DOCUMENTS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE
Portions of the definitive Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on April 20, 2007 are incorporated by reference in Part III.
Carlisle Companies Incorporated (Carlisle or the Company) was incorporated in 1986 in Delaware as a holding company for Carlisle Corporation, whose operations began in 1917, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Carlisle is a diversified manufacturing company consisting of nine operating companies which manufacture and distribute a broad range of products. Additional information is contained in Items 7 and 8.
While Carlisle manages and previously reported its businesses under three operating groups, Construction Materials, Industrial Components and Diversified Components, effective September 30, 2006, the Company presents five financial reporting segments.
The Companys executive offices are located at 13925 Ballantyne Corporate Place, Suite 400, Charlotte, North Carolina. The Companys main telephone number is (704) 501-1100. The Companys Internet website address is www.carlisle.com. Through this Internet website (found in the Financial Info link), the Company makes available free of charge its Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports, as soon as reasonably practicable after these reports are electronically filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Management Philosophy/Business Strategy
The Company practices a highly decentralized management style. The presidents of the various operating companies are given considerable autonomy and have a significant level of independent responsibility for their businesses and their performance. The Company believes that a decentralized structure encourages entrepreneurial action, and enhances responsive decision making thereby enabling each operation to better serve its customers and react quickly to its customer needs.
The Companys executive management role is to (i) provide general management oversight and counsel in a manner consistent with the Companys decentralized management approach, (ii) manage the Companys portfolio of businesses including identifying acquisition candidates and assisting in acquiring candidates identified by the operating companies, as well as identifying businesses for divestiture in an effort to optimize the portfolio, (iii) allocate and manage capital, (iv) evaluate and motivate operating management personnel, and (v) provide selected other services.
The Company strives to be the low cost manufacturer in the various niche markets it serves. The Company is dedicated to achieving low cost positions and providing service excellence based on, among other things, superior quality, on-time delivery and short cycle times.
The Companys primary financial objectives for continuing operations in 2007 include: (i) maintain a strong and flexible balance sheet, (ii) realize return on beginning net equity at greater than 15%, (iii) grow organic sales at 150% of the percentage growth of United States of America (United States or U.S.) national gross domestic product, (iv) improve cash flow from operations, and (v) maintain a return on invested capital at greater than 10%. These are goals the Company strives to achieve. The Company may not be successful in each instance. For more information, see the Forward-Looking Statements disclosure in Item 7.
The Company has a long-standing acquisition program. Traditionally, the Company has focused on acquiring new businesses that can be added to existing operations (bolt-ons). In addition, the Company
2
considers acquiring new businesses which can operate independently from other Carlisle companies. Factors considered by the Company in making an acquisition include consolidation opportunities, technology, customer dispersion, operating capabilities and growth potential. For more details regarding acquisitions completed over the past three years, see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
The Company also continually assesses its portfolio of businesses from the standpoint of both industry attractiveness and business unit strength. In 2006, the Company sold substantially all of the operations comprising the Carlisle Systems and Equipment businesses, consisting of Carlisle Process Systems, Walker Stainless Equipment, CPS Pharma, and Walker Transportation. For more details regarding the consolidation and divestiture of the Companys businesses during the past three years, see Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 and Discontinued Operations, also in Item 1 below.
Information on the Companys revenues, earnings and identifiable assets for continuing operations by industry segment for the last three fiscal years is as follows (amounts in thousands):

Description of Businesses by Reportable Segment
The Construction Materials segment includes the construction materials business, which manufactures and sells rubber (EPDM), FleeceBACK® and thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) roofing systems for non-residential low-slope roofs. In addition, the construction materials business markets and sells poly vinyl chloride (PVC) membrane and accessories purchased from third party suppliers. The Company also manufactures and distributes energy-efficient rigid foam insulation panels for substantially all roofing applications. Roofing materials and insulation are sold together in warranted systems or separately in non-warranted systems to the new construction, re-roofing and maintenance, general construction and industrial markets. Through its coatings and waterproofing operation, this business manufactures and sells liquid and spray-applied waterproofing membranes, vapor and air barriers, and HVAC duct sealants and hardware for the commercial and residential construction markets. The roofing systems, as well as the coatings and waterproofing products, are sold through a network of authorized sales representatives and distributors.
The construction materials business operates manufacturing facilities located throughout the United States, its primary market. With respect to its insulation operations, in 2005, the construction materials business announced the construction of new insulation facilities in Tooele, UT and Smithfield, PA. These two new insulation facilities complement the four existing insulation operations in Kingston, NY, Franklin Park, IL, Lake City, FL and Terrell, TX. EPDM manufacturing operations are located in Carlisle, PA and Greenville, IL.
Raw materials include EPDM polymer, TPO polymer, carbon black, processing oils, solvents, asphalt, MDI, polyol, polyester fabric, black facer paper, OSB clay and various metal cans as well as cardboard boxes for product packaging. Critical raw materials generally have at least two vendor sources to better assure adequate supply. For raw materials that are single sourced, the vendor typically has multiple processing facilities to better assure adequate supply. In general, this business believes that sufficient quantities of raw materials can be obtained through normal sources to avoid interruption of production in 2007.
Sales and earnings tend to be somewhat higher in the second and third quarters due to increased construction activity during those periods.
The construction materials business working capital practices include the following:
(i) Standard accounts receivable payment terms of 45 days to 90 days.
(ii) Standard accounts payable payment terms of 30 days to 45 days.
(iii) Inventories are maintained in sufficient quantities to meet forecasted demand. Due to the seasonal demand of the construction market, inventories tend to be higher in the first quarter.
4
The construction materials business serves a large and diverse customer base. No customer represented more than 10% of this segments revenues in 2006.
This business competes in the construction materials market, a market with numerous competitors that produce roofing, insulation and waterproofing products for commercial and residential applications. The level of competition within the market varies by product line. The construction materials business competes through pricing, innovative products, warranties and customer service. This business offers extended warranty programs on its installed roofing systems, ranging from five (5) years to thirty (30) years and, subject to certain exclusions, cover leaks in the roofing system attributable to a problem with the particular product or the installation of the product. In order to qualify for the warranty, the building owner must have the roofing system installed by an authorized roofing applicatoran independent roofing contractor trained by the Company to install its roofing systems.
The Industrial Components segment is comprised of the tire and wheel business and the power transmission belt business. The tire and wheel business manufactures and sells bias-ply, non-automotive rubber tires as well as stamped and roll-formed steel wheels. These products are sold by direct sales personnel to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), mass merchandisers and various tire and wheel distributors located primarily in the U.S. and Canada. Primary markets served by the tire and wheel business include lawn and gardenoutdoor power equipment mass merchant, lawn and gardenoutdoor power equipment dealer, trailer, all-terrain vehicle, golf cart, agriculture, and the related aftermarkets. The tire and wheel business also manufactures and sells styled wheels to the automotive aftermarket. Individual project managers are assigned to each of these various markets and are responsible for strategy development, product concept and development as well as product life cycle management.
The power transmission belt business manufactures and sells industrial belts and related components to OEMs, mass merchandisers and various wholesale and industrial distributors located primarily in the U.S. and Canada. It also sells processed raw materials to OEMs. All sales are made by direct sales personnel. Primary markets served by the power transmission belt business include lawn and garden, home appliance, power sports/recreational vehicles, fitness, agriculture, and the related aftermarkets.
Both businesses operate manufacturing facilities in the United States and jointly operate a manufacturing facility in Shenzhen, China.
The tire and wheel business primary raw materials include steel used to manufacture wheels, as well as rubber and other oil based commodities required for tire production. Raw materials used by the power transmission belt business include rubber, various textile cords and oil based commodities required for belt production. Both companies source their raw materials worldwide to better assure adequate supply. Both businesses believe that sufficient quantities of their respective raw materials can be obtained through normal sources to avoid interruption of production in 2007.
Sales and earnings for both Industrial Components businesses tend to be somewhat higher in the first six (6) months of the year due to peak sales in the lawn and garden and agricultural markets.
The working capital practices of both businesses include:
(i) Standard accounts receivable payment terms of 30 days to 90 days.
(ii) Standard accounts payable payment terms of 30 days to 45 days.
(iii) Inventories are maintained in sufficient quantities to meet forecasted demand and are generally higher in the fourth and first quarters to meet seasonal demand. Inventories tend to increase in the fourth quarter in advance of anticipated seasonal demand.
5
Both the tire and wheel and power transmission belt businesses have several significant OEM customers, however, no individual customer accounted for more than 10% of segment sales in 2006.
The tire and wheel business competes globally against companies having manufacturing facilities in the Far East. The power transmission belt business also faces global competition with its major competitors having manufacturing operations in the United States, Mexico and the Far East. For both businesses, product lines serving most markets tend to be price competitive. Both businesses strive to achieve competitive advantage through low cost production, distribution capability, customer service, quality and manufacturing flexibility.
The Transportation Products segment is comprised of the specialty trailer business, which manufactures and sells truck trailers to a variety of markets. Sales are categorized as follows: (i) constructionincludes open-deck trailers used by contractors for hauling equipment to and from sites or by rental companies for equipment delivery, (ii) material haulingincludes various dump trailer lines, such as steel bottom-dumps, side-dumps, end-dumps and live-bottoms as well as aluminum end dump and pneumatic bulk tank trailers, (iii) specializedincludes large-capacity multi-unit trailers and specially designed trailers for specific hauling purposes, and (iv) commercialincludes trailers sold for use by truckers for over-the-road hauling and general freight. A majority of sales in this business are to dealers with the balance sold direct to end-users such as rental companies, national accounts, heavy-haulers and waste haulers. The specialty trailer business operates manufacturing facilities in the U.S., which is its primary market.
The specialty trailer business raw materials include aluminum, high-tensile steel, lumber, tires, axles, suspensions, hydraulic and electrical components. Critical raw materials generally have at least two vendor sources to better assure adequate supply. The Company believes that sufficient quantities of their key raw materials can be obtained in 2007.
The operations of the specialty trailer business are generally not seasonal in nature.
This segments working capital practices include:
(i) Standard accounts receivable payment terms of 10 days to 40 days.
(ii) Standard accounts payable payment terms of 10 days to 60 days.
(iii) Inventories are maintained in sufficient quantities to meet forecasted demand.
This business serves a diverse customer base. No individual customer accounted for more than 10% of segment sales in 2006.
The specialty trailer business products compete primarily based on quality and options as well as price. The commercial and material hauling products compete primarily on price. Conversely, the large-capacity multi-unit trailers manufactured for specialized purposes tend to compete primarily on quality and options.
Specialty Products includes the on-highway and off-highway motion control systems business. On-highway products include heavy-duty friction blocks, brake shoes and disc linings, as well as brake shoe remanufacturing and relining for on-highway Class 6, 7 and 8 trucks. These products are sold to heavy-duty truck and trailer OEMs, brake and axle OEMs, as well as through an aftermarket distribution channel by direct sales personnel.
6
Off-highway products include braking systems for off-highway and industrial equipment, specialty friction products, as well as brake actuation systems for on-highway towed vehicles. These products are sold to heavy-duty equipment OEMs, clutch and brake OEMs, replacement part distributors and trailer distributors by direct sales personnel.
The motion control systems business operates manufacturing facilities in the United States, which is its primary market. In 2005, the Company acquired a heavy-duty brake lining and brake shoe facility in Hangzhou, China. The Hangzhou, China facility is used primarily to manufacture product to export to the United States. The off-highway business products are sold into the European market through a light assembly, warehouse operation maintained in Zevenaar, The Netherlands as well as a facility in Pontypool, Wales. The Pontypool, Wales, facility was acquired to operate the Companys off-highway brake assets purchased from ArvinMeritor, Inc in 2005.
Raw materials used in on-highway friction and brake shoe product producing plants include fiberglass, phenolic resin, steel, metallic chips and various other organic materials. Although the supply of fiberglass, resin and metal chips has become more constrained, the Company has not encountered any significant availability issues for its on-highway key raw materials and believes that adequate quantities can be obtained in 2007. The raw materials used for off-highway products are diverse. These brake manufacturing operations require the use of various metal products such as castings, pistons, springs and bearings. With respect to its friction products, the raw materials are similar to those described for the on-highway products. Although availability of the off-highway friction products has become more constrained, this business believes that adequate quantities of all of its raw materials can be obtained in 2007.
Sales and earnings for the on-highway products tend to be strongest in the second quarter to coincide with increased truck and trailer maintenance typically scheduled in the spring. Sales and earnings for the off-highway motion products are not seasonal.
With respect to working capital, practices include the following:
(i) Standard accounts receivable payment terms of 30 days to 60 days.
(ii) Standard accounts payable payment terms of 30 days to 45 days.
(iii) Inventories are maintained in sufficient quantities to meet forecasted demand.
No customer accounted for more than 10% of segment sales in 2006, with the off-highway customer base being somewhat more diverse. The Companys relationships with its largest OEM customers impact aftermarket participation in that acceptance of product by these OEMs facilitates aftermarket sales.
Differentiation between competitors is based primarily on price.
The General Industry segment includes the Companys foodservice business, the high-performance wire and cable business, and the refrigerated truck body business.
The Companys foodservice products business manufactures and distributes (i) commercial and institutional foodservice permanentware, table coverings, cookware, display pieces, light equipment and supplies to restaurants, hotels, hospitals, nursing homes, schools and correctional facilities, and (ii) industrial brooms, brushes, mops, rotary brushes and carpet care products for industrial, commercial and institutional facilities. The companys product line is distributed from four primary distribution centers located in Charlotte, NC, Oklahoma City, OK, Reno, NV and Zevenaar, The Netherlands to wholesalers, distributors and dealers. These distributor and dealer customers, in turn, sell to commercial and non-commercial foodservice operators and sanitary maintenance professionals. Distributors and dealers are solicited through subcontracted manufacturer representatives and direct sales personnel. The foodservice
7
business operates manufacturing facilities in the United States and Mexico, and sales are made primarily in North America and Europe.
The high-performance wire and cable business manufactures and distributes high-performance wire, cable, connectors and cable assemblies, including RF/microwave connectors and cable assemblies, primarily for the aerospace, business aircraft, defense electronics, test and measurement equipment and wireless infrastructure equipment industries. This business operates manufacturing facilities in the United States and China with the United States being the primary target market for sales. Sales are made by direct sales personnel.
The refrigerated truck bodies business manufactures and sells insulated refrigerated truck bodies to a variety of markets including food, dairy and home delivery. This business main distribution channels are through a factory direct sales staff, and to a lesser extent through a limited dealer network. The refrigerated truck bodies business operates a single manufacturing facility in Rice Lake, WI and sells primarily into the U.S. market.
Raw materials used by the foodservice products business include polymer resins, stainless steel and aluminum. Key raw materials are typically sourced worldwide to better assure adequate supply. The Company believes that sufficient quantities of raw material can be obtained for this business through normal sources to avoid interruption of production in 2007.
The high-performance wire and cable business raw materials include copper conductors that are plated with tin, nickel or silver, polyimide tapes, PTFE tapes, PTFE fine powder resin, thermoplastic resins, stainless steel, machined metals and plastic parts. Key raw materials are typically sourced worldwide to better assure adequate supply. The Company believes that sufficient quantities of raw material can be obtained for this business through normal sources to avoid interruption of production in 2007.
The raw materials and components used by the refrigerated truck bodies business include refrigeration compressors, eutectic holdover plates, mechanical blower refrigeration systems, hydraulic liftgates, fiberglass, polyester resins, polyurethane foam resins, steel, aluminum, plywood, and cast and stainless steel hardware. The Company believes that sufficient quantities of their key raw materials can be obtained in 2007.
The operations of the companies included in this segment are generally not seasonal in nature.
The working capital practices of all businesses within the General Industry segment include:
(i) Standard accounts receivable payment terms of 10 days to 40 days.
(ii) Standard accounts payable payment terms of 10 days to 60 days.
(iii) Inventories are maintained in sufficient quantities to meet forecasted demand.
Each business within this segment had significant customers in 2006, however, no individual customer accounted for more than 11% of segment sales in 2006.
All three businesses in this segment are engaged in markets that are generally highly competitive. The foodservice products business competes primarily on price, service and product performance. Product performance, either mechanical or electrical in nature, is the number one competitive criterion for the high-performance wire and cable business. The refrigerated truck bodies business competes primarily on quality and performance with an emphasis on thermal efficiency.
As part of its commitment to concentrate on its core businesses, in November of 2005 the Company announced plans to sell the systems and equipment businesses, consisting of Carlisle Process Systems,
8
Walker Stainless Equipment, CPS Pharma, and Walker Transportation. The Company completed the sale of these operations in 2006. The Company also expects to complete the sale of the giftware operations of the foodservice products business in 2007. In 2004, the Company disclosed plans to sell three businesses including the plastic components operation of the tire and wheel business, formerly presented within the Industrial Components segment, the pottery operations of the foodservice products business, previously reported within the General Industry segment, as well as all operations of Carlisle Engineered Products, which comprised the former Automotive Components segment. These sales were completed in 2005. The assets of these operations have met the criteria for, and have been classified as held for sale in accordance with SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. In addition, results of operations for these businesses, and any gains or losses recognized from their sale, are reported as discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS 144.
The Companys products are discussed above and in additional detail in Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
The Company owns or holds the right to use a variety of patents, trademarks, licenses, inventions, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights. The Company has adopted a variety of measures and programs to ensure the continued validity and enforceability of its various intellectual property rights. While the Companys intellectual property is important to its success, the loss or expiration of any particular intellectual property right would not materially affect the Company or any of its segments.
Backlog of orders from continuing operations generally is not a significant factor in most of the Companys businesses, as most of the Companys products have relatively short order-to-delivery periods. Backlog of orders from continuing operations was $273.6 million at December 31, 2006 and $298.5 million at December 31, 2005; however, the majority of these orders are not firm in nature.
At December 31, 2006, the Company had no material contracts that were subject to renegotiation of profits or termination at the election of the U.S. government.
The Companys research and development expenses from continuing operations were $15.1 million in 2006 compared to $15.4 million in 2005 and $14.6 million in 2004.
Carlisle believes its operations generally are in substantial compliance with applicable regulations. In a few instances, particular plants and businesses have been the subject of administrative and legal proceedings with governmental agencies or private parties relating to the discharge or potential discharge of regulated substances. Where necessary, these matters have been addressed with specific consent orders to achieve compliance. Carlisle believes that continued compliance will not have any material impact on the Companys financial position and will not require significant capital expenditures.
9
The Company had approximately 11,000 employees in its continuing operations at December 31, 2006.
For foreign sales, export sales and an allocation of the assets of the Companys continuing operations, see Note 19 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
On May 5, 2006, Richmond D. McKinnish, the Companys Chief Executive Officer, submitted to the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE) the Annual CEO Certification and certified therein that he was not aware of any violation by the Company of the NYSEs Corporate Governance listing standards.
The Companys business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows can be affected by a number of factors including but not limited to those set forth below, those set forth in our Forward Looking Statements disclosure in Item 7 and those set forth elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, any one of which could cause our actual results to vary materially from recent results or from our anticipated future results.
The Companys objective is to achieve organic sales growth at 150% of the U.S. national gross domestic product. As the Company continues to grow organically through the construction of new plants and distribution centers, it must balance the benefits against the risks of expanding its business to a level that cannot be supported through its existing customer base or entry into new markets.
The Companys growth is partially dependent on the acquisition of other businesses. The Company has a long standing acquisition program and expects to continue acquiring businesses. Typically, the Company considers acquiring businesses which can be added to existing operations (bolt-ons). Acquisitions of this type involve numerous risks, which may include potential difficulties in integrating the business into existing operations, increasing dependency on the markets served by certain businesses, and increased debt to finance the acquisitions. The Company also considers the acquisition of businesses which can operate independently of existing operations, which has an increased possibility of diverting managements attention from its core operations.
Material costs are a significant component of the Companys cost structure. The Company utilizes petroleum based products, steel and other commodities in its manufacturing processes. Raw materials account for approximately 70% of the Companys cost of goods sold. Significant increases in the price of these materials may not be recovered through sale price and could adversely affect operating results. The Company also relies on global sources of raw materials, which could be adversely impacted by slow or unfavorable shipping or trade arrangements.
The Company must balance the inventory it carries with market demand. A significant increase in demand for its products could result in additional inventory demand which could cause a short-term increase in the cost of inventory purchases. A significant decrease in demand could result in an increase of inventory on hand and as well as increased costs due to production cutbacks and inefficiencies.
The products manufactured may become obsolete due to design or technology changes. The Companys future operating success may depend upon its ability to redesign or find new applications for its current products or develop new products.
10
The Company faces increased off-shore competition. The tire and wheel and power transmission belt businesses compete against companies that leverage low cost manufacturing through facilities located outside the United States. While the Company has been price competitive, it may need to adjust its operating strategies to remain competitive against the off-shore competition.
The Company is expanding its operations into China. To compete globally against low-cost manufacturers with operations located outside the United States, the Company has expanded many of its operations into China. Conducting operations within China may cause the Company to be impacted by the political environment within China and trade relations between the United States and Chinese governments. Many of the products manufactured in China are sold in the North American market. Therefore the Company may be impacted by the cost and availability of shipping channels and amount of time required to ship the goods to the intended market. Revenues for sales of products manufactured in China for the North American market are generated predominately in U.S. Dollars. Many of the obligations incurred by these operations are settled in Chinese Renminbi or Hong Kong Dollars. Should the U.S. Dollar weaken significantly against the Renminbi or Hong Kong Dollar, the Companys results of operations could be adversely affected. The Company continues to monitor developments in China that may affect its strategy and will hedge its currency risk exposure when deemed effective and prudent.
The Company and the markets it serves can be negatively impacted by significant changes in interest rates. The Company may utilize interest rate swaps or other derivative instruments to mitigate its interest rate, currency and investment risk. Many of the markets served by Carlisle are impacted by interest rates. A significant rise in interest rates may curtail construction activities and other capital spending, as well as consumer spending, all of which could have an adverse impact on operating results.
The Company has significant concentrations in the general construction and lawn and garden markets. For the year ended December 31, 2006, approximately 43% of the Companys revenues, and 56% of its operating income were generated by the Construction Materials segment. Construction spending is affected by economic conditions, changes in interest rates, demographic and population shifts, and changes in construction spending by federal, state, and local governments. A decline in the commercial construction market could adversely affect the Companys performance.
Approximately 30% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2006, and 20% of its operating income were generated by the Companys Industrial Components segment. The businesses in this segment rely heavily on the condition of the lawn and garden market. Softening in this market could place negative pressure on the Companys results of operations.
The commercial construction market and lawn and garden market can be affected by weather. Adverse weather conditions, such as heavy or sustained rainfall, cold weather and snow can limit construction activity and reduce demand for roofing materials. Weather conditions can also be a positive factor, as demand for roofing materials may rise after harsh weather conditions due to the need for replacement materials. The lawn and garden market is also affected by extreme weather conditions, which could reduce demand for outdoor power equipment.
The Company also serves many specialty niche markets and as such, may be negatively impacted by softening in those markets. In addition to having concentrations in the construction materials and lawn and garden markets, many of the markets served by Carlisle, including the specialty trailer, refrigerated truck bodies, and foodservice products markets, are smaller, niche markets that may experience cyclicality. These market cycles can span a number of years, and while the Company benefits from the upside of these cycles, downturns can negatively affect performance.

Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Executive Overview
Carlisle Companies Incorporated (Carlisle, the Company, we or our) is a diversified manufacturing company focused on achieving profitable growth internally through new product development and product line extensions, and externally through acquisitions that complement our existing technologies, products and market channels. The Company has more than 11,000 employees. Carlisle manages its businesses under three operating groups, Construction Materials, Industrial Components and Diversified Components, and reports five financial reporting segments:
· Construction Materials: the construction materials business;
· Industrial Components: the tire and wheel business; and the power transmission belt business;
· Specialty Products: the motion control systems business;
· Transportation Products: the specialty trailer business;
· General Industry: the high-performance wire and cable business; the refrigerated truck bodies business; and the foodservice products business.
The Construction Materials and Industrial Components financial reporting segments remain unchanged compared to prior year disclosures. The Diversified Components group consists of the Specialty Products, Transportation Products and General Industry segments.
While the Company has offshore manufacturing operations, our markets are primarily in North America. Management focuses on continued year over year improvement in sales and earnings, return on capital employed and return on shareholders equity. Resources are allocated to the operating companies based on managements assessment of their ability to obtain leadership positions in the markets they serve.
Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006 were 17% higher than for the year ended December 31, 2005. Organic growth (defined as the increase in net sales excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures within the last twelve months as well as the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates), primarily within the Construction Materials segment, and to a lesser extent, the General Industry and Transportation Products segments, accounted for approximately $321.6 million or 88% of the improvement. Acquisitions in the Specialty Products segment contributed $35.7 million, or approximately 10% of the year-over-year growth. The impact of foreign exchange rates accounted for the remaining 2%. Income from continuing operations improved 33% for the current year as compared to 2005. With the exception of the Specialty Products segment, which declined year-over-year primarily as a result of higher raw material costs and integration costs associated with acquisitions, all segments reported improvement over the prior year. The largest contributor to the year-over-year growth was the Construction Materials segment.
Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2005 were 11% higher than for the year ended December 31, 2004. Organic growth within the Construction Materials segment accounted for the majority of the Companys growth. Acquisitions in the Industrial Components and Specialty Products segments accounted for approximately 14% of the year-over-year growth. Income from continuing operations improved 21% for 2005 as compared to 2004. The Construction Materials segment accounted for the majority of the income growth, followed by the Transportation Products and Specialty Products segments. Partially offsetting growth in these segments was a decline in the Industrial Components and General Industry segments. For more information relating to the Companys segments, refer to Note 19 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
In efforts to align its businesses with a focus on its core competencies, the Company has disposed of its automotive components business, and systems and equipment business. The sale of the assets of the
15
automotive components business was substantially completed as of December 31, 2005. In the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company completed the sale of its systems and equipment business.
Results from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 included the following items:

Consolidated Results of Continuing Operations
Net sales of $2.57 billion for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $365.5 million, or 17%, above 2005 net sales of $2.21 billion. Organic growth, primarily in the Construction Materials and to a lesser extent, the Transportation Products and General Industry segments, contributed approximately 88% of the improvement. Increased sales volumes, excluding the impact of acquisitions, accounted for approximately 73% of the growth. Acquisitions within the Specialty Products segment contributed $35.7 million, or approximately 10% to the year-over-year growth. The impact of changes in foreign currency rates accounted for approximately 2% of the improvement.
Cost of goods sold of $2.05 billion for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 were $280.9 million, or 16% higher than in 2005. An increase in raw material costs accounted for approximately 85% of
16
the increase, and was primarily driven by higher sales volumes, and to a lesser extent, higher raw material prices.
Gross margin (net sales less cost of goods sold expressed as a percent of net sales) of 20.3% recognized in 2006 improved slightly as compared to gross margin of 19.8% recognized in 2005. The increase was attributable to the increase in sales, which more than offset the increase in cost of goods sold. While cost of goods sold have generally increased relative to sales volume increases; price volatility in energy costs and petroleum based and commodity raw materials may cause cost of goods sold to increase disproportionately to sales volume. The Company may not be able to recover all increases in cost of goods sold through selling price increases.
Selling and administrative expenses of $242.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 were approximately 14% above $213.2 million in 2005. The increase was due primarily to an increase in variable selling expenses, the most significant being sales commissions. Such expenses typically increase or decrease with the level of sales. Also impacting 2006 was the Companys recording of $3.5 million of stock option expense. As a percent of net sales, selling and administrative expenses were approximately 9.4% and 9.7% for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Research and development expenses of $15.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 decreased from $15.4 million in 2005. As a percent of net sales, research and development expenses were 0.6% of sales in 2006, versus 0.7% of sales in 2005.
Other income, net of $10.6 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 compared to other income, net of $0.8 million for the same period in 2005. Results for the 2006 period included $7.1 million of proceeds received from legal actions initiated by the Company, $6.0 million of equity income related to the Companys 25% minority share in its European joint venture (Icopal), $5.6 million related to the curtailment of certain retiree medical plans, and $0.8 million of insurance proceeds. Offsetting these gains were expenses of $4.3 million associated with the securitization program, losses of $2.5 million related to an arbitration proceeding concerning the termination of a supply agreement, $1.3 million of lease termination costs, and $1.2 million of asset charges at a closed facility.
Included in 2005 results was a gain of $3.6 million on proceeds received from certain legal actions initiated by the Company, gains of $1.6 million recognized on the sale of certain assets, and a $1.3 million gain recognized on insurance proceeds. Also included in 2005 results were equity earnings from the Companys joint ventures of $3.6 million. Offsetting these gains was a charge of $4.0 million related to a lease arrangement for a closed facility in the General Industry segment, expenses of $4.3 million related to the Companys securitization program and foreign exchange losses recorded on subsidiary debt of $1.4 million.
Earnings before interest and income taxes (EBIT or earnings) for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $275.6 million, a 31% improvement over $210.1 million recognized in 2005. As a percent of sales, EBIT improved to 10.7% in 2006, up from 9.5% in 2005. The Construction Materials segment posted the largest improvement and accounted for the majority of the year-over-year increase. The General Industry and Transportation Products segments also reported strong growth in 2006, while results in the Industrial Components segment were slightly above the prior year. Earnings in the Specialty Products segment decreased from the prior year.
Interest expense, net of $20.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 was 28% higher than interest expense, net of $15.9 million in 2005. Interest expense in 2006 was impacted by the issuance of 6.125% $150 million ten-year notes issued in August 2006 in anticipation of the Companys 7.25% $150 million notes which matured in January 2007. The net proceeds of the August 2006 notes were used in the interim period to repay all amounts outstanding under the Companys uncommitted line of credit, to reduce the trade accounts receivable sold under the Companys receivables securitization facility and for general corporate purposes. An increase in interest rates and slightly higher average borrowings offset
17
lower capitalized interest relating to decreased capital spending as compared to the prior year. The increase in interest expense year-over-year was partially offset by higher interest income, reflecting higher short-term investments as compared to the prior year.
Income tax expense of $78.0 million in 2006 represented an effective tax rate of 30.6% and included benefits related to tax law changes and the favorable settlement of certain tax liabilities of $4.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Income tax expense of $60.5 million in 2005 represented an effective tax rate of 31.1% and included a benefit of $3.0 million related to a favorable adjustment of the Companys tax liabilities resulting from the final settlement of the 2002 and 2003 federal tax filings and certain state tax filings from 1997 to 1999.
The Company participated in the U.S. Internal Revenue Services real time audit program, Compliance Assurance Process (CAP), during 2006 and 2005. Under the CAP program, material tax issues and initiatives were disclosed to the IRS throughout the year with the objective of reaching agreement as to the proper reporting treatment. The Company received a full acceptance letter from the IRS for tax year 2005. The Company believes that this approach reduced tax-related uncertainties, enhanced transparency and reduced administrative costs. The Company expects to continue participating in the CAP program in 2007.
Income from continuing operations was $177.3 million, or $5.70 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2006, a 33% improvement over $133.7 million, or $4.30 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Consolidated Results of Discontinued Operations
Income from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $40.8 million as compared to a loss of $34.2 million in 2005. 2006 results included the gain on the sale of the systems and equipment business of $41.3 million. 2005 results included an impairment charge against fixed assets as well as a loss on the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Companys discontinued automotive components operations, which in combination totaled approximately $29.2 million before taxes. Also impacting 2005 results were after-tax reserves of $7.2 million recorded against the retained accounts receivable of the automotive components business related to the Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing of Delphi Corporation on October 8, 2005 as well as losses associated with the liquidation of the remaining assets of this business.
Income from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $38.4 million, or $1.23 per diluted share, as compared to a loss of $27.4 million, or $0.88 per diluted share in 2005. The effective tax rate for discontinued operations was 5.9% and 20.1%, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. The lower rate in 2006 was a result of the utilization of carryforward attributes and the realization of non-taxable gains. The benefit rate in 2005 resulted from the reserve of certain deferred tax assets related to loss carryforwards the Company believed may not be realized.
Net income of $215.7 million, or $6.93 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2006 was 103% higher than $106.4 million, or $3.42 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Consolidated Results of Continuing Operations
Net sales of $2.21 billion for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $210.4 million, or 11%, above 2004 net sales of $2.00 billion. Organic growth, primarily in the Construction Materials and Transportation Products segments, accounted for approximately 88% of the improvement. Acquisitions within the Industrial Components segment and Specialty Products segment contributed approximately $28.8 million, or 14% of the improvement. Increased selling prices and product mix accounted for approximately 8% of
18
the 11% improved sales performance. Increased volumes accounted for the remaining improvement of approximately 3%. The impact of changes in foreign currency rates was negligible.
Cost of goods sold of $1.77 billion for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 increased $161.3 million over $1.61 billion in 2004. Higher raw material costs accounted for approximately 83% of the increase, and were largely attributable to commodities the Company uses in its manufacturing processes whose costs can be impacted by petroleum based market conditions.
Gross margin of 19.8% recognized in 2005 was slightly higher than gross margin of 19.5% in 2004. The improvement in gross margin was largely attributable to increased selling prices and product mix. The Company implemented higher selling prices in 2005 primarily to offset increased raw material costs.
Selling and administrative expenses of $213.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 were approximately 6% above $200.6 million in 2004. The majority of the increase was attributable to variable expenses associated with increased sales, the most significant being sales commissions. Such expenses typically increase or decrease with the level of sales. As a percent of net sales, selling and administrative expenses were approximately 9.7% and 10.0% for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Research and development expenses of $15.4 million in 2005 were approximately 5% higher than in 2004, primarily relating to increased activity in the Construction Materials segment. As a percent of sales, research and development expenses in 2005 were consistent with 2004.
Other income, net of $0.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 compared to other income, net of less than one hundred thousand dollars for the same period in 2004. Included in 2005 results was a gain of $3.6 million on proceeds received from certain legal actions initiated by the Company, gains of $1.6 million recognized on the sale of certain assets, and a $1.3 million gain recognized on insurance proceeds. Also included in 2005 results were equity earnings from the Companys joint ventures of $3.6 million. Offsetting these gains was a charge of $4.0 million related to a lease arrangement for a closed facility in the General Industry segment, expenses of $4.3 million related to the Companys securitization program and foreign exchange losses recorded on subsidiary debt of $1.4 million. Results for the 2004 period included equity earnings of $3.3 million and gains on the receipt of insurance proceeds of $1.9 million. Offsetting these gains were expenses of $2.6 related to the write-off of assets associated with the spring brake business and $1.8 million of expenses related to the Companys securitization program.
Earnings before interest and income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2005 were $210.1 million, a 21% improvement over $173.7 million recognized in 2004. Most of the improvement occurred in the Construction Materials segment and to a lesser extent, the Transportation Products segment, and were partially offset by lower year-over-year earnings in the General Industry and Industrial Components segments.
Interest expense, net of $15.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 was 11% higher than interest expense, net of $14.4 million in 2004. The increase was due primarily to higher average borrowings throughout the year used to support working capital needs, capital expenditures and acquisitions. Unfavorable positions on the Companys interest rate swaps relative to 2004 were more than offset by higher capitalized interest relating to increased capital spending as compared to 2004.
Income tax expense of $60.5 million in 2005 represented an effective tax rate of 31.1% and included a benefit of $3.0 million related to a favorable adjustment of the Companys tax liabilities resulting from the final settlement of the 2002 and 2003 federal tax filings and certain state tax filings from 1997 to 1999. Income tax expense of $48.6 million in 2004 represented an effective tax rate of 30.5% and included a $3.7 million benefit related to favorable federal and state tax settlements.
Income from continuing operations, net of tax was $133.7 million, or $4.30 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2005, a 22% improvement over $110.7 million, or $3.53 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2004.

Consolidated Results of Discontinued Operations
Loss from discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $34.2 million as compared to $48.7 million in 2004. 2005 results included an impairment charge against fixed assets as well as a loss on the sale of substantially all of the assets of the Companys discontinued automotive components operations, which in combination totaled approximately $29.2 million before taxes. Also impacting results were after-tax reserves of $7.2 million recorded against the retained accounts receivable of the automotive components business related to the Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing of Delphi Corporation on October 8, 2005 as well as losses associated with the liquidation of the remaining assets of this business. Results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 included a pre-tax charge of $40.3 million related to the write-off of goodwill and $4.4 million of other assets associated with the automotive components businesses. Results for the systems and equipment group were positive in both years, reporting pre-tax earnings of $12.8 million and $11.3 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $27.4 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, as compared to $31.1 million, or $0.99 per diluted share in 2004. The effective tax rate for discontinued operations was 20.1% and 36.0%, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. The lower benefit rate in 2005 resulted from the reserve of certain deferred tax assets related to loss carryforwards the Company believed may not be realized.
Net income of $106.4 million, or $3.42 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2005 was 34% higher than $79.6 million, or $2.54 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2004.
In July 2005, the Company acquired the heavy-duty brake lining and brake shoe assets of Zhejiang Kete (Kete) for approximately $34.2 million, of which approximately $28.3 million was paid in 2005, and the remainder in 2006. Located in Hangzhou, China, Kete is included in the Specialty Products segment and its operating results have been included in this segment since the acquisition. The Company has allocated the purchase price among the assets acquired, resulting in goodwill of approximately $26.5 million and identified intangible assets of approximately $2.5 million.

2006 Compared to 2005
Net sales in the Construction Materials segment were $1.11 billion for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase of 28% over $865.7 million recognized in 2005, representing growth in all product lines. The improvement over the prior-year was attributable primarily to higher volumes of thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) membrane and insulation reflecting the expansion of the Companys geographic reach and focus on total system sales.
Segment EBIT of $170.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 represented a 29% improvement over 2005. EBIT as a percentage of sales (EBIT margin) was 15.4% in 2006 as compared to 15.2% in 2005. Current year results reflected equity income of $6.0 million related to Icopal, up from $2.5 million recognized in 2005. The favorable impact of equity earnings on EBIT margins more than offset the impact of higher raw material costs and unfavorable product mix. Results for the year ended December 31, 2006 also included gains of $5.6 million and $0.8 million related to proceeds received on legal actions initiated by the Company and insurance proceeds, respectively. Results for the 2005 year included gains of a $1.3 million recorded from the receipt of insurance proceeds, as well as $0.8 million recognized on the sale of property.
In the fourth quarter of 2005, the Construction Materials business began production at its TPO roofing manufacturing facility in Tooele, UT. With respect to its insulation operations, in 2005, the Construction Materials business announced the construction of new insulation facilities in Tooele, UT and Smithfield, PA. Manufacturing operations commenced at the Tooele, UT facility in March 2006. The Smithfield, PA facility began production in August 2006. These two new insulation facilities complement the four other insulation operations in Kingston, NY; Franklin Park, IL; Lake City, FL; and Terrell, TX. Its domestic roofing ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) manufacturing operations are located in Carlisle, PA and Greenville, IL.

Net sales and EBIT are generally higher for this segment in the second and third quarters of the year due to increased construction activity during these periods. The Company has benefited from very favorable market conditions in recent quarters, and thus performance in subsequent periods may not compare as favorably. Overall market conditions for commercial roofing continue to look favorable; however growth is not expected to be as strong as in previous periods. Uncertainties as to interest rates, raw material inflation, energy costs and weather conditions could have negative impacts on the market and the growth and margin performance of the segment.
2005 Compared to 2004
Net sales in 2005 were 20% above 2004. Sales were up in all product lines with sales of insulation products as well as EPDM and TPO membrane and accessories accounting for more than half of the increase. Higher selling prices, necessary to combat increased raw material costs, contributed to the improvement.
Segment EBIT of $131.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 represented a 40% improvement over 2004. As a percent of sales, EBIT was 15.2% in 2005 as compared to 13.1% in 2004. The improvement reflected increased sales across all product lines, which were positively impacted by increased selling prices which more than offset higher raw material costs. Included in segment earnings for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 was $2.5 million of equity income from Icopal. This compares to $2.4 million recognized in the same period of 2004. Also, included in the results for the year ended December 31, 2005 was a $1.3 million gain recorded from the receipt of insurance proceeds, as well as a gain of $0.8 million recognized on the sale of property. Results for the 2004 year included a gain of $1.9 million also related to insurance proceeds.
2006 Compared to 2005
Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $764.5 million, a 2% increase over net sales in the prior year. Net sales in the tire and wheel business were 3% above 2005 levels, primarily reflecting an increase in selling prices. Increased sales in the commercial outdoor power equipment, high-speed trailer, all terrain vehicles (ATV) and replacement markets offset lower sales in the consumer power equipment market. Sales in the power transmission belt business were flat compared to last year. Sales were higher in commercial outdoor power equipment and distribution channels, and offset reduced sales of lower-margin business.
Segment EBIT for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 was $60.4 million, representing a 9% increase as compared to 2005. Included in current year results was a curtailment gain of $5.6 million on retiree medical benefits, a $1.5 million gain resulting from proceeds received from certain legal actions initiated by the Company, and a $0.6 million gain on the sale of property. These gains offset lease termination costs of $1.3 million and asset charges related to closed facilities of $1.2 million. Results for the prior year included a gain of $3.6 million related to proceeds from legal actions. As a percent of sales, EBIT margins increased to 7.9% in the current year from 7.4% in 2005, reflecting increased selling prices and increased sales of higher-margin products.
Net sales and EBIT are generally higher in the first half of the year due to peak sales volumes in the outdoor power equipment market. Overall, demand began to show improvement in the fourth quarter of 2006 and the Company built inventories for anticipated demand in the first quarter of 2007; however, results in future periods could be negatively impacted should this trend not continue.
In February 2007, the Company purchased the assets of Meixian Tengfei Tyre Co., Ltd. (Meiyan) in Meizhou, Guandong, China for $19.6 million. Refer to Note 21 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial
22
Statements in Item 8. This acquisition provides the capability to produce steel-belted radial trailer tires. Additionally, it will provide enhanced manufacturing capabilities for larger tires for the agriculture and construction markets, which is a growth platform for the Industrial Components segment.
2005 Compared to 2004
Net sales in 2005 were 3% above 2004. Net sales in the tire and wheel business were 6% above 2004 levels, reflecting higher sales in the outdoor power equipment, ATV, and replacement markets offsetting lower sales of styled wheels. Sales price increases implemented to offset higher raw material and utility costs contributed to the improvement and helped to offset weaker demand in the lawn and garden market. Acquisitions contributed $17.5 million to the improvement over 2004. Net sales in the power transmission belt business were down 9% from 2004 reflecting reduced demand in the lawn and garden and agricultural markets. Demand in the distribution market, while down for the year, began to show signs of recovery in the fourth quarter.
Segment EBIT for 2005 was down 10% as compared to 2004. Most of this decrease was related to lower earnings in the power transmission belt business relating to continued increases in raw materials and higher energy costs as well as increased expenses related to the shut-down of its union facility in Red Wing, MN and start up costs for increased production capacity at its facilities in Fort Scott, KS and Shenzhen, China. Proceeds related to certain legal actions initiated by the Company contributed $3.6 million to earnings in 2005. Earnings were flat as compared to 2004 in the tire and wheel business. As a percent of sales, EBIT fell from 8.4% in 2004 to 7.4% in 2005, reflecting extended shutdowns and model changeovers by lawn and garden original equipment manufacturers, as well as increased raw material and energy costs, partially offset by increased selling prices.
2006 Compared to 2005
Net sales of $187.6 million for this segment in 2006 increased $35.6 million, or 23% from the prior year. Sales of off-highway products increased 45% over the prior year, reflecting the acquisition of the off-highway brake assets of ArvinMeritor, Inc. Sales of on-highway products were down slightly as compared to the prior year.
Segment EBIT fell to $11.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, a decrease of 16% from the prior year. Positive earnings from off-highway products relating to the ArvinMeritor asset acquisition were offset by manufacturing inefficiencies and charges associated with the integration of the Kete acquisition.
The braking business off-highway products are usually not subject to seasonality while the sales and earnings for the on-highway products tend to be strongest in the second quarter to coincide with increased truck and trailer maintenance typically scheduled in the spring. Certain legislation enacted by the Environmental Protection Agency which was effective January 1, 2007, resulted in increased demand in 2006 and will most likely result in a decrease in demand by OEM customers in 2007. The Company has secured and is working to identify additional replacement business to offset this possible decrease in demand. While there is no certainty as to the impact of these regulatory changes on 2007 sales and earnings, management believes they have mitigated a portion of the anticipated decline in demand. From time to time, the Company is subject to constraints in the availability of raw materials as well as to volatility in the costs of these raw materials. The brake business has experienced no significant raw material constraints in 2006; however, not all increases in raw material costs have been recovered through price increases. There is no guarantee that raw material availability and cost will not negatively impact future earnings for this segment. The Company could also be negatively impacted by cost and availability of shipping channels and the amount of time required to ship product manufactured in China.
23
2005 Compared to 2004
Net sales of $152.0 million for this segment in 2005 increased by $18.2 million, a 14% improvement over 2004. The acquisitions of two brake businesses contributed approximately $11.3 million to net sales in 2005. EBIT of $13.6 million increased $8.3 million, up from $5.2 million recognized in 2004. The improvement primarily reflected the impact of acquisitions in the fourth quarter of 2005. 2004 results also included a $2.6 million charge related to the write-off of certain assets of the spring brake business.
2006 Compared to 2005
Net sales for this segment in 2006 of $183.0 million increased by $28.5 million, an improvement of 18% over net sales of $154.5 million in 2005. The increase represented increased demand for all product lines, the largest of which were in specialized, construction and material hauling trailers. Also contributing to the improvement were increased selling prices and favorable product mix.
Segment EBIT was $30.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, up 44% from EBIT of $21.2 million in 2005. As a percent of sales, EBIT improved from 13.7% recognized in 2005 to 16.6% in 2006. The improved performance is primarily the result of higher sales.
The specialty trailer business utilizes aluminum and steel in its manufacturing process. While the Company has been able to obtain sufficient supply of these raw materials, at times the Company may be subjected to limited availability as well as price volatility, which could have a significant impact on the profitability of this business. The Company has benefited from very favorable market cycle conditions in 2006 and 2005, and thus performance in subsequent periods may not compare as favorably as in recent periods.
2005 Compared to 2004
Net sales in the Transportation Products segment grew 36% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 as compared to the prior year, reflecting significant growth across all product lines. EBIT for the segment grew $14.7 million in 2005 as compared to 2004, reflecting improved sales.
2006 Compared to 2005
Net sales of $326.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2006 were $39.2 million or 14% higher than $287.0 million in 2005. The most significant improvement occurred in the refrigerated truck bodies business, which reflected higher utilization in the current year as compared to the prior year which was negatively impacted by a labor dispute. Net sales were 15% higher in the high-performance wire and cable business and reflected record sales on increased demand for all product lines. Net sales in the foodservice business grew 5% over prior year, where growth was slowed as a result of increased fuel and energy costs during the year.
EBIT grew $13.5 million in 2006, a 76% increase over the prior year. As a percent of sales, EBIT improved to 9.5%, up from 6.2% in 2005. The improvement reflected improved sales performances in the refrigerated truck bodies and high-performance wire and cable businesses. Production efficiencies in the foodservice business also contributed to the improvement. Current year results included a $2.5 million loss related to an arbitration proceeding concerning the termination of a supply arrangement. Prior year results included a $4.0 million charge related to a lease arrangement for a closed facility. Both charges occurred in the high-performance wire and cable business.
24
Market conditions continue to look favorable for the businesses in this segment; however, uncertainties regarding raw material inflation, and other economic factors such as interest rates and energy costs could place negative pressure on growth and margin performance.
2005 Compared to 2004
Net sales for this segment in 2005 decreased 4% from the prior year. Net sales in the foodservice and high-performance wire and cable businesses both showed improved performance over 2004, but were offset by a 33% reduction in sales in the refrigerated truck bodies business partially attributable to a labor dispute that began in the first quarter of 2005 and ended in the fourth quarter.
EBIT for this segment decreased 37% in 2005 as compared to 2004. As a percent of net sales, EBIT declined to 6.2%, down from 9.3% recognized in 2004. The primary reason for the decline in earnings was a loss in the Companys refrigerated truck bodies business, which suffered from a labor dispute. Also negatively impacting 2005 results was a $4.0 million charge related to a lease arrangement for a closed facility in the high-performance wire and cable business, which overshadowed improved performance driven by higher demand.
Corporate expenses decreased slightly for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 as compared to 2005. Higher personnel costs and expenses related to the Companys adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, under which the Company began recognizing expense for the issuance of stock options negatively impacted current year results. Corporate expenses in 2005 included foreign exchange losses on subsidiary debt, which did not occur in 2006. As compared to the year ended December 31, 2004, corporate expenses were higher in 2005 primarily attributable to foreign exchange losses on subsidiary debt, an increase in the utilization of the Companys securitization program as well as the increased staffing necessary to achieve the Companys strategic objectives. As a percent of net sales, corporate expenses were 1.1%, 1.3% and 1.1% in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
Balance Sheet
Receivables of $355.4 million at December 31, 2006 represented a $192.4 million increase as compared to receivables of $163.0 million at December 31, 2005. The increase primarily resulted from lower sales of accounts receivable in the Companys securitization program, reflecting the use of the proceeds received from the issuance of 6.125% senior notes in the third quarter of 2006. Also contributing to the increase were higher receivables in the Construction Materials segment reflecting improved sales.
Inventories increased $74.1 million, up from $337.8 million at December 31, 2005 to $411.9 million at December 31, 2006. The largest increases in inventories occurred in the Construction Materials and Industrial Components segments resulting from increased capacity and planned builds of inventory levels to meet projected sales demand during the first half of 2007.
Prepaid expenses and other current assets increased by $9.3 million from $21.9 million at December 31, 2005 to $31.2 million at December 31, 2006, primarily from increased tax refunds owing to the Company.
Current assets held for sale were $0.9 million at December 31, 2006 compared to $67.6 million at December 31, 2005, reflecting the sale of the systems and equipment businesses in 2006.
Property, plant and equipment, net, increased by $30.3 million from $432.0 million at December 31, 2005 to $462.3 million at December 31, 2006 primarily as a result of increased capital spending in the Construction Materials segment related to the construction of new production facilities.
25
Goodwill, net, of $309.7 million at December 31, 2006 decreased $13.9 million from $323.6 million at December 31, 2005, primarily as a result of purchase accounting adjustments finalized in 2006, related to the 2005 braking business acquisitions.
Patents and other intangible assets, net increased $11.7 million from $7.6 million at December 31, 2005 to $19.3 million at December 31, 2006. The increase was primarily due to purchase accounting adjustments finalized in 2006, related to the 2005 braking business acquisitions.
Investments and advances to affiliates increased $14.1 million, up from $86.6 million at December 31, 2005 to $100.7 million at December 31, 2006, reflecting equity income from Icopal of $6.0 million in 2006 along with favorable foreign currency adjustments.
Non-current assets held for sale were $0.4 million at December 31, 2006 compared to $46.4 million at December 31, 2005, reflecting the sale of the systems and equipment businesses in 2006.
Short-term debt, including current maturities, at December 31, 2006 was $151.7 million as compared to $58.0 million at December 31, 2005. The increase reflects the reclassification to short-term of the Companys 7.25% senior notes, which matured in January 2007, as well as the payoff of shorter-term borrowings financed by the issuance of new 6.125% notes in the third quarter of 2006.
Accounts payable of $143.0 million at December 31, 2006 were $15.4 million higher than accounts payable at December 31, 2005 of $127.6 million primarily related to increased production activity in the Construction Materials and Industrial Components segments.
Accrued expenses of $155.9 million at the end of 2006 were $19.3 million higher than accrued expenses at December 31, 2005 of $136.6 million. The increase primarily related to liabilities retained subsequent to the sale of the systems & equipment businesses, increased rebate accruals and increased interest payable partially offset by a decrease in taxes payable.
Current liabilities associated with assets held for sale decreased from $41.8 million at the end of 2005 to $0.1 million at December 31, 2006, reflecting the sale of the systems & equipment businesses in 2006.
Long-term debt of $274.7 million at December 31, 2006 declined slightly from $282.4 million at the end of 2005. The Companys 7.25% $150.0 million senior notes were reclassified to short-term debt and were replaced with 6.125% $150.0 million senior notes.
Other long-term liabilities of $111.6 million in 2006 were $8.6 million higher than $103.0 million at December 31, 2005. The increase was primarily a result of higher net deferred tax liabilities which were partially offset by a reduction in liabilities related to pension and other post-retirement obligations.

Short-term borrowings in 2005 included borrowings used to repatriate foreign earnings for reinvestment in the U.S.. In 2005, the Company used approximately $46.0 million to finance the purchase of 680,900 shares of its common stock which was partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
2005 Compared to 2004
Net cash provided by operating activities of $209.7 million in the twelve months ended December 31, 2005 was $92.9 million higher than net cash provided by operating activities of $116.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2004. Increased earnings and a reduction in cash needed for working capital contributed to the improvement. Cash provided from operating activities in 2005 included proceeds of $17.9 million received from the Companys securitization program as compared to $53.0 million in 2004.
27

(1) Future expected interest payments are calculated based on the stated rate for fixed rate debt and the effective interest rate as of December 31, 2006 for variable rate debt.
The above table does not include $111.6 million of other long-term liabilities. Other long-term liabilities consist primarily of pension, post-retirement medical benefits, deferred income tax and warranty obligations. Due to factors such as return on plan assets, disbursements, contributions, and timing of warranty claims, it is not estimable when these will become due.
The Company has entered into long-term purchase agreements effective January 1, 2007 and expiring December 31, 2009 for certain key raw materials. Commitments are variable based on changes in commodity price indices. Based on prices at December 31, 2006, commitments under these agreements total approximately $77.5 million.
The Company maintains a $300.0 million revolving credit facility, of which $296.5 million was available at December 31, 2006. The Company also maintains a $55.0 million uncommitted line of credit, which was fully available as of December 31, 2006.
28
On July 19, 2006, the Company renewed its accounts receivable securitization facility. At December 31, 2006, the entire $150 million was available under this facility.
At December 31, 2006, letters of credit amounting to $48.5 million were outstanding, primarily to provide security under insurance arrangements and certain borrowings.
The Company has financial guarantee lines in place for certain of its operations in Asia and Europe to facilitate working capital needs, customer performance and payment and warranty obligations. At December 31, 2006, the Company had issued guarantees of $3.1 million, of which $1.4 million represents amounts recorded in current liabilities or Other long-term liabilities.
During 2005, the Company sold certain assets and liabilities of its discontinued automotive components business which was part of a series of sales. At the time of the sale, the discontinued automotive components business was party to certain equipment and real property lease contracts. As part of the sale, however, the Company was not released from its obligations under these contracts. In September 2006, the buyer filed bankruptcy. As a result, during the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company paid its obligations under the equipment lease and sold a portion of the related equipment. The lease buyout and equipment sale resulted in a loss of $2.6 million which is reflected in discontinued operations. Further, the buyer also assumed certain real estate leases in Mexico for which the Company has provided guarantees. However, these facilities were not included in the bankruptcy filing and continue to be utilized by the purchaser. The leases guaranteed by the Company expire in 2007 and 2011 and have total minimum lease payments of $2.4 million as of December 31, 2006. The Company believes that the purchaser will fulfill all obligations required by those lease agreements.
Under the Companys various debt and credit facilities, the Company is required to meet various restrictive covenants and limitations, including certain net worth, cash flow ratios and limits on outstanding debt balances held by certain subsidiaries (subsidiary debt limit). On March 2, 2006, the lender amended certain debt agreements to increase the Companys subsidiary debt limit effective for the period beginning December 23, 2005 up to December 31, 2006. As a result of those amendments to the debt agreements, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and limitations in 2006 and 2005. On August 31, 2006, the lender further amended the debt agreements to make the increased subsidiary debt limit effective through the term of the agreements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As previously discussed, the Company maintains a receivables securitization program with a financial institution whereby it sells on a continuous basis an undivided interest in certain eligible trade accounts receivable to increase the diversity of its capital funding and reduce its cost of capital. The Company has formed a wholly-owned domestic, special purpose, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary (SPV) for the sole purpose of buying and selling receivables generated by the Company. The financial position and results of operations of the SPV are consolidated with the Company. The trade accounts receivable are irrevocably transferred to the SPV without recourse, and the SPV may from time to time sell an undivided interest in these receivables of up to $150.0 million. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company recognizes the transactions under this program as a true sale, whereas creditors and rating agencies may view advances on the sale of such interests as a liability. At December 31, 2006, the Company had not received any advances under this program. The Company had received $137.9 million in advances under this program at December 31, 2005.
Capital expenditures in 2007 are expected to be approximately $75.0 million, reflecting continuing manufacturing expansions in the construction materials, transportation products and foodservices businesses. Minimum contributions to the Companys pension plans required in 2007 are expected to be
29
$16.4 million. However, the Company expects to contribute approximately $20.2 million to its pension plans in 2007 in order to qualify for transition relief under the Pension Protection Act of 2006. Contributions to these plans in 2006 totaled $13.4 million. Cash contributions to the Companys defined contribution plans were $8.6 million in 2006 and are also expected to approximate that amount in 2007.
The Company is committed to paying dividends to its Shareholders and has increased its dividend rate annually for the past 30 years. The Company also plans to pay down debt to the extent possible.
The Company announced the reactivation of its share repurchase program in August 2004. In 2005, the company repurchased 680,900 shares on the open market at a total cost of approximately $46.0 million. In the fourth quarter 2004, the Company repurchased 324,600 shares on the open market at a total cost of approximately $18.9 million. The Company did not have any repurchases in 2006. At this time, the Company has authority to repurchase an additional 370,945 shares. Additional shares may be repurchased at managements direction. The decision to repurchase shares will depend on price, availability and other corporate developments. Purchases may occur from time to time and no maximum purchase price has been set.
As previously discussed, some of the Companys segments experience higher net sales and EBIT in the first half of the year which could impact the timing of cash generated from operating activities. The Company believes that its operating cash flows, credit facilities, accounts receivable securitization program, lines of credit, and leasing programs provide adequate liquidity and capital resources to fund ongoing operations, expand existing lines of business and make strategic acquisitions. However, the ability to maintain existing credit facilities and access the capital markets can be impacted by economic conditions outside the Companys control. The Companys cost to borrow and capital market access can be impacted by debt ratings assigned by independent rating agencies, based on certain credit measures such as interest coverage, funds from operations and various leverage ratios.
Market Risk
The Company is exposed to the impact of changes in interest rates and market values of its debt instruments, changes in raw material prices and foreign currency fluctuations.
International operations are exposed to translation risk when the local currency financial statements are translated into U.S. Dollars. The Company monitors this risk, but at December 31, 2006 had no translation risk hedges in place.
The Company is also exposed to risks in the movements of foreign currency exchange rates for transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Revenues for sales of products manufactured in China for the North American market are generated predominately in U.S. Dollars. Many of the obligations incurred by these operations are settled in Chinese Renminbi or Hong Kong Dollars. Should the U.S. Dollar weaken significantly against the Renminbi or Hong Kong Dollar, the Companys results of operations could be adversely affected. The Company continues to monitor developments in China that may affect its strategy and will hedge its currency risk exposure when deemed effective and prudent. While the Company is exposed to the exchange rates of other currencies including the Canadian Dollar, British Pound, Mexican Peso and European Euro, their risk is considered minimal. Less than 6% of the Companys revenues from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2006 are in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar.
From time to time the Company may manage its interest rate exposure through the use of treasury locks and interest rate swaps to reduce volatility of cash flows, impact on earnings and to lower its cost of capital. On November 14, 2006, the Company entered into treasury lock contracts with a notional amount of $100.0 million to hedge the cash flow variability on forecasted debt interest payments associated with changes in interest rates. These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges and were deemed
30
effective at the origination date and as of December 31, 2006. The valuation of these contracts resulted in an asset of $0.7 million as of December 31, 2006.
On June 15, 2005, the Company entered into treasury lock contracts with a notional amount of $150.0 million to hedge the cash flow variability on forecasted debt interest payments associated with changes in interest rates. These contracts were designated as cash flow hedges and were deemed effective at the origination date. On August 15, 2006, the Company terminated the treasury lock contracts resulting in a gain of $5.6 million ($3.5 million, net of tax) which will be amortized to reduce interest expense until August 2016, the term of the interest payments related to the $150.0 million in notes issued on August 18, 2006. At December 31, 2006, the Company had a remaining unamortized gain of $5.4 million ($3.4 million, net of tax) which is reflected in Accumulated other comprehensive income on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In April 2005, the Company terminated certain interest rate swaps entered into during 2003 with a notional amount of $75.0 million that hedged the market risk associated with the Companys fixed rate debt. The termination of those contracts, which were designated as fair value hedges, resulted in a loss of $1.4 million, which will be amortized to interest expense until January 2007, the original termination date of the swap. At December 31, 2006, the Company had a remaining unamortized loss of $0.1 million reflected in long-term debt.
In December 2001, the Company entered into a $150.0 million notional amount interest rate swap, which was designated as a fair value hedge, to hedge a portion of the exposure associated with its fixed rate debt. This fair value hedge was deemed effective at the origination date. On July 16, 2002, the Company terminated $50.0 million notional amount of this fair value hedge resulting in a gain of $1.6 million, which was amortized to reduce interest expense through December 2006, the original termination date of the swap. On September 19, 2002, the Company terminated the remaining $100.0 million notional amount on the fair value hedge resulting in a gain of $7.3 million, which was amortized to reduce interest expense through December 2006. There were no interest rate swaps in place as of December 31, 2006.
The Companys operations use certain commodities such as plastics, carbon black, synthetic and natural rubber and steel. As such, the Companys cost of operations is subject to fluctuations as the markets for these commodities change. The Company monitors these risks, but currently has no derivative contracts in place to hedge these risks.
31
Environmental
Management recognizes the importance of the Companys responsibility with regard to environmental compliance. Programs are in place to monitor and test facilities and surrounding property and, where practical, to recycle materials. The Company has not incurred material charges relating to environmental matters in 2006 or in prior years, and none are currently anticipated.
Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale
As part of its commitment to concentrate on its core businesses, in September 2006, the Company announced plans to exit the giftware business of the foodservice products business. The sale is expected to be completed in 2007. In November of 2005 the Company announced plans to sell its systems and equipment businesses. In 2004, the Company disclosed plans to sell three businesses including the plastic components operation of the tire and wheel business, the pottery business of the foodservice products business, as well as all operations of the automotive components business. The assets of these operations have met the criteria for, and have been classified as held for sale in accordance with SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. In addition, results of operations for these businesses, and any gains or losses recognized from their sale, are reported as discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS 144.

In 2006, the Company completed the sale of the systems and equipment businesses, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $41.3 million.
33
In 2005, the Company completed the sales of the plastic components operations of the tire and wheel business and the pottery operations of the foodservice business, resulting in losses of less than $0.1 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Included in 2004 results related to the plastic components operations of the tire and wheel business were a $1.8 million charge related to a customer settlement and a $2.1 million write-down to fair value of fixed assets.
The Company sold substantially all of the assets of the automotive components business in 2005, which resulted in a loss of $29.2 million before taxes. Not included in these transactions were a small manufacturing facility and certain accounts receivable, which included amounts due from Delphi Corporation which filed for bankruptcy protection under chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code on October 8, 2005. Also included in 2005 results were charges of $7.2 million related to the reserve of receivables primarily associated with the commenced Delphi bankruptcy filing, as well as reserves against losses associated with the sale of the remaining assets. The ultimate loss will be determined upon the sales or other disposition of these remaining assets. In 2004, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $40.3 million against the goodwill of this business based on managements assessment of fair value as well as a $4.4 million write-down in a joint venture investment.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Companys significant accounting policies are more fully described in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8. Certain of the Companys accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by management in selecting the appropriate assumptions for calculating financial estimates. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These judgments are based on our historical experience, terms of existing contracts, our observation of trends in the industry, information provided by our customers and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. The Company considers certain accounting policies related to revenue recognition, estimates of reserves for receivables and inventory, deferred revenue and extended product warranty, valuation of long-lived assets, self-insurance retention, and pensions and other post-retirement plans to be critical policies due to the estimation processes involved.
Revenue Recognition. Revenues are recognized when pervasive evidence of an arrangement exists, goods have been shipped (or services have been rendered), the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection is probable, and the sales price is fixed or determinable. Provisions for discounts and rebates to the customers and other adjustments are provided for at the time of sale as a deduction to revenue.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customers current credit worthiness, as determined by the review of their credit information. Allowances for doubtful accounts are estimated based on the evaluation of potential losses related to customer receivable balances. Estimates are developed by using standard quantitative measures based on historical losses, adjusting for current economic conditions and, in some cases, evaluating specific customer accounts for risk of loss. The reserve for doubtful accounts was $10.0 million at December 31, 2006 and $11.4 million at December 31, 2005. Changes in economic conditions in specific markets in which the Company operates could have an effect on reserve balances required.
Inventories. The Company values its inventories at the lower of the actual cost to purchase and/or manufacture the inventory or the current estimated market value of the inventory. Cost of inventories includes raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead based on practical capacity. In 2006 and 2005, 56% of the cost of inventories was determined by the last-in, first-out method. The remainder was determined by the first-in, first-out method. The Company regularly reviews inventory quantities on hand
34
for excess and obsolete inventory based on estimated forecasts of product demand and production requirements for the next twelve months and issues related to specific inventory items.
Deferred Revenue and Extended Product Warranty. The Company offers extended warranty contracts on sales of certain products; the most significant being those offered on its installed roofing systems within the Construction Materials segment. The life of these warranties range from five to thirty years. All revenue for the sale of these contracts is deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contracts. Current costs of services performed under these contracts are expensed as incurred. The Company also records a loss and a corresponding reserve if the total expected costs of providing services under the contract exceed unearned revenues. The Company estimates total expected warranty costs using quantitative measures based on historical claims experience and management judgment.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets and Acquired Intangibles. In accordance with SFAS 142, the Company does not amortize goodwill. Instead, the Company performs a review of goodwill for impairment annually, or earlier, if indicators of potential impairment exist. The fair value of the assets, including goodwill balances, is determined based on discounted estimated future cash flows. The assumptions used to estimate fair value include managements best estimates of future growth rates, capital expenditures, discount rates, and market conditions. If the estimated fair value of a business unit with goodwill is determined to be less than its book value, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of all identifiable assets and liabilities of that business unit. This requires valuation of certain internally developed and unrecognized assets. Once this process is complete, the amount of goodwill impairment, if any, can be determined. These valuations can be significantly affected by estimates of future performance and discount rates over a relatively long period of time, market price valuation multiples and marketplace transactions in related markets. These estimates will likely change over time. Some of our businesses operate in cyclical industries and the valuation of these businesses can be expected to fluctuate as a result of their cyclicality. Any resulting impairment loss could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Self Insurance Retention. The Company maintains self-retained liabilities for workers compensation, medical and dental, general liability, property and product liability claims up to applicable retention limits. The Company estimates these retention liabilities utilizing actuarial methods and loss development factors. The Companys historical loss experience is considered in the calculation. The Company is insured for losses in excess of these limits.
Pensions and Other Post-Retirement Plans. The Company maintains defined benefit retirement plans for the majority of its employees. The annual net periodic expense and benefit obligations related to these plans are determined on an actuarial basis. This determination requires assumptions to be made concerning the discount rate, long-term return on plan assets and increases to compensation levels. These assumptions are reviewed periodically by management in consultation with its independent actuary. Changes in the assumptions to reflect actual experience can result in a change in the net periodic expense and accrued benefit obligations. The defined benefit plans assets consist primarily of publicly-listed common stocks and corporate bonds, and the market value of these assets is determined under the fair value method. At December 31, 2006, plan assets were allocated 62% in equity securities, 33% in fixed income securities, 4% in alternative investments and 1% in cash. The Company uses a September 30 measurement date for valuation purposes. Deviations of actual results as compared to expected results are recognized over a five-year period. The expected rate of return on plan assets was 8.5% for the 2006 valuation. While the Company believes 8.5% is a reasonable expectation based on the plan assets mix of fixed income and equity investments, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in the assumptions used may materially affect the pension obligations and future expense. The effects of a 0.25% increase or decrease in the expected rate of return would change the Companys estimated 2007 pension expense by less than $0.3 million. The assumed discount rate was 5.85% for the 2006 valuation. The effects of a 0.25% increase or decrease in the assumed discount rate would change the Companys
35
total pension benefit obligation by less than $5.6 million. The Company has used an assumed rate of compensation increase of 4.29% for the 2006 valuation. This rate is not expected to change in the foreseeable future and is slightly higher than the Companys actual rate of compensation increase over the past few years.
The Company also has a limited number of unfunded post-retirement benefit programs that provide certain retirees with medical and prescription drug coverage. The annual net periodic expense and benefit obligations of these programs are also determined on an actuarial basis and are subject to assumptions on the discount rate and increases in compensation levels. The Company uses a September 30 measurement date for valuation purposes. The discount rate used for the 2006 valuation was 5.85%. The effects of a 1% increase or decrease in assumed health care cost trend rates would not be material. Like the defined benefit retirement plans, these plans assumptions are reviewed periodically by management in consultation with its independent actuary. Changes in the assumptions can result in a change in the net periodic expense and accrued benefit obligations.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) (SFAS 123(R)), Share Based Payment. This statement is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) requires the expensing of all share-based payments, including the issuance of stock options, based on the fair value of the award at the grant date. Additionally, the new standard requires the use of a fair-value measurement methodology which takes into consideration the special nature of its awards, including early exercise provisions. The new standard also specifies that excess income tax benefits related to share-based compensation expense recognized directly in equity are considered financing rather than operating cash flow activities.
The Company adopted this standard using the modified prospective method as provided by SFAS 123(R). This method requires the expensing of share-based awards issued on or after the date of adoption as well as the unvested portion of awards issued before the date of adoption (see Note 11). The Company is using the Black-Scholes method for measuring the fair value of new awards.
In January 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 151 (SFAS 151), Inventory CostsAn Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. This statement clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Among other provisions, the new rule requires that items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of so abnormal as stated in ARB No. 43. Additionally, SFAS 151 requires that the allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. Adoption of this standard had no material impact on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.
In January 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 153 (SFAS 153), Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assetsan amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. SFAS 153 eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets in paragraph 21(b) of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. SFAS 153 specifies that a nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. Adoption of this standard had no material impact on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.
In January 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 154 (SFAS 154), Accounting Changes and Error Correctionsa replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. SFAS 154 changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This statement
36
applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods financial statements of changes in accounting principle unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. Retrospective application is defined by the statement as the application of a different accounting principle to prior accounting periods as if that principle had always been used or as the adjustment of previously issued financial statements to reflect a change in the reporting entity. This statement also requires that a change in the depreciation, amortization or depletion method for long-lived, nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate affected by a change in accounting principle. Adoption of this standard had no material impact on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158 (SFAS 158), Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). SFAS 158 requires plan sponsors of defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans (collectively, postretirement benefit plans) to recognize the funded status of their postretirement plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the fiscal year-end statement of financial position, and provide additional disclosures. On December 31, 2006, the Company adopted the recognition and disclosure provisions of SFAS 158. The effect of adopting SFAS 158 on the Companys financial condition at December 31, 2006 has been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. SFAS 158 did not have an effect on the Companys consolidated financial condition at December 2005 or 2004. The Company has not yet determined the impact of the change in measurement date from September 30 to December 31 for post-retirement benefit plans. See Retirement Plans Note 13 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 for further discussion of the effect of adopting SFAS 158 on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In February 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 155 (SFAS 155), Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and 140. SFAS 155 permits hybrid financial instruments that have embedded derivatives to be valued as a whole, eliminating the need to bifurcate the derivative from its host, as previously required under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedge Accounting (SFAS 133). SFAS 155 also amends SFAS 133 by establishing a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to determine whether they are free standing derivatives or whether they contain embedded derivatives that require bifurcation. SFAS 155 is effective for all hybrid financial instruments acquired or issued by the Company on or after January 1, 2007. Adoption of SFAS 155 is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FIN No. 48 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. This interpretation clarifies the accounting and financial statement reporting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is required to be adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2007. The Company has not yet completed its analysis of the effects of this interpretation.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 (SFAS 157), Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet completed its analysis of the effects of this standard.

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108). SAB 108 expresses the staffs views regarding the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. Based on SAB 108, prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying misstatements in current year financial statements. SAB 108 provides approaches to be used to quantify any misstatements. It will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2006. Adoption of SAB 108 is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1Summary of Accounting Policies
Carlisle Companies Incorporated, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and their divisions or subsidiaries, referred to herein as the Company or Carlisle, manufacture and distribute a wide variety of products across a broad range of industries, including, among others, roofing, construction, trucking, foodservice, industrial equipment, lawn and garden and aircraft manufacturing. The Company markets its products as a component supplier to original equipment manufacturers, distributors, as well as directly to end-users.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Investments in affiliates, where the Company does not have control but exercises significant influence, are accounted for under the equity method. Equity income related to such investments is recorded in Other income, net on the Companys Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income. All material intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The Companys fiscal year-end is December 31, however the Companys European roofing joint venture (Icopal) reports on a one-month lag.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (United States or U.S.) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Debt securities with a maturity of three months or less when acquired are cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates market value.
Revenues are recognized when pervasive evidence of an arrangement exists, goods have been shipped (or services have been rendered), the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection is probable, and the sales price is fixed or determinable.
Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers and other adjustments are provided for at the time of sale as a deduction to revenue.
The Company accounts for shipping and handling costs in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 00-10, Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs. Costs incurred to physically transfer product to customer locations are recorded as a component of cost of good sold. Charges passed on to customers are recorded into revenue.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Carlisle performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customers current credit worthiness, as determined by the review of their credit
43
information. Allowances for doubtful accounts are estimated based on the evaluation of potential losses related to customer receivable balances. Estimates are developed by using standard quantitative measures based on historical losses, adjusting for current economic conditions and, in some cases, evaluating specific customer accounts for risk of loss. Changes in economic conditions in specific markets in which the Company operates could have an effect on reserve balances required.
Inventories for continuing and discontinued operations are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost of inventories includes raw materials, direct labor and manufacturing overhead based on practical capacity. In both 2006 and 2005, 56% of the cost of inventories was determined by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method. The remainder was determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
Deferred Revenue and Extended Product Warranty
The Company offers extended warranty contracts on sales of certain products; the most significant being those offered on its installed roofing systems within the Construction Materials segment. The life of these warranties range from five to thirty years. All revenue for the sale of these contracts is deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the contracts. Current costs of services performed under these contracts are expensed as incurred. The Company also records a loss and a corresponding reserve if the total expected costs of providing services under the contract exceed unearned revenues. The Company estimates total expected warranty costs using standard quantitative measures based on historical claims experience and management judgment. See Note 16.
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Costs allocated to property, plant and equipment of acquired companies are based on estimated fair market value at the date of acquisition. Depreciation is principally computed on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation includes the amortization of capital leases. Asset lives are 20 to 40 years for buildings, 5 to 15 years for machinery and equipment and 3 to 10 years for leasehold improvements.
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, the Company performs impairment tests on its long-lived assets, excluding goodwill and other intangible assets, when circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If required, recoverability is tested by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows of the asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value is not recoverable, the asset or asset group is written down to market value.
The Company maintains self-retained liabilities for workers compensation, medical and dental, general liability, property and product liability claims up to applicable retention limits. The Company estimates these retention liabilities utilizing actuarial methods and loss development factors. The Companys historical loss experience is considered in the calculation. The Company is insured for losses in excess of these limits. See Note 16.
Patents, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for patents, goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with SFAS 142 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Patents and other intangible assets are recorded at cost. Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not subject to amortization, but are tested at least annually for impairment. The Company principally uses discounted cash flow models in evaluating
44
goodwill, but may use other measures when appropriate. Costs allocated to patents and other intangible assets of acquired companies are based on estimated fair market value at the date of acquisition. See Note 5Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
Pension and Other Post Retirement Benefits
Carlisle maintains defined benefit retirement plans for the majority of its employees. Benefits are based on years of service and employees compensation prior to retirement. The annual net periodic expense and benefit obligations of these programs are determined on an actuarial basis. The cost of this program is being funded currently.
Carlisle also has a limited number of unfunded post-retirement benefit programs that provide certain retirees with medical and prescription drug coverage. The annual net periodic expense and benefit obligations of these programs are also determined on an actuarial basis.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments under SFAS 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, as amended, which requires that all derivatives be recorded at fair value on the balance sheet and establishes criteria for designation and effectiveness of derivative transactions for which hedge accounting is applied. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. If a fair value hedge is terminated before maturity, the adjusted carrying amount of the hedged asset or liability remains as a component of the carrying amount of that asset or liability until it is disposed. If the hedged item is an interest-bearing financial instrument, the adjusted carrying amount is amortized into earnings over the remaining life of the instrument. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income and are recognized in the income statement when the hedged item affects earnings. Ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings.
The Company is subject to market risk from exposures to changes in interest rates due to its financing, investing and cash management activities. The Company uses treasury lock contracts, interest rate swap agreements, or other derivative instruments, from time to time, to manage the interest rate risk of its floating and fixed rate debt portfolio. The Company, on a periodic basis, assesses the initial and ongoing effectiveness of its hedging relationships.
The Companys international operations are exposed to translation risk when the local currency financial statements are translated into U.S. Dollars. Carlisle monitors this risk, but at December 31, 2006, had no contracts in place for hedging net investment risk.
Currency valuation risk is considered minimal. At December 31, 2006, the Company had no material currency hedges in place. Less than 6% of the Companys 2006 revenues are in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of the differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. These balances are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which such temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. If a portion or all of a deferred tax asset is not expected to be realized, a valuation allowance is recognized.

Employee Stock-based Compensation Arrangements
Stock Options
The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) as of January 1, 2006, using the modified prospective approach, and as such, accounts for awards of stock-based compensation based on the fair-value method. Compensation expense for stock options granted is recognized using the accelerated method under SFAS 123(R).
Prior to 2006, the Company accounted for awards of stock-based employee compensation based on the intrinsic value method under the Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25. As such, no stock-based compensation is recorded in the determination of Net income, as options granted have an option price equal to the market price of the underlying stock on the grant date. The following table illustrates the effect on Net income and Earnings per share (EPS) had the Company applied the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation under SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.

The pro forma effect includes only the vested portion of options granted in and after 1995. Compensation cost for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, was estimated using the Black-Scholes model, with the following assumptions:

The expected life of options is based on the assumption that all outstanding options will be exercised at the midpoint of the valuation date and the option expiration date. The expected volatility is based on historical volatility as well as implied volatility of the Companys publicly traded options. The risk free interest rate is based on rates of U.S. Treasury issues with a remaining life equal to the expected life of the option. The expected dividend yield is based on the projected annual dividend payment per share, divided by the stock price at the date of grant.
Restricted Stock
Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period based on the closing stock prices on the grant date of the restricted stock. As compensation expense is recognized, Additional paid-in capital is increased in shareholders equity. The restricted stock receives the same dividend as common shares outstanding.
46
Basic earnings per share excludes the dilutive effects of potentially dilutive options, warrants and convertible securities. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if options, warrants or other convertible securities were exercised. Restricted shares are considered options for purposes of calculating earnings per share. Differences between basic and diluted earnings per share of the Company are the effect of dilutive stock options and restricted shares. Stock options to purchase approximately 1,500 shares in 2006 and 9,000 shares in 2005 were excluded from the calculation of potentially dilutive options as such options had exercise prices in excess of the average market value of the Companys common stock during these periods. No such exclusion was made in 2004 as all options had exercise prices below the average market value of the Companys stock.
The Company has determined that the local currency is the functional currency for its subsidiaries outside the United States. Assets and liabilities of these operations are translated at the exchange rate in effect at each year-end. Income statement accounts are translated at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments arising from the use of differing exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of shareholders equity in Accumulated other comprehensive income. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in Other income, net.
Certain reclassifications have been made to 2005 and 2004 information to conform to the current years presentation.
The Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income have been restated to reflect the effects of discontinued operations. In addition, the Consolidated Balance Sheets have been restated to show separately assets held for sale and the liabilities associated with those assets. Segment information presented in Note 19 has also been restated from prior years presentation to reflect the Companys current segment structure, discontinued operations and assets held for sale. See Notes 17 and 19 for more detail regarding discontinued operations and the Companys segment structure, respectively.
In 2006, the Company combined the operating, investing and financing portions of the cash flows attributable to its discontinued operations with the cash flows attributable to its continuing operations.
New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted
In January 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 123(R) (SFAS 123(R)), Share Based Payment. This statement is a revision of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. SFAS 123(R) requires the expensing of all share-based payments, including the issuance of stock options, based on the fair value of the award at the grant date. Additionally, the new standard requires the use of a fair-value measurement methodology which takes into consideration the special nature of its awards, including early exercise provisions. The new standard also specifies that excess income tax benefits related to share-based compensation expense recognized directly in equity are considered financing rather than operating cash flow activities.
The Company adopted this standard using the modified prospective method as provided by SFAS 123(R). This method requires the expensing of share-based awards issued on or after the date of adoption as well as the unvested portion of awards issued before the date of adoption (see Note 11). The Company is using the Black-Scholes method for measuring the fair value of new awards.
47
In January 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 151 (SFAS 151), Inventory CostsAn Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4. This statement clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Among other provisions, the new rule requires that items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs be recognized as current-period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of so abnormal as stated in ARB No. 43. Additionally, SFAS 151 requires that the allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. Adoption of this standard had no material impact on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.
In January 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 153 (SFAS 153), Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assetsan amendment of APB Opinion No. 29. SFAS 153 eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets in paragraph 21(b) of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. SFAS 153 specifies that a nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. Adoption of this standard had no material impact on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.
In January 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 154 (SFAS 154), Accounting Changes and Error Correctionsa replacement of APB Opinion No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3. SFAS 154 changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods financial statements of changes in accounting principle unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. Retrospective application is defined by the statement as the application of a different accounting principle to prior accounting periods as if that principle had always been used or as the adjustment of previously issued financial statements to reflect a change in the reporting entity. This statement also requires that a change in the depreciation, amortization or depletion method for long-lived, nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate affected by a change in accounting principle. Adoption of this standard had no material impact on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158 (SFAS 158), Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R). SFAS 158 requires plan sponsors of defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans (collectively, postretirement benefit plans) to recognize the funded status of their postretirement plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the fiscal year-end statement of financial position, and provide additional disclosures. On December 31, 2006, the Company adopted the recognition and disclosure provisions of SFAS 158. The effect of adopting SFAS 158 on the Companys financial condition at December 31, 2006 has been included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. SFAS 158 did not have an effect on the Companys consolidated financial condition at December 2005 or 2004. The Company has not yet determined the impact of the change in measurement date for post-retirement benefit plans. See Note 13 for further discussion of the effect of adopting SFAS 158 on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
In February 2006, FASB issued SFAS No. 155 (SFAS 155), Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and 140. SFAS 155 permits hybrid financial instruments that have embedded derivatives to be valued as a whole, eliminating the need to
48
bifurcate the derivative from its host, as previously required under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedge Accounting (SFAS 133). SFAS 155 also amends SFAS 133 by establishing a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to determine whether they are free standing derivatives or whether they contain embedded derivatives that require bifurcation. SFAS 155 is effective for all hybrid financial instruments acquired or issued by the Company on or after January 1, 2007. Adoption of SFAS 155 is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.
In June 2006, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48) Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxesan interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. This interpretation clarifies the accounting and financial statement reporting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is required to be adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2007. The Company has not yet completed its analysis of the effects of this interpretation.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 (SFAS 157), Fair Value Measurements. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. It will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet completed its analysis of the effects of this standard.
In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 (SAB 108). SAB 108 expresses the staffs views regarding the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. Based on SAB 108, prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying misstatements in current year financial statements. SAB 108 provides approaches to be used to quantify any misstatements. It will be effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2006. Adoption of SAB 108 is not expected to have a material effect on the Companys statement of earnings or financial position.
The Company maintains an agreement (the Receivables Facility) with a financial institution whereby it sells on a continuous basis an undivided interest in certain eligible trade accounts receivable. Pursuant to the Receivables Facility, the Company formed a wholly-owned, special purpose, bankruptcy-remote subsidiary (SPV). The financial position and results of operations of the SPV are consolidated with the Company. The SPV was formed for the sole purpose of buying and selling receivables generated by the Company. Under the Receivables Facility, the Company, irrevocably and without recourse, transfers all applicable trade accounts receivables to the SPV. The SPV, in turn, has sold and, subject to certain conditions, may from time to time sell an undivided interest in these receivables and is permitted to receive advances of up to $150.0 million from the conduit administered by an independent financial institution for the sale of such an undivided interest.
The Company accounts for its transfers of receivables to the SPV, together with the SPVs sale of undivided interests in the SPVs receivables to the conduit, as sales under SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities. The interest rate paid to the conduit on amounts outstanding under the Receivables Facility is equal to the conduits pooled commercial paper rate, which was 5.35% and 4.26% at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, respectively. The Companys loss on the sales of these receivables is reported in Other income, net, and amounted to $4.3 million during both 2006 and 2005 and $1.8 million in 2004.
At December 31, 2006, the outstanding balance of receivables serviced by the SPV was $242.3 million compared to $228.8 million at December 31, 2005 and $250.5 million at December 31, 2004. At December 31, 2006, the SPV had not sold any undivided interest to the conduit. The SPV sold $137.9
49
million of undivided interest to the conduit at December 31, 2005, and $120.0 million at December 31, 2004. The Companys retained interest in the SPVs receivables is classified in trade accounts receivable in the Companys consolidated financial statements at its relative fair value and amounted to $242.3 million at December 31, 2006 compared to $91.1 million at December 31, 2005 and $129.8 million at December 31, 2004. This retained interest is subordinate to, and provides credit enhancement for, the conduits ownership interest in the SPVs receivables, and is available to the conduit to pay any fees or expenses due to the conduit, and to absorb all credit losses incurred on any of the SPVs receivables.

On August 18, 2006, the Company issued $150 million in ten-year notes at an interest rate of 6.125% in anticipation of the Companys 7.25% $150 million notes maturing January 15, 2007. The net proceeds of the August 2006 notes were used in the interim period to repay all amounts outstanding under the Companys uncommitted line of credit, to reduce the trade accounts receivable sold under the Companys receivables facility and for general corporate purposes. The $150 million notes that mature on January 15, 2007, are included in Short-term debt.
On June 9, 2005, the Company replaced its three-year $250.0 million syndicated revolving credit facility with a five-year $300.0 million revolving credit facility (the 2005 Facility). At December 31, 2006, the Company had $296.5 million available under this facility. The 2005 Facility provides for grid-based interest pricing based on the credit rating of the Companys senior unsecured bank or other unsecured senior debt and the Companys utilization of the 2005 Facility. The average interest rate on the 2005 Facility for 2006 was 5.22%.
The Company also maintains a $55 million uncommitted line of credit, which was fully available as of December 31, 2006. In addition, at December 31, 2006, the entire $150 million was available under the Companys accounts receivable securitization facility.
At December 31, 2006, letters of credit amounting to $48.5 million were outstanding primarily to provide security under insurance arrangements and certain borrowings.
Under the Companys various debt and credit facilities, the Company is required to meet various restrictive covenants and limitations, including certain net worth, cash flow ratios and limits on outstanding debt balances held by certain subsidiaries (subsidiary debt limit). On March 2, 2006, the lender amended certain debt agreements to increase the Companys subsidiary debt limit effective for the period beginning December 23, 2005 up to December 31, 2006. As a result of those amendments to the debt agreements, the Company was in compliance with all covenants and limitations in 2006 and 2005. On August 31, 2006, the lender further amended the debt agreements to make the increased subsidiary debt limit effective through the term of the agreements.
The industrial development and revenue bonds are collateralized by letters of credit, Company guarantees and/or by the facilities and equipment acquired through the proceeds of the related bond issuances. The weighted average interest rates on the revenue bonds for 2006 and 2005 were 4.32% and
53
3.03%, respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of its industrial development and revenue bonds approximates their carrying value.
Other borrowings for 2006 and 2005 include capital lease obligations of $5.7 million and $6.0 million, respectively for the funding of production facility expansions. Interest rates on these borrowings ranged from 4.89% to 13.28% in 2006.
Cash payments for interest were $20.6 million in 2006, $21.5 million in 2005, and $18.8 million in 2004. Interest expense, net is shown net of interest income of $3.5 million in 2006, $1.5 million in 2005, and $1.9 million in 2004.
The aggregate amount of short-term and long-term debt maturing in each of the next five years is approximately $151.7 million in 2007, $112.7 million in 2008, $0 in 2009, 2010, and 2011, and $163.0 million thereafter.
The fair value of the Companys senior notes is based on current year yield rates plus the Companys estimated credit spread available for financings with similar terms and maturities. As of December 31, 2006, the fair value of the Companys 6.70% senior notes is approximately $101.7 million. The fair value of the Companys 7.25% senior notes is equal to the carrying value of $150.0 million at December 31, 2006. The fair value of the Companys 6.125% senior notes is approximately $152.9 million at December 31, 2006.
Note 8Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company is exposed to the impact of changes in interest rates and market values of its debt instruments, changes in raw material prices and foreign currency fluctuations. Management of interest rate exposure includes consideration of the use of treasury lock contracts and interest rate swaps to reduce the volatility of cash flows, the impact on earnings, and to lower its cost of capital.
On November 14, 2006, the Company entered into treasury lock contracts with a notional amount of $100.0 million to hedge the cash flow variability on forecasted debt interest payments associated with changes in interest rates. These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges and were deemed effective at the origination date and as of December 31, 2006. The valuation of these contracts resulted in an asset of $0.7 million as of December 31, 2006.
On June 15, 2005, the Company entered into treasury lock contracts with a notional amount of $150.0 million to hedge the cash flow variability on forecasted debt interest payments associated with changes in interest rates. These contracts were designated as cash flow hedges and were deemed effective at the origination date. On August 15, 2006, the Company terminated the treasury lock contracts resulting in a gain of $5.6 million ($3.5 million, net of tax), which will be amortized to reduce interest expense until August 2016, the term of the interest payments related to the $150 million in notes issued on August 18, 2006. At December 31, 2006, the Company had a remaining unamortized gain of $5.4 million ($3.4 million, net of tax) which is reflected in Accumulated other comprehensive income on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets.
In April 2005, the Company terminated certain interest rate swaps entered into on April 11, 2003, with a notional amount of $75.0 million that hedged the market risk associated with the Companys 7.25% senior notes. The termination of those contracts, which were designated as fair value hedges, resulted in a loss of $1.4 million, which will be amortized to interest expense until January 2007, the original termination date of the swap. At December 31, 2006, the Company had a remaining unamortized loss of $0.1 million reflected in long-term debt.
In December 2001, the Company entered into a $150.0 million notional amount interest rate swap, which was designated as a fair value hedge, to hedge a portion of the exposure associated with its fixed rate
54
debt. This fair value hedge was deemed effective at the origination date. On July 16, 2002, the Company terminated $50.0 million notional amount of this fair value hedge resulting in a gain of $1.6 million, which was amortized to reduce interest expense through December 2006, the original termination date of the swap. On September 19, 2002, the Company terminated the remaining $100.0 million notional amount on the fair value hedge resulting in a gain of $7.3 million, which was amortized to reduce interest expense through December 2006.
On April 27, 2006, the Company executed a currency hedge with a total notional amount of $5.9 million to hedge the fair value risk associated with fluctuations in the foreign exchange rate on the final settlement amount due related to the July 2005 acquisition of the heavy-duty brake lining and brake shoe assets of Zhejiang Kete. On July 19, 2006 the Company terminated the fair value hedge resulting in an immaterial loss.
On October 10, 2006, the Company terminated a currency hedge which was executed on July 21, 2005, with a notional amount of $2.5 million to hedge the Companys fair value risk associated with fluctuations in the foreign exchange rate on certain receivables denominated in Euros. The termination of this contract resulted in an immaterial gain.
Note 9Acquisitions
On October 7, 2005, the Company acquired the off-highway brake assets of ArvinMeritor, Inc. for approximately $39.0 million. Operating results for this operation since the acquisition date are included in the Specialty Products segment. The acquisition includes manufacturing assets and inventory from the ArvinMeritor facilities in York, SC; Lexington, KY and Cwmbran, South Wales, U.K, which have been subsequently transferred to the Companys off-highway braking systems and specialty friction operations. The acquisition resulted in goodwill of approximately $14.3 million and identified intangible assets of $13.0 million with a weighted-average life of 6.6 years. Identified intangible assets consist primarily of customer relationships valued at $12.1 million, with a weighted-average life of 6.5 years, and patents valued at $0.9 million with a weighted-average life of 7.3 years. The goodwill from this acquisition is deductible for tax purposes.
In July 2005, the Company acquired the heavy-duty brake lining and brake shoe assets of Zhejiang Kete (Kete) located in Hangzhou, China, for approximately $34.2 million, resulting in goodwill of $26.5 million and identified intangible assets of $2.5 million, with a weighted-average life of 5.1 years. Identified intangible assets consist primarily of customer relationships and distribution agreements valued at $1.5 million with a weighted-average life of 5 years, formulas valued at $0.7 million with a weighted-average life of 5.2 years, and other intangible assets valued at $0.3 million with a weighted-average life of 5 years. Operating results for this operation since the acquisition date are included in the Specialty Products segment. The goodwill from this acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes.
Note 10Shareholders Equity
The Company has a Shareholders Rights Agreement that is designed to protect shareholder investment values. A dividend distribution of one Preferred Stock Purchase Right (the Rights) for each outstanding share of the Companys common stock was declared, payable to shareholders of record on March 3, 1989. The Rights are attached to the issued and outstanding shares of the Companys common stock and will become exercisable under certain circumstances, including the acquisition of 25% of the Companys common stock, or 40% of the voting power, in which case all rights holders except the acquirer may purchase the Companys common stock at a 50% discount.
If the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination, and the Rights have not been redeemed, rights holders may purchase the acquirers shares at a 50% discount. On May 26, 2006, the
55
Company amended the Shareholders Rights Agreement to, among other things, extend the term of the Rights until May 25, 2016.
Common shareholders of record on May 30, 1986 are entitled to five votes per share. Common stock acquired subsequent to that date entitles the holder to one vote per share until held four years, after which time the holder is entitled to five votes per share.
Note 11Employee and Non-Employee Stock Options & Incentive Plan
The Company maintains an Executive Incentive Program (the Program) for executives and certain other employees of the Company and its operating divisions and subsidiaries. On April 20, 2004, the Program was amended by shareholder approval to allow for awards of stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and units or other awards based on Company stock. Shares issued under these plans are issued from Treasury. At December 31, 2006, 2,030,170 shares were available for grant under this plan; however, only 1,986,390 of this amount were available for the issuance of restricted and performance shares. The Company also maintains a restricted stock and stock option plan for its non-employee directors. At December 31, 2006, 70,000 and 196,000 shares were available for grant under these plans, respectively. With the exception of certain awards issued December 1, 1999 (the December 1999 Grant) and certain awards for which vesting was accelerated on September 7, 2005, options issued under both these plans vest one-third upon grant, one-third on the first anniversary of grant and the remaining one-third on the second anniversary of grant. Vesting for the December 1999 Grant was as follows: 10% on March 1, 2001; 30% on March 1, 2002; 60% on March 1, 2003; and 100% on March 1, 2004. All options, including the December 1999 Grant, have a maximum term life of 10 years.
Compensation expense related to the adoption of SFAS 123(R) and stock options granted was $3.5 million before tax, or $2.4 million after tax ($0.08 per share, basic and diluted) for the year ended December 31, 2006. Under SFAS 123(R), excess income tax benefits related to share-based compensation expense that must be recognized directly in equity are considered financing rather than operating cash flow activities. The amount of financing cash flows for these benefits was $3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2006. There was no stock-based compensation expense related to stock options in 2005 and 2004 because the intrinsic value method was used in accordance with APB 25 to account for stock-based awards. Unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options of $0.9 million at December 31, 2006 is to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.1 years.
On September 7, 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Companys Board of Directors approved the immediate vesting of 115,533 options originally granted on February 2, 2005 and May 4, 2005. At the time of the vesting, the market value of the Company stock was less than the exercise price of the options.
Restricted shares awarded under the Program are generally released to the recipient after a period of three years. At December 31, 2006, under the Companys restricted stock plan, 115,170 non-vested shares were outstanding. The number and weighted average grant-date fair value of restricted shares issued in each of the last three years was as follows: in 2006, 47,720 shares were issued at a weighted average fair value of $69.61; in 2005, 49,825 shares were issued at a weighted average fair value of $64.38; and in 2004, 33,110 shares were issued at a weighted average fair value of $57.07. Compensation expense related to restricted stock awards of $3.3 million, $2.1 million and $1.0 million were recognized for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock awards of $3.4 million at December 31, 2006 is to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years.

Note 12Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The change in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) has no impact on Net income but is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets through adjustments to Shareholders equity. Other comprehensive income (loss) is derived from adjustments to reflect the minimum post-retirement benefit liability, foreign currency translation adjustments, and unrealized gains (losses) on hedging activities.

Carlisle maintains defined benefit retirement plans for the majority of its employees. Benefits are based primarily on years of service and earnings of the employee. On December 31, 2006, the Company adopted the recognition and disclosure provisions of SFAS 158. SFAS 158 requires the Company to recognize the funded status of its defined benefit pension and post-retirement medical benefit plans in the December 31, 2006 Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Comprehensive Income, with a corresponding adjustment to Accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. The adjustment to Accumulated other comprehensive income at adoption represents the net unrecognized actuarial losses, unrecognized prior service costs, and unrecognized transition obligation remaining from the initial adoption of SFAS 87, all of which were previously netted against the plans funded status in the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets pursuant to the provisions of SFAS 87. These amounts will be subsequently recognized as net periodic pension costs pursuant to the Companys historical accounting policy for amortizing such amounts. Further, actuarial gains and losses that arise in subsequent periods and are not recognized as net periodic pension costs in the same periods will be recognized as a component of Other comprehensive income. These amounts will be subsequently recognized as a component of net periodic pension costs on the same basis as the amounts recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income prior to the adoption of SFAS 158.
The incremental effects of adopting the provisions of SFAS 158 on the Companys Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2006, are presented in the following table. The adoption of SFAS 158 had no effect on the Companys Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the years ended December 31, 2006, or for any period presented, and will not affect the Companys operating results in future periods. Had the Company not been required to adopt SFAS 158 at December 31, 2006, it would have recognized an additional minimum liability pursuant to the provisions of SFAS 87. The effect of recognizing the additional minimum liability is included in the table below in the column labeled Prior to Adopting SFAS 158.
The following disclosures include both continuing and discontinued operations.
The effect of adopting SFAS 158 on defined benefit pension plans is represented in the following table:

The Company employs a total return investment approach whereby a mix of equities and fixed income investments are used to maximize the long-term return of plan assets for a prudent level of risk. Periodically the Company will modify the target asset allocation to enhance total return. The established target allocation is 60% equity securities, 35% fixed income securities and 5% alternative investments. Risk tolerance is established through careful consideration of plan liabilities, plan funded status, and corporate financial condition. The investment portfolio contains a diversified blend of equity and fixed-income investments. Equity investments are diversified across U.S. and international stocks, as well as growth, value, and large and small capitalizations. Investment risk is measured and monitored on an ongoing basis through investment portfolio reviews, annual liability measures and asset/liability studies.

The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit pension plans was $168.0 million and $169.6 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
Minimum contributions to the Companys pension plans in 2007 are expected to be $16.4 million. However, the Company expects to contribute approximately $20.2 million to its pension plans in 2007 in order to qualify for transition relief under the Pension Protection Act of 2006.

The curtailment income of $0.6 million in 2006 was due to the Companys sale of the systems and equipment businesses. The 2005 curtailment gain of $0.9 million was due to the Companys sale of its automotive components business which affected a portion of the Core Plan, and the Canton and Crestline plans in full. The 2004 curtailment charge of $0.4 million was due to the Companys amendment of the Director Retirement Plan.

Carlisle used an assumed discount rate of 5.85% for the 2006 valuation. The Company changed its assumption for the 2006 and 2005 valuation by basing the discount rate on a yield curve which provides better matching of the expected future retirement plan cash flows with projected yields.

The Company considers several factors in determining the long-term rate of return for plan assets. Current market factors such as inflation and interest rates are evaluated and consideration is given to the diversification and rebalancing of the portfolio. The Company also looks to peer data and historical returns for reasonability and appropriateness.
The 2006 and 2005 pension plan disclosures were determined using a September 30 measurement date. The Company recorded an intangible asset of $1.7 million at December 31, 2005, primarily for unamortized prior service costs, which is recorded in Notes receivable and Other assets. The change in the minimum liability included in other comprehensive income (loss), before taxes, for 2006, 2005 and 2004 was $(2.3) million, $(5.3) million and $11.4 million, respectively.
Additionally, the Company maintains retirement savings plans covering a significant portion of its employees. Expenses for these plans were approximately $8.6 million in 2006, $8.7 million in 2005 and $8.1 million in 2004. The Company also sponsors an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) as part of one of its existing savings plans. Costs for the ESOP are included in the previously stated expenses. The ESOP is available to eligible domestic employees and includes a match in the Companys common stock of contributions made by plan participants to the savings plan up to a maximum of 4.00% of a participants eligible compensation. Participants are not allowed to direct their contributions to the savings plan to an investment in the Companys common stock. A breakdown of shares held by the ESOP at December 31 is as follows:

1,381,984 |
|

|
1,628,579 |
|
The Company also has a limited number of unfunded post-retirement benefit programs. Carlisles liability for post-retirement medical benefits is limited to a maximum obligation; therefore, the Companys liability is not materially affected by an assumed health care cost trend rate.

The Companys post-retirement medical benefit obligations were determined using an assumed discount rate of 5.85% and 5.65% for years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The Company changed its assumption for the 2006 and 2005 valuation by basing the discount rate on a projected yield curve which provides better matching of the expected future retirement plan cash flows with projected yields.

In assessing whether deferred tax assets are realizable, the Company considers if it is more likely than not that they will be realized. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependant upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. At December 31, 2006, it was determined that certain carryforward tax attributes may not be fully realized. Accordingly, a valuation allowance was provided to reduce the related deferred tax assets. There are approximately $9 million of foreign loss carryforwards that can be carried forward indefinitely. Based on historical levels of taxable income and projections of future taxable income over the periods in which deferred tax assets are deductible, the Company believes it is more likely than not the benefits of remaining deductible differences will be realized.

The Companys income before tax from U.S. and non-U.S. operations amounted to $254.5 million and $41.6 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2006, $133.3 million and $26.6 million for 2005 and $93.3 million and $17.3 million for 2004. The Company has not provided U.S. tax on cumulative undistributed earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries where such earnings are considered indefinitely reinvested. Generally, the Company has provided U.S. tax on cumulative undistributed earnings of non-consolidated foreign subsidiaries, where such earnings are not considered indefinitely reinvested. However, due to U.S. tax law changes surrounding the U.S. foreign tax credit regime, only minimal incremental U.S. tax would be due on such repatriations. Below is a chart of unrepatriated earnings for the most current three years.

Note 16Commitments and Contingencies
For its continuing and discontinued operations, the Company is obligated under various noncancelable operating leases for certain facilities and equipment. Rent expense was $16.8 million, $16.7 million and $18.3 million in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Future minimum payments under its various noncancelable operating leases in each of the next five years are approximately $14.6 million in 2007, $11.1 million in 2008, $7.8 million in 2009, $6.3 million in 2010, $4.8 million in 2011 and $7.5 million thereafter.
At December 31, 2006, letters of credit amounting to $48.5 million were outstanding, primarily to provide security under insurance arrangements and certain borrowings.
The Company has financial guarantee lines in place for certain of its operations in Asia and Europe to facilitate working capital needs, customer performance and payment and warranty obligations. At December 31, 2006, the Company had issued guarantees of $3.1 million, of which $1.4 million represents amounts recorded in current liabilities or Other long-term liabilities. The fair value of these guarantees is estimated to equal the amount of the guarantees at December 31, 2006, due to their short-term nature.
During 2005, the Company sold certain assets and liabilities of its discontinued automotive components business which was part of a series of sales. At the time of the sale, the discontinued automotive components business was party to certain equipment and real property lease contracts. As part of the sale, however, the Company was not released from its obligations under these contracts. In September 2006, the buyer filed bankruptcy. As a result, during the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company paid its obligations under the equipment lease and sold a portion of the related equipment. The lease buyout and equipment sale resulted in a loss of $2.6 million which is reflected in discontinued operations.
66
Further, the buyer also assumed certain real estate leases in Mexico for which the Company has provided guarantees. However, these facilities were not included in the bankruptcy filing and continue to be utilized by the purchaser. The leases guaranteed by the Company expire in 2007 and 2011 and have total minimum lease payments of $2.4 million as of December 31, 2006. The Company believes that the purchaser will fulfill all obligations required by those lease agreements.
The Company offers various warranty programs on its installed roofing systems, braking products, truck trailers, and refrigerated truck bodies. The change in the Companys aggregate product warranty liabilities for the period ended December 31 is as follows:

The amount of extended product warranty revenues recognized was $14.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2006, $14.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2005 and $14.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2004.
The Company has entered into long-term purchase agreements effective January 1, 2007 and expiring December 31, 2009 for certain key raw materials. Commitments are variable based on changes in commodity price indices. Based on prices at December 31, 2006, commitments under these agreements total approximately $77.5 million.
The Company maintains self retained liabilities for workers compensation, medical, general liability and property claims up to applicable retention limits. Retention limits are between $0.5 million and $1.0 million per occurrence for general liability, $0.5 million per occurrence for workers compensation, $0.1 million per occurrence for property and up to $0.5 million for medical claims. The Company is insured for losses in excess of these limits.
The Company may be involved in various legal actions from time to time arising in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate outcome of such actions will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company, but may have a material impact on the Companys results of operations for a particular period. As a result of the favorable resolution of certain legal actions, the Company recognized gains, net of legal fees, of $7.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2006 and $3.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2005 that were included in Other income, net. In addition, the Company recognized in Other income, net, a charge of $2.5 million relating to an arbitration proceeding concerning the termination of a supply agreement for the year ended December 31, 2006.
At December 31, 2006, approximately 5% of the Companys employees were covered by collective bargaining agreements. Collective bargaining agreements that will expire in 2007 cover approximately 2% of the Companys employees. It is uncertain at this time whether agreements will be reached without interruption of production, and the terms of the agreements ultimately reached could result in higher wage and benefit costs.

Note 17Discontinued Operations and Assets Held for Sale
As part of its commitment to concentrate on its core businesses, in September 2006, the Company announced plans to exit the giftware business of the foodservice products business. The sale is expected to be completed in 2007. In November of 2005 the Company announced plans to sell the systems and equipment businesses. In 2004, the Company disclosed plans to sell three businesses including the plastic components operation of the tire and wheel business, the pottery business of the foodservice products business, as well as all operations of the engineered products business. The assets of these operations have met the criteria for, and have been classified as held for sale in accordance with SFAS 144, Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. In addition, results of operations for these businesses, and any gains or losses recognized from their sale, are reported as discontinued operations in accordance with SFAS 144.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Carlisle Companies Incorporated
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Carlisle Companies Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive income, shareholders equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2006. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a)2. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Carlisle Companies Incorporated and subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 11 and 13 of the consolidated financial statements, in 2006 the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Carlisle Companies Incorporateds internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 1, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Carlisle Companies Incorporated
We have audited managements assessment, included in the accompanying Managements Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, that Carlisle Companies Incorporated maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Carlisle Companies Incorporateds management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on managements assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating managements assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed 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. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, managements assessment that Carlisle Companies Incorporated maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO criteria. Also, in our opinion, Carlisle Companies Incorporated maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Carlisle Companies Incorporated and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statement of earnings and comprehensive income, shareholders equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2006 of Carlisle Companies Incorporated and subsidiaries and our report dated March 1, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
On May 4, 2005, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company dismissed KPMG LLP (KPMG) as the Companys independent public accounting firm and on May 17, 2005 engaged Ernst & Young LLP (EY) as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Companys financial statements and the effectiveness of the Companys internal controls over financial reporting. EY has served as the Companys auditors for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. EYs engagement commenced on May 17, 2005.
The audit report of KPMG on the Companys consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2004 as well as the audit reports of KPMG on managements assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were such audit reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle.
During the year ended December 31, 2004, and through May 4, 2005, there were no disagreements with KPMG on any matter of accounting principle or practice, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG, would have caused them to make reference thereto in their audit reports on the Companys financial statements for such year.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, and prior to the date the Company engaged EY, the Company did not consult EY with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Companys consolidated financial statements or internal controls over financial reporting, or any other matters or reportable events as set forth in paragraph (a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Item 304 of Regulation S-K
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Based upon that evaluation and as of December 31, 2006, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Management has prepared a report on the Companys internal control over financial reporting in which management has determined that the Companys controls are effective. A copy of managements report is set forth below.
(b) During the fourth quarter of 2006, there were no changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.
Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
