ASTEC INDUSTRIES, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar and share amounts in thousands, except per share amounts unless otherwise specified)

Note 1.  Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.  It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Astec Industries, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

Dollar and share amounts shown are in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise specified.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity," which raises the previous threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations and requires new disclosures for individually material disposal transactions that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation.  The standard also allows companies to have significant continuing involvement and continuing cash flows with the discontinued operation.  The standard requires the reclassification of assets and liabilities of a discontinued operation in the balance sheet for all periods presented.  The standard is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and is to be implemented prospectively.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," which supersedes existing revenue guidance under U.S. GAAP.  The standard's core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  The implementation of this new standard will require companies to use more judgment and to make more estimates than under current guidance.  The standard is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  The Company plans to adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2017.  The Company has not yet determined what impact, if any, the adoption of this new standard will have on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Note 2.  Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share are determined by dividing earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period.  Diluted earnings per share include the potential dilutive effects of options, restricted stock units and shares held in the Company's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan.

The following table sets forth the computation of net income attributable to controlling interest and the number of basic and diluted shares used in the computation of earnings per share:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

Denominator for diluted earnings per share		23,099		23,069		23,101		23,075

Antidilutive options are not included in the diluted earnings per share computation.  The number of antidilutive options in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was not material.

Note 3.  Receivables

Receivables are net of allowances for doubtful accounts of $1,807 and $1,708 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Note 4.  Inventories

Inventories consist of the following:

	June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013
Raw materials and parts	$	148,470	$	139,372
Work-in-process		82,732		74,663
Finished goods		104,043		99,812
Used equipment		28,853		28,466
Total	$	364,098	$	342,313

Note 5.  Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation of $217,409 and $207,986 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Note 6.  Fair Value Measurements

The Company has various financial instruments that must be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including marketable debt and equity securities held by Astec Insurance Company ("Astec Insurance"), the Company's captive insurance company, and marketable equity securities held in an unqualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP").  The obligations of the Company associated with the financial assets held in the SERP also constitute a liability of the Company for financial reporting purposes and are included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets.  The Company's subsidiaries also occasionally enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, revolving debt and accounts payable approximates their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.  Investments are carried at their fair value based on quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or, where no quoted prices exist, other observable inputs for the asset.  The fair values of foreign currency exchange contracts are based on quotations from various banks for similar instruments using models with market based inputs.

9

   Financial assets and liabilities are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.  The inputs used to measure the fair value are identified in the following hierarchy:

Level 1 -	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 -	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; or unadjusted  quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or   inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.
Level 3 -	Inputs reflect management's best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing  the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in   the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

As indicated in the tables below (which excludes the Company's pension assets), the Company has determined that all of its financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are level 1 and level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as defined above:

The Company reevaluates the volume of trading activity for each of its investments at the end of each quarter and adjusts the level within the fair value hierarchy as needed.  There were no changes in fair value hierarchy level designations between December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014.

The trading equity investments noted above are valued at their fair value based on their quoted market prices, and the debt securities are valued based upon a mix of observable market prices and model driven prices derived from a matrix of observable market prices for assets with similar characteristics obtained with the assistance of a nationally recognized first party pricing service.  Additionally, a significant portion of the SERP's investments in trading equity securities are in money market and mutual funds.  As these money market and mutual funds are held in a SERP, they are also included in the Company's liability under its SERP.

Trading debt securities are comprised of marketable debt securities held by Astec Insurance. Astec Insurance has an investment strategy that focuses on providing regular and predictable interest income from a diversified portfolio of high-quality fixed income securities.

Net unrealized gains or losses incurred during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 on investments still held as of the end of each reporting period amounted to a gain of $61 and a loss of $251, respectively.  Net unrealized gains or losses incurred during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 on investments still held as of the end of each reporting period amounted to a gain of $89 and a loss of $114, respectively.

Note 7.  Debt

On April 12, 2012, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with Wells Fargo whereby Wells Fargo extended to the Company an unsecured line of credit of up to $100 million including a sub-limit for letters of credit of up to $25 million. The amended and restated credit agreement replaced the expiring $100 million credit facility between the Company and Wells Fargo. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the highest amount of outstanding borrowings at any time under the facility was $16,061.  As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 there were no outstanding borrowings under the line of credit facility.  Letters of credit totaling $5,978 were outstanding under the credit facility as of June 30, 2014, resulting in additional borrowing ability of $94,022 under the credit facility. The credit agreement has a five-year term expiring in April 2017. Borrowings under the agreement are subject to an interest rate equal to the daily one-month LIBOR rate plus a 0.75% margin, resulting in a rate of 0.91% as of June 30, 2014. The unused facility fee is 0.175%. Interest only payments are due monthly. The amended and restated credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, including provisions concerning required levels of annual net income, minimum tangible net worth and maximum allowed capital expenditures. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2014.

The Company's South African subsidiary, Osborn Engineered Products SA (Pty) Ltd ("Osborn"), has a credit facility of $8.9 million (ZAR 95 million) with a South African bank to finance short-term working capital needs, as well as to cover performance letters of credit, advance payment and retention guarantees. As of June 30, 2014, Osborn had $2.2 million of outstanding borrowings (which is included in other current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet) and $3.2 million in performance, advance payment and retention guarantees outstanding under the facility. The facility is unsecured and a 0.75% unused facility fee is charged if less than 50% of the facility is utilized. As of June 30, 2014, Osborn had available credit under the facility of $3.5 million. The interest rate is 0.25% less than the South Africa prime rate, resulting in a rate of 8.75% as of June 30, 2014.

The Company's Brazilian subsidiary, Astec do Brasil Fabricacao de Equipamentos Ltda. ("Astec Brazil"), has an outstanding $2.3 million working capital loan from a Brazilian bank, which has an interest rate of 12.5% and which matures in May 2016.  Additionally, Astec Brazil has various 5-year equipment financing loans outstanding with another Brazilian bank in the aggregate of $1.6 million as of June 30, 2014 that have interest rates of 3.5% to 6.0%.  Astec Brazil's loans are shown included in the accompanying balance sheets as other current liabilities ($0.4 million) and other long-term liabilities ($3.5 million).

Note 8.  Product Warranty Reserves

The Company warrants its products against manufacturing defects and performance to specified standards. The warranty period and performance standards vary by market and uses of its products, but generally range from three months to one year or up to a specified number of hours of operations. The Company estimates the costs that may be incurred under its warranties and records a liability at the time product sales are recorded.  The product warranty liability is primarily based on historical claim rates, nature of claims and the associated cost.

Changes in the Company's product warranty liability for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 are as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2014			2013			2014			2013
Reserve balance, beginning of the period	$	13,494		$	11,254		$	12,716		$	11,052
Warranty liabilities accrued		4,461			3,507			8,132			6,267
Warranty liabilities settled		(4,330	)		(2,870	)		(7,247	)		(5,352	)
Other		477			(201	)		501			(277	)
Reserve balance, end of the period	$	14,102		$	11,690		$	14,102		$	11,690

Note 9.  Accrued Loss Reserves

The Company accrues reserves for losses related to known workers' compensation and general liability claims that have been incurred but not yet paid or are estimated to have been incurred but not yet reported to the Company.  The undiscounted reserves are actuarially determined based on the Company's evaluation of the type and severity of individual claims and historical information, primarily its own claims experience, along with assumptions about future events.  Changes in assumptions, as well as changes in actual experience, could cause these estimates to change in the future.  Total accrued loss reserves were $7,607 as of June 30, 2014 and $7,344 as of December 31, 2013, of which $3,731 and $4,016 were included in other long-term liabilities as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Note 10.  Income Taxes

The Company's combined effective income tax rate was 35.7% and 36.6% for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The Company's combined effective income tax rate was 34.4% and 33.1% for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The Company's effective tax rate for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 includes the effect of state income taxes and other discrete items but does not include benefits for research and development tax credits given that Congress had not extended the research and development credit to 2014 as of June 30, 2014.  The Company's effective tax rate for the three-month period ended June 30, 2013 included a benefit for research and development tax credits relating to research and development expenditures incurred during the second quarter of 2013.  The Company's effective tax rate for the six-month period ended June 30, 2013 included a benefit for research and development tax credits relating to research and development expenditures incurred during the first two quarters of 2013 as well as the entire 2012 calendar year given that Congress did not extend the tax credit for the 2012 calendar year until January of 2013.

The Company's liability recorded for uncertain tax positions as of June 30, 2014 has not changed significantly in amount or composition since December 31, 2013.  

Note 11.  Segment Information

Due to the recent change in the Company's chief operating decision maker,  sale of a Company subsidiary and other Company product lines as well as the transfer of responsibility for certain product lines between Company subsidiaries, the composition of the Company's reportable segments was changed as of January 1, 2014.  Historical segment information presented for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 has been reclassified to reflect the new segment structure.  The Company now has three reportable segments, each of which is comprised of multiple business units that offer similar products and services and meet the requirements for aggregation. A brief description of each segment is as follows:

12

Infrastructure Group - This segment consists of five business units, three of which design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of portable, stationary and relocatable hot-mix asphalt plants, asphalt pavers, material transfer vehicles, milling machines and paver screeds. The other two business units in this segment operate as Company-owned dealers in the foreign countries in which they are domiciled.  These two business units sell, service and install products produced by the manufacturing subsidiaries of the Company, and a majority of their sales are to customers in the infrastructure industry.The principal purchasers of the products produced by this group are asphalt producers, highway and heavy equipment contractors and foreign and domestic governmental agencies.

Aggregate and Mining Group - This segment consists of eight business units that design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of jaw crushers, cone crushers, horizontal shaft impactors, vertical shaft impactors, material handling, roll rock crushers and stationary rockbreaker systems, vibrating feeders and high frequency vibrating screens, conveyors, inclined, vertical and horizontal screens and sand classifying and washing equipment. The principal purchasers of products produced by this group are distributors, open mine operators, quarry operators, port operators, highway and heavy equipment contractors and foreign and domestic governmental agencies.  This group includes the operations of Telestack Limited ("Telestack"), which was acquired in April 2014.

Energy Group - This segment consists of five business units that design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of drilling rigs for the oil and gas, geothermal and water well industries, high pressure diesel pump trailers for fracking and cleaning oil and gas wells, a variety of industrial heaters to fit a broad range of applications including heating equipment for refineries, oil sands and energy related processing, heat transfer processing equipment, thermal fluid storage tanks, waste heat recovery equipment, and whole-tree pulpwood and biomass chippers and horizontal grinders. The principal purchasers of products produced by this group are oil, gas and water well drilling industry contractors, processors of oil, gas and biomass for energy production and contractors in the construction and demolition recycling markets.

Corporate - This category consists of business units that do not meet the requirements for separate disclosure as an operating segment and includes the Company's parent company, Astec Industries, Inc., and Astec Insurance Company, a Company-owned captive insurance company. The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources to its operating segments based on profit or loss from operations before U.S. federal income taxes and corporate overhead and thus these costs are included in the Corporate category.

Note 12.  Contingent Matters

Certain customers have financed purchases of Company products through arrangements in which the Company is contingently liable for customer debt of $1,301 and $693 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  The maximum potential amount of future payments for which the Company would be liable was equal to $1,301 as of June 30, 2014.  These arrangements also provide that the Company will receive the lender's full security interest in the equipment financed if the Company is required to fulfill its contingent liability under these arrangements.  The Company has recorded a liability of $104 related to these guarantees as of June 30, 2014.

In addition, the Company is contingently liable under letters of credit issued by Wells Fargo totaling $5,978 as of June 30, 2014, including a $2,837 letter of credit guaranteeing certain Astec Brazil bank debt.  The outstanding letters of credit expire at various dates through November 2017.  As of June 30, 2014, Osborn is contingently liable for a total of $3,166 in performance letters of credit, advance payments and retention guarantees.  As of June 30, 2014, Astec Australia is contingently liable for a total of $702 in performance bank guarantees.  The maximum potential amount of future payments under these letters of credit and guarantees for which the Company could be liable is $9,846 as of June 30, 2014.

The Company is currently a party to various claims and legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business.  If management believes that a loss arising from such claims and legal proceedings is probable and can reasonably be estimated, the Company records the amount of the loss (excluding estimated legal fees) or the minimum estimated liability when the loss is estimated using a range and no point within the range is more probable than another.  As management becomes aware of additional information concerning such contingencies, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary.  If management believes that a loss arising from such claims and legal proceedings is either (i) probable but cannot be reasonably estimated or (ii) reasonably possible but not probable, the Company does not record the amount of the loss, but does make specific disclosure of such matter.  Based upon currently available information and with the advice of counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome of its current claims and legal proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, cash flows or results of operations.  However, claims and legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties and rulings unfavorable to the Company could occur.  If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

During 2004, the Company received notice from the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") that it may be responsible for a portion of the costs incurred in connection with an environmental cleanup in Illinois. The discharge of hazardous materials and associated cleanup relate to activities occurring prior to the Company's acquisition of Barber-Greene in 1986. The Company believes that over 300 other parties have received similar notices. At this time, the Company cannot predict whether the EPA will seek to hold the Company liable for a portion of the cleanup costs or the amount of any such liability.  The Company has not recorded a liability with respect to this matter because no estimate of the amount of any such liability can be made at this time.

Note 13.  Shareholders' Equity

Beginning in 2006 and again in 2011, the Company implemented five-year plans to award key members of management restricted stock units ("RSUs") each year based upon the annual financial performance of the Company and its subsidiaries. Each five-year plan allows up to 700 newly issued shares of Company stock to be granted to employees. The number of RSUs granted each year is determined based upon the performance of individual subsidiaries and consolidated annual financial performance, with additional RSUs available for cumulative five-year results. Generally, each award vests at the end of five years from the date of grant, or at the time a recipient retires after reaching age 65, if earlier.

A total of 11 RSUs vested during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014.  The Company withheld 3 shares due to statutory payroll tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of the RSUs in the second quarter of 2014 and used Company funds to remit the related required minimum withholding taxes to the various tax authorities.  No RSUs vested during the second quarter of 2013.   The vesting date fair value of the RSUs that vested during the second quarter of 2014 was $478.  Compensation expense of $264 and $151 was recorded in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to reflect the fair value of RSUs granted (or anticipated to be granted for 2014 and cumulative five-year performance) less estimated forfeitures, amortized over the portion of the vesting period occurring during the periods.

15

A total of 73 and 69 RSUs vested during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The Company withheld 23 and 22 shares due to statutory payroll tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of the RSUs in the first six months of 2014 and 2013, respectively, and used Company funds to remit the related required minimum withholding taxes to the various tax authorities.  The vesting date fair value of the RSUs that vested during the first six months of 2014 and 2013 was $2,981 and $2,405, respectively.  Compensation expense of $569 and $528 was recorded in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to reflect the fair value of RSUs granted (or anticipated to be granted for 2014 and cumulative five-year performance) less estimated forfeitures, amortized over the portion of the vesting period occurring during the periods.

Note 14.  Other Income, net of expenses

Other income, net of expenses for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 is presented below:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2014			2013			2014		2013
Interest income	$	508		$	239		$	719	$	578
Gain (loss) on investments		(1	)		(212	)		206		(164	)
License fee income		72			76			457		290
Other		150			(71	)		162		80
Total	$	729		$	32		$	1,544	$	784

Note 15.  Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company is exposed to certain risks related to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk managed by using derivative instruments is foreign currency risk.  From time to time the Company's foreign subsidiaries enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.  The fair value of the derivative financial instrument is recorded on the Company's balance sheet and is adjusted to fair value at each measurement date.  The changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of income in the current period.  The Company does not engage in speculative transactions nor does it hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.  The average U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount of outstanding foreign currency exchange contracts was $9,989 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. The Company reported $201 of derivative liabilities in accrued and other liabilities at June 30, 2014.  At December 31, 2013, the Company reported $452 of derivative assets in other current assets. The Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net loss on the change in fair value of derivative financial instruments of $26 in the three-month period ended June 30, 2014. In the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net gain of $939.  In the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net loss of $556.  In the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net gain of $1,276.  The Company has no derivatives that were designated as hedges at June 30, 2014.

Note 16.  Business Acquisition

On April 1, 2014, the Company purchased 100% of the stock of Telestack Limited ("Telestack") for a total purchase price of $36,183. The purchase price was paid in cash with $2,500 deposited into escrow for a period of time not to exceed one year and is subject to certain post-closing adjustments.  The preliminary purchase price allocation recorded includes the recognition of $17,962 of goodwill and $14,447 of other intangible assets consisting of trade names (15 year useful life), patents (5 to 10 year useful lives), non-compete agreements (3 year useful life) and customer relationships (11 year useful life).  The Company expects to finalize the purchase price accounting by the end of the first quarter of 2015.  Telestack's operating results are included in the Aggregate and Mining Group beginning in the second quarter of 2014.  The revenue and results of operations of Telestack were not significant in relation to the Company's financial statements for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 and would not have been significant on a pro forma basis to any earlier periods.

16

Telestack, located in Omagh, Northern Ireland, began operations in 1999 and specializes in the complete in-house design, manufacture, installation and commissioning of a complete line of material handling systems used extensively in the port, aggregate and mining industries. Telestack markets its products throughout the world by a combination of direct sales and distribution through dealers. The Company anticipates the synergies between Telestack and the Company's existing aggregate and wood pellet product lines will benefit both companies.

Overview 

The Company is a manufacturer of specialized equipment for asphalt road building, aggregate processing, oil, gas and water drilling and wood processing. The Company's businesses:

•design, engineer, manufacture and market equipment that is used in each phase of road building, including quarrying and crushing the aggregate to producing asphalt or concrete, recycling old asphalt or concrete and applying the asphalt;

•design, engineer, manufacture and market equipment for the aggregate, mining, construction, port and recycling industries;

•design, engineer, manufacture and market additional equipment and components including geothermal drilling, oil and natural gas drilling, industrial heat transfer, biomass recycling, wood chipping and grinding, wood pellet processing; and

•manufacture and sell replacement parts for equipment in each of its product lines.

The Company has 16 manufacturing companies which fall within three business segments, which include the Infrastructure Group, the Aggregate and Mining Group and the Energy Group.

Infrastructure Group – This segment consists of five business units, three of which design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of portable, stationary and relocatable hot-mix asphalt plants, asphalt pavers, material transfer vehicles, milling machines and paver screeds. The other two business units in this segment operate as Company-owned dealers in the foreign countries in which they are domiciled.  These two business units sell, service and install products produced by the manufacturing subsidiaries of the Company, and a majority of their sales are to customers in the infrastructure industry.The principal purchasers of the products produced by this group are asphalt producers, highway and heavy equipment contractors and foreign and domestic governmental agencies.

Aggregate and Mining Group – This segment consists of eight business units that design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of jaw crushers, cone crushers, horizontal shaft impactors, vertical shaft impactors, material handling systems, roll rock crushers and stationary rockbreaker systems, vibrating feeders and high frequency vibrating screens, conveyors, inclined, vertical and horizontal screens and sand classifying and washing equipment. The principal purchasers of products produced by this group are distributors, open mine operators, quarry operators, port operators, highway and heavy equipment contractors and foreign and domestic governmental agencies.

Energy Group – This segment consists of five business units that design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of drilling rigs for the oil and gas, geothermal and water well industries, high pressure diesel pump trailers for fracking and cleaning oil and gas wells, a variety of industrial heaters to fit a broad range of applications including heating equipment for refineries, oil sands and energy related processing, heat transfer processing equipment, thermal fluid storage tanks, waste heat recovery equipment, and whole-tree pulpwood and biomass chippers and horizontal grinders. The principal purchasers of products produced by this group are oil, gas and water well drilling industry contractors, processors of oil, gas and biomass for energy production and contractors in the construction and demolition recycling markets.

Individual Company subsidiaries included in the composition of the Company's revised segments are as follows:

1. Infrastructure Group – Astec, Inc., Roadtec, Inc., Carlson Paving Products, Inc., Astec Australia, Pty Ltd and Astec Mobile Machinery GmbH.

2. Aggregate and Mining Group – Telsmith, Inc., Kolberg-Pioneer, Inc., Johnson Crushers International, Inc., Osborn Engineered Products SA (Pty) Ltd, Breaker Technology, Inc., Astec Mobile Screens, Inc., Astec do Brasil Fabricacao de Equipamentos LTDA and Telestack Ltd (which was acquired on April 1, 12014).

3. Energy Group – Heatec, Inc., CEI, Inc., GEFCO, Inc., Astec Underground, Inc. and Peterson Pacific, Inc.

19

The Company has two other business units that do not meet the requirement for separate disclosure as an operating segment: the Company's parent company, Astec Industries, Inc., and Astec Insurance Company, a Company-owned captive insurance company. The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources to its operating segments based on profit or loss from operations before U.S. federal income taxes and corporate overhead and thus these costs are included in the Corporate category.

The Company's financial performance is affected by a number of factors, including the cyclical nature and varying conditions of the markets it serves. Demand in these markets fluctuates in response to overall economic conditions and is particularly sensitive to the amount of public sector spending on infrastructure development, the amount of privately funded infrastructure development, changes in the price of crude oil, which affects the cost of fuel and liquid asphalt, and changes in the price of steel.

The U.S. Congress funded federal transportation expenditures for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2011 at the 2010 level of $41.1 billion, and it approved short-term funding of federal transportation expenditures for the six-month period ending on June 30, 2012 at the same levels.  In July 2012, President Obama signed into law the "Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act" ("Map-21"), which authorized $105 billion of federal spending on highway and public transportation programs through fiscal year 2014. Map-21 was the first long-term highway legislation enacted since 2005 and continued federal highway and transit funding at 2012 levels with modest increases for inflation. Although Map-21 helped stabilize the federal highway program in the near term, the Company believes a longer multi-year highway program would have the greatest positive impact on the road construction industry and allow its customers to plan and execute longer-term projects. The level of future federal highway construction is uncertain and any future funding may be at lower levels than in the past.

Several other countries have implemented infrastructure spending programs to stimulate their economies. The Company believes these spending programs have had a positive impact on its financial performance; however, the magnitude of that impact cannot be determined.

The public sector spending described above is needed to fund road, bridge and mass transit improvements. The Company believes that increased funding is unquestionably needed to restore the nation's highways to a quality level required for safety, fuel efficiency and mitigation of congestion. In the Company's opinion, amounts needed for such improvements are significantly greater than amounts approved to date, and funding mechanisms such as the federal usage fee per gallon of gasoline, which is currently still at the 1993 level of 18.4 cents per gallon, would likely need to be increased along with other measures to generate the funds needed.

In addition to public sector funding, the economies in the markets the Company serves, the price of oil and its impact on customers' purchasing decisions and the price of steel may each affect the Company's financial performance. Economic downturns generally result in decreased purchasing by the Company's customers, which, in turn, causes reductions in sales and increased pricing pressure on the Company's products. Rising interest rates also typically negatively impact customers' attitudes toward purchasing equipment. The Federal Reserve has maintained historically low interest rates in response to the current economic downturn; however, interest rates may increase during the remainder of 2014 and thereafter.

Significant portions of the Company's revenues relate to the sale of equipment involved in the production, handling, recycling or installation of asphalt mix. Liquid asphalt is a by-product of oil production. An increase in the price of oil increases the cost of asphalt, which is likely to decrease demand for asphalt and therefore decrease demand for certain Company products. While increasing oil prices may have a negative financial impact on many of the Company's customers, the Company's equipment can use a significant amount of recycled asphalt pavement, thereby mitigating the effect of increased oil prices on the final cost of asphalt for the customer. The Company continues to develop products and initiatives to reduce the amount of oil and related products required to produce asphalt mix. Oil price volatility makes it difficult to predict the costs of oil-based products used in road construction such as liquid asphalt and gasoline. The Company's customers appear to be adapting their prices in response to the fluctuating oil prices, and the fluctuations did not appear to significantly impair equipment purchases in 2013 or the first half of 2014. The Company expects oil prices to continue to fluctuate in 2014 and thereafter.  Minor fluctuations in oil prices should not have a significant impact on customers' buying decisions. However, political uncertainty in oil producing countries, interruptions in oil production due to disasters, whether natural or man-made, or other economic factors could significantly impact oil prices, which could negatively impact demand for the Company's products.

Contrary to the negative impact of higher oil prices on many of the Company's products as discussed above, sales of several of the Company's products, including products manufactured by the Energy Group, which are used to drill for oil and natural gas, would benefit from higher oil and natural gas prices, to the extent that such higher prices lead to further development of oil and natural gas production. The Company believes further development of domestic oil and natural gas production capabilities is needed and would positively impact the domestic economy and the Company's business.

Steel is a major component in the Company's equipment.  Steel prices increased modestly during the first six months of 2014, and a continuing strong demand for steel is expected to cause additional moderate price increases during the third quarter of 2014. The rate of the increase in steel prices has slowed since the raw material supply constraints experienced in first six months of 2014 have subsided, and we anticipate that pricing will soon plateau as pricing pressure from imports increases. The Company continues to utilize forward-looking contracts coupled with advanced steel purchases to minimize the impact of increased steel prices. The Company will continue to review the trends in steel prices in future months and establish future contract pricing accordingly.

In addition to the factors stated above, many of the Company's markets are highly competitive, and its products compete worldwide with a number of other manufacturers and dealers that produce and sell similar products. A weak dollar, combined with improving economic conditions in certain foreign economies, had a positive impact on the Company's international sales in 2010 through mid-2012. The dollar strengthened against many foreign currencies during the later portion of 2012 through mid-2014, which has negatively impacted pricing and the Company's backlog at June 30, 2014 in certain foreign markets.  Increasing domestic interest rates or weakening economic conditions abroad could cause the dollar to further strengthen, which could negatively impact the Company's international sales.

In the United States and internationally, the Company's equipment is marketed directly to customers as well as through dealers. In recent years, approximately 75% to 80% of equipment sold by the Company was sold directly to the end user. The Company expects this ratio to remain relatively consistent through the end of 2014.

The Company is operated on a decentralized basis, and there is a complete management team for each operating subsidiary with oversight by Company Group Presidents.  Finance, insurance, legal, shareholder relations, corporate accounting and other corporate matters are primarily handled at the corporate level (i.e., Astec Industries, Inc., the parent company). The engineering, design, sales, manufacturing and basic accounting functions are all handled at each individual subsidiary. Standard accounting procedures are prescribed and followed in all reporting.

The non-union employees of each subsidiary have the opportunity to earn profit-sharing incentives in the aggregate of up to 10% of each subsidiary's after-tax profit if such subsidiary meets established goals. These goals are based on the subsidiary's return on capital employed, cash flow on capital employed and safety. The profit-sharing incentives for subsidiary presidents are normally paid from a separate corporate pool.

A factory union strike in South Africa began on July 1, 2014 and has forced the temporary closing of our Osborn facility.  The strike could have an impact on the Company's international sales, but the Company does not believe it will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Dividends

On February 28, 2013, the Company's Board of Directors approved a dividend policy pursuant to which the Company began paying a quarterly $0.10 per share dividend on its common stock beginning in the second quarter of 2013.  The actual amount of future quarterly dividends, if any, will be based upon the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows, capital requirements and restrictions under the Company's existing credit agreement, among other factors.  The Board retained the power to modify, suspend or cancel the Company's dividend policy in any manner and at any time it deems necessary or appropriate in the future.  The Company paid quarterly dividends of $0.10 per common share to shareholders beginning in the second quarter of 2013 through the second quarter of 2014. An additional $0.10 per common share dividend was approved by the Board in July 2014 to be paid in late August 2014.

Backlog

The backlog of orders as of June 30, 2014 was $264,095 compared to $247,260 (adjusted for the acquisition of Telestack) as of June 30, 2013, an increase of $16,835, or 6.8%. Domestic backlogs increased $16,739 or 11.9%, and international backlogs remained relatively flat.   The June 30, 2014 backlog was comprised of 59.6% domestic orders and 40.4% international orders, as compared to 56.9% domestic orders and 43.1% international orders as of June 30, 2013.  Included in the June 30, 2014 backlog is $58,660 for three pellet plant orders from one customer. The June 30, 2013 backlog included $20,800 for the first of the three pellet plants which has been delivered to the customer and is producing pellets in production runs while continuing to be evaluated and calibrated as part of the normal new product performance testing. The Company has agreed to finance these first three pellet plant line orders for a two to three-year period and thus revenues will be recorded by the Company as payments are received.  The Company is unable to determine whether the changes in backlogs were experienced by the industry as a whole; however, the Company believes the changes in backlogs reflect the current economic conditions the industry is experiencing.

International sales for the Aggregate and Mining Group remained flat for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, with the added Telestack sales volumes being offset by reductions in the sales volumes by the Company's other subsidiaries in this group.  International sales increases in Europe, China and other Asian countries were offset by declines in sales in Canada, Africa, Brazil and other South American countries.  Parts sales for this group decreased 10.7% for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.

Energy Group: Sales in this group were $51,980 for the second quarter of 2014 compared to $44,489 for the same period in 2013, a decrease of $7,491 or 16.8%.  Domestic sales for the Energy Group increased $7,095 or 20.5% for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 due primarily to stronger wood grinder, wood chipper and industrial heater sales.  International sales for the Energy Group increased $396 or 4.0% for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.  The increase in international sales occurred primarily in the Middle East, Canada and Brazil, offset by a decline in sales in Africa.  Parts sales for this group decreased 9.0% for the second quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013 due to declines in most product lines except wood grinder and chipper related parts.

The decreases in international sales occurred primarily in Canada, Africa, South America, Mexico and Russia, offset by increased sales in China and other Asian countries as well as in the post-Soviet States excluding Russia.  Parts sales for this group decreased 7.6% for the first six months of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.

Infrastructure Group: Segment profit for this group was $11,808 for the second quarter of 2014 compared to $6,103 for the same period in 2013, an increase of $5,705 or 93.5%. The group's profits between periods were positively impacted by a $14,831 increase in sales volume and an improvement in gross margins from 18.8% in the second quarter of 2013 to 21.2% in the same period in 2014.

Aggregate and Mining Group: Segment profit for this group was $11,158 for the second quarter of 2014 compared to $11,141 for the same period in 2013, an increase of $17 or 0.2%.  This group's sales increased by $6,807 primarily due to the inclusion of sales by Telestack, which was acquired on April 1, 2014; however, Telestack's sales during the quarter did not result in an increase to segment profits due to the required acquisition date inventory write-up to fair value on its opening balance sheet.

Energy Group: Segment profit for this group was $2,946 for the second quarter of 2014 compared to $2,235 for the second quarter of 2013, an increase of $711 or 31.8%.  The increase in this group's profits, which was due to an increase in sales of $7,491, was negatively impacted by a decrease of 130 basis points in gross margins and increased selling, general, and administrative expenses of $636.

Corporate Group: The Corporate Group had a loss of $11,323 for the second quarter of 2014 compared to a loss of $8,190 for the second quarter of 2013, an increase in loss of $3,133 or 38.3%.  The decrease in results in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the second quarter of 2013 is due primarily to increased consolidated U.S. federal income taxes, which are recorded on the parent company books, as well as increased salaries and profit sharing expenses.

Infrastructure Group: Segment profit for this group was $20,604 for the first six months of 2014 compared to $18,981 for the same period in 2013, an increase of $1,623 or 8.6%. The group's profits between periods were positively impacted by a $4,302 increase in sales volume, a small increase in gross margin percent and reduced state and foreign income taxes, offset by an increase in ConExpo related expenses of $1,940 in the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.

Aggregate and Mining Group: Segment profit for this group was $20,259 for the first six months of 2014 compared to $20,198 for the same period in 2013, an increase of $61 or 0.3%.  This group's profits were positively impacted by an increase in sales of $9,153 and negatively impacted by a 90 basis point decrease in gross margins. The majority of this group's increased sales were related to sales by Telestack, which was acquired on April 1, 2014; however, Telestack's sales during the period did not result in an increase to segment profits due to the required acquisition date inventory write-up to fair value on its opening balance sheet.  Additionally, this group's profits were negatively impacted by an increase in ConExpo related expenses of $1,563 in the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.

Energy Group: Segment profit for this group was $4,870 for the first six months of 2014 compared to $3,426 for the first six months of 2013, an increase of $1,444 or 42.1%. This increase is due primarily to a $6,514 increase in sales and a 150 basis point increase in gross margin, offset by an increase in ConExpo related expenses of $659 in the six months ended June 30, 2014 as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Corporate Group: The Corporate Group had a loss of $20,441 for the first six months of 2014 compared to a loss of $17,450 for the first six months of 2013, an increase in loss of $2,991 or 17.1 %.  The increase in loss in the first six months of 2014 as compared to the first six months of 2013 is due primarily to increased consolidated U.S. federal income taxes, which are recorded on the parent company books, as well as increased salaries, SERP and profit sharing expenses, offset by an increase in investment income.

Liquidity and Capital Resources (dollar amounts in thousands, unless otherwise specified)

The Company's primary sources of liquidity and capital resources are its cash on hand, investments, borrowing capacity under a $100 million revolving credit facility and cash flows from operations. The Company had $18.6 million of cash available for operating purposes as of June 30, 2014, of which $10.7 million was held by the Company's foreign subsidiaries.  At June 30, 2014, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under its credit facilities with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.  Net of letters of credit totaling $6.0 million, the Company had borrowing availability of $94.0 million under the credit facility as of June 30, 2014.  During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the highest amount of outstanding borrowings at any time under the facility was $16.1 million.

The Wells Fargo credit facility is a five-year agreement that was entered into in April 2012.  The amended and restated credit agreement with Wells Fargo continued the Company's previous $100 million revolving credit facility and includes a sub-limit for letters of credit of $25 million.  Borrowings under the agreement are subject to an interest rate equal to the daily one month LIBOR rate plus a 0.75% margin, resulting in a rate of 0.91% as of June 30, 2014.  Interest only payments are due monthly. The unused facility fee is 0.175%.  The amended and restated credit agreement contains certain financial covenants, including provisions concerning required levels of annual net income, minimum tangible net worth and maximum allowed capital expenditures.  The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2014.

As of June 30, 2014, Osborn had $2.2 million of outstanding borrowings (which is included in other current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet) and $3.2 million in performance, advance payment and retention guarantees outstanding under the facility. The facility is unsecured and a 0.75% unused facility fee is charged if less than 50% of the facility is utilized. As of June 30, 2014, Osborn had available credit under the facility of $3.5 million. The interest rate is 0.25% less than the South Africa prime rate, resulting in a rate of 8.75% as of June 30, 2014.

The Company's Brazilian subsidiary, Astec do Brasil Fabricacao de Equipamentos Ltda. ("Astec Brazil"), has a $2.3 million working capital loan from a Brazilian bank with an interest rate of 12.5% which matures in May 2016.  Additionally, Astec Brazil has various 5-year equipment financing loans with another Brazilian bank in the aggregate of $1.6 million as of June 30, 2014 that have interest rates ranging from 3.5% to 6.0%.  Astec Brazil's loans are included in the accompanying balance sheets as other current liabilities ($0.4 million) and other long-term liabilities ($3.5 million).  Additional local financing is expected to be obtained by Astec Brazil as they acquire additional plant equipment during the construction of their manufacturing plant which is currently scheduled to be completed in the third quarter of 2014.

For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014, net cash used by investing activities increased $2,157 compared to the same period in 2013, primarily due to the April 1, 2014 acquisition of Telestack Limited for $34,965 offset by the $31,249 impact of the purchase of short-term investments in the first six months of 2013 and the sale of those investments in the first six months of 2014.

Capital expenditures for 2014, including those by the Company's Brazilian operations, are forecasted to be approximately $33,000. The Company expects to finance these expenditures using currently available cash balances, internally generated funds and available credit under the Company's credit facilities, as well as local financing for the equipment in the new Brazilian manufacturing facility. Capital expenditures are generally for machinery, equipment and facilities used by the Company in the production of its various products.

Note 2.  Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share are determined by dividing earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period.  Diluted earnings per share include the potential dilutive effects of options, restricted stock units and shares held in the Company's Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan.

The following table sets forth the computation of net income attributable to controlling interest and the number of basic and diluted shares used in the computation of earnings per share:

Business Acquisition

Note 16.  Business Acquisition

On April 1, 2014, the Company purchased 100% of the stock of Telestack Limited ("Telestack") for a total purchase price of $36,183. The purchase price was paid in cash with $2,500 deposited into escrow for a period of time not to exceed one year and is subject to certain post-closing adjustments.  The preliminary purchase price allocation recorded includes the recognition of $17,962 of goodwill and $14,447 of other intangible assets consisting of trade names (15 year useful life), patents (5 to 10 year useful lives), non-compete agreements (3 year useful life) and customer relationships (11 year useful life).  The Company expects to finalize the purchase price accounting by the end of the first quarter of 2015.  Telestack's operating results are included in the Aggregate and Mining Group beginning in the second quarter of 2014. The revenue and results of operations of Telestack were not significant in relation to the Company's financial statements for the three-month period ended June 30, 2014 and would not have been significant on a pro forma basis to any earlier periods.

Telestack, located in Omagh, Northern Ireland, began operations in 1999 and specializes in the complete in-house design, manufacture, installation and commissioning of a complete line of material handling systems used extensively in the port, aggregate and mining industries. Telestack markets its products throughout the world by a combination of direct sales and distribution through dealers. The Company anticipates the synergies between Telestack and the Company's existing aggregate and wood pellet product lines will benefit both companies.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.  It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Astec Industries, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity," which raises the previous threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations and requires new disclosures for individually material disposal transactions that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation.  The standard also allows companies to have significant continuing involvement and continuing cash flows with the discontinued operation.  The standard requires the reclassification of assets and liabilities of a discontinued operation in the balance sheet for all periods presented.  The standard is effective for public entities for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and is to be implemented prospectively.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a significant impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers," which supersedes existing revenue guidance under U.S. GAAP.  The standard's core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.  The implementation of this new standard will require companies to use more judgment and to make more estimates than under current guidance.  The standard is effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016.  The Company plans to adopt the new standard effective January 1, 2017.  The Company has not yet determined what impact, if any, the adoption of this new standard will have on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Segment Information [Abstract]

Segment Information

Note 11.  Segment Information

Due to the recent change in the Company's chief operating decision maker,  sale of a Company subsidiary and other Company product lines as well as the transfer of responsibility for certain product lines between Company subsidiaries, the composition of the Company's reportable segments was changed as of January 1, 2014.  Historical segment information presented for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2013 has been reclassified to reflect the new segment structure.  The Company now has three reportable segments, each of which is comprised of multiple business units that offer similar products and services and meet the requirements for aggregation. A brief description of each segment is as follows:

Infrastructure Group - This segment consists of five business units, three of which design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of portable, stationary and relocatable hot-mix asphalt plants, asphalt pavers, material transfer vehicles, milling machines and paver screeds. The other two business units in this segment operate as Company-owned dealers in the foreign countries in which they are domiciled.  These two business units sell, service and install products produced by the manufacturing subsidiaries of the Company, and a majority of their sales are to customers in the infrastructure industry.The principal purchasers of the products produced by this group are asphalt producers, highway and heavy equipment contractors and foreign and domestic governmental agencies.

Aggregate and Mining Group - This segment consists of eight business units that design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of jaw crushers, cone crushers, horizontal shaft impactors, vertical shaft impactors, material handling, roll rock crushers and stationary rockbreaker systems, vibrating feeders and high frequency vibrating screens, conveyors, inclined, vertical and horizontal screens and sand classifying and washing equipment. The principal purchasers of products produced by this group are distributors, open mine operators, quarry operators, port operators, highway and heavy equipment contractors and foreign and domestic governmental agencies.  This group includes the operations of Telestack Limited ("Telestack"), which was acquired in April 2014.

Energy Group - This segment consists of five business units that design, engineer, manufacture and market a complete line of drilling rigs for the oil and gas, geothermal and water well industries, high pressure diesel pump trailers for fracking and cleaning oil and gas wells, a variety of industrial heaters to fit a broad range of applications including heating equipment for refineries, oil sands and energy related processing, heat transfer processing equipment, thermal fluid storage tanks, waste heat recovery equipment, and whole-tree pulpwood and biomass chippers and horizontal grinders. The principal purchasers of products produced by this group are oil, gas and water well drilling industry contractors, processors of oil, gas and biomass for energy production and contractors in the construction and demolition recycling markets.

Corporate - This category consists of business units that do not meet the requirements for separate disclosure as an operating segment and includes the Company's parent company, Astec Industries, Inc., and Astec Insurance Company, a Company-owned captive insurance company. The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources to its operating segments based on profit or loss from operations before U.S. federal income taxes and corporate overhead and thus these costs are included in the Corporate category.

Contingent Matters [Abstract]

Contingent Matters

Note 12.  Contingent Matters

Certain customers have financed purchases of Company products through arrangements in which the Company is contingently liable for customer debt of $1,301 and $693 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.  The maximum potential amount of future payments for which the Company would be liable was equal to $1,301 as of June 30, 2014.  These arrangements also provide that the Company will receive the lender's full security interest in the equipment financed if the Company is required to fulfill its contingent liability under these arrangements.  The Company has recorded a liability of $104 related to these guarantees as of June 30, 2014.

In addition, the Company is contingently liable under letters of credit issued by Wells Fargo totaling $5,978 as of June 30, 2014, including a $2,837 letter of credit guaranteeing certain Astec Brazil bank debt.  The outstanding letters of credit expire at various dates through November 2017.  As of June 30, 2014, Osborn is contingently liable for a total of $3,166 in performance letters of credit, advance payments and retention guarantees.  As of June 30, 2014, Astec Australia is contingently liable for a total of $702 in performance bank guarantees.  The maximum potential amount of future payments under these letters of credit and guarantees for which the Company could be liable is $9,846 as of June 30, 2014.

The Company is currently a party to various claims and legal proceedings that have arisen in the ordinary course of business.  If management believes that a loss arising from such claims and legal proceedings is probable and can reasonably be estimated, the Company records the amount of the loss (excluding estimated legal fees) or the minimum estimated liability when the loss is estimated using a range and no point within the range is more probable than another.  As management becomes aware of additional information concerning such contingencies, any potential liability related to these matters is assessed and the estimates are revised, if necessary.  If management believes that a loss arising from such claims and legal proceedings is either (i) probable but cannot be reasonably estimated or (ii) reasonably possible but not probable, the Company does not record the amount of the loss, but does make specific disclosure of such matter.  Based upon currently available information and with the advice of counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome of its current claims and legal proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, cash flows or results of operations.  However, claims and legal proceedings are subject to inherent uncertainties and rulings unfavorable to the Company could occur.  If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

During 2004, the Company received notice from the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") that it may be responsible for a portion of the costs incurred in connection with an environmental cleanup in Illinois. The discharge of hazardous materials and associated cleanup relate to activities occurring prior to the Company's acquisition of Barber-Greene in 1986. The Company believes that over 300 other parties have received similar notices. At this time, the Company cannot predict whether the EPA will seek to hold the Company liable for a portion of the cleanup costs or the amount of any such liability.  The Company has not recorded a liability with respect to this matter because no estimate of the amount of any such liability can be made at this time.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

Note 6.  Fair Value Measurements

The Company has various financial instruments that must be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including marketable debt and equity securities held by Astec Insurance Company ("Astec Insurance"), the Company's captive insurance company, and marketable equity securities held in an unqualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP").  The obligations of the Company associated with the financial assets held in the SERP also constitute a liability of the Company for financial reporting purposes and are included in other long-term liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets.  The Company's subsidiaries also occasionally enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, other receivables, revolving debt and accounts payable approximates their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.  Investments are carried at their fair value based on quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or, where no quoted prices exist, other observable inputs for the asset.  The fair values of foreign currency exchange contracts are based on quotations from various banks for similar instruments using models with market based inputs.

   Financial assets and liabilities are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.  The inputs used to measure the fair value are identified in the following hierarchy:

Level 1 -	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 -	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities; or unadjusted  quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or  inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability.
Level 3 -	Inputs reflect management's best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing  the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in  the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

As indicated in the tables below (which excludes the Company's pension assets), the Company has determined that all of its financial assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 are level 1 and level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as defined above:

The Company reevaluates the volume of trading activity for each of its investments at the end of each quarter and adjusts the level within the fair value hierarchy as needed.  There were no changes in fair value hierarchy level designations between December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2014.

The trading equity investments noted above are valued at their fair value based on their quoted market prices, and the debt securities are valued based upon a mix of observable market prices and model driven prices derived from a matrix of observable market prices for assets with similar characteristics obtained with the assistance of a nationally recognized first party pricing service.  Additionally, a significant portion of the SERP's investments in trading equity securities are in money market and mutual funds.  As these money market and mutual funds are held in a SERP, they are also included in the Company's liability under its SERP.

Trading debt securities are comprised of marketable debt securities held by Astec Insurance. Astec Insurance has an investment strategy that focuses on providing regular and predictable interest income from a diversified portfolio of high-quality fixed income securities.

Net unrealized gains or losses incurred during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 on investments still held as of the end of each reporting period amounted to a gain of $61 and a loss of $251, respectively.  Net unrealized gains or losses incurred during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 on investments still held as of the end of each reporting period amounted to a gain of $89 and a loss of $114, respectively.

Shareholders' Equity

Note 13.  Shareholders' Equity

Beginning in 2006 and again in 2011, the Company implemented five-year plans to award key members of management restricted stock units ("RSUs") each year based upon the annual financial performance of the Company and its subsidiaries. Each five-year plan allows up to 700 newly issued shares of Company stock to be granted to employees. The number of RSUs granted each year is determined based upon the performance of individual subsidiaries and consolidated annual financial performance, with additional RSUs available for cumulative five-year results. Generally, each award vests at the end of five years from the date of grant, or at the time a recipient retires after reaching age 65, if earlier.

A total of 11 RSUs vested during the three-month period ended June 30, 2014.  The Company withheld 3 shares due to statutory payroll tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of the RSUs in the second quarter of 2014 and used Company funds to remit the related required minimum withholding taxes to the various tax authorities.  No RSUs vested during the second quarter of 2013.   The vesting date fair value of the RSUs that vested during the second quarter of 2014 was $478.  Compensation expense of $264 and $151 was recorded in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to reflect the fair value of RSUs granted (or anticipated to be granted for 2014 and cumulative five-year performance) less estimated forfeitures, amortized over the portion of the vesting period occurring during the periods.

A total of 73 and 69 RSUs vested during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The Company withheld 23 and 22 shares due to statutory payroll tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of the RSUs in the first six months of 2014 and 2013, respectively, and used Company funds to remit the related required minimum withholding taxes to the various tax authorities.  The vesting date fair value of the RSUs that vested during the first six months of 2014 and 2013 was $2,981 and $2,405, respectively.  Compensation expense of $569 and $528 was recorded in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to reflect the fair value of RSUs granted (or anticipated to be granted for 2014 and cumulative five-year performance) less estimated forfeitures, amortized over the portion of the vesting period occurring during the periods.

Note 9.  Accrued Loss Reserves

The Company accrues reserves for losses related to known workers' compensation and general liability claims that have been incurred but not yet paid or are estimated to have been incurred but not yet reported to the Company.  The undiscounted reserves are actuarially determined based on the Company's evaluation of the type and severity of individual claims and historical information, primarily its own claims experience, along with assumptions about future events.  Changes in assumptions, as well as changes in actual experience, could cause these estimates to change in the future.  Total accrued loss reserves were $7,607 as of June 30, 2014 and $7,344 as of December 31, 2013, of which $3,731 and $4,016 were included in other long-term liabilities as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

On April 12, 2012, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with Wells Fargo whereby Wells Fargo extended to the Company an unsecured line of credit of up to $100 million including a sub-limit for letters of credit of up to $25 million. The amended and restated credit agreement replaced the expiring $100 million credit facility between the Company and Wells Fargo.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Note 15.  Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company is exposed to certain risks related to its ongoing business operations. The primary risk managed by using derivative instruments is foreign currency risk.  From time to time the Company's foreign subsidiaries enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate exposure to fluctuations in currency exchange rates.  The fair value of the derivative financial instrument is recorded on the Company's balance sheet and is adjusted to fair value at each measurement date.  The changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of income in the current period.  The Company does not engage in speculative transactions nor does it hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.  The average U.S. dollar equivalent notional amount of outstanding foreign currency exchange contracts was $9,989 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. The Company reported $201 of derivative liabilities in accrued and other liabilities at June 30, 2014.  At December 31, 2013, the Company reported $452 of derivative assets in other current assets. The Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net loss on the change in fair value of derivative financial instruments of $26 in the three-month period ended June 30, 2014. In the three-month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net gain of $939.  In the six-month period ended June 30, 2014, the Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net loss of $556.  In the six-month period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized, as a component of cost of sales, a net gain of $1,276.  The Company has no derivatives that were designated as hedges at June 30, 2014.
