ITEM | 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA |
MANAGEMENTS REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management of Pentair Ltd. and its subsidiaries (the Company) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Companys internal control over financial reporting is 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. The Companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to 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 the 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 Companys 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 the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. In making this assessment, management used the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2012, the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
Management has excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Tyco Flow Control International Ltd. (Flow Control), which we merged with on September 28, 2012 and whose financial statements constitute 60 percent of total assets and 20 percent of total revenues in the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Our independent registered public accounting firm, Deloitte & Touche LLP, has issued an attestation report on the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. That attestation report is set forth immediately following this management report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Pentair Ltd.
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Pentair Ltd. and subsidiaries (the Company) 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. The Companys 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 Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. As described in Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Tyco Flow Control International Ltd. (Flow Control), which was acquired on September 28, 2012 and whose financial statements constitute 60 percent of total assets and 20 percent of total revenues on the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012. Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at Flow Control.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the companys principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the companys board of directors, management, and other personnel 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 companys 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 companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on the criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 of the Company and our report dated February 26, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and included an explanatory paragraph regarding changes in certain of the Companys methods of accounting for defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit costs.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Pentair Ltd.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pentair Ltd. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pentair Ltd. and subsidiaries at December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has elected to change its method of accounting for defined benefit pension and other post-retirement benefit plan costs in 2012. Such changes are reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on the criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 26, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Companys internal control over financial reporting.

Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
1. | Background and Nature of Operations |
Pentair Ltd., formerly known as Tyco Flow Control International Ltd. (as used prior to the Merger (as defined below), Flow Control), is a company organized under the laws of Switzerland. In these notes, the terms the Company, Pentair, us, we or our refer to Pentair Ltd. and its consolidated subsidiaries. Our business took its current form on September 28, 2012 as a result of a spin-off of Flow Control from its parent, Tyco International Ltd. (Tyco), and a reverse acquisition involving Pentair, Inc.
Prior to the spin-off, Tyco engaged in an internal restructuring whereby it transferred to Flow Control certain assets related to the flow control business of Tyco, and Flow Control assumed from Tyco certain liabilities related to the flow control business of Tyco. On September 28, 2012 prior to the Merger (as defined below), Tyco effected a spin-off of Flow Control through the pro-rata distribution of 100% of the outstanding common shares of Flow Control to Tycos shareholders (the Distribution), resulting in the distribution of 110,898,934 of our common shares to Tycos shareholders. Immediately following the Distribution, an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of ours merged with and into Pentair, Inc., with Pentair, Inc. surviving as an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of ours (the Merger). At the effective time of the Merger, each Pentair, Inc. common share was converted into the right to receive one of our common shares, resulting in 99,388,463 of our common shares being issued to Pentair, Inc. shareholders. The Merger is intended to be tax-free for U.S. federal income tax purposes. After the Merger, our common shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol PNR. Tyco equity-based awards held by Flow Control employees and certain Tyco employees and directors outstanding prior to the completion of the Distribution were converted in connection with the Distribution into equity-based awards with respect to our common shares and were assumed by us. Pentair, Inc. equity-based awards outstanding prior to the completion of the Merger were converted upon completion of the Merger into equity-based awards with respect to our common shares and were assumed by us.
The Merger was accounted for as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method of accounting with Pentair, Inc. treated as the acquirer, reflecting the control maintained by the executive management and board of directors of Pentair, Inc. after the Merger. As such, on the acquisition date of September 28, 2012, the assets and liabilities of Flow Control have been assessed at fair value and the assets and liabilities of Pentair, Inc. are carried over at historical cost. For periods prior to September 28, 2012, the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows include the historical results of Pentair, Inc. The consolidated financial statements include the results of Flow Control from the date of the Merger. Flow Controls net sales and net loss from continuing operations for the period from the acquisition date to December 31, 2012 were $886.5 million and $117.0 million, respectively.
Our common share balances prior to the Merger have been adjusted to reflect the one-for-one conversion of the Pentair, Inc. shares to Pentair Ltd. shares, with the difference in par value recorded in Capital contribution reserve.
Based on the price of Pentair, Inc. common stock and our common shares issued on the date of the Merger, the purchase price was composed of the following:
In thousands | ||||
Value of common shares issued to Tyco shareholders (1) |
$ | 4,811,363 | ||

Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
(2) | Equals cash paid to Tyco shareholders in lieu of 12,490 Pentair Ltd. fractional shares multiplied by the Merger date share price of $43.39. |
(3) | In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the fair value of replacement equity-based awards attributable to pre-combination service is recorded as part of the consideration transferred in the Merger, while the fair value of replacement equity-based awards attributable to post-combination service is recorded separately from the business combination and recognized as compensation cost in the post-acquisition period over the remaining service period. The fair value of our equivalent stock options was estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model utilizing various assumptions. |
During the fourth quarter of 2012, we recorded fair value adjustments to our preliminary purchase price allocation, which resulted in an increase to goodwill of $32.6 million.
The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated based on the estimated fair value of net assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the Merger. The preliminary purchase price allocation is subject to further refinement and may require significant adjustments to arrive at the final purchase price allocation. These adjustments will primarily relate to accounts receivable, inventories, property, plant and equipment, certain contingent liabilities and income tax-related items. We expect the purchase price allocation to be completed in the second quarter of 2013. There can be no assurance that such finalization will not result in material changes from the preliminary purchase price allocation. The purchase price is subject to a working capital and net indebtedness adjustment.
The following table summarizes our preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Merger:

The excess of purchase price over tangible net assets and identified intangible assets acquired was allocated to goodwill in the amount of $2.5 billion. Goodwill has been preliminarily allocated to our reporting segments as follows: $321.4 million to Water & Fluid Solutions, $1,342.6 million to Valves & Controls and $856.1 million to Technical Solutions. None of the goodwill recognized from the Merger is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. Goodwill recognized from the Merger reflects the value of future income resulting from synergies of our combined operations. Identifiable intangible assets acquired as part of the Merger were $1.4 billion and include $362.3 million of indefinite life trade name intangibles and the following definite-lived intangibles: $905.7 million of customer relationships with a weighted average useful life of 14.2 years, $115.9 million of proprietary technology with weighted average useful life of 13.7 years and $41.2 million of customer backlog with a weighted average useful life of less than one year.

2. | Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pentair and all subsidiaries, both the U.S. and non-U.S, which we control. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in companies of which we own 20% to 50% of the voting stock or have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the investee are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and as a result, our share of the earnings or losses of such equity affiliates is included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in United States dollars (USD) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Certain information described under Article 663-663h of the Swiss Code of Obligations has been presented in the Companys Swiss statutory financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Fiscal year
Our fiscal year ends on December 31. We report our interim quarterly periods on a 13-week basis ending on a Saturday.
Use of estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates include our accounting for valuation of long-lived assets, including goodwill and indefinite lived intangible

Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
assets, percentage of completion revenue recognition, assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions and the Merger, contingent liabilities, income taxes, and pension and other post-retirement benefits. Actual results could differ from our estimates.
Revenue recognition
Generally, we recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable and has been earned. Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; shipment or delivery has occurred (depending on the terms of the sale); our price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.
Generally, there is no post-shipment obligation on product sold other than warranty obligations in the normal and ordinary course of business. In the event significant post-shipment obligations were to exist, revenue recognition would be deferred until substantially all obligations were satisfied.
Percentage of completion
Revenue from certain long-term contracts is recognized over the contractual period under the percentage of completion method of accounting. Under this method, sales and gross profit are recognized as work is performed either based on the relationship between the actual costs incurred and the total estimated costs at completion (the cost-to-cost method) or based on efforts for measuring progress towards completion in situations in which this approach is more representative of the progress on the contract than the cost-to-cost method. Changes to the original estimates may be required during the life of the contract and such estimates are reviewed on a regular basis. Sales and gross profit are adjusted using the cumulative catch-up method for revisions in estimated total contract costs. These reviews have not resulted in adjustments that were significant to our results of operations. Estimated losses are recorded when identified. Claims against customers are recognized as revenue upon settlement.
We record costs and earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts within Other current assets and billings in excess of costs and earnings on uncompleted contracts within Other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Amounts included in Other current assets related to these contracts were $124.4 million and $54.7 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Amounts included in Other current liabilities related to these contracts were $61.1 million and $17.7 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Sales returns
The right of return may exist explicitly or implicitly with our customers. Generally, our return policy allows for customer returns only upon our authorization. Goods returned must be product we continue to market and must be in salable condition. Returns of custom or modified goods are normally not allowed. At the time of sale, we reduce revenue for the estimated effect of returns. Estimated sales returns include consideration of historical sales levels, the timing and magnitude of historical sales return levels as a percent of sales, type of product, type of customer and a projection of this experience into the future.
Pricing and sales incentives
We record estimated reductions to revenue for customer programs and incentive offerings including pricing arrangements, promotions and other volume-based incentives at the later of the date revenue is recognized or the incentive is offered. Sales incentives given to our customers are recorded as a reduction of revenue unless we (1) receive an identifiable benefit for the goods or services in exchange for the consideration and (2) we can reasonably estimate the fair value of the benefit received.
66
Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
The following represents a description of our pricing arrangements, promotions and other volume-based incentives:
| Pricing is established up front with our customers and we record sales at the agreed-upon net selling price. However, one of our businesses allows customers to apply for a refund of a percentage of the original purchase price if they can demonstrate sales to a qualifying original equipment manufacturer customer. At the time of sale, we estimate the anticipated refund to be paid based on historical experience and reduce sales for the probable cost of the discount. The cost of these refunds is recorded as a reduction in gross sales. |
| Our primary promotional activity is what we refer to as cooperative advertising. Under our cooperative advertising programs, we agree to pay the customer a fixed percentage of sales as an allowance that may be used to advertise and promote our products. The customer is generally not required to provide evidence of the advertisement or promotion. We recognize the cost of this cooperative advertising at the time of sale. The cost of this program is recorded as a reduction in gross sales. |
| Volume-based incentives involve rebates that are negotiated up front with the customer and are redeemable only if the customer achieves a specified cumulative level of sales or sales increase. Under these incentive programs, at the time of sale, we reforecast the anticipated rebate to be paid based on forecasted sales levels. These forecasts are updated at least quarterly for each customer and sales are reduced for the anticipated cost of the rebate. If the forecasted sales for a customer changes, the accrual for rebates is adjusted to reflect the new amount of rebates expected to be earned by the customer. |
Shipping and handling costs
Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling are recorded in Net sales in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Shipping and handling costs incurred by Pentair for the delivery of goods to customers are included in Cost of goods sold in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Research and development
We conduct research and development (R&D) activities in our own facilities, which consist primarily of the development of new products, product applications and manufacturing processes. We expense R&D costs as incurred. R&D expenditures during 2012, 2011 2010 were $93.6 million, $78.2 million and $67.2 million, respectively.
Cash equivalents
We consider highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Trade receivables and concentration of credit risk
We record an allowance for doubtful accounts, reducing our receivables balance to an amount we estimate is collectible from our customers. Estimates used in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts are based on current trends, aging of accounts receivable, periodic credit evaluations of our customers financial condition, and historical collection experience. We generally do not require collateral. No customer receivable balances exceeded 10% of total net receivable balances as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with substantially all inventories recorded using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost method and with an insignificant amount of inventories located outside the United States recorded using a moving average cost method which approximates FIFO.
67
Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
Property, plant and equipment, net
Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost. We compute depreciation by the straight-line method based on the following estimated useful lives:
Years | ||||
Land improvements |
5 to 20 | |||
Buildings and leasehold improvements |
5 to 50 | |||
Machinery and equipment |
3 to 15 |
Significant improvements that add to productive capacity or extend the lives of properties are capitalized. Costs for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. When property is retired or otherwise disposed of, the recorded cost of the assets and their related accumulated depreciation are removed from the Consolidated Balance Sheets and any related gains or losses are included in income.
We review the recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used, such as property, plant and equipment, when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate the carrying value of the asset or asset group may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on our ability to recover the carrying value of the asset or asset group from the expected future pre-tax cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset or asset group, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between estimated fair value and carrying value. Impairment losses on long-lived assets held for sale are determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost to dispose of the assets. The measurement of impairment requires us to estimate future cash flows and the fair value of long-lived assets. There was no material impairment charge recorded related to long-lived assets.
Goodwill and identifiable intangible assets
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of acquired businesses over the net of the fair value of identifiable tangible net assets and identifiable intangible assets purchased and liabilities assumed.
Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and is tested for impairment more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment test is performed using a two-step process. In the first step, the fair value of each reporting unit is compared with the carrying amount of the reporting unit, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying amount of the reporting unit there is an indication that goodwill impairment exists and a second step must be completed in order to determine the amount of the goodwill impairment, if any that should be recorded. In the second step, an impairment loss is recognized for any excess of the carrying amount of the reporting units goodwill over the implied fair value of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation.
The fair value of each reporting unit is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis and market approach. Projecting discounted future cash flows requires us to make significant estimates regarding future revenues and expenses, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital and the appropriate discount rate. Use of the market approach consists of comparisons to comparable publicly-traded companies that are similar in size and industry. Actual results may differ from those used in our valuations. This non-recurring fair value measurement is a Level 3 measurement under the fair value hierarchy described below.
In developing our discounted cash flow analysis, assumptions about future revenues and expenses, capital expenditures and changes in working capital, are based on our annual operating plan and long-term business plan
68
Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
for each of our reporting units. These plans take into consideration numerous factors including historical experience, anticipated future economic conditions, changes in raw material prices and growth expectations for the industries and end markets we participate in. These assumptions are determined over a five year long-term planning period. The five year growth rates for revenues and operating profits vary for each reporting unit being evaluated. Revenues and operating profit beyond 2019 are projected to grow at a perpetual growth rate of 3.0%.
Discount rate assumptions for each reporting unit take into consideration our assessment of risks inherent in the future cash flows of the respective reporting unit and our weighted-average cost of capital. We utilized discount rates ranging from 12.0% to 13.0% in determining the discounted cash flows in our fair value analysis.
In estimating fair value using the market approach, we identify a group of comparable publicly-traded companies for each reporting segment that are similar in terms of size and product offering. These groups of comparable companies are used to develop multiples based on total market-based invested capital as a multiple of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). We determine our estimated values by applying these comparable EBITDA multiples to the operating results of our reporting units. The ultimate fair value of each reporting unit is determined considering the results of both valuation methods.
Impairment charge
We completed step one of our annual goodwill impairment evaluation during the fourth quarter for 2012 with each reporting units fair value exceeding its carrying value. Accordingly, step two of the impairment analysis was not required for 2012.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $200.5 million in Water & Fluid Solutions as a result of our annual goodwill impairment test. The impairment charge resulted from changes in our forecasts in light of economic conditions and continued softness in the end-markets served by residential water treatment components.
Identifiable intangible assets
Our primary identifiable intangible assets include: customer relationships, trade names and trademarks, proprietary technology, backlog and patents. Identifiable intangibles with finite lives are amortized and those identifiable intangibles with indefinite lives are not amortized. Identifiable intangible assets that are subject to amortization are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Identifiable intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events warrant. We completed our annual impairment test during the fourth quarter for those identifiable assets not subject to amortization. As a result, an impairment charge of $60.7 million was recorded in 2012, related to trade names. These charges were recorded in Impairment of trade names and goodwill in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). There was no impairment charge recorded in 2011 or 2010 for identifiable intangible assets.
The impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the trade name with its carrying value. Fair value is measured using the relief-from-royalty method. This method assumes the trade name has value to the extent that the owner is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from them. This method requires us to estimate the future revenue for the related brands, the appropriate royalty rate and the weighted average cost of capital. The non-recurring fair value measurement is a Level 3 measurement under the fair value hierarchy described below. The impairment charge recorded in 2012 was the result of a rebranding strategy implemented in the fourth quarter of 2012.
At December 31, 2012 our goodwill and intangible assets were $6,804.2 million and represented 58% of our total assets. If we experience future declines in sales and operating profit or do not meet our operating forecasts, we

Notes to consolidated financial statements
may be subject to future impairments. Additionally, changes in assumptions regarding the future performance of our businesses, increases in the discount rate used to determine the discounted cash flows of our businesses or significant declines in our share price or the market as a whole could result in additional impairment indicators. Because of the significance of our goodwill and intangible assets, any future impairment of these assets could have a material adverse effect on our financial results.
Equity and cost method investments
We have investments that are accounted for using the equity method. Our proportionate share of income or losses from investments accounted for under the equity method is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). We write down or write off an investment and recognize a loss when events or circumstances indicate there is impairment in the investment that is other-than-temporary. This requires significant judgment, including assessment of the investees financial condition and in certain cases the possibility of subsequent rounds of financing, as well as the investees historical and projected results of operations and cash flows. If the actual outcomes for the investees are significantly different from projections, we may incur future charges for the impairment of these investments. Our investment in and loans to equity method investees was $10.3 million and $6.0 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, net of our proportionate share of the results of their operations.
Investments for which we do not have significant influence are accounted for under the cost method. The aggregate balance of these investments was $6.9 million at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.
Income taxes
We use the asset and liability approach to account for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period when the change is enacted. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Changes in valuation allowances from period to period are included in our tax provision in the period of change. We recognize the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.
Environmental
We recognize environmental clean-up liabilities on an undiscounted basis when a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Such liabilities generally are not subject to insurance coverage. The cost of each environmental clean-up is estimated by engineering, financial and legal specialists based on current law. Such estimates are based primarily upon the estimated cost of investigation and remediation required and the likelihood that, where applicable, other potentially responsible parties (PRPs) will be able to fulfill their commitments at the sites where Pentair may be jointly and severally liable. The process of estimating environmental clean-up liabilities is complex and dependent primarily on the nature and extent of historical information and physical data relating to a contaminated site, the complexity of the site, the uncertainty as to what remedy and technology will be required and the outcome of discussions with regulatory agencies and other PRPs at multi-party sites. In future periods, new laws or regulations, advances in clean-up technologies and additional information about the ultimate clean-up remedy that is used could significantly change our estimates. Accruals for environmental liabilities are included in Other current liabilities and Other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Notes to consolidated financial statements
Asbestos Matters
We recognize asbestos-related liabilities on an undiscounted basis when a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Certain of these liabilities are subject to insurance coverage. Our subsidiaries and numerous other companies are named as defendants in personal injury lawsuits based on alleged exposure to asbestos-containing materials. These cases typically involve product liability claims based primarily on allegations of manufacture, sale or distribution of industrial products that either contained asbestos or were attached to or used with asbestos-containing components manufactured by third-parties. The process of estimating asbestos-related liabilities and the corresponding insurance recoveries receivable is complex and dependent primarily on our historical claim experience, estimates of potential future claims, our legal strategy for resolving these claims, the availability of insurance coverage, and the solvency and creditworthiness of insurers. Accruals for asbestos-related liabilities are included in Other non-current liabilities and the estimated receivable for insurance recoveries are recorded in Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Insurance subsidiary
We insure certain general and product liability, property, workers compensation and automobile liability risks through our regulated wholly-owned captive insurance subsidiary, Penwald Insurance Company (Penwald). Reserves for policy claims are established based on actuarial projections of ultimate losses. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, reserves for policy claims were $42.9 million ($13.3 million included in Other current liabilities and $29.6 million included in Other non-current liabilities) and $44.3 million ($13.3 million included in Other current liabilities and $31.0 million included in Other non-current liabilities), respectively.
Stock-based compensation
We account for share-based compensation awards on a fair value basis. The estimated grant date fair value of each option award is recognized in income on an accelerated basis over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period). The estimated fair value of each option award is calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. From time to time, we have elected to modify the terms of the original grant. These modified grants are accounted for as a new award and measured using the fair value method, resulting in the inclusion of additional compensation expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss). Restricted share awards and units are recorded as compensation cost on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods based on the market value on the date of grant.
Earnings (loss) per common share
Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Pentair Ltd. by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to Pentair Ltd. by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding including the dilutive effects of common share equivalents.
Derivative financial instruments
We recognize all derivatives, including those embedded in other contracts, as either assets or liabilities at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. If the derivative is designated and is effective as a cash-flow hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) as a separate component of equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) when the hedged item affects earnings. If the underlying hedged transaction ceases to exist or if the hedge becomes ineffective, all changes in fair value of the related derivatives that have not been settled are recognized in current earnings. For a derivative that is not designated as or does not qualify as a hedge, changes in fair value are reported in earnings immediately.
We use derivative instruments for the purpose of hedging interest rate and currency exposures, which exist as part of ongoing business operations. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or
71
Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
speculative purposes. All other contracts that contain provisions meeting the definition of a derivative also meet the requirements of and have been designated as, normal purchases or sales. Our policy is not to enter into contracts with terms that cannot be designated as normal purchases or sales. From time to time, we may enter in to short duration foreign currency contracts to hedge foreign currency risks.
Fair value measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified using the following hierarchy, which is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation as of the measurement date:
Level 1: Valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2: Valuation is based on inputs such as quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3: Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurement.
In making fair value measurements, observable market data must be used when available. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Foreign currency translation
The financial statements of subsidiaries located outside of the U.S. are measured using the local currency as the functional currency, except for certain corporate entities outside of the U.S. which are measured using USD. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at the rates of exchange at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at average monthly rates of exchange. The resultant translation adjustments are included in AOCI, a separate component of equity.
Discontinued Operations
In 2010, we were notified of a product recall required by our former Tools Group (which was sold to Black and Decker Corporation in 2004 and treated as a discontinued operation). Under the terms of the sale agreement we are liable for a portion of the product recall costs. We recorded a liability of $3.2 million ($2.0 million net of tax) in 2010 representing our estimate of the potential cost for products sold prior to the date of sale of the Tools Group associated with this recall. In addition, we received the remaining escrow balances from our sale of Lincoln Industrial of $0.5 million, and we reversed tax reserves of $1.0 million due to the expiration of various statues of limitations.
New accounting standards
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance to improve the consistency of fair value measurement and disclosure requirements between GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The provisions of this guidance change certain of the fair value principles related to the highest and best use premise, the consideration of blockage factors and other premiums and discounts, and the measurement of financial instruments held in a portfolio and instruments classified within equity. Further, the guidance provides additional disclosure requirements surrounding Level 3 fair value measurements, the uses of nonfinancial assets in certain circumstances and identification of the level in the fair value hierarchy used for
72
Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
assets and liabilities which are not recorded at fair value, but where fair value is disclosed. This guidance was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
In June 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance surrounding the presentation of comprehensive income, with an objective of increasing the prominence of items reported in Other Comprehensive Income (OCI). This guidance provides entities with the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of OCI in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance, other than certain provisions pertaining to the reclassification of items out of OCI that were deferred, was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. We adopted this guidance as of January 1, 2012, and have presented total comprehensive income (loss) in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
In September 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to an existing accounting standard, which provides entities an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing on goodwill is necessary. Specifically, an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the current two-step test. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required. The adoption of this guidance did not impact our financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which expanded and enhanced the existing disclosure requirements related to multi-employer pension and other postretirement benefit plans. The amendments require additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures to provide more detailed information regarding these plans including: the significant multi-employer plans in which we participate, the level of our participation and contributions with respect to such plans, the financial health of such plans and an indication of funded status. These disclosures are intended to provide users of financial statements with a better understanding of the employers involvement in multi-employer benefit plans. The disclosure provisions of the guidance were adopted concurrent with the pension disclosures associated with our annual valuation process during the fourth quarter of 2012. We concluded that our participation in any individual multi-employer plan was not significant.
In July 2012, the FASB issued an amendment to an existing accounting standard, which provides entities an option to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether further impairment testing on indefinite-lived intangible assets is necessary. Specifically, an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test. If an entity believes, as a result of its qualitative assessment, that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset is less than its carrying amount, the quantitative impairment test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required. This guidance is effective for annual and interim indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, and early adoption is permitted. We believe that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.
In February 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance surrounding the presentation of items reclassified from OCI to net income. This guidance requires entities to disclose, either in the notes to the consolidated financial statements or parenthetically on the face of the statement that reports comprehensive income, items reclassified out of AOCI and into net income in their entirety and the effect of the reclassification on each affected net income line item. In addition, for AOCI reclassification items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net income, a cross reference to other required GAAP disclosures is required. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2012. We believe that the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

3. | Change in Accounting Principle |
During the fourth quarter of 2012, we changed our method of recognizing actuarial gains and losses for all of our pension and other post-retirement plans. Historically, we recognized actuarial gains and losses as a component of AOCI in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortized them into our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) over the average future service period of the active employees of these plans to the extent such gains and losses were outside of a corridor. We elected to immediately recognize actuarial gains and losses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the basis that it is preferable to accelerate the recognition of such gains and losses into income rather than to delay such recognition. Additionally, for purposes of calculating the expected return on plan assets, we will no longer use a calculated value for the market-related valuation of plan assets, but instead will use the actual fair value of our plan assets. These changes will improve transparency in our operating results by more quickly recognizing the effects of external conditions on our plan obligations, investments and assumptions. We applied these changes retrospectively to all periods presented. The cumulative effect of the change on retained earnings as of January 1, 2010 was a reduction of $58.9 million, with an offset to AOCI. The annual recognition of actuarial losses totaled $146.6 million, $65.7 million and $13.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. This change did not have an impact on cash provided by operating activities for any period presented.
The following table presents our results under our historical method and our results had we applied these new methods for the periods presented:

4. | Other Acquisitions |
Other material acquisitions
In May 2011, we acquired, as part of Water & Fluid Solutions, the Clean Process Technologies (CPT) division of privately held Norit Holding B.V. for $715.3 million (502.7 million translated at the May 12, 2011 exchange rate). CPTs results of operations have been included in our consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. CPT is a global leader in membrane solutions and clean process technologies in the high growth water and beverage filtration and separation segments. CPT provides sustainable purification systems and solutions for desalination, water reuse, industrial applications and beverage segments that effectively address the increasing challenges of clean water scarcity, rising energy costs and pollution. CPTs product offerings include innovative ultrafiltration and nanofiltration membrane technologies, aseptic valves, CO2 recovery and control systems and specialty pumping equipment. Based in the Netherlands, CPT has broad sales diversity with the majority of revenues generated in European Union and Asia-Pacific countries.
The fair value of the business acquired was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value acquired over the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed is reflected as goodwill. Goodwill recorded as part of the purchase price allocation was $451.8 million, none of which is tax deductible. Identifiable intangible assets acquired as part of the acquisition were $197.2 million, including definite-lived intangibles, such as customer relationships and proprietary technology with a weighted average amortization period of approximately 10 years.
Pro forma results of material acquisitions
The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial results of operations are presented as if the Merger described in Note 1 and the CPT acquisition described above were completed at the beginning of the comparable annual reporting period from the date of the transaction. Specifically, the unaudited pro forma results give effect as though the Merger was consummated on January 1, 2011 and as though the CPT acquisition was consummated on January 1, 2010.

The 2011 unaudited pro forma net income includes the impact of $262.0 million in non-recurring items related to acquisition date fair value adjustments to inventory and customer backlog, $21.8 million of change of control costs and $8.7 million of transaction costs associated with the Merger. The 2011 unaudited pro forma net income excludes the impact of $12.9 million in non-recurring items related to acquisition date fair value adjustments to inventory and customer backlog and $8.0 million, respectively, of transaction costs associated with the CPT acquisition.
The 2012 unaudited pro forma net income excludes the impact $57.3 million of transaction related costs, $21.8 million of change of control costs and $178.1 million of non-recurring items related to acquisition date fair value adjustments to inventory and customer backlog associated with the Merger.
The pro forma consolidated financial information was prepared for comparative purposes only and includes certain adjustments, as noted above. The adjustments are estimates based on currently available information and actual amounts may have differed materially from these estimates.

Other acquisitions
On October 4, 2012, we acquired, as part of Valves & Controls, the remaining 25% equity interest in Pentair Middle East Holding S.a.R.L. (KEF), a privately held company, for $100 million in cash. Prior to the acquisition, we held a 75% equity interest in KEF, a vertically integrated valve manufacturer in the Middle East. There was no pro forma impact from this acquisition as the results of KEF were consolidated into Flow Controls financial statements prior to acquiring the remaining 25% interest in KEF.
Additionally, during 2012, we completed other small acquisitions as part of Water & Fluid Solutions with purchase prices totaling $121.2 million in cash, net of cash acquired. Total goodwill recorded as part of the purchase price allocations was $80.9 million, none of which is tax deductible. During 2011, we completed other small acquisitions as part of Water & Fluid Solutions with purchase prices totaling $21.6 million, consisting of $17.8 million in cash and $3.8 million as notes payable. Total goodwill recorded as part of the purchase price allocations was $14.4 million, none of which is tax deductible. The pro forma impact of these acquisitions was not material.
Total transaction costs related to acquisition activities for the year ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $57.3 million and $8.2 million, respectively, and were expensed as incurred and recorded in Selling, general and administrative in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

The 2012 initiatives included the reduction in hourly and salaried headcount of approximately 1,000 employees, which included 500 in Water & Fluid Solutions, 300 in Valves & Controls and 200 in Technical Solutions. The 2011 initiatives included the reduction in hourly and salaried headcount of approximately 210 employees, which included 160 in Water & Fluid Solutions and 50 in Technical Solutions.
Restructuring related costs included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) included costs for severance and other restructuring costs as follows:

In December 2012, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Pentair Finance S.A. (PFSA), completed an exchange offer (the Exchange Offer) pursuant to which it exchanged $373 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.00% Senior Notes due 2021 of Pentair, Inc., a wholly-owned, indirect subsidiary of the Company (the 2021 Notes) for a like amount of new 5.00% Senior Notes due 2021 of PFSA (the New 2021 Notes) plus $5.6 million in

Notes to consolidated financial statements
transaction-related costs. Upon completion of the Exchange Offer, $127 million in aggregate principal amount of 2021 Notes remained outstanding. The remaining 2021 Notes and New 2021 Notes are guaranteed as to payment by Pentair Ltd.
In November 2012, PFSA completed a private offering of $350 million aggregate principal amount of 1.35% Senior Notes due 2015 (the 2015 Notes) and $250 million aggregate principal amount of 2.65% Senior Notes due 2019 (the 2019 Notes and, collectively, the 2015/2019 Notes), which are guaranteed as to payment by Pentair Ltd. In certain circumstances, PFSA may be required to pay additional interest on the 2015/2019 Notes. We used the net proceeds from the sale of the 2015/2019 Notes to repay commercial paper and for general corporate purposes.
In October 2012, we redeemed the remaining outstanding aggregate principal of our 5.65% fixed rate senior notes due 2013-2017 totaling $400 million and our 1.05% floating rate senior notes due 2013 totaling $100 million (the Fixed/Floating Rate Notes). The redemptions included make-whole premiums of $65.8 million. Concurrent with the redemption of the Fixed/Floating Rate Notes, we terminated a related interest rate swap that was designated as a cash flow hedge, which resulted in the reclassification of $3.4 million of previously unrecognized variable to fixed swap losses from AOCI to earnings in October 2012. All costs associated with the redemption were recorded as a Loss on the early extinguishment of debt including $0.6 million of unamortized deferred financing costs.
In September 2012, PFSA, completed a private offering of $550 million aggregate principal amount of 3.15% Senior Notes due 2022 (the 2022 Notes) and $350 million aggregate principal amount of 1.875% Senior Notes due 2017 (the 2017 Notes and, collectively, the 2017/2022 Notes), which are guaranteed as to payment by Pentair Ltd. In certain circumstances, PFSA may be required to pay additional interest on the 2017/2022 Notes. The 2017/2022 Notes remained outstanding after the Merger. A portion of the net proceeds from the 2017/2022 Notes offering were used to repay $435 million to Tyco in conjunction with the Distribution and the Merger.
In September 2012, Pentair, Inc. entered into a credit agreement providing for an unsecured, committed revolving credit facility (the Credit Facility) with initial maximum aggregate availability of up to $1,450 million. The Credit Facility replaced Pentair, Inc.s $700 million Former Credit Facility (as defined below). The Credit Facility matures in September 2017. Upon the completion of the Merger, Pentair Ltd. became the guarantor under the Credit Facility and PFSA and certain other of our subsidiaries became affiliate borrowers under the Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Credit Facility generally bear interest at a variable rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus a specified margin based upon PFSAs credit ratings. PFSA must also pay a facility fee ranging from 10.0 to 30.0 basis points per annum (based upon PFSAs credit ratings) on the amount of each lenders commitment.
In May 2011, Pentair, Inc. completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes. Pentair, Inc. used the net proceeds from the offering of the 2021 Notes to finance in part the CPT acquisition in 2011. The 2021 Notes which remain outstanding subsequent to the Exchange Offer are guaranteed as to payment by Pentair Ltd.
In April 2011, Pentair, Inc. entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement that provided for an unsecured, committed revolving credit facility (the Former Credit Facility) of up to $700 million, with multi-currency sub-facilities to support investments outside the U.S. Borrowings under the Former Credit Facility bore interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%. We used borrowings under the Former Credit Facility to fund a portion of the CPT acquisition in 2011 and to repay $105 million of matured senior notes in May 2012. The Former Credit Facility was terminated in September 2012 in connection with the Merger and replaced by the Credit Facility, at which time the subsidiary guarantees in place under the Former Credit Facility ceased to exist.

PFSA is authorized to sell short-term commercial paper notes to the extent availability exists under the Credit Facility. PFSA uses the Credit Facility as back-up liquidity to support 100% of commercial paper outstanding. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had $424.7 million and $3.5 million, respectively, of commercial paper outstanding, all of which was classified as long-term as we have the intent and the ability to refinance such obligations on a long-term basis under the Credit Facility.
We used borrowings under the Credit Facility and proceeds from the 2017/2022 Notes offering, to repay the Former Credit Facility and to pay other fees and expenses in connection with the Merger. Total availability under the Credit Facility was $1,025.3 million as of December 31, 2012, which was not limited by any covenants contained in the Credit Facilitys credit agreement. Subsequent to the Merger, we used the remaining proceeds from the 2017/2022 Notes offering and issuances of commercial paper to redeem the Fixed/Floating Rate Notes as discussed above, to repurchase shares in conjunction with our share repurchase as discussed in Note 15 and to purchase the remaining 25% interest in KEF for $100 million as discussed in Note 4.
Our debt agreements contain certain financial covenants, the most restrictive of which are in the Credit Facility, including that we may not permit (i) the ratio of our consolidated debt plus synthetic lease obligations to our consolidated net income (excluding, among other things, non-cash gains and losses) before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash share-based compensation expense, and up to $40 million of costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger (EBITDA) for the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended (the Leverage Ratio) to exceed 3.50 to 1.00 on the last day of each fiscal quarter, and (ii) the ratio of our EBITDA for the four consecutive fiscal quarters then ended to our consolidated interest expense, including consolidated yield or discount accrued as to outstanding securitization obligations (if any), for the same period to be less than 3.00 to 1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter. For purposes of the Leverage Ratio, the Credit Facility provides for the calculation of EBITDA giving pro forma effect to the Merger and certain acquisitions, divestitures and liquidations during the period to which such calculation relates. As of December 31, 2012, we were in compliance with all financial covenants in our debt agreements.
In addition to the Credit Facility, we have various other credit facilities with an aggregate availability of $89.0 million, of which $3.0 million was outstanding at December 31, 2012. Borrowings under these credit facilities bear interest at variable rates.
Debt outstanding at December 31, 2012 matures on a calendar year basis as follows:

As part of the Merger and CPT acquisition, we assumed capital lease obligations related primarily to land and buildings. As of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the recorded values of the assets acquired under those capital leases were $35.5 million and $22.7 million, respectively, less accumulated amortization of $6.0 million and $5.1 million, respectively, all of which were included in Property, plant and equipment, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Capital lease obligations consist of total future minimum lease payments of $26.1 million less the imputed interest of $2.3 as of December 31, 2012.

12. | Derivatives and Financial Instruments |
Derivative financial instruments
We are exposed to market risk related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates on our floating rate indebtedness. To manage the volatility related to these exposures, we periodically enter into a variety of derivative financial instruments. Our objective is to reduce, where it is deemed appropriate to do so, fluctuations in earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency rates and interest rates. The derivative contracts contain credit risk to the extent that our bank counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. The amount of such credit risk is generally limited to the unrealized gains, if any, in such contracts. Such risk is minimized by limiting those counterparties to major financial institutions of high credit quality.
Interest rate swaps
During 2012 and 2011, we used floating to fixed rate interest rate swaps to mitigate our exposure to future changes in interest rates related to our floating rate indebtedness. We designated these interest rate swap arrangements as cash flow hedges. As a result, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps were recorded in AOCI on the Consolidated Balance Sheets throughout the contractual term of each of the interest rate swap arrangements.
During the year ended December 31, 2012, all of our interest rate swaps expired or were terminated and, as a result, we had no outstanding interest rate swap arrangements at December 31, 2012.
In August 2007, we entered into a $105 million interest rate swap agreement with a major financial institution to exchange variable rate interest payment obligations for a fixed rate obligation without the exchange of the underlying principal amounts in order to manage interest rate exposures. The effective date of the swap was August 30, 2007. The swap agreement had a fixed interest rate of 4.89% and expired in May 2012. The fixed interest rate of 4.89% plus the .50% interest rate spread over LIBOR resulted in an effective fixed interest rate of 5.39%. The fair value of the swap was $1.7 million at December 31, 2011 and was recorded in Other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In September 2005, we entered into a $100 million interest rate swap agreement with several major financial institutions to exchange variable rate interest payment obligations for fixed rate obligations without the exchange of the underlying principal amounts in order to manage interest rate exposures. The effective date of the fixed rate swap was April 25, 2006. The swap agreement has a fixed interest rate of 4.68% and was set to expire in July 2013. The fixed interest rate of 4.68% plus the .60% interest rate spread over LIBOR results in an effective fixed interest rate of 5.28%. This swap was terminated in October 2012. The fair value of the swap was $6.3 million at December 31, 2011 and was recorded in Other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. A loss of $3.3 million was recognized upon termination and was recorded in Loss on early extinguishment of debt in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Derivative gains and losses included in AOCI were reclassified into earnings at the time the related interest expense was recognized or the settlement of the related commitment occurred. Interest expense from swaps was $5.3 million and $9.3 million in 2012 and 2011, respectively, and was recorded in Interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
In April 2011, as part of our planned debt issuance to fund the CPT acquisition, we entered into interest rate swap contracts to hedge movement in interest rates through the expected date of closing for a portion of the expected fixed rate debt offering. The swaps had a notional amount of $400 million with an average interest rate of 3.65%. In May 2011, upon the sale of the 2021 Notes, the swaps were terminated at a cost of $11.0 million. Because we
84
Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
used the contracts to hedge future interest payments, this was recorded in AOCI in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and will be amortized as interest expense over the 10 year life of the 2021 Notes. The ending unrealized net loss in AOCI at December 31, 2012 was $9.2 million.
Foreign currency contracts
We conduct business in various locations throughout the world and are subject to market risk due to changes in the value of foreign currencies in relation to our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. We manage our economic and transaction exposure to certain market-based risks through the use of foreign currency derivative financial instruments. Our objective in holding these derivatives is to reduce the volatility of net earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The majority of our foreign currency contracts have an original maturity date of less than one year. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had outstanding foreign currency derivative contracts with gross notional U.S. dollar equivalent amounts of $163.7 million and $79.9 million, respectively. The impact of these contracts on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) is not material for any period presented.
In March 2011, we entered into a foreign currency option contract to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in the euro related to the planned CPT acquisition. The contract had a notional amount of 286.0 million, a strike price of 1.4375 and a maturity date of May 13, 2011. In May 2011, we sold the foreign currency option contract for $1.0 million. The net cost of $2.1 million was recorded in Selling, general and administrative on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

The following methods were used to estimate the fair values of each class of financial instrument measured on a recurring basis:
| short-term financial instruments (cash and cash equivalents, accounts and notes receivable, accounts and notes payable and variable-rate debt) recorded amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity period; |
| long-term fixed-rate debt, including current maturities fair value is based on market quotes available for issuance of debt with similar terms, which are inputs that are classified as Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy defined by the accounting guidance; and |
| interest rate swaps and foreign currency contract agreements fair values are determined through the use of models that consider various assumptions, including time value, yield curves, as well as other relevant economic measures, which are inputs that are classified as Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy defined by the accounting guidance. |

As a result, we recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $60.7 million for trade names intangibles. The fair value of trade names is measured using the relief-from-royalty method. This method assumes the trade name has value to the extent that the owner is relieved of the obligation to pay royalties for the benefits received from them. This method requires us to estimate the future revenue for the related brands, the appropriate royalty rate and the weighted average cost of capital. |
(3) | In the fourth quarter of 2011, we completed our annual goodwill impairment review. As a result, we recorded a pre-tax non-cash impairment charge of $200.5 million in a reporting unit part of Water & Fluid Solutions. The fair value of each reporting unit is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis and market approach. Projecting discounted future cash flows requires us to make significant estimates regarding future revenues and expenses, projected capital expenditures, changes in working capital and the appropriate discount rate. Use of the market approach consists of comparisons to comparable publicly-traded companies that are similar in size and industry. Actual results may differ from those used in our valuations. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation. |

Included in the $54.5 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2012 was $38.6 million of tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. It is reasonably possible that the gross unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2012 may decrease by a range of $0 to $36.9 million during 2013, primarily as a result of the resolution of non-Swiss examinations, including U.S. federal and state examinations, and the expiration of various statutes of limitations.
The determination of annual income tax expense takes into consideration amounts which may be needed to cover exposures for open tax years. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has examined the Pentair, Inc. U.S. federal income tax returns through 2009 with no material adjustments. A number of tax periods from 2004 to present are under audit by tax authorities in various jurisdictions, including Germany and Italy. We anticipate that several of these audits may be concluded in the foreseeable future. We are also subject to the 2012 Tax Sharing Agreement, discussed below, which generally applies to pre-Distribution Tyco tax periods beginning in 1997 which remain subject to audit by the IRS.
We record penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in Provision (benefit) for income taxes and Interest expense, respectively. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, we accrued $3.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the possible payment of penalties and $19.5 million and $5.9 million, respectively, for the possible payment of interest expense, which are recorded in Other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Deferred taxes in the amount of $21.0 million have been provided on undistributed earnings of certain subsidiaries. Taxes have not been provided on undistributed earnings of subsidiaries where it is our intention to reinvest these earnings permanently or to repatriate the earnings only when it is tax effective to do so. It is not practicable to estimate the amount of tax that might be payable if such earnings were to be remitted.
Deferred taxes arise because of different treatment between financial statement accounting and tax accounting, known as temporary differences. We record the tax effect of these temporary differences as deferred tax

(1) | The increase in valuation allowance from 2011 to 2012 was primarily related to balances acquired in the Merger. |
As of December 31, 2012, tax loss carryforwards of $1,460.9 million were available to offset future income. A valuation allowance of $163.8 million exists for deferred income tax benefits related to the tax loss carryforwards which may not be realized. We believe sufficient taxable income will be generated in the respective jurisdictions to allow us to fully recover the remainder of the tax losses. The tax losses relate to Non-U.S. carryforwards of $903.4 million which are subject to varying expiration periods and will begin to expire in 2013. In addition, there were $367.1 million of U.S. federal and $190.4 million of state tax loss carryforwards as of December, 31, 2012, which will expire in future years through 2032. When realized, $6.2 million of tax benefits will be recorded as an increase in equity.
Tax sharing agreement and other income tax matters
In connection with the Distribution, we entered into a tax sharing agreement (the 2012 Tax Sharing Agreement) with Tyco and The ADT Corporation (ADT), which governs the rights and obligations of Tyco,
89
Pentair Ltd. and Subsidiaries
Notes to consolidated financial statements
ADT and us for certain pre-Distribution tax liabilities, including Tycos obligations under a separate tax sharing agreement (the 2007 Tax Sharing Agreement) that Tyco, Covidien Ltd. (Covidien) and TE Connectivity Ltd. (TE Connectivity) entered into in 2007. The 2012 Tax Sharing Agreement provides that we, Tyco and ADT will share (i) certain pre-Distribution income tax liabilities that arise from adjustments made by tax authorities to our, Tycos and ADTs U.S. income tax returns, and (ii) payments required to be made by Tyco in respect to the 2007 Tax Sharing Agreement (collectively, Shared Tax Liabilities). Tyco is responsible for the first $500 million of Shared Tax Liabilities. We and ADT will share 42% and 58%, respectively, of the next $225 million of Shared Tax Liabilities. We, ADT and Tyco will share 20%, 27.5% and 52.5%, respectively, of Shared Tax Liabilities above $725 million.
In the event the Distribution, the spin-off of ADT, or certain internal transactions undertaken in connection therewith were determined to be taxable as a result of actions taken after the Distribution by us, ADT or Tyco, the party responsible for such failure would be responsible for all taxes imposed on us, ADT or Tyco as a result thereof. Taxes resulting from the determination that the Distribution, the spin-off of ADT, or any internal transaction is taxable are referred to herein as Distribution Taxes. If such failure is not the result of actions taken after the Distribution by us, ADT or Tyco, then we, ADT and Tyco would be responsible for any Distribution Taxes imposed on us, ADT or Tyco as a result of such determination in the same manner and in the same proportions as the Shared Tax Liabilities. ADT will have sole responsibility for any income tax liability arising as a result of Tycos acquisition of Brinks Home Security Holdings, Inc. (BHS) in May 2010, including any liability of BHS under the tax sharing agreement between BHS and The Brinks Company dated October 31, 2008 (collectively, the BHS Tax Liabilities). Costs and expenses associated with the management of Shared Tax Liabilities, Distribution Taxes and BHS Tax Liabilities will generally be shared 20% by us, 27.5% by ADT and 52.5% by Tyco. We are responsible for all of our own taxes that are not shared pursuant to the 2012 Tax Sharing Agreements sharing formulae. In addition, Tyco and ADT are responsible for their tax liabilities that are not subject to the 2012 Tax Sharing Agreements sharing formulae.
The 2012 Tax Sharing Agreement also provides that, if any party were to default in its obligation to another party to pay its share of the distribution taxes that arise as a result of no partys fault, each non-defaulting party would be required to pay, equally with any other non-defaulting party, the amounts in default. In addition, if another party to the 2012 Tax Sharing Agreement that is responsible for all or a portion of an income tax liability were to default in its payment of such liability to a taxing authority, we could be legally liable under applicable tax law for such liabilities and required to make additional tax payments. Accordingly, under certain circumstances, we may be obligated to pay amounts in excess of our agreed-upon share of our, Tycos and ADTs tax liabilities.
With respect to years prior to and including the 2007 separation of Covidien and TE Connectivity by Tyco, tax authorities have raised issues and proposed tax adjustments that are generally subject to the sharing provisions of the 2007 Tax Sharing Agreement and which may require Tyco to make a payment to a taxing authority, Covidien or TE Connectivity. With respect to adjustments raised by the IRS, although Tyco has resolved a substantial number of these adjustments, a few significant items remain open with respect to the audit of the 1997 through 2004 years. As of the date hereof, it is unlikely that Tyco will be able to resolve all the open items, which primarily involve the treatment of certain intercompany debt issued during the period, through the IRS appeals process. As a result, Tyco expects to litigate these matters once it receives the requisite statutory notices from the IRS, which may occur as soon as within the next three months. However, the ultimate resolution of these matters is uncertain and could result in Tyco being responsible for a greater amount than it expects under the 2007 Tax Sharing Agreement. To the extent we are responsible for any Shared Tax Liability or Distribution Tax, there could be a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows in future reporting periods.

14. | Benefit Plans |
Pension and other post-retirement plans
We sponsor domestic and foreign defined-benefit pension and other post-retirement plans. Pension benefits are based principally on an employees years of service and/or compensation levels near retirement. In addition, we provide certain post-retirement health care and life insurance benefits. Generally, the post-retirement health care and life insurance plans require contributions from retirees. In December 2007, we announced that we will be freezing certain U.S. pension plans as of December 31, 2017. Since the announcement, we have pursued a strategy of gradually shifting our U.S. pension asset allocations towards liability hedging assets such as fixed income instruments and away from equity securities. During the last quarter of 2012 we made significant progress in reducing the risk and volatility of our U.S. pension plans by taking the following steps:
| We paid $331 million to settle pension obligations through a combination of lump sum payments to deferred vested participants and through the purchase of an annuity contract to settle obligations to plan participants in retiree status. |
| We made a special contribution of $190 million to fund our U.S. pension plans. |
| We accelerated our transition to increase the allocations of investments to liability hedging assets. |
During the fourth quarter of 2012, we changed our method of recognizing actuarial gains and losses for all of our pension and other post-retirement plans. Historically, we recognized actuarial gains and losses as a component of AOCI in our Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortized them into our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) over the average future service period of the active employees of these plans to the extent such gains and losses were outside of a corridor. We elected to immediately recognize actuarial gains and losses in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the basis that it is preferable to accelerate the recognition of such gains and losses into income rather than to delay such recognition. Additionally, for purposes of calculating the expected return on plan assets, we will no longer use a calculated value for the market-related valuation of plan assets, but instead will use the actual fair value of our plan assets. These changes will improve transparency in our operating results by more quickly recognizing the effects of external conditions on our plan obligations, investments and assumptions. Generally, these gains and losses are measured annually as of December 31 and accordingly will be recorded during the fourth quarter. We have applied these changes retrospectively, adjusting all prior periods (see Note 3).

Uncertainty in the securities markets and U.S. economy could result in investment returns less than those assumed. Should the securities markets decline or medical and prescription drug costs increase at a rate greater than assumed, we would expect increasing annual combined net pension and other post-retirement costs for the next several years. Should actual experience differ from actuarial assumptions, the projected pension benefit obligation and net pension cost and accumulated other post-retirement benefit obligation and other post-retirement benefit cost would be affected in future years.
Discount rates
The discount rate reflects the current rate at which the pension liabilities could be effectively settled at the end of the year based on our December 31 measurement date. The discount rate was determined by matching our expected benefit payments to payments from a stream of bonds rated AA or higher available in the marketplace, adjusted to eliminate the effects of call provisions. This produced a discount rate for our U.S. pension plans of 3.67%, 5.05% and 5.90% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The discount rates on our non-U.S. pension plans ranged from 0.50 % to 4.50%, 0.75% to 5.00% and 0.75% to 5.40% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. There are no other known or anticipated changes in our discount rate assumptions that will impact our pension expense in 2013.
Expected rates of return
Our expected rates of return on U.S. pension plan assets were 7.5%, 8.0% and 8.5% for 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The expected rate of return is designed to be a long-term assumption that may be subject to considerable year-to-year variance from actual returns. In developing the expected long-term rate of return, we considered our historical returns, with consideration given to forecasted economic conditions, our asset allocations, input from external consultants and broader longer-term market indices. U.S. pension plan assets yielded returns of 10.8%, 7.8% and 11.2% in 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As a result of our de-risking

strategy to reduce U.S. pension plan, our expected rate of return on plan assets is 3.75% for 2013. Any difference in the expected rate and actual returns will be included with the actuarial gain or loss recorded in the fourth quarter when our plans are remeasured.
Healthcare cost trend rates
The assumed healthcare cost trend rates for other post-retirement plans as of December 31 were as follows:
2012 | 2011 | |||||||
Healthcare cost trend rate assumed for following year |
7.4 | % | 7.5 | % | ||||
Rate to which the cost trend rate is assumed to decline (the ultimate trend rate) |
4.5 | % | 4.5 | % | ||||
Year the cost trend rate reaches the ultimate trend rate |
2027 | 2027 |
The assumed healthcare cost trend rates can have a significant effect on the amounts reported for healthcare plans. A one-percentage-point change in the assumed healthcare cost trend rates would have the following effects as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012:

Objective
The primary objective of our investment strategy is to meet the pension obligation to our employees at a reasonable cost to us. This is primarily accomplished through growth of capital and safety of the funds invested.
During 2012, we adopted an investment strategy for our U.S. pension plans with a primary objective of preserving the funded status of the U.S. plans. This is achieved through investments in fixed interest instruments with interest rate sensitivity characteristics closely reflecting the interest rate sensitivity of our benefit obligations. Shifting of allocations away from equities to liability hedging fixed income investments is currently in progress. As equity investments are redeemed, proceeds are reinvested in fixed income instruments. After we have completed the transition, the U.S. pension plans will have in excess of 90 percent allocation to fixed income investments.
Asset allocation
Our actual overall asset allocation for our U.S. and non-U.S. pension plans as compared to our investment policy goals as of December 31 was as follows:

Notes to consolidated financial statements
Valuation methodologies used for investments measured at fair value were as follows:
| Cash and cash equivalents: Cash consists of cash held in bank accounts and was classified as Level 1. Cash equivalents consist of investments in commingled funds valued based on observable market data. Such investments were classified as Level 2. |
| Fixed income: Investments in corporate bonds, government securities, mortgages and asset backed securities were value based upon quoted market prices for similar securities and other observable market data. Investments in commingled funds were generally valued at the net asset value of units held at the end of the period based upon the value of the underlying investments as determined by quoted market prices or by a pricing service. Such investments were classified as Level 2. Certain investments in commingled funds were valued based on unobservable inputs due to liquidation restrictions. These investments were classified as Level 3. |
| Global equity securities: Equity securities and our common shares were valued based on the closing market price in an active market and were classified as Level 1. Investments in commingled funds were valued at the net asset value of units held at the end of the period based upon the value of the underlying investments as determined by quoted market prices or by a pricing service. Such investments were classified as Level 2. |
| Other investments: Other investments include investments in commingled funds with diversified investment strategies. Investments in commingled funds that were valued at the net asset value of units held at the end of the period based upon the value of the underlying investments as determined by quoted market prices or by a pricing service were classified as Level 2. Investments in commingled funds that were valued based on unobservable inputs due to liquidation restrictions were classified as Level 3. |
