1. Organization and Nature of Operations

Description of Business

Headquartered in Braintree, Massachusetts, Altra Industrial Motion Corp. (the “Company”) is a leading multi-national designer, producer and marketer of a wide range of electro-mechanical power transmission products. The Company brings together strong brands covering over 42 product lines with production facilities in twelve countries. Altra’s leading brands include Ameridrives Couplings, Bauer Gear Motor, Bibby Turboflex, Boston Gear, Delroyd Worm Gear, Formsprag Clutch, Guardian Couplings, Huco, Industrial Clutch, Inertia Dynamics, Kilian Manufacturing, Lamiflex Couplings, Marland Clutch, Matrix, Nuttall Gear, Stieber Clutch, Svendborg Brakes, TB Wood’s, Twiflex, Warner Electric, Warner Linear, and Wichita Clutch.

2. Basis of Presentation

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position for the interim periods presented, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results are not necessarily indicative of future results. The Company considers events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued to provide additional evidence relative to certain estimates or to identify matters that require additional disclosure.

3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying values of financial instruments, including accounts receivable, cash equivalents, accounts payable, and other accrued liabilities approximate fair value. Debt under the Company’s Credit Agreement including a Term Loan Facility and a Revolving Credit Facility approximate the fair values due to the variable rate nature at current market rates.

The carrying amount of the 2.75% Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) was $85 million at both September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $88.4 million and $99.0 million, respectively, based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the Convertible Notes (level 2).

Included in cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are money market fund investments of $0.3 million, which are reported at fair value based on quoted market prices for such investments (level 1).

The estimated fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreement with certain financial institutions (“Interest Rate Swap”) as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $(0.1) million and $0.1 million, respectively, based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the Interest Rate Swap (level 2). Inputs include present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract.

5. Net Income per Share

Basic earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, and diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding. Common stock equivalents are included in the per share calculations when the effect of their inclusion is dilutive.

The following is a reconciliation of basic to diluted net income per share:



	Quarter Ended				Year to Date Ended
	September 30, 2015		September 30, 2014		September 30, 2015		September 30, 2014
Net income attributable to Altra Industrial Motion Corp.	$	10,221	$	6,946	$	29,299	$	31,108
Shares used in net income per common share - basic	26,145		26,648		26,140		26,785
Dilutive effect of the equity premium on Convertible Notes at the average price of common stock	—		626		38		687
Incremental shares of unvested restricted common stock	—		60		6		85
Shares used in net income per common share - diluted	26,145		27,334		26,184		27,557

Diluted net income attributable to Altra Industrial Motion Corp.	$	0.39	$	0.25	$	1.12	$	1.13

During the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Company's common stock price did not exceed the current conversion price of the Company's Convertible Notes, resulting in no additional shares being included in net income per common share in the diluted earnings per share calculation above. During the year to date periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 and quarter ended September 30, 2014, the average price of the Company’s common stock exceeded the current conversion price of the Company’s Convertible Notes resulting in additional shares being included in net income per common share in the diluted earnings per share calculation above.

6. Acquisitions

Guardian Couplings

On July 1, 2014, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Guardian Ind., Inc. ("Guardian Couplings") for cash consideration of $17.1 million. This transaction is referred to as the Guardian Acquisition. Guardian Couplings is a manufacturer and supplier of flywheel, motion control and general industrial couplings. The Guardian Acquisition provides the Company with increased product coverage in several core markets, including energy, farm and agriculture, and specialty machinery and is expected to provide synergies with the Company's existing product offerings.

The sellers agreed to provide the Company with a limited set of representations and warranties, including those with respect to outstanding and potential liabilities. Claims for a breach of a representation or warranty are secured by a limited escrow. There is no guarantee that the Company would actually be able to recover all or any portion of the sums payable in connection with such breach.

The purchase price of $17.1 million, excluding acquisition costs of $0.2 million, is in excess of the fair value of net assets acquired by approximately $2.2 million. Current assets acquired, excluding approximately $2.0 million in cash, totaled approximately $4.0 million, non-current assets totaled approximately $9.2 million and current liabilities totaled approximately $0.3 million.

The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. This goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes over a period of 15 years. The Company expects to develop synergies, such as lower cost country sourcing and global procurement.

The non-current assets acquired included the following intangible assets:



Customer relationships, subject to amortization	$	7,450
Trade names and trademarks, not subject to amortization	650
Total intangible assets	$	8,100

Customer relationships will be amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of 14 years, which represents the anticipated period over which the Company estimates it will benefit from the acquired assets.

Pro forma Results of Operations

The closing date of the Guardian Acquisition was July 1, 2014. The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the results of the operations of the acquired entities for the periods commencing after the acquisition dates.

The following table sets forth the unaudited pro forma results of operations of the Company for the year to date period ended September 30, 2014 as if the Company had acquired Guardian Couplings on January 1, 2014. The pro forma information contains the actual operating results of the Company, including Guardian Couplings, adjusted to include the pro forma impact of (i) additional expense as a result of the estimated amortization of identifiable intangible assets; and (ii) additional interest expense for borrowings under the Credit Agreement associated with the Guardian Acquisition. These pro forma amounts do not purport to be indicative of the results that would have actually been obtained if the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the period or that may be obtained in the future.

9. Warranty Costs

The contractual warranty period of the Company's products generally ranges from three months to two years with certain warranties extending for longer periods. Estimated expenses related to product warranties are accrued at the time products are sold to customers and are recorded in accruals and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Estimates are established using historical information as to the nature, frequency and average costs of warranty claims.

Credit Agreement

In December 2013, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s former credit agreement, dated November 20, 2012 (the “Former Credit Agreement”). Pursuant to the Former Credit Agreement, the former lenders made available to the Company an initial term loan facility of $100,000,000 and an initial revolving credit facility of $200,000,000. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the lenders made an additional term loan of €50,000,000 (the “Additional Term Loan”) to Altra Industrial Motion Netherlands B.V. The Credit Agreement kept in effect the balance (approximately $94,375,000) of the existing term loan facility (the “Initial Term Loan”) made to the domestic borrowers under the Former Credit Agreement (collectively, the two term loans are referred to as the “Term Loan Facility”), as well as the revolving credit facility of $200,000,000 made under the Former Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Credit Agreement continues, even after the making of the Additional Term Loan, to provide for a possible expansion of the credit facilities by an additional $150,000,000, which can be allocated as additional term loans and/or additional revolving credit loans. The amounts available under the Term Loan Facility were used,

and amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility can be used, for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and to repay existing indebtedness. The stated maturity of these credit facilities is December 6, 2018, and there are scheduled quarterly principal payments due on the outstanding amount of the Term Loan Facility. With respect to the Initial Term Loan, the scheduled quarterly principal payments due on the outstanding amount have been reset to amortize in accordance with the new December 6, 2018 maturity date. The previous maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Initial Term Loan was November 20, 2017.

The amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility may be drawn upon in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. All amounts outstanding under the credit facilities are due on the stated maturity or such earlier time, if any, required under the Credit Agreement. The amounts owed under either of the credit facilities may be prepaid at any time, subject to usual notification and breakage payment provisions. Interest on the amounts outstanding under the credit facilities is calculated using either an ABR Rate or Eurodollar Rate, plus the applicable margin. The applicable margins for Eurodollar Loans are between 1.375% to 1.875%, and for ABR Loans are between 0.375% and 0.875%. The amounts of the margins are calculated based on either a consolidated total net leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), or the then applicable credit rating(s) of the Company’s debt if and then to the extent as provided in the Credit Agreement. A portion of the Revolving Credit Facility may also be used for the issuance of letters of credit, and a portion of the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility is available for borrowings in certain agreed upon foreign currencies.

On August 13, 2015, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement which revised the definition of a “Change in Control” set forth in the Credit Agreement.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had $37.0 million and $40.0 million outstanding on our Revolving Credit Facility, respectively. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had $8.0 million and $11.0 million in letters of credit outstanding, respectively. The Company had $155.0 million and $149.0 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants and restrictions, which among other things, will require the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to provide certain financial reports to the Lenders, require the Company to maintain certain financial covenants relating to consolidated leverage and interest coverage, limit maximum annual capital expenditures, and limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other equity distributions, purchase or redeem capital stock or debt stock or debt, make certain investments, sell assets, engage in certain transactions, and effect a consolidation or merger. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default.

On October 22, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. For more information on the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement see Note 16.

“Collateral”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral does not include, among other items, more than 65% of the capital stock of the first tier foreign subsidiaries of the Company. The Pledge and Security Agreement contains other customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties. The Credit Agreement provides that the obligation to grant the security interest can cease upon the obtaining of certain corporate family ratings for the Company, but the obligation to grant a security interest is subject to subsequent reinstatement if the ratings are not maintained as provided in the Credit Agreement.

In connection with the Pledge and Security Agreement, certain of the Loan Parties delivered a Patent Security Agreement and a Trademark Security Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to which each of the Loan Parties signatory thereto pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all registered patents, patent applications, registered trademarks and trademark applications owned by such Loan Parties.

Convertible Senior Notes

In March 2011, the Company issued the Convertible Notes due March 1, 2031. The Convertible Notes are guaranteed by the Company’s U.S. domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the Convertible Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears, on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1, 2011 at an annual rate of 2.75%. Proceeds from the offering were $81.3 million, net of fees and expenses that were capitalized. The proceeds from the offering were used to fund the Bauer Acquisition, as well as bolster the Company’s cash position.

The Convertible Notes will mature on March 1, 2031, unless earlier redeemed, repurchased by the Company or converted, and are convertible into cash or shares, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The Convertible Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock based on an initial conversion rate, subject to adjustment, of 36.0985 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $27.70 per share of our common stock), in certain circumstances. The conversion price at September 30, 2015 is $26.29 per share. Prior to March 1, 2030, the Convertible Notes are convertible only in the following circumstances: (1) during any fiscal quarter commencing after June 30, 2011 if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock is greater than or equal to 130% of the applicable conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter; (2) during the 5 business day period after any 10 consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day in the measurement period was less than 97% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate on such trading day; (3) if the Convertible Notes have been called for redemption; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions. On or after March 1, 2030, and ending at the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert their Convertible Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. Upon conversion, the Company will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of common stock, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The Company intends to settle the principal amount in cash and any additional amounts in shares of stock.

If a fundamental change occurs, the Convertible Notes are redeemable at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including contingent interest and additional interest, if any) to, but excluding, the repurchase date. The Convertible Notes are also redeemable on each of March 1, 2018, March 1, 2021, and March 1, 2026 for cash at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including contingent interest and additional interest, if any) to, but excluding, the option repurchase date.

As of March 1, 2015, the Company may call all or part of the Convertible Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, plus a “make-whole premium” payment in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or combination thereof, at the Company’s option, equal to the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of interest on the Convertible Notes to be redeemed through March 1, 2018 to, but excluding, the redemption date, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date the Company provides notice of redemption exceeds 130% of the conversion price in effect on each such trading day. On or after March 1, 2018, the Company may redeem for cash all or a portion of the notes at a redemption price of 100% of the principle amount of the Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest (including contingent and additional interest, if any) to, but not including, the redemption date.

The Company separately accounted for the debt and equity components of the Convertible Notes to reflect the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate, which interest costs are to be recognized in subsequent periods. The note payable principal balance at the date of issuance of $85.0 million was bifurcated into a debt component of $60.5 million and an equity component of $24.5 million. The difference between the note payable principal balance and the value of the debt component is being accreted to interest expense over the term of the notes. The debt component was recognized at the present value of associated cash flows discounted using a 8.25% discount rate, the borrowing rate at the date of issuance for a similar debt instrument without a conversion feature. The Company paid approximately $3.7 million of issuance costs associated with the Convertible Notes. The Company recorded $1.0 million of debt issuance costs as an offset to additional paid-in capital. The balance of $2.7 million of debt issuance costs is classified as other non-current assets and will be amortized over the term of the notes using the effective interest method.

Because the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock did not exceed 130% of the current conversion price, which was $26.29, for at least 20 of the last 30 consecutive trading days in the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Convertible Notes are not convertible at the election of the holders of the Convertible Notes at any time during the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2015. The future convertibility will be monitored at each quarterly reporting date and will be analyzed dependent upon market prices of the Company's common stock during the prescribed measurement periods.

The carrying amount of the principal amount of the liability component, the unamortized discount, and the net carrying amount are as follows as of September 30, 2015:



Principal amount of debt	$	85,000
Unamortized discount	10,016
Carrying value of debt	$	74,984

Interest expense associated with the Convertible Notes consists of the following:



	Quarter Ended
	September 30, 2015		September 30, 2014
Contractual coupon rate of interest	$	586	$	584
Accretion of Convertible Notes discount and amortization of deferred financing costs	840		681
Interest expense for the convertible notes	$	1,426	$	1,265

	Year to Date Ended
	September 30, 2015		September 30, 2014
Contractual coupon rate of interest	$	1,753	$	1,753
Accretion of Convertible Notes discount and amortization of deferred financing costs	2,740		2,527
Interest expense for the convertible notes	$	4,493	$	4,280

The effective interest yield of the Convertible Notes due in 2031 is 8.5% at September 30, 2015 and the cash coupon interest rate is 2.75%.

Equipment and Working Capital Notes

The Company entered into a loan with a bank to equip its facility in Changzhou, China during 2013. The loan is secured by certain letters of credit issued by the Company’s U.S. bank in favor of the lending bank in China. As of September 30, 2015, the total available to borrow was 38.7 million RMB ($6.3 million). The loan is due in installments from 2014 through 2016, with interest varying between 5.4% and 7.87%. The Company has a 18.4 million RMB ($2.9 million) line of credit

Assets subject to capital leases are included in property, plant and equipment with the related amortization recorded as depreciation expense.

Overdraft Agreements

Certain of our foreign subsidiaries maintain overdraft agreements with financial institutions. There were no borrowings as of September 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014 under any of the overdraft agreements.

11. Stockholders’ Equity

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company's 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”) permitted the grant of various forms of stock based compensation to our officers and senior level employees. The 2004 Plan expired in 2014 and, upon expiration, there were 750,576 shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2004 Plan. The 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) was approved by the Company's shareholders at its 2014 annual meeting. The 2014 Plan provides for various forms of stock based compensation to our directors, executive personnel and other key employees and consultants. Under the 2014 Plan, the total number of shares of common stock available for delivery pursuant to the grant of awards (“Awards”) was originally 750,000 . Shares of our common stock subject to Awards awarded under the 2004 Plan and outstanding as of the effective date of the 2014 Plan (except for substitute awards) that terminate without being exercised, expire, are forfeited or canceled, are exchanged for Awards that did not involve shares of common stock, are not issued on the stock settlement of a stock appreciation right, are withheld by the Company or tendered by a participant (either actually or by attestation) to pay an option exercise price or to pay the withholding tax on any Award, or are settled in cash in lieu of shares will again be available for Awards under the 2014 Plan.

The restricted stock awards issued pursuant to the 2014 Plan generally vest ratably over a period ranging from immediately to five years from the date of grant, provided, that the vesting of the restricted shares may accelerate upon the

occurrence of certain events. Common stock awarded under the 2014 Plan is generally subject to restrictions on transfer, repurchase rights, and other limitations and rights as set forth in the applicable award agreements. The shares are valued based on the share price on the date of grant.

The 2014 Plan permits the Company to grant, among other things, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and performance share awards to key employees and other persons who make significant contributions to the success of the Company. The restrictions and vesting schedule for restricted stock granted under the 2014 Plan are determined by the Personnel and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

Stock-based compensation expense recorded (in selling, general and administrative expense) during the year to date periods ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, was $3.2 million and $2.6 million, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense recorded during the quarters ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014, was $1.0 million and $0.8 million, respectively. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis for the shares vesting ratably under the plan and uses the graded-vesting method of recognizing stock-based compensation expense for the performance share awards based on the probability of the specific performance metrics being achieved over the requisite service period.

The following table sets forth the activity of the Company’s restricted stock and performance share grants in the year to date period ended September 30, 2015:



	Shares		Weighted-average grant date fair value
Shares unvested January 1, 2015	159,178		$	28.53
Shares granted	129,338		26.93
Shares for which restrictions lapsed	(126,716	)	26.56
Shares unvested September 30, 2015	161,800		$	28.62

Total remaining unrecognized compensation cost was $4.6 million as of September 30, 2015, which will be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 3 years. The fair market value of the shares for which the restrictions have lapsed during the year to date period ended September 30, 2015 was $3.6 million. Restricted shares granted are valued based on the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant.

Share Repurchase Program

In May 2014, our board of directors approved a new share repurchase program authorizing the buyback of up to $50.0 million of the Company's common stock. The Company expects to purchase shares on the open market, through block trades, in privately negotiated transactions, in compliance with SEC Rule 10b-18 (including through Rule 10b5-1 plans), or in any other appropriate manner. The timing of the shares repurchased will be at the discretion of management and will depend on a number of factors, including price, market conditions and regulatory requirements. Shares acquired through the repurchase program will be retired. The Company retains the right to limit, terminate or extend the share repurchase program at any time without prior notice.

For the year to date period ended September 30, 2015, the Company repurchased 547,780 shares of common stock at an average purchase price of $26.08 per share. As of September 30, 2015, up to $18.1 million was available to purchase additional shares under the repurchase program, which expires on December 31, 2016. The Company expects to fund any further repurchases of its common stock through a combination of cash on hand and cash generated by operations.

Dividends

The Company declared a dividend of $0.15 per share of common stock related to the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The dividend for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 was accrued in the balance sheet at September 30, 2015. The Company declared and paid a cash dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock for the quarter ended September 30, 2014

which was accrued at September 30, 2014. Future declarations of quarterly cash dividends are subject to approval by the Board of Directors and to the Board’s continuing determination that the declaration of dividends are in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders and are in compliance with all laws and agreements of the Company applicable to the declaration and payment of cash dividends.

12. Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest Rate Swap

In April 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement designed to fix the variable interest rate payable on a portion of its outstanding borrowings, currently $75.0 million, under the Credit Agreement, at 0.626% exclusive of the margin under the Former Credit Agreement. The interest rate swap agreement and its terms are also applicable to the variable interest rate borrowings under the current Credit Agreement.

The interest rate swap agreement was designed to manage exposure to interest rates on the Company’s variable rate indebtedness. The Company recognizes all derivatives on its balance sheet at fair value. The Company has designated its interest rate swap agreement, which is forward-dated, as a cash flow hedge. Changes in the fair value of the swap are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with the swap will be reported by the Company in interest expense. There was no ineffectiveness associated with the swap during the quarter ended September 30, 2015, nor was any amount excluded from ineffectiveness testing for the period.

The estimated fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreement with certain financial institutions (“Interest Rate Swap”) was based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the Interest Rate Swap (level 2). Inputs include present value of fixed and projected floating rate cash flows over the term of the swap contract.

The fair value of the swap recognized in other non-current assets, net and in other comprehensive income (loss) is as follows:



						Fair Value
	Notional					September 30, 2015			December 31, 2014
Effective Date	Amount		Fixed Rate		Maturity	September 30, 2015			December 31, 2014
April 30, 2013	$	75,000	0.626	%	November 30, 2016	$	(140	)	$	143

13. Restructuring

In the quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company adopted a restructuring plan (“2014 Altra Plan”) as a result of weak demand in Europe and to make certain adjustments to its existing sales force to reflect the Company's expanding global footprint. The actions taken pursuant to the 2014 Altra Plan included reducing headcount and limiting discretionary spending to improve profitability.

In the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company commenced a restructuring plan (“2015 Altra Plan”) as a result of weak demand in Europe and to make certain adjustments to improve business effectiveness, reduce the number of facilities and streamline the Company's cost structure. The actions taken pursuant to the 2015 Altra Plan initially included reducing headcount and limiting discretionary spending to improve profitability. In addition, during the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Company initiated the next step of the Plan and incurred certain costs and asset impairments relating to facility consolidations. Those activities continued in the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

The Company currently operates through three business segments that are aligned with key product types and end markets served:


•	Couplings, Clutches & Brakes.

Couplings are the interface between two shafts, which enable power to be transmitted from one shaft to the other. Clutches in this segment are devices which use mechanical, hydraulic, pneumatic, or friction type connections to facilitate engaging or disengaging two rotating members. Brakes are combinations of interacting parts that work to slow or stop machinery. Products in this segment are generally used in heavy industrial applications and energy markets.


•	Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes.

Products in this segment include brakes and clutches that are used to electronically slow, stop, engage or disengage equipment utilizing electromagnetic friction type connections. Products in this segment are used in industrial and commercial markets including agricultural machinery, material handling, motion control, and turf & garden.


•	Gearing.

Gears are utilized to reduce the speed and increase the torque of an electric motor or engine to the level required to drive a particular piece of equipment. Gears produced by the Company are primarily utilized in industrial applications.

Concentrations

Financial instruments, which are potentially subject to counter party performance and concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of trade accounts receivable. The Company manages these risks by conducting credit evaluations of customers prior to delivery or commencement of services. When the Company enters into a sales contract, collateral is normally not required from the customer. Payments are typically due within 30 days of billing. An allowance for potential credit losses is

maintained, and losses have historically been within management’s expectations. No customer represented greater than 10% of total sales for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2015 and September 30, 2014.

The Company is also subject to counter party performance risk of loss in the event of non-performance by counterparties to financial instruments, such as cash and investments. Cash and cash equivalents are held by well-established financial institutions and invested in AAA rated mutual funds. The Company is exposed to swap counterparty credit risk with well-established financial institutions.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

General Litigation

The Company is involved in various pending legal proceedings arising out of the ordinary course of business. These proceedings primarily involve commercial claims, product liability claims, personal injury claims, and workers’ compensation claims. None of these legal proceedings are expected to have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. With respect to these proceedings, management believes that the Company will prevail, has adequate insurance coverage or has established appropriate reserves to cover potential liabilities. Any costs that management estimates may be paid related to these proceedings or claims are accrued when the liability is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. There can be no assurance, however, as to the ultimate outcome of any of these matters, and if all or substantially all of these legal proceedings were to be determined adversely to the Company, there could be a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition of the Company. We have established loss provisions for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. There were no material amounts accrued in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets for potential litigation as of September 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014. For matters where a reserve has not been established and for which we believe a loss is reasonably possible, as well as for matters where a reserve has been recorded but for which an exposure to loss in excess of the amount accrued is reasonably possible, we believe that such losses, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

The Company also risks exposure to product liability claims in connection with products it has sold and those sold by businesses that the Company acquired. Although in some cases third parties have retained responsibility for product liability claims relating to products manufactured or sold prior to the acquisition of the relevant business and in other cases the persons from whom the Company has acquired a business may be required to indemnify the Company for certain product liability claims subject to certain caps or limitations on indemnification, the Company cannot assure that those third parties will in fact satisfy their obligations with respect to liabilities retained by them or their indemnification obligations. If those third parties become unable to or otherwise do not comply with their respective obligations including indemnity obligations, or if certain product liability claims for which the Company is obligated were not retained by third parties or are not subject to these indemnities, the Company could become subject to significant liabilities or other adverse consequences. Moreover, even in cases where third parties retain responsibility for product liability claims or are required to indemnify the Company, significant claims arising from products that have been acquired could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to realize the benefits from an acquisition, could result in the reduction of the value of goodwill that the Company recorded in connection with an acquisition, or could otherwise have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, or operations.

16. Subsequent Events

On October 22, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement pursuant to which the Company amended its Credit Agreement. The new agreement resulted in a two-year extension of the term of the facility, the elimination of the existing Term Loan Facility, and an increase in total borrowing capacity under the facility to $350.0 million. The applicable margins for Eurodollar Loans and ABR Loans are between 1.25% and 2.00%, 0.25% and 1.00%, respectively. Collateral under the new facility remains substantially the same as under the Company's existing Credit Agreement. The Company expects to incur a non-cash charge of approximately $0.5 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2015 to write-off deferred financing costs in connection with eliminating the Term Loan Facilities under the new agreement.

General

We are a leading global designer, producer and marketer of a wide range of electromechanical power transmission products with a presence in over 70 countries. Our global sales and marketing network includes over 1,000 direct OEM customers and over 3,000 distributor outlets. Our product portfolio includes industrial clutches and brakes, enclosed gear drives, open gearing, couplings, engineered bearing assemblies, linear components, gear motors, and other related products. Our products serve a wide variety of end markets including energy, general industrial, material handling, mining, transportation and turf and garden. We primarily sell our products to a wide range of OEMs and through long-standing relationships with industrial distributors such as Motion Industries, Applied Industrial Technologies, Kaman Industrial Technologies and W.W. Grainger.

Although we were incorporated in Delaware in 2004, much of our current business has its roots with the prior acquisition by Colfax Corporation, or Colfax, of the MPT (mechanical power transmission) group of Zurn Technologies, Inc. in December 1996. Colfax subsequently acquired Industrial Clutch Corp. in May 1997, Nuttall Gear Corp. in July 1997 and the Boston Gear and Delroyd Worm Gear brands in August 1997 as part of Colfax’s acquisition of Imo Industries, Inc. In February 2000, Colfax acquired Warner Electric, Inc., which sold products under the Warner Electric, Formsprag Clutch, Stieber, and Wichita Clutch brands. Colfax formed Power Transmission Holding, LLC or “PTH” in June 2004 to serve as a holding company for all of these power transmission businesses. Boston Gear was established in 1877, Warner Electric, Inc. in 1927, and Wichita Clutch in 1949.

On November 30, 2004, we acquired our original core business through the acquisition of PTH from Colfax. We refer to this transaction as the PTH Acquisition.

On October 22, 2004, The Kilian Company ("Kilian"), a company formed at the direction of Genstar Capital, then the largest stockholder of Altra, acquired Kilian Manufacturing Corporation from Timken U.S. Corporation. At the completion of the PTH Acquisition, (i) all of the outstanding shares of Kilian capital stock were exchanged for shares of our capital stock and (ii) Kilian and its subsidiaries were transferred to our former wholly owned subsidiary, Altra Power Transmission, Inc.

On May 29, 2011, we acquired substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Danfoss Bauer GmbH relating to its gear motor business, or Bauer. We refer to this transaction as the Bauer Acquisition. Bauer is a European manufacturer of high-quality gear motors, offering engineered solutions to a variety of industries, including material handling, metals, food processing, and energy.

On July 11, 2012, we acquired 85% of privately held Lamiflex do Brasil Equipamentos Industriais Ltda., now known as Altra Industrial Motion do Brasil S.A., or Lamiflex. Lamiflex is a premier Brazilian manufacturer of high-speed disc couplings, providing engineered solutions to a variety of industries, including oil and gas, power generation, metals and mining. On June 19, 2015, we acquired the remaining 15% of Lamiflex.

On November 22, 2013, we changed our legal corporate name from Altra Holdings, Inc. to Altra Industrial Motion Corp.

On December 17, 2013, we acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of Svendborg Brakes A/S and S.B. Patent Holding ApS (together “Svendborg”). Svendborg is a leading global manufacturer of premium quality caliper brakes.

On July 1, 2014, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Guardian Ind., Inc. (“Guardian Couplings”). Guardian Couplings is a manufacturer and supplier of flywheel, motion control and general industrial couplings.

On December 31, 2014, Altra Power Transmission, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary, was merged into Altra Industrial Motion Corp.

Business Segments

Segments

During the third quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Company realigned its management and reporting structure and corresponding reportable business segments as part of its business simplification efforts. This new structure is better aligned across the Company’s end markets and will better facilitate the Company’s strategic initiatives for growth, procurement and facility consolidation.

The Company currently operates through three business segments that are aligned with key product types and end markets served:


•	Couplings, Clutches & Brakes.


•	Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes.


•	Gearing.

The following tables show the percentage of total revenue and segment earnings generated by each of our three segments for the quarters and year to date periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

Our Internet address is www.altramotion.com. By following the link “Investor Relations” and then “SEC filings” on our Internet website, we make available, free of charge, our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, our Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as soon as reasonably practicable after such forms are filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission. We are not including the information contained on or available through our website as a part of, or incorporating such information by reference into, this Form 10-Q.

Business Outlook

Our future financial performance depends, in large part, on conditions in the markets that we serve and on the U.S., European, and global economies in general.

Foreign currency translation continues to have a negative impact on our performance, and several of our end markets were weaker than we anticipated. Performance in the oil & gas, agriculture, mining and metals end markets, which are some of our largest markets, remain challenging and continues to weigh on our performance. We have seen broad based decline in global industrial demand through the first nine months of 2015. Furthermore, we expect the challenges in our agriculture, oil and gas, mining and metals end markets to continue for some time, as many customers are beginning to implement restructuring and cost reduction programs. In addition, we have seen softening expand into other end markets that were previously unaffected. We expect these trends to continue.

We expect operating results for the remainder of the year to be lower when compared to the comparable prior year period due to these conditions. As these conditions persist, we are managing the business to the level of demand we are seeing. We expect ongoing benefits from the restructuring and cost reduction initiatives we began earlier this year. These initiatives include the 2015 Altra Plan which we commenced in the quarter ended March 31, 2015 and which has also helped improve profitability of our Bauer business. We commenced three facility consolidations in the quarter ended June 30, 2015 and we expect to continue to pursue our restructuring efforts in future quarters.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect our reported amounts of assets, revenues and expenses, as well as related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on past experiences and other assumptions we believe to be appropriate, and we evaluate these estimates on an on-going basis. See the discussion of critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. There have been no changes in the identification or application of the Company’s critical accounting policies during the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Net sales	$	183,053	$	202,520	(19,467	)	(9.6	)%

The decrease in sales during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 was due to the effect of foreign exchange rates, and lower sales levels in several end markets. Of the decrease in sales, approximately $11.7 million relates to the impact of changes to foreign exchange rates primarily attributed to the exchange rate declines for the Euro and British Pound compared to the prior year. In addition, $7.8 million relates to decreased sales in various end markets, primarily oil and gas and agriculture in our Clutches, Couplings and Brakes and Gearing business segments.

million which impacted gross profit negatively. Adjusted gross profit net of this supplier provision would have been 31.6% of sales. We expect the gross profit as a percentage of sales in future periods will remain relatively consistent with the adjusted gross profit net of the supplier provision experienced in the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Approximately $2.8 million of the decrease in SG&A relates to the impact of foreign exchange rates for the Euro and British Pound compared to the same period in the prior year.

This increase is offset by $0.3 million relating to the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates for the Euro and British Pound compared to the prior year. We expect R&D expenses to approximate 2.0% - 2.5% of sales in future periods.

Restructuring Costs	651	1,643	$	(992	)	(60.4	)%

The company commenced a restructuring plan ("2014 Altra Plan") during the quarter ended September 30, 2014 as a result of weak demand in Europe and to make certain adjustments to its existing sales force to reflect the Company's expanding global footprint. During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company commenced a separate restructuring plan ("2015 Altra Plan") as a result of weak demand in Europe and to make certain adjustments to improve business effectiveness, reduce the number of facilities and streamline the Company's cost structure.

The decrease in restructuring during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 is due to the timing of certain of the actions taken under the 2014 Plan which were initiated during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, while the majority of the actions taken to date under the 2015 Plan were initiated prior to the quarter ended September 30, 2015.

Approximately $0.3 million, $0.6 million and $0.5 million of the Costs incurred under the 2014 Altra Plan were related to the Couplings Clutches & Brakes, Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes, and Gearing segments, respectively.

Approximately $0.1 million, and $0.5 million of the costs incurred under the 2015 Altra Plan were related to the Couplings Clutches and Brakes and Gearing segments, respectively.

The Company expects to incur between $0.3 million and $0.5 million in additional expenses associated with the 2015 Altra Plan during the remainder of 2015. We expect to realize cost savings of approximately $1.0 million related to these actions during the remainder of 2015.

The Company amended its Credit Facility during October 2015 which reduced the margin on its borrowings by approximately 0.125%. As a result, absent additional borrowing, we expect net interest expense to decrease slightly beginning in 2016.

The provision for income tax, as a percentage of income before taxes, during the quarter ended September 30, 2015 was lower than that of the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The restructuring of certain of our foreign subsidiaries resulted in additional income tax of $3.8 million in the United States during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The payment of taxes on this additional taxable income allowed the Company to benefit from a foreign tax credit of approximately $0.9 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The remainder of the decrease in the provision as a percentage of income before taxes results from the ongoing benefits of the foreign reorganization.

Segment Performance

Couplings, Clutches & Brakes

Net sales in the Couplings, Clutches & Brakes segment were $85.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015, a decrease of approximately $14.6 million or 14.6%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2014. Approximately $5.3 million of the decrease was due to the impact of changes to foreign exchange rates primarily related to the Euro and British Pound compared to the prior year. The remainder of the decrease was due primarily to weakness in oil and gas and metals and mining markets. Segment operating income decreased approximately $4.2 million compared to the prior period primarily as a result of the impact of the decrease in sales described above.

Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes

Net sales in the Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes segment were $50.4 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015, an increase of approximately $0.6 million, or 1.2%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The impact of changes to foreign exchange rates, primarily related to the Euro and British Pound, compared to the prior year caused net sales to decrease by approximately $2.2 million. Net sales in the agriculture market decreased approximately $0.9 million. These decreases were offset by increased net sales in the turf and garden end market. Segment operating income increased $0.7 million compared to the prior period primarily as a result of the impact of the increase in sales described above.

Gearing

Net sales in the Gearing segment were $48.8 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared with $54.0 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $5.2 million. Approximately $4.1 million of the decrease was due to the impact of changes to foreign exchange rates primarily attributed to the Euro and British Pound compared to the prior year. The remaining $1.1 million decline related to decreased volumes in several end markets. Segment operating income declined $0.4 million compared to the prior period primarily as a result of the impact of the decrease in sales described above.

The decrease in sales during the year to date period ended September 30, 2015 was due to weaker foreign exchange rates, and lower sales levels in several end markets, offset somewhat by the inclusion of Guardian Couplings. Of the decrease in sales, approximately $36.0 million relates to the impact of changes to foreign exchange rates primarily attributed to the Euro and British Pound compared to the prior year. In addition, $23.7 million relates to decreases in sales in various end markets, offset by the inclusion of $4.9 million in additional sales relating to the acquisition of Guardian Couplings.

The increase in restructuring costs during the year to date period September 30, 2015, is due in part to the effect of the timing of the 2015 Altra Plan which was initiated earlier in 2015 than the 2014 Altra Plan was initiated in the prior year. Costs related to an impairment charge of approximately $1.1 million to a facility consolidation in the Couplings, Clutches and Brakes business segment in 2015 also contributed to the increase. There were no impairment charges incurred under the 2014 Plan.

Approximately $0.3 million, $0.6 million and $0.5 million of the costs incurred under the 2014 Altra Plan were related to the Couplings Clutches & Brakes, Electromagnetic Clutches & Brakes, and Gearing business segments, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We finance our capital and working capital requirements through a combination of cash flows from operating activities and borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility (defined below). We expect that our primary ongoing requirements for cash will be for working capital, debt service, capital expenditures, acquisitions, pensions and dividends. In the event additional funds are needed for operations, we could borrow additional funds available under our existing Revolving Credit Facility, request an expansion by up to $150,000,000 of the amount available to be borrowed under the Credit Agreement, attempt to secure new debt, attempt to refinance our loans under the Credit Agreement, or attempt to raise capital in the equity markets. As of September 30, 2015, we have the ability under our Revolving Credit Facility to borrow an additional $155.0 million, based on current availability calculations. There can be no assurance however that additional debt financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. Similarly, there can be no assurance that equity financing will be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

Credit Agreement

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the lenders made an additional term loan of €50,000,000 (the “Additional Term Loan”) to Altra Industrial Motion Netherlands B.V. The Credit Agreement kept in effect the balance (approximately $94,375,000) of the existing term loan facility (the “Initial Term Loan”) made to the domestic borrowers under the Former Credit Agreement (collectively, the two term loans are referred to as the “Term Loan Facility”), as well as the revolving credit facility of $200,000,000 made under the Former Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Credit Agreement continues, even after the making of the Additional Term Loan, to provide for a possible expansion of the credit facilities by an additional $150,000,000, which can be allocated as additional term loans and/or additional revolving credit loans. The amounts available under the Term Loan Facility were used, and amounts available under the Revolving Credit Facility can be used, for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and to repay existing indebtedness. The stated maturity of these credit facilities is December 6, 2018, and there are scheduled quarterly principal payments due on the outstanding amount of the Term Loan Facility. With respect to the Initial Term Loan, the scheduled quarterly principal payments due on the outstanding amount have been reset to amortize in accordance with the new December 6, 2018 maturity date. The previous maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Initial Term Loan was November 20, 2017.

margins are calculated based on either a consolidated total net leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement), or the then applicable rating(s) of the Company’s debt if and then to the extent as provided in the Credit Agreement. A portion of the Revolving Credit Facility may also be used for the issuance of letters of credit, and a portion of the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility is available for borrowings in certain agreed upon foreign currencies.

As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had $37.0 million and $40.0 million outstanding on our Revolving Credit Facility, respectively. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, we had $8.0 million and $11.0 million in letters of credit outstanding, respectively. We had $155.0 million and $149.0 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

The Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants and restrictions, which among other things, will require the Company and certain Subsidiaries to provide certain financial reports to the Lenders, require the Company to maintain certain financial covenants relating to consolidated leverage and interest coverage, limit maximum annual capital expenditures, and limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other equity distributions, purchase or redeem capital stock or debt stock or debt, make certain investments, sell assets, engage in certain transactions, and effect a consolidation or merger. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default.

On August 13, 2015, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement which revised the definition of a “Change in Control” set forth in the Credit Agreement.

Hedging Activities

The Company utilizes a derivative instrument, namely an interest rate swap, to manage exposure to interest rates on the Company’s variable rate indebtedness. Our derivative instrument is with a major financial institution and is not for speculative or trading purposes. The Company has designated its interest rate swap agreement which is forward-dated, as a cash flow hedge, and changes in the fair value of the swap are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with the swap will be reported by the Company in interest expense. For more information on the interest rate swap (see Note 12).

Pledge and Security Agreement; Trademark Security Agreement; Patent Security Agreement.

Pursuant to an Omnibus Reaffirmation and Ratification of Collateral Documents entered into on December 6, 2013 in connection with the Credit Agreement by and among the Company, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent (the “Ratification Agreement”), the Loan Parties (exclusive of the foreign subsidiary Borrower) have reaffirmed their obligations to the Lenders under the Pledge and Security Agreement dated November 20, 2012 (the “Pledge and Security Agreement”), pursuant to which each Loan Party pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all personal property, whether now owned by or owing to, or after acquired by or arising in favor of such Loan Party (including under any trade name or derivations), and whether owned or consigned by or to, or leased from or to, such Loan Party, and regardless of where located, except for specific excluded personal property identified in the Pledge and Security Agreement (collectively, the “Collateral”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral does not include, among other items, more than 65% of the capital stock of the first tier foreign subsidiaries of the Company. The Pledge and Security Agreement contains other customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties. The Credit Agreement provides that the obligation to grant the security interest can cease upon the obtaining of certain corporate family credit ratings for the Company, but the obligation to grant a security interest is subject to subsequent reinstatement if the ratings are not maintained as provided in the Credit Agreement.

Pursuant to the Ratification Agreement, the Loan Parties (other than the foregoing subsidiary Borrower) have also reaffirmed their obligations under each of the Patent Security Agreement and a Trademark Security Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent dated November 20, 2012 pursuant to which each of the Loan Parties signatory thereto pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all registered patents, patent applications, registered trademarks and trademark applications owned by such Loan Parties.

We were in compliance in all material respects with all covenants of the indenture governing the Credit Agreement on September 30, 2015.

Convertible Senior Notes

In March 2011, the Company issued Convertible Senior Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) due March 1, 2031. The Convertible Notes are guaranteed by the Company’s U.S. domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the Convertible Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears, on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1, 2011 at an annual rate of 2.75%. Proceeds from the offering were $81.3 million, net of fees and expenses that were capitalized. The proceeds from the offering were used to fund the Bauer Acquisition, as well as bolster the Company’s cash position.

Because the last reported sale price of the Company's common stock did not exceed 130% of the current conversion price, which is $26.29, for at least 20 of the last 30 consecutive trading days in the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Convertible Notes are not convertible at the election of the holders of the Convertible Notes at any time during the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2015. The future convertibility will be monitored at each quarterly reporting date and will be analyzed dependent upon market prices of the Company's common stock during the prescribed measurement periods.

Should the Convertible notes become convertible in future periods, the Company has the ability and intent to fund any potential payments of the principal amount of the debt with additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement.

Cash Flows for 2015

The primary sources of funds provided from operating activities of approximately $63.5 million for the year to date period ended September 30, 2015 resulted from cash provided from net income of $29.2 million. The net impact of the add-back of certain items including non-cash depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, accretion of debt discount, deferred financing costs, and non-cash loss on foreign currency was approximately $30.1 million. Additionally, there was a net decrease in current assets and liabilities of approximately $4.2 million.

The change in cash flows from operating activities in 2015 as compared to 2014 primarily related to decreased cash generated from net income of $6.1 million, net of non cash items, and $7.6 million less in cash related to changes in assets and liabilities. While a variety of factors can influence our ability to project future cash flow, we expect to see positive cash flows from operating activities during the remainder of fiscal 2015 due to income from operations, a decrease in working capital and profitability initiatives.

Net cash used in investing activities for the year to date period ended September 30, 2015 decreased approximately $13.3 compared to the year to date period ended September 30, 2014. During 2014, the Company acquired Guardian for approximately $15.1 million, net of cash received. The Company has not completed any acquisitions during the period ended September 30, 2015. This decrease was offset somewhat by investments made in our facility in Angers France and Esslingen Germany. We expect capital expenditures to be in the range of $24.0 million to $26.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The change in net cash used in financing activities in the year to date period ended September 30, 2015 as compared to year to date period ended September 30, 2014 related primarily to a $5.6 million decrease in principal payments made on the Company’s Term Loan Facility and Revolving Credit Facility, a $1.5 million decrease in dividend payments made, decreased payments of $0.1 million on mortgages and other debt along with $1.0 million in additional borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $7.1 million in proceeds from a mortgages at certain foreign owned subsidiaries. This was partially offset by a reduction in proceeds from equipment loans of $1.1 million, an increase of $2.6 million in payments on equipment and working capital notes and an increase of $1.5 million in stock repurchases related to the Company's share repurchase program and used for the purchase of the remaining 15% in Lamiflex.

We intend to use our remaining existing cash and cash equivalents and cash flow from operations to provide for our working capital needs, to fund potential future acquisitions, debt service, including principal payments, capital expenditures, pension funding, and to pay returns to our stockholders. As of September 30, 2015, we have approximately $40.7 million of cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries that are generally subject to U.S. income taxation on repatriation to the U.S. We believe our future operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our future operating and investing cash needs. Furthermore, the existing cash balances and the availability of additional borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility provide additional potential sources of liquidity should they be required.

Contractual Obligations

There were no significant changes in our contractual obligations subsequent to December 31, 2014.



Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to various market risk factors such as fluctuating interest rates, changes in foreign currency rates, and changes in commodity prices. During the reporting period, except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the quantitative and qualitative disclosures regarding our market risk set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2015, we utilized a derivative instrument, namely an interest rate swap, to manage exposure to interest rates on the Company’s variable rate indebtedness. Our derivative instrument is with a major financial institution and is not for speculative or trading purposes. The Company has designated its interest rate swap agreement, which is forward-dated, as a cash flow hedge, and changes in the fair value of the swap are recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged items are recognized in earnings. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with the swap will be reported by the Company in interest expense.

We recorded the interest rate swap at fair value, which was $(0.1) million at September 30, 2015. Hedge ineffectiveness, if any, associated with the swap will be reported by the Company as interest expense. With other variables held constant, a hypothetical 50 basis point decrease in the LIBOR yield curve would have resulted in a decrease of approximately $0.5 million in the fair value of the interest rate swap. See Note 12 for further information.

Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2015, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a—15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2015, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION



Item 1.	Legal Proceedings

We are, from time to time, party to various legal proceedings arising out of our business. During the reporting period, there have been no material changes to the description of legal proceedings set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.



Item 1A.	Risk Factors

The reader should carefully consider the Risk Factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Those risk factors described below, elsewhere in this report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 are not the only ones we face, but are considered to be the most material. These risk factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those stated in forward looking statements contained in this Form 10-Q and elsewhere. All risk factors stated in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 are incorporated herein by reference.

During the reporting period, except for below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015.

We may not be able to achieve the efficiencies, savings and other benefits anticipated from our cost reduction, margin improvement and other business optimization initiatives.

We have in the past undertaken and expect to continue to undertake various restructuring activities and cost reduction initiatives in an effort to better align our organizational structure and costs with our strategy. We cannot assure you that we will be able to achieve all of the cost savings that we expect to realize from current or future activities and initiatives. Furthermore, in connection with these activities, we may experience a disruption in our ability to perform functions important to our strategy. Unexpected delays, increased costs, challenges with adapting our internal control environment to a new organizational structure, inability to retain and motivate employees or other challenges arising from these initiatives could adversely affect our ability to realize the anticipated savings or other intended benefits of these activities and could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and operating results.

Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On October 22, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement by and among the Company, Altra Industrial Motion Netherlands, B.V. (“Altra Netherlands”), one of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries (collectively with the Company, the “Borrowers”), the lenders party to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement from time to time (collectively, the “Lenders”), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), to be guaranteed through a Guarantee Agreement by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”; the Guarantors collectively with the Borrowers, the “Loan Parties”), and which may be amended from time to time (the “2015 Credit Agreement”). The 2015 Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s former Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 6, 2013, as amended (the “2013 Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, and certain of its domestic subsidiaries, including former subsidiary Altra Power Transmission, Inc., the lenders party to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement from time to time (the “Former Lenders”), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, and KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc., as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, and the Administrative Agent, guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries of the Company. The 2013 Credit Agreement itself was an amendment and restatement of a prior credit agreement. Pursuant to the 2013 Credit Agreement, the Former Lenders had made available to the Borrowers a revolving credit facility (the “Prior Revolving Credit Facility”) of $200,00,000, which continued in effect an existing term loan then having a balance of approximately $94,000,000, maintained the term loan of $100,000,000 and made an additional term loan of €50,000,000 to Altra Netherlands. The two term loans described in the prior sentence are collectively referred to as the “Term Loans”.

Table of Contents

Under the 2015 Credit Agreement, the amount of the Prior Revolving Credit Facility has been increased to $350,000,000 (the “2015 Revolving Credit Facility”). The amounts available under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility can be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and to repay existing indebtedness. A portion of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility (approximately $110.4 million) was used to repay the Term Loans. The stated maturity of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is being extended to October 22, 2020. The maturity of the Prior Revolving Credit Facility had been December 6, 2018. The 2015 Credit Agreement continues to provide for a possible expansion of the credit facilities by an additional $150,000,000, which can be allocated as additional term loans and/or additional revolving credit loans.

The amounts available under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility may be drawn upon in accordance with the terms of the 2015 Credit Agreement. All amounts outstanding under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility are due on the stated maturity or such earlier time, if any, required under the 2015 Credit Agreement. The amounts owed under the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility may be prepaid at any time, subject to usual notification and breakage payment provisions. Interest on the amounts outstanding under the credit facilities is calculated using either an ABR Rate or Eurodollar Rate, plus the applicable margin. The applicable margins for Eurodollar Loans are between 1.25% to 2.00%, and for ABR Loans are between 0.25% and 1.00%. The amounts of the margins are calculated based on either a consolidated total net leverage ratio (as defined in the 2015 Credit Agreement), or the then applicable rating(s) of the Company’s debt if and then to the extent as provided in the 2015 Credit Agreement. A portion of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility may also be used for the issuance of letters of credit, and a portion of the amount of the 2015 Revolving Credit Facility is available for borrowings in certain agreed upon foreign currencies.

The 2015 Credit Agreement contains various affirmative and negative covenants and restrictions, which among other things, will require the Borrowers to provide certain financial reports to the Lenders, require the Company to maintain certain financial covenants relating to consolidated leverage and interest coverage, limit maximum annual capital expenditures, and limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness, pay dividends or make other equity distributions, purchase or redeem capital stock or debt, make certain investments, sell assets, engage in certain transactions, and effect a consolidation or merger. The 2015 Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default.

Ratification Agreement

Pursuant to an Omnibus Reaffirmation and Ratification and Amendment of Collateral Documents entered into on October 22, 2015 in connection with the 2015 Credit Agreement by and among the Company, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent (the “Ratification Agreement”), the Loan Parties (exclusive of the foreign subsidiary Borrower) have reaffirmed their obligations to the Lenders under the Pledge and Security Agreement dated November 20, 2012 (the “Pledge and Security Agreement”), pursuant to which each Loan Party pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all personal property, whether now owned by or owing to, or after acquired by or arising in favor of such Loan Party (including under any trade name or derivations), and whether owned or consigned by or to, or leased from or to, such Loan Party, and regardless of where located, except for specific excluded personal property identified in the Pledge and Security Agreement (collectively, the “Collateral”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral does not include, among other items, more than 65% of the capital stock of the first tier foreign subsidiaries of the Company. The Pledge and Security Agreement contains other customary representations, warranties and covenants of the parties. The 2015 Credit Agreement provides that the obligation to grant the security interest can cease upon the obtaining of certain corporate family credit ratings for the Company, but the obligation to grant a security interest is subject to subsequent reinstatement if the ratings are not maintained as provided in the 2015 Credit Agreement.

Pursuant to the Ratification Agreement, the Loan Parties (other than the foregoing subsidiary Borrower) have also reaffirmed their obligations under each of the Patent Security Agreement and a Trademark Security Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent dated November 20, 2012 (the “2012 Security Agreements”) pursuant to which each of the Loan Parties signatory thereto pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all registered patents, patent applications, registered trademarks and trademark applications owned by such Loan Parties.

Table of Contents

Additional Trademark Security Agreement and Patent Security Agreement

In connection with the reaffirmation of the Pledge and Security Agreement, certain of the Loan Parties delivered a new Patent Security Agreement and a new Trademark Security Agreement in favor of the Administrative Agent pursuant to which each of the Loan Parties signatory thereto pledges, assigns and grants to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of and for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and under all registered patents, patent applications, registered trademarks and trademark applications owned by such Loan Parties and not covered by the 2012 Security Agreements.
