Includes intersegment sales and profit in inventory eliminations and unallocated corporate expenses.  There were no significant unallocated corporate expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and September 25, 2011.  The three months ended July 1, 2012, and nine months ended September 30, 2012, include a $6 million gain ($4 million after-tax) related to adjustments from our 2011 divestitures.  The nine months ended September 25, 2011, include a $68 million gain ($37 million after-tax) related to the sale of certain assets and liabilities of our exhaust business from the Components segment.  The gains have been excluded from segment results as they were not considered in our evaluation of operating results for the corresponding periods.   There were no other significant unallocated corporate expenses.

Depreciation and amortization as shown on a segment basis excludes the amortization of debt discount that is included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as “Interest expense.”

NOTE 2.  INCOME TAXES

 

Our effective tax rate for the year is expected to approximate 26.5 percent, absent any discrete period activity.  Our tax rate is generally less than the 35 percent U.S. income tax rate primarily due to lower tax rates on foreign income.  The tax rates for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2012, were 24.1 percent and 25.5 percent, respectively.  These tax rates include a $16 million tax benefit for third quarter discrete tax adjustments, $6 million of which related to a dividend distribution of accumulated foreign income earned in prior years.  These discrete tax adjustments also included a discrete tax benefit of $13 million for prior year tax return true-up adjustments and a discrete tax charge of $3 million related to the third quarter enactment of U.K. tax law changes. 

The effective tax rate for the three month period ended July 1, 2012, was 25.1 percent and with less than the 35 percent U.S. income tax rate primarily due to lower tax rates on foreign income.

 

The tax rates for the three and nine month periods ended September 25, 2011, were 25.0 percent and 28.2 percent, respectively, and included a net discrete income tax benefit of $29 million (net of additional reserves for uncertain tax positions of $39 million) related to prior year refund claims filed for additional research tax credits, additional foreign income and foreign tax credits, as well as other adjustments.  This benefit also included discrete income tax charges of $2 million for prior year tax return true-up adjustments and $3 million related to the third quarter enactment of U.K. tax law changes in the three and nine month periods ended September 25, 2011.   Additionally, the tax rate for the nine month period included a second quarter discrete income tax charge of $4 million related to the enactment of state tax law changes in Indiana.  The decrease in the 2012 effective tax rates versus the comparable periods in 2011 is due primarily to our assertion that income earned after 2011 by our China operations is permanently reinvested, as well as certain tax planning strategies implemented in our U.K. subsidiaries.

NOTE 3.  ACQUISITIONS

 

In April 2012, we reached an agreement to acquire the doser technology and business assets from Hilite Germany GmbH (Hilite) in a cash transaction.  Dosers are products that enable compliance with emission standards in certain aftertreatment systems and complement our current product offerings.  The transaction was approved by German regulators in June and closed on July 18, 2012.  The purchase price was $176 million and is summarized below.  There was no contingent consideration associated with this transaction.  During the first nine months of 2012 we expensed approximately $4 million of acquisition related costs.

 

The acquisition of Hilite was accounted for as a business combination, with the results of the acquired entity and the goodwill included in the Components operating segment in the third quarter of 2012.  The majority of the purchase price was allocated to technology and customer related intangible assets and goodwill, most of which is expected to be fully deductible for tax purposes.  We expect the Hilite acquisition to strengthen our aftertreatment product offerings.  This acquisition enhances our technical capabilities and keeps us in a strong position to meet the needs of current customers and grow into new markets, especially as an increasing number of regions around the world adopt tougher emission standards.

Net sales for Hilite were $77 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011.

 

In July 2012, we acquired an additional 45 percent interest in Cummins Central Power from the former principal for consideration of approximately $20 million.  The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination, with the results of the acquired entity included in the Distribution operating segment in the third quarter of 2012.  Distribution segment results also included a $7 million gain, as we were required to re-measure our pre-existing 35 percent ownership interest in Cummins Central Power to fair value in accordance with GAAP.  Net sales for Cummins Central Power were $209 million for the 12 months ended December 31, 2011.

FINANCIAL MEASURES THAT SUPPLEMENT GAAP

(Unaudited)

 

Net income and diluted earnings per share (EPS) attributable to Cummins Inc. excluding special items

 

We believe this is a useful measure of our operating performance for the periods presented as it illustrates our operating performance without regard to special items including the gain related to the sale of certain assets and liabilities and discrete income tax items.  This measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may not be consistent with measures used by other companies.  It should be considered supplemental data.  The following table reconciles net income attributable to Cummins Inc. to net income attributable to Cummins Inc. excluding special items for the three month periods ended September 30, 2012, July 1, 2012 and September 25, 2011.
