NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2010
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Preparation of Financial Statements

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of Robbins & Myers, Inc. and subsidiaries (“Company,” “R&M,” “we,” “our” or “us”) contain all adjustments, consisting of normally recurring items, necessary to present fairly our financial condition as of November 30, 2010 and August 31, 2010, and the results of our operations and cash flows for the three month periods ended November 30, 2010 and 2009. Results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

While we believe that the disclosures are adequately presented, it is suggested that these consolidated condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. There have been no material changes in the accounting policies followed by us during fiscal year 2011 (“fiscal 2011”) from fiscal year 2010 (“fiscal 2010”). Certain amounts presented in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to our current year presentation. These reclassifications had no material impact on our financial position, earnings, or cash flows.

NOTE 2—Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill for the three month period ended November 30, 2010, by reportable segment, are as follows:

		Process				Fluid
		Solutions				Mgmt.				Romaco
		Segment				Segment				Segment				Total
		(In thousands)
Balance as of September 1, 2010		$	100,278			$	149,463			$	10,591			$	260,332
Translation adjustment impact			3,607				1,162				550				5,319
Balance as of November 30, 2010		$	103,885			$	150,625			$	11,141			$	265,651

Information regarding our other intangible assets is as follows:

		As of November 30, 2010												As of August 31, 2010
		Carrying				Accumulated								Carrying				Accumulated
		Amount				Amortization				Net				Amount				Amortization				Net
		(In thousands)
Patents and Trademarks		$	9,556			$	7,591			$	1,965			$	9,434			$	7,465			$	1,969
Non-compete Agreements			8,779				7,461				1,318				8,680				7,359				1,321
Financing Costs			9,618				9,136				482				9,536				9,052				484
Other			5,158				5,158				—				5,120				5,120				—
Total		$	33,111			$	29,346			$	3,765			$	32,770			$	28,996			$	3,774

The amortization expense for the three months ended November 30, 2010 was $135,000. We estimate that the amortization expense will be approximately $400,000 for the remainder of fiscal 2011 and $500,000 for each of the next five years beginning fiscal 2012. The expected amortization expense is an estimate. Actual amounts of amortization expense may differ from the estimated amounts due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, impairment of intangible assets, intangible asset acquisitions, accelerated amortization of intangible assets and other events.

NOTE 3—Net Income per Share

		Three Months Ended
		November 30,
		2010				2009
		(In thousands, except per
		share amounts)
Numerator:
Net income attributable to Robbins & Myers, Inc.		$	14,696			$	6,030
Denominator:

Basic net income per share		$	0.45			$	0.18
Diluted net income per share		$	0.44			$	0.18

As of November 30, 2010 and 2009; 161,000 and 230,000, respectively, of stock options outstanding were antidilutive and excluded from the computation of diluted net income per share.

NOTE 4—Product Warranties

Warranty obligations are contingent upon product failure rates, material required for the repairs and service delivery costs. We estimate the warranty accrual based on specific product failures that are known to us plus an additional amount based on the historical relationship of warranty claims to sales.

Changes in our product warranty liability during the period are as follows:

		Three Months Ended
		November 30, 2010
		(In thousands)
Balance at beginning of the period		$	6,292
Warranty expense			522
Deductions / payments			(694	)
Translation adjustment impact			28
Balance at end of the period		$	6,148

NOTE 5—Long-Term Debt

		November 30, 2010
		(In thousands)
Senior debt:
Revolving credit loan		$	—
Other			238
Total debt			238
Less current portion			140
Long-term debt		$	98

Our Bank Credit Agreement (“Agreement”) provides that we may borrow on a revolving credit basis up to a maximum of $150,000,000 and includes a $100,000,000 expansion feature. All outstanding amounts under the Agreement are due and payable on December 19, 2011. Interest is variable based upon formulas tied to LIBOR or an alternative base rate defined in the Agreement, at our option, and is payable quarterly. Indebtedness under the Agreement is unsecured except for the pledge of the stock of our U.S. subsidiaries and approximately two-thirds of the stock of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries. While no amounts are outstanding under the Agreement at November 30, 2010, we have $33,811,000 of standby letters of credit outstanding at November 30, 2010. These standby letters of credit are used as security for advance payments received from customers and for future payments to our vendors. Accordingly, under the Agreement we have $116,189,000 of unused borrowing capacity.

The Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants including limitations on indebtedness, acquisitions, asset sales, sales and lease backs, and cash dividends as well as financial covenants relating to interest coverage, leverage and net worth. As of November 30, 2010, we are in compliance with these covenants.

On October 6, 2010, we obtained the required waiver from the parties to the Agreement regarding any event of default that may occur under the Agreement arising solely as a result of the approval of the merger with T-3 Energy Services, Inc. by either the Board of Directors or the shareholders of R&M.

NOTE 6—Retirement Benefits

Pension and other postretirement plan costs are as follows:

Pension Benefits

		Three Months Ended
		November 30,
		2010				2009
		(In thousands)
Service cost		$	564			$	531
Interest cost			2,206				2,470
Expected return on plan assets			(1,745	)			(1,692	)
Amortization of transition asset			(9	)			(9	)
Amortization of prior service cost			59				182
Amortization of unrecognized losses			1,015				797
Settlement/curtailment expense			1,418				161
Net periodic benefit cost		$	3,508			$	2,440

We entered into a new labor agreement in one of our U.S. facilities in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. As a result, we incurred curtailment expense of approximately $1,200,000 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Curtailment of the pension plan is expected to reduce pension costs in future years.

Other Postretirement Benefits

		Three Months Ended
		November 30,
		2010				2009
		(In thousands)
Service cost		$	140			$	155
Interest cost			332				345
Amortization of prior service cost			53				53
Amortization of unrecognized losses			150				72
Net periodic benefit cost		$	675			$	625

NOTE 7—Income Taxes

In determining our quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on various factors, including expected annual income, statutory tax rates, tax planning opportunities in the various jurisdictions in which we operate, permanent items, state tax rates and our ability to utilize various tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards. Subsequent recognition, derecognition and measurement of a tax position taken in a previous period are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability in effective tax rates from quarter to quarter.

The effective tax rate was 37.7% for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and 35.1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The first quarter fiscal 2011 rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and the prior year rate due to net operating losses in certain tax jurisdictions for which no tax benefit was recorded.

The balance of unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, as of November 30, 2010 and August 31, 2010 was $4.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively, all of which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized in future periods.

NOTE 8—Comprehensive Income

		Three Months Ended
		November 30,
		2010				2009
		(In thousands)
Net income including noncontrolling interest		$	15,092			$	6,226
Other comprehensive income:

Comprehensive income			19,293				15,735
Comprehensive income attributable to noncontrolling interest			(642	)			(540	)
Comprehensive income attributable to Robbins & Myers, Inc.		$	18,651			$	15,195

NOTE 9—Stock Compensation

We sponsor a long-term incentive stock plan to provide for the granting of stock-based compensation to certain officers and other key employees. Under the plan, the stock option price per share may not be less than the fair market value per share as of the date of grant. Outstanding grants generally become exercisable over a three-year period. In addition, we sponsor a long-term incentive plan for selected participants who earn performance share awards on varying target levels of earnings per share and return on net assets. As of November 30, 2010 we had $5,234,000 of compensation expense not yet recognized related to nonvested stock awards. The weighted average period over which this compensation cost will be recognized is 2.3 years. There were 5,334 stock options exercised in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, and no stock options were exercised in the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

Total stock compensation expense for all stock based awards for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010 was $678,000 ($441,000 after tax) and $835,000 ($543,000 after tax), respectively.

NOTE 10—Business Segments

The following tables present information about our reportable business segments. Our business segments are reported on the same basis used internally for evaluating performance and for allocating resources.

Total		$	842,509			$	817,021

NOTE 11—Share Repurchase Program

On October 27, 2008, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 3.0 million of our currently outstanding common shares (the “Program”). Prior to fiscal 2010, we acquired approximately 2.0 million shares, leaving approximately 1.0 million shares available to be repurchased under this Program. Repurchases under the Program have and will generally be made in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions not exceeding prevailing market prices, subject to regulatory considerations and market conditions, and have and will be funded from the Company’s available cash and credit facilities. There were no shares repurchased under the Program in fiscal 2010 or in the three month period ended November 30, 2010.

NOTE 12—New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued and, in April 2009, amended a new business combination standard codified within Accounting Standards Codification™ (“ASC”) 805, which changed the accounting for business acquisitions. Accounting for business combinations under this standard requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. This standard was effective for us on September 1, 2009. The standard had no immediate impact on our consolidated financial statements but could affect our financial position and results of operations depending on future acquisitions.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements,” that amends existing disclosure requirements under ASC 820, by adding required disclosures about items transferring into and out of levels 1 and 2 in the fair value hierarchy; adding separate disclosures about purchase, sales, issuances, and settlements relative to level 3 measurements; and clarifying, among other things, the existing fair value disclosures about the level of disaggregation. This ASU was effective for us in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010, except for the requirement to provide level 3 activity of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements on a gross basis, which is effective beginning in our fiscal 2012. The adoption of this standard that was applicable for fiscal 2010 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. We do not expect the remaining adoption of this standard in fiscal 2012 for level 3 activity disclosure to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, “Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations,” that addresses diversity in practice about the interpretation of the pro forma revenue and earnings disclosure requirements for business combinations. The amendments in this standard specify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior reporting period only. This standard also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures under ASC 805 to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. The amendments in this ASU are effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. This standard will be effective for us beginning in our fiscal 2012, depending on future acquisitions. We do not expect the pro forma disclosure requirements under this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 13—Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued an accounting standard, codified in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. We adopted this standard on September 1, 2008 for all financial assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value in our consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually).

In February 2008, the FASB deferred the effective date for certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually) to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company adopted the remaining provisions of this fair value measurement standard related to nonfinancial assets and liabilities, including goodwill and intangibles, prospectively on September 1, 2009.

The following table summarizes the bases used to measure certain financial assets at fair value on a recurring basis as of November 30, 2010 (in thousands):

						Quoted Prices
						in Active				Significant
						Markets for				Other				Significant
		Fair Value at				Identical				Observable				Unobservable
		November 30,				Assets				Inputs				Inputs
		2010				(Level 1)				(Level 2)				(Level 3)
Cash and cash equivalents (1)		$	144,209			$	144,209			$	—			$	—
Total assets at fair value		$	144,209			$	144,209			$	—			$	—

Non-Financial Assets and Liabilities at Fair value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis; that is, the assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (e.g., when there is evidence of impairment). At November 30, 2010, no fair value adjustments or fair value measurements were required for nonfinancial assets or liabilities.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and debt. The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term debt approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of long-term debt equals its carrying value as it is predominantly at a variable rate.

NOTE 14—Pending Merger

On October 6, 2010, Robbins & Myers, Inc. (“R&M”), Triple Merger I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of R&M (“Merger Sub I”), Triple Merger II, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of R&M (“Merger Sub II”), and T-3 Energy Services, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“T-3”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub I will merge with and into T-3, with T-3 surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of R&M (the “Merger”). The Merger Agreement and the Merger have been unanimously approved by the Boards of Directors of both R&M and T-3.

T-3 (NASDAQ: “TTES”) designs, manufactures, repairs and services products used in the drilling and completion of new oil and gas wells, the workover of existing wells, and the production and transportation of oil and gas. Its products are used in both onshore and offshore applications throughout the world. Upon completion of the proposed merger, we expect T-3 to initially operate under our Fluid Management segment.

Under the Merger Agreement, T-3 stockholders will receive 0.894 common shares of R&M without par value, plus $7.95 in cash, without interest, for each share of common stock of T-3, par value $0.001 per share.

The exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted in the event of any change in the price of R&M common shares or T-3 common stock between the date of the Merger Agreement and the closing. Because the exchange ratio is fixed, the value of the consideration paid for each share of T-3 common stock will vary based upon any changes in the market value of common shares of R&M. Changes in the market value of shares of T-3 common stock will have no effect upon the value of the consideration paid for each share of T-3 common stock.

At the special meeting of R&M shareholders, scheduled on January 7, 2011, R&M shareholders will be asked to vote on the issuance of R&M common shares to T-3 stockholders in the Merger and approval of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. At the special meeting of T-3 stockholders, also scheduled on January 7, 2011, T-3 stockholders will be asked to vote on the approval of the Merger and adoption of the Merger Agreement.

The issuance of R&M common shares to T-3 stockholders and the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be approved if the votes cast in favor of the proposal represent two-thirds or more of all R&M common shares entitled to vote on the proposal. Adoption of the Merger Agreement requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of T-3 common stock entitled to vote on the proposal. Completion of the Merger is conditioned on approval by R&M shareholders and T-3 stockholders.

The Merger Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the effective time of the Merger, even after the receipt of the requisite shareholder approvals, by mutual written consent of R&M and T-3, or by either R&M or T-3 in certain circumstances, including: (1) the Merger is not completed by May 15, 2011, (2) certain legal restraints preventing completion of the merger are in effect and have become final and nonappealable, (3) R&M shareholders fail to approve the merger proposals, (4) T-3 stockholders fail to approve the merger proposals, or (5) the other party breaches the Merger Agreement in a way that would entitle the party seeking to terminate the agreement not to complete the merger (provided the terminating party is not also in breach of the Merger Agreement), subject to the right of the breaching party to cure the breach if it is curable.

Upon termination of the Merger Agreement, under certain circumstances, R&M will be required to pay T-3 a termination fee of $24 million, or T-3 will be required to pay R&M a termination fee of $12 million.

Annual revenues of T-3 for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were approximately $218 million and $285 million, respectively. Total assets of T-3 as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 were approximately $280 million and $287 million, respectively.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Overview

We are a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of highly engineered, application-critical equipment and systems for the energy, industrial, chemical and pharmaceutical markets worldwide. We attribute our success to our close and continuing interaction with customers, our manufacturing, sourcing and application engineering expertise and our ability to serve customers globally. We attempt to continually develop initiatives to improve our performance in these key areas. World-wide economic conditions deteriorated in our fiscal year 2009, to which we responded by cutting costs, initiating restructuring programs to reduce manufacturing capacity while increasing utilization, standardizing product offerings to allow greater utilization of our lower cost manufacturing facilities, leveraging functional resources, and further integrating our business activities. We expect to continue our restructuring and streamlining efforts into fiscal 2011, along with our renewed focus on organic growth and acquisitions to improve our competitiveness, financial results and long-term profitability.

Our Company-wide focuses for fiscal 2011 are to successfully integrate our proposed acquisition of T-3 Energy Services, Inc. (“T-3”); further improve our cost structure and our competitive advantage; develop sales, marketing and product management capabilities to increase sales and margins; drive performance with strategy deployment and commercialize new products in order to achieve our agenda of profitable growth, improved operating efficiency and organizational effectiveness.

While differences exist among the Company’s businesses and geographical locations, on an overall basis, demand for the Company’s products increased in the first three months of fiscal 2011 as compared with the comparable period of fiscal 2010, resulting in aggregate year-over-year sales growth and improved margins. We are cautiously optimistic that the worldwide economic recovery and recent market trends will continue to gain strength and provide positive momentum in fiscal 2011, following five quarters of sequential growth in consolidated orders and an increase in consolidated backlog throughout fiscal 2010 and into fiscal 2011.

With approximately 59% of our sales outside the United States, we were also marginally impacted by foreign currency translation in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 due to the U.S. dollar slightly weakening relative to our other principal operating currencies. The impact on net income, sales and orders due to foreign exchange changes was immaterial for the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Additionally, the assets and liabilities of our foreign operations are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with related gains or losses reported as a separate component of our shareholders’ equity, except for Venezuela which is reported following highly inflationary accounting rules under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The marginal strengthening of most foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 did not materially impact our financial condition at the end of the quarter as compared with end of fiscal 2010.

On October 6, 2010, we announced an agreement to acquire T-3, a provider of oilfield and pipeline products and services, in a transaction valued at approximately $422 million as of the date of the announcement, net of cash assumed. Under the terms of the merger agreement, for each share of T-3 common stock, T-3 stockholders will receive 0.894 of our common shares plus $7.95 in cash without interest. Accordingly, T-3 stockholders are estimated to receive an aggregate of approximately 12 million of our common shares and $106 million in cash, which we expect to pay from our available cash resources. Upon closing of the transaction, we expect T-3 stockholders to own approximately 27% of our outstanding common shares.

We currently expect to complete the merger (See Note 14—Pending Merger) in early calendar year 2011, subject to receipt of required shareholder approvals on January 7, 2011, and the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the merger described in the merger agreement. Upon completion of the merger, we expect T-3 to initially operate under our Fluid Management segment.

Our business consists of three market-focused segments: Fluid Management, Process Solutions and Romaco.

Fluid Management. Order levels from customers served by our Fluid Management segment continued to show a strong upward trend in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Demand for our energy products remains robust and industrial demand is improving. Our primary objectives for this segment are to increase our manufacturing capacity to meet current demand, expand our geographic reach, improve our selling and product management capabilities, commercialize new products in our niche market sectors, develop new customer relationships and successfully integrate T-3. Our Fluid Management business segment designs, manufactures and markets equipment and systems, including hydraulic drilling power sections, standard and customized fluid-agitation equipment and systems, down-hole and industrial progressing cavity pumps, wellhead systems, grinders, rod guides, tubing rotators, pipeline closure products and valves. These products are used in oil and gas exploration and recovery, specialty chemical, wastewater treatment and a variety of other industrial applications.

Process Solutions. Order levels in our Process Solutions segment improved sequentially each quarter of fiscal 2010, and first quarter fiscal 2011 orders were much higher than the comparable period in the prior year. However, pricing has not fully recovered, especially in European chemical capital goods end markets. Our primary objectives are to increase the capabilities of our low cost locations, standardize our products to increase operating flexibility and lower costs, integrate our global operations and increase our focus on aftermarket opportunities. Our Process Solutions business segment designs, manufactures and services glass-lined reactors and storage vessels, customized equipment and systems and customized fluoropolymer-lined fittings, vessels and accessories, primarily for the pharmaceutical and specialty chemical markets.

Romaco. Order levels in our Romaco segment also trended higher in fiscal 2010 and continued to show strength in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The primary target markets for Romaco include pharmaceutical, healthcare, food and cosmetics. Our primary objectives are to focus on engineering solutions while implementing supply chain management for base components and modules, increase our market presence for certain applications, further develop our global distribution capabilities and increase our focus on aftermarket opportunities. Our Romaco business segment designs, manufactures and markets packaging and secondary processing equipment for the pharmaceutical, healthcare, nutraceutical, food and cosmetic industries. Packaging applications include blister and strip packaging for various products including tablets, effervescent tablets and capsules; filling of both liquid and powder into vials and bottles, capsule and tube filling; tablet counting and packaging for bottles; customized packaging for drug delivery devices; as well as secondary processing for liquids and semi-solids.

The following tables present the components of our Consolidated Condensed Income Statement and segment information for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and 2010.

EBIT			92				(758	)
EBIT %			0.4	%			(4.3	)%

The comparability of the segment data is impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates due to translation of the non-U.S. dollar denominated subsidiary results into U.S. dollars.

EBIT (Income before interest and income taxes) is a non-GAAP measure. The Company uses this measure to evaluate its performance and believes this measure is helpful to investors in assessing its performance. A reconciliation of this measure to net income is included in our Consolidated Condensed Income Statement. EBIT is not a measure of cash available for use by the Company.

Net Sales

Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $163.9 million, or $34.5 million higher than consolidated net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2010.

The Fluid Management segment had sales of $91.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with $68.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The increase was primarily due to higher customer demand in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 over the comparable period in the prior year, resulting from higher oil prices worldwide, an increased demand for horizontal drilling rigs used in North American shale formations and higher general industrial and specialty chemical activity. Orders for this segment were impacted by the same factors and were $102.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with $68.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Ending backlog at November 30, 2010 of $68.3 million was 18% higher than at the end of the prior year.

The Process Solutions segment had sales of $49.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, compared with $43.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of 14%. Segment orders improved from the first quarter of fiscal 2010 levels to $54.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, reflecting improved market conditions in certain end markets we serve, an increase of $12.1 million, or 29% from the prior year period. Demand in our European chemical capital goods end markets remained weak, while demand in our other markets was favorable. Ending backlog at November 30, 2010 of $85.2 million was 8% higher than at the end of the prior year.

The Romaco segment, which is primarily a European-based business, had sales of $23.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with $17.7 million in the comparable period of the prior year. Excluding the impact of currency translation, sales increased by $6.2 million or 35%. Orders for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 were $33.5 million compared with $27.1 million in the comparable period in the prior year. Adjusting for changes in currency exchange rates, orders increased 27%, or $7.2 million, from the same period in the prior year. We believe this increase is an outcome of the global economic recovery combined with our increased focus on market opportunities and product innovation. Ending backlog at November 30, 2010 of $50.0 million was 31% higher than at the end of the prior year.

Earnings Before Interest and Income Taxes (EBIT)

Consolidated EBIT for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 was $24.2 million, an increase of $14.5 million from the first quarter of fiscal 2010, primarily due to increased sales volume described above in all our segments along with an improved product mix, especially in our Fluid Management segment.

The Fluid Management segment had EBIT of $28.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared with $16.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of $11.4 million, or 68%. This increase in fiscal 2011 is primarily due to the higher sales volume described above and a favorable product mix.

The Process Solutions segment had EBIT of $1.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011, and an EBIT loss of $1.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of $2.8 million, mainly due to higher sales activity in fiscal 2011.

The Romaco segment had EBIT of $0.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and an EBIT loss of $0.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The marginal improvement in EBIT in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 over the comparable period in the prior year resulted from higher sales volume in fiscal 2011.

Corporate costs were $0.6 million higher in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with the same period in fiscal 2010 primarily due to T-3 transaction costs and higher costs associated with employee benefits related to improved performance in fiscal 2011.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 37.7% for the first quarter of fiscal 2011 and 35.1% for the first quarter of fiscal 2010. The first quarter fiscal 2011 rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate and the prior year rate due to net operating losses in certain tax jurisdictions for which no tax benefit was recorded.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating Activities

In the first quarter of fiscal 2011, our cash outflow from operating activities was $2.5 million, compared with a cash inflow of $11.3 million in the same period of the prior year. This decrease occurred, despite higher net income, as a result of changes in our working capital, primarily due to higher inventory to support our increased backlog in fiscal 2011 and higher accounts receivable consistent with increased sales in fiscal 2011 relative to the prior year.

We expect our available cash, fiscal 2011 operating cash flow and amounts available under our credit agreement to be adequate to fund fiscal 2011 operating needs, shareholder dividends, capital expenditures, additional share repurchases, if any, and the potential acquisition of T-3.

Investing Activities

Our financial condition remains strong at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011, with resources available for reinvestment in existing businesses and strategic acquisitions. Our capital expenditures were $3.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2011 compared with $2.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. Our capital expenditures in fiscal 2011 were primarily due to our cost reduction and sales growth initiatives.

Financing Activities

On October 27, 2008, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 3.0 million of our currently outstanding common shares. Prior to fiscal 2010, we acquired approximately 2.0 million of our outstanding common shares for $39.1 million under the repurchase program. There were no shares repurchased under the program in fiscal 2010 or in the three month period ended November 30, 2010.

Credit Agreement

Our Bank Credit Agreement (“Agreement”) provides that we may borrow on a revolving credit basis up to a maximum of $150.0 million and includes a $100.0 million expansion feature. All outstanding amounts under the Agreement are due and payable on December 19, 2011. Interest is variable based upon formulas tied to LIBOR or an alternative base rate defined in the Agreement, at our option, and is payable quarterly. Indebtedness under the Agreement and the Senior Notes is unsecured, except for the pledge of the stock of our U.S. subsidiaries and approximately two-thirds of the stock of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries. While no amounts are outstanding under the Agreement at November 30, 2010, we have $33.8 million of standby letters of credit outstanding at November 30, 2010. These standby letters of credit are used as security for advance payments received from customers, and for future payments to our vendors and reduce the amount we may borrow under the Agreement. Accordingly, under the Agreement we have $116.2 million of unused borrowing capacity.

Six banks participate in our revolving credit agreement. We are not dependent on any single bank for our financing needs.

From available cash balances, we repaid the remaining $30.0 million of Senior Notes on the May 3, 2010 maturity date.

The Agreement contains certain restrictive covenants including limitations on indebtedness, acquisitions, asset sales, sales and lease backs, and cash dividends as well as financial covenants relating to interest coverage, leverage and net worth. As of November 30, 2010, we are in compliance with these covenants.

On October 6, 2010, we obtained the required waiver from the parties to the Agreement regarding any event of default that may occur under the Agreement arising solely as a result of the approval of the merger with T-3 by either the Board of Directors or the shareholders of R&M.

Following is information regarding our long-term contractual obligations and other commitments outstanding as of November 30, 2010:

		Payments Due by Period
										Two to				Four to
Long-term contractual						One year				three				five				After five
obligations		Total				or less				years				years				years
		(In thousands)
Long-term debt		$	238			$	140			$	98			$	—			$	—
Operating leases (1)			15,000				5,000				6,000				3,000				1,000
Total contractual cash obligations		$	15,238			$	5,140			$	6,098			$	3,000			$	1,000

Unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, in the amount of $4.4 million as of November 30, 2010, have been excluded from the table because we are unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate of the timing of the future payments. The only other commercial commitments outstanding were standby letters of credit of $33.8 million, which are substantially due within one year.

Critical Accounting Policies

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we follow accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which in many cases require us to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported. Many of these policies are straightforward. There are, however, some policies that are critical because they are important in determining the financial condition and results of operations and some may involve management judgments due to the sensitivity of the methods, assumptions and estimates necessary in determining the related income statement, asset and/or liability amounts. These policies are described under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2010. There have been no material changes in the accounting policies followed by us during fiscal 2011.

Safe Harbor Statement

In addition to historical information, this report contains forward-looking statements identified by use of words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” and similar expressions. These statements reflect management’s current expectations and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those stated. The most significant of these risks and uncertainties are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2010, the joint proxy statement/prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 29, 2010, and other reports filed from time to time with the SEC and include, but are not limited to: the failure of the shareholders of R&M or the stockholders of T-3 to approve the merger; potential uncertainties regarding market acceptance of the combined company; competitive responses to the proposed merger; costs and difficulties related to integration of T-3’s businesses and operations; the inability to or delay in obtaining cost savings and synergies from the merger; inability to retain key personnel; changes in the demand for or price of oil and/or natural gas; a significant decline in capital expenditures within the markets served by the Company; the ability to realize the benefits of restructuring programs; increases in competition; changes in the availability and cost of raw materials; foreign exchange rate fluctuations as well as economic or political instability in international markets and performance in hyperinflationary environments, such as Venezuela; work stoppages related to union negotiations; customer order cancellations; the possibility of product liability lawsuits that could harm our businesses; events or circumstances which result in an impairment of, or valuation against, assets; the potential impact of U.S. and foreign legislation, government regulations, and other governmental action, including those relating to export and import of products and materials, and changes in the interpretation and application of such laws and regulations; the outcome of audit, compliance, administrative or investigatory reviews; proposed changes in U.S. tax law which could impact our future tax expense and cash flow and decline in the market value of our pension plans’ investment portfolios. Except as otherwise required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In our normal operations we have market risk exposure to foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. There has been no significant change in our market risk exposure with respect to these items during the quarter ended November 30, 2010. For additional information see “Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk” at Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2010.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(A) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (“Disclosure Controls”) as of November 30, 2010. Disclosure Controls are controls and procedures designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules and forms. Disclosure Controls are also designed to reasonably assure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our quarterly evaluation of Disclosure Controls includes an evaluation of some components of our internal control over financial reporting, and internal control over financial reporting is also separately evaluated on an annual basis.

Based on this evaluation, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of November 30, 2010.

(B) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II—Other Information

Item 1A. Risk Factors

For information regarding factors that could affect the Company’s operations, financial condition and liquidity, see the risk factors discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2010. There has been no material change in the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2010, other than those set forth below.

Risks Related to Our Pending Merger with T-3 Energy Services, Inc. (“T-3”)

The exchange ratio is fixed and will not be adjusted in the event of any change in either R&M’s or T-3’s stock price.

Upon closing of the merger, each share of T-3 common stock will be converted into the right to receive 0.894 common shares of R&M, plus $7.95 in cash, without interest. This exchange ratio is fixed in the Merger Agreement and will not be adjusted for changes in the market price of either R&M common shares or T-3 common stock.

The price of R&M common shares at the closing of the merger may vary from the price on the date the Merger Agreement was executed and on the date of the special meetings of R&M and T-3. As a result, the market value represented by the exchange ratio will also vary. This market value will determine goodwill to be recorded in the transaction that could be subject to future goodwill impairment testing. Any goodwill impairment will impact our future operating results.

Failure to complete the merger with T-3 or a significant delay in the completion of the merger could negatively impact our share price and our future business and financial results.

Completion of the merger is subject to a number of conditions beyond our control that may prevent, delay or otherwise materially adversely affect its completion, including approvals of our shareholders and the stockholders of T-3. If the merger is delayed or is not completed, our ongoing business may be adversely affected. Additionally, if the merger is not completed, we may be required to pay to T-3 a termination fee of $24 million under certain circumstances. Each party will also have to pay certain costs relating to the merger, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor, filing, printing and mailing fees. Any of the foregoing, or other risks arising in connection with the failure of the merger, including the diversion of management

attention from pursuing other opportunities during the pendency of the merger, may have an adverse effect on our business, financial results and share price.

The pendency of the merger with T-3 could adversely affect our business and operations and the business and operations of T-3.

In connection with the pending merger, each company will face additional uncertainties and restrictions on the manner in which it operates its business, including, among other things, that:

	•		Some customers of R&M and T-3 may delay or defer decisions, which could negatively impact revenues, earnings and cash flows of R&M and T-3, regardless of whether the merger is completed;
	•		Current and prospective employees of R&M and T-3 may experience uncertainty about their future roles with R&M following the merger, which may materially and adversely affect the ability of each of R&M and T-3 to attract and retain key personnel;
	•		The operations of R&M and T-3, respectively, will be restricted by the terms of the Merger Agreement, which may cause either party to forego otherwise beneficial business opportunities; and
	•		The attention of management and other company resources of R&M and T-3 may be focused on the merger instead of on pursuing other opportunities beneficial to the R&M shareholders or the T-3 stockholders, as applicable.

If lawsuits are filed against us and T-3 challenging the merger and an adverse ruling is received, the merger may not be completed.

One of the conditions to the closing of the merger is that no judgment, injunction (whether preliminary, temporary or permanent) or other legal restraint or prohibition shall be in effect that prevents the completion of the merger. As such, if litigation is filed and an injunction prohibiting the defendants from completing the merger is obtained, then such injunction may prevent the merger from becoming effective, or from becoming effective within the expected time frame.

The failure to integrate successfully the business of T-3 in the expected time frame would adversely affect the combined company’s future results post-merger.

The success of the merger will depend, in large part, on the ability of the combined company to realize the anticipated benefits, including cost savings, from combining our business with T-3’s business. To realize these anticipated benefits, our business and T-3’s business must be successfully integrated. This integration will be complex and time-consuming. The failure to integrate successfully and to manage successfully the challenges presented by the integration process may result in the combined company not achieving the anticipated benefits of the merger, which could have a negative impact on the shareholders of the combined company following the merger. Potential difficulties that may be encountered in the integration process include the following:

	•		The inability to successfully integrate the businesses of R&M and T-3 in a manner that permits the combined company to achieve the cost savings anticipated to result from the merger;
	•		Lost sales and customers as a result of customers of either of the two companies deciding not to do business with the combined company;
	•		Complexities associated with managing the larger, more complex, combined business;
	•		Integrating personnel from the two companies while maintaining focus on providing consistent, high quality products;
	•		Potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen expenses, delays or regulatory conditions associated with the merger; and
	•		Performance shortfalls at one or both of the companies as a result of the diversion of management’s attention caused by completing the merger and integrating the companies’ operations.

Our future results will suffer if we do not effectively manage our expanded operations following the merger.

Following the merger, the size of our business will increase dramatically. Our future success depends, in part, upon our ability to manage this expanded business, which will pose substantial challenges for management, including challenges related to the management and monitoring of new operations and associated increased costs and complexity. We cannot assure you that we will be successful or that we will realize the expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements and other benefits currently anticipated from the merger.

We expect to incur substantial expenses related to the merger and the integration of T-3.

We expect to incur substantial expenses in connection with the merger and the integration of T-3. There are a large number of processes, policies, procedures, operations, technologies and systems that must be integrated, including purchasing, accounting and finance, sales, billing, payroll, manufacturing, marketing and benefits. While we have assumed that a certain level of expenses would be incurred, there are many factors beyond our control that could affect the total amount or the timing of the integration expenses. Moreover, many of the expenses that will be incurred are, by their nature, difficult to estimate accurately. These expenses could, particularly in the near term, exceed the savings that we expect to achieve from the elimination of duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale and cost savings. These integration expenses likely will result in us taking significant charges against earnings following the completion of the merger, and the amount and timing of such charges are uncertain at present.

Our ability to finance the ongoing cash needs of the combined company is not guaranteed.

We plan to fund the merger transaction expenses and the cash needs of the combined company with available cash of the combined company and proceeds (if any) that we obtain from bank borrowings or capital markets issuances. If these sources of cash are unavailable, unattractive or inadequate, we may be forced to raise funds in alternative manners, which may be more costly or unavailable. Completion of the merger is not conditioned on completing any financing transactions.
