These forward-looking statements are based upon information currently available to the Company and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and other factors that could cause the performance, prospects, or opportunities to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results referred to in the forward-looking statements the Company makes in this report include:

effects on earnings of any significant impairment of goodwill or intangible assets;
prolonged declines or disruption in one or more markets we serve, such as heating, ventilation, air conditioning ("HVAC"), refrigeration, power generation, oil and gas, unit material handling or water heating;
product liability and other litigation, or claims by end users, government agencies or others that our products or our customers’ applications failed to perform as anticipated, particularly in high volume applications or where such failures are alleged to be the cause of property or casualty claims;
our overall debt levels and our ability to repay principal and interest on our outstanding debt, including debt assumed or incurred in connection with the Rexnord Transaction;
our dependence on key suppliers and the potential effects of supply disruptions;
seasonal impact on sales of our products into HVAC systems and other residential applications;

REGAL BELOIT CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 3, 2021
(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying (a) Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet of Regal Beloit Corporation (the “Company”) as of January 2, 2021, which has been derived from audited Consolidated Financial Statements, and (b) unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of April 3, 2021 and for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.
It is suggested that these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 2, 2021.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial results have been made. Except as otherwise discussed, such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three months ended April 3, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending January 1, 2022.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company uses estimates in accounting for, among other items, allowance for doubtful accounts; excess and obsolete inventory; share-based compensation; acquisitions; product warranty obligations; pension and post retirement assets and liabilities; derivative fair values; goodwill and other asset impairments; health care reserves; retirement benefits; rebates and incentives; litigation claims and contingencies, including environmental matters; and income taxes. The Company accounts for changes to estimates and assumptions when warranted by factually based experience.
The Company operates on a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31.
Adopted Accounting Standards
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The ASU simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles of Topic 740, and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This ASU becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard as of January 3, 2021, the beginning of fiscal 2021, with no material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Inventories
The following table presents approximate percentage distribution between major classes of inventories:
April 3, 2021January 2, 2021
Raw Material and Work in Process50.3%48.7%
Finished Goods and Purchased Parts49.7%51.3%

Inventories are stated at cost, which is not in excess of market. Cost for approximately 49.1% of the Company's inventory at April 3, 2021, and 50.0% at January 2, 2021 was determined using the last-in, first-out ("LIFO") method.

Property, Plant, and Equipment
The following table presents property, plant, and equipment by major classification (dollars in millions):

For the three months ended April 3, 2021, the Company recognized no asset impairment related to the transfer of assets to held for sale. For the three months ended March 28, 2020, the Company recognized $1.5 million of asset impairments related to the transfer of assets to held for sale.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of electric motors, electrical motion controls, power generation and power transmission products. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the product passes to the customer or the service is provided and is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for such goods or services.
Nature of Goods and Services
The Company sells products with multiple applications as well as customized products that have a single application such as those manufactured for its OEM customers. The Company reports in four operating segments: Commercial Systems, Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Power Transmission Solutions. See Note 6 for a description of the different segments.
Nature of Performance Obligations
The Company’s contracts with customers typically consist of purchase orders, invoices and master supply agreements. At contract inception, across all four segments, the Company assesses the goods and services promised in its sales arrangements with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service that is distinct. The Company’s primary performance obligations consist of product sales and customized system/solutions.
Product:
The nature of products varies from segment to segment but across all segments, individual products are not integrated and represent separate performance obligations.
Customized system/solutions:
The Company provides customized system/solutions which consist of multiple products engineered and designed to specific customer specification, combined or integrated into one combined solution for a specific customer application. The goods are transferred to the customer and revenue is typically recognized over time as the performance obligations are satisfied.
When Performance Obligations are Satisfied
For performance obligations related to substantially all of the Company's product sales, the Company determines that the customer obtains control upon shipment and recognizes revenue accordingly. Once a product has shipped, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. The Company considers control to have transferred upon shipment because the Company has a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, the Company has transferred physical possession of the asset, and the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset.
11


For a limited number of contracts, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue over time. The Company satisfies its performance obligations over time and the Company uses a cost-based input method to measure progress. In applying the cost-based method of revenue recognition, the Company uses actual costs incurred to date relative to the total estimated costs for the contract in conjunction with the customer's commitment to perform in determining the amount of revenue and cost to recognize. The Company has determined that the cost-based input method provides a faithful depiction of the transfer of goods to the customer.
Payment Terms
The arrangement with the customer states the final terms of the sale, including the description, quantity, and price of each product or service purchased. Payment terms vary by customer but typically range from due upon delivery to 120 days after delivery. For contracts recognized at a point in time, revenue and billing typically occur simultaneously. The Company generally has payment terms with its customers of one year or less and has elected the practical expedient applicable to such contracts not to consider the time value of money. For contracts recognized using the cost-based input method, revenue recognized in excess of customer billings and billings in excess of revenue recognized are reviewed to determine the net asset or net liability position and classified as such on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Returns, Refunds, and Warranties
The Company’s contracts do not explicitly offer a “general” right of return to its customers (e.g. customers ordered excess products and return unused items). Warranties are classified as either assurance type or service type warranties. A warranty is considered an assurance type warranty if it provides the customer with assurance that the product will function as intended. A warranty that goes above and beyond ensuring basic functionality is considered a service type warranty. The Company generally only offers limited warranties which are considered to be assurance type warranties and are not accounted for as separate performance obligations. Customers generally receive repair or replacement on products that do not function to specification. Estimated product warranties are provided for specific product groups and the Company accrues for estimated future warranty cost in the period in which the sale is recognized. The Company estimates the accrual requirements based on historical warranty loss experience and the cost is included in Cost of Sales.
Volume Rebates
In some cases, the nature of the Company’s contract may give rise to variable consideration including volume based sales incentives. If the customer achieves specific sales targets, they are entitled to rebates. The Company estimates the projected amount of the rebates that will be achieved and recognizes the estimated costs as a reduction to Net Sales as revenue is recognized.

3. HELD FOR SALE, DIVESTITURES AND ACQUISITIONS
Assets Held for Sale

The balances that were classified as Assets Held for Sale as of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021 were $8.0 million and $9.1 million, respectively.

Acquisition Pending

On February 15, 2021, the Company entered into definitive agreements with Rexnord Corporation (“Rexnord”), Land Newco, Inc., a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Rexnord (“Land”), and Phoenix 2021, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), with respect to a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the “Rexnord Transaction”) pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of those definitive agreements discussed below, (1) Rexnord will transfer (or cause to be transferred) to Land substantially all of the assets, and Land will assume substantially all of the liabilities, of Rexnord’s Process & Motion Control business (“PMC Business”) (the “Reorganization”), (2) after which, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Land (“Land common stock”) held by a subsidiary of Rexnord will be distributed in a series of distributions to Rexnord’s stockholders (the distributions, and the final distribution of Land common stock from Rexnord to Rexnord’s stockholders, which is to be made pro rata for no consideration, the “Spin-Off”) and (3) immediately after the Spin-Off, Merger Sub will merge with and into Land (the “Merger”) and all shares of Land common stock (other than those held by Rexnord, Land, the Company, Merger Sub or their respective subsidiaries) will be converted into the right to receive shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Company common stock”), as calculated and subject to adjustment as set forth in the Merger Agreement (as defined below). When the Merger is completed, Land (which at that time will hold the PMC Business) will be a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

The definitive agreements the Company entered into in connection with the Rexnord Transaction include an Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and among Rexnord, Land, Merger Sub and the Company (the “Merger Agreement”), a Separation and Distribution Agreement, by and among Rexnord, Land and the Company and certain ancillary agreements.

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, the Merger Agreement provides that the Company shall, to the extent required by the Merger Agreement, in certain circumstances in which additional shares of Company common stock are issued at closing to holders of Land common stock, declare a special dividend to the Company's stockholders immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger (the “Company Special Dividend”). The existence and magnitude of the dividend will depend on whether and to what extent the Company is able to count certain overlapping shareholders of the Company and Rexnord in satisfying the tax requirements applicable to a Reverse Morris Trust transaction. In the event that the Company Special Dividend is required to be paid, it could range in amount between zero and approximately $2.0 billion.

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, the Company has entered into certain financing arrangements, which are described in Note 7.

Closing of the Rexnord Transaction is subject to various closing conditions, including the receipt of the approval of the Company's and Rexnord's shareholders, the receipt of regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

The Rexnord Transaction is described more fully in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 19, 2021, and this description is qualified in its entirety by the description set forth in that report.

Credit Agreement
On March 17, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment (the "First Amendment") with the Company's lenders to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated August 27, 2018 (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and the lenders named therein. The First Amendment amended the Credit Agreement to (i) permit the consummation of the Rexnord Transaction and the incurrence of indebtedness and liens in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $2.1 billion in connection with the Rexnord Transaction; (ii) provide an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the revolving commitments under the Credit Agreement from $500.0 million to $750.0 million, (iii) provide an increase in the maximum leverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of the Company’s consolidated funded debt to EBITDA) permitted as of the last day of any fiscal quarter to 4.50 to 1.00, to the extent the funded debt to EBITDA ratio exceeds 3.00 to 1.00 upon the consummation of the Rexnord Transaction. The amendment is subject to customary and market provisions.
Prior to the First Amendment, the Credit Agreement provided for a (i) 5-year unsecured term loan facility in an original aggregate principal amount of $900.0 million (the “Term Facility”) and (ii) a 5-year unsecured multicurrency revolving facility in an aggregate principal amount as of the effectiveness of the First Amendment of $750.0 million (the “Multicurrency Revolving Facility”), including a $50.0 million letter of credit sub facility, available for general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at floating rates based upon indices determined by the currency of the borrowing, plus an applicable margin determined by reference to the Company's consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio or at an alternative base rate.
The Term Facility was drawn in full on August 27, 2018 with the proceeds settling the amounts owed under prior borrowings. The Term Facility requires quarterly amortization at a rate starting at 5.0% per annum, increasing to 7.5% per annum after three years and further increasing to 10.0% per annum for the last year of the Term Facility, unless previously prepaid. The weighted average interest rate on the Term Facility for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020 was 1.5% and 3.0%, respectively. The Credit Agreement requires that the Company prepay the loans under the Term Facility with 100% of the net cash proceeds received from specified asset sales and borrowed money indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions.
At April 3, 2021, the Company had no borrowings under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility, $0.2 million of standby letters of credit issued under the facility, and $749.8 million of available borrowing capacity. For the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020 under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility, the average daily balance in borrowings was $7.4 million and $109.8 million, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate was 1.4% and 2.8%, respectively. The Company pays a
17


non-use fee on the aggregate unused amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Facility at a rate determined by reference to its consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio.
Senior Notes
At April 3, 2021, the Company had $400.0 million of senior notes (the “Notes”) outstanding. The Notes consist of $400.0 million in senior notes in a private placement which were issued in five tranches with maturities from ten to twelve years and carry fixed interest rates. As of April 3, 2021, $230.0 million and $170.0 million of the Notes are included in Current Maturities of Long-Term Debt and Long-Term Debt, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Compliance with Financial Covenants

The Credit Agreement and the Notes require the Company to meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants contained in the Notes and the Credit Agreement as of April 3, 2021.
Other Notes Payable

At April 3, 2021, other notes payable of approximately $4.2 million were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 4.9%. At January 2, 2021, other notes payable of approximately $4.6 million were outstanding with a weighted average rate of 4.9%.

Financing Arrangements Related to Rexnord Transaction

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, on February 15, 2021, the Company entered into a debt commitment letter (the “Bridge Commitment Letter”) and related fee letters with Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Barclays committed to provide approximately $2.1 billion in an aggregate principal amount of senior bridge loans under a 364-day senior bridge loan credit facility (the “Bridge Facility”). The proceeds of the loans under the Bridge Facility may be used by the Company to (i) pay the Company Special Dividend, (ii) redeem the Notes due in 2023 and (iii) to pay fees and expenses in connection with the Rexnord Transaction.

Further, the Company entered into an additional debt commitment letter (the “Backstop Commitment Letter”) and related fee letters with Barclays, pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Barclays committed to provide a 364-day senior bridge loan credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to approximately $1.1 billion to prepay in full the aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement in the event that certain required consents from the lenders under the Credit Agreement could not be obtained. On March 17, 2021, the Company entered into the First Amendment to, among other things (i) permit the consummation of the Rexnord Transaction, as applicable, (ii) permit the incurrence of indebtedness to finance the Company Special Dividend and to finance the cash payment of Land to a subsidiary of Rexnord (the "Land Cash Payment") as contemplated by the Rexnord Transaction; and (iii) provide an increase of $250.0 million in the aggregate principal amount of the revolving commitments under the Existing Credit Agreement, as described in detail above under "Credit Agreement". Upon the effectiveness of the First Amendment, the Backstop Commitment Letter and the commitments thereunder were terminated.

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, Land also entered into a debt commitment letter (the “Land Commitment Letter”) and related fee letters with Barclays, pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Barclays committed to provide approximately $487.0 million of bridge loans under a 364-day senior bridge loan facility to be used to pay the Land Cash Payment. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement the Company and Land may enter into a permitted alternative financing to replace the commitments under the Land Commitment Letter. If the Rexnord Transaction is consummated, the indebtedness contemplated by the Land Commitment Letter will become indebtedness of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

18


The Company anticipates incurring significant fees and expenses in connection with the Rexnord Transaction, the amount of which is uncertain. In addition, the amount of the Company Special Dividend depends on the number of additional shares of the Company's common stock that must be issued in connection with the Rexnord Transaction in order to satisfy tax requirements applicable to a Reverse Morris Trust transaction. The size of the dividend that will ultimately be declared is uncertain and will remain so until the closing of the Rexnord Transaction.

Other Disclosures

Based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities and credit quality, which are classified as Level 2 inputs (see also Note 15), the approximate fair value of the Company's total debt was $1,032.1 million and $1,085.8 million as of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021, respectively.

8. RETIREMENT AND POST RETIREMENT HEALTH CARE PLANS

The following table presents the Company’s net periodic benefit cost (income) components (in millions):

Expected Return on Plan Assets(3.1)(3.3)
Amortization of Prior Service Cost and Net Actuarial Loss0.4 0.1 
Net Periodic Benefit Income$(0.9)$(0.3)

The service cost component is included in Cost of Sales and Operating Expenses. All other components of net periodic benefit costs are included in Other Income, Net on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
For the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, the Company contributed $1.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively, to post retirement plans. The Company expects to make total contributions of $5.8 million in 2021. The Company contributed a total of $8.5 million in fiscal 2020.

9. LEASES

The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, warehouses/distribution centers, office space, machinery, equipment, IT assets, and vehicles. If the contract provides the Company the right to substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the identified asset and the right to direct the use of the identified asset, it is considered to be or contain a lease. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the expected lease term.

As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. The incremental borrowing rate is calculated based upon the sovereign treasury rate for the currency in which the lease liability is denominated when the Company takes possession of the leased asset, adjusted for various factors, such as term and internal credit spread. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentive and initial direct costs incurred.

Leases entered into may include one or more options to renew. The renewal terms can extend the lease term from one to twenty-five years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company's sole discretion. Renewal option periods are included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability when the exercise is reasonably certain to occur. Some leases include options to terminate the lease upon breach of contract and are remeasured at that point in time.

The depreciable life of leased assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise.

Some of the Company's lease agreements include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation or are based on an index rate. These increases are reflected as variable lease payments and are included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease
19


liability. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Operating leases are included in the following asset and liability accounts on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet: Operating Lease Assets, Current Operating Lease Liabilities, and Noncurrent Operating Lease Liabilities. ROU assets and liabilities arising from finance leases are included in the following asset and liability accounts on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet: Net Property, Plant and Equipment, Current Maturities of Long-Term Debt, and Long-Term Debt.

10. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Repurchase of Common Stock

At a meeting of the Board of Directors on October 25, 2019, the Company's Board of Directors approved the authorization to purchase up to $250.0 million of shares. The Company did not repurchase and retire any common stock during the three months ended April 3, 2021. For the three months ended March 28, 2020, the Company repurchased and retired 315,072 shares of its common stock at an average cost of $79.38 for a total cost of $25.0 million.

As of April 3, 2021, there was approximately $210.0 million in common stock available for repurchase under the October 2019 program.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company recognized approximately $3.3 million and $2.7 million in share-based compensation expense for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for share-based compensation expense was $0.6 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, respectively. The Company recognizes compensation expense on grants of share-based compensation awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of each award. As of April 3, 2021, total unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation awards was approximately $28.3 million, net of estimated forfeitures, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted average period of approximately 2.1 years.

Approximately 1.6 million shares were available for future grant under the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan as of April 3, 2021.

Stock Appreciation Rights
The Company uses stock settled stock appreciation rights (“SARs”) as a form of share-based incentive awards. SARs are the right to receive stock in an amount equal to the appreciation in value of a share of stock over the base price per share. Shares granted prior to fiscal 2020 generally vest over five years on the anniversary date while shares granted in or after fiscal 2020 generally vest over three years on the anniversary date of the grant date. Generally all grants expire 10 years from the grant date. All grants are made at prices equal to the fair market value of the stock on the grant date. For the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, expired and canceled shares were immaterial.
The following table presents share-based compensation activity for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020 (in millions):

Risk-free interest rate0.6 %1.5 %
Expected life (years)5.07.0
Expected volatility32.5 %25.2 %
Expected dividend yield0.9 %1.4 %

The average risk-free interest rate is based on the US Treasury security rate as of the grant date. The expected dividend yield is based on the projected annual dividend as a percentage of the estimated market value of the Company's common stock as of the grant date. The Company estimated the expected volatility using a weighted average of daily historical volatility of the Company's stock price over the expected term of the award. The Company estimated the expected term using historical data.

Compensation expense recognized related to SARs was $0.8 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021.
As of April 3, 2021, there was $8.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested SARs that is expected to be recognized as a charge to earnings over a weighted average period of 2.6 years.

The number of SARs expected to vest is materially consistent with those outstanding and not yet exercisable.
Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units
Restricted stock awards ("RSA") and restricted stock units ("RSU") consist of shares or the rights to shares of the Company's stock. The awards are restricted such that they are subject to substantial risk of forfeiture and to restrictions on their sale or other transfer. As defined in the individual grant agreements, acceleration of vesting may occur under a change in control, death or disability.
The following table presents a summary of RSA award activity for the three months ended April 3, 2021:

RSUs granted prior to fiscal 2020 vest on the third anniversary of the grant date while RSUs granted in or after fiscal 2020 vest one third each year on the anniversary of the grant date, provided the holder of the RSUs is continuously employed by the Company until the vesting date. Compensation expense recognized related to the RSUs was $1.3 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021.
As of April 3, 2021, there was $11.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested RSUs that is expected to be recognized as a charge to earnings over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.
Performance Share Units
Performance share units ("PSU") consist of shares or the rights to shares of the Company's stock which are awarded to employees of the Company. These shares are payable upon the determination that the Company achieved certain established performance targets and can range from 0% to 200% of the targeted payout based on the actual results. PSUs have a performance period of 3 years and vest 3 years from the grant date and are issued at a performance target of 100%. The PSUs have performance criteria based on a return on invested capital metric or they have performance criteria using returns relative to the Company's peer group. As set forth in the individual award agreements, acceleration of vesting may occur under a change in control, death or disability. There are no voting rights associated with these instruments until vesting occurs and a share of stock is issued. Some of the PSU awards are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation method as of the grant date while others are valued using the closing market price as of the grant date depending on the performance criteria for the award.

The assumptions used in the Company's Monte Carlo simulation were as follows:
20212020
Risk-free interest rate0.2 %1.4 %
Expected life (years)3.03.0
Expected volatility37.0 %24.0 %

Forfeited(3,197)84.46 
Unvested PSUs as of April 3, 2021117,450 $105.66 2.1
Compensation expense for awards granted is recognized based on the grant issuance value or the expected payout ratio depending upon the performance criterion for the award, net of estimated forfeitures. Compensation expense recognized related to PSUs was $0.9 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021. Total unrecognized compensation expense for all PSUs granted as of April 3, 2021 is estimated to be $7.8 million which is expected to be recognized as a charge to earnings over a weighted average period of 2.1 years.

11. INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate for the three months ended April 3, 2021 was 23.2% versus 22.9% for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The change in the effective tax rate for the three months ended April 3, 2021 was primarily driven by the mix of earnings.
As of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021, the Company had approximately $9.3 million and $6.8 million of unrecognized tax benefits, all of which would impact the effective income tax rate if recognized. Potential interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in income tax expense. The Company had approximately $2.8 million and $2.7 million of accrued interest as of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021, respectively.
With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to US Federal and state/local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2015, and the Company is no longer subject to non-US income tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to 2013.

12. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Diluted earnings per share is calculated based upon earnings applicable to common shares divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period adjusted for the effect of other dilutive securities. The amount of the anti-dilutive shares were zero and 0.4 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, respectively. The following table reconciles the basic and diluted shares used in earnings per share calculations for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020 (in millions):

One of the Company's subsidiaries that it acquired in 2007 is subject to numerous claims filed in various jurisdictions relating to certain sub-fractional motors that were primarily manufactured through 2004 and that were included as components of residential and commercial ventilation units manufactured and sold in high volumes by a third party. These ventilation units are subject to product safety requirements and other potential regulation of their performance by government agencies such as the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC”). The claims generally allege that the ventilation units were the cause of fires. The Company has recorded an estimated liability for incurred claims. Based on the current facts, the Company cannot assure that these claims, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on its subsidiary's financial condition. The Company's subsidiary cannot reasonably predict the outcome of these claims, the nature or extent of any CPSC or other remedial actions, if any, that the Company's subsidiary may need to undertake with respect to motors that remain in the field, or the costs that may be incurred, some of which could be significant.
The Company is, from time to time, party to litigation and other legal or regulatory proceedings that arise in the normal course of its business operations and the outcomes of which are subject to significant uncertainty, including product warranty and liability claims, contract disputes and environmental, asbestos, intellectual property, employment and other litigation matters. The Company's products are used in a variety of industrial, commercial and residential applications that subject the Company to claims that the use of its products is alleged to have resulted in injury or other damage. Many of these matters will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Management conducts regular reviews, including updates from legal counsel, to assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise in judgment. The Company accrues for exposures in amounts that it believes are adequate, and the Company does not believe that the outcome of any such lawsuit individually or collectively will have a material effect on the Company's financial position, its results of operations or its cash flows.

These liabilities are included in Other Accrued Expenses and Other Noncurrent Liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

14. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to its ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed using derivative instruments are commodity price risk, currency exchange risk, and interest rate risk. Forward contracts on certain commodities are entered into to manage the price risk associated with forecasted purchases of materials used in the Company's manufacturing process. Forward contracts on certain currencies are entered into to manage forecasted cash flows in certain foreign currencies. Interest rate swaps are utilized to manage interest rate risk associated with the Company's floating rate borrowings.
The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to various financial agreements, including its commodity hedging transactions, foreign currency exchange contracts and interest rate swap agreements. Exposure to counterparty credit risk is managed by limiting counterparties to major international banks and financial institutions meeting established credit guidelines and continually monitoring their compliance with the credit guidelines. The Company does not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk. The Company does not anticipate non-performance by its counterparties, but cannot provide assurances.
The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company designates commodity forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted purchases of commodities, currency forward contracts as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign currency cash flows and interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges of forecasted LIBOR-based interest payments. There were no significant collateral deposits on derivative financial instruments as of April 3, 2021 or March 28, 2020.
Cash Flow Hedges
For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of AOCI and reclassified into the same line within the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income as the earnings effect of the hedged item in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or changes in market value of derivatives not designated as hedges are recognized in current earnings.
At April 3, 2021, the Company had $6.7 million, net of tax, of derivative gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At January 2, 2021, the Company had $3.7 million, net of tax, of derivative gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that was subsequently realized in earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.

15. FAIR VALUE
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy:
Level 1Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or
Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or
Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability
Level 3Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability
The Company uses the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The fair values of cash equivalents and short-term deposits approximate their carrying values as of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021, due to the short period of time to maturity and are classified using Level 1 inputs. The fair values of trade receivables and accounts payable approximate the carrying values due to the short period of time to maturity. See Note 7 for disclosure of the approximate fair value of the Company's debt at April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021.
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021 (in millions):

Level 1 fair value measurements for assets held in a Rabbi Trust are unadjusted quoted prices.
Level 2 fair value measurements for derivative assets and liabilities are measured using quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities. Interest rate swaps are valued based on the discounted cash flows for the LIBOR forward yield curve for a swap with similar contractual terms. Foreign currency forwards are valued based on exchange rates quoted by domestic and foreign banks for similar instruments. Commodity forwards are valued based on observable market transactions of forward commodity prices.

16. RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES
The Company incurred restructuring and restructuring-related costs on projects during fiscal 2021 and 2020. Restructuring costs include employee termination and plant relocation costs. Restructuring-related costs include costs directly associated with actions resulting from the Company's simplification initiatives, such as asset write-downs or accelerated depreciation due to shortened useful lives in connection with site closures, discretionary employment benefit costs and other facility rationalization costs. Restructuring costs for employee termination expenses are generally required to be accrued over the employees' remaining service period while restructuring costs for plant relocation costs and restructuring-related costs are generally required to be expensed as incurred.

The following table presents a reconciliation of provisions and payments for the restructuring projects for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020 (in millions):

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this Item 2 to “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” refer collectively to Regal Beloit Corporation and its subsidiaries.
Overview
Regal Beloit Corporation (NYSE: RBC), based in Beloit, Wisconsin (USA), is a leading manufacturer of electric motors, electrical motion controls, power generation and power transmission products serving markets throughout the world.

Operating Segments

Our company is comprised of four operating segments: Commercial Systems, Industrial Systems, Climate Solutions and Power Transmission Solutions.

A description of the four operating segments is as follows:

Commercial Systems segment produces fractional to approximately 5 horsepower AC and DC motors, electronic variable speed controls, fans, and blowers for commercial applications. These products serve markets including commercial building ventilation and HVAC, pool and spa, irrigation, dewatering, agriculture, and general commercial equipment.

Industrial Systems segment produces integral motors, generators, alternators and switchgear for industrial applications, along with aftermarket parts and kits to support such products. These products serve markets including agriculture, marine, mining, oil and gas, food and beverage, data centers, healthcare, prime and standby power, and general industrial equipment.

Climate Solutions segment produces small motors, electronic variable speed controls and air moving solutions serving markets including residential and light commercial HVAC, water heaters and commercial refrigeration.

Power Transmission Solutions segment produces, sells and services belt and chain drives, helical and worm gearing, mounted and unmounted bearings, couplings, modular plastic belts, conveying chains and components, hydraulic pump drives, large open gearing and specialty mechanical products serving markets including e-commerce, alternative energy, beverage, bulk handling, metals, special machinery, energy, aerospace and general industrial.

Components of Profit and Loss

Net Sales. We sell our products to a variety of manufacturers, distributors and end users. Our customers consist of a large cross-section of businesses, ranging from Fortune 100 companies to small businesses. A number of our products are sold to Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEMs"), who incorporate our products, such as electric motors, into products they manufacture, and many of our products are built to the requirements of our customers. The majority of our sales derive from direct sales to customers by sales personnel employed by the Company, however, a significant portion of our sales are derived from sales made by manufacturer’s representatives, who are paid exclusively on commission. Our product sales are made via purchase order, long-term contract, and, in some instances, one-time purchases. Many of our products have broad customer bases, with the levels of concentration of revenues varying from business unit to business unit.

Our level of net sales for any given period is dependent upon a number of factors, including (i) the demand for our products; (ii) the strength of the economy generally and the end markets in which we compete; (iii) our customers’ perceptions of our product quality at any given time; (iv) our ability to timely meet customer demands; (v) the selling price of our products; and (vi) the weather. As a result, our total revenue has tended to experience quarterly variations and our total revenue for any particular quarter may not be indicative of future results.

We use the term “organic sales" to refer to sales from existing operations excluding (i) sales from acquired businesses recorded prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition (“Acquisition Sales”), (ii) less the amount of sales attributable to any businesses divested/to be exited, and (iii) the impact of foreign currency translation. The impact of foreign currency translation is determined by translating the respective period’s organic sales using the same currency exchange rates that were in effect during the prior year periods. We use the term “organic sales growth” to refer to the increase in our sales between periods that is attributable to organic sales. We use the term “acquisition growth” to refer to the increase in our sales between periods that is attributable to Acquisition Sales.
32



Gross Profit. Our gross profit is impacted by our levels of net sales and cost of sales. Our cost of sales consists of costs for, among other things (i) raw materials, including copper, steel and aluminum; (ii) components such as castings, bars, tools, bearings and electronics; (iii) wages and related personnel expenses for fabrication, assembly and logistics personnel; (iv) manufacturing facilities, including depreciation on our manufacturing facilities and equipment, insurance and utilities; and (v) shipping. The majority of our cost of sales consists of raw materials and components. The price we pay for commodities and components can be subject to commodity price fluctuations. We attempt to mitigate this through fixed-price agreements with suppliers and our hedging strategies. When we experience commodity price increases, we have tended to announce price increase to our customers who purchase via purchase order, with such increases generally taking effect a period of time after the public announcements. For those sales we make under long-term contracts, we tend to include material price formulas that specify quarterly or semi-annual price adjustments based on a variety of factors, including commodity prices.

Outside of general economic cyclicality, our business units experience different levels of variation in gross profit from quarter to quarter based on factors specific to each business. For example, a portion of our Climate Solutions segment manufactures products that are used in air conditioning applications. As a result, our sales for that business tend to be lower in the first and fourth quarters and higher in the second and third quarters. In contrast, our Commercial Systems segment, Industrial Systems segment and Power Transmission Solutions segment have a broad customer base and a variety of applications, thereby helping to mitigate large quarter-to-quarter fluctuations outside of general economic conditions.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses consist primarily of (i) general and administrative expenses; (ii) sales and marketing expenses; (iii) general engineering and research and development expenses; and (iv) handling costs incurred in conjunction with distribution activities. Personnel related costs are our largest operating expense.

Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of costs for (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel expenses related to our executive, finance, human resource, information technology, legal and operations functions; (ii) occupancy expenses; (iii) technology related costs; (iv) depreciation and amortization; and (v) corporate-related travel. The majority of our general and administrative costs are for salaries and related personnel expenses. These costs can vary by business given the location of our different manufacturing operations.

Our sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of costs for (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel expenses related to our sales and marketing function; (ii) internal and external sales commissions and bonuses; (iii) travel, lodging and other out-of-pocket expenses associated with our selling efforts; and (iv) other related overhead.

Our general engineering and research and development expenses consist primarily of costs for (i) salaries, benefits and other personnel expenses; (ii) the design and development of new energy efficiency products and enhancements; (iii) quality assurance and testing; and (iv) other related overhead. Our research and development efforts tend to be targeted toward developing new products that would allow us to maintain or gain additional market share, whether in new or existing applications. While these costs make up an insignificant portion of our operating expenses in the Power Transmission Solutions segment, they are more substantial in our Commercial Systems, Industrial Systems and Climate Solutions segments. In particular, a large driver of our research and development efforts in those three segments is energy efficiency, which generally means using less electrical power to produce more mechanical power.

Operating Profit. Our operating profit consists of the segment gross profit less the segment operating expenses. In addition, there are shared operating costs that cover corporate and information technology expenses that are consistently allocated to the operating segments and are included in the segment operating expenses. Operating profit is a key metric used to measure year over year improvement of the segments.

Restructuring and Restructuring Related Costs. We incurred restructuring-related costs on employee termination and plant relocation costs. Restructuring related costs includes costs directly associated with actions resulting from our simplification initiatives, such as asset write-downs or accelerated depreciation due to shortened useful lives in connection with site closures, discretionary employment benefit costs and other facility rationalization costs. Restructuring costs for employee termination expenses are generally required to be accrued over the employees remaining service period while restructuring costs for plant relocation costs and restructuring-related costs are generally required to be expensed as incurred.

COVID-19 Pandemic
COVID-19 evolved during the first quarter of 2020 into a global pandemic, resulting in a severe global health crisis that drove a dramatic slowdown in global economic and social activity.

In the face of this global crisis, our first priority has been the health and safety of our associates. In response, we implemented a host of measures to help our associates stay safe, measures that have been enhanced and refined as impacts from COVID-19 grew, and as our knowledge about how to enhance their effectiveness improved.

Factors deriving from the COVID-19 response that have or may negatively impact sales and operating profit in the future include, but are not limited to: limitations on the ability of our suppliers to manufacture, or procure from manufacturers, components and raw materials used in our products, or to meet delivery requirements and commitments; limitations on the ability of our employees to perform their work due to illness caused by the pandemic or local, state, or federal orders requiring employees to remain at home; limitations on the ability of carriers to deliver our products to customers; limitations on the ability of our customers to conduct their business and purchase our products and services; reductions in demands of our customers; and limitations on the ability of our customers to pay us on a timely basis.

As part of our response to the impacts of COVID-19, we have taken actions to manage costs including an organization wide reduction in force and voluntary early retirement program. We will continue to assess the actual and expected impacts of COVID-19 and consider making further changes to our cost structure as the implications of COVID-19 continue to evolve.

Rexnord Transaction

On February 15, 2021, we entered into definitive agreements with Rexnord Corporation (“Rexnord”), Land Newco, Inc., a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Rexnord (“Land”), and Phoenix 2021, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary (“Merger Sub”), with respect to a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the “Rexnord Transaction”) pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions of those definitive agreements discussed below, (1) Rexnord will transfer (or cause to be transferred) to Land substantially all of the assets, and Land will assume substantially all of the liabilities, of Rexnord’s Process & Motion Control business (“PMC Business”) (the “Reorganization”), (2) after which, all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of Land (“Land common stock”) held by a subsidiary of Rexnord will be distributed in a series of distributions to Rexnord’s stockholders (the “Distributions”, and the final distribution of Land common stock from Rexnord to Rexnord’s stockholders, which is to be made pro rata for no consideration, the “Spin-Off”) and (3) immediately after the Spin-Off, Merger Sub will merge with and into Land (the “Merger”) and all shares of Land common stock (other than those held by Rexnord, Land, the Company, Merger Sub or their respective subsidiaries) will be converted into the right to receive shares of our common stock, $0.01 par value per share (“Company common stock”), as calculated and subject to adjustment as set forth in the Merger Agreement (as defined below). When the Merger is completed, Land (which at that time will hold the PMC Business) will be our wholly owned subsidiary.

The definitive agreements we entered into in connection with the Rexnord Transaction include an Agreement and Plan of Merger, by and among Rexnord, Land, Merger Sub and the Company (the “Merger Agreement”), a Separation and Distribution Agreement, by and among Rexnord, Land and the Company as well as and certain ancillary agreements.

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, the Merger Agreement provides that we shall, to the extent required by the Merger Agreement, in certain circumstances in which additional shares of Company common stock are issued at the closing of the Rexnord Transaction to holders of Land common stock, declare a special dividend to our shareholders immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger (the “Company Special Dividend”). The existence and magnitude of the Company Special Dividend will depend on whether and to what extent we are able to count certain overlapping shareholders of us and Rexnord in satisfying the tax requirements applicable to a Reverse Morris Trust transaction. In the event that the Company Special Dividend is required to be paid, it could range in amount between zero and approximately $2.0 billion.

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, we have entered into certain financing arrangements, which are described below under “Liquidity and Capital Resources”.

Closing of the Rexnord Transaction is subject to various closing conditions, including the consummation of the Reorganization and the Distributions, receipt of the approval of our shareholders and Rexnord's stockholders, the receipt of regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

The Rexnord Transaction is described more fully in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 19, 2021 and this description is qualified in its entirety by the description set forth therein.

Outlook
The Company is projecting increased sales growth for the second quarter which assumes no material decline in production capacity or its ability to conduct commercial operations, either from COVID-related disruptions, or other factors, including supply chain disruptions, versus levels as of the date of this report. The guidance does not take into account any costs, expenses or other effects with respect to the Rexnord Transaction.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended April 3, 2021 Compared to March 28, 2020
Net sales increased $79.9 million or 10.9% for the first quarter 2021 compared to the first quarter 2020. The increase consisted of positive organic sales of 9.1% and positive foreign currency translation of 1.8%. The increase was primarily driven by sales increases in North America and China markets offset by ongoing proactive account pruning. Gross profit increased $42.1 million or 20.7% for the first quarter 2021 as compared to the first quarter 2020. The increase in gross profit was driven by increase in volume and partially offset by increased freight and material costs. Total operating expenses for the first quarter 2021 increased $15.0 million or 11.3% as compared to the first quarter 2020. The increase was primarily driven by due diligence fees associated with the Rexnord Transaction which were offset by lower employee related wage and benefit costs.
Commercial Systems Segment net sales for the first quarter 2021 were $237.0 million, an increase of $37.6 million or 18.9% as compared to the first quarter 2020. The increase consisted of positive organic sales of 15.9% and positive foreign currency translation of 2.9%. The increase was primarily driven by strong growth in China and Asia Pacific, gains in the global commercial HVAC business and continued solid growth in the pool pump market. Gross profit increased $15.2 million or 30.2% as compared to the first quarter 2020. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by the increase in volume partially offset by increased freight cost. Total operating expenses for the first quarter 2021 were $38.0 million compared to $38.2 million in the first quarter 2020. The $0.2 million or 0.5% decrease was primarily due to lower employee related wage and benefit costs partially offset by foreign exchange losses.
Industrial Systems Segment net sales for the first quarter 2021 were $136.4 million, an increase of $6.8 million or 5.2% as compared to the first quarter 2020. The increase consisted of positive organic sales of 1.5% and positive foreign currency translation of 3.7%. The increase was primarily driven by strength in China, strong demand in India and continued growth in the data center market. Gross profit increased $3.8 million or 16.5% as compared to the first quarter 2020. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by strong volumes, favorable mix and positive price realization offset by material inflation. Total operating expenses for the first quarter 2021 and 2020 were $23.1 million, respectively. The operating expenses were flat quarter over quarter due to lower employee related wage and benefit costs and general cost savings initiatives with foreign exchange gains, partially offset by higher variable selling costs on higher sales volumes and increased administrative costs.
Climate Solutions Segment net sales were $239.1 million, an increase of $29.0 million or 13.8% as compared to the first quarter 2020. The increase consisted of positive organic sales of 14.0% offset by negative foreign currency translation of 0.2%. The increase was primarily due to continued strong demand in North American residential HVAC markets and recovering demand in EMEA, North America general industrial markets and the commercial refrigeration business. Gross profit increased $14.6 million or 24.6% compared to the first quarter 2020. The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by favorable mix in distribution and combustion and higher volumes partially offset by expedited freight resulting from electronics supply chain delays and material price increases. Total operating expenses for the first quarter 2021 were $30.7 million compared to $29.9 million in the first quarter 2020. The increase was primarily due to legal fees related to protecting Regal patents and foreign exchange offset by decreases in travel.
Power Transmission Solutions Segment net sales for the first quarter 2021 were $201.6 million, a increase of $6.5 million or 3.3% compared to first quarter 2020 net sales of $195.1 million. The increase consisted of positive organic sales of 1.8% and positive foreign currency of 1.5%. The increase was primarily driven prior year project wins in the aero end market, strength in the conveying business, healthy growth in China and recovering shorter cycle North American general industrial end markets. Gross profit for the first quarter 2021 increased $8.5 million or 12.0%. The increase was driven by higher sales volume with favorable mix while also seeing lower overhead cost driven by cost reduction initiatives. Total operating expenses for the first quarter 2021 increased $14.4 million as compared to the first quarter 2020 primarily due to due diligence fees related to the Rexnord Transaction.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
Our principal source of liquidity is cash flow provided by operating activities. In addition to operating income, other significant factors affecting our cash flow include working capital levels, capital expenditures, dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and divestitures, availability of debt financing and the ability to attract long-term capital at acceptable terms.

Cash flow provided by operating activities was $49.5 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021, a $53.2 million decrease from the three months ended March 28, 2020. The decrease is a result of increased accounts receivable, inventory and prepaid expenses and other current assets partially offset by higher accounts payable and net income in the current year for the three months ended April 3, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 28, 2020.

Cash flow used in investing activities was $11.7 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021 as compared to cash flow used in investing activities of $7.9 million for the three months ended March 28, 2020. The change was driven primarily by lower proceeds received from sales of property, plant and equipment and cash used for business acquisitions in the current year compared to the prior year.

Cash flow used in financing activities was $76.7 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021, compared to $188.7 million provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 28, 2020. We had net debt repayments of $50.3 million during the three months ended April 3, 2021, compared to net debt borrowings of $227.0 million during the three months ended March 28, 2020. There were no share repurchases for the three months ended April 3, 2021, compared to $25.0 million for the three months ended March 28, 2020. There were $12.4 million in financing fees paid for the three months ended April 3, 2021, compared to nil in the prior year.

Our working capital was $1,055.4 million at April 3, 2021, compared to $1,029.3 million at January 2, 2021. At April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021, our current ratio (which is the ratio of our current assets to current liabilities) was 2.2:1 and 2.3:1, respectively. Our working capital increased primarily due to the increase in trade receivables, inventory and prepaid expenses offset by a decrease in cash from operations and an increase in accounts payable.

The following table presents selected financial information and statistics as of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021 (in millions):

As of April 3, 2021, $550.9 million of our cash was held by foreign subsidiaries and could be used in our domestic operations if necessary. We anticipate being able to support our short-term liquidity and operating needs largely through cash generated from operations. We regularly assess our cash needs and the available sources to fund these needs which includes repatriation of foreign earnings which may be subject to withholding taxes. Under current law, we do not expect restrictions or taxes on repatriation of cash held outside of the United States to have a material effect on our overall liquidity, financial condition or the results of operations for the foreseeable future.

We will, from time to time, maintain excess cash balances which may be used to (i) fund operations, (ii) repay outstanding debt, (iii) fund acquisitions, (iv) pay dividends, (v) make investments in new product development programs, (vi) repurchase our common stock, or (vii) fund other corporate objectives.
37


Credit Agreement
On March 17, 2021, we entered into an amendment (the "First Amendment") with our lenders to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated August 27, 2018 (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and the lenders named therein. The First Amendment amended the Credit Agreement to (i) permit the consummation of the proposed transaction pursuant to the definitive agreements we entered into on February 15, 2021, among Rexnord, Land and the Merger Sub with respect to a Reverse Morris Trust transaction (the "Rexnord Transaction") and the incurrence of indebtedness and liens in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $2.1 billion in connection with the Rexnord Transaction; (ii) provide an increase in the aggregate principal amount of the revolving commitments under the Credit Agreement from $500.0 million to $750.0 million, (iii) provide an increase in the maximum leverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of our consolidated funded debt to EBITDA) permitted as of the last day of any fiscal quarter to 4.50 to 1.00, to the extent the funded debt to EBITDA ratio exceeds 3.00 to 1.00 upon the consummation of the Rexnord Transaction. The amendment is subject to customary and market provisions.
Prior to the First Amendment, the Credit Agreement provided for a (i) 5-year unsecured term loan facility in an original aggregate principal amount of $900.0 million (the “Term Facility”) and (ii) a 5-year unsecured multicurrency revolving facility in an aggregate principal amount as of the effectiveness of the First Amendment of $750.0 million (the “Multicurrency Revolving Facility”), including a $50.0 million letter of credit sub facility, available for general corporate purposes. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at floating rates based upon indices determined by the currency of the borrowing, plus an applicable margin determined by reference to our consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio or at an alternative base rate.
The Term Facility was drawn in full on August 27, 2018 with the proceeds settling the amounts owed under prior borrowings. The Term Facility requires quarterly amortization at a rate starting at 5.0% per annum, increasing to 7.5% per annum after three years and further increasing to 10.0% per annum for the last year of the Term Facility, unless previously prepaid. The weighted average interest rate on the Term Facility for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020 was 1.5% and 3.0%, respectively. The Credit Agreement requires that we prepay the loans under the Term Facility with 100% of the net cash proceeds received from specified asset sales and borrowed money indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions.
At April 3, 2021, we had no borrowings under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility, $0.2 million of standby letters of credit issued under the facility and $749.8 million of available borrowing capacity. For the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020 under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility, the average daily balance in borrowings was $7.4 million and $109.8 million, respectively and the weighted average interest rate was 1.4% and 2.8%, respectively. We pay a non-use fee on the aggregate unused amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Facility at a rate determined by reference to its consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio.
Senior Notes
At April 3, 2021, we had $400.0 million of senior notes (the “Notes”) outstanding. The Notes consist of $400.0 million in senior notes in a private placement which were issued in five tranches with maturities from ten to twelve years and carry fixed interest rates. As of April 3, 2021, $230.0 million and $170.0 million of the Notes are included in Current Maturities of Long-Term Debt and Long-Term Debt, respectively on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Notes maturing in 2021 will be paid using capacity on our Multicurrency Revolving Facility and/or cash from operations.
The following table presents details on the Notes at April 3, 2021 (in millions):
PrincipalInterest RateMaturity
Fixed Rate Series 2011A$230.0 4.8 to 5.0%July 14, 2021
Fixed Rate Series 2011A170.0 4.9 to 5.1%July 14, 2023
$400.0 
We have an interest rate swap agreement to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from interest rate risk (see also Note 14 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

Compliance with Financial Covenants

The Credit Agreement and the Notes require us to meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. We were in compliance with all financial covenants contained in the Notes and the Credit Agreement as of April 3, 2021.

38


Other Notes Payable

At April 3, 2021, other notes payable of approximately $4.2 million were outstanding with a weighted average interest rate of 4.9%. At January 2, 2021, other notes payable of approximately $4.6 million were outstanding with a weighted average rate of 4.9%.

Financing Arrangements Related to Rexnord Transaction

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, on February 15, 2021, we entered into a debt commitment letter (the “Bridge Commitment Letter”) and related fee letters with Barclays Bank PLC (“Barclays”), pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Barclays committed to provide approximately $2.1 billion in an aggregate principal amount of senior bridge loans under a 364-day senior bridge loan credit facility (the “Bridge Facility”). The proceeds of the loans under the Bridge Facility may be used by us to (i) pay the Company Special Dividend, (ii) redeem the Notes due in 2023 and (iii) to pay fees and expenses in connection with the Rexnord Transaction.

Further, we entered into an additional debt commitment letter (the “Backstop Commitment Letter”) and related fee letters with Barclays, pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Barclays committed to provide 364-day senior bridge loan credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to approximately $1.1 billion to prepay in full the aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement in the event that certain required consents from the lenders under the Credit Agreement could not be obtained. On March 17, 2021, we entered into the First Amendment to, among other things (i) permit the consummation of the Rexnord Transaction, as applicable, (ii) permit the incurrence of indebtedness to finance the Company Special Dividend and to finance the cash payment of Land to a subsidiary of Rexnord (the "Land Cash Payment") as contemplated by the Rexnord Transaction; and (iii) provide an increase of $250.0 million in the aggregate principal amount of the revolving commitments under the Existing Credit Agreement, as described in detail above under "Credit Agreement". Upon the effectiveness of the First Amendment, the Backstop Commitment Letter and the commitments thereunder were terminated.

In connection with the Rexnord Transaction, Land also entered into a debt commitment letter (the “Land Commitment Letter”) and related fee letters with Barclays, pursuant to which, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, Barclays committed to provide approximately $487.0 million of bridge loans under a 364-day senior bridge loan facility to be used to pay the Land Cash Payment. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement the Company and Land may enter into a permitted alternative financing to replace the commitments under the Land Commitment Letter. If the Rexnord Transaction is consummated, the indebtedness contemplated by the Land Commitment Letter will become indebtedness of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

We anticipate incurring significant fees and expenses in connection with the Rexnord Transaction, the amount of which is uncertain. In addition, the amount of the Company Special Dividend depends on the number of additional shares of our common stock that must be issued in connection with the Rexnord Transaction in order to satisfy tax requirements applicable to a Reverse Morris Trust transaction. The size of the dividend that will ultimately be declared is uncertain and will remain so until the closing of the Rexnord Transaction.

Other Disclosures

Based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities and credit quality, which are classified as Level 2 inputs (see also Note 15 of Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), the approximate fair value of our total debt was $1,032.1 million and $1,085.8 million as of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021, respectively.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our disclosures of critical accounting policies, which are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 2, 2021, have not materially changed since that report was filed.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to market risk relating to our operations due to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices of purchased raw materials. We manage the exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating and financing activities and derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps, commodity cash flow hedges and foreign currency forward exchange contracts. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to clearly defined policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative purposes.
39


All qualified hedges are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and are accounted for as cash flow hedges, with changes in fair value recorded in Accumulated Other comprehensive Income (Loss) (“AOCI”) in each accounting period. An ineffective portion of the hedges change in fair value, if any, is recorded in earnings in the period of change.
Interest Rate Risk
We are exposed to interest rate risk on certain of our outstanding debt obligations used to finance our operations and acquisitions. Loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest at variable rates plus a margin, based on our consolidated net leverage ratio. At April 3, 2021, excluding the impact of interest rate swaps, we had $403.9 million of fixed rate debt and $620.3 million of variable rate debt. We utilize interest rate swaps to manage fluctuations in cash flows resulting from exposure to interest rate risk on forecasted variable rate interest payments.
We have floating rate borrowings, which expose us to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. A hypothetical 10% change in our weighted average borrowing rate on outstanding variable rate debt at April 3, 2021 would result in a $0.7 million change in after-tax annualized earnings. In April 2018, we entered into a spot, non-amortizing interest rate swap to pay fixed/receive floating with a notional amount of $88.4 million to manage fluctuations in cash flows from interest rate risk related to floating rate interest. The swap expired in April 2021. We also entered into two forward starting pay fixed/receive floating non-amortizing interest rate swaps in June 2020, with a total notional amount of $250.0 million to manage fluctuations in cash flows from interest rate risk related to floating rate interest. These swaps become effective July 2021 and will expire in July 2025. Upon inception, the swaps were designated as a cash flow hedges against forecasted interest payments with gains and losses, net of tax, measured on an ongoing basis, recorded in AOCI.
Details regarding the instruments as of April 3, 2021 are as follows (in millions):
InstrumentNotional AmountMaturityRate PaidRate ReceivedFair Value
Swap$88.4April 20212.5%LIBOR (1 month)$(0.2)
Swap$250.0July 20250.6%LIBOR (1 month)$2.9 
As of April 3, 2021, the interest rate swap liability of $(0.2) million was included in Other Accrued Expenses and $2.9 million in Other Noncurrent Assets. The unrealized gain on the effective portion of the contract net of tax of $2.1 million was recorded in AOCI. At January 2, 2021, a $(0.7) million interest rate swap liability was included in Other Accrued Expenses and $(1.4) million in Other Noncurrent Liabilities. There was an unrealized loss of $(1.6) million, net of tax, at January 2, 2021 that was recorded in AOCI for the effective portion of the hedge.
In July 2017, the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (the authority that regulates LIBOR) announced it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. We have material exposure to LIBOR through our revolving credit facility, certain lines of credit and interest rate swaps that are indexed to USD-LIBOR. It is expected that LIBOR will be discontinued and, while we believe an acceptable replacement to LIBOR will be available, if LIBOR is discontinued, we cannot reasonably estimate the impact, if any, on such discontinuation.
Foreign Currency Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Our objective is to minimize our exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating activities and the utilization of foreign currency exchange contracts to manage our exposure on the forecasted transactions denominated in currencies other than the applicable functional currency. Contracts are executed with credit worthy banks and are denominated in currencies of major industrial countries. We do not hedge our exposure to the translation of reported results of foreign subsidiaries from local currency to United States dollars.
As of April 3, 2021, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of $15.5 million, $0.5 million, $(2.1) million and $(0.5) million, are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Other Accrued Expenses, and Other Noncurrent Liabilities, respectively. As of January 2, 2021, derivative currency assets (liabilities) of $16.6 million, $1.6 million, $(1.0) million and $(0.1) million, are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Other Accrued Expenses and Other Noncurrent Liabilities, respectively. The unrealized gains on the effective portions of the hedges of $7.7 million net of tax, and $12.7 million net of tax, as of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021 respectively, were recorded in AOCI. At April 3, 2021, we had $1.5 million, net of tax, of derivative currency gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At January 2, 2021, we had $1.1 million, net of tax, currency gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings.

Gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would be offset by gains and losses on the underlying forecasted non-US dollar denominated cash flows.
Commodity Price Risk
We periodically enter into commodity hedging transactions to reduce the impact of changing prices for certain commodities such as copper and aluminum based upon forecasted purchases of such commodities. Qualified hedge transactions are designated as cash flow hedges and the contract terms of commodity hedge instruments generally mirror those of the hedged item, providing a high degree of risk reduction and correlation.
Derivative commodity assets (liabilities) of $16.4 million, $1.2 million, $(0.3) million, $(0.1) million were recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets, Other Noncurrent Assets, Other Accrued Expenses and Other Noncurrent Liabilities at April 3, 2021. Derivative commodity assets of $11.4 million and $0.1 million were recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets and Other Noncurrent Assets, respectively, at January 2, 2021. The unrealized gain on the effective portion of the hedges of $12.9 million net of tax and $8.7 million net of tax, as of April 3, 2021 and January 2, 2021, respectively, was recorded in AOCI. At April 3, 2021, we had $5.2 million, net of tax, of derivative commodity gains on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that will be realized in earnings when the hedged items impact earnings. At January 2, 2021, there was an additional $2.6 million, net of tax, of derivative commodity gain on closed hedge instruments in AOCI that were realized into earnings when the hedged items impacted earnings.
The following table quantifies the outstanding commodity contracts intended to hedge raw material commodity prices and the corresponding impact on the value of these instruments assuming a hypothetical 10% appreciation/depreciation of their prices on April 3, 2021 (in millions):
   Gain (Loss) From

Gains and losses indicated in the sensitivity analysis would be offset by the actual prices of the commodities.
The net AOCI hedging component balance of a $29.4 million gains at April 3, 2021 includes $19.8 million of net current deferred gains expected to be realized in the next twelve months. The gain/loss reclassified from AOCI into earnings on such derivatives will be recognized in the same period in which the related item affects earnings.
41


Counterparty Risk
We are exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to various financial agreements, including our interest rate swap agreements, foreign currency exchange contracts and commodity hedging transactions. We manage exposure to counterparty credit risk by limiting our counterparties to major international banks and financial institutions meeting established credit guidelines and continually monitoring their compliance with the credit guidelines. We do not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk. We do not anticipate non-performance by our counterparties, but cannot provide assurances.
