BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Subsea Technologies

Subsea Technologies designs and manufactures products and systems and provides services used by oil and gas companies involved in deepwater exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas. The core compentencies of this segment is our
technology and engineering expertise. Our production systems control the flow of crude oil and natural gas from producing wells. We specialize in offshore production systems and have manufacturing facilities near the world’s principal offshore oil and gas producing basins. We market our products primarily through our own technical sales organization.

Principal Products and Services

Subsea Systems. Our systems are used in the offshore production of crude oil and natural gas. Subsea systems are placed on the seafloor and are used to control the flow of crude oil and natural gas from the reservoir to a host processing facility, such as a floating production facility, a fixed platform or an onshore facility. Our subsea equipment is controlled by the host processing facility.

The design and manufacture of our subsea systems requires a high degree of technical expertise and innovation. Some of our systems are designed to withstand exposure to the extreme hydrostatic pressure that deepwater environments present, as well as internal pressures of up to 15,000 pounds per square inch (“psi”) and temperatures in excess of 350º F. The development of our integrated subsea production systems includes initial engineering design studies and field development planning to consider all relevant aspects and project requirements including optimization of drilling programs and subsea architecture. Our subsea production systems and products include drilling systems, subsea trees, chokes and flow modules, manifold pipeline systems, control and data acquisition systems, well access systems and other electric technology. Additionally, as part of our technologies to enhance field economics by maximizing recovery, our subsea processing systems can enable cost-effective, platform-less solutions where the field is tied directly back to an existing offshore facility or directly to shore. Subsea processing system solutions include subsea boosting, subsea gas compression and subsea separation which are designed to accelerate production, increase recovery and extend field life. In order to provide these products, systems and services, we utilize engineering, project management, global procurement, manufacturing, assembly and testing capabilities.

We also provide well access and flow management services and other customer support services that offer a broad range of products and services including installation and workover tools, service technicians for installation assistance and field support for commissioning, intervention, and maintenance of our subsea systems throughout the life of the field. This scope of activity also includes providing tools such as our light well intervention system for certain well workover and intervention tasks. In 2012, FMC Technologies formed a joint venture with Edison Chouest Offshore LLC to provide integrated vessel-based subsea services for offshore oil and gas fields around the world. This joint venture is expected to provide cost-effective solutions to enhance our customer’s ability to initiate, maintain and increase production from subsea field developments through efficient operations, innovative technologies and a broad inventory of vessels and tools.

We often receive advance and progress payments from our customers in order to fund initial development and our working capital requirements.

Dependence on Key Customers

Generally, our customers in this segment are major integrated oil companies, national oil companies and independent exploration and production companies.

With our integrated systems for subsea production, we have actively pursued alliances with oil and gas companies that are engaged in the subsea development of crude oil and natural gas. Development of subsea fields, particularly in deepwater environments, involves substantial capital investments by our customers. Our customers have sought the security of alliances with us to ensure timely and cost-effective delivery of subsea and other energy-related systems that provide integrated solutions to their needs. Our alliances establish important ongoing relationships with our customers. While our alliances do not contractually commit our customers to purchase our systems and services, they have historically led to, and we expect that they will continue to result in, such purchases. Some examples of customers we have entered into alliances with include Statoil, Shell, BP and Anadarko.

The loss of one or more of our significant oil and gas company customers could have a material adverse effect on our Subsea Technologies business segment. In 2012, we generated approximately 10% of our consolidated revenue from Shell.

OTHER BUSINESS INFORMATION RELEVANT TO OUR BUSINESS SEGMENTS

Product Development

We continue to invest in product development to advance technologies necessary to meet and support the current and future technical challenges of our customers. New products are developed in order to ensure our ability to tender in upcoming projects and develop growth platforms. We also strive to increase standardization within our product lines in order to reduce delivery times, improve product integrity and control costs. To satisfy all these aims, we are focused on leveraging capabilities and advanced technologies from all of our businesses.

In our Subsea Technologies segment, we seek to invest in new technology that will enable the development of challenging fields. We continue to expand the portfolio of solutions in order to deliver a complete production system for high pressure, high temperature (“HPHT”) applications with products that can perform at pressures as high as 15,000 psi and temperatures in excess of 350º F. Key development work was completed in 2012 in the areas of sealing, tooling and insulation. Development efforts are now underway to engineer a portfolio of solutions for 20,000 psi and 400º F applications with key focus on materials testing and seal development.

In addition to enabling new developments, we also seek to develop solutions that will help operators maximize recovery from existing subsea fields. In 2012, qualification testing was completed on our Subsea MultiPhase Pump (“MPP”), which was introduced to the market for use in subsea boosting applications. The Subsea MPP combines field-proven pump hydraulics with innovative permanent magnet motors from our direct drive systems business. The Subsea MPP has a unique motor that differentiates it by enabling higher speed, power and efficiency in a more compact footprint compared to traditional induction motors. The subsea pump product line continued to expand as development activities initiated on the six megawatt, 15,000 psi multiphase pump. The six megawatt, 15,000 psi multiphase pump is being developed to meet the needs of a broader customer

base of the boosting market. Another technology that enables increased oil recovery is our Reactive Flex Joint. The Reactive Flex Joint reduces bending and fatigue on permanently installed subsea equipment caused by the riser and other drilling and intervention equipment. This solution can increase production by enabling increased interventions and extended well life. Additionally, the Reactive Flex Joint is expected to provide cost savings through lower rig costs and improved safety. A full scale prototype has been developed and tested.

We are also expanding our subsea services portfolio enabling us to provide more services that maximize production and recovery over the life of the field. With three currently in our product offering, a fourth Riserless Light Well Intervention (“RLWI”) system is currently under construction. RLWI is a cost-effective intervention solution designed to perform various types of jobs that will improve and optimize recovery using smaller, purpose-built intervention vessels rather than rigs. Additionally, we have developed a Condition and Performance Monitoring (“CPM”) system that has been deployed in the North Sea.

In our Surface Technologies segment, recently acquired capabilities from our acquisition of Pure Energy complemented our strategy to provide products and services to support shale operations. Further complementing these new capabilities, product development efforts in our fluid control business are focused on the engineering of the next generation of flowline equipment including swivels, valves and unions used in pressure pumping applications. These enhancements are expected to provide improved product performance throughout the fracturing operation. Additional investments were directed toward these enhancements, product line expansion and testing of valve technologies used in surface trees.

In our Energy Infrastructure segment, we are strongly focused on our developing core technologies. Our separation systems business completed the development of several technologies to further improve separation performance. Development and qualification was completed on a bulk dewaterer, a cyclonic pipe separator designed to take water out of the oil stream which is often encountered in aging fields producing increasing amounts of water. This innovative technology increases throughput through the separator and makes the separation system smaller in size. Additionally, development work was completed on new sand evacuation technologies designed to remove sand from separators and prevent clogging. These technologies provide greater efficiency and better sand removal performance for optimal operation of the separator. Our loading systems business completed additional development work on its targeting system for the footless loading arm for offshore LNG applications known as “OLAF.” This enhancement is expected to further improve performance in dynamic offshore environments. Our measurement solutions business continued enhancement and expansion of its ultrasonic meter product line. These developments are expected to improve product performance and allow the technology to be applied in a greater number of measurement applications throughout the value chain.

Order Backlog

Information regarding order backlog is incorporated herein by reference from the section entitled “Inbound Orders and Order Backlog” in Part II, Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

Our business segments purchase carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum and steel castings and forgings both domestically and internationally. We typically do not use single source suppliers for the majority of our raw material purchases and believe the available supplies of raw materials are adequate to meet our needs.

Patents, Trademarks and Other Intellectual Property

We own a number of U.S. and foreign patents, trademarks and licenses that are cumulatively important to our businesses. As part of our ongoing research and development, we seek patents when appropriate for new products and product improvements. We have approximately 1,060 issued patents and pending patent applications worldwide. Further, we license intellectual property rights to or from third parties. We also own numerous U.S. and foreign trademarks and trade names and have approximately 250 registrations and pending applications in the United States and abroad.

We protect and promote our intellectual property portfolio and take those actions we deem appropriate to enforce and defend our intellectual property rights. We do not believe, however, that the loss of any one patent, trademark or license, or group of related patents, trademarks or licenses would have a material adverse effect on our overall business.

Employees

As of December 31, 2012, we had approximately 18,400 full-time employees, consisting of approximately 6,300 in the United States and 12,100 in non-U.S. locations. Less than 2% of our U.S. employees are represented by labor unions.

International Operations in Countries Subject to U.S. Restrictions

Certain of our non-U.S. subsidiaries have engaged in transactions with countries subject to U.S. restrictions; however, the aggregate amount of such sales did not exceed 0.1% of our consolidated annual revenue in 2012. As such, we consider these sales immaterial. Even though our non-U.S. subsidiaries may, under applicable laws and regulations, engage in transactions with various countries, in 2009, like many other companies, we adopted a policy directing our non-U.S. subsidiaries to effectuate an orderly withdrawal from doing business with the various countries subject to U.S. restrictions. This policy prohibited entering into new commitments involving these countries, but did not require the non-U.S. subsidiaries to cease performance of existing commitments, provided such commitments could be performed in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. As a result of this policy decision, non-U.S. subsidiary sales to these countries accounted for less than 0.1% of our consolidated revenue in 2012. While some residual service-related sales may occur after 2012, we expect these to be insignificant since all remaining outstanding commitments have been substantially completed.

Financial Information about Geographic Areas

The majority of our consolidated revenue and segment operating profits are generated in markets outside of the United States. Each of our segments’ revenue is dependent upon worldwide oil and gas exploration and production activity. Financial information about geographic areas is incorporated herein by reference from Note 19 to our consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Important risk factors that could impact our ability to achieve our anticipated operating results and growth plan goals are presented below. The following risk factors should be read in conjunction with discussions of our business and the factors affecting our business located elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our other filings with the SEC.

Demand for our systems and services depends on oil and gas industry activity and expenditure levels, which are directly affected by trends in the demand for and price of crude oil and natural gas.

We are substantially dependent on conditions in the oil and gas industry, including the level of exploration, development and production activity of, and the corresponding capital spending by, oil and natural gas companies. Any substantial or extended decline in these expenditures may result in the reduced pace of discovery and development of new reserves of oil and gas and the reduced exploitation of existing wells, which could adversely affect demand for our systems and services and, in certain instances, result in the cancellation, modification or rescheduling of existing orders. These factors could have an adverse effect on our revenue and profitability. The level of exploration, development and production activity is directly affected by trends in oil and natural gas prices, which, historically, have been volatile.

Factors affecting the prices of oil and natural gas include, but are not limited to, the following:
demand for hydrocarbons, which is affected by worldwide population growth, economic growth rates and general economic and business conditions;
costs of exploring for, producing and delivering oil and natural gas;
political and economic uncertainty and sociopolitical unrest;
available excess production capacity within the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) and the level of oil production by non-OPEC countries;
oil refining capacity and shifts in end-customer preferences toward fuel efficiency and the use of natural gas;
technological advances affecting energy consumption;
potential acceleration of the development of alternative fuels;
access to capital and credit markets, which may affect our customers’ activity levels and spending for our products and services; and
natural disasters.

The oil and gas industry has historically experienced periodic downturns, which have been characterized by diminished demand for oilfield services and downward pressure on the prices we charge. A significant downturn in the oil and gas industry could result in a reduction in demand for oilfield services and could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

The industries in which we operate or have operated expose us to potential liabilities arising out of the installation or use of our systems that could adversely affect our financial condition.

We are subject to equipment defects, malfunctions and failures, equipment misuse and natural disasters, the occurrence of which may result in uncontrollable flows of gas or well fluids, fires and explosions. Although we have obtained insurance against many of these risks, our insurance may not be adequate to cover our liabilities. Further, the insurance may not generally be available in the future or, if available, premiums may not be commercially justifiable. If we incur substantial liability and the damages are not covered by insurance or are in excess of policy limits, or if we were to incur liability at a time when we are not able to obtain liability insurance, our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows could be materially adversely affected.

Our operations require us to comply with numerous U.S. and international regulations, violations of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We are exposed to a variety of federal, state, local and international laws and regulations relating to matters such as environmental, health and safety, labor and employment, import/export control, currency exchange, bribery and corruption and taxation. These laws and regulations are complex, frequently change and have tended to become more stringent over time. In the event the scope of these laws and regulations expand in the future, the incremental cost of compliance could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Our operations outside of the United States require us to comply with numerous anti-bribery and anti-corruption regulations under the laws of the United States and various other countries. The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), the United Kingdom (“U.K.”) Bribery Act and the China Anti-Unfair Competition Law, among others, apply to us and our operations. We have internal control policies and procedures and have implemented training and compliance programs for our employees and agents with respect to these regulations. However, our policies, procedures and programs may not always protect us from reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees or agents, and severe criminal or civil sanctions may be imposed as a result of violations of these laws. We are also subject to the risks that our employees, joint venture partners and agents outside of the United States may fail to comply with applicable laws.
Moreover, we import raw materials, semi-finished goods, as well as finished products into many countries for use in such countries or for manufacturing and/or finishing for re-export and import into another country for use or further integration into equipment or systems. Most movement of raw materials, semi-finished or finished products involves imports and exports. As a result, compliance with multiple trade sanctions, embargoes and import/export laws and regulations, as well as the recently enacted conflict minerals reporting requirements, pose a constant challenge and risk to us since our business is conducted on a worldwide basis through various subsidiaries. Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could materially affect our reputation, financial condition and results of operations.

Compliance with environmental regulations may adversely affect our business and operating results.
Environmental laws and regulations affect the equipment, systems and services we design, market and sell, as well as the facilities where we manufacture our equipment and systems. We are required to invest financial and managerial resources to comply with environmental laws and regulations and anticipate that we will continue to be required to do so in the future. These regulations, as well as the adoption of other laws and regulations affecting exploration and development of drilling for crude oil and natural gas, could adversely affect our business and operating results by increasing our costs, limiting the demand for our systems and services or restricting our operations.
International, national and state governments and agencies are currently evaluating and promulgating legislation and regulations that are focused on restricting emissions commonly referred to as greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions. For instance, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) has made findings that GHG emissions endanger public health and the environment and, based on these findings, has adopted regulations that restrict GHG emissions under existing provisions of the federal U.S. Clean Air Act, including one that requires a reduction of GHG emissions from motor vehicles and another that requires certain construction and operating permit reviews for GHG emissions from certain large stationary sources. In addition, the EPA has adopted rules requiring the monitoring and reporting of GHG emissions from certain sources, including onshore and offshore oil and natural gas production facilities and onshore oil and natural gas processing, transmission, storage and distribution facilities. These developments may curtail production and demand for oil and gas in areas of the world where our customers operate and could adversely affect future demand for our products and services.
Moreover, environmental concerns have been raised regarding the potential impact of hydraulic fracturing or “fracking” on underground water supplies. We provide equipment and services to companies employing this enhanced recovery technique. There have been several regulatory and governmental initiatives in the United States to restrict the hydraulic fracturing process, which could have an adverse impact on our customers’ completion or production activities. The EPA issued rules on April 17, 2012, which become effective in January 2015, designed to limit the release of volatile organic compounds, or pollutants, from natural gas wells that are hydraulically fractured. Certain governmental reviews are either underway or being proposed that focus on environmental aspects of hydraulic fracturing practices. Hydraulic fracturing restrictions also have been or are being considered for adoption in other countries. Should additional governmental regulations ultimately be imposed that further restrict or curtail hydraulic fracturing activities, the demand for our equipment and services could be impacted, which, in turn, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Disruptions in the political, regulatory, economic and social conditions of the foreign countries in which we conduct business could adversely affect our business or results of operations.

We operate manufacturing facilities in 15 countries outside of the United States and approximately 75% of our 2012 revenue was generated internationally. Instability and unforeseen changes in the international markets in which we conduct business, including economically and politically volatile areas such as North Africa, West Africa, the Middle East and the Commonwealth of Independent States (“CIS”), could have an adverse effect on the demand for our systems and services, our financial condition or our results of operations. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:
nationalization and expropriation;
potentially burdensome taxation;
inflationary and recessionary markets, including capital and equity markets;
civil unrest, labor issues, political instability, terrorist attacks, cyber-terrorism, military activity and wars;
supply disruptions in key oil producing countries;
ability of OPEC to set and maintain production levels and pricing;
trade restrictions, trade protection measures or price controls;
foreign ownership restrictions;
import or export licensing requirements;
restrictions on operations, trade practices, trade partners and investment decisions resulting from domestic and foreign laws and regulations;
changes in, and the administration of, laws and regulations;
inability to repatriate income or capital;
reductions in the availability of qualified personnel;
foreign currency fluctuations or currency restrictions; and
fluctuations in the interest rate component of forward foreign currency rates.

Because a significant portion of our revenue is denominated in foreign currencies, changes in exchange rates will produce fluctuations in our revenue, costs and earnings and may also affect the book value of our assets located outside of the United States and the amount of our stockholders’ equity. Although it is our policy to seek to minimize our currency exposure by engaging in hedging transactions where appropriate, our efforts may not be successful. To the extent we sell our products and services in foreign markets, currency fluctuations may result in our products and services becoming too expensive for foreign customers. As a result, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may affect our financial results.

We may lose money on fixed-price contracts.

As is customary for the types of businesses in which we operate, we often agree to provide products and services under fixed-price contracts. Under these contracts, we are typically responsible for cost overruns. Our actual costs and any gross profit realized on these fixed-price contracts may vary from the estimated amounts on which these contracts were originally based. There is inherent risk in the estimation process, including significant unforeseen technical and logistical challenges or longer than expected lead times. A fixed-price contract may prohibit our ability to mitigate the impact of unanticipated increases in raw material prices through increased pricing. Depending on the size of a project, variations from estimated contract performance could have a significant impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Disruptions in the timely delivery of our backlog could affect our future sales, profitability, and our relationships with our customers.

Many of the contracts we enter into with our customers require long manufacturing lead times due to complex technical and logistical requirements. These contracts may contain penalty clauses relating to on-time delivery, and a failure by us to deliver in accordance with customer expectations could subject us to contractual penalties, reduce our margins on these contracts or result in damage to existing customer relationships. The ability to meet customer delivery schedules for this backlog is dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, access to the raw materials required for production, an adequately trained and capable workforce, subcontractor performance, project engineering expertise, sufficient manufacturing

13

Table of Contents

plant capacity and appropriate planning and scheduling of manufacturing resources. Failure to deliver backlog in accordance with expectations could negatively impact our financial performance.

Due to the types of contracts we enter into, the cumulative loss of several major contracts or alliances may have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

We often enter into large, long-term contracts that, collectively, represent a significant portion of our revenue. For example, we have an alliance of this type with Shell, from which we generated approximately 10% of our consolidated revenue in 2012. These agreements, if terminated or breached, may have a larger impact on our operating results or our financial condition than shorter-term contracts due to the value at risk. If we were to lose several key alliances or agreements over a relatively short period of time we could experience a significant adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

A deterioration in future expected profitability or cash flows could result in an impairment of our recorded goodwill.

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently when impairment indicators arise. Reporting units with goodwill are tested for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, or based on management’s judgment, we determine it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a quantitative impairment test is performed. When using the quantitative test, the estimated fair value of each reporting unit is determined using discounted future expected cash flow models which require the use and application of certain estimates, including but not limited to, estimates of future cash flows and the selection of a discount rate. The results of our 2012 goodwill impairments tests indicated there was no impairment of goodwill. A lower fair value estimate in the future for any of our reporting units could result in goodwill impairments. Factors that could trigger a lower fair value estimate include changes in customer demand, cost increases, regulatory or political environment changes, and other changes in market conditions, such as decreased prices in market-based transactions for similar assets, which could impact future earnings of the reporting unit.
At December 31, 2012, recorded goodwill of $66.9 million was allocated to our DDS reporting unit. As a result of large investments in research and development and delays in the qualification of products related to bringing certain technologies to market, the financial results of our DDS reporting unit have been negatively impacted. While management is taking steps to improve the financial results of DDS by securing certain technology licensing agreements in response to a maturing market, should these efforts not result in performance improvements, the estimates and assumptions used in our goodwill impairment test for DDS would require re-evaluation and could result in an impairment of goodwill for this reporting unit.

Increased costs of raw materials and other components may result in increased operating expenses and adversely affect our results of operations or cash flows.

Our results of operations may be adversely affected by our inability to manage the rising costs and availability of raw materials and components used in our wide variety of products and systems. Unexpected changes in the size and timing of regional and/or product markets, particularly for short lead-time products, could affect our results of operations or cash flows.

Our businesses are dependent on the continuing services of certain of our key managers and employees.

We depend on our senior executive officers and other key personnel. The loss of any of these officers or key management could adversely impact our business if we are unable to implement key strategies or transactions in their absence. In addition, competition for qualified employees among companies, like ours, that rely heavily on engineering and technology is intense. The loss of qualified employees or an inability to attract, retain and motivate additional highly-skilled employees required for the operation and expansion of our business could hinder our ability to conduct research activities successfully and develop marketable products and services.

A failure of our information technology infrastructure could adversely impact our business and results of operations.

The efficient operation of our business is dependent on our information technology (“IT”) systems. Accordingly, we rely upon the capacity, reliability and security of our IT hardware and software infrastructure and our ability to expand and update this infrastructure in response to our changing needs. Despite our implementation of security measures, our systems are vulnerable to damages from computer viruses, natural disasters, incursions by intruders or hackers, failures in hardware or software, power fluctuations, cyber terrorists and other similar disruptions. The failure of our IT systems to perform as anticipated for any reason or any significant breach of security could disrupt our business and result in numerous adverse consequences, including reduced effectiveness and efficiency of operations, inappropriate disclosure of confidential information, increased overhead

14

Table of Contents

costs and loss of important information, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. In addition, we may be required to incur significant costs to protect against damage caused by these disruptions or security breaches in the future.

Our success depends on our ability to implement new technologies and services.

Our success depends on the ongoing development and implementation of new product designs and improvements and on our ability to protect and maintain critical intellectual property assets related to these developments. If we are not able to obtain patent or other protection of our technology, we may not be able to continue to develop systems, services and technologies to meet evolving industry requirements, and if so, at prices acceptable to our customers.

Some of our competitors are large national and multinational companies that may be able to devote greater financial, technical, manufacturing and marketing resources to the research and development of new systems, services and technologies than we are able to do. If we are unable to compete effectively given these risks, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

Uninsured claims and litigation against us, including intellectual property litigation, could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We could be impacted by the outcome of pending litigation, as well as unexpected litigation or proceedings. We have insurance coverage against operating hazards, including product liability claims and personal injury claims related to our products, to the extent deemed prudent by our management and to the extent insurance is available. However, no assurance can be given that the nature and amount of that insurance will be sufficient to fully indemnify us against liabilities arising out of pending and future claims and litigation. Our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows could be adversely affected by unexpected claims not covered by insurance.
In addition, the tools, techniques, methodologies, programs and components we use to provide our services may infringe upon the intellectual property rights of others. Infringement claims generally result in significant legal and other costs and may distract management from running our core business. Royalty payments under licenses from third parties, if available, would increase our costs. If a license were not available, we might not be able to continue providing a particular service or product, which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Additionally, developing non-infringing technologies would increase our costs.

A downgrade in the rating of our debt could restrict our ability to access the capital markets.

Changes in the ratings assigned to our debt may impact our access to the debt capital markets. If ratings for our debt fall below investment grade, our access to the debt capital markets could become restricted. Moreover, our revolving credit agreement includes an increase in interest rates if the ratings for our debt are downgraded. An increase in the level of our indebtedness and related interest costs may increase our vulnerability to adverse general economic and industry conditions and may affect our ability to obtain additional financing.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Executive Overview

We design, manufacture and service technologically sophisticated systems and products for customers in the energy industry. We have manufacturing operations worldwide, strategically located to facilitate delivery of our products, systems and services to our customers. We report the results of operations in the following segments: Subsea Technologies, Surface Technologies and Energy Infrastructure. Management’s determination of the Company’s reporting segments was made on the basis of our strategic priorities and corresponds to the manner in which our chief operating decision maker reviews and evaluates operating performance to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment.

A description of our products and services, as well as annual financial data, for each segment can be found in Part I, Item 1, “Business” and Note 19 to our consolidated financial statements in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The discussions below include the results of each of our segments for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

We focus on economic and industry-specific drivers and key risk factors affecting our business segments as we formulate our strategic plans and make decisions related to allocating capital and human resources. The following discussion provides examples of economic and industry factors and key risks that we consider.

The results of our businesses are primarily driven by changes in exploration and production spending by oil and gas companies, which largely depend upon current and anticipated future crude oil and natural gas demand, production volumes, and consequently, commodity prices. Our Subsea Technologies business is primarily affected by trends in deepwater oil and natural gas production. Our Surface Technologies business is primarily affected by trends in land-based and shallow water oil and natural gas production, including trends in shale production. We use crude oil and natural gas prices as an indicator of demand. The level of worldwide production activity influences spending decisions, and we use rig count as an additional indicator of demand.

We also focus on key risk factors when determining our overall strategy and making decisions for allocating capital. These factors include risks associated with the global economic outlook, product obsolescence and the competitive environment. We address these risks in our business strategies, which incorporate continuing development of leading edge technologies and cultivating strong customer relationships.

We have developed close working relationships with our customers. Our Subsea Technologies business results reflect our ability to build long-term alliances with oil and natural gas companies that are actively engaged in offshore deepwater development and to provide solutions for their needs in a timely and cost-effective manner. We believe that by working closely with our customers, we enhance our competitive advantage, strengthen our market positions and improve our operating results.

As we evaluate our operating results, we consider business segment performance indicators like segment revenue, operating profit and capital employed, in addition to the level of inbound orders and order backlog. A significant proportion of our revenue is recognized under the percentage of completion method of accounting. Cash receipts from such arrangements occur at milestones achieved under stated contract terms. Consequently, the timing of revenue recognition is not always highly correlated with the timing of customer payments. We may structure our contracts to receive advance payments that we typically use to fund engineering efforts and inventory purchases. Working capital (excluding cash) and net (debt) cash are therefore key performance indicators of cash flows.

In each of our segments, we serve customers from around the world. During 2012, approximately 75% of our total sales were generated from non-U.S. locations. We evaluate international markets and pursue opportunities that fit our technological capabilities and strategies. For example, we have targeted opportunities in West Africa, Brazil, the North Sea and the Asia-Pacific region because of the expected offshore drilling potential in those regions.

Business Outlook

Overall, management remains optimistic about business activity in 2013, despite expectations of slow global economic growth. While expectations of future energy demand remain closely tied to economic activity in major world economies, total world consumption of crude oil and liquid fuels is expected to slightly increase in 2013. As a result, we currently expect crude oil prices to remain at a level that supports strong exploration and production activity, especially in subsea markets.
Our strong subsea project backlog as of December 31, 2012, combined with increasing demand for subsea services related to exploration and production activity, supports our expectations of higher subsea revenue and increasing margins during 2013. These expectations are partly dependent upon our continued ability to successfully develop and advance the capacity and capabilities of our supply chain. We believe the workforce we added over the past two years, including increased capacity surrounding supply chain management, and the investments in facilities we have made are properly preparing us to take advantage of the expected subsea market growth. To complement this growth, we expect much of our subsea investment to center on expanding our subsea service offerings and processing capabilities. In 2012, there was evidence that pricing in our subsea technologies business was beginning to improve, and with the expected growth in the subsea market, we believe improved pricing will continue through 2013. Overall, we expect market demand to remain strong for our subsea technologies systems and service offerings worldwide.
Regarding our surface technologies portfolio, North American shale activity was strong during the first half of 2012; however, we experienced a slowdown in capital orders as a result of hydraulic fracturing fleets aligning with market demand during the latter half of 2012. Consequently, the downward market shift in North America in the second half of the year had a negative impact on segment profits in 2012 and is expected to continue through 2013. Despite the weakness in the North American market, our international surface wellhead business performed well in 2012 and is expected to continue to improve as a result of increasing international rig counts. In the fourth quarter of 2012, we completed the acquisition of Pure Energy which will allow us to offer an integrated fracturing rental service, consistent with our strategy for continued expansion in the shale markets and is expected to contribute to revenue and profit in 2013.

2012 Compared With 2011

Revenue increased by $1,052.4 million in 2012 compared to the prior year and reflected revenue growth in all reporting segments. Revenue in 2012 included a $188.4 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation, as compared to 2011. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, total revenue increased by $1,240.8 million year-over-year. Subsea systems and services had another strong year of order activity during 2012. The impact of the higher backlog coming into 2012, combined with robust market activity, led to increased Subsea Technologies sales year-over-year. Additionally, revenue increased year-over-year as a result of our acquisition of the remaining 55% of Schilling Robotics during the second quarter of 2012. Surface Technologies posted higher revenue during 2012 from higher backlog entering the year. The higher backlog entering the year was due to increased demand for Weco®/Chiksan® equipment and well service pumps due to the ongoing strength of the North American oil and gas shale markets in 2011.

Gross profit (revenue less cost of sales) decreased as a percentage of sales to 21.4% in 2012 from 22.2% in the prior year. The margin decline was predominantly due to the remeasurement of the Multi Phase Meters contingent earn-out consideration in Subsea Technologies. Additionally, the decrease in gross profit was also due to higher staffing and increased depreciation expense as a result of our expansion of our fluid control business. Foreign currency translation unfavorably impacted gross profit by $41.0 million in 2012 compared to the prior year.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense increased by $117.0 million year-over-year, driven by higher bid and proposal expenses, increased sales commissions and additional staffing to support operations.

R&D expense increased by $26.3 million year-over-year as we continued to advance new technologies in Subsea Technologies, including subsea processing capabilities, and related to the development of our permanent magnet motor technologies in our direct drive systems business.

Other income (expense), net, reflected a $20.0 million gain related to the fair valuation of our previously held equity interest in Schilling Robotics during 2012 and $1.4 million and $1.9 million of gains related to the remeasurement of foreign currency

exposures in 2012 and 2011, respectively. Further discussion of our derivative instruments is incorporated herein by reference from Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our provision for income taxes reflected an effective tax rate of 28.0% in 2012. In 2011, our effective tax rate was 27.2%. Excluding a benefit related to recognizing a retroactive holiday in Singapore in the first quarter of 2011, our effective tax rate was 28.5%. The decrease from this adjusted rate to the effective tax rate in 2012 was primarily due to changes in our international structure during 2012, partially offset by the tax impact of the remeasurement of the Multi Phase Meters contingent earn-out consideration and a less favorable mix of earnings. Our effective tax rate can fluctuate depending on our country mix of earnings, since our foreign earnings are generally subject to lower tax rates than in the United States. In certain jurisdictions, primarily Singapore and Malaysia, our tax rate is significantly less than the relevant statutory rate due to tax holidays which are set to expire after 2018 and 2015, respectively. The difference between the effective tax rate and the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate related primarily to differing foreign and state tax rates.

2011 Compared With 2010

Revenue increased by $973.4 million in 2011 compared to the prior year. Revenue in 2011 included a $197.9 million favorable impact of foreign currency translation, as compared to 2010. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, total revenue increased by $775.5 million year-over-year. We entered the year in 2011 with a solid backlog and continued to have strong order activity during 2011 for both subsea and surface products. The impact of the higher backlog coming into 2011 led to increased Subsea Technologies sales during the year. Additionally, Surface Technologies posted higher revenue during 2011 from increased demand for Weco®/Chiksan® equipment and well service pumps due to the ongoing strength of the North American oil and gas shale markets.

Gross profit (revenue less cost of sales) decreased as a percentage of sales to 22.2% in 2011 from 25.5% in 2010. The overall margin reduction was driven primarily by Subsea Technologies which experienced inefficiencies of integrating a rapidly increasing workforce. Additionally, we experienced higher project completion and post-completion costs in 2011, including costs associated with project delivery delays. The decrease in margins was partially offset by a margin improvement for Surface Technologies from increased sales in the expanding North American shale market. Foreign currency translation favorably impacted gross profit in 2011 by $35.5 million compared to the prior year.

SG&A expense increased by $47.9 million year-over-year, driven by increased bid activity and additional staffing to support operations.

R&D expense increased by $22.5 million year-over-year as we continued to advance new technologies in Subsea Technologies, including subsea processing capabilities.

Other expense, net, reflected gains of $1.9 million and losses of $6.9 million related to the remeasurement of foreign currency exposures, losses of $0.7 million and gains of $2.6 million associated with investments held in an employee benefit trust for our non-qualified deferred compensation plan, and losses of $2.6 million and $0.6 million of property, plant, and equipment disposals during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Further discussion of our derivative instruments is incorporated herein by reference from Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our provision for income taxes reflected an effective tax rate of 27.2% in 2011. In 2010, our effective tax rate was 29.8%. Our effective tax rate can fluctuate depending on our country mix of earnings, since our foreign earnings are generally subject to lower tax rates than in the United States. In certain jurisdictions, primarily Singapore and Malaysia, our tax rate is significantly less than the relevant statutory rate due to tax holidays which are set to expire after 2018 and 2015, respectively. Compared to 2010, our 2011 effective tax rate reflected a favorable change in the country mix of earnings. In addition, the decrease in the effective tax rate in 2011 was partially due to the impact of certain tax holidays in Singapore. In January 2011, we recognized a retroactive benefit of approximately $7.3 million related to these tax holidays which were retroactive to January 1, 2009. The difference between the effective tax rate and the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate related primarily to differing foreign and state tax rates.

We report our results of operations in U.S. dollars; however, our earnings are generated in various currencies worldwide. For example, we generate a significant amount of revenue, and incur a significant amount of costs, in Norwegian krone, Brazilian real, Singapore dollar, Malaysian ringgit, British pound and the euro. The earnings of subsidiaries functioning in their local currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon the average exchange rate during the period, in order to provide worldwide consolidated results. While the U.S. dollar results reported reflect the actual economics of the period reported upon, the variances from prior periods include the impact of translating earnings at different rates.

Subsea Technologies

2012 Compared With 2011

Subsea Technologies’ revenue increased $717.4 million in 2012 compared to the prior year. Revenue for 2012 included a $159.9 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation, as compared to the prior year. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, total revenue increased by $877.3 million during 2012 compared to the prior year. With continued high crude oil prices, oil and gas exploration and production activity increased in 2012 when compared to the prior year, as

evidenced by increased spending by oil and gas companies. This led to a stronger market for subsea products and services. We entered the year with a strong backlog and continued to have solid order activity during 2012 from high demand for subsea systems. The year-over-year increase in revenue was attributable to the conversion of backlog, combined with the strong order activity in 2012. The revenue increase in 2012 was also due in part to our acquisition of the remaining 55% of Schilling Robotics in the second quarter of 2012.

Subsea Technologies’ operating profit totaled $451.5 million, or 11.3% of revenue, in 2012, compared to the prior-year’s operating profit as a percentage of revenue of 9.7%. The year-over-year margin improvement was predominantly due to the conversion of lower margin backlog and higher project-related and post-completion costs in 2011. Additionally, we experienced operating profit benefits from our acquisition of the remaining 55% of Schilling Robotics in the second quarter of 2012 as well as improved margins in Multi Phase Meters. Foreign currency translation unfavorably impacted operating profit in 2012 by $23.5 million compared to the prior year.

2011 Compared With 2010

Subsea Technologies’ revenue increased $557.2 million in 2011 compared to the prior year. Revenue for 2011 included a $173.1 million favorable impact of foreign currency translation, as compared to the prior year. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, total revenue increased by $384.1 million during 2011, compared to the prior year. Oil and gas exploration and production activity increased in 2011 primarily due to higher average crude oil prices when compared to the prior year, leading to a strong subsea market. We entered the year with a strong backlog and continued to have solid order activity during 2011 from high demand for subsea systems. The year-over-year increase in revenue was attributable to the conversion of backlog. Revenue increases in 2011 were partially offset by a decrease in sales in the Gulf of Mexico due to slow recovery of the region after the United States imposed moratorium.

Subsea Technologies’ operating profit totaled $319.9 million, or 9.7% of revenue, in 2011, compared to the prior-year’s operating profit as a percentage of revenue of 15.5%. The year-over-year margin decline was predominantly due to the conversion of lower margin backlog from projects awarded prior to 2011, coupled with inefficiencies of integrating a rapidly increasing workforce. Additionally, we experienced higher project-related and post-completion costs in 2011, including costs associated with project delivery delays. Foreign currency translation favorably impacted operating profit in 2011 by $17.2 million compared to the prior year.

Surface Technologies

2012 Compared With 2011

Surface Technologies’ revenue increased $287.3 million in 2012 compared to the prior year. The revenue increase was driven by strong demand for Weco®/Chiksan® equipment coupled with an increased demand for well service pumps in our fluid control business due to the strength in North American oil and gas shale activity in the first half of 2012. Surface wellhead also experienced revenue growth year-over-year primarily due to conventional wellhead system sales and increased services related to hydraulic fracturing activity in North America and strong market growth in Asia Pacific. In addition, revenue increased year-over-year due to the acquisition of our completion services business in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Surface Technologies’ operating profit totaled $284.3 million, or 17.8% of revenue, in 2012, compared to the prior-year’s operating profit as a percentage of revenue of 19.1%. The margin decline was primarily driven by higher staffing and increased depreciation expense as a result of our expansion of our fluid control business, coupled with a margin decline in our surface wellhead business in Europe from higher warranty costs.

2011 Compared With 2010

Surface Technologies’ revenue increased $356.5 million in 2011 compared to the prior year. The increase was driven by strong demand for Weco®/Chiksan® equipment coupled with an increased demand for well service pumps due to the strength in North American oil and gas shale activity. In addition, surface wellhead markets in North America also led to revenue growth year-over-year primarily due to conventional wellhead system sales and increased services related to hydraulic fracturing activity.

Surface Technologies’ operating profit totaled $250.1 million, or 19.1% of revenue, in 2011, compared to the prior-year’s operating profit as a percentage of revenue of 18.2%. The margin improvement was driven primarily by higher sales volume for Weco®/Chiksan® equipment, well service pumps, and surface wellhead products and services and lower rates of SG&A expenses as a percent of sales from continued cost leveraging of segment growth.

Energy Infrastructure

2012 Compared With 2011

Energy Infrastructure’s revenue increased $72.8 million in 2012 compared to the prior year. The increase in revenue was led by our measurement solutions business due to the strength of North American oil and gas custody and control activity, the acquisition of our automation and control business in the second quarter of 2012, and increased sales volumes in our material handling business. Foreign currency translation unfavorably impacted revenue by $15.8 million in 2012 compared to the prior year.

Energy Infrastructure’s operating profit totaled $48.9 million, or 8.5% of revenue, in 2012, compared to the prior-year’s operating profit as a percentage of revenue of 9.8%. The decline in margin was driven by higher research and development expense in our direct drive systems business, and higher margin projects in our separation systems business in 2011. These margin declines were partially offset by improved margins from project completions in material handling and the acquisition of our automation and control business in 2012.

2011 Compared With 2010

Energy Infrastructure’s revenue increased $49.0 million in 2011 compared to the prior year. The increase was led by our material handling business due to improved activity in North America, however, increases in sales were realized in all lines of business. Foreign currency translation favorably impacted revenue in 2011 by $13.8 million compared to the prior year.

Energy Infrastructure’s operating profit totaled $49.3 million, or 9.8% of revenue, in 2011, compared to the prior-year’s operating profit as a percentage of revenue of 8.3%. The margin improvement was driven by higher sales volumes and margin improvement in all businesses as a result of lower period costs from improved execution, coupled with lower rates of SG&A expenses as a percent of sales from continued cost leveraging of segment growth.

Corporate Items

2012 Compared With 2011

Our corporate items reduced earnings by $188.3 million in 2012, compared to $70.2 million in 2011. The year-over-year increase primarily reflects the following:
unfavorable variance in foreign currency of $29.4 million;
unfavorable variance related to the remeasurement of the Multi Phase Meters contingent earn-out consideration of $42.0 million;
unfavorable variance associated with higher pension expense of $17.4 million, including $8.6 million related to the curtailment of our Norwegian defined benefit plan; and an
unfavorable variance related to higher interest expense of $18.4 million.

2011 Compared With 2010

Our corporate items reduced earnings by $70.2 million in 2011, compared to $97.9 million in 2010. The year-over-year decrease primarily reflects the following:
favorable variance in foreign currency of $24.6 million;
favorable variance related to the remeasurement of the Multi Phase Meters contingent earn-out consideration of $5.2 million;
favorable variance related to lower insurance liabilities of $4.0 million; and an
unfavorable variance associated with higher pension expense related to an executive retirement of $7.6 million.

Order backlog for Subsea Technologies at December 31, 2012, increased by $490.1 million compared to December 31, 2011, reflecting strong inbound of subsea projects in 2012. Backlog of $4.6 billion at December 31, 2012, was composed of various subsea projects, including BP’s Block 18; BG Norge’s Knarr; Chevron’s Wheatstone; CNR International’s Baobab; ExxonMobil’s Hibernia; Hess’ Tubular Bells; LLOG Exploration’s Delta House; Petrobras’ Tree and Manifold Frame Agreement, Pre-Salt Tree Agreement and Congro and Corvina; Shell’s BC-10, Bonga and Prelude; Statoil’s Statfjord Workover System, Gullfaks South and Oseberg Delta; Total’s CLOV; and Woodside’s Greater Western Flank. We expect to convert approximately 55% to 65% of December 31, 2012 backlog into revenue during 2013.

Order backlog for Surface Technologies at December 31, 2012, decreased by $76.9 million compared to December 31, 2011, driven by decreased demand for fluid control products attributable to the slowing of North American land-based activity, partially offset by improvements in demand for surface wellhead products in international markets.

Order backlog for Energy Infrastructure at December 31, 2012, increased by $71.1 million compared to December 31, 2011. The increase in backlog was primarily due to our loading systems business and completion services business, partially offset by a decrease of backlog in material handling.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Substantially all of our cash balances are held outside the United States and is generally used to meet the liquidity needs of our non-U.S. operations. Most of our cash held outside the United States could be repatriated to the United States, but under current law, any such repatriation would be subject to U.S. federal income tax, as adjusted for applicable foreign tax credits. We have provided for U.S. federal income taxes on undistributed foreign earnings where we have determined that such earnings are not indefinitely reinvested.

We expect to meet the continuing funding requirements of our U.S. operations with cash generated by such U.S. operations, cash from earnings generated by non-U.S. operations that are not indefinitely reinvested and our existing credit facility. If cash held by non-U.S. operations is required for funding operations in the United States, and if U.S. tax has not previously been provided on the earnings of such operations, we would make a provision for additional U.S. tax in connection with repatriating this cash, which may be material to our cash flows and results of operations.

Net debt, or net cash, is a non-GAAP measure reflecting debt, net of cash and cash equivalents. Management uses this non-GAAP measure to evaluate our capital structure and financial leverage. We believe that net debt, or net cash, is a meaningful measure that will assist investors in understanding our results and recognizing underlying trends. Net (debt) cash should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash and cash equivalents as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity.

Operating Cash Flows

During 2012, we generated $138.4 million in cash flows from operating activities of continuing operations, which represented a $26.4 million decrease compared to the prior year. Our cash flows from operating activities in 2011 were $30.0 million lower than 2010. The year-over-year decrease in 2012 was due to a increase in our working capital driven by our portfolio of projects, partially offset by higher income during the year. The year-over-year change in 2011 was primarily due to changes in deferred income taxes, partially offset by improvements in our working capital. Our working capital balances can vary significantly depending on the payment terms and timing on key contracts.

Investing Cash Flows

Our cash requirements for investing activities in 2012 were $1,019.9 million, primarily reflecting cash required by our acquisitions of the remaining 55% of Schilling Robotics, 100% of Pure Energy and 100% of CSI which amounted to $615.5 million, net of cash acquired. Additionally, our capital expenditure program required cash of $405.6 million during 2012 related to continued investments in capacity expansion, tooling, rental tools and equipment upgrades.

Our cash requirements for investing activities in 2011 and 2010 were $273.7 million and $109.4 million, respectively, primarily consisting of amounts to fund capital expenditures. Capital expenditures in 2011 and 2010 reflected our investment in capacity expansion, rental tools, subsea test equipment and tools and manufacturing equipment replacements. Additionally, our investments in late 2010 included the construction of a technology center in Brazil.

Financing Cash Flows

Cash provided by financing activities was $881.4 million in 2012. The increase in cash was driven by the public offering of $800.0 million aggregate principal amount of our senior notes and the issuance of commercial paper to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions and working capital needs, partially offset by $91.1 million in common stock repurchases under our share repurchase authorization program and the repayment of indebtedness under our revolving credit facility.

Cash provided (required) by financing activities was $141.0 million and $(230.8) million in 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in cash from financing activities in 2011 was driven by the issuance of commercial paper to fund our capital expansion, partially offset by $114.0 million in common stock repurchases under our share repurchase authorization program. In 2010, cash required by financing activities was due to our repurchase of common stock under our share repurchase program of $164.4 million and the reduction of our net borrowings of $57.9 million.

Debt and Liquidity

On September 21, 2012, we completed the public offering of $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.00% senior notes due October 2017 and $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.45% senior notes due October 2022 (collectively, the “Senior Notes”). Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning April 1, 2013. Net proceeds from the offering of $793.8 million were used for the repayment of outstanding commercial paper and indebtedness under our revolving credit facility. Additional information about the Senior Notes is incorporated herein by reference from Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

On March 26, 2012, we entered into a new $1.5 billion revolving credit agreement (“credit agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The credit agreement is a five-year, revolving credit facility expiring in March 2017. Subject to certain conditions, at our request and with the approval of the Administrative Agent, the aggregate commitments under the credit agreement may be increased by an additional $500.0 million.

Table of Contents

Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at a base rate or the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”), at our option, plus an applicable margin. Depending on our total leverage ratio, the applicable margin for revolving loans varies (i) in the case of LIBOR loans, from 1.125% to 1.750% and (ii) in the case of base rate loans, from 0.125% to 0.750%. The base rate is the highest of (1) the prime rate announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., (2) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% or (3) one-month LIBOR plus 1.0%.
In connection with the new credit agreement, we terminated and repaid all outstanding amounts under our previously existing $600.0 million five-year revolving credit agreement and our $350.0 million three-year revolving credit agreement.

______________________________
(a)
Under our commercial paper program, we have the ability to access up to $1.0 billion of financing through our commercial paper dealers. Our available capacity under our revolving credit facility is reduced by any outstanding commercial paper.

Committed credit available under our revolving credit facility provides the ability to issue our commercial paper obligations on a long-term basis. We had $669.8 million of commercial paper issued under our facility at December 31, 2012. As we had both the ability and intent to refinance these obligations on a long-term basis, our commercial paper borrowings were classified as long-term in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012.

Among other restrictions, the terms of the credit agreement include negative covenants related to liens and a financial covenant related to the debt-to-earnings ratio. We were in compliance with all restrictive covenants as of December 31, 2012.

Outlook for 2013

Historically, we have generated our capital resources primarily through operations and, when needed, through our credit facility. The volatility in credit, equity and commodity markets creates some uncertainty for our businesses. However, management believes, based on our current financial condition, existing backlog levels and current expectations for future market conditions, that we will continue to meet our short- and long-term liquidity needs with a combination of cash on hand, cash generated from operations and access to capital markets. In 2013, we expect an estimated cash outlay from operations of $58.8 million related to the first payment of the Multi Phase Meters earn-out consideration obligation.

We project spending approximately $400.0 million in 2013 for capital expenditures, largely towards our subsea expansion in Brazil, Norway and West Africa and related to growth of our subsea service offerings. We expect to make contributions of approximately $19.0 million and $30.6 million to our domestic pension plans and international pension plans during 2013. Actual contribution amounts are dependent upon plan investment returns, changes in pension obligations, regulatory environments and other economic factors. We update our pension estimates annually or more frequently upon the occurrence of significant events. Further, we expect to continue our stock repurchases authorized by our Board of Directors, with the timing and amounts of these repurchases dependent upon market conditions and liquidity.

We have $724.2 million in capacity available under our revolving credit facility that we expect to utilize if working capital needs temporarily increase in response to market demand. We continue to evaluate acquisitions, divestitures and joint ventures that meet our strategic priorities. Our intent is to maintain a level of financing sufficient to meet these objectives.

______________________________
(a)
Our available long-term debt is dependent upon our compliance with covenants, including negative covenants related to liens, and a financial covenant related to the debt-to-earnings ratio. Any violation of covenants or other events of default, which are not waived or cured, or changes in our credit rating could have a material impact on our ability to maintain our committed financing arrangements.
Only interest on our Senior Notes is included in the table. During 2012, we paid $18.5 million for interest charges, net of interest capitalized.
(b)
In the normal course of business, we enter into agreements with our suppliers to purchase raw materials or services. These agreements include a requirement that our supplier provide products or services to our specifications and require us to make a firm purchase commitment to our supplier. As substantially all of these commitments are associated with purchases made to fulfill our customers’ orders, the costs associated with these agreements will ultimately be reflected in cost of sales on our consolidated statements of income.
(c)
We expect to contribute approximately $30.6 million to our international pension plans, representing primarily the U.K. and Norway qualified pension plans, and our Non-Qualified Defined Benefit Pension Plan in 2013. Additionally, we may make a discretionary contribution of approximately $19.0 million to our domestic qualified pension plan in 2013. Required contributions for future years depend on factors that cannot be determined at this time.
(d)
As of December 31, 2012, we had a liability for unrecognized tax benefits, net of deferred income tax benefits, of $34.8 million. It is reasonably possible that $16.0 million of the liability will be settled during 2013, and this amount is reflected in income taxes payable in our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012. Due to the high degree of uncertainty regarding the timing of potential future cash flows associated with the remaining $18.8 million in liabilities, we are unable to make a reasonable estimate of the period in which such liabilities might be paid.

As collateral for our performance on certain sales contracts or as part of our agreements with insurance companies, we are liable under letters of credit, surety bonds and other bank guarantees. In order to obtain these financial instruments, we pay fees to various financial institutions in amounts competitively determined in the marketplace. Our ability to generate revenue from certain contracts is dependent upon our ability to obtain these off-balance sheet financial instruments. These off-balance sheet financial instruments may be renewed, revised or released based on changes in the underlying commitment. Historically, our commercial commitments have not been drawn upon to a material extent; consequently, management believes it is not likely that there will be claims against these commitments that will have a negative impact on our key financial ratios or our ability to obtain financing.

Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Management has reviewed these critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. We believe the following critical accounting estimates used in preparing our financial statements address all important accounting areas where the nature of the estimates or assumptions is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change.
Percentage of Completion Method of Accounting
We recognize revenue on construction-type manufacturing projects using the percentage of completion method, where revenue is recognized as work progresses on each contract. There are several acceptable methods under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles of measuring progress toward completion. Most frequently, we use the ratio of costs incurred to date to total estimated contract costs at completion to measure progress toward completion.
We execute contracts with our customers that clearly describe the equipment, systems and/or services that we will provide and the amount of consideration we will receive. After analyzing the drawings and specifications of the contract requirements, our project engineers estimate total contract costs based on their experience with similar projects and then adjust these estimates for specific risks associated with each project, such as technical risks associated with a new design. Costs associated with specific risks are estimated by assessing the probability that conditions will arise that will affect our total cost to complete the project. After work on a project begins, assumptions that form the basis for our calculation of total project cost are examined on a monthly basis and our estimates are updated to reflect new information as it becomes available.
Revenue recognized using the percentage of completion method was approximately 51%, 54% and 53% for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. A significant portion of our total revenue recognized under the percentage of completion method relates to the Subsea Technologies segment, primarily for subsea exploration and production equipment projects that involve the design, engineering, manufacturing and assembly of complex, customer-specific systems. The systems are not entirely built from standard bills of material and typically require extended periods of time to design and construct.
Total estimated contract cost affects both the revenue recognized in a period as well as the reported profit or loss on a project. The determination of profit or loss on a contract requires consideration of contract revenue, change orders and claims, less costs incurred to date and estimated costs to complete. Anticipated losses on contracts are recognized in full in the period in which they are identified. Profits are recognized based on the estimated project profit multiplied by the percentage complete.
The total estimated contract cost in percentage of completion accounting is a critical accounting estimate because it can materially affect revenue and profit and requires us to make judgments about matters that are uncertain. There are many factors, including, but not limited to, the ability to properly execute the engineering and designing phases consistent with our customers’ expectations, the availability and costs of labor and resources, productivity and weather, that can affect the accuracy of our cost estimates, and ultimately, our future profitability. In the past, we have realized both lower and higher than expected margins and have incurred losses as a result of unforeseen changes in our project costs; however, historically, our estimates have been reasonably dependable regarding the recognition of revenue and profit on percentage of completion contracts. Based upon analysis of percentage of completion contracts for all open contracts at December 31, 2012 and 2011, adjustments to contracts (representing the difference between the estimated and actual results) resulted in net increases to operating profit of 0.7% and 1.9% as a percentage of total contract value for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The amount of revenue recognized using the percentage of completion method is sensitive to changes in our estimates of total contract costs. For each contract in progress at December 31, 2012, a 1% increase or decrease in the estimated margin earned on each contract would have increased or decreased total revenue and pre-tax income by $32.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Inventory Valuation
Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. In order to determine net realizable value, we evaluate each component of inventory on a regular basis to determine whether it is excess or obsolete. We record the decline in the carrying value of estimated excess or obsolete inventory as a reduction of inventory and as an expense included in cost of sales in the period in which it is identified. Our estimate of excess and obsolete inventory is a critical accounting estimate because it is highly susceptible to change from period to period. In addition, the estimate requires management to make judgments about the future demand for inventory.

33

Table of Contents

In order to quantify excess or obsolete inventory, we begin by preparing a candidate listing of the components of inventory that have a quantity on hand in excess of usage within the most recent two-year period. The list is reviewed with sales, engineering, production and materials management personnel to determine whether the list of potential excess or obsolete inventory items is accurate. As part of this evaluation, management considers whether there has been a change in the market for finished goods, whether there will be future demand for on-hand inventory items and whether there are components of inventory that incorporate obsolete technology. Finally, an assessment is made of our historical usage of inventory previously written off as excess or obsolete, and a further adjustment to the estimate is made based on this historical experience. As a result, our estimate of excess or obsolete inventory is sensitive to changes in assumptions about future usage of the inventory. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information related to inventory valuation adjustments.
Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets
Long-lived assets, including property, plant and equipment, identifiable intangible assets being amortized and capitalized software costs are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the long-lived asset may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If it is determined that an impairment loss has occurred, the loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. The determination of future cash flows as well as the estimated fair value of long-lived assets involves significant estimates on the part of management. Because there usually is a lack of quoted market prices for long-lived assets, fair value of impaired assets is typically determined based on the present values of expected future cash flows using discount rates believed to be consistent with those used by principal market participants, or based on a multiple of operating cash flow validated with historical market transactions of similar assets where possible.
Impairment of Goodwill
Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. We have established October 31 as the date of our annual test for impairment of goodwill. Reporting units with goodwill are tested for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, or based on management’s judgment, we determine it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a two-step quantitative impairment test is performed.
When using the two-step quantitative impairment test, determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include revenue growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, discount rates and future economic and market conditions. Our estimates are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and do not reflect unanticipated events and circumstances that may occur.
At December 31, 2012, recorded goodwill of $66.9 million was allocated to our DDS reporting unit. As a result of large investments in research and development and delays in the qualification of product related to bringing certain technologies to market, the financial results of our DDS reporting unit have been negatively impacted. While management is taking steps to improve the financial results of DDS by securing certain technology licensing arrangements in response to a maturing market, should these efforts not result in performance improvements, the estimates and assumptions used in our goodwill impairment test for DDS would require re-evaluation and could result in an impairment of goodwill for this reporting unit.
A lower fair-value estimate in the future for any of our reporting units could result in goodwill impairments. Factors that could trigger a lower fair-value estimate include sustained price declines, cost increases, regulatory or political environment changes, and other changes in market conditions, such as decreased prices in market-based transactions for similar assets. We have not recognized any goodwill impairment for the years ended December 31, 2012 or 2011, as the fair values of our reporting units with goodwill balances exceeded our carrying amounts. In addition, there were no negative conditions, or triggering events, that occurred in 2012 or 2011 requiring us to perform additional impairment reviews.
Accounting for Income Taxes
Our income tax expense, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and reserves for uncertain tax positions reflect management’s best assessment of estimated future taxes to be paid. We are subject to income taxes in the United States and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Significant judgments and estimates are required in determining our consolidated income tax expense.

Table of Contents

In determining our current income tax provision, we assess temporary differences resulting from differing treatments of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are recorded in our consolidated balance sheets. When we maintain deferred tax assets, we must assess the likelihood that these assets will be recovered through adjustments to future taxable income. To the extent we believe recovery is not likely, we establish a valuation allowance. We record an allowance reducing the asset to a value we believe will be recoverable based on our expectation of future taxable income. We believe the accounting estimate related to the valuation allowance is a critical accounting estimate because it is highly susceptible to change from period to period. It requires management to make assumptions about our future income over the lives of the deferred tax assets, and the impact of increasing or decreasing the valuation allowance is potentially material to our results of operations.
Forecasting future income requires us to use a significant amount of judgment. In estimating future income, we use our internal operating budgets and long-range planning projections. We develop our budgets and long-range projections based on recent results, trends, economic and industry forecasts influencing our segments’ performance, our backlog, planned timing of new product launches and customer sales commitments. Significant changes in the expected realizability of a deferred tax asset would require that we adjust the valuation allowance applied against the gross value of our total deferred tax assets, resulting in a change to net income.
As of December 31, 2012, we believe that it is not more likely than not that we will generate future taxable income in certain foreign jurisdictions in which we have cumulative net operating losses and, therefore, we have provided a valuation allowance against the related deferred tax assets. As of December 31, 2012, we believe that it is more likely than not that we will have future taxable income in the United States to utilize our domestic deferred tax assets. Therefore, we have not provided a valuation allowance against any domestic deferred tax assets.
The need for a valuation allowance is sensitive to changes in our estimate of future taxable income. If our estimate of future taxable income was 25% lower than the estimate used, we would still generate sufficient taxable income to utilize such domestic deferred tax assets.
The calculation of our income tax expense involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in numerous jurisdictions in which we operate. We recognize tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions when, in our judgment, it is more likely than not that such positions will be sustained on examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation, based on the technical merits. We adjust our liabilities for uncertain tax positions when our judgment changes as a result of new information previously unavailable. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, their ultimate resolution may result in payments that are materially different from our current estimates. Any such differences will be reflected as adjustments to income tax expense in the periods in which they are determined.
Accounting for Pensions
Our pension and other post-retirement (health care and life insurance) obligations are described in Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. In order to measure the expense and obligations associated with our pension benefits, management must make a variety of estimates, including discount rates used to value certain liabilities, expected return on plan assets set aside to fund these costs, rate of compensation increase, employee turnover rates, retirement rates, mortality rates and other factors. We update these estimates on an annual basis or more frequently upon the occurrence of significant events. These accounting estimates bear the risk of change due to the uncertainty associated with each estimate, as well as the fact that these estimates are difficult to measure. Different estimates used by management could result in our recognizing different amounts of expense over different periods of time.
Due to the specialized nature of these calculations, we engage third-party specialists to assist management in evaluating our assumptions as well as appropriately measuring the costs and obligations associated with these pension benefits. The discount rate and expected return on plan assets are primarily based on investment yields available and the historical performance of our plan assets. These elements are critical accounting estimates because they are subject to management’s judgment and can materially affect net income.
The discount rate used affects the interest cost component of net periodic pension cost. The discount rate is based on rates at which the pension benefit obligation could effectively be settled on a present value basis. To determine the weighted average discount rate, we review long-term, high quality (“AA” rated) corporate bonds at our determination date and use a model that matches the projected benefit payments for our plans to coupons and maturities from high quality bonds. Significant changes in the discount rate, such as those caused by changes in the yield curve, the mix of bonds available in the market, the duration of selected bonds and the timing of expected benefit payments, may result in volatility in pension expense and pension liabilities. The weighted average discount rate used to compute net periodic benefit cost decreased to 4.60% in 2012 from 5.39% in 2011 for U.S. plans and 4.54% in 2012 from 5.00% in 2011 for international plans.

Table of Contents

Our pension expense is sensitive to changes in our estimate of the discount rate. Holding other assumptions constant, a 50 basis point reduction in the discount rate would increase annual pension expense by approximately $9.8 million before taxes. Holding other assumptions constant, a 50 basis point increase in the discount rate would decrease annual pension expense by approximately $11.1 million before taxes.
Net periodic pension cost includes an underlying expected long-term rate of asset return. Our estimate of the expected rate of return on plan assets is primarily based on the historical performance of plan assets, current market conditions, our asset allocation and long-term growth expectations. We assumed a weighted average expected rate of return for our pension plans of 9.00% in 2012 and 9.00% in 2011 for our U.S. plans and 7.62% in 2012 and 6.98% in 2011 for our international plans. The expected return on plan assets is recognized as part of the net periodic pension cost. The difference between the expected return and the actual return on plan assets is amortized over the expected remaining service life of employees, resulting in a lag time between the market’s performance and its impact on plan results. Holding other assumptions constant, a 50 basis points increase or decrease in the expected rate of return on plan assets would decrease or increase annual pension expense by approximately $4.1 million before taxes, respectively.
Determination of Fair Value in Business Combinations
Accounting for the acquisition of a business requires the allocation of the purchase price to the various assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their respective fair values. The determination of fair value requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, and in making these determinations, management uses all available information. If necessary, we have up to one year after the acquisition closing date to finalize these fair value determinations. For tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination, the determination of fair value utilizes several valuation methodologies including discounted cash flows which has assumptions with respect to the timing and amount of future revenue and expenses associated with an asset. The assumptions made in performing these valuations include, but are not limited to, discount rates, future revenues and operating costs, projections of capital costs, and other assumptions believed to be consistent with those used by principal market participants. Due to the specialized nature of these calculations, we engage third-party specialists to assist management in evaluating our assumptions as well as appropriately measuring the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Any significant change in key assumptions may cause the acquisition accounting to be revised. Business combinations are described in Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standard Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11, “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This update requires management to disclose both gross information and net information of recognized financial instruments, derivative instruments, and transactions eligible for offset in the consolidated balance sheet and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The updated guidance is to be applied retrospectively, effective January 1, 2013. We believe the adoption of this guidance concerns disclosure only and will not have an impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Management believes that other recently issued accounting standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are subject to financial market risks, including fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. In order to manage and mitigate our exposure to these risks, we may use derivative financial instruments in accordance with established policies and procedures. We do not use derivative financial instruments where the objective is to generate profits solely from trading activities. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, our derivative holdings consisted of foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency instruments embedded in purchase and sale contracts. At December 31, 2011, we also held interest rate swap agreements.
These forward-looking disclosures only address potential impacts from market risks as they affect our financial instruments and do not include other potential effects that could impact our business as a result of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, commodity prices or equity prices.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
We conduct operations around the world in a number of different currencies. Most of our significant foreign subsidiaries have designated the local currency as their functional currency. Our earnings are therefore subject to change due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when the earnings in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars. We do not hedge this translation impact on earnings. A 10% increase or decrease in the average exchange rates of all foreign currencies at December 31, 2012, would have changed our revenue and income from continuing operations by approximately 5% and 2%, respectively.
When transactions are denominated in currencies other than our subsidiaries’ respective functional currencies, we manage these exposures through the use of derivative instruments to mitigate our risk. We use foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the foreign currency fluctuation associated with firmly committed and forecasted foreign currency denominated payments and receipts. The derivative instruments associated with these anticipated transactions are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges, and as such the gains and losses associated with these instruments are recorded in other comprehensive income until such time that the underlying transactions are recognized. When an anticipated transaction in a currency other than the functional currency of an entity is recognized as an asset or liability on the balance sheet, we also hedge the foreign currency fluctuation with derivative instruments after netting our exposures worldwide. These derivative instruments do not qualify as cash flow hedges.
Occasionally, we enter into contracts or other arrangements that are subject to foreign exchange fluctuations that qualify as embedded derivative instruments. In those situations, we enter into derivative foreign exchange contracts that hedge the price fluctuations due to movements in the foreign exchange rates. These hedges are not treated as cash flow hedges.
We have prepared a sensitivity analysis of our foreign currency forward contracts hedging anticipated transactions that are accounted for as cash flow hedges. This analysis assumes that each foreign currency rate would change 10% against a stronger and then weaker U.S. dollar. A 10% increase in the value of the U.S. dollar would result in an additional loss of $41.2 million in the net fair value of cash flow hedges reflected in our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012. Unless these contracts are deemed to be ineffective, changes in the derivative fair value will not have an immediate impact on our results of operations since the gains and losses associated with these instruments are recorded in other comprehensive income. When the anticipated transactions occur, these changes in value of derivatives instrument positions will be offset against changes in the value of the underlying transaction.

Table of Contents

Interest Rate Risk
At December 31, 2012, we had unhedged variable rate debt of $769.8 million with a weighted average interest rate of 0.64%. Using sensitivity analysis to measure the impact of a 10% adverse movement in the interest rate, or six basis points, would result in an increase to interest expense of $0.5 million.
We assess effectiveness of forward foreign currency contracts designated as cash flow hedges based on changes in fair value attributable to changes in spot rates. We exclude the impact attributable to changes in the difference between the spot rate and the forward rate for the assessment of hedge effectiveness and recognize the change in fair value of this component immediately in earnings. Considering that the difference between the spot rate and the forward rate is proportional to the differences in the interest rates of the countries of the currencies being traded, we have exposure to relative changes in interest rates between countries in our results of operations. To the extent any one interest rate increases by 10% across all tenors and other countries’ interest rates remain fixed, and assuming no change in discount rates, we would expect any impact in earnings in the period of change would be immaterial. Based on our portfolio as of December 31, 2012, we have material positions with exposure to the interest rates in the United States, Brazil, the United Kingdom, Australia, Singapore, the European Community and Norway.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders of FMC Technologies, Inc.:
We have audited FMC Technologies, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). FMC Technologies, Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the FMC Technologies, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, FMC Technologies, Inc. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of FMC Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows, and changes in stockholders’ equity for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2012, and our report dated February 22, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

FMC TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of operations—FMC Technologies, Inc. and consolidated subsidiaries (“FMC Technologies,” “we” or “us”) designs, manufactures and services technologically sophisticated systems and products for our customers in the energy industry through our business segments: Subsea Technologies, Surface Technologies and Energy Infrastructure. We have manufacturing operations worldwide, strategically located to facilitate delivery of our products, systems and services to our customers.
Basis of presentation—Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars and in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
On February 25, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock. The stock split was completed in the form of a stock dividend that was issued on March 31, 2011 to stockholders of record at the close of business on March 14, 2011. All common share and per share information in our consolidated financial statements have been revised retroactively to reflect the stock split.
Principles of consolidation—The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FMC Technologies and its majority-owned subsidiaries and affiliates. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Use of estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, estimates of total contract profit or loss on long-term construction-type contracts; estimated realizable value on excess and obsolete inventory; estimates related to pension accounting; estimates related to fair value for purposes of assessing goodwill, long-lived assets and intangible assets for impairment; estimates related to fair value for purposes of assigning amounts to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations; estimates related to income taxes; and estimates related to contingencies, including liquidated damages.
Investments in the common stock of unconsolidated affiliates—The investments in, and the operating results of, unconsolidated affiliates are included in the consolidated financial statements on the basis of the equity method of accounting or the cost method of accounting, depending on specific facts and circumstances.
Investments in unconsolidated affiliates are assessed for impairment whenever events or changes in facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the investments may not be fully recoverable. When such a condition is judgmentally determined to be other than temporary, the carrying value of the investment is written down to fair value. Management’s assessment as to whether any decline in value is other than temporary is based on our ability and intent to hold the investment and whether evidence indicating the carrying value of the investment is recoverable within a reasonable period of time outweighs evidence to the contrary. Management generally considers our investments in equity method investees to be strategic long-term investments and completes its assessments for impairment with a long-term viewpoint.
Reclassifications—Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.
Revenue recognition—Revenue is generally recognized once the following four criteria are met: i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, ii) delivery of the equipment has occurred (which is upon shipment or when customer-specific acceptance requirements are met) or services have been rendered, iii) the price of the equipment or service is fixed and determinable, and iv) collectibility is reasonably assured. We record our sales net of any value added, sales or use tax.
For certain construction-type manufacturing and assembly projects that involve significant design and engineering efforts in order to satisfy detailed customer-supplied specifications, revenue is recognized using the percentage of completion method of accounting. Under the percentage of completion method, revenue is recognized as work progresses on each contract. We primarily apply the ratio of costs incurred to date to total estimated contract costs at completion to measure this ratio. If it is not possible to form a reliable estimate of progress toward completion, no revenue or costs are recognized until the project is complete or substantially complete. Any expected losses on construction-type contracts in progress are charged to earnings, in total, in the period the losses are identified.
Modifications to construction-type contracts, referred to as “change orders,” effectively change the provisions of the original contract, and may, for example, alter the specifications or design, method or manner of performance, equipment, materials, sites and/or period for completion of the work. If a change order represents a firm price commitment from a customer, we account for the revised estimate as if it had been included in the original estimate, effectively recognizing the pro rata impact of the new

47

Table of Contents

estimate on our calculation of progress toward completion in the period in which the firm commitment is received. If a change order is unpriced: (1) we include the costs of contract performance in our calculation of progress toward completion in the period in which the costs are incurred or become probable; and (2) when it is determined that the revenue is probable of recovery, we include the change order revenue, limited to the costs incurred to date related to the change order, in our calculation of progress toward completion. Unpriced change orders included in revenue were immaterial to our consolidated revenue for all periods presented. Margin is not recorded on unpriced change orders unless realization is assured beyond a reasonable doubt. The assessment of realization may be based upon our previous experience with the customer or based upon our receipt of a firm price commitment from the customer.
Progress billings generally are issued contingent on completion of certain phases of the work as stipulated in the contract. Revenue in excess of progress billings on contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion method amounted to $627.7 million and $411.8 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These unbilled receivables are reported in trade receivables on the consolidated balance sheets. Progress billings and cash collections in excess of revenue recognized on a contract are classified as advance payments and progress billings within current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
Shipping and handling costs—Shipping and handling costs are recorded as cost of product revenue in our consolidated statements of income. Shipping and handling costs billed to customers are recorded as a component of revenue.
Cash equivalents—Cash equivalents are highly-liquid, short-term instruments with original maturities of three months or less from their date of purchase.
Trade receivables—An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided on trade receivables equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. This estimate is based on historical collection experience and a specific review of each customer’s trade receivable balance.
Inventories—Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory costs include those costs directly attributable to products, including all manufacturing overhead, but excluding costs to distribute. Cost is determined on the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) basis for all significant domestic inventories, except certain inventories relating to construction-type contracts, which are stated at the actual production cost incurred to date, reduced by the portion of these costs identified with revenue recognized. The first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method is used to determine the cost for all other inventories.
Investments—The appropriate classification of investments in marketable equity securities is determined at the time of purchase and re-evaluated as of each subsequent reporting date. Securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair value with unrealized holding gains and losses on these securities recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of related income tax. We had no available-for-sale securities at December 31, 2012 or 2011.

Securities classified as trading securities are carried at fair value with gains and losses on these securities recognized through other income (expense), net. Trading securities are comprised primarily of marketable equity mutual funds that approximate a portion of our liability under our Non-Qualified Savings and Investment Plan (“Non-Qualified Plan”). Trading securities totaled approximately $35.6 million and $32.8 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Property, plant, and equipment—Property, plant, and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided principally on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets (land improvements—20 to 35 years; buildings—20 to 50 years; and machinery and equipment—3 to 20 years). Gains and losses are reflected in income upon the sale or retirement of assets. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed as incurred. Expenditures that extend the useful lives of property, plant and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated new remaining life of the asset.
Impairment of property, plant, and equipment—Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the long-lived asset may not be recoverable. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If it is determined that an impairment loss has occurred, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.
Long-lived assets held for sale are reported at the lower of carrying value or fair value less cost to sell.

Capitalized software costs—Other assets include the capitalized cost of internal use software (including Internet websites). The assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and totaled $50.8 million and $33.8 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These software costs include significant purchases of software and internal and external costs incurred during the application development stage of software projects. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. For internal use software, the useful lives range from three to ten years. For Internet website costs, the estimated useful lives do not exceed three years.

Table of Contents

Goodwill and other intangible assets—Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is tested for impairment on an annual basis (or more frequently if impairment indicators arise). We have established October 31 as the date of our annual test for impairment of goodwill. Reporting units with goodwill are tested for impairment by first assessing qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, or based on management’s judgment, we determine it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a two-step impairment test is performed. The first step compares the fair value of the reporting unit (measured as the present value of expected future cash flows) to its carrying amount. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, a second step is performed. In this step, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to its assets and liabilities to determine the implied fair value of goodwill, which is used to measure the impairment loss. We have not recognized any impairment for the years ended December 31, 2012 or 2011, as the fair values of our reporting units with goodwill balances exceeded our carrying amounts. In addition, there were no negative conditions, or triggering events, that occurred in 2012 or 2011 requiring us to perform additional impairment reviews.

Our acquired intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which generally range from 7 to 40 years. None of our acquired intangible assets have indefinite lives. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the intangible asset may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of an intangible asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If it is determined that an impairment loss has occurred, the loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the intangible asset exceeds its fair value.
Fair value measurements—We record our financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market-corroborated inputs.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Income taxes—Current income taxes are provided on income reported for financial statement purposes, adjusted for transactions that do not enter into the computation of income taxes payable in the same year. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is established whenever management believes that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets may not be realizable.
U.S. income taxes are not provided on our equity in undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries or affiliates to the extent we have determined that the earnings are indefinitely reinvested. U.S. income taxes are provided on such earnings in the period in which we can no longer support that such earnings are indefinitely reinvested.
It is our policy to classify interest expense and penalties recognized on underpayments of income taxes as income tax expense.
Stock-based employee compensation—We measure stock-based compensation expense on restricted stock awards based on the market price at the grant date and the number of shares awarded. The stock-based compensation expense for each award is recognized ratably over the applicable service period, after taking into account estimated forfeitures.
Common stock held in employee benefit trust—Shares of our common stock are purchased by the plan administrator of the Non-Qualified Plan and placed in a trust owned by us. Purchased shares are recorded at cost and classified as a reduction of stockholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets.
Earnings per common share (“EPS”)—Basic EPS is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS gives effect to the potential dilution of earnings that could have occurred if additional shares were issued for stock option exercises and restricted stock under the treasury stock method. The treasury stock method assumes that proceeds that would be obtained upon exercise of common stock options and issuance of restricted stock are used to buy back outstanding common stock at the average market price during the period.

Table of Contents

Warranty obligations—We provide warranties of various lengths and terms to certain of our customers based on standard terms and conditions and negotiated agreements. Estimated cost of warranties are accrued at the time revenue is recognized for products where reliable, historical experience of warranty claims and costs exists or when additional specific obligations are identified. The obligation reflected in other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets is based on historical experience by product and considers failure rates and the related costs in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates or repair costs differ from our current estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required.
Foreign currency—Financial statements of operations for which the U.S. dollar is not the functional currency, and are located in non-highly inflationary countries, are translated into U.S. dollars prior to consolidation. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, while income statement accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for each period. For these operations, translation gains and losses are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity until the foreign entity is sold or liquidated. For operations in highly inflationary countries and where the local currency is not the functional currency, inventories, property, plant and equipment, and other non-current assets are converted to U.S. dollars at historical exchange rates, and all gains or losses from conversion are included in net income. Foreign currency effects on cash, cash equivalents and debt in hyperinflationary economies are included in interest income or expense.
Derivative instruments—Derivatives are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, with classification as current or non-current based upon the maturity of the derivative instrument. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are recorded in current earnings or deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), depending on the type of hedging transaction and whether a derivative is designated as, and is effective as, a hedge. Each instrument is accounted for individually and assets and liabilities are not offset.
Hedge accounting is only applied when the derivative is deemed to be highly effective at offsetting changes in anticipated cash flows of the hedged item or transaction. Changes in fair value of derivatives that are designated as cash flow hedges are deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) until the underlying transactions are recognized in earnings. At such time, related deferred hedging gains or losses are also recorded in operating earnings on the same line as the hedged item. Effectiveness is assessed at the inception of the hedge and on a quarterly basis. Effectiveness of forward contract cash flow hedges are assessed based solely on changes in fair value attributable to the change in the spot rate. The change in the fair value of the contract related to the change in forward rates is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Changes in this excluded component of the derivative instrument, along with any ineffectiveness identified, are recorded in operating earnings as incurred. We document our risk management strategy and hedge effectiveness at the inception of, and during the term of, each hedge.
We also use forward contracts to hedge foreign currency assets and liabilities, for which we do not apply hedge accounting. The changes in fair value of these contracts are recognized in other income (expense), net, as they occur and offset gains or losses on the remeasurement of the related asset or liability.
Cash flows from derivative contracts are reported in the consolidated statements of cash flows in the same categories as the cash flows from the underlying transactions.

NOTE 2. RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Effective January 1, 2012, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs” issued by the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”). This update clarifies the application of existing guidance and disclosure requirements, changes certain fair value measurement principles and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. The adoption of the update did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Effective January 1, 2012, we adopted ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” issued by the FASB. This update provides management the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. We elected the two-statement approach presenting other comprehensive income in a separate statement immediately following the statement of income. The updated requirements do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The adoption of the update concerns presentation only and did not have any financial impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Effective September 30, 2012, we adopted ASU No. 2012-02, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” issued by the FASB. This update provides management the option, prior to performing the quantitative impairment test under existing guidance, to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. The adoption of the amended guidance did not have an impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations, as we currently do not have indefinite-lived intangible assets.

NOTE 4. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
Schilling Robotics, LLC—On January 3, 2012, we exercised our option to purchase the remaining 55.0% of outstanding shares of Schilling Robotics, LLC (“Schilling Robotics”), a Delaware limited liability company, and closed the transaction on April 25, 2012. Schilling Robotics is a supplier of advanced robotic intervention products, including a line of remotely operated vehicle systems (“ROV”), manipulator systems and subsea control systems. The acquisition of the remaining interests in Schilling Robotics will allow us to grow in the expanding subsea environment, where demand for ROVs and the need for maintenance activities of subsea equipment is expected to increase.
Prior to April 25, 2012, we owned 45.0% of Schilling Robotics. Upon the closing of this transaction, we owned 100.0% of Schilling Robotics which is included among the consolidated subsidiaries reported in the Subsea Technologies segment. The acquisition-date fair value of our previously held equity interest in Schilling Robotics was $144.9 million with the fair value primarily estimated through an income approach valuation. We recorded a gain of $20.0 million in other income (expense), net on the consolidated statement of income related to the fair value remeasurement of our previously held equity interest in Schilling Robotics.
The purchase price with respect to the remaining outstanding shares was determined by applying the multiple of our market capital relative to our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) for the year ended December 31, 2011 (determined in accordance with the terms of the unitholders agreement), to the EBITDA generated by Schilling Robotics during the year ended December 31, 2011 (subject to certain adjustments in accordance with the terms of the unitholders agreement). The consideration for the remaining outstanding shares was paid in cash.
Control Systems International, Inc.—On April 30, 2012, we acquired 100.0% of Control Systems International, Inc. (“CSI”) which is included among the consolidated subsidiaries reported in the Energy Infrastructure segment. Our acquisition of CSI will enhance our automation and controls technologies and benefit production and processing businesses such as measurement solutions through comprehensive fuel terminal and pipeline automation systems. Additionally, the acquired technologies support our long-term strategy to expand our subsea production and processing systems.
Pure Energy Services Ltd.—On October 1, 2012, we acquired 100.0% of Pure Energy Services Ltd. (“Pure Energy”) which is included among the consolidated subsidiaries reported in the Surface Technologies segment. Based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and operating in multiple field locations in both Canada and the United States, Pure Energy is a provider of fracturing flowback services and wireline services. The acquisition of Pure Energy is expected to complement the existing products and services of our Surface Technologies segment and to create client value by providing an integrated well site solution.

We recognized $1.2 million of acquisition-related costs that were expensed in the year ended December 31, 2012 related to the Schilling Robotics, CSI and Pure Energy acquisitions. These costs were recognized as selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of income. Revenue and net income of Schilling Robotics, CSI and Pure Energy from the acquisition dates included in our consolidated statements of income were $94.6 million, $19.7 million and $67.3 million of revenue, respectively, and $3.1 million, $2.4 million and $2.7 million of net income, respectively.
Pro Forma Impact of Acquisitions (unaudited)
The following unaudited supplemental pro forma results present consolidated information as if the acquisitions had been completed as of January 1, 2011. The 2012 pro forma results include: (i) $10.1 million of amortization for acquired intangible assets, (ii) $10.7 million in inventory fair value step-up amortization for Schilling Robotics, and (iii) $1.2 million of acquisition-related costs. The pro forma results do not include any potential synergies, cost savings or other expected benefits of the acquisitions. Accordingly, the pro forma results should not be considered indicative of the results that would have occurred if the acquisitions had been consummated as of January 1, 2011, nor are they indicative of future results.

NOTE 8. SALE LEASEBACK TRANSACTION
In March 2007, we sold and leased back property in Houston, Texas, consisting of land, corporate offices and production facilities primarily related to the Subsea Technologies and Surface Technologies segments. We received net proceeds of $58.1 million in connection with the sale. The carrying value of the property sold was $20.3 million. We accounted for the transaction as a sale leaseback resulting in (i) first quarter 2007 recognition of $1.3 million of the $37.4 million gain on the transaction and (ii) the deferral of the remaining $36.1 million of the gain, which will be amortized to rent expense over a noncancellable ten-year lease term. The deferred gain is presented in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. The lease expires in 2022 and provides for two 5-year optional extensions as well as the option to terminate the lease in 2017, subject to a $3.3 million fee. Annual rent of $4.2 million escalates 2.0% per year. The lease was recorded as an operating lease.
NOTE 9. DEBT
Credit facility—On March 26, 2012, we entered into a new $1.5 billion revolving credit agreement (“credit agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The credit agreement is a five-year, revolving credit facility expiring in March 2017. Subject to certain conditions, at our request and with the approval of the Administrative Agent, the aggregate commitments under the credit agreement may be increased by an additional $500.0 million.
Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at a base rate or the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”), at our option, plus an applicable margin. Depending on our total leverage ratio, the applicable margin for revolving loans varies (i) in the case of LIBOR loans, from 1.125% to 1.750% and (ii) in the case of base rate loans, from 0.125% to 0.750%. The base rate is the highest of (1) the prime rate announced by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., (2) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.5% or (3) one-month LIBOR plus 1.0%.
In connection with the new credit agreement, we terminated and repaid all outstanding amounts under our previously existing $600.0 million five-year revolving credit agreement and our $350.0 million three-year revolving credit agreement.
Senior Notes—On September 21, 2012, we completed the public offering of $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.00% senior notes due October 2017 (the “2017 Notes”) and $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.45% senior notes due October 2022 (the “2022 Notes” and, collectively with the 2017 Notes, the “Senior Notes”). Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning April 1, 2013. Net proceeds from the offering of $793.8 million were used for the repayment of outstanding commercial paper and indebtedness under our revolving credit facility.
The terms of the Senior Notes are governed by the indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of September 21, 2012 between FMC Technologies and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture between FMC Technologies and the Trustee (the “First Supplemental Indenture”) relating to the issuance of the 2017 Notes and the Second Supplemental Indenture between FMC and the Trustee (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”) relating to the issuance of the 2022 Notes.
At any time prior to their maturity in the case of the 2017 Notes, and at any time prior to July 1, 2022, in the case of the 2022 Notes, we may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes at the redemption prices specified in the First Supplemental Indenture and Second Supplemental Indenture, respectively. At any time on or after July 1, 2022, we may redeem some or all of the 2022 Notes at the redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2022 Notes redeemed. The Senior Notes are our senior unsecured obligations. The Senior Notes will rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsubordinated debt, and will rank senior in right of payment to all of our future subordinated debt.
Commercial paper—Under our commercial paper program, we have the ability to access $1.0 billion of short-term financing through our commercial paper dealers subject to the limit of unused capacity of our revolving credit agreement. Commercial paper borrowings are issued at market interest rates. Commercial paper borrowings as of December 31, 2012, had a weighted average interest rate of 0.50%.
Term loan—In May 2010, we entered into a R$54.7 million term loan agreement in Brazil maturing on June 15, 2013, with Itaú BBA., as Administrative Agent. Under the loan agreement, interest accrues at an annual rate of 4.50%. Principal and interest are due at maturity.

Property financing—In September 2004, we entered into agreements for the sale and leaseback of an office building having a net book value of $8.5 million. Under the terms of the agreement, the building was sold for $9.7 million in net proceeds and leased back under a 10-year lease. We have subleased this property to a third party under a lease agreement that is being accounted for as an operating lease. We have accounted for the transaction as a financing transaction and are amortizing the related obligation using an effective annual interest rate of 5.37%. In addition, property financing includes our obligations under capital lease arrangements.
Uncommitted credit—We have uncommitted credit lines at many of our international subsidiaries for immaterial amounts. We utilize these facilities to provide a more efficient daily source of liquidity. The effective interest rates depend upon the local national market.

Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. We have reclassified and separately stated our deferred taxes related to Norwegian correction tax. In addition, we have reclassified certain deferred taxes related to the foreign exchange impact on certain foreign subsidiaries’ undistributed earnings not indefinitely reinvested. These reclassifications increased the 2011 deferred tax liability balance of property, plant, and equipment, goodwill and other assets by $32.3 million. This change only impacted the presentation of information in the above table and did not impact our financial position or results of operations for 2011.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the carrying amount of net deferred tax assets and the related valuation allowance included the impact of foreign currency translation adjustments. Included in our deferred tax assets at December 31, 2012 were U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards of $2.6 million, which, if not utilized, will begin to expire after 2021. Realization of these deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of sufficient U.S. taxable income prior to the above date. Based on long-term forecasts of operating results, management believes that it is more likely than not that domestic earnings over the forecast period will result in sufficient U.S. taxable income to fully realize these deferred tax assets. In its analysis, management has considered the effect of foreign deemed dividends and other expected adjustments to domestic earnings that are required in determining U.S. taxable income. Foreign earnings taxable to us as dividends, including deemed dividends for U.S. tax purposes, were $118.3 million, $169.3 million and $341.2 million, in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Also included in deferred tax assets are tax benefits related to net operating loss carryforwards attributable to foreign entities. If not utilized, these net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in 2013. Management believes it is more likely than not that we will not be able to utilize certain of these operating loss carryforwards before expiration; therefore, we have established a valuation allowance against the related deferred tax assets.
Current and non-current deferred income taxes by country included in our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012, were as follows:

At December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, there were $36.4 million, $42.2 million and $41.3 million, respectively, of unrecognized tax benefits that if recognized would affect the annual effective tax rate.
It is reasonably possible that within twelve months unrecognized tax benefits related to certain tax reporting positions taken in prior periods could decrease by up to $16.0 million, due to either the expiration of the statute of limitations in certain jurisdictions or the resolution of current income tax examinations, or both.

In November 2010, we resolved an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) audit of our 2004 and 2005 federal income tax returns with the IRS Appeals office. As a result of the resolution, we recorded a benefit in the fourth quarter of 2010 of approximately $27.6 million, representing the resolution of the 2004 and 2005 matter, as well as the associated impact of remeasuring reserves related to intercompany transfer pricing for all other open tax years.
Our U.S. federal income tax returns for our 2007, 2008, and 2009 tax years are under examination by the IRS. In conjunction with this examination, in January 2013 the IRS proposed adjustments to such years’ taxable income related to our treatment of intercompany transfer pricing. We are evaluating alternative responses to these proposed adjustments, and the ultimate outcome of this matter is uncertain. However, management believes we are adequately reserved for this matter as of December 31, 2012.
Tax years that remain subject to examination are years after 2002 for Norway, after 2007 for Brazil and after 2007 for the United States.
The effective income tax rate was different from the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate due to the following:

Our effective income tax rate for 2012 reflects U.S. tax law as it existed at December 31, 2012. On January 2, 2013, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (the “Taxpayer Act”) was signed into law. The Taxpayer Act retroactively reinstated and extended certain provisions of U.S. tax law. If these provisions of the Taxpayer Act had been enacted and effective as of December 31, 2012, our income tax expense would have been approximately $7.1 million lower than as reported, resulting in an effective income tax rate of approximately 27%. We expect to recognize this retroactive benefit in our income tax provision in the first quarter of 2013. In addition, the deferred tax asset attributable to our U.S. foreign tax credit carryforwards would have been increased by approximately $5.1 million. These additional foreign tax credits, if not utilized, would begin to expire after 2015.
We have provided U.S. income taxes on $1,105.2 million of cumulative undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries where we have determined that the foreign subsidiaries’ earnings are not indefinitely reinvested. No provision for U.S. income taxes has been recorded on earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are indefinitely reinvested. The cumulative balance of foreign earnings with respect to which no provision for U.S. income taxes has been recorded was $1,279.0 million at December 31, 2012. The amount of applicable U.S. income taxes that would be incurred if these earnings were repatriated is approximately $317.4 million.
We benefit from income tax holidays in Singapore and Malaysia which will expire after 2018 for Singapore and 2015 for Malaysia. For the year ended December 31, 2012, these tax holidays reduced our provision for income taxes by $9.6 million, or $0.04 per share on a diluted basis. In the first quarter of 2011, we recognized a retroactive benefit of approximately $7.3 million, or $0.03 per share on a diluted basis, related to tax holidays in Singapore which were retroactive to January 1, 2009.

NOTE 11. PENSION AND OTHER POST-RETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS
We have funded and unfunded defined benefit pension plans which provide defined benefits based on years of service and final average salary. In October 2009, the Board of Directors amended the U.S. Qualified and Non-Qualified Defined Benefit Pension Plans (“U.S. Pension Plans”) to freeze participation in the U.S. Pension Plans for all new nonunion employees hired on or after January 1, 2010, and current nonunion employees with less than five years of vesting service as of December 31, 2009. For current nonunion employees with less than five years of vesting service as of December 31, 2009, benefits accrued under the U.S. Pension Plans and earned as of that date were frozen based on credited service and pay as of December 31, 2009.
Foreign-based employees are eligible to participate in FMC Technologies-sponsored or government-sponsored benefit plans to which we contribute. Several of the foreign defined benefit pension plans sponsored by us provide for employee contributions; the remaining plans are noncontributory.
We have other post-retirement benefit plans covering substantially all of our U.S. employees who were hired prior to January 1, 2003. The post-retirement health care plans are contributory; the post-retirement life insurance plans are noncontributory.
We are required to recognize the funded status of defined benefit post-retirement plans as an asset or liability in the consolidated balance sheet and recognize changes in that funded status in comprehensive income in the year in which the changes occur. Further, we are required to measure the plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet. We have applied this guidance to our domestic pension and other post-retirement benefit plans as well as for many of our non-U.S. plans, including those in the United Kingdom, Norway, Germany, France and Canada. Pension expense measured in compliance with GAAP for the other non-U.S. pension plans is not materially different from the locally reported pension expense.

Our estimate of expected rate of return on plan assets is primarily based on the historical performance of plan assets, current market conditions, our asset allocation and long-term growth expectations.
Plan assets—Our pension investment strategy emphasizes maximizing returns consistent with minimizing risk. Excluding our international plans with insurance-based investments, 88% of our total pension assets represent the U.S. qualified plan, the U.K. plan and Canadian plan. These plans are primarily invested in equities to maximize the long-term returns of the plans. The investment managers of these assets, including the hedge funds and limited partnerships, use Graham and Dodd fundamental investment analysis to select securities that have a margin of safety between the price of the security and the estimated value of the security. This value-oriented approach tends to mitigate the risk of a large equity allocation.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the pension plan assets. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2012 and 2011.
Cash is valued at cost, which approximates fair value.
Equity securities are comprised of common stock, preferred stock and registered investment companies. The fair values of equity securities are valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the securities are traded. The fair values of registered investment companies are valued based on quoted market prices, which represent the net asset value (“NAV”) of shares held.
The fair values of hedge funds are valued using the NAV as determined by the administrator or custodian of the fund.
The fair values of limited partnerships are valued using the NAV as determined by the administrator or custodian of the fund.

Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. We have reclassified a plan asset from hedge funds to limited partnerships within the Level 3 classification. This reclassification increased the 2011 limited partnership balance by $4.3 million. This change only impacted the presentation of information in the above table within the Level 3 classification and did not impact our financial position or results of operations for 2011.

Contributions—We expect to contribute approximately $30.6 million to our international pension plans, representing primarily the U.K. and Norway qualified pension plans, and our Non-Qualified Defined Benefit Pension Plan in 2013. Additionally, we may make a discretionary contribution of approximately $19.0 million to our domestic qualified pension plan in 2013. All of the contributions are expected to be in the form of cash. In 2012 and 2011, we contributed $62.7 million and $114.1 million to the pension plans, respectively, which included $13.5 million and $51.0 million, respectively, to the U.S. Qualified Defined Benefit Pension Plan.

Savings plans—The FMC Technologies, Inc. Savings and Investment Plan (“Qualified Plan”), a qualified salary reduction plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, is a defined contribution plan. Additionally, we have a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, the Non-Qualified Plan, which allows certain highly compensated employees the option to defer the receipt of a portion of their salary. We match a portion of the participants’ deferrals to both plans. In October 2009, the Board of Directors approved amendments to the U.S. Qualified Plan and U.S. Non-Qualified Plan (“Amended Plans”). Under the Amended Plans, we are required to make a nonelective contribution every pay period to all new nonunion employees hired on or after January 1, 2010, and current nonunion employees with less than five years of vesting service as of December 31, 2009. The vesting schedule for the nonelective contribution under the Amended Plans is three years of vesting service with FMC Technologies.
Participants in the Non-Qualified Plan earn a return based on hypothetical investments in the same options as our 401(k) plan, including FMC Technologies stock. Changes in the market value of these participant investments are reflected as an adjustment to the deferred compensation liability with an offset to other income (expense), net. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, our liability for the Non-Qualified Plan was $34.4 million and $35.1 million, respectively, and was recorded in other non-current liabilities. We hedge the financial impact of changes in the participants’ hypothetical investments by purchasing the investments that the participants have chosen. With the exception of FMC Technologies stock, which is maintained at its cost basis, changes in the fair value of these investments are recognized as an offset to other income (expense), net. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had investments for the Non-Qualified Plan totaling $26.0 million and $26.2 million, respectively, at fair market value and FMC Technologies stock held in trust of $7.8 million and $5.8 million, respectively, at its cost basis.

66

Table of Contents

We recognized expense of $18.4 million, $14.6 million and $11.1 million, for matching contributions to these plans in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Additionally, we recognized expense of $11.8 million and $8.4 million for nonelective contributions in 2012 and 2011, respectively.
NOTE 12. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
We sponsor a stock-based compensation plan, which is described below, and have primarily granted awards in the form of nonvested stock awards (also known as restricted stock in the plan document) and stock options. The compensation expense for awards under the plan for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 is as follows:

Stock-based compensation expense is recognized over the lesser of the stated vesting period (three or four years) or the period until the employee reaches age 62 (the retirement eligible age under the plan). As of December 31, 2012, a portion of the stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding awards remains to be recognized in future periods. The compensation expense related to nonvested awards yet to be recognized totaled $37.2 million for restricted stock. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years.
Incentive compensation and stock plan—The Amended and Restated FMC Technologies, Inc. Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan (the “Plan”) provides certain incentives and awards to officers, employees, directors and consultants of FMC Technologies or its affiliates. The Plan allows our Board of Directors to make various types of awards to non-employee directors and the Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors to make various types of awards to other eligible individuals. Awards include management incentive awards, common stock, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and stock units. All awards are subject to the Plan’s provisions.
Under the Plan, 48.0 million shares of our common stock were authorized for awards. These shares are in addition to shares previously granted by FMC Corporation and converted into approximately 18.0 million shares of our common stock. As of December 31, 2012, 3.8 million shares were reserved to satisfy existing awards and 21.3 million shares were available for future awards.
Management incentive awards may be awards of cash, common stock options, restricted stock or a combination thereof. Grants of common stock options may be incentive and/or nonqualified stock options. Under the plan, the exercise price for options cannot be less than the market value of our common stock at the date of grant. Options vest in accordance with the terms of the award as determined by the Committee, which is generally after three years of service, and expire not later than 10 years after the grant date. Restricted stock grants specify any applicable performance goals, the time and rate of vesting and such other provisions as determined by the Committee. Restricted stock grants generally vest after three to four years of service. Additionally, most awards vest immediately upon a change of control as defined in the Plan agreement.
Stock-based compensation awards to non-employee directors consist of restricted stock units. Awards to non-employee directors generally vest on the date of our annual stockholder meeting following the date of grant. Stock units are not settled until a director ceases services to the Board of Directors. At December 31, 2012, outstanding awards to active and retired non-employee directors included 879 thousand stock units.
Restricted stock—A summary of the nonvested restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2012, and changes during the year is presented below:

For current year performance-based awards, the payout was dependent upon our performance relative to a peer group of companies with respect to earnings growth and return on investment for the year ended December 31, 2012. Based on results

67

Table of Contents

for the performance period, the payout will be 194 thousand shares at the vesting date in January 2015. Compensation cost was measured for 2012 based on the actual outcome of the performance conditions.
For current year market-based awards, the payout was contingent upon our performance relative to the same peer group of companies with respect to total stockholder return (“TSR”) for the year ended December 31, 2012. In 2012, the Committee modified the payout with respect to the TSR metric to make it possible to have a payout regardless of whether our TSR for the year is positive or negative. If our TSR for any given year is not positive, the payout with respect to TSR is limited to the target previously established by the Committee. Based on results for the performance period, the payout will be zero shares. Compensation cost for these awards was calculated using the grant date fair market value, as estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation.

The aggregate intrinsic value reflects the value to the option holders, or the difference between the market price as of December 31, 2012, and the exercise price of the option, which would have been received by the option holders had all options been exercised as of that date. While the intrinsic value is representative of the value to be gained by the option holders, this value is not indicative of compensation expense recorded by us. Compensation expense on stock options was calculated on the date of grant using the fair value of the options, as determined by a Black-Scholes option pricing model and the number of options granted, reduced by estimated forfeitures.
The intrinsic value of options exercised for years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $6.4 million, $11.8 million and $14.9 million, respectively.

The plan administrator of the Non-Qualified Plan purchases shares of our common stock on the open market. Such shares are placed in a trust owned by FMC Technologies.
As of August 2007, our Board of Directors had authorized the repurchase of up to 30 million shares of our outstanding common stock through open market purchases. As a result of the two-for-one stock split on March 31, 2011, the authorization was increased to 60 million shares. In December 2011, the Board of Directors authorized an extension of our repurchase program, adding 15 million shares, for a total of 75 million shares.
We repurchased $91.1 million, $114.0 million and $164.4 million of common stock during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, under the authorized repurchase program. As of December 31, 2012, approximately 15.1 million shares remained available for purchase under the current program which may be executed from time to time in the open market. We intend to hold repurchased shares in treasury for general corporate purposes, including issuances under our employee stock plans. Treasury shares are accounted for using the cost method.
On May 12, 2011, we amended our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 300 million to 600 million shares.
No cash dividends were paid on our common stock in 2012, 2011 or 2010.

NOTE 14. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We hold derivative financial instruments for the purpose of hedging the risks of certain identifiable and anticipated transactions. The types of risks hedged are those relating to the variability of future earnings and cash flows caused by movements in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We hold the following types of derivative instruments:
Foreign exchange rate forward contracts – The purpose of these instruments is to hedge the risk of changes in future cash flows of anticipated purchase or sale commitments denominated in foreign currencies. At December 31, 2012, we held the following material positions:

Foreign exchange rate instruments embedded in purchase and sale contracts – The purpose of these instruments is to match offsetting currency payments and receipts for particular projects, or comply with government restrictions on the currency used to purchase goods in certain countries.

The purpose of our foreign currency hedging activities is to manage the volatility associated with anticipated foreign currency purchases and sales created in the normal course of business. We primarily utilize forward exchange contracts with maturities of less than three years.
Our policy is to hold derivatives only for the purpose of hedging risks and not for trading purposes where the objective is solely to generate profit. Generally, we enter into hedging relationships such that changes in the fair values or cash flows of the transactions being hedged are expected to be offset by corresponding changes in the fair value of the derivatives. For derivative instruments that qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss of the derivative, which does not include the time value component of a forward currency rate, is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

Table of Contents

The following table of all outstanding derivative instruments is based on estimated fair value amounts that have been determined using available market information and commonly accepted valuation methodologies. Refer to Note 15 to these consolidated financial statements for further disclosures related to the fair value measurement process. Accordingly, the estimates presented may not be indicative of the amounts that we would realize in a current market exchange and may not be indicative of the gains or losses we may ultimately incur when these contracts settle or mature.

We recognized gains of $4.4 million and $0.9 million and losses of $2.6 million on cash flow hedges for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, due to hedge ineffectiveness as it was probable that the original forecasted transaction would not occur. Cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions, net of tax, resulted in accumulated other comprehensive gains of $10.0 million and losses of $16.7 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We expect to transfer an approximate $4.7 million gain from accumulated OCI to earnings during the next 12 months when the anticipated transactions actually occur. All anticipated transactions currently being hedged are expected to occur by the end of 2015.

Other income (expense), net, in the disclosure of gains and losses related to derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments has been revised to exclude transaction losses of $4.9 million in 2010. This change only impacted the presentation of information in the above table and did not impact our financial position or results of operations for 2010. We had a transaction loss of $5.0 million and gain of $5.1 million in 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Investments—The fair value measurement of our equity securities, fixed income fund and other investment assets is based on quoted prices that we have the ability to access in public markets. Our stable value fund is valued at the net asset value of the shares held at the end of the year which is based on the fair value of the underlying investments using information reported by the investment advisor at year-end.
Derivative financial instruments—We use the income approach as the valuation technique to measure the fair value of foreign currency derivative instruments on a recurring basis. This approach calculates the present value of the future cash flow by measuring the change from the derivative contract rate and the published market indicative currency rate, multiplied by the contract notional values. Credit risk is then incorporated by reducing the derivative’s fair value in asset positions by the result of multiplying the present value of the portfolio by the counterparty’s published credit spread. Portfolios in a liability position are adjusted by the same calculation; however, a spread representing our credit spread is used. Our credit spread, and the credit spread of other counterparties not publicly available are approximated by using the spread of similar companies in the same industry, of similar size and with the same credit rating.
At the present time, we have no credit-risk-related contingent features in our agreements with the financial institutions that would require us to post collateral for derivative positions in a liability position.
See Note 14 to these consolidated financial statements for additional disclosure related to derivative financial instruments.
Contingent earn-out consideration—We determined the fair value of the contingent earn-out consideration using a discounted cash flow model. The key assumptions used in applying the income approach are the expected profitability and debt, net of cash, of the acquired company during the earn-out period and the discount rate which approximates our debt credit rating. The fair value measurement is based upon significant inputs not observable in the market. Changes in the value of the contingent earn-out consideration are recorded as cost of service or other revenue in our consolidated statements of income.

Fair value of debt—At December 31, 2012, the fair value of our Senior Notes (based on Level 1 quoted market rates) was approximately $818.7 million as compared to the $800.0 million face value of the debt recorded in the consolidated balance sheet.
Other fair value disclosures—The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable, short-term debt, commercial paper, debt associated with our term loan, revolving credit facility as well as amounts included in other current assets and other current liabilities that meet the definition of financial instruments, approximate fair value.
Credit risk—By their nature, financial instruments involve risk including credit risk for non-performance by counterparties. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables and derivative contracts. We manage the credit risk on financial instruments by transacting only with what management believes are financially secure counterparties, requiring credit approvals and credit limits, and monitoring counterparties’ financial condition. Our maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty is limited to the amount drawn and outstanding on the financial instrument. Allowances for losses on trade receivables are established based on collectability assessments. We mitigate credit risk on derivative contracts by executing contracts only with counterparties that consent to a master netting agreement, which permits the net settlement of the gross derivative assets against the gross derivative liabilities.
NOTE 16. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
John Bean Technologies Corporation (“JBT”)—On July 31, 2008, the spin-off of our FoodTech and Airport Systems businesses to our stockholders was accomplished through a tax-free dividend of all outstanding shares of JBT, now an independent public company traded on the New York Stock Exchange (symbol “JBT”).
We entered into certain agreements which defined key provisions related to the spin-off and the relationship between the two companies after the spin-off, including, among others, a Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated July 31, 2008, between FMC Technologies and JBT (the “JBT Separation and Distribution Agreement”) and a tax sharing agreement, dated July 31, 2008, between FMC Technologies and JBT (the “JBT Tax Sharing Agreement”). The JBT Separation and Distribution Agreement required us to contribute certain business segments and their associated assets and liabilities to JBT. As a result of the contribution, we have no interest in JBT’s assets and business and, subject to certain exceptions described below, generally have no obligation with respect to JBT’s liabilities. Similarly, JBT has no interest in our assets and generally has no obligation with respect to our liabilities related to retained businesses after the distribution. We generally made no representations or warranties as to the assets, businesses or liabilities transferred or assumed as part of the contribution, and generally made the transfers on an “as is, where is” basis. JBT agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to cause us to be released from all of FMC Technologies’ obligations to guarantee or otherwise support any liabilities or obligations of JBT not later than July 31, 2010. All such obligations have expired, been released or are subject to a novation agreement. In addition, JBT agreed to reimburse and otherwise indemnify and hold us harmless for any and all costs and charges associated with, and such liabilities or obligations of, JBT or any guarantee to third parties not terminated prior to July 31, 2008.
As parties to the JBT Separation and Distribution Agreement, FMC Technologies and JBT each indemnify the other party from liabilities arising from their respective businesses or contracts, from liabilities arising from breach of the JBT Separation and Distribution Agreement and from certain claims made prior to the spin-off of JBT (Note 18).
The JBT Tax Sharing Agreement sets forth the responsibilities of the parties with respect to, among other things, liabilities for federal, state, local and foreign taxes for periods before and including the spin-off, the preparation and filing of tax returns for such periods and disputes with taxing authorities regarding taxes for such periods. The JBT Tax Sharing Agreement also provides that JBT will indemnify us for any tax liability we may incur as a result of any action taken by JBT after the spin-off that causes the distribution to not qualify as tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes under the terms of the private letter ruling received from the IRS. We will indemnify JBT against any tax liability in the case any action taken by us causes the distribution to not qualify as tax-free.

FMC Corporation—FMC Technologies was a subsidiary of FMC Corporation until the distribution of FMC Technologies’ common stock by FMC Corporation, which was completed on December 31, 2001.
In June 2001, FMC Corporation contributed to us substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the businesses that comprise FMC Technologies (the “Separation”). FMC Technologies and FMC Corporation entered into certain agreements that defined key provisions related to the Separation and the ongoing relationship between the two companies after the Separation. These agreements included a Separation and Distribution Agreement, dated May 31, 2001 (the “SDA”), and a Tax Sharing Agreement, which provided that FMC Technologies and FMC Corporation would make payments between them as appropriate to properly allocate tax liabilities for pre-Separation periods.
As parties to the SDA, FMC Corporation and FMC Technologies each indemnify the other party from liabilities arising from their respective businesses or contracts, from liabilities arising from breach of the SDA, from certain claims made prior to our spin-off from FMC Corporation and for claims related to discontinued operations (Note 18).

NOTE 18. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Commitments— We lease office space, manufacturing facilities and various types of manufacturing and data processing equipment. Leases of real estate generally provide for payment of property taxes, insurance and repairs by us. Substantially all leases are classified as operating leases for accounting purposes. Rent expense under operating leases amounted to $133.9 million, $100.6 million and $99.1 million in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
At December 31, 2012, future minimum rental payments under noncancellable operating leases were:

Contingent liabilities associated with guarantees—In the ordinary course of business with customers, vendors and others, we issue standby letters of credit, performance bonds, surety bonds and other guarantees. These financial instruments at December 31, 2012, represented $790.1 million for guarantees of our future performance and $69.4 million of bank guarantees and letters of credit to secure a portion of our existing financial obligations. The majority of these financial instruments expire within three years, and we expect to replace them through the issuance of new or the extension of existing letters of credit and surety bonds.
Management believes that the ultimate resolution of our known contingencies will not materially affect our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Table of Contents

Contingent liabilities associated with legal matters—We are involved in various pending or potential legal actions in the ordinary course of our business. Management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions, because of the inherent uncertainty of litigation. However, management believes that the most probable, ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In addition, under the SDA between FMC Corporation and FMC Technologies, which contains key provisions relating to our 2001 spin-off from FMC Corporation, FMC Corporation is required to indemnify us for certain claims made prior to the spin-off, as well as for other claims related to discontinued operations. We expect that FMC Corporation will bear responsibility for the majority of these claims. Under the JBT Separation and Distribution Agreement, which contains key provisions relating to the spin-off of the Airport and FoodTech businesses from us in 2008, JBT is required to indemnify us for certain claims made prior to the spin-off, as well as for other claims related to JBT products or business operations. Some of these claims may include those described in this paragraph involving FMC Corporation. While the ultimate responsibility for claims involving FMC Technologies, FMC Corporation or JBT cannot yet be determined due to lack of identification of the products or premises involved, we expect that FMC Corporation will bear responsibility for a majority of these claims initiated subsequent to the spin-off and that JBT will bear responsibility for other claims initiated subsequent to the spin-off.
Contingent liabilities associated with liquidated damages—Some of our contracts contain penalty provisions that require us to pay liquidated damages if we are responsible for the failure to meet specified contractual milestone dates and the applicable customer asserts a claim under these provisions. These contracts define the conditions under which our customers may make claims against us for liquidated damages. Based upon the evaluation of our performance and other legal analysis, management believes that we have appropriately accrued for probable liquidated damages at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and that the ultimate resolution of such matters will not materially affect our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
NOTE 19. BUSINESS SEGMENTS
We report the results of operations in the following segments: Subsea Technologies, Surface Technologies and Energy Infrastructure. Management’s determination of our reporting segments was made on the basis of our strategic priorities within each segment and corresponds to the manner in which our chief operating decision maker reviews and evaluates operating performance to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment.
Our reportable segments are:
Subsea Technologies—designs and manufactures products and systems and provides services used by oil and gas companies involved in deepwater exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas.
Surface Technologies—designs and manufactures systems and provides services used by oil and gas companies involved in land and offshore exploration and production of crude oil and gas; designs, manufactures and supplies technologically advanced high pressure valves and fittings for oilfield service companies; and also provides fracturing flowback and wireline services for exploration companies in the oil and gas industry
Energy Infrastructure—manufactures and supplies liquid and gas measurement and transportation equipment and systems to customers involved in the production, transportation and processing of crude oil, natural gas and petroleum-based refined products and the mining industry.
Total revenue by segment includes intersegment sales, which are made at prices approximating those that the selling entity is able to obtain on external sales. Segment operating profit is defined as total segment revenue less segment operating expenses. The following items have been excluded in computing segment operating profit: corporate staff expense, net interest income (expense) associated with corporate debt facilities, income taxes, and other revenue and other (expense), net.

NOTE 21. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On February 20, 2013, Petrobras notified us of its intention to exercise the cancellation provision of a contract for the delivery of subsea manifold systems. Under the contract, FMC Technologies is executing the delivery of four manifold systems out of a contractual commitment of six systems. The last two systems will not be delivered under the cancellation provision and will be eliminated from our backlog during the first quarter of 2013. The contract cancellation provision entitles FMC Technologies to recover its incurred costs on the cancelled scope of work, and we are presently collecting such information for presentation to the customer. We do not expect the contract cancellation to have a material impact on the 2013 results of operations.
