Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Basis of presentation

The Brink’s Company (along with its subsidiaries, “Brink’s” or “we”) has four geographic operating segments:
·  
Latin America
·  
Europe, Middle East, and Africa (“EMEA”)
·  
North America (U.S. and Canada)
·  
Asia Pacific

Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting and applicable quarterly reporting regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.  These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

We have made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.  The most significant estimates are related to goodwill and other long-lived assets, pension and other retirement benefit obligations, legal contingencies, costs associated with restructuring activities, foreign currency translation and deferred tax assets.

The consolidated financial statements include all of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of Brink’s and all entities in which Brink’s has a controlling voting interest.  Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation.

Foreign Currency Translation
Our consolidated financial statements are reported in U.S. dollars.  Our foreign subsidiaries maintain their records primarily in the currency of the country in which they operate.

The method of translating local currency financial information into U.S. dollars depends on whether the economy in which our foreign subsidiary operates has been designated as highly inflationary or not.  Economies with a three-year cumulative inflation rate of more than 100% are considered highly inflationary.

Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries in non-highly inflationary economies are translated into U.S. dollars using rates of exchange at the balance sheet date.  Translation adjustments are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss).  Revenues and expenses are translated at rates of exchange in effect during the year.  Transaction gains and losses are recorded in net income.

Foreign subsidiaries that operate in highly inflationary countries use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency.  Local-currency monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured into U.S. dollars using rates of exchange as of each balance sheet date, with remeasurement adjustments and other transaction gains and losses recognized in earnings.  Non-monetary assets and liabilities do not fluctuate with changes in local currency exchange rates to the dollar.

Venezuela
The economy in Venezuela has had significant inflation in the last several years.  We consolidate our Venezuelan results using our accounting policy for subsidiaries operating in highly inflationary economies.

Since 2003, the Venezuelan government has controlled the exchange of local currency into other currencies, including the U.S. dollar.  The Venezuelan government requires that currency exchanges be made at official rates or through auctions controlled by the government.  Different exchange processes exist for different industries and purposes.  The government does not approve all requests to convert bolivars to other currencies.

The government devalued the official rate for essential services in February 2013 from 5.3 to 6.3 bolivars to the dollar.  Late in 2013, the government added another official exchange process, known as SICAD, for travel and certain other purposes, made available at government discretion.  The published rate for this process in the first nine months of 2014 ranged from 10.0 to 12.0 bolivars to the U.S. dollar.  Since the end of the first quarter of 2013, we have only been able to obtain dollars once using the SICAD process.  We do not know whether we will be able to access the SICAD process again in the future. 

On March 24, 2014, the government initiated another exchange mechanism known as SICAD II.  Conversions under this mechanism are also subject to specific eligibility requirements.  Transactions have been reported to be in a range of 49 to 52 bolivars to the dollar.  Through September 30, 2014, we received approval to obtain $1.2 million (weighted average exchange rate of 51) through the SICAD II mechanism.  We do not know whether we will be able to access dollars under this new process on a consistent basis in the future.

As a result of the restrictions on currency exchange, we have in the past been unable to obtain sufficient U.S. dollars to purchase certain imported supplies and fixed assets to fully operate our business in Venezuela.  Consequently, we have occasionally purchased more expensive, bolivar-denominated supplies and fixed assets.  Furthermore, there is a risk that the current SICAD II process will be discontinued or not accessible when needed in the future, which may prevent us from obtaining dollars to operate our Venezuelan operations.

Remeasurement rates during 2013.  Through January 31, 2013, we used an official rate of 5.3 bolivars to the dollar to remeasure our bolivar-denominated monetary assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars and to translate our revenue and expenses.  After the devaluation in February 2013, we began to use the 6.3 official exchange rate to remeasure bolivar denominated monetary assets and liabilities and to translate our revenue and expenses.  We recognized a $13.4 million net remeasurement loss in the first nine months of 2013 when we changed from the 5.3 to 6.3 exchange rate.  The after-tax effect of these losses attributable to noncontrolling interests was $4.7 million in the first nine months of 2013.

Remeasurement rates during 2014.  Through March 23, 2014, we used the official rate of 6.3 bolivars to the dollar to remeasure our bolivar denominated monetary assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars and to translate our revenue and expenses.  Effective March 24, 2014, we began to use the exchange rate published for the SICAD II process to remeasure bolivar denominated monetary assets and liabilities and to translate our revenue and expenses.  We recognized a $121.6 million net remeasurement loss in the first nine months of 2014 when we changed from the official rate of 6.3 to SICAD II exchange rate, which has averaged approximately 50 since opening on March 24, 2014.  Transaction gains and losses since March 31, 2014 have not been significant.  At September 30, 2014, the rate was approximately 50.  The after-tax effect of these losses attributable to noncontrolling interests was $39.7 million in the first nine months of 2014.

Remeasuring our Venezuelan results using the SICAD II rate has had the following effects on our reported results:
·  
Brink’s Venezuela has become a less-significant component of Brink’s consolidated revenue and operating profit.
·  
Our investment in our Venezuelan operations on an equity-method basis has declined.  Our investment was $125.3 million at December 31, 2013, and was $60.6 million at September 30, 2014.
·  
Our bolivar-denominated net monetary assets included in our consolidated balance sheets has declined.  Our bolivar-denominated net monetary assets were $120.4 million (including $93.8 million of cash and cash equivalents) at December 31, 2013, and were $22.8 million (including $17.6 million of cash and cash equivalents) at September 30, 2014.

Effective tax rate
    56.2 %     28.3 %     (115.7 ) %     33.7 %

2014 Compared to U.S. Statutory Rate
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2014 was negative and less than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to the significant nondeductible expenses resulting from the currency devaluation in Venezuela in the first quarter.  These nondeductible expenses caused our earnings before tax in the period to be negative.

Excluding the Venezuela nondeductible expenses, our effective tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months is 44%.  The rate is higher than 35% primarily due to third-quarter tax expense for a divestiture of an equity-method investment in Peru and the realization of tax benefit for only a portion of the restructuring charges of the Netherlands operations, combined with higher tax expense resulting from cross border payments, nondeductible expenses in Mexico and the characterization of a French business tax as an income tax, partially offset by lower taxes resulting from the geographical mix of earnings.

2013 Compared to U.S. Statutory Rate
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2013 was lower than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate largely due to the geographical mix of earnings, mostly offset by higher taxes due to cross border payments, and the characterization of a French business tax as an income tax.

Note 6 – Fair value of financial instruments

Investments in Available-for-sale Securities
We have investments in mutual funds designated as available-for-sale securities that are carried at fair value in the financial statements.  For these investments, fair value was estimated based on quoted prices categorized as a Level 1 valuation.  Valuation levels were defined in our 2013 Form 10-K.

Fixed-Rate Debt
The fair value and carrying value of our fixed-rate debts are as follows:

Fair value

(a)  
On September 15, 2014, all outstanding DTA bonds were redeemed for an aggregate redemption price that included 100% of the $43.2 million outstanding principal amount of the bonds, plus all accrued unpaid interest through the redemption date.

The fair value estimate of our obligation related to the Dominion Terminal Associates (“DTA”) bonds at December 31, 2013, was based on price information observed in a less-active market, which we categorized as a Level 2 valuation.

The fair value estimate of our unsecured private-placement notes is based on the present value of future cash flows, discounted at rates for similar instruments at the respective measurement dates, which we have categorized as a Level 3 valuation.

There were no transfers in or out of any of the levels of the valuation hierarchy in the first nine months of 2014.

Other Financial Instruments
Other financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, floating rate debt, accounts payable and accrued liabilities.  The financial statement carrying amounts of these items approximate the fair value.

We have outstanding foreign currency forward and swap contracts to hedge transactional risks associated with foreign currencies.  Our short term contracts have a weighted average maturity of approximately one month.  In 2013, we entered into a cross-currency swap to hedge against the change in value of a long-term intercompany loan denominated in a currency other than the lending subsidiary’s functional currency.  The fair values of these currency contracts, including the cross-currency swap, are determined using Level 2 valuation techniques and are based on the present value of net future cash payments and receipts.  Accordingly, the fair values will fluctuate based on changes in market interest rates and the respective foreign currency to U.S. dollar exchange rate.  The fair values of our outstanding short-term foreign currency contracts at September 30, 2014, were not significant.  At September 30, 2014, the fair value of the cross-currency swap was an asset of $4.3 million.  There were no transfers in or out of any of the levels of the valuation hierarchy in the first nine months of 2014.

Note 7 – Share-based compensation plans
 
We have share-based compensation plans to retain employees and non-employee directors and to more closely align their interests with those of our shareholders.

The 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”) and the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) permit grants of restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock, performance units, stock appreciation rights, stock options, as well as other share-based awards to eligible employees.  The 2013 Plan also permits cash awards to eligible employees.  The 2005 Plan was replaced by the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan effective in February 2013.  No further grants of awards will be made under the 2005 Plan.

Directors are eligible for share-based awards through the Non-Employee Directors’ Equity Plan (the “Directors’ Plan”).  To date, we have granted only deferred stock units under the Directors’ Plan.  There are also outstanding stock options granted to directors under a prior plan, the Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Option Plan (the “Prior Directors’ Plan”).

At September 30, 2014, outstanding awards under these plans include performance share units (“PSUs”), market share units (“MSUs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), deferred stock units (“DSUs”) and stock options (“NQSOs”).

We have a compensation recoupment policy that requires the return of compensation to the Company under certain circumstances.  In the second quarter of 2014, we concluded that employees and the Company did not have a mutual understanding of the terms and conditions of equity awards subject to the policy because the policy provided the Company with discretion as to how the policy could be applied.  As a result, we concluded that there was not a grant date for the awards for accounting purposes as described in ASC Topic 718 Stock Compensation.  We recognized $4.2 million of expense during the second quarter of 2014 ($3.4 million net of tax) for the cumulative effect of this accounting error.  Prior periods were not materially affected. We modified our recoupment policy in July 2014 to establish a grant date for accounting purposes.

Non-cash Investing and Financing Activities
We acquired $5.9 million of armored vehicles and point of sale equipment under capital lease arrangements in the first nine months of 2014, as compared to $1.6 million of armored vehicles in the first nine months of 2013.

Note 11 – Costs associated with restructuring activities

We were recently notified by a significant customer of our Brink’s Netherlands business that it expects to terminate its contract for our Cash Management Services as of June 30, 2015.  As a result, we plan to restructure our Netherlands operations during 2015.  Restructuring activities are expected to include closure of up to three leased facilities, disposing of certain armored trucks and other assets, and reducing the workforce by approximately 600 employees.

Revenues from this customer were €49 million ($63 million) during the first nine months of 2014 and are expected to be €30 million ($37 million using exchange rates as of the end of September) in the first half of 2015.  Revenues from the customer are projected to be less than $5 million in 2016.  Revenues, profits and losses, including the restructuring charges described below, of our Netherlands business are included in the EMEA operating segment.

Estimated severance and other employee benefit costs.  We currently estimate severance and other employee benefit costs could range up to $16 million (using exchange rates as of the end of September).  The actual amount will depend on the number of employees that receive severance and the calculation of each employee’s severance.  We recognized our best estimate of severance and other employee benefit costs as a charge of $10.5 million in the third quarter of 2014.  The loss is included in Cost of revenues in our consolidated statements of income (loss) for the quarter and will be adjusted in future quarters.

We expect to begin negotiating with employee representatives in November the key terms of individual employee severance payments.  The key terms include the number of years of service, monthly wages per employee and a multiplying factor.  We have estimated the number of employees that will be paid severance during 2015.  Our estimate has been adjusted for a projected number of employees that will not receive severance payments because they will transfer to the successor business during 2015, terminate voluntarily prior to June 2015, or elect to receive early retirement benefits instead of severance payments.

Fixed asset impairment.  We recognized an impairment charge of $5.1 million during the third quarter of 2014, which reduced the fixed assets owned by the Netherlands subsidiary from a net book value of $13.7 million to $8.6 million.  The impairment charge is reported in Other operating income (expense) in our consolidated statements of income (loss).  Fair value was determined by the market approach, which is a valuation technique that uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, assuming the highest and best use for the asset.

Lease termination costs for branch facilities. We have not yet recognized any termination costs related to leases of facilities that we expect to close.  These costs will be recognized during the period the leased facilities are substantially vacated.  The contractual amount of lease termination costs projected to be owed if the facilities are closed during July 2015 is approximately $1 million.

Note 12 – Contingent matters

On June 19, 2008, a lawsuit captioned Del Valle Gurria S.C. v. Servicio Pan Americano de Protección, S.A. de C.V. was filed with the Twenty-third Civil Judge in the Federal District in Mexico (the “Court”) against Servicio Pan American de Proteccion, S.A. de C.V. (SERPAPROSA), the Mexico subsidiary that we acquired in November 2010. The plaintiff claims it is owed legal fees and corresponding value-added tax (VAT), interest and expenses related to its legal representation of SERPAPROSA in connection with tax audits conducted to the 1991, 1992 and 1994 fiscal years.  On October 28, 2010, the Court issued a decision in favor of SERPAPROSA in part and the plaintiff in part, ordering SERPAPROSA to pay the plaintiff $0.4 million for its previous representation of SERPAPROSA.  Between November 2010 and October 2013, the judgment was subject to multiple appeals by both parties to the Fifth Civil Court of Appeal of the Federal District in Mexico (the “Fifth Civil Court of Appeal”) and to the First Civil Collegiate Tribunal of the First Circuit in Mexico (the “First Civil Collegiate Tribunal”), and was remanded twice to the Court for determination of the fees to be paid to the plaintiff.  On December 6, 2013, the Fifth Civil Court of Appeal issued a decision in favor of the plaintiff, modifying the lower court’s ruling and ordering SERPAPROSA to pay the plaintiff $7.4 million plus VAT and interest for its previous representation of SERPAPROSA.  SERPAPROSA filed a constitutional injunction on January 20, 2014, with the First Civil Collegiate Tribunal.  The appeal was granted in favor of SERPAPROSA on September 17, 2014, ordering SERPAPROSA to pay $1.8 million plus VAT and interest.  The plaintiff filed an appeal on October 7, 2014, with the Mexico Supreme Court, which was rejected by the court on October 22, 2014; however, the plaintiff may continue to assert appeals.  The Company has accrued $1.8 million, reflecting the Company’s best estimate of exposure, although additional reasonably possible losses could be up to $10 million, based on currency exchange rates at September 30, 2014.  The ultimate resolution of this matter is unknown and the estimated liability may change in the future.  The Company denies the allegations asserted by the plaintiff and is vigorously defending itself in this matter.

In addition, we are involved in various other lawsuits and claims in the ordinary course of business. We are not able to estimate the loss or range of losses for some of these matters. We have recorded accruals for losses that are considered probable and reasonably estimable.  Except as otherwise noted, we do not believe that the ultimate disposition of any of the lawsuits currently pending against the Company should have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial position or results of operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated Review

Non-GAAP and Adjusted Non-GAAP Results
Non-GAAP and Adjusted Non-GAAP results described in this filing are financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).  The purpose of the Non-GAAP results is to report financial information without certain income and expense items and to adjust the quarterly Non-GAAP tax rates so that the Non-GAAP tax rate in each of the quarters is equal to the full-year Non-GAAP tax rate.  For 2014, a forecasted full-year tax rate is used.  The full year Non-GAAP tax rate in both years excludes certain pretax and tax income and expense amounts.  The purpose of Adjusted Non-GAAP results is to report historical Non-GAAP information assuming that our Venezuelan operations had been remeasured using a rate of 50 bolivars to the U.S. dollar.

The Non-GAAP and Adjusted Non-GAAP information provides information to assist comparability and estimates of future performance. Brink’s believes these measures are helpful in assessing operations and estimating future results and enable period-to-period comparability of financial performance.  In addition, Brink’s believes the measures will help investors assess the ongoing operations. Non-GAAP and Adjusted Non-GAAP results should not be considered as an alternative to revenue, income or earnings per share amounts determined in accordance with GAAP and should be read in conjunction with their GAAP counterparts.  Amounts reported for prior periods have been updated in this filing to present information consistently for all periods presented.

The adjustments are described in detail and are reconciled to our GAAP results on pages 37 – 41.

Consolidated projections of Non-GAAP targets for 2016 (including segment margin, segment operating profit, and EPS) are not reconciled to GAAP counterparts because we are unable to quantify certain amounts that would be required to be included in the GAAP measure without unreasonable effort.

(a)  
Segment operating profit is a Non-GAAP measure when presented in any context other than prescribed by ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting.  The tables on pages 24 and 27 reconcile the measurement to operating profit, a GAAP measure.  Disclosure of total segment operating profit enables investors to assess the total operating performance of Brink’s excluding non-segment income and expense.  Forward-looking estimates related to total segment operating profit and non-segment income (expense) for 2014 are provided on page 35.
(b)  
Amounts reported in this table are attributable to the shareholders of Brink’s and exclude earnings related to noncontrolling interests.
(c)  
These Non-GAAP results for 2014 reflect Venezuela’s local earnings translated at 6.3 bolivars to the U.S. dollar through March 23, 2014, and at approximately 50 bolivars to the U.S. dollar from March 24 to September 30, 2014.  Also see pages 37 – 41 for Non-GAAP Results Adjusted for Venezuelan Results at 50 Bolivars per U.S. dollar for hypothetical historical results had we used a rate of 50 to translate Venezuela’s results for all periods in 2013 and 2014.

Organic Growth
Organic growth represents the change in revenues or operating profit between the current and prior period, excluding the effect of the following items: acquisitions and dispositions, changes in currency exchange rates and the remeasurement of net monetary assets in Venezuela under highly inflationary accounting.

GAAP
Third Quarter
Our revenues decreased $69.3 million or 7% and our operating profit decreased $11.7 million or 20% in the third quarter of 2014.  Revenues decreased due to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates, partially offset by organic growth in our Latin America segment.

Cost of revenues decreased 2% to $770.9 million primarily due to currency devaluation in Venezuela, partially offset by severance charges related to the restructuring of our Netherlands operations, revenue-related growth in Brazil and a loss of $10.4 million related to the theft loss in Chile.  Selling, general and administrative costs decreased 4% to $135.5 million primarily due to currency devaluation in Venezuela.

Operating profit decreased primarily due to an organic decrease in our Latin America segment, unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates and severance and asset impairment charges related to the restructuring of our Netherlands operations due to the loss of a customer ($15.6 million), partially offset by the gain on sale of our minority interest in a CIT business in Peru ($44.3 million).  2014 results also included a loss of $10.4 million related to the theft loss in Chile.

Our income from continuing operations in 2014 decreased $11.1 million compared to 2013 primarily due to the operating profit decrease mentioned above, partially offset by the income tax and noncontrolling interest impact of the profit decrease.

Our earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.38, down from $0.61 in 2013.

Nine Months
Our revenues decreased $96.6 million or 3% and our operating profit decreased $123.6 million, resulting in a loss in the first nine months of 2014.  Revenues decreased due to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates, partially offset by organic growth in our Latin America segment.

Cost of revenues decreased 2% to $2,321.1 million as revenue-related growth in Brazil and severance charges related to the restructuring of our Netherlands operations were offset by devaluation in Venezuela.  Selling, general and administrative costs decreased by $2.0 million to $416.0 million as devaluation in Venezuela was partially offset by higher overall stock compensation expense.

Operating profit decreased primarily due to a larger charge related to the remeasurement of net monetary assets as a result of the devaluation of Venezuela currency ($121.6 million in 2014 versus $13.4 million in 2013).  The higher Venezuela remeasurement charge, other unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates, severance and asset impairment charges related to the restructuring of our Netherlands operations due to the loss of a customer ($15.6 million) and an organic decrease in our Latin America segment were partially offset by lower non-segment expenses, including the gain on sale of our minority interest in a CIT business in Peru ($44.3 million).

Our income from continuing operations in 2014 decreased $83.3 million compared to 2013 primarily due to the operating profit decrease mentioned above, partially offset by the income tax and noncontrolling interest impact of the profit decrease.

Our earnings per share from continuing operations was ($0.76), down from $0.94 in 2013.

Third Quarter
The analysis of Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of GAAP revenues.

Our operating profit decreased $45.3 million or 64% primarily due to an organic decrease in our Latin America segment and unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates. 2014 results also included a loss of $10.4 million related to the theft loss in Chile.

Our income from continuing operations in 2014 decreased 72% primarily due to the operating profit decrease mentioned above, partially offset by the income tax and noncontrolling interest impact of the profit decrease.

Our earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.19, down from $0.69 in 2013.

Nine Months
The analysis of Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of GAAP revenues.

Our operating profit decreased $47.7 million or 30% due to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates, an organic profit decrease in our Latin America segment and increased non-segment expenses.

Our income from continuing operations in 2014 decreased 42% due to lower operating profit, partially offset by the income tax and noncontrolling interest impact of the profit decrease.

Our earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.86, down from $1.49 in 2013.

Outlook for 2014

GAAP
Overall
Our organic revenue growth rate for 2014 is expected to be in the 11% to 13% range, and our estimate of the negative impact of changes in currency exchange rates on revenue is in the 17% to 19% range.  We expect our revenue to be $3.7 billion in 2014.  Our operating segment margin is expected to be in the 1.0% to 2.0% range.
 
We recently offered eligible pension plan participants the option of receiving the value of their pension benefit in a lump-sum payment or a reduced annuity.  As a result, we expect to incur a fourth-quarter non-cash settlement charge against our GAAP earnings of between $50 million and $65 million.  The amount of the charge depends on the final number of participants who choose one of these options and actuarial assumptions at the remeasurement date.

We continue to focus on reducing the cost structure of our business to achieve our 2016 financial targets, which may increase severance and other costs.

By Segment
Latin America organic revenue growth rate for 2014 is expected to be in the 25% to 27% range, and our estimate of the negative impact of changes in currency exchange rates on Latin America revenue is in the 38% to 42% range.  Our Latin America segment margin is expected to be in the (3.0)% to (5.0)% range. 

EMEA organic revenue growth rate for 2014 is expected to be in the 0% to 2% range, and our estimate of the positive impact of changes in currency exchange rates on EMEA revenue is in the 0% to 3% range.  Our EMEA segment margin is expected to be in the 5.5% to 7.5% range. 

North America organic revenue growth rate for 2014 is expected to be in the 0% to 2% range, and our estimate of the impact of changes in currency exchange rates on North America revenue is in the negative 2% to 0% range.  Our North America segment margin is expected to be in the 1.5% to 2.5% range for 2014.  We expect the North American margin to improve in 2015, and we have a goal to reach 7% in 2016.

Asia Pacific organic revenue growth rate for 2014 is expected to be in the 2% to 4% range, and our estimate of the negative impact of changes in currency exchange rates on Asia Pacific revenue is in the 1% to 3% range.  Our Asia Pacific segment margin is expected to be in the 10.5% to 12.5% range. 

Non-GAAP
Overall
Our outlook for Non-GAAP revenues is the same as our outlook for GAAP revenues.  Our outlook for Non-GAAP operating segment margin is expected to be in the 5.5% to 6.0% range.  Our target for 2015 is to achieve a Non-GAAP segment margin rate of 6.5% to 7.0% on revenue of approximately $3.8 billion.  We are targeting Non-GAAP segment margin rate of 8% resulting in a range of $290 to $330 million of Non-GAAP segment operating profit and $2.50 to $3.00 of earnings per share by 2016.

By Segment
Our outlook for Non-GAAP revenues is the same as our outlook for GAAP revenues.  Our outlook for Non-GAAP segment margin is the same as our outlook for GAAP segment margin for our Asia Pacific segment.  Latin America Non-GAAP segment margin excludes the expenses related to currency devaluation in Venezuela and is expected to be in the 5.0% to 7.0% range.  EMEA Non-GAAP segment margin excludes costs related to the restructuring of our operations in the Netherlands and is expected to be in the 6.5% to 8.5% range.  North America Non-GAAP segment margin excludes the cost of U.S. retirement plans and is expected to be in the 2.0% to 3.0% range.

Performing Branches in U.S.
Performing branches is an internal profitability metric we use to measure our U.S. operations.  During the second quarter, we revised our definition of a performing branch to better align with the industry.  We considered 56% of our branches to be performing branches in the U.S. at the end of 2013.  Our goal is to increase performing branches to 85% by the end of 2016.  We define a performing branch as a branch that has positive operating profit after all country overhead costs have been allocated to the branches.

(a)  
Includes operating results and gains/losses on acquisitions, sales and exits of businesses.
(b)  
The “Currency” amount in the GAAP table is the sum of the “monthly currency changes” adjusted for any additional expense recorded under highly inflationary accounting rules.  The “monthly currency change” is equal to the Revenue or Operating Profit for the month in local currency, on a country-by-country basis, multiplied by the difference in rates used to translate the current period amounts to U.S. dollars versus the translation rates used in the year-ago month.  Venezuela is translated to the U.S. dollar under highly inflationary accounting rules.  Net monetary assets in local currency are remeasured to U.S. dollars using current exchange rates with losses recognized in earnings.  Nonmonetary assets under these rules are not remeasured to a lower basis in U.S. dollars when the currency devalues.  Instead, these assets retain their higher U.S. dollar historical bases and the excess basis is recognized in earnings as each asset is consumed.  Both of these effects are included in “Currency” in the GAAP table.  The Non-GAAP table excludes any excess basis recognized in earnings as the nonmonetary assets are consumed.

Segment Review
Third Quarter 2014 versus Third Quarter 2013

Total Segment Operating Profit

GAAP
Revenue decreased 7% to $913.1 million due primarily to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates partially offset by organic growth of 26% in our Latin America segment.

Segment operating profit decreased 79% to $17.0 million reflecting the negative impact of organic decreases in our Latin America segment, changes in currency exchange rates, and severance and asset impairment charges related to the restructuring of our Netherlands operations due to the loss of a customer ($15.6 million).

2014 results included a charge of $10.4 million related to the theft loss in Chile.  This charge impacted the Latin America segment by $4.5 million, the EMEA segment by $3.1 million, the North America segment by $2.3 million and the Asia Pacific segment by $0.5 million.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of GAAP revenues.

Segment operating profit decreased 53% to $38.4 million due to organic decreases in our Latin America segment and the negative impact of changes in currency exchange rates.

2014 results included a charge of $10.4 million related to the theft loss in Chile.  This charge impacted the Latin America segment by $4.5 million, the EMEA segment by $3.1 million, the North America segment by $2.3 million and the Asia Pacific segment by $0.5 million.

Latin America

GAAP
Revenue in Latin America decreased 19% ($80.6 million) due to unfavorable currency impact ($191.8 million) primarily driven by devaluation in Venezuela, partially offset by 26% organic growth ($111.2 million) driven by inflation-based price increases in Venezuela and Argentina, and volume and price growth in Brazil.

Latin America operating profit decreased $47.9 million to an operating loss of $5.1 million due to:
·  
organic decreases in Venezuela, Mexico and Brazil,
·  
unfavorable currency impact ($16.5 million), and
·  
higher security costs.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of Latin America Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of Latin America GAAP revenues.

Latin America operating profit decreased 100% ($42.1 million) due to:
·  
organic decreases in Venezuela, Brazil and Mexico,
·  
unfavorable currency impact ($11.7 million), and
·  
higher security costs.

EMEA

GAAP
Revenue increased 1% ($2.3 million) due to organic growth in Germany and Russia, mostly offset by lower volumes in our Global Services line of business.

EMEA operating profit decreased 51% ($16.5 million) due to severance and asset impairment charges related to the restructuring of our Netherlands operations due to the loss of a customer ($15.6 million), higher security costs and lower profits in France, partially offset by organic profit growth in the Netherlands (excluding the severance and asset impairment charges) and Germany.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of EMEA Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of EMEA GAAP revenues.
 
 
25

 

EMEA operating profit decreased 3% ($1.1 million) due to higher security costs and lower profits in France, partially offset by organic profit growth in the Netherlands and Germany.

North America

GAAP
Revenue in North America increased 2% ($5.4 million) as organic growth in the United States and Canada offset unfavorable currency impact ($2.2 million).

Operating profit increased $1.3 million as lower pension costs and improvement from cost efficiency measures were offset by lower CIT demand and continued pricing pressure in the U.S., investments in our Global Payments line of business and higher security costs.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of North America Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of North America GAAP revenues.

Operating profit decreased $0.9 million due to lower CIT demand and continued pricing pressure in the U.S., investments in our Global Payments line of business and higher security costs, offset by improvement from cost efficiency measures.

Most of the armored vehicles used by our U.S. operations are accounted for as operating leases.  The cost related to these leases is recognized as rental expense in the consolidated statements of income (loss).  Since March 2009, we have acquired armored vehicles in the U.S. either by purchasing or by leasing under agreements that we have accounted for as capital leases.  We currently expect to continue acquiring new vehicles in the U.S. with capital leases. The cost of vehicles under capital lease is recognized as depreciation and interest expense.  Because of the shift in the way we acquire vehicles in the U.S., our depreciation and interest related to the U.S. fleet is higher and our rental expense is lower compared to earlier periods and we expect this trend to continue.

Asia Pacific

GAAP
Revenue in Asia Pacific increased 10% due to organic growth across the region.

Operating profit increased 4%.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of Asia Pacific Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of Asia Pacific GAAP revenues.

Operating profit increased 4%.

Segment Review
Nine Months 2014 versus Nine Months 2013

Total Segment Operating Profit

GAAP
Revenue decreased 3% to $2,806.2 million due primarily to unfavorable changes in currency exchange rates partially offset by organic growth of 25% in our Latin America segment.

Segment operating profit decreased to a loss of $11.4 million reflecting the negative impact of changes in currency exchange rates, severance and asset impairment charges related to the restructuring of our Netherlands operations due to the loss of a customer ($15.6 million) and organic decreases in our Latin America segment.  The first nine months of 2014 include a $121.6 million charge related to the remeasurement of net monetary assets due to a devaluation of Venezuela currency versus a charge of $13.4 million in 2013.

2014 results included a charge of $10.4 million related to the theft loss in Chile.  This charge impacted the Latin America segment by $4.5 million, the EMEA segment by $3.1 million, the North America segment by $2.3 million and the Asia Pacific segment by $0.5 million. 2013 results included a charge of $18.7 million related to a robbery in Brussels, Belgium.  This charge impacted the Latin America segment by $5.9 million, the EMEA segment by $8.5 million, the North America segment by $3.5 million and the Asia Pacific segment by $0.8 million.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of GAAP revenues.

Segment operating profit decreased 22% ($42.2 million) reflecting the unfavorable impact of currency changes and lower organic profits in our Latin America segment.

2014 results included a charge of $10.4 million related to the theft loss in Chile.  This charge impacted the Latin America segment by $4.5 million, the EMEA segment by $3.1 million, the North America segment by $2.3 million and the Asia Pacific segment by $0.5 million. 2013 results included a charge of $18.7 million related to the robbery in Brussels, Belgium.  This charge impacted the Latin America segment by $5.9 million, the EMEA segment by $8.5 million, the North America segment by $3.5 million and the Asia Pacific segment by $0.8 million.

Latin America

GAAP
Latin America revenue decreased 11% ($132.2 million) due to unfavorable currency impact ($445.7 million) partially offset by organic growth of 25% ($313.5 million) driven by inflation-based price increases in Venezuela and Argentina, and volume and price growth in Brazil.

Latin America had an operating loss of $81.4 million compared to operating profit of $90.6 million in 2013 due to unfavorable currency impact ($158.7 million), including a larger charge for the remeasurement of net monetary assets in Venezuela in 2014 versus 2013 ($108.2 million), and lower organic results in Mexico and Chile, partially offset by improved organic results in Argentina, Brazil and Venezuela.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of Latin America Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of Latin America GAAP revenues.

Latin America operating profit decreased 44% ($44.5 million) due primarily to unfavorable currency impact ($34.8 million) and lower organic results in Mexico and Chile, partially offset by organic improvements in Argentina, Brazil and Venezuela.

EMEA

GAAP
EMEA revenue increased 4% ($32.0 million) due to favorable changes in currency exchange rates ($20.6 million) and organic revenue growth ($11.4 million).  Organic growth was driven by increased volumes in Russia and Ireland.

EMEA operating profit decreased 20% ($11.7 million) due to severance and asset impairment charges related to the restructuring of our Netherlands operations due to the loss of a customer ($15.6 million) and lower profits in France, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, partially offset by higher profits in the Netherlands (excluding the severance and asset impairment charges) and Germany.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of EMEA Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of EMEA GAAP revenues.
 
 
 
28

 

EMEA operating profit increased 7% ($4.2 million) due to higher profits in the Netherlands and Germany, partially offset by lower profits in France, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

North America

GAAP
Revenues in North America were flat to 2013 as organic increases in the United States and Canada were mostly offset by unfavorable currency impact ($9.4 million).

Operating profit increased $3.8 million due to lower pension costs and improvement from cost efficiency measures, which were partially offset by lower CIT demand and continued pricing pressure in the U.S. and investments in our Global Payments business.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of North America Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of North America GAAP revenues.

Operating profit decreased $1.9 million due to lower CIT demand and continued pricing pressure in the U.S. and investments in our Global Payments line of business, which were partially offset by improvement from cost efficiency measures.

Most of the armored vehicles used by our U.S. operations are accounted for as operating leases.  The cost related to these leases is recognized as rental expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income (loss).  Since March 2009, we have acquired armored vehicles in the U.S. either by purchasing or by leasing under agreements that we have accounted for as capital leases.  We currently expect to continue acquiring new vehicles in the U.S. with capital leases. The cost of vehicles under capital lease is recognized as depreciation and interest expense.  Because of the shift in the way we acquire vehicles in the U.S., our depreciation and interest related to the U.S. fleet is higher and our rental expense is lower compared to earlier periods and we expect this trend to continue.

Asia Pacific

GAAP
Revenue in Asia Pacific increased 2% ($1.9 million) due mainly to organic growth across the region partially offset by unfavorable currency impact ($2.8 million).

Operating profit was flat.

Non-GAAP
The analysis of Asia Pacific Non-GAAP revenues is the same as the analysis of Asia Pacific GAAP revenues.

Operating profit was flat.

Third Quarter
We recognized $30.5 million in non-segment income in the third quarter of 2014 compared to expense of $20.7 million in the prior year period. The income in 2014 was mainly due to the $44.3 million gain on the sale of our equity interest in a CIT business in Peru and lower retirement costs ($7.4 million).

Nine Months
Non-segment expenses in the first nine months of 2014 were $56.4 million lower than 2013 due to the
$44.3 million gain on the sale of our equity interest in a CIT business in Peru and lower retirement costs ($20.5 million),
partially offset by:
·  
higher overall stock compensation expense ($4.6 million) including a cumulative accounting adjustment versus the prior year period, and
·  
favorable purchase price adjustments in 2013 primarily related to a 2010 purchase of a CIT business in Mexico ($1.1 million) and a January 2013 purchase of a payments business in Brazil ($0.9 million).

Outlook for 2014
We estimate that non-segment expenses on a GAAP basis will be $18 million in 2014, a decrease from 2013 primarily as a result of the gain on the sale of our equity interest in a CIT business in Peru and lower retirement costs.  See page 35 for a summary of our 2014 Outlook.

Third Quarter
Non-segment expenses on a Non-GAAP basis in the third quarter of 2014 were $1.4 million higher compared to third quarter of 2013, due to higher general and administrative costs ($1.3 million) primarily related to higher stock compensation expense.

Nine Months
Non-segment expenses on a Non-GAAP basis in the first nine months of 2014 were $5.5 million higher than 2013, due to higher general and administrative costs ($5.3 million) primarily related to a reduction of accrued benefits in the first quarter of 2013 and higher overall stock compensation expense.

Outlook for 2014
We estimate that non-segment expenses on a Non-GAAP basis will be $47 million in 2014, up slightly from 2013.  See page 35 for a summary of our 2014 Outlook.

Foreign Operations

We currently serve customers in more than 100 countries, including approximately 43 countries where we operate subsidiaries.

We are subject to risks customarily associated with doing business in foreign countries, including labor and economic conditions, political instability, controls on repatriation of earnings and capital, nationalization, expropriation and other forms of restrictive action by local governments.  Changes in the political or economic environments in the countries in which we operate could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  The future effects, if any, of these risks are unknown.

Our international operations conduct a majority of their business in local currencies.  Because our financial results are reported in U.S. dollars, they are affected by changes in the value of various local currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar.
 
From time to time, we use foreign currency forward and swap contracts to hedge transactional risks associated with foreign currencies.  At September 30, 2014, the notional value of our shorter term outstanding foreign currency contracts was $48.3 million with remaining weighted average contract maturities of approximately 1 month.  These shorter term foreign currency contracts primarily offset exposures in the Mexican peso and Euro.  Additionally, these shorter term contracts are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes, and accordingly, changes in their fair value are recorded immediately in earnings. We recognized losses of $0.7 million on such contracts in the first nine months of 2014.  At September 30, 2014, the fair value of these shorter term foreign currency contracts was not significant.

We also have a longer term cross currency swap contract to hedge exposure in Brazilian real which is designated as a cash flow hedge for accounting purposes.  At September 30, 2014, the notional value of this longer term contract was $20.9 million with a weighted average maturity of 1.8 years.  We recognized net losses of $0.2 million on this contract, of which gains of $0.6 million were included in other operating income (expense) to offset transaction losses of $0.6 million and expenses of $0.8 million were included in interest and other income (expense) in the first nine months of 2014.  At September 30, 2014, the fair value of the longer term cross currency swap was an asset of $4.3 million.

See note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for a description of Venezuelan government currency processes and restrictions, their effect on our operations, and how we account for currency remeasurement for our Venezuelan subsidiaries.

Third Quarter
Other operating income was higher by $39.6 million in the third quarter of 2014 than the third quarter of 2013 mainly as a result of
·  
a $44.3 million gain on the sale of our equity interest in a CIT business in Peru, and
·  
$4.1 million in higher foreign currency transaction losses in 2013,
partially offset by
·  
$6.3 million in impairment losses in the 2014 period, including $5.1 million related to property and equipment in the Netherlands (see note 11 to the consolidated financial statements for more information on the restructuring in the Netherlands).

Nine Months
Other operating expense increased in the first nine months of 2014 primarily as a result of the remeasurement of net monetary assets in Venezuela due to the adoption of the government’s SICAD II currency exchange process partially offset by the gain on the sale of our interest in the Peru CIT business.  See note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for a description of the change in currency exchange processes and rates in Venezuela.

2014 Compared to U.S. Statutory Rate
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2014 was negative and less than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate primarily due to the significant nondeductible expenses resulting from the currency devaluation in Venezuela in the first quarter.  These nondeductible expenses caused our earnings before tax in the period to be negative.

Excluding the Venezuela nondeductible expenses, our effective tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months is 44%.  The rate is higher than 35% primarily due to third-quarter tax expense for a divestiture of an equity-method investment in Peru and the realization of tax benefit for only a portion of the restructuring charges of the Netherlands operations, combined with higher tax expense resulting from cross border payments, nondeductible expenses in Mexico and the characterization of a French business tax as an income tax, partially offset by lower taxes resulting from the geographical mix of earnings.

2013 Compared to U.S. Statutory Rate
The effective income tax rate on continuing operations in the first nine months of 2013 was lower than the 35% U.S. statutory tax rate largely due to the geographical mix of earnings, mostly offset by higher taxes due to cross border payments, and the characterization of a French business tax as an income tax.

Outlook for 2014
Due to the significant non-deductible Venezuela remeasurement charge, tax expense is projected to be more than income from continuing operations before tax on a GAAP basis, resulting in a tax rate in excess of 100%.  On a Non- GAAP basis, the effective income tax rate for 2014 is expected to be between 36.5% and 39.5%.  The estimated range increased by 1.5% this quarter due to the exclusion of Peru earnings as a result of the divestiture. Our effective tax rate may fluctuate materially from these estimates due to changes in the Venezuela foreign exchange rate (SICAD II), permanent book-tax differences, changes in the expected geographical mix of earnings, changes in current or deferred taxes due to legislative changes, changes in valuation allowances or accruals for contingencies and other factors.  See page 35 for a summary of our 2014 outlook.

The net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in the third quarter and first nine months of 2014 was primarily due to net losses of our Venezuelan subsidiary.  As a result of the March 2014 currency devaluation in Venezuela, we recognized $121.6 million of currency exchange losses from the remeasurement of net monetary assets and another $16.3 million of expense related to nonmonetary assets in the first nine months of 2014. Nonmonetary assets were not remeasured to a lower basis when the currency devalued.  Instead, under highly inflationary accounting rules, these assets retained their higher historical bases, with the excess recognized in earnings as the asset is consumed. The after-tax effect of these losses attributable to noncontrolling interests was $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2014 and $46.0 million in the first nine months of 2014.

Outlook for 2014
We expect the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests to be $25 million to $29 million on a GAAP basis in 2014 as compared to net income of $24 million in 2013.  The 2014 loss attributable to noncontrolling interests is principally due to the remeasurement of net monetary assets in the first quarter for Venezuela.

We expect the net income attributable to noncontrolling interests to be $18 million to $22 million on a Non-GAAP basis in 2014 as compared to $29 million in 2013.  The lower net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in 2014 is due to lower forecasted U.S. dollar earnings for Venezuela in 2014 as a result of less-favorable rates used to translate local results.  See page 35 for a summary of our 2014 Outlook.

(a)  
To eliminate the effects of the March 2014 currency devaluation in Venezuela as described in (g) below.  Expenses eliminated from Non-GAAP results include first-quarter currency exchange losses totaling $122 million related to remeasured net monetary assets and $16 million in year-to-date expenses related to nonmonetary assets.  Nonmonetary assets were not remeasured to a lower basis when the currency devalued.  Instead, under highly inflationary accounting rules, these assets retained their higher historical bases, which excess is recognized in earnings as the asset is consumed.
(b)  
To eliminate
·  
$44.9 million in third-quarter divestiture gains primarily related to the sale of our equity investment in a CIT business in Peru.
·  
$15.6 million in third-quarter charges related to the planned restructuring of our business in the Netherlands.
·  
$3.8 million in equity earnings ($1.2 million in the first quarter, $1.3 million in the second quarter and $1.3 million in the third quarter) from our former investment in a CIT business in Peru.
·  
a $0.7 million adjustment in the third quarter related to the decrease in a loss contingency assumed in the 2010 Mexico acquisition.
·  
$1.1 million in restructuring charges ($0.7 million in the second quarter and $0.4 million in the third quarter) related to Latin American operations that are expected to be shut down within the next 12 months.
(c)  
To eliminate employee benefit settlement losses in Mexico.
(d)  
To eliminate expenses related to U.S. retirement plans.
(e)  
To eliminate an accounting adjustment related to share-based compensation ($4.2 million expense in the second quarter and a $1.8 million benefit in the third quarter).  The accounting adjustment revises the accounting for share-based compensation from fixed to variable fair value accounting as defined in ASC Topic 718, Stock Compensation.

To adjust effective income tax rate in the interim period to be equal to the midpoint of the estimated range of the full-year Non-GAAP effective income tax rate.  The midpoint of the estimated range of the full-year Non-GAAP effective tax rate for 2014 is 38%.
(g)  
Effective March 24, 2014, Brink’s began remeasuring its Venezuelan operating results using currency exchange rates reported under a newly established currency exchange process in Venezuela (the “SICAD II process”).  The rate published for this process has averaged approximately 50 since opening on March 24, 2014.  This adjustment reflects a hypothetical remeasurement of Brink’s Venezuela’s first quarter 2014 revenue and operating results using a rate of 50 bolivars to the U.S. dollar, which approximates the rate observed in the new SICAD II process in March 2014.
(h)  
Adjusted Non-GAAP results are equal to Non-GAAP results further adjusted for Venezuelan results at 50 bolivars per U.S. dollar.

Amounts may not add due to rounding.

(a)  
To eliminate
·  
$6.1 million in equity earnings ($1.6 million in the first quarter, $1.3 million in the second quarter, $1.5 million in the third quarter, and $1.7 million in the fourth quarter) from our former investment in a CIT business in Peru.
·  
a $1.1 million adjustment in the first quarter of 2013 to the amount of gain recognized on a 2010 business acquisition in Mexico as a result of a favorable adjustment to the purchase price received in the first quarter of 2013.
·  
$1.7 million of favorable adjustments in the third and fourth quarters of 2013 primarily related to the January 2013 acquisition of Rede Trel in Brazil.
·  
$3.1 million in adjustments in the fourth quarter of 2013 related to the increase in a loss contingency assumed in the 2010 Mexico acquisition and the impairment of an intangible asset acquired in the 2009 India acquisition.
·  
a $2.6 million unfavorable tax adjustment related to the Belgium disposition.
(b)  
To eliminate the effects of the February 2013 currency devaluation in Venezuela in which the official exchange rate in Venezuela declined 16% from 5.3 to 6.3 bolivars to the U.S. dollar.  Expenses eliminated from Non-GAAP results include first quarter currency exchange losses totaling $13.4 million related to remeasured net monetary assets as well as expenses related to nonmonetary assets ($0.5 million in the first quarter, $0.2 million in the second quarter, $0.2 million in the third quarter and $0.3 million in the fourth quarter).  Nonmonetary assets were not remeasured to a lower basis when the currency devalued.  Instead, under highly inflationary accounting rules, these assets retained their higher historical bases, which excess is recognized in earnings as the asset is consumed.  
(c)  
To eliminate employee benefit settlement losses in Mexico.
(d)  
To eliminate expenses related to U.S. retirement plans.

Effective March 24, 2014, Brink’s began remeasuring its Venezuelan operating results using currency exchange rates reported under a newly established currency exchange process in Venezuela (the “SICAD II process”).  This adjustment reflects a hypothetical remeasurement of Brink’s Venezuela’s 2013 revenue and operating results using a rate of 50 bolivars to the U.S. dollar, which approximates the rate observed in the new SICAD II process in March 2014.  Losses that would have been recognized in 2013 had Brink’s used a rate of 50 bolivars to the U.S. dollar to remeasure its net monetary assets have been excluded from this adjustment and the Adjusted Non-GAAP results.

Adjusted Non-GAAP results are equal to Non-GAAP results further adjusted for Venezuelan results at 50 bolivars per U.S. dollar.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $31.9 million in the first nine months of 2014 as compared to the first nine months of 2013.  Cash used for investing activities decreased by $101.4 million in the first nine months of 2014 compared to the first nine months of 2013 primarily as a result of $60 million of cash proceeds received on the sale of an equity interest in a CIT business in Peru and a decrease in capital expenditures and cash used for business acquisitions.  Cash also decreased $94.1 million in 2014 as a result of a change in the exchange rate we used to remeasure net monetary assets including cash in Venezuela (see note 1 to the consolidated financial statements).  We prepaid $43.2 million of our long-term debt during the third quarter of 2014.  We financed our liquidity needs in the first nine months of 2014 with our revolving credit facility.

We entered into a new master lease agreement in late 2009 to finance the acquisition of new armored vehicles in the U.S.  Vehicles acquired under the 2009 lease agreement have been accounted for as capital leases.  Vehicles acquired under the previous lease agreement were accounted for as operating leases.

(a)  
To eliminate the change in the balance of customer obligations related to cash received and processed in certain of our secure Cash Management Services operations.  The title to this cash transfers to us for a short period of time.  The cash is generally credited to customers’ accounts the following day and we do not consider it as available for general corporate purposes in the management of our liquidity and capital resources.

Both measures of “Non-GAAP cash flows from operating activities” (before and after U.S. pension contributions) are supplemental financial measures that are not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP.  The purpose of these Non-GAAP measures is to report financial information excluding the impact of cash received and processed in certain of our secure Cash Management Services operations, without cash flows from discontinued operations and with and without cash flows related to the primary U.S. pension plan.  We believe these measures are helpful in assessing cash flows from operations, enable period-to-period comparability and are useful in predicting future operating cash flows.  These Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated statements of cash flows.

GAAP
Operating cash flows decreased by $31.9 million in the first nine months of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013.  The decrease was primarily due to higher cash contributions to our primary U.S. pension plan and lower operating profit.  These decreases in operating cash flows were partially offset by increases in cash provided from changes in working capital, including the timing of security loss payments and insurance recoveries, changes in customer obligations of certain of our secure Cash Management Services operations (cash held for customers increased by $15.5 million in the first nine months of 2014 compared to a decrease of $4.9 million in the same 2013 period) and lower amounts paid for income taxes.

Non-GAAP (reduced by pension contributions)
Cash flows from operating activities decreased by $56.8 million in the first nine months of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.  The decrease was primarily due to higher cash contributions to our primary U.S. pension plan and lower operating profit.  These decreases in operating cash flows were partially offset by increases in cash provided from changes in working capital, including the timing of security loss payments and insurance recoveries, and lower amounts paid for income taxes.

Non-GAAP (before pension contributions)
Cash flows from operating activities increased by $17.4 million in the first nine months of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013.  The increase was primarily due to cash provided from changes in working capital, including the timing of security loss payments and insurance recoveries, and lower amounts paid for income taxes, partially offset by lower operating profit.

Cash used by investing activities decreased by $101.4 million in the first nine months of 2014 versus the first nine months of 2013.  The decrease was primarily due to proceeds of $60 million received on the sale of an equity interest in a CIT business in Peru and a decrease in capital expenditures of $38.4 million primarily related to information technology and other equipment.  An acquisition of noncontrolling interests of a subsidiary ($18.5 million in 2013) is included in the financing section of our cash flows statement.

Since 2011, we have increased our spending on information technology to improve business process productivity, and we have reduced our maintenance capital expenditures for vehicles and facilities while continuing to focus on safety and security.  We continue to focus on maximizing asset utilization and maintenance of capital expenditures which has enabled us to reduce our annual spend to a level more in line with depreciation.  Our reinvestment ratio, which we define as the annual amount of property and equipment acquired during the period divided by the annual amount of depreciation, was 0.9 for the twelve months ending September 30, 2014 compared to 1.2 for the twelve months ending September 30, 2013.

Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2014 were primarily for information technology, machinery and equipment and CompuSafe® equipment.

Debt borrowings and repayments
We borrow principally from our revolving credit facilities to meet our cash needs.  Cash provided by financing activities decreased by $49.0 million in the first nine months of 2014 compared to the first nine months of 2013.  This decrease is primarily due to $77.2 million in lower borrowings to fund business needs.  The lower borrowing needs in 2014 compared to 2013 resulted from the sale of an equity interest in Peru for $60 million in 2014, lower capital expenditures and less cash used to fund acquisitions partially offset by higher U.S. pension plan contributions and lower operating profit.  In addition, as described below, we prepaid $43.2 million of our long-term debt in 2014.

Dividends
We paid dividends to Brink’s shareholders of $0.30 per share or $14.5 million in the first nine months of 2014. Dividends paid to shareholders were up slightly from $14.4 million paid to shareholders in the prior year as the number of shares outstanding increased slightly.  Future dividends are dependent on our earnings, financial condition, shareholders’ equity levels, our cash flow and business requirements, as determined by the board of directors.

Capitalization

We use a combination of debt, leases and equity to capitalize our operations.

Tight credit markets in late 2008 and early 2009 resulted in unreliable credit availability under our U.S. armored vehicle master lease agreement and volatile pricing.  As a result, from March 2009 to late 2009, we purchased vehicles with cash borrowed under our committed credit facilities instead of leasing.  In late 2009 as credit markets stabilized, we began to lease vehicles under a new master agreement.  Vehicles acquired under the 2009 master lease agreement are accounted for as capital leases.  Vehicles acquired under the previous lease agreement are accounted for as operating leases based on terms of that agreement.  We expect to continue financing new vehicles in the U.S. using capital leases.

Net Debt is a supplemental Non-GAAP financial measure that is not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP.  We use Net Debt as a measure of our financial leverage.  We believe that investors also may find Net Debt to be helpful in evaluating our financial leverage.  Net Debt should not be considered as an alternative to Debt determined in accordance with GAAP and should be reviewed in conjunction with our consolidated balance sheets.  Set forth above is a reconciliation of Net Debt, a Non-GAAP financial measure, to Debt, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and reported in accordance with GAAP.   Net Debt excluding cash and debt in Venezuelan operations was $331 million at September 30, 2014, and $306 million at December 31, 2013.

Net Debt increased by $100 million primarily due to the adoption of the less favorable SICAD II exchange rate for currency held in Venezuelan bolivars during the first quarter of 2014 and cash contributions made to our primary U.S. pension plan during the first nine months of 2014.  See note 1 and note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for more information.

Liquidity Needs
Our operating liquidity needs are typically financed by cash from operations, short-term debt and the Revolving Facility (our debt facilities are described below). We have certain limitations and considerations related to the cash and borrowing capacity that are reported in our consolidated financial statements.  Based on our current cash on hand, amounts available under our credit facilities and current projections of cash flows from operations, we believe that we will be able to meet our liquidity needs for more than the next twelve months.

Limitations on dividends from foreign subsidiaries.   A significant portion of our operations are outside the U.S. which may make it difficult to repatriate cash for use in the U.S.  See “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our 2013 Form 10-K, for more information on the risks associated with having businesses outside the U.S.

Incremental taxes.  Of the $223.0 million of cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2014, $198.0 million is held by subsidiaries that we consider to be permanently invested and for which we do not expect to repatriate to the U.S.  If we were to decide to repatriate this cash to the U.S., we may have to accrue and pay additional income taxes.  Given the number of foreign operations and the complexities of the tax law, it is not practical to estimate the potential tax liability, but the amount of taxes owed could be material depending on how and when the repatriation were to occur.

Venezuela.  We have $17.6 million of cash and cash equivalents denominated in Venezuelan bolivars (as remeasured at the published SICAD II rate of 50 bolivars to the U.S. dollar) at September 30, 2014.  We believe that the SICAD II process to convert bolivars (as described in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements) will be the primary method for which we are likely to receive U.S. dollars that we need to operate our business and to repatriate earnings.  The Venezuelan government has restricted conversions of bolivars into U.S. dollars in the past and may do so in the future.

Argentina.  We have $12.7 million in cash and cash equivalents denominated in Argentinean pesos at September 30, 2014.  The Argentinean government has, from time-to-time, imposed limits on the exchange of local pesos into U.S. dollars.  As a result, we have elected in the past and may elect in the future to repatriate cash from Argentina using alternative legal methods, which may result in less favorable exchange rates.

Debt
We have a $480 million unsecured revolving bank credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) that matures in January 2017.  The Revolving Facility’s interest rate is based on LIBOR plus a margin or alternate base rate plus a margin.  The Revolving Facility allows us to borrow or issue letters of credit (or otherwise satisfy credit needs) on a revolving basis over the term of the facility. As of September 30, 2014, $235 million was available under the Revolving Facility.  Amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility as of September 30, 2014, were denominated primarily in U.S. dollars and to a lesser extent in euros.

The margin on LIBOR borrowings under the Revolving Facility, which ranges from 0.9% to 1.575% depending on our credit rating, was 1.40% at September 30, 2014.  The margin on alternate base rate borrowings under the Revolving Facility ranges from 0.0% to 0.575%.  We also pay an annual facility fee on the Revolving Facility based on our credit rating.  The facility fee, which ranges from 0.10% to 0.30%, was 0.225% at September 30, 2014.

We have $100 million in unsecured notes issued through a private placement debt transaction (the “Notes”).  The Notes comprise $50 million in series A notes with a fixed interest rate of 4.57% and $50 million in series B notes with a fixed interest rate of 5.20%.  The Notes are due in January 2021, with principal payments under the series A notes to begin in January 2015.

As of September 30, 2014, we had two unsecured multi-currency revolving bank credit facilities totaling $40 million, of which $20 million was available. A $20 million facility expires in December 2015 and a $20 million facility expires in February 2017.  Interest on these facilities is based on LIBOR plus a margin.  The margin ranges from 0.9% to 2.0%.  We also have the ability to borrow from other banks, at the banks’
 
 
45

 
 
discretion, under short-term uncommitted agreements.  Various foreign subsidiaries maintain other lines of credit and overdraft facilities with a number of banks.

We have a $24 million unsecured committed credit facility that expires in April 2016.  Interest on this facility is based on LIBOR plus a margin, which ranges from 1.20% to 1.575%.  As of September 30, 2014, $12 million was available under the facility.

We have three unsecured letter of credit facilities totaling $179 million, of which approximately $67 million was available at September 30, 2014.  An $85 million facility expires in June 2015, a $40 million facility expires in December 2015, and a $54 million facility expires in December 2016.  The Revolving Facility and the multi-currency revolving credit facilities are also used for issuance of letters of credit and bank guarantees.

We redeemed $43.2 million of bonds issued by the Peninsula Ports Authority of Virginia at par in the third quarter of 2014.  The amount paid, including accrued and unpaid interest, was $44.3 million.  Although we were not the primary obligor of the debt, we recorded the obligation as debt because we had guaranteed its payment.  The guarantee originated as part of a former interest in Dominion Terminal Associates (“DTA”), a deep water coal terminal related to our former coal business.

The Revolving Facility, the Notes, the unsecured multi-currency revolving bank credit facilities, the unsecured committed credit facility and the letter of credit facilities contain subsidiary guarantees and various financial and other covenants.  The financial covenants, among other things, limit our total indebtedness, limit priority debt, limit asset sales, limit the use of proceeds from asset sales and provide for minimum coverage of interest costs.  The credit agreements do not provide for the acceleration of payments should our credit rating be reduced.  If we were not to comply with the terms of our various credit agreements, the repayment terms could be accelerated and the commitments could be withdrawn.  An acceleration of the repayment terms under one agreement could trigger the acceleration of the repayment terms under the other loan agreements.  We were in compliance with all financial covenants at September 30, 2014.
 
Equity
At September 30, 2014, we had 100 million shares of common stock authorized and 48.6 million shares issued and outstanding.

Pension benefits provided to eligible U.S. employees were frozen on December 31, 2005, and are not provided to employees hired after 2005 or to those covered by a collective bargaining agreement.  There are approximately 19,800 beneficiaries in the plans.

UMWA Plans
Retirement benefits related to former coal operations include medical benefits provided by the Pittston Coal Group Companies Employee Benefit Plan for UMWA Represented Employees.  There are approximately 4,100 beneficiaries in the UMWA plans.  The company does not expect to make additional contributions to these plans until 2033 based on actuarial assumptions.

Black Lung
Under the Federal Black Lung Benefits Act of 1972, Brink’s is responsible for paying lifetime black lung benefits to miners and their dependents for claims filed and approved after June 30, 1973.  There are approximately 710 black lung beneficiaries.

Other
We have a plan that provides retirement healthcare benefits to certain eligible salaried employees.  Benefits under this plan are not indexed for inflation.

Assumptions for U.S. Retirement Obligations
We have made various assumptions to estimate the amount of payments to be made in the future.  The most significant assumptions include:
·  
Changing discount rates and other assumptions in effect at measurement dates (normally December 31)
·  
Investment returns of plan assets
·  
Contributions to plans from Brink’s including the acceleration of 2015 and 2016 required contributions into 2014
·  
Settlement of obligations to participants
·  
Addition of new participants (historically immaterial due to freezing of pension benefits and exit from coal business)
·  
Mortality rates
·  
Change in laws

The assumptions used to estimate our U.S. retirement obligations can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

New Mortality Data for U.S. Retirement Plans.  The Society of Actuaries issued updated versions of its mortality tables in October 2014.  The new mortality tables reflect increasing life expectancies in the U.S.  We will consider the new data when making mortality rates assumptions
 
 
47

 
 
for our year-end reporting.  We expect that the benefit obligation and future expense for our U.S. retirement plans will significantly increase as a result of the new guidance.

Other Changes in 2014 for the Primary U.S. Pension Plan. We have taken some steps as part of our pension de-risking strategy and to reduce the administrative costs associated with the primary U.S. pension plan.
·  
We accelerated a portion of our required annual contributions in the third quarter.  We contributed $87.2 million to the plan in the first nine months of 2014, including $28.9 million in payments that were not due until 2015 and $31.6 million in payments that were not due until 2016.  Accelerating the 2015 and 2016 contributions will reduce future insurance premiums owed to the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”) – an administrative cost of the plan.
·  
In August 2014, we offered approximately 9,000 terminated participants the option of receiving the value of their pension benefit in a lump-sum payment, or as a reduced annuity.  We believe the action will further reduce the PBGC premiums as a portion of the premiums is based on the number of participants in the plan.  As of the date of this filing, we had not yet completed the tabulation of responses but we expect the plan’s disbursements in December 2014 for these lump-sum elections will range between $120 million and $150 million.  We expect to record a settlement charge in the fourth quarter of 2014 between $50 million and $65 million.  The actual amount of the charge will depend upon the actual return on plan assets and various actuarial assumptions, including discount rate, long-term rate of return on assets, retirement age and mortality at the remeasurement date.
·  
Federal legislation titled Highway and Transportation Funding Act of 2014 (“HATFA”) was passed in August 2014.  HATFA extended one of the key provisions of previous legislation, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century, effectively further spreading the expected funding requirements for our primary U.S. pension plan over a longer period of time.  Because of HATFA and the acceleration of our 2015 and 2016 contributions into 2014, we do not expect to make additional required contributions until 2020.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We serve customers in more than 100 countries, including 43 countries where we operate subsidiaries.  These operations expose us to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.  In addition, we consume various commodities in the normal course of business, exposing us to the effects of changes in the prices of such commodities. These financial and commodity exposures are monitored and managed by us as an integral part of our overall risk management program.  Our risk management program seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of certain markets may have on our operating results.  We have not had any material change in our market risk exposure in the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who is our principal executive officer, and Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), who is our principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based upon that evaluation, as of end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2014, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Incentive Account, as applicable, prior to such Employee’s Termination of Employment.  Such Employee may elect to receive (i) such cash amounts in a single-lump sum distribution on or in equal annual installments (at least two and not more than five) beginning on a nondiscretionary and objectively determinable calendar date (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)); provided, however, that if the aggregate value of the applicable portion of amounts credited to such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account at the time any such installment is due, is less than or equal to the lesser of $25,000 and the limitation calculated in accordance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(v)(B), then such amounts shall be distributed to such Employee in a single-lump sum distribution in a manner that shall comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(v) and (ii) such Units in a single-lump sum distribution on a nondiscretionary and objectively determinable calendar date (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)).  The distribution election(s) described in this Section 8.01 shall be made no later than the corresponding deferral election.  After making such a distribution election, an Employee may subsequently change, at least 12 months prior to the first scheduled distribution under such Employee’s current election (such, date the Initial Distribution), his or her distribution election under this Section 8.01, but such Employee shall not be permitted to change his or her distribution election subsequent to the second such change.  Distributions pursuant to any such subsequent election shall not commence earlier than the fifth anniversary of the Initial Distribution and any such subsequent election shall not become effective prior to the 12-month anniversary of the date such subsequent election is made and shall otherwise comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b).  For the avoidance of doubt, any such subsequent election shall be void and without effect with respect to any payment that would otherwise occur during the 12-month period following the date that such subsequent election is made, and the Employee's election in effect at the time that the subsequent election is made shall instead be applicable with respect to any such payment; provided, however, that, for the avoidance of doubt, a subsequent election shall be applicable with respect to installment payments that are payable after the 12-month period following the date that a such subsequent election is made provided that the Employee specifies that the subsequent election is applicable to each such installment payment.  If an Employee experiences a Disability or dies prior to receiving all such distributions elected pursuant to this Section 8.01, such amounts and/or Units that have not been distributed shall be treated in accordance with Section 8.02 below.
 
(b) The amount of cash to be included in each installment pursuant to this Section 8.01, if applicable, shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the applicable portion of such Employee’s remaining Cash Incentive Account balance subject to such distribution election (i.e., the original amounts deferred under such election together with the amounts credited or debited to such Cash Incentive Account, reduced by the amounts subject to any prior installments) and the denominator of which is equal to the number of remaining installments (including the current installment).
 
(c) Any fractional Units distributed pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall be converted to cash based on the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution and shall be paid in cash.
 
 
 
16

 
 
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Section 8.02, 8.03 or 8.05 becomes applicable (whether or not distribution has commenced) prior to the date of the first scheduled distribution of any deferred amounts and/or Units under this Section 8.01, such provision shall apply instead of this Section 8.01; provided, however, that this Section 8.01 shall continue to apply to any deferred amounts and/or Units after the commencement of distributions hereunder without regard to the potential subsequent application of Section 8.03 or 8.05.  Section 8.02 shall apply in all events notwithstanding this Section 8.01.
 
Section 8.02. Certain Distributions on Death or Disability.  (a)  Each Employee shall receive a distribution in cash and/or Brink’s Stock in respect of all amounts and/or Units (other than Units attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto) standing to the credit of such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and Stock Incentive Accounts, as applicable, as of the date of such Employee’s death or Disability (whether or not distribution shall have previously commenced pursuant to Section 8.01, 8.03 or 8.05), in a single-lump sum distribution as soon as practicable, but no later than 45 days, after the date of such Employee’s death or Disability, as applicable.
 
(b) Any fractional Units distributed pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall be converted to cash based on the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution and shall be paid in cash.
 
(c) In the event of an Employee’s death or Disability after the provisions of Section 8.01, 8.03 or 8.05 have become applicable (whether or not distribution has commenced), this Section 8.02 shall apply in lieu of such Sections with respect to any amounts and/or Units that remain standing to the credit of such Employee’s Incentive Accounts as provided in Section 8.02(a).
 
Section 8.03. Certain Distributions on Termination of Employment.  (a)   In connection with each deferral under the Program made after July 10, 2014, each Employee shall elect to receive (i) distributions in cash in respect of all amounts covered by such deferral election standing to the credit of such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account as of the date of such Employee’s Termination of Employment, in a single-lump sum distribution on the first day that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s Termination of Employment or in equal annual installments (at least two and not more than five) commencing on the first day that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s Termination of Employment, and with each subsequent installment being paid on each anniversary of such date that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s Termination of Employment and (ii) distributions in Brink’s Stock in respect of all Units covered by such deferral election (other than Units attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto) standing to the credit of such Employee’s Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account as of the date of such Employee’s Termination of Employment, in a single-lump sum distribution on the first day that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s
 
 
17

 
 
Termination of Employment.  The distribution election described in this Section 8.03 shall be made no later than the corresponding deferral election.  An Employee may subsequently change, at least 12 months prior to his or her Termination of Employment, such distribution election, but such an Employee shall not be permitted to change his or her distribution election subsequent to the second such change.  Distributions pursuant to any such subsequent election shall not commence earlier than the fifth anniversary of when distributions would have commenced under such Employee’s current election and any such subsequent election shall not become effective prior to the 12-month anniversary of the date the subsequent election is made and shall otherwise comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b).  For the avoidance of doubt, any such subsequent election made during the 12-month period prior to an Employee's Termination of Employment shall be void and without effect with respect to any payment that would otherwise occur during the 12-month period following the date that such subsequent election is made, and the Employee's election in effect at the time that the subsequent election is made shall instead remain applicable with respect to any such payment; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, a subsequent election shall be applicable with respect to installment payments that are payable after the 12-month period following the date that a such subsequent election is made provided that the Employee specifies that the subsequent election is applicable to each such installment payment.  In the event that an Employee fails to clearly and unambiguously elect a form of distribution under this Section 8.03(a) with respect to all or a portion of any amounts standing to the credit of (or to be credited to) such Employee’s Incentive Accounts, such Employee will be deemed to have elected to receive a single-lump sum distribution as provided for pursuant to this Section 8.03(a) with respect thereto.
 
(b) In connection with each deferral election made prior to January 1, 2014 under the Program, for any Termination of Employment, each Employee shall receive distributions in Brink’s Stock in respect of all Units (other than Units attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions (other than Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions) and dividends related thereto) standing to the credit of such Employee’s Pre-2015 Stock Incentive Account in a single-lump sum distribution on the first day that is more than six months after the date of the Employee’s Termination of Employment or in accordance with any applicable distribution election made by such Employee covered by such applicable deferral election prior to January 1, 2014.
 
(c) The amount of cash to be included in each installment pursuant to this Section 8.03, if applicable, shall be a fraction, the numerator of which is equal to the applicable portion of such Employee’s remaining applicable Cash Incentive Account balance subject to such distribution election (i.e., the original amounts deferred under such election together with the amounts credited or debited to such Cash Incentive Account, reduced by the amounts subject to any prior installments) and the denominator of which is equal to the number of remaining installments (including the current installment).
 
 
18

 
 
(d) Any fractional Units distributed pursuant to this Section 8.03 shall be converted to cash based on the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution and shall be paid in cash.
 
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.05 becomes applicable (whether or not distribution has commenced) prior to the applicable Employee’s Termination of Employment, the provisions of Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.05, as applicable, shall apply instead of this Section 8.03; provided, however, that this Section 8.03 shall continue to apply to any deferred amounts and/or Units after the occurrence of such Employee’s Termination of Employment without regard to the potential subsequent application of Section 8.01 or 8.05.  Section 8.02 shall apply in all events notwithstanding this Section 8.03.
 
Section 8.04. Distributions Attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions and Matching Salary Contributions on Termination of Employment.  In the event of an Employee’s (a) death, (b) Retirement, (c) Disability or (d) Termination of Employment for any reason within three years following a Change in Control (other than a Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause), the Employee shall receive a distribution of Brink’s Stock in respect of each Unit standing to the credit of such Employee’s Stock Incentive Accounts attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto in the same manner as provided in Section 8.02 or 8.03, as applicable, for the distribution of the applicable deferred amount that gave rise to the Matching Incentive Contribution, Matching Salary Contribution, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contribution or dividend related thereto that was converted into such Unit.
 
In the event of a Termination of Employment for a reason not described in the preceding paragraph and that is not in connection with a Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause, such Employee shall be vested in the Units standing to the credit of such Employee in his or her Stock Incentive Accounts attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto in accordance with the following schedule:
 
Months Since Initial Program Participation
Vested Percentage
   
less than 36

at least 36 but less than 48
50%
at least 48 but less than 60
75%

100%

An Employee shall receive credit for one month of participation for each calendar month subsequent to the effective date of the Employees initial participation in the Program (without regard to whether such Employee participates in subsequent calendar
 
 
19

 
 
years) through the date of such Employees Termination of Employment; provided, however, if subsequent to an Employees Termination of Employment for any reason, such former Employee again becomes eligible to participate in the Program, any prior credits for months of participation shall be disregarded.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Brinks Stock in respect of each vested Unit standing to the credit of such Employee attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto shall be distributed as provided in Section 8.02 or 8.03, as applicable, and any remaining unvested Units shall be forfeited; provided further, that any such distribution pursuant to Section 8.03 shall be pursuant to an election made by such Employee as provided for under Section 8.03 in respect of Units deferred under the Program.  For the avoidance of doubt, an Employee shall always be vested in any Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions that are not Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions.
 
Section 8.05. Distribution Following a Change in Control.  (a)  In the event of a 409A Change in Control, each Employee shall receive a single-lump sum distribution in cash and/or Brink’s Stock (or stock of the successor to the Company, if any) in respect of all amounts and/or Units (other than Units attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto) standing to the credit of such Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and Post-2014 Stock Incentive Account, as applicable, on the earlier of (i) the date that is 15 months from the 409A Change in Control and (ii) the date (the “Specified Distribution Date”) specified in any applicable deferral election of the Employee, but only to the extent that such Specified Distribution Date is within 12 months from the 409A Change in Control; provided, however, such Employee may, with respect to each deferral election under the Program made on or after July 10, 2014, elect prior to the earlier of (A) the date that is three months after the occurrence of the 409A Change in Control and (B) the date that is at least 12 months prior to the Specified Distribution Date designated by the Employee in any applicable deferral election, to receive the amounts and/or Units subject to such deferral election in a single-lump sum distribution or, in the case of amounts subject to such deferral elections only, in equal annual installments (at least two and not more than five) commencing no earlier than the fifth anniversary of the date such amounts and/or Units would have been distributed absent such election, and each such distribution election shall otherwise comply with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b).
 
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03 becomes applicable (whether or not distribution has commenced) prior to a 409A Change in Control, the provisions of Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03, as applicable, shall apply instead of this Section 8.05; provided, however, that this Section 8.05 shall continue to apply to any deferred amounts and/or Units after the occurrence of a 409A Change in Control without regard to the potential subsequent application of Section 8.01 or 8.03.  Section 8.02 shall apply in all events notwithstanding this Section 8.05.
 
Section 8.06. Unforeseeable Emergencies.  An Employee who experiences an Unforeseeable Emergency may petition the Company to receive a partial or full payout
 
 
20

 
 
from his or her Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Accounts to the extent permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(3).  Such payout, if any, shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Unforeseeable Emergency, plus amounts necessary to pay Federal, state, local or foreign income taxes or penalties reasonably anticipated as a result of such distribution, but after taking into account any additional compensation available by canceling deferral elections as permitted under the Program or any other non-qualified deferred compensation plan in which the Employee participates.  An Employee shall not be eligible to receive a payout according to this Section 8.06 to the extent that such a payout would not be permitted by Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(3) or the Unforeseeable Emergency is or may be relieved (a) through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, (b) by liquidation of the Employee’s assets, to the extent the liquidation of such assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship or (c) by cessation of deferrals under the Program.
 
Section 8.07. Changes to and Cancelations of Deferral Elections.  Any election to defer under the Program shall be irrevocable, in the case of (a) amounts under the Program for any Year, (i) on and after the first day of such Year or (ii) in the case of an election made by a newly hired Employee for his or her initial Year of employment, after the date such an election is made and (b) Cash Performance Payments under the Program for any Performance Measurement Period, after the last date for making such an election, as specified in the second or third sentence of Section 6.03, above, as applicable (it being understood that an Employee may only change any such election prior to its becoming irrevocable in accordance with procedures established by the Company).  After such election has become irrevocable, an Employee may only subsequently change such election consistent with this Article 8 and Code Section 409A but may, in compliance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(j)(4)(viii), cancel any such election.
 
Section 8.08. Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause.  In the event of a Termination of Employment by the Company for Cause, the Employee shall forfeit all of the Units standing to the credit of the Employee’s Stock Incentive Accounts attributable to Matching Incentive Contributions, Matching Salary Contributions, Post-2014 Matching Supplemental Savings Plan Contributions and dividends related thereto.
 
Section 8.09. Installment Payments.  For purposes of Section 409A, each installment payment provided for under this Article 8 will be deemed to be a separate payment as permitted under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii).
 
ARTICLE 9    
 
Designation of Beneficiary
 
An Employee may designate in a written election filed with the Company a beneficiary or beneficiaries (which may be an entity other than a natural person) to receive all distributions and payments under the Program after the Employees death.  Any such designation may be revoked, and a new election may be made, at any time and from time to time, by the Employee without the consent of any beneficiary.  If the
 
 
21

 
 
Employee designates more than one beneficiary, any distributions and payments to such beneficiaries shall be made in equal percentages unless the Employee has designated otherwise, in which case the distributions and payments shall be made in the percentages designated by the Employee.  If no beneficiary has been named by the Employee or no beneficiary survives the Employee, the remaining amounts and/or Shares (including fractional Shares) in the Employees Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Accounts shall be distributed or paid in a single lump-sum sum to the Employees estate.  All distributions from an Employees Stock Incentive Accounts shall be made in Shares except that fractional Shares shall be paid in cash.
 
ARTICLE 10   
 
Miscellaneous
 
Section 10.01. Nontransferability of Benefits.  Except as provided in Article 9, amounts and/or Units credited to a Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Account shall not be transferable by an Employee or former Employee (or his or her beneficiaries) other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a domestic relations order.  No Employee, no person claiming through such Employee, nor any other person shall have any right or interest under the Program, or in its continuance, in the payment of any amount or distribution of any amounts and/or Shares under the Program, unless and until all the provisions of the Program, any determination made by the Committee thereunder, and any restrictions and limitations on the payment itself have been fully complied with.  Except as provided in this Section 10.01, no rights under the Program, contingent or otherwise, shall be transferable, assignable or subject to any pledge or encumbrance of any nature, nor shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be obligated, except as otherwise required by law, to recognize or give effect to any such transfer, assignment, pledge or encumbrance.
 
Section 10.02. Notices.  The Company may require all elections contemplated by the Program to be made on forms provided by it.  All notices, elections and other communications pursuant to the Program shall be effective when received by the Company either, in the Company’s sole discretion, via electronic delivery through a Company email system or by reference to a location on a Company intranet or secure internet site to which the Employee has access or in writing delivered to the following address:
 
 
The Brinks Company
 
1801 Bayberry Court
 
P. O. Box 18100
 
Richmond, VA 23226-8100
 
Attention of Vice President Chief Human Resources Officer
 
Section 10.03. Limitation on Rights of Employee.  Nothing in the Program shall be deemed to create, on the part of any Employee, beneficiary or other person, (a) any interest of any kind in the assets of the Company or (b) any trust or fiduciary relationship in relation to the Company.  The right of an Employee to receive any amounts and/or
 
 
22

 
 
Shares shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.
 
Section 10.04. No Contract of Employment.  The benefits provided under the Program for an Employee shall be in addition to, and in no way preclude, other forms of compensation to or in respect of such Employee.  However, the selection of any Employee for participation in the Program shall not give such Employee any right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries for any period.  The right of the Company and of each such Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any Employee for any reason or at any time is specifically reserved.  In addition, designation of an Employee as a participant for one Year does not create any right to participation or expectation that the Committee will designate the Employee as a participant in any subsequent Year.
 
Section 10.05. Withholding.  All distributions pursuant to the Program shall be subject to withholding in respect of income and other taxes required by law to be withheld.  The Company shall establish appropriate procedures to ensure payment or withholding of such taxes.  Such procedures may include arrangements for payment or withholding of taxes by retaining Shares otherwise issuable in accordance with the provisions of the Program or by accepting already owned Shares, and by applying the fair market value of such Shares to the withholding taxes payable.  The value of the Brink’s Stock distributed to an Employee pursuant to the Program shall, for purposes of income taxes and all other applicable taxes, be considered equal to the per share reported closing price of Brink’s Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the final trading day immediately preceding the date of distribution.
 
Section 10.06. Amendment and Termination.  The Committee may from time to time amend any of the provisions of the Program, or may at any time terminate the Program.  No amendment or termination shall adversely affect any Units (or distributions in respect thereof) which shall theretofore have been credited to any Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Accounts.  On the termination of the Program, distributions from an Employee’s Cash Incentive Account and/or Stock Incentive Accounts shall be made in compliance with Code Section 409A and Treasury Regulations issued thereunder.
