Overview

Introduction:

The Timken Company designs and manages a growing portfolio of engineered
bearings and power transmission products. With more than a century of innovation
and increasing knowledge, the Company continuously improves the reliability and
efficiency of global machinery and equipment to move the world forward. The
Company's growing product and services portfolio features many strong industrial
brands, such as Timken®, Philadelphia Gear®, Drives®, Cone Drive®, Rollon®,
Lovejoy®, Diamond®, BEKA® and Groeneveld®. Timken employs more than 17,000
people globally in 42 countries. The Company operates under two reportable
segments: (1) Mobile Industries and (2) Process Industries. The following
further describes these business segments:
•      Mobile Industries serves OEM customers that manufacture off-highway
       equipment for the agricultural, mining and construction markets;
       on-highway vehicles including passenger cars, light trucks, and medium-
       and heavy-duty trucks; rail cars and locomotives; outdoor power equipment;
       rotorcraft and fixed-wing aircraft; and other mobile equipment. Beyond
       service parts sold to OEMs, aftermarket sales and services to individual
       end users, equipment owners, operators and maintenance shops are handled
       directly or through the Company's extensive network of authorized
       automotive and heavy-truck distributors.


•      Process Industries serves OEM and end-user customers in industries that
       place heavy demands on the fixed operating equipment they make or use in
       heavy and other general industrial sectors. This includes metals, cement
       and aggregate production; power generation and renewable energy sources;
       oil and gas extraction and refining; pulp and paper and food processing;
       automation and robotics; and health and critical motion control equipment.
       Other applications include marine equipment, gear drives, cranes, hoists
       and conveyors. This segment also supports aftermarket sales and service
       needs through its global network of authorized industrial distributors and
       through the provision of services directly to end users.


Timken creates value by understanding customer needs and applying its know-how to serve a broad range of customers in attractive markets and industries across the globe. The Company's business strengths include its product technology, end-market diversity, geographic reach and aftermarket mix. Timken collaborates with OEMs to improve equipment efficiency with its engineered products and captures subsequent equipment replacement cycles by selling largely through independent channels in the aftermarket. Timken focuses its international efforts and footprint in regions of the world where strong macroeconomic factors such as urbanization, infrastructure development and sustainability create demand for its products and services.



The Company's strategy has three primary elements:
Profitable Growth. The Company intends to expand into new and existing markets
by leveraging its collective knowledge of metallurgy, friction management and
power transmission to create value for Timken customers. Using
a highly collaborative technical selling approach, the Company places particular
emphasis on creating unique solutions for challenging and/or demanding
applications. The Company intends to grow in attractive market sectors around
the world, emphasizing those spaces that are highly fragmented, demand high
service and value the reliability and efficiency offered by Timken products. The
Company also targets applications that offer significant aftermarket demand,
thereby providing product and services revenue throughout the equipment's
lifetime.
Operating With Excellence. Timken operates with a relentless drive for
exceptional results and a passion for superior
execution. The Company embraces a continuous improvement culture that is charged
with increasing efficiency, lowering costs, eliminating waste, encouraging
organizational agility and building greater brand equity to fuel growth. This
requires the Company's ongoing commitment to attract, retain and develop the
best talent across the world.
Capital Deployment to Drive Shareholder Value. The Company is intently focused
on providing the highest returns
for shareholders through its capital allocation framework, which includes: (1)
investing in the core business through capital expenditures, research and
development and other organic growth initiatives; (2) pursuing strategic
acquisitions to broaden its portfolio and capabilities across diverse markets,
with a focus on bearings, adjacent power transmission products and related
services; (3) returning capital to shareholders through dividends and share
repurchases; and (4) maintaining a strong balance sheet and sufficient
liquidity. As part of this framework, the Company may also restructure,
reposition or divest underperforming product lines or assets.

The decrease in net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily driven by lower organic revenue and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes, partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions and favorable pricing. The decrease in net income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily due to the impact of lower volume and related manufacturing utilization, and unfavorable currency, partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense, favorable price/mix, and lower material and logistics costs. In addition, discrete tax items were favorable compared to the prior year, partially offset by higher restructuring charges and pension remeasurement actuarial losses. The decrease in net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily driven by lower organic revenue and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes, partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions.

Outlook:

In December 2019, a COVID-19 outbreak occurred in China and later spread to nearly all parts of the world. Throughout this pandemic, the Company has been adhering to mandates and other guidance from local governments and health authorities, including the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The Company has implemented risk mitigation plans across the enterprise to protect employees and reduce the risk of spreading the virus, while continuing to operate where permitted and to the extent practicable. Timken's main priority is the health of its employees and others in the communities where it does business.

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Timken has continued to operate and fill customer orders, and has adjusted production as required by local government directives and to reflect changes in global demand. During the first quarter, the Company's operations in China were shut down for approximately two weeks per a government directive. For most of the second quarter, the Company's operations were adversely impacted by lower global demand caused by the ongoing spread of COVID-19 around the world, which included various customer shut-downs and government imposed operating restrictions in places like India and Italy. Timken's operations in China are now running at near-normal levels and, across the rest of the world, government restrictions were mostly lifted by the end of the second quarter.

During the second quarter, the Company took steps to reduce costs by implementing temporary salary reductions, work furloughs and other actions. Recently, Timken began expanding and accelerating certain structural cost reduction initiatives to align its costs with near-term demand expectations and to improve profitability of the Company longer-term. Timken expects these structural cost reduction actions, combined with other cost reduction initiatives, will generate approximately $50-60 million of total year-on-year savings in the second half of 2020.

Given the continued uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company is not providing detailed sales and earnings guidance at this time. Timken expects revenue to remain lower over the remainder of the year as compared to 2019. The Company expects operating margins to be lower in the second half of 2020 versus the first half of 2020, due to the timing of realization with respect to cost reduction initiatives, normal seasonality, higher restructuring charges and other items.

Net sales decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to lower organic revenue of $201 million that was largely due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to lower organic revenue, the decrease was also due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes of $26 million, partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions of $31 million. Net sales decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019. The decrease was primarily due to lower organic revenue of $289 million due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to lower organic revenue, the decrease was also due to the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes of $42 million, partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions of $79 million.

Gross profit decreased for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the impact of lower volume of $87 million and related unfavorable manufacturing performance of $10 million (which is net of cost-reduction initiatives), as well as the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates of $11 million. These items were partially offset by lower material and logistics costs (including tariffs) of $14 million, favorable price/mix of $11 million and the net benefit of acquisitions of $8 million. Gross profit decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the impact of lower volume of $127 million and the related manufacturing utilization of $23 million, as well as the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates of $20 million. These items were partially offset by favorable price/mix of $24 million, the net benefit of acquisitions of $21 million and lower material and logistics costs (including tariffs) of $21 million. In addition, the Company incurred property losses of $6 million in the first six months of 2019 and did not incur similar costs in the first six months of 2020.

SG&A expenses decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to lower employee costs and related benefits and lower discretionary spending as the Company implemented cost reduction initiatives, including temporary salary reductions and work furloughs, to reduce costs to combat the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Performance-based compensation was also lower in the second quarter of 2020. SG&A expenses decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to lower employee costs and related benefits, lower performance-based compensation, and lower discretionary spending.

Impairment and restructuring charges of $3.1 million and $6.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were comprised primarily of severance and related benefits associated with initiatives to reduce headcount and right-size the Company's manufacturing footprint, including planned closures of the Company's Indianapolis, Indiana chain plant and the reorganization of the Company's Gaffney, South Carolina bearing facility. In addition, the Company recognized severance and related benefits as it began to accelerate and expand cost reduction initiatives. The Company expects to incur charges related to these initiatives of $8 million to $10 million during the remainder of 2020. In addition, the Company expects to incur additional charges related to other cost reduction initiatives to be implemented over the remainder of the year.

Impairment and restructuring charges of $1.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 were primarily due to severance and related benefits associated with a variety of initiatives to reduce headcount.

The Company expects to generate approximately $50 million to $60 million in year over year cost savings during the second half of 2020 as a result of the above mentioned initiatives, as well as other cost reduction initiatives executed during the remainder of the year.

Non-service pension and other postretirement expense increased in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to actuarial losses of $8.8 million realized in the second quarter of 2020 due to the remeasurement of pension plan assets and obligations for one of the Company's U.S. defined benefit pension plans. The remeasurement was required in the second quarter of 2020 as a result of lump sum payments to new retirees in 2020 that are expected to exceed annual service and interest costs. This increase was partially offset by higher amortization of prior service credit due to a plan amendment for the Company's postretirement benefit plans in the second half of 2019. Refer to Note 14 - Retirement Benefit Plans and Note 15 - Other Postretirement Benefit Plans in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Other (expense) income, net decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to higher foreign currency exchange losses, lower royalty income and higher losses on the disposal of fixed assets. Other income, net decreased in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to higher losses on the disposal of fixed assets and lower foreign currency gains.

Income tax expense decreased $5.6 million for the three months ended June 30,
2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to lower
pre-tax earnings. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30,
2020 was 31.2% as compared to 26.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2019,
primarily due to higher discrete tax expense in the current year compared to
discrete tax benefits in the prior year.
Income tax expense decreased $17.3 million for the six months ended June 30,
2020 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019 primarily due to lower
pre-tax earnings. Income tax expense also decreased due to additional accruals
recorded discretely for uncertain tax positions in the prior year related to
U.S. Tax Reform. These impacts were partially offset by the projected increase
in the mix of earnings in the international jurisdictions with relatively higher
tax rates.
Refer to Note 6 - Income Taxes for more information on the computation of the
income tax expense in interim periods.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act"), enacted by
the U.S. on March 27, 2020, did not have a material impact on the Company's
provision for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company
is continuing to analyze the ongoing impact of the CARES Act.


Business Segments

The Company's reportable segments are business units that serve different industry sectors. While the segments operate using shared infrastructure, each reportable segment is managed to address specific customer needs in these diverse market sectors. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2019, the main operating income metric used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment was EBITDA. The Company made this change because recent acquisitions have resulted in an increased amount of purchase accounting amortization expense that affects comparability of results across periods and versus other companies. The primary measurement used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment prior to the fourth quarter of 2019 was earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT"). Segment results have been revised for all periods presented to be consistent with the new measure of segment performance. Refer to Note 5 - Segment Information in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the reconciliation of EBITDA by segment to consolidated income before income taxes.

The presentation of segment results below includes a reconciliation of the changes in net sales for each segment reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to net sales adjusted to remove the effects of acquisitions completed in 2020 and 2019 and foreign currency exchange rate changes. The effects of acquisitions and foreign currency exchange rate changes on net sales are removed to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage change in net sales on a comparable basis from period to period.



The following items highlight the Company's acquisitions completed in 2019 by
segment based on the customers and underlying markets served:
•      The Company acquired BEKA during the fourth quarter of 2019. The majority
       of the results for BEKA are reported in the Mobile Industries segment.


•      The Company acquired Diamond Chain during the second quarter of 2019. The
       majority of the results for Diamond Chain are reported in the Process
       Industries segment.

The Mobile Industries segment's net sales, excluding the effects of acquisitions and foreign currency exchange rate changes, decreased $158.4 million or 32.1% in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019, reflecting lower shipments across most market sectors due in large part to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. EBITDA decreased by $39.2 million or 50.3% in the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the three months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the impact of lower volume and related manufacturing utilization, as well as the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes. These decreases were partially offset by the favorable impact of cost-reduction initiatives, including temporary salary reductions and work furloughs, favorable price/mix, lower material and logistics costs, lower performance-based compensation and the favorable impact of acquisitions. The Mobile Industries segment's net sales, excluding the effects of acquisitions and foreign currency exchange rate changes, decreased $210.6 million or 21.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019, reflecting lower shipments across most market sectors, partially offset by organic growth in the aerospace sector, as well as higher pricing. EBITDA decreased by $43.4 million or 27.6% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to the impact of lower volume and related manufacturing utilization, as well as the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes.

The Balance Sheet

The following discussion is a comparison of the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Current Assets:


                                       June 30,   December 31,
                                         2020         2019        $ Change  % Change

Inventories, net                          784.0           842.0     (58.0 )   (6.9 )%
Deferred charges and prepaid expenses      33.4            36.7      (3.3 )   (9.0 )%
Other current assets                      105.6           105.4       0.2      0.2  %
   Total current assets               $ 2,006.9  $      1,874.6  $  132.3      7.1  %


Refer to the "Cash Flows" section for discussion on the change in Cash and cash equivalents. Inventories, net decreased primarily due to a decrease in finished goods inventory of $39 million as a result of lower second quarter demand and related efforts to reduce inventory, as well as the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes of $14 million.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Net:


                                    June 30,    December 31,
                                      2020          2019       $ Change  % Change

Property, plant and equipment, net $ 962.1 $ 989.2 $ (27.1 ) (2.7 )%

The decrease in net property, plant and equipment for the six months of 2020 was primarily due to depreciation in 2020 of $56 million and the net impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes of $19 million, partially offset by capital expenditures of $53 million.

The decrease in other intangible assets was primarily due to current-year amortization of $23 million and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes of $2 million.

At December 31, 2019, as a result of a plan amendment, one of the Company's postretirement benefit plans was overfunded. The decrease in non-current other postretirement benefit assets was due to the creation of a new VEBA trust in January 2020. The Company transferred $50 million from an existing VEBA trust under the overfunded plan to fund the new VEBA trust to pay certain active employees' medical benefits, which caused the postretirement plan to become underfunded. The remaining balance of this plan, after the transfer of the $50 million, was reclassified to accrued postretirement benefits on the Consolidated Balance sheet as of June 30, 2020. Refer to Note 15 - Other Postretirement Benefit Plans in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

The increase in short-term debt was primarily due to the increase in borrowings under variable-rate lines of credit for the Company's foreign subsidiaries. The Company increased its borrowings in order to increase its cash position and enhance the Company's financial flexibility due to the uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease in the current portion of long-term debt was primarily due to the payment of $47 million on the Company's 2020 Term Loan that matures in September 2020.

The decrease in accounts payable was primarily due to a decrease in purchasing activity as a result of lower sales volume. The decrease in accrued salaries, wages and benefits was primarily due to the 2019 performance-based compensation exceeding accruals for 2020 performance-based compensation, partially offset by increases in payroll tax accruals due to deferral of payments until 2021 and 2022 as allowed under the U.S. Cares Act.

The increase in income taxes payable was primarily due to the current year income tax expense, as well as the deferral of second quarter income tax payments, partially offset by cash payments.

The increase in long-term debt was primarily due to an increase in borrowings of $185 million under the Company's Senior Credit Facility. The incremental borrowings were intended to increase the Company's cash position and enhance financial flexibility during this period of uncertainty caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This increase was partially offset by the payoff of borrowings under the Accounts Receivable facility.

The increase in accrued postretirement benefits was primarily due to the creation of the new VEBA trust. In January 2020, the Company transferred $50 million from an existing VEBA trust under the Company's postretirement benefit plans to fund the new VEBA trust to pay certain active employees' medical benefits. The creation of the new VEBA trust shifted the balance from overfunded as of December 31, 2020 to a liability position as of June 30, 2020. Refer to Note 15 - Other Postretirement Benefit Plans in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Earnings invested in the business in the six months of 2020 increased by net income attributable to the Company of $142.6 million, partially offset by dividends declared of $43.9 million. The increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss was primarily due to foreign currency translation adjustments of $48.0 million. See Other Disclosures - Foreign Currency for further discussion regarding the impact of foreign currency translation. The increase in treasury shares was primarily due to the Company's purchase of one million of its common shares for $42.3 million in the first quarter of 2020, partially offset by $21.7 million of new shares issued, net of shares surrendered, for stock compensation plans in 2020.
