Annual Report 2014
The Things That Matter to People

Parker continues to push the bounds of what is possible by 
collaborating with researchers to develop innovations that can have  
a meaningful impact on people’s lives.

The innovative filtration system shown on the cover of this report 
utilizes several Parker technologies and represents a promising 
advancement in fighting cancer. The device supports a treatment 
designed to enhance the body’s ability to use its own immune system 
to attack cancer cells. This treatment could provide a nontoxic 
alternative to improve the lives of both early and late-stage  
cancer patients.

The examples throughout this report showcase what can be done 
when we apply our technology and engineering expertise to help solve 
some of the world’s greatest engineering challenges. Today, Parker is 
uniquely positioned to partner on innovations that matter to people 
by advancing health care and improving the quality of life.

Letter to Shareholders

Don E. Washkewicz, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President

The technologies featured in this year’s annual report 
reflect how far Parker has come since implementing 
the Win Strategy in 2001. Back then it would have 
been difficult for us to imagine applications of our 
technology that we can envision today, such as 
those that advance health care, with the potential to 
have a profound impact on our lives. By following a 
disciplined innovation process, efficiently investing 
our resources, and following a clear direction to 
develop new to the world, new to the market products, 
we have established innovation as a key element of 
our growth strategy.  

The examples we share here are a window into a 
bright future - products on the cutting edge doing 
things many said could not be done. They represent 
a glimpse of how our technology and engineering 
expertise can be used to solve some of the world’s 
greatest engineering challenges. On the cover, for 
example, is the latest design of an innovative filtration 
system that is being developed for the European 

market with the objective of assisting the body’s 
own immune system in overcoming cancer cell 
defenses. When commercialized, the system would 
have the potential to help patients with early and 
late-stage cancer. Today, Parker is positioned to use 
its technology and knowledge to assist world-class 
doctors in the surgical suite, therapists in the clinic 
and researchers in the lab to advance patient care and 
improve quality of life. 

Strong Performance in a Transitional Year
Fiscal year 2014 was a transitional year for Parker 
as we began a series of significant restructuring 
activities affecting many of our businesses and 
locations. These decisions were not made easily given 
the impact on our employees, but were necessary 
to align our operations to reflect the reality of 
challenging global economic conditions.

A keen focus on margin expansion is expected to 
generate meaningful improvements in the next 
several years, and we are targeting a record segment 
operating margin of greater than 15% in fiscal 
year 2015.  

This fiscal year, many of our businesses completed 
actions, particularly in Europe, that allowed us to 
optimize our manufacturing operations and better 
serve our customers. Our team managed a complex 
set of activities throughout the fiscal year that we 
expect will deliver sustainable margin improvement 
for our business.

Despite the focus and attention these actions 
required, and only moderate improvement in the 
global macroeconomic environment, Parker delivered 
consistent financial performance throughout fiscal 
year 2014. 

  Total net sales were a record at $13.2 billion and 
represented a 1.5% increase over the prior year. When 
adjusted for a joint venture agreement completed 
during the year, sales increased 2.5%. Parker recorded 
positive order growth in every quarter of fiscal year 
2014.

  Total segment operating margins for fiscal year 
2014 were 13.5% as reported, or 14.3% adjusted for 
restructuring expenses. Performance was led by the 
North American Industrial business which reported 
margins of 16.6%.

  Net income was $1.0 billion, or $6.87 per diluted 
share, an increase of 10% compared with the prior 
year. Adjusted earnings per diluted share were $6.94, 

excluding the impact of restructuring expenses, a 
gain on the joint venture agreement with GE Aviation 
and charges associated with asset write downs. 

  Cash flow from operations, excluding a $75 million 
discretionary pension contribution, was $1.5 billion 
or 11.1% of sales. Coinciding with the launch of our 
Win Strategy, this represents the 13th consecutive 
fiscal year that Parker has generated operating cash 
greater than 10% of sales before discretionary pension 
contributions. 

  Our strong cash flow and balance sheet gave us 
the flexibility to invest in our business while also 
increasing shareholder returns through dividends 
and share repurchases. We increased the quarterly 
dividend by 7% during the fiscal year, which extends 
our long-standing record of increasing dividends 
to 58 consecutive fiscal years. We also repurchased 
$200 million worth of Parker stock, reaffirming our 
confidence in Parker as a long-term investment. 

This year, Parker celebrated the 50-year anniversary 
of its initial public offering on the New York Stock 
Exchange. Marking this occasion allows us to reflect 
on our progress over that time. As our results in fiscal 
year 2014 highlight, today we are better equipped 
than before to build on our position as a premier 
diversified industrial company and to advance our 
role as a technology leader. 

Pursuing Aggressive Growth Targets 
Our future aspirations remain centered on the 
diligent execution of the Win Strategy. While it has 
served us remarkably well over a sustained period 
of growth and transformation, there is still room 
for us to improve. During fiscal year 2014 we began 
formally certifying our operations, through the Win 
Certification Program, based on execution of the Win 
Strategy. This is an indication of how embedded the 
Win Strategy has become in our daily operations. 
However, our strategy is best measured by the 
financial results it produces, and we remain focused 
on pursuing 15% total segment operating margins 
over the economic cycle and an aggressive 5-year 
compound annual sales growth goal of 10%, including 
acquisitions.

Our aerospace business has secured more than $20 
billion in contract wins across a broad range of new 
aircraft platforms in the past five years. Engineering 
and testing of these new systems to support 
our customers has increased our research and 
development investment. As these aircraft enter into 
service in the coming years, we expect to see a return

on that investment in the form of increased sales, 
normalized research and development expenses and 
improved segment operating margins.  

An increased focus on developing systems and 
innovations that add significant customer value are 
also expected to positively impact segment operating 
margins. By their nature, these opportunities 
typically generate higher revenue. Our goal is to have 
new products and systems make up an increasingly 
greater percentage of our revenue over time.   

Our 5-year compound annual sales growth target of 
10% will continue to center on strategic acquisitions, 
innovation, expanding our distribution network and 
growth in emerging markets.  

Acquisitions are expected to deliver 4% sales 
growth annually. We actively pursued a number of 
companies in fiscal year 2014 and completed two 
small transactions. We also acquired the intellectual 
property and licenses for electroactive polymer 
technology from Bayer MaterialScience LLC, and 
its Artificial Muscle Incorporated business unit. 
This technology is expected to allow us to research 
advanced materials in developing smart sensors 
and actuators for use in medical devices, remote 
monitoring and industrial systems.

Several areas of innovation hold great promise for 
the future. For example, our collaboration with 
Cleveland Clinic Innovations highlights our ability 
to extend innovation outside of our organization to 
develop potential new medical advancements. We 
have brought together our engineering and new 
product development expertise with the Cleveland 
Clinic’s clinical and research knowledge and unique 
understanding of the need for innovative medical 
solutions. Together, we have developed an extensive 
pipeline of projects to address the challenges in 
health care. Several of these innovations have been 
submitted for regulatory approval in the United 
States.

In fiscal year 2014, we introduced the improved, 
commercial version of Indego®, a powered lower limb 
orthotic device also referred to as an exoskeleton, 
which will allow people with mobility impairments to 
have a whole new level of independence. The device, 
which is being tested in collaboration with five of the 
top 10 leading rehabilitation centers in the United 
States, is expected to be submitted for regulatory 
approval in Europe and the United States in 2015. 

Previously introduced Parker innovations are 
already gaining momentum in the market. The fleet 
of refuse trucks equipped with Parker’s RunWise 

Advanced Series Hybrid Drive System has surpassed 
one million miles of operation in calendar year 2014 
and continues to achieve positive fuel savings and 
emissions reductions for our customers. 

Parker’s strong distribution channel remains an 
important and competitively distinct element of 
how we execute our growth strategy. Serving the 
maintenance, repair and overhaul market for motion 
and control technologies, we continue to expand our 
global network to more than 13,000 outlets. In this 
past fiscal year, we opened our 1,000th ParkerStore 
in the Asia Pacific region, marking the rapid pace 
of expansion there. We now boast more than 2,300 
industrial retail stores globally. We continue to 
support our strong distribution channel as an 
important conduit to our customers, representing 
approximately half of our industrial sales.

Growth in emerging markets remains a cornerstone 
of our future plans. Despite near-term challenges, the 
fundamental drivers of these markets are population 
growth and the associated infrastructure expansion, 
which make them an attractive long-term investment. 
We anticipate nominal industrial growth of close to 
10% per year over the next five years in India, China, 
ASEAN countries and Latin America. Parker has 
continued to expand its presence in these markets 
by investing tens of millions of dollars each year in 
manufacturing capacity that supports our customers 
with local production in the countries we serve.

While operating margins were the primary focus 
of our actions in fiscal year 2014, we continued to 
advance our long-term position. I feel very confident 
about Parker’s ability to deliver on our goals.

Through the Win Strategy, we have implemented a disciplined approach to 
managing our business that has driven our success.

Parker’s senior leaders and the Board of Directors celebrated 50 years of growth and innovation since the company’s initial public offering at the New York 
Stock Exchange. Parker’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President, Don Washkewicz rang The Closing Bell® on April 24, 2014.

Making a Meaningful Contribution
As we enter our 14th year of executing the Win 
Strategy, I am reminded of how far we have come. It 
has not always been an easy path, and we have had 
to adapt along the way, including during the Great 
Recession of 2008 and 2009, as well as during the 
transitional year in fiscal year 2014. Throughout this 
time, I have been extremely appreciative of our ability 
to stay true to the Win Strategy. I am inspired by the 
tenacity and focus of Parker people, and by their 
ability to deliver premier customer service, innovative 
solutions and achieve sound financial performance 
through a challenging global environment.   

Guided by a sound strategy that keeps us focused on 
the fundamentals and drives consistent performance 
and supported by our global workforce operating in 
50 countries, I have never been more confident in our 
future.   

We are positioned not only to meet the ongoing needs 
of our customers, but also to drive increasing returns 
for shareholders. Perhaps even more importantly, 
Parker today has the opportunity to make a more 
meaningful contribution to human life - a legacy any 
company would be proud of and one that inspires all 
of us to make the world a better place to live. 

At more than 57,000 strong, our employees represent 
the foundation of our success and I thank them 
for their commitment. To support their health and 
well-being, this year we initiated a unique and 
comprehensive wellness strategy that focuses on 
prevention and effective treatment tools. This is 
one of many ways we support our global team in 
achieving their goals and presents greater choice to 
our employees in managing their health and leading 
productive lives both at work and at home. 

Sincerely,

Don E. Washkewicz, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President

Despite remarkable advancements in medical 
science and technology, each year millions 
of people lose their fight against cancer, 
making the need for effective cancer 
treatment one of the most critical 
challenges in health care.  

Utilizing its knowledge and 
experience across several 
core technologies, Parker 
is collaborating with a 
pioneering customer to 
develop an innovative 
filtration system* designed 
to help cancer patients in a 
unique way.

A new product for the European 
market, the filtration system 
utilizes Parker’s pump and 
fluid control technology 
and is being designed to 
enable a treatment called 
Immunopheresis, which helps 
the body’s own immune system 
to overcome cancer cell defenses.

The objective of the treatment is to 
process the patients’ blood to remove 
inhibitors which block the body’s 
immune system from attacking 
cancer cells.

The ambition of the team developing 
the system is to establish an 
approach that is nontoxic and 
potentially has fewer side 
effects than current treatments 
such as chemotherapy 
and radiation. 

Development and testing of the 
filtration system is underway. When 
commercialized, it could help improve 
the lives of both early and late-stage 
cancer patients. By applying its 
broad range of technologies, 
decades of engineering 
expertise and advanced 
manufacturing capabilities, 
Parker is playing a role in 
addressing this significant 
health care challenge.

Parker is working with 
medical and industry experts 
to develop and test the system, 
and hopes that these efforts 
will result in a successful 
submission to the European 
Union (EU) regulatory 
authorities and ultimately 
result in regulatory approval 
or clearance to market and 
sell the product in Germany 
and other countries. 
Subsequent to a successful 
launch, it is anticipated that 
further approvals may be sought 
for the treatment around the world.

In the near term, Parker does not 
anticipate seeking U.S. Food and Drug 
Administration (FDA) approval or 
clearance for the filtration system and, 
therefore, the product will not be 
available at this time for sale 
in the United States.

In an effort to advance health care 
technologies that improve patient treatment 
options, Parker is collaborating with 
Cleveland Clinic Innovations, the business 
development arm of the Cleveland Clinic 
hospital system, to develop new medical 
devices. This relationship has inspired a 
full pipeline of innovative products, some 
of which may soon be 
available on the 
market and others 
that are still in 
the research and 
development stages. 

One product 
currently in the 
feasibility phase 
of manufacturing, 
efficacy and patient 
safety studies is a 
catheter system 
called Cardioscope.* 
Through a high- 
definition color 
camera, the objective 
of this device is to 
capture images of the 
inside of a beating 
heart, allowing physicians to provide more 
precise diagnosis and better evaluation of 
surgical procedures.

Current cardiac imaging equipment 
often requires patients to consume dye in 
preparation for procedures that require 
exposure to radiation.

With the Cardioscope, a window of visibility 
within the heart is created through the 
combination of light transmitting polymers, 
a miniature high-definition camera and 
a proprietary flow control device that 
concentrates the flow of a clear fluid to 
produce an optically clear field of vision 
within the heart. 

In addition to 
improved diagnosis 
and evaluation, the 
Cardioscope also is 
expected to allow  
physicians to access 
the heart by entering 
the body through 
the leg rather than 
the neck, reducing 
patient risk and 
discomfort.

The miniaturization 
of cameras, light 
sources and 
components has 
facilitated the 
development of 
the Cardioscope. 
Coupled with feedback from cardiologists, 
Parker’s expertise in extrusion, thermoplastic 
elastomers, fittings design and electrical 
system protection in harsh environments has 
contributed to this advanced imaging system 
that carries the potential to expand medical 
knowledge and improve patient care.

While the simple action 
of rising from a seat 
and walking across a 
room may not strike 
many as a significant 
accomplishment, the 
restoration of personal 
mobility holds great promise 
to provide a new level of 
freedom and independence to 
those confined to a wheelchair. 

Developed for the millions of 
people around the world who 
have suffered spinal cord injuries, 
stroke, multiple sclerosis or other 
mobility-restricting conditions, 
Parker has recently introduced the 
commercial version of Indego.* 
Occasionally referred to as an 
exoskeleton, Indego is a powered 
lower limb orthotic device 
that would enable clinicians 
to conduct over-ground gait 
training during rehabilitation, 
and potentially allow mobility-
impaired individuals to stand 
and walk in daily use. 

Compared to the original 
prototype of the device released 
in 2012, the commercial version 
of Indego is slimmer, and is 
designed in a way that would 

be easier for the user and clinician 
to set up, remove and transport. 

The device utilizes no-look 
connections, turn-to-fit strapping 
and modular segments, enabling 
users to put on and take off the device 
quickly and without assistance.

Indego is powered by a long-lasting, 
quick-change rechargeable battery 
that allows for extended use 
throughout the day.

The device is wirelessly 
paired with the new Indego 
software app, which serves 
as a useful rehabilitation tool 
by providing control over gait 
training parameters such as 
stride length and pace, and 
records performance data for 
each patient. This functionality 
eliminates the need for 
tethered controls.

Parker is working to secure FDA 
approval in the United States 
and CE marking for Indego in 
Europe. Pending regulatory 
approvals, Parker is targeting the 
commercial launch of Indego 
in Europe in early 2015 and in 
the United States in late 2015.

Parker is researching the impact of applying 
advanced materials to its proven condition 
monitoring solutions, aiming to create sensors 
that could provide physicians a streaming, 
detailed analysis of a patient’s health.

Parker’s dynamic sensors currently provide 
consistent and accurate readings for pressure, 
humidity and 
temperature, vital 
information which 
enables users to 
evaluate the status of 
medical equipment 
and, ultimately, 
ensure optimal 
performance and 
minimize downtime. 

The sensors are 
used throughout 
hospitals, research 
and development 
laboratories and other 
medical facilities. 
They are wireless, 
battery-powered 
and designed for fast 
installation without tools. Their advanced 
technology allows for extended operation 
between battery replacements.

To further enhance the capabilities of the 
sensors and improve performance and 

efficiency, Parker is applying its advanced 
material development capabilities, including 
the use of electroactive polymers.

Engineered specifically for health care 
applications, these smart sensors could be 
implanted into wristbands, chest straps or 
other wearable devices and used to measure 
a patient’s heart rate, 
breathing patterns, 
temperature or other 
metrics related to 
their state of health. 

Using low-power 
sensors paired to 
an intuitive user 
interface via wireless 
technology, physicians 
could continuously 
monitor a patient’s 
health in remarkable 
detail, utilizing 
trending biometrics 
data to develop a 
greater understanding 
of their condition and 
potentially prevent 
threatening complications. 

By expanding the bounds of smart sensor 
technology, Parker intends to help shape the 
future of digital health and enable physicians 
to significantly improve patient care.

Net Assets/Sales

Return on Net Assets (RONA) is a common metric used throughout the company, providing 
a standard for how efficiently and productively each operating unit employs the average dollar 
invested in assets. To reach Parker's internally established benchmark, the RONA Goal line, 
operations must successfully balance investments in assets with profitable sales growth. 
Since the launch of the Win Strategy, Parker has steadily moved toward the goal, reaching 
the line in 2005 and eclipsing it in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2011 and 2012. The impact of the global 
recession in 2009 and 2010 and challenging macroeconomic conditions in 2013 pushed this 
performance measure below the line. 2014 was a transitional year, causing Parker to remain 
below the line.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

Overview

The Company is a leading worldwide diversified manufacturer of motion 
and control technologies and systems, providing precision engineered 
solutions for a wide variety of mobile, industrial and aerospace markets.

The Company’s order rates provide a near-term perspective of the 
Company’s outlook particularly when viewed in the context of prior and 
future order rates. The Company publishes its order rates on a quarterly 
basis. The lead time between the time an order is received and revenue 
is realized generally ranges from one day to 12 weeks for mobile and 
industrial orders and from one day to 18 months for aerospace orders. 
The Company believes the leading economic indicators of these markets 
that have a correlation to the Company’s future order rates are as 
follows:

•   Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) on manufacturing activity  
  specific to regions around the world with respect to most mobile  
  and industrial markets;

•   Global aircraft miles flown and global revenue passenger miles  
  for commercial aerospace markets and Department of Defense  
  spending for military aerospace markets; and

•   Housing starts with respect to the North American residential  
  air conditioning market and certain mobile construction markets. 

A PMI above 50 indicates that the manufacturing activity specific to a 
region of the world in the mobile and industrial markets is expanding.  
A PMI below 50 indicates the opposite. Recent PMI levels for some 
regions around the world were as follows:

June 30, 2014 

March 31, 2014 

June 30, 2013

United States  
Eurozone countries  
China  
Brazil  

55.3  
51.8  
50.7

53.7  
53.0  
48.0  
50.6  

50.9
48.8
48.2
50.4

Global aircraft miles flown increased six percent from the comparable 
2013 level and global revenue passenger miles increased seven percent 
from the comparable 2013 level. The Company anticipates that U.S. 
Department of Defense spending with regards to appropriations, and 
operations and maintenance for the U.S. Government’s fiscal year 2015 
will increase by approximately one percent from the comparable fiscal 
2014 level.

Housing starts in June 2014 were approximately eight percent higher 
than housing starts in June 2013 and were approximately six percent 
lower than housing starts in March 2014.

The Company has remained focused on maintaining its financial 
strength by adjusting its cost structure to reflect changing demand 
levels, maintaining a strong balance sheet and managing its cash. The 
Company continues to generate substantial cash flows from operations, 
has controlled capital spending and has proactively managed working 
capital. The Company has been able to borrow needed funds at 
affordable interest rates and had a debt to debt-shareholders’ equity 
ratio of 25.9 percent at June 30, 2014 compared to 28.6 percent  
at March 31, 2014 and 33.0 percent at June 30, 2013. Net of cash  
and cash equivalents and marketable securities, the debt to debt-
shareholders’ equity ratio was 2.0 percent at June 30, 2014 compared 
to 7.1 percent at March 31, 2014 and 15.4 percent at June 30, 2013.

The Company believes many opportunities for growth are available.  
The Company intends to focus primarily on business opportunities in 
the areas of energy, water, food, environment, defense, life sciences, 
infrastructure and transportation.

The Company believes it can meet its strategic objectives by:

•   Serving the customer and continuously enhancing its experience  

with the Company;

•   Successfully executing its Win Strategy initiatives relating to premier  

customer service, financial performance and profitable growth;

•   Maintaining its decentralized division and sales company structure;

•   Fostering an entrepreneurial culture;

•   Engineering innovative systems and products to provide superior  

customer value through improved service, efficiency and productivity;

•   Delivering products, systems and services that have demonstrable   

savings to customers and are priced by the value they deliver; 

•   Acquiring strategic businesses; 

•   Organizing around targeted regions, technologies and markets;

•   Driving efficiency by implementing lean enterprise principles; and 

•   Creating a culture of empowerment through its values, inclusion  

and diversity, accountability and teamwork.

Acquisitions will be considered from time to time to the extent there is  
a strong strategic fit, while at the same time maintaining the Company’s 
strong financial position. The Company will continue to assess its 
existing businesses and initiate efforts to divest businesses that are not 
considered to be a good long-term strategic fit for the Company. Future 
business divestitures could have a negative effect on the Company’s 
results of operations.

The discussion below is structured to separately discuss each of the 
financial statements presented on pages 22 to 25. All year references 
are to fiscal years.

NET SALES in 2014 were 1.5 percent higher than 2013. Acquisitions 
made in the last 12 months contributed approximately $74 million  
in sales in 2014 and the effect of currency rate changes decreased  
net sales in 2014 by approximately $22 million. Excluding the effect  
of acquisitions and currency rate changes, net sales in 2014 were  
1.1 percent higher than 2013. The increase in sales in 2014 is  
primarily due to higher volume experienced in the Diversified  
Industrial International businesses partially offset by lower sales  
in the Aerospace Systems Segment.

16

Net sales in 2013 were 1.0 percent lower than 2012. Acquisitions  
made during 2013 contributed approximately $448 million in sales  
and the effect of currency rate changes decreased net sales in 2013  
by approximately $140 million. Excluding the effect of acquisitions  
and currency rate changes, net sales in 2013 were 3.3 percent lower 
than 2012. The decrease in sales in 2013 is primarily due to lower 
volume experienced in the Diversified Industrial Segment.

GROSS PROFIT MARGIN increased in 2014 primarily due to lower 
defined benefit costs, and a favorable product mix in the Diversified 
Industrial North American businesses, partially offset by higher 
business realignment charges in the Diversified Industrial International 
businesses and higher product support costs and an unfavorable 
product mix in the Aerospace Systems Segment. Gross profit margin 
decreased in 2013 primarily due to higher defined benefit costs, 
operating inefficiencies in the Diversified Industrial Segment and  
higher engineering development costs in the Aerospace Systems 
Segment. Pension cost included in cost of sales in 2014, 2013 and  
2012 were $174.8 million, $205.7 million and $138.5 million, 
respectively. The lower pension cost in 2014 primarily resulted  
from a lower amount of actuarial losses, primarily related to domestic 
defined benefit plans. The higher pension cost in 2013 primarily  
resulted from a higher amount of actuarial losses, primarily related  
to the domestic defined benefit plans. Included in cost of sales  
in 2014, 2013 and 2012 were business realignment charges of  
$63.6 million, $8.4 million and $12.7 million, respectively.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES increased 5.1 
percent in 2014 and increased 2.3 percent in 2013. The increase in 2014 
was primarily due to higher business realignment expenses and stock 
compensation expense, partially offset by lower expenses associated 
with the Company’s various other incentive compensation programs. 
Stock compensation expense increased primarily as a result of a higher 
stock price used in the calculation of the fair value of the stock awards 
at the date of grant. The increase in 2013 was primarily due to higher 
amortization expense and charitable contributions, partially offset  
by lower net expenses associated with the Company’s incentive and 
deferred compensation programs. Pension cost included in selling, 
general and administrative expenses in 2014, 2013 and 2012 were  
$64.2 million, $78.5 million and $52.8 million, respectively. The lower 
pension cost in 2014 primarily resulted from a lower amount of actuarial 
losses, primarily related to domestic defined benefit plans. The higher 
pension cost in 2013 primarily resulted from a higher amount of actuarial 
losses, primarily related to the domestic defined benefit plans. Included 
in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2014, 2013 and 2012 
were business realignment charges of $38.9 million, $3.9 million and 
$1.0 million, respectively.

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSET IMPAIRMENT related to the 
Worldwide Energy Products Division. Refer to Note 7 to the 
Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

INTEREST EXPENSE in 2014 decreased primarily due to a lower average 
interest rate in the debt portfolio, including lower average borrowing 
rates on commercial paper borrowings, more than offsetting the effect 
of higher weighted-average borrowings. Interest expense in 2013 
decreased primarily due to a lower average interest rate in the debt 
portfolio during the latter part of 2013 than the debt portfolio during the 
latter half of 2012 more than offsetting the effect of higher weighted-
average borrowings and interest rates on commercial paper borrowings.

OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET in 2014 includes $11.1 million of 
income related to the Company’s equity interests in joint ventures.

(GAIN) ON DISPOSAL OF ASSETS in 2014 includes a gain of $412.6 
million related to the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. (Gain) on disposal 
of assets in 2013 includes a net gain of $14.7 million resulting  

from business divestiture activity. (Gain) on disposal of assets in  
2012 included $3.7 million of gains from asset sales.

EFFECTIVE TAX RATE in 2014 was unfavorably impacted by discrete  
tax costs related to a non-deductible goodwill and intangible asset 
impairment charge, the deconsolidation of a subsidiary, and the 
expiration of the U.S. Research and Development credit. The effective 
tax rate in 2013 was higher primarily due to an unfavorable geographical 
mix of earnings. The effective tax rate in 2013 was favorably impacted  
by the enactment of the American Taxpayer Relief Act.

Discussion of Business Segment Information

The Business Segment information presents sales, operating income 
and assets on a basis that is consistent with the manner in which the 
Company’s various businesses are managed for internal review and 
decision-making. As of July 1, 2013, the Company consolidated its 
Climate & Industrial Controls businesses into existing operating groups 
within the Industrial Segment. As a result of this consolidation and 
resulting change in management structure made in connection with  
the strategic divestiture of certain operations in the Climate & Industrial 
Controls Segment, the Company now has two reporting segments:  
Diversified Industrial (formerly referred to as Industrial) and Aerospace 
Systems (formerly referred to as Aerospace). All prior period results 
have been revised to reflect the new reporting segment structure.

Sales in 2014 for the Diversified Industrial North American operations 
increased 1.0 percent from 2013 compared to a 1.2 percent decrease 
from 2012 to 2013. Acquisitions completed within the last 12 months 
contributed approximately $53 million in sales in 2014. The effect of 
currency rate changes decreased 2014 net sales by approximately  
$26 million, reflecting the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against  
the Canadian dollar. Excluding acquisitions and the effect of currency 
rate changes, the change in sales in 2014 reflects higher demand from 
distributors as well as from end-users in the construction equipment 
and oil and gas markets, partially offset by lower end-user demand in 
the heavy-duty truck, farm and agriculture equipment, engine, and car 
and light truck markets. Excluding acquisitions, sales in 2013 decreased 
4.1 percent reflecting lower demand from distributors as well as from 
end-users in most markets with the largest decline occurring in the 
construction equipment, oil and gas, mining, heavy-duty truck and 
machine tool markets.

Sales in the Diversified Industrial International operations increased  
3.5 percent in 2014 compared to a decrease of 4.2 percent from 2012  
to 2013. Acquisitions completed within the last 12 months contributed 
approximately $21 million in sales in 2014. The effect of currency  
rate changes did not have an overall impact on sales in 2014 as 
currency rate changes in Europe were offset by currency rate changes 

in the Asia Pacific region and Latin America. Excluding acquisitions  
and the effect of currency rate changes, sales in 2014 in the Diversified 
Industrial International operations increased 3.1 percent, primarily due 
to higher volume in all regions with 50 percent of the increase occurring 
in the Asia Pacific region and one-third of the increase occurring in 
Europe. Excluding acquisitions and the effect of currency rate changes, 
the sales decrease in 2013 was primarily due to lower volume across 
most markets in all regions with the largest decrease equally distributed 
between Europe and the Asia Pacific region.

The absence of sales from divested businesses was also a contributing 
factor to the sales fluctuation between 2013 and 2014 in both the 
Diversified Industrial North American and Diversified Industrial 
International businesses.

The increase in operating margins in 2014 in the Diversified Industrial 
North American operations was primarily due to the higher sales volume, 
a favorable product mix and lower raw material prices, partially offset 
by higher intangible asset amortization expense related to 2013 
acquisitions. The decrease in operating margins in 2014 in the Diversified 
Industrial International operations was primarily due to higher business 
realignment charges and associated operating inefficiencies partially 
offset by the impact of the higher sales volume and a favorable product 
mix. The decrease in operating margins in 2013 in the Diversified 
Industrial North American operations was primarily due to an unfavorable 
product mix and operating inefficiencies resulting from the decrease  
in sales volume, partially offset by the favorable effect of lower raw 
material prices. The decrease in operating margins in 2013 in the 
Diversified Industrial International operations was primarily due to  
the lower sales volume, resulting in operating inefficiencies, as well  
as the impact of integration costs related to 2013 acquisitions.

The following business realignment charges are included in Diversified 
Industrial North America and Diversified Industrial International 
operating income:

The business realignment charges consist primarily of severance  
costs resulting from plant closures as well as general reductions in 
work force. The majority of the Diversified Industrial International 
business realignment charges were incurred in Europe. The Industrial 
North America business realignment charges for 2012 also included 
expenses associated with enhanced retirement benefits. The Company 
does not anticipate that cost savings realized from the work force 
reductions taken during 2014 in the Diversified Industrial North 
American businesses will have a material impact on future operating 
income and anticipates that cost savings realized from work force 
reduction measures taken in the Diversified Industrial International 
businesses will positively impact operating income by approximately 
nine percent in 2015. In 2015, the Company expects to continue to  
take actions necessary to structure appropriately the operations of  
the Diversified Industrial Segment. Such actions are expected to result 
in approximately $55 million in business realignment charges in 2015.

The Company anticipates Diversified Industrial North American sales  
for 2015 will increase between 3.0 percent and 7.0 percent from the  
2014 level and Diversified Industrial International sales for 2015 will 
increase between 1.0 percent and 4.0 percent from the 2014 level. 
Diversified Industrial North American operating margins in 2015 are 
expected to range from 16.5 percent to 16.9 percent and Diversified 
Industrial International margins are expected to range from 14.7 percent 
to 15.7 percent.

The increase in total Diversified Industrial Segment backlog in 2014  
was primarily due to order rates exceeding shipments in the Diversified 
Industrial North American businesses. The decline in total Diversified 
Industrial Segment backlog in 2013 was primarily due to lower order 
rates in both the Diversified Industrial North American and Diversified 
Industrial International businesses, partially offset by an increase in 
backlog from acquisitions. Backlog consists of written firm orders  
from a customer to deliver products and, in the case of blanket 
purchase orders, only includes the portion of the order for which  
a schedule or release date has been agreed to with the customer.  
The dollar value of backlog is equal to the amount that is expected  
to be billed to the customer and reported as a sale.

The increase in assets in 2014 was primarily due to the effect of 
currency fluctuations and an increase in accounts receivable, partially 
offset by decreases in goodwill, intangible assets and inventory. The 
increase in assets in 2013 was primarily due to acquisitions as well as 
increases in plant and equipment, net and cash and cash equivalents, 
partially offset by the effect of currency fluctuations as well as 
decreases in inventory and intangible assets.

Sales in 2014 were lower than the 2013 level as higher volume in the 
commercial original equipment manufacturer (OEM) business was offset 
by the absence of sales from the deconsolidated subsidiary whose sales 
are now reported by the joint venture with GE Aviation as well as lower 
volume in the military OEM and aftermarket businesses and the commercial 
aftermarket business. The increase in net sales in 2013 was primarily 
due to higher volume in all businesses with the largest increase being 
experienced in the commercial and military OEM businesses.

The lower margin in 2014 was primarily due to an unfavorable product 
mix, the impact of the joint venture with GE Aviation, and higher  
product support costs. Margins in 2014 were favorably impacted by  
the finalization of contract negotiations related to certain programs.  
The lower margin in 2013 was primarily due to higher engineering 
development costs, including fuel cell development, more than 
offsetting the benefit of the higher sales volume.

The increase in backlog in 2014 was primarily due to order rates 
exceeding shipments in the commercial and military OEM businesses, 
partially offset by shipments exceeding order rates in the military  
and commercial aftermarket businesses as well as the absence of 
backlog of the deconsolidated subsidiary. The increase in backlog in  
2013 was primarily due to higher commercial and military OEM orders  
and commercial aftermarket orders, partially offset by lower military 
aftermarket orders. Backlog consists of written firm orders from  
a customer to deliver products and, in the case of blanket purchase 
orders, only includes the portion of the order for which a schedule  
or release date has been agreed to with the customer. The dollar  
value of backlog is equal to the amount that is expected to be billed  
to the customer and reported as a sale.

For 2015, sales are expected to increase between 2.0 percent and  
3.0 percent from the 2014 level and operating margins are expected  
to range from 13.1 percent to 13.9 percent. A higher concentration  

of commercial OEM volume in future product mix and higher than 
expected new product development costs could result in lower margins.

The increase in assets in 2014 was primarily due to the investment  
in the joint venture with GE Aviation. The increase in assets in 2013  
was primarily due to increases in accounts receivable, inventory and 
intangible assets.

CORPORATE assets increased 19.9 percent in 2014 compared to an 
increase of 39.7 percent from 2012 to 2013. The change in Corporate 
assets in 2014 and 2013 was primarily due to fluctuations in the  
amount of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities.  
The change in 2013 was also due to a fluctuation in deferred taxes.

CASH (comprised of cash and cash equivalents and marketable 
securities) includes $2,126 million and $1,655 million held by the 
Company’s foreign subsidiaries at June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, 
respectively. Generally, cash and cash equivalents and marketable 
securities held by foreign subsidiaries are not readily available for use  
in the United States without adverse tax consequences. The Company’s 
principal sources of liquidity are its cash flows provided by operating 
activities, commercial paper borrowings or borrowings directly from  
its line of credit. The Company does not believe the level of its non-U.S. 
cash position will have an adverse effect on working capital needs, 
planned growth, repayment of maturing debt, benefit plan funding, 
dividend payments or share repurchases.

TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, NET are receivables due from customers 
for sales of product. Days sales outstanding relating to trade receivables 
for the Company was 48 days in 2014 and 49 days in 2013. The Company 
believes that its receivables are collectible and appropriate allowances 
for doubtful accounts have been recorded.

INVENTORIES decreased $6 million (which includes an increase of $22 
million from the effect of foreign currency translation and a decrease  
of $34 million related to the deconsolidation of a subsidiary) primarily 
due to a decrease in inventory levels in the Aerospace Systems Segment 
partially offset by an increase in inventory levels in the Diversified 
Industrial International businesses. Days supply of inventory on hand 
was 61 days in 2014 and 62 days in 2013.

INVESTMENTS AND OTHER ASSETS at June 30, 2014 includes the 
fair value of the Company’s equity investment in the joint venture  
with GE Aviation. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements  
for further discussion.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS, NET AND GOODWILL decreased from the 2013 
amounts primarily due to impairment charges of approximately $44 
million and $140 million, respectively, recognized in the second quarter 
of fiscal 2014. See Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for 
further discussion.

In both 2013 and 2012, the Company purchased the outstanding shares 
not previously owned by the Company in majority-owned subsidiaries. 
Cash flows used in financing activities in 2012 included a borrowing  
and a repayment, each for Japanese Yen (JPY) 6 billion (approximately 
$73 million), under the terms of separate credit facilities.

NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT PAYABLE WITHIN ONE YEAR 
decreased primarily due to a lower amount of commercial paper 
borrowings outstanding at the end of 2014. The Company from time  
to time will utilize short-term intercompany loans to repay commercial 
paper borrowings. At times, the short-term intercompany loans are 
outstanding at the end of a fiscal quarter.

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY activity during 2014 included a decrease of 
$200 million related to share repurchases, an increase of $91 million 
related to pensions and postretirement benefits, and an increase  
of $193 million related to foreign currency translation adjustments.

Dividends have been paid for 256 consecutive quarters, including a 
yearly increase in dividends for the last 58 fiscal years. The current 
annual dividend rate is $1.92.

The Company’s goal is to maintain no less than an “A” rating on  
senior debt to ensure availability and reasonable cost of external funds. 
As one means of achieving this objective, the Company has established  
a financial goal of maintaining a ratio of debt to debt-shareholders’ 
equity of no more than 37 percent.

CASH FLOWS FROM OPERATING ACTIVITIES in 2014 benefited from a 
$294 million increase in cash provided by working capital items partially 
offset by a $184 million decrease in net income after consideration of 
non-cash items, including a $413 million gain on the deconsolidation  
of a subsidiary and a $189 million impairment charge. Refer to Note 2 
and Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion 
of the gain on deconsolidation and impairment charge, respectively. 
During 2014, the Company also made a $75 million voluntary cash 
contribution to the Company’s domestic qualified defined benefit plan. 
Cash flow from operating activities decreased from 2012 primarily due 
to a decrease in net income as well as $226 million of voluntary cash 
contributions made to the Company’s domestic qualified defined benefit 
pension plan in 2013.

CASH FLOWS USED IN INVESTING ACTIVITIES decreased from 2013 
primarily due to a lower level of acquisition activity and the proceeds 
from the sale of a 50 percent equity interest in a subsidiary related to 
the joint venture with GE Aviation (refer to Note 2 to the Consolidated 
Financial Statements for further discussion), partially offset by purchases 
of marketable securities and other investments. Cash flows used in 
investing activities increased from 2012 primarily due to an increase  
in acquisition activity and capital expenditures, partially offset by net 
proceeds from business divestitures.

CASH FLOWS USED IN FINANCING ACTIVITIES increased from 2013 
primarily due to a lower level of borrowings required to support 
acquisition activity. The Company repurchased 1.7 million common 
shares for $200 million during 2014 as compared to the repurchase  
of approximately 3.0 million common shares for $257 million in 2013 
and 6.4 million common shares for $455 million in 2012. Cash flows 
provided by financing activities in 2013 included a higher level of 
commercial paper borrowings due to the increase in acquisition activity. 

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had a line of credit totaling $2,000 
million through a multi-currency revolving credit agreement with a 
group of banks, of which $1,184 million was available at June 30, 2014. 
The credit agreement expires in October 2017; however, the Company 
has the right to request a one-year extension of the expiration date on 
an annual basis, which request may result in changes to the current 
terms and conditions of the credit agreement. Advances from the  
credit agreement can be used for general corporate purposes, including 
acquisitions, and for the refinancing of existing indebtedness. The 
revolving credit agreement requires the payment of an annual facility 
fee, the amount of which would increase in the event the Company’s 
credit ratings are lowered. Although a lowering of the Company’s  
credit ratings would likely increase the cost of future debt, it would  
not limit the Company’s ability to use the credit agreement nor would  
it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.

The Company is currently authorized to sell up to $1,850 million of 
short-term commercial paper notes. As of June 30, 2014, $816 million 
of commercial paper notes were outstanding and the largest amount  
of commercial paper notes outstanding during the last quarter of  
2014 was $1,079 million.

The Company’s credit agreements and indentures governing certain 
debt agreements contain various covenants, the violation of which 
would limit or preclude the use of the applicable agreements for future 
borrowings, or might accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding 
borrowings covered by the applicable agreements. Based on the 
Company’s rating level at June 30, 2014, the most restrictive financial 
covenant contained in the credit agreements and the indentures 
provides that the ratio of secured debt to net tangible assets be  
less than 10 percent. However, the Company currently does not have 
secured debt in its debt portfolio. The Company is in compliance with  
all covenants and expects to remain in compliance during the term  
of the credit agreements and indentures.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS – The total amount of gross unrecognized 
tax benefits, including interest, for uncertain tax positions was $173.0 
million at June 30, 2014. Payment of these obligations would result 
from settlements with worldwide taxing authorities. Due to the difficulty 
in determining the timing of the settlements, these obligations are not 
included in the following summary of the Company’s fixed contractual 
obligations. References to Notes are to the Notes to the Consolidated

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About 
Market Risk

The Company manages foreign currency transaction and translation risk 
by utilizing derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, including 
forward exchange contracts, costless collar contracts, cross-currency 
swap contracts and certain foreign denominated debt designated as net 
investment hedges. The derivative financial instrument contracts are 
with major investment grade financial institutions and the Company 
does not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the 
counterparties. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial 
instruments for trading purposes.

Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated 
Balance Sheet as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair 
value. Further information on the fair value of these contracts is 
provided in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Gains  
or losses on derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to fair  
value through the Consolidated Statement of Income. Gains or losses  
on derivatives that are hedges are adjusted to fair value through 
accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Consolidated 
Balance Sheet until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The 
translation of the foreign denominated debt that has been designated as 
a net investment hedge is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive 
income (loss) and remains there until the underlying net investment is 
sold or substantially liquidated.

The Company’s debt portfolio contains variable rate debt, inherently 
exposing the Company to interest rate risk. The Company’s objective  
is to maintain a 60/40 mix between fixed rate and variable rate debt 
thereby limiting its exposure to changes in near-term interest rates.  
A 100 basis point increase in near-term interest rates would increase 
annual interest expense on variable rate debt existing at June 30, 2014 
by approximately $12 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting 
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires 
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the 
amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. 
The policies discussed below are considered by management to be 
more critical than other policies because their application places the 
most significant demands on management’s judgment.

REVENUE RECOGNITION – Substantially all of the Diversified Industrial 
Segment revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an 
arrangement exists, product has shipped and the risks and rewards of 
ownership have transferred or services have been rendered, the price to 
the customer is fixed and determinable and collectibility is reasonably 
assured, which is generally at the time the product is shipped. The 
Aerospace Systems Segment recognizes revenues primarily using the 
percentage of completion method and the extent of progress toward 
completion is primarily measured using the units-of-delivery method. 
The Company estimates costs to complete long-term contracts for 
purposes of evaluating and establishing contract reserves. The 
estimation of these costs requires substantial judgment on the part  
of management due to the duration of the contractual agreements as 
well as the technical nature of the products involved. Adjustments to 
cost estimates are made on a consistent basis and a contract reserve  
is established when the estimated costs to complete a contract exceed  
the expected contract revenues.

IMPAIRMENT OF GOODWILL AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS – Goodwill is 
tested for impairment, at the reporting unit level, on an annual basis and 
between annual tests whenever events or circumstances indicate that 
the carrying value of a reporting unit may exceed its fair value. For the 
Company, a reporting unit is one level below the operating segment 
level. Determining whether an impairment has occurred requires the 
valuation of the respective reporting unit, which the Company has 
consistently estimated using primarily a discounted cash flow model. 
The Company believes that the use of a discounted cash flow model 
results in the most accurate calculation of a reporting unit’s fair value 
since the market value for a reporting unit is not readily available. The 
discounted cash flow analysis requires several assumptions including 
future sales growth and operating margin levels as well as assumptions 
regarding future industry specific market conditions. Each reporting 
unit regularly prepares discrete operating forecasts and uses these 
forecasts as the basis for the assumptions used in the discounted cash 
flow analysis. The Company has consistently used a discount rate 
commensurate with its cost of capital, adjusted for inherent business 
risks, and an appropriate terminal growth factor. The Company also 
reconciles the estimated aggregate fair value of its reporting units  
as derived from the discounted cash flow analysis to the Company’s 
overall market capitalization.

The Company continually monitors its reporting units for impairment 
indicators and updates assumptions used in the most recent calculation 
of the fair value of a reporting unit as appropriate. During fiscal 2014, 
the Company made a decision to restructure and change the strategic 
direction of its Worldwide Energy Products Division (EPD). The 
Company calculated the fair value of EPD using assumptions reflecting 
the Company’s current strategic direction for this reporting unit, the 
results of which indicated that the carrying value of EPD exceeded its 
fair value. As a result, the Company estimated the implied fair value  
of EPD’s goodwill, which resulted in a non-cash impairment charge  
of $140.3 million. The fair value of EPD was calculated using both a 
discounted cash flow analysis and estimated fair market values of 
comparable businesses. The results of the Company’s fiscal 2014 
annual goodwill impairment test performed as of December 31, 2013 
indicated that no additional goodwill impairment existed.

The Company is unaware of any current market trends that are  
contrary to the assumptions made in the estimation of the fair value  
of any of its reporting units. If actual experience is not consistent with 
the assumptions made in the estimation of the fair value of the reporting 
units, especially assumptions regarding penetration into new markets 
and the recovery of the current economic environment, it is possible 
that the estimated fair value of certain reporting units could fall below 
their carrying value resulting in the necessity to conduct additional 
goodwill impairment tests.

Long-lived assets held for use, which primarily includes finite-lived 
intangible assets and plant and equipment, are evaluated for impairment 
whenever events or circumstances indicate that the undiscounted net 
cash flows to be generated by their use over their expected useful  
lives and eventual disposition are less than their carrying value.  
The long-term nature of these assets requires the estimation of their 
cash inflows and outflows several years into the future and only takes 
into consideration technological advances known at the time of the 
impairment test. During fiscal 2014, in connection with the goodwill 
impairment review discussed above, the Company determined certain 
intangible assets of EPD, primarily trademarks and customer lists, and 
plant and equipment were impaired resulting in a non-cash impairment 
charge of $48.6 million. The fair value of EPD’s intangible assets and 
plant and equipment were determined using the income approach for 
each asset. There were no events or circumstances that indicated that 
the carrying value of the Company’s remaining long-lived assets held  
for use were not recoverable.

INVENTORIES – Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. 
Cost is determined on the last-in, first-out basis for a majority of 
domestic inventories and on the first-in, first-out basis for the balance 
of the Company’s inventories. Inventories have been reduced by an 
allowance for obsolete inventories. The estimated allowance is based  
on management’s review of inventories on hand compared to estimated 
future usage and sales. Changes in the allowance have not had a 
material effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial 
position or cash flows.

PENSIONS AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS – 
The annual net periodic expense and benefit obligations related to the 
Company’s defined benefit plans are determined on an actuarial basis. 
This determination requires critical assumptions regarding the discount 
rate, long-term rate of return on plan assets, increases in compensation 
levels, amortization periods for actuarial gains and losses and health 
care cost trends.

Assumptions are determined based on Company data and appropriate 
market indicators, and are evaluated each year as of the plans’ 
measurement date. Changes in the assumptions to reflect actual 
experience as well as the amortization of actuarial gains and losses 
could result in a material change in the annual net periodic expense  
and benefit obligations reported in the financial statements. For the 
Company’s domestic defined benefit plans, a 50 basis point change  
in the assumed long-term rate of return on plan assets is estimated  
to have an $11 million effect on pension expense and a 50 basis point 
decrease in the discount rate is estimated to increase pension expense 
by $18 million. As of June 30, 2014, $1,016 million of past years’ net 
actuarial losses related to the Company’s domestic qualified defined 
benefit plans are subject to amortization in the future. These losses  
will generally be amortized over approximately eight years and will 
negatively affect earnings in the future. Actuarial gains experienced in 
future years will help reduce the effect of the actuarial loss amortization.

Further information on pensions and postretirement benefits other than 
pensions is provided in Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION – The computation of the expense 
associated with stock-based compensation requires the use of a 
valuation model. The Company currently uses a Black-Scholes option 
pricing model to calculate the fair value of its stock options and stock 
appreciation rights. The Black-Scholes model requires assumptions 
regarding the volatility of the Company’s stock, the expected life of the 
stock award and the Company’s dividend ratio. The Company primarily 
uses historical data to determine the assumptions to be used in the 
Black-Scholes model and has no reason to believe that future data is 
likely to differ materially from historical data. However, changes in the 
assumptions to reflect future stock price volatility, future dividend 
payments and future stock award exercise experience could result in a 
change in the assumptions used to value awards in the future and may 
result in a material change to the fair value calculation of stock-based 
awards. Further information on stock-based compensation is provided 
in Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

INCOME TAXES – Significant judgment is required in determining  
the Company’s income tax expense and in evaluating tax positions. 
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities have been recorded for  
the differences between the financial accounting and income tax  
basis of assets and liabilities. Factors considered by the Company  
in determining the probability of realizing deferred income tax assets 
include forecasted operating earnings, available tax planning strategies 
and the time period over which the temporary differences will reverse. 
The Company reviews its tax positions on a regular basis and adjusts 
the balances as new information becomes available. Further information 
on income taxes is provided in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial 
Statements.

LOSS CONTINGENCIES – The Company has a number of loss exposures 
incurred in the ordinary course of business such as environmental 
claims, product liability, litigation and accounts receivable reserves. 
Establishing loss accruals for these matters requires management’s 
estimate and judgment with regards to risk exposure and ultimate 
liability or realization. These loss accruals are reviewed periodically  
and adjustments are made to reflect the most recent facts and 
circumstances.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued 
Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, “Revenue from  
Contracts with Customers.”  ASU 2014-09 requires revenue recognition 
to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount 
that reflects the consideration that a company expects to be entitled  
to in exchange for the goods or services. To achieve this principle, a 
company must apply five steps including, identifying the contract with  
a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, 
determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to  
the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when (or as) the 
company satisfies the performance obligations. Additional quantitative 
and qualitative disclosure to enhance the understanding about the 
nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows  
is also required. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim 
periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The 
Company has not yet determined the effect that ASU 2014-09 will  
have on its results of operations, statement of financial position,  
or financial statement disclosures.

As of July 1, 2013, the Company consolidated its Climate & Industrial 
Controls businesses into existing operating groups within the Industrial 
Segment.  As a result of this consolidation and the resulting change in 
management structure made in connection with the strategic divestiture 
of certain operations in the Climate & Industrials Control Segment,  
the Company now has two reporting segments: Diversified Industrial 
(formerly referred to as Industrial) and Aerospace Systems (formerly 
referred to as Aerospace). All prior period results have been revised  
to reflect the new reporting segment structure.

The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those 
described in the Significant Accounting Policies footnote except that the 
business segment results are prepared on a basis that is consistent with 
the manner in which the Company’s management disaggregates financial 
information for internal review and decision-making.

(a)  Includes investments in joint-venture companies in which ownership 

is 50 percent or less and in which the Company does not have 
operating control (2014 – $263,246).

(b)  Corporate assets are principally cash and cash equivalents, 

marketable securities, domestic deferred income taxes, investments, 
benefit plan assets, headquarters facilities and the major portion of  
the Company’s domestic data processing equipment.

$      216,340  

$      340,335

(c)  Includes the value of net plant and equipment at the date of

acquisition of acquired companies (2013 – $74,439; 2012 – $28,929).

(d)  Net sales are attributed to countries based on the location of the 

selling unit. North America includes the United States, Canada and 
Mexico. No country other than the United States represents greater  
than 10 percent of consolidated sales. Long-lived assets are 
comprised of plant and equipment based on physical location.

systems, providing precision engineered solutions for a wide variety  
of mobile, industrial and aerospace markets. The Company evaluates 
performance based on segment operating income before corporate  
and administrative expenses, interest expense and income taxes.

The Diversified Industrial Segment is an aggregation of several  
business units, which manufacture motion-control and fluid power 
system components for builders and users of various types of 
manufacturing, packaging, processing, transportation, agricultural, 
construction, and military vehicles and equipment. Diversified Industrial 
Segment products are marketed primarily through field sales employees 
and independent distributors. The Diversified Industrial North American 
operations have manufacturing plants and distribution networks 
throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico and primarily service 
North America. The Diversified Industrial International operations 
provide Parker products and services to 47 countries throughout 
Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa.

The Aerospace Systems Segment produces hydraulic, fuel, pneumatic 
and electro-mechanical systems and components, which are utilized  
on virtually every domestic commercial, military and general aviation 
aircraft and also performs a vital role in naval vessels and land-based 
weapons systems. This Segment serves original equipment and 
maintenance, repair and overhaul customers worldwide. Aerospace 
Systems Segment products are marketed by field sales employees  
and are sold directly to manufacturers and end users.

See the table of Business Segment Information “By Industry” and  
“By Geographic Area” on page 23 for further disclosure of business 
segment information.

There are no individual customers to whom sales are more than three 
percent of the Company’s consolidated sales. Due to the diverse group 
of customers throughout the world the Company does not consider 
itself exposed to any concentration of credit risks.

The Company manufactures and markets its products throughout  
the world. Although certain risks and uncertainties exist, the diversity 
and breadth of the Company’s products and geographic operations 
mitigate the risk that adverse changes with respect to any particular 
product and geographic operation would materially affect the Company’s 
operating results.

USE OF ESTIMATES – The preparation of financial statements in 
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the  
United States of America requires management to make estimates  
and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial 
statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ  
from those estimates.

BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION – The consolidated financial statements 
include the accounts of all majority-owned domestic and foreign 
subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and profits have been 
eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The Company  
does not have off-balance sheet arrangements. Within the Business 
Segment Information, intersegment and interarea sales have been 
eliminated.

REVENUE RECOGNITION – Revenue is recognized when persuasive 
evidence of an arrangement exists, product has shipped and the risks 
and rewards of ownership have transferred or services have been 
rendered, the price to the customer is fixed and determinable and 
collectibility is reasonably assured, which is generally at the time the 
product is shipped. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers  
are included in net sales and the related costs in cost of sales.

LONG-TERM CONTRACTS – The Company enters into long-term 
contracts primarily for the production of aerospace products. For 
financial statement purposes, revenues are primarily recognized using 
the percentage-of-completion method. The extent of progress toward 
completion is primarily measured using the units-of-delivery method. 
Unbilled costs on these contracts are included in inventory. Progress 
payments are netted against the inventory balances. The Company 
estimates costs to complete long-term contracts for purposes of 
evaluating and establishing contract reserves. Adjustments to cost 
estimates are made on a consistent basis and a contract reserve is 
established when the estimated costs to complete a contract exceed  
the expected contract revenues.

CASH – Cash equivalents consist of short-term highly liquid investments, 
with a three-month or less maturity, carried at cost plus accrued 
interest, which are readily convertible into cash. 

MARKETABLE SECURITIES – Consist of short-term highly liquid 
investments, with stated maturities of greater than three months from 
the date of purchase, carried at cost plus accrued interest.

TRADE ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, NET – Trade accounts receivable  
are initially recorded at their net collectible amount and are generally 
recorded at the time the revenue from the sales transaction is recorded. 
Receivables are written off to bad debt primarily when, in the judgment 
of the Company, the receivable is deemed to be uncollectible due to  
the insolvency of the debtor. Allowance for doubtful accounts was 
$16,040 and $14,824 at June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

NON-TRADE AND NOTES RECEIVABLE – The non-trade and notes 
receivable caption in the Consolidated Balance Sheet is comprised  
of the following components:

Reverse repurchase agreements are collateralized lending arrangements 
and have a maturity longer than three months from the date of purchase. 
The Company does not record an asset or liability for the collateral 
associated with the reverse repurchase agreements. 

PLANT, EQUIPMENT AND DEPRECIATION – Plant and equipment are 
recorded at cost and are depreciated principally using the straight-line 
method for financial reporting purposes. Depreciation rates are based 
on estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 40 years for buildings, 
15 years for land improvements and building equipment, seven to  
10 years for machinery and equipment, and three to eight years for 
vehicles and office equipment. Improvements, which extend the useful 
life of property, are capitalized, and maintenance and repairs are 
expensed. The Company reviews plant and equipment for impairment 
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their 
carrying value may not be recoverable. When plant and equipment are 
retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation 
are removed from the appropriate accounts and any gain or loss is 
included in current income.

INVESTMENTS AND OTHER ASSETS – Investments in joint-venture 
companies in which ownership is 50 percent or less and in which the 
Company does not have operating control are stated at cost plus the 
Company’s equity in undistributed earnings and amounted to $324,610 
and $61,117 at June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. The 
Company’s share of earnings from these investments were immaterial 
to the Company’s results of operations.

GOODWILL – The Company conducts a formal impairment test of goodwill 
on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or 
circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair 
value of a reporting unit below its carrying value.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS – Intangible assets primarily include patents, 
trademarks and customer lists and are recorded at cost and amortized 
on a straight-line method. Patents are amortized over the shorter of 
their remaining useful or legal life. Trademarks are amortized over  
the estimated time period over which an economic benefit is expected  
to be received. Customer lists are amortized over a period based on 
anticipated customer attrition rates. The Company reviews intangible 
assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances 
indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable.

INCOME TAXES – Income taxes are provided based upon income  
for financial reporting purposes. Deferred income taxes arise from 
temporary differences in the recognition of income and expense  
for tax purposes. Tax credits and similar tax incentives are applied  
to reduce the provision for income taxes in the year in which the  
credits arise. The Company recognizes accrued interest related  
to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Penalties,  
if incurred, are recognized in income tax expense.

PRODUCT WARRANTY – In the ordinary course of business the  
Company warrants its products against defect in design, materials  
and workmanship over various time periods. The warranty accrual at 
June 30, 2014 and 2013 is immaterial to the financial position of the 
Company and the change in the accrual during 2014, 2013 and 2012 
was immaterial to the Company’s results of operations and cash flows.

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION – Assets and liabilities of foreign 
subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates, and income and 
expenses are translated using weighted-average exchange rates. The 
effects of these translation adjustments, as well as gains and losses 
from certain intercompany transactions, are reported in the accumulated 
other comprehensive (loss) component of shareholders’ equity. Such 
adjustments will affect net income only upon sale or liquidation of the 
underlying foreign investments, which is not contemplated at this time. 
Exchange gains and losses from transactions in a currency other than 
the local currency of the entity involved, and translation adjustments in 
countries with highly inflationary economies, are included in net income.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS – The Company has evaluated subsequent  
events that have occurred through the date of filing of the Company’s 
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.  
No subsequent events occurred that required adjustment to or 
disclosure in these financial statements.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS – In May 2014, the  
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting 
Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with 
Customers.” ASU 2014-09 requires revenue recognition to depict  
the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that 
reflects the consideration that a company expects to be entitled to  
in exchange for the goods or services. To achieve this principle,  
a company must apply five steps including, identifying the contract  
with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, 
determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to  
the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when (or as)  
the company satisfies the performance obligations. Additional 
quantitative and qualitative disclosure to enhance the understanding 
about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash 
flows is also required. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and 
interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. 
The Company has not yet determined the effect that ASU 2014-09  
will have on its results of operations, statement of financial position,  
or financial statement disclosures.

NOTE 2. Deconsolidation of Subsidiary, Acquisitions  
and Divestitures

DECONSOLIDATION OF SUBSIDIARY – During 2014, the Company and  
GE Aviation, a non-related party, finalized a joint venture in which  
the Company sold a 50 percent equity interest in one of its wholly-
owned subsidiaries. The sale of the 50 percent equity interest in the 
wholly-owned subsidiary resulted in a loss of control of the subsidiary, 
and therefore it was deconsolidated from the Company’s financial 
statements during the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The Company’s 
equity interest in the joint venture with GE Aviation at June 30, 2014  
of $263,246 is accounted for using the equity method of accounting.  
A significant portion of the underlying net assets of the joint venture  
are related to goodwill.

The Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $413 million on the 
deconsolidation, measured as the fair value of the consideration 
received for the 50 percent equity interest in the former subsidiary  
and the fair value of the retained investment less the carrying amount  
of the former subsidiary’s net assets. Approximately $186 million of  
the pre-tax gain is attributable to the remeasurement of the retained 
investment in the former subsidiary to its current fair value. The gain is 
reflected in the (gain) on disposal of assets caption in the Consolidated 
Statement of Income and the other (income) expense caption in the 
Business Segment Information.

ACQUISITIONS – During 2014, the Company completed three 
acquisitions whose aggregate sales for their most recent fiscal year 
prior to acquisition were approximately $14 million. Total purchase  
price for the three acquisitions was approximately $19 million in cash.

During 2013, the Company completed eight acquisitions whose 
aggregate sales for their most recent fiscal year prior to acquisition 
were approximately $484 million. Total purchase price for the eight 
acquisitions was approximately $621 million in cash and $114 million  
in assumed debt.  

During 2012, the Company completed four acquisitions whose 
aggregate sales for their most recent fiscal year prior to acquisition 
were approximately $141 million. Total purchase price for the four 
acquisitions in 2012 was approximately $156 million in cash. Also 
during 2012, the Company purchased the outstanding shares not 
previously owned by the Company in two majority-owned subsidiaries. 
Total purchase price for the two majority-owned subsidiaries was 
approximately $147 million in cash. 

closures in the Diversified Industrial Segment, and are reflected in the 
other (income) expense caption in the Business Segment information 
for 2014. During 2013, $1,918 of severance costs for 98 people were 
recognized in connection with the Company’s divestiture of its Turkey 
refrigeration components business and is reflected in the other (income)
expense caption in the Business Segment Information. The business 
realignment charges in 2012 also included charges related to enhanced 
retirement benefits. The Company believes the realignment actions 
taken will positively impact future results of operations, but will have  
no material effect on liquidity and sources and uses of capital. 

The business realignment charges are presented in the Consolidated 
Statement of Income as follows:

   administrative expenses

As of June 30, 2014, approximately $31 million in severance payments 
have been made relating to charges incurred during 2014. The majority 
of the remaining severance payments of approximately $62 million  
are expected to be paid by June 30, 2015 and are reflected within the 
other accrued liabilities caption in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.  
All required severance payments have been made relating to charges 
incurred in 2013 and 2012. Additional charges may be recognized  
in future periods related to the realignment actions described above,  
the timing and amount of which are not known at this time.

DIVESTITURES – During 2013, the Company completed several 
divestitures, the primary ones being the automotive businesses of  
its Mobile Climate Systems division and its Turkey refrigeration 
components business. Under the segment structure effective July 1, 
2013, both of these businesses would have been part of the Diversified 
Industrial Segment and had combined revenues of approximately  
$158 million for fiscal 2012. The Company recorded a net pre-tax gain  
during 2013 of approximately $18 million related to these divestitures. 
The gain is reflected in the (gain) on disposal of assets caption in the 
Consolidated Statement of Income.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company has recorded deferred tax assets of 
$340,676 resulting from $1,212,459 in loss carryforwards. A valuation 
allowance of $323,358 related to the loss carryforwards has been 
established due to the uncertainty of realizing certain deferred tax 
assets. Of this valuation allowance, $296,598 relates to non-operating 
entities whose loss carryforward utilization is considered to be remote. 
Some of the loss carryforwards can be carried forward indefinitely; 
others can be carried forward from three to 20 years. In addition,  
a valuation allowance of $25,479 related to future deductible items  
has been established due to the uncertainty of their realization.  
These future deductible items are recorded in the other liabilities  
and reserves line in the table above.

Provision has not been made for additional U.S. or foreign taxes on 
undistributed earnings of certain international operations as those 
earnings will continue to be reinvested. It is not practicable to estimate 
the additional taxes, including applicable foreign withholding taxes,  
that might be payable on the eventual remittance of such earnings. 
Accumulated undistributed earnings reinvested in international 
operations amounted to approximately $2,800,000 at June 30, 2014.

The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would 
affect the effective tax rate was $71,898, $60,876 and $61,601 as of 
June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. If recognized, a significant 
portion of the gross unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2014 
would be offset against an asset currently recorded in the Consolidated 
Balance Sheet. The accrued interest related to the gross unrecognized 
tax benefits, excluded from the amounts above, was $8,198, $5,184  
and $3,676 as of June 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively. 

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United 
States and in various foreign jurisdictions. In the normal course of 
business, the Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by 
taxing authorities throughout the world. The Company is no longer 
subject to examinations of its federal income tax returns by the United 
States Internal Revenue Service for fiscal years through 2012. All 
significant state, local and foreign tax returns have been examined for 
fiscal years through 2006. The Company does not anticipate that, within 
the next twelve months, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits 
will significantly change due to the settlement of examinations and the 
expiration of statute of limitations.

NOTE 5. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted-average 
number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted 
earnings per share are computed using the weighted-average number  
of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding during 
the year. Common share equivalents represent the dilutive effect of 
outstanding stock-based awards. The computation of net income per 
share was as follows:

the effect of their exercise would be anti-dilutive. 

NOTE 6. Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The majority  
of domestic inventories are valued by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) cost 
method and the balance of the Company’s inventories are valued by  
the first-in, first-out cost method.

Inventories valued on the LIFO cost method were approximately  
30 percent of total inventories in 2014 and 29 percent of total 
inventories in 2013. The current cost of these inventories exceeds  
their valuation determined on the LIFO basis by $208,291 in 2014  
and $207,277 in 2013. Progress payments of $61,958 in 2014  
and $42,446 in 2013 are netted against inventories.

Acquisitions represent the original goodwill allocation, purchase price 
adjustments, and final adjustments to the purchase price allocation  
for the acquisitions during the measurement period subsequent to the 
applicable acquisition dates. The Company’s previously reported results 
of operations and financial position would not be materially different 
had the goodwill adjustments recorded during 2014 and 2013 been 
reflected in the same reporting period that the initial purchase price 
allocations for those acquisitions were made.

Divestitures represent goodwill associated with businesses divested 
during 2013 as more fully discussed in Note 2 to the Consolidated 
Financial Statements.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company made a decision 
to restructure and change the strategic direction of its Worldwide 
Energy Products Division (EPD). The Company calculated the fair value 
of EPD using assumptions reflecting the Company’s updated strategic 
direction for this reporting unit, the results of which indicated that the 
carrying value of EPD exceeded its fair value. As a result, the Company 
estimated the implied fair value of EPD’s goodwill, which resulted in a 

non-cash impairment charge of $140,334. The impairment charge  
is reflected in the goodwill and intangible asset impairment caption  
in the Consolidated Statement of Income and in the other (income) 
expense caption in the Business Segment Information. The fair value  
of EPD was calculated using both a discounted cash flow analysis  
and estimated fair market values of comparable businesses with  
each valuation method having equal weight. Fair value calculated  
using a discounted cash flow analysis is classified within level 3 of  
the fair value hierarchy and requires several assumptions including a 
risk-adjusted interest rate and future sales and operating margin levels. 

The Company’s annual impairment tests performed in 2014, 2013,  
and 2012 resulted in no impairment loss being recognized. 

Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line method over  
their legal or estimated useful life. The gross carrying value and 
accumulated amortization for each major category of intangible  
asset at June 30 are as follows:

 2014

During 2014, the Company acquired intangible assets, either  
individually or as part of a group of assets, with an initial purchase  
price allocation and weighted-average life as follows:

Total intangible amortization expense in 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 
$118,782, $118,516 and $107,086, respectively. Estimated intangible 
amortization expense for the five years ending June 30, 2015 through 
2019 is $113,785, $109,360, $105,222, $99,406 and $92,579, 
respectively.

Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or 
circumstances indicate that the undiscounted net cash flows to be 
generated by their use over their expected useful lives and eventual 
disposition may be less than their net carrying value. In connection  
with the goodwill impairment review of EPD discussed above, the 
Company determined that certain intangible assets of EPD, primarily 
trademarks and customer lists, were impaired resulting in the recognition 
of a non-cash impairment charge of $43,664. The impairment charge  
is reflected in the goodwill and intangible asset impairment caption  
in the Consolidated Statement of Income and in the other (income) 
expense caption in the Business Segment Information. The fair value  
of EPD’s intangible assets were determined using an income approach 
for the individual intangible assets. Fair value calculated using an 
income approach is classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy 
and requires several assumptions including future sales and operating 
margins expected to be generated from the use of the individual 
intangible asset.

NOTE 8. Financing Arrangements

The Company has a line of credit totaling $2,000,000 through a multi-
currency revolving credit agreement with a group of banks, $1,183,900 
of which was available at June 30, 2014. The credit agreement expires  
in October 2017; however, the Company has the right to request a one-
year extension of the expiration date on an annual basis, which request 
may result in changes to the current terms and conditions of the credit 
agreement. Advances from the credit agreement can be used for general 
corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and for the refinancing  
of existing indebtedness. The credit agreement requires the payment of 
an annual facility fee, the amount of which would increase in the event 
the Company’s credit ratings are lowered. Although a lowering of the 
Company’s credit ratings would likely increase the cost of future debt,  
it would not limit the Company’s ability to use the credit agreement  
nor would it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.

The Company is currently authorized to sell up to $1,850,000 of short-
term commercial paper notes. At June 30, 2014 and 2013, $816,100 and 
$1,331,445 of commercial paper notes were outstanding, respectively.

In addition to commercial paper notes, notes payable includes short-term 
lines of credit and borrowings from foreign banks. At June 30, 2014,  
the Company had $69,949 in lines of credit from various foreign banks, 
$69,924 of which was available at June 30, 2014. Most of these agreements 
are renewed annually. The weighted-average interest rate on notes payable 
during 2014 and 2013 was 0.2 percent and 0.3 percent, respectively.

The Company’s foreign locations in the ordinary course of business  
may enter into financial guarantees through financial institutions which 
enable customers to be reimbursed in the event of nonperformance  
by the Company.

The Company’s credit agreements and indentures governing certain 
debt agreements contain various covenants, the violation of which 
would limit or preclude the use of the applicable agreements for future 
borrowings, or might accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding 
borrowings covered by the applicable agreements. At the Company’s 
present rating level, the most restrictive covenant contained in the 
credit agreements and the indentures provides that the ratio of secured 
debt to net tangible assets be less than 10 percent. As of June 30, 2014, 
the Company does not have any secured debt outstanding. The Company 
is in compliance with all covenants.

and $100,000, respectively. 

LEASE COMMITMENTS – Future minimum rental commitments as  
of June 30, 2014, under non-cancelable operating leases, which  
expire at various dates, are as follows:  2015 – $91,435; 2016 – 
$60,672; 2017 – $40,591; 2018 – $22,126; 2019 – $14,967 and  
after 2019 – $61,810.

Rental expense in 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $131,948, $133,478  
and $124,546, respectively.

NOTE 10. Retirement Benefits

PENSIONS – The Company has noncontributory defined benefit pension 
plans covering eligible employees, including certain employees in 
foreign countries. Plans for most salaried employees provide pay-
related benefits based on years of service. Plans for hourly employees 
generally provide benefits based on flat-dollar amounts and years of 
service. The Company also has arrangements for certain key employees 
which provide for supplemental retirement benefits. In general, the 
Company’s policy is to fund these plans based on legal requirements, 
tax considerations, local practices and investment opportunities. The 
Company also sponsors defined contribution plans and participates  
in government-sponsored programs in certain foreign countries.

The presentation of the amounts recognized on the Consolidated

on a debit (credit) basis and excludes the effect of income taxes.

During 2014, the Company offered a lump-sum distribution to certain 
participants in one of its U.S. defined benefit plans. Included in benefits 
paid in 2014 is $110,000 related to participants who elected to receive  
a lump-sum distribution. No settlement charge was required to be 
recognized.

The assumptions used to measure the benefit obligation for the 
Company’s significant defined benefit plans are:

U.S. defined benefit plans
   Discount rate  
   Average increase in compensation  
Non-U.S. defined benefit plans
   Discount rate  
   Average increase in compensation  

2014

4.05%  
5.12%  

4.52%
5.13%

0.9 to 4.2%   1.5 to 4.59%
2.0 to 6.0%
2.0 to 5.0%  

The discount rate assumption is based on current rates of high-quality 
long-term corporate bonds over the same estimated time period that 
benefit payments will be required to be made. The expected return on 
plan assets assumption is based on the weighted-average expected 
return of the various asset classes in the plans’ portfolio. The asset 
class return is developed using historical asset return performance as 
well as current market conditions such as inflation, interest rates and 
equity market performance.

The weighted-average allocation of the majority of the assets related  
to defined benefit plans is as follows:

The estimated amount of net actuarial loss, prior service cost and 
transition obligation that will be amortized from accumulated other 
comprehensive (loss) into net periodic benefit pension cost in 2015  
is $158,471, $7,668 and $19, respectively.

The weighted-average target asset allocation as of June 30, 2014 is  
41 percent equity securities, 47 percent debt securities and 12 percent 
other investments. The investment strategy for the Company’s 
worldwide defined benefit pension plan assets focuses on achieving 
prudent actuarial funding ratios while maintaining acceptable levels of 
risk in order to provide adequate liquidity to meet immediate and future 
benefit requirements. This strategy requires investment portfolios that 
are broadly diversified across various asset classes and external 
investment managers. Assets held in the U.S. defined benefit plans 
account for approximately 72 percent of the Company’s total defined 
benefit plan assets. The Company’s overall investment strategy with 
respect to the Company’s U.S. defined benefit plans is to opportunistically 
migrate from its traditional mix between growth seeking assets (primarily 
consisting of global public equities in developed and emerging countries 
and hedge fund of fund strategies) and income generating assets (primarily 
consisting of high quality bonds, both domestic and global, emerging 
market bonds, high yield bonds and Treasury Inflation Protected 
Securities) to an allocation more heavily weighted toward income 
generating assets. Over time, long duration fixed income assets are 
being added to the portfolio. These securities are highly correlated  
with the Company’s pension liabilities and will serve to hedge a portion 
of the Company’s interest rate risk. 

The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit plans was 
$4,258,743 and $3,944,921 at June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. 
The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation and  
fair value of plan assets for pension plans with accumulated benefit 
obligations in excess of plan assets were $4,691,350, $4,206,557 and 
$3,443,515, respectively, at June 30, 2014, and $4,351,955, $3,920,218 
and $3,070,157, respectively, at June 30, 2013. The projected benefit 
obligation and fair value of plan assets for pension plans with projected 
benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $4,709,493 and 
$3,459,097, respectively, at June 30, 2014, and $4,381,914 and 
$3,095,942, respectively, at June 30, 2013. 

The Company expects to make cash contributions of approximately  
$63 million to its defined benefit pension plans in 2015, the majority  
of which relates to non-U.S. defined benefit plans. Estimated future 
benefit payments in the five years ending June 30, 2015 through 2019 
are $189,307, $235,993, $219,266, $225,421 and $251,678, respectively 
and $1,391,819 in the aggregate for the five years ending June 30, 2020 
through June 30, 2024.

The assumptions used to measure net periodic benefit cost for the 
Company’s significant defined benefit plans are:

Cash and cash equivalents, which include repurchase agreements and 
other short-term investments, are valued at cost, which approximates 
fair value.

Equity securities are valued at the closing price reported on the active 
market on which the individual securities are traded. U.S. based 
companies include Company stock with a fair value of $167,157 as  
of June 30, 2014 and $126,834 as of June 30, 2013. 

Fixed income securities are valued using both market observable inputs 
for similar assets that are traded on an active market and the closing 
price on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.

Mutual funds are valued using both the closing market price reported  
on the active market on which the fund is traded and market observable 
inputs for similar assets that are traded on an active market and primarily 
consist of equity and fixed income funds. The equity funds primarily 
provide exposure to U.S. and international equities, real estate and 
commodities. The fixed income funds primarily provide exposure to  
high-yield securities and emerging market fixed income instruments.

Common/Collective trusts primarily consist of equity and fixed income 
funds and are valued using a net asset value per share. Common/
Collective trust investments can be redeemed daily and without restriction. 
Redemption of the entire investment balance generally requires a 30-day 
notice period. The equity funds provide exposure to large, mid and small 
cap U.S. equities, international large and small cap equities and emerging 
market equities. The fixed income funds provide exposure to U.S., 
international and emerging market debt securities. 

Limited Partnerships primarily consist of hedge funds valued using  
a net asset value per share and provide exposure to a variety of hedging 
strategies including long/short equity, relative value, event driven and 
global macro. Limited Partnership investments can be redeemed daily 
and without restriction. Redemption of the entire investment balance 
generally requires a 30-day notice period. 

Miscellaneous primarily includes real estate funds, insurance contracts 
held in the asset portfolio of the Company’s non-U.S. defined benefit 
pension plans, and net payables for securities purchased but not settled 
in the asset portfolio of the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension 
plans. Insurance contracts are valued at the present value of future  
cash flows promised under the terms of the insurance contracts.

The primary investment objective of equity securities and equity funds, 
within both the mutual fund and common/collective trust asset class,  
is to obtain capital appreciation in an amount that at least equals 
various market-based benchmarks. The primary investment objective  
of fixed income securities and fixed income funds, within both the 
mutual fund and common/collective trust asset class, is to provide  
for a constant stream of income while preserving capital. The primary 
investment objective of limited partnerships is to achieve capital 
appreciation through an investment program focused on specialized 
investment strategies. The primary investment objective of insurance 
contracts, included in the miscellaneous asset class, is to provide  
a stable rate of return over a specified period of time.

EMPLOYEE SAVINGS PLAN – The Company sponsors an employee  
stock ownership plan (ESOP) as part of its existing savings and 
investment 401(k) plan. The ESOP is available to eligible domestic 
employees. Company stock is used to match contributions made 
by employees to the ESOP up to a maximum of 4.0 percent of an 
employee’s annual compensation. Company contributions to the  
ESOP are generally made in the form of cash and are recorded  
as compensation expense.

$63,441  

$61,067  

$58,067

In addition to shares within the ESOP, as of June 30, 2014, employees 
have elected to invest in 2,510,535 shares of common stock within  
a company stock fund of the savings and investment 401(k) plan.

The Company has a retirement income account (RIA) within the employee 
savings plan. The Company makes a contribution to the participant’s 
RIA each year, the amount of which is based on the participant’s age  
and years of service. Participants do not contribute to the RIA. The 
Company recognized $25,247, $22,046 and $19,372 in expense related 
to the RIA in 2014, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS – The Company provides 
postretirement medical and life insurance benefits to certain retirees 
and eligible dependents. Most plans are contributory, with retiree 
contributions adjusted annually. The plans are unfunded and pay  
stated percentages of covered medically necessary expenses incurred 
by retirees, after subtracting payments by Medicare or other providers 
and after stated deductibles have been met. For most plans, the  
Company has established cost maximums to more effectively control 
future medical costs. The Company has reserved the right to change 
these benefit plans.

Certain employees are covered under benefit provisions that include 
prescription drug coverage for Medicare eligible retirees. The impact  
of the subsidy received under the Medicare Prescription Drug, 
Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 on the Company’s  
other postretirement benefits was immaterial.

OTHER – The Company has established nonqualified deferred 
compensation programs, which permit officers, directors and  
certain management employees annually to elect to defer a portion  
of their compensation, on a pre-tax basis, until their retirement.  
The retirement benefit to be provided is based on the amount of 
compensation deferred, Company matching contributions, and  
earnings on the deferrals. During 2014, 2013 and 2012, the  
Company recorded expense relating to deferred compensation  
of $24,549, $19,182 and $4,499, respectively.

The Company has invested in corporate-owned life insurance policies  
to assist in meeting the obligation under these programs. The policies 
are held in a rabbi trust and are recorded as assets of the Company.

SHARE REPURCHASES – The Company has a program to repurchase  
its common shares. On August 14, 2014, the Board of Directors of  
the Company approved an increase in the overall maximum number  
of shares authorized for repurchase under the program so that, 
beginning on such date, the aggregate number of shares authorized  
for repurchase was 15 million. Subject to this limitation, the Company  
is authorized to repurchase, in any single fiscal year, an amount of 
common shares equal to the greater of 7.5 million shares or five  
percent of the shares outstanding as of the end of the prior fiscal  
year. Repurchases are funded primarily from operating cash flows  
and commercial paper borrowings, and the shares are initially held  
as treasury stock. The number of common shares repurchased at  
the average purchase price follows:

NOTE 12. Stock Incentive Plans

The Company’s 2009 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan provides for the 
granting of share-based incentive awards in the form of nonqualified 
stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock units 
(RSUs) and restricted and unrestricted stock to officers and key 
employees of the Company. The aggregate number of shares authorized 
for issuance under the 2009 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan is 
14,700,000. The Company satisfies share-based incentive award 
obligations by issuing shares of common stock out of treasury, which 
have been repurchased pursuant to the Company’s share repurchase 
program described in Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, 
or through the issuance of previously unissued common stock.

STOCK OPTIONS/SARS – Stock options allow the participant to purchase 
shares of common stock at a price not less than 100 percent of the fair 
market value of the stock on the date of grant. Upon exercise, SARs 
entitle the participant to receive shares of common stock equal to the 
increase in value of the award between the grant date and the exercise 
date. Stock options and SARs are exercisable from one to three years 
after the date of grant and expire no more than 10 years after grant.  

The fair value of each stock option and SAR award granted in 2014,  
2013 and 2012 was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes 
option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Risk-free interest rate  
Expected life of award  
Expected dividend yield of stock  
Expected volatility of stock  
Weighted-average fair value  

2014

2012

0.9%
5.2 yrs
1.6%
37.3%

$32.57  

$24.76  

$20.30

The risk-free interest rate was based on U.S. Treasury yields with a term 
similar to the expected life of the award. The expected life of the award  
was derived by referring to actual exercise and post-vesting employment 
termination experience. The expected dividend yield was based on the 
Company’s historical dividend rate and stock price over a period similar  
to the expected life of the award. The expected volatility of stock was 
derived by referring to changes in the Company’s historical common  
stock prices over a time-frame similar to the expected life of the award.

compensation expense of $49,998, $33,018 and $26,585, respectively, 
relating to stock option and SAR awards. The Company derives a tax 
deduction measured by the excess of the market value over the grant  

price at the date stock-based awards are exercised. The related tax  
benefit is credited to additional capital as the Company is currently  
in a windfall tax benefit position. 

Shares surrendered upon exercise of stock options and SARs:   
2014 – 775,163; 2013 – 1,947,148; 2012 – 321,266.

RSUS – RSUs constitute an agreement to deliver shares of common 
stock to the participant at the end of a vesting period. Generally, the 
RSUs vest and the underlying stock is issued ratably over a three-year 
graded vesting period. Unvested RSUs may not be transferred and do 
not have dividend or voting rights. For each unvested RSU, recipients 
are entitled to receive a dividend equivalent, payable in cash or common 
shares, equal to the cash dividend per share paid to common 
shareholders. 

The fair value of each RSU award granted in 2014, 2013 and 2012 was 
based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the 
date of grant. A summary of the status and changes of shares subject  
to RSU awards and the related average price per share follows:

relating to RSU awards. At June 30, 2014, $18,615 of expense with 
respect to nonvested RSU awards has yet to be recognized and will be 
amortized into expense over a weighted-average period of approximately 
21 months. The total fair value of RSU awards vested during 2014, 2013 
and 2012 was $18,007, $12,488 and $8,642, respectively. The Company 
recognized a tax benefit of $2,509, $976 and $1,673 relating to the 
issuance of common stock for RSU awards that vested during 2014, 
2013 and 2012, respectively.

LTIP/RESTRICTED STOCK – The Company’s Long Term Incentive Plans 
(LTIP) provide for the issuance of unrestricted stock to certain officers 
and key employees based on the attainment of certain goals relating to 
the Company’s revenue growth, earnings per share growth and return 
on invested capital during the 3-year performance period. No dividends 
or dividend equivalents are paid on unearned shares. For awards 
granted prior to the 2010-11-12 LTIP, restricted stock was earned and 
awarded, and an estimated value was accrued, based upon attainment 
of criteria specified in the LTIP over the cumulative years of each 3-year 
plan. The shares of restricted stock issued to plan participants after the 
end of the performance period are entitled to cash dividends and to vote 
their respective shares, but transferability of the restricted stock is 
restricted for 3 years following issuance.

of the restricted shares issued in 2014, 2013, and 2012 was based on 
the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of 
grant. During 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized expense  
of $1,304, $1,137, and $1,200, respectively, related to restricted shares. 

During 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized a tax (cost) 
benefit of $(6,770), $17,395, and $426, respectively, relating to the  
LTIP and restricted shares issued to non-employee members of the 
Board of Directors.

At June 30, 2014, the Company had approximately 14 million common 
shares reserved for issuance in connection with its stock incentive 
plans.

NOTE 13. Shareholders’ Protection Rights Agreement

On January 25, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company  
declared a dividend of one Shareholders’ Right for each common  
share outstanding on February 17, 2007 in relation to the Company’s 
Shareholders Protection Rights Agreement. As of June 30, 2014, 
148,902,813 common shares were reserved for issuance under this 
Agreement. Under certain conditions involving acquisition of, or an  
offer for, 15 percent or more of the Company’s common shares, all 
holders of Shareholders’ Rights would be entitled to purchase one 
common share at an exercise price currently set at $160. In addition,  
in certain circumstances, all holders of Shareholders’ Rights (other  
than the acquiring entity) would be entitled to purchase a number of 
common shares equal to twice the exercise price, or at the option  
of the Board of Directors, to exchange each Shareholders’ Right for one 
common share. The Shareholders’ Rights remain in existence until 
February 17, 2017, unless extended by the Board of Directors or earlier 
redeemed (at one cent per Shareholders’ Right), exercised or exchanged 
under the terms of the agreement. In the event of an unfriendly business 
combination attempt, the Shareholders’ Rights will cause substantial 
dilution to the person attempting the business combination. The 
Shareholders’ Rights should not interfere with any merger or other 
business combination that is in the best interest of the Company and  
its shareholders since the Shareholders’ Rights may be redeemed.

NOTE 14. Research and Development

Research and development costs amounted to $410,132 in 2014, 
$406,613 in 2013 and $365,703 in 2012. These amounts include both 
costs incurred by the Company related to independent research and 
development initiatives as well as costs incurred in connection with 
research and development contracts. Costs incurred in connection  
with research and development contracts amounted to $55,916 in 2014, 
$58,916 in 2013 and $43,658 in 2012. These costs are included in the 
total research and development cost for each of the respective years. 

NOTE 15. Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and  
cash equivalents, marketable securities and other short-term investments, 
long-term investments, and accounts receivable as well as obligations 
under accounts payable, trade, notes payable and long-term debt.  
Due to their short-term nature, the carrying values for cash and cash 
equivalents, marketable securities and other short-term investments, 
accounts receivable, accounts payable, trade and notes payable 
approximate fair value. The carrying value of long-term debt (excluding 
capital leases) and estimated fair value of long-term debt (excluding 
capital leases) at June 30 are as follows:

Carrying value of long-term  
   debt (excluding capital leases) 
Estimated fair value of long-term  
   debt (excluding capital leases)

2013

$1,508,420  

$1,498,025

1,708,723  

1,654,886

The fair value of long-term debt was estimated using discounted cash 
flow analyses based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing 
rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

The Company utilizes derivative and non-derivative financial instruments, 
including forward exchange contracts, costless collar contracts, cross-
currency swap contracts and certain foreign denominated debt designated 
as net investment hedges, to manage foreign currency transaction and 
translation risk. The derivative financial instrument contracts are with 
major investment grade financial institutions and the Company does  
not anticipate any material non-performance by any of the counterparties. 
The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments  
for trading purposes.

The Company’s Euro bonds and Japanese Yen credit facility have  
been designated as a hedge of the Company’s net investment in certain 
foreign subsidiaries. The translation of the Euro bonds and Japanese 
Yen credit facility into U.S. dollars is recorded in accumulated other 
comprehensive income (loss) and remains there until the underlying  
net investment is sold or substantially liquidated.

Derivative financial instruments are recognized on the balance sheet  
as either assets or liabilities and are measured at fair value. Derivatives 
consist of forward exchange, costless collar and cross-currency swap 
contracts the fair value of which is calculated using market observable 
inputs including both spot and forward prices for the same underlying 
currencies. The fair value of the cross-currency swap contracts is 
calculated using a present value cash flow model that has been adjusted 
to reflect the credit risk of either the Company or the counterparty.

Gains or losses on derivatives that are not hedges are adjusted to  
fair value through the cost of sales caption in the Consolidated 
Statement of Income. Gains or losses on derivatives that are hedges  
are adjusted to fair value through accumulated other comprehensive 
income (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheet until the hedged item  
is recognized in earnings.

The location and fair value of derivative financial instruments reported 
in the Consolidated Balance Sheet are as follows:

The cross-currency swap and costless collar contracts are reflected  
on a gross basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The presentation 
of forward contracts is on a net basis, the effect of which is immaterial 
to the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company has not entered into 
any master netting arrangements.

The fair values at June 30, 2014 and 2013 are classified within Level 2 
of the fair value hierarchy. There are no other financial assets or 
liabilities that are marked to market on a recurring basis. Fair values  
are transferred between levels of the fair value hierarchy when facts  
and circumstances indicate that a change in the method of estimating 
the fair value of a financial asset or financial liability is warranted. 

The cross-currency swap contracts have been designated as hedging 
instruments. The forward exchange and costless collar contracts have 
not been designated as hedging instruments and are considered to be 
economic hedges of forecasted transactions.

Gains (losses) on derivative financial instruments that were recorded  
in the Consolidated Statement of Income are as follows:

Forward exchange contracts  
Costless collar contracts  

2014

Gains (losses) on derivative and non-derivative financial instruments 
that were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) in the 
Consolidated Balance Sheet are as follows:

Foreign denominated debt  

2014  

2013

$(14,426)  
7,611  

$(12,622)

There was no ineffectiveness of the cross-currency swap contracts  
or foreign denominated debt, nor were any portion of these financial 
instruments excluded from the effectiveness testing, during 2014,  
2013 and 2012. 

NOTE 16. Contingencies

The Company is involved in various litigation matters arising in the 
normal course of business, including proceedings based on product 
liability claims, workers’ compensation claims and alleged violations of 
various environmental laws. The Company is self-insured in the United 
States for health care, workers’ compensation, general liability and 
product liability up to predetermined amounts, above which third party 
insurance applies. Management regularly reviews the probable outcome 
of these proceedings, the expenses expected to be incurred, the 
availability and limits of the insurance coverage, and the established 
accruals for liabilities. While the outcome of pending proceedings 
cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that any 

liabilities that may result from these proceedings will not have a material 
adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition or results 
of operations.

ENVIRONMENTAL – The Company is currently responsible for 
environmental remediation at various manufacturing facilities presently 
or formerly operated by the Company and has been named as a 
“potentially responsible party,” along with other companies, at off-site 
waste disposal facilities and regional sites.

As of June 30, 2014, the Company had an accrual of $13,625 for 
environmental matters, which are probable and reasonably estimable. 
The accrual is recorded based upon the best estimate of costs to be 
incurred in light of the progress made in determining the magnitude of 
remediation costs, the timing and extent of remedial actions required

The Company’s estimated total liability for environmental matters 
ranges from a minimum of $13.6 million to a maximum of $82.7  
million. The largest range for any one site is approximately $14.6 
million. The actual costs to be incurred by the Company will be 
dependent on final determination of contamination and required 
remedial action, negotiations with governmental authorities with  
respect to cleanup levels, changes in regulatory requirements, 
innovations in investigatory and remedial technologies, effectiveness  
of remedial technologies employed, the ability of other responsible 
parties to pay, and any insurance or other third-party recoveries.

Report of Independent Registered  
Public Accounting Firm 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders  
of Parker-Hannifin Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of 
Parker-Hannifin Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as  
of June 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements  
of income, comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each  
of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2014. We also have 
audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as  
of June 30, 2014, based on criteria established in Internal Control – 
Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring 
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company’s management 
is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective 
internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of  
the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included  
in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over 
Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on 
these financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal 
control over financial reporting based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of  
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to  
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 
are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal  
control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. 
Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test 
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial 
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant 
estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial 
statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial 
reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over 
financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, 
and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness  
of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included 
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in  
the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable 
basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process 
designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal 
executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing  
similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, 
management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance 
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of 

financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally 
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over 
financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) 
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, 
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions  
of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that 
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of 
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being 
made only in accordance with authorizations of management and 
directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance 
regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, 
use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material 
effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial 
reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management 
override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may 
not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of  
any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial 
reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls  
may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the 
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to  
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position  
of Parker-Hannifin Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2014 
and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows  
for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2014, in 
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the  
United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company 
maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control  
over financial reporting as of June 30, 2014, based on the criteria 
established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992)  
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the  
Treadway Commission.

DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP 
Cleveland, Ohio 
August 22, 2014

Management’s Report on  
Internal Control Over  
Financial Reporting

Our management, including the principal executive officer and  
the principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing  
and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting  
(as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)). We 
assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial 
reporting as of June 30, 2014. In making this assessment, we  
used the criteria established by the Committee of Sponsoring 
Organizations of the Treadway Commission in “Internal Control-
Integrated Framework (1992).” We concluded that based on our 
assessment, the Company’s internal control over financial  
reporting was effective as of June 30, 2014.

Deloitte & Touche LLP, the independent registered public  
accounting firm that audited the Company’s consolidated  
financial statements, has issued an attestation report on  
the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as  
of June 30, 2014, which is included herein.

Forward-Looking Statements

Forward-looking statements contained in this and other written and 
oral reports are made based on known events and circumstances at  
the time of release, and as such, are subject in the future to unforeseen 
uncertainties and risks. All statements regarding future performance, 
earnings projections, events or developments are forward-looking 
statements. It is possible that the future performance and earnings 
projections of the Company, including its individual segments, may 
differ materially from current expectations, depending on economic 
conditions within its mobile, industrial and aerospace markets, and  
the Company’s ability to maintain and achieve anticipated benefits 
associated with announced realignment activities, strategic initiatives 
to improve operating margins, actions taken to combat the effects of 
the current economic environment, and growth, innovation and global 
diversification initiatives. A change in the economic conditions in 
individual markets may have a particularly volatile effect on segment 
performance.

Among other factors which may affect future performance are:

•   changes in business relationships with and purchases by or from 
  major customers, suppliers or distributors, including delays or 
  cancellations in shipments, disputes regarding contract terms or 
  significant changes in financial condition, changes in contract cost 
  and revenue estimates for new development programs, and changes  

in product mix;

Donald E. Washkewicz 
Chairman,  
Chief Executive Officer 
and President 

Jon P. Marten 
Executive Vice President –   
Finance & Administration  
and Chief Financial Officer

•   ability to identify acceptable strategic acquisition targets;

•   uncertainties surrounding timing, successful completion or 

integration of acquisitions and similar transactions;

•   the ability to successfully divest businesses planned for divestiture 
  and realize the anticipated benefits of such divestitures;

•   the determination to undertake business realignment activities and 
  the expected costs thereof and, if undertaken, the ability to complete 
  such activities and realize the anticipated cost savings from such 
  activities;

•   the ability to realize anticipated benefits of the consolidation of the 
  Climate & Industrial Controls Group;

•   threats associated with and efforts to combat terrorism;

•   uncertainties surrounding the ultimate resolution of outstanding 

legal proceedings, including the outcome of any appeals;

•   competitive market conditions and resulting effects on sales  
  and pricing;

•   increases in raw material costs that cannot be recovered in  
  product pricing; 

•   the Company’s ability to manage costs related to insurance  
  and employee retirement and health care benefits; and

•   global economic factors, including manufacturing activity, air travel 
  trends, currency exchange rates, difficulties entering new markets 
  and general economic conditions such as inflation, deflation, interest 
  rates and credit availability.

The Company makes these statements as of the date of the filing of  
its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014,  
and undertakes no obligation to update them unless otherwise required 
by law.
