1. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of IDEX Corporation (“IDEX” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The statements are unaudited but include all adjustments, consisting only of recurring items, except as noted, that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the information set forth herein. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations set forth in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09 which introduces a new five-step revenue recognition model. Under ASU 2014-09, an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU also requires disclosures sufficient to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. This standard was initially released as effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016; however, in July 2015 the FASB approved a one year deferral of this standard, with a new effective date for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The new guidelines can be implemented using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and has not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03 which simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs. Under ASU 2015-03, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on our consolidated financial statements and does not expect it to have a material impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
2. Acquisitions
All of the Company’s acquisitions have been accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the accounts of the acquired companies, after adjustments to reflect fair values assigned to assets and liabilities, have been included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition.
The Company incurred $1.0 million of acquisition-related transaction costs in the three months ended June 30, 2015 resulting in a total of $1.2 million of acquisition-related transaction costs year to date. These costs were recorded in selling, general and administrative expense and were related to completed transactions, pending transactions and potential transactions, including transactions that ultimately were not completed. During the three months ending June 30, 2015, the Company recorded within cost of sales $0.7 million of fair value inventory charges associated with these acquisitions.
2015 Acquisitions
On May 29, 2015, the Company acquired the stock of Novotema, SpA ("Novotema"), a leader in the design, manufacture and sale of specialty sealing solutions for use in the building products, gas control, transportation, industrial and water markets. The business was acquired to complement and create synergies with our existing sealing group. Located in Villango, Italy, Novotema has annual revenues of $33 million and will operate in our Health & Science Technologies segment. Novotema was acquired for cash consideration of approximately $60.7 million (€55.6 million). The entire purchase price was funded with cash on hand. Goodwill and intangible assets recognized as part of this transaction were $34.9 million and $20.1 million, respectively. The $34.9 million of goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

On June 10, 2015, the Company acquired the stock of Alfa Valvole, S.r.l ("Alfa"), a leader in the design, manufacture and sale of specialty valve products for use in the chemical, petro-chemical, energy and sanitary markets. The business was acquired to expand our valve capabilities. Located in Casorezzo, Italy, Alfa has annual revenues of approximately $33 million and will operate in our Fluid & Metering Technologies segment. Alfa was acquired for cash consideration of $112.6 million (€99.8 million). The entire purchase price was funded with cash on hand. Preliminary goodwill and intangible assets recognized as part of this transaction were $59.6 million and $44.6 million, respectively. The $59.6 million of goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.
The Company made an initial allocation of the purchase price for the Alfa and Novotema acquisitions as of the date of acquisition based on its understanding of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. In the months after closing, as the Company obtains additional information about these assets and liabilities, including tangible and intangible asset appraisals, and learns more about the newly acquired businesses, we will refine the estimates of fair value and more accurately allocate the purchase price. Only items identified as of the acquisition date are considered for subsequent adjustment. The Company is continuing to evaluate the valuation of inventory associated with the Alfa acquisition and is also in the process of obtaining or finalizing valuations of intangible and tangible assets for the Alfa and Novotema acquisitions. The Company will make appropriate adjustments to the purchase price allocations prior to the completion of the measurement period, as required.
The allocation of the acquisition costs to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values, is as follows:

Current assets, net of cash acquired | $ | 40,296 |
Property, plant and equipment | 12,233 |
Goodwill | 94,481 |
Intangible assets | 64,711 |
Total assets acquired | 211,721 |
Current liabilities | (15,321 | )
Deferred tax liability | (20,863 | )
Other liabilities | (2,204 | )
Net assets acquired | $ | 173,333 |

Acquired intangible assets consist of trade names, customer relationships and unpatented technology. The goodwill recorded for the acquisitions reflect the strategic fit, revenue and earnings growth potential of this business.
The acquired intangible assets and weighted average amortization periods are as follows:

| Total |  | Weighted Average Life
Trade names | $ | 4,352 |  |  | 15
Customer relationships | 50,074 |  |  | 14
Unpatented technology | 10,285 |  |  | 8
Acquired intangible assets | $ | 64,711 |  |  |

2014 Acquisitions
On April 28, 2014, the Company acquired the stock of Aegis Flow Technologies ("Aegis"), a leader in the design, manufacture and sale of specialty chemical processing valves for use in the chemical, petro-chemical, chlor-alkali, pharmaceutical, semiconductor and pulp/paper industries. Located in Geismar, Louisiana, Aegis operates in our Chemical, Food & Process platform within our Fluid & Metering Technologies segment. Aegis was acquired for cash consideration of $25.0 million. The entire purchase price was funded with borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility. Goodwill and intangible assets recognized as part of this transaction were $7.7 million and $8.8 million, respectively. The $7.7 million of goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.

4. Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings per common share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock (basic) plus common stock equivalents outstanding (diluted) during the period. Common stock equivalents consist of stock options, which have been included in the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding using the treasury stock method, unvested shares, performance share units, and shares issuable in connection with certain deferred compensation agreements (“DCUs”).
ASC 260 “Earnings Per Share” provides that all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends participate in undistributed earnings with common shareholders. If awards are considered participating securities, the Company is required to apply the two-class method of computing basic and diluted earnings per share. The Company
9

(Amounts in thousands except share data and where otherwise indicated)
(unaudited)
has determined that its outstanding unvested shares are participating securities. Accordingly, earnings per common share are computed using the more dilutive of the treasury stock method and the two-class method prescribed by ASC 260. For purposes of calculating diluted EPS, net income attributable to common shareholders was reduced by $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively; and $0.4 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Basic weighted average shares reconciles to diluted weighted average shares as follows:

| Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30,
| 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2015 |  | 2014
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding | 77,466 |  |  | 80,106 |  |  | 77,731 |  |  | 80,317 |
Dilutive effect of stock options, unvested shares, performance share units and DCUs | 831 |  |  | 1,043 |  |  | 845 |  |  | 1,045 |
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding | 78,297 |  |  | 81,149 |  |  | 78,576 |  |  | 81,362 |

Options to purchase approximately 0.9 million and 0.5 million shares of common stock for both the three and the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the effect of their inclusion would be antidilutive.
5. Inventories
The components of inventories as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 were:

| June 30, 2015 |  | December 31, 2014
Raw materials and component parts | $ | 147,608 |  |  | $ | 137,584 |
Work in process | 44,625 |  |  | 37,178 |
Finished goods | 68,581 |  |  | 62,869 |
Total | $ | 260,814 |  |  | $ | 237,631 |

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost, which includes material, labor, and factory overhead, is determined on a FIFO basis.
6. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2015, by reportable business segment, were as follows:

| Fluid & Metering Technologies |  | Health & Science Technologies |  | Fire & Safety/ Diversified Products |  | Total
Balance at December 31, 2014 | $ | 524,149 |  |  | $ | 563,465 |  |  | $ | 233,663 |  |  | $ | 1,321,277 |

Acquisitions | 59,562 |  |  | 34,919 |  |  | — |  |  | 94,481 |
Balance at June 30, 2015 | $ | 575,464 |  |  | $ | 598,487 |  |  | $ | 223,709 |  |  | $ | 1,397,660 |

ASC 350 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value. Annually on October 31, goodwill and other acquired intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment. The Company did not consider there to be any triggering event that would require an interim impairment assessment, therefore none of the goodwill or other acquired intangible assets with indefinite lives were tested for impairment during the six months ended June 30, 2015. Based on the results of our annual impairment test at October

| June 30, 2015 |  | December 31, 2014
Revolving Facility | $ | 225,000 |  |  | $ | 115,000 |
2.58% Senior Euro Notes, due June 2015 | — |  |  | 98,456 |
4.5% Senior Notes, due December 2020 | 299,051 |  |  | 298,975 |

Less current portion | 469 |  |  | 98,946 |
Total long-term borrowings | $ | 874,777 |  |  | $ | 765,006 |

On June 23, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) along with certain of its subsidiaries, as borrowers (the “Borrowers”), Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender and an issuer of letters of credit, with other agents party thereto. The Credit Agreement replaces the Company’s existing five-year, $700 million credit agreement, dated as of June 27, 2011, which was due to expire on June 27, 2016.
The Credit Agreement consists of a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of $700 million with a final maturity date of June 23, 2020. The maturity date may be extended under certain conditions for an additional one-year term. Up to $75 million of the Revolving Facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit. Additionally, up to $50 million of the Revolving Facility is available to the Company for swing line loans, available on a same-day basis.
Proceeds of the Revolving Facility are available for use by the Borrowers for working capital and other general corporate
purposes, including refinancing existing debt of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company may request increases in the
lending commitments under the Credit Agreement, but the aggregate lending commitments pursuant to such increases may not
exceed $350 million. The Company has the right, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, to designate
certain foreign subsidiaries of the Company as borrowers under the Credit Agreement. In connection with any such designation,
the Company is required to guarantee the obligations of any such subsidiaries.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at either an alternate base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin. Such applicable margin is based on the Company’s senior, unsecured, long-term debt rating and can range from .91% to 1.50%. Based on the Company's credit rating at June 30, 2015, the applicable margin was 1.10%. Interest is payable (a) in the case of base rate loans, quarterly, and (b) in the case of LIBOR rate loans, on the maturity date of the borrowing, or quarterly from the effective date for borrowings exceeding three months.
The Credit Agreement requires payment to the lenders of a facility fee based upon (a) the amount of the lenders’ commitments under the credit facility from time to time and (b) the applicable corporate credit ratings of the Company. Voluntary prepayments of any loans and voluntary reductions of the unutilized portion of the commitments under the credit

(unaudited)
facility are permissible without penalty, subject to break funding payments and minimum notice and minimum reduction amount requirements.
The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants that the Company believes are usual and customary for
senior unsecured credit agreements, including a financial covenant requiring the maintenance of a 3.50 to 1.0 or lower leverage
ratio, which is the ratio of the Company’s consolidated total debt to its consolidated EBITDA, each as defined in the Credit
Agreement.
The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations (each of which is subject to customary exceptions for
financings of this type) on our ability to grant liens; enter into transactions resulting in fundamental changes (such as mergers or sales of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company); restrict subsidiary dividends or other subsidiary distributions; enter into transactions with the Company’s affiliates; and incur certain additional subsidiary debt.
The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default (subject to grace periods, as appropriate) including among others: nonpayment of principal, interest or fees; breach of the representations or warranties in any material respect; breach of the financial, affirmative or negative covenants; payment default on, or acceleration of, other material indebtedness; bankruptcy or insolvency; material judgments entered against the Company or any of its subsidiaries; certain specified events under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended; certain changes in control of the Company; and the invalidity or unenforceability of the Credit Agreement or other documents associated with the Credit Agreement.
At June 30, 2015, $225.0 million was outstanding under the Revolving Facility, with $7.6 million of outstanding letters of credit, resulting in net available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Facility at June 30, 2015 of approximately $467.4 million.
During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company paid the balance of the 2.58% Senior Euro Notes, upon its maturity, using cash on hand.
Other borrowings of $1.8 million at June 30, 2015 consisted primarily of debt at international locations maintained for working capital purposes. Interest is payable on the outstanding debt balances at rates ranging from 0.2% to 1.3% per annum.
There are two key financial covenants that the Company is required to maintain in connection with the Revolving Facility, which requires a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0 to 1 and a maximum leverage ratio of 3.50 to 1. At June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with both of these financial covenants. There are no financial covenants relating to the 4.5% Senior Notes or 4.2% Senior Notes; however, both are subject to cross-default provisions.
10. Derivative Instruments
The Company enters into cash flow hedges from time to time to reduce the exposure to variability in certain expected future cash flows. The type of cash flow hedges the Company enters into includes foreign currency contracts and interest rate exchange agreements that effectively convert a portion of floating-rate debt to fixed-rate debt and are designed to reduce the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense.
The effective portion of gains or losses on interest rate exchange agreements is reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity and reclassified into net income in the same period or periods in which the hedged transaction affects net income. See Note 13 for the amount of loss reclassified into income for interest rate contracts for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The remaining gain or loss in excess of the cumulative change in the present value of future cash flows or the hedged item, if any, is recognized into net income during the period of change.
Fair values relating to derivative financial instruments reflect the estimated amounts that the Company would receive or pay to sell or buy the contracts based on quoted market prices of comparable contracts at each balance sheet date. As of June 30, 2015, the Company did not have any interest rate contracts outstanding.
In 2010 and 2011, the Company entered into two separate forward starting interest rate contracts in anticipation of the issuance of the 4.2% Senior Notes and the 4.5% Senior Notes. The Company cash settled these two interest rate contracts in 2010 and 2011 for a total of $68.9 million, which is being amortized into interest expense over the 10 year term of the debt instruments. Approximately $6.9 million of the pre-tax amount included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2015 will be recognized to net income over the next 12 months as the underlying hedged transactions are realized.

11. Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The standard utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

• | Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

• | Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

• | Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The following table summarizes the basis used to measure the Company’s financial assets at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheet at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

| Basis of Fair Value Measurements
| Balance at June 30, 2015 |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3
Money market investment | $ | 44,409 |  |  | $ | 44,409 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
Available for sale securities | 4,973 |  |  | 4,973 |  |  | — |  |  | — |

| Basis of Fair Value Measurements
| Balance at December 31, 2014 |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3
Money market investment | $ | 21,094 |  |  | $ | 21,094 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |
Available for sale securities | 4,513 |  |  | 4,513 |  |  | — |  |  | — |

There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2 during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 or the year ended December 31, 2014.
The carrying value of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates their fair values because of the short term nature of these instruments. At June 30, 2015, the fair value of the outstanding indebtedness under our Revolving Facility, 4.5% Senior Notes and 4.2% Senior Notes, based on quoted market prices and current market rates for debt with similar credit risk and maturity, was approximately $873.9 million compared to the carrying value of $873.4 million. This fair value measurement is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy since it is determined based upon significant inputs observable in the market, including interest rates on recent financing transactions to entities with a credit rating similar to ours.
12. Restructuring
During the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company recorded restructuring costs as a part of restructuring initiatives that support the implementation of key strategic efforts designed to facilitate long-term, sustainable, growth through cost reduction actions, primarily consisting of employee reductions and facility rationalization. The costs incurred related to these initiatives were included in Restructuring expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations while the related accruals were included in Accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Severance costs primarily consisted of severance benefits through payroll continuation, COBRA subsidies, outplacement services, conditional separation costs and employer tax liabilities, while exit costs primarily consisted of asset disposals or impairments and lease exit costs.

(unaudited)
Restructuring accruals of $1.2 million and $6.1 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, are recorded in Accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Severance benefits are expected to be paid by the end of 2015 using cash from operations. The changes in the restructuring accrual for the six months ended June 30, 2015 are as follows:

Balance at January 1, 2015 |  | $ | 6,056 |
Payments, utilization and other |  | (4,888 | )
Balance at June 30, 2015 |  | $ | 1,168 |

On July 22, 2015 the Company announced that there would be additional restructuring actions taken in the third and fourth quarters of 2015 to better align the Company's costs and operations with current market conditions. The restructuring expense associated with these actions is not expected to exceed $8 million and will be completed by the end of the year.
13. Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company’s policy is to recognize compensation cost on a straight-line basis, assuming forfeitures, over the requisite service period for the entire award. Classification of stock compensation cost within the Consolidated Statements of Operations is consistent with classification of cash compensation for the same employees.
As of June 30, 2015, there was $13.5 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years, $11.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested shares that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years, and $8.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to performance share units that is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.1 years.
A summary of the Company’s stock option activity as of June 30, 2015, and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2015, is presented in the following table:

18. Income Taxes
The Company’s provision for income taxes is based upon estimated annual tax rates for the year applied to federal, state and foreign income. The provision for income taxes decreased to $28.9 million in the second quarter of 2015 from $29.8 million in the same period of 2014. The effective tax rate increased to 29.4% for the second quarter of 2015 compared to 29.3% in the same period of 2014 due to the mix of global pre-tax income among jurisdictions. Additionally, the effective tax rate for the comparable period of the prior year was favorably impacted by the enactment of state income tax laws.
The provision for income taxes decreased to $55.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 from $59.4 million in the same period of 2014. The effective tax rate increased to 29.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to 28.9% in the same period of 2014 due to the mix of global pre-tax income among jurisdictions. Additionally, the effective tax rate for the comparable period of the prior year was favorably impacted by the enactment of state income tax laws and settlements with taxing authorities primarily related to purchase price adjustments for prior period acquisitions.
The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. Due to the potential for resolution of federal, state and foreign examinations, and the expiration of various statutes of limitation, it is reasonably possible that the Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits balance may change within the next twelve months by a range of zero to $2.2 million.
19. Subsequent Events
On July 1, 2015, the Company announced the acquisition of CiDRA Precision Services, LLC for cash consideration of approximately $19.5 million with an earn-out of up to $5.5 million contingent on the achievement of financial objectives in the 12-month period following the close. CiDRA Precision Services, LLC, located in Wallingford, CT, is a leader in the design, manufacture and sale of microfluidic components serving the life science, health and industrial markets. CiDRA Precision Services, LLC has annual revenues of approximately $9 million and will operate within our Health & Sciences Technologies segment.
On July 15, 2015 the Company announced the appointment of Eric Ashleman to the role of Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Ashleman will be responsible for the operations of all IDEX business units and segments. The Company is currently in the process of assessing the impact, if any, on internal controls and financial reporting.

These statements relate to, among other things, operating results and are indicated by words or phrases such as “expects,” "anticipates," “should,” “will,” and similar words or phrases. These statements are subject to inherent uncertainties and risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from those statements. The risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those risks and uncertainties identified under the heading “Risk Factors” in item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, and information contained in subsequent reports filed by IDEX with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Investors are cautioned not to rely unduly on forward-looking statements when evaluating the information presented here.
Overview and Outlook
IDEX is an applied solutions company specializing in fluid and metering technologies, health and science technologies, and fire, safety and other diversified products built to customers’ specifications. IDEX’s products are sold in niche markets to a wide range of industries throughout the world. Accordingly, IDEX's businesses are affected by levels of industrial activity and economic conditions in the U.S. and in other countries where it does business and by the relationship of the U.S. Dollar to other currencies. Levels of capacity utilization and capital spending in certain industries and overall industrial activity are among the factors that influence the demand for IDEX’s products.
The Company has three reportable business segments: Fluid & Metering Technologies, Health & Science Technologies and Fire & Safety/Diversified Products. Within our three reportable segments, the Company maintains six platforms, where we will invest in organic growth and acquisitions with a strategic view towards a platform with the potential for at least $500 million in revenue, and seven groups, where we will focus on organic growth and strategic acquisitions. The Fluid & Metering Technologies segment contains the Energy, Water (comprised of Water Services & Technology and Diaphragm & Dosing Pump Technology), and Chemical, Food & Process platforms as well as the Agricultural group (comprised of Banjo). The Health & Science Technologies segment contains the IDEX Optics & Photonics, Scientific Fluidics and Material Processing Technologies platforms, as well as the Sealing Solutions and the Industrial groups (comprised of Micropump and Gast). The Fire & Safety/Diversified Products segment is comprised of the Dispensing, Rescue, Band-It, and Fire Suppression groups. Each platform/group is comprised of one or more of our 15 reporting units: five reporting units within Fluid & Metering Technologies (Energy; Chemical, Food, & Process; Water Services & Technology; Banjo; and Diaphragm & Dosing Pump Technology); six reporting units within Health & Science Technologies (IDEX Optics and Photonics; Scientific Fluidics; Material Processing Technologies; Sealing Solutions; Micropump; and Gast); and four reporting units within Fire & Safety/Diversified Products (Dispensing, Rescue, Band-It, and Fire Suppression).
The Fluid & Metering Technologies segment designs, produces and distributes positive displacement pumps, flow meters, injectors, and other fluid-handling pump modules and systems and provides flow monitoring and other services for the food, chemical, general industrial, water and wastewater, agricultural and energy industries.
The Health & Science Technologies segment designs, produces and distributes a wide range of precision fluidics, rotary lobe pumps, centrifugal and positive displacement pumps, roll compaction and drying systems used in beverage, food processing, pharmaceutical and cosmetics, pneumatic components and sealing solutions, very high precision, low-flow rate pumping solutions required in analytical instrumentation, clinical diagnostics and drug discovery, high performance molded and extruded, biocompatible medical devices and implantables, air compressors used in medical, dental and industrial applications, optical components and coatings for applications in the fields of scientific research, defense, biotechnology, aerospace, telecommunications and electronics manufacturing, laboratory and commercial equipment used in the production of micro and nano scale materials, precision photonic solutions used in life sciences, research and defense markets, and precision gear and peristaltic pump technologies that meet exacting original equipment manufacturer specifications.
The Fire & Safety/Diversified Products segment produces firefighting pumps and controls, rescue tools, lifting bags and other components and systems for the fire and rescue industry, and engineered stainless steel banding and clamping devices used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications, precision equipment for dispensing, metering and mixing colorants and paints used in a variety of retail and commercial businesses around the world.
Management’s primary measurements of segment performance are sales, operating income, and operating margin. In addition, due to the highly acquisitive nature of the Company, the determination of operating income includes amortization of acquired intangible assets and, as a result, management reviews depreciation and amortization as a percentage of sales. These measures are

monitored by management and significant changes in operating results versus current trends in end markets and variances from forecasts are analyzed with segment management.
In this report, references to organic sales, a non-GAAP measure, refers to sales from continuing operations calculated according to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States but excludes (1) sales from acquired businesses during the first twelve months of ownership and (2) the impact of foreign currency translation. The portion of sales attributable to foreign currency translation is calculated as the difference between (a) the period-to-period change in organic sales and (b) the period-to-period change in organic sales after applying prior period foreign exchange rates to the current year period. Management believes that reporting organic sales provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying growth trends in our business and facilitating easier comparisons of our revenue performance with prior and future periods and to our peers. The Company excludes the effect of foreign currency translation from organic sales because foreign currency translation is not under management’s control, is subject to volatility and can obscure underlying business trends. The Company excludes the effect of acquisitions because the nature, size, and number of acquisitions can vary dramatically from period to period and between the Company and its peers and can also obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult. In addition, this report references EBITDA. This non-GAAP measure has been reconciled to net income and operating income in Item 2 under the heading "Non-GAAP Disclosures." Given the acquisitive nature of the Company, management believes that EBITDA provides important information about the performance of the Company's businesses by, among other matters, eliminating the impact of higher amortization expense at recently acquired businesses.
The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and the financial results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated.
Some of our key financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2015 are as follows:

• | Sales of $514.9 million decrease d 6%; organic sales — excluding acquisitions and foreign currency translation — were down 2%.

• | EBITDA of $128.2 million was 25% of sales and covered interest expense by more than 12 times.

• | Operating income of $109.9 million decreased 2%.

• | Net income decreased 3% to $69.6 million.

• | Diluted EPS of $0.89 increased 1 cent, or 1%.

Some of our key financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2015 are as follows:

• | Sales of $1,017.1 million decreased 7%; organic sales — excluding acquisitions and foreign currency translation — were down 3%.

• | EBITDA of $250.2 million was 25% of sales and covered interest expense by more than 11 times

• | Operating income of $211.7 million decreased 6%.

• | Net income decreased 7% to $135.5 million.

• | Diluted EPS of $1.72 decreased 7 cent s, or 4%.

Given the Company’s current outlook, we are projecting third quarter 2015 diluted EPS in the range of $0.88 to $0.90 with full year 2015 diluted EPS of $3.50 to $3.60.
Results of Operations
The following is a discussion and analysis of our results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. Segment operating income and EBITDA excludes unallocated corporate operating expenses.

Consolidated Results in the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 Compared with the Same Period of 2014

(In thousands) | Three Months Ended June 30,
| 2015 |  | 2014
Net sales | $ | 514,881 |  |  | $ | 546,693 |
Operating income | 109,909 |  |  | 112,088 |
Operating margin | 21.3 | % |  | 20.5 | %

For the second quarter of 2015, Fluid & Metering Technologies contributed 42% of sales, 41% of operating income and 41% of EBITDA; Health & Science Technologies accounted for 36% of sales, 34% of operating income and 36% of EBITDA; and Fire & Safety/Diversified Products represented 22% of sales, 25% of operating income and 23% of EBITDA. The aforementioned percentages are calculated on the basis of total segment (and not total Company) sales, operating income and EBITDA.
Sales in the three months ended June 30, 2015 were $514.9 million, a 6% decrease from the comparable period last year. This decrease reflects a 2% decrease in organic sales, a 1% increase from acquisitions (Aegis - April 2014, Novotema - June 2015 and Alfa - June 2015) and 5% unfavorable foreign currency translation. Organic sales to customers outside the U.S. represented approximately 51% of total sales in the second quarter of 2015 compared to 50% during the same period of 2014.
Gross profit of $231.6 million in the second quarter of 2015 decreased $9.5 million, or 4%, from the same period in 2014. Gross margin of 45.0% in the second quarter of 2015 increased from 44.1% during the same period in 2014. The increase in gross margin is primarily due to productivity and from benefits of the Company’s restructuring actions taken in the prior year.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $121.7 million in the second quarter of 2015 from $129.0 million during the same period of 2014. The change reflects a decrease in volume related expenses of $8.7 million, partially offset by approximately $1.4 million for incremental costs from the Aegis, Novotema and Alfa acquisitions. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses were 23.7% for the second quarter of 2015 and 23.6% for the same period of 2014.
Operating income of $109.9 million in the second quarter of 2015 was down from the $112.1 million recorded during the same period in 2014, primarily reflecting a decrease in volume. Operating margin of 21.3% in the second quarter of 2015 was up from 20.5% during the same period of 2014, primarily due to productivity.
Other expense - net was $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2015 compared with $0.1 million of other expense - net recorded in the same period in 2014, primarily due to foreign currency translation loss.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating Activities
At June 30, 2015, the Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $311.5 million, of which $254.2 million was held outside of the United States. At June 30, 2015, working capital was $625.9 million and the current ratio was 3.0 to 1. Cash flows from operating activities for the first six months of 2015 decreased $17.8 million, or 11%, to $148.4 million compared to the first six months of 2014, due to restructuring expenses and lower earnings.
Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities for the first six months of 2015 increased $147.9 million, or 300% to $197.3 million compared to the same period of 2014, primarily due the acquisition of Novotema and Alfa.
Cash flows provided by operating activities were more than adequate to fund capital expenditures of $23.8 million and $23.3 million in the first six months of 2015 and 2014, respectively. Capital expenditures were generally for machinery and equipment that improved productivity, tooling, business system technology, replacement of equipment and investments in new facilities. Management believes the Company has sufficient capacity in its plants and equipment to meet expected needs for future growth.
Financing Activities
Cash flows used in financing activities for the first six months of 2015 increased $55.4 million, or 78% to $126.1 million compared to the same period of 2014, primarily as a result of the payoff of the 2.58% Senior Euro Note and purchases of common stock.
On June 23, 2015, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) along with certain of its subsidiaries, as borrowers (the “Borrowers”), Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender and an issuer of letters of credit, with other agents party thereto. The Credit Agreement replaces the Company’s existing five-year, $700 million credit agreement, dated as of June 27, 2011, which was due to expire in June 27, 2016.
The Credit Agreement consists of the Revolving Facility, which is a $700.0 million unsecured, multi-currency bank credit facility expiring on June 23, 2020. At June 30, 2015, there were $225.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility and outstanding letters of credit totaled approximately $7.6 million. The net available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Facility at June 30, 2015, was approximately $467.4 million. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility bear interest, at either an alternate base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin. Such applicable margin is based on the Company’s senior, unsecured, long-term debt rating and can range from .91% to 1.50%. Based on the Company’s credit rating at June 30, 2015, the applicable margin was 1.10%. Interest is payable (a) in the case of base rate loans, quarterly, and (b) in

the case of LIBOR rate loans, on the maturity date of the borrowing, or quarterly from the effective date for borrowings exceeding three months. An annual Revolving Facility fee, also based on the Company’s credit rating, is currently 15 basis points and is payable quarterly.
In the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company paid off the balance of the 2.58% Senior Euro Notes, upon its maturity, using cash on the balance sheet.
There are two key financial covenants that the Company is required to maintain in connection with the Revolving Facility, which requires a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0 to 1 and a maximum leverage ratio of 3.50 to 1. At June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with both of these financial covenants, as the Company’s interest coverage ratio was 12.56 to 1 and the leverage ratio was 1.64 to 1. There are no financial covenants relating to the 4.5% Senior Notes or 4.2% Senior Notes; however, both are subject to cross-default provisions.
On November 6, 2014, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a $400.0 million increase in the authorized level for repurchases of common stock. Repurchases under the program will be funded with future cash flow generation or borrowings available under the Revolving Facility. During the first six months of 2015, the Company purchased a total of 1.5 million shares at a cost of $113.3 million, of which $2.3 million was settled in July 2015. As of June 30, 2015, the amount of share repurchase authorization remaining is $432.2 million.
The Company believes current cash, cash from operations and cash available under the Revolving Facility will be sufficient to meet its operating cash requirements, planned capital expenditures, interest on all borrowings, pension and postretirement funding requirements, expected share repurchases and annual dividend payments to holders of the Company’s stock for the remainder of 2015. Additionally, in the event that suitable businesses are available for acquisition upon acceptable terms, the Company may obtain all or a portion of the financing for these acquisitions through the incurrence of additional borrowings.
Non-GAAP Disclosures
The following is a reconciliation of EBITDA to the comparable measures of net income and operating income, as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We have reconciled consolidated EBITDA to net income and we have reconciled segment EBITDA to segment operating income, as we do not allocate interest and income taxes to our segments. EBITDA means earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Given the acquisitive nature of the Company, which results in a higher level of amortization expense at recently acquired businesses, management uses EBITDA, in addition to operating income, to provide another way to measure financial performance of businesses across our three segments. Management also uses EBITDA for enterprise valuation purposes. We believe that EBITDA is also useful to some investors as an indicator of the strength and performance of the Company's and its segment's ongoing business operations and a way to evaluate and compare operating performance and value companies within our industry. However, it should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other items calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The definition of EBITDA used here may differ from that used by other companies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company is subject to market risk associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. The Company may, from time to time, enter into foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps on its debt when it believes there is a financial advantage in doing so. A treasury risk management policy, adopted by the Board of Directors, provides for procedures and controls over derivative financial and commodity instruments, including foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps. Under the policy, the Company does not use derivative financial or commodity instruments for trading purposes, and the use of these instruments is subject to strict approvals by senior officers. Typically, the use of derivative instruments is limited to foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps on the Company’s outstanding long-term debt.
The Company’s foreign currency exchange rate risk is limited principally to the Euro, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Japanese Yen, Indian Rupee and Chinese Renminbi. The Company manages its foreign exchange risk principally through invoicing customers in the same currency as the source of products. The effect of transaction gains and losses is reported within other (income) expense -net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company’s interest rate exposure is primarily related to the $875.2 million of total debt outstanding at June 30, 2015. Approximately 26% of the debt, representing the amount drawn on the Revolving Facility at June 30, 2015, is priced at interest rates that float with the market. A 50 basis point movement in the interest rate on the floating rate debt would result in an approximate $1.1 million annualized increase or decrease in interest expense and cash flows. The remaining debt is fixed rate debt.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of June 30, 2015, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
There has been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. | Legal Proceedings.

The Company and four of its subsidiaries are presently named as defendants in a number of lawsuits claiming various asbestos-related personal injuries, allegedly as a result of exposure to products manufactured with components that contained asbestos. These components were acquired from third party suppliers, and were not manufactured by any of the subsidiaries. To date, the majority of the Company’s settlements and legal costs, except for costs of coordination, administration, insurance investigation and a portion of defense costs, have been covered in full by insurance, subject to applicable deductibles. However, the Company cannot predict whether and to what extent insurance will be available to continue to cover these settlements and legal costs, or how insurers may respond to claims that are tendered to them. Claims have been filed in jurisdictions throughout the United States. Most of the claims resolved to date have been dismissed without payment. The balance have been settled for various insignificant amounts. Only one case has been tried, resulting in a verdict for the Company’s business unit. No provision has been made in the financial statements of the Company, other than for insurance deductibles in the ordinary course, and the Company does not currently believe the asbestos-related claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
The Company is also party to various other legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, none of which is expected to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
