NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(In Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of EnerSys (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K (SEC File No. 001-32253), which was filed on May 27, 2015 (the "2015 Annual Report").

The Company reports interim financial information for 13-week periods, except for the first quarter, which always begins on April 1, and the fourth quarter, which always ends on March 31. The four quarters in fiscal 2016 end on June 28, 2015, September 27, 2015, December 27, 2015, and March 31, 2016, respectively. The four quarters in fiscal 2015 ended on June 29, 2014, September 28, 2014, December 28, 2014, and March 31, 2015, respectively.

The consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and any partially owned subsidiaries that the Company has the ability to control. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company also consolidates certain subsidiaries in which the noncontrolling interest party has within its control the right to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of its interest in the subsidiary. The redeemable noncontrolling interests are reported at their estimated redemption value, and the amount presented in temporary equity is not less than the initial amount reported in temporary equity. Any adjustment to the redemption value impacts retained earnings but does not impact net income or comprehensive income. Noncontrolling interests which are redeemable only upon future events, the occurrence of which is not currently probable, are recorded at carrying value.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) providing guidance on revenue from contracts with customers that will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The underlying principle is that an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. In July 2015, the FASB voted to delay the effective date for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permissible one year earlier. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of the adoption of this newly issued guidance on the consolidated financial position, results of operations and related disclosures.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs.” The update simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this update and amortization of the costs will continue to be reported as interest expense. For public companies, this update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and is to be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this standard to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet concluded whether it will adopt ASU 2015-03 prior to the effective date.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-011, “Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (Topic 330).” This update requires inventory to be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. Subsequent measurement is unchanged for inventory measured using LIFO or the retail inventory method. This update will be effective for the Company for all annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The amendments in this update should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. This update will not have a material impact on the presentation of the Company’s financial position.

The fair values of lead forward contracts are calculated using observable prices for lead as quoted on the London Metal Exchange (“LME”) and, therefore, were classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy, as described in the Company's consolidated financial statements included in its 2015 Annual Report in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

The fair values for foreign currency forward contracts are based upon current quoted market prices and are classified as Level 2 based on the nature of the underlying market in which these derivatives are traded.

Financial Instruments

The fair values of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate carrying value due to their short maturities.

The fair value of the Company’s short-term debt and borrowings under the 2011 Credit Facility (as defined in Note 9), approximate their respective carrying value, as they are variable rate debt and the terms are comparable to market terms as of the balance sheet dates and are classified as Level 2.

The Company’s 3.375% convertible senior notes due 2038 ( the “Convertible Notes”), with an original face value of $172,500, were issued when the Company’s stock price was trading at $30.19 per share. The Convertible Notes were called for redemption on June 8, 2015. Accordingly, as of June 28, 2015, the holders of the Convertible Notes exercised their conversion rights and the Convertible Notes were to be paid off on July 17, 2015. The fair value amount of the Convertible Notes, reflects in aggregate, the amount paid in cash on the scheduled settlement date of July 17, 2015, for principal and interest and the shares issued to settle the conversion premium, valued at the closing share price on the day of settlement. See Note 9 for further details.

The Company's 5.0% Senior Notes due 2023 (the "Notes"), with an original face value of $300,000, were issued in April 2015. The fair values of these Notes represent the trading values based upon quoted market prices and are classified as Level 2. The Notes were trading at 99% of face value on June 28, 2015.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s derivatives, Notes and Convertible Notes at June 28, 2015 and March 31, 2015 were as follows:

The fair value amount of the Notes at June 28, 2015 and the Convertible Notes at March 31, 2015 represent the trading value of the instruments.
(3)
The Convertible Notes were no longer trading at June 28, 2015 as the holders exercised their conversion rights by that date. The fair value amount of the Convertible Notes, reflects in aggregate, the amount paid in cash on the scheduled settlement date of July 17, 2015, for principal and interest and the shares issued to settle the conversion premium, valued at the closing share price on the day of settlement.
(4)
The carrying amounts of the Convertible Notes at June 28, 2015 and March 31, 2015 represent the $172,180 and $172,266 principal balance, less the unamortized debt discount (see Note 9 for further details).

Non-recurring fair value measurements

The valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets is based on information and assumptions available to the Company at the time of acquisition, using income and market approaches to determine fair value. The Company tests goodwill and other intangible assets annually for impairment, or when indications of potential impairment exist (see Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's 2015 Annual Report for details).

Goodwill is tested for impairment by determining the fair value of the Company’s reporting units. The unobservable inputs used to measure the fair value of the reporting units include projected growth rates, profitability, and the risk factor premium added to the discount rate. The remeasurement of goodwill is classified as a Level 3 fair value assessment due to the significance of unobservable inputs developed using company-specific information.

The inputs used to measure the fair value of other intangible assets were largely unobservable and accordingly were also classified as Level 3. The fair value of indefinite-lived assets, such as trademarks, is based on the royalties saved that would have been paid to a third party had the Company not owned the trademark.

The fair value of other intangible assets was estimated using the income approach, based on cash flow projections of revenue growth rates, taking into consideration industry and market conditions.

4. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company utilizes derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices and foreign exchange rates under established procedures and controls. The Company does not enter into derivative contracts for speculative purposes. The Company’s agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions and the Company anticipates performance by counterparties to these contracts and therefore no material loss is expected.

Derivatives in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships

Lead Hedge Forward Contracts

The Company enters into lead hedge forward contracts to fix the price for a portion of its lead purchases. Management considers the lead hedge forward contracts to be effective against changes in the cash flows of the underlying lead purchases. The vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year and the notional amounts at June 28, 2015 and March 31, 2015 were 110.4 million pounds and 91.6 million pounds, respectively.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts and options to hedge a portion of the Company’s foreign currency exposures for lead as well as other foreign currency exposures so that gains and losses on these contracts offset changes in the underlying foreign currency denominated exposures. The vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year. As of June 28, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the Company had entered into a total of $86,623 and $75,878, respectively, of such contracts.

In the coming twelve months, the Company anticipates that $1,716 of pretax loss relating to lead and foreign currency forward contracts will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) as part of cost of goods sold. This amount represents the current net unrealized impact of hedging lead and foreign exchange rates, which will change as market rates change in the future, and will ultimately be realized in the Consolidated Statement of Income as an offset to the corresponding actual changes in lead costs to be realized in connection with the variable lead cost and foreign exchange rates being hedged.

Derivatives not Designated in Hedging Relationships

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company also enters into foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge foreign currency fluctuations on intercompany loans and foreign currency denominated receivables and payables. These are not designated as hedging instruments and changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded directly in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Income. As of June 28, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the notional amount of these contracts was $22,650 and $26,246, respectively.

5. Income Taxes

The Company’s income tax provision consists of federal, state and foreign income taxes. The tax provision for the first quarters of fiscal 2016 and 2015 were based on the estimated effective tax rates applicable for the full years ending March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, respectively, after giving effect to items specifically related to the interim periods. The Company’s effective income tax rate with respect to any period may be volatile based on the mix of income in the tax jurisdictions in which the Company operates and the amount of the Company's consolidated income before taxes.

The consolidated effective income tax rates for the first quarters of fiscal 2016 and 2015 were 22.7% and 25.3%, respectively. The rate decrease in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015 is primarily due to the subsequent recognition of a previously unrecognized tax position related to one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries and changes in the mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions.

Foreign income as a percentage of worldwide income is estimated to be 57% for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to 54% for the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The foreign effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and 2015 were 12.8% and 15.3%, respectively. The rate decrease compared to the prior year period is primarily due to the subsequent recognition of a previously unrecognized tax position related to one of the Company's foreign subsidiaries and changes in the mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions. Income from the Company's Swiss subsidiary comprised a substantial portion of the Company's overall foreign mix of income and is taxed at an effective income tax rate of approximately 7%.

6. Warranty

The Company provides for estimated product warranty expenses when the related products are sold, with related liabilities included within accrued expenses and other liabilities. Because warranty estimates are forecasts that are based on the best available information, primarily historical claims experience, claims costs may differ from amounts provided. An analysis of changes in the liability for product warranties is as follows:

7. Commitments, Contingencies and Litigation

Litigation and Other Legal Matters

The Company is involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of its business, the results of which, in the opinion of management, are not likely to be material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. See Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes since March 31, 2015.

Environmental Issues

As a result of its operations, the Company is subject to various federal, state, and local, as well as international environmental laws and regulations and is exposed to the costs and risks of registering, handling, processing, storing, transporting, and disposing of hazardous substances, especially lead and acid. The Company’s operations are also subject to federal, state, local and international occupational safety and health regulations, including laws and regulations relating to exposure to lead in the workplace.

The Company is responsible for certain cleanup obligations at the former Yuasa battery facility in Sumter, South Carolina, that predates its ownership of this facility. This manufacturing facility was closed in 2001 and is separate from the Company’s current metal fabrication facility in Sumter. The Company has established a reserve for this facility. As of June 28, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the reserves related to this facility were $1,923 and $2,902, respectively. Based on current information, the Company’s management believes these reserves are adequate to satisfy the Company’s environmental liabilities at this facility.

Lead Contracts

To stabilize its costs, the Company has entered into contracts with financial institutions to fix the price of lead. The vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year. Under these contracts, at June 28, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the Company has hedged the price to purchase 110.4 million pounds and 91.6 million pounds of lead, respectively, for a total purchase price of $94,162 and $76,143, respectively.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company quantifies and monitors its global foreign currency exposures. On a selective basis, the Company will enter into foreign currency forward and option contracts to reduce the volatility from currency movements that affect the Company. The vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year. The Company’s largest exposure is from the purchase and conversion of U.S. dollar based lead costs into local currencies in EMEA. Additionally, the Company has currency exposures from intercompany financing and intercompany and third party trade transactions. To hedge these exposures, the Company has entered into a total of $109,273 and $102,124, respectively, of foreign currency forward contracts with financial institutions as of June 28, 2015 and March 31, 2015.

8. Restructuring Plans

During fiscal 2013, the Company announced a restructuring related to improving the efficiency of its manufacturing operations in EMEA. The Company estimates that the total charges for these actions will amount to approximately $6,900, primarily from cash expenses for employee severance-related payments and non-cash expenses associated with the write-off of certain fixed assets and inventory. The Company estimates that these actions will result in the reduction of approximately 140 employees upon completion. The Company recorded restructuring charges of $6,895 through fiscal 2015, consisting of non-cash charges of $1,399 and cash charges of $5,496 and no additional charges were recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The Company incurred $5,207 of costs against the accrual through fiscal 2015, and incurred $50 in costs against the accrual during the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

During fiscal 2014, the Company announced further restructuring programs to improve the efficiency of its manufacturing, sales and engineering operations in EMEA including the restructuring of its manufacturing operations in Bulgaria. The restructuring of the Bulgaria operations was announced during the third quarter of fiscal 2014 and consists of the transfer of motive power and a portion of reserve power battery manufacturing to the Company's facilities in Western Europe. The Company estimates that the total charges for all actions announced during fiscal 2014 will amount to approximately $23,300, primarily from non-cash charges related to the write-off of fixed assets and inventory of $11,000, along with cash charges for employee severance-related payments and other charges of $12,300. The Company estimates that these actions will result in the reduction of approximately 500 employees upon completion.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company announced a restructuring related to its manufacturing facility located in Jiangdu, the People’s Republic of China ("PRC"), pursuant to which the Company completed the transfer of the manufacturing at that location to its other facilities in PRC, as part of the closure of the Jiangdu facility in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The Company estimates that the total charges for these actions will amount to approximately $5,400 primarily from cash expenses for employee severance-related payments. The Company estimates that these actions will result in the reduction of approximately 300 employees upon completion. The Company recorded restructuring charges of $3,870 during fiscal 2015 consisting of cash charges for employee severance-related payments. No additional charges were recorded during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The Company incurred $1,874 in costs against the accrual through fiscal 2015 and incurred an additional $1,914 against the accrual during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. As of June 28, 2015, the reserve balance associated with these actions is $82. The Company expects to be committed to an additional $1,600 of restructuring charges related to these actions in 2016 when it expects to complete the program.

During fiscal 2015 the Company announced a restructuring primarily related to a portion of its sales and engineering organizations in Europe to improve efficiencies. The Company estimates that the total charges for these actions will amount to approximately $800, primarily from cash charges for employee severance-related payments. The Company estimates that these actions will result in the reduction of approximately 10 employees upon completion in fiscal 2016. In fiscal 2015, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $450 and recorded an additional $337 during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The Company incurred $193 in costs against the accrual in fiscal 2015 and incurred an additional $126 against the accrual during the first quarter of fiscal 2016. As of June 28, 2015, the reserve balance associated with these actions is $564.

5.0% Senior Notes

On April 23, 2015, the Company issued $300,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 5.00% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”). The Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.00% per annum accruing from April 23, 2015. Interest is payable semiannually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year, commencing on October 30, 2015. The Notes will mature on April 30, 2023, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased in full. The Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company. The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed (the “Guarantees”), jointly and severally, by each of its subsidiaries that are guarantors under the 2011 Credit Facility (the "Guarantors"). The Guarantees are unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantors. The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes were used primarily to redeem, settle, repurchase or otherwise repay and retire in full the $172,180 principal amount of the Company’s outstanding 3.375% Convertible Notes as discussed below.

2011 Credit Facility

The Company is party to a $350,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended, “2011 Credit Facility”) and, on July 8, 2014, amended the credit facility while also entering into an Incremental Commitment Agreement pursuant to which certain banks agreed to provide incremental term loan commitments of $150,000 and incremental revolving commitments of $150,000. Pursuant to these changes, the 2011 Credit Facility is now comprised of a $500,000 senior secured revolving credit facility and a $150,000 senior secured incremental term loan (the "Term Loan") that matures on September 30, 2018. The Term Loan is payable in quarterly installments of $1,875 beginning June 30, 2015 and $3,750 beginning June 30, 2016 with a final payment of $108,750 on September 30, 2018. The 2011 Credit Facility may be increased by an aggregate amount of $300,000 in revolving commitments and/or one or more new tranches of term loans, under certain conditions. Both revolving loans and the Term loan under the 2011 Credit Facility will bear interest, at the Company's option, at a rate per annum equal to either (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus between 1.25% and 1.75% (currently 1.25% and based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio) or (ii) the Base Rate (which is the highest of (a) the Bank of America prime rate, and (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate) plus between 0.25% and 0.75% (based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio). Obligations under the 2011 Credit Facility are secured by substantially all of the Company’s existing and future acquired assets, including substantially all of the capital stock of the Company’s United States subsidiaries that are guarantors under the credit facility, and 65% of the capital stock of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries that are owned by the Company’s United States companies.

The current portion of the Term Loan of $7,500 is classified as long-term debt as the Company expects to refinance the quarterly payments beginning June 30, 2015 with revolver borrowings under its 2011 Credit Facility.

As of June 28, 2015, the Company had no balance outstanding in revolver borrowings and $150,000 under its term loan borrowings.

3.375% Convertible Notes

On May 7, 2015, the Company filed a notice of redemption for all of the Convertible Notes with a redemption date of June 8, 2015 and 99% of the Convertible Notes holders exercised their conversion rights on or before June 5, 2015, pursuant to which, on July 17, 2015, the Company paid the principal balance and accreted interest aggregating $172,388 in cash and settled the conversion premium by issuing in the aggregate, 1,889,431 shares of the Company's common stock issued from its treasury shares, thereby resulting in the extinguishment of all of the Convertible Notes as of that date. The impact resulting from such extinguishment is not expected to be material as the fair value of the total settlement consideration transferred and allocated to the liability component approximates the carrying value of the Convertible Notes and will be recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 2016.

The carrying value of the Convertible Notes of $172,180 is classified as current maturities of long-term debt on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet as of June 28, 2015.

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

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Reform Act”) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of EnerSys. EnerSys and its representatives may, from time to time, make written or verbal forward-looking statements, including statements contained in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and its reports to stockholders. Generally, the inclusion of the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “estimate,” “will,” “plans,” or the negative of such terms and similar expressions identify statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and that are intended to come within the safe harbor protection provided by those sections. All statements addressing operating performance, events, or developments that EnerSys expects or anticipates will occur in the future, including statements relating to sales growth, earnings or earnings per share growth, and market share, as well as statements expressing optimism or pessimism about future operating results, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Reform Act. The forward-looking statements are and will be based on management’s then-current beliefs and assumptions regarding future events and operating performance and on information currently available to management, and are applicable only as of the dates of such statements.

Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Although we do not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements due to a number of uncertainties and risks, including the risks described in the Company’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "2015 Annual Report") and other unforeseen risks. You should not put undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. These statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, even if subsequently made available by us on our website or otherwise, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise these statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements for a number of reasons, including the following factors:

general cyclical patterns of the industries in which our customers operate;
the extent to which we cannot control our fixed and variable costs;
the raw materials in our products may experience significant fluctuations in market price and availability;
certain raw materials constitute hazardous materials that may give rise to costly environmental and safety claims;
legislation regarding the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in our products;
risks involved in our operations such as disruption of markets, changes in import and export laws, environmental regulations, currency restrictions and local currency exchange rate fluctuations;
our ability to raise our selling prices to our customers when our product costs increase;
the extent to which we are able to efficiently utilize our global manufacturing facilities and optimize our capacity;
general economic conditions in the markets in which we operate;
competitiveness of the battery markets throughout the world;
our timely development of competitive new products and product enhancements in a changing environment and the acceptance of such products and product enhancements by customers;
our ability to adequately protect our proprietary intellectual property, technology and brand names;
litigation and regulatory proceedings to which we might be subject;
changes in our market share in the geographic business segments where we operate;
our ability to implement our cost reduction initiatives successfully and improve our profitability;
quality problems associated with our products;
our ability to implement business strategies, including our acquisition strategy, manufacturing expansion and restructuring plans;
our acquisition strategy may not be successful in locating advantageous targets;
our ability to successfully integrate any assets, liabilities, customers, systems and management personnel we acquire into our operations and our ability to realize related revenue synergies and cost savings within expected time frames;
potential goodwill impairment charges, future impairment charges and fluctuations in the fair values of reporting units or of assets in the event projected financial results are not achieved within expected time frames;
our debt and debt service requirements which may restrict our operational and financial flexibility, as well as imposing unfavorable interest and financing costs;
our ability to maintain our existing credit facilities or obtain satisfactory new credit facilities;
adverse changes in our short and long-term debt levels under our credit facilities;
our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our variable-rate debt;
our ability to attract and retain qualified management and personnel;
our ability to maintain good relations with labor unions;
credit risk associated with our customers, including risk of insolvency and bankruptcy;
our ability to successfully recover in the event of a disaster affecting our infrastructure;
terrorist acts or acts of war, could cause damage or disruption to our operations, our suppliers, channels to market or customers, or could cause costs to increase, or create political or economic instability; and
the operation, capacity and security of our information systems and infrastructure.

20


This list of factors that may affect future performance is illustrative, but by no means exhaustive. Accordingly, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty.

In the following discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition, certain financial measures may be considered “non-GAAP financial measures” under Securities and Exchange Commission rules. These rules require supplemental explanation and reconciliation, which is provided in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. EnerSys’ management uses the non-GAAP measures “primary working capital”, “primary working capital percentage” and capital expenditures in its evaluation of business segment cash flow and financial position performance. These disclosures have limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for cash flow determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Management believes that this non-GAAP supplemental information is helpful in understanding the Company’s ongoing operating results.

Overview

EnerSys (the “Company,” “we,” or “us”) is the world’s largest manufacturer, marketer and distributor of industrial batteries. We also manufacture, market and distribute products such as battery chargers, power equipment, battery accessories, and outdoor cabinet enclosures. Additionally, we provide related aftermarket and customer-support services for our products. We market our products globally to over 10,000 customers in more than 100 countries through a network of distributors, independent representatives and our internal sales force.
We operate and manage our business in three geographic regions of the world—Americas, EMEA and Asia, as described below. Our business is highly decentralized with manufacturing locations throughout the world. More than half of our manufacturing capacity is located outside the United States, and approximately 60% of our net sales were generated outside the United States. The Company has three reportable business segments based on geographic regions, defined as follows:

Americas, which includes North and South America, with our segment headquarters in Reading, Pennsylvania, USA;
EMEA, which includes Europe, the Middle East and Africa, with our segment headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland; and
Asia, which includes Asia, Australia and Oceania, with our segment headquarters in Singapore.

We have two primary product lines: reserve power and motive power products. Net sales classifications by product line are as follows:

Reserve power products are used for backup power for the continuous operation of critical applications in telecommunications systems, uninterruptible power systems, or “UPS” applications for computer and computer-controlled systems, and other specialty power applications, including medical and security systems, premium starting, lighting and ignition applications, in switchgear, electrical control systems used in electric utilities, large-scale energy storage, energy pipelines, in commercial aircraft, satellites, military aircraft, submarines, ships and tactical vehicles. Reserve power products also include thermally managed cabinets and enclosures for electronic equipment and batteries.
Motive power products are used to provide power for electric industrial forklifts used in manufacturing, warehousing and other material handling applications as well as mining equipment, diesel locomotive starting and other rail equipment.

Economic Climate

Recent indicators continue to suggest a mixed trend in economic activity among the different geographical regions. Economic activity continues to strengthen in North America while EMEA is experiencing limited growth. Asia region continues to grow faster than any other region in which we do business, but at a slower pace than a few years ago.

Volatility of Commodities and Foreign Currencies

Our most significant commodity and foreign currency exposures are related to lead and the euro, respectively. Historically, volatility of commodity costs and foreign currency exchange rates have caused large swings in our production costs. As the global economic climate changes, we anticipate that our commodity costs and foreign currency exposures may continue to fluctuate as they have in the past several years. Overall, on a consolidated basis, we have experienced stable trends more recently in our revenue and order rates and commodity cost changes have not been substantial. However, we have experienced lower revenues due to movements in foreign currency exchange rates.

Customer Pricing

Our selling prices fluctuated during the last several years to offset the volatile cost of commodities. Approximately 35% of our revenue is currently subject to agreements that adjust pricing to a market-based index for lead. During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, our selling prices remained relatively flat, compared to the comparable prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe that our financial position is strong, and we have substantial liquidity with $445 million of available cash and cash equivalents and undrawn committed and uncommitted credit lines of approximately $652 million at June 28, 2015 to cover short-term liquidity requirements and anticipated growth in the foreseeable future.


21


In April 2015, we issued $300 million of 5.00% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”) maturing in April 2023, with the net proceeds used primarily to fund the payment of principal and accreted interest outstanding on the Convertible Notes that were settled in July 2015.

A substantial majority of the Company’s cash and investments are held by foreign subsidiaries and are considered to be indefinitely reinvested and expected to be utilized to fund local operating activities, capital expenditure requirements and acquisitions. The Company believes that it has sufficient sources of domestic and foreign liquidity.

On July 17, 2015, we paid the principal and accreted interest outstanding on the 3.375% convertible senior notes due 2038 (the “Convertible Notes”) amounting to $172.4 million in cash and settled the conversion premium by issuing, in the aggregate, 1,889,431 shares of common stock from our treasury shares. Subsequent to the extinguishment of the Convertible Notes, other than the Notes and the 2011 Credit Facility, we have no other significant amount of long-term debt maturing in the near future.

We believe that our strong capital structure and liquidity affords us access to capital for future acquisition and stock repurchase opportunities and continued dividend payments.

Net sales decreased $72.0 million or 11.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 from the comparable period in fiscal 2015. This decrease for the first quarter was the result of a 9% decrease due to foreign currency translation impact and a 3% decrease in organic volume partially offset by a 1% increase due to pricing.

The Americas segment’s net sales decreased $13.9 million or 4.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015, primarily due to a decrease of 3% and 2% in organic volume and foreign currency translation impact, respectively, partially offset by a 1% increase due to pricing.

The EMEA segment’s net sales decreased $45.3 million or 18.7% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015, primarily due to a decrease of 20% due to foreign currency translation impact partially offset by a 1% increase in pricing.

The Asia segment’s net sales decreased $12.8 million or 21.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015, primarily due to a decrease in organic volume and foreign currency translation impact of 16% and 6%, respectively, partially offset by a 1% increase due to pricing.

Net sales of our reserve power products in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased $47.1 million or 15.1% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The decrease was primarily due to foreign currency translation impact and organic volume decrease of 8% each, offset partially by a 1% increase due to pricing.

Net sales of our motive power products in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased by $24.9 million or 7.7% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The decrease was primarily due to foreign currency translation impact of 10% offset partially by a 1% increase each in organic volume and pricing, respectively.

Gross profit decreased $12.2 million or 7.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015 due to foreign currency translation impact and reduced reserve power organic volume partially offset by lower commodity costs. Gross profit, as a percentage of net sales, increased 120 basis points in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The increase in the gross profit margin in the current quarter is primarily attributable to lower commodity costs and improved pricing.

Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales increased 100 basis points in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Operating expenses, excluding the effect of foreign currency translation, increased $1.8 million or 2.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The increase in operating expenses as a percentage of sales is primarily due to payroll related expenses and implementation costs for a new ERP system in the Americas while we experienced lower organic volume. Selling expenses, our main component of operating expenses, were 56.3% of total operating expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, respectively, compared to 58.5% of total operating expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2015, respectively.

Restructuring charges

Included in our first quarter of fiscal 2016 operating results are restructuring charges in Americas and EMEA of $0.6 million each. Included in our first quarter of fiscal 2015 are $1.8 million of restructuring charges, respectively, primarily for staff reductions and other cash charges in EMEA related to the relocation of our motive power and a portion of our reserve power manufacturing from Bulgaria to our facilities in Western Europe.

Operating earnings decreased $2.7 million or 3.7% in the first quarter compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Operating earnings, as a percentage of net sales, increased 100 basis points in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015, primarily on account of the $4.3 million gain on sale of our plant in Chaozhou, in the People's Republic of China ("PRC").

The Americas segment's operating earnings, excluding restructuring charges discussed above, increased in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015, with the operating margin increasing 180 basis points to 14.3%. This increase is attributable to improved product mix and pricing, and lower commodity costs partially offset by implementation costs relating to a new ERP system.

The EMEA segment's operating earnings, excluding restructuring charges discussed above, decreased in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015, with the operating margin decreasing 130 basis points to 10.5%. This decrease primarily reflects foreign currency headwinds and lower reserve power demand.

Operating earnings decreased in the Asia segment in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015, primarily due to costs associated with the transition to our new plant in the PRC and reduced telecom sales.

Interest expense of $6.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 (net of interest income of $0.6 million) was $1.4 million higher than the interest expense of $4.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 (net of interest income of $0.3 million).

The increase in interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the comparable prior year period of fiscal 2015 is primarily due to higher average debt outstanding. Our average debt outstanding (reflecting the reduction of the Convertible Notes discount) was $608.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to $325.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The increase in our average debt was mainly due to the fiscal 2015 share repurchase program and the issuance of $300 million Notes, the net proceeds of which were used to pay the Convertible Notes as discussed in Note 9 and Note 15 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. The average Convertible Notes discount excluded from our average debt outstanding was $0.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and $8.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

Included in interest expense is non-cash, accreted interest on the Convertible Notes of $1.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and $2.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. For more information, see Note 9 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. Also included in interest expense are non-cash charges for deferred financing fees of $0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively, in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and first quarter of fiscal 2015.

Other (income) expense, net in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was expense of $0.7 million compared to expense of $1.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The decrease in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015 is primarily attributable to foreign currency losses of $1.4 million offset by miscellaneous income of $1.2 million. Foreign currency losses in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 were $0.8 million.

The Company’s income tax provision consists of federal, state and foreign income taxes. The tax provision for the first quarters of fiscal 2016 and 2015 were based on the estimated effective tax rates applicable for the full years ending March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, respectively, after giving effect to items specifically related to the interim periods. Our effective income tax rate with respect to any period may be volatile based on the mix of income in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate and the amount of our consolidated income before taxes.

The consolidated effective income tax rates for the first quarters of fiscal 2016 and 2015 were 22.7% and 25.3%, respectively. The rate decrease in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2015 is primarily due to the subsequent recognition of a previously unrecognized tax position related to one of our foreign subsidiaries and changes in the mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions.

Foreign income as a percentage of worldwide income is estimated to be 57% for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to 54% for the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The foreign effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and 2015 were 12.8% and 15.3%, respectively. The rate decrease compared to the prior year period is primarily due to the subsequent recognition of a previously unrecognized tax position related to one of our foreign subsidiaries and changes in the mix of earnings among tax jurisdictions. Income from our Swiss subsidiary comprised a substantial portion of our overall foreign mix of income and is taxed at an effective income tax rate of approximately 7%.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies from those discussed under the caption “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our 2015 Annual Report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating activities provided cash of $82.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to $41.8 million in the comparable period of fiscal 2015. In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, net earnings of $47.9 million, depreciation and amortization of $13.6 million, non-cash charges relating to stock-based compensation of $4.2 million and non-cash interest of $1.8 million were offset by a gain of $4.3 million on sale of our facility in the PRC and deferred taxes of $4.4 million. Also contributing to our cash provided from operating activities was the decrease in primary working capital of $31.0 million, net of currency translation changes, offset by decrease of $7.7 million in other accrued expenses primarily for payments related to sales and payroll related incentives.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2015, net earnings of $49.1 million, depreciation and amortization of $14.3 million, non-cash charges relating to restructuring charges of $0.4 million were partially offset by cash used for the increase in primary working capital of $19.4 million, net of currency translation changes.

Primary working capital for this purpose is trade accounts receivable, plus inventories, minus trade accounts payable. The resulting net amount is divided by the trailing three month net sales (annualized) to derive a primary working capital percentage. Primary working capital was $624.9 million (yielding a primary working capital percentage of 27.8%) at June 28, 2015, $636.6 million (yielding a primary working capital percentage of 25.3%) at March 31, 2015 and $683.0 million at June 29, 2014 (yielding a primary working capital percentage of 26.9%). The primary working capital percentage of 27.8% at June 28, 2015 is 250 basis points higher than that for March 31, 2015, and is 90 basis points higher than that for the prior year period. Primary working capital percentage increased during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 largely due to an increase in accounts receivables as a percentage of annualized sales.

Investing activities used cash of $11.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 and were primarily comprised of capital expenditures of $19.7 million offset by proceeds from the sale of our manufacturing facility in Chaozhou, in the PRC for $9.2 million.

Investing activities used cash of $14.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and were primarily comprised of capital expenditures.

Financing activities provided cash of $99.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 primarily due to the issuance of $300.0 million of Notes, revolver borrowings and repayments of $10.0 million and $185.0 million, respectively, deferred finance fees paid amounting to $4.8 million relating to the Notes, purchase of treasury stock for $0.6 million and payment of cash dividends to our stockholders of $7.8 million. Taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards, net of option proceeds and related tax benefits resulted in a net outflow of $11.8 million. Net repayments on short-term debt were $0.7 million.

Financing activities used cash of $31.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 primarily due to borrowings and repayments under the 2011 Credit Facility of $81.6 million and $43.0 million, respectively, repurchase of our common stock for $45.6 million and payment of cash dividends to our stockholders of $8.2 million. Taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards, net of option proceeds and related tax benefits resulted in a net outflow of $12.1 million. Net repayments on short-term debt were $3.9 million.

As a result of the above, total cash and cash equivalents increased by $175.9 million to $444.8 million, in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to a decrease of $5.2 million to $234.9 million, in the comparable period of fiscal 2015.

All obligations under our 2011 Credit Facility are secured by, among other things, substantially all of our U.S. assets. The 2011 Credit Facility contains various covenants which, absent prepayment in full of the indebtedness and other obligations, or the receipt of waivers, limit our ability to conduct certain specified business transactions, buy or sell assets out of the ordinary course of business, engage in sale and leaseback transactions, pay dividends and take certain other actions. There are no prepayment penalties on loans under this credit facility.
We are in compliance with all covenants and conditions under our credit agreement. We believe that we will continue to comply with these covenants and conditions, and that we have the financial resources and the capital available to fund the foreseeable organic growth in our business and to remain active in pursuing further acquisition opportunities. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2015 Annual Report and Note 9 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a detailed description of our debt.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

A table of our obligations is contained in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Contractual Obligations of our 2015 Annual Report for the year ended March 31, 2015. As of June 28, 2015, we had no significant changes to our contractual obligations table contained in our 2015 Form 10-K, which reflected the issuance of the $300 million of Notes and the redemption of the Convertible Notes in the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Market Risks

Our cash flows and earnings are subject to fluctuations resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and raw material costs. We manage our exposure to these market risks through internally established policies and procedures and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. Our policy does not allow speculation in derivative instruments for profit or execution of derivative instrument contracts for which there are no underlying exposures. We do not use financial instruments for trading purposes and are not a party to any leveraged derivatives. We monitor our underlying market risk exposures on an ongoing basis and believe that we can modify or adapt our hedging strategies as needed.

Counterparty Risks

We have entered into lead forward purchase contracts and foreign exchange forward and purchased option contracts to manage the risk associated with our exposures to fluctuations resulting from changes in raw material costs and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company’s agreements are with creditworthy financial institutions. Those contracts that result in a liability position at June 28, 2015 are $6.2 million (pre-tax), therefore, there is minimal risk of nonperformance by these counterparties. Those contracts that result in an asset position at June 28, 2015 are $2.1 million (pre-tax) and the vast majority of these will settle within one year. The impact on the Company due to nonperformance by the counterparties has been evaluated and not deemed material.

Interest Rate Risks

We are exposed to changes in variable U.S. interest rates on borrowings under our credit agreements as well as short term borrowings in our foreign subsidiaries.

A 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have increased interest expense, on an annualized basis, by approximately $1.7 million on the variable rate portions of our debt.

Commodity Cost Risks – Lead Contracts

We have a significant risk in our exposure to certain raw materials. Our largest single raw material cost is for lead, for which the cost remains volatile. In order to hedge against increases in our lead cost, we have entered into forward contracts with financial institutions to fix the price of lead. A vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year. We had the following contracts outstanding at the dates shown below:

Based on approximate annual lead requirements for the periods then ended.

For the remaining three quarters of this fiscal year, we believe approximately 59% of the cost of our lead requirements is known. This takes into account the hedge contracts in place at June 28, 2015, lead purchased by June 28, 2015 that will be reflected in future costs under our FIFO accounting treatment, and the benefit from our lead tolling program.

We estimate that a 10% increase in our cost of lead would have increased our cost of goods sold by approximately $14 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risks

We manufacture and assemble our products globally in the Americas, EMEA and Asia. Approximately 60% of our sales and expenses are transacted in foreign currencies. Our sales revenue, production costs, profit margins and competitive position are affected by the strength of the currencies in countries where we manufacture or purchase goods relative to the strength of the currencies in countries where our products are sold. Additionally, as we report our financial statements in U.S. dollars, our financial results are affected by the strength of the currencies in countries where we have operations relative to the strength of the U.S. dollar. The principal foreign currencies in which we conduct business are the Euro, Swiss franc, British pound, Polish zloty, Chinese renminbi and Mexican peso.

We quantify and monitor our global foreign currency exposures. Our largest foreign currency exposure is from the purchase and conversion of U.S. dollar based lead costs into local currencies in Europe. Additionally, we have currency exposures from intercompany financing and intercompany and third party trade transactions. On a selective basis, we enter into foreign currency forward contracts and purchase option

27


contracts to reduce the impact from the volatility of currency movements; however, we cannot be certain that foreign currency fluctuations will not impact our operations in the future.

To hedge these exposures, we have entered into forward contracts and options with financial institutions to fix the value at which we will buy or sell certain currencies. The vast majority of such contracts are for a period not extending beyond one year. Forward contracts outstanding as of June 28, 2015 and March 31, 2015 were $109.3 million and $102.1 million, respectively. The details of contracts outstanding as of June 28, 2015 were as follows:

ITEM 4.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-Q of EnerSys;
2.
Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

4.
The registrant’s other certifying officer and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the registrant and have:
(a)
Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;
(b)
Designed such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;
(c)
Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

5.
The registrant’s other certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of the registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):
(a)
All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and
(b)
Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
