Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] |
INCOME TAXES | INCOME TAXES For the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $354.4 representing an effective tax rate of (446.9)% compared to an income tax benefit of $19.0, and an effective tax rate of (45.6)%, for the three months ended September 30, 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $325.0 representing an effective tax rate of (212.4)% compared to income tax expense of $43.0, and an effective tax rate of 33.0%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The significant tax benefit recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was primarily attributable to the release of the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets as discussed below. The Company recorded a valuation allowance in 2011 on U.S. deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance was recorded as of December 31, 2011, in part, due to a cumulative three-year loss position resulting primarily from a previous asbestos remeasurement charge. This cumulative loss position was considered a significant source of negative evidence and limited our ability to weigh other subjective evidence such as our projections for future growth. During 2012 and through September 30, 2013, the Company generated U.S. income and, as of September 30, 2013, is now in a cumulative three-year income position. The Company has evaluated all available positive and negative evidence at the end of the current period. Based on positive evidence, including the three-year cumulative positive income and the absence of any significant negative evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the Company's U.S. deferred tax assets will be realized, except for certain deferred tax assets attributable to State net operating losses and tax credits in certain separate return filing jurisdictions. As a result, the Company no longer maintains a valuation allowance against its U.S. deferred tax assets, and has recorded a tax benefit of approximately $374.6. The Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance against certain foreign net deferred tax assets primarily in Luxembourg, Germany and China. The net amount of the tax liability for unrecognized tax benefits may significantly change within the next 12 months due to changes in audit status, expiration of statutes of limitations and other events which could impact our determination of unrecognized tax benefits. Currently, we cannot reasonably estimate the amount by which our unrecognized tax benefits will change. The Company operates in various tax jurisdictions and is subject to examination by tax authorities in these jurisdictions. The Company is currently under examination in the Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, Korea, and the U.S. The settlement of an examination could result in changes in amounts attributable to us through the Tax Matters Agreement entered into with Exelis, Inc. and Xylem, Inc. Currently, we cannot reasonably estimate the amount of such changes.
