NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. General Information

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and therefore do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but also does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. However, in the opinion of Briggs & Stratton Corporation (the Company), adequate disclosures have been presented to prevent the information from being misleading, and all adjustments necessary to present fair statements of the results of operations and financial position have been included. All of these adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information included in these consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto which were included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.

2. New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2012-02 "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment,"which permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired before performing quantitative impairment testing. The amendments do not change the measurement of impairment losses. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment,” which permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value before applying the two-step goodwill impairment model that is currently in place. If it is determined through the qualitative assessment that a reporting unit's fair value is more likely than not greater than its carrying value, the remaining impairment steps would be unnecessary. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. This update is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which amends current comprehensive income guidance. This ASU eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders’ equity. Instead, it requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. Under the two-statement approach, the first statement would include components of net income, which is consistent with the income statement format used today, and the second statement would include components of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The ASU does not change the items that must be reported in OCI. ASU 2011-05 will be effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

3. Assets Held for Sale

At September 30, 2012 and at July 1, 2012, the Company had $5.4 million and $10.4 million, respectively, included in Assets Held for Sale in its Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2012, Assets Held for Sale consisted of certain assets related to the Ostrava, Czech Republic production facility. As of July 1, 2012, Assets Held for Sale consisted of certain assets related to the Ostrava and Jefferson, WI production facilities. Prior to the closure of the Ostrava facility, small engines were manufactured by the Company within its Engines Segment for the outdoor power equipment industry. Prior to the closure of the Jefferson facility, portable generator and pressure washer products were manufactured, marketed and sold by the Company within its Products Segment. In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company completed the sale of its dormant manufacturing facility in Jefferson, Wisconsin and a land parcel adjacent to its Ostrava, Czech Republic plant.

4. Restructuring Actions

In January 2012, the Company announced plans to reduce manufacturing capacity through closure of its Newbern, Tennessee and Ostrava, Czech Republic plants, as well as the reconfiguration of its plant in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. In April 2012, the Company announced plans to further reduce manufacturing costs through consolidation of its Auburn, Alabama manufacturing facility as well as the reduction of approximately 10% of the Company's salaried headcount. During fiscal 2012, the Company ceased manufacturing operations at its Newbern, Tennessee and Ostrava, Czech Republic plants, carried out the reconfiguration of the Poplar Bluff, Missouri plant and implemented the salaried headcount reductions.

The Company reports restructuring charges associated with manufacturing and related initiatives as costs of goods sold within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. Restructuring charges reflected as costs of goods sold include, but are not limited to, termination and related costs associated with manufacturing employees, asset impairments and accelerated depreciation relating to manufacturing initiatives, and other costs directly related to the restructuring initiatives implemented. The Company reports all other non-manufacturing related restructuring charges as selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. The closing of the Company's facility in Newbern, Tennessee affected approximately 240 regular employees and 450 temporary employees. Additionally, the closing of the Ostrava, Czech Republic facility affected approximately 77 regular employees. There were no significant employment changes at the Poplar Bluff, Missouri facility as a result of the idling of certain assets. Approximately 250 regular employees were affected by the Auburn, Alabama facility consolidation. The 10% reduction of the Company's salaried workforce affected approximately 210 employees globally.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company completed the sale of its dormant manufacturing facility in Jefferson, Wisconsin and a land parcel adjacent to its Ostrava, Czech Republic plant.

The Company recorded pre-tax charges of $5.1 million ($3.3 million after tax or $0.07 per diluted share) during the three months ended September 30, 2012 related to the restructuring actions. The Engines Segment and Products Segment recorded $1.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of pre-tax restructuring charges within gross profit during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

The following is a rollforward of the restructuring reserve (included in Accrued Liabilities within the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets) attributable to all Engines Segment restructuring activities for the three month period ended September 30, 2012 (in thousands):

	Termination Benefits			Other Costs			Total

(2) Other adjustments includes $1.7 million of plant, property, and equipment impairment, $0.4 million of accelerated depreciation and $0.1 million of inventory write-offs.

5. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share using the two-class method, an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings (loss) per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s unvested grants of restricted stock and deferred stock awards contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends (whether paid or unpaid), which are required to be treated as participating securities and included in the computation of basic earnings (loss) per share.

Information on earnings (loss) per share is as follows (in thousands except per share data):

	Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2012			October 2, 2011
Net Loss	$	(16,527	)	$	(5,220	)
Less: Dividends Attributable to Unvested Shares	(96		)	(80		)
Net Loss Available to Common Shareholders	$	(16,623	)	$	(5,300	)
Weighted Average Shares Outstanding	47,133			49,818
Diluted Average Shares Outstanding	47,133			49,818
Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share	$	(0.35	)	$	(0.10	)
Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share	$	(0.35	)	$	(0.10	)

The dilutive effect of the potential exercise of outstanding stock-based awards to acquire common shares is calculated using the treasury stock method. As a result of the Company incurring a loss from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and October 2, 2011, potential incremental common shares of 1,024,000 and 826,000, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS for each period because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. In addition, the following options to purchase shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares:

	Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2012		October 2, 2011
Options to Purchase Shares of Common Stock (in thousands)	3,505		4,040
Weighted Average Exercise Price of Options Excluded	$	26.19	$	26.59

On August 10, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized up to $50 million in funds for use in a common share repurchase program with an expiration of June 30, 2013. On August 8, 2012 the Board of DIrectors of the Company authorized up to an additional $50 million in funds associated with the common share repurchase program and an extension of the expiration date to June 30, 2014. The common share repurchase program authorizes the purchase of shares of the Company's common stock on the open market or in private transactions from time to time, depending on market conditions and certain governing loan covenants. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company repurchased 726,745 shares on the open market at an average price $17.73 per share as compared to 219,200 shares on the open market at an average price of $14.23 per share during the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

7. Pension and Postretirement Benefits

The Company has noncontributory defined benefit retirement plans and postretirement plans covering certain employees. The following tables summarize the plans’ income and expense for the periods indicated (in thousands):

	Pension Benefits						Other Postretirement Benefits
	Three Months Ended						Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2012			October 2, 2011			September 30, 2012			October 2, 2011

Service Cost	$	3,837		$	3,397		$	97		$	103
Interest Cost on Projected Benefit Obligation	13,326			14,351			1,200			1,680

Prior Service Cost (Credit)	225			725			(897		)	(959		)
Actuarial Loss	8,822			4,676			1,890			2,236
Net Periodic Expense	$	7,001		$	3,927		$	2,290		$	3,060

The Company expects to make benefit payments of approximately $3.0 million attributable to its non-qualified pension plans during fiscal 2013. During the first three months of fiscal 2013, the Company made payments of approximately $0.7 million for its non-qualified pension plans. The Company anticipates making benefit payments of approximately $19.7 million for its other postretirement benefit plans during fiscal 2013. During the first three months of fiscal 2013, the Company made payments of $4.7 million for its other postretirement benefit plans.

On July 6, 2012, the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21 Act) was signed into law. The MAP-21 Act included certain pension-related provisions which included changes to the methodology used to determine discount rates for ERISA funding purposes for qualified defined benefit pension plans. Based on historical interest rates, the MAP-21 Act allows plan sponsors to utilize a higher discount rate to value pension liabilities, which results in lower required pension plan contributions under ERISA. Subsequent to filing the Company's recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company learned of the final interest rates published by the Internal Revenue Service used to calculate minimum pension  contributions under the Map-21 Act. Based upon the current regulations and actuarial studies the Company estimates that it will make required minimum contributions to the qualified pension plan of approximately $30 million during fiscal 2013. During the first three months of fiscal 2013, the Company made cash contributions of $5.5 million to the qualified pension plan. The Company may be required to make further contributions in future years depending upon the actual return on plan assets and the funded status of the plan in future periods.

8. Stock Incentives

Stock based compensation expense is calculated by estimating the fair value of incentive stock awards granted and amortizing the estimated value over the awards' vesting period. Stock based compensation expense was $2.5 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2012 and October 2, 2011.

9. Derivative Instruments & Hedging Activities

The Company enters into derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges to manage certain interest rate, foreign currency and commodity exposures. Company policy allows derivatives to be used only for identifiable exposures and, therefore, the Company does not enter into hedges for trading purposes where the sole objective is to generate profits.

The Company formally designates the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure and documents both the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge. The Company formally assesses, both at the inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in the forecasted cash flows of the related underlying

exposure. Because of the high degree of effectiveness between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure being hedged, fluctuations in the value of the derivative instruments are generally offset by changes in the forecasted cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. Derivative financial instruments are recorded on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. The effective portion of gains or losses on the derivative designated as cash flow hedges are reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (AOCI) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of a financial instrument's change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.

The Company enters into interest rate swaps to manage a portion of its interest rate risk from financing certain dealer and distributor inventories through a third party financing source. The swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and are used to effectively fix the interest payments to a third party financing source, exclusive of lender spreads, ranging from 1.36% to 1.60% for a notional principal amount of $85 million through July 2017.

The Company enters into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge the risk from forecasted third party and intercompany sales or payments denominated in foreign currencies. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Euros, Japanese Yen, Australian Dollars or Canadian Dollars. These contracts generally do not have a maturity of more than twenty-four months.

The Company uses raw materials that are subject to price volatility. The Company hedges a portion of its exposure to the variability of cash flows associated with commodities used in the manufacturing process by entering into forward purchase contracts or commodity swaps. Derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used by the Company to reduce exposure to variability in cash flows associated with future purchases of natural gas and aluminum. These contracts generally do not have a maturity of more than twenty-four months.

The Company has considered the counterparty credit risk related to all its interest rate, foreign currency and commodity derivative contracts and deems any risk of counterparty default to be minimal.

The notional amount of derivative contracts outstanding at the end of the period is indicative of the level of the Company’s derivative activity during the period. As of September 30, 2012 and July 1, 2012, the Company had the following outstanding derivative contracts (in thousands):

Contract		Notional Amount

10. Fair Value Measurements

The following guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-driven valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3: Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

The following table presents information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2012 and July 1, 2012 (in thousands):

			Fair Value Measurement Using
	September 30, 2012		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets:
Derivatives	$	732	$	—	$	732	$	—
Liabilities:
Derivatives	$	7,709	$	—	$	7,709	$	—
	July 1, 2012		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets:
Derivatives	$	1,926	$	—	$	1,926	$	—
Liabilities:
Derivatives	$	11,303	$	—	$	11,303	$	—

The fair value for Level 2 measurements are based upon the respective quoted market prices for comparable instruments in active markets, which include current market pricing for forward purchases of commodities, foreign currency forwards, and current interest rates.

The estimated fair value of the Company's Senior Notes at September 30, 2012 and July 1, 2012 was $257.4 million and $241.0 million, respectively, compared to the carrying value of $225.0 million. The estimated fair value of the Senior Notes are based on quoted market prices for similar instruments and is, therefore, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The carrying value of the Revolver and Short-Term Debt approximates the fair value since the underlying rate of interest is variable based upon LIBOR rates.  

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, and accounts payable are reasonable estimates of their fair values at September 30, 2012 and July 1, 2012 due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

11. Warranty

The Company recognizes the cost associated with its standard warranty on Engines and Products at the time of sale. The amount recognized is based on historical failure rates and current claim cost experience. The following is a reconciliation of the changes in accrued warranty costs for the reporting period (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2012			October 2, 2011
Beginning Balance	$	46,013		$	45,995
Payments	(7,599		)	(7,816		)
Provision for Current Year Warranties	5,774			6,674
Changes in Estimates	2			(126		)
Ending Balance	$	44,190		$	44,727

12. Income Taxes

As of July 1, 2012, the Company had $6.7 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits. Of this amount, $5.4 million represents the portion that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. As of July 1, 2012, the Company had $0.4 million accrued for the payment of interest and penalties. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded an increase to the tax reserve of less than $0.1 million related to interest.

The effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was 33.6%, compared to a negative 25.3% for the same respective period last year.

The Company's annual effective tax rate reflects its best estimate of financial operating results and the estimated impact of foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in the mix of pre-tax income from all tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates will have an impact on the Company's effective tax rate. The fiscal 2013 estimated annual tax rate is based on the latest tax law changes.

Income tax returns are filed in the U.S., state, and foreign jurisdictions and related audits occur on a regular basis. In the U.S., the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations before fiscal 2009 and is currently under audit by U.S. federal and various state and foreign jurisdictions. With respect to the Company's major foreign jurisdictions, it is no longer subject to tax examinations before fiscal 2002.

13. Commitments and Contingencies

Briggs & Stratton is subject to various unresolved legal actions that arise in the normal course of its business. These actions typically relate to product liability (including asbestos-related liability), patent and trademark matters, and disputes with customers, suppliers, distributors and dealers, competitors and employees.

On March 19, 2010, plaintiffs filed a complaint in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Canada (Robert Foster et al. v. Sears Canada, Inc. et al., Docket No. 766-2010) against the Company and other engine and lawnmower manufacturers alleging that the horsepower labels on the products they purchased were inaccurate and that the Company conspired with other engine and lawnmower manufacturers to conceal the true horsepower of these engines. On May 3, 2010, other plaintiffs filed a complaint in the Montreal Superior Court in Canada (Eric Liverman, et al. v. Deere & Company, et al., Docket No. 500-06-000507-109). Both Canadian complaints contain allegations and seek relief under Canadian law similar to the litigation filed in the U.S. regarding horsepower labeling which was settled and approved by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin on August 26, 2010. The Company is evaluating the Canadian complaints and has not yet filed an answer or other responsive pleading to either one.

On May 14, 2010, the Company notified retirees and certain retirement eligible employees of various changes to the Company-sponsored retiree medical plans. The purpose of the amendments was to better align the plans offered to both hourly and salaried retirees. On August 16, 2010, a putative class of retirees who retired prior to August 1, 2006 and the United Steel Workers filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin (Merrill, Weber, Carpenter, et al; United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial

BRIGGS & STRATTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

and Service Workers International Union, AFL-CIO/CLC v. Briggs & Stratton Corporation; Group Insurance Plan of Briggs & Stratton Corporation; and Does 1 through 20, Docket No. 10-C-0700), contesting the Company's right to make these changes. In addition to a request for class certification, the complaint seeks an injunction preventing the alleged unilateral termination or reduction in insurance coverage to the class of retirees, a permanent injunction preventing defendants from ever making changes to the retirees' insurance coverage, restitution with interest (if applicable) and attorneys' fees and costs. The Company moved to dismiss the complaint and believes the changes are within its rights. On April 21, 2011, the district court issued an order granting the Company's motion to dismiss the complaint. The plaintiffs filed a motion with the court to reconsider its order on May 17, 2011, and on August 24, 2011 the court granted the motion and vacated the dismissal of the case. The Company then filed a motion with the court to appeal its decision directly to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, but the court denied this motion on February 29, 2012. On October 9, 2012 the court granted the parties' unopposed motion for class certification. Discovery is underway in the case.

Although it is not reasonably possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss, the Company believes the unresolved legal actions will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

On December 15, 2010, the Company issued $225 million of 6.875% Senior Notes ("Senior Notes") due December 15, 2020.  

On October 13, 2011, the Company entered into a $500 million multicurrency credit agreement (the “Revolver”), which replaced the Company's prior amended and restated multicurrency credit agreement. The Revolver has a term of five years and all outstanding borrowings on the Revolver are due and payable on October 13, 2016. The initial maximum availability under the revolving credit facility is $500 million. Availability under the revolving credit facility is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. The Company may from time to time increase the maximum availability under the revolving credit facility by up to $250 million if certain conditions are satisfied.

The Senior Notes and Revolver contain restrictive covenants. These covenants include restrictions on the Company’s ability to: pay dividends; repurchase shares; incur indebtedness; create liens; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; consolidate or merge with other entities; sell or lease all or substantially all of its assets; and dispose of assets or the proceeds of sales of its assets. The Revolver contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and impose a maximum average leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

16. Separate Financial Information of Subsidiary Guarantor of Indebtedness

Under the terms of the Company’s Senior Notes and the Revolver (collectively, the “Domestic Indebtedness”), Briggs & Stratton Power Products Group, LLC, a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company, is the joint and several guarantor of the Domestic Indebtedness (the “Guarantor”). The guarantees are full and unconditional guarantees, except for certain customary limitations. Additionally, if at any time a domestic subsidiary of the Company constitutes a significant domestic subsidiary, then such domestic subsidiary will also become a guarantor of the Domestic Indebtedness. Currently, all of the Domestic Indebtedness is unsecured. If the Company were to fail to make a payment of interest or principal on its due date, the Guarantor is obligated to pay the outstanding Domestic Indebtedness. The Company had the following outstanding amounts related to the guaranteed debt (in thousands):

	September 30, 2012 Carrying Amount		Maximum Guarantee
6.875% Senior Notes	$	225,000	$	225,000

The Company revised its condensed supplemental statements of cash flows for the interim periods ended October 2, 2011, January 1, 2012, and April 1, 2012, to correct both the form and content of the condensed presentation in accordance with Regulation S-X Rule 3-10 and Rule 10-01. The revision was made to adjust cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities and cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities within the condensed supplemental consolidating statements of cash flows. The Company identified adjustments to previously reported amounts in the condensed supplemental statements of cash flows for previously reported periods as a result of the change in presentation of certain intercompany transactions between Briggs & Stratton Corporation and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. These revisions, which the Company determined are not material individually or in the aggregate, had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The following tables reflect the previously reported and as revised and summarized amounts of the Company's condensed supplemental consolidating statements of cash flows:

17. Subsequent Events

On October 17, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized amendments to the Company's defined benefit and defined contribution 401(k) retirement plans for U.S., non-bargaining employees. The defined benefit pension plan amendment freezes accruals for all non-bargaining employees effective January 1, 2014. The defined contribution 401(k) plan amendment increases the Company's maximum matching contribution from 3.5% to 4.0% of pay and offers all domestic non-bargaining employees a Company non-elective contribution equal to 3.0% of the employee's pay. This amendment is also effective as of January 1, 2014. The Company expects to recognize a pre-tax curtailment charge of approximately $2.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 related to the defined benefit plan change.

On November 5, 2012, Briggs & Stratton Representação de Motores e Produtos de Força do Brasil Ltda. (“Briggs Brazil”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement with the shareholders of Companhia Caetano Branco, of Brazil (“Branco”), under which Briggs Brazil agreed to purchase all of the common stock of Branco from the shareholders for $60 million in cash, subject to post-closing adjustments. The closing is expected to occur within three to four months of the agreement date and is subject to conditions customarily associated with a purchase of this type.

Branco is a leading brand in the Brazilian light power equipment market with a broad range of outdoor power equipment used primarily in light commercial applications in Brazil. Its products, including generators, water pumps, and light construction equipment, are sold through its independent network of over 1200 dealers throughout Brazil. The Company anticipates financing the transaction from cash on hand and/or its existing credit facilities. Branco has annual sales of approximately $40 million with operating margins ranging from approximately 13% to 17% across its various product lines.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations for the periods included in the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

NET SALES

Consolidated net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 were $309.0 million, a decrease of $88.3 million or 22.2% from the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Engines Segment fiscal 2013 first quarter net sales were $164.5 million, which was $38.9 million or 19.1% lower than the first quarter of fiscal 2012. This decrease in net sales was primarily driven by a 16% reduction in unit shipment volumes mainly to lawn and garden OEMs in the North American and Asian markets resulting from drought conditions in North America and economic uncertainty in the global markets, an unfavorable mix of engines sold that reflected proportionately lower sales of large engines and unfavorable foreign exchange of $1.9 million, partially offset by improved engine pricing.

Products Segment fiscal 2013 first quarter net sales were $173.3 million, a decrease of $62.0 million or 26.3% from the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in net sales was primarily due to lower sales volumes of portable generators due to fewer storm related sales compared to the same period a year ago, reduced pre-season sales of snow equipment due to adequate inventory levels resulting from the unusually mild winter last year and reduced sales of lawn and garden equipment due to drought conditions in North America. This decrease was partially offset by higher shipments internationally as well as higher shipments of home standby generators and improved pricing.

GROSS PROFIT PERCENTAGE

Included in consolidated gross profit were pre-tax charges of $5.1 million ($3.3 million after tax or $0.07 per diluted share) during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 related to previously announced restructuring actions to close the Ostrava, Czech Republic and Newbern, Tennesee manufacturing facilities and the Auburn, Alabama plant consolidation. The Engines Segment and Products Segment recorded $1.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of pre-tax restructuring charges within gross profit during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

26

BRIGGS & STRATTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

The following table is a reconciliation of gross profit by segment, as reported, to adjusted gross profit by segment, excluding restructuring charges.

Inter-Segment Eliminations	442			1,561
Adjusted Gross Profit (1)	$	48,996		$	66,054

(1) Adjusted gross profit is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company believes this information is meaningful to investors as it isolates the impact that restructuring charges have on gross profit and facilitates comparisons between peer companies. While the Company believes that adjusted gross profit is useful supplemental information, such adjusted results are not intended to replace our Generally Accepted Accounting Principles’ (“GAAP”) financial results and should be read in conjunction with those GAAP results.

The consolidated gross profit percentage was 14.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, down from 16.6% in the same period last year.

The Engines Segment gross profit percentage was 15.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, lower from 18.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Excluding restructuring charges of $1.1 million, adjusted Engines Segment gross profit percentage in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was 15.7%, a decrease of 240 basis points compared to Engines Segment gross profit percentage in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The adjusted gross profit percentage was unfavorably impacted by 2.8% due to a mix of products sold that reflect proportionately lower sales of large engines, 2.1% due to reduced absorption on 16% lower production volumes and unfavorable absorption rates driven by proportionately lower production of large engines and 0.6% due to unfavorable foreign exchange. These reductions in gross profit percentage were partially offset by a 1.4% benefit due to increased pricing and 1.7% from cost savings as a result of restructuring actions initiated in fiscal 2012.

27

BRIGGS & STRATTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

The Products Segment gross profit percentage was 10.8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, lower from 11.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Excluding restructuring charges of $4.0 million, adjusted Products Segment gross profit percentage in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was 13.1%, an increase of 140 basis points compared to Products Segment gross profit percentage in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The adjusted gross profit percentage was improved by 2.5% due to increased pricing and a favorable mix of lawn and garden sales through the dealer channel, 0.3% from favorable foreign exchange and 2.4% from cost savings as a result of restructuring actions initiated in fiscal 2012. This was partially offset by 0.3% from higher manufacturing costs and 3.5% unfavorable absorption on 44% lower production throughput as we continue to manage inventories.

ENGINEERING, SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Engineering, selling, general and administrative expenses were $65.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, a decrease of $2.0 million or 2.9% from the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in the current year was primarily attributable to lower compensation costs of $2.9 million as a result of the previously announced global salaried employee reduction and a planned reduction of spend in advertising costs and professional services in response to the softness in the global markets, which was partially offset by $1.4 million of increased pension expense compared to the same period last year.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was $4.5 million, or $0.1 million higher compared to the same period a year ago.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was 33.6% or $8.4 million of tax benefit compared to negative 25.3% or $1.1 million of tax expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The first quarter of fiscal 2012 reflected a tax expense in spite of a loss before taxes as the Company was unable to record a benefit for losses at certain of our foreign subsidiaries. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, these foreign subsidiaries improved their profitability, resulting in the most recent quarter effective tax rate to be in line with the effective rate expected for the full fiscal year.

RESTRUCTURING ACTIONS

The Company's execution of its previously announced restructuring actions remains on schedule. In the first fiscal quarter of 2013, the Company completed the sale of its dormant manufacturing facility in Jefferson, Wisconsin and a land parcel adjacent to its Ostrava, Czech Republic plant. In addition, the Company has made progress towards finalizing its exit from the Newbern, Tennessee and Ostrava, Czech Republic manufacturing facilities. The Company anticipates completion of its Auburn, Alabama plant consolidation by the end of fiscal 2013. As noted previously, pre-tax restructuring costs for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 were $5.1 million. The total estimated pre-tax expense related to restructuring actions in fiscal 2013 is expected to be $12 million to $22 million. In addition, the Company continues to anticipate pre-tax savings associated with restructuring actions of $30 million to $35 million in fiscal 2013 and $40 million to $45 million in fiscal 2014.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash flows used in operating activities for the fiscal 2013 first quarter were $41.4 million compared to $56.3 million in the fiscal 2012 first quarter. The change in cash flows used in operating activities was primarily related to lower working capital needs in the most recent period and incremental contributions to the pension plan of $5.5 million in fiscal 2013.

Cash flows used in investing activities were $2.3 million and $10.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively. The $7.9 million decrease in cash used in investing activities was primarily the result of $5.6 million of proceeds received on disposition of plant and equipment, primarily associated with the sale of the dormant manufacturing facility in Jefferson, Wisconsin and a land parcel adjacent to the Ostrava, Czech Republic plant. The remaining $2.3 million decrease was attributable to lower capital expenditures in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the same period a year ago.

28

BRIGGS & STRATTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Cash flows used in financing activities were $11.4 million and $3.1 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, respectively. The $8.2 million increase in cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to $9.8 million of higher treasury share repurchases in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to the same period a year ago.

FUTURE LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On December 15, 2010, the Company issued $225 million of 6.875% Senior Notes ("Senior Notes") due December 15, 2020.  

On October 13, 2011, the Company entered into a $500 million multicurrency credit agreement (the “Revolver”). The Revolver replaced the amended and restated multicurrency credit agreement dated as of July 12, 2007. The Revolver has a term of five years and all outstanding borrowings on the Revolver are due and payable on October 13, 2016. The initial maximum availability under the revolving credit facility is $500 million. Availability under the revolving credit facility is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. The Company may from time to time increase the maximum availability under the revolving credit facility by up to $250 million if certain conditions are satisfied. There were no borrowings under the Revolver as of September 30, 2012.

On August 10, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized up to $50 million in funds for use in a common share repurchase program with an expiration of June 30, 2013. On August 8, 2012 the Board of Directors of the Company authorized up to an additional $50 million in funds associated with the common share repurchase program and an extension of the expiration date to June 30, 2014. The common share repurchase program authorizes the purchase of shares of the Company's common stock on the open market or in private transactions from time to time, depending on market conditions and certain governing loan covenants. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company repurchased 726,745 shares on the open market at an average price $17.73 per share as compared to repurchasing 219,200 shares on the open market at an average price of $14.23 per share during the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Subsequent to the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company repurchased an additional 189,174 shares at an average price of $19.00 per share.

The Company expects capital expenditures to be approximately $50 million to $60 million in fiscal 2013. These anticipated expenditures reflect our plans to continue to reinvest in efficient equipment and innovative new products.

The Company is required to make contributions to the qualified pension plan of approximately $30 million during fiscal 2013. During the first three months of fiscal 2013, the Company made cash contributions of $5.5 million to the qualified pension plan. The Company may be required to make further contributions in future years depending upon the actual return on plan assets and the funded status of the plan in future periods.

Management believes that available cash, cash generated from operations, existing lines of credit and access to debt markets will be adequate to fund the Company’s capital requirements and operational needs for the foreseeable future.

The Revolver and the Senior Notes contain restrictive covenants. These covenants include restrictions on the Company’s ability to: pay dividends; repurchase shares; incur indebtedness; create liens; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; consolidate or merge with other entities; sell or lease all or substantially all of its assets; and dispose of assets or the proceeds of sales of its assets. The Revolver contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and impose a maximum leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with these covenants, and expects to be in compliance with all covenants during the remainder of fiscal 2013.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

There have been no material changes since the August 28, 2012 filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

There have been no material changes since the August 28, 2012 filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, except that subsequent to the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company learned of the final interest rates published by the Internal Revenue Service used to calculate minimum pension contributions under the Map-21 Act. In addition, the changes announced to freeze the defined benefit pension plans for non-bargaining employees also impacts the future minimum plan funding requirements. Based upon the current regulations and actuarial studies the Company estimates that it will make required minimum contributions to the qualified pension plan of approximately $30 million in fiscal 2013, $10 million in fiscal years 2014-2015, and $55 million in fiscal years 2015-2016.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There have been no material changes in the Company’s critical accounting policies since the August 28, 2012 filing of its Annual Report on Form 10-K. As discussed in our annual report, the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include a goodwill assessment, estimates as to the realizability of accounts receivable and inventory assets, as well as estimates used in the determination of liabilities related to customer rebates, pension obligations, postretirement benefits, warranty, product liability, group health insurance, litigation and taxation. Various assumptions and other factors underlie the determination of these significant estimates. The process of determining significant estimates is fact specific and takes into account factors such as historical experience, current and expected economic conditions, product mix, and, in some instances, actuarial techniques. The Company re-evaluates these significant factors as facts and circumstances change.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Prospective Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract]

Description of New Accounting Pronouncements Not yet Adopted

New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2012-02 "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment,"which permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired before performing quantitative impairment testing. The amendments do not change the measurement of impairment losses. This update is effective for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment,” which permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value before applying the two-step goodwill impairment model that is currently in place. If it is determined through the qualitative assessment that a reporting unit's fair value is more likely than not greater than its carrying value, the remaining impairment steps would be unnecessary. The qualitative assessment is optional, allowing companies to go directly to the quantitative assessment. This update is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income: Presentation of Comprehensive Income,” which amends current comprehensive income guidance. This ASU eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders’ equity. Instead, it requires entities to report components of comprehensive income in either (1) a continuous statement of comprehensive income or (2) two separate but consecutive statements. Under the two-statement approach, the first statement would include components of net income, which is consistent with the income statement format used today, and the second statement would include components of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The ASU does not change the items that must be reported in OCI. ASU 2011-05 will be effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011 with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

Separate Financial Information of Subsidiary Guarantor of Indebtedness

Under the terms of the Company’s Senior Notes and the Revolver (collectively, the “Domestic Indebtedness”), Briggs & Stratton Power Products Group, LLC, a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company, is the joint and several guarantor of the Domestic Indebtedness (the “Guarantor”). The guarantees are full and unconditional guarantees, except for certain customary limitations. Additionally, if at any time a domestic subsidiary of the Company constitutes a significant domestic subsidiary, then such domestic subsidiary will also become a guarantor of the Domestic Indebtedness. Currently, all of the Domestic Indebtedness is unsecured. If the Company were to fail to make a payment of interest or principal on its due date, the Guarantor is obligated to pay the outstanding Domestic Indebtedness. The Company had the following outstanding amounts related to the guaranteed debt (in thousands):

The Company revised its condensed supplemental statements of cash flows for the interim periods ended October 2, 2011, January 1, 2012, and April 1, 2012, to correct both the form and content of the condensed presentation in accordance with Regulation S-X Rule 3-10 and Rule 10-01. The revision was made to adjust cash flows provided by (used in) operating activities, cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities and cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities within the condensed supplemental consolidating statements of cash flows. The Company identified adjustments to previously reported amounts in the condensed supplemental statements of cash flows for previously reported periods as a result of the change in presentation of certain intercompany transactions between Briggs & Stratton Corporation and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. These revisions, which the Company determined are not material individually or in the aggregate, had no impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The following tables reflect the previously reported and as revised and summarized amounts of the Company's condensed supplemental consolidating statements of cash flows:

Income Tax Expense (Benefit) [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

As of July 1, 2012, the Company had $6.7 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits. Of this amount, $5.4 million represents the portion that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. As of July 1, 2012, the Company had $0.4 million accrued for the payment of interest and penalties. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded an increase to the tax reserve of less than $0.1 million related to interest.

The effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was 33.6%, compared to a negative 25.3% for the same respective period last year.

The Company's annual effective tax rate reflects its best estimate of financial operating results and the estimated impact of foreign currency exchange rates. Changes in the mix of pre-tax income from all tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates will have an impact on the Company's effective tax rate. The fiscal 2013 estimated annual tax rate is based on the latest tax law changes.

Income tax returns are filed in the U.S., state, and foreign jurisdictions and related audits occur on a regular basis. In the U.S., the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations before fiscal 2009 and is currently under audit by U.S. federal and various state and foreign jurisdictions. With respect to the Company's major foreign jurisdictions, it is no longer subject to tax examinations before fiscal 2002.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share using the two-class method, an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings (loss) per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s unvested grants of restricted stock and deferred stock awards contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends (whether paid or unpaid), which are required to be treated as participating securities and included in the computation of basic earnings (loss) per share.

Information on earnings (loss) per share is as follows (in thousands except per share data):

	Three Months Ended

Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share	$	(0.35	)	$	(0.10	)

The dilutive effect of the potential exercise of outstanding stock-based awards to acquire common shares is calculated using the treasury stock method. As a result of the Company incurring a loss from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and October 2, 2011, potential incremental common shares of 1,024,000 and 826,000, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS for each period because the effect would have been anti-dilutive. In addition, the following options to purchase shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares:

	Three Months Ended

On August 10, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized up to $50 million in funds for use in a common share repurchase program with an expiration of June 30, 2013. On August 8, 2012 the Board of DIrectors of the Company authorized up to an additional $50 million in funds associated with the common share repurchase program and an extension of the expiration date to June 30, 2014. The common share repurchase program authorizes the purchase of shares of the Company's common stock on the open market or in private transactions from time to time, depending on market conditions and certain governing loan covenants. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company repurchased 726,745 shares on the open market at an average price $17.73 per share as compared to 219,200 shares on the open market at an average price of $14.23 per share during the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Subsequent Events

On October 17, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized amendments to the Company's defined benefit and defined contribution 401(k) retirement plans for U.S., non-bargaining employees. The defined benefit pension plan amendment freezes accruals for all non-bargaining employees effective January 1, 2014. The defined contribution 401(k) plan amendment increases the Company's maximum matching contribution from 3.5% to 4.0% of pay and offers all domestic non-bargaining employees a Company non-elective contribution equal to 3.0% of the employee's pay. This amendment is also effective as of January 1, 2014. The Company expects to recognize a pre-tax curtailment charge of approximately $2.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 related to the defined benefit plan change.

On November 5, 2012, Briggs & Stratton Representação de Motores e Produtos de Força do Brasil Ltda. (“Briggs Brazil”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement with the shareholders of Companhia Caetano Branco, of Brazil (“Branco”), under which Briggs Brazil agreed to purchase all of the common stock of Branco from the shareholders for $60 million in cash, subject to post-closing adjustments. The closing is expected to occur within three to four months of the agreement date and is subject to conditions customarily associated with a purchase of this type.

Branco is a leading brand in the Brazilian light power equipment market with a broad range of outdoor power equipment used primarily in light commercial applications in Brazil. Its products, including generators, water pumps, and light construction equipment, are sold through its independent network of over 1200 dealers throughout Brazil. The Company anticipates financing the transaction from cash on hand and/or its existing credit facilities. Branco has annual sales of approximately $40 million with operating margins ranging from approximately 13% to 17% across its various product lines.

Commitments And Contingencies

Commitments and Contingencies

Briggs & Stratton is subject to various unresolved legal actions that arise in the normal course of its business. These actions typically relate to product liability (including asbestos-related liability), patent and trademark matters, and disputes with customers, suppliers, distributors and dealers, competitors and employees.

On March 19, 2010, plaintiffs filed a complaint in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in Canada (Robert Foster et al. v. Sears Canada, Inc. et al., Docket No. 766-2010) against the Company and other engine and lawnmower manufacturers alleging that the horsepower labels on the products they purchased were inaccurate and that the Company conspired with other engine and lawnmower manufacturers to conceal the true horsepower of these engines. On May 3, 2010, other plaintiffs filed a complaint in the Montreal Superior Court in Canada (Eric Liverman, et al. v. Deere & Company, et al., Docket No. 500-06-000507-109). Both Canadian complaints contain allegations and seek relief under Canadian law similar to the litigation filed in the U.S. regarding horsepower labeling which was settled and approved by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin on August 26, 2010. The Company is evaluating the Canadian complaints and has not yet filed an answer or other responsive pleading to either one.

On May 14, 2010, the Company notified retirees and certain retirement eligible employees of various changes to the Company-sponsored retiree medical plans. The purpose of the amendments was to better align the plans offered to both hourly and salaried retirees. On August 16, 2010, a putative class of retirees who retired prior to August 1, 2006 and the United Steel Workers filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin (Merrill, Weber, Carpenter, et al; United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union, AFL-CIO/CLC v. Briggs & Stratton Corporation; Group Insurance Plan of Briggs & Stratton Corporation; and Does 1 through 20, Docket No. 10-C-0700), contesting the Company's right to make these changes. In addition to a request for class certification, the complaint seeks an injunction preventing the alleged unilateral termination or reduction in insurance coverage to the class of retirees, a permanent injunction preventing defendants from ever making changes to the retirees' insurance coverage, restitution with interest (if applicable) and attorneys' fees and costs. The Company moved to dismiss the complaint and believes the changes are within its rights. On April 21, 2011, the district court issued an order granting the Company's motion to dismiss the complaint. The plaintiffs filed a motion with the court to reconsider its order on May 17, 2011, and on August 24, 2011 the court granted the motion and vacated the dismissal of the case. The Company then filed a motion with the court to appeal its decision directly to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, but the court denied this motion on February 29, 2012. On October 9, 2012 the court granted the parties' unopposed motion for class certification. Discovery is underway in the case.

Although it is not reasonably possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss, the Company believes the unresolved legal actions will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

Derivative Instruments & Hedging Activities

The Company enters into derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges to manage certain interest rate, foreign currency and commodity exposures. Company policy allows derivatives to be used only for identifiable exposures and, therefore, the Company does not enter into hedges for trading purposes where the sole objective is to generate profits.

The Company formally designates the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure and documents both the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge. The Company formally assesses, both at the inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in the forecasted cash flows of the related underlying exposure. Because of the high degree of effectiveness between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure being hedged, fluctuations in the value of the derivative instruments are generally offset by changes in the forecasted cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. Derivative financial instruments are recorded on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. The effective portion of gains or losses on the derivative designated as cash flow hedges are reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (AOCI) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of a financial instrument's change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.

The Company enters into interest rate swaps to manage a portion of its interest rate risk from financing certain dealer and distributor inventories through a third party financing source. The swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and are used to effectively fix the interest payments to a third party financing source, exclusive of lender spreads, ranging from 1.36% to 1.60% for a notional principal amount of $85 million through July 2017.

The Company enters into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge the risk from forecasted third party and intercompany sales or payments denominated in foreign currencies. These obligations generally require the Company to exchange foreign currencies for U.S. Dollars, Euros, Japanese Yen, Australian Dollars or Canadian Dollars. These contracts generally do not have a maturity of more than twenty-four months.

The Company uses raw materials that are subject to price volatility. The Company hedges a portion of its exposure to the variability of cash flows associated with commodities used in the manufacturing process by entering into forward purchase contracts or commodity swaps. Derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used by the Company to reduce exposure to variability in cash flows associated with future purchases of natural gas and aluminum. These contracts generally do not have a maturity of more than twenty-four months.

The Company has considered the counterparty credit risk related to all its interest rate, foreign currency and commodity derivative contracts and deems any risk of counterparty default to be minimal.

The notional amount of derivative contracts outstanding at the end of the period is indicative of the level of the Company’s derivative activity during the period. As of September 30, 2012 and July 1, 2012, the Company had the following outstanding derivative contracts (in thousands):

Net Periodic Expense	$	7,001		$	3,927		$	2,290		$	3,060

The Company expects to make benefit payments of approximately $3.0 million attributable to its non-qualified pension plans during fiscal 2013. During the first three months of fiscal 2013, the Company made payments of approximately $0.7 million for its non-qualified pension plans. The Company anticipates making benefit payments of approximately $19.7 million for its other postretirement benefit plans during fiscal 2013. During the first three months of fiscal 2013, the Company made payments of $4.7 million for its other postretirement benefit plans.

On July 6, 2012, the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21 Act) was signed into law. The MAP-21 Act included certain pension-related provisions which included changes to the methodology used to determine discount rates for ERISA funding purposes for qualified defined benefit pension plans. Based on historical interest rates, the MAP-21 Act allows plan sponsors to utilize a higher discount rate to value pension liabilities, which results in lower required pension plan contributions under ERISA. Subsequent to filing the Company's recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company learned of the final interest rates published by the Internal Revenue Service used to calculate minimum pension  contributions under the Map-21 Act. Based upon the current regulations and actuarial studies the Company estimates that it will make required minimum contributions to the qualified pension plan of approximately $30 million during fiscal 2013. During the first three months of fiscal 2013, the Company made cash contributions of $5.5 million to the qualified pension plan. The Company may be required to make further contributions in future years depending upon the actual return on plan assets and the funded status of the plan in future periods.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

The following guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels:

Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-driven valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3: Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.

The following table presents information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2012 and July 1, 2012 (in thousands):

			Fair Value Measurement Using
	September 30, 2012		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets:
Derivatives	$	732	$	—	$	732	$	—
Liabilities:
Derivatives	$	7,709	$	—	$	7,709	$	—
	July 1, 2012		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets:
Derivatives	$	1,926	$	—	$	1,926	$	—
Liabilities:
Derivatives	$	11,303	$	—	$	11,303	$	—

The fair value for Level 2 measurements are based upon the respective quoted market prices for comparable instruments in active markets, which include current market pricing for forward purchases of commodities, foreign currency forwards, and current interest rates.

The estimated fair value of the Company's Senior Notes at September 30, 2012 and July 1, 2012 was $257.4 million and $241.0 million, respectively, compared to the carrying value of $225.0 million. The estimated fair value of the Senior Notes are based on quoted market prices for similar instruments and is, therefore, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The carrying value of the Revolver and Short-Term Debt approximates the fair value since the underlying rate of interest is variable based upon LIBOR rates.  

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, and accounts payable are reasonable estimates of their fair values at September 30, 2012 and July 1, 2012 due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

On December 15, 2010, the Company issued $225 million of 6.875% Senior Notes ("Senior Notes") due December 15, 2020.  

On October 13, 2011, the Company entered into a $500 million multicurrency credit agreement (the “Revolver”), which replaced the Company's prior amended and restated multicurrency credit agreement. The Revolver has a term of five years and all outstanding borrowings on the Revolver are due and payable on October 13, 2016. The initial maximum availability under the revolving credit facility is $500 million. Availability under the revolving credit facility is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. The Company may from time to time increase the maximum availability under the revolving credit facility by up to $250 million if certain conditions are satisfied.

The Senior Notes and Revolver contain restrictive covenants. These covenants include restrictions on the Company’s ability to: pay dividends; repurchase shares; incur indebtedness; create liens; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; consolidate or merge with other entities; sell or lease all or substantially all of its assets; and dispose of assets or the proceeds of sales of its assets. The Revolver contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and impose a maximum average leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

Restructuring Actions [Abstract]

Restructuring and Related Activities Disclosure

Restructuring Actions

In January 2012, the Company announced plans to reduce manufacturing capacity through closure of its Newbern, Tennessee and Ostrava, Czech Republic plants, as well as the reconfiguration of its plant in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. In April 2012, the Company announced plans to further reduce manufacturing costs through consolidation of its Auburn, Alabama manufacturing facility as well as the reduction of approximately 10% of the Company's salaried headcount. During fiscal 2012, the Company ceased manufacturing operations at its Newbern, Tennessee and Ostrava, Czech Republic plants, carried out the reconfiguration of the Poplar Bluff, Missouri plant and implemented the salaried headcount reductions.

The Company reports restructuring charges associated with manufacturing and related initiatives as costs of goods sold within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. Restructuring charges reflected as costs of goods sold include, but are not limited to, termination and related costs associated with manufacturing employees, asset impairments and accelerated depreciation relating to manufacturing initiatives, and other costs directly related to the restructuring initiatives implemented. The Company reports all other non-manufacturing related restructuring charges as selling, general and administrative expenses on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations. The closing of the Company's facility in Newbern, Tennessee affected approximately 240 regular employees and 450 temporary employees. Additionally, the closing of the Ostrava, Czech Republic facility affected approximately 77 regular employees. There were no significant employment changes at the Poplar Bluff, Missouri facility as a result of the idling of certain assets. Approximately 250 regular employees were affected by the Auburn, Alabama facility consolidation. The 10% reduction of the Company's salaried workforce affected approximately 210 employees globally.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company completed the sale of its dormant manufacturing facility in Jefferson, Wisconsin and a land parcel adjacent to its Ostrava, Czech Republic plant.

The Company recorded pre-tax charges of $5.1 million ($3.3 million after tax or $0.07 per diluted share) during the three months ended September 30, 2012 related to the restructuring actions. The Engines Segment and Products Segment recorded $1.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of pre-tax restructuring charges within gross profit during the three months ended September 30, 2012.
