CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact contained in this report are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements usually relate to future events and anticipated revenues, earnings, cash flows or other aspects of our operations or operating results. Forward-looking statements are often identified by the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “foresee,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “may,” “estimate,” “outlook” and similar expressions, including the negative thereof. The absence of these words, however, does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, beliefs and assumptions concerning future developments and business conditions and their potential effect on us. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, there can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those that we anticipate.
All of our forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties (some of which are significant or beyond our control) and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. Known material factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in the forward-looking statements include those set forth in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 , as well as the following:
Demand for our products and services, which is affected by changes in the price of, and demand for, crude oil and natural gas in domestic and international markets;
Potential liabilities arising out of the installation or use of our products;
U.S. and international laws and regulations, including environmental regulations, that may increase our costs, limit the demand for our products and services or restrict our operations;
Disruptions in the political, regulatory, economic and social conditions of the countries in which we conduct business;
Fluctuations in currency markets worldwide;
Cost overruns that may affect profit realized on our fixed price contracts;
Disruptions in the timely delivery of our backlog and its effect on our future sales, profitability and our relationships with our customers;
The cumulative loss of major contracts or alliances;
Rising costs and availability of raw materials;
A failure of our information technology infrastructure or any significant breach of security;
Our ability to develop and implement new technologies and services, as well as our ability to protect and maintain critical intellectual property assets;
The outcome of uninsured claims and litigation against us;
Deterioration in future expected profitability or cash flows and its effect on our goodwill;
Downgrade in the ratings of our debt could restrict our ability to access the debt capital markets;
Continuing consolidation within our industry; and
Our dependence on the continuing services of certain of our key managers and employees.
We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any of our forward-looking statements after the date they are made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by law.

FMC TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of FMC Technologies, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“FMC Technologies”) have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pertaining to interim financial information. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by GAAP have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto, which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 .
We revised our current derivative financial instrument asset and liability balances as of December 31, 2015 to eliminate certain intercompany derivative transactions. As a result, our total financial position as of December 31, 2015 decreased by $38.0 million .
Our accounting policies are in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with these accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Ultimate results could differ from our estimates.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition and operating results as of and for the periods presented. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these financial statements may not be representative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016 .
Reclassifications— Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.
NOTE 2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ” This update requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU will supersede most existing GAAP related to revenue recognition and will supersede some cost guidance in existing GAAP related to construction-type and production-type contract accounting. Additionally, the ASU will significantly increase disclosures related to revenue recognition. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year, and as a result, is now effective for us on January 1, 2018. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)” which clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” which gives further guidance on identifying performance obligations and clarification of the licensing implementation guidance. Early application is permitted to the original effective date of January 1, 2017. Entities are permitted to apply the amendments either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU recognized at the date of initial application. We have not determined the method to be utilized upon adoption. The impacts that adoption of the ASU is expected to have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures are being evaluated. Additionally, we have not determined the effect of the ASU on our internal control over financial reporting or other changes in business practices and processes.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, “ Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory .” This update requires in scope inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value rather than at the lower of cost or market under existing guidance. The amendments in this ASU are effective for us on January 1, 2017. Early application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

8


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases.” This update requires that a lessee recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Similar to current guidance, the update continues to differentiate between finance leases and operating leases, however this distinction now primarily relates to differences in the manner of expense recognition over time and in the classification of lease payments in the statement of cash flows. The updated guidance leaves the accounting for leases by lessors largely unchanged from existing GAAP. Early application is permitted. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective adoption, with certain relief provisions, for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements when adopted. The guidance will become effective for us on January 1, 2019. The impacts that adoption of the ASU is expected to have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures are being evaluated. Additionally, we have not determined the effect of the ASU on our internal control over financial reporting or other changes in business practices and processes.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” Among other amendments, this update requires that excess tax benefits or deficiencies are recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement, gives an entity the ability to elect to estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures as they occur and permits withholding up to the maximum statutory tax rates as the threshold to qualify for equity classification. The guidance will become effective for us on January 1, 2017. Early application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
Change in Accounting Principle
Effective January 1, 2016, we changed the method of valuing inventory for certain domestic inventories in our surface integrated services business from the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method to the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method under GAAP. The cumulative effect, net of income taxes, of the change in accounting principle was approximately $12.3 million and was recorded as an increase to retained earnings as of January 1, 2013. The statements of income for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2014, and 2015, including interim periods therein, were not retroactively adjusted as the adjustment for each of the periods was not material. We believe the FIFO method is preferable as it better reflects the current value of inventory reported in the consolidated balance sheets, provides for better matching of costs of goods sold with related revenue, provides for greater consistency and uniformity across our operations with respect to the method of inventory valuation, and is the method used by management to monitor the financial results of the business for operational and financial planning.

Restructuring —As a result of the decline in crude oil prices and its effect on the demand for products and services in the oilfield services industry worldwide, beginning in 2015, we initiated a company-wide reduction in workforce intended to reduce costs and better align our workforce with current and anticipated activity levels, which resulted in the continued recognition of severance costs relating to termination benefits and other restructuring charges.
Asset impairments— We conduct impairment tests on long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition over the asset’s remaining useful life. Our review of recoverability of the carrying value of our assets considers several assumptions including the intended use and service potential of the asset.
The prolonged downturn in the energy market and its corresponding impact on our business outlook led us to conclude the carrying amount of certain long-lived assets in our United States surface integrated services business exceeded their fair values. The low commodity price environment’s impact on our outlook for revenue growth and profitability of our U.S. surface integrated services business led us to record impairment charges in our Surface Technologies segment during the three months ended March 31, 2016 . These asset impairments included impairment charges of our flowback plant, property and equipment and related customer relationships intangible assets of $12.4 million and $3.4 million , respectively, to record the assets to their combined fair value of $44.7 million as of March 31, 2016 .
Also, we recorded impairment charges of $15.3 million and $2.8 million , to our wireline equipment and allocated goodwill, respectively, to record the assets to their combined fair value of $20.0 million as of March 31, 2016 . The impairment charges, recorded in our Surface Technologies segment, include wireline operations in both the United States and Canada and relate to the classification of the assets as held for sale. Refer to Note 5 for information related to the classification of these assets as held for sale.
NOTE 5. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
As of March 31, 2016, we classified property, plant, and equipment as held for sale related to our wireline operations in our surface integrated services businesses in the United States and Canada. Prior to and as a result of the held for sale classification, we reviewed the assets for and recorded impairments on the wireline property, plant and equipment and allocated goodwill to the disposal group to adjust their carrying values to fair value. Refer to Note 4 for financial information related to these impairments. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2016, we recognized a $1.4 million loss on sale as a result of adjusting the held for sale assets to fair value less cost to sell. As of March 31, 2016, assets held for sale of $17.9 million are reported in other current assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet and are included in our Surface Technologies segment. We expect the completion of the sale to occur during the second quarter of 2016.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
Commitments associated with leases— In March 2014 we entered into construction and operating lease agreements to finance the construction of manufacturing and office facilities located in Houston, TX. In January 2016 construction of the facilities was completed and rental payments under the operating lease commenced. Upon expiration of the operating lease in September 2021, we have the option to renew the lease, purchase the facilities or re-market the facilities on behalf of the lessor, including certain guarantees of residual value under the re-marketing option.
Contingent liabilities associated with guarantees— In the ordinary course of business, we enter into standby letters of credit, performance bonds, surety bonds and other guarantees with financial institutions for the benefit of our customers, vendors and other parties. The majority of these financial instruments represent guarantees of our future performance.
In August 2014, FMC Technologies entered into an arrangement to guarantee the debt obligations under a revolving credit facility of FMC Technologies Offshore, LLC (“FTO Services”), our joint venture with Edison Chouest Offshore LLC. Under the terms of the guarantee, FMC Technologies and Edison Chouest Offshore LLC jointly and severally guaranteed amounts under the revolving credit facility with a maximum potential amount of future payments of $40.0 million that would become payable if FTO Services defaults in payment under the terms of the revolving credit facility. The approximate term of the guarantee is two years. The liability recognized at inception for the fair value of our obligation as a guarantor was not material, and we expect our future performance under the guarantee to be reasonably possible.
Management does not expect any of these financial instruments to result in losses that, if incurred, would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Contingent liabilities associated with legal matters— We are involved in various pending or potential legal actions or disputes in the ordinary course of our business. Management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions because of their inherent uncertainty. However, management believes that the most probable, ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 12. INCOME TAXES
Our income tax provisions for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, reflected effective tax rates of 23.4% and 20.0% , respectively. Excluding a benefit related to an increase in the amount of prior year foreign earnings considered to be indefinitely reinvested outside the United States, our effective tax rate during the three months ended March 31, 2015 was 26.6% . The year-over-year decrease from this adjusted rate was primarily due to a favorable change in the forecasted country mix of earnings.
Our effective tax rate can fluctuate depending on our country mix of earnings, since our foreign earnings are generally subject to lower tax rates than in the United States. In certain jurisdictions, primarily Singapore and Malaysia, our tax rate is significantly less than the relevant statutory rate due to tax holidays.

NOTE 14. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Under the Amended and Restated FMC Technologies, Inc. Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan (the “Plan”), we have primarily granted awards in the form of nonvested stock units (also known as restricted stock units in the plan document). We recognize compensation expense and the corresponding tax benefits for awards under the Plan. Stock-based compensation expense for nonvested stock units was $18.3 million and $19.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Assumes grant date expected payout
For current-year performance-based awards, actual payouts may vary from zero to 774 thousand shares, contingent upon our performance relative to a peer group of companies with respect to earnings growth and return on investment for the year ending December 31, 2016 . Compensation cost is measured based on the current expected outcome of the performance conditions and may be adjusted until the performance period ends.

Our 2014, 2015 and 2016 market-based awards actual payouts are contingent upon our performance relative to the same peer group of companies with respect to total shareholder return (“TSR”) for the three year periods ending December 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018, respectively. The payout for the TSR metric is determined based on our performance relative to the peer group. A payout is possible regardless of whether our TSR for the three year period is positive or negative. However, if our TSR for the three year period is not positive, the payout with respect to TSR is limited to the target previously established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors regardless of our relative ranking to the peer group. Compensation cost for these awards is calculated using the grant date fair market value, as estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation, and is not subject to change based on future events.

NOTE 15. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
For purposes of mitigating the effect of changes in exchange rates, we hold derivative financial instruments to hedge the risks of certain identifiable and anticipated transactions and recorded assets and liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. The types of risks hedged are those relating to the variability of future earnings and cash flows caused by movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our policy is to hold derivatives only for the purpose of hedging risks associated with anticipated foreign currency purchases and sales created in the normal course of business and not for trading purposes where the objective is solely to generate profit.
Generally, we enter into hedging relationships such that changes in the fair values or cash flows of the transactions being hedged are expected to be offset by corresponding changes in the fair value of the derivatives. For derivative instruments that qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss of the derivative, which does not include the time value component of a forward currency rate, is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, any change in the fair value of those instruments are reflected in earnings in the period such change occurs.
We hold the following types of derivative instruments:
Foreign exchange rate forward contracts —The purpose of these instruments is to hedge the risk of changes in future cash flows of anticipated purchase or sale commitments denominated in foreign currencies and recorded assets and liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. At March 31, 2016, we held the following material net positions:

Refer to Note 16 to these consolidated financial statements for further disclosures related to the fair value measurement process.

We recognized losses of $1.0 million and $0.9 million on cash flow hedges for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, due to hedge ineffectiveness as it was probable that the original forecasted transaction would not occur. Cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions, net of tax, resulted in an accumulated other comprehensive loss of $40.8 million and $87.1 million at March 31, 2016, and December 31, 2015 respectively. We expect to transfer an approximate $25.6 million loss from accumulated OCI to earnings during the next 12 months when the anticipated transactions actually occur. All anticipated transactions currently being hedged are expected to occur by the second half of 2017 .

  _______________________  
(1)  
Certain investments that are measured at fair value using net asset value per share (or its equivalent) have not been classified in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments— The fair value measurement of our equity securities, fixed income and other investment assets is based on quoted prices that we have the ability to access in public markets. Our stable value fund and money market fund are valued at the net asset value of the shares held at the end of the quarter, which is based on the fair value of the underlying investments using information reported by the investment advisor at quarter-end.

21


Derivative financial instruments— We use the income approach as the valuation technique to measure the fair value of foreign currency derivative instruments on a recurring basis. This approach calculates the present value of the future cash flow by measuring the change from the derivative contract rate and the published market indicative currency rate, multiplied by the contract notional values. Credit risk is then incorporated by reducing the derivative’s fair value in asset positions by the result of multiplying the present value of the portfolio by the counterparty’s published credit spread. Portfolios in a liability position are adjusted by the same calculation; however, a spread representing our credit spread is used. Our credit spread, and the credit spread of other counterparties not publicly available are approximated by using the spread of similar companies in the same industry, of similar size and with the same credit rating.
At the present time, we have no credit-risk-related contingent features in our agreements with the financial institutions that would require us to post collateral for derivative positions in a liability position.
Refer to Note 15 for additional disclosure related to derivative financial instruments.
Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis were as follows:
Fair value of long-lived non-financial assets— Long-lived, non-financial assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis for the purposes of calculating impairment. The fair value of our wireline long-lived, non-financial assets measured on a non-recurring basis were determined by Level 1 observable inputs related to its held for sale classification. The fair value measurements of our flowback long-lived, non-financial assets measured on a non-recurring basis were determined by estimating the amount and timing of net future cash flows, which are Level 3 unobservable inputs, and discounting them using a risk-adjusted rate of interest. Significant increases or decreases in actual cash flows may result in valuation changes. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , we recorded asset impairment charges primarily related to our surface integrated services business. Refer to Note 4 for additional disclosure related to these asset impairments.
Other fair value disclosures:
Fair value of debt —The fair value, based on Level 1 quoted market rates, of our 2.00% Notes due 2017 and 3.45% Notes due 2022 (collectively, “Senior Notes”) was approximately $771.1 million at March 31, 2016 and approximately $761.9 million at December 31, 2015 , as compared to the $800.0 million face value of the debt, net of issue discounts, recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Other fair value disclosures— The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, accounts payable, short-term debt, commercial paper, debt associated with our term loan, as well as amounts included in other current assets and other current liabilities that meet the definition of financial instruments, approximate fair value.
Credit risk— By their nature, financial instruments involve risk, including credit risk, for non-performance by counterparties. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables and derivative contracts. We manage the credit risk on financial instruments by transacting only with what management believes are financially secure counterparties, requiring credit approvals and credit limits, and monitoring counterparties’ financial condition. Our maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty is limited to the amount drawn and outstanding on the financial instrument. Allowances for losses on trade receivables are established based on collectability assessments. We mitigate credit risk on derivative contracts by executing contracts only with counterparties that consent to a master netting agreement which permits the net settlement of gross derivative assets against gross derivative liabilities.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Business Outlook
Overall Outlook —The oil and gas industry continued to experience the negative impacts of crude oil price volatility which began in late 2014. The uncertainties regarding the near-term market fundamentals continue to depress crude oil prices exiting the first quarter of 2016. These uncertainties are driven by multiple factors, including continued strength in U.S. oil production and international crude oil supply, especially from OPEC’s and other major non-OPEC countries’ decisions to maintain oil production levels to retain or increase their market share. The expectation of continuing large inventory builds is a major source of uncertainty in the crude oil price forecast, as the capacity of global oil storage to absorb such builds is unknown. The low crude oil price environment led many development prospects to be deferred and near-term capital spending plans of our customers to be reduced, resulting in a significant downturn in demand for our products and services and an overall weaker demand for oilfield services. The timing of any recovery of crude oil prices and business activity is dependent on many variables, but the market corrections necessary to address the oversupply of crude oil are expected to occur over the next couple of years. Although oil companies have reduced their near-term capital investments, most of their capital spending reductions have been in capital exploration budgets that largely affect production levels beyond 2018. However, we believe as long-term demand rises and production naturally declines, commodity prices should recover, allowing our customers to gain confidence to increase their investments in new sources of oil production.
Subsea Technologies —In reaction to the decline in crude oil prices, many of our customers reduced their near-term capital spending plans or deferred new deepwater projects. These capital spending reductions had an adverse effect on our 2016 subsea inbound orders when compared to the prior year. During 2015, we began to reduce our workforce to maintain operating margin improvements and to align our operations with anticipated decreases in future year activity due to delayed subsea project inbound. In addition to continued project execution improvements, we benefited from these restructuring actions during the first quarter of 2016. Our restructuring efforts made our manufacturing more efficient, allowed us to accelerate delivery schedules, increased throughput and reduced the overall capital needs of the business. We expect to take further restructuring actions during the remainder of 2016, including facility consolidation and workforce reductions. We remain focused on ways to reduce customer costs by offering cost-effective approaches to our customers’ project developments, including customer acceptance of integrated business models to help achieve their cost-reduction goals and accelerate achievement of first oil. Many customers, including our alliance customers, are actively exploring ways to utilize our standardized subsea production equipment as operators understand the cost and scheduling benefits that standardization brings to their projects.
In the long-term, we continue to believe deepwater development will remain a significant part of our customers’ portfolio. A critical part of our long-term strategy to maintain our subsea market leadership is to continue to invest in the technologies required to develop our customers’ fields and further expand our capabilities focused on increasing reservoir production over the life of the field.
Surface Technologies —With the decline in crude oil prices, we expected a decline in rig counts and decreased North American land activity to negatively affect all of our Surface Technologies businesses in North America. However, further declines in rig counts in the first quarter of 2016 exceeded our expectations and had a greater impact in our Surface Technologies businesses. We do not expect the North American market to recover in 2016 and expect our restructuring actions to immediately reduce costs and improve our position in the North American market when the market recovers. The timing and pace of recovery in the North American land market, however, remains uncertain. Our international surface wellhead business continues to deliver strong operational results during these challenging times in the oil and gas market. The continued strength in international surface wellhead operational results is attributable to our strong backlog and the inherent geographical mix in which the business operates. Given the uncertainties regarding crude oil prices and its effect on customer spending, we believe the need for further business restructuring is likely to continue throughout 2016 in our Surface Technologies businesses.

Revenue decreased $486.5 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the prior-year quarter. Revenue in the first quarter of 2016 included a $72.6 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation. Revenue decreased across all subsea businesses primarily due to lower inbound orders year-over-year. Additionally, lower market activity led to decreased revenue in our Schilling Robotics and Multi Phase Meters businesses year-over-year. Surface Technologies posted decreased revenue year-over-year which was driven by our fluid control and surface integrated services businesses primarily from lower market activity in North America.
Gross profit (revenue less cost of sales) decreased as a percentage of sales to 21.7% in the first quarter of 2016, from 24.3% in the prior-year quarter. The decline in gross profit as a percentage of sales was due to our Surface Technologies segment which realized lower gross profit margins year-over-year in our fluid control and surface integrated services businesses from lower market activity in North America.
Selling, general and administrative expense decreased $30.6 million year-over-year, resulting from lower commissions and cost reductions in our international surface wellhead business and foreign currency translation.
Information regarding impairment and restructuring expenses incurred during the first quarter of 2016 is incorporated herein by reference from Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The impaired assets are linked to our 2012 acquisition of Pure Energy Services Ltd.
Our income tax provisions for the first quarter of 2016 and 2015 reflected effective tax rates of 23.4% and 20.0%, respectively. Excluding a benefit related to an increase in the amount of prior year foreign earnings considered to be indefinitely reinvested outside the United States, our effective tax rate was 26.6% for the first quarter of 2015. The decrease from this adjusted rate was primarily due to a favorable change in the forecasted country mix of earnings. Our effective tax rate can fluctuate depending on our country mix of earnings since our foreign earnings are generally subject to lower tax rates than in the United States. In certain jurisdictions, primarily Singapore and Malaysia, our tax rate is significantly less than the relevant statutory rate due to tax holidays. The cumulative balance of foreign earnings for which no provision for U.S. income taxes has been recorded was $1,987 million at March 31, 2016. We would need to accrue and pay U.S. tax on such undistributed earnings if these funds were repatriated. We have no current intention to repatriate these earnings.

Subsea Technologies revenue decreased $293.2 million year-over-year. Revenue for the first quarter of 2016 included a $57.0 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation. Excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, total revenue decreased by $236.2 million year-over-year. Subsea Technologies revenue is primarily impacted by the amount of beginning backlog entering the period and the rates of backlog conversion. Revenue decreased across all subsea businesses primarily due to lower inbound orders achieved during 2015 that affected the backlog coming into the current year. Additionally, lower market activity led to decreased revenue in our Schilling Robotics and Multi Phase Meters businesses year-over-year.

Subsea Technologies operating profit as a percent of revenue declined year-over-year and was primarily driven by:
Subsea Systems - 0.9 percentage point decrease due to lower 2015 inbound orders across all subsea businesses, partially offset by improved project execution in our Eastern Region and Asia Pacific subsea businesses; and
Schilling Robotics and Multi Phase Meters - 1.0 percentage point decrease due to decreased volumes from lower market activity.
Operating profit for the first quarter of 2016 included a $8.0 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation and $3.7 million in impairment, restructuring and other severance charges.

Surface Technologies revenue decreased $180.8 million year-over-year. Revenue for the first quarter of 2016 included a $13.9 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation. The decrease in revenue was primarily driven by our surface integrated services and fluid control businesses from lower market activity in North America.
Surface Technologies operating profit as a percent of revenue declined to an operating loss position year-over-year and was primarily driven by:
Surface Integrated Services - 23.5 percentage point decrease related to asset impairment charges in the United States and lower market activity in North America; and
Fluid Control - 3.8 percentage point decrease primarily due to decreased volumes in flowline products resulting from lower activity in the North American shale markets.
Operating loss for the first quarter of 2016 included an $3.8 million unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation, $39.6 million of impairment, restructuring and other severance charges, and $2.2 million in excess and obsolescence inventory charges.

Substantially all of our cash balances are held outside the United States and are generally used to meet the liquidity needs of our non-U.S. operations. Most of our cash held outside the United States could be repatriated to the United States, but under current law, any such repatriation would be subject to U.S. federal income tax, as adjusted for applicable foreign tax credits. We have provided for U.S. federal income taxes on undistributed foreign earnings where we have determined that such earnings are not indefinitely reinvested.
We expect to meet the continuing funding requirements of our U.S. operations with cash generated by such U.S. operations, cash from earnings generated by non-U.S. operations that are not indefinitely reinvested and our existing revolving credit facility. If cash held by non-U.S. operations is required for funding operations in the United States, and if U.S. tax has not previously been provided on the earnings of such operations, we would make a provision for additional U.S. tax in connection with repatriating this cash, which may be material to our cash flows and results of operations.
Net Debt —Net debt, or net cash, is a non-GAAP financial measure reflecting cash and cash equivalents, net of debt. Management uses this non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate our capital structure and financial leverage. We believe net debt, or net cash, is a meaningful financial measure that may assist investors in understanding our financial condition and recognizing underlying trends in our capital structure. Net (debt) cash should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, cash and cash equivalents as determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity.
The following table provides a reconciliation of our cash and cash equivalents to net debt, utilizing details of classifications from our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The change in our net debt position was primarily due to cash generated from operations, partially offset by capital expenditures and repurchases of common stock.
Cash Flows
We generated $109.0 million and $175.6 million in cash flows from operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease in cash from operating activities was due to lower income generated from operations, partially offset by an improvement in our working capital position. Our working capital balances can vary significantly depending on the payment and delivery terms on key contracts in our portfolio of projects.
Investing activities used $42.7 million and $81.4 million in cash flows during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The decrease in cash flows used by investing activities was due to lower capital expenditures in 2016, partially offset by investments made in our joint ventures. Refer to Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information regarding our equity method investments.
Financing activities provided $37.3 million and used $30.9 million in cash flows during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase in cash flows from financing activities was due to an increase in our commercial paper position during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

_______________________    
(a)  
Under our commercial paper program, we have the ability to access up to $1.5 billion of financing through our commercial paper dealers. Our available capacity under our revolving credit facility is reduced by any outstanding commercial paper.
Committed credit available under our revolving credit facility provides the ability to issue our commercial paper obligations on a long-term basis. We had $421.3 million of commercial paper issued under our facility at March 31, 2016. As we had both the ability and intent to refinance these obligations on a long-term basis, our commercial paper borrowings were classified as long-term in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2016.
As of March 31, 2016, we were in compliance with all restrictive covenants under our revolving credit facility.
Refer to Part II, Item 8 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 for further information related to our credit facility.
Credit Risk Analysis
Valuations of derivative assets and liabilities reflect the value of the instruments, including the values associated with counterparty risk. These values must also take into account our credit standing, thus including in the valuation of the derivative instrument the value of the net credit differential between the counterparties to the derivative contract. Our methodology includes the impact of both counterparty and our own credit standing. Adjustments to our derivative assets and liabilities related to credit risk were not material for any period presented.
Additional information about credit risk is incorporated herein by reference from Note 16 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Outlook
Historically, we have generated our liquidity and capital resources primarily through operations and, when needed, through our credit facility. We have $1,578.7 million of capacity available under our revolving credit facility that we expect to utilize if working capital needs temporarily increase. The volatility in credit, equity and commodity markets creates some uncertainty for our businesses. However, management believes, based on our current financial condition, existing backlog levels and current expectations for future market conditions, that we will continue to meet our short- and long-term liquidity needs with a combination of cash on hand, cash generated from operations and access to capital markets. Although we expect to continue to reach payment milestones on many of our projects, we expect our consolidated operating cash flow position in 2016 to slightly decrease as a result of the negative impact the decline in commodity prices will have on our overall business. Given the recent downturn in the oilfield services industry, many of our key customers have requested price concessions. Additionally, our primary customer in Brazil has requested some re-scheduling of backlog deliveries. Consequently, any discounts or material product delivery delays that may ultimately be mutually agreed to with our key customers may adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows.
We project spending approximately $150 million in 2016 for capital expenditures, largely towards maintenance expenditures in our subsea service business. However, projected capital expenditures for 2016 do not include any contingent capital that may be needed to respond to a contract award. Further, we expect to continue our stock repurchases authorized by our Board of Directors, with the timing and amounts of these repurchases dependent upon market conditions and liquidity.
During the remainder of 2016, we expect to make contributions of approximately $45.0 million and $5.3 million to our domestic and international pension plans, respectively. Actual contribution amounts are dependent upon plan investment returns, changes in pension obligations, regulatory environments and other economic factors. We update our pension estimates annually during the fourth quarter or more frequently upon the occurrence of significant events. Additionally, we expect to make payments of approximately $6.0 million to our U.S. Non-Qualified Defined Benefit Pension Plan during the remainder of 2016.

31


We continue to evaluate acquisitions, divestitures and joint ventures that meet our strategic priorities. Our intent is to maintain a level of financing sufficient to meet these objectives.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Information related to guarantees is incorporated herein by reference from Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 for a discussion of our critical accounting estimates. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 , there were no changes to our identified critical accounting estimates. Information related to changes in judgments and assumptions surrounding impairments is incorporated herein by reference from Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
OTHER MATTERS
As previously disclosed, during the second quarter of 2014, we received an inquiry and a subpoena from the SEC seeking information about paid-time-off accruals within the automation and control business unit. The inquiry continued into the second half of 2014 and covered revenue and expenses in certain business units. Pursuant to additional subpoenas received in 2015, we provided information regarding our tax department and our previously disclosed accounting treatment for uncertain foreign tax positions. We have fully responded to all of the SEC’s requests for information and have cooperated and engaged in discussions with the SEC. On January 19, 2016 we received a notice indicating that the SEC had made a preliminary determination to recommend that the SEC Division of Enforcement file a civil enforcement action against the Company for alleged violations of the reporting, books-and-records and internal control provisions of U.S. securities laws. We believe that no enforcement action is warranted against us, and we intend to vigorously defend any claims that may be brought. We have discussed these matters with our independent registered public accounting firm and our Audit Committee. FMC Technologies continues to cooperate and has been discussing the resolution of this matter with the governmental authorities.
On March 28, 2016 we received an inquiry from the United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) related to the DOJ’s investigation of whether certain services Unaoil S.A.M. provided to its clients, including FMC Technologies, violated the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. We are cooperating with the DOJ’s inquiry and are conducting our own internal investigation.
We are involved in various pending or potential legal actions or disputes in the ordinary course of our business, and management is unable to predict the ultimate outcome of these actions because of their inherent uncertainty. However, management believes that the most probable, ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidation financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
