Background

Background
 
Hillenbrand, Inc. (“Hillenbrand”) is a global diversified industrial company with multiple market-leading brands that serve a wide variety of industries across the globe.  We strive to provide superior return for our shareholders, exceptional value for our customers, and great professional opportunities for our employees through deployment of the Hillenbrand Operating Model (HOM). The HOM is a consistent and repeatable framework designed to produce sustainable and predictable results.  The HOM describes our mission, vision, values and mindset as leaders; applies our management practices in Strategy Management, Segmentation, Lean, Talent Development, and Acquisitions; and prescribes three steps (Understand, Focus and Grow) designed to make our businesses both bigger and better.  Our goal is to continue developing Hillenbrand as a world-class global diversified industrial company through the deployment of the HOM.

Our strategy is to leverage our historically strong financial foundation and the HOM to deliver sustainable profit growth, revenue expansion and substantial free cash flow and then reinvest available cash in new growth initiatives that are focused on building leadership positions in our core markets and near adjacencies, both organically and inorganically, in order to create shareholder value.

Hillenbrand is composed of two segments:  the Process Equipment Group and Batesville®.  The Process Equipment Group businesses design, develop, manufacture and service highly engineered industrial equipment around the world.  Batesville is a recognized leader in the North American death care industry.  Hillenbrand was incorporated on November 1, 2007, in the state of Indiana and began trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “HI” on April 1, 2008.  “Hillenbrand,” “the Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar words refer to Hillenbrand and its subsidiaries.

Correction of Errors

During 2014, we recorded an adjustment to operating expenses to correct errors related to the accounting for sales commissions at Coperion in 2013.  The adjustment reduced operating expenses of 2014 by $2.0, which should have been recorded in 2013. We believe the impact of this $2.0 adjustment to correct a prior period error was immaterial to our consolidated financial statements for the current and prior periods.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of presentation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hillenbrand and its subsidiaries.  They also include two minor subsidiaries where the Company’s ownership percentage is less than 100%.  The portion of the business that is not owned by the Company is presented as noncontrolling interests within equity in the balance sheets.  Income attributable to the noncontrolling interests is separately reported within the statements of income.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. 
 
Use of estimates — We prepared the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”).  GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Foreign currency translation — The financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates for operating results.  Unrealized translation gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity.  When a transaction is denominated in a currency other than the subsidiary’s functional currency, we recognize a transaction gain or loss in “other income (expense), net” when the transaction is settled.
 
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.  The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents are valued at cost, which approximates their fair value.
 
Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and generally do not bear interest, unless they become past due.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is a best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses and collection risk in the existing accounts receivable portfolio.  The allowance for cash discounts and sales returns reserve are based upon historical experience and trends.  Account balances are charged against the allowance when we believe it is probable the receivable will not be recovered.   We generally hold trade accounts receivable until they are collected.  At September 30, 2016 and 2015, we had reserves against trade receivables of $21.0 and $20.0.
 
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market.  Inventory costs are determined by the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method for approximately 32% and 28% of inventories at September 30, 2016 and 2015.  Costs of remaining inventories have been determined principally by the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) and average cost methods.  If the FIFO method of inventory accounting, which approximates current cost, had been used for inventory accounted for using the LIFO method, that inventory would have been approximately $15.2 and $14.7 higher than reported at September 30, 2016 and 2015.

Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using principally the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of three to 50 years for buildings and improvements and three to 25 years for machinery and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Upon disposal or retirement, the cost and accumulated depreciation of assets are eliminated. Any gain or loss is reflected in the Company’s income from operations. We review these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future undiscounted cash flows relating to the asset are less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value. Total depreciation expense for 2016, 2015, and 2014 was $25.6, $26.2, and $26.8.

Intangible assets are stated at the lower of cost or fair value.  With the exception of certain trade names, intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from three to 21 years, representing the period over which we expect to receive future economic benefits from these assets.  We assess the carrying value of trade names annually, or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate there may be impairment.   Estimated amortization expense related to intangible assets for the next five years is: $30.8 in 2017, $30.4 in 2018, $30.2 in 2019, $29.7 in 2020, and $29.0 in 2021.

As a result of the required annual impairment assessment performed in the third quarter of 2016, the Company tested the recoverability of its indefinite-lived assets, and recorded a trade name impairment charge of $2.2 related to the Process Equipment Group segment on two trade names. The impairment charge was included in operating expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The decline in the estimated fair value of these trade names was largely driven by the decreased demand for equipment and parts used in coal mining and coal power.

Goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to annual impairment tests.  Goodwill has been assigned to reporting units.  We assess the carrying value of goodwill annually, or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate there may be impairment.  Impairment testing is performed at a reporting unit level.

Investments — Our investment portfolio consists of investments in private equity limited partnerships.  The carrying value of the portfolio was $7.6 and $8.3 at September 30, 2016 and 2015 and is included in other current assets and other assets on the balance sheets.  We use the equity method of accounting for substantially all private equity limited partnerships, with earnings or losses reported in “other income (expense), net” in the income statements.  Certain of these investments require commitments by us to potentially provide additional funding of up to $1.0.  The timing of funding is uncertain, but is expected to occur over the next three to five years.  We regularly evaluate all investments for possible impairment.
 
Environmental liabilities — Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation are expensed.  A reserve is established when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.  These reserves are determined without consideration of possible loss recoveries.  Based on consultations with an environmental engineer, the range of liability is estimated based on current interpretations of environmental laws and regulations.  A determination is made of the specific measures that are believed to be required to remediate the site, the estimated total cost to carry out the remediation plan, and the periods in which we will make payments toward the remediation plan.  We do not make an estimate of inflation for environmental matters because the number of sites is small, the magnitude of costs to execute remediation plans is not significant, and the estimated time frames to remediate sites are not believed to be lengthy.
 
Specific costs included in environmental expense and reserves include site assessment, remediation plan development, clean-up costs, post-remediation expenditures, monitoring, fines, penalties, and legal fees.  The amount reserved represents the expected undiscounted future cash outflows associated with such plans and actions and is not significant to Hillenbrand.
 
Self-insurance — We are self-funded up to certain limits for product and general liability, workers compensation, and auto liability insurance programs, as well as certain employee health benefits including medical, drug, and dental.  These policies have deductibles and self-funded retentions up to $0.5 per occurrence, depending upon the type of coverage and policy period.  Our policy is to estimate reserves based upon a number of factors, including known claims, estimated incurred but not reported claims, and outside actuarial analysis.  The outside actuarial analysis is based on historical information along with certain assumptions about future events.  These reserves are classified as other current and other long-term liabilities within the balance sheets.
 
Treasury stock consists of our common shares that have been issued but subsequently reacquired.  We account for treasury stock purchases under the cost method.  When these shares are reissued, we use an average-cost method to determine cost.  Proceeds in excess of cost are credited to additional paid-in capital.
 
On July 24, 2008, our Board of Directors approved the repurchase of up to $100.0 of common stock.  The program has no expiration date, but may be terminated by the Board of Directors at any time.  As of September 30, 2016, we had repurchased approximately 2,800,000 shares for approximately $71.4, which were classified as treasury stock.  During 2016, approximately 700,000 shares were repurchased, for a cost of approximately $21.2.  In 2016 and 2015, approximately 800,000 shares and 300,000 shares were issued from treasury stock under our stock compensation programs.  At September 30, 2016, we had approximately $28.6 remaining for share repurchases under the existing Board authorization.
 
Preferred stock — The Company has authorized 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock (no par value), of which no shares were issued at September 30, 2016 and 2015.
 
Accumulated other comprehensive loss included all changes in Hillenbrand shareholders’ equity during a period except those that resulted from investments by or distributions to our shareholders.

Revenue recognition — Net revenue includes gross revenue less sales discounts, customer rebates, sales incentives, and product returns, all of which require us to make estimates for the portion of these allowances that have yet to be credited or paid to our customers.  We estimate these allowances based upon historical rates and projections of customer purchases toward contractual rebate thresholds.
 
A portion of Hillenbrand’s revenue is derived from long-term manufacturing contracts.  The majority of this revenue is recognized based on the percentage-of-completion method.  Under this method, revenue is recognized based upon the costs incurred to date as compared to the total estimated project costs.  Approximately 24%, 25%, and 25% of Hillenbrand’s revenue was attributable to these long-term manufacturing contracts for 2016, 2015, and 2014.
 
Accounting for these contracts involves management judgment in estimating total contract revenue and cost.  Contract revenues are largely determined by negotiated contract prices and quantities, modified by our assumptions regarding contract options, change orders, and incentive and award provisions associated with technical performance clauses.  Contract costs are incurred over longer periods of time and, accordingly, the estimation of these costs requires management judgment.  Cost estimates are largely based on negotiated or estimated purchase contract terms, historical performance trends, and other economic projections.  Significant factors that influence these estimates include inflationary trends, technical and schedule risk, internal and subcontractor performance trends, business volume assumptions, asset utilization, and anticipated labor agreements.  Revenue and cost estimates are regularly monitored and revised based on changes in circumstances.  Anticipated losses on long-term contracts are recognized immediately when such losses become evident.  We maintain financial controls over the customer qualification, contract pricing, and estimation processes to reduce the risk of contract losses.
 
Revenue for components, most replacement parts, and service is recognized when title and risk of loss passes to the customer.
 
Cost of goods sold consists primarily of purchased material costs, fixed manufacturing expense, variable direct labor, and overhead costs.  It also includes costs associated with the distribution and delivery of products.
 
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred as a component of operating expenses and were $12.6, $12.7, and $14.4 for 2016, 2015, and 2014.
 
Warranty costs — We provide for the estimated warranty cost of a product at the time revenue is recognized.  Warranty expense is accrued based upon historical information and may also include specific provisions for known conditions.  Warranty obligations are affected by actual product performance and by material usage and service costs incurred in making product corrections.  Our warranty provision takes into account the best estimate of amounts necessary to settle future and existing claims on products sold.  The Process Equipment Group generally offers a one to two-year warranty on a majority of its products.  It engages in extensive product quality programs and processes in an effort to minimize warranty obligations, including active monitoring and evaluation of the quality of component suppliers.  Warranty reserves were $16.6 and $18.2 for 2016 and 2015.  Warranty costs were $4.3, $4.0, and $4.5 for 2016, 2015, and 2014.
 
Income taxes — We establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  The majority of the cash at our foreign subsidiaries represents earnings considered to be permanently reinvested for which deferred taxes have not been provided as we do not intend, nor do we foresee a need, to repatriate these funds.
 
We have a variety of deferred income tax assets in numerous tax jurisdictions.  The recoverability of these deferred income tax assets is assessed periodically and valuation allowances are recognized if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized.  When performing this assessment, we consider future taxable income, the reversal of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies.  We account for accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Derivative financial instruments — The Company has hedging programs in place to manage its currency exposures.  The objectives of our hedging programs are to mitigate exposures in gross margin and non-functional-currency-denominated assets and liabilities.   Under these programs, we use derivative financial instruments to manage the economic impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates.  These include foreign currency exchange forward contracts, which generally have terms from one to 24 months.   

The Company has interest rate swaps in place to manage or hedge the risks associated with our indebtedness and interest payments. Our objectives in using interest rate swaps are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.

We require that hedging derivative instruments be highly effective in reducing the risk exposure that they are designated to hedge. As a result, there was no significant ineffectiveness from any of our derivative activities during the period. We formally designate any instrument that meets these hedging criteria as a hedge.

The aggregate notional amount of all derivative instruments was $208.3 and $136.7 at September 30, 2016 and 2015.

We measure all derivative instruments at fair value and report them on our balance sheets as assets or liabilities.  Derivative instruments designated as hedges for customer orders or intercompany purchases have an offsetting tax-adjusted amount in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss).  Derivative instruments designated to hedge foreign currency exposures within our balance sheet have an offsetting amount recorded in “Other income (expense), net”.  The carrying value of all of these contracts at fair value resulted in assets of $1.4 and $1.1 (included in Other current assets) and liabilities of $3.3 and $5.8 (included in Other current liabilities) at September 30, 2016 and 2015.  See Note 13 for additional information on the fair value of our derivative instruments.
 
Changes in the fair value of derivatives are accounted for depending on the intended use of the derivative, designation of the hedging relationship, and whether or not the criteria to apply hedge accounting has been satisfied.  Gains and losses on derivative instruments reported in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) are subsequently included in earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged item.  The amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently through earnings were not significant from 2014 through 2016.  Net gains and losses on all derivative instruments were substantially offset by foreign exchange effects on the hedged items.
 
The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for purposes of speculation.
 
Business acquisitions and related business acquisition and integration costs — Assets and liabilities associated with business acquisitions are recorded at fair value, using the acquisition method of accounting.  We allocate the purchase price of acquisitions based upon the fair value of each component, which may be derived from observable or unobservable inputs and assumptions.  We may utilize third-party valuation specialists to assist us in this allocation.  Initial purchase price allocations are preliminary and subject to revision within the measurement period, generally not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition.
 
Business acquisition and integration costs are expensed as incurred, and are reported as a component of cost of goods sold, operating expenses, interest expense, and “other income (expense), net,” depending on the nature of the cost.  We define these costs to include finder’s fees, advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees, as well as travel associated with the evaluation and effort to acquire specific businesses.  Business acquisition and integration costs also include costs associated with acquisition tax planning, retention bonuses, and related integration costs.  These costs exclude the ongoing expenses of our business development department.
 
Restructuring costs may occur when we take action to exit or significantly curtail a part of our operations or change the deployment of assets or personnel.  A restructuring charge can consist of an impairment or accelerated depreciation of effected assets, severance costs associated with reductions to the workforce, costs to terminate an operating lease or contract, and charges for legal obligations for which no future benefit will be derived.
 
Recently adopted accounting standards — In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations.  Under ASU 2014-8, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations.  ASU 2014-8 became effective and was adopted for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2015.  The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The Company elected to early adopt this standard for our fiscal year 2016. The Company applied this standard prospectively and thus prior periods have not been adjusted.
The impact of the adoption resulted in the following:
The Company recorded a tax benefit of $2.4 million within the provision for income taxes for the year ended September 30, 2016, related to the excess tax benefit on stock options, time-based stock awards, and performance-based stock awards. Prior to adoption, this amount would have been recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. This change could create volatility in the Company’s effective tax rate going forward. We elected to present the cumulative excess tax benefit of $2.4 entirely in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 because the impact of recording the benefit to each respective quarter was not significant.
The Company elected not to change our policy on accounting for forfeitures and continued to estimate the total number of awards for which the requisite service period will not be rendered.
The Company no longer reclassifies the excess tax benefit from operating activities to financing activities in the statement of cash flows.
The Company excluded the excess tax benefits from the assumed proceeds available to repurchase shares in the computation of our diluted earnings per share for the year ended September 30, 2016. This increased our diluted weighted average common shares outstanding by approximately 20,000 shares for the year ended September 30, 2016.
Recently issued accounting standards — In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The FASB has also issued several updates to ASU 2014-09. The new standard supersedes U.S. GAAP guidance on revenue recognition and requires the use of more estimates and judgments than the present standards. It also requires significant disclosures sufficient to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted on October 1, 2017. We have not yet selected a transition method, and we are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.  ASU 2014-12 states that a performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition.  ASU 2014-12 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted.  We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-12 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items. ASU 2015-01 eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The new standard amends the consolidation guidance in ASC 810 and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required under current generally accepted accounting principles. ASU 2015-02 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-02 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest. ASU 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest: Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. This standard permits an entity to defer and present debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements as an asset and to subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. These new standards do not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs. ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software. ASU 2015-05 helps entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement by providing guidance as to whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software. ASU 2015-05 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-05 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330). Under current FASB standards, an entity is required to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. ASU 2015-11 requires an entity to measure inventory within the scope of this update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. ASU 2015-11 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-11 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations. ASU 2015-16 simplifies the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts. The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that the acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amount is determined. The acquirer is also required to record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.  In addition, an entity is required to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes to the financial statements the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-16 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes. ASU 2015-17 requires that deferred income tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position in order to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. ASU 2015-17 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We expect that ASU 2015-17 will have a financial statement presentation impact only, as all deferred income tax assets and liabilities will be classified as noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheet.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for leases that have lease terms of more than twelve months.  For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance, with the classifications based on criteria that are similar to those applied under the current lease guidance, without the explicit bright lines.  ASU 2016-02 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-06, Derivatives and Hedging: Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments. ASU 2016-06 clarifies the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts. An entity performing the assessment under the amendment is required to assess the embedded call (put) options solely in accordance with the four-step decision sequence. ASU 2016-06 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-06 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Business Acquisitions

Business Acquisitions
 
We incurred $3.7 of business acquisition and integration costs during 2016 recorded in operating expenses.

Abel
 
We completed the acquisition of Abel Pumps LP and Abel GmbH & Co. KG and certain of their affiliates (collectively “Abel”) on October 2, 2015, for €95 in cash.  We utilized borrowings under our $700.0 revolving credit facility and $180.0 term loan (together, the “Facility”), to fund this acquisition. Based in Büchen, Germany, Abel is a globally-recognized leader in positive displacement pumps. Abel specializes in designing, developing, and manufacturing piston and piston diaphragm pumps as well as pumping solutions and in providing related parts and service. This equipment is sold under the ABEL® Pump Technology brand into the power generation, wastewater treatment, mining, general industry, and marine markets. The results of Abel are reported in our Process Equipment Group segment for the relevant periods.

Based on the final purchase allocation, we recorded goodwill of $36, and acquired identifiable intangible assets of $58, which consisted of $5 of trade names not subject to amortization, $9 of developed technology, $3 of backlog, and $41 of customer relationships. Goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Supplemental proforma information has not been provided as the acquisition did not have a material impact on consolidated results of operations.

Red Valve

On February 1, 2016, we completed the acquisition of Red Valve Company, Inc. (“Red Valve”) for $130.4 in cash, net of certain adjustments. We utilized borrowings under our Facility, to fund this acquisition. Based in Carnegie, Pennsylvania, Red Valve is a global leader in highly-engineered valves designed to operate in the harshest municipal and industrial wastewater environments. Its products support mission critical applications in water/wastewater, power and mining, and other general industrial markets. The results of Red Valve are reported in our Process Equipment Group segment for the relevant periods.

Based on the preliminary purchase allocation, we recorded goodwill of $60, and acquired identifiable intangible assets of $61, which consisted of $4 of trade names not subject to amortization, $8 of developed technology, $1 of backlog, and $48 of customer relationships. Goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Supplemental proforma information has not been provided as the acquisition did not have a material impact on consolidated results of operations.

Both of these acquisitions continue Hillenbrand’s strategy to transform into a world-class global diversified industrial company by increasing our ability to expand into new markets and geographies within the highly attractive flow control space.

On December 19, 2014, the Company entered into a Second Amendment (the “JPM Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of November 19, 2012, which governs our Facility, by and among the Company and certain of its affiliates, the lenders party thereto from time to time, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The JPM Amendment provides for revolving loans of up to $700.0 and a term loan in the amount of $180.0 and extends the maturity date of the Facility to December 19, 2019. The JPM Amendment also amends a financial covenant in the Facility to provide the Company and its subsidiaries greater flexibility to consummate acquisitions. The financial covenant amendment allows for an increase in the Company’s permitted maximum leverage ratio during the three quarters subsequent to an acquisition valued in excess of $75.0. We are allowed this increase up to two times during the term of the Facility (each, a “Leverage Holiday”). New deferred financing costs related to the JPM Amendment were $1.0, which along with existing costs of $2.0, are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Facility.

Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at variable rates plus a margin amount based upon our leverage.  There is also a facility fee based upon our leverage.  All revolving amounts due under the Facility mature upon expiration.  By its terms, the term loan amortizes such that 38% of the principal will be repaid over approximately a five-year term, with the balance due at maturity.  The Company also has the ability, under certain circumstances and with the lenders’ approval, to increase the total borrowing capacity under the Facility by $300.0. These borrowings are classified as long-term, with the exception of the term loan, where payments due within the next 12 months are classified as current. The Facility is an unsubordinated obligation of Hillenbrand and ranks equally in right of payment with all our other existing and future unsubordinated obligations.
 
With respect to the Facility, as of September 30, 2016, we had $9.5 in outstanding letters of credit issued and $492.0 of maximum borrowing capacity.  $359.6 of borrowing capacity is immediately available based on our leverage covenant at September 30, 2016, with additional amounts available in the event of a qualifying acquisition.  The weighted-average interest rates on borrowings under the Facility were 1.48% and 1.29% for 2016 and 2015.  The weighted average facility fee was 0.21% and 0.22% for 2016 and 2015. The weighted-average interest rate on the term loan was 1.76% and 1.54% for 2016 and 2015. We have interest rate swaps on $50.0 of outstanding borrowings under the Facility in order to manage exposure to our variable rate interest payments.

In July 2010, we issued $150 of senior unsecured notes (“Notes”) due July 2020.  The Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 5.5% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears beginning January 2011.  The Notes were issued at a discount of $1.6, resulting in an initial carrying value of $148.4.  We are amortizing the discount to interest expense over the term of the Notes using the effective interest rate method, resulting in an annual interest rate of 5.65%.  Deferred financing costs associated with the Notes of $2.1 are being amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the Notes.  The Notes are unsubordinated obligations of Hillenbrand and rank equally in right of payment with all of our other existing and future unsubordinated obligations.
 
The indenture governing the Notes does not limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness.  It does, however, contain certain covenants that restrict our ability to incur secured debt and to engage in certain sale and leaseback transactions.  The indenture provides holders of debt securities with remedies if we fail to perform specific obligations.  In the event of a “Change of Control Triggering Event” (as defined in the indenture), each holder of the Notes has the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion of its Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.  The Notes are redeemable with prior notice at a price equal to par plus accrued interest and a make-whole amount.

On December 15, 2014, we issued $100.0 in 4.60% Series A unsecured notes (“Series A Notes”) pursuant to the Private Shelf Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2012 (as amended, the “Shelf Agreement”), among the Company, Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“Prudential”) and each Prudential Affiliate (as defined therein) that became a purchaser thereunder. The Series A Notes are unsecured, mature on December 15, 2024, and bear interest at 4.60% payable semi-annually in arrears. The Company may at any time upon providing notice, prepay all or part of the Series A Notes at 100% of the principal amount prepaid plus a Make-Whole Amount (as defined therein). Deferred financing costs of $0.4 related to the Series A Notes are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the Series A Notes.

On December 15, 2014, December 19, 2014, and March 24, 2016, the Company and certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries entered into amendments (collectively, the “Prudential Amendments”) to the Shelf Agreement. The Prudential Amendments, among other things, amend a financial covenant contained in the Shelf Agreement to provide for Leverage Holidays similar to those discussed above regarding the Facility, extend the maturity date of the Shelf Agreement to March 24, 2019, and increase the aggregate principal amount available under the private shelf facility from $150 to $200, of which $100.0 has been drawn. The Shelf Agreement is an uncommitted facility; the issuance of notes under the Shelf Agreement is subject to successful placement by Prudential. If a Leverage Holiday is elected, in addition to the interest accruing on the Series A Notes, the Company must pay to each holder of a Series A Note a fee equivalent to 0.75% per annum during the Leverage Holiday period.

On February 18, 2015, we entered into an Amendment Agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”), amending and restating our €150.0 Syndicated Letter of Guarantee Facility (as amended, “LG Facility”), dated as of June 3, 2013, under which unsecured letters of credit, bank guarantees, or other surety bonds may be issued.  The Amendment Agreement extends the maturity date of the LG Facility until at least December 19, 2019, and, among other amendments, amends a financial covenant contained in the LG Facility to provide for Leverage Holidays similar to those discussed above regarding the Facility. The Company has the potential, under certain circumstances and with the lenders’ approval, to increase the total capacity under the LG facility by an additional €70.0.  Guarantees provided under the LG Facility are priced at tiered rates based upon our leverage and charges for unused capacity are assessed at 35% of the applicable guarantee rate (0.90% at September 30, 2016).  Deferred financing costs of $1.3 are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the LG Facility.  There were no direct borrowings under the LG Facility.

In the normal course of business, the Process Equipment Group provides to certain customers bank guarantees and other credit arrangements in support of performance, warranty, advance payment, and other contractual obligations.  This form of trade finance is customary in the industry and, as a result, we are required to maintain adequate capacity to provide the guarantees.  As of September 30, 2016, we had credit arrangements totaling $212.6, under which $111.7 was utilized for this purpose.  These arrangements included the LG Facility and other ancillary credit facilities.
 
The availability of borrowings under the Facility, the Shelf Agreement, and the LG Facility is subject to our ability to meet certain conditions including compliance with covenants, absence of default, and continued accuracy of certain representations and warranties.  Financial covenants include a maximum ratio of Indebtedness to EBITDA (as defined in the agreements) of 3.5 to 1.0 and a minimum ratio of EBITDA (as defined in the agreements) to interest expense of 3.5 to 1.0.  As of September 30, 2016, we were in compliance with all covenants.

The Facility, Notes, Series A Notes, and LG Facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.

We had restricted cash of $0.8 and $0.8 at September 30, 2016 and 2015.

Defined Benefit Retirement Plans — Approximately 46% of our employees participate in one of four defined benefit retirement programs, including the master defined benefit retirement plan in the U.S., the defined benefit plans of our German and Swiss subsidiaries, and the supplemental executive defined benefit retirement plan.  We fund the pension trusts in compliance with ERISA or local funding requirements and as necessary to provide for current service and for any unfunded projected future benefit obligations over a reasonable period.  The benefits for these plans are based primarily on years of service and the employee’s level of compensation during specific periods of employment.  All pension plans have a September 30 measurement date.

Prior to 2016, we estimated the service and interest cost components of our defined benefit retirement plans using a single weighted-average discount rate derived from the yield curve used to measure the benefit obligation at the beginning of the period. Beginning in fiscal 2016, we elected to use a full yield curve approach in the estimation of these components of benefit cost. Under this approach, we applied discounting using individual spot rates from a yield curve composed of the rates of return on several hundred high-quality, fixed income corporate bonds available at the measurement date. These spot rates align to each of the projected benefit obligations and service cost cash flows. The service cost component relates to the active participants in the plan, so the relevant cash flows on which to apply the yield curve are considerably longer in duration on average than the total projected benefit obligation cash flows, which also include benefit payments to retirees. Interest cost is computed by multiplying each spot rate by the corresponding discounted projected benefit obligation cash flows. The full yield curve approach reduces any actuarial gains and losses based upon interest rate expectations (e.g. built-in gains in interest cost in an upward sloping yield curve scenario), or gains and losses merely resulting from the timing and magnitude of cash outflows associated with our benefit obligations.
We elected the full yield curve approach in 2016 to improve the correlation between projected benefit cash flows and the corresponding yield curve spot rates and to provide a more precise measurement of service and interest rate costs. This change did not affect the measurement of our total benefit obligations as the change in service cost and interest cost was completely offset in the actuarial (gain) loss reported. We accounted for this change as a change in estimate prospectively starting in fiscal 2016. The change drove a collective decrease in service cost and interest cost of approximately $3.1 in 2016.
On April 1, 2015, we announced an offer to provide former employees who are participants in the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plan (the “Plan”) the opportunity to elect a lump sum distribution of their earned Plan benefits. The Plan’s fiduciaries made lump sum payments to electing eligible participants in September 2015, funded by the existing assets in the Plan. As a result, the assets in the Plan decreased by benefits paid of $75.9, and the projected obligation of the plan decreased by $81.9, consisting of benefits paid of $75.9 and the gain due to settlement of $6.0, which is included in accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company also recorded a non-cash income statement settlement pre-tax charge of $17.7 in September 2015.

The discount rates are evaluated annually based on current market conditions.  In setting these rates, we utilize long-term bond indices and yield curves as a preliminary indication of interest rate movements, then make adjustments to the indices to reflect differences in the terms of the bonds covered under the indices in comparison to the projected outflow of pension obligations. See prior comments on our change to a full yield curve approach in 2016.  The overall expected long-term rate of return is based on historical and expected future returns, which are inflation-adjusted and weighted for the expected return for each component of the investment portfolio.  The rate of assumed compensation increase is also based on our specific historical trends of past wage adjustments in recent years.
 
U.S. Pension Plan Assets — Long-term strategic investment objectives utilize a diversified mix of equity and fixed income securities to preserve the funded status of the trusts, and balance risk and return.  The primary investment strategy is a dynamic target allocation method that periodically rebalances among various investment categories depending on the current funded position.  This program is designed to actively move from return-seeking investments (such as equities) toward liability-hedging investments (such as long-duration fixed income) as funding levels improve.  The target investment in return-seeking assets is not to exceed 60% of total domestic plan assets. Plan assets are invested by the plans’ fiduciaries, which direct investments according to specific policies.  Those policies subject investments to the following restrictions in our domestic plan: short-term securities must be rated A2/P2 or higher, liability-hedging fixed income securities must have an average quality credit rating of investment grade and investments in equities in any one company may not exceed 10% of the equity portfolio.

On October 3, 2016, subsequent to the Consolidated Balance Sheet date, we made an $80.0 contribution to the Plan not reflected in the tables above, using cash on hand and funds borrowed from our Facility. Although this action increases Plan assets and reduces expected 2017 pension expense, the majority of the pension expense savings in 2017 from this action is expected to be offset by the additional interest expense on the funds borrowed and certain potential tax effects from the transaction.
Also, on November 14, 2016, the Company began implementing a plan to transition our non-bargaining U.S. employees from a defined benefit-based model to a defined contribution structure over a three-year sunset period for certain employees beginning on January 1, 2017. This change causes a remeasurement event for the Plan with a new measurement date of October 31, 2016, as the event eliminates future benefit accruals in the Plan for the affected populations. The Company does not expect the remeasurement resulting from this action to cause a material change in its expected pension expense in 2017, and assumptions used for the remeasurement are expected to not materially differ from the assumptions highlighted above for the September 30, 2016 measurement.
Non-U.S. Pension Plan Assets — Long-term strategic investment objectives utilize a diversified mix of suitable assets of appropriate liquidity to generate income and capital growth that, together with contributions from participants and Hillenbrand, we believe will meet the cost of the current and future benefits that the plan provides.  Long-term strategic investment objectives also seek to limit the risk of the assets failing to meet the liabilities over the long term.
 
None of Hillenbrand’s common stock was directly owned by the pension plan trusts at September 30, 2016.
 
The tables below provide the fair value of our pension plan assets by asset category at September 30, 2016 and 2015.  The accounting guidance on fair value measurements specifies a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques (Level 1, 2, and 3).  See Note 13 for definitions.
 
Fair values are determined as follows:
 
Cash equivalents are stated at the carrying amount, which approximates fair value, or at the fund’s net asset value.
Equity securities are stated at the last reported sales price on the day of valuation.
Corporate bonds actively traded are stated at the closing price reported in the active markets in which the bonds are traded.
Government index funds are stated at the closing price reported in the active market in which the fund is traded.
Corporate bond funds and equity mutual funds are stated at the closing price in the active markets in which the underlying securities of the funds are traded.
Real estate is stated based on a discounted cash flow approach, which includes future rental receipts, expenses, and residual values as the highest and best use of the real estate from a market participant view as rental property.

U.S. Pension Plans

Effective September 30, 2015, we adopted new accounting guidance for investments that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent). As a result of the adoption of this new guidance, certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) as a practical expedient are not required to be classified in the fair value hierarchy. At September 30, 2016, and 2015, the fair values of these investments were $173.7 and $158.9, which had been previously classified in level 2 at September 30, 2014. The guidance was required to be applied retrospectively, and accordingly, prior period amounts have been revised to conform with the current period presentation.

Cash Flows — During 2016, 2015, and 2014 we contributed cash of $14.6, $14.9, and $19.9, to our defined benefit retirement plans.  We expect to make estimated contributions of $89.5 in 2017.  See prior comments on our October 3, 2016 contribution.
We will evaluate business conditions and capital and equity market volatility to determine whether we will make any additional discretionary contributions.

Defined Contribution Plans — We sponsor a number of defined contribution plans.  Depending on the plan, we may make contributions up to 4% of an employee’s compensation and matching contributions up to 6% of compensation.  Company contributions generally vest over a period of zero to five years.  Expenses related to our defined contribution plans were $9.9, $9.1, and $8.7 for 2016, 2015, and 2014. See comments above regarding our retirement strategy change for our non-bargaining U.S. employees beginning on January 1, 2017.
 
Postretirement Healthcare Plan — The Company offers a domestic postretirement healthcare plan that provides healthcare benefits to eligible qualified retirees and their spouses.  The plan includes retiree cost-sharing provisions and generally extends retiree coverage for medical, prescription, and dental benefits beyond the COBRA continuation period to the date of Medicare eligibility.  We use a measurement date of September 30.  The net postretirement healthcare benefit cost for 2016, 2015, and 2014 was $0.3, $0.3, and $0.3.

We fund the postretirement healthcare plan as benefits are paid.  Current plan benefits are expected to require net Company contributions for retirees of $0.8 per year for the foreseeable future.

At September 30, 2016, we had $7.2 of deferred tax assets related to U.S. federal and state net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards, which will begin to expire in 2017, and $33.4 of deferred tax assets related to foreign net operating loss carryforwards, which will begin to expire in 2017. Deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2016, were reduced by a valuation allowance of $5.5 relating to foreign net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credit carryforwards.  At September 30, 2016 and 2015, we had $16.6 and $14.6 of current income tax payable classified as other current liabilities on our balance sheets.
 
We establish a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets when it is determined that the amount of expected future taxable income is not likely to support the use of the deduction or credit.
 
As of September 30, 2016 and 2015, U.S. federal and state income taxes have not been provided on accumulated undistributed earnings of substantially all our foreign subsidiaries, as these earnings were considered permanently reinvested.  The total permanently reinvested earnings were $172.7 and $129.4 for 2016 and 2015.  These amounts represent book earnings translated at historical rates. It is not practicable to estimate the tax liabilities that would be incurred upon full repatriation of undistributed earnings due to foreign tax credit limitation uncertainty and uncertainty on applicable withholding tax rate on certain foreign to foreign distributions.

The gross unrecognized tax benefit included $7.7 and $7.8 at September 30, 2016 and 2015, which, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate in future periods.
 
We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.  During 2016 and 2015, we recognized $0.7 and $0.2 in additional interest and penalties.  Excluded from the reconciliation were $1.3 and $0.9 of accrued interest and penalties at September 30, 2016 and 2015.
 
We operate in multiple income tax jurisdictions both inside and outside the U.S. and are currently under examination in various federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions. Specifically, we are currently under examination in the U.S. for 2015 and under examination in Germany for 2009 through 2013. In addition, there are other ongoing audits in various stages of completion in several state and foreign jurisdictions.
 
It is possible that the liability associated with the unrecognized tax benefits will increase or decrease within the next 12 months.  These changes may be the result of ongoing audits or the expiration of statutes of limitations and could range up to $1.0 based on current estimates.  Audit outcomes and the timing of audit settlements are subject to significant uncertainty.  Although we believe that adequate provision has been made for such issues, it is possible that their ultimate resolution could affect our earnings.  Conversely, if these issues are resolved favorably in the future, the related provision would be reduced and yield a positive impact on earnings.  We do not expect that the outcome of these audits will significantly impact the financial statements.

Share-Based Compensation
 
We have share-based compensation plans under which 12,685,436 shares are registered.  As of September 30, 2016, 3,504,376 shares were outstanding under these plans and 4,759,805 shares had been issued, leaving 4,421,255 shares available for future issuance.  Our primary plan, the Hillenbrand, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan, provides for long-term performance compensation for key employees and members of the Board of Directors.  Under the Stock Incentive Plan, a variety of discretionary awards for employees and non-employee directors are authorized, including incentive or non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and bonus stock.  In addition, our Executive Deferred Compensation Program and our Board of Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan allow for voluntary deferrals of compensation and Directors’ fees into restricted stock units. These programs are administered by the Board of Directors and its Compensation and Management Development Committee.

The Company realized current tax benefits of $5.6 from the exercise of stock options and the payment of stock awards during 2016.
 
Stock Options — The fair values of option grants are estimated on the date of grant using the binomial option-pricing model, which incorporates the possibility of early exercise of options into the valuation as well as our historical exercise and termination experience to determine the option value.  The grants are contingent upon continued employment and generally vest over a three-year period.  Option terms generally do not exceed 10 years.  The weighted-average fair value of options granted was $7.80, $8.38, and $6.97 per share for 2016, 2015, and 2014.  The following assumptions were used in the determination of fair value:

The risk-free interest rate is based upon observed interest rates appropriate for the term of the employee stock options.  The remaining assumptions require significant judgment utilizing historical information, peer data, and future expectations.  The dividend yield is based on the history of dividend payouts and the computation of expected volatility is based on historical stock volatility.  The expected life of employee stock options represents the weighted-average period the stock options are expected to remain outstanding and is a derived output of the binomial model.  The post-vesting termination rate and the exercise factor are based on the history of exercises and forfeitures for previous stock options.

As of September 30, 2016, there was $2.7 of unrecognized stock-based compensation associated with unvested stock options expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years.  This unrecognized compensation expense included a reduction for our estimate of potential forfeitures.  As of September 30, 2016, the average remaining life of the outstanding stock options was 6.0 years with an aggregate intrinsic value of $14.5.  As of September 30, 2016, the average remaining life of the exercisable stock options was 4.7 years with an aggregate intrinsic value of $13.9.  The total intrinsic value of options exercised by employees and directors during 2016, 2015, and 2014 was $7.5, $2.8, and $6.1.
 
Time-Based Stock Awards and Performance-Based Stock Awards —These awards are consistent with our compensation program’s guiding principles and are designed to (i) align management’s interests with those of shareholders, (ii) motivate and provide incentive to achieve superior results, (iii) maintain a significant portion of at-risk incentive compensation, (iv) delineate clear accountabilities, and (v) ensure competitive compensation.  We believe that our blend of compensation components provides the Company’s key employees with the appropriate incentives to create long-term value for shareholders while taking thoughtful and prudent risks to grow the value of the Company.  Our stock plan enables us to grant several types of restricted stock unit awards including time-based, performance-based contingent on the creation of shareholder value (“SV”), and performance-based based on a relative total shareholder return formula (“TSR”).

Our time-based stock awards provide an unconditional delivery of shares after a specified period of service. We record expense associated with time-based awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

The vesting of the SV awards is contingent upon the creation of shareholder value as measured by the cumulative cash returns and final period net operating profit after tax compared to the established hurdle rate over a three-year period and a corresponding service requirement.  The hurdle rate is a reflection of the weighted-average cost of capital and targeted capital structure.  The number of shares awarded is based upon the fair value of our stock at the date of grant adjusted for the attainment level at the end of the period.  Based on the extent to which the performance criteria are achieved, it is possible for none of the awards to vest or for a range up to the maximum to vest.  We record expense associated with the awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based upon an estimate of projected performance.  The actual performance of the Company is evaluated quarterly, and the expense is adjusted according to the new projections.  As a result, depending on the degree to which performance criteria are achieved or projections change, expenses related to the SV awards may become more volatile as we approach the final performance measurement date at the end of the three-year period.
 
The vesting of TSR awards is determined by comparing our total shareholder return during a three-year period to the respective total shareholder returns of companies in a designated performance peer group of 16 companies. Based on the Company’s relative ranking within the performance peer group, it is possible for none of the awards to vest or for a range up to the maximum to vest. The Monte-Carlo simulation method is used to determine fair value of TSR awards at the grant date.  The Monte-Carlo simulation model estimates the fair value of this market-based award based upon the expected term, risk-free interest rate, expected dividend yield, and expected volatility measure for the Company and its peer group. Compensation expense for the TSR awards is recognized over the vesting period regardless of whether the market conditions are expected to be achieved.

The total vest date fair value of shares held by Hillenbrand employees and directors which vested during 2016, 2015, and 2014 was $7.4, $7.1, and $5.8 (including dividends).

As of September 30, 2016, $1.1 and $5.5 of unrecognized stock-based compensation was associated with our unvested time-based and performance-based (including SV and TSR) stock awards.  The unrecognized amount of compensation related to the SV awards is based upon projected performance to date. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.6 and 1.5 years.  This unrecognized compensation expense included a reduction for an estimate of potential forfeitures.  As of September 30, 2016, the outstanding time-based stock awards and performance-based stock awards had an aggregate fair value of $2.7 and $23.8.  The weighted-average grant date fair value of time-based stock awards was $30.99 and $29.50 per share for 2015 and 2014.  The weighted-average grant date fair value of performance-based stock awards was $33.44 and $28.56 per share for 2015 and 2014.
 
Dividends payable in stock accrue on both time-based and SV awards during the performance period, and are subject to the same terms as the original grants.  Dividends do not accrue on TSR awards during the performance period. As of September 30, 2016, a total of 25,892 shares had accumulated on unvested stock awards due to dividend reinvestments and were excluded from the tables above.  The aggregate fair value of these shares at September 30, 2016 was $0.8.
 
Vested Deferred Stock — Past stock-based compensation programs allowed deferrals after vesting to be set up as deferred stock.  As of September 30, 2016, there were 337,837 fully vested deferred shares, which were excluded from the tables above.  The aggregate fair value of these shares at September 30, 2016 was $10.7.

Litigation
 
General — Like most companies, we are involved from time to time in claims, lawsuits, and government proceedings relating to our operations, including environmental, patent infringement, business practices, commercial transactions, product and general liability, workers’ compensation, auto liability, employment, and other matters.  The ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty.  An estimated loss from these contingencies is recognized when we believe it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated; however, it is difficult to measure the actual loss that might be incurred related to litigation.  If a loss is not considered probable and/or cannot be reasonably estimated, we are required to make a disclosure if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a significant loss may have been incurred.  Legal fees associated with claims and lawsuits are generally expensed as incurred.
 
Claims other than employment and employment-related matters have deductibles and self-funded retentions up to $0.5 per occurrence or per claim, depending upon the type of coverage and policy period.  Outside insurance companies and third-party claims administrators assist in establishing individual claim reserves, and an independent outside actuary provides estimates of ultimate projected losses, including incurred but not reported claims, which are used to establish reserves for losses.  Claim reserves for employment-related matters are established based upon advice from internal and external counsel and historical settlement information for claims and related fees when such amounts are considered probable of payment.
 
The recorded amounts represent our best estimate of the costs we will incur in relation to such exposures, but it is possible that actual costs will differ from those estimates.

In the spin-off from our former parent, we acquired warrants to purchase the common stock of Forethought Financial Group, Inc. (“Forethought”).  Forethought was acquired by a third-party during 2014.  In connection with that acquisition, these warrants were exercised for $6.2, resulting in a gain of $5.2.
 
We recognized a $2.5 gain related to the cancellation of a service agreement at Batesville during 2014.
 
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements
 
Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date.  The authoritative guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.  Observable inputs are from sources independent of the Company.  Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based upon the best information available in the circumstances.  The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The hierarchy is broken down into three levels:
 
Level 1:
Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2:
Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted prices) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3:
Inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability.
 
See the section below titled “Valuation Techniques” for further discussion of how Hillenbrand determines fair value for investments.

Valuation Techniques
 
The fair value of the investments in the rabbi trust were based on quoted prices in active markets.  The trust assets consist of participant-directed investments in publicly traded mutual funds.
We estimate the fair value of our foreign currency derivatives using industry accepted models.  The significant Level 2 inputs used in the valuation of our derivatives include spot rates, forward rates, and volatility.  These inputs were obtained from pricing services, broker quotes, and other sources.
The fair value of the 10-year, 5.5% fixed-rate senior unsecured notes was based on quoted prices in an active market.
The fair values of the revolving credit facility, term loan, and Series A Notes were estimated based on internally-developed models, using current market interest rate data for similar issues, as there is no active market for our revolving credit facilities, term loan or Series A Notes.
The private equity limited partnerships were excluded from the tables above. The carrying amount of these assets (included as a component of other assets within the balance sheet) was $7.6 and $8.3 at September 30, 2016 and 2015. The fair value of these equity method investments was not readily available.
Segment and Geographical Information
Segment and Geographical Information
Segment and Geographical Information
 
We conduct our operations through two reportable business segments: the Process Equipment Group and Batesville.  These reporting segments are determined on the basis of our management structure, and how we internally report financial information used to make operating decisions and evaluate results.
 
We record the direct costs of business operations to the reporting segments, including stock-based compensation, asset impairments, restructuring activities, and business acquisition costs.  Corporate provides management and administrative services to each reporting segment.  These services include treasury management, human resources, legal, business development, and other public company support functions such as internal audit, investor relations, financial reporting, and tax compliance.  With limited exception for certain professional services and back-office and technology costs, we do not allocate these types of corporate expenses to the reporting segments.

In January 2013, the Company’s subsidiary, Coperion Corporation, a Delaware corporation, was joined as a party to the Guaranty dated July 2012 (“Guaranty”), by certain subsidiaries of the Company (including Coperion Corporation, the “Guarantors”), which was entered into in connection with the Company’s revolving credit facility.  In accordance with the terms of the revolving credit facility, Coperion Corporation was required to join the Guaranty as a material domestic subsidiary of the Company following the acquisition of Coperion Capital GmbH.
 
In January 2013, the Company, the Guarantors, and U.S. Bank National Association (“Trustee”) entered into a supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Guarantors agreed to guarantee the obligations of the Company under its 5.50% Notes due 2020 issued pursuant to an Indenture entered into in July 2010, between the Company and the Trustee.  As such, certain 100% owned subsidiaries of Hillenbrand fully and unconditionally, jointly and severally, agreed to guarantee all of the indebtedness relating to our obligations under our 5.50% Notes due 2020.  The following are the condensed consolidating financial statements, including the guarantors, which present the statements of income, balance sheets, and cash flows of (i) the parent holding company, (ii) the guarantor subsidiaries, (iii) the non-guarantor subsidiaries, and (iv) eliminations necessary to present the information for Hillenbrand on a consolidated basis.

These costs related primarily to severance costs at the Process Equipment Group and Batesville as we continue to integrate and streamline the business operations within each segment, disposal of equipment at Batesville, and corporate compensation costs related to changes in the Company’s executive management team. At September 30, 2016, $1.5 of restructuring costs were accrued and expected to be paid in 2017.
Subsequent Events (Notes)

Subsequent Events

On November 3, 2016, Batesville announced the planned closure of its smaller wood casket manufacturing facility in Panola County, Mississippi. The planned closing results from changing consumer attitudes and preferences in the funeral industry over the past several decades, as consumers continue to choose cremation over burial at an increased rate and metal caskets more often than wood. In 2016, it is estimated that less than 50% of families in North America will choose burial for their loved one, a decline of almost 15 percent over the past decade. Although there are geographic differences, the majority of those will purchase a metal casket. The Panola plant is expected to close in March of 2017. As a result of this action, the Company expects restructuring and restructuring related charges of approximately $9 to $11 in 2017, primarily related to severance and asset write-downs.

(a)   Reflects the write-off of specific receivables against recorded reserves and other adjustments.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)
Basis of presentation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hillenbrand and its subsidiaries.  They also include two minor subsidiaries where the Company’s ownership percentage is less than 100%.  The portion of the business that is not owned by the Company is presented as noncontrolling interests within equity in the balance sheets.  Income attributable to the noncontrolling interests is separately reported within the statements of income.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. 
Use of estimates — We prepared the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”).  GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign currency translation — The financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates for operating results.  Unrealized translation gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in shareholders’ equity.  When a transaction is denominated in a currency other than the subsidiary’s functional currency, we recognize a transaction gain or loss in “other income (expense), net” when the transaction is settled.
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.  The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents are valued at cost, which approximates their fair value.
Trade receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and generally do not bear interest, unless they become past due.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is a best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses and collection risk in the existing accounts receivable portfolio.  The allowance for cash discounts and sales returns reserve are based upon historical experience and trends.  Account balances are charged against the allowance when we believe it is probable the receivable will not be recovered.   We generally hold trade accounts receivable until they are collected.
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market.  Inventory costs are determined by the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method for approximately 32% and 28% of inventories at September 30, 2016 and 2015.  Costs of remaining inventories have been determined principally by the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) and average cost methods.
Property, plant, and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using principally the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of three to 50 years for buildings and improvements and three to 25 years for machinery and equipment. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Upon disposal or retirement, the cost and accumulated depreciation of assets are eliminated. Any gain or loss is reflected in the Company’s income from operations. We review these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated future undiscounted cash flows relating to the asset are less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its fair value.
Intangible assets are stated at the lower of cost or fair value.  With the exception of certain trade names, intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from three to 21 years, representing the period over which we expect to receive future economic benefits from these assets.  We assess the carrying value of trade names annually, or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate there may be impairment.
Goodwill is not amortized, but is subject to annual impairment tests.  Goodwill has been assigned to reporting units.  We assess the carrying value of goodwill annually, or more often if events or changes in circumstances indicate there may be impairment.  Impairment testing is performed at a reporting unit level.
Investments — Our investment portfolio consists of investments in private equity limited partnerships.  The carrying value of the portfolio was $7.6 and $8.3 at September 30, 2016 and 2015 and is included in other current assets and other assets on the balance sheets.  We use the equity method of accounting for substantially all private equity limited partnerships, with earnings or losses reported in “other income (expense), net” in the income statements.  Certain of these investments require commitments by us to potentially provide additional funding of up to $1.0.  The timing of funding is uncertain, but is expected to occur over the next three to five years.  We regularly evaluate all investments for possible impairment.
Environmental liabilities — Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations which do not contribute to current or future revenue generation are expensed.  A reserve is established when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.  These reserves are determined without consideration of possible loss recoveries.  Based on consultations with an environmental engineer, the range of liability is estimated based on current interpretations of environmental laws and regulations.  A determination is made of the specific measures that are believed to be required to remediate the site, the estimated total cost to carry out the remediation plan, and the periods in which we will make payments toward the remediation plan.  We do not make an estimate of inflation for environmental matters because the number of sites is small, the magnitude of costs to execute remediation plans is not significant, and the estimated time frames to remediate sites are not believed to be lengthy.
 
Specific costs included in environmental expense and reserves include site assessment, remediation plan development, clean-up costs, post-remediation expenditures, monitoring, fines, penalties, and legal fees.  The amount reserved represents the expected undiscounted future cash outflows associated with such plans and actions and is not significant to Hillenbrand.
Self-insurance — We are self-funded up to certain limits for product and general liability, workers compensation, and auto liability insurance programs, as well as certain employee health benefits including medical, drug, and dental.  These policies have deductibles and self-funded retentions up to $0.5 per occurrence, depending upon the type of coverage and policy period.  Our policy is to estimate reserves based upon a number of factors, including known claims, estimated incurred but not reported claims, and outside actuarial analysis.  The outside actuarial analysis is based on historical information along with certain assumptions about future events.  These reserves are classified as other current and other long-term liabilities within the balance sheets.
Treasury stock consists of our common shares that have been issued but subsequently reacquired.  We account for treasury stock purchases under the cost method.  When these shares are reissued, we use an average-cost method to determine cost.  Proceeds in excess of cost are credited to additional paid-in capital.
Preferred stock — The Company has authorized 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock (no par value), of which no shares were issued at September 30, 2016 and 2015.
Accumulated other comprehensive loss included all changes in Hillenbrand shareholders’ equity during a period except those that resulted from investments by or distributions to our shareholders.
Revenue recognition — Net revenue includes gross revenue less sales discounts, customer rebates, sales incentives, and product returns, all of which require us to make estimates for the portion of these allowances that have yet to be credited or paid to our customers.  We estimate these allowances based upon historical rates and projections of customer purchases toward contractual rebate thresholds.
 
A portion of Hillenbrand’s revenue is derived from long-term manufacturing contracts.  The majority of this revenue is recognized based on the percentage-of-completion method.  Under this method, revenue is recognized based upon the costs incurred to date as compared to the total estimated project costs.  Approximately 24%, 25%, and 25% of Hillenbrand’s revenue was attributable to these long-term manufacturing contracts for 2016, 2015, and 2014.
 
Accounting for these contracts involves management judgment in estimating total contract revenue and cost.  Contract revenues are largely determined by negotiated contract prices and quantities, modified by our assumptions regarding contract options, change orders, and incentive and award provisions associated with technical performance clauses.  Contract costs are incurred over longer periods of time and, accordingly, the estimation of these costs requires management judgment.  Cost estimates are largely based on negotiated or estimated purchase contract terms, historical performance trends, and other economic projections.  Significant factors that influence these estimates include inflationary trends, technical and schedule risk, internal and subcontractor performance trends, business volume assumptions, asset utilization, and anticipated labor agreements.  Revenue and cost estimates are regularly monitored and revised based on changes in circumstances.  Anticipated losses on long-term contracts are recognized immediately when such losses become evident.  We maintain financial controls over the customer qualification, contract pricing, and estimation processes to reduce the risk of contract losses.
 
Revenue for components, most replacement parts, and service is recognized when title and risk of loss passes to the customer.
Cost of goods sold consists primarily of purchased material costs, fixed manufacturing expense, variable direct labor, and overhead costs.  It also includes costs associated with the distribution and delivery of products.
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred as a component of operating expenses and were $12.6, $12.7, and $14.4 for 2016, 2015, and 2014.
Warranty costs — We provide for the estimated warranty cost of a product at the time revenue is recognized.  Warranty expense is accrued based upon historical information and may also include specific provisions for known conditions.  Warranty obligations are affected by actual product performance and by material usage and service costs incurred in making product corrections.  Our warranty provision takes into account the best estimate of amounts necessary to settle future and existing claims on products sold.  The Process Equipment Group generally offers a one to two-year warranty on a majority of its products.  It engages in extensive product quality programs and processes in an effort to minimize warranty obligations, including active monitoring and evaluation of the quality of component suppliers.
Income taxes — We establish deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.  The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  The majority of the cash at our foreign subsidiaries represents earnings considered to be permanently reinvested for which deferred taxes have not been provided as we do not intend, nor do we foresee a need, to repatriate these funds.
 
We have a variety of deferred income tax assets in numerous tax jurisdictions.  The recoverability of these deferred income tax assets is assessed periodically and valuation allowances are recognized if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized.  When performing this assessment, we consider future taxable income, the reversal of existing temporary differences, and tax planning strategies.  We account for accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
Derivative financial instruments — The Company has hedging programs in place to manage its currency exposures.  The objectives of our hedging programs are to mitigate exposures in gross margin and non-functional-currency-denominated assets and liabilities.   Under these programs, we use derivative financial instruments to manage the economic impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates.  These include foreign currency exchange forward contracts, which generally have terms from one to 24 months.   

The Company has interest rate swaps in place to manage or hedge the risks associated with our indebtedness and interest payments. Our objectives in using interest rate swaps are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements.

We require that hedging derivative instruments be highly effective in reducing the risk exposure that they are designated to hedge. As a result, there was no significant ineffectiveness from any of our derivative activities during the period. We formally designate any instrument that meets these hedging criteria as a hedge.

The aggregate notional amount of all derivative instruments was $208.3 and $136.7 at September 30, 2016 and 2015.

We measure all derivative instruments at fair value and report them on our balance sheets as assets or liabilities.  Derivative instruments designated as hedges for customer orders or intercompany purchases have an offsetting tax-adjusted amount in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss).  Derivative instruments designated to hedge foreign currency exposures within our balance sheet have an offsetting amount recorded in “Other income (expense), net”.  The carrying value of all of these contracts at fair value resulted in assets of $1.4 and $1.1 (included in Other current assets) and liabilities of $3.3 and $5.8 (included in Other current liabilities) at September 30, 2016 and 2015.  See Note 13 for additional information on the fair value of our derivative instruments.
 
Changes in the fair value of derivatives are accounted for depending on the intended use of the derivative, designation of the hedging relationship, and whether or not the criteria to apply hedge accounting has been satisfied.  Gains and losses on derivative instruments reported in accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss) are subsequently included in earnings in the periods in which earnings are affected by the hedged item.  The amounts recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and subsequently through earnings were not significant from 2014 through 2016.  Net gains and losses on all derivative instruments were substantially offset by foreign exchange effects on the hedged items.
 
The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for purposes of speculation.
Business acquisitions and related business acquisition and integration costs — Assets and liabilities associated with business acquisitions are recorded at fair value, using the acquisition method of accounting.  We allocate the purchase price of acquisitions based upon the fair value of each component, which may be derived from observable or unobservable inputs and assumptions.  We may utilize third-party valuation specialists to assist us in this allocation.  Initial purchase price allocations are preliminary and subject to revision within the measurement period, generally not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition.
 
Business acquisition and integration costs are expensed as incurred, and are reported as a component of cost of goods sold, operating expenses, interest expense, and “other income (expense), net,” depending on the nature of the cost.  We define these costs to include finder’s fees, advisory, legal, accounting, valuation, and other professional or consulting fees, as well as travel associated with the evaluation and effort to acquire specific businesses.  Business acquisition and integration costs also include costs associated with acquisition tax planning, retention bonuses, and related integration costs.  These costs exclude the ongoing expenses of our business development department.
Restructuring costs may occur when we take action to exit or significantly curtail a part of our operations or change the deployment of assets or personnel.  A restructuring charge can consist of an impairment or accelerated depreciation of effected assets, severance costs associated with reductions to the workforce, costs to terminate an operating lease or contract, and charges for legal obligations for which no future benefit will be derived.
Recently adopted accounting standards — In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity, which includes amendments that change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations.  Under ASU 2014-8, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations.  ASU 2014-8 became effective and was adopted for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2015.  The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. The Company elected to early adopt this standard for our fiscal year 2016. The Company applied this standard prospectively and thus prior periods have not been adjusted.
The impact of the adoption resulted in the following:
The Company recorded a tax benefit of $2.4 million within the provision for income taxes for the year ended September 30, 2016, related to the excess tax benefit on stock options, time-based stock awards, and performance-based stock awards. Prior to adoption, this amount would have been recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. This change could create volatility in the Company’s effective tax rate going forward. We elected to present the cumulative excess tax benefit of $2.4 entirely in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 because the impact of recording the benefit to each respective quarter was not significant.
The Company elected not to change our policy on accounting for forfeitures and continued to estimate the total number of awards for which the requisite service period will not be rendered.
The Company no longer reclassifies the excess tax benefit from operating activities to financing activities in the statement of cash flows.
The Company excluded the excess tax benefits from the assumed proceeds available to repurchase shares in the computation of our diluted earnings per share for the year ended September 30, 2016. This increased our diluted weighted average common shares outstanding by approximately 20,000 shares for the year ended September 30, 2016.
Recently issued accounting standards — In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The FASB has also issued several updates to ASU 2014-09. The new standard supersedes U.S. GAAP guidance on revenue recognition and requires the use of more estimates and judgments than the present standards. It also requires significant disclosures sufficient to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, and allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption, with early adoption permitted on October 1, 2017. We have not yet selected a transition method, and we are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
 
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period.  ASU 2014-12 states that a performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period should be accounted for as a performance condition.  ASU 2014-12 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted.  We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-12 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, Income Statement—Extraordinary and Unusual Items. ASU 2015-01 eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-01 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, Consolidation: Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The new standard amends the consolidation guidance in ASC 810 and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required under current generally accepted accounting principles. ASU 2015-02 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-02 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest. ASU 2015-03 simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs. The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-15, Interest - Imputation of Interest: Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements. This standard permits an entity to defer and present debt issuance costs related to line-of-credit arrangements as an asset and to subsequently amortize the deferred debt issuance costs ratably over the term of the line-of-credit arrangement. These new standards do not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs. ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 and ASU 2015-15 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software. ASU 2015-05 helps entities evaluate the accounting for fees paid by a customer in a cloud computing arrangement by providing guidance as to whether an arrangement includes the sale or license of software. ASU 2015-05 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-05 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330). Under current FASB standards, an entity is required to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. ASU 2015-11 requires an entity to measure inventory within the scope of this update at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using last-in, first-out (LIFO) or the retail inventory method. ASU 2015-11 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-11 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations. ASU 2015-16 simplifies the accounting for adjustments made to provisional amounts. The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that the acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amount is determined. The acquirer is also required to record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date.  In addition, an entity is required to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes to the financial statements the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. ASU 2015-16 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-16 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes. ASU 2015-17 requires that deferred income tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position in order to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. ASU 2015-17 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We expect that ASU 2015-17 will have a financial statement presentation impact only, as all deferred income tax assets and liabilities will be classified as noncurrent on the consolidated balance sheet.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a right of use asset and related lease liability for leases that have lease terms of more than twelve months.  For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance, with the classifications based on criteria that are similar to those applied under the current lease guidance, without the explicit bright lines.  ASU 2016-02 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2016-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-06, Derivatives and Hedging: Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments. ASU 2016-06 clarifies the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts. An entity performing the assessment under the amendment is required to assess the embedded call (put) options solely in accordance with the four-step decision sequence. ASU 2016-06 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2016-06 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
