Overview
CIRCOR International, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on July 1, 1999. As used in this report, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” and “CIRCOR” mean CIRCOR International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (unless the context indicates another meaning). The term “common stock” means our common stock, par value $0.01 per share.
We design, manufacture and market highly engineered products and sub-systems used in the Oil & Gas, power generation, aerospace, defense, and other industrial markets. Within our major product groups, we manage a portfolio of flow control and actuation products, sub-systems and technologies that enable us to fulfill our customers’ unique application needs. We have a global presence and operate 19 major manufacturing facilities that are located in the United States, Western Europe, Morocco, India, Brazil and the People’s Republic of China. We have two reporting segments: CIRCOR Energy ("Energy Segment" or "Energy") and CIRCOR Aerospace & Defense ("Aerospace & Defense Segment" or "Aerospace & Defense"). We sell our products through approximately 800 distributors or representatives and directly to end-use customers.
Strategies
Our objective is to enhance shareholder value by focusing on growth, margin expansion, strong free cash flow, and disciplined capital deployment. We have a four-point strategy to achieve these objectives.
1) Grow Organically and Through Acquisitions. We leverage the power of our global design capabilities to develop innovative products that solve our customers’ most challenging and critical problems. New products will be an increasingly important part of our growth strategy going forward. In addition, we are positioning ourselves to grow in parts of our end markets where our products are under-represented. This could include establishing a presence in high-growth geographies where we have a limited presence today. It also could include taking products established in one end-market (e.g., distributed valves) and selling those solutions into other relevant end markets (e.g., large international projects in Oil & Gas).
In addition to organic growth, we expect to acquire businesses over time. We are primarily focused on companies with differentiated technologies in complementary markets that we already understand and where we expect substantial growth. In addition to strategic fit, the main criterion for an acquisition is return on invested capital.
2) Simplify CIRCOR. In 2013 we embarked on a long-term journey to simplify CIRCOR. While we made progress in 2014,
CIRCOR continues to operate with significant complexity. We have a large number of facilities relative to our size and believe that simplifying this structure will not only expand our margins by reducing cost, but will help us improve our customer service, operations, and controls.
3) Achieve World Class Operational Excellence. Our Global Operations and Sourcing organizations are focused on improving our quality, delivery, cost, safety and inventory performance. The primary tool for expanding performance at CIRCOR is the CIRCOR Business System. The CIRCOR Business System is based on lean operating techniques designed to continuously improve product and work flow and drive waste out of our design, manufacturing, sales, procurement and office-related processes (“Lean”). We are focused on expanding our CIRCOR Business System to reach well beyond the four walls of our existing manufacturing facilities. This program will include strong leadership at the top of CIRCOR, more effective training and standardization across the organization, robust processes and metrics, and clear lines of accountability. The CIRCOR Business System is the foundation of our future operational improvements. Achieving operational and business process excellence will be one of the critical elements to our growth, margin expansion and improved working capital objectives.
4) Build the Best Team. Finally, we have a fundamental belief at CIRCOR that the best team wins. We are committed to attracting the most talented people in our industry and we are committed to investing, engaging, challenging and developing our employees. We believe the best people combined with robust process, appropriate metrics, and individual accountability will deliver extraordinary results.

CIRCOR Consolidated
Competition
The domestic and international markets for our products are highly competitive. Some of our competitors have substantially greater financial, marketing, personnel and other resources than us. We consider product brand, quality, performance, on-time delivery, customer service, price, distribution capabilities and breadth of product offerings to be the primary competitive factors in these markets. We believe that new product development and product engineering also are important to our success and that our position in the industry is attributable, in significant part, to our ability to develop innovative products and to adapt existing products to specific customer applications.
The primary competitors of our Energy segment include: Balon Corporation, Cameron International Corp., Curtiss-Wright Corporation, Flowserve Corporation, IMI plc, Pentair Ltd, PetrolValves, SPX Corporation, Swagelok Company, Emerson and Valvitalia S.p.A.
The primary competitors of our Aerospace & Defense segment include: Crane Co., Cobham PLC, Eaton Corporation, GE
Aviation, Heroux Devtek, Lee, Magnaghi, Marotta, Maxon, Meggitt PLC, and Triumph.
New Product Development
Our engineering differentiation comes from our ability to offer products, solutions and services that address high pressure, high temperature, and caustic flow. Our solutions offer high standards of reliability, safety and durability in applications requiring precision movement and zero leakage.
We continue to develop new and innovative products to enhance our market positions. Our product development capabilities include designing and manufacturing custom applications to meet high tolerance or close precision requirements. For example, our Energy segment operation can meet the tolerance requirements of sub-sea, cryogenic environments as well as critical service steam applications. Our Aerospace & Defense segment continues to expand its integrated systems design and testing capability to support bundled systems for aeronautics applications. These testing and manufacturing capabilities enable us to develop customer-specified applications. In many cases, the unique characteristics of our customer-specified technologies have been subsequently used in broader product offerings.
We have expanded our engineering capability and capacity for new designs by using our India organization as a global engineering and technology center. Our research and development expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, were $7.8 million, $6.5 million and $8.4 million, respectively.
Customers
For the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, we did not have any customers with revenues that exceeded 5% of our consolidated revenues. Our businesses sell into both long term capital projects as well as short cycle rapid turn operators. As a result, we tend to experience fluctuations in revenues and operating results at various points across economic and business cycles. Our businesses, particularly those in the Energy segment, are cyclical in nature due to the fluctuation of the worldwide demand for oil and gas. When the worldwide demand for oil and gas is depressed, the demand for our products used in those markets decreases. Similarly, although not to the same extent as the Oil & Gas markets, the aerospace, military and maritime markets have historically experienced cyclical fluctuations in demand.
Selling and Distribution
Across our businesses we utilize a variety of channels to market our products and solutions. Those channels include direct sales, distributors and commissioned representatives. Our distribution and representative networks typically offer technically trained sales forces with strong relationships in key markets.
We believe that our well-established sales and distribution channels constitute a competitive strength. We believe that we have good relationships with our representatives and distributors. We continue to implement marketing programs to enhance these relationships. Our ongoing distribution-enhancement programs include reducing lead times, introducing new products, and offering competitive pricing, application design, technical training, and service.
Intellectual Property
We own patents that are scheduled to expire between 2016 and 2030 and trademarks that can be renewed as long as we continue to use them. We do not believe the vitality and competitiveness of any of our business segments as a whole depends on any one or more patents or trademarks. We own certain licenses such as software licenses, but we do not believe that our business as a whole depends on any one or more licenses.
Raw Materials
The raw materials used most often in our production processes are castings, forgings and bar stock of various materials, including stainless steel, carbon steel, bronze, copper, brass, titanium and aluminum. These materials are subject to price fluctuations that may adversely affect our results of operations. We purchase these materials from numerous suppliers and at times experience constraints on the supply of certain raw material as well as the inability of certain suppliers to respond to our increasing needs. Historically, increases in the prices of raw materials have been partially offset by higher sales prices, active materials management, project engineering programs and the diversity of materials used in our production processes.
Employees and Labor Relations
As of February 1, 2015, our worldwide operations directly employed approximately 2,800 people. We have 29 employees in the United States who are covered by a single collective bargaining agreement. We also have approximately 237 employees in France, 211 in Italy, 136 in Brazil, 68 in the United Kingdom, 38 in the Netherlands and 53 in Morocco covered by governmental regulations or workers’ councils. We believe that our employee relations are good at this time.
Environmental Regulations and Proceedings
As a result of our manufacturing and assembly operations, our businesses are subject to federal, state, local and foreign laws, as well as other legal requirements relating to the generation, storage, transport and disposal of materials. These laws include, without limitation, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act and the Comprehensive Environmental Response and Compensation and Liability Act, and foreign equivalents of such laws.
We currently do not anticipate any materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations as a result of our compliance with federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws. However, risk of environmental liability and charges associated with maintaining compliance with environmental laws is inherent in the nature of our manufacturing operations and there is no assurance that material liabilities or charges could not arise. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we capitalized approximately $0.3 million and expensed $1.7 million related to environmental and safety control facilities. For the year ending December 31, 2015, we expect to capitalize $0.7 million and expense $0.8 million related to environmental and safety control facilities.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Certain Risk Factors That May Affect Future Results
Set forth below are certain risk factors that we believe are material to our stockholders. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations and reputation could be harmed. You should also consider these risk factors when you read “forward-looking statements” elsewhere in this report. You can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “hope,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue,” the negative of those terms or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements are only predictions and can be adversely affected if any of the following risks occur:
Some of our end-markets are cyclical, which may cause us to experience fluctuations in revenues or operating results.
We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, fluctuations in revenues and operating results due to economic and business cycles. We sell our products principally to aerospace, military, commercial aircraft, pharmaceutical, medical, analytical equipment, Oil & Gas exploration, transmission and refining, power generation, chemical processing and maritime markets. Although we serve a variety of markets to avoid a dependency on any one, a significant downturn in any one of these markets could cause a material reduction in our revenues that could be difficult to offset. In addition, decreased market demand typically results in excess manufacturing capacity among our competitors which, in turn, results in pricing pressure. As a consequence, a significant downturn in our markets can result in lower profit margins.
In particular, our energy businesses are cyclical in nature as the worldwide demand for oil and gas fluctuates. When worldwide demand for oil and gas is depressed, the demand for our products used in maintenance and repair of existing oil and gas applications, as well as exploration or new oil and gas project applications, is reduced. As a result, we historically have generated lower revenues and profits in periods of declining demand for petrochemical products. Therefore, results of operations for any particular period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any future period. In the latter half of 2014, the price of oil dropped dramatically due to various economic and geopolitical factors. A sustained depression of
oil prices would result in a decreased demand for our oil and gas products which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Similarly, although not to the same extent as the Oil & Gas markets, the aerospace, military, and maritime markets have historically experienced cyclical fluctuations in demand that also could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
We face significant competition and, if we are not able to respond to competition, our revenues may decrease.
We face significant competition from a variety of competitors in each of our markets. Some of our competitors have substantially greater financial, marketing, personnel and other resources than we do. New competitors also could enter our markets. We consider product quality, performance, customer service, on-time delivery, price, distribution capabilities and breadth of product offerings to be the primary competitive factors in our markets. Our competitors may be able to offer more attractive pricing, duplicate our strategies, or develop enhancements to products that could offer performance features that are superior to our products. Competitive pressures, including those described above, and other factors could adversely affect our competitive position, involving a loss of market share or decreases in prices, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, some of our competitors are based in foreign countries and have cost structures and prices based on foreign currencies. The majority of our transactions are denominated in either U.S. dollar or Euro currency. Accordingly, currency fluctuations could cause our U.S. dollar and/or Euro priced products to be less competitive than our competitors’ products that are priced in other currencies.
If we cannot continue operating our manufacturing facilities at current or higher levels, our results of operations could be adversely affected.
We operate a number of manufacturing facilities for the production of our products. The equipment and management systems necessary for such operations may break down, perform poorly or fail, resulting in fluctuations in manufacturing efficiencies. Such fluctuations may affect our ability to deliver products to our customers on a timely basis, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. We have continuously enhanced and improved Lean manufacturing techniques as part of the CIRCOR Business System. We believe that this process produces meaningful reductions in manufacturing costs. However, continuous improvement of these techniques may cause short-term inefficiencies in production. If we ultimately are unable to continuously improve our processes, our results of operations may suffer.
Implementation of our acquisition, divestiture, restructuring, or simplification strategies may not be successful, which could affect our ability to increase our revenues or could reduce our profitability.
One of our continued strategies is to increase our revenues and expand our markets through acquisitions that will provide us with complementary Energy and Aerospace & Defense products and access to additional geographic markets. We expect to spend significant time and effort expanding our existing businesses and identifying, completing and integrating acquisitions. We expect to face competition for acquisition candidates that may limit the number of acquisition opportunities available to us and may result in higher acquisition prices. We cannot be certain that we will be able to identify, acquire or profitably manage additional companies or successfully integrate such additional companies without substantial costs, delays or other problems. Also, there can be no assurance that companies we acquire ultimately will achieve the revenues, profitability or cash flows, or generate the synergies upon which we justify our investment in them; as a result, any such under-performing acquisitions could result in impairment charges which would adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, acquisitions may involve a number of special risks, including: adverse effects on our reported operating results; use of cash; diversion of management’s attention; loss of key personnel at acquired companies; or unanticipated management or operational problems or legal liabilities.
We also continually review our current business and products to attempt to maximize our performance. We may in the future deem it appropriate to pursue the divestiture of product lines or businesses as conditions dictate. Any divestiture may result in a dilutive impact to our future earnings if we are unable to offset the dilutive impacts from the loss of revenue associated with the divested assets or businesses, as well as significant write-offs, including those related to goodwill and other intangible assets, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. A successful divestiture depends on various factors, including our ability to effectively transfer liabilities, contracts, facilities and employees to any purchaser, identify and separate the intellectual property to be divested from the intellectual property that we wish to retain, reduce fixed costs previously associated with the divested assets or business, and collect the proceeds from any divestitures. In addition, if customers of the divested business do not receive the same level of service from the new owners, this may adversely affect our other businesses to the extent that these customers also purchase other products offered by us. All of these efforts require varying levels of management resources, which may divert our attention from other business operations.
A recent focus of our Company is to simplify the way we are organized and the number of facilities we manage. We believe that such focus will reduce overhead structure, enhance operational synergies, and result in improved operating margins. Nevertheless, we may not achieve expected cost savings from restructuring and simplification activities and actual charges, costs and adjustments due to such activities may vary materially from our estimates. Our ability to realize anticipated cost savings, synergies, margin improvement, and revenue enhancements may be affected by a number of factors, including the following: our ability to effectively eliminate duplicative overhead, rationalize manufacturing capacity, synchronize information technology systems, consolidate warehousing and distribution facilities and shift production to more economical facilities; significant cash and non-cash integration and implementation costs or charges in order to achieve those cost savings, which could offset any such savings; and our ability to avoid labor disruption in connection with integration efforts or divestitures.
If we do not realize the expected benefits or synergies of any acquisition, divestiture, restructuring, or simplification activities, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow could be negatively impacted.
If we are unable to continue operating successfully overseas or to successfully expand into new international markets, our revenues may decrease.
We derive a significant portion of our revenue from sales outside the United States. In addition, one of our key growth strategies is to sell our products in international markets not significantly served by us in portions of Europe, Latin America and Asia. We market our products and services through direct sales, distributors, and technically trained commissioned representatives. We may not succeed in our efforts to further penetrate these markets. Moreover, conducting business outside the United States is subject to additional risks, including currency exchange rate fluctuations, changes in regional, political or economic conditions, trade protection measures such as tariffs or import or export restrictions, and unexpected changes in regulatory requirements. For example, during the past few years, we have increased our investment in Brazil. During 2014, political activities in Brazil, including strong efforts by the Brazilian government to eliminate corruption from state owned entities such as Petrobras, have resulted in project deferrals, contract cancellations, as well as, payment delays to key contractors on various Petrobras projects. These delays created cash flow problems for certain contractors which, in turn, have resulted in delayed payment for product we have previously shipped as well as postponement or cancellation of pending orders. This situation and/or one or more of these factors could prevent us from successfully expanding our presence in these international markets and could also have a material adverse effect on our current international operations.
If we cannot pass on higher raw material or manufacturing costs to our customers, we may become less profitable.
One of the ways we attempt to manage the risk of higher raw material and manufacturing costs is to increase selling prices to our customers. The markets we serve are extremely competitive and customers may not accept price increases or may look to alternative suppliers, which may negatively impact our profitability and revenues.
If our suppliers cannot provide us with adequate quantities of materials to meet our customers’ demands on a timely basis or if the quality of the materials provided does not meet our standards, we may lose customers or experience lower profitability.
Some of our customer contracts require us to compensate those customers if we do not meet specified delivery obligations. We rely on numerous suppliers to provide us with our required materials and in many instances these materials must meet certain specifications. In addition, we continue to increase our dependence on lower cost foreign sources of raw materials, components, and, in some cases, completed products. Managing a geographically diverse supply base inherently poses significant logistical challenges. While we believe that we also have improved our ability to effectively manage a global supply base, a risk nevertheless exists that we could experience diminished supplier performance resulting in longer than expected lead times and/or product quality issues. The occurrence of such factors could have a negative impact on our ability to deliver products to customers within our committed time frames and could result in reductions of our operating and net income in future periods.
Our international activities expose us to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows.
Our international manufacturing and sales activities expose us to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Such fluctuations could result in our (i) paying higher prices for certain imported goods and services, (ii) realizing lower prices for any sales denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars, (iii) realizing lower net income, on a U.S. dollar basis, from our international operations due to the effects of translation from weakened functional currencies, and (iv) realizing higher costs to settle transactions denominated in other currencies. Any of these risks could adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows. Our major foreign currency exposures involve the markets in Western Europe, Canada, Brazil and Asia.
We may use forward contracts to help manage the currency risk related to certain business transactions denominated in foreign currencies. We primarily utilize forward exchange contracts with maturities of less than eighteen months. To the extent these transactions are completed, the contracts do not subject us to significant risk from exchange rate fluctuations because they offset gains and losses on the related foreign currency denominated transactions. However, there can be no assurances that we will be able to effectively utilize these forward exchange contracts in the future to offset significant risk related to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.
If we experience delays in introducing new products or if our existing or new products do not achieve or maintain market acceptance, our revenues may decrease.
Our industries are characterized by: intense competition; changes in end-user requirements; technically complex products; and evolving product offerings and introductions.
We believe our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to anticipate or adapt to these factors and to offer, on a timely basis, products that meet customer demands. Failure to develop new and innovative products or to custom design existing products could result in the loss of existing customers to competitors or the inability to attract new business, either of which may adversely affect our revenues. The development of new or enhanced products is a complex and uncertain process requiring the anticipation of technological and market trends. We may experience design, manufacturing, marketing or other difficulties, such as an inability to attract a sufficient number of qualified engineers, which could delay or prevent our development, introduction or marketing of new products or enhancements and result in unexpected expenses.
We depend on our key personnel and the loss of their services may adversely affect our business.
We believe that our success will depend on our ability to hire new talent and the continued employment of our senior management team and other key personnel. If one or more members of our senior management team or other key personnel were unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, our business could be seriously harmed. In addition, if any of our key personnel joins a competitor or forms a competing company, some of our customers might choose to use the services of that competitor or those of a new company instead of our own. Other companies seeking to develop capabilities and products similar to ours may hire away some of our key personnel. If we are unable to maintain our key personnel and attract new employees, the execution of our business strategy may be hindered and our growth limited.
We face risks from product liability lawsuits that may adversely affect our business.
We, like other manufacturers, face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the use of our products results in personal injury, property damage or business interruption to our customers. We may be subjected to various product liability claims, including, among others, that our products include inadequate or improper instructions for use or installation, or inadequate warnings concerning the effects of the failure of our products. Although we maintain strict quality controls and procedures, including the testing of raw materials and safety testing of selected finished products, we cannot be certain that our products will be completely free from defect. In addition, in certain cases, we rely on third-party manufacturers for our products or components of our products. Although we have liability insurance coverage, we cannot be certain that this insurance coverage will continue to be available to us at a reasonable cost or, if available, will be adequate to cover any such liabilities. For example, liability insurance typically does not afford coverage for a design or manufacturing defect unless such defect results in injury to person or property. We generally attempt to contractually limit liability to our customers to risks that are insurable but are not always successful in doing so. Similarly, we generally seek to obtain contractual indemnification from our third-party suppliers, and for us to be added as an additional insured party under such parties’ insurance policies. Any such indemnification or insurance is limited by its terms and, as a practical matter, is limited to the credit worthiness of the indemnifying or insuring party. In the event that we do not have adequate insurance or contractual indemnification, product liabilities could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
We rely on information technology in our operations, and any material failure, inadequacy, interruption or security failure of that technology could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We rely on information technology networks and systems, including the Internet, to process, transmit and store electronic information, and manage or support a variety of business processes, including financial transactions and records, personal identifying information, payroll data and workforce scheduling information. We purchase some of our information technology from vendors, on whom our systems depend. We rely on commercially available systems, software, tools and monitoring to provide security for the processing, transmission and storage of company and customer information. Although we have taken steps to protect the security of our information systems and the data maintained in those systems, it is possible that our safety and security measures will not prevent the systems' improper functioning or damage or the improper access or disclosure of
personally identifiable information such as in the event of cyber-attacks. Security breaches, including physical or electronic break-ins, computer viruses, attacks by hackers and similar breaches can create system disruptions or shutdowns or the unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. If company, personal or otherwise protected information is improperly accessed, tampered with or distributed, we may incur significant costs to remediate possible injury to the affected parties and we may be subject to sanctions and civil or criminal penalties if we are found to be in violation of the privacy or security rules under federal, state, or international laws protecting confidential information. Any failure to maintain proper functionality and security of our information systems could interrupt our operations, damage our reputation, subject us to liability claims or regulatory penalties and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
The trading price of our common stock continues to be volatile and investors in our common stock may experience substantial losses.
The trading price of our common stock may be, and, in the past, has been volatile. Our common stock could decline or fluctuate in response to a variety of factors, including, but not limited to: our failure to meet our performance estimates or performance estimates of securities analysts; changes in financial estimates of our revenues and operating results or buy/sell recommendations by securities analysts; the timing of announcements by us or our competitors concerning significant product line developments, contracts or acquisitions or publicity regarding actual or potential results or performance; fluctuation in our quarterly operating results caused by fluctuations in revenue and expenses; substantial sales of our common stock by our existing shareholders; general stock market conditions; fluctuations in oil and gas prices or other economic or external factors. While we attempt in our public disclosures to provide forward-looking information in order to enable investors to anticipate our future performance, such information by its nature represents our good-faith forecasting efforts. In recent years, the unprecedented nature of credit and financial crises and economic recessions, together with the uncertain depth and duration of these crises, has rendered such forecasting more difficult. As a result, our actual results could differ materially from our forecasts which could cause further volatility in the value of our common stock.
For example, in recent years the stock market as a whole experienced dramatic price and volume fluctuations. In the past, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management attention and resources.
If our internal control over financial reporting do not comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, our business and stock price could be adversely affected.
If either management or our independent registered public accounting firm identifies one or more material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that exist as of the end of our fiscal year, the material weakness(es) will be reported either by management in its self assessment or by our independent registered public accounting firm in its report or both, which may result in a loss of public confidence and could have an adverse affect on our business and our stock price. This could also result in significant additional expenditures responding to the Section 404 internal control audit and a diversion of management attention.
The costs of complying with existing or future governmental regulations on importing and exporting practices and of curing any violations of these regulations, could increase our expenses, reduce our revenues or reduce our profitability.
We are subject to a variety of laws and international trade practices including regulations issued by the United States Bureau of Industry and Security, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of State and the Department of Treasury. We cannot predict the nature, scope or effect of future regulatory requirements to which our international trading practices might be subject or the manner in which existing laws might be administered or interpreted. Future regulations could limit the countries into which certain of our products may be sold or could restrict our access to, and increase the cost of obtaining products from, foreign sources. In addition, actual or alleged violations of such regulations could result in enforcement actions and/or financial penalties that could result in substantial costs.
Our debt agreement requires that we maintain certain ratios and limits our ability to issue equity, make acquisitions, incur debt, pay dividends, make investments, sell assets, merge or raise capital.
Our revolving credit facility agreement, dated July 31, 2014, governs our indebtedness. This agreement includes provisions which place limitations on certain activities including our ability to: issue shares of our common stock; incur additional indebtedness; create any liens or encumbrances on our assets or make any guarantees; make certain investments; pay cash dividends above certain limits; or dispose of or sell assets or enter into a merger or a similar transaction. These restrictions may
limit our ability to operate our business and may prohibit or limit our ability to execute our business strategy, compete, enhance our operations, take advantage of potential business opportunities as they arise or meet our capital needs. Furthermore, future debt instruments or other contracts could contain more restrictive financial or other covenants. The breach of any of these covenants by us or the failure by us to meet any of these conditions or requirements could result in a default under any or all of our indebtedness.
Various restrictions and agreements could hinder a takeover of us which is not supported by our board of directors or which is leveraged.
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated by-laws, as well as the Delaware General Corporation Law, contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change in control in a transaction that is not approved by our board of directors or that is on a leveraged basis or otherwise. These include provisions creating a staggered board, limiting the shareholders’ powers to remove directors, and prohibiting shareholders from calling a special meeting or taking action by written consent in lieu of a shareholders’ meeting. In addition, our board of directors has the authority, without further action by the shareholders, to set the terms of and to issue preferred stock. Issuing preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of the owners of our common stock, including the loss of voting control to others.
Delaying or preventing a takeover could result in our shareholders ultimately receiving less for their shares by deterring potential bidders for our stock or assets.
If we fail to manufacture and deliver high quality products, we may lose customers.
Product quality and performance are a priority for our customers since many of our product applications involve caustic or volatile chemicals and, in many cases, involve processes that require precise control of fluids. Our products are used in the aerospace, military, commercial aircraft, pharmaceutical, medical, analytical equipment, Oil & Gas exploration, transmission and refining, power generation, chemical processing and maritime industries. These industries require products that meet stringent performance and safety standards. If we fail to maintain and enforce quality control and testing procedures, our products will not meet these stringent performance and safety standards. Substandard products would seriously harm our reputation, resulting in both a loss of current customers to our competitors and damage to our ability to attract new customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
A change in international governmental policies or restrictions could result in decreased availability and increased costs for certain components and finished products that we purchase from sources in foreign countries, which could adversely affect our profitability.
Like most manufacturers of fluid control products, we attempt, where appropriate, to reduce costs by seeking lower cost sources of certain components and finished products. Many such sources are located in developing countries such as the People’s Republic of China, India and Taiwan, where a change in governmental approach toward U.S. trade could restrict the availability to us of such sources. In addition, periods of war or other international tension could interfere with international freight operations and hinder our ability to purchase such components and products. A decrease in the availability of these items could hinder our ability to timely meet our customers’ orders. We attempt, when possible, to mitigate this risk by maintaining alternate sources for these components and products and by maintaining the capability to produce such items in our own manufacturing facilities. However, even when we are able to mitigate this risk, the cost of obtaining such items from alternate sources or producing them ourselves is often considerably greater, and a shift toward such higher cost production could therefore adversely affect our profitability.
We, along with our customers and vendors, face the uncertainty in the public and private credit markets and in general economic conditions in the United States and around the world.
In recent years there has been at times disruption and general slowdown of the public and private capital and credit markets in the United States and around the world. Such conditions can adversely affect our revenue, results of operations and overall financial growth. Our business can be affected by a number of factors that are beyond our control such as general geopolitical, economic and business conditions and conditions in the financial services market, which each could materially impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, capital resources and liquidity. Additionally, many lenders and institutional investors, at times, have reduced funding to borrowers, including other financial institutions. Although we do not currently anticipate a need to access the credit markets for new financing in the short-term, a constriction on future lending by banks or investors could result in higher interest rates on future debt obligations or could restrict our ability to obtain sufficient financing to meet our long-term operational and capital needs or could limit our ability in the future to consummate strategic acquisitions. Any uncertainty in the credit markets could also negatively impact the ability of our customers and vendors to
finance their operations which, in turn, could result in a decline in our sales and in our ability to obtain necessary raw materials and components, thus potentially having an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
A resurgence of terrorist activity and/or political instability around the world could cause economic conditions to deteriorate and adversely impact our businesses.
In the past, terrorist attacks have negatively impacted general economic, market and political conditions. In particular, the 2001 terrorist attacks, compounded with changes in the national economy, resulted in reduced revenues in the aerospace and general industrial markets in 2002 and 2003. Although economic conditions have improved considerably, additional terrorist acts, acts of war or political instability (wherever located around the world) could cause damage or disruption to our business, our facilities or our employees which could significantly impact our business, financial condition or results of operations. The potential for future terrorist attacks, the national and international responses to terrorist attacks, political instability, and other acts of war or hostility, including the recent and current conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan and the Middle East, have created many economic and political uncertainties, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations in ways that cannot presently be predicted. In addition, with manufacturing facilities located worldwide, including facilities located in the United States, Western Europe, the People’s Republic of China, Morocco, Brazil and India, we may be impacted by terrorist actions not only against the United States but in other parts of the world as well. In some cases, we are not insured for losses and interruptions caused by terrorist acts and acts of war.
The costs of complying with existing or future environmental regulations and curing any violations of these regulations could increase our expenses or reduce our profitability.
We are subject to a variety of environmental laws relating to the storage, discharge, handling, emission, generation, use and disposal of chemicals, solid and hazardous waste and other toxic and hazardous materials used to manufacture, or resulting from the process of manufacturing, our products. We cannot predict the nature, scope or effect of future regulatory requirements to which our operations might be subject or the manner in which existing or future laws will be administered or interpreted. Future regulations could be applied to materials, products or activities that have not been subject to regulation previously. The costs of complying with new or more stringent regulations, or with more vigorous enforcement of these or existing regulations could be significant.
Environmental laws require us to maintain and comply with a number of permits, authorizations and approvals and to maintain and update training programs and safety data regarding materials used in our processes. Violations of these requirements could result in financial penalties and other enforcement actions. We also could be required to halt one or more portions of our operations until a violation is cured. Although we attempt to operate in compliance with these environmental laws, we may not succeed in this effort at all times. The costs of curing violations or resolving enforcement actions that might be initiated by government authorities could be substantial.
New regulations related to “conflict minerals” may cause us to incur additional expenses and could limit the supply and increase the cost of certain metals used in manufacturing our products.
On August 22, 2012, the SEC adopted a new rule requiring disclosures by public companies of specified minerals, known as conflict minerals, that are necessary to the functionality or production of products manufactured or contracted to be manufactured. The new rule, which became effective for 2013 and requires a disclosure report to be filed by May 31st of each year, requires companies to perform due diligence, disclose and report whether or not such minerals originate from the Democratic Republic of Congo or an adjoining country. The new rule could affect sourcing at competitive prices and availability in sufficient quantities of certain minerals used in the manufacture of our products, including tantalum, tin, gold and tungsten. The number of suppliers who provide conflict-free minerals may be limited. In addition, there may be material costs associated with complying with the disclosure requirements, such as costs related to determining the source of certain minerals used in our products, as well as costs of possible changes to products, processes, or sources of supply as a consequence of such verification activities. As our supply chain is complex, we may not be able to sufficiently verify the origins of the relevant minerals used in our products through the due diligence procedures that we implement, which may harm our reputation. In addition, we may encounter challenges to satisfy those customers who require that all of the components of our products be certified as conflict-free, which could place us at a competitive disadvantage if we are unable to do so.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.
None.
Item 2. Properties.
We maintain 18 major manufacturing facilities worldwide, including operations located in the United States, Western Europe, Morocco, India, Brazil and the People’s Republic of China. We also maintain sales offices or warehouses from which we ship finished goods to customers, distributors and commissioned representative organizations. Our executive office is located in Burlington, Massachusetts and is leased.
Our Energy segment has major manufacturing facilities located in the United States, Italy, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Germany, India, the Netherlands and the People’s Republic of China. Properties in Nerviano, Italy and Spartanburg, South Carolina are leased. Our Aerospace & Defense segment has major manufacturing facilities located in the United States, France, the United Kingdom and Morocco.

In general, we believe that our properties, including machinery, tools and equipment, are in good condition, are well maintained, and are adequate and suitable for their intended uses. Our manufacturing facilities generally operate five days per week on one or two shifts. We believe our manufacturing capacity could be increased by working additional shifts and weekends and by successful implementation of our on-going Lean manufacturing initiatives. We believe that our current facilities in mature markets will meet our near-term production requirements without the need for additional facilities.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures.
Not applicable.
Part II
Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.
Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “CIR.” Quarterly share prices and dividends declared and paid are incorporated herein by reference to Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report.
Our Board of Directors is responsible for determining our dividend policy. Although we currently intend to continue paying quarterly cash dividends, the timing and level of such dividends will necessarily depend on our board of directors’ assessments of earnings, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors, including restrictions, if any, imposed by our lenders. In the fourth quarter of 2014 our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $75 million of the Company's outstanding common stock. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” under the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further information.
As of February 16, 2015, there were 17,683,863 shares of our common stock outstanding and we had 63 holders of record of our common stock. We believe the number of beneficial owners of our common stock was substantially greater on that date.
Set forth below is a table and line graph comparing the percentage change in the cumulative total stockholder return on the Company’s common stock, based on the market price of the Company’s common stock with the total return of companies included within the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Index and both a current and former peer group of companies engaged in the valve, pump, fluid control and related industries for the five-year period commencing December 31, 2009 and ending December 31, 2014. The calculation of total cumulative return assumes a $100 investment in the Company’s common stock, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Index and the peer groups on December 31, 2009 and the reinvestment of all dividends. The historical information set forth below is not necessarily indicative of future performance.

As we look to 2015, we are witnessing a correction in customer activity, especially in our upstream oil and gas markets, due to the current macro-economic uncertainty from the decline in oil prices, currency volatility, a weak European economy, and other geopolitical risks. We believe our North American short cycle business will be impacted in the short term due to the reduction of North American upstream activity and destocking of the channel. For our large engineered projects businesses, we are seeing project delays and capital expenditure reductions, which we expect to have an adverse impact on our large project revenue in the longer term. However, we expect to see modest growth in other markets we serve: the Asian power generation markets, the global liquefied natural gas market, and certain mid and down-stream energy markets. We believe the Aerospace & Defense markets will experience modest growth based on increases in OEM production rates and volume growth for specific defense related platforms.
We are implementing actions to mitigate the impact on our earnings and better align our businesses with potential lower demand. In addition we will continue to focus on both organic and acquisition growth opportunities and we are investing in products and technologies that help solve our customers’ most difficult problems. We expect to further simplify CIRCOR by standardizing technology, reducing facilities, and consolidating suppliers among other actions. Finally, attracting and retaining talented personnel, including the development of our global sales, operations, and engineering organization, remains an important part of our strategy during 2015.
Operational excellence will be the foundation of our culture as we continue to transform CIRCOR into a world class company. We believe our cash flow from operations and financing capacity is adequate to support these activities.
Basis of Presentation
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform to currently reported presentations. We monitor our business in two segments: Energy and Aerospace & Defense.
We operate and report financial information using a 52-week fiscal year ending December 31. The data periods contained within our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q reflect the results of operations for the 13-week, 26-week and 39-week periods which generally end on the Sunday nearest the calendar quarter-end date.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our critical accounting policies were selected because they are broadly applicable within our operating units. The expenses and accrued liabilities or allowances related to certain of these policies are initially based on our best estimates at the time of original entry in our accounting records. Adjustments are recorded when our actual experience, or new information concerning our expected experience, differs from underlying initial estimates. These adjustments could be material if our actual or expected experience were to change significantly in a short period of time. We make frequent comparisons of actual experience and expected experience in order to mitigate the likelihood of material adjustments.
There have been no significant changes from the methodology applied by management for critical accounting estimates previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013. For information regarding our critical accounting policies refer to Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report, which disclosure is incorporated by reference herein.

Net Revenues
Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 decreased by $16.4 million, or 2%, to $841.4 million from $857.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The change in net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 was attributable to the following:

Our Energy segment accounted for 78% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 77% for the year ended December 31, 2013 with the Aerospace & Defense segment accounting for the remainder.
Energy segment revenues decreased $7.7 million, or 1%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease was primarily driven by lower shipment volumes in large international projects (4%) and our control valves businesses (2%) and unfavorable foreign currency of $5.9 million (1%), partially offset by higher shipment volumes in the upstream North American short-cycle (3%) and downstream instrumentation businesses (2%). Energy segment orders decreased $15.8 million, or 2.3%, to $675.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $691.7 million for the same period in 2013 primarily due to lower bookings in upstream large international projects. Orders within our project businesses can be unpredictable or "lumpy" given the nature of the procurement process.
Aerospace & Defense segment revenues decreased by $8.6 million, or 4%, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease was primarily driven by declines in our California business related to landing gear product line exits (4%) and our French operations (2%), partially offset by higher actuation shipments (2%) and favorable foreign currency of $2.0 million (1%). Aerospace & Defense orders decreased $16.2 million, or 8.5%, to $173.4 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2014 compared to $189.6 million or the same period in 2013 primarily at our French and California operations.

Operating income decreased 6%, or $4.4 million, to $64.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $69.2 million for the same period in 2013.
Operating income for our Energy segment decreased $5.5 million, or 6%, to $85.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $90.8 million for the same period in 2013. The decrease was primarily driven by higher net inventory restructuring, impairment, and special charges of $9.3 million (10%) and unfavorable foreign currency fluctuations of $1.3 million (1%), partially offset by operational increases of $5.1 million (6%) which included lower operating costs due to productivity and restructuring activities. Special charges, for the year ended December 31, 2014 included $3.0 million associated with a pre-tax loss on the December divestiture of one of our businesses as well as a $6.2 million charge associated with the settlement of a customer legal matter. Operating margins declined 60 basis points to 13.1% compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to a charge recorded in the fourth quarter of 2014 for certain Brazilian customers' overdue
accounts receiveable balances, partially offset by better product mix within our upstream North American short-cycle and higher shipment volumes within our downstream instrumentation businesses, as well as savings from productivity and restructuring actions.
Operating income for the Aerospace & Defense segment decreased $2.7 million, or 44%, to $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $6.2 million for the same period in 2013. The decrease in operating income was driven by operational decreases of $6.6 million (107%) primarily due to lower volume and productivity inefficiencies from our California and French operations, partially offset by lower net inventory restructuring, impairment, and special charges of $3.4 million (55%) and favorable foreign currency of $0.5 million (8%). Special charges for the year ended December 31, 2014 includes a pre-tax loss of $0.4 million associated with a business that was classified as held for sale. Operating margins declined 130 basis points to 1.8% compared to the same period in 2013 primarily due to operational inefficiencies at our California and French operations.
Corporate operating expenses decreased $3.8 million, or 14%, to $24.0 million, for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to lower compensation costs, professional fees, and special charges.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net, decreased $0.5 million to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. This change in interest expense was primarily due to lower outstanding debt balances during the period.
Other (Income) Expense, Net
Other income, net, was $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to other expense, net of $2.0 million in the same period of 2013. The difference of $3.2 million was primarily due to foreign currency fluctuations.
Provision for Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 20.4% for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 26.4% for the same period of 2013. The primary driver of the lower 2014 tax rate was the benefit from recognition of foreign tax credits and the reversal of the related valuation allowance.

Net Revenues
Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013 increased by $12.3 million, or 1%, to $857.8 million from $845.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The change in net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013 was attributable to the following:

|
Our Energy segment accounted for 77% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 78% for the year ended December 31, 2012 with the Aerospace & Defense segment accounting for the remainder.
Energy segment revenues increased slightly, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. The increase was primarily driven by a favorable foreign currency impact of $3.7 million partially offset by organic declines. Organic revenue decreases of 4% in the North American short-cycle business driven in large part by lower rig counts year over year, were partially offset by increases in large international projects (4%). Increased shipments from our power group and instrumentation and sampling businesses were offset by lower shipments from our Brazilian business. Energy segment orders decreased $22.5 million (3%) to $691.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 compared to $714.2 million for the same period in 2012, primarily due to lower North American short-cycle orders (4%) driven in large part by lower rig counts in North America and higher inventory levels at our distribution customers partially offset by higher orders from our instrumentation and sampling business (1%).
Aerospace & Defense segment revenues increased by $10.7 million (6%) for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 primarily as a result of organic increases of $10.1 million plus favorable foreign currency fluctuations of $0.6 million. The organic increases were primarily due to higher sales across most of our businesses as we began delivering products for our new programs. Aerospace & Defense orders remained consistent at $189.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and the same period in 2012.

Impairment Charges
During fourth quarter of 2013, in connection with a change to our organizational structure to simplify the way the Company is managed as well as other evolving business factors, we determined that certain Aerospace & Defense trade name intangible assets had no future usage and should be impaired. This resulted in an indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment charge during the year ended December 31, 2013 of $6.9 million.
During the year ended December 31, 2012 we recorded intangible asset impairment charges of $2.2 million and $8.2 million for the Energy and Aerospace & Defense segments, respectively. These impairment charges were primarily a result of restructuring activities at operations in Brazil and California.
Special Charges / (Recoveries)
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 we incurred $8.6 million of special charges, net of recoveries. These charges of $5.4 million and $5.2 million for the Energy and Aerospace & Defense segments, respectively, were associated with restructuring actions that were announced in both 2013 and 2012. In addition we incurred $1.1 million of Corporate special compensation-related charges associated with the retirement of our former CFO. These special charges were offset by special recoveries associated with an arbitration recovery of $3.2 million in the Energy segment.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 we incurred $5.3 million in special charges; $2.5 million associated with our 2012 Announced Restructuring and $2.7 million associated with the separation of our former CEO.
Operating income increased 49%, or $22.6 million, to $69.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $46.5 million for the same period in 2012.
Operating income for our Energy segment increased $23.0 million, or 34%, to $90.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by higher organic increases of $19.3 million, favorable foreign currency impacts of $1.1 million and lower inventory restructuring, impairment, and special charges of $2.6 million in 2013 compared to 2012. Operating margins improved 340 basis points to 13.7% on essentially flat revenue growth. Organic operating margins increased 280 basis points primarily driven by higher shipments and favorable pricing within our large international project business (approximately 290 basis points) and power businesses (approximately
90 basis points). These organic increases were partially offset by decreased revenue in the North American short cycle market (approximately 100 basis points) driven primarily by lower rig counts year over year.
Operating income for the Aerospace & Defense segment increased $1.4 million, or 29%, to $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. Operating income improved primarily due to $2.1 million of operational improvements offset by higher inventory restructuring, impairment, and special charges of $0.5 million in 2013 compared to 2012. Organically operating income increased $1.0 million primarily due to increased shipments in our UK-based defense businesses, productivity from restructuring actions, partially offset by increased new program development and start- up costs and factory reorganization costs associated with landing gear production.
Corporate operating expenses increased $1.8 million, or 7%, to $27.8 million, for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2012, primarily due to higher incentive and share based compensation and professional fees partially offset by lower special charges.

Interest expense, net, decreased $1.1 million to $3.2 million for the year ended 2013 compared to $4.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. This decrease in interest expense was primarily due to lower interest charges from lower international borrowings.
Other Expense, Net
Other expense, net, was $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $0.5 million in the same period of 2012 due largely as a result of unfavorable foreign exchange expenses associated with the remeasurement of foreign currency balances.
Provision for Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 26.4% for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to 26.2% for the same period of 2012. The primary driver of the lower 2012 tax rate was higher foreign source income which is taxed at a lower rate than U.S. income.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity needs arise primarily from capital investment in machinery, equipment and the improvement of facilities, funding working capital requirements to support business growth initiatives, acquisitions, dividend payments, pension funding obligations and debt service costs. We have historically generated cash from operations and remain in a strong financial position, with resources available for reinvestment in existing businesses, strategic acquisitions and managing our capital structure on a short and long-term basis.
The following table summarizes our cash flow activities for the twelve month periods indicated (in thousands):
|
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| 2014 | | 2013 | | 2012 |
Cash flow provided by (used in): | | | | | |

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we generated $70.8 million in cash flow from operating activities compared to $72.2 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The $1.4 million decrease in cash generated from operating activities was primarily due to lower cash inflows from accounts receivables, net of $45.4 million partially offset by lower accounts payable outflows of $42.0 million as compared to the prior year.
During the year ended December 31, 2014, we used $1.8 million for investing activities as compared to $13.3 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The reduction of cash used for investing activities was directly related to $10.2 million of proceeds we received for 2014 business divestitures.
During the year ended December 31, 2014, we used $37.7 million for financing activities as compared to $19.2 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The increase of cash used for financing activities was primarily due to net $18.5 million repayment of borrowings during 2014.
As of December 31, 2014, total debt was $13.7 million compared to $49.6 million at December 31, 2013 due to repayments on existing borrowings including our credit facility. Total debt as a percentage of total shareholders’ equity was 2.8% as of December 31, 2014 compared to 10.4% as of December 31, 2013.
As a result of a significant portion of our cash balances being denominated in Euros and Canadian Dollars, the strengthening of the US Dollar resulted in a $12.1 million dollar decrease in cash balances as compared to the prior year.
On July 31, 2014, we entered into a new five year unsecured credit agreement ("2014 Credit Agreement"), that provides for a $400 million revolving line of credit. The 2014 Credit Agreement includes a $200 million accordion feature for a maximum facility size of $600 million. The 2014 Credit Agreement also allows for additional indebtedness not to exceed $110 million. We anticipate using this 2014 Credit Agreement to fund potential acquisitions, to support our operational growth initiatives and working capital needs, and for general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2014, we had borrowings of $5.0 million outstanding under our credit facility and $51.3 million outstanding under letters of credit.
The 2014 Credit Agreement contains covenants that require, among other items, maintenance of certain financial ratios and also limit our ability to: enter into secured and unsecured borrowing arrangements; issue dividends to shareholders; acquire and dispose of businesses; invest in capital equipment; transfer assets among domestic and international entities; participate in certain higher yielding long-term investment vehicles; and issue additional shares of our stock. The two primary financial covenants are leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. We were in compliance with all financial covenants related to our existing debt obligations at December 31, 2014 and we believe it is reasonably likely that we will continue to meet such covenants in the near future.
The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.73:1 at December 31, 2014 compared to 2.84:1 at December 31, 2013. The decrease in the current ratio was primarily due to a $16.5 million increase in accounts payable as of December 31, 2014 as compared to December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2014, cash and cash equivalents totaled $121.3 million, all held in foreign bank accounts with the exception of $5.4 million. This compares to $102.2 million of cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2013 substantially all of which was held in foreign bank accounts. The cash and cash equivalents located at our foreign subsidiaries may not be repatriated to the United States or other jurisdictions without significant tax implications. We believe that our U.S. based subsidiaries, in the aggregate, will generate positive operating cash flows and in addition we may utilize our 2014 Credit Facility for U.S. based subsidiary cash needs. As a result, we believe that we will not need to repatriate cash from our foreign subsidiaries with earnings that are indefinitely reinvested.
In 2015, we expect to generate positive cash flow from operating activities sufficient to support our capital expenditures and pay dividends of approximately $2.7 million based on our current dividend practice of paying $0.15 per share annually. Based on our expected cash flows from operations and contractually available borrowings under our credit facility, we expect to have sufficient liquidity to fund working capital needs and future growth. We continue to search for strategic acquisitions; a larger acquisition may require additional borrowings and/or the issuance of our common stock.

The interest on certain of our other debt balances, with scheduled repayment dates between 2015 and 2018 and interest rates ranging between 1.90% and 15.92%, have been included in the "Interest payments on debt" line within the Contractual Cash Obligations schedule. The most significant of our long-term debt balances is the $5.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the 2014 Credit Agreement. Capital lease obligations of $0.2 million and $0.2 million are included in the “Current portion of long-term debt” and “Long-term debt, less current portion” line items, respectively.
The most significant of our commercial contract commitments relate to approximately $110.0 million of commitments related to open purchase orders, $3.6 million of which extend to 2016 and beyond. The remaining $2.0 million in commitments primarily relate to loan commitment fees and employment agreements.
In 2014 and 2013, we contributed $1.6 million to our qualified defined benefit pension plan in addition to $0.4 million in payments to our nonqualified supplemental plan each year. In 2015, we expect to make plan contributions totaling $2.0 million, consisting of $1.6 million in contributions to our qualified plan and payments of $0.4 million for our nonqualified plan. The estimates for plan funding for future periods may change as a result of the uncertainties concerning the return on plan assets, the number of plan participants, and other changes in actuarial assumptions. We anticipate fulfilling these commitments through our generation of cash flow from operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to investors.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market Risk
The Oil & Gas markets historically have been subject to cyclicality depending upon supply and demand for crude oil, its derivatives and natural gas. When oil or gas prices decrease, expenditures on maintenance and repair decline rapidly and outlays for exploration and in-field drilling projects decrease and, accordingly, demand for valve products is reduced. However, when oil and gas prices rise, maintenance and repair activity and spending for facilities projects normally increase and we benefit from increased demand for valve products. However, oil or gas price increases may be considered temporary in nature or not driven by customer demand and, therefore, may result in longer lead times for increases in petrochemical sales orders. As a result, the timing and magnitude of changes in market demand for oil and gas valve products are difficult to predict. Similarly, although not to the same extent as the Oil & Gas markets, the general industrial, chemical processing, aerospace, military and maritime markets have historically experienced cyclical fluctuations in demand. These fluctuations may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of CIRCOR International, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CIRCOR International, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014. Our audits of the basic consolidated financial statements included the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CIRCOR International Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated February 18, 2015 expressed an unqualified opinion.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of CIRCOR International, Inc.:
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Circor International, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014, and our report dated February 18, 2015 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.
