Note 1—Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared by Carlisle Companies Incorporated (the "Company", "we", "our", "us" or "Carlisle"). The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all disclosures as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S."), and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. and, of necessity, include some amounts that are based upon management estimates and judgments. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include assets, liabilities, net sales, and expenses of all majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.
In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments, consisting solely of adjustments of a normal, recurring nature, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. We have reclassified certain prior period amounts related to the components of property, plant and equipment to conform to current period presentation (refer to Note 8).
Note 2—New Accounting Pronouncements
New Accounting Standards Adopted
Effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). The ASU simplifies several aspects of the accounting for stock compensation, including:

• | On a prospective basis, all income tax effects of awards are recognized in the statement of operations as tax expense or benefit at the time that the awards vest or are settled, which resulted in a $0.2 million and $3.7 million discrete income tax benefit for the third quarter and first nine months of 2017, respectively.

• | On a prospective basis, all income tax effects of awards are recognized in the statement of cash flows as only operating activities.

• | The cash paid to a tax authority when shares are withheld to satisfy the tax withholding obligation are classified as financing activities on the statement of cash flows on a retrospective basis. The adoption had no impact on our cash flows presentation as we have historically presented these amounts as financing activities.

• | Companies are required to elect the method of accounting for forfeitures of share-based payments, either by recognizing such forfeitures as they occur or estimating the number of awards expected to be forfeited and adjusting such estimate when it is deemed likely to change. The Company elected to account for forfeitures as they occur and the adoption did not have a material impact on stock-based compensation expense.

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount. Instead, entities should measure an impairment charge for the excess of carrying amount over the fair value of the respective reporting unit. The Company early adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2017 and anticipates the elimination of step 2 will reduce the complexity and cost of the subsequent measurement of goodwill.

New Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 outlines a single, comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance issued by the FASB, including industry specific guidance. ASU 2014-09 provides accounting guidance for all revenue arising from contracts with customers and affects all entities that enter into contracts with customers to provide goods and services. The standard allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. The company will adopt the standard, using the modified retrospective approach, for interim and annual periods beginning on January 1, 2018. ASU 2014-09 also requires entities to disclose both quantitative and qualitative information to enable users of the financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
To date, the Company's assessment has included (1) utilizing questionnaires to assist with identifying its revenue streams, (2) performing sample contract analysis, and (3) assessing the identified differences in recognition and measurement that may result from adopting this ASU. The Company has made preliminary conclusions regarding separately-priced extended warranty contracts and variable consideration, and continues its analysis with respect to (1) contracts with multi-year prospective volume rebates and, (2) whether certain contracts’ revenues will be recognized over time or at a point in time, but does not anticipate significant changes in its current revenue recognition pattern. Based on the evaluation to date, the Company does not anticipate the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on reported current net sales; however, given the Company's acquisition strategy within diverse business segments, including the pending acquisition of Accella Holdings LLC, there may be additional revenue streams acquired prior to the adoption date. Further, the Company anticipates providing incremental disaggregated revenue disclosures, including net sales by end market in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, beginning in the first quarter of 2018. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of a cumulative catch-up adjustment, if any, and does not expect it to be significant to the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842)(“ASU 2016-02”) which requires lessees to recognize a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments, measured at the present value on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the duration of the lease term, measured at the lease liability amount adjusted for lease prepayments, lease incentives received, and initial direct costs. The lease liability and ROU asset are recognized in the balance sheet at the commencement of the lease. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases will result in straight-line expense while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019 and requires the use of a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Early application of the ASU is permitted; however, the Company plans to adopt on January 1, 2019. The Company has not yet determined the impact of adopting the standard on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, Compensation—Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, which requires employers to include only the service cost component of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost in operating income, if such measure is presented. The other components of net benefit cost, including amortization of prior service cost/credit, and settlement and curtailment effects, are to be included in non-operating income. The ASU also stipulates that only the service cost component of net benefit cost is eligible for capitalization into inventory or other tangible assets. The effective date for adoption of this guidance is January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this standard will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements, however does not believe this update will have a significant impact.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which expand an entity's ability to hedge nonfinancial risk and financial risk components, and reduce complexity in fair value hedges of interest rate risk. This ASU eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and generally requires the entire change in fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line item as the hedged item. The guidance also ceases certain documentation and assessment requirements and modifies the accounting for components excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. This ASU is effective January 1, 2019 and requires the use of a modified

retrospective approach for cash flow and net investment hedges that exist as of the date of adoption. Early adoption of the ASU is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that this standard will have on the Consolidated Financial Statements, however does not believe this update will have a significant impact on its earnings, cash flows or financial position.

The valuation of property, plant, and equipment, intangible assets, and income tax obligations is preliminary. The valuation is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2017, pending receipt of the final definitive valuation report. The goodwill recognized in the acquisition of San Jamar is attributable to its experienced workforce, expected operational improvements through implementation of the Carlisle Operating System (“COS”), opportunities for product line expansions in addition to supply chain efficiencies and other administrative opportunities, and the significant strategic value of the business to Carlisle. Of the $89.5 million of goodwill, $5.0 million is deductible for tax purposes. All of the goodwill was assigned to the CFS reporting unit, which aligns with the reportable segment. The $134.9 million value allocated to definite-lived intangible assets consists of $97.8 million of customer relationships with an estimated useful life of 13 years, various acquired technologies of $36.4 million with useful lives ranging from seven to 10 years, and a non-compete agreement of $0.7 million with an estimated useful life of two years. Indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of acquired trade names.
As a result of the acquisition, the Company recognized approximately $4.5 million of pre-acquisition tax liabilities, with a corresponding indemnification asset of $3.6 million, as the seller has indemnified Carlisle for certain of these liabilities. The indemnification asset will be subsequently measured and recognized on the same basis as the corresponding liability.

Prior Acquisition Matters
LHi Technology
In conjunction with the October 2014 acquisition of LHi Technology (“LHi”), the Company recorded an indemnification asset of $8.7 million in other long-term assets relating to the indemnification of Carlisle for certain pre-acquisition liabilities, principally related to direct and indirect tax uncertainties. During the third quarter of 2016, the Company concluded that $2.6 million of the indirect tax uncertainties were no longer probable, therefore resulting in the reversal of the related indemnification asset and the corresponding liability. During the third quarter of 2017, the escrow covering the remaining direct and indirect tax uncertainties expired and the remaining indirect tax uncertainties were no longer probable, resulting in the reversal of the $6.1 million indemnification asset and corresponding $1.5 million liability, with the net change of $4.6 million reflected in the Corporate segment and other expense (income), net in the Consolidated Statement of Earnings.
Note 5—Stock-Based Compensation
Incentive Compensation
The Company maintains an Incentive Compensation Program (the “Program”) for executives, certain other employees of the Company and its operating segments and subsidiaries, and the Company’s non-employee directors. Members of the Board of Directors that receive stock-based compensation are treated as employees for accounting purposes. Shareholders approved the Program on May 6, 2015. The Program allows for awards to eligible employees of stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and units, or other awards based on Company common stock. At September 30, 2017, 3,468,501 shares were available for grant under this plan, of which 1,295,095 shares were available for the issuance of stock awards.
Stock-based compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service period, which generally equals the stated vesting period, unless the stated vesting period exceeds the date upon which an employee reaches retirement eligibility. Stock-based compensation expense is primarily included in selling and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings and is as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions) |  | 2017 |  | 2016 |  | 2017 |  | 2016
Total pre-tax stock-based compensation |  | $ | 5.2 |  |  | $ | 4.1 |  |  | $ | 15.9 |  |  | $ | 12.7 |

Grants
The Company awarded the following stock-based compensation grants:

|  | Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017
Stock options |  | 364,675 |
Restricted stock |  | 65,637 |
Performance shares |  | 47,285 |
Restricted stock units |  | 12,952 |

For the awards granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, approximately $24.1 million will be expensed over the requisite service period for each award, which generally is consistent with the vesting period.

Stock Option Awards
Options issued under the Program generally have a three year graded vesting (i.e. one-third of total award vests on each anniversary of the grant date). All options have a maximum term life of 10 years. Shares issued to cover options under the Program may be issued from shares held in treasury, from new issuances of shares, or a combination of the two.
Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options were as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions) |  | 2017 |  | 2016 |  | 2017 |  | 2016
Pre-tax stock-based compensation |  | $ | 2.1 |  |  | $ | 1.6 |  |  | 5.9 |  |  | 4.6 |

The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) option pricing model to determine the fair value of its stock option awards. The BSM model relies on certain assumptions to estimate an option’s fair value. The weighted-average assumptions used in the determination of fair value for stock option awards in 2017 and 2016 were as follows:

|  | 2017 |  | 2016
Expected dividend yield |  | 1.3 | % |  | 1.4 | %
Expected life in years |  | 5.58 |  |  | 5.61 |
Expected volatility |  | 25.6 | % |  | 27.5 | %
Risk-free interest rate |  | 1.9 | % |  | 1.4 | %
Weighted-average fair value per share |  | $ | 24.57 |  |  | $ | 19.30 |

The expected life of options is based on the assumption that all outstanding options will be exercised at the midpoint of the valuation (if vested) or the vesting (if unvested) dates and the options’ expiration dates, utilizing historical data. The expected volatility is based on historical volatility as well as implied volatility of the Company’s options. The risk-free interest rate is based on rates of U.S. Treasury issues with a remaining life equal to the expected life of the option. The expected dividend yield is based on the most recent annual dividend payment per share, divided by the stock price at the date of grant.
Restricted Stock Awards
Restricted stock awarded under the Program is generally released to the recipient after a period of approximately three years. The grant date fair value of the 2017 restricted stock awards is based on the closing market price of the stock on the date of grant.
Performance Share Awards
Performance shares vest based on the employee rendering approximately three years of service to the Company and the attainment of a market condition over the performance period, which is based on the Company’s relative total shareholder return versus the S&P Midcap 400 Index® over a pre-determined time period as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The grant date fair value of the 2017 performance shares was estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation approach based on a three-year measurement period. Such approach entails the use of assumptions regarding the future performance of the Company’s stock and those of the S&P Midcap 400 Index®. Those assumptions include expected volatility, risk-free interest rates, correlation coefficients, and dividend reinvestment. Dividends accrue on the performance shares during the performance period and are to be paid in cash based upon the number of awards ultimately earned. The Company expenses the compensation cost associated with the performance awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of approximately three years.
For the purpose of determining diluted earnings per share, performance share awards are considered contingently issuable shares and are included in diluted earnings per share based upon the number of shares that would have been awarded had the conditions at the end of the reporting period continued until the end of the performance period. See Note 7 for further information regarding earnings per share computations.

Restricted Stock Units
The restricted stock units awarded to eligible members of the Board of Directors are fully vested and will be paid in shares of Company common stock on the earlier of the date after the Director ceases to serve as a member of the Board or upon a change in control of the Company. The grant date fair value of the 2017 restricted stock units was based on the closing market price of the stock on the date of grant.
Deferred Compensation - Equity
Certain employees are eligible to participate in the Company’s Non-qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”). Participants may elect to defer all or part of their restricted and performance shares. Participants have elected to defer 278,096 shares of Company common stock vested as of September 30, 2017, and 294,574 shares vested as of December 31, 2016. Company stock held for future issuance of vested awards is classified as deferred compensation equity in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and is recorded at grant date fair value.
Note 6—Income Taxes
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 was 33.6%. The year-to-date provision for income taxes includes taxes on earnings at an anticipated rate of approximately 33.5%, and a year-to-date discrete tax expense of $0.3 million, primarily relating to $4.2 million of expenses from net foreign exchange gains offset by $3.7 million related to the benefit from the adoption of ASU 2016-09. Under this guidance all excess tax benefits (“windfalls”) and deficiencies (“shortfalls”) related to employee stock compensation will be recognized within income tax expense. Under prior guidance, windfalls were recognized in additional paid-in capital and shortfalls were only recognized as tax expense to the extent they exceeded the pool of windfall tax benefits. The Company adopted ASU 2016-09 effective January 1, 2017. The adoption was on a prospective basis and therefore had no impact on prior periods. See Note 2 for further information related to the change in accounting for tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation.
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was 42.5% and included a year-to-date net discrete tax benefit of $0.8 million. The effective income tax rate of 42.5% included the impact of the $141.5 million pre-tax impairment charges, for which the Company recognized a tax benefit of approximately $8.9 million. The income tax provision for the third quarter of 2016 also included incremental tax expense resulting from the first six months of 2016, having reflected a forecasted annual effective rate of 33.0%.
Note 7—Earnings Per Share
The Company’s restricted shares and restricted stock units contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and, therefore, are considered participating securities for purposes of computing earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. The computation below of earnings per share excludes the income attributable to the unvested restricted shares and restricted stock units from the numerator and excludes the dilutive impact of those underlying shares from the denominator. Stock options are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share utilizing the treasury stock method, and performance share awards are included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share considering those that are contingently issuable. Neither is considered to be a participating security, as they do not contain non-forfeitable dividend rights.

In the third quarter of 2016, the Company concluded that its expectations of recovery in the near term in CBF’s related end markets had declined to the extent that it was more likely than not that the carrying value of the Wellman® trade name and CBF reporting unit were below their carrying values. Consistent with its accounting policies, prior to the adoption of ASU 2017-04, the Company performed the impairment tests for these assets through a one-step process for the Wellman® trade name and a two-step process for goodwill.
Wellman® Trade name
The Company based its estimate of fair value of the Wellman® trade name on the income approach utilizing the discounted future cash flow method. As part of estimating discounted future cash flows attributable to the Wellman® trade name, management estimated future revenues, royalty rates and discount rates. These represent the most significant assumptions used in the Company’s evaluation of the fair value of the Wellman® trade name (i.e., Level 3 measurements). As a result, management determined that the fair value of the Wellman® trade name was below its carrying value and recorded an impairment charge equal to the difference as noted above.
Goodwill
Similarly, for Step 1 of the two-step goodwill impairment test, the Company estimated the fair value of the CBF reporting unit based on the income approach utilizing the discounted cash flow method. Estimated industry weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”), revenue growth rates and earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) margins for the CBF reporting unit represent the most significant assumptions used in the Company’s evaluation of fair value (i.e., Level 3 measurements). As a result, the Company determined that the fair value of the CBF reporting unit was below its carrying value by approximately 25% and therefore Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test was required to measure the amount of the Goodwill impairment. In performing the Step 2 analysis, the Company was required to allocate the reporting units’ fair value to the estimated fair values of the CBF reporting unit’s underlying asset and liabilities, both those recognized and unrecognized, with the residual amount reflecting the implied value of goodwill at September 30, 2016.

Litigation
Over the years, the Company has been named as a defendant, along with numerous other defendants, in lawsuits in various state courts in which plaintiffs have alleged injury due to exposure to asbestos-containing brakes, which Carlisle manufactured in limited amounts between the late-1940s and the mid-1980s. In addition to compensatory awards, these lawsuits may also seek punitive damages. Generally, the Company has obtained dismissals or settlements of its asbestos-related lawsuits with no material effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company maintains insurance coverage that applies to the Company’s defense costs and payments of settlements or judgments in connection with asbestos-related lawsuits. At this time, the amount of reasonably possible additional asbestos claims, if any, is not material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or operating cash flows, although these matters could result in the Company being subject to monetary damages, costs or expenses, and charges against earnings in particular periods.
The Company may occasionally be involved in various other legal actions arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate outcome of such actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations for a particular period, or annual operating cash flows of the Company.
Environmental Matters
The Company is subject to increasingly stringent environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to air emissions, wastewater discharges, chemical and hazardous waste management, and disposal. Some of these environmental laws hold owners or operators of land or businesses liable for their own and for previous owners’ or operators’ releases of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes. Other environmental laws and regulations require the obtainment of, and compliance with, environmental permits. To date, costs of complying with environmental, health, and safety requirements have not been material, and the Company did not have any significant accruals related to potential future costs of environmental remediation as of September 30, 2017, nor are any an asset retirement obligations recorded as of that date. However, the nature of the Company’s operations and its long history of industrial activities at certain of its current or former facilities, as well as those acquired, could potentially result in material environmental liabilities or asset retirement obligations.
While the Company must comply with existing and pending climate change legislation, regulation, international treaties or accords, current laws and regulations do not have a material impact on its business, capital expenditures or financial position. Future events, including those relating to climate change or greenhouse gas regulation, could require the Company to incur expenses related to the modification or curtailment of operations, installation of pollution control equipment, or investigation and cleanup of contaminated sites.

The unrealized gains and losses resulting from these contracts were immaterial and are recognized in other income, net and partially offset corresponding foreign exchange gains and losses on these balances.
The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is included in other current assets. The fair value was estimated using observable market inputs such as forward and spot prices of the underlying exchange rate pair. Based on these inputs, derivative assets and liabilities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Note 19—Exit and Disposal Activities
The Company has undertaken operational restructuring and other cost reduction actions to streamline processes and manage costs throughout various departments within the Company.

On September 29, 2017, we announced the pending $670.0 million acquisition of Accella, a specialty polyurethane platform. Accella offers a wide range of polyurethane products and solutions across a broad diversity of markets and applications. We expect the acquisition to close by the end of October.
CCM’s net sales and EBIT are generally higher in the second and third quarters of the year due to increased construction activity during these periods. CCM’s commercial roofing business is comprised predominantly of net sales from reroofing, which derives demand from a large base of installed roofs requiring replacement in a given year, and less extensively from roofing for new commercial construction. Demand for commercial insulation products is also driven by increased enforcement of building codes related to energy efficiency. Growth in demand in the commercial construction market can be negatively impacted by changes in fiscal policy and increases in interest rates. The availability of labor to fulfill installations may also be a constraint on growth in the commercial roofing market.
CCM’s ability to increase current selling price and volume levels is subject to significant competition, in particular from competitors that have added manufacturing capacity of commercial roofing and commercial insulation products over the last several years. Raw material input costs have also rebounded from the significant declines of the last two years.
Carlisle Interconnect Technologies
We have initiated plans to relocate certain of our medical manufacturing operations in Shenzhen, China to a new manufacturing operation in Dongguan, China. We have also initiated plans to relocate certain of our aerospace manufacturing operations in Littleborough, United Kingdom to an existing manufacturing operation. As a result of these efforts, focused on improving operational efficiencies throughout the business, we anticipate continuing costs related to plant restructuring and facility rationalization throughout 2017 and 2018. We expect to generate savings beginning in 2018 from these operational efficiency improvement efforts. Refer to Note 19 for further information regarding exit and disposal activities.

CIT's net sales change in the third quarter of 2017 reflected growth in our SatCom product line and acquisitions, offset by an organic net sales decline due to softness experienced in the aerospace in-flight entertainment markets, and lower volumes driven by the continued success of in-sourcing initiatives by a large commercial aerospace customer. CIT’s EBIT and EBIT margin decline was primarily related to the sales volume decline and unfavorable mix. The EBIT and EBIT margin decline also included $4.2 million of plant restructuring and facility rationalization costs related to efforts focused on improving operational efficiencies throughout the business.

Outlook
Our expectations for CIT's 2017 net sales remain a decline of mid-single digits versus prior year.
Demand for CIT’s connectivity applications in the commercial aerospace market is dependent on increased production for new commercial aircraft as well as higher demand for in-flight connectivity applications used in both installed aircraft seating and through personal mobile devices using wireless connectivity ("Wi-Fi") access. Net sales growth for all of CIT’s primary end markets is dependent upon CIT’s continual execution of new product development to meet demand for high technology products.

For the first nine months of 2017, CFS’s net sales increase primarily reflected contribution of $64.9 million from the acquisition of San Jamar and higher demand in the healthcare market. CFS’s EBIT increase primarily reflected the San Jamar acquisition, which contributed $3.5 million to EBIT, higher organic net sales volume, and savings from COS. CFS's EBIT margin decrease in the first nine months of 2017 primarily reflected lower EBIT margin of San Jamar, including acquired inventory costs of $3.8 million.
Outlook
We continue to expect CFS to achieve 2017 full year net sales growth of approximately 40%, inclusive of San Jamar.
Sales in CFS’s healthcare market may be impacted by timing of larger equipment orders that can cause year-over-year variances.

Driven by focus on improving operational efficiencies throughout the business, we initiated facility consolidation efforts in the third quarter of 2017. These plans involve exiting our manufacturing operations in Brazil and Mexico, exiting the systems sales business in Germany and relocating the manufacturing operations currently in Angola, Indiana to our existing Bournemouth, United Kingdom manufacturing operations. We anticipate incurring approximately $13 million in charges related to these efforts, with the remaining approximate $5.0 million of costs expected to be incurred principally through the fourth quarter of 2017. Additionally, as previously announced, we are incurring costs related to the relocation of CFT's administrative functions and facilities within the U.S. Refer to Note 19 for further information regarding exit and disposal activities.

CFT's net sales growth in the third quarter of 2017 primarily reflected higher system sales in the Americas and higher standard product sales in Europe and Asia Pacific within the automotive refinish and general industrial markets, partly offset by lower systems sales in Asia Pacific. CFT’s EBIT and EBIT margin decline for the third quarter of 2017 primarily reflected accelerated restructuring and facility rationalization costs, which totaled $8.1 million in the third quarter of 2017, compared with $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2016, and continuation of investments to position the business for future growth and margin improvement.

CFT's net sales growth in the first nine months of 2017 primarily reflected higher demand for general industrial products in Europe, favorable pricing initiatives, and contribution of sales from the acquisition of MS Powder. Partially offsetting the sales growth was decreased sales volumes in Asia Pacific, primarily due to the timing of system sales. CFT’s EBIT and EBIT margin decrease for the first nine months of 2017 was primarily due to ongoing investments to position the business for future growth and margin improvement and unfavorable fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. Included in CFT's EBIT in the first nine months of 2017 were restructuring and facility rationalization costs of $9.1 million, compared with $3.6 million in the first nine months of 2016.
Outlook
The outlook across CFT’s global end markets continues to be favorable, and our expectations for net sales growth remain in the mid-single digit percent range for 2017.
Portions of CFT’s annual net sales are for the development and assembly of large fluid handling or other application systems projects. Net sales volumes at CFT are generally lower in the first and second quarters of the year due to timing of large systems orders and customer buying patterns. In addition, the timing of system sales can cause significant year-over-year sales variances.

We have aggressively addressed CBF's challenging markets by realigning its cost structure. In conjunction with such, on February 9, 2017, we announced that we would exit our manufacturing operations in Tulsa, Oklahoma and relocate the majority of those operations to our existing manufacturing facility in Medina, Ohio. This action is expected to continue through 2018. Refer to Note 19 for further information.
As part of the relocation effort, we will also invest additional capital in our Medina, Ohio facility. The capital investment is anticipated to be approximately $16.0 million to $19.0 million to expand the facility and between approximately $15.0 million to $16.0 million to purchase new, more efficient equipment to replace equipment not being relocated.
During the third quarter of 2016, indicators pointed to a longer period before CBF’s markets were expected to recover. Given these conditions, we recognized goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges of $141.5 million, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2016. Refer to Critical Accounting Estimates in this Management Discussion and Analysis for further discussion.

CBF’s net sales growth in the third quarter of 2017 primarily reflected net sales volume increases in their key end-markets of construction, mining and agriculture. CBF’s EBIT and EBIT margin increased in the third quarter of 2017 primarily reflecting the non-recurrence of $141.5 million of goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges taken in the third quarter of 2016, higher net sales volume and savings from COS. The increase was partially offset by restructuring and facility rationalization costs of $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2017 associated with the exit of our Tulsa, Oklahoma manufacturing operations.

The increase was partially offset by restructuring and facility rationalization costs of $3.0 million in first nine months of 2017 associated with the exit of our Tulsa, Oklahoma manufacturing operations.
Outlook
We continue to be cautiously optimistic that CBF has reached the bottom of the cycle in our key end markets, and look to see strong sales growth for the remainder of the year. We currently expect CBF to achieve mid-teens net sales growth in 2017.

The increase in corporate expenses in the third quarter and first nine months of 2017 primarily reflected the net impact of the expiration indemnification assets, net of underlying liability, totaling $4.6 million (refer to Note 4 for further discussion). The third quarter and first nine months of 2017 also reflect a decrease in compensation related and other relocation expenses, primarily pertaining to 2016 costs incurred in conjunction with the relocation to Scottsdale, Arizona. The decline was partially offset by increased acquisition-related transaction and legal expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
A summary of our cash and cash equivalents by region is summarized as follows:

Europe |  | $ | 60.0 |  |  | $ | 52.8 |
China |  | 25.5 |  |  | 22.5 |

U.S. subsidiaries cash and cash equivalents |  | 32.2 |  |  | 277.4 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | 147.6 |  |  | $ | 385.3 |

We maintain liquidity sources primarily consisting of cash and cash equivalents as well as borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Cash generated by operations is our primary source of liquidity. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents compared to December 31, 2016 was primarily related to the cash consideration paid for the acquisition of San Jamar, which closed in January 2017, and Drexel Metals, which closed in July 2017. Another potential source of liquidity is access to capital markets should we so choose. During the first nine months of 2017, we utilized borrowings from our revolving credit facility to fund share repurchases and capital expenditures. We anticipate funding the acquisition of Accella in the fourth quarter of 2017 with funds from our Revolving Credit Facility. See Debt Instruments below for further information.
We consider our non-U.S. cash to be permanently reinvested in our foreign operations and our current plans do not demonstrate a need, nor do we plan, to repatriate such cash to fund U.S. operations, invest in our growth initiatives or other financing activities. Further, cash held by subsidiaries in China is subject to local laws and regulations that require government approval for conversion of such cash to and from U.S. Dollars, as well as for transfer of such cash to entities that are outside of China.
Under current tax laws, should our plans change and we were to choose to repatriate some or all of the funds we have designated as indefinitely reinvested outside the U.S., such amounts would be subject to U.S. income taxes and applicable non-U.S. income and withholding taxes.
We believe we have sufficient financial resources to meet our business requirements for at least the next 12 months, including capital expenditures for worldwide manufacturing, working capital requirements, dividends, common stock repurchases, acquisitions, and strategic investments. See Debt Instruments below.

We also anticipate we will have sufficient cash on hand as well as available liquidity under our revolving credit facility to pay outstanding principal balances of our existing notes by the respective maturity dates. If these sources of liquidity have been used for other strategic purposes by the time of maturity, we intend to obtain additional liquidity by accessing the capital markets to repay the outstanding balance.

Operating Activities
We generated operating cash flows totaling $299.6 million for the first nine months of 2017 (including working capital uses of $98.6 million), compared with $355.1 million for the first nine months of 2016 (including working capital uses of $44.5 million). Lower operating cash flows in the first nine months of 2017 primarily reflect an increase working capital uses resulting from higher accounts receivable associated with higher net sales volume at Construction Materials and Brake & Friction, increased inventory in preparation for forecasted sales volumes at Construction Materials and Fluid Technologies, and timing of accrued expense payments.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities of $385.6 million for the first nine months of 2017 primarily reflects the acquisition of San Jamar in the FoodService segment and both Drexel Metals and Arbo in the Construction Materials segment. In comparison, cash used in investing activities of $179.6 million for the first nine months of 2016 reflected the acquisition of MS Powder in the Fluid Technologies segment and Micro-Coax in the Interconnect Technologies segment. Cash used to fund capital expenditures primarily reflected capital projects at CIT for expansion of operations in Mexico and the U.S., as well as projects at CCM, including capacity expansion efforts in Germany and new domestic training and research and development centers.
We expect capital expenditures will approximate $150 million as investments identified for expansion at CCM, CIT, and CFT move forward and the additional cost reduction improvements at CBF related to their footprint rationalization efforts continue.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities of $154.5 million in the first nine months of 2017 primarily reflected activity under our share repurchase program. During the first nine months of 2017, we used $266.4 million to repurchase shares compared with $61.3 million during the first nine months of 2016. In addition to increased share repurchases, dividends paid increased for the first nine months of 2017, reflecting the increased dividend rate of $1.07 per share compared with $0.95 per share for the first nine months of 2016. In addition, we also borrowed $491.0 million and repaid $306.0 million on our revolving credit facility during the first nine months of 2017. Borrowings were utilized to fund share repurchases and the aforementioned investing activities.

Debt Instruments
On February 21, 2017, we entered into a second amendment (the "Amendment") to our Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) administered by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. Among other things, the Amendment increases the lenders' aggregate revolving commitment from $600.0 million to $1.0 billion and extends the maturity date of the Credit Agreement from December 12, 2018 to February 21, 2022. The Facility has a feature that allows the Company to increase availability, at our option, by an aggregate amount of up to $500.0 million through increased commitments from existing lenders or the addition of new lenders. Under the Facility, we may also enter into commitments in the form of standby, commercial, or direct pay letters of credit for an amount not to exceed $50.0 million. The Facility provides for variable interest pricing based on the credit rating of the senior unsecured bank debt or other unsecured senior debt and is also subject to commitment fees.
At September 30, 2017, we had an outstanding balance of $185.0 million with $815.0 million of our revolving credit facility available for use. The outstanding balance at September 30, 2017 had an effective interest rate of 2.33%. We borrowed $491.0 million under the revolving credit facility during the first nine months of 2017, primarily utilized to fund share repurchases and investing activities. We have senior unsecured notes outstanding of $250 million due 2020 (at a stated interest rate of 5.125%), and $350 million due 2022 (at a stated interest rate of 3.75%) that are rated BBB by Standard & Poor’s and Baa2 by Moody’s.
Refer to Note 12 for further information on our debt instruments, including covenants.
Critical Accounting Estimates
In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., the Company’s management must make informed decisions which impact the reported amounts and related disclosures. Such decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and assumptions on which to base estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, inventory valuation, deferred revenue and extended product warranties, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, valuation of long-lived assets, and income taxes. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, terms of existing contracts, our observation of trends in the industry, information provided by our customers, and information available from other outside sources, that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the critical accounting estimates described in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s 2016 Form 10-K, as updated below, are the most important to the fair presentation of the Company’s financial conditions and results of operations. These estimates require management’s most significant judgments in the preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets
During the third quarter of 2016, we recognized a pre-tax impairment charge of $11.5 million related to our Wellman trade name, primarily reflecting a decline in estimated future revenue related to this trade name. We continue to closely monitor actual results versus expectations as well as whether to what extent any significant changes in current events or conditions result in corresponding changes to our expectations about future estimated revenues. In the first nine months of 2017, we did not identify any additional events that required us to perform an impairment test related to the Wellman trade name. If our adjusted expectations of recovery, both in size and timing, in CBF’s end markets do not materialize, or the weighted average cost of capital increases (based on increases in interest rates, market rates of return, and market volatility), the Company may be required to record additional impairment charges.
Goodwill
In the first quarter of 2017, we adopted ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (refer to Note 2). This ASU eliminated step 2 of the goodwill impairment test described in Critical Accounting Estimates in our 2016 Form 10-K. While the elimination of step 2 will reduce the cost and complexity of performing goodwill impairment tests, it could result in different amounts being recognized in future periods versus the two-step test, as we will no

longer be required to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to measure the goodwill impairment. This hypothetical purchase price allocation required the reporting unit’s underlying net assets be measured at fair value with differences from their carrying values either increasing or decreasing the hypothetical amount of goodwill and therefore increasing or decreasing any potential goodwill impairment loss.
We estimate the fair value of our reporting units primarily based on the income approach utilizing the discounted cash flow method. We also use fair value estimates derived from the market approach utilizing the public company market multiple method to validate the results of the discounted cash flow method, which require us to make assumptions about the applicability of those multiples to our reporting units. The discounted cash flow method requires us to estimate future cash flows and discount those amounts to present value. The key assumptions that drive fair value include:

• | Industry weighted-average cost of capital (“WACC”): We utilize a WACC relative to each reporting unit’s industry as the discount rate for estimated future cash flows. The WACC is intended to represent a rate of return that would be expected by a market place participant.

• | Revenue growth rates: We utilize a revenue growth rate based on historical growth patterns, industry analysis and management’s experience, which vary based on the reporting unit being evaluated.

• | EBIT margins: We utilize historical and expected EBIT margins, which vary based on the projections of each reporting unit being evaluated.

The methods and key assumptions utilized to determine the fair value of our reporting units will not change as a result of adopting this ASU. As noted above, the WACC is a key assumption utilized to determine fair value of our reporting units as well as the fair value of indefinite-lived intangible assets. As required by ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, we monitor our reporting units and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment quarterly as to whether any triggering events are present, including changes in the related WACC and if so, perform the required interim impairment tests using the methods and assumptions described above. During 2017, interest rates, and therefore the related cost of capital and assumed market rates of return, have increased. As of September 30, 2017, we did not identify any triggering events; however, if interest rates continue to rise we may be required to recognize impairment charges, which may be material.
In particular, during the third quarter of 2016, we recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $130.0 million related to our CBF reporting unit, primarily reflecting continued declines in sales related to overall market conditions and lower expectations of recovery in CBF’s various end markets. We continue to closely monitor actual results versus expectations as well as whether and to what extent any significant changes in current events or conditions result in corresponding changes to our expectations about future estimated cash flows as well as the weighted average cost of capital. If our adjusted expectations of recovery, both in size and timing, in CBF’s end markets do not materialize, or the WACC increases (based on increases in interest rates, market rates of return, and market volatility), we may be required to record additional intangible asset and goodwill impairment charges, which may be material. At December 31, 2016, goodwill allocated to the CBF reporting unit totaled $96.4 million and the fair value of the CBF reporting unit exceeded its carrying value by 5%. In the first nine months of 2017, we did not identify any additional events that required us to perform an impairment test related to goodwill of the CBF reporting unit.
While we believe our conclusions regarding the estimates of fair value of our CBF reporting unit, and the Wellman trade name are appropriate, these estimates are subject to uncertainty and by nature include judgments and estimates regarding various factors including the rate and extent of growth in the markets that our reporting units serve, the realization of future sales price increases, fluctuations in exchange rates, fluctuations in price and availability of key raw materials, future operating efficiencies, and discount rates.

Special Items
Special items are items affecting comparability between periods and include costs, and losses or gains related to, among other things, cost reductions, growth and profitability improvement initiatives, and other events outside of core business operations (such as asset impairments, exit and disposal and facility rationalization charges, costs of and related to acquisitions, gains and losses from and costs related to divestitures). Because these special items affect our, or any particular operating segment's, financial condition or results in a specific period in which they are recognized, we believe it is appropriate to present the total of these special items to provide information regarding the comparability of results of operations period to period.

Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally use words such as “expect,” “foresee,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “project,” “should,” “estimate,” “will,” “plans”, "intends", “forecast” and similar expressions, and reflect our expectations concerning the future. Such statements are made based on known events and circumstances at the time of publication, and as such, are subject in the future to unforeseen risks and uncertainties. It is possible that our future performance may differ materially from current expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements, due to a variety of factors such as: increasing price and product/service competition by foreign and domestic competitors, including new entrants; technological developments and changes; the ability to continue to introduce competitive new products and services on a timely, cost-effective basis; our mix of products/services; increases in raw material costs which cannot be recovered in product pricing; domestic and foreign governmental and public policy changes including environmental and industry regulations; threats associated with and efforts to combat terrorism; protection and validity of patent and other intellectual property rights; the successful integration and identification of our strategic acquisitions; the cyclical nature of our businesses; and the outcome of pending and future litigation and governmental proceedings. In addition, such statements could be affected by general industry and market conditions and growth rates, the condition of the financial and credit markets, and general domestic and international economic conditions including interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations. Further, any conflict in the international arena may adversely affect general market conditions and our future performance. We undertake no duty to update forward-looking statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk
There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. For additional information, refer to Item 7A of the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation and as of September 30, 2017, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
(b) There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Litigation
Over the years, we have been named as a defendant, along with numerous other defendants, in lawsuits in various state courts in which plaintiffs have alleged injury due to exposure to asbestos-containing brakes, which Carlisle manufactured in limited amounts between the late-1940’s and the mid-1980’s. In addition to compensatory awards, these lawsuits may also seek punitive damages. We typically obtains dismissals or settlements of our asbestos-related lawsuits with no material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. We maintain insurance coverage that applies to our defense costs and payments of settlements or judgments in connection with asbestos-related lawsuits, excluding punitive damages. Based on an ongoing evaluation, we believe that the resolution of our pending asbestos claims will not have a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows, although these matters could result in the Company being subject to monetary damages, costs or expenses, and charges against earnings in particular periods.
In addition, we may occasionally be involved in various other legal actions arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate outcome of such actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or annual operating cash flows of the Company, but may have a more than inconsequential impact on our results of operations for a particular period.

Environmental Matters
We are subject to increasingly stringent environmental laws and regulations, including those relating to air emissions, wastewater discharges, chemical and hazardous waste management and disposal. Some of these environmental laws hold owners or operators of land or businesses liable for their own and for previous owners’ or operators’ releases of hazardous or toxic substances or wastes. Other environmental laws and regulations require the obtainment, and compliance with, environmental permits. To date, costs of complying with environmental, health and safety requirements have not been material. The nature of our operations and our long history of industrial activities at certain of our current or former facilities, as well as those acquired could potentially result in material environmental liabilities.
While we must comply with existing and pending climate change legislation, regulation, international treaties or accords, current laws and regulations do not have a material impact on its business, capital expenditures or financial position. Future events, including those relating to climate change or greenhouse gas regulation could require the Company to incur expenses related to the modification or curtailment of operations, installation of pollution control equipment, or investigation and cleanup of contaminated sites.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017, there were no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in “PART I—Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Company’s 2016 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
