Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - (Unaudited)

June 30, 2017

1.  Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Alamo Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by 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 periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.  The balance sheet at December 31, 2016 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.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "2016 10-K").

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This update is effective as of January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2017. This update could impact the timing and amounts of revenue recognized. The Company is in the process of completing its initial assessment of the standard, which could impact the timing of revenue recognition and the timing of recognition of expenses directly related to revenue contracts. The company expects to complete its assessment in the third quarter of 2017.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” as part of its simplification initiative. ASU 2015-11 amends existing guidance for measuring inventories. This amendment requires the Company to measure inventories recorded using the first-in, first-out method at the lower of cost and net realizable value. This amendment does not change the methodology for measuring inventories recorded using the last-in, first-out method. This amendment was effective prospectively for the Company on January 1, 2017. The adoption of the changes did not materially affect our financial position or results of our operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases.” This update requires that a lessee recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Similar to current guidance, the update continues to differentiate between finance leases and operating leases, however this distinction now primarily relates to differences in the manner of expense recognition over time and in the classification of lease payments in the statement of cash flows. The updated guidance leaves the accounting for leases by lessors largely unchanged from existing GAAP. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective adoption, with certain relief provisions, for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements when adopted. The guidance will become effective for us on January 1, 2019. The impacts that adoption of the ASU is expected to have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures are being evaluated. Additionally, we have not yet determined the effect of the ASU on our internal control over financial reporting or other changes in business practices and processes.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation,” to simplify the accounting and reporting for employee share-based payments. This amendment, among other changes, allows for a policy election such that an entity can continue to estimate forfeitures at the time of the grant or can account for forfeitures as they occur. The amendment requires a modified retrospective approach for the adoption. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirement to reclassify excess tax benefits from operating activities to financing activities. The effect of the change on prior period has been retrospectively adjusted to make the cash

flow statements comparable. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” to improve information on credit losses for financial instruments. The ASU replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses.  The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted beginning in fiscal years beginning after December 18, 2018. The Company has not yet evaluated the effect the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” to address diversity in practice on certain specific cash flow issues. The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early-adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017 and the adoption did not have an effect on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” to simplify how an entity is required to test for goodwill impairment. As a result, an entity will perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the carrying value of a reporting unit against the fair value and will record an impairment for the amount that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value. The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early-adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017 and will apply the new guidance prospectively on goodwill impairment tests.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07 “Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost” to provide income statement classification guidance for components of the net benefit cost. The ASU requires entities to disaggregate the current-service-cost component from the other components of net benefit cost (the “other components”) and present it with other current compensation costs for related employees in the income statement. Furthermore,  entities should present the other components elsewhere in the income statement and outside of income from operations if such a subtotal is presented. The ASU is to be adopted retrospectively and is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years and may be early adopted. The Company expects that adoption will result in a reclassification of the non-service components of pension and post-retirement costs, primarily from cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses to other income (loss) on the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s pensions, including net periodic cost, is disclosed in Note 13 of the 2016 10-K.

2. Accounting Policies

There have been no changes or additions to our significant accounting policies described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2016 10-K.

3.  Business Combinations

On June 6, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Santa Izabel Agro Industria Ltda. ("Santa Izabel"). Santa Izabel designs, manufactures and markets a variety of agricultural implements and trailers sold throughout Brazil. The acquisition price was approximately $10 million. Revenues and earnings subsequent to the acquisition are immaterial during the second quarter of 2017.

On June 26, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Old Dominion Brush Company, Inc. ("Old Dominion"). Old Dominion manufactures and sells replacement brooms for street sweepers and leaf vacuum equipment. The acquisition price was approximately $18 million. There were no revenues or earnings subsequent to the acquisition during the second quarter of 2017.

At the closing date, the Company estimated the value of the intangible assets to be $4.5 million, which are primarily comprised of customer relationships and trade names. This resulted in an allocation to goodwill of $3.0 million, which has been assigned to the Company's Industrial reporting segment. The recognized goodwill is primarily attributable to expected synergies between Old Dominion and the Company's sweeper product line.

9

Certain estimated values are not yet finalized and are subject to change, which could be significant. The Company will finalize the amounts once the necessary information is obtained and the analysis is complete. The following are the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Acquisition date (in thousands):

Accounts receivable	1,690
Inventory	8,563
Property, plant & equipment	959
Intangible assets	4,500
Other liabilities assumed	(1,041	)
Net assets assumed	14,671
Goodwill	3,000
Acquisition Price	17,671

4.  Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable is shown net of sales discounts and the allowance for doubtful accounts.

At June 30, 2017 the Company had $16,275,000 in reserves for sales discounts compared to $13,488,000 at December 31, 2016 related to products shipped to our customers under various promotional programs. The increase was primarily due to additional discounts reserved on the Company's agricultural products sold during the first and second quarter of 2017. The Company reviews the reserve quarterly based on analysis made on each program outstanding at the time. 

The allowance for doubtful accounts was $2,441,000 at June 30, 2017 and $2,501,000 at December 31, 2016.

5.  Inventories

Inventories valued at LIFO cost represented 68% and 67% of total inventory at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.  The excess of current cost over LIFO valued inventories was approximately $8,123,000 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time.  Accordingly, interim LIFO must necessarily be based, to some extent, on management's estimates at each quarter end. Net inventories consist of the following:

(in thousands)	June 30, 2017			December 31, 2016
Finished goods		$	132,238		$	116,667
Work in process		8,940			9,431
Raw materials		11,972			9,662
Total inventory		$	153,150		$	135,760

Inventory obsolescence reserves were $7,074,000 at June 30, 2017 and $7,262,000 at December 31, 2016. 

6. Rental Equipment

Rental equipment is shown net of accumulated depreciation of $11,345,000 and $10,430,000 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The Company recognized depreciation expense of $1,396,000 and $1,699,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively and $2,804,000 and $3,443,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively.

10

7.  Fair Value Measurements

The carrying values of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these items. The carrying value of our debt approximates the fair value as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, as the floating rates on our outstanding balances approximate current market rates. This conclusion was made based on Level 2 inputs.

8. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The following is the summary of changes to the Company's Goodwill for the six months ended June 30, 2017:

(in thousands)
Balance at December 31, 2016	$	74,825
Goodwill acquired	6,301
Translation adjustments	1,304
Balance at June 30, 2017	$	82,430

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $82,430,000 of goodwill, which represents 12% of total assets.

The following is a summary of the Company's definite and indefinite-lived intangible assets net of the accumulated amortization:

(in thousands)	Estimated Useful Lives	June 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
Definite:
Trade names and trademarks	25 years		$	25,288			$	21,914
Customer and dealer relationships	14 years		32,335				28,822
Patents and drawings	3-12 years		1,974				1,954
Total at cost			59,597				52,690
Less accumulated amortization			(9,744		)		(8,152		)
Total net			49,853				44,538
Indefinite:
Trade names and trademarks			5,500				5,500

14.  Contingent Matters

Like other manufacturers, the Company is subject to a broad range of federal, state, local and foreign laws and requirements, including those concerning air emissions, discharges into waterways, and the generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of hazardous substances and waste materials, as well as the remediation of contamination associated with releases of hazardous substances at the Company’s facilities and off-site disposal locations, workplace safety and equal employment opportunities. These laws and regulations are constantly changing, and it is impossible to predict with accuracy the effect that changes to such laws and regulations may have on the Company in the future. Like other industrial concerns, the Company’s manufacturing operations entail the risk of noncompliance, and there can be no assurance that the Company will not incur material costs or other liabilities as a result thereof.

The Company knows that its Indianola, Iowa property is contaminated with chromium which most likely resulted from chrome plating operations which were discontinued before the Company purchased the property. Chlorinated volatile organic compounds have also been detected in water samples on the property, though the source is unknown at this time. The Company voluntarily worked with an environmental consultant and the state of Iowa with respect to these issues and believes it completed its remediation program in June 2006. The work was accomplished within the Company’s environmental liability reserve balance. We requested a “no further action” classification from the state. In January 2009, we received a “no further action” letter from the Iowa Department of

13

Natural Resources, according to which the Iowa property will be subject to certain ongoing environmental covenants that create restrictions regarding the use and future development of the property.

The Company amortizes annual pension income or expense evenly over four quarters. Pension income was $2,000 and pension expense was $45,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively. Pension income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $3,000 and pension expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $90,000 . The Company is not required to contribute to the pension plans for the 2017 plan year but may do so.

On April 6, 2016 we notified all participants in the Gradall Company Hourly Employees’ Pension Plan of our decision to terminate the plan.  Participants in the plan did not lose any benefits but were given a choice between obtaining certain continued annuity benefits that match the benefits offered under the plan or receiving an immediate one-time lump sum payment in total settlement of benefits.The Company made a final contribution and met all legal requirements to effectuate a proper termination of the plan before December 31, 2016.

Supplemental Retirement Plan

In May of 2015, the Board amended the SERP to allow the Board to modify the retirement benefit percentage either higher or lower than 20%. In May of 2016, the Board added additional key management to the plan. As of June 30, 2017, the current retirement benefit (as defined in the plan) for the participants ranges from 10% to 20%.

The net period expense for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $202,000 and $148,000, respectively and $404,000 and $295,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Overview

This report contains forward-looking statements that are based on Alamo Group’s current expectations.  Actual results in future periods may differ materially from those expressed or implied because of a number of risks and uncertainties which are discussed below and in the Forward-Looking Information section.

For the first six months of 2017, the Company's net income increased by approximately 27.3% when compared to the same period in 2016. This increase was primarily the result of sales growth in the Company's Industrial and Agricultural Divisions as well as continued improvement in production efficiencies, lower material costs,control of operating expenses and lower tax rate. Also, improved part sales in most of our product lines were up during the first six months of 2017 compared to the same time in 2016. Negatively influencing both our sales and profits was the effect of the currency translation rates on our non-U.S. results. Alamo's Industrial Division saw a 1.1% increase in sales for the first six months of 2017 as sales of mowing, excavator and sweeping equipment outperformed the same period in 2016, while sales of vacuum trucks and snow removal products declined during the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016. Agricultural sales were up in the first six months of 2017 by 5.5% compared to the first six months of 2016 as new product introductions and a broad demand for our mowing equipment more than offset soft market conditions which continue to affect the agricultural market. European sales for the first six months of 2017 were down in U.S. dollars by 2.5% compared to the same period in 2016 primarily as a result of currency effects. Consolidated income from operations was up 17.3% in the first six months of 2017 as compared to the first six months of 2016. The Company's backlog was $157 million at the end of the first six months of 2017, which was up 20.7% versus the backlog of $130 million at the end of the first six months of 2016. The increase in the Company's backlog was primarily attributable to increased orders in the both the Company's European and Agricultural Division and to a lessor extent the acquisitions of Old Dominion and Santa Izabel.

The Company believes that its markets for the remainder of 2017 will remain challenged and could be negatively affected by a variety of factors such as a continued weakness in the overall economy; sovereign debt issues; credit availability; changes in currency exchange rates; increased levels of government regulations; ongoing weakness in the agricultural sector; increase in input costs; changes in farm incomes due to commodity prices or governmental aid programs; adverse situations that could affect our customers such as animal disease epidemics;

15

extreme weather conditions; repercussions from the pending exit by the U.K. from the European Union (EU); acquisition integration issues; budget constraints or revenue shortfalls in governmental entities and changes in our customers' buying habits due to lack of confidence in the economic outlook.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

Net sales for the second quarter of 2017 were $213,276,000, an increase of $1,787,000, or 0.8% compared to $211,489,000 for the second quarter of 2016.  The increase was mainly attributable to increased demand for our products in the Agricultural Division and to a lessor extent our Industrial Division. This was offset by currency translation effects which continued to negatively impact our European sales.

Net Industrial sales increased during the second quarter by $196,000 or 0.2% to $117,342,000 for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $117,146,000 during the same period in 2016.  The increase was from higher sales of sweepers, excavators, vacuum trucks which were partially offset by a lower sales volume of mowing equipment and weak sales of snow removal products due to the mild winter conditions experienced during the early part of 2017.

Net Agricultural sales were $54,221,000 in the second quarter of 2017 compared to $51,845,000 for the same period in 2016, an increase of $2,376,000 or 4.6%. The increase came from improved demand for agricultural mowers in the markets we serve and new product introductions despite continued soft agricultural market conditions.

Net European sales for the second quarter of 2017 were $41,713,000, a decrease of $785,000 or 1.8% compared to $42,498,000 during the second quarter of 2016.  The decrease primarily was from the negative impact of changes in currency translation rates. This Division did experience higher agricultural sales in the U.K. product lines despite the currency translation rates as markets for our type of product continue to show improvement.

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2017 was $54,679,000 (25.6% of net sales) compared to $52,178,000 (24.7% of net sales) during the same period in 2016, an increase of $2,501,000.  The increase in gross profit during the second quarter of 2017 was due to the higher equipment and parts sales volume from all three Divisions. Also, contributing to the higher margin percent for the quarter were pricing actions, productivity improvements and purchasing initiatives.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $34,522,000 (16.2% of net sales) during the second quarter of 2017 compared to $34,137,000 (16.1% of net sales) during the same period of 2016, an increase of $385,000.

Interest expense was $1,500,000 for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $1,523,000 during the same period in 2016, a decrease of $23,000.  The decrease in 2017 came from lower debt levels during the second quarter of 2017 compared to the second quarter of 2016, despite a marginal increase in interest rates in the second quarter of 2017.

Other income (expense), net was $665,000 of expense for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $242,000 of income during the same period in 2016.  The expense in 2017 and income in 2016 were primarily the result of changes in currency exchange rates.

Provision for income taxes was $5,757,000 (31.9% of income before income tax) in the second quarter of 2017 compared to $6,254,000 (37.2% of income before income tax) during the same period in 2016. The decrease in both taxes as well as the effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2017 was primarily from the recognition of excess tax benefits related to share based payments as a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2016-09. Contributing to a higher effective tax rate in 2016, were losses incurred in certain foreign jurisdictions that did not results in a tax benefit.

The Company’s net income after tax was $12,316,000 or $1.05 per share on a diluted basis for the second quarter of 2017 compared to $10,562,000 or $0.92 per share on a diluted basis for the second quarter of 2016.  The increase of $1,754,000 resulted from the factors described above.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 vs. Six Months Ended June 30, 2016

Net sales for the first six months of 2017 were $428,665,000, an increase of $6,205,000 or 1.5% compared to $422,460,000 for the first six months of 2016. The increase was attributable to increased demand for our products in the Industrial and Agricultural Division. This was offset by currency translation effects which continued to negatively impact our European sales.

Net Industrial sales increased during the first six months by $2,734,000 or 1.1% to $243,158,000 for 2017 compared to $240,424,000 during the same period in 2016. The increase came from higher sales of mowing equipment, sweepers and excavators. This was offset by lower sales of vacuum trucks to non-governmental end users as well as weak sales of snow removal products due to mild weather conditions during the early part of 2017.

Net Agricultural sales were $105,998,000 during the first six months of 2017 compared to $100,507,000 for the same period in 2016, an increase of $5,491,000 or 5.5%. The increase in sales for the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016 were from increased demand for our products despite softness in the overall agricultural market.

Net European sales for the first six months of 2017 were $79,509,000, a decrease of $2,020,000 or 2.5% compared to $81,529,000 during the same period of 2016. The decrease in 2017 was due to the negative affect of currency translation rates as sales of all product lines for this Division were below 2016. The European Division sales in the U.K. improved during the second quarter of 2017 but this division continued to face challenging market conditions in both the U.K. and France.

Gross profit for the first six months of 2017 was $108,843,000 (25.4% of net sales) compared to $102,455,000 (24.3% of net sales) during the same period in 2016, an increase of $6,388,000. The increase in gross profit for the first six months of 2017 came from higher equipment and parts sales in the Industrial and Agricultural Divisions as well as pricing actions, productivity improvements and purchasing initiatives.

SG&A expenses were $68,585,000 (16.0% of net sales) during the first six months of 2017 compared to $68,125,000 (16.1% of net sales) during the same period of 2016, an increase of $460,000.

Interest expense was $2,827,000 for the first six months of 2017 compared to $2,929,000 during the same period in 2016, a decrease of $102,000. The decrease in 2017 came from from lower debt levels during the first six months of 2017 compared to the first six months of 2016, despite a marginal increase in interest rates in the second quarter of 2017.

Other income (expense), net was $(873,000) of expense during the first six months of 2017 compared to $(380,000) of expense in the first six months of 2016. The expense in 2017 and 2016 were primarily the result of changes in exchange rates.

Provision for income taxes was $12,232,000 (33.3%) in the first six months of 2017 compared to $11,918,000 (38.3%) during the same period in 2016. The decrease in the effective tax rate in 2017 was primarily from the recognition of excess tax benefits related to share based payments as a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2016-09.The increased effective tax rate in 2016 is primarily due to a higher portion of our taxable income being generated in jurisdictions with higher tax rates as well as losses incurred in certain foreign jurisdictions that did not result in a tax benefit.

The Company's net income after tax was $24,483,000 or $2.10 per share on a diluted basis for the first six months of 2017 compared to $19,221,000 or $1.67 per share on a diluted basis for the first six months of 2016. The increase of $5,262,000 resulted from the factors described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In addition to normal operating expenses, the Company has ongoing cash requirements which are necessary to operate the Company’s business, including inventory purchases and capital expenditures.  The Company’s inventory and accounts payable levels typically build in the first half of the year and in the fourth quarter in anticipation of the spring and fall selling seasons.  Accounts receivable historically build in the first and fourth quarters of each year as a result of fall preseason sales programs and out of season sales, particularly in our Agricultural Division.  Preseason sales, primarily in the Agricultural Division, help level the Company’s production during the off season.

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had working capital of $342,542,000 which represents an increase of $93,624,000 from working capital of $248,918,000 at December 31, 2016. The increase in working capital was primarily from seasonality and to a lesser extent the acquisitions of Old Dominion and Santa Izabel.

Capital expenditures were $6,268,000 for the first six months of 2017, compared to $6,191,000 during the first six months of 2016.  The Company expects to fund future expenditures from operating cash flows or through its revolving credit facility, described below.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $75,518,000 and $19,836,000 during the six month periods ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities in 2017 resulted from an increase in net borrowings under our bank credit facility due to the acquisitions of Old Dominion and Santa Izabel and seasonal funding of operations.

The Company had $72,353,000 in cash and cash equivalents held by its foreign subsidiaries as of June 30, 2017. The majority of these funds are at our U.K. and Canadian subsidiaries and would not be available for use in the United States without incurring US federal and state tax consequences. The Company plans to use these funds for capital expenditures or acquisitions outside the United States.     

The Company maintains an unsecured revolving credit facility with certain lenders under its Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement ("the Agreement"). The aggregate commitments from lenders under the Agreement is $250,000,000 and, subject to certain conditions, the Company has the option to request an increase in aggregate commitments of up to an additional $50,000,000. The Agreement requires the Company to maintain various financial covenants including a minimum earnings before interest and tax to interest expense ratio, a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum asset coverage ratio. The Agreement also contains various covenants relating to limitations on indebtedness, limitations on investments and acquisitions, limitations on sale of properties and limitations on liens and capital expenditures. The Agreement also contains other customary covenants, representations and events of defaults. Effective December 20, 2016, the Company amended it's revolving credit facility to extend the termination date, reduce LIBOR interest margin and to modify certain financial and other covenants in order to meet the ongoing needs of the Company's business and to allow for greater flexibility in relation to future acquisitions. The expiration date of the revolving credit facility is December 20, 2021. As of June 30, 2017, $146,000,000 was outstanding under the Agreement. On June 30, 2017, $1,607,000 of the revolver capacity was committed to irrevocable standby letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business as required by vendors' contracts resulting in $102,393,000 in available borrowings. As of June 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under the Agreement.

Management believes the Agreement and the Company’s ability to internally generate funds from operations should be sufficient to meet the Company’s cash requirements for the foreseeable future. However, the challenges affecting the banking industry and credit markets in general could potentially cause changes to credit availability, which creates a level of uncertainty.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.  The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of

18

assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Critical Accounting Policies

An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the financial statements.  Management believes that of the Company's significant accounting policies, which are set forth in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "2016 Form 10-K"), the policies relating to the business combinations, allowance for doubtful accounts, sales discounts, inventories-obsolete and slow moving, warranty, and goodwill and other intangible assets involved a higher degree of judgment and complexity. There have been no material changes to the nature of estimates, assumptions and levels of subjectivity and judgment related to critical accounting estimates disclosed in Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of the Company's 2016 Form 10-K.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition.

Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties.  These uncertainties include factors that affect all businesses operating in a global market, as well as matters specific to the Company and the markets it serves.  Particular risks and uncertainties facing the Company include changes in market conditions; ongoing weakness in the agricultural sector; a strong U.S. dollar; increased competition; decreases in the prices of agricultural commodities, which could affect our customers' income levels; increase in input costs; repercussions from the pending exit by the U.K. from the European Union (EU); acquisition integration issues; budget constraints or income shortfalls which could affect the purchases of our type of equipment by governmental customers; credit availability for both the Company and its customers, adverse weather conditions such as droughts, floods, snowstorms, etc. which can affect buying patterns of the Company’s customers and related contractors; the price and availability of critical raw materials, particularly steel and steel products; energy cost; increased cost of new governmental regulations which effect corporations; the potential effects on the buying habits of our customers due to animal disease outbreaks and other epidemics; the Company’s ability to develop and manufacture new and existing products profitably; market acceptance of new and existing products; the Company’s ability to maintain good relations with its employees; the Company's ability to successfully complete acquisitions and operate acquired businesses or assets; and the ability to hire and retain quality employees.

In addition, the Company is subject to risks and uncertainties facing the industry in general, including changes in business and political conditions and the economy in general in both domestic and international markets; weather conditions affecting demand; slower growth in the Company’s markets; financial market changes including increases in interest rates and fluctuations in foreign exchange rates; actions of competitors; the inability of the Company’s suppliers, customers, creditors, public utility providers and financial service organizations to deliver or provide their products or services to the Company; seasonal factors in the Company’s industry; litigation; government actions including budget levels, regulations and legislation, primarily relating to the environment, commerce, infrastructure spending, health and safety; and availability of materials.

19

The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements and to recognize that the statements are not predictions of actual future results.  Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements and from historical results, due to the risks and uncertainties described above, as well as others not now anticipated.  The foregoing statements are not exclusive and further information concerning the Company and its businesses, including factors that could potentially materially affect the Company’s financial results, may emerge from time to time.  It is not possible for management to predict all risk factors or to assess the impact of such risk factors on the Company’s businesses.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

The Company is exposed to various market risks.  Market risks are the potential losses arising from adverse changes in market prices and rates.  The Company does not enter into derivative or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Foreign Currency Risk        

International Sales

A portion of the Company’s operations consists of manufacturing and sales activities in international jurisdictions. The Company primarily manufactures its products in the U.S., U.K., France, Canada, Brazil and Australia.  The Company sells its products primarily in the functional currency within the markets where the products are produced, but certain sales from the Company's U.K. and Canadian operations are denominated in other foreign currencies.  As a result, the Company’s financials, specifically the value of its foreign assets, could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the other markets in which the subsidiaries of the Company distribute their products.

To mitigate the short-term effect of changes in currency exchange rates on the Company’s functional currency-based sales, the Company’s U.K. subsidiaries regularly enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge approximately 90% of its future net foreign currency collections over a period of six months.  As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $2,530,000 outstanding in forward exchange contracts related to accounts receivable.  A 15% fluctuation in exchange rates for these currencies would change the fair value of these contracts by approximately $380,000.  However, since these contracts hedge foreign currency denominated transactions, any change in the fair value of the contracts should be offset by changes in the underlying value of the transaction being hedged.

Exposure to Exchange Rates

The Company translates the assets and liabilities of foreign-owned subsidiaries at rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates in effect during the reporting period. Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity. The total foreign currency translation adjustment for the current quarter increased stockholders’ equity by $7,098,000.

The Company’s earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar as compared to foreign currencies, predominately in Europe and Canada, as a result of the sales of its products in international markets.  Forward currency contracts are used to hedge against the earnings effects of such fluctuations.  The result of a uniform 10% strengthening in the value of the dollar relative to the currencies in which the Company’s sales are denominated would result in a decrease in gross profit of $3,019,000 for the six month period ending June 30, 2017.  Comparatively, the result of a uniform 10% strengthening in the value of the dollar relative to the currencies in which the Company’s sales are denominated would have resulted in a decrease in gross profit of approximately $2,724,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2016.  This calculation assumes that each exchange rate would change in the same direction relative to the U.S. dollar.  In addition to the direct effects of changes in exchange rates, which include a changed dollar value of the resulting sales, changes in exchange rates may also affect the volume of sales or the foreign currency sales price as competitors’ products become more or less attractive.  The Company’s sensitivity analysis of the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates does not factor in a potential change in sales levels or local currency prices. 

20

Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s long-term debt bears interest at variable rates.  Accordingly, the Company’s net income is affected by changes in interest rates.  Assuming the current level of borrowings at variable rates and a two percentage point change for the second quarter 2017 average interest rate under these borrowings, the Company’s interest expense would have changed by approximately $730,000.  In the event of an adverse change in interest rates, management could take actions to mitigate its exposure.  However, due to the uncertainty of the actions that would be taken and their possible effects this analysis assumes no such actions.  Further this analysis does not consider the effects of the change in the level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. 

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of Alamo’s management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer) and Vice-President and Corporate Controller, (Principal Accounting Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).  Based upon the evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer) and Vice-President, Corporate Controller, (Principal Accounting Officer) concluded that the Company’s design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal year that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Alamo Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by 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 periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.  The balance sheet at December 31, 2016 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.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "2016 10-K").

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This update is effective as of January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2017. This update could impact the timing and amounts of revenue recognized. The Company is in the process of completing its initial assessment of the standard, which could impact the timing of revenue recognition and the timing of recognition of expenses directly related to revenue contracts. The company expects to complete its assessment in the third quarter of 2017.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” as part of its simplification initiative. ASU 2015-11 amends existing guidance for measuring inventories. This amendment requires the Company to measure inventories recorded using the first-in, first-out method at the lower of cost and net realizable value. This amendment does not change the methodology for measuring inventories recorded using the last-in, first-out method. This amendment was effective prospectively for the Company on January 1, 2017. The adoption of the changes did not materially affect our financial position or results of our operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases.” This update requires that a lessee recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Similar to current guidance, the update continues to differentiate between finance leases and operating leases, however this distinction now primarily relates to differences in the manner of expense recognition over time and in the classification of lease payments in the statement of cash flows. The updated guidance leaves the accounting for leases by lessors largely unchanged from existing GAAP. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective adoption, with certain relief provisions, for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements when adopted. The guidance will become effective for us on January 1, 2019. The impacts that adoption of the ASU is expected to have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures are being evaluated. Additionally, we have not yet determined the effect of the ASU on our internal control over financial reporting or other changes in business practices and processes.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation,” to simplify the accounting and reporting for employee share-based payments. This amendment, among other changes, allows for a policy election such that an entity can continue to estimate forfeitures at the time of the grant or can account for forfeitures as they occur. The amendment requires a modified retrospective approach for the adoption. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirement to reclassify excess tax benefits from operating activities to financing activities. The effect of the change on prior period has been retrospectively adjusted to make the cash flow statements comparable. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” to improve information on credit losses for financial instruments. The ASU replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses.  The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted beginning in fiscal years beginning after December 18, 2018. The Company has not yet evaluated the effect the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” to address diversity in practice on certain specific cash flow issues. The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early-adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017 and the adoption did not have an effect on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” to simplify how an entity is required to test for goodwill impairment. As a result, an entity will perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the carrying value of a reporting unit against the fair value and will record an impairment for the amount that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value. The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early-adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017 and will apply the new guidance prospectively on goodwill impairment tests.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07 “Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost” to provide income statement classification guidance for components of the net benefit cost. The ASU requires entities to disaggregate the current-service-cost component from the other components of net benefit cost (the “other components”) and present it with other current compensation costs for related employees in the income statement. Furthermore,  entities should present the other components elsewhere in the income statement and outside of income from operations if such a subtotal is presented. The ASU is to be adopted retrospectively and is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years and may be early adopted. The Company expects that adoption will result in a reclassification of the non-service components of pension and post-retirement costs, primarily from cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses to other income (loss) on the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s pensions, including net periodic cost, is disclosed in Note 13 of the 2016 10-K.

On June 6, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Santa Izabel Agro Industria Ltda. ("Santa Izabel"). Santa Izabel designs, manufactures and markets a variety of agricultural implements and trailers sold throughout Brazil. The acquisition price was approximately $10 million. Revenues and earnings subsequent to the acquisition are immaterial during the second quarter of 2017.

On June 26, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Old Dominion Brush Company, Inc. ("Old Dominion"). Old Dominion manufactures and sells replacement brooms for street sweepers and leaf vacuum equipment. The acquisition price was approximately $18 million. There were no revenues or earnings subsequent to the acquisition during the second quarter of 2017.

At the closing date, the Company estimated the value of the intangible assets to be $4.5 million, which are primarily comprised of customer relationships and trade names. This resulted in an allocation to goodwill of $3.0 million, which has been assigned to the Company's Industrial reporting segment. The recognized goodwill is primarily attributable to expected synergies between Old Dominion and the Company's sweeper product line.

Certain estimated values are not yet finalized and are subject to change, which could be significant. The Company will finalize the amounts once the necessary information is obtained and the analysis is complete. The following are the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Acquisition date (in thousands):

Accounts receivable	1,690
Inventory	8,563
Property, plant & equipment	959
Intangible assets	4,500

Inventories

Inventories valued at LIFO cost represented 68% and 67% of total inventory at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively.  The excess of current cost over LIFO valued inventories was approximately $8,123,000 at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method is made only at the end of each year based on the inventory levels and costs at that time.  Accordingly, interim LIFO must necessarily be based, to some extent, on management's estimates at each quarter end. Net inventories consist of the following:

Fair Value Measurements

The carrying values of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, approximate their fair value because of the short-term nature of these items. The carrying value of our debt approximates the fair value as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, as the floating rates on our outstanding balances approximate current market rates. This conclusion was made based on Level 2 inputs.

Contingent Matters

Contingent Matters

Like other manufacturers, the Company is subject to a broad range of federal, state, local and foreign laws and requirements, including those concerning air emissions, discharges into waterways, and the generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of hazardous substances and waste materials, as well as the remediation of contamination associated with releases of hazardous substances at the Company’s facilities and off-site disposal locations, workplace safety and equal employment opportunities. These laws and regulations are constantly changing, and it is impossible to predict with accuracy the effect that changes to such laws and regulations may have on the Company in the future. Like other industrial concerns, the Company’s manufacturing operations entail the risk of noncompliance, and there can be no assurance that the Company will not incur material costs or other liabilities as a result thereof.

The Company knows that its Indianola, Iowa property is contaminated with chromium which most likely resulted from chrome plating operations which were discontinued before the Company purchased the property. Chlorinated volatile organic compounds have also been detected in water samples on the property, though the source is unknown at this time. The Company voluntarily worked with an environmental consultant and the state of Iowa with respect to these issues and believes it completed its remediation program in June 2006. The work was accomplished within the Company’s environmental liability reserve balance. We requested a “no further action” classification from the state. In January 2009, we received a “no further action” letter from the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, according to which the Iowa property will be subject to certain ongoing environmental covenants that create restrictions regarding the use and future development of the property.

Pension income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was $3,000 and pension expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $90,000 . The Company is not required to contribute to the pension plans for the 2017 plan year but may do so.

On April 6, 2016 we notified all participants in the Gradall Company Hourly Employees’ Pension Plan of our decision to terminate the plan.  Participants in the plan did not lose any benefits but were given a choice between obtaining certain continued annuity benefits that match the benefits offered under the plan or receiving an immediate one-time lump sum payment in total settlement of benefits.The Company made a final contribution and met all legal requirements to effectuate a proper termination of the plan before December 31, 2016.

Supplemental Retirement Plan

In May of 2015, the Board amended the SERP to allow the Board to modify the retirement benefit percentage either higher or lower than 20%.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Alamo Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by 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 periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017.  The balance sheet at December 31, 2016 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.  For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "2016 10-K").

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” and most industry-specific guidance. This ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. This update is effective as of January 1, 2018, with early adoption permitted as of January 1, 2017. This update could impact the timing and amounts of revenue recognized. The Company is in the process of completing its initial assessment of the standard, which could impact the timing of revenue recognition and the timing of recognition of expenses directly related to revenue contracts. The company expects to complete its assessment in the third quarter of 2017.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory,” as part of its simplification initiative. ASU 2015-11 amends existing guidance for measuring inventories. This amendment requires the Company to measure inventories recorded using the first-in, first-out method at the lower of cost and net realizable value. This amendment does not change the methodology for measuring inventories recorded using the last-in, first-out method. This amendment was effective prospectively for the Company on January 1, 2017. The adoption of the changes did not materially affect our financial position or results of our operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases.” This update requires that a lessee recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Similar to current guidance, the update continues to differentiate between finance leases and operating leases, however this distinction now primarily relates to differences in the manner of expense recognition over time and in the classification of lease payments in the statement of cash flows. The updated guidance leaves the accounting for leases by lessors largely unchanged from existing GAAP. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective adoption, with certain relief provisions, for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements when adopted. The guidance will become effective for us on January 1, 2019. The impacts that adoption of the ASU is expected to have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures are being evaluated. Additionally, we have not yet determined the effect of the ASU on our internal control over financial reporting or other changes in business practices and processes.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation-Stock Compensation,” to simplify the accounting and reporting for employee share-based payments. This amendment, among other changes, allows for a policy election such that an entity can continue to estimate forfeitures at the time of the grant or can account for forfeitures as they occur. The amendment requires a modified retrospective approach for the adoption. In addition, the amendment eliminates the requirement to reclassify excess tax benefits from operating activities to financing activities. The effect of the change on prior period has been retrospectively adjusted to make the cash flow statements comparable. The Company adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” to improve information on credit losses for financial instruments. The ASU replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses.  The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted beginning in fiscal years beginning after December 18, 2018. The Company has not yet evaluated the effect the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments,” to address diversity in practice on certain specific cash flow issues. The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early-adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017 and the adoption did not have an effect on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” to simplify how an entity is required to test for goodwill impairment. As a result, an entity will perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the carrying value of a reporting unit against the fair value and will record an impairment for the amount that the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the fair value. The ASU is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company early-adopted this ASU on January 1, 2017 and will apply the new guidance prospectively on goodwill impairment tests.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07 “Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost” to provide income statement classification guidance for components of the net benefit cost. The ASU requires entities to disaggregate the current-service-cost component from the other components of net benefit cost (the “other components”) and present it with other current compensation costs for related employees in the income statement. Furthermore,  entities should present the other components elsewhere in the income statement and outside of income from operations if such a subtotal is presented. The ASU is to be adopted retrospectively and is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years and may be early adopted. The Company expects that adoption will result in a reclassification of the non-service components of pension and post-retirement costs, primarily from cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses to other income (loss) on the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s pensions, including net periodic cost, is disclosed in Note 13 of the 2016 10-K.
