THE MANITOWOC COMPANY, INC.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2006 and 2005

1.  Accounting Policies

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations, cash flows and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and the financial position at June 30, 2006 of the company and except as otherwise discussed such adjustments consist of only those of a normal recurring nature. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year and do not contain information included in the company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2005. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2005 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the company’s latest annual report.

All dollar amounts, except share and per share amounts, are in millions of dollars throughout the tables included in these notes unless otherwise indicated.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. See Note 3, “Discontinued Operations,” and Note 6, “Stock Split,” for further details.

2. Acquisition

On May 26, 2006, the company acquired substantially all of the net assets and business operated by McCann’s Engineering & Mfg. Co. (McCann’s).  Headquartered in Los Angeles, California, McCann’s is engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of beverage dispensing equipment primarily used in fast food restaurants, stadiums, cafeterias and convenience stores.  McCann’s primary products are backroom beverage equipment such as carbonators, water boosters and racks.  McCann’s also produces accessory components for beverage dispensers including specialty valves, stands and other stainless steel components.  The aggregate consideration paid for the McCann’s acquisition was $37.1 million, including acquisition costs of $0.7 million.  The acquisition resulted in approximately $28.6 million of goodwill being recognized by the company’s Foodservice segment.  As of June 30, 2006, all excess purchase price over net assets acquired was assigned to goodwill.  The company is in the process of valuing other intangible assets acquired in this acquisition and will assign value to these assets during the third quarter of 2006.

On January 3, 2006, the company acquired certain assets, rights and properties of ExacTech, Inc., a supplier of fabrication, machining, welding, and other services to various parties. Located in Port Washington, Wisconsin, ExacTech, Inc. will provide these services to the company’s U.S. based crane manufacturing facilities. The aggregate consideration paid for the acquisition resulted in approximately $6.5 million of goodwill being recognized by the company’s Crane segment.

3. Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter of 2005, the company decided to close Toledo Ship Repair Company (Toledo Ship Repair), a division of the company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Manitowoc Marine Group, LLC.  Located in Toledo, Ohio, Toledo Ship Repair performed ship repair and industrial repair services. During the third quarter of 2005, the company recorded a $5.2 million pre-tax ($3.8 million after tax) charge for costs related to the closure of the business. This charge included $0.2 million related to severance agreements; $1.0 million for future lease payments; $0.3 million for the write-off of goodwill related to this business; $2.2 million for the write-down of certain assets (primarily property, plant and equipment and inventory) to estimated salvage value; and $1.5 million for closing and other related costs. This charge was recorded in gain (loss) on sale or closure of discontinued operations, net of income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations during the third quarter of 2005. The closure of Toledo Ship Repair represents a discontinued operation under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.”  Results of Toledo Ship Repair in current and prior periods have been classified as discontinued in the Consolidated Financial Statements to exclude the results from continuing operations. The closure of Toledo was completed during the first quarter of 2006.

The following selected financial data of Toledo Ship Repair for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 is presented for informational purposes only and does not necessarily reflect what the results of operations would have been had the business operated as a stand-alone entity.  There were no operating results from Toledo Ship Repair for the three months ended June 30, 2006.  There was no general corporate expense or interest expense allocated to discontinued operations for this business during the periods presented.

On December 30, 2005, the company completed the sale of Diversified Refrigeration, LLC, (f/k/a Diversified Refrigeration, Inc.) (DRI) to Monogram Refrigeration, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the General Electric Company.  DRI was the company’s private-label Foodservice contract manufacturing operation.  Net proceeds from the sale of DRI were approximately $28.4 million and resulted in a pre-tax gain of $17.6 million ($9.6 million after tax).  This gain was recorded in gain (loss) on sale or closure of discontinued operations, net of income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the fourth quarter of 2005.  The sale of DRI represents a discontinued operation under SFAS No. 144.  Results of DRI in prior periods have been classified as discontinued in the Consolidated Financial Statements to exclude the results from continuing operations.

The following selected financial data of DRI for the three and six months ended 2005 is presented for informational purposes only and does not necessarily reflect what the results of operations would have been had the business operated as a stand-alone entity. There were no operating results from DRI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006. There was no general corporate expense or interest expense allocated to discontinued operations for this business during the period presented.

5. Stock Based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, the company adopted SFAS No. 123 (R), “Share-Based Payment: An Amendment of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statements No. 123” (SFAS No. 123(R)), which revised SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.”  SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be measured at fair value and expensed in the consolidated statement of operations over the service period (generally the vesting period) of the grant.  Upon adoption, the company transitioned to SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective application, under which compensation expense is only recognized in the consolidated statements of operations beginning with the first period that SFAS No. 123(R) is effective and continuing to be expensed thereafter.  Prior periods’ stock-based compensation expense is still presented on a pro-forma basis.

The company maintains the following stock plans:

The Manitowoc Company, Inc. 1995 Stock Plan provides for the granting of stock options, restricted stock and limited stock appreciation rights as an incentive to certain employees.  Under this plan, stock options to acquire up to 5.0 million shares of common stock, in the aggregate, may be granted under the time-vesting formula at an exercise price equal to the market price of the common stock at the close of business or the business day immediately preceding the date of grant.  The options become exercisable in 25% increments beginning on the second anniversary of the grant date over a four-year period and expire ten years subsequent to the grant date.  The restrictions on any restricted shares granted under the plan lapse in one-third increments on each anniversary of the grant date.  Awards are no longer granted under this plan.  Awards surrendered under this plan become available for granting under the 2003 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan.

The Manitowoc Company, Inc. 2003 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan (2003 Stock Plan) provides for both short-term and long-term incentive awards for employees.  Stock-based awards may take the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, performance share or performance unit awards.  The total number of shares of the company’s common stock originally available for awards under the 2003 Stock Plan is 6.0 million shares subject to adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends and certain other transactions or events.  Options under this plan are exercisable at such times and subject to such conditions as the compensation committee should determine.  Options granted under the plan to date become exercisable in equal 25% increments beginning on the second anniversary of the grant date over a four-year period and expire ten years subsequent to the grant date.  Restrictions on restricted stock awarded under this plan lapse 100% on the third anniversary of the grant date.  There have been no awards of stock appreciation rights, performance shares or performance units.

The Manitowoc Company, Inc. 1999 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan (1995 Stock Plan) provides for the granting of stock options to non-employee members of the board of directors.  Under this plan, stock options to acquire up to 0.4 million shares of common stock, in the aggregate, may be granted under a time-vesting formula and at an exercise price equal to the market price of the common stock at the date of grant.  For the 1999 Stock Plan, the options become exercisable in 25% increments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date over a four-year period and expire ten years subsequent to the grant date.  During 2004, this plan was frozen and replaced with the 2004 Director Stock Plan.

The 2004 Non-Employee Director Stock and Awards Plan (2004 Stock Plan) was approved by the shareholders of the company during the 2004 annual meeting and it replaces The Manitowoc Company, Inc. 1999 Non-Employee Director Stock Option Plan.  Stock-based awards may take the form of stock options, restricted stock, or restricted stock units.  The total number of shares of the company’s common stock originally available for awards under the 2004 Stock Plan is 0.5 million, subject to adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, and certain other transactions and events.  Stock options awarded under the plan vest immediately and expire ten years subsequent to the grant date.  Restrictions on restricted stock awarded to date under the plan lapse on the third anniversary of the award date.

With the acquisition of Grove, the company inherited the Grove Investors, Inc. 2001 Stock Incentive Plan.  Outstanding Grove stock options under the Grove Investors, Inc. 2001 Stock Incentive Plan were converted into options to acquire Manitowoc Stock at the date of acquisition.  No future stock options may be granted under this plan.  Under this plan, after the conversion of Grove stock options to Manitowoc stock options, stock options to acquire 0.1 million shares of common stock of the company were outstanding.  These options are fully vested and expire on September 25, 2011.  No additional options may be granted under the Grove Investors, Inc. 2001 Stock Incentive Plan.

As a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the company recognized $2.1 million and $3.0 million of compensation expense associated with stock options for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, respectively.  The following presents pro-forma net income and per share data as if a fair-value-based method had been used to account for stock option based compensation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 (in millions, except per share amounts):

The company continues to use the Black-Scholes valuation model to value stock options.  The company used its historical stock prices as the basis for its volatility assumption.  The assumed risk-free rates were based on ten-year U.S. Treasury rates in effect at the time of grant.  The expected option life represents the period of time that the options granted are expected to be outstanding and were based on historical experience.

As of June 30, 2006, the company has $9.3 million of unrecognized compensation expense which will be recognized over the next five years.

The weighted average fair value of options granted per share during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was $19.17 and $15.03, respectively.  The fair value of each option grant was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing method with the following assumptions:

For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the total intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $18.1 million.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, the company recognized approximately $0.2 million and $0.5 million of compensation expense, respectively, related to restricted stock.  For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, the company recognized approximately $0.1 million of compensation expense related to restricted stock.

6. Stock Split

On February 24, 2006, the board of directors authorized a two-for-one stock split of the company’s common stock. Record holders of Manitowoc’s common stock at the close of business on March 31, 2006, received on April 10, 2006 one additional share of common stock for every share of Manitowoc common stock they owned.  Manitowoc shares outstanding at the close of business on March 31, 2006 totaled 30,605,986 (pre-split).  The company’s common stock began trading at its post-split price at the beginning of trading on April 11, 2006.  Per share and stock option amounts within this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for both periods presented have been adjusted to reflect the stock split.

7.  Contingencies and Significant Estimates

The company has been identified as a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERLA) in connection with the Lemberger Landfill Superfund Site near Manitowoc, Wisconsin.  Approximately 150 potentially responsible parties have been identified as having shipped hazardous materials to this site.  Eleven of those, including the company, have formed the Lemberger Site Remediation Group and have successfully negotiated with the United

10




States Environmental Protection Agency and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources to fund the cleanup and settle their potential liability at this site.  Estimates indicate that the total costs to clean up this site are approximately $30 million.  Although liability is joint and several, the company’s share of the liability is estimated to be 11% of the total cost.  Prior to December 31, 1996, the company accrued $3.3 million in connection with this matter.  Remediation work at the site has been substantially completed, with only long-term pumping and treating of groundwater and site maintenance remaining.  The company’s remaining estimated liability for this matter, included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2006 is $0.4 million.  Based on the size of the company’s current allocation of liabilities at this site, the existence of other viable potential responsible parties and current reserve, the company does not believe that any liability imposed in connection with this site will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

During the due diligence process for the sale of DRI certain contaminants in the soil and ground water associated with the facility were identified.  As part of the sale agreement, the company agreed to be responsible for costs associated with further investigation and remediation of the issues identified.  Estimates indicate that the costs to remediate this site are approximately $2.0 million.  During December 2005, the company recorded a $2.0 million reserve for these estimated costs.  This charge was recorded in discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2005.  The company’s remaining estimated liability for this matter, included in other accounts payable and accrued expenses in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2006 is $1.8 million.  Based upon available information, the company does not expect the ultimate costs will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

At certain of the company’s other facilities, the company has identified potential contaminants in soil and groundwater.  The ultimate cost of any remediation required will depend upon the results of future investigation.  Based upon available information, the company does not expect that the ultimate costs will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

The company believes that it has obtained and is in substantial compliance with those material environmental permits and approvals necessary to conduct its various businesses.  Based on the facts presently known, the company does not expect environmental compliance costs to have a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

As of June 30, 2006, various product-related lawsuits were pending.  To the extent permitted under applicable law, all of these are insured with self-insurance retention levels.  The company’s self-insurance retention levels vary by business, and have fluctuated over the last five years.  The range of the company’s self-insured retention levels is $0.1 million to $3.0 million per occurrence.  The high-end of the company’s self-insurance retention level is a legacy product liability insurance program inherited in the Grove Investors, Inc. acquisition for cranes manufactured in the United States for occurrences from January 2000 through October 2002.  As of June 30, 2006, the largest self-insured retention level currently maintained by the company is $2.0 million per occurrence and applies to product liability claims for cranes manufactured in the United States.

Product liability reserves in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2006, were $33.2 million; $11.1 million reserved specifically for cases and $22.1 million for claims incurred but not reported which were estimated using actuarial methods.  Based on the company’s experience in defending product liability claims, management believes the current reserves are adequate for estimated case resolutions on aggregate self-insured claims and insured claims.  Any recoveries from insurance carriers are dependent upon the legal sufficiency of claims and solvency of insurance carriers.

At June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the company had reserved $61.6 million and $55.4 million, respectively, for warranty claims included in product warranties and other non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.  Certain of these warranties and other related claims involve matters in dispute that ultimately are resolved by negotiations, arbitration, or litigation.

It is reasonably possible that the estimates for environmental remediation, product liability and warranty costs may change in the near future based upon new information that may arise or matters that are beyond the scope of the company’s historical experience. Presently, there are no reliable methods to estimate the amount of any such potential changes.

The company is involved in numerous lawsuits involving asbestos-related claims in which the company is one of numerous defendants.  After taking into consideration legal counsel’s evaluation of such actions, the current political environment with respect to asbestos related claims, and the liabilities accrued with respect to such matters, in the opinion of management, ultimate resolution is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows of the company.

The company is also involved in various legal actions arising out of the normal course of business, which, taking into account the liabilities accrued and legal counsel’s evaluation of such actions, in the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

At June 30, 2006, the company is contingently liable under open standby letters of credit issued by the company’s bank in favor of third parties totaling $26.1 million.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, the company paid a quarterly dividend of $0.035 per outstanding common share.

9. Guarantees

The company periodically enters into transactions with customers that provide for residual value guarantees and buyback commitments.  These transactions are recorded as operating leases for all significant residual value guarantees and for all buyback commitments.  These initial transactions are recorded as deferred revenue and are amortized to income on a straight-line basis over a period equal to that of the customer’s third party financing agreement.  The deferred revenue included in accounts payable and accrued epxneses and non-current liabilities at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 was $124.9 million and $128.5 million, respectively.  The total amount of residual value guarantees and buyback commitments given by the company and outstanding at June 30, 2006 was $150.9 million.  This amount is not reduced for amounts the company would recover from repossessing and subsequent resale of the units.  The residual value guarantees and buyback commitments expire at various times through 2011.

During the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, the company sold $9.8 million and $0.9 million, respectively, of its long term notes receivable to third party financing companies.  The company guarantees some percentage, up to 100%, of collection of the notes to the financing companies. The company has accounted for the sales of the notes as a financing of receivables.  The receivables remain on the company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet, net of payments made, in accounts payable and accrued expenses  and non-current assets and the company has recognized an obligation equal to the net outstanding balance of the notes in other current and non-current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.  The cash flow benefit of these transactions, net of payments made by the customer, are reflected as financing activities in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.  During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the customers have paid $3.8 million of the notes to the third party financing companies.  As of June 30, 2006, the outstanding balance of the notes receivables guaranteed by the company was $43.6 million.

In the normal course of business, the company provides its customers a warranty covering workmanship, and in some cases materials, on products manufactured by the company. Such warranty generally provides that products will be free from defects for periods ranging from 12 months to 60 months. If a product fails to comply with the company’s warranty, the company may be obligated, at its expense, to correct any defect by repairing or replacing such defective products. The company provides for an estimate of costs that may be incurred under its warranty at the time product revenue is recognized. These costs primarily include labor and materials, as necessary, associated with repair or replacement. The primary factors that affect the company’s warranty liability include the number of units shipped and historical and anticipated warranty claims. As these factors are impacted by actual experience and future expectations, the company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Below is a table summarizing the warranty activity for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.

10. Accounts Receivable Securitization

The company has an accounts receivable securitization program whereby it sells certain of its domestic trade accounts receivable to a wholly owned, bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary which, in turn, sells participating interests in its pool of receivables to a third-party financial institution (Purchaser).  The Purchaser receives an ownership and security interest in the pool of receivables.  New receivables are purchased by the special purpose subsidiary and participation interests are resold to the Purchaser as collections reduce previously sold participation interests.  The company has retained collection and administrative responsibilities on the participation interests sold.  The Purchaser has no recourse against the company for uncollectible receivables; however, the company’s retained interest in the receivable pool is subordinate to the Purchaser and is recorded at fair value.  Due to a short average collection cycle of less than 60 days for such accounts receivable and the company’s collection history, the fair value of the company’s retained interest approximates book value.  The retained interest recorded at June 30, 2006 is $64.8 million, and is included in accounts receivable in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The securitization program’s capacity is $60 million, and includes trade account receivables from its domestic Crane segment businesses. Trade accounts receivable sold to the Purchaser and being serviced by the company totaled $26.5 million at June 30, 2006.

Sales of trade receivables from the special purpose subsidiary to the Purchaser totaled $156.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006.  Cash collections of trade accounts receivable balances in the total receivable pool totaled $291.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

The accounts receivables securitization program is accounted for as a sale in accordance with FASB Statement No. 140 “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities—a Replacement of FASB Statement No. 125.” Sales of trade receivables to the Purchaser are reflected as a reduction of accounts receivable in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets and the proceeds received are included in cash flows from operating activities in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

The table below provides additional information about delinquencies and net credit losses for trade accounts receivable subject to the accounts receivable securitization program.

11. Employee Benefit Plans

The company provides certain pension, health care and death benefits for eligible retirees and their dependents.  The pension benefits are funded, while the health care and death benefits are not funded but are paid as incurred.  Eligibility for coverage is based on meeting certain years of service and retirement qualifications.  These benefits may be subject to deductibles, co-payment provisions, and other limitations.  The company has reserved the right to modify these benefits.

The components of periodic benefit costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 are as follows:

12. Debt and Loss on Debt Extinguishment

May 15, 2006, the company redeemed its 10 3/8% senior subordinated notes due 2011. Pursuant to the terms of the indenture, the company paid the note holders 105.188 percent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the redemption date.  As a result of this redemption, the company incurred a charge of $14.4 million ($9.4 million net of income taxes) related to the call premium ($11.2 million), write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs ($3.1 million) and other expenses ($0.1 million).  The charge was recorded in loss on debt extinguishment in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In June 2005, the company entered into a five-year, $300 million, secured revolving credit facility, which replaced the company’s $125 million facility that was due to expire in May 2006.  Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of a base rate or a Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin, which is based on the company’s consolidated total leverage ratio as defined by the credit agreement.  During June 2005, the company recorded a charge of $0.8 million ($0.6 million net of income taxes) for deferred financing costs related to the termination of the $125 million revolving credit facility.  The charge was recorded in loss on debt extinguishment in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In December 2004, the company sold, pursuant to an underwritten public offering, approximately 3.0 million shares of its common stock at a price of $36.25 per share.  Net cash proceeds from this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, were $104.9 million. On January 10, 2005, the company completed the redemption of $61.3 million of the 10 ½% senior subordinated notes due 2012. As a result of this redemption, the company incurred a charge of approximately $8.3 million ($5.4 million net of income taxes) for the early extinguishment of debt related to the prepayment premium paid to the note holders of $6.4 million, and the partial write-off of debt issuance costs of $1.9 million. The charge was recorded in loss on debt extinguishment in the Consolidated

14




Statement of Operations.

As of June 30, 2006, the company had four fixed-to-floating rate swap contracts which effectively converted $163.8 million of its fixed rate Senior Notes due 2013 and Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 to variable rate debt. These contracts are considered to be hedges against changes in the fair value of the fixed rate debt obligation. Accordingly, the interest rate swap contracts are reflected at fair value in its Consolidated Balance Sheet as a liability of $9.5 million as of June 30, 2006. Debt is reflected at an amount equal to the sum of its carrying value plus an adjustment representing the change in fair value of the debt obligation attributable to the interest rate risk being hedged. Changes during any accounting period in the fair value of the interest rate swap contract, as well as offsetting changes in the adjusted carrying value of the related portion of fixed-rate debt being hedged, are recognized as an adjustment to interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The change in fair value of the swaps exactly offsets the change in fair value of the hedged fixed-rate debt; therefore, there was no net impact on earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006. The fair value of these contracts, which represents the cost to settle these contracts, approximated a loss of $9.5 million at June 30, 2006.

13. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As discussed in Note 2, “Acquisition,” during the first six months of 2006, the company completed the acquisitions of McCann’s and ExacTech, Inc.   As of June 30, 2006 all excess purchase price over net assets acquired in the McCann’s acquisition was assigned to goodwill.  The company is in the process of valuing other intangible assets acquired in this acquisition and will assign value to these assets during the third quarter of 2006.

As discussed in Note 3, “Discontinued Operations,” during 2005 the company closed its Toledo Ship Repair and divested of DRI.  As a result, the company wrote-off the entire goodwill balances related to these businesses.

During 2005, the company reversed approximately $2.4 million of a tax reserve related to a German tax issue.  This reserve was established by the company during purchase accounting for the acquisition of Grove Investors, Inc. (Grove) as the tax issue related to a period prior to the company acquiring Grove.  During 2005, the German tax audit was settled and the excess reserve was reversed through goodwill.

The gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the company’s intangible assets other than goodwill were as follows as of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005.

14. Recent Accounting Changes and Pronouncements

In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and 140.”  SFAS No 155 amends certain aspects of SFAS No 133, primarily related to hybrid financial instruments and beneficial interests in securitized financial assets, as well as amends SFAS No. 140, related to eliminating a restriction on the passive derivative instruments that a qualifying special-purpose entity (SPE) may hold. SFAS No. 155 is effective for the company on January 1, 2007. The company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 155 will have an impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2006, the FASB Issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.”  SFAS No. 156, amends certain aspects of SFAS No. 140, by requiring that all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. SFAS No. 156 is effective for the company on January 1, 2007.   The company does not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will have an impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.”   This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return.  FIN No. 48 is effective for the company on January 1, 2007.  The company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption of FIN No. 48 on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Consolidated net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased 26.6% to $746.2 million, from $589.6 million for the same period in 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006 sales increased 25.4% to $1.4 billion versus sales of $1.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2005.  All three of our segments contributed to the increase in sales, led by increases in the Crane segment.

Net sales from the Crane segment for the three months ended June 30, 2006 increased 33.5% to $570.0 million versus $427.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005.  For the six months ended June 30, 2006 sales increased 33.4% to $1.0 billion versus $785.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.  Net sales for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 increased over the prior year in all major geographic regions.  The Crane segment continues to benefit from strong crane end-market demand.  From a product line standpoint, the sales increase was driven by increased volume of crawler, tower and mobile hydraulic cranes worldwide, increases in our aftermarket sales and service business, and increases in boom truck sales in North America. As of June 30, 2006, total Crane segment backlog was $1.1 billion, a 28.3% increase over the December 31, 2005 backlog of$866.1 million and a 109.7% increase over the June 30, 2005 backlog of $530.0 million.

Net sales from the Foodservice segment increased 9.3% to $113.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 versus $103.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005.  For the six months ended June 30, 2006, Foodservice sales of $206.9 million increased 3.5% over the same period in 2005.  The sales increase during the quarter and the six months were driven by our ice division and the acquisition of McCann’s.  Our refrigeration division’s sales for the first six months of 2006 were flat compared to the same period in 2005.  Our beverage division benefited from the acquisition of McCann’s, which was completed on May 26, 2006, and increased sales by approximately $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2006 versus the same period in 2005.  The benefit of the McCann’s acquisition was offset by reduced sales in our historical beverage businesses as the prior year benefited from two major customer rollouts that did not recur during 2006.

Net sales from our Marine segment increased 6.8% to $62.9 million in the second quarter of 2006 versus the second quarter of 2005.  For the six months ended June 30, 2006, sales increased 8.5% to $124.8 million compared to $115.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2005.  The increase in sales for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was primarily the result of revenue generated from the Littoral Combat Ship for the U.S. Navy as well as commercial barge projects.  Year-to-date sales also benefited from a very strong winter repair season.

Consolidated gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $172.0 million, an increase of $57.7 million over the $114.3 million of consolidated gross profit for the same period in 2005.  Consolidated gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $307.1 million, an increase of $85.9 million over the  $221.2 million of consolidated gross profit for the same period in 2005.  These increases in consolidated gross profit for both periods were driven by significantly higher gross profit in the Crane segment on increased volume and productivity gains.  Second quarter 2006 gross profit of the Foodservice segment was up approximately $2.3 million versus 2005, and for the first six months of 2006 the gross profit was up approximately $0.9 million versus the first six months of 2005.   For the three and six months ended June 30, 2006, the Marine segment gross profit increased 113.6% and 80.9%, respectively.

Engineering, selling and administrative (ES&A) expenses for the second quarter of 2006 increased approximately $18.3 million to $86.8 million versus $68.5 million for the second quarter of 2005.  For the six months ended June 30, 2006, ES&A was $165.7 million which was a $29.3 million increase over the six months ended June 30, 2005 levels.  This increase was primarily driven by the Crane segment and corporate expenses. Crane segment increases were due to higher selling expense, increased employee related costs, and increased research and development expenses. Corporate expenses increased primarily due to expensing of stock options and employee related costs.

For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Crane segment reported operating earnings of $74.8 million compared to $34.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005.   For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Crane segment reported operating earnings of $125.4 million compared to $54.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.  Operating earnings of the Crane segment were favorably affected by increased volume across all regions and products, productivity gains as a result of consolidation efforts over the past several years, and effective leveraging of engineering, selling and administrative expenses on higher sales volume. Operating margin for the three months ended June 30, 2006 was 13.3% versus 8.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2005.  Strong factory performance, leveraging of fixed costs, and favorable pricing levels in all our regions contributed to the gains in margin.

For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Foodservice segment reported operating earnings of $17.8 million compared to $16.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005.   For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Foodservice segment reported operating earnings of $28.4 million compared to $28.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.  The increase in operating earnings for the quarter was a result of increased sales in the ice division, operating efficiencies from an earlier plant consolidation in the refrigeration division, and the McCann’s acquisition which was completed during the second quarter of 2006.  These results were tempered by lower sales in our beverage business and the continued rise of certain commodity costs such as copper.

For the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Marine segment reported operating earnings of $1.9 million compared to a loss of $(0.6) million for the three months ended June 30, 2005.   For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Marine segment reported net operating earnings of $5.5 million compared to $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.  On a comparative basis 2006 continues to benefit from the prior year completion of certain fixed price contracts which were bid and awarded prior to the unprecedented rise in steel and other commodities during 2004. Labor inefficiencies also impacted these projects in prior years.   The Marine segment’s contracts generally are now better protected against commodity cost increases.  Increase demand for certain commercial vessels has allowed for us to bid on projects with higher margins.  For 2006, a significant percentage of the Marine segment results are from a relatively low margin LCS contract which is a first-run military prototype vessel that is structured as a cost plus contract.

For the three months ended June 30, 2006, corporate expenses were $10.1 million compared to $5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2005.   For the six months ended June 30, 2006, corporate expense were $19.4 million compared to $10.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005.  These increases are the result of expensing of stock options which began during 2006. Also contributing to the increase are higher employee related costs, securitization fees and expenses, and other professional related expenses.

Analysis of Non-Operating Income Statement Items

Interest expense for the second quarter of 2006 was $10.9 million versus $13.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. The decrease resulted from redemption of the 10 3/8% senior subordinated notes due 2011 and interest income earned on invested money. These items were partially offset by an increase in the variable interest rate portion of outstanding debt balances.

During May 2006, we redeemed our 10 3/8% senior subordinated notes due 2011. Pursuant to the terms of the indenture, we paid the note holders 105.188 percent of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the redemption date.  As a result of this redemption, we incurred a charge of $14.4 million ($9.4 million net of income taxes) related to the call premium ($11.2 million), write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs ($3.1 million) and other expenses ($0.1 million).  The charge was recorded in loss on debt extinguishment in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In June 2005, we entered into a five-year, $300 million, secured revolving credit facility, which replaced our $125 million facility that was due to expire in May 2006.  During June 2005, we recorded a charge of $0.8 million ($0.6 million net of income taxes) for

27




deferred financing costs related to the termination of the $125 million revolving credit facility.  The charge was recorded in loss on debt extinguishment in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

In December 2004, we sold, pursuant to an underwritten public offering, approximately 3.0 million shares of our common stock at a price of $36.25 per share.  Net cash proceeds from this offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, were $104.9 million. On January 10, 2005, we completed the redemption of $61.3 million of the 10 ½% senior subordinated notes due 2012. As a result of this redemption, we incurred a charge of approximately $8.3 million ($5.4 million net of income taxes) for the early extinguishment of debt related to the prepayment premium paid to the note holders of $6.4 million, and the partial write-off of debt issuance costs of $1.9 million. The charge was recorded in loss on debt extinguishment in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The effective tax rate for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was 30.0%.  Both periods were favorably affected, as compared to the statutory rate, by certain global tax planning initiatives. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 was 21.2% and 23.2%, respectively.  The lower effective tax rate in 2005 was the result of lower earnings and the realization of certain tax benefits that were previously reserved against due to their uncertainty.

The loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, for the six months ended June 30, 2006 reflects the operating results of our discontinued Toledo Ship Repair operation. The closure of Toledo was completed during the first quarter of 2006 and no further results were realized from this operation. The results from discontinued operations, net of income taxes, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 reflect the operating results of our discontinued Toledo Ship Repair and DRI operations. The DRI operation was sold during the fourth quarter of 2005.

Acquisitions

On May 26, 2006, we acquired substantially all of the net assets and business operated by McCann’s Engineering & Mfg. Co. (McCann’s).  Headquartered in Los Angeles, California, McCann’s is engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of beverage dispensing equipment primarily used in fast food restaurants, stadiums, cafeterias and convenience stores.  McCann’s primary products are backroom beverage equipment such as carbonators, water boosters and racks.  McCann’s also produces accessory components for beverage dispensers including specialty valves, stands and other stainless steel components.  The aggregate consideration paid for the McCann’s acquisition was $37.1 million, including acquisition costs of $0.7 million.  The acquisition resulted in approximately $28.6 million of goodwill being recognized by our Foodservice segment.  As of June 30, 2006, all excess purchase price over net assets acquired was assigned to goodwill.  We are in the process of valuing other intangible assets acquired in this acquisition and will assign value to these assets during the third quarter of 2006.

On January 3, 2006, we acquired certain assets, rights and properties of ExacTech, Inc., a supplier of fabrication, machining, welding, and other services to various parties. Located in Port Washington, Wisconsin, ExacTech, Inc. will provide these services to our U.S. based crane manufacturing facilities. The aggregate consideration paid for the acquisition resulted in approximately $6.5 million of goodwill being recognized by our Crane segment.

On July 14, 2006, the company noted an announcement by Enodis plc (Enodis) regarding a possible offer for Enodis by the company.  Following discussions and the exchange of certain preliminary information, the company submitted to the Board of Enodis an indicative, non-binding proposal.  This proposal was subject to certain conditions which included due diligence, a recommendation by the Board of Enodis, and final financing arrangements.  The announcement did not amount to a firm intention to make an offer or pre-conditional offer. 

 

On July 25, 2006, Enodis announced that it had agreed to grant due diligence access to the company.  As part of that process, Enodis and the company exchanged confidential information.  On August 8, 2006, Enodis and the company announced that having analyzed that information, Enodis and the company concluded that the parties were unable to reach a mutually acceptable solution that, in the interest of their respective shareholders, satisfactorily addressed certain regulatory risks.  Accordingly, Enodis and the company confirmed that discussions ceased and that the company will not proceed with an offer for Enodis.

Financial Condition

First Six Months of 2006

Cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2006 was $87.4 million, which represented a $142.1 million reduction of cash during the first half of 2006.  Cash flow provided by operating activities totaled $39.4 million compared to a use of $28.4 million during the first half of 2005.  Cash flow during the first half of 2006 was driven by $71.9 million of net earnings, an increase of $41.4 million over net earnings for the first half of 2005.  Accounts payable and accrued expenses positively impacted cash flow from operations with a $68.2 million increase.  This was driven primarily by the increase in inventory in the Crane segment required to support the increase in production, as well as the increase in the Foodservice segment, which traditionally increases inventory during the first half of the year to support peek demand season which occurs in the second and third quarters.   A $92.9 million increase in inventory negatively impacted cash flow from operations.  Accounts receivable also negatively impacted cash flow with an increase of $75.9 million during the first half of 2006.  This increase was driven by higher sales in the Crane segment.  During the first quarter, the company terminated its accounts receivable factoring arrangement with a bank. Factored receivables totaled $23.6 million at December 31, 2005 and $0 at June 30, 2006.

On May 26, 2006, the company acquired substantially all of the net assets and business operated by McCann’s Engineering & Mfg. Co. (McCann’s).  Headquartered in Los Angeles, California, McCann’s is engaged in the design, manufacture and sale of beverage dispensing equipment primarily used in fast food restaurants, stadiums, cafeterias and convenience stores.  McCann’s primary products are backroom beverage equipment such as carbonators, water boosters and racks.  McCann’s also produces accessory components for beverage dispensers including specialty valves, stands and other stainless steel components.  The cash flow impact of this acquisition is included in business acquisition, net of cash acquired within the cash flow from investing section of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

On January 3, 2006, we acquired certain assets, rights and properties of ExacTech, Inc., a supplier of fabrication, machining, welding and other services to various parties. Located in Port Washington, Wisconsin, the operation will provide these services to the U.S. based crane manufacturing facilities. The cash flow impact of this acquisition is included in business acquisition, net of cash acquired within the cash flow from investing section of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

Capital expenditures for the first half of the year were $23.2 million. The company continues to invest capital in the Foodservice ERP system, the new China manufacturing facilities in the Crane and Foodservice segment, new manufacturing equipment, and new product tooling.

During May 2006, we redeemed our 175 million Euro ($216.9 million based on May 15, 2006 exchange rates) of 10 3/8% senior subordinated notes due 2011. Pursuant to the terms of the indenture, we paid the note holders 105.188 percent of the principal amount ($11.2 million) as a call premium plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the redemption date.   We utilized cash on hand and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility to fund this redemption.

First Six Months of 2005

During the first six months of 2005, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $106.8 million.  On January 10, 2005 we completed the redemption of $61.3 million of our 10 ½% senior subordinated notes due 2012, which required us to pay a premium to the note holders of $6.4 million.  During the first half of 2005, accounts receivable and inventory increased $65.1 million and $91.6 million, respectively.  These increases are primarily the result of higher sales in the Crane segment, increased backlog in the Crane segment and traditional seasonal inventory build-up in the Foodservice segment.  Offsetting these increases in operating assets was a $57.8 million increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, primarily associated with the increased inventory.

Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2005 were $21.3 million.  The company continues to invest capital in the Foodservice ERP system, the new China manufacturing facilities in the Crane and Foodservice segments, production machinery and equipment, and new product tooling.

During the first half of 2005, the company paid two quarterly dividends totaling $4.2 million.  At its February 2005 meeting, the board of directors approved changing to a quarterly dividend from an annual dividend beginning in the first quarter of 2005.

As discussed in the liquidity and capital resources section below, during June 2005, we entered into a new five year, $300.0 million secured revolving credit facility.  As a result, we incurred approximately $1.7 million of debt issuance costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary cash requirements include working capital, indebtedness payments, interest on indebtedness, capital expenditures, and dividends. The primary sources of cash for each of these are cash flows from continuing operations and borrowings under our five-year, $300 million secured revolving credit facility (Revolving Credit Facility). At June 30, 2006, we had $89.8 million in cash and short term investments along with $175.5 million of unused availability under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility.  Availability under the $300 million Revolving Credit Facility is reduced for borrowings of $98.4 million and letters of credit of $26.1 million as of June 30, 2006.

Our outstanding debt at June 30, 2006 consists of $98.4 million of borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility,  $150.0 million of 7 1/8% senior notes due 2013 (Senior Notes due 2013), $113.8 million of 10 1/2% senior subordinated notes due 2012 (Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012) , as well as outstanding amounts under foreign overdraft facilities and capital leases.

During May 2006, we redeemed our 175 million Euro ($216.9 million based on May 15, 2006 exchange rates) of 10 3/8% senior subordinated notes due 2011. As set forth in the notes’ articles of indenture, we paid the note holders 105.188 percent of the principal amount ($11.2 million) as a call premium plus accrued and unpaid interest up to the redemption date.   We utilized cash on hand and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility to fund this redemption.

Our Revolving Credit Facility, in addition to $300 million of initial borrowing capacity, provides us the ability to access to an additional $250 million of borrowing capacity during the life of the facility under the same terms. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of a base rate or a Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin, which is based on

29




our consolidated total leverage ratio as defined by the credit agreement. The annual commitment fee in effect at June 30, 2006 on the unused portion of the secured revolving credit facility was 0.15%.  As of June 30, 2006, we had $98.4 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility at an effective interest rate of 3.6%.

The Senior Notes due 2013 are unsecured senior obligations ranking prior to our Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012. Our secured senior indebtedness, including indebtedness under our Revolving Credit Facility, ranks equally with the Senior Notes due 2013, except that it is secured by substantially all domestic tangible and intangible assets of the company and its subsidiaries. Interest on the Senior Notes due 2013 is payable semiannually in May and November each year,  The Senior Notes due 2013 can be redeemed by us in whole or in part for a premium on or after November 1, 2008. In addition, we may redeem for a premium at any time prior to November 1, 2006, up to 35% of the face amount of the Senior Notes due 2013 with the proceeds of one or more equity offerings.

The Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 are unsecured obligations of the company ranking subordinate in right of payment to all of our senior debt and are fully and unconditionally, jointly and severally guaranteed by substantially all of the company’s domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 is payable semiannually in February and August each year. These notes can be redeemed by us in whole or in part for a premium on or after August 1, 2007.

As of June 30, 2006, we also had outstanding $23.9 million of other indebtedness with a weighted-average interest rate of 5.7%. This debt includes outstanding bank overdrafts in Asia and Europe, and various capital leases.

As of June 30, 2006, we had four fixed-to-floating rate swap contracts which effectively converted $163.8 million of our fixed rate Senior Notes due 2013 and Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 to variable rate debt. These contracts are considered to be hedges against changes in the fair value of the fixed rate debt obligation. Accordingly, the interest rate swap contracts are reflected at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as a liability of $9.5 million as of June 30, 2006. Debt is reflected at an amount equal to the sum of its carrying value plus an adjustment representing the change in fair value of the debt obligation attributable to the interest rate risk being hedged. Changes during any accounting period in the fair value of the interest rate swap contract, as well as offsetting changes in the adjusted carrying value of the related portion of fixed-rate debt being hedged, are recognized as an adjustment to interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The change in fair value of the swaps exactly offsets the change in fair value of the hedged fixed-rate debt; therefore, there was no net impact on earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006. The fair value of these contracts, which represents the cost to settle these contracts, approximated a loss of $9.5 million at June 30, 2006.

Our Revolving Credit Facility, Senior Notes due 2013, and Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012 contain customary affirmative and negative covenants. In general, the covenants contained in the Revolving Credit Facility are more restrictive than those of the Senior Notes due 2013 and the Senior Subordinated Notes due 2012. Among other restrictions, these covenants require us to meet specified financial tests, which include the following: consolidated interest coverage ratio; consolidated total leverage ratio; and consolidated senior leverage ratio. These covenants also limit, among other things, our ability to redeem or repurchase our debt, incur additional debt, make acquisitions, merge with other entities, pay dividends or distributions, repurchase capital stock, and create or become subject to liens. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains cross-default provisions whereby certain defaults under any other debt agreements would result in default under the secured revolving credit facility. We were in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2006, and based upon our current plans and outlook, we believe we will be able to comply with these covenants during the subsequent 12 months.

Recent Accounting Changes and Pronouncements

In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and 140.”  SFAS No. 155 amends certain aspects of SFAS No. 133, primarily related to hybrid financial instruments and beneficial interests in securitized financial assets, as well as amends SFAS No. 140, related to eliminating a restriction on the passive derivative instruments that a qualifying special-purpose entity (SPE) may hold. SFAS No. 155 is effective for us on January 1, 2007.  We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 155 will have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In March 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 156, “Accounting for Servicing of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140.”  SFAS No. 156, amends certain aspects of SFAS No. 140, by requiring that all separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. SFAS No. 156 is effective for us on January 1, 2007.   We do not believe the adoption of SFAS No. 156 will have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.”   This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”  It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return.  FIN No. 48 is effective for us on January 1, 2007.  We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of FIN No. 48 on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
