaries will generate sufficient future taxable income to recognize certain of these deferred tax assets. As a result, valuation allowances of $6.6 million and $7.9 million have been recorded as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Valuation allowances recorded relate to certain state and foreign net operating losses and other net deferred tax assets in jurisdictions where future taxable income is uncertain. Valuation allowances may arise associated with deferred tax assets recorded in purchase accounting. In accordance with applicable accounting guidelines, any reversal of a valuation allowance that was recorded in purchase accounting reduces income tax expense.
The effective income tax rate from operations varied from the statutory federal income tax rate as follows:

Due to a net pretax loss for the current year-end, the 2020 effective rate items listed above with negative signs represent increases to income tax expense and positive amounts represent decreases to income tax expense. The effective tax rate for 2020 was primarily driven by the foreign rate differential related to certain foreign divestitures and earnings that were subject to higher tax rates, the effect of these items resulted in a net $5.2 million increase in income tax expense. During 2020, we identified errors related to our accounting for income taxes that primarily relate to the 2017 through 2019 annual periods. Such errors resulted in an overstatement of tax expense by approximately $4.9 million in our previously issued financial statements. We concluded the errors were not material to our previously issued financial statements and corrected the cumulative $4.9 million prior-period errors as an out-of-period adjustment to income tax expense during the fourth quarter of 2020. Additionally, the effective tax rate was also reduced by the GILTI high-tax exception election and increased for non-deductible expenses which resulted in a net $2.7 million decrease in income tax expense.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had $12.2 million and $10.1 million, respectively, of gross unrecognized tax benefits. Of the gross unrecognized tax benefit balances as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, $8.3 million and $8.5 million, respectively, would have an impact on our effective tax rate if ultimately recognized.

We record interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. In addition to the gross unrecognized tax benefits above, we had $3.3 million and $2.7 million accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 includes $0.4 million for interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits. Income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, in total included $0.5 million for interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of the gross unrecognized tax benefits (excluding interest) is as follows:
(in millions)202020192018
Balance at beginning of year$10.1 $2.9 $3.8

U.S. federal income tax returns for tax years 2014 and forward remain open to examination. In June 2017, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) began an examination of our 2014 through 2017 U.S. federal income tax returns. Although this examination is part of a routine and recurring cycle, we cannot predict the final outcome or expected conclusion date of the audit. We and our subsidiaries are also subject to income tax in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Two foreign and various state tax returns are also currently under examination. The most significant of these include France and Taiwan. Substantially all significant state, local and foreign income tax returns for the years 2015 and forward are open to examination.
85


We expect that some of these examinations may conclude within the next twelve months, however, the final outcomes are not yet determinable. If these examinations are concluded or effectively settled within the next twelve months, it could reduce the associated gross unrecognized tax benefits by approximately $4.6 million. In addition, another $2.5 million in gross unrecognized tax benefits may be recognized within the next twelve months as the applicable statute of limitations expires.
6.Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the income (loss) by the applicable weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock as adjusted for any potentially dilutive shares as of the balance sheet date. The computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for calendar years 2020, 2019, and 2018 is as follows (in millions, except per share data):

10.Leases
We regularly enter into operating leases primarily for real estate, equipment, and vehicles. Operating lease arrangements are generally utilized to secure the use of assets if the terms and conditions of the lease or the nature of the asset makes the lease arrangement more favorable than a purchase. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. We have elected an accounting policy to combine lease and non-lease components.

Our building leases have remaining terms up to eleven years, some of which contain options to renew up to five years, and some of which contain options to terminate. Some leases contain non-lease components, which may include items such as building common area maintenance, building parking, or general service and maintenance provided for leased assets by the lessor. Our vehicle, equipment, and other leases have remaining lease terms up to six years, some of which contain options to renew or become evergreen leases, with automatic renewing one-month terms, and some of which have options to terminate.

Our right of use assets and liabilities related to operating leases as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows:

Current liabilityAccrued expenses$10.1 $9.3 
Long-term liabilityOther liabilities35.3 28.4 
Total liability$45.4 $37.7 

Approximately 90% of the dollar value of our operating lease assets and liabilities arise from real estate leases and approximately 10% arise from equipment and vehicle leases as of December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2019, approximately 86% of the dollar value of our operating lease assets and liabilities arise from real estate leases and approximately 14% arise from equipment and vehicle leases.

We entered into additional operating leases, including leases acquired through business acquisitions, and renewed existing leases that resulted in new right-of-use assets totaling $16.6 million and $20.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate for calculating the right of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities. Accordingly, we determine the interest rate that we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term and amount equal to the lease payments in similar economic environments. We used the incremental borrowing rate at January 1, 2019 for all leases that commenced prior to that date.

Our lease costs and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were as follows:

We rarely enter into finance leases or act as a lessor. Since finance lease amounts, lessor details, and finance lease related costs are not significant to our consolidated financial position or results of operations, additional disclosures regarding finance leases are not presented.

Net rent expense was $13.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Revolving Credit Facility
On September 25, 2019, we entered into a First Amendment (the "First Amendment") to our Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement”) among EnPro Industries, Inc. and EnPro Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“EnPro Holdings”), as borrowers, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer. The Credit Agreement provides for a five-year, senior secured revolving credit facility of $400.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a five-year, senior secured term loan facility of $150.0 million (the "Term Loan Facility" and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the "Facilities"). The Amended Credit Agreement also provides that the borrowers may seek incremental term loans and/or additional revolving credit commitments in an amount equal to the greater of $225.0 million or 100% of consolidated EBITDA (as defined) for the most recently ended four-quarter period for which we have reported financial results, plus additional amounts based on a consolidated senior secured leverage ratio.
Initially, borrowings under the Facilities bore interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 1.50% or base rate plus 0.50%, with the interest rates under the Facilities being subject to incremental increases based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio.  In addition, a commitment fee accrues with respect to the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Facility at an annual rate of 0.175%, which rate is also subject to incremental increase or decrease based on a consolidated total net leverage ratio.
The Term Loan Facility amortizes on a quarterly basis in an annual amount equal to 2.50% of the original principal amount of the Term Loan Facility in each of years one through three, 5.00% of such original principal amount in year four, and 1.25% of such original principal amount in each of the first three quarters of year five, with the remaining outstanding principal amount payable at maturity.
The Facilities are subject to prepayment with the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales not reinvested in acquisitions within a specified period, casualty or condemnation events, and non-permitted debt issuances.
EnPro and EnPro Holdings are the permitted borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility.  We have the ability to add foreign subsidiaries as borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility for up to $100.0 million (or its foreign currency equivalent) in aggregate borrowings, subject to certain conditions.  Each of our domestic, consolidated subsidiaries (other than any subsidiaries that may be designated as "unrestricted" by the Company from time to time) is required to guarantee the
90


obligations of the borrowers under the Revolving Credit Facility, and each of our existing domestic, consolidated subsidiaries has entered into the Credit Agreement to provide such a guarantee.
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority pledge of certain assets. The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants and required financial ratios including a maximum consolidated total net leverage and a minimum consolidated interest coverage as defined in the Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with all covenants of the Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2020.
On January 19, 2021, we entered into an amendment to the credit facility that waived the requirement to prepay the Term Loan Facility with remaining excess net cash proceeds related to the sale of Fairbanks Morse that had not been reinvested in operating assets within 365 days from the date of the sale.
The borrowing availability under our Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2020 was $388.6 million after giving consideration to $11.4 million of outstanding letters of credit. The balance of our outstanding Term Loan Facility was $145.4 million.
Senior Notes
On October 17, 2018, we completed the offering of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2026 (the "Senior Notes") and applied the net proceeds of that offering, together with borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, to redeem on October 31, 2018 the full $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2022 (the "Old Notes"). The Old Notes were redeemed at a price equal to 102.938% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. We recorded a loss on the redemption of the Old Notes of approximately $18.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 which is included in other (non-operating) expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2018.

The Senior Notes were issued to investors at 100% of the principal amount thereof. The Senior Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of EnPro and mature on October 15, 2026. Interest on the Senior Notes accrues at a rate of 5.75% per annum and is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing April 15, 2019. The Senior Notes are required to be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of EnPro’s existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries that is a borrower under, or guarantees, our indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility or guarantees any other Capital Markets Indebtedness (as defined in the indenture governing the Senior Notes) of EnPro or any of the guarantors.
On or after October 15, 2021, we may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the Senior Notes at specified redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, we may redeem a portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes before October 15, 2021 with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings at a specified redemption price plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. We may also redeem some or all of the Senior Notes before October 15, 2021 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus a “make whole” premium.
Each holder of the Senior Notes may require us to repurchase some or all of the Senior Notes held by such holder for cash upon the occurrence of a defined “change of control” event. Our ability to redeem the Senior Notes prior to maturity is subject to certain conditions, including in certain cases the payment of make-whole amounts.
The indenture governing the Senior Notes includes covenants that restrict our ability to engage in certain activities, including incurring additional indebtedness, paying dividends and repurchasing shares of our common stock, subject in each case to specified exceptions and qualifications set forth in the indenture. The indenture further requires us to apply the net cash proceeds of certain asset sales not reinvested in acquisitions, or used to repay or otherwise reduce specified indebtedness within a specified period, in the event of the net proceeds exceeding a specified amount, to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The payments for long-term debt shown in the table above reflect the contractual principal amount for the Senior Notes. In the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020, these amounts are shown net of unamortized debt discounts aggregating $4.1 million pursuant to applicable accounting rules.
Debt Issuance Costs
During 2019, we capitalized $1.6 million of debt issuance costs primarily attributable to the First Amendment of the Credit Agreement as well costs associated with the issuance of our Senior Notes. During 2018, we capitalized $6.6 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes and the amendment of the Revolving Credit Facility.
13.Derivatives and Hedging
We are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances on our foreign subsidiaries’ balance sheets, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. We strive to control our exposure to these risks through our normal operating activities and, where appropriate, through derivative instruments. We periodically enter into contracts to hedge forecasted transactions that are denominated in foreign currencies. The notional amount of foreign exchange contracts was $3.3 million and $5.2 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. All foreign exchange contracts outstanding at December 31, 2020 expired in January of 2021.
The notional amounts of all of our foreign exchange contracts were recorded at their fair market value as of December 31, 2020 with changes in market value recorded in income. The earnings impact of any foreign exchange contract that is specifically related to the purchase of inventory is recorded in cost of sales and the changes in market value of all other contracts are recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The balances of foreign exchange derivative assets are recorded in other current assets and the balances of foreign exchange derivative liabilities are recorded in accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In March 2018, we entered into cross currency swap agreements (the "Initial Swap") with a notional amount of $200.0 million to manage foreign currency risk by effectively converting a portion of the interest payments related to our fixed-rate U.S. Dollar (“USD”)-denominated Old Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments thereunder, to interest payments on fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt of 161.8 million EUR with a weighted average interest rate of 3.29% with the same interest payment dates and maturity date as the Old Notes maturing in 2022. We terminated and settled these agreements on September 7, 2018. As a result of this termination, we received $11.9 million, of which $9.3 million represented the fair value of the contracts as of the settlement date and $2.6 million represented interest receivable. Unrealized gains totaling $7.0 million, net of tax, as of the termination date will remain in accumulated other comprehensive loss until the complete or substantially complete liquidation of our investment in the underlying foreign operations.
In September 2018, we entered into new cross currency swap agreements (the "New Swap") with a notional amount of $200.0 million to manage foreign currency risk by effectively converting a portion of the interest payments related to our fixed-rate USD-denominated Old Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments thereunder, to interest payments on fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt of 172.8 million EUR with a weighted average interest rate of 2.8%, with interest payment dates of March 15 and September 15 of each year. The New Swap agreement matures on September 15, 2022.
In May 2019, we entered into additional cross currency swap agreements (the "Additional Swap") with a notional amount of $100.0 million to manage an increased portion of our foreign currency risk by effectively converting a portion of the interest payments related to our fixed-rate USD-denominated Senior Notes, including the semi-annual interest payments thereunder, to interest payments on the fixed-rate Euro-denominated debt of 89.6 million EUR with a weighted average interest rate of 3.5%, with interest payment dates of April 15 and October 15 of each year. The Additional Swap agreement matures on October 15, 2026.
92


During the term of the swap agreements, we will receive semi-annual payments from the counterparties due to the difference between the interest rate on the Senior Notes and the interest rate on the Euro debt underlying each of the swaps. There was no principal exchange at the inception of the arrangements, and there will be no exchange at maturity. At maturity (or earlier at our option), we and the counterparties will settle the swap agreements at their fair value in cash based on the aggregate notional amount and the then-applicable currency exchange rate compared to the exchange rate at the time the swap agreements were entered into.
We have designated the cross currency swaps as qualifying hedging instruments and are accounting for them as a net investment hedge. At December 31, 2020, the fair values of the New Swap and the Additional Swap totaled a $9.5 million liability and were recorded within other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The gains and losses resulting from fair value adjustments to the cross currency swap agreements, excluding interest accruals related to the above receipts, are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss within our cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment, as the swap is effective in hedging the designated risk. Cash flows related to the cross currency swaps will be included in operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, aside from the ultimate settlement at maturity with the counterparties, which will be included in investing activities.

14.Fair Value Measurements
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized as follows:

Our time deposits and deferred compensation assets and liabilities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices. Our foreign currency derivatives are classified as Level 2 as their value is calculated based upon observable inputs including market USD/Euro exchange rates and market interest rates.
The carrying values of our significant financial instruments reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate their respective fair values, except for the following:

15.Pensions and Postretirement Benefits
We have non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering eligible employees in the United States, Mexico and several European countries. Salaried employees’ benefit payments are generally determined using a formula that is based on an employee’s compensation and length of service. We closed our defined benefit pension plan for new salaried employees in the United States who joined the Company after January 1, 2006, and, effective January 1, 2007, benefits were frozen for all salaried employees who were not age 40 or older as of December 31, 2006 and benefits for all remaining eligible salaried
93


employees were frozen as of January 1, 2021. Hourly employees’ benefit payments are generally determined using stated amounts for each year of service.
Our employees also participate in voluntary contributory retirement savings plans for salaried and hourly employees maintained by us. Under these plans, eligible employees can receive matching contributions up to the first 6% of their eligible earnings. Effective January 1, 2007, those employees whose defined benefit pension plan benefits were frozen receive an additional 2% company contribution each year. Beginning on August 1, 2016, this additional contribution ceased being provided to future hires at the company, but was retained for those employees already receiving it. We recorded $9.3 million, $11.7 million and $10.7 million in expenses in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively, for matching contributions under these plans.
Our general funding policy for qualified defined benefit pension plans historically has been to contribute amounts that are at least sufficient to satisfy regulatory funding standards. In 2020 we contributed $4.0 million in cash to our U.S. pension plans, No contributions were made in 2019, and in 2018, we contributed $20.0 million, in cash to our U.S. pension plans. The contributions were made in these years in order to meet a funding level sufficient to avoid variable fees from the PBGC on the underfunded portion of our pension liability. We do not anticipate making contributions in 2021 to our U.S. defined benefit pension plans and we expect to make total contributions of approximately $0.5 million in 2021 to the foreign pension plans.
On June 26, 2018, we entered into an agreement to purchase a group annuity contract to transfer approximately $68 million of our outstanding pension projected benefit obligations related to certain U.S. retirees or beneficiaries. The transaction closed on July 3, 2018 and was funded with pension plan assets with a value of $70.9 million. As a result of this transaction a pre-tax pension settlement charge of $12.8 million was recognized in the third quarter of 2018. This charge was recorded in other (non-operating) expense on the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets for the defined benefit pension plans with projected benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $15.3 million and $1.2 million at December 31, 2020, and $66.0 million and $48.3 million at December 31, 2019, respectively. The accumulated benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets for the defined benefit pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $11.1 million and $1.2 million at December 31, 2020, and $57.2 million and $44.8 million at December 31, 2019, respectively.
We provide, through non-qualified plans, supplemental pension benefits to a limited number of employees. Certain of our subsidiaries also sponsor unfunded postretirement plans that provide certain health-care and life insurance benefits to eligible employees. The health-care plans are contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted periodically, and contain other cost-sharing features, such as deductibles and coinsurance. The life insurance plans are generally noncontributory. The amounts included in “Other Benefits” in the following tables include the non-qualified plans and the other postretirement plans discussed above.
The following table sets forth the changes in projected benefit obligations and plan assets of our defined benefit pension and other non-qualified and postretirement plans as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

Rate of compensation increase3.0 %3.0 %3.0 %4.0 %4.0 %4.0 %
The discount rate reflects the current rate at which the pension liabilities could be effectively settled at the end of the year. The discount rate was determined with a model which uses a theoretical portfolio of high quality corporate bonds specifically selected to produce cash flows closely related to how we would settle our retirement obligations. This produced a discount rate of 2.625% at December 31, 2020. As of the date of these financial statements, there are no known or anticipated changes in our
96


discount rate assumption that will impact our pension expense in 2021. A 25 basis point decrease (increase) in our discount rate, holding constant our expected long-term return on plan assets and other assumptions, would increase (decrease) pension expense by approximately $0.8 million per year.
The overall expected long-term rate of return on assets was determined based upon weighted-average historical returns over an extended period of time for the asset classes in which the plans invest according to our current investment policy.
We use the Pri-2012 base mortality table with the MP-2020 projection scale to value our domestic pension liabilities.

Our investment goal is to maximize the return on assets, over the long term, by investing in equities and fixed income investments while diversifying investments within each asset class to reduce the impact of losses in individual securities. Equity investments include a mix of U.S. large capitalization equities, U.S. small capitalization equities and non-U.S. equities. Fixed income investments include a mix of treasury obligations and high-quality money market instruments. The asset allocation policy is reviewed and any significant variation from the target asset allocation mix is rebalanced periodically. The plans have no direct investments in EnPro common stock.
The plans invest exclusively in mutual funds whose holdings are marketable securities traded on recognized markets and, as a result, would be considered Level 1 assets. The investment portfolios of the various funds at December 31, 2020 and 2019 are summarized as follows:

16.Shareholders' Equity
We have a policy under which we intend to declare regular quarterly cash dividends on our common stock, as determined by our board of directors, after taking into account our cash flows, earnings, financial position and other relevant matters. In accordance with this policy, total dividend payments of $21.7 million, $20.9 million, and $20.3 million were made during the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively.
In February 2021, our board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.27 per share payable on March 17, 2021 to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 3, 2021.
In October 2018, our board of directors authorized a two-year program for expenditures of up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common shares. Prior to the expiration of this authorization in October 2020, we repurchased a total of 0.3 million shares for $20.3 million, of which we repurchased 0.1 million shares for $5.3 million during 2020 and we repurchased 0.2 million shares for $15.0 million in 2019.
In October of 2020, our board of directors authorized a new two-year program of up to $50.0 million for the repurchased of our outstanding common shares through October 2022. We have not made any repurchases under the new authorization.
In October 2017, our board of directors authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of our outstanding common shares. During 2018, we repurchased 0.7 million shares for $50.0 million under this program.
The shares for all repurchase plans are retired upon purchase.

18.Equity Compensation Plan
We have equity compensation plans (the “Plans”) that provide for the delivery of shares pursuant to various market and performance-based incentive awards. As of December 31, 2020, there are 1.0 million shares available for future awards. Our policy is to issue new shares to satisfy share delivery obligations for awards made under the Plans.
The Plans permit awards of restricted share units to be granted to executives and other key employees. Generally, all share units awarded prior to February 2020 vest in three years, while those awarded thereafter vest in equal annual increments over three years. Compensation expense related to the restricted share units is based upon the market price of the underlying common stock as of the date of the grant and is amortized over the applicable vesting period using the straight-line method. As of December 31, 2020, there was $6.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted share units expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining amortization period of 1.7 years.
Under the terms of the Plans, performance share awards were granted to executives and other key employees during 2020, 2019 and 2018. Each grant will vest if EnPro achieves specific financial objectives at the end of each three-year performance period. Additional shares may be awarded if objectives are exceeded, but some or all shares may be forfeited if objectives are not met.
Performance shares earned at the end of a performance period, if any, for shares issued in 2018 and 2019 will be paid in actual shares of our common stock, less the number of shares equal in value to applicable withholding taxes if the employee chooses. Performance shares earned at the end of a performance period for shares issued in 2020 will be paid in cash, less applicable withholding taxes if the employee chooses. During the performance period, a grantee receives dividend equivalents accrued in cash, and shares are forfeited if a grantee terminates employment.
Compensation expense related to the performance shares payable in stock granted in 2019 and 2018 is computed using the fair value of the awards at the date of grant. Potential shares to be issued for performance share awards granted in 2019 and 2018 are subject to a market condition based on the performance of our stock, measured based upon a calculation of total shareholder return, compared to a group of peer companies. The fair value of these awards was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation methodology. Compensation expense for these awards is computed based upon this grant date fair value using the straight-line method over the applicable performance period.
Compensation expense related to the performance shares payable in cash granted in 2020 is computed using the fair value of the awards as of December 31, 2020. The fair value of these awards was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation methodology. Compensation issued for performance share awards granted in 2020 is subject to a market conditions based on the performance of our stock, measured based upon a calculation of total shareholder return, compared to a group of peer companies. Compensation expense for these awards is computed based upon the calculated fair value at the end of the period using the straight-line method over the applicable performance period. The shares will be remeasured and compensation expense will be adjusted based on the current market-based estimate.

The Monte Carlo simulation model utilizes multiple input variables that determine the probability of satisfying the market condition stipulated in the award and calculates the fair value of each award. We issued performance share awards to eligible participants on February 18, 2020, February 11, 2019, and February 12, 2018. We used the following assumptions in determining the fair value of these awards:

The expected volatility assumption for us and each member of the peer group is based on each entity’s historical stock price volatility over a period equal to the length from the valuation date to the end of the performance cycle. The annual expected dividend yield is based on annual expected dividend payments and the stock price on the date of grant. The risk free rate equals the yield, as of the valuation date, on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury STRIPS that have a remaining term equal to the length of the remaining performance cycle.
As of December 31, 2020, there was $1.2 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested performance share awards to be paid in stock and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average vesting period of 1.0 year. As of December 31, 2020 there was $3.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested performance share awards to be paid in cash and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average vesting period of 2.0 years.

The maximum potential number of shares to be issued at December 31, 2020 is represented by the restricted share units and equity based performance shares at nonvested balance at December 31, 2020. We account for forfeitures when they occur as opposed to estimating the number of awards that are expected to vest as of the grant date.
Non-qualified and incentive stock options were granted in 2011 and in 2019, and 2020. No stock option has a term exceeding 10 years from the date of grant. All stock options were granted at not less than 100% of fair market value (as defined) on the date of grant. As of December 31, 2020, there was $2.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options.
The following table provides certain information with respect to stock options as of December 31, 2020:

We determine the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing formula. Key inputs into this formula include expected term, expected volatility, expected dividend yield, and the risk-free interest rate. This fair value is amortized on a straight line basis over the vesting period. The options issued in 2019 vest pro-rata over year three, four, and five from the grant date. The options issued in 2020 vest in equal annual increments over three years.
The expected term represents the period that our stock options are expected to be outstanding, and is determined based on historical experience of similar awards, given the contractual terms of the awards, vesting schedules, and expectations of future employee behavior. The fair value of stock options reflects a volatility factor calculated using historical market data for EnPro's
102


common stock. The time frame used was approximated as a six year period from the grant date for the awards issued in 2020 and a seven year period from the grant date for the awards in 2019. The dividend assumption is based on our current expectations for our dividend policy. We base the risk-free interest rate on the yield to maturity at the time of the stock option grant on zero-coupon U.S. government bonds having a remaining life equal to the option's expected life. When estimating forfeitures, we consider voluntary termination behaviors as well as analysis of actual option forfeitures.
The option awards issued in 2020 had a fair value of $13.64 per share and $18.67 per share at the grant dates of February 27, 2020 and August 27, 2020, respectively. The following assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of the 2020 option awards:

Each non-employee director received an annual grant of phantom shares equal in value to $110,000 in the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and $95,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018. With respect to certain phantom shares awarded in prior years, we will pay each non-employee director in cash the fair market value of the director's phantom shares upon termination of service as a member of the board of directors. The remaining phantom shares granted will be paid out in the form of one share of our common stock for each phantom share, with the value of any fractional phantom shares paid in cash. Expense recognized in the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 related to these phantom share grants was $0.9 million, $0.9 million and $0.7 million, respectively. No cash payments were used to settle phantom shares in 2020 or 2019. Cash payments of $0.7 million were used to settle phantom shares in 2018.

19.Business Segment Information
We aggregate our operating businesses into three reportable segments. The factors considered in determining our reportable segments are the economic similarity of the businesses, the nature of products sold or services provided, the production processes and the types of customers and distribution methods. Our reportable segments are managed separately based on these differences.
Our Sealing Technologies segment designs, manufactures and sells sealing products, including: metallic, non-metallic and composite material gaskets, dynamic seals, compression packing, resilient metal seals, elastomeric seals, custom-engineered mechanical seals for applications in the aerospace industry and other markets, hydraulic components, expansion joints, sanitary gaskets, hoses and fittings for the hygienic process industries, fluid transfer products for the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries, hole forming products, bellows and bellows assemblies, PTFE products, and heavy-duty commercial vehicle parts used in wheel-end and suspension components. These products are used in a variety of industries, including chemical and petrochemical processing, pulp and paper processing, power generation, food and pharmaceutical processing, primary metal manufacturing, mining, water and waste treatment, heavy-duty trucking, aerospace, medical, filtration and semiconductor fabrication. In many of these industries, performance and durability are vital for safety and environmental protection. Many of our products are used in highly demanding applications, e.g., where extreme temperatures, extreme pressures, corrosive environments, strict tolerances, and/or worn equipment make product performance difficult.
Our Advanced Surface Technologies segment applies proprietary technologies, processes, and capabilities to deliver highly differentiated suites of products and services for the most challenging applications in high growth markets. The segment’s products and services are used in highly demanding environments requiring performance, precision and repeatability, with a low tolerance for failure. The segment’s services include cleaning, coating, testing, refurbishment and verification services for critical components and assemblies used in state-of-the-art advanced node semiconductor manufacturing equipment. Its designs, manufactures and sells specialized optical filters and thin-film coatings for the most challenging applications in the industrial technology, life sciences, and semiconductor markets and complex front-end wafer processing sub-systems, new and refurbished electrostatic chuck pedestals, thin film coatings, and edge-welded metal bellows for the semiconductor equipment industry and for critical applications in the space, aerospace and defense markets.
Our Engineered Materials segment includes operations that design, manufacture and sell self-lubricating, non-rolling metal-polymer, engineered plastics, and fiber reinforced composite bearing products, precision engineered components and lubrication systems for reciprocating compressors and engines, critical service flange gaskets, seals and electrical flange isolation kits used in high-pressure wellhead equipment, flow lines, water injection lines, sour hydrocarbon process applications, and crude oil and natural gas pipeline/transmission line applications. These products are used in a wide range of applications, including the automotive, aerospace, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, natural gas, health, power generation, machine tools, air treatment, refining, petrochemical and general industrial markets.
We measure operating performance based on segment earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization, and other selected items ("Adjusted Segment EBITDA"), which is segment profit excluding acquisition and divestiture expenses, restructuring costs, impairment charges, non-controlling interest compensation, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted Segment EBITDA is not defined under GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Segment profit is total segment revenue reduced by operating expenses, restructuring and other costs identifiable with the segment. Corporate expenses include general corporate administrative costs. Expenses not directly attributable to the segments, corporate expenses, net interest expense, asset impairments, gains and losses related to the sale of assets, and income taxes are not included in the computation of segment profit. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those for EnPro.
Non-controlling interest compensation allocation represents compensation expense associated with a portion of the rollover equity from the acquisitions of LeanTeq and Alluxa being subject to reduction for certain types of employment terminations of the sellers. This expense is recorded in selling, general, and administrative expenses on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and is directly related to the terms of the acquisitions. This expense will continue to be recognized as compensation expense over the term of the put and call options associated with the acquisitions unless certain employment terminations have occurred.

20.Commitments and Contingencies
General
A description of certain environmental and other legal matters relating to certain of our subsidiaries is included in this section. In addition to the matters noted herein, we are from time to time subject to, and are presently involved in, other litigation and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. We believe the outcome of such other litigation and legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Expenses for administrative and legal proceedings are recorded when incurred.
107


Environmental
Our facilities and operations are subject to federal, state and local environmental and occupational health and safety laws and regulations of the U.S. and foreign countries. We take a proactive approach in our efforts to comply with these laws and regulations as they relate to our manufacturing operations and in proposing and implementing any remedial plans that may be necessary. We also regularly conduct comprehensive environmental, health and safety audits at our facilities to maintain compliance and improve operational efficiency.
Although we believe past operations were in substantial compliance with the then applicable regulations, we or one or more of our subsidiaries are involved with various remediation activities or an investigation to determine responsibility for environmental conditions at 20 sites. At 14 of these 20 sites, the future cost per site for us or our subsidiary is expected to exceed $100,000. Of these 20 sites, 18 are sites where we or one or more of our subsidiaries formerly conducted business operations but no longer do, and 2 are sites where we conduct manufacturing operations. Investigations have been completed for 16 of the 20 sites and are in progress at 3 sites. An investigation to determine responsibility for environmental conditions is ongoing at one site.
Our policy is to accrue environmental investigation and remediation costs when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. For sites with multiple future projected cost scenarios for identified feasible investigation and remediation options where no one estimate is more likely than all the others, our policy is to accrue the lowest estimate among the range of estimates. The measurement of the liability is based on an evaluation of currently available facts with respect to each individual situation and takes into consideration factors such as existing technology, presently enacted laws and regulations and prior experience in the remediation of similar contaminated sites. Liabilities are established for all sites based on these factors. As assessments and remediation progress at individual sites, these liabilities are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional technical data and legal information. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had accrued liabilities aggregating $42.2 million and $36.0 million, respectively, for estimated future expenditures relating to environmental contingencies. These amounts have been recorded on an undiscounted basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Given the uncertainties regarding the status of laws, regulations, enforcement policies, the impact of other parties potentially being fully or partially liable, technology and information related to individual sites, we do not believe it is possible to develop an estimate of the range of reasonably possible environmental loss in excess of our recorded liabilities.
During the fourth quarter of 2020, new information became available that enabled us to develop and refine estimated costs of future remediation at the following sites:
Water Valley. EnPro Holdings has been managing trichloroethylene soil and groundwater contamination at the site in Water Valley, Mississippi in connection with the former operation in the 1970s and 1980s by a corporate predecessor of a plant located at the site, which plant was divested to BorgWarner, Inc. ("BorgWarner") in 1996. The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality ("MDEQ") issued orders against EnPro Holdings requiring evaluation of potential vapor intrusion into residential properties and commercial facilities located over the groundwater plume as well as requiring additional groundwater investigation and remediation. All of the work to be performed at the residential area, the plant and off-site is set forth in an agreed Order that we and MDEQ entered into on September 11, 2017 and we established reserves with respect to the liability associated with the anticipated remediation. Based upon then limited information regarding any incremental remediation or other actions that may be required at the site, we were unable to estimate any further loss or a reasonably possible range of loss related to this matter. During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, we received the results from groundwater and vapor sampling under the plant building, which results provided a basis to estimate the costs to remediate the contamination under the building, and we received approval of the design for the remediation system to be operated in the area of contamination behind the building, which approval allowed for updating of previously estimated construction and operating and maintenance costs. Based on this information, we increased the reserve for Water Valley by $12.5 million, to $15.6 million at December 31, 2020, to reflect the minimum of the range of reasonably likely scenarios to effect the remediation of the contamination under the building and the other areas where contamination is located. The total expense related to third-party claim settlements and remediation of the Water Valley site in calendar 2020, including reserve adjustments related to remediation, was $26.5 million. Total cash payments related to third-party claim settlements and remediation at Water Valley was $20.1 million in 2020. The final selection of the remediation option and design of the remedial system to address contamination under the building is subject to MDEQ approval, and we are not able at this time to estimate the upper end of a range of liability with respect to the reasonably likely scenarios to effect remediation at this site.
Arizona Uranium Mines. EnPro Holdings has received notices from the EPA asserting that it is a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA")
108


as the successor to a former operator of eight uranium mines in Arizona. The former operator conducted operations at the mines from 1954 to 1957. In the 1990s, remediation work performed by others at these sites consisted of capping the exposed areas of the mines. We have previously reserved amounts of probable loss associated with these mines, principally including the cost of the investigative work to be conducted at such mines. We entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent for Interim Removal Action with the EPA effective November 7, 2017 for the performance of this work. The balance in these reserves as of September 30, 2020 was $1.0 million. During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the EPA initiated group discussions with EnPro Holdings and other potentially responsible parties to resolve various technical issues, including the development of cleanup standards. Based on these discussions and subsequent discussions with other responsible parties with similar sites, we have concluded that further remedial work beyond maintenance of and minor repairs to the existing caps is probable, and we have evaluated the feasibility of various remediation scenarios. As a result, we increased the reserve for these sites by $12.9 million to $13.9 million at December 31, 2020, to reflect the low end of the range of our reasonably likely liability with respect to these sites. The expected contribution of $3.8 million from the U.S. government towards remediation of the site is considered probable and is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020. We are not able at this time to estimate the upper end of a range of liability with respect to these sites.
Pine Bluff. For several years, we have been operating a groundwater remediation system at the site of an electrical transformer facility in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, which facility was sold by a corporate predecessor of EnPro Holdings in 1994. Pursuant to the terms of the sale agreement, EnPro Holdings, as the corporate successor has responsibility for pre-closing environmental conditions at the site and the existing remediation system at the site had been approved by the Arkansas Division of Environmental Quality (the “ADEQ”). During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, at the initiation of the ADEQ, we conducted further sampling and technical reviews to determine whether part of the contamination was migrating off-site that was not being captured by the existing remediation system. Based on all the sampling results received and reviewed, we concluded that modifications to the remediation program will be required. Based on this information, we increased the reserve for the Pine Bluff site by $2.8 million, to $2.8 million at December 31, 2020, to reflect the low end of the range of our reasonably likely liability with respect to this site. Total cash payments made in calendar year 2020 were $0.9 million. We are not able at this time to estimate the upper end of a range of liability with respect to this site.
We believe that our accruals for specific environmental liabilities are adequate for those liabilities based on currently available information. Based upon limited information regarding any incremental remediation or other actions that may be required at these sites, we cannot estimate any further loss or a reasonably possible range of loss related to these matters. Actual costs to be incurred in future periods may vary from estimates because of the inherent uncertainties in evaluating environmental exposures due to unknown and changing conditions, changing government regulations and legal standards regarding liability.
Based on our prior ownership of Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc. (“Crucible”), we may have additional contingent liabilities in one or more significant environmental matters. One such matter, which is included in the 20 sites referred to above, is the Lower Passaic River Study Area of the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site in New Jersey. Crucible operated a steel mill abutting the Passaic River in Harrison, New Jersey from the 1930s until 1974, which was one of many industrial operations on the river dating back to the 1800s. Certain contingent environmental liabilities related to this site were retained by a predecessor of our EnPro Holdings, Inc. subsidiary (which, including its corporate predecessors is referred to in this Note 20 as "EnPro Holdings") when it sold a majority interest in Crucible Materials Corporation (the successor of Crucible) in 1985. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) notified our subsidiary in September 2003 that it is a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) for Superfund response actions in the lower 17-mile stretch of the Passaic River known as the Lower Passaic River Study Area.
EnPro Holdings and approximately 70 of the numerous other PRPs, known as the Cooperating Parties Group, are parties to a May 2007 Administrative Order on Consent with the EPA to perform a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) of the contaminants in the Lower Passaic River Study Area. In September 2018, EnPro Holdings withdrew from the Cooperating Parties Group but remains a party to the May 2007 Administrative Order on Consent. The RI/FS was completed and submitted to the EPA at the end of April 2015. The RI/FS recommends a targeted dredge and cap remedy with monitored natural recovery and adaptive management for the Lower Passaic River Study Area. The cost of such remedy is estimated to be $726 million. Previously, on April 11, 2014, the EPA released its Focused Feasibility Study (the “FFS”) with its proposed plan for remediating the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area. The FFS calls for bank-to-bank dredging and capping of the riverbed of that portion of the river and estimates a range of the present value of aggregate remediation costs of approximately $953 million to approximately $1.73 billion, although estimates of the costs and the timing of costs are inherently imprecise. On March 3, 2016, the EPA issued the final Record of Decision (ROD) as to the remedy for the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, with the maximum estimated cost being reduced by the EPA from $1.73 billion to $1.38 billion, primarily due to a reduction in the amount of cubic yards of material that will be dredged. In October

2016, Occidental Chemical Corporation, the successor to the entity that operated the Diamond Alkali chemical manufacturing facility, reached an agreement with the EPA to develop the design for this proposed remedy at an estimated cost of $165 million. The EPA has estimated that it will take approximately four years to develop this design. On June 30, 2018, Occidental Chemical Corporation sued over 120 parties, including the Company, in the United States District Court for New Jersey seeking recovery of response costs under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act ("CERCLA").
No final allocations of responsibility have been made among the numerous PRPs that have received notices from the EPA, there are numerous identified PRPs that have not yet received PRP notices from the EPA, and there are likely many PRPs that have not yet been identified. In September 2017, EPA hired a third-party allocator to develop an allocation of costs among a large number of the parties identified by EPA as having potential responsibility, including the Company. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the third-party allocator issued his report, which determined the range for EnPro's liability to be between $35,000 and $950,000.
Based on our evaluation of the site, during 2014 we accrued a liability of $3.5 million related to environmental remediation costs associated with the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, which was our estimate of the low end of a range of reasonably possible costs, with no estimate within the range being a better estimate than the minimum. Since 2016, we incurred $0.9 million in remediation costs. Based on the third party allocator's report, on December 31, 2020, we reduced the reserve to $1.6 million. Our future remediation costs could be significantly greater than the $1.0 million accrual at December 31, 2020. With respect to the upper nine miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, we are unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible costs.
Except with respect to the lower eight miles of the Lower Passaic River Study Area, we are unable to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss related to any other contingent environmental liability based on our prior ownership of Crucible. See the section entitled “Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc.” in this footnote for additional information.
Crucible Steel Corporation a/k/a Crucible, Inc.
Crucible, which was engaged primarily in the manufacture and distribution of high technology specialty metal products, was a wholly owned subsidiary of Coltec until 1983 when its assets and liabilities were distributed to a new Coltec subsidiary, Crucible Materials Corporation. Coltec sold a majority of the outstanding shares of Crucible Materials Corporation in 1985 and divested its remaining minority interest in 2004. Crucible Materials Corporation filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in May 2009 and is no longer conducting operations.
We have certain ongoing obligations, which are included in other liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, including workers’ compensation, retiree medical and other retiree benefit matters, in addition to those mentioned previously related to Coltec’s period of ownership of Crucible. Based on Coltec’s prior ownership of Crucible, we may have certain additional contingent liabilities, including liabilities in one or more significant environmental matters included in the matters discussed in “Environmental” above. We are investigating these matters. Except with respect to those matters for which we have an accrued liability as discussed in "Environmental" above, we are unable to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss related to these contingent liabilities.
Warranties
We provide warranties on many of our products. The specific terms and conditions of these warranties vary depending on the product and the market in which the product is sold. We record a liability based upon estimates of the costs we may incur under our warranties based upon a review of historical warranty experience and information regarding the number, nature, and dollar valuation of specific warranty claims being made by customers. Adjustments are made to the liability as claims data and historical experience necessitate.
Changes in the carrying amount of the product warranty liability for the years ended December 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 are as follows:

Asbestos Insurance Receivables
The historical business operations of certain of our subsidiaries resulted in a substantial volume of asbestos litigation in which plaintiffs alleged personal injury or death as a result of exposure to asbestos fibers. In 2010, certain of these subsidiaries, including Garlock Sealing Technologies, LLC ("GST"), filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of North Carolina (the "Bankruptcy Court"). An additional subsidiary filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition with the Bankruptcy Court in 2017. The filings were part of a claims resolution process for an efficient and permanent resolution of all pending and future asbestos claims through court approval of a plan of reorganization to establish a facility to resolve and pay these asbestos claims.
These claims against GST and other subsidiaries were resolved pursuant to a joint plan of reorganization (the "Joint Plan") filed with the Bankruptcy Court which was consummated on July 29, 2017. Under the Joint Plan, GST and EnPro Holdings retained their rights to seek reimbursement under insurance policies for any amounts they have paid in the past to resolve asbestos claims, including contributions made to the asbestos claims resolution trust established pursuant to the Joint Plan (the "Trust"). These policies include a number of primary and excess general liability insurance policies that were purchased by EnPro Holdings and were in effect prior to January 1, 1976 (the “Pre-GST Coverage Block”). The policies provide coverage for “occurrences” happening during the policy periods and cover losses associated with product liability claims against EnPro Holdings and certain of its subsidiaries. Asbestos claims against GST are not covered under these policies because GST was not a subsidiary of EnPro Holdings prior to 1976. The Joint Plan provides that EnPro Holdings may retain the first $25 million of any settlements and judgments collected for non-GST asbestos claims related to insurance policies in the Pre-GST Coverage Block and EnPro Holdings and the Trust will share equally in any settlements and judgments EnPro Holdings may collect in excess of $25 million. To date, EnPro Holdings has collected almost $22 million in settlements for non-GST asbestos claims related to the Pre-GST Coverage Block and anticipates further collections once the Trust begins making claims payments on non-GST Claims.
At December 31, 2020, approximately $4.2 million of available products hazard limits or insurance receivables existed under primary and excess general liability insurance policies other than the Pre-GST Coverage Block (the "GST Coverage Block") from solvent carriers, which we believe is available to cover contributions made to the Trust under the Joint Plan as the Trust uses those contributions to pay GST asbestos claims covered by policies in the GST Coverage Block. There are specific agreements in place with carriers regarding the remaining available coverage. We believe that all of the $4.2 million of insurance proceeds will ultimately be collected, although there can be no assurance that the insurance companies will make the payments as and when due. In the fourth quarter of 2020, we billed an insurer in the GST Coverage Block $0.8 million for GST Claims paid by the Trust to date.
We also believe that EnPro Holdings will bill, and could collect over time, as much as $10 million of insurance coverage for non-GST asbestos claims to reimburse it for Trust payments to non-GST Trust claimants. After EnPro Holdings collects the first approximately $3 million of that coverage, remaining collections for non-GST asbestos claims from the Pre-Garlock Coverage Block will be shared equally with the Trust.
GST has received $8.8 million of insurance recoveries from insolvent carriers since 2007 and may receive additional payments from insolvent carriers in the future. No anticipated insolvent carrier collections are included in the $4.2 million of anticipated collections. The insurance available to cover current and future asbestos claims is from comprehensive general liability and excess liability policies that cover EnPro Holdings and certain of its other subsidiaries in addition to GST for periods prior to 1985 and therefore could be subject to potential competing claims of other covered subsidiaries and their assignees.
