JOY GLOBAL INC.
CONDENSED NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1.
Description of Business
Joy Global Inc. (the "Company," "we" and "us") is a leading manufacturer and servicer of high productivity mining equipment for the extraction of metals and minerals. We manufacture and market original equipment and parts and perform services for both underground and surface mining, as well as certain industrial applications. Our equipment is used in major mining regions throughout the world to mine coal, copper, iron ore, oil sands, gold and other minerals. We operate in two business segments: Underground Mining Machinery ("Underground") and Surface Mining Equipment ("Surface"). We are a major manufacturer of underground mining machinery for the extraction of coal and other bedded minerals. We are also a major producer of surface mining equipment for the extraction of copper, coal and other minerals and ores. We offer comprehensive direct service, which includes our smart service offerings, near major mining regions worldwide and provide extensive operational support for many types of equipment used in mining. Our principal manufacturing facilities are located in the United States, including facilities in Alabama, Pennsylvania, Texas and Wisconsin, and internationally, including facilities in Australia, Canada, China, South Africa and the United Kingdom.

2.
Basis of Presentation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited and are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. In our opinion, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation on a going concern basis of the results of operations, cash flows and financial position for all periods presented have been made. All such adjustments made are of a normal recurring nature. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Ultimate realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the future could differ from those estimates.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

3.
Acquisitions
Acquisition of Mining Technologies International Inc.
On May 30, 2014, we closed on the purchase of certain assets of Mining Technologies International Inc. ("MTI") for $44.4 million dollars. MTI is a Canadian manufacturer of underground hard rock mining equipment serving the North American markets and a world leading supplier of raise bore drilling consumables. We acquired substantially all of the assets associated with MTI’s hard rock drilling, loaders, dump trucks, shaft sinking and raise bore product lines. MTI's results of operations have been included in the accompanying financial statements as part of the Underground segment from the acquisition date forward.
In connection with the acquisition, we recorded goodwill of approximately $0.3 million and intangible assets of approximately $9.9 million. The intangible assets are primarily comprised of customer relationships and designs and drawings, which are being amortized over their respective estimated useful lives.

5. Warranties
We provide for the estimated costs that may be incurred under product warranties to remedy deficiencies of quality or performance of our products. Warranty costs are accrued at the time revenue is recognized. These product warranties extend over either a specified period of time, units of production or machine hours depending on the product subject to the warranty. We accrue a provision for estimated future warranty costs based on the historical relationship of warranty costs to sales. We periodically review the adequacy of the accrual for product warranties and adjust the warranty percentage and accrued warranty reserve for actual experience as necessary.
The following table reconciles the changes in the product warranty reserve:

Borrowings and Credit Facilities
On July 29, 2014, we entered into a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility that matures on July 29, 2019 (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"). Under the Credit Agreement, we also may request an increase of up to $250.0 million of additional aggregate revolving commitments, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement simultaneously replaced the $1.0 billion revolving credit agreement dated as of October 12, 2012 (the "Prior Credit Agreement"), that was scheduled to expire on November 12, 2017. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, we pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.09% to 0.30% on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility based on our credit rating. Letters of credit issued under applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement represent an unfunded utilization of the Credit Agreement for purposes of calculating the periodic commitment fee due. Eurodollar rate loans bear interest for a period from the applicable borrowing date until a date one week or one, two, three or six months thereafter, as selected by the Company, at the corresponding Eurodollar rate plus a margin of 1.0% to 2.0% depending on the Company's credit rating. Base rate loans bear interest from the applicable borrowing date at a rate equal to (i) the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced by the administrative agent as its "prime rate," or (c) a daily rate equal to the one-month Eurodollar rate plus 1.0%, plus (ii) a margin that varies according to the Company's credit rating. Swing line loans bear interest at either the base rate described above or the daily floating Eurodollar rate plus the applicable margin, as selected by the Company. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by each of our current and future material domestic subsidiaries and requires the maintenance of certain financial covenants, including leverage and interest coverage ratios. The Credit Agreement also restricts payment of dividends or other returns of capital to shareholders if we are not in compliance with the financial covenants in the agreement. As of May 1, 2015, we were in compliance with all financial covenants of the Credit Agreement and had no restrictions on the payment of dividends or other returns of capital to shareholders.
As of May 1, 2015, there were no direct borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Total interest expense recognized for direct borrowings under the Credit Agreement for the quarters May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014 is $0.2 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively. For the six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, total interest expense recognized for direct borrowings under the Credit Agreement was $0.4 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively. Outstanding standby letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement, which count toward the $1.0 billion credit limit, totaled $155.6 million. As of May 1, 2015, there was $844.4 million available for borrowings under the Credit Agreement.
On July 29, 2014, we also entered into a term loan agreement which matures July 29, 2019 and provides for a commitment of up to $375.0 million (as amended, the "Term Loan"). The Term Loan replaced our prior term loan, dated as of June 16, 2011 (the "Prior Term Loan"). The Prior Term Loan had been scheduled to mature on July 16, 2016 and provided an initial commitment of $500.0 million, which had been drawn in full in conjunction with our fiscal 2011 acquisition of LeTourneau Technologies, Inc. and had been amortized to $375.0 million at the date that we entered into the Term Loan. We utilized the $375.0 million commitment under the Term Loan to repay the balance outstanding under the Prior Term Loan. The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments beginning in fiscal 2016 and contains terms and conditions that are the same as the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. The Term Loan is guaranteed by each of our current and future material domestic subsidiaries and requires the maintenance of certain financial covenants, including leverage and interest coverage ratios. As of May 1, 2015, we were in compliance with all financial covenants of the Term Loan.

8


On October 12, 2011, we issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Notes due in 2021 (the "2021 Notes") at a discount of $4.2 million in an offering that was registered under the Securities Act. Interest on the 2021 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on October 15 and April 15 of each year, and the 2021 Notes are guaranteed by each of our current and future material domestic subsidiaries. At our option, we may redeem some or all of the 2021 Notes at a redemption price of the greater of 100% of the principal amount of the 2021 Notes to be redeemed or the sum of the present values of the principal amounts and the remaining scheduled interest payments using a discount rate equal to the sum of a treasury rate of a comparable treasury issue plus 0.5%.
In November 2006, we issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.0% Senior Notes due 2016 and $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2036 (the "2016 Notes" and "2036 Notes," respectively). Interest on the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, and the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes are guaranteed by each of our current and future material domestic subsidiaries. The 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes were issued in a private placement under an exemption from registration provided by the Securities Act. In the second quarter of fiscal 2007, the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes were exchanged for substantially identical notes in an exchange that was registered under the Securities Act. At our option, we may redeem some or all of the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes at a redemption price of the greater of 100% of the principal amount of the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes to be redeemed or the sum of the present values of the principal amounts and the remaining scheduled interest payments using a discount rate equal to the sum of a treasury rate of a comparable treasury issue plus 0.3% for the 2016 Notes and 0.375% for the 2036 Notes.

Shareholders' Equity
In August 2013, our Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $1.0 billion in shares of our common stock until August 2016. Under the program, the Company may repurchase shares in the open market in accordance with applicable SEC rules and regulations. During the quarter ended May 1, 2015, we did not repurchase any shares of common stock. During the quarter ended May 2, 2014, we purchased 137,812 shares of common stock for approximately $7.5 million. During the six months ended May 1, 2015, we purchased 954,580 shares of common stock for approximately $50.0 million. During the six months ended May 2, 2014, we purchased 2,396,710 shares of common stock for approximately $129.5 million. Since its inception, the Company has repurchased 9,771,605 shares of common stock under the program for approximately $533.4 million, leaving $466.6 million available under the program.

9.
Share-Based Compensation
Total share-based compensation expense recognized for the quarters ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014 is $8.4 million and $7.1 million, respectively. Total share-based compensation expense recognized for the six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014 was $16.0 million and $13.2 million, respectively. The total share-based compensation expense is reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows in operating activities as an add back to net income.
The corresponding deferred tax asset recognized related to the share-based compensation is $2.2 million and $1.6 million for the quarters ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, respectively. The corresponding deferred tax asset recognized related to the share-based compensation expense was $4.1 million and $3.1 million for the six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, respectively.

10.
Restructuring Charges
During fiscal 2015, in response to the adverse market conditions, the Company has made decisions to reduce operations and administrative costs. This included entering into severance and termination agreements in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 in order to better align the Company's overall cost structure with anticipated levels of future demand. These activities are expected to be completed by the end of fiscal 2015. Additional restructuring charges are expected in fiscal 2015 as the Company continues to optimize its manufacturing footprint.
The Company incurred some immaterial restructuring costs in fiscal 2014. These costs related to decisions that preceded the fiscal 2015 restructuring plan and are therefore not considered to be part of such plan.
Restructuring charges in fiscal 2015 consisted of employee severance and termination costs. The following table summarizes the total expected costs and the amounts incurred by segment:

The actuarial loss (gain) arises from differences in estimates and actual experiences for certain assumptions, including changes in the discount rate and expected return on assets. For the six months ended May 1, 2015, we contributed $11.2 million to our defined benefit employee pension plans, and we expect contributions to be less than $15.0 million for the full fiscal year.
In conjunction with a UK law change, we recorded a non-cash pension settlement charge in the current quarter of $12.9 million as a result of the decision of certain individuals to transfer their benefit out of the Company's defined benefit pension plan to a defined contribution plan.

12.
Derivatives
We are exposed to certain foreign currency risks in the normal course of our global business operations. We enter into derivative contracts that are foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the risks of certain identified and anticipated transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the respective operating unit. The types of risks hedged are those arising from the variability of future earnings and cash flows caused by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. These contracts are for forecasted transactions and committed receivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies and are not entered into for speculative purposes. Consequently, any market-related losses on the forward contract would be offset by changes in the value of the hedged item, and, as a result, we are generally not exposed to net market risk associated with these instruments.
Each derivative is classified as either a cash flow hedge, a fair value hedge or an undesignated instrument. All derivatives are recorded at fair value on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets under the heading Other current assets or under the heading Other accrued liabilities, as appropriate. Cash flows from fair value and cash flow hedges are classified within the same category as the item being hedged on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Cash flows from undesignated derivative instruments are included in operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
For derivative contracts that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss of the derivative contract is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income, net of tax. This amount is reclassified into the income statement on the line associated with the underlying transaction for the periods in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. The amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income for existing cash flow hedges are generally expected to be reclassified into earnings within one year, and all of the existing hedges will be reclassified into earnings by October 2017. Ineffectiveness related to these derivative contracts was recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as a loss of less than $0.1 million and a gain of less than $0.1 million for the quarters ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, respectively.

12


Ineffectiveness related to these derivative contracts was also recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as a loss of less than $0.1 million and a gain of less than $0.1 million for the six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, respectively.
For derivative contracts that are designated and qualify as a fair value hedge, the gain or loss is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income under the heading Cost of sales. For the quarters ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, we recorded a gain of $0.2 million and and a loss of $0.5 million, respectively, related to fair value hedges, which were offset by foreign exchange fluctuations of the underlying hedged item. For the six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, we recorded a loss of $0.6 million and a loss of $0.7 million, respectively, related to fair value hedges, which were offset by foreign exchange fluctuations of the underlying hedged item.
For derivative contracts entered into in order to hedge revaluation of net balance sheet exposures in non-functional currency that are not designated as a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss is recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income under the heading Cost of sales. For the quarters ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, we recorded a gain of $1.2 million and a loss of $0.4 million, respectively, related to undesignated hedges, which were offset by foreign exchange fluctuations. For the six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, we recorded gains of $8.0 million and $2.6 million, respectively, related to undesignated hedges, which were offset by foreign exchange fluctuations.

We are exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to the forward contracts. The terms of the forward contract determine the amount and timing of amounts to be exchanged, and the contract is generally subject to credit risk only when it has a positive fair value.

13.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share, except that the weighted average number of shares outstanding is increased to include additional shares from the assumed exercise of stock options, performance shares and restricted stock units, if dilutive.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Options to purchase a weighted average of 2.7 million and 2.1 million shares were excluded from the calculations of diluted earnings per share for the quarters ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, respectively, as the effect would have been antidilutive. Options to purchase a weighted average of 2.5 million and 1.8 million shares were excluded from the calculations of diluted earnings per share for the six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, respectively, as the effect would have been antidilutive.

14.
Fair Value Measurements
GAAP establishes a three level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes information used in developing assumptions when pricing an asset or liability as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments;
Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable for the instrument either directly or indirectly or quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; and
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the instrument where there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

13


GAAP requires the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value and disclose the fair value of long-term obligations recorded at cost as of May 1, 2015 and October 31, 2014. As of May 1, 2015 and October 31, 2014, we did not have any Level 3 assets or liabilities.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:
Cash equivalents: The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair value based on the short-term nature of these instruments.
Derivatives: The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is based on a valuation model that discounts cash flows resulting from the differential between the contract price and the market-based forward rate.
Term Loan: The fair value of the Term Loan is estimated using discounted cash flows and market conditions.
Senior Notes: The fair market value of the senior notes is estimated based on market quotations of similar instruments at the respective period end.

Contingent Liabilities
We establish reserves based on our assessment of contingencies related to legal claims asserted against us, as required by GAAP. Developments during the course of legal proceedings may affect our assessments and estimates of our contingencies,

14


which in turn may require us to record or change the amount of a reserve, or make a payment that is different than the amount that we have reserved. In addition, as a normal part of operations, our subsidiaries undertake contractual obligations, warranties and guarantees in connection with the sale of products or services. Although the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty and favorable or unfavorable resolutions may affect the results of operations on a quarter-to-quarter basis, we believe that the outcome of such legal and other matters will not have a materially adverse effect on our future consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
We and our subsidiaries are involved in various unresolved legal matters that arise in the normal course of operations, the most prevalent of which relate to product liability (including approximately 3,400 asbestos and silica-related cases), employment and commercial matters. We and our subsidiaries also become involved from time to time in proceedings relating to environmental matters and litigation arising outside the ordinary course of business.
As of May 1, 2015, we were contingently liable to banks, financial institutions and others for approximately $188.0 million for outstanding standby letters of credit, surety bonds and bank guarantees to secure the performance of sales contracts and other third party provided guarantees in the ordinary course of business. Of the $188.0 million, approximately $27.7 million relates to surety bonds and $4.7 million relates to outstanding letters of credit or other guarantees issued by non-U.S. banks for non-U.S. subsidiaries under locally provided credit facilities.
In addition, the SEC’s Division of Enforcement is conducting an investigation concerning our 2012 acquisition of International Mining Machinery Holdings Limited and related accounting matters. We are cooperating with the SEC regarding this investigation, which is ongoing. While it is not possible to predict the timing or outcome of the SEC inquiry, we currently believe that this matter will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's future consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

16.
Segment Information
We operate in two reportable segments: Underground and Surface. Crushing and conveying operating results related to surface applications are reported as part of the Surface segment, while total crushing and conveying operating results are included in the Underground segment. Eliminations primarily consist of the surface applications of crushing and conveying included in both operating segments. The results of operations for MTI have been included in the Underground segment from the acquisition date forward.
Operating income (loss) of segments does not include interest income and expense, corporate administration expenses and the provision for income taxes.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 provides a single principles-based, five-step model to be applied to all contracts with customers. The five steps are to (i) identify the contracts with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contact, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. Revenue will be recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration expected in exchange for those goods or services. In April 2015, the FASB tentatively agreed to delay the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for one year and to permit early adoption by entities as of the original effective dates. Considering the one year deferral, ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company beginning on October 27, 2018 and the standard allows for either full retrospective adoption or modified retrospective adoption. The Company is continuing to evaluate the impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations and the presentation of our financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which changes the presentation of debt issuance costs in financial statements. Under the ASU, an entity presents such costs in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the related debt liability rather than as an asset. Amortization of the costs is reported as interest expense. The guidance in the ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is allowed for all entities for financial statements that have not been previously issued and entities would apply the new guidance retrospectively to all prior periods. ASU 2015-03 will be effective for the Company beginning on October 29, 2016. This guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial condition, results of operations or presentation of our financial statements.
In April 2015, the FASB also issued ASU 2015-04, Practical Expedient for the Measurement Date of an Employer's Defined Benefit Obligation and Plan Assets, which permits an employer whose fiscal year-end does not coincide with a calendar month end the ability to elect to measure its defined benefit retirement obligations and related plan assets as of the month end that is closest to its fiscal year-end. If elected, this accounting policy is applied consistently on a prospective basis for all plans, with related disclosure of the alternative measurement date used. The ASU is effective for the Company beginning on October 29, 2016, with early adoption permitted. This guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial condition, results of operations or presentation of our financial statements.

Subsidiary Guarantors for 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes
The following tables present condensed consolidated financial information as of May 1, 2015 and October 31, 2014 and for the quarters and six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014 for: (a) the Company; (b) on a combined basis, the guarantors of the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes issued in November 2006, which include the significant domestic operations of Joy Global Underground Mining LLC, Joy Global Surface Mining Inc, N.E.S. Investment Co., Joy Global Conveyors Inc., Joy Global

16


Longview Operations LLC and certain immaterial wholly owned subsidiaries of Joy Global Longview Operations LLC (the "Subsidiary Guarantors"); and (c) on a combined basis, the non-guarantors, which include all of our foreign subsidiaries and a number of small domestic subsidiaries (the "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries").
The borrowings are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several unsecured basis by the Subsidiary Guarantors, which are direct and indirect 100% owned subsidiaries of the Company. We conduct all of our business and derive essentially all of our income from our subsidiaries. Therefore, our ability to make payments on the obligations is dependent on the earnings and distribution of funds from our subsidiaries. There are no restrictions on the ability of any of our domestic subsidiaries to transfer funds to the parent company. Separate financial statements of the Subsidiary Guarantors are not presented because we believe such separate statements or disclosures would not be useful to investors.

Subsidiary Guarantors for Credit Agreement, Term Loan and 2021 Notes
The following tables present condensed consolidated financial information as of May 1, 2015 and October 31, 2014 and for the quarters and six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014 for: (a) the Company; (b) on a combined basis, the guarantors of the Credit Agreement, the Term Loan and the 2021 Notes issued in October 2011, which include Joy Global Underground Mining LLC, Joy Global Surface Mining Inc, N.E.S. Investment Co., Joy Global Conveyors Inc. and Joy Global Longview Operations LLC (the "Supplemental Subsidiary Guarantors"); and (c) on a combined basis, the non-guarantors, which include all of our foreign subsidiaries and a number of small domestic subsidiaries ("Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries").
The borrowings are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several unsecured basis by the Supplemental Subsidiary Guarantors, which are direct and indirect 100% owned subsidiaries of the Company. We conduct all of our business and derive essentially all of our income from our subsidiaries. Therefore, our ability to make payments on the obligations is dependent on the earnings and distribution of funds from our subsidiaries. There are no restrictions on the ability of any of our domestic subsidiaries to transfer funds to the parent company. Separate financial statements of the Supplemental Subsidiary Guarantors are not presented because we believe such separate statements or disclosures would not be useful to investors.

Subsequent Events
On May 19, 2015, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.20 per outstanding share of common stock. The dividend will be paid on June 18, 2015 to all shareholders of record at the close of business on June 4, 2015.
On June 1, 2015, we completed the acquisition of Montabert S.A.S. ("Montabert") for approximately €110.0 million, subject to a working capital adjustment. This acquisition was partially funded through funds borrowed under our revolving Credit Agreement, with the remainder funded from our cash on hand. Montabert specializes in the design, production and distribution of high quality hydraulic rock breakers, pneumatic equipment, drilling attachments, drifters and related parts and tools. This acquisition expands the Company's product and service capabilities for hard rock mining, tunneling and rock excavation, further diversifying our commodity and end market exposures. Montabert's results of operations will be included as part of the Underground segment from the date of the acquisition forward.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Overview
Joy Global Inc. is a leading manufacturer and servicer of high productivity mining equipment for the extraction of metals and minerals. We manufacture and market original equipment and parts and perform services for both underground and surface mining, as well as certain industrial applications. Our equipment is used in major mining regions throughout the world to mine coal, copper, iron ore, oil sands, gold and other minerals. We operate in two business segments: Underground and Surface. We are a major manufacturer of underground mining machinery for the extraction of coal and other bedded minerals. We are also a major producer of surface mining equipment for the extraction of copper, coal and other minerals and ores. We offer comprehensive direct service, which includes our smart service offerings, near major mining regions worldwide and provide extensive operational support for many types of equipment used in mining. Our principal manufacturing facilities are located in the United States, including facilities in Alabama, Pennsylvania, Texas and Wisconsin, and internationally, including facilities in Australia, Canada, China, South Africa and the United Kingdom.
Operating Results
Quarter Ended May 1, 2015 Compared With Quarter Ended May 2, 2014
Net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 were $810.5 million, compared to $929.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in net sales of $119.2 million, or 13%, in the current year second quarter reflected a decrease in original equipment sales of $58.1 million, or 21%, and a decrease in service sales of $61.1 million, or 9%. Original equipment sales decreased in all regions except North America and Africa. The decrease in original equipment sales was led by Australia and China, which decreased by $38.3 million and $17.4 million, respectively. Service sales decreased in all regions except Latin America, which was flat. The decrease in service sales was led by Australia, which decreased by $36.7 million on lower demand for machine rebuilds. Compared to the prior year second quarter, net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 included a $30.3 million unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation, due primarily to the decline in the value of the Australian dollar and South African rand relative to the U.S. dollar.
Operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $70.3 million, or 8.7% of net sales, compared to $125.7 million, or 13.5% of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in operating income of $55.4 million, or 44%, in the current year second quarter was primarily due to margins on lower sales volumes of $41.8 million, a less favorable product mix of $8.7 million and higher product development, selling, and administrative expenses of $7.2 million. The overall increase in product development, selling, and administrative expenses included a $6.4 million increase in current quarter restructuring costs and $12.9 million related to a non-cash pension settlement charge in Eurasia, which were partially offset by savings from the company's cost reduction programs and by lower incentive based compensation expense. During the quarter, we also had higher manufacturing cost absorption of $4.7 million, which partially offset the declines outlined above. Compared to the prior year second quarter, operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 included a $1.6 million unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation.
Net income was $38.7 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, compared to $74.0 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, in the second quarter of fiscal 2014.
Bookings in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 were $744.8 million, compared to $1.0 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in bookings of $302.8 million, or 29%, in the current year second quarter reflected a decrease in original equipment bookings of $200.8 million, or 57%, and a decrease in service orders of $102.1 million, or 15%. Original equipment bookings decreased in all regions. The decrease in original equipment bookings was led by North America and China, which decreased $109.1 million and $35.1 million, respectively. Original equipment bookings declined in part because the prior year second quarter included a multiple shovel order for a greenfield expansion project in the Canadian oil sands that was not repeated in the current year. Service bookings decreased in all regions except Latin America, Australia and China. The decrease in service bookings was led by North America and Africa, which decreased by $73.2 million and $28.0 million, respectively, on lower rebuild activity. Compared to the prior year second quarter, bookings in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 included a $32.9 million unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation, due primarily to the decline in the value of the Australian dollar and South African rand relative to the U.S. dollar.

Six Months Ended May 1, 2015 Compared With Six Months Ended May 2, 2014
Net sales in the first six months of fiscal 2015 were $1.5 billion, compared to $1.8 billion in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in net sales of $254.6 million, or 14%, in the first six months of the current year reflected a decrease in original equipment sales of $135.8 million, or 25%, and a decrease in service sales of $118.8 million, or 10%. Original equipment sales decreased in all regions. The decrease in original equipment sales was led by Australia, which decreased by $73.2 million, mostly on lower longwall system and conveyor volumes. Service sales decreased in all regions except China, which was flat. The decrease in service sales was led by Australia and Africa, which decreased by $57.3 million and $25.8 million, respectively, on weakened demand for parts and rebuilds. Compared to the first six months of the prior year, net sales in the first six months of fiscal 2015 included a $47.2 million unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation, due primarily to the decline in the value of the Australian dollar and South African rand relative to the U.S. dollar.
Operating income in the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $119.0 million, or 7.9% of net sales, compared to $211.0 million, or 11.9% of net sales, in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in operating income of $92.0 million, or 44%, in the first six months of the current year was primarily due to margins on lower sales volumes of $90.5 million and a less favorable product mix of $18.5 million. These items were partially offset by higher manufacturing cost absorption of $7.9 million, lower period costs (defined as any costs of sales other than those costs associated with selling inventory at standard costs) of $2.0 million, and reduced product development, selling and administrative expenses of $8.2 million. Product development, selling, and administrative expenses include $4.7 million of increased restructuring costs versus the first six months of fiscal 2014 and $12.9 million of non-cash pension settlement charges in Eurasia. These increases were offset by savings from the company's cost reduction programs and by lower incentive based compensation expense. Compared to the first six months of the prior year, operating income in the first six months of fiscal 2015 included a $2.1 million unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation.
Net income was $62.3 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, in the first six months of fiscal 2015, compared to $122.8 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, in the first six months of fiscal 2014.
Bookings in the first six months of fiscal 2015 were $1.4 billion, compared to $1.9 billion in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in bookings of $463.2 million, or 24%, in the first six months of the current year reflected a decrease in original equipment bookings of $274.9 million, or 46%, and a decrease in service orders of $188.3 million, or 14%. Original equipment bookings decreased in all regions except Africa. The decrease in original equipment bookings was led by North America, Latin America, China and Eurasia, which decreased $74.3 million, $65.4 million, $61.4 million and $57.5 million, respectively. Bookings declined from the prior year period in part because the 2014 bookings of the first low seam longwall system and the multiple shovel order for a greenfield expansion project in the Canadian oil sands were not repeated in the current year. Service bookings decreased in all regions except China. The decrease in service bookings was led by North America, which decreased by $105.8 million. Compared to the first six months of the prior year, bookings in the first six months of fiscal 2015 included an $82.6 million unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation, due primarily to the decline in the value of the Australian dollar and South African rand relative to the U.S. dollar.
Market Outlook
While global economic growth improved through the first four months of the calendar year, other economic and commodity indicators painted a mixed picture about the strength of end markets. Strengthening economic activity in the Eurozone was met by first quarter contraction in the U.S. as extreme weather and west coast port closures impacted trade and manufacturing. At the same time, Chinese growth cooled to its lowest levels in the last six years. China has implemented significant monetary stimulus efforts in the form of reductions in both the reserve requirement ratio and lending rates over the last several months. Although a moderate amount of global growth is still expected to support demand for mined commodities, there are several macroeconomic pressures that could increase and materially impact the growth profile.
Concerns around the strength of the global economy in the first quarter contributed to the steep decline in copper prices at the end of January. Since that time, copper prices have recovered significantly as the anticipated Chinese stimulus has helped to drive positive sentiment in the market. Although refined copper markets saw a surplus through February due to weak demand and are expected to remain in surplus this year, prices appear to have stabilized in the near-term as demand is expected to pick-up in the second half of the year. Longer term, the copper project pipeline remains healthy as the expected return to a deficit position in the market is expected to support investment in the industry.
Pressure on U.S. coal markets has increased since February on low natural gas prices, combined with natural gas powered electricity generation growing substantially from a year ago. Along with the increase in governmental regulations taking effect in April, U.S. coal burn has fallen significantly through March and is expected to continue this decline in the remainder of this year. U.S. coal exports have also been challenged as a rising dollar and depressed seaborne prices have resulted in exports trending at

30


their lowest run-rate since June 2011. The combination of these forces is expected to reduce U.S. coal production more than previously expected.
Challenges in the seaborne thermal coal market have increased in the last several months. While further supply rationalization is still needed to balance the market, the strengthening U.S. dollar, along with lower oil prices, has effectively lowered production costs for Australian, Russian and Indonesian producers, slowing the supply adjustment process.
After stabilizing for nearly a year, metalllurgical coal prices have declined precipitously over the last two months. The primary driver has been a weak global steel market where production is down through April. Growth in global steel consumption was recently revised lower for 2015. The decline in Chinese steel production has resulted in a sharp decline in metallurgical coal imports through April. Further exacerbating the oversupplied market has been the significant depreciation in several major producing regions’ currencies which, similar to thermal coal, has slowed the supply adjustment process.
The revised outlook for global steel markets has also impacted seaborne iron ore prices which fell during the second quarter. While prices have rebounded somewhat in recent weeks as signs of supply rationalization have been announced, absent a demand catalyst or a divergence from the expected ramp up in supply over the next two years, prices will likely remain at or near this current level.
While global mining markets attempt to establish a trough, concern over end-user demand for commodities and oversupplied markets still persists. Although the expected medium-term recovery and expansion in the mining market may be closer, the near-term austerity measures and asset consolidation in the mining industry continue to adversely affect the business.
Company Outlook
While we navigate through the downturn of this mining cycle, we remain committed to our growth strategies. Our acquisition of Montabert will further expand our underground hard rock portfolio. We believe that the rock drill and rock breaker product lines are highly differentiated products, complementary to our hard rock mining business. The strong service components accompanied with our existing service footprint provides a competitive advantage for us.
During these tough times, our ability to provide world-class service is more critical than ever as shorter lead-times and greater responsiveness is expected by our customers and will position us to increase our capture rates for service on our installed base of equipment. At the end of the quarter we opened a new service facility in Peru that will allow us to grow our service business by being closer to our customers in the region. We will continue to invest in our global network of service facilities, add new service products and consumables, and expand our market leading position in JoySmartsm services that help our customers sustainably lower their costs.
Notwithstanding the restructuring actions taken in the quarter to reduce our cost position and the acceleration of our manufacturing and service optimization plan, the further step down in our key commodity end markets, in particular with U.S. coal and global copper, has resulted in reduced production forecasts and further deferred maintenance on our installed base of equipment with our customers. As a result, our performance for the year will continue to be constrained.

Underground operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $34.5 million, or 8.1% of net sales, compared to $67.5 million, or 13.0% of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in Underground operating income of $33.0 million, or 49%, in the current year second quarter was primarily due to margins on lower sales volumes of $30.8 million, a less favorable product mix of $7.7 million and higher product development, selling, and administrative costs of $11.3 million, including $1.2 million of increased restructuring activity costs and $12.9 million of non-cash pension settlement charges in Eurasia. These items were partially offset by higher manufacturing cost absorption of $4.8 million and lower period costs of $12.6 million. Compared to the prior year second quarter, Underground operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 included a $1.3 million unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation.

Surface operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $56.6 million, or 13.4% of net sales, compared to $82.6 million, or 18.6% of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in Surface operating income of $26.1 million, or 32%, in the current year second quarter was primarily due to margins on lower sales volumes of $9.7 million, a less favorable product mix of $3.8 million and higher period costs of $13.8 million. These items were partially offset by reduced product development, selling and administrative expenses of $1.9 million, inclusive of $5.0 million of higher restructuring charges. Compared to the prior year second quarter, Surface operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 included a $0.3 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation.
Corporate expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $12.1 million, compared to $14.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in corporate expense of $2.1 million, or 15%, is due to reduced administrative expenses.
Product Development, Selling and Administrative Expense
Product development, selling and administrative expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $161.7 million, or 20.0% of net sales, compared to $154.5 million, or 16.6% of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The increase in product development, selling and administrative expense of $7.2 million, or 5%, was due primarily to increased restructuring costs in the current quarter of $6.4 million and a $12.9 million non-cash pension settlement charge, partially offset by cost savings from the Company's previous restructuring programs and lower incentive based compensation expense. Restructuring activities continued in the quarter to better align our overall cost structure with anticipated levels of future demand.
Net Interest Expense
Net interest expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $13.3 million, compared to $13.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in net interest expense of $0.6 million, or 4%, was primarily due to increased interest rates earned on interest bearing assets.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes in the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $18.3 million, compared to $37.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The effective income tax rate was 32.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, compared to 33.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. Net discrete tax expense of $1.2 million was recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2015, compared to a benefit of $0.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the quarter, excluding discrete items, was primarily attributable to a change in geographical mix of projected earnings.

Underground operating income in the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $72.7 million, or 9.0% of net sales, compared to $130.1 million, or 13.1% of net sales, in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in Underground operating income of $57.4 million, or 44%, in the first six months of the current year was primarily due to margins on lower sales volumes of $62.4 million, a less favorable product mix of $9.2 million and increased product development, selling, and administrative costs of $5.9 million. The increased product development, selling, and administrative expenses include higher restructuring costs of $1.6 million and $12.9 million of non-cash pension settlement charges in Eurasia, partially offset by cost savings from restructuring programs and lower incentive compensation. During the quarter, we also had higher manufacturing cost absorption of $8.0 million and lower period costs of $13.9 million, which partially offset the declines outlined above. Compared to the first six months of the prior year, Underground operating income in the first six months of fiscal 2015 included a $2.3 million unfavorable effect of foreign currency translation.
Surface operating income in the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $85.6 million, or 11.1% of net sales, compared to $128.8 million, or 15.3% of net sales, in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in Surface operating income of $43.2 million, or 34%, in the first six months of the current year was primarily due to margins on lower sales volumes of $30.5 million, a less favorable product mix of $11.2 million and higher period costs of $11.8 million. These items were partially offset by reduced product development, selling and administrative expenses of $9.3 million, inclusive of $3.8 million of increased restructuring costs. Compared to the first six months of the prior year, Surface operating income in the first six months of fiscal 2015 included a $0.2 million favorable impact of foreign currency translation.
Corporate expense in the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $24.2 million, compared to $28.4 million in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in corporate expense of $4.3 million, or 15%, is primarily due to reduced administrative expenses.
Product Development, Selling and Administrative Expense
Product development, selling and administrative expense in the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $299.4 million, or 19.8% of net sales, compared to $307.6 million, or 17.4% of net sales, in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in product development, selling and administrative expense of $8.2 million, or 3%, was due primarily to cost savings from the Company's previous restructuring programs and lower incentive based compensation expense, partially offset by $12.9 million of non-cash pension settlement charges and $4.7 million of incremental charges for restructuring activities undertaken in the current fiscal year. Restructuring activities continued in the first six months of 2015 to better align our overall cost structure with anticipated levels of future demand.
Net Interest Expense
Net interest expense in the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $26.2 million, compared to $27.7 million in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in net interest expense of $1.4 million, or 5%, was primarily due to the reduction in the borrowing spreads and commitment fees as a result of the third quarter fiscal 2014 refinancing, as well as increased interest rates earned on interest bearing assets.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes in the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $30.5 million, compared to $60.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The effective income tax rate was 32.8% in the first six months of fiscal 2015, compared to 33.0%

in the first six months of fiscal 2014. Net discrete tax expense of $1.6 million was recorded in the first six months of fiscal 2015, compared to a benefit of $1.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the period, excluding discrete items, was primarily attributable to a change in geographical mix of projected earnings.

We currently use trade working capital and cash flows from continuing operations as two financial measurements to evaluate the performance of our operations and our ability to meet our financial obligations. We require trade working capital investment because our direct service model requires us to maintain certain inventory levels in order to maximize our customers’ machine availability. This information also provides management with a focus on our receivable terms and collectability efforts and our ability to obtain advance payments on original equipment orders. As part of the continuous improvement of our purchasing and manufacturing processes, we continue to strive for alignment of inventory levels with customer demand and current production schedules.
Cash provided by continuing operating activities during the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $52.8 million, compared to $206.7 million during the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in cash provided by continuing operations was primarily due to lower earnings and an increase in inventories, partially offset by increased advance payments and progress billings.
Cash used by investing activities during the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $35.5 million, compared to $40.2 million during the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in cash used by investing activities was primarily due to a decline in capital expenditures.
Cash used by financing activities during the first six months of fiscal 2015 was $85.5 million, compared to $185.0 million during the first six months of fiscal 2014. The decrease in cash used by financing activities was primarily due to a decrease in share repurchases and a decrease in required repayments made on the Term Loan due to the change in the repayment schedule associated with the debt refinancing that occurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2014.
On February 18, 2015, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.20 per outstanding share of common stock. The dividend was paid on March 18, 2015 to all shareholders of record at the close of business on March 4, 2015. In addition, on May 19, 2015, our Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.20 per outstanding share of common stock. The dividend will be paid on June 18, 2015 to all shareholders of record at the close of business on June 4, 2015.
Retiree Benefits
We sponsor pension plans in the U.S. and in other countries. The significance of the funding requirements of these plans is largely dependent on the value of the plan assets, the investment returns on the plan assets, actuarial assumptions, including discount rates, and the impact of the Pension Protection Act of 2006. For the six months ended May 1, 2015, we contributed $11.2 million to our defined benefit employee pension plans. We expect contributions to our defined benefit pension plans to be less than $15.0 million for the full fiscal year.
In conjunction with a UK law change, we recorded a non-cash pension settlement charge in the current quarter of $12.9 million as a result of the decision of certain individuals to transfer their benefit out of the Company's defined benefit pension plan to a defined contribution plan.

Credit Agreement
On July 29, 2014, we entered into a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility that matures on July 29, 2019. Under the Credit Agreement, we also may request an increase of up to $250.0 million of additional aggregate revolving commitments, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement simultaneously replaced the $1.0 billion revolving credit agreement dated as of October 12, 2012 that was scheduled to expire on November 12, 2017. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, we pay a commitment fee ranging from 0.09% to 0.30% on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility based on our credit rating. Letters of credit issued under applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement represent an unfunded utilization of the Credit Agreement for purposes of calculating the periodic commitment fee due. Eurodollar rate loans bear interest for a period from the applicable borrowing date until a date one week or one, two, three or six months thereafter, as selected by the Company, at the corresponding Eurodollar rate plus a margin of 1.0% to 2.0% depending on the Company's credit rating. Base rate loans bear interest from the applicable borrowing date at a rate equal to (i) the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced by the administrative agent as its "prime rate," or (c) a daily rate equal to the one-month Eurodollar rate plus 1.0%, plus (ii) a margin that varies according to the Company's credit rating. Swing line loans bear interest at either the base rate described above or the daily floating Eurodollar rate plus the applicable margin, as selected by the Company. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by each of our current and future material domestic subsidiaries and requires the maintenance of certain financial covenants, including leverage and interest coverage ratios. The Credit Agreement also restricts payment of dividends or other returns of capital to shareholders if we are not in compliance with the financial covenants in the agreement. As of May 1, 2015, we were in compliance with all financial covenants of the Credit Agreement and had no restrictions on the payment of dividends or other returns of capital to shareholders.
As of May 1, 2015, there were no direct borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Total interest expense recognized for direct borrowings under the Credit Agreement for the quarters ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014 is $0.2 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively. For the six months ended May 1, 2015 and May 2, 2014, total interest expense recognized for direct borrowings under the Credit Agreement was $0.4 million and less than $0.1 million, respectively. Outstanding standby letters of credit issued under the Credit Agreement, which count toward the $1.0 billion credit limit, totaled $155.6 million. As of May 1, 2015, there was $844.4 million available for borrowings under the Credit Agreement.
On July 29, 2014, we also entered into a term loan agreement which matures July 29, 2019 and provides for a commitment of up to $375.0 million. The Term Loan replaced our prior term loan, dated as of June 16, 2011. The Prior Term Loan had been scheduled to mature on July 16, 2016 and provided an initial commitment of $500.0 million, which had been drawn in full in conjunction with our fiscal 2011 acquisition of LeTourneau Technologies, Inc. and had been amortized to $375.0 million at the date that we entered into the Term Loan. We utilized the $375.0 million commitment under the Term Loan to repay the balance outstanding under the Prior Term Loan. The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments beginning in fiscal 2016 and contains terms and conditions that are the same as the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. The Term Loan is guaranteed by each of our current and future material domestic subsidiaries and requires the maintenance of certain financial covenants, including leverage and interest coverage ratios. As of May 1, 2015, we were in compliance with all financial covenants of the Term Loan.
On October 12, 2011, we issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Notes due in 2021 at a discount of $4.2 million in an offering that was registered under the Securities Act. Interest on the 2021 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on October 15 and April 15 of each year, and the 2021 Notes are guaranteed by each of our current and future material domestic subsidiaries. At our option, we may redeem some or all of the 2021 Notes at a redemption price of the greater of 100% of the principal amount of the 2021 Notes to be redeemed or the sum of the present values of the principal amounts and the remaining scheduled interest payments using a discount rate equal to the sum of a treasury rate of a comparable treasury issue plus 0.5%.
In November 2006, we issued $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.0% Senior Notes due 2016 and $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2036. Interest on the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes is paid semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, and the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes are guaranteed by each of our current and future material domestic subsidiaries. The 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes were issued in a private placement under an exemption from registration provided by the Securities Act. In the second quarter of fiscal 2007, the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes were exchanged for substantially identical notes in an exchange that was registered under the Securities Act. At our option, we may redeem some or all of the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes at a redemption price of the greater of 100% of the principal amount of the 2016 Notes and 2036 Notes to be redeemed or the sum of the present values of the principal amounts and the remaining scheduled interest payments using a discount rate equal to the sum of a treasury rate of a comparable treasury issue plus 0.3% for the 2016 Notes and 0.375% for the 2036 Notes.
Stock Repurchase Program
In August 2013, our Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $1.0 billion in shares of our common stock until August 2016. Under the program, the Company may repurchase shares in the open market in accordance with applicable SEC rules and regulations. During the quarter ended May 1, 2015, we did not repurchase any shares of common stock. During

38


the quarter ended May 2, 2014, we purchased 137,812 shares of common stock for approximately $7.5 million. During the six months ended May 1, 2015, we purchased 954,580 shares of common stock for approximately $50.0 million. During the six months ended May 2, 2014, we purchased 2,396,710 shares of common stock for approximately $129.5 million. Since its inception, the Company has repurchased 9,771,605 shares of common stock under the program for approximately $533.4 million, leaving $466.6 million available under the program.
Advance Payments and Progress Billings
As part of the negotiation process associated with original equipment orders, contracts generally require advance payments and progress billings from our customers to support the procurement of inventory and other resources. As of May 1, 2015, advance payments and progress billings were $329.9 million. As orders are shipped or costs are incurred, the advance payments and progress billings are recognized as revenue in the consolidated financial statements.
Financial Condition
We believe our liquidity and capital resources are adequate to meet our projected needs. We had $192.1 million in cash and cash equivalents as of May 1, 2015 and $844.4 million available for borrowings under the Credit Agreement. Requirements for working capital, dividends, pension contributions, capital expenditures, acquisitions, stock repurchases and principal and interest payments on our Term Loan and Senior Notes will be adequately funded by cash on hand and continuing operations, supplemented by short and long term borrowings, as required.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We lease various assets under operating leases. No significant changes to lease commitments have occurred since our year ended October 31, 2014. We have no other off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates, Assumptions and Policies
Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to bad debts, inventory, goodwill and intangible assets, warranty, pension and postretirement benefits and costs, income taxes and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
We believe our accounting policies for revenue recognition, inventories, goodwill and other intangible assets, accrued warranties, pension and postretirement benefits and costs and income taxes are the policies that most frequently require us to make estimates and judgments, and therefore are critical to the understanding of our results of operations. See Item 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2014 for a discussion of these policies. There were no material changes to these policies since our year ended October 31, 2014.

New Accounting Pronouncements
Our new accounting pronouncements are set forth under Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As more fully described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2014, we are exposed to various types of market risks, such as interest rate risk, commodity price risk and foreign currency risk. We monitor our risks on a continuous basis and generally enter into forward foreign currency contracts to minimize our foreign currency exposures. We do not engage in speculation in our derivative strategies. Gains and losses from foreign currency contract activities are offset by changes in the underlying costs of the transactions being hedged. There have been no material changes to our primary market risk exposures or how such risks are managed since our year ended October 31, 2014.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
We have established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known on a timely basis to the officers who certify our financial reports and to other members of senior management and the Board of Directors.
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective (1) in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act and (2) to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) that occurred during our quarter ended May 1, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We and our subsidiaries are involved in various unresolved legal matters that arise in the normal course of operations, the most prevalent of which relate to product liability (including approximately 3,400 asbestos and silica-related cases), employment and commercial matters. We and our subsidiaries also become involved from time to time in proceedings relating to environmental matters and litigation arising outside the ordinary course of business.

SEC Investigation. Since the fourth quarter of 2014, the SEC’s Division of Enforcement has been conducting an investigation concerning our 2012 acquisition of International Mining Machinery Holdings Limited and related accounting matters. This investigation is discussed in Note 15, Contingent Liabilities, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014.

Delaware Chancery Litigation. On November 12, 2014, Ironworkers Local No. 25 Pension Fund (“Plaintiff”) brought suit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (Case No. 10341) against the Company, members of its Board of Directors, and Bank of America Corporation (“Bank of America”), in its capacity as Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and Term Loan. Plaintiff alleges that the Company’s directors breached their fiduciary duties by unjustifiably permitting the Credit Agreement and Term Loan each to contain what Plaintiff calls a “dead hand proxy put” change of control provision, which would provide for the acceleration of amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement in the event that a majority of the board of directors is replaced in a proxy contest. The plaintiff alleged that this provision, which has been present in a number of the Company's prior credit facilities, has a coercive effect on stockholder voting for change on the board of directors and entrenches the Company’s incumbent directors.  The complaint further asserted that Bank of America aided and abetted the defendant directors in their alleged breach of fiduciary duties. As reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended January 30, 2015, the Company and Bank of America executed amendments to the Credit Agreement and Term Loan on January 27, 2015 to remove the "dead hand proxy put" and on the following day the Plaintiff wrote a letter informing the court that the amendments had rendered their claims moot and that they would coordinate with the Company regarding dismissal of the claims and Plaintiff's application for an award of attorneys' fees. The parties reached an agreement with respect to such fees of $0.3 million during the third quarter of 2015 and the court entered a Stipulation and Order dismissing the suit on June 5, 2015, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to this report.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
