Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Statements:
Statements in this document that are not historical facts, including statements
that: (i) are in the future tense; (ii) include the words "expects," "plans,"
"targets," "estimates," "believes," "anticipates," or similar words that
reference Snap-on Incorporated ("Snap-on" or "the company") or its management;
(iii) are specifically identified as forward-looking; or (iv) describe Snap-on's
or management's future outlook, plans, estimates, objectives or goals, are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Snap-on cautions the reader that any
forward-looking statements included in this document that are based upon
assumptions and estimates were developed by management in good faith and are
subject to risks, uncertainties or other factors that could cause (and in some
cases have caused) actual results to differ materially from those described in
any such statement. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied
upon as a prediction of actual results or regarded as a representation by the
company or its management that the projected results will be achieved. For those
forward-looking statements, Snap-on cautions the reader that numerous important
factors, such as those listed below, the factors discussed in its Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019, and in Part II, Item
1A. Risk Factors in its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period
ended March 28, 2020, and those discussed in this document, could affect the
company's actual results and could cause its actual consolidated results to
differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by,
or on behalf of, Snap-on.
These risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, uncertainties related
to estimates, statements, assumptions and projections generally, and the timing
and progress with which Snap-on can attain value through its Snap-on Value
Creation Processes, including its ability to realize efficiencies and savings
from its rapid continuous improvement and other cost reduction initiatives,
improve workforce productivity, achieve improvements in the company's
manufacturing footprint and greater efficiencies in its supply chain, and
enhance machine maintenance, plant productivity and manufacturing line set-up
and change-over practices, any or all of which could result in production
inefficiencies, higher costs and/or lost revenues. These risks include the
evolving impact and unknown duration of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic,
which has the potential to amplify the impact of the other risks facing the
company. These risks also include governmental actions related thereto on
Snap-on's business, as well as uncertainties related to Snap-on's capability to
implement future strategies with respect to its existing businesses, its ability
to refine its brand and franchise strategies, retain and attract franchisees,
further enhance service and value to franchisees and thereby help improve their
sales and profitability, introduce successful new products, successfully pursue,
complete and integrate acquisitions, as well as its ability to withstand
disruption arising from natural disasters, planned facility closures or other
labor interruptions, the effects of external negative factors, including adverse
developments in world financial markets, developments related to tariffs and
other trade issues or disputes, weakness in certain areas of the global economy
(including as a result of the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union and
the COVID-19 pandemic), and significant changes in the current competitive
environment, inflation, interest rates and other monetary and market
fluctuations, changes in tax rates, laws and regulations, and the impact of
energy and raw material supply and pricing, including steel (as a result of U.S.
tariffs imposed on certain steel imports or otherwise) and gasoline, the amount,
rate and growth of Snap-on's general and administrative expenses, including
health care and postretirement costs (resulting from, among other matters, U.S.
health care legislation and its ongoing implementation or reform), continuing
and potentially increasing required contributions to pension and postretirement
plans, the impacts of non-strategic business and/or product line
rationalizations, and the effects on business as a result of new legislation,
regulations or government-related developments or issues, risks associated with
data security and technological systems and protections, potential reputational
damages and costs related to litigation as well as an inability to assure that
costs will be reduced or eliminated on appeal, the impact of changes in
financial accounting standards, and other world or local events outside
Snap-on's control, including terrorist disruptions and other outbreaks of
infectious diseases. Snap-on disclaims any responsibility to update any
forward-looking statement provided in this document, except as required by law.
In addition, investors should be aware that generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") prescribe when a company
should reserve for particular risks, including litigation exposures.
Accordingly, results for a given reporting period could be significantly
affected if and when a reserve is established for a major contingency. Reported
results, therefore, may appear to be volatile in certain accounting periods.

                                 OF OPERATIONS

Non-GAAP Measures
References in this report to "organic sales" refer to sales from continuing
operations calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding acquisition-related
sales and the impact of foreign currency translation. Snap-on has significant
international operations and is subject to risks inherent with foreign
operations, including foreign currency translation fluctuations. Management
evaluates the company's sales performance based on organic sales growth, which
primarily reflects growth from the company's existing businesses as a result of
increased output, customer base and geographic expansion, new product
development and/or pricing, and excludes sales contributions from acquired
operations the company did not own as of the comparable prior-year reporting
period. The company's organic sales disclosures also exclude the effects of
foreign currency translation as foreign currency translation is subject to
volatility that can obscure underlying business trends. Management believes that
the non-GAAP financial measure of organic sales is meaningful to investors as it
provides them with useful information to aid in identifying underlying growth
trends in our businesses and facilitates comparisons of our sales performance
with prior periods.

Recent Acquisitions
On January 31, 2020, Snap-on acquired substantially all of the assets of the
TreadReader product line from Sigmavision Limited ("Sigmavision") for a cash
purchase price of $5.9 million. Sigmavision designs and manufactures handheld
devices and drive-over ramps that provide tire information for use in the
automotive industry. The acquisition enhances and expands Snap-on's existing
capabilities in serving vehicle repair facilities and will expand the company's
presence with repair shop owners and managers.
On August 7, 2019, Snap-on acquired Cognitran Limited ("Cognitran") for a cash
purchase price of $30.6 million (or $29.6 million, net of cash acquired).
Cognitran, based in Chelmsford, United Kingdom, specializes in flexible, modular
and highly scalable "Software as a Service" (SaaS) products for original
equipment manufacturer ("OEM") customers and their dealers, focused on the
creation and delivery of service, diagnostics, parts and repair information to
OEM dealers and connected vehicle platforms. The acquisition enhanced and
expanded Snap-on's capabilities in providing shop efficiency solutions through
integrated upstream services to OEM customers in automotive, heavy duty,
agricultural and recreational applications.
On April 2, 2019, Snap-on acquired Power Hawk Technologies, Inc. ("Power Hawk")
for a cash purchase price of $7.9 million. Power Hawk, based in Rockaway, New
Jersey, designs, manufactures and distributes rescue tools and related equipment
for a variety of military, governmental, and fire, rescue and emergency
operations. The acquisition of the Power Hawk product line complemented and
increased Snap-on's existing product offering and broadened its established
capabilities in serving critical industries.
On January 25, 2019, Snap-on acquired substantially all of the assets of TMB
GeoMarketing Limited ("TMB") for a cash purchase price of $1.3 million. TMB,
based in Dorking, United Kingdom, designs planning software used by OEMs to
optimize dealer locations and manage the performance of dealer outlets. The
acquisition of TMB extended Snap-on's product line in its core dealer network
solutions business.
For segment reporting purposes, the results of operations and assets of
Sigmavision, Cognitran and TMB have been included in the Repair Systems &
Information Group since the respective acquisition dates and the results of
operations and assets of Power Hawk have been included in the Commercial &
Industrial Group since the acquisition date.
Pro forma financial information has not been presented for these acquisitions as
the net effects were neither significant nor material to Snap-on's results of
operations or financial position.

Impact of COVID-19



During the second quarter of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic and associated
government measures to limit the spread of the virus heavily impacted Snap-on's
sales and earnings, and as anticipated resulted in substantially lower
performance in the period as compared to a year ago. Moving through the quarter,
the company accommodated its operations to the virus environment, implementing
appropriate measures to ensure the health and safety of its personnel,
continuing without disruption to serve its franchisees and other professional
customers performing essential work. In turn, Snap-on provided assistance to its
franchisees with their accommodations of the turbulence to enable continued
service to technicians. As a result, the impact of the virus on our operations
lessened as we moved through the quarter from April to May to June. During this
period, the company has invested in offsetting the virus impact, including
absorbing temporary closures of certain facilities, wages for quarantined
associates, event cancellation fees, as well as other related costs
(collectively "direct COVID-19-related costs" or "direct costs associated with
COVID-19")
. Snap-on has generally maintained its headcount, manufacturing capacity and
product development, in anticipation of the return to pre-COVID-19 demand
levels.
The ultimate impact of COVID-19 on our business, results of operations,
financial condition and cash flows is dependent on future developments,
including the duration of the pandemic and the related length of its impact on
the global economy, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time.
See Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors in Snap-on's 2020 first quarter Form 10-Q,
for an additional discussion of risks related to COVID-19.

Percentage Disclosure: All income statement line item percentages below "Operating
earnings from financial services" are calculated as a percentage of the sum of Net sales
and Financial services revenue.


Net sales of $724.3 in the second quarter of 2020, reflecting a $214.9 million,
or 22.9%, decrease in organic sales and $14.4 million of unfavorable foreign
currency translation, partially offset by $2.3 million of acquisition-related
sales, compared to $951.3 million in 2019. The decline in sales volume primarily
reflects the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the second quarter of 2020.

Gross profit of $341.2 million in the second quarter of 2020, including $3.1
million of direct costs associated with COVID-19, $2.0 million of exit and
disposal ("restructuring") costs and $7.8 million of unfavorable foreign
currency effects, compared to $473.8 million in 2019. Gross margin (gross profit
as a percentage of net sales) of 47.1% in the quarter declined 270 basis points
(100 basis points ("bps") equals 1.0 percent) from last year primarily due to
the impact of lower sales volumes, including costs to maintain manufacturing
capacity, 40 bps of direct costs associated with COVID-19, 30 bps from costs
related to restructuring actions outside of the United States and 10 bps of
unfavorable foreign currency effects. These decreases in gross margin were
partially offset by benefits from the company's "Rapid Continuous Improvement"
or "RCI" initiatives.
Snap-on's RCI initiatives employ a structured set of tools and processes across
multiple businesses and geographies intended to eliminate waste and improve
operations. Savings from Snap-on's RCI initiatives reflect benefits from a wide
variety of ongoing efficiency, productivity and process improvements, including
savings generated from product design cost reductions, improved manufacturing
line set-up and change-over practices, lower-cost sourcing initiatives and
facility optimization. Unless individually significant, it is not practicable to
disclose each RCI activity that generated savings and/or segregate RCI savings
embedded in sales volume increases.

plus financial services revenue), operating earnings of 18.4% in the quarter,
including 70 bps of direct costs associated with COVID-19, 50 bps of costs from
restructuring actions and 20 bps of unfavorable foreign currency effects,
compared to 24.2% last year.

to last year. See Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for
information on Snap-on's debt and credit facilities.
Other income (expense) - net includes net gains and losses associated with
hedging and currency exchange rate transactions, non-service components of net
periodic benefit costs, and interest income. See Note 17 to the Condensed

net.
Snap-on's 2020 second quarter effective income tax rate on earnings attributable
to Snap-on was 24.1%, which includes a 20 bps increase related to the
restructuring actions. The 2019 effective income tax rate was 23.6%. See Note 8
to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information on income
taxes.
Net earnings attributable to Snap-on in the second quarter of 2020 of
$101.2 million, or $1.85 per diluted share, includes a $3.3 million, or $0.06
per diluted share, after-tax charge related to restructuring actions. Net
earnings attributable to Snap-on in the second quarter of 2019 were
$180.4 million, or $3.22 per diluted share.

and Financial services revenue.


Net sales of $1,576.5 in the first six months of 2020, reflecting a $277.6
million, or 15.0%, decrease in organic sales and $24.7 million of unfavorable
foreign currency translation, partially offset by $5.8 million of
acquisition-related sales, compared to $1,873.0 million in 2019. The decline in
sales volume primarily reflects the impact associated with the COVID-19 pandemic
in the first six months of 2020.

Gross profit of $762.8 million in the first six months of 2020, including $7.1
million of restructuring costs, $4.6 million of direct costs associated with
COVID-19, and $13.9 million of unfavorable foreign currency effects, compared to
$945.4 million in 2019. Gross margin of 48.4% in the first six months of 2020
declined 210 basis points from last year primarily due to the impact of lower
sales volumes, including costs to maintain manufacturing capacity, 40 bps from
costs related to restructuring actions outside of the United States, 30 bps of
direct costs associated with COVID-19 and 10 bps of unfavorable foreign currency
effects. These decreases in gross margins were partially offset by benefits from
the company's RCI initiatives.

Operating expenses of $532.8 million in the first six months of 2020, including
$4.4 million of restructuring charges and $3.0 million of direct costs
associated with COVID-19, compared to $568.1 million in 2019. Operating expenses
in the first six months of 2019 included an $11.6 million benefit related to a
legal settlement in a patent-related litigation matter that was being appealed
(the "legal settlement"). The operating expense margin of 33.8% increased 340
bps from last year primarily due to lower sales volumes, 60 bps of a
non-recurring benefit in 2019 from the legal settlement, 30 bps from costs
related to restructuring actions, 20 bps of direct costs associated from
COVID-19 and 10 bps of unfavorable foreign currency effects. These items were
partially offset by savings from cost containment actions in response to lower
sales volumes.

foreign currency translation, compared to $335.0 million in the second quarter
of 2019. The organic sales decrease includes mid-teen declines in both sales to
customers in critical industries and in the segment's power tools operation.
Segment gross margin in the second quarter of 2020 of 34.4% declined 420 bps
from last year primarily due to the impact of lower sales volumes, including
lower utilization of manufacturing capacity, 80 bps from $2.0 million of costs
related to restructuring actions in the segment's European-based hand tools
business, 70 bps of direct COVID-19-related costs and 50 bps of unfavorable
foreign currency effects. These items were partially offset by material cost
savings and benefits from the company's RCI initiatives.
Segment operating expense margin in the second quarter of 2020 of 25.7%
increased 170 bps as compared to last year primarily due to the impact of lower
sales volumes and 50 bps for direct costs associated with COVID-19. These costs
were partially offset by savings from cost containment actions.
As a result of these factors, segment operating earnings of $22.9 million in the
second quarter of 2020, including $3.0 million of direct costs associated with
COVID-19, $2.0 million of restructuring charges and $1.9 million of unfavorable
foreign currency effects, compared to $48.9 million in the second quarter of
2019. Operating margin (segment operating earnings as a percentage of segment
net sales) for the Commercial & Industrial Group of 8.7% in the second quarter

of growth of the company's financial services portfolio, partially offset by
$1.0 million of decreased revenue from lower average yields on contract
receivables. In the second quarters of both 2020 and 2019, the average yields on
finance receivables were 17.6%. In the second quarters of 2020 and 2019, the
respective average yields on contract receivables were 8.2% and 9.1%. The lower
yield on contract receivables in the second quarter of 2020 primarily reflects
the impact of business operation support loans to franchisees in the COVID-19
environment. Originations of $255.8 million in the second quarter of 2020
decreased $7.6 million, or 2.9%, from 2019 levels.

Financial services expenses primarily include personnel-related and other
general and administrative costs, as well as provisions for credit losses. These
expenses are generally more dependent on changes in the size of the financial
services portfolio than they are on the revenue of the segment. Financial
services expenses in the second quarter of 2020 increased primarily due to
higher provisions for credit losses and from non-recurring favorable loss
experience in the second quarter of 2019. As a percentage of the average
financial services portfolio, financial services expenses were 1.3% in the
second quarter of 2020 and 1.1% in 2019.

and 2019 the respective average yields on contract receivables were 8.6% and

primarily reflects the impact of business operation support loans to franchisees
in the COVID-19 environment. Originations of $511.4 million in the first six
months of 2020 decreased $4.5 million, or 0.9%, from 2019 levels.

Financial services expenses in the first six months of 2020 increased primarily
due to higher provisions for credit losses related to the company's fiscal year
2020 adoption of ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic

increased $1.9 million from $18.9 million last year. Snap-on's general corporate
expenses in the first six months of 2020 of $39.3 million increased $10.5

    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
                                 OF OPERATIONS
                                  (continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Snap-on's growth has historically been funded by a combination of cash provided
by operating activities and debt financing. Snap-on believes that its cash from
operations and collections of finance receivables, coupled with its sources of
borrowings and available cash on hand, are sufficient to fund its currently
anticipated requirements for scheduled debt repayments, payments of interest and
dividends, new receivables originated by our financial services businesses,
capital expenditures, working capital, the funding of pension plans, and funding
for share repurchases and acquisitions, if and as they arise.
Due to Snap-on's credit rating over the years, external funds have been
available at an acceptable cost. As of the close of business on July 24, 2020,
Snap-on's long-term debt and commercial paper were rated, respectively, A2 and
P-1 by Moody's Investors Service; A- and A-2 by Standard & Poor's; and A and F1
by Fitch Ratings. Snap-on believes that its current credit arrangements are
sound and that the strength of its balance sheet affords the company the
financial flexibility, including through access to financial markets for
potential new financing, to respond to both internal growth opportunities and
those available through acquisitions. However, based on current macroeconomic
conditions resulting from the on-going uncertainty caused by COVID-19, Snap-on
cannot provide any assurances of the availability of future financing or the
terms on which it might be available, or that its debt ratings may not decrease.
The following discussion focuses on information included in the accompanying
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of June 27, 2020, working capital (current assets less current liabilities)
of $1,943.0 million increased $510.1 million from $1,432.9 million as of
December 28, 2019 (fiscal 2019 year-end) primarily as a result of the net
changes discussed below.
The following represents the company's working capital position as of June 27,
2020, and December 28, 2019:

                                               June 27,       December 28,
(Amounts in millions)                            2020             2019
Cash and cash equivalents                    $   686.2       $      184.5
Trade and other accounts receivable - net        563.5              694.6
Finance receivables - net                        508.5              530.1
Contract receivables - net                        97.7              100.7
Inventories - net                                784.0              760.4
Prepaid expenses and other assets                132.5              110.2
Total current assets                           2,772.4            2,380.5

Notes payable                                    (12.1)            (202.9)
Accounts payable                                (186.2)            (198.5)
Other current liabilities                       (631.1)            (546.2)
Total current liabilities                       (829.4)            (947.6)
Total working capital                        $ 1,943.0       $    1,432.9


Cash and cash equivalents of $686.2 million as of June 27, 2020, increased
$501.7 million from 2019 year-end levels primarily due to: (i) $489.9 million of
net proceeds from the April 30, 2020 issuance of $500 million of unsecured 3.10%
notes that mature on May 1, 2050 (the "2050 Notes"); (ii) $467.0 million of cash
generated from operations; (iii) $357.5 million of cash from collections of
finance receivables; and (iv) $13.8 million of cash proceeds from stock purchase
and option plan exercises. These increases in cash and cash equivalents were
partially offset by: (i) the funding of $414.6 million of new finance
receivables; (ii) $190.0 million of net repayments on other short-term
borrowings; (iii) dividend payments to shareholders of $117.7 million; (iv) the
repurchase of 349,000 shares of the company's common stock for $50.5 million;
(v) the funding of $29.0 million of capital expenditures; and (vi) the funding
of $6.1 million for acquisitions.

Of the $686.2 million of cash and cash equivalents as of June 27, 2020,
$181.7 million was held outside of the United States. Snap-on maintains non-U.S.
funds in its foreign operations to: (i) provide adequate working capital;
(ii) satisfy various regulatory requirements; and/or (iii) take advantage of
business expansion opportunities as they arise. Although the Tax Cuts and Jobs
Act ("Tax Act") generally eliminated U.S. federal taxation of dividends from
foreign subsidiaries, such dividends may still be subject to state income
taxation and foreign withholding taxes. Snap-on periodically evaluates its cash
held outside the United States and may pursue opportunities to repatriate
certain foreign cash amounts to the extent that it does not incur unfavorable
net tax consequences.

    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
                                 OF OPERATIONS
                                  (continued)
Trade and other accounts receivable - net of $563.5 million as of June 27, 2020,
decreased $131.1 million from 2019 year-end levels, primarily due to the impact
of lower sales volume as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, collections and $8.2
million of foreign currency translation. Days sales outstanding (trade and other
accounts receivable - net as of the respective period end, divided by the
respective trailing 12 months sales, times 360 days) was 59 days at June 27,
2020, and 67 days at December 28, 2019.
The current portions of net finance and contract receivables of $606.2 million
as of June 27, 2020, compared to $630.8 million at 2019 year end. The long-term
portions of net finance and contract receivables of $1,507.2 million as of
June 27, 2020, compared to $1,463.6 million at 2019 year end. The combined
$19.0 million increase in net current and long-term finance and contract
receivables over 2019 year-end levels is primarily due to the continued growth
of the company's financial services portfolio, partially offset by $7.5
million of foreign currency translation, $8.1 million of provision charges
resulting from the company's fiscal year 2020 adoption of ASU No. 2016-13,
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) and $2.6 million of higher
credit reserve requirements as a result of the economic uncertainty associated
with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Inventories - net of $784.0 million as of June 27, 2020, increased $23.6 million
from 2019 year-end levels primarily to support critical industries, partially
offset by $6.1 million of foreign currency translation. Inventory turns
(trailing 12 months of cost of goods sold, divided by the average of the
beginning and ending inventory balance for the trailing 12 months) were 2.3
turns and 2.6 turns as of June 27, 2020, and December 28, 2019, respectively.
Inventories accounted for using the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") method
approximated 58% of total inventories as of both June 27, 2020, and December 28,
2019, respectively. All other inventories are accounted for using the last-in,
first-out ("LIFO") method. The company's LIFO reserve was $84.5 million as of
both June 27, 2020, and December 28, 2019.
Notes payable of $12.1 million as of June 27, 2020, represented other notes.
There were no commercial paper borrowings outstanding as of June 27, 2020. As of
2019 year end, notes payable of $202.9 million included $193.6 million of
commercial paper borrowings and $9.3 million of other notes.
Accounts payable of $186.2 million as of June 27, 2020, decreased $12.3 million
from 2019 year-end levels primarily due to the timing of payments and $0.3
million of foreign currency translation.
Other accrued liabilities of $435.4 million as of June 27, 2020, increased $64.6
million from 2019 year-end levels primarily due to higher income tax accruals,
for which the payment due date was extended as a result of COVID-19, partially
offset by $1.8 million of foreign currency translation.

Long-term debt of $1,436.7 million as of June 27, 2020, consisted of: (i)
$250 million of unsecured 6.125% notes that mature in 2021 (the "2021 Notes");
(ii) $300 million of unsecured 3.25% notes that mature in 2027 (the "2027
Notes"); (iii) $400 million of unsecured 4.10% notes that mature in 2048 (the
"2048 Notes"); and (iv) $500 million of the 2050 Notes, partially offset by
$13.3 million from the net effects of debt amortization costs and fair value
adjustments of interest rate swaps. Long-term debt of $946.9 million as of 2019
year end consisted of: (i) $250 million of the 2021 Notes; (ii) $300 million of
the 2027 Notes; and (iii) $400 million of the 2048 Notes, partially offset by
$3.1 million from the net effects of debt amortization costs and fair value
adjustments of interest rate swaps.

Snap-on has an $800 million multi-currency revolving credit facility that
terminates on September 16, 2024 (the "Credit Facility"); no amounts were
outstanding under the Credit Facility as of June 27, 2020. Borrowings under the
Credit Facility bear interest at varying rates based on either: (i) Snap-on's
then-current, long-term debt ratings; or (ii) Snap-on's then-current ratio of
consolidated debt net of certain cash adjustments ("Consolidated Net Debt") to
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain other
adjustments for the preceding four fiscal quarters then ended (the "Consolidated
Net Debt to EBITDA Ratio"). The Credit Facility's financial covenant requires
that Snap-on maintain, as of each fiscal quarter end, either (i) a ratio not
greater than 0.60 to 1.00 of Consolidated Net Debt to the sum of Consolidated
Net Debt plus total equity and less accumulated other comprehensive income or
loss (the "Leverage Ratio"); or (ii) a Consolidated Net Debt to EBITDA Ratio not
greater than 3.50 to 1.00. Snap-on may, up to two times during any five-year
period during the term of the Credit Facility (including any extensions
thereof), elect to increase the maximum Leverage Ratio to 0.65 to 1.00 and/or
increase the maximum Consolidated Net Debt to EBITDA Ratio to 4.00 to 1.00 for
four consecutive fiscal quarters in connection with certain material
acquisitions (as defined in the related credit agreement). As of June 27, 2020,
the company's actual ratios of 0.17 and 0.86 respectively, were both within the
permitted ranges set forth in this financial covenant. Snap-on generally issues
commercial paper to fund its financing needs on a short-term basis and uses the
Credit Facility as back-up liquidity to support such commercial paper issuances.

                                  (continued)
Snap-on believes it has sufficient available cash and access to both committed
and uncommitted credit facilities to cover its expected funding needs on both a
short-term and long-term basis, however, it is continuing to monitor the impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic on its business and the credit and financial markets.
Snap-on manages its aggregate short-term borrowings so as not to exceed its
availability under the Credit Facility. Snap-on believes that it can access
short-term debt markets, predominantly through commercial paper issuances and
existing lines of credit, to fund its short-term requirements and to ensure
near-term liquidity. Snap-on regularly monitors the credit and financial markets
and, if it believes conditions are favorable, it may take advantage of such
conditions to issue long-term debt to further improve its liquidity and capital
resources. Near-term liquidity requirements for Snap-on include scheduled debt
payments, payments of interest and dividends, funding to support new receivables
originated by our financial services businesses, capital expenditures, working
capital, the funding of pension plans, and funding for share repurchases and
acquisitions, if and as they arise. Snap-on intends to make contributions of
$8.7 million to its foreign pension plans and $2.9 million to its domestic
pension plans in 2020, as required by law. Depending on market and other
conditions, Snap-on may make discretionary cash contributions to its pension
plans in 2020.
Snap-on's long-term financing strategy is to maintain continuous access to the
debt markets to accommodate its liquidity needs, including the potential use of
commercial paper, additional fixed-term debt and/or securitizations.
The following discussion focuses on information included in the accompanying
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $467.0 million and $346.8 million
in the first six months of 2020 and 2019, respectively. The $120.2 million
year-over-year increase in net cash provided by operating activities primarily
reflects an increase of $247.8 million from net changes in operating assets and
liabilities, partially offset by a $119.1 million decrease in net earnings.

Investing Activities
Net cash used by investing activities of $95.4 million in the first six months
of 2020 included additions to finance receivables of $414.6 million, partially
offset by collections of $357.5 million. Net cash used by investing activities
of $103.9 million in the first six months of 2019 included additions to finance
receivables of $431.1 million, partially offset by collections of
$383.5 million. Finance receivables are comprised of extended-term installment
payment contracts to both technicians and independent shop owners (i.e.,
franchisees' customers) to enable them to purchase tools and diagnostic and
equipment products on an extended-term payment plan, generally with payment
terms of approximately four years.
Net cash used by investing activities in the respective first six months of 2020
and 2019 also included $6.1 million and $9.3 million for acquisitions. See Note
3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for information about acquisitions.
Capital expenditures were $29.0 million and $48.2 million in the first six
months of 2020 and 2019, respectively. Capital expenditures in both years
included continued investments related to the company's execution of its
strategic Value Creation Processes around safety, quality, customer connection,
innovation and RCI. The lower capital spending as compared to the prior year was
a result of decreased expenditures as a result of the economic uncertainty
related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities of $132.4 million in the first six
months of 2020 included Snap-on's sale, on April 30, 2020, of $500 million of
the 2050 Notes at a discount, from which Snap-on received $489.9 million of net
proceeds, reflecting $4.4 million of transactions costs, partially offset by
repayments of notes payable and other short-term borrowings of $190.0 million.
Net cash used by financing activities of $220.7 million in the first six months
of 2019 included repayments of notes payable and other short-term borrowings of
$18.2 million.

    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
                                 OF OPERATIONS
                                  (continued)
Proceeds from stock purchase and option plan exercises totaled $13.8 million and
$24.6 million in the first six months of 2020 and 2019, respectively. Snap-on
has undertaken stock repurchases from time to time to offset dilution created by
shares issued for employee and franchisee stock purchase plans, as well as stock
options, and for other corporate purposes. In the first six months of 2020,
Snap-on repurchased 349,000 shares of its common stock for $50.5 million under
its previously announced share repurchase programs. In the first six months of
2019, Snap-on repurchased 660,000 shares of its common stock for $107.5 million
under its previously announced share repurchase programs. As of June 27, 2020,
Snap-on had remaining availability to repurchase up to an additional
$330.4 million in common stock pursuant to its Board's authorizations. The
purchase of Snap-on common stock is at the company's discretion, subject to
prevailing financial and market conditions. Snap-on believes that its cash
generated from operations, available cash on hand, and funds available from its
credit facilities, will be sufficient to fund the company's additional share
repurchases, if any.
Snap-on has paid consecutive quarterly cash dividends, without interruption or
reduction, since 1939. Cash dividends totaled $117.7 million and $105.3 million
in the first six months of 2020 and 2019, respectively. On November 8, 2019, the
Board increased the quarterly cash dividend by 13.7% to $1.08 per share ($4.32
per share annualized). Snap-on believes that its cash generated from operations,
available cash on hand, and funds available from its credit facilities, will be
sufficient to pay dividends.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The company had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 27, 2020.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Snap-on's disclosures of its critical accounting policies, which are contained
in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019,
and on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 28, 2020, have not materially
changed since those reports were filed.
Outlook
COVID-19 has spread across the globe during 2020 and is impacting economic
activity worldwide. Snap-on experienced improving trends in the second quarter
as our operations learned to accommodate the risks and safely pursue
opportunities in the COVID-19 environment. In the near term, the company
believes there will be continued sequential improvements, reflecting increasing
levels of accommodations to the virus-related turbulence, though it cannot
provide assurances on the rate of progress due to the uncertain and evolving
nature and duration of the pandemic.
Snap-on is responding to the global macroeconomic challenges by deepening its
RCI, sourcing and other cost reduction initiatives. Snap-on recorded $4.0
million and $11.5 million of costs related to restructuring actions in the
second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively. Snap-on will continue
to manage its cash flows and balance its capital allocation priorities,
including investments and the need for further cost reduction actions; the
COVID-19 pandemic makes it difficult to presently predict this balance as the
company continually adjusts to the changing environment. Snap-on expects that
capital expenditures in 2020 will be in a range of $75 million to $85 million,
of which $29.0 million was incurred in the first six months of the year.
Despite near term uncertainty, Snap-on expects to maintain focus on its defined
runways for coherent growth, leveraging capabilities already demonstrated in the
automotive repair arena and developing and expanding its professional customer
base, not only in automotive repair, but in adjacent markets, additional
geographies and other areas, including extending in critical industries, where
the cost and penalties for failure can be high.

Snap-on currently anticipates that its full year 2020 effective income tax rate will be in the range of 23% to 25%.
