Fiscal year 2013 has been a year of transition. Coming 
off a record year buoyed by strong demand from 
the North American oil and gas industry, we have 
experienced reduced volumes and an unfavorable 
product mix. However, despite the impact of softer 
demand from certain sectors, we have been able 
to maintain profitability through our exposure to 
diverse customers, markets and geographies. At the 
same time we have been able to support our strategic 
product development initiatives that will add to the 
Company’s growth as well as to bring on stream a new 
plant in India that already is operating profitably. And 
finally, the Board of Directors announced in the fourth 
quarter a senior management succession plan that 
had been underway for several years.

Again, we owe a great deal to our associates  
around the world who contributed to the success 
of this fiscal year. While our financial performance 
softened, their commitment to the achievement of our 
strategic goals did not. We are a stronger company 
and have a bright future ahead because of their hard 
work and dedication.

Financial Results 

Our financial results had a hard time keeping pace 
with the record sales and earnings performance 
for the previous year. Net sales for fiscal year 2013 
were $285.3 million compared to $355.9 million in 
fiscal year 2012. Net earnings for the current fiscal 
year were $3.9 million, or $0.34 per diluted share in 
contrast to $26.7 million, or $2.31 per diluted share 
for the prior year. 

The softening that started in the fourth quarter of 
fiscal 2012 continued sequentially throughout fiscal 
year 2013 as backlogs declined to the lowest point  
in several years.

Gross profit, as a percent of sales, for the current fiscal 
year was 28.1 percent compared to 34.2 percent for 
the previous year. Margins narrowed as a result of 
lower volumes as well as an unfavorable product mix. 

Spending on marketing, engineering and administra-
tive (MEA) expenses were held to $67.9 million, or 
23.8 percent of sales compared to $73.1 million, or 
20.5 percent of sales a year ago. The decrease in MEA 
spending year-over-year was primarily attributable to 
stock-based and incentive/bonus compensation.

In the fiscal fourth quarter, the Company determined 
that it was required to take an impairment charge of 
$1.4 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, representing 
the remaining intangibles and fixed assets of its Italian 
distribution entity for which the Company expects to 
terminate the distribution agreement. In fiscal year 2012 
the Company took an impairment charge of $3.7 million, 
or $0.32 per diluted share, for the write down of goodwill 
at an Italian manufacturing operation due to softness in 
the Italian megayacht market.

In addition, the decision was made to reduce head count 
at our Belgian production facility and to implement 
other restructuring initiatives that led to a charge of 
$708 thousand, or $0.06 per diluted share in the 2013 
fourth fiscal quarter. As the result of the timing of the 
negotiations, an additional charge of $1.1 million, or  
$0.09 per diluted share, will be taken in the first quarter 
of fiscal year 2014.

We maintained our strong financial condition during 
the year, generating cash of $24.5 million. We invested 
$6.6 million in capital expenditures in fiscal year 2013 
compared to $13.7 million in the prior year. Dividends of 
$4.1 million were paid compared to $3.9 million last year.

With narrowing margins and declining volumes we were 
not able to earn our cost of capital in fiscal 2013. 

OPeRatiOns  ReVieW  

Our diversity continued to serve us well during the past 
year, allowing us to offset some of the negative impact of 
challenging conditions in the North American oil and gas 
industry and the global megayacht market. While demand 
in the domestic pressure-pumping sector subsided due 
to an overcapacity condition in pressure-pumping rigs 
and an overhang in supply of natural gas, we experienced 
strong demand for our transmission systems from Asia 
as that region began to develop its own energy resources. 
As a result, China became our second largest geographic 
market behind the United States. Further, despite a 
continuing recession in the global megayacht market, we 
benefited from solid demand in the commercial marine 
markets around the world, notably the U.S. Gulf Coast, 
Brazil and the Pacific Basin. Activity in our industrial 
markets also saw an improvement during the year while 
demand for our airport rescue and fire fighting and legacy 
military transmission systems remained steady.

At the end of the year we announced the establishment of 
a 35,000-square foot production facility at Swarnabhoomi, 
near Chennai, India. This plant, which is producing 
industrial clutches and power take-offs for global demand, 
is operating profitably. Other products will be placed into 
production at this location in the future.

anticipated to hold at current levels. Airport 
rescue and fire fighting transmission systems will 
remain steady. Industrial markets are expected to 
show modest improvement during the year aided 
by the addition of our new plant in India. 

Demand for pressure-pumping transmission 
systems is expected to improve as the year 
progresses. Oil and gas activity in China is 
anticipated to maintain its high rate of demand, 
while in North America shipments of transmission 
systems should improve during the second half of 
the fiscal year.

Looking beyond fiscal year 2014, we anticipate 
continued growth in our energy, marine and 
industrial markets. As previously indicated, we 
are working on innovative and differentiating 
product and market development projects that 
will enhance our revenue and earnings prospects 
in the future.

ManageMent successiOn

At its meeting held on June 21, 2013, the Board  
of Directors announced that John H. Batten had 
been elected President – Chief Executive Officer  
of the Company effective November 1, 2013.  
The Board also announced that Michael E. Batten 
would become non-executive Chairman of  
the Board effective the same date and that he  
would retire from active employment effective 
December 31, 2013.

In effect for several years, the succession plan 
has developed a strong, experienced and stable 
leadership team that will expand global revenues 
and enhance shareholder value in the years ahead.

OutlOOk

We approach fiscal year 2014 with cautious 
optimism. Our backlog of orders to be shipped in 
the next six months as of June 30, 2013, totaled 
$66.8 million compared to $98.7 million the 
previous year and $64.9 million as of March 
31, 2013. The quarter-to-quarter sequential 
improvement in our backlog represents the first 
increase in seven quarters. And we anticipate an 
improving environment as we move through the 
balance of the year.

As noted above, the first fiscal quarter of 2014 will 
be impacted by a charge related to restructuring 
and reorganizing our operations for the future. 

The macro economic forecasts for Europe, the 
United States and the emerging economies 
suggest continued slow or moderating growth. 
Against this backdrop we see demand from the 
megayacht marine sector continuing to languish 
while activity in the commercial marine markets 
will continue to show strength during the year. 
Demand for military and coastal fast craft is

As anticipated, declining demand in the pressure-pumping 

sector of the North American oil & gas industry drove sales 

of our 8500 transmission system significantly lower this 

year. The decline in North America was tempered somewhat 

by the growing demand for the system in China, where the 

pressure-pumping market continues to develop at a healthy 

pace, and our 8500 transmission system is leading the way. 

With growth in Asia and potential in Latin America, alongside 

the excellent performance of our newly released 7500 

transmission, we remain very optimistic about the  

medium- and long-term prospects in this sector. 

The global Airport Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) market 

softened slightly this year as projects, particularly in South 

America, were delayed due to funding issues. Nevertheless, 

we remain confident in the continued success of our current 

product line and the on-going development of the next 

generation 4001 Series ARFF transmission.

Our legacy military business remained stable this fiscal year. 

However, as the military presence in Iraq and Afghanistan 

winds down, these historically high levels will not be 

sustainable in the coming years. We continue to pursue  

new military opportunities with domestic agencies.

industRial pROducts

After a strong rebound in our global industrial markets in fiscal 2012, the revival 

in demand slowed to a lesser pace in fiscal 2013. Overall, our industrial products 

sales moderated. Contributing to the decline was the drop off in oil field equipment 

construction, with the exception of Australia where our PTO sales grew nicely in their 

strengthening oil and gas sector. Sales for our hydraulic PTO line continued at a healthy 

pace, globally, as we introduced new products to the market. 

Vigorous demand in Asia, Australia, Africa and the Middle East supports our optimism 

for the near term. Driving the new growth in Asia are rail service vehicles, as China 

builds up its high-speed train network, and the development of oil fields. And in Taiwan, 

continued construction of flood-pumping stations also drove a healthy demand for our 

clutch and PTO products. 

This year we established a greater presence in India, with the opening of a new facility 

south of Chennai, and we expect to expand our penetration in the region in the coming 

years. Finally, in Africa and the Middle East our products saw steady demand for critical 

irrigation applications. 

In general, demand from irrigation and pumping applications drove growth in the PTO 

and industrial gearbox lines. Our solid reputation for quality, global service and new 

product development for our industrial product line will continue to produce growth 

opportunities for the future.

PART I

ITEM 1. B USINESS

Twin Disc was incorporated under the laws of the state of Wisconsin in 1918. Twin Disc designs, manufactures and sells marine 
and heavy duty off highway power transmission equipment. Products offered include: marine transmissions, surface drives, 
propellers and boat management systems as well as power-shift transmissions, hydraulic torque converters, power take-offs, 
industrial clutches and controls systems. The Company sells its products to customers primarily in the pleasure craft, commercial 
and military marine markets as well as in the energy and natural resources, government and industrial markets. The Company’s 
worldwide sales to both domestic and foreign customers are transacted through a direct sales force and a distributor network. 
The products described above have accounted for more than 90% of revenues in each of the last three fiscal years.

Most of the Company’s products are machined from cast iron, forgings, cast aluminum and bar steel which generally are available 
from multiple sources and which are believed to be in adequate supply.

The Company has pursued a policy of applying for patents in both the United States and certain foreign countries on inventions 
made in the course of its development work for which commercial applications are considered probable. The Company regards 
its patents collectively as important but does not consider its business dependent upon any one of such patents.

The business is not considered to be seasonal except to the extent that employee vacations are taken mainly in the months of July 
and August, curtailing production during that period.

The Company’s products receive direct widespread competition, including from divisions of other larger independent manufac-
turers. The Company also competes for business with parts manufacturing divisions of some of its major customers. The primary 
competitive factors for the Company’s products are design, technology, performance, price, service and availability. The Com-
pany’s top ten customers accounted for approximately 45% of the Company’s consolidated net sales during the year ended June 
30, 2013. There was one customer, Sewart Supply, Inc., an authorized distributor of the Company, that accounted for 10% or more 
of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2013.

Unfilled open orders for the next six months of $66,765,000 at June 30, 2013 compares to $98,746,000 at June 30, 2012. The 
Company saw a decline in orders by oil and gas customers for its 8500 transmission system as current demand has softened for 
new high-horsepower rigs due to the North American natural gas supply overhang and lower prices. Since orders are subject 
to cancellation and rescheduling by the customer, the six month order backlog is considered more representative of operating 
conditions than total backlog. However, as procurement and manufacturing “lead times” change, the backlog will increase or 
decrease, and thus it does not necessarily provide a valid indicator of the shipping rate. Cancellations are generally the result of 
rescheduling activity and do not represent a material change in backlog.

Management recognizes that there are attendant risks that foreign governments may place restrictions on dividend payments 
and other movements of money, but these risks are considered minimal due to the political relations the United States maintains 
with the countries in which the Company operates or the relatively low investment within individual countries. No material por-
tion of the Company’s business is subject to renegotiation of profits or termination of contracts at the election of the Government.

Engineering and development costs include research and development expenses for new product development and major im-
provements to existing products, and other costs for ongoing efforts to refine existing products. Research and development costs 
charged to operations totaled $3,058,000, $2,657,000 and $2,475,000 in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Total engineer-
ing and development costs were $9,396,000, $9,508,000 and $8,776,000 in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Compliance with federal, state and local provisions regulating the discharge of materials into the environment, or otherwise 
relating to the protection of the environment, is not anticipated to have a material effect on capital expenditures, earnings or the 
competitive position of the Company.

The number of persons employed by the Company at June 30, 2013, was 990.

ITEM 1A. RISK F ACTORS

The Company’s business involves risk. The following information about these risks should be considered carefully together  
with other information contained in this report. The risks described below are not the only risks the Company faces. Additional 
risks not currently known, deemed immaterial or that could apply to any issuer may also result in adverse results for the

U.S. dollars, a significant portion of our sales and operating costs are realized in euros and other foreign currencies. The Com-

revenues and incur expenses. Significant long-term fluctuations in relative currency values, in particular a significant change in

upon the strength of those markets and oil prices.

Although the Company’s financial results are reported in 

 In recent years, the Company has seen a significant growth in the sales of its 
products that are used in oil and energy-related markets. The growth in these markets has been spurred by the rise in oil prices 
and the global demand for oil. In addition, there has been a substantial increase in capital investment by companies in these mar-
kets. In fiscal 2009, a significant decrease in oil prices, the demand for oil and capital investment in the oil and energy markets 
had an adverse effect on the sales of these products and ultimately on the Company’s profitability. While this market recovered 
to historically high levels in fiscal 2011 and 2012, the Company has experienced a softening in demand through fiscal 2013. The 
cyclical nature of the global oil and gas market presents the ongoing possibility of a severe cutback in demand, which would cre-

downturn or weakness in overall economic activity or fluctuations in those other factors could have a material adverse 
effect on the Company’s overall financial performance.

 Historically, sales of many of the products that the Company manufac-

tures and sells have been subject to cyclical variations caused by changes in general economic conditions and other factors. In 
particular, the Company sells its products to customers primarily in the pleasure craft, commercial and military marine mar-
kets, as well as in the energy and natural resources, government and industrial markets. The demand for the products may be 
impacted by the strength of the economy generally, governmental spending and appropriations, including security and defense 
outlays, fuel prices, interest rates, as well as many other factors. Adverse economic and other conditions may cause the Com-

ages of raw castings and forgings used in the manufacturing of its products.

 With the continued development of certain 
developing economies, in particular China and India, the global demand for steel has risen significantly in recent years. The 
Company selects its suppliers based on a number of criteria, and we expect that they will be able to support our growing needs. 
However, there can be no assurance that a significant increase in demand, capacity constraints or other issues experienced by 
the Company’s suppliers will not result in shortages or delays in their supply of raw materials to the Company. If the Company 
were to experience a significant or prolonged shortage of critical components from any of its suppliers, particularly those who 
are sole sources, and could not procure the components from other sources, the Company would be unable to meet its production

or services were to terminate its relationship with the Company, or otherwise cease supplying raw materials, component parts,

could adversely affect profitability.

 As a manufacturer of highly engineered products, the performance, reliability and produc-
tivity of the Company’s products is one of its competitive advantages. While the Company prides itself on putting in place proce-
dures to ensure the quality and performance of its products and suppliers, a significant quality or product issue, whether due to 
design, performance, manufacturing or supplier quality issue, could lead to warranty actions, scrapping of raw materials, finished 
goods or returned products, the deterioration in a customer relationship, or other action that could adversely affect warranty and

generate sales and meet customer demand.

 The majority of the Company’s manufacturing, based on fiscal 2013’s sales, came 

from its two facilities in Racine, Wisconsin. If operations at these facilities were to be disrupted as a result of significant equip-
ment failures, natural disasters, power outages, fires, explosions, adverse weather conditions or other reasons, the Company’s 
business and results of operations could be adversely affected. Interruptions in production would increase costs and reduce 
sales. Any interruption in production capability could require the Company to make substantial capital expenditures to remedy 
the situation, which could negatively affect its profitability and financial condition. The Company maintains property damage 
insurance which it believes to be adequate to provide for reconstruction of its facilities and equipment, as well as business inter-
ruption insurance to mitigate losses resulting from any production interruption or shutdown caused by an insured loss. However, 
any recovery under this insurance policy may not offset the lost sales or increased costs that may be experienced during the 
disruption of operations. Lost sales may not be recoverable under the policy and long-term business disruptions could result 
in a loss of customers. If this were to occur, future sales levels and costs of doing business, and therefore profitability, could be

condition.

 Beginning in 2008 and continuing into 2010, general worldwide economic conditions experienced a downturn due 

to the combined effects of the subprime lending crisis, general credit market crisis, collateral effects on the finance and banking 
industries, slower economic activity, decreased consumer confidence, reduced corporate profits and capital spending, adverse 
business conditions and liquidity concerns. While some recovery was seen in 2011 through 2013, these conditions made it 
difficult for customers, vendors and the Company to accurately forecast and plan future business activities, and caused U.S. and 
foreign businesses to slow spending on products, which delayed and lengthened sales cycles. These conditions led to declining 
revenues in several of the Company’s divisions in fiscal 2009 and 2010. The Company’s revolving credit facilities and senior notes 
agreement require it to maintain specified quarterly financial covenants such as a minimum consolidated net worth amount, a 
minimum EBITDA, as defined, for the most recent four fiscal quarters of $11,000,000 and a funded debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.0 
or less. At June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants. Based on its annual financial plan, the 
Company believes that it will generate sufficient EBITDA levels throughout fiscal 2014 in order to maintain compliance with its fi-
nancial covenants. However, as with all forward-looking information, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the 
planned results in future periods especially due to the significant uncertainties flowing from the current economic environment. 
If the Company is not able to achieve these objectives and to meet the required covenants under the agreements, the Company 
may require forbearance from its existing lenders in the form of waivers and/or amendments of its credit facilities or be required 
to arrange alternative financing. Failure to obtain relief from covenant violations or to obtain alternative financing, if necessary,

This review uses historical results, projected future operating results based upon approved business plans, eligible carryforward 
periods, tax planning opportunities and other relevant considerations. Adverse changes in the profitability and financial outlook 
in the U.S. or foreign jurisdictions may require the creation of a valuation allowance to reduce our net deferred tax assets. Such 
changes could result in material non-cash expenses in the period in which the changes are made and could have a material ad-
verse impact on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

Performance Graph 

The following table compares total shareholder return over the last five fiscal years to the Standard & Poor’s 500 Machinery 
(Industrial) Index and the Russell 2000 Index. The S&P 500 Machinery (Industrial) Index consists of a broad range of manufac-
turers. The Russell 2000 Index consists of a broad range of 2,000 companies. The Company believes, because of the similarity of 
its business with those companies contained in the S&P 500 Machinery (Industrial) Index, that comparison of shareholder return 
with this index is appropriate. Total return values for the Corporation’s common stock, the S&P 500 Machinery (Industrial) Index 
and the Russell 2000 Index were calculated based upon an assumption of a $100 investment on June 30, 2008, and based upon 
cumulative total return values assuming reinvestment of dividends on a quarterly basis.

Fiscal 2013 Compared to Fiscal 2012

Net Sales

Net sales for fiscal 2013 decreased 19.8%, or $70.6 million, to $285.3 million from a record $355.9 million in fiscal 2012. 
Compared to fiscal 2012, on average, the euro and Swiss franc weakened against the U.S. dollar. The net translation effect of this 
on foreign operations was to decrease revenues by approximately $4.0 million versus the prior year, before eliminations. The 
decrease in sales continued to primarily be driven by lower demand from customers in the pressure-pumping sector of the North 
American oil and gas market. Offsetting weakness in this market was higher demand from customers in the North American and 
Asian commercial marine markets. Sales to customers serving the global megayacht market remained at historical lows, while de-
mand remained steady for equipment used in the airport rescue and fire fighting (ARFF), and military markets. Sales to custom-
ers in China increased approximately 46% in fiscal 2013 to $29.1 million, representing 10.2% of total fiscal 2013 sales.

In fiscal 2013, sales at our manufacturing segment were down 24.5% versus the prior fiscal year. Compared to fiscal 2012, on 
average, the euro and Swiss franc weakened against the U.S. dollar. The net translation effect of this on foreign manufacturing 
operations was to decrease revenues for the manufacturing segment by approximately $2.8 million versus the prior year, before 
eliminations. In fiscal 2013, our U.S. manufacturing operation saw a decrease of roughly 29% in sales versus fiscal 2012. The 
primary driver for this decrease was the decrease in shipments of transmissions and related products for the North American 
oil and gas markets. This was only partially offset by an increase in commercial marine transmission shipments. The Company’s 
Italian manufacturing operations, which have been adversely impacted by the softness in the European megayacht and indus-
trial markets, experienced a 12.5% decrease compared to the prior fiscal year. Approximately one-third of this decrease can be 
attributed to unfavorable foreign currency translation, with the majority of the remaining decrease due to continued softness and 
timing of shipments to the Italian megayacht market. The Company’s Belgian manufacturing operation, which also continued to 
be adversely impacted by the softness in the global megayacht market, saw an approximately 15% decrease in sales versus the 
prior fiscal year. The Company’s Swiss manufacturing operation, which supplies customized propellers for the global megayacht 
and patrol boat markets, experienced an 11.1% decrease in sales. 

In fiscal 2013, our distribution segment experienced a slight increase of roughly 1% in sales compared to fiscal 2012. The Com-
pany’s distribution operations in Singapore continued to experience record shipments for marine transmission products for use 
in various commercial applications. This operation saw a 33.1% increase in sales versus the prior fiscal year. In fiscal 2013, ap-
proximately 45% of this operation’s sales were to customers in China. The Company’s distribution operation in the Northwest of 
the United States and Southwest of Canada experienced a 46% decrease in sales due to continued softness in the Canadian oil and 
gas market. The Company’s distribution operation in Italy, which provides boat accessories and propulsion systems for the plea-
sure craft market, continued to experience historic lows due to continued weakness in the global pleasure craft and megayacht

markets. The Company’s distribution operation in Australia, which provides boat accessories, propulsion and marine transmis-
sion systems for the pleasure craft market, saw a decrease in sales of just over 16%.

Net sales for the Company’s largest product market, marine transmission and propulsion systems, were up 11.4% compared 
to the prior fiscal year. The majority of the growth was experienced in the first half of fiscal 2013 as the Company experienced 
increased demand in the global commercial marine market, which more than offset continued weakness in the global pleasure 
craft market. Sales of the Company’s boat management systems manufactured at our Italian operation and servicing the global 
megayacht market were down approximately 30% versus the prior fiscal year, as the European megayacht market continued 
to experience softness in demand. In the off-highway transmission market, the year-over-year decrease of just over 50% can 
be attributed primarily to decreased North American sales of the transmission systems for the oil and gas markets. In addition, 
demand for transmission systems for the military market and vehicular transmissions remained steady. The decrease experi-
enced in the Company’s industrial products of roughly 11% was due to decreased sales into the agriculture, mining and general 
industrial markets, primarily in the North American and Italian markets, as well as decreased activity related to oil field markets.

Geographically, sales to the U.S. and Canada represented roughly 49% of consolidated sales for fiscal 2013 compared to 59% in 
fiscal 2012. This decrease was primarily driven by the softness of the North American pressure-pumping market in fiscal 2013, 
only partially offset by growing demand in the U.S. Gulf Coast region for commercial marine transmission systems. Fiscal 2013 
proved to be another milestone year for our global sales, as China became our second largest end market, after the U.S. overall 
sales into the Asian Pacific market represented approximately 27% of sales in fiscal 2013, compared to just over 18% in fiscal 
2012. See Note J of the Notes to the consolidated financial statements for more information on the Company’s business segments 
and foreign operations. 

The elimination for net intra-segment and inter-segment sales decreased $8.0 million, or 8.1%, from $98.7 million in fiscal 2012 
to $90.7 million in fiscal 2013. Year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates had a net unfavorable impact of $0.6 million on 
Gross Profit
net intra-segment and inter-segment sales.

In fiscal 2013, gross profit decreased $41.6 million, or 34.2%, to $80.0 million. Gross profit as a percentage of sales decreased 
610 basis points in fiscal 2013 to 28.1%, compared to 34.2% in fiscal 2012. The table below summarizes the gross profit trend by

There were a number of factors that impacted the Company’s overall gross margin rate in fiscal 2013. Gross margin for the year 
was unfavorably impacted by lower volumes, unfavorable product mix, higher domestic pension expense, higher warranty ex-
pense and unfavorable manufacturing absorption. The Company estimates the net unfavorable impact of lower volumes on gross 
margin in fiscal 2013 was approximately $33.7 million. The unfavorable shift in product mix related to the softening experienced 
in the Company’s oil and gas transmission business had an estimated unfavorable impact of $7.6 million. Domestic pension 
expense included in cost of goods sold increased from $0.2 million in fiscal 2012 to $1.3 million in fiscal 2013. In addition, war-
ranty expense increased by $1.3 million from $3.6 million in fiscal 2012 to $4.9 in fiscal 2013 (for additional information on the 
Marketing, Engineering and Administrative (ME
Company’s warranty expense, see Note F of the Notes to the consolidated financial statements).

The year-over-year net remaining decrease in ME&A expenses of $1.3 million for the year primarily relates to efforts to control 
Restructuring of Operations
global ME&A expenses in light of the current softness in demand experienced in certain of the Company’s markets.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company recorded a pre-tax restructuring charge of $0.7 million related to a work-
force reduction at its Belgian operation and the elimination of a Corporate officer position. The Belgian charge consisted of the 
minimum legal indemnity for 22 manufacturing employees, as negotiations with the workforce were ongoing as of June 30, 2013. 
Subsequently, negotiations were completed in July 2013, resulting in an additional restructuring charge of approximately $1.1 
million to be recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. During fiscal 2013, the Company made no cash payments, resulting in an 
Impairment Charge
accrual balance at June 30, 2013, of $0.7 million.

In connection with preparing its financial statements for fiscal 2013, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1.4 mil-
lion, or $0.12 per diluted share, which represents the remaining intangibles and fixed assets of its Italian distribution entity for 
which the Company committed to a plan to exit the distribution agreement and entered negotiations to sell the inventory back to 
the parent supplier. This decision triggered an impairment review of the long lived assets at this entity, resulting in the impair-
ment charge of $1.4 million representing a complete impairment of the remaining intangibles ($1.3 million) and fixed assets 
($0.1 million) for this entity. In the prior year, the Company took an impairment charge of $3.7 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, 
Interest Expense
for the write-down of goodwill at an Italian manufacturing operation due to softness in the Italian megayacht market. 

Interest expense of $1.4 million for the fiscal 2013 was down slightly versus fiscal 2012. Total interest on the Company’s $40 
million revolving credit facility (“revolver”) decreased 6% to $0.4 million in fiscal 2013. The decrease can be attributed to an 
overall decrease in the average borrowings year-over-year and a lower interest rate on the revolver. The average borrowing on 
the revolver, computed monthly, decreased to $19.8 million in fiscal 2013, compared to $20.4 million in the prior fiscal year. The 
interest rate on the revolver decreased from a range of 1.74% to 2.09% in the prior fiscal year to a range of 1.70% to 1.84% in 
the current year. The interest expense on the Company’s $25 million Senior Note decreased $0.2 million or 21%, at a fixed rate of 
Other, Net
6.05%, to $0.8 million, due to a lower remaining principal balance.

For the fiscal 2013 full year, Other, net declined by $0.7 million due primarily to unfavorable exchange movements related to the 
Income Taxes
euro, Canadian dollar and Swiss franc.

The effective tax rate for the twelve months of fiscal 2013 was 54.0 percent, which is significantly higher than the prior year rate 
of 39.8 percent. Both years were impacted by non-deductible losses in certain foreign jurisdictions that are subject to a valuation 
allowance, as well as non-deductible impairment charges. Adjusting for these non-deductible items, the fiscal 2013 rate would 
have been 35.0 percent compared to 33.3 percent for fiscal 2012. The effective rate for the fiscal 2013 fourth quarter was 89.2 
percent compared to 76.6 percent for the same period last fiscal year. Adjusting both for these non-deductible items results in 
rates of 30.0 percent for the fiscal 2013 fourth quarter and 37.8 percent for the fiscal 2012 fourth quarter. The fiscal 2013 fourth 
quarter rate was favorably impacted by a favorable change in Italian tax law of $0.4 million.

The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not 
be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the tax provision in the period of change. In 
determining whether a valuation allowance is required, the Company takes into account such factors as prior earnings history, 
expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood 
of realization of a deferred tax asset. During fiscal 2013, the Company continued to incur operating losses in certain foreign 
jurisdictions where the loss carryforward period is unlimited. The Company has evaluated the realizability of the net deferred tax 
assets related to these jurisdictions and concluded that based primarily upon recent losses in these jurisdictions and failure to 
achieve targeted levels of improvement, a full valuation allowance continues to be necessary. Therefore, the company recorded a 
net reduction in valuation allowance of $0.1 million. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future 
Order Rates
operations will generate sufficient taxable income and foreign source income to realize the remaining deferred tax assets.

As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s backlog of orders scheduled for shipment during the next six months (six-month backlog) 
was $66.8 million, or approximately 32% lower than the six-month backlog of $98.7 million as of June 30, 2012. The decrease in 
backlog is primarily a result of decreased orders by North American oil and gas customers for the Company’s 8500 transmission 
system as rig operators adjust to the natural gas supply overhang and lower prices.

Fiscal 2012 Compared to Fiscal 2011

Net Sales

Net sales increased $45.5 million, or 14.7%, in fiscal 2012. The year-over-year movement in foreign exchange rates resulted in a 
net favorable translation effect on sales of $0.4 million in fiscal 2012 compared to fiscal 2011.

In fiscal 2012, sales for our worldwide manufacturing operations, before eliminating intra-segment and inter-segment sales, 
were higher by $57.5 million, or 21.5%, than in the prior fiscal year. Year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates had a 
net unfavorable impact on sales of $0.6 million. In fiscal 2012, our domestic manufacturing operation saw continued growth, 
with a 25.9% increase in sales versus fiscal 2011. The primary driver for this increase was the sale of transmissions and related 
products for the North American and Asian oil and gas markets as well as increased commercial marine transmission shipments. 
The Company’s Italian manufacturing operations, which continued to be adversely impacted by the softness in the European 
megayacht market in fiscal 2012, experienced a 4.1% decrease in sales compared to the prior fiscal year. The Company’s Belgian 
manufacturing operation saw a 28.4% increase in sales versus the prior year, although it continued to be adversely impacted by 
the softness in the global megayacht market. The Company’s Swiss manufacturing operation, which supplies customized propel-
lers for the global megayacht and patrol boat markets, experienced a 10.7% decrease in sales compared to the prior fiscal year, 
primarily due to the impact of continued softness in the global megayacht market as well as the timing of shipments for the  
patrol boat market.

Our distribution segment, buoyed by strong demand in Asia and the global oil and gas markets, experienced a slight increase of 
$0.9 million, or 0.7%, in sales in fiscal 2012 compared to fiscal 2011’s record results. Compared to fiscal 2011, on average, the 
Asian currencies strengthened against the U.S. dollar. The net translation effect of this on foreign distribution operations was 
to increase revenues for the distribution segment by approximately $1.5 million versus the prior year, before eliminations. The 
Company’s distribution operations in Singapore continued to experience strong demand for marine transmission products for 
use in various commercial applications as well as growing demand in the Asia pressure-pumping market. This operation saw a 
3.2% increase in sales versus the same period a year ago, and set a new sales record. The Company’s distribution operation in the 
Northwest of the United States and Southwest of Canada experienced a 1% decline from fiscal 2011’s record levels, and contin-
ued to benefit from the strength in the Canadian oil and gas market through most of fiscal 2012. The Company’s distribution op-
eration in Italy, which provides boat accessories and propulsion systems for the pleasure craft market, saw an increase in sales of 
41.3% after several years of decline due to continued weakness in the Italian megayacht market. The Company’s distribution op-
eration in Australia, which provides boat accessories, propulsion and marine transmission systems for the pleasure craft market, 
saw an increase in sales of 6.3%, due to improving market conditions, including sales of components parts for the Company’s new 
Express Joystick System® that were shipped in fiscal 2012. The Company’s joint venture in Japan, which sells large marine trans-
missions for commercial applications throughout Asia, experienced a decrease of nearly 25% in sales in fiscal 2012 compared to 
fiscal 2011. As reported in the Company’s second fiscal quarter’s results, this decrease was primarily a result of the impact of the 
Japanese tsunami on this operation, as our joint venture partner’s production facility was impacted by power shortages as well as 
delayed shipments from suppliers. These issues were substantially resolved in the second fiscal quarter.

Net sales for the Company’s largest product market, marine transmission and propulsion systems, were up 8% compared to 
the prior fiscal year. The majority of the growth was experienced in the second half of fiscal 2012 as the Company experienced 
increased demand in the global commercial marine market, which more than offset continued weakness in the global pleasure 
craft market. Sales of the Company’s boat management systems manufactured at our Italian operation and servicing the global 
megayacht market, were down approximately 14% versus the prior fiscal year, as the European megayacht market continued 
to experience softness in demand. In the off-highway transmission market, the year-over-year increase of just over 20% can be 
attributed primarily to increased sales of the 8500 and 7500 transmission systems for the oil and gas markets. In addition, sales 
of transmission systems for the military market and vehicular transmissions were up double-digit percentages versus the prior 
fiscal year. The increase experienced in the Company’s industrial products of roughly 34% was due to increased sales into the 
agriculture, mining and general industrial markets, primarily in the North American and Italian markets, as well as increased 
activity related to oil field markets.

Geographically, sales to the U.S. and Canada represented roughly 59% of consolidated sales for fiscal 2012 compared to 55% in 
fiscal 2011. This growth was primarily driven by the strength of the North American pressure-pumping market through the first 
three fiscal quarters of fiscal 2012 as well as growing demand in the U.S. Gulf Coast region for commercial marine transmission 
systems in the second half of the fiscal year. Fiscal 2012 proved to be a milestone year for our global sales, as Asia became our 
second largest end market, surpassing Europe. In particular, the Company experienced triple-digit growth in sales to the Chinese 
market. See Note J for more information on the Company’s business segments and foreign operations. 

The elimination for net intra-segment and inter-segment sales increased $12.9 million, or 15.1%, from $85.8 million in fiscal 
2011 to $98.7 million in fiscal 2012. Year-over-year changes in foreign exchange rates had a net unfavorable impact of $0.5 mil-
lion on net intra-segment and inter-segment sales.

There were a number of factors that impacted the Company’s overall gross margin rate in fiscal 2012. Gross margin for the year 
was favorably impacted by higher volumes, favorable product mix and lower domestic pension expense, partially offset by higher 
material costs and surcharges, and unfavorable manufacturing absorption primarily in the fiscal fourth quarter. The Company 
estimates the net favorable impact of higher volumes on gross margin in fiscal 2012 was approximately $21.7 million. The favor-
able shift in product mix related to the Company’s oil and gas transmission business had an estimated impact of $2.0 million. 
Domestic pension expense included in cost of goods sold decreased from $1.9 million in fiscal 2011 to $0.2 million in fiscal 2012. 
In addition, warranty expense as a percentage of sales decreased from 1.27% in fiscal 2011 to 1.02% in fiscal 2012 (for additional 
information on the Company’s warranty expense, see Note F of the Notes to the consolidated financial statements). The decrease 
in warranty expense as a percentage of sales can be attributed to an increase in volume and an overall reduction in specific  
warranty campaigns. In addition, the year-over-year movement in foreign exchange rates, primarily driven by movements in  
the Euro and Asian currencies, resulted in a net favorable translation effect on gross profit of $0.8 million in fiscal 2012  
Marketing, Engineering and Administrative (ME
compared to fiscal 2011.

Marketing, engineering, and administrative (ME&A) expenses remained relatively flat at $73.1 million in fiscal 2012. As a per-
centage of sales, ME&A expenses decreased by 300 basis points to 20.5% in fiscal 2012, compared to 23.5% in fiscal 2011. The

The net remaining increase in ME&A expenses for the year of $4.4 million was primarily driven by wage inflation and additional 
headcount, higher benefit costs, increased travel, higher project related expenses and a continued emphasis on the Company’s 
Impairment Charge
product development program.

The Company conducted its annual assessment for goodwill impairment in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 by applying a fair 
value based test using discounted cash flow analyses, in accordance with ASC 350-10, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other.” The 
result of this assessment identified that one of the Company’s reporting units goodwill was fully impaired, necessitating a charge 
of $3.7 million. The impairment was due to a declining outlook in the global pleasure craft/megayacht market, the continued 
weakened European economy and few signs of significant near-term recovery in the markets served by this reporting unit. These 
factors were identified as the Company conducted its annual budget review process during the fourth fiscal quarter, and the Com-
pany concluded that the impairment charge was necessary in connection with the preparation of the year-end financial state-
ments during the fourth fiscal quarter. This impairment charge was not deductible for tax purposes. The fair value of the goodwill 
for the remaining reporting units exceeds the respective carrying values.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased by $0.2 million, or 14.2%, in fiscal 2012. Total interest on the Company’s $40 million revolving credit 
facility (“revolver”) remained relatively flat at $0.4 million in fiscal 2012. The average borrowing on the revolver, computed 
monthly, increased to $20.4 million in fiscal 2012, compared to $9.9 million in fiscal 2011. In fiscal 2011, the interest rate on the 
revolver remained flat at 4.00%, the rate floor, for the first eleven months of the fiscal year. In the fourth fiscal quarter of fiscal 
2011, the Company entered into an amended revolver agreement that eliminated the rate floor. As of June 30, 2012, the rate on 
the revolver was 1.74%. Interest expense for the Company’s $25 million Senior Notes, which carry a fixed interest rate of 6.05%, 
Other, Net 
decreased by $0.2 million to $1.0 million in fiscal 2012 due to a lower average outstanding balance during the fiscal year.

For the fiscal 2012 full year, Other, net improved by $2.3 million to a current year income due primarily to favorable exchange 
Income Taxes
movements relative to the euro, Swiss franc, Canadian dollar and Japanese yen.

The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 was 76.6 percent, significantly higher than the prior year fourth quarter 
rate of 46.7 percent. The primary factor increasing the fiscal 2012 rate was the impact of a non-deductible impairment charge of 
$3.7 million, which increased the effective rate by approximately 32 percentage points. The remaining rate increase was due to 
a combination of reduced foreign tax credits, elimination of the R&D tax credit and additional impact of the valuation allowance 
related to the Company’s Belgian facility. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2012 was 39.8 percent, slightly lower than the prior year 
rate of 43.4 percent.

The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not 
be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the tax provision in the period of change. In 
determining whether a valuation allowance is required, the Company takes into account such factors as prior earnings history, 
expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood 
of realization of a deferred tax asset. During fiscal 2012, the Company continued to incur operating losses in certain foreign 
jurisdictions where the loss carryforward period is unlimited. The Company has evaluated the realizability of the net deferred tax 
assets related to these jurisdictions and concluded that based primarily upon continuing losses in these jurisdictions and failure 
to achieve targeted levels of improvement, a full valuation allowance continues to be necessary. Therefore, the Company recorded 
an additional valuation allowance of $1.1 million. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future 
Order Rates
operations will generate sufficient taxable income and foreign source income to realize the remaining deferred tax assets.

As of June 30, 2012, the Company’s backlog of orders scheduled for shipment during the next six months (six-month backlog) 
was $98.7 million, or approximately 33% lower than the six-month backlog of $146.9 million as of June 30, 2011. The decrease in 
backlog is primarily a result of decreased orders by North American oil and gas customers for the Company’s 8500 transmission 
system as rig operators adjust to the natural gas supply overhang and lower prices. In fiscal 2012, the Company began to accept 
orders and ship units of its new 7500 transmission for the oil and gas market. Partially offsetting the slowdown in the North 
American pressure-pumping market, the Company saw modest growth in the six-month backlog for commercial marine trans-
Liquidity and Capital Resources
missions for both the U.S. Gulf Region and Asia.

Fiscal Years 2013, 2012 and 2011

The net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2013 totaled $24.5 million, an increase of $10.0 million, or approximately 
70%, versus fiscal 2012. The increase was driven by a decrease in working capital, primarily accounts receivable, partially offset 
by lower net earnings. Adjusted for the impact of foreign currency translation, net inventory decreased by $0.2 million. From the 
end of the fiscal third quarter, inventory decreased approximately $10 million. The majority of the net decrease in inventory came 
at the Company’s North American manufacturing and Asian distribution operations. This decrease was driven by strong ship-
ments to the Company’s global commercial marine transmission and Asian oil and gas markets. Net inventory as a percentage of 
the six-month backlog increased from 104.5% as of June 30, 2012, to 153.9% as of June 30, 2013. The decrease in trade accounts 
receivable was a result of lower sales in the second half of fiscal 2013 compared to the same period in fiscal 2012, $144.2 million 
versus $191.6 million, respectively. The decrease in trade accounts payable was due to a reduction in purchasing activity related 
to a significant decrease in inventory in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 ($10.2 million).

30

Twin Disc, incORPORATED   |   AnnuAl RepoRt 2013The net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2012 totaled $14.4 million, an increase of $0.6 million, or 4%, versus fiscal 
2011. The slight increase was driven by a 39% increase in net earnings to $26.1 million largely offset by an increase in working 
capital. Adjusted for the impact of foreign currency translation, net inventory increased $9.6 million. The majority of the net in-
crease in inventory came at the Company’s North American manufacturing and distribution operations. This increase was driven 
by strong demand for the Company’s commercial marine transmissions as well as inventory to serve the Company’s North Ameri-
can and Asian oil and gas markets. Net inventory as a percentage of the six-month backlog increased from 67.4% as of June 30, 
2011, to 104.5% as of June 30, 2012. The increase in trade accounts receivable was a result of higher sales in the second half of 
fiscal 2012 compared to the same period in fiscal 2011, $191.6 million versus $173.9 million, respectively. The decrease in trade 
accounts payable was due to a reduction in purchasing activity related to significant decrease in inventory in the fourth quarter of 
fiscal 2012 ($14.6 million) compared to an increase in inventory in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 ($5.8 million).

The net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2011 totaled $13.9 million, a decrease of $21.3 million, or 61%, versus fis-
cal 2010. The net decrease was driven by a net increase in working capital, primarily due to increases in net inventories and trade 
accounts receivable balances, partially offset by a net increase in trade accounts payable and an increase in net earnings of $18.2 
million. The majority of the net increase in inventory came at the Company’s North American manufacturing and distribution 
operations. This increase was driven by strong demand for the Company’s 8500 transmission system for the oil and gas market as 
well as a build-up of inventory in anticipation of the demand for the Company’s new 7500 transmission. Net inventory as a per-
centage of the six-month backlog decreased from 86.2% as of June 30, 2010, to 67.4% as of June 30, 2011. The increase in trade 
accounts receivable was a result of higher sales in the second half of fiscal 2011 compared to the same period in fiscal 2010.

The net cash used for investing activities in fiscal 2013 of $6.5 million consisted primarily of capital expenditures for machinery 
and equipment at our U.S., Indian and Belgian manufacturing operations. In fiscal 2013, the Company spent $6.6 million for capi-
tal expenditures, down from $13.7 million and $12.0 million in fiscal years 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The net cash used for investing activities in fiscal 2012 of $13.9 million consisted primarily of capital expenditures for machin-
ery and equipment at our U.S. and Belgian manufacturing operations. In fiscal 2012, the Company spent $13.7 million for capital 
expenditures, up from $12.0 million and $4.5 million in fiscal years 2011 and 2010, respectively.

The net cash used for investing activities in fiscal 2011 of $12.0 million consisted primarily of capital expenditures for machin-
ery and equipment at our U.S. and Belgian manufacturing operations. In fiscal 2011, the Company spent $12.0 million for capital 
expenditures, up from $4.5 million and $8.9 million in fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively.

In fiscal 2013, the net cash used by financing activities of $12.4 million consisted primarily of the acquisition of treasury stock of 
$3.1 million, under a Board-authorized stock repurchase program, dividends paid to shareholders of the Company of $4.1 million 
and payments of long-term debt of $4.9 million. During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company purchased 185,000 shares 
under this authorization, at an average price of $16.59 per share for a total cost of $3.1 million. The Company has 315,000 shares 
remaining under its authorized stock repurchase plan. 

In fiscal 2012, the net cash used by financing activities of $3.5 million consisted primarily of the acquisition of treasury stock of 
$2.4 million, under a Board authorized stock repurchase program, and dividends paid to shareholders of the Company of $3.9 
million, partially offset by proceeds from long-term debt of $2.6 million. On February 1, 2008, the Board of Directors authorized 
the purchase of 500,000 shares of Common Stock at market values. In fiscal 2012, the Company purchased 125,000 shares of its 
outstanding common stock at an average price of $19.40 per share for a total cost of $2.4 million.

In fiscal 2011, the net cash used by financing activities of $4.2 million consisted primarily of payments on long-term debt of $1.4 
Future Liquidity and Capital Resources
million and dividends paid to shareholders of the Company of $3.4 million.

The Company has a $40,000,000 revolving loan agreement with BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (“BMO”). The Company originally entered 
into this revolving loan agreement in December 2002 with M&I Marshall & Ilsley Bank, predecessor to BMO. At that time, the 
revolving loan agreement was for $20,000,000 and had an expiration date of October 31, 2005. Through a series of amendments, 
the last of which was agreed to during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the total commitment was increased to $40,000,000 
and the term was extended to May 31, 2015. This agreement contains certain covenants, including restrictions on investments, 
acquisitions and indebtedness. Financial covenants include a minimum consolidated adjusted net worth, minimum EBITDA for 
the most recent four fiscal quarters of $11,000,000 at June 30, 2013, and a maximum total funded debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.0 at 
June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants with a four quarter EBITDA 
total of $21,141,000 and a funded debt to EBITDA ratio of 1.28. The minimum adjusted net worth covenant fluctuates based upon 
actual earnings and the Company’s compliance with that covenant is based on the Company’s shareholders’ equity as adjusted by 
certain pension accounting items. As of June 30, 2013, the minimum adjusted equity requirement was $119,390,000 compared to 
an actual result of $176,504,000 after all required adjustments. The outstanding balance of $16,300,000 and $17,550,000 at June 
30, 2013, and June 30, 2012, respectively, is classified as long-term debt. In accordance with the loan agreement as amended, the 
Company can borrow at LIBOR plus an additional “Add-On,” between 1.5% and 2.5%, depending on the Company’s Total Funded 
Debt to EBITDA ratio. The rate was 1.84% and 1.74% at June 30, 2013, and June 30, 2012, respectively.

On April 10, 2006, the Company entered into a Note Agreement (the “Note Agreement”) with The Prudential Insurance Company 
of America and certain other entities (collectively, “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Note Agreement, Purchasers acquired, in the 
aggregate, $25,000,000 in 6.05% Senior Notes due April 10, 2016 (the “Notes”). The Notes mature and become due and payable 
in full on April 10, 2016 (the “Payment Date”). Prior to the Payment Date, the Company is obligated to make quarterly payments 
of interest during the term of the Notes, plus prepayments of principal of $3,571,429 on April 10 of each year from 2010 to 
2015, inclusive. The outstanding balance was $10,714,286 and $14,285,714 at June 30, 2013, and June 30, 2012, respectively. Of 
the outstanding balance, $3,571,429 was classified as a current maturity of long-term debt at June 30, 2013, and June 30, 2012, 
respectively. The remaining $7,142,857 is classified as long-term debt. The Company also has the option of making additional 
prepayments subject to certain limitations, including the payment of a Yield-Maintenance Amount as defined in the Note Agree-
ment. In addition, the Company will be required to make an offer to purchase the Notes upon a Change of Control, and any such 
offer must include the payment of a Yield-Maintenance Amount. The Note Agreement includes certain financial covenants which 
are identical to those associated with the revolving loan agreement discussed above. The Note Agreement also includes certain 
restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness and the disposition of assets out-
side the ordinary course of business. The Note Agreement provides that it shall automatically include any covenants or events of 
default not previously included in the Note Agreement to the extent such covenants or events of default are granted to any other 
lender of an amount in excess of $1,000,000. Following an Event of Default, each Purchaser may accelerate all amounts outstand-
ing under the Notes held by such party. As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.

On November 19, 2012, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Twin Disc International, S.A. entered into a multi-currency 
revolving Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company may, 
from time to time, enter into revolving credit loans in amounts not to exceed, in the aggregate, Wells Fargo’s revolving credit 
commitment of $15,000,000. In general, outstanding revolving credit loans (other than foreign currency loans) will bear interest 
at one of the following rates, as selected by the Company: (1) a “Base Rate,” which is equal to the highest of (i) the prime rate; 
(ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%; or (iii) LIBOR plus 1.00%; or (2) a “LIBOR Rate” (which is equal to LIBOR divided by the 
difference between 1.00 and the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage (as defined in the Credit Agreement)) plus 1.50%. Outstanding 
revolving credit loans that are foreign currency loans will bear interest at the LIBOR Rate plus 1.50%, plus an additional “Manda-
tory Cost,” which is designed to compensate Wells Fargo for the cost of compliance with the requirements of the Bank of England 
and/or the Financial Services Authority, or the requirements of the European Central Bank. In addition to principal and interest 
payments, the Borrowers will be responsible for paying monthly commitment fees equal to .25% of the unused revolving credit 
commitment. The Company has the option of making additional prepayments subject to certain limitations. The Credit Agree-
ment includes financial covenants regarding minimum net worth, minimum EBITDA for the most recent four fiscal quarters of 
$11,000,000, and a maximum total funded debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.0:1. The Credit Agreement also includes certain restrictive 
covenants that limit, among other things, certain investments, acquisitions and indebtedness. The Credit Agreement provides that 
it shall automatically include any covenants or events of default not previously included in the Credit Agreement to the extent 
such covenants or events of default are granted to any other lender of an amount in excess of$1,000,000. The Credit Agreement 
also includes customary events of default, including events of default under the BMO agreement or the Prudential Note Agree-
ment. Following an event of default, Wells Fargo may accelerate all amounts outstanding under any revolving credit notes or the 
Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2015. As of June 30, 2013, there were no borrowings 
under the Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants.

Four quarter EBITDA, total funded debt, and adjusted net worth are non-GAAP measures, and are included herein for the  
purpose of disclosing the status of the Company’s compliance with the four quarter EBITDA, total funded debt to four quarter 
EBITDA ratio, and adjusted net worth covenants described above. In accordance with the Company’s revolving loan agreements

As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants described above. As of June 30, 2013, the Compa-
ny’s backlog of orders scheduled for shipment during the next six months (six-month backlog) was $66.8 million, or approximate-
ly 32% lower than the six-month backlog of $98.7 million as of June 30, 2012. In spite of the decrease in order backlog driven 
primarily by the decline in the North American oil and gas market, as rig operators adjust to the natural gas supply overhang and 
lower prices, the Company does not expect to violate any of its financial covenants in fiscal 2014. The current margin surrounding 
ongoing compliance with the above covenants, in particular, minimum EBITDA for the most recent four fiscal quarters and total 
funded debt to EBITDA, are not expected to decrease significantly in fiscal 2014. Based on its annual financial plan, the Company 
believes it is well positioned to generate sufficient EBITDA levels throughout fiscal 2014 in order to maintain compliance with the 
above covenants. However, as with all forward-looking information, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve the 
planned results in future periods due to the uncertainties in certain of its markets. Please see the factors discussed under Item 
1A, Risk Factors, of this Form 10-K for further discussion of this topic.

The Company’s balance sheet remains very strong, there are no off-balance-sheet arrangements other than the operating leases 
listed below, and we continue to have sufficient liquidity for near-term needs. The Company had $23.7 million of available bor-
rowings on our $40 million revolving loan agreement as of June 30, 2013, as well as $15 million available under its multi-cur-
rency revolver agreement with Wells Fargo Bank. The Company expects to continue to generate enough cash from operations to 
meet our operating and investing needs. As of June 30, 2013, the Company also had cash of $20.7 million, primarily at its overseas 
operations. These funds, with some restrictions and tax implications, are available for repatriation as deemed necessary by the 
Company. In fiscal 2014, the Company expects to contribute $2.6 million to its defined benefit pension plans, the minimum con-
tributions required. However, if the Company elects to make voluntary contributions in fiscal 2014, it intends to do so using cash 
from operations and, if necessary, from available borrowings under existing credit facilities. 

Net working capital decreased $6.5 million, or approximately 5%, in fiscal 2013, and the current ratio increased from 2.9 at June 
30, 2012, to 3.1 at June 30, 2013. The decrease in net working capital was primarily driven by a decrease in accounts receivable 
as a result of a significant decrease in sales in fiscal 2013, partially offset by a decrease in trade accounts payable due to the sig-
nificant reduction in inventory in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2013.

Twin Disc expects capital expenditures to be approximately $15 million in fiscal 2014. These anticipated expenditures reflect the 
Company’s plans to continue investing in modern equipment and facilities, its global sourcing program and new products as well 
as expanding capacity at facilities around the world.

Management believes that available cash, the credit facility, cash generated from future operations, existing lines of credit and 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
potential access to debt markets will be adequate to fund Twin Disc’s capital requirements for the foreseeable future.

The Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements, other than operating leases, as of June 30, 2013 and 2012.

disclosures surrounding uncertain income tax positions.

The Company maintains defined benefit pension plans for some of its operations in the United States and Europe. The Company 
has established the Pension Committee to oversee the operations and administration of the defined benefit plans. The Company

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of this Annual Report requires management’s judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the re-
ported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, and 
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will 
not differ from those estimates.

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note A to the consolidated financial statements. Not all of these 
significant accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective, or complex judgments or estimates. However, 
Accounts Receivable
the policies management considers most critical to understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are the following:

Twin Disc performs ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjusts credit limits based on payment history and the 
customer’s credit-worthiness as determined by review of current credit information. We continuously monitor collections and 
payments from our customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based upon our historical experience and any 
specific customer-collection issues. In addition, senior management reviews the accounts receivable aging on a monthly basis 
to determine if any receivable balances may be uncollectible. Although our accounts receivable are dispersed among a large 
customer base, a significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of our largest customers could have a material 
Inventory
adverse impact on the collectibility of our accounts receivable and future operating results.

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost has been determined by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method for the 
majority of the inventories located in the United States, and by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method for all other inventories. Man-
agement specifically identifies obsolete products and analyzes historical usage, forecasted production based on future orders, 
demand forecasts, and economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory. The ad-
justments to the reserve are estimates that could vary significantly, either favorably or unfavorably, from the actual requirements 
Goodwill
if future economic conditions, customer demand or competitive conditions differ from expectations.

In conformity with U.S. GAAP, goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances 
indicate that an impairment might exist. The Company performs impairment reviews for its four reporting units using a fair-value 
method based on management’s judgments and assumptions or third party valuations. The Company is subject to financial state-
ment risk to the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Based upon the goodwill impairment review 
completed at the end of fiscal 2013, it was determined that the fair value for each of the reporting units significantly exceeded the 
carrying value and therefore goodwill was not impaired. 

In determining the fair value of our reporting units, management is required to make estimates of future operating results, in-
cluding growth rates, and a weighted-average cost of capital that reflects current market conditions, among others. Our develop-
ment of future operating results incorporates management’s best estimates of current and future economic and market condi-
tions which are derived from a review of past results, current results and approved business plans. Many of the factors used in 
assessing fair value are outside the control of management, and these assumptions and estimates can change in future periods. 
While the Company believes its judgments and assumptions were reasonable, different assumptions, economic factors and/or 
market indicators could materially change the estimated fair values of the Company’s reporting units and, therefore, impairment 
charges could be required in the future.

Twin Disc, incORPORATED   |   AnnuAl RepoRt 2013 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The following assumptions are key to our discounted cash flow model:

Business Projections – We make assumptions about the level of sales for each fiscal year including expected growth, if any. This 
assumption drives our planning for volumes, mix, and pricing. We also make assumptions about our cost levels (e.g., capacity 
utilization, cost performance, etc.). These assumptions are key inputs for developing our cash flow projections. These projec-
tions are derived using our internal business plans that are reviewed annually during the annual budget process.

Discount Rates – When measuring a possible impairment, future cash flows are discounted at a rate that is consistent with a 
weighted average cost of capital for a potential market participant. The weighted average cost of capital is an estimate of the 
overall after-tax rate of return required by equity and debt holders of a business enterprise. There are a number of assump-
tions that management makes when calculating the appropriate discount rate, including the targeted leverage ratio.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that 
the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.  For property, plant and equipment and other long-lived assets, 
excluding indefinite-lived intangible assets, the Company performs undiscounted operating cash flow analyses to determine if an 
impairment exists.  If an impairment is determined to exist, any related impairment loss is calculated based on fair value.  Fair 
value is primarily determined using discounted cash flow analyses; however, other methods may be used to substantiate the 
discounted cash flow analyses, including third-party valuations when necessary.  Refer to Note G of the Notes to the consolidated 
financial statements for discussion of the impairment recorded in fiscal 2013.
Warranty

Twin Disc engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the qual-
ity of its suppliers. However, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, the extent of the market affected by the 
failure and the expense involved in satisfactorily addressing the situation. The warranty reserve is established based on our 
best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle future and existing claims on products sold as of the balance sheet date. When 
evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for warranty costs, management takes into consideration the term of the warranty cover-
age, historical claim rates and costs of repair, knowledge of the type and volume of new products and economic trends. While we 
believe the warranty reserve is adequate and that the judgment applied is appropriate, such amounts estimated to be due and 
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
payable in the future could differ materially from what actually transpires.

The Company provides a wide range of benefits to employees and retired employees, including pensions and postretirement 
health care coverage. Plan assets and obligations are recorded annually based on the Company’s measurement date utilizing  
various actuarial assumptions such as discount rates, expected return on plan assets, compensation increases, retirement  
and mortality tables, and health care cost trend rates as of that date. The approach used to determine the annual assumptions  
are as follows:

 Discount Rate – based on the Aon Hewitt AA Above Median Curve at June 30, 2013, as applied to the expected payouts from  
the pension plans. This yield curve is made up of Corporate Bonds rated AA or better.

 Expected Return on Plan Assets – based on the expected long-term average rate of return on assets in the pension funds,  
which is reflective of the current and projected asset mix of the funds and considers historical returns earned on the funds.

 Compensation Increase – reflect the long-term actual experience, the near-term outlook and assumed inflation.

 Retirement and Mortality Rates – based upon the IRS Generational Mortality Table for Annuitants and Non-Annuitants for  
fiscal 2011, 2012 and 2013.

 Health Care Cost Trend Rates – developed based upon historical cost data, near-term outlook and an assessment of likely  
long-term trends.

Measurements of net periodic benefit cost are based on the assumptions used for the previous year-end measurements of assets 
and obligations. The Company reviews its actuarial assumptions on an annual basis and makes modifications to the assumptions 
when appropriate. As required by U.S. GAAP, the effects of the modifications are recorded currently or amortized over future 
periods. Based on information provided by its independent actuaries and other relevant sources, the Company believes that the 
assumptions used are reasonable; however, changes in these assumptions could impact the Company’s financial position, results 
of operations or cash flows.

35

 
 
 
 
 
Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities 
are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of 
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets 
and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary 
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is more likely than not 
that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. In determining whether a valuation allowance is required, the 
Company takes into account such factors as prior earnings history, expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods, 
and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood of realization of a deferred tax asset. During fiscal 2013, the Com-
pany concluded that it was more likely than not that certain net deferred tax assets in foreign jurisdictions would not be realized, 
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
resulting in the recording of a valuation allowance totaling $3,724,000. 

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance designed to clarify the financial statement pre-
sentation requirements of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit 
carryforward exists. This guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013 (the Company’s third 
quarter of fiscal 2014), and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. 

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance designed to improve the transparency in reporting amounts that are reclassified out 
of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income. This new guidance will require presentation of the effects on the 
line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and a cross-refer-
ence to other disclosure currently required for the reclassification items. The amended guidance is effective for reporting periods 
beginning after December 15, 2012 (the Company’s third quarter of fiscal 2013). See Note M of the Notes to the consolidated 
financial statements for the additional disclosures required by this new guidance.

In July 2012, the FASB issued amended guidance that simplifies how entities test indefinite-lived intangible assets other than 
goodwill for impairment. After an assessment of certain qualitative factors, if it is determined to be more likely than not that 
an indefinite-lived asset is impaired, entities must perform the quantitative impairment test. Otherwise, the quantitative test is 
optional. The amended guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after 
September 15, 2012 (the Company’s fiscal 2014), with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to 
have a material impact on the Company’s financial results. 

In September 2011, the FASB issued a standards update that is intended to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. 
This update permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that the fair value 
of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step 
goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” This update is effective for annual and interim 
goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 (the Company’s fiscal 2013). This stan-
dards update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
ITEM 7(a ). QUANTITATIvE AND QUALITATIvE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to market risks from changes in interest rates, commodities and foreign currency exchange rates. To 
reduce such risks, the Company selectively uses financial instruments and other proactive management techniques. All hedging 
transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to clearly defined policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial 
instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Discussion of the Company’s accounting policies and further disclosure relating 
to financial instruments is included in Note A to the consolidated financial statements.

Interest rate risk - The Company’s earnings exposure related to adverse movements of interest rates is primarily derived from 
outstanding floating rate debt instruments that are indexed to the LIBOR interest rate. The Company currently has a $40 million 
revolving loan agreement, which is due to expire on May 31, 2015. In accordance with the loan agreement as amended, the Com-
pany borrows at LIBOR plus an additional “Add-On,” between 1.5% and 2.5%, depending on the Company’s Total Funded Debt to 
EBITDA ratio. Due to the relative stability of interest rates, the Company did not utilize any financial instruments at June 30, 2013, 
to manage interest rate risk exposure. A 10 percent increase or decrease in the applicable interest rate would result in a change in 
pretax interest expense of approximately $30,000.

Commodity price risk - The Company is exposed to fluctuation in market prices for such commodities as steel and aluminum. The 
Company does not utilize commodity price hedges to manage commodity price risk exposure. Direct material cost as a percent of 
total cost of goods sold was 55.6% for fiscal 2013.

Currency risk - The Company has exposure to foreign currency exchange fluctuations. Approximately 22 percent of the Compa-
ny’s revenues in the year ended June 30, 2013, were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Of that total, approxi-
mately 70 percent was denominated in euros with the balance comprised of Japanese yen, Indian rupee, Swiss franc and the Aus-
tralian and Singapore dollars. The Company does not hedge the translation exposure represented by the net assets of its foreign 
subsidiaries. Foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of shareholders’ equity. Forward foreign 
exchange contracts are used to hedge the currency fluctuations on significant transactions denominated in foreign currencies.

36

Twin Disc, incORPORATED   |   AnnuAl RepoRt 2013Derivative financial instruments - The Company has written policies and procedures that place all financial instruments under 
the direction of the Company corporate treasury department and restrict derivative transactions to those intended for hedging 
purposes. The use of financial instruments for trading purposes is prohibited. The Company uses financial instruments to manage 
the market risk from changes in foreign exchange rates.

Periodically, the Company enters into forward exchange contracts to reduce the earnings and cash flow impact of non-functional 
currency denominated receivables and payables. These contracts are highly effective in hedging the cash flows attributable to 
changes in currency exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from these contracts offset the foreign exchange gains or losses 
on the underlying assets and liabilities being hedged. The maturities of the forward exchange contracts generally coincide with 
the settlement dates of the related transactions. Gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in Other Income (Expense), 
net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income as the changes in the fair value of the contracts are 
recognized and generally offset the gains and losses on the hedged items in the same period. The primary currency to which 
the Company was exposed in fiscal 2013 and 2012 was the euro. At June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no outstanding 
forward exchange contracts.

ITEM 9( a). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Conclusion Regarding Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report 
and under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Finan-
cial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. 
Based on such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that such disclosure controls and 
procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports 
it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified 
in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that information required to 
be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the 
Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely deci-
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting 
sions regarding disclosure.

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. 
The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of 
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted ac-
counting principles. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i)  pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and  

dispositions of the Company,

(ii)  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

(iii)  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 financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  
Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inad-
equate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures included in such 
controls may deteriorate.

The Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based upon the 
framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway 
Commission (COSO). Based upon such evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting 
was effective as of June 30, 2013.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the Company’s internal control over 
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting 
financial reporting as of June 30, 2013, as stated in their report which appears herein.

reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over  
financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Twin Disc, Incorporated:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1) present fairly, in all 
material respects, the financial position of Twin Disc, Incorporated and its subsidiaries at June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012, and 
the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2013 in conformity 
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial state-
ment schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set 
forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company 
maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2013, based on criteria 
established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway 
Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedule, 
for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control 
over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 
9(a). Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the 
Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated 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 audits 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, as-
sessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial state-
ment 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 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 
(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions 
of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit prepara-
tion 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 (iii) 
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 its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, pro-
jections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because 
of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

TWIN DISC, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidation Principles
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of these financial statements:

 – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Twin Disc, Incorporated and its wholly 

and partially owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. Certain foreign subsidiaries are included based on fiscal years ending 
May 31, to facilitate prompt reporting of consolidated accounts. The Company also has a controlling interest in a Japanese joint 
venture, which is consolidated based upon a fiscal year ending March 31. All significant intercompany transactions have  
Translation of Foreign Currencies
been eliminated.

 – The financial statements of the Company’s non-U.S. subsidiaries are translated using the 

current exchange rate for assets and liabilities and the weighted-average exchange rate for the year for revenues and expenses. 
The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, which is included 
in equity. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in earnings. Included in other income (expense) are 
Receivables
foreign currency transaction gains (losses) of $642,000, $1,103,000 and ($1,141,000) in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 – Trade accounts receivable are stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $2,884,000 and $2,194,000 at 

June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts provision for certain customers 
where a risk of default has been specifically identified as well as provisions determined on a general basis when it is believed that 
some default is probable and estimable but not yet clearly associated with a specific customer. The assessment of likelihood of 
customer default is based on a variety of factors, including the length of time the receivables are past due, the historical collection 
experience and existing economic conditions. Various factors may adversely impact our customer’s ability to access sufficient 
liquidity and capital to fund their operations and render the Company’s estimation of customer defaults inherently uncertain. 
While the Company believes current allowances for doubtful accounts are adequate, it is possible that these factors may cause 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments 
higher levels of customer defaults and bad debt expense in future periods.

– The carrying amount reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, trade accounts 

receivable, accounts payable and short term borrowings approximate fair value because of the immediate short-term maturity of 
these financial instruments. If measured at fair value, cash would be classified as Level 1 and all other items listed above would 
be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as described in Note M. The fair value of the Company’s 6.05% Senior Notes 
due April 10, 2016, was approximately $11,536,000 and $15,768,000 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The fair value of 
the Senior Notes is estimated by discounting the future cash flows at rates offered to the Company for similar debt instruments of 
comparable maturities. This rate was represented by the U.S. Treasury Three-Year Yield Curve Rate (0.66% and 0.41% for fiscal 
2013 and 2012, respectively), plus the current add-on related to the Company’s revolving loan agreement (1.65% and 1.50% for 
fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively) resulting in a total rate of 2.31% and 1.91% for fiscal 2013 and 2012, respectively. See Note 
G, “Debt” for the related book value of this debt instrument. The Company’s revolving loan agreement approximates fair value at 
June 30, 2013. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt (including the current portion) would be clas-
Derivative Financial Instruments
sified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as described in Note M.

 – The Company has written policies and procedures that place all financial instruments under 

the direction of the Company’s corporate treasury and restricts all derivative transactions to those intended for hedging purpos-
es. The use of financial instruments for trading purposes is prohibited. The Company uses financial instruments to manage the 
market risk from changes in foreign exchange rates.

Periodically, the Company enters into forward exchange contracts to reduce the earnings and cash flow impact of non-functional 
currency denominated receivables and payables. These contracts are highly effective in hedging the cash flows attributable to 
changes in currency exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from these contracts offset the foreign exchange gains or losses on 
the underlying assets and liabilities being hedged. The maturities of the forward exchange contracts generally coincide with the 
settlement dates of the related transactions. Gains and losses on these contracts are recorded in other income (expense) as the 
changes in the fair value of the contracts are recognized and generally offset the gains and losses on the hedged items in the same 
period. The primary currency to which the Company was exposed in fiscal 2013 and 2012 was the euro. At June 30, 2013 and 
Inventories
2012, the Company had no outstanding forward exchange contracts.

 – Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost has been determined by the last in, first out (LIFO) 
method for the majority of inventories located in the United States, and by the first in, first out (FIFO) method for all other 
inventories. Management specifically identifies obsolete products and analyzes historical usage, forecasted production based on 
future orders, demand forecasts, and economic trends, among others, when evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for excess and 
obsolete inventory.

Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation

 – Assets are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance, repairs and minor re-
newals are charged against earnings as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreci-
ated. Depreciation is provided on the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets for financial reporting and 
on accelerated methods for income tax purposes. The lives assigned to buildings and related improvements range from 10 to 40 
years, and the lives assigned to machinery and equipment range from 5 to 15 years. Upon disposal of property, plant and equip-
ment, the cost of the asset and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss 
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
is reflected in earnings. Fully depreciated assets are not removed from the accounts until physically disposed.

 – The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business 

circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. For property, plant and equipment 
and other long-lived assets, excluding indefinite-lived intangible assets, the Company performs undiscounted operating cash flow 
analyses to determine if an impairment exists. If an impairment is determined to exist, any related impairment loss is calculated 
based on fair value. Fair value is primarily determined using discounted cash flow analyses; however, other methods may be used 
to substantiate the discounted cash flow analyses, including third party valuations when necessary. Refer to Note G for discussion 
Revenue Recognition
of the impairment charge recorded in fiscal 2013.

 – Revenue is recognized by the Company when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of 
an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred and ownership has transferred to the customer; the price to the customer is fixed 
or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized at the time product is shipped to the customer, 
except for certain domestic shipments to overseas customers where revenue is recognized upon receipt by the customer. A 
significant portion of our consolidated net sales is transacted through a third party distribution network. Sales to third-party 
distributors are subject to the revenue recognition criteria described above. Goods sold to third-party distributors are subject to 
Goodwill and Other Intangibles
an annual return policy, for which a provision is made at the time of shipment based upon historical experience.

 – Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets, primarily tradenames, are tested for im-

pairment at least annually on the last day of the Company’s fiscal year and more frequently if an event occurs which indicates the 
asset may be impaired in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 350-10, “Intangibles – Goodwill 
and Other.” If applicable, goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets not subject to amortization have been assigned to 
reporting units for purposes of impairment testing based upon the relative fair value of the asset to each reporting unit.

A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of impairment has occurred. Such indicators may 
include, among others: a significant decline in expected future cash flows; a sustained, significant decline in the Company’s stock 
price and market capitalization; a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; unanticipated competi-
tion; the testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit; and slower growth rates. Any adverse 
change in these factors could have a significant impact on the recoverability of these assets and could have a material impact on 
the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Impairment of goodwill is measured according to a two-step approach. In the first step, the fair value of a reporting unit, as 
defined, is compared to the carrying value of the reporting unit, including goodwill. The fair value is primarily determined using 
discounted cash flow analyses; however, other methods may be used to substantiate the discounted cash flow analyses, including 
third-party valuations. For purposes of the June 30, 2013, impairment analysis, the Company has utilized discounted cash flow 
analyses. If the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure 
the amount of the impairment loss, if any. In the second step, the implied value of the goodwill is estimated as the fair value of 
the reporting unit less the fair value of all other tangible and identifiable intangible assets of the reporting unit. If the carrying 
amount of the goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to 
that excess, not to exceed the carrying amount of the goodwill.

Based upon the goodwill impairment review completed in conjunction with the preparation of the annual financial statements at 
the end of fiscal 2013, which incorporates management’s best estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected 
period and a weighted-average cost of capital that reflects current market conditions, it was determined that the fair value of 
goodwill for each of the reporting units significantly exceeded the carrying value and therefore goodwill was not impaired. 

The fair value of the Company’s other intangible assets with indefinite lives, primarily tradenames, is estimated using the relief-
from-royalty method, which requires assumptions related to projected revenues; assumed royalty rates that could be payable 
if the Company did not own the asset; and a discount rate. The Company completed the impairment testing of indefinite-lived 
intangibles as of June 30, 2013, and concluded there were no impairments.

Changes in circumstances, existing at the measurement date or at other times in the future, or in the numerous estimates associ-
ated with management’s judgments, assumptions and estimates made in assessing the fair value of goodwill and other indefi-
nite-lived intangibles, could result in an impairment charge in the future. The Company will continue to monitor all significant 
estimates and impairment indicators, and will perform interim impairment reviews as necessary.

Any cost incurred to extend or renew the term of an indefinite lived intangible asset are expensed as incurred.

Twin Disc, incORPORATED   |   AnnuAl RepoRt 2013Deferred Taxes

 – The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future income tax consequences of 

events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are 
determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets 
and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which temporary differences are expected to reverse. Valuation 
allowances are provided for deferred tax assets where it is considered more likely than not that the Company will not realize the 
Management Estimates
benefit of such assets.

 – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles re-
quires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure 
of contingent liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the 
Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs
reporting periods. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates.

Reclassification
sociated with shipping and handling of products is reflected in cost of goods sold.

 – The Company records revenue from shipping and handling costs in net sales. The cost as-

 – Certain amounts in the 2012 Notes to the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to  

conform to the presentation in the fiscal 2013 financial statements. Specifically, $478,000 has been reclassified from Building  
Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements
to Land in Note C.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company identified errors related to its reserve for uncertain tax positions that 
affected prior periods beginning in the year ended June 30, 2007, and subsequent periods through September 28, 2012. In 
evaluating whether the Company’s previously issued consolidated financial statements were materially misstated, the Company 
considered the guidance in ASC Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections and ASC Topic 250-10-S99-1, Assessing 
Materiality. The Company concluded this error was not material individually or in the aggregate to any of the prior reporting 
periods. However, the cumulative error would be material in the year ended June 30, 2013, if the entire correction was recorded 
in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. As such, the revision for this correction to the applicable prior periods is reflected in the 
financial information herein. As a result of correcting the errors related to its reserve for uncertain tax positions, net earnings 
attributable to Twin Disc was decreased by $69,000 and $50,000 in fiscal 2012 and 2011, respectively. The cumulative impact of 
this error correction prior to fiscal 2011 was to reduce shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2010, by $658,000. In addition to record-
ing this correcting adjustment, the Company recorded other adjustments to prior period amounts to correct other immaterial 
out-of-period adjustments related to income taxes, including those that had been previously disclosed. As a result of correcting 
these other immaterial out-of-period adjustments, net earnings attributable to Twin Disc was increased by $700,000 in fiscal 
2012 and decreased by $783,000 in fiscal 2011. The cumulative impact of these other immaterial out-of-period adjustments prior 
to fiscal 2011 was to increase shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2010, by $83,000.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance designed to clarify the financial statement pre-
sentation requirements of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit 
carryforward exists. This guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013 (the Company’s third 
quarter of fiscal 2014), and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. 

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance designed to improve the transparency in reporting amounts that are reclassified out 
of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income. This new guidance will require presentation of the effects on the 
line items of net income of significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and a cross-refer-
ence to other disclosure currently required for the reclassification items. The amended guidance is effective for reporting periods 
beginning after December 15, 2012 (the Company’s third quarter of fiscal 2013). See Note M for the additional disclosures 
required by this new guidance.

In July 2012, the FASB issued amended guidance that simplifies how entities test indefinite-lived intangible assets other than 
goodwill for impairment. After an assessment of certain qualitative factors, if it is determined to be more likely than not that 
an indefinite-lived asset is impaired, entities must perform the quantitative impairment test. Otherwise, the quantitative test is 
optional. The amended guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after 
September 15, 2012 (the Company’s fiscal 2014), with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to 
have a material impact on the Company’s financial results. 

In September 2011, the FASB issued a standards update that is intended to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment. 
This update permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that the fair value 
of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step 
goodwill impairment test described in ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” This update is effective for annual and 
interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 (the Company’s fiscal 2013). 
This standards update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company conducted its annual assessment for goodwill impairment in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 by applying a fair 
value based test using discounted cash flow analyses, in accordance with ASC 350-10, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other.” The 
inputs utilized in the discounted cash flow analysis used to measure the fair value of goodwill are considered Level 3 in the fair 
value hierarchy. The result of this assessment identified that one of the Company’s reporting units goodwill was fully impaired, 
necessitating a non-cash charge of $3,670,000. The impairment was due to a declining outlook in the global pleasure craft/mega-
yacht market, the weakened European economy, few signs of significant near-term recovery in the markets served by this report-
ing unit and the heightened economic risk profile of this Italian reporting unit as of June 30, 2012. These factors were identified 
as the Company conducted its annual budget review process during the fourth fiscal quarter, and the Company concluded that the 
impairment charge was necessary in connection with the preparation of the year end financial statements. The fair value of the 
goodwill for the remaining reporting units significantly exceeds the respective carrying values.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company committed to a plan and entered negotiations to exit the distribution 
agreement and sell the inventory of its Italian distributor back to the parent supplier. This decision triggered an impairment re-
view of the long lived assets at this entity, resulting in an impairment charge of $1,405,000, representing a complete impairment 
of the remaining intangibles ($1,277,000) and fixed assets ($128,000) for this entity. The impairment charge was determined 
by deriving the fair value of the asset group utilizing a discounted cash flow model.  Significant inputs to this model include the 
discount rate, sales projections and profitability estimates.  These inputs would be considered Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The weighted average remaining useful life of the intangible assets included in the table above is approximately 7 years.

Intangible amortization expense for the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, was $718,000, $809,000 and $794,000, 
respectively. Estimated intangible amortization expense for each of the next five fiscal years is as follows (in thousands):

The Company warrants all assembled products and parts (except component products or parts on which written warranties are 
issued by the respective manufacturers thereof and are furnished to the original customer, as to which the Company makes no 
warranty and assumes no liability) against defective materials or workmanship. Such warranty generally extends from periods 
ranging from 12 months to 24 months. The Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including ac-
tively monitoring and evaluating the quality of its suppliers. However, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, 
the number of units affected by the failure and the expense involved in satisfactorily addressing the situation. The warranty 
reserve is established based on our best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle future and existing claims on products sold 
as of the balance sheet date. When evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for warranty costs, management takes into consid-
eration the term of the warranty coverage, historical claim rates and costs of repair, knowledge of the type and volume of new 
products and economic trends. While we believe the warranty reserve is adequate and that the judgment applied is appropriate, 
such amounts estimated to be due and payable in the future could differ materially from what actually transpires. The following 
is a listing of the activity in the warranty reserve during the years ended June 30 (in thousands):

The Company has a revolving loan agreement with BMO Harris Bank NA (BMO), successor by merger to M&I Marshall & Ilsley 
Bank. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the total commitment was increased to $40,000,000 from $35,000,000 and the 
term was extended to May 31, 2015. The outstanding balance of $16,300,000 and $17,550,000 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respec-
tively, is classified as long-term debt. In accordance with the loan agreement, as amended, the Company can borrow at LIBOR plus 
an additional “Add-On,” between 1.5% and 2.5%, depending on the Company’s total funded debt to EBITDA ratio. The rate was 
1.84% and 1.74% at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. This agreement contains certain covenants, including restrictions on 
investments, acquisitions and indebtedness. Financial covenants include a minimum consolidated net worth amount, as defined, 
a minimum EBITDA for the most recent four fiscal quarters, and a maximum total funded debt to EBITDA ratio. As of June 30, 
2013, the Company was in compliance with these financial covenants. 

On April 10, 2006, the Company entered into a Note Agreement (the “Note Agreement”) with The Prudential Insurance Company 
of America and certain other entities (collectively, “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Note Agreement, Purchasers acquired, in the 
aggregate, $25,000,000 in 6.05% Senior Notes due April 10, 2016 (the “Notes”). The Notes mature and become due and payable 
in full on April 10, 2016 (the “Payment Date”). Prior to the Payment Date, the Company is obligated to make quarterly payments 
of interest during the term of the Notes, plus prepayments of principal of $3,571,429 on April 10 of each year from 2010 to 
2015, inclusive. The Company also has the option of making additional prepayments subject to certain limitations, including the 
payment of a Yield-Maintenance Amount as defined in the Note Agreement. In addition, the Company will be required to make 
an offer to purchase the Notes upon a Change of Control, as defined in the Note Agreement, and any such offer must include the 
payment of a Yield-Maintenance Amount. The Note Agreement includes certain financial covenants which are identical to those 
associated with the revolving loan agreement discussed above. As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with these 
financial covenants. The Note Agreement also includes certain restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the incurrence 
of additional indebtedness and the disposition of assets outside the ordinary course of business. The Note Agreement provides 
that it shall automatically include any covenants or events of default not previously included in the Note Agreement to the extent 
such covenants or events of default are granted to any other lender of an amount in excess of $1,000,000. Following an Event of 
Default, each Purchaser may accelerate all amounts outstanding under the Notes held by such party.

On November 19, 2012, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary Twin Disc International, S.A. entered into a multi-currency 
revolving Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company may, 
from time to time, enter into revolving credit loans in amounts not to exceed, in the aggregate, Wells Fargo’s revolving credit 
commitment of $15,000,000. In general, outstanding revolving credit loans (other than foreign currency loans) will bear interest 
at one of the following rates, as selected by the Company: (1) a “Base Rate,” which is equal to the highest of (i) the prime rate; 
(ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%; or (iii) LIBOR plus 1.00%; or (2) a “LIBOR Rate” (which is equal to LIBOR divided by the 
difference between 1.00 and the Eurodollar Reserve Percentage (as defined in the Credit Agreement)) plus 1.50%. Outstanding 
revolving credit loans that are foreign currency loans will bear interest at the LIBOR Rate plus 1.50%, plus an additional “Manda-
tory Cost,” which is designed to compensate Wells Fargo for the cost of compliance with the requirements of the Bank of England 
and/or the Financial Services Authority, or the requirements of the European Central Bank. In addition to principal and interest 
payments, the Borrowers will be responsible for paying monthly commitment fees equal to .25% of the unused revolving credit 
commitment. The Company has the option of making additional prepayments subject to certain limitations. The Credit Agree-
ment includes financial covenants regarding minimum net worth, minimum EBITDA for the most recent four fiscal quarters of 
$11,000,000, and a maximum total funded debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.0:1. As of June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance 
with these financial covenants. The Credit Agreement also includes certain restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, 
certain investments, acquisitions and indebtedness. The Credit Agreement provides that it shall automatically include any 
covenants or events of default not previously included in the Credit Agreement to the extent such covenants or events of default 
are granted to any other lender of an amount in excess of $1,000,000. The Credit Agreement also includes customary events of 
default, including events of default under the BMO agreement or the Predential Note Agreement. Following an event of default, 
Wells Fargo may accelerate all amounts outstanding under any revolving credit notes or the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agree-
ment is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2015. As of June 30, 2013, there were no borrowings under the Credit Agreement.

The aggregate scheduled maturities of outstanding long-term debt obligations in subsequent years are as follows (in thousands):

ditional 375,000 shares of common stock at market values. These authorizations have no expiration. In fiscal 2013, the Company 
purchased 185,000 shares of its outstanding common stock at an average price of $16.59 per share for a total cost of $3,068,652.

Cash dividends per share were $0.36, $0.34 and $0.30 in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Effective June 30, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors established a Shareholder Rights Plan and distributed to sharehold-
ers one preferred stock purchase right (a “Right’) for each outstanding share of common stock. This Shareholder Rights Plan was 
amended on May 1, 2012. Under certain circumstances, a Right can be exercised to purchase one four hundredth of a share of 
Series A Junior Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $125, subject to certain anti dilution adjustments. The Rights will become 
exercisable on the earlier of: (i) ten business days following a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associ-
ated persons (an “Acquiring Person”) has acquired, or obtained the right to acquire from shareholders, beneficial ownership of 
20% or more of the outstanding Company’s common stock (or 30% or more in the case of any person or group which currently 
owns 20% or more of the shares or who shall become the beneficial owner of 20% or more of the shares as a result of any 
transfer by reason of the death of or by gift from any other person who is an affiliate or an associate of such existing holder or by 
succeeding such a person as trustee of a trust existing on the Record Date (“Existing Holder”)) or (ii) ten business days following 
the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group beneficially owning 20% or more 
of such outstanding Common Stock (or 30% or more for an Existing Holder), as such periods may be extended pursuant to the 
Rights Agreement. In the event that any person or group becomes an Acquiring Person, each holder of a Right shall thereafter 
have the right to receive, upon exercise, in lieu of Preferred Stock, common stock of the Company having a value equal to two 
times the exercise price of the Right. However, Rights are not exercisable as described in this paragraph until such time as the 
Rights are no longer redeemable by the Company as set forth below. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, if any person becomes 
an Acquiring Person all Rights that are, or (under certain circumstances specified in the Rights Agreement) were, beneficially 
owned by an Acquiring Person will become null and void.

The Rights will expire at the close of business on June 30, 2018, unless earlier redeemed or exchanged by the Company. At any 
time before a person becomes an Acquiring Person, the Company may redeem the Rights in whole, but not in part, at a price of 
$.01 per Right, appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date 
hereof. Immediately upon the action of the Board of Directors ordering redemption of the Rights, the Rights will terminate and 
the only right of the holders of Rights will be to receive the $.01 redemption price.

The Company is authorized to issue 200,000 shares of preferred stock, none of which have been issued. The Company has  
designated 150,000 shares of the preferred stock for the purpose of the Shareholder Rights Plan.

Industrial products include clutches, power take-offs and pump drives sold to the agriculture, recycling, construction and oil and 
gas markets. The land-based transmission products include applications for oil field and natural gas, military and airport rescue 
and fire fighting. The marine and propulsion systems include marine transmission, controls, surface drives, propellers and boat 
management systems for the global commercial, pleasure craft and patrol boat markets. Other products includes non-Twin Disc

The Company has two reportable segments: manufacturing and distribution. These segments are managed separately because 
each provides different services and requires different technology and marketing strategies. The accounting practices of the 
segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Transfers among segments are at 
established intercompany selling prices. Management evaluates the performance of its segments based on net earnings.

Information about the Company’s segments is summarized as follows (in thousands):

One customer, Sewart Supply, Inc. (a distributor of Twin Disc), accounted for approximately 11% of consolidated net sales in fis-
cal 2013. There were no customers that accounted for 10% or more of consolidated net sales in fiscal 2012 or fiscal 2011. 

K. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

During fiscal 2011, the Company adopted the Twin Disc, Incorporated 2010 Stock Incentive Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the 
“Directors’ Plan”), a plan to grant non-employee directors equity based awards up to 250,000 shares of common stock, and the 
Twin Disc, Incorporated 2010 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), a plan under which officers and key 
employees may be granted equity based awards up to 650,000 shares of common stock. The Directors’ Plan may grant options to 
purchase shares of common stock, at the discretion of the board, to non-employee directors who are elected or reelected to the 
board, or who continue to serve on the board. Such options carry an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Com-
pany’s common stock as of the date of grant, vest immediately, and expire ten years after the date of grant. Options granted under 
the Incentive Plan are determined to be non-qualified or incentive stock options as of the date of grant, and may carry a vesting 
schedule. For options under the Incentive Plan that are intended to qualify as incentive stock options, if the optionee owns more 
than 10% of the total combined voting power of the Company’s stock, the price will not be less than 110% of the grant date fair 
market value and the options expire five years after the date of grant. There were no incentive options granted to a greater than 
10% shareholder during the years presented. There were no options outstanding under the Directors’ Plan and the Incentive Plan 
as of June 30, 2013 and 2012.

The Company has 21,600 non-qualified stock options outstanding as of June 30, 2013, under the Twin Disc, Incorporated Plan for 
Non-Employee Directors and Twin Disc, Incorporated 2004 Stock Incentive Plans. The 2004 plans were terminated during 2011, 
except options then outstanding will remain so until exercised or until they expire.

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718-10, “Compensation – Stock Compensa-
tion.” In addition, the Company computes its windfall tax pool using the shortcut method. ASC Topic 718-10 requires the Com-
pany to expense the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments using the fair-value-based 
method. All options were 100% vested at the adoption of this statement.

During fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company granted no non-qualified stock options. As a result, no compensation  
cost has been recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 
2011, respectively.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, was approximately $539,000, 
$1,002,000 and $630,000, respectively.

In fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company granted a target number of 28,255, 15,449 and 98,358 performance stock unit 
awards, respectively, to various employees of the Company, including executive officers. The performance stock unit awards 
granted in fiscal 2013 will vest if the Company achieves a specified target objective relating to consolidated economic profit (as 
defined in the Performance Stock Unit Award Grant Agreement) in the cumulative three fiscal year period ending June 30, 2015. 
The performance stock unit awards granted in fiscal 2013 are subject to adjustment if the Company’s economic profit for the 
period falls below or exceeds the specified target objective, and the maximum number of performance stock units that can be 
awarded if the target objective is exceeded is 33,322. Based upon actual results to date and the low probability of achieving the 
threshold performance levels, the Company is not accruing the performance stock unit awards granted in fiscal 2013 and has re-
versed previously recognized expenses related to these awards during the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The performance stock 
unit awards granted in fiscal 2012 will vest if the Company achieves a specified target objective relating to consolidated economic 
profit (as defined in the Performance Stock Unit Award Grant Agreement) in the cumulative three fiscal year period ending June 
30, 2014. The performance stock unit awards granted in fiscal 2012 are subject to adjustment if the Company’s economic profit 
for the period falls below or exceeds the specified target objective, and the maximum number of performance stock units that can 
be awarded if the target objective is exceeded is 18,233. Based upon actual results to date and the low probability of achieving 
the threshold performance levels, the Company is not accruing the performance stock unit awards granted in fiscal 2012 and 
has reversed previously recognized expenses related to these awards during the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The performance 
stock unit awards granted in fiscal 2011 are subject to adjustment if the Company’s economic profit for the period falls below or 
exceeds the specified target objective, and the maximum number of performance stock units that can be awarded if the target 
objective is exceeded is 118,030. Based upon actual results to date, the Company is accruing the performance stock unit awards 
granted in fiscal 2011 at the maximum level. There were 16,811, 133,479 and 316,698 unvested performance stock unit awards 
outstanding at June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value of the unvested awards 
at June 30, 2013, was $28.90. The performance stock unit awards are remeasured at fair-value based upon the Company’s stock 
price at the end of each reporting period. The fair-value of the stock unit awards are expensed over the performance period for 
the shares that are expected to ultimately vest. The compensation expense (income) for the year ended June 30, 2013, 2012 and 
2011, related to the performance stock unit award grants, approximated $1,238,000, $(631,000) and $4,246,000, respectively. 
At June 30, 2013, the Company had $397,000 of unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested shares that would 
vest if the specified target objective was achieved for the fiscal 2012 and 2013 awards. The total fair value of performance stock 
unit awards vested in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $2,787,000, $2,068,000 and $0, respectively. The performance stock unit 
awards are cash based, and are thus recorded as a liability on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2013, 
these awards are included in “Accrued liabilities” ($2,787,000) due to the awards having a performance period ending in less  
than one year. As of June 30, 2012, these awards are included in “Accrued liabilities” ($2,068,000) and “Other long-term liabili-
ties” ($1,547,000) due to a portion of the awards having performance periods ending in less than one year, with the others all 
exceeding one year. 

In fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company granted a target number of 28,535, 15,335 and 72,546 performance stock awards, 
respectively, to various employees of the Company, including executive officers. The performance stock awards granted in fiscal 
2013 will vest if the Company achieves a specified target objective relating to consolidated economic profit (as defined in the Per-
formance Stock Award Grant Agreement) in the cumulative three fiscal year period ending June 30, 2015. The performance stock 
awards granted in fiscal 2013 are subject to adjustment if the Company’s economic profit for the period falls below or exceeds 
the specified target objective, and the maximum number of performance shares that can be awarded if the target objective is 
exceeded is 32,880. Based upon actual results to date and the low probability of achieving the threshold performance levels, the 
Company is not accruing the performance stock awards granted in fiscal 2013 and has reversed previously recognized expenses 
related to these awards during the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The performance stock awards granted in fiscal 2012 will vest if 
the Company achieves a specified target objective relating to consolidated economic profit (as defined in the Performance Stock 
Award Grant Agreement) in the cumulative three fiscal year period ending June 30, 2014. The performance stock awards granted 
in fiscal 2012 are subject to adjustment if the Company’s economic profit for the period falls below or exceeds the specified target 
objective, and the maximum number of performance shares that can be awarded if the target objective is exceeded is 17,688. 
Based upon actual results to date and the low probability of achieving the threshold performance levels, the Company is not 
accruing the performance stock awards granted in fiscal 2012 and has reversed previously recognized expenses related to these 
awards during the second quarter of fiscal 2013. The performance stock awards granted in fiscal 2011 are subject to adjustment 
if the Company’s economic profit for the period falls below or exceeds the specified target objective, and the maximum number 
of performance shares that can be awarded if the target objective is exceeded is 87,055. Based upon actual results to date, the 
Company is accruing the performance stock awards granted in fiscal 2011 at the maximum level. There were 40,231, 102,391 
and 242,563 unvested performance stock awards outstanding at June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The fair value of the 
stock awards (on the date of grant) is expensed over the performance period for the shares that are expected to ultimately vest. 
The compensation expense for the year ended June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, related to performance stock awards, approximated 
$209,000, $838,000 and $876,000, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value of the unvested awards at June 30, 
2013, was $26.16. At June 30, 2013, the Company had $1,052,000 of unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested 
shares that would vest if the specified target objective was achieved for the fiscal 2012 and 2013 awards. The total fair value of 
performance stock awards vested in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $2,055,000, $1,671,000 and $0, respectively.

61

In addition to the performance shares mentioned above, the Company has unvested restricted stock outstanding that will vest if 
certain service conditions are fulfilled. The fair value of the restricted stock grants is recorded as compensation over the vesting 
period, which is generally 1 to 3 years. During fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company granted 83,729, 43,620 and 119,268 
service-based restricted shares, respectively, to employees and non-employee directors in each year. A total of 30,532 shares of 
restricted stock were forfeited during fiscal 2013. There were 186,469, 250,323 and 237,691 unvested shares outstanding at 
June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Compensation expense of $1,234,000, $1,435,000 and $1,026,000 was recognized 
during the year ended June 30, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to these service-based awards. The total fair value of 
restricted stock grants vested in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $2,177,000, $977,000 and $133,000, respectively. As of June 30, 
2013, the Company had $1,097,000 of unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock which will be recognized 
over the next three years.

L. ENGINEERING AND DEvELOPMENT COSTS

Engineering and development costs include research and development expenses for new products, development and major im-
provements to existing products, and other costs for ongoing efforts to refine existing products. Research and development costs 
charged to operations totaled $3,058,000, $2,657,000 and $2,475,000 in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Total engineer-
ing and development costs were $9,396,000, $9,508,000 and $8,776,000 in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

M. PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

The Company has non-contributory, qualified defined benefit pension plans covering substantially all domestic employees hired 
prior to October 1, 2003, and certain foreign employees. Domestic plan benefits are based on years of service, and, for salaried 
employees, on average compensation for benefits earned prior to January 1, 1997, and on a cash balance plan for benefits earned 
after January 1, 1997. The Company’s funding policy for the plans covering domestic employees is to contribute an actuarially de-
termined amount which falls between the minimum and maximum amount that can be deducted for federal income tax purposes.

On June 3, 2009, the Company announced it would freeze future accruals under the domestic defined benefit pension plans effec-
tive August 1, 2009.

In addition, the Company has unfunded, non-qualified retirement plans for certain management employees and Directors. In the 
case of management employees, benefits are based either on final average compensation or on an annual credit to a bookkeeping 
account, intended to restore the benefits that would have been earned under the qualified plans, but for the earnings limitations 
under the Internal Revenue Code. In the case of Directors, benefits are based on years of service on the Board. All benefits vest 
upon retirement from the Company.

In addition to providing pension benefits, the Company provides other postretirement benefits, including health care and life 
insurance benefits for certain domestic retirees. All employees retiring after December 31, 1992, and electing to continue health 
care coverage through the Company’s group plan, are required to pay 100% of the premium cost.

The measurement date for the Company’s pension and postretirement benefit plans in fiscal 2013 and 2012 was June 30.

The assumed weighted-average health care cost trend rate was 7.5% in 2013, grading down to 5% in 2017. A 1% increase in  
the assumed health care cost trend would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by approximately  
$406,000 and the service and interest cost by approximately $17,000. A 1% decrease in the assumed health care cost trend  
would decrease the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation by approximately $365,000 and the service and interest  
cost by approximately $15,000.

Plan Assets

The Company’s Pension Committee (“Committee”) oversees investment matters related to the Company’s funded benefit plans. 
The Committee works with external actuaries and investment consultants on an ongoing basis to establish and monitor invest-
ment strategies and target asset allocations. The overall objective of the Committee’s investment strategy is to earn a rate of 
return over time to satisfy the benefit obligations of the pension plans and to maintain sufficient liquidity to pay benefits and 
address other cash requirements of the pension plans. The Committee has established an Investment Policy Statement which pro-
vides written documentation of the Company’s expectations regarding its investment programs for the pension plans, establishes 
objectives and guidelines for the investment of the plan assets consistent with the Company’s financial and benefit-related goals, 
and outlines criteria and procedures for the ongoing evaluation of the investment program. The Company employs a total return 
on investment approach whereby a mix of investments among several asset classes are used to maximize long-term return of plan 
assets while avoiding excessive risk. Investment risk is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through quarterly invest-
ment portfolio reviews, and annual liability measurements.

The Company’s pension plan weighted-average asset allocations at June 30, 2013 and 2012, by asset category are as follows:

Due to market conditions and other factors, actual asset allocation may vary from the target allocation outlined above. The 
domestic pension plans held 98,211 shares of Company stock with a fair market value of $2,327,601 (2.5 percent of total plan 
assets) at June 30, 2013, and 98,211 shares with a fair market value of $1,815,921 (2.2 percent of total plan assets) at June 30, 
2012.

The plans have a long-term return assumption of 7.50%. This rate was derived based upon historical experience and forward-
looking return expectations for major asset class categories.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transac-
tion between market participants at the measurement date. The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following 
hierarchy:

Level I 

 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments

Level II 

 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar instruments, or 
Unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, or 
Other inputs that are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data

Level III  Use of one or more significant unobservable inputs

The Company maintains valuation allowances when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not 
be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in the tax provision in the period of change. In 
determining whether a valuation allowance is required, the Company takes into account such factors as prior earnings history, 
expected future earnings, carryback and carryforward periods, and tax strategies that could potentially enhance the likelihood 
of realization of a deferred tax asset. During fiscal 2013, the Company continued to incur operating losses in certain foreign 
jurisdictions where the loss carryforward period is unlimited. The Company has evaluated the realizability of the net deferred tax 
assets related to these jurisdictions and concluded that based primarily upon continuing losses in these jurisdictions and failure 
to achieve targeted levels of improvement, a full valuation allowance continues to be necessary. Therefore, the Company recorded 
a net reduction in valuation allowance of $87,000. Management believes that it is more likely than not that the results of future 
operations will generate sufficient taxable income and foreign source income to realize the remaining deferred tax assets.

The Company has not provided additional U.S. income taxes on cumulative earnings of consolidated foreign subsidiaries that are 
considered to be reinvested indefinitely. The Company reaffirms its position that these earnings remain permanently invested, 
and has no plans to repatriate funds to the U.S. for the foreseeable future. These earnings relate to ongoing operations and were 
approximately $17.8 million at June 30, 2013. Such earnings could become taxable upon the sale or liquidation of these foreign 
subsidiaries or upon dividend repatriation. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of unrecognized withholding taxes and 
deferred tax liability on such earnings. The Company’s intent is for such earnings to be reinvested by the subsidiaries or to be 
repatriated only when it would be tax effective through the utilization of foreign tax credits. 

Annually, we file income tax returns in various taxing jurisdictions inside and outside the United States. In general, the tax years 
that remain subject to examination are 2009 through 2013 for our major operations in Italy, Belgium and Japan. The tax years 
open to examination in the U.S. are for years subsequent to fiscal 2011.

The Company has approximately $1.556 million of unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2013, which, if recognized would 
impact the effective tax rate. During the fiscal year the amount of unrecognized tax benefits increased primarily due to the tax 
positions taken during the fiscal year partially offset by the settlement of an IRS examination. The Company’s policy is to accrue 
interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Substantially all of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30, 2013, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate.  
As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, the amounts accrued for interest and penalties totaled $296,000 and $41,000, respectively, and are 
not included in the reconciliation above.

O. CONTINGENCIES

The Company is involved in litigation of which the ultimate outcome and liability to the Company, if any, are not presently deter-
minable. Management believes that final disposition of such litigation will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of 
operations or financial position.

 P. RESTRUCTURING OF OPERATIONS

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company recorded a pre-tax restructuring charge of $708,000 related to a workforce

reduction at its Belgian operation and the elimination of a Corporate officer position. The Belgian charge consisted of the mini-
mum legal indemnity for 22 manufacturing employees, as negotiations with the workforce were ongoing as of June 30, 2013. Sub-
sequently, negotiations were completed in July 2013, resulting in an additional restructuring charge of approximately $1,077,000 
to be recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. During fiscal 2013, the Company made no cash payments, resulting in an accrual 
balance at June 30, 2013 of $708,000.
