FOR THE FISCAL YEARS ENDED
JULY 2, 2017
,
JULY 3, 2016
AND
JUNE 28, 2015
(1) Nature of Operations:
Briggs & Stratton Corporation (the “Company”) is a U.S. based producer of gasoline engines and outdoor power equipment. The Company’s Engines segment sells engines worldwide, primarily to original equipment manufacturers of lawn & garden equipment and other gasoline engine powered equipment. The Company’s Products segment designs, manufacturers and markets a wide range of outdoor power equipment, job site products, and related accessories.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Fiscal Year:
The Company’s fiscal year consists of 52 or 53 weeks, ending on the Sunday nearest the last day of June in each year. The 2017 and 2015 fiscal years were each 52 weeks long, and the 2016 fiscal year was 53 weeks long. All references to years relate to fiscal years rather than calendar years.
Principles of Consolidation:
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. Investments in companies for which we have significant influence are accounted for by the equity method.
Accounting Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
This caption includes cash, commercial paper and certificates of deposit. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Receivables:
Receivables are recorded at their original carrying value less reserves for estimated uncollectible accounts. The Company estimates and records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specific identification and historical experience. The Company writes off uncollectible accounts against the allowance for doubtful accounts after all collection efforts have been exhausted.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at cost, which does not exceed market. The last-in, first-out (LIFO) method was used for determining the cost of approximately
51%
of total inventories at
July 2, 2017
and
49%
at
July 3, 2016
. The cost for the remaining inventories was determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. If the FIFO inventory valuation method had been used exclusively, inventories would have been
$63.0 million
and
$61.5 million
higher at the end of fiscal
2017
and
2016
, respectively. The LIFO inventory adjustment was determined on an overall basis, and accordingly, each class of inventory reflects an allocation based on the FIFO amounts.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets:
Goodwill reflects the cost of acquisitions in excess of the fair values assigned to identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is assigned to reporting units based upon the expected benefit of the synergies of the acquisition.
Other Intangible Assets reflect identifiable intangible assets that arose from purchase acquisitions. Other Intangible Assets are primarily comprised of tradenames, patents and customer relationships. Goodwill and tradenames, which are considered to have indefinite lives, are not amortized; however, both must be tested for impairment at least annually. Amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis for other intangible assets with finite lives. Patents have been assigned an estimated useful life of
15
years. The customer relationships have been assigned an estimated useful life of
14
to
25
years.
The Company performed the required impairment tests in fiscal
2017
,
2016
and
2015
. There were no goodwill impairment charges or other intangible asset impairment charges recorded in fiscal 2017 or fiscal 2015. The Company recorded non-cash goodwill impairment charges and non-cash intangible asset impairment charges
in fiscal 2016. Refer to Note 7 for a discussion of the non-cash goodwill impairment charges and the non-cash intangible asset impairment charges recorded in fiscal 2016.
Investments:
Investments represent the Company’s investments in unconsolidated affiliated companies.
Financial information of the unconsolidated affiliated companies are accounted for by the equity method, generally on a lag of one month or less. Combined results of operations of unconsolidated affiliated companies for the fiscal year (in thousands):

Net sales to equity method investees were approximately
$113.6 million
,
$98.9 million
and
$60.1 million
in
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively. Purchases of finished products from equity method investees were approximately
$94.9 million
,
$112.2 million
and
$104.7 million
in
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively.
Beginning in fiscal 2014, the Company joined with one of its independent distributors to form Power Distributors, LLC (the venture) to distribute service parts in the United States. During fiscal years 2014 through 2016, the venture acquired other independent distributors. During fiscal 2016, the Company contributed
$19.1 million
in cash as well as non-cash assets in exchange for receiving an additional ownership interest in the venture. Also during fiscal 2016, the venture achieved a national distribution network. The Company uses the equity method to account for this investment, and the earnings of the unconsolidated affiliate are allocated between the Engines and Products segments. As of
July 2, 2017
and
July 3, 2016
, the Company's total investment in the venture was
$27.4 million
and
$29.5 million
, respectively, and its ownership percentage was
38.0%
. The Company's equity method investments also include entities that are suppliers for the Engines segment.
The Company concluded that its equity method investments are integral to its business. The equity method investments provide manufacturing and distribution functions, which are important parts of its operations. Beginning with the third quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company is prospectively classifying its equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates as a separate line item within Income from Operations. For periods prior to the third quarter of fiscal 2016, equity in earnings from unconsolidated affiliates is classified in Other Income, Net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
During fiscal 2016, the Company had an investment in marketable securities, which related to its ownership of common stock of a publicly-traded company. The Company classified its investment as available-for-sale
securities, and it was reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses, net of the related tax effects, were reported as a separate component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss). During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company sold its investment in marketable securities and recognized a gain of
$3.3 million
, which is recorded in Other Income, Net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company received proceeds related to the sale in the first quarter of fiscal 2017.
Debt Issuance Costs:
Direct and incremental costs incurred in obtaining loans or in connection with the issuance of long-term debt are capitalized and amortized to interest expense over the terms of the related credit agreements. The debt issuance costs are recorded as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the debt liability; however, the Company classifies debt issuance costs related to the revolving credit facility as an asset, regardless of whether it has any outstanding borrowings on the line of credit arrangements. Approximately
$0.9 million
,
$0.9 million
and
$1.0 million
of debt issuance costs and original issue discounts were amortized to interest expense during fiscal years
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively.
Plant and Equipment and Depreciation:
Plant and equipment are stated at historical cost. For financial reporting purposes, plant and equipment are depreciated primarily by the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets which generally range from
3
to
10
years for software, from
20
to
40
years for land improvements, from
20
to
50
years for buildings, and
3
to
20
years for machinery and equipment. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments, which significantly extend the useful lives of existing plant and equipment, are capitalized and depreciated. Upon retirement or disposition of plant and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in cost of goods sold or engineering, selling, general and administrative expenses.
Depreciation expense was approximately
$51.9 million
,
$50.0 million
and
$48.5 million
during fiscal years
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively.
Impairment of Property, Plant and Equipment:
Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the related asset or group of assets, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying value of the asset or group of assets. Refer to Note 17 for impairments associated with restructuring actions.
Warranty:
The Company recognizes the cost associated with its standard warranty on engines and products at the time of sale. The general warranty period begins at the time of sale and typically covers
two
years, but may vary due to product type and geographic location. The amount recognized is based on historical failure rates and current claim cost experience. The following is a reconciliation of the changes in accrued warranty costs for the reporting period (in thousands):

Revenue Recognition:
Net sales include sales of engines, products, and related service parts and accessories, net of allowances for cash discounts, customer volume rebates and discounts, floor plan interest and advertising allowances. The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. This is generally upon shipment. Prior to fiscal 2017, revenue for certain international shipments was recognized when the customer received the product.
Included in net sales are costs associated with programs under which the Company shares the expense of financing certain dealer and distributor inventories, referred to as floor plan expense. This represents interest for a pre-established length of time based on a variable rate (LIBOR) plus a fixed percentage from a contract with a third party financing source for dealer and distributor inventory purchases. Sharing the cost of these
financing arrangements is used by the Company as a marketing incentive for customers to purchase the Company's products to have floor stock for end users to purchase. The Company enters into interest rate swaps to hedge cash flows for a portion of its interest rate risk. The financing costs, net of the related gain or loss on interest rate swaps, are recorded at the time of sale as a reduction of net sales. Included in net sales in fiscal
2017
,
2016
and
2015
were financing costs, net of the related gain or loss on interest rate swaps, of
$7.3 million
,
$6.6 million
and
$6.0 million
, respectively.
The Company also offers a variety of customer rebates and sales incentives. The Company records estimates for rebates and incentives at the time of sale, as a reduction in net sales.
Income Taxes:
The provision for income taxes includes federal, state and foreign income taxes currently payable and those deferred because of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The deferred income tax asset and liability represent temporary differences relating to assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized.
Retirement Plans:
The Company has noncontributory, defined benefit retirement plans and postretirement benefit plans covering certain employees. Retirement benefits represent a form of deferred compensation, which are subject to change due to changes in assumptions. Management reviews underlying assumptions on an annual basis. Refer to Note 16.
Research and Development Costs:
Expenditures relating to the development of new products and processes, including significant improvements and refinements to existing products, are expensed as incurred and recorded in engineering, selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amounts charged against income were
$23.0 million
,
$20.0 million
and
$19.9 million
in fiscal
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively.
Advertising Costs:
Advertising costs, included in engineering, selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Statements of Operations, are expensed as incurred. These expenses totaled
$19.0 million
in fiscal
2017
,
$18.0 million
in fiscal
2016
and
$17.5 million
in fiscal
2015
.
Shipping and Handling Fees:
Revenue received from shipping and handling fees is reflected in net sales and related shipping costs are recorded in cost of goods sold. Shipping fee revenue for fiscal
2017
,
2016
and
2015
was
$5.0 million
,
$5.2 million
and
$6.6 million
, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translation:
Foreign currency balance sheet accounts are translated into dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at fiscal year-end. Income and expenses incurred in a foreign currency are translated at the average rates of exchange in effect during the year. The related translation adjustments are made directly to a separate component of Shareholders’ Investment. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in the results of operations in the period incurred. The Company recorded pre-tax foreign currency transaction gains of
$0.8 million
,
$2.6 million
, and
$3.7 million
during fiscal
2017
,
2016
, and
2015
, respectively.
Earnings Per Share:
The Company computes earnings per share using the two-class method, an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. The Company’s unvested grants of restricted stock, restricted stock units, and deferred stock awards contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends (whether paid or unpaid), which are required to be treated as participating securities and included in the computation of basic earnings per share.
Information on earnings per share is as follows (in thousands except per share data):

The dilutive effect of the potential exercise of outstanding stock-based awards to acquire common shares is calculated using the treasury stock method. The following options to purchase shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common shares, and their inclusion in the computation would be antidilutive:

Derivative Instruments & Hedging Activity:
The Company enters into derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges to manage certain interest rate, foreign currency and commodity exposures. Company policy allows derivatives to be used only for identifiable exposures and, therefore, the Company does not enter into derivative instruments for trading purposes where the sole objective is to generate profits.
The Company formally designates the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure and documents both the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge. The Company formally assesses, both at the inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in the forecasted cash flows of the related underlying exposure. Because of the high degree of effectiveness between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure being hedged, fluctuations in the value of the derivative instruments are generally offset by changes in the forecasted cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. Derivative financial instruments are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. The effective portion of gains or losses on derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are reported as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) (AOCI) and reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion of a financial instrument’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings.
The Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when it determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting cash flows attributable to the hedged risk, the derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, the cash flow hedge is dedesignated because a forecasted transaction is not probable of occurring, or management determines to remove the designation of the cash flow hedge.
In all situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued and the derivative remains outstanding, the Company continues to carry the derivative at its fair value on the balance sheet and recognizes any subsequent changes in its fair value in earnings. When it is probable that a forecasted transaction will not
occur, the Company discontinues hedge accounting and recognizes immediately in earnings gains and losses that were accumulated in other comprehensive income related to the hedging relationship.
(3) New Accounting Pronouncements:
In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. Under the amendments in ASU 2017-04, an entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The updated guidance requires a prospective adoption. The guidance is effective beginning fiscal year 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this new accounting pronouncement on its results of operations and financial position.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The ASU was issued as part of the FASB Simplification Initiative and involves several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective beginning fiscal year 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted this ASU as of July 2, 2017. Prior to the adoption of the ASU, excess tax benefits or expense related to stock-based compensation transactions were recognized in “Additional paid-in capital” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Following the adoption of the ASU, all excess tax benefits or expense related to stock-based compensation transactions are recognized prospectively, including for the entire year of adoption, as income tax benefits or expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and are prospectively included in cash flows from operating activities on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as a component of “Net Income.” In addition, the Company retrospectively adopted the presentation requirements for cash flows related to employee taxes paid for withheld shares as a financing activity on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Certain qualitative and quantitative disclosures are required, as well as a modified retrospective recognition and measurement of impacted leases. The guidance is effective beginning fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this new accounting pronouncement on its results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (ASU No. 2016-01). ASU No. 2016-01 enhances the existing financial instruments reporting model by modifying fair value measurement tools, simplifying impairment assessments for certain equity instruments, and modifying overall presentation and disclosure requirements. The guidance is effective beginning fiscal year 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect the impact of adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.
In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (Topic 740). Prior guidance required an entity to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in a classified statement of financial position; however, the new guidance requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. This guidance is effective beginning fiscal year 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted this ASU as of July 2, 2017. As discussed in Note 8, the Company retrospectively reclassified current “Deferred Income Tax Assets" to "Long-term Deferred Income Tax Assets” on the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet as of July 3, 2016. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Topic 606 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. This guidance is effective beginning fiscal year 2019 under either full or modified retrospective adoption. The Company has begun its assessment of Topic 606 and has developed a comprehensive project plan that includes representatives from across the Company’s business. The project plan includes analyzing the standard’s impact on the Company’s various revenue streams, comparing its historical accounting policies and practices to the requirements of the new standard, and identifying potential differences from applying the requirements of the new standard to its contracts. The Company is in the process of identifying and implementing appropriate changes to its business processes, systems and controls to support revenue recognition and disclosures under Topic 606. As of July 2, 2017, and subject to the potential effects of any new related ASUs issued by the FASB, as well as the Company’s ongoing evaluation of transactions and contracts, the Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company anticipates adopting Topic 606 at the beginning of fiscal year 2019 using the modified retrospective approach.

(6) Fair Value:
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value:
The following guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels:
Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-driven valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3: Significant inputs to the valuation model are unobservable.
The following table presents information about the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of
July 2, 2017
and
July 3, 2016

The fair value for Level 2 measurements are based upon the respective quoted market prices for comparable instruments in active markets, which include current market pricing for forward purchases of commodities, foreign currency forwards, and current interest rates.
The Company has currently chosen not to elect the fair value option for any items that are not already required to be measured at fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The Company believes that the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payable are reasonable estimates of their fair values at July 2, 2017 and July 3, 2016 due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The estimated fair value of the 6.875% Senior Notes due December 2020 is based on quoted market prices for similar instruments and is, therefore, classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

At
July 2, 2017
,
July 3, 2016
and
June 28, 2015
, accumulated goodwill impairment losses, as recorded in the Products segment, were
$131.4 million
,
$131.4 million
and
$123.7 million
respectively.
The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at least annually as of the fiscal year-end and more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. For the goodwill evaluation for one reporting unit, the Company first determines based on a qualitative assessment whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. For other reporting units or if the Company's qualitative assessment conclusion is that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company will test goodwill using a two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is to identify a potential impairment by comparing the carrying values of each of the Company's reporting units to their estimated fair values as of the test dates. The estimates of fair value of the reporting units are computed using either an income approach, a market approach, or a combination of both. The income approach utilizes a multi-year forecast of estimated cash flows and a terminal value at the end of the cash flow period. The forecast period assumptions consist of internal projections that are based on the Company's budget and long-range strategic plan. The discount rate used at the test date is the weighted-average cost of capital which reflects the overall level of inherent risk of the reporting unit and the rate of return an outside investor would expect to earn. Valuations using the market approach are derived from metrics of publicly traded companies or historically completed transactions of comparable businesses. The selection of comparable businesses is based on the markets in which the reporting units operate giving consideration to risk profiles, size, geography, and diversity of products and services.
If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its book value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not deemed impaired and the second step of the impairment test is not performed. If the book value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the estimated fair value of the reporting unit to the estimated fair value of its existing tangible assets and liabilities as well as existing identified intangible assets and previously unrecognized intangible assets in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation. The unallocated portion of the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is the implied fair value of goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s
goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess.
In fiscal 2016, the Company recorded a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $
7.7 million
related to its Job Site reporting unit, which was determined by comparing the carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the implied fair value of goodwill for the reporting unit. The Company reached this conclusion because it determined that its forecasted cash flow estimates used in the goodwill assessment for its Job Site reporting unit were adversely impacted by elevated channel inventories. The inventory channel for job site products, particularly portable light towers and portable heaters, was elevated due to the rapid and significant change in market demand following the reduction in North American oil production and was compounded by the mild winter. The impairment charge was a non-cash expense that was recorded as a separate component of operating expenses. The goodwill impairment was not deductible for income tax purposes. The impairment charge did not adversely affect the Company’s debt position, cash flow, liquidity or compliance with financial covenants under its revolving credit facility.
The Company’s other intangible assets as of
July 2, 2017

July 3, 2016

The Company also performs an impairment test of its indefinite-lived intangible assets as of the fiscal year-end and more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. For purposes of the indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment analysis, the Company performs its assessment of fair value based on an income approach using the relief-from-royalty method. The Company determines the fair value of each tradename by applying a royalty rate to a projection of net sales discounted using a risk adjusted cost of capital. Sales growth rates are determined after considering current and future economic conditions, recent sales trends, discussions with customers, planned timing of new product launches and many other variables. Each royalty rate is based on profitability of the business to which it relates and observed market royalty rates.
In fiscal 2016, the Company recorded a non-cash intangible asset impairment charge of
$2.7 million
. The impairment charge did not adversely affect the Company’s debt position, cash flow, liquidity or compliance with financial covenants under its revolving credit facility.
Amortization expense of other intangible assets amounted to approximately
$3.5 million
in
2017
,
$3.4 million
in
2016
, and
$2.8 million
in
2015
.

Total deferred tax assets were
$171.3 million
and
$200.3 million
as of
July 2, 2017
and
July 3, 2016
, respectively. Total deferred tax liabilities were
$106.9 million
and
$102.1 million
as of
July 2, 2017
and
July 3, 2016
, respectively. During fiscal
2017
, the total valuation allowance increased by
$4.1 million
. The Company early adopted ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (see Note 3) as of July 2, 2017. The Company retrospectively reclassified
$44.7 million
of current “Deferred Income Tax Assets" to "Long-term Deferred Income Tax Assets” on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of July 3, 2016.
Deferred tax assets were generated during the current year as a result of foreign income tax loss carryforwards in the amount of
$1.9 million
. At
July 2, 2017
, there are
$7.5 million
of foreign income tax loss carryforwards, consisting of
$5.3 million
that have no expiration date, and
$2.2 million
that will expire within the next
5
to
10
years. A deferred tax asset of
$18.9 million
exists at
July 2, 2017
related to state income tax losses and state tax credit carryforwards. If not utilized against future taxable income, this amount will expire from
2018 through 2028
. Realization of the deferred tax assets are contingent upon generating sufficient taxable income prior to expiration of these carryforwards. At
July 2, 2017
, a valuation allowance of
$7.5 million
is recorded for the foreign losses which the Company believes are unlikely to be realized in the future. In addition, a valuation allowance of
$15.9 million
is recorded related to state tax credits that are unlikely to be realized.
The Company does not record deferred income taxes applicable to undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which the Company intends to reinvest such earnings indefinitely outside of the U.S. The undistributed earnings that the Company intends to reinvest amounted to approximately
$88.6 million
at
July 2, 2017
. If the Company were to distribute these earnings, foreign tax credits may become available under current law to reduce the resulting U.S. income tax. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability related to these earnings is not practicable.
The change to the gross unrecognized tax benefits of the Company during the fiscal years ended
July 2, 2017
,
July 3, 2016
, and June 28, 2015 is reconciled as follows:

As of
July 2, 2017
, gross unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate were
$4.7 million
. There is a reasonable possibility that approximately
$1.0 million
of the liability for uncertain tax positions may be settled within the next twelve months due to the resolution of audits or expiration of statutes of limitations.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. The total expense (income) recognized for fiscal years
2017
,
2016
and
2015
was
$(0.2) million
,
$0.2 million
, and
$0.1 million
, respectively.
As of
July 2, 2017
and
July 3, 2016
, the Company had
$1.2 million
and
$1.4 million
, respectively, accrued for the payment of interest and penalties.
At
July 2, 2017
and
July 3, 2016
, the liability for uncertain tax positions, inclusive of interest and penalties, was
$7.2 million
and
$12.3 million
, respectively, which is recorded as an other long-term liability within the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Income tax returns are filed in the U.S., state, and foreign jurisdictions and related audits occur on a regular basis. In the U.S., the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations before fiscal 2013. The Company is currently under audit by various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to tax examinations before fiscal 2007 in its major foreign jurisdictions.

6.875% Senior Notes
On
December 20, 2010
, the Company issued
$225 million
of
6.875%
Senior Notes ("Senior Notes") due
December 15, 2020
. During fiscal 2016, the Company repurchased
$1.9 million
of the Senior Notes after receiving unsolicited offers from bondholders.
Multicurrency Credit Agreement
On
March 25, 2016
, the Company entered into a
$500 million
amended and restated multicurrency credit agreement (the “Revolver”) that matures on
March 25, 2021
. The Revolver amended and restated the Company's
$500 million
multicurrency credit agreement dated as of
October 13, 2011
(as previously amended), which would have matured on
October 21, 2018
. The initial maximum availability under the Revolver is
$500 million
. Availability under the Revolver is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. The Company may from time to time increase the maximum availability under the revolving credit facility by up to
$250 million
if certain conditions are satisfied. In connection with the amendment to the Revolver in fiscal 2016, the Company incurred approximately
$0.9 million
in new debt issuance costs, which are being amortized over the life of the Revolver using the straight-line method. The Company classifies debt issuance costs related to the Revolver as an asset, regardless of whether it has any outstanding borrowings on the line of credit arrangements. There were no borrowings under the revolving credit facility as of July 2, 2017 and July 3, 2016.
Borrowings under the Revolver by the Company bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at its option, either:
(1) a 1, 2, 3 or 6 month LIBOR rate plus a margin varying from
1.25%
to
2.25%
, depending on the Company’s average net leverage ratio; or
(2) the higher of (a) the federal funds rate plus
0.50%
; (b) the bank's prime rate; or (c) the adjusted LIBO rate for a one-month interest period plus
1.00%
plus a margin varying from
0.25%
to
1.25%
. In addition, the Company is subject to a
0.18%
to
0.35%
commitment fee and a
1.25%
to
2.25%
letter of credit fee, depending on the Company’s average net leverage ratio.
The Revolver contains covenants that the Company considers usual and customary for an agreement of this type, including a maximum average leverage ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio.
The Senior Notes and the Revolver contain restrictive covenants. These covenants include restrictions on the ability of the Company and/or certain subsidiaries to pay dividends, repurchase equity interests of the Company and certain subsidiaries, incur indebtedness, create liens, consolidate and merge and dispose of assets, and enter into transactions with affiliates. The Revolver contains financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and impose on the Company a maximum average leverage ratio.

(13) Commitments and Contingencies:
The Company is subject to various unresolved legal actions that arise in the normal course of its business. These actions typically relate to product liability (including asbestos-related liability), patent and trademark matters, and disputes with customers, suppliers, distributors and dealers, competitors and employees.
On May 14, 2010, the Company notified retirees and certain retirement eligible employees of various amendments to the Company-sponsored retiree medical plans intended to better align the plans offered to both hourly and salaried retirees. On August 16, 2010, a putative class of retirees who retired prior to August 1, 2006 and the United Steel Workers filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin (Merrill, Weber, Carpenter, et al.; United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union, AFL-CIO/CLC v. Briggs & Stratton Corporation; Group Insurance Plan of Briggs & Stratton Corporation; and Does 1 through 20, Docket No. 10-C-0700), contesting the Company's right to make these changes. In mid-December 2015, the parties agreed in principle to settle this case for an aggregate payment of
$3.95 million
covering both claimed benefits and plaintiffs’ attorneys fees, which resulted in a contribution of
$1.975 million
from the Company and
$1.975 million
from a third party insurance provider. The Company recorded a total charge of
$1.975 million
as Engineering, Selling, General and Administrative Expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 related to this matter. The parties filed a signed Stipulation of Settlement with the court on April 12, 2016 and the court held a hearing on the fairness, reasonableness and adequacy of the terms and conditions of the settlement and on the fee petition of the plaintiffs' counsel on August 11, 2016. The court approved the settlement following that hearing.
On May 12, 2010, Exmark Manufacturing Company, Inc. filed suit against Briggs & Stratton Power Products Group, LLC (“BSPPG”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company that was subsequently merged with and into the Company on January 1, 2017 (Case No. 8:10CV187, U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska), alleging that certain Ferris® and Snapper Pro® mower decks infringed an Exmark mower deck patent.
Exmark sought damages relating to sales since May 2004, attorneys’ fees, and enhanced damages. As a result of a reexamination proceeding in 2012, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) initially rejected the asserted Exmark claims as invalid. However, in 2014, that decision was reversed by the USPTO on appeal by Exmark. Following discovery, each of BSPPG and Exmark filed several motions for summary judgment in the Nebraska district court, which were decided on July 28, 2015. The court concluded that older mower deck designs infringed Exmark’s patent, leaving for trial the issues of whether current designs infringed, the amount of damages, and whether any infringement was willful.
The trial began on September 8, 2015, and on September 18, 2015, the jury returned its verdict, finding that BSPPG’s current mower deck designs do not infringe the Exmark patent. As to the older designs, the jury awarded Exmark
$24.3 million
in damages and found that the infringement was willful, allowing the judge to enhance the jury’s damages award post-trial by up to three times. Also on September 18, 2015, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit issued its decision in an unrelated case, SCA Hygiene Products Aktiebolag SCA Personal Care, Inc. v. First Quality Baby Products, LLC, et al. (Case No. 2013-1564) (“SCA”), confirming the availability of laches as a defense to patent infringement claims. Laches is an equitable doctrine that may bar a patent owner from obtaining damages prior to commencing suit, in circumstances in which the owner knows or should have known its patent was being infringed for more than six years. Although the court in the Exmark case ruled before trial that BSPPG could not rely on the defense of laches, as a result of the subsequent SCA decision, the court held a bench trial on that defense on October 21 and 22, 2015. On May 2, 2016, the United States Supreme Court agreed to review the SCA decision.
The parties submitted post-trial motions and briefing related to: damages; willfulness; laches; attorney fees; enhanced damages; and prejudgment/post-judgment interest and costs. All post-trial motions and briefing were completed on December 18, 2015. On May 11, 2016, the court ruled on those post-trial motions and entered judgment against BSPPG and in favor of Exmark in the amount of
$24.3 million
in compensatory damages, an additional
$24.3 million
in enhanced damages, and
$1.5 million
in pre-judgment interest along with post-judgment interest and costs to be determined. The Company strongly disagrees with the jury verdict, certain rulings made before and during trial, and the May 11, 2016 post-trial rulings. BSPPG appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit on several bases, including the issues of obviousness and invalidity of Exmark’s patent, the damages calculation, willfulness and laches.
Following briefing of the appeal and prior to oral argument, the United States Supreme Court overturned the SCA decision, ruling that laches is not available in a patent infringement case for damages. That ruling eliminated laches as one basis for BSPPG’s appeal of the Exmark case. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held a hearing on the remainder of BSPPG’s appeal on April 5, 2017 and has not yet issued its decision.
In assessing whether the Company should accrue a liability in its financial statements as a result of the May 11, 2016 post-trial rulings and related matters, the Company considered various factors, including the legal and factual circumstances of the case, the trial record, the post-trial orders, the current status of the proceedings, applicable law, the views of legal counsel, and the likelihood of successful appeals. As a result of this review, the Company has concluded that a loss from this case is not probable and reasonably estimable at this time and, therefore, a liability has not been recorded with respect to this case as of July 2, 2017.
Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the outcome of these and other unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss, the Company believes the unresolved legal actions will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
(14) Stock Incentives:
Effective October 20, 2004, a total of
8,000,000
shares of common stock (as adjusted for the fiscal 2005
2
-for-1 stock split) were originally reserved for future issuance pursuant to the Company's Incentive Compensation Plan, and as a result of an amendment approved by shareholders on October 21, 2009 an additional
2,481,494
shares were reserved. On October 15, 2014, the Company's shareholders approved the 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which constituted a complete amendment and restatement of the Company's Incentive Compensation Plan and under which
3,760,000
shares of common stock were reserved for future issuance (plus any shares remaining available for issuance under the Incentive Compensation Plan as of that date). Similar to the Incentive Compensation Plan, in accordance with the 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan, the
Company can issue to eligible participants stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units and other stock-based and cash bonus awards subject to certain annual limitations. The plans also allow participants to defer the payment of awards and the Company to issue directors’ fees in stock. Stock-based compensation vests in accordance with the applicable plan and award agreements but can become immediately exercisable upon eligible recipients' departure from the Company or upon reaching retirement age, subject to approval of the Compensation Committee.
Stock-based compensation expense is calculated by estimating the fair value of incentive stock awards granted and amortizing the estimated value over the awards’ vesting periods. During fiscal
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, the Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of approximately
$4.9 million
,
$5.1 million
and
$6.2 million
, respectively.
Beginning for fiscal 2015 grants, the exercise price of each stock option is equal to the market value of the stock on the grant date. The exercise price of each stock option issued prior to fiscal 2015 exceeded the market value of the stock on the date of grant by
10%
. The fair value of each option is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the assumptions are based on historical data and industry valuation practices and methodology. The assumptions used to determine fair value are as follows:

As of
July 2, 2017
, there was
$6.6 million
of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested stock-based compensation. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of
1.4
years. The total fair value of shares vested during fiscal
2017
and
2016
was
$7.4 million
and
$13.2 million
, respectively.
During fiscal years
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, the Company issued
160,130
,
143,760
and
158,280
shares of restricted stock, respectively. For restricted stock issued prior to October 15, 2014, the restricted stock vests on the fifth anniversary date of the grant provided the recipient is still employed by the Company. For restricted stock issued after October 15, 2014, the restricted stock vests on the third anniversary date of the grant provided the recipient is still employed by the Company. The aggregate market value on the date of issue was approximately
$3.1 million
,
$2.9 million
and
$3.3 million
in fiscal
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively, and has been recorded within the Shareholders’ Investment section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and is being amortized over the five-year vesting period (issuances prior to October 15, 2014) or the three-year vesting period (issuances after October 15, 2014).
The Company issued
45,307
,
39,049
and
36,975
deferred shares to its directors in lieu of directors' fees in fiscal
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively, under this provision of the plans. Historically, the Company accounted for certain deferred shares issued to directors as liability classified awards, rather than equity classified awards. At January 1, 2017, the liability balance was
$4.8 million
. During the third quarter of fiscal 2017, the Company determined that equity classification is appropriate and recorded correcting entries to adjust the deferred shares balance and reclassify it from Accrued Liabilities to Additional Paid-In Capital. The correcting entries did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company issued
15,131
,
20,177
and
25,181
shares of deferred shares / RSU to its officers and key employees in fiscal
2017
,
2016
and
2015
, respectively. The aggregate market value on the date of grant was approximately
$0.3 million
,
$0.4 million
and
$0.5 million
, respectively. For deferred stock issued prior to October 15, 2014, the deferred stock vests on the fifth anniversary date of the grant provided the recipient is still employed by the Company. For restricted stock units (RSU) issued after October 15, 2014, the restricted stock units vest on the third anniversary date of the grant provided the recipient is still employed by the Company.
The Company granted
120,451
and
125,853
performance share units in fiscal
2016
and
2015
, respectively. A maximum of two shares of Briggs & Stratton common stock per performance share unit may be awarded to recipients if certain performance targets are met at the end of the vesting period. The aggregate market value on the date of grant was approximately
$2.4 million
and
$2.4 million
in fiscal
2016
and
2015
, respectively. The performance share units vest based on Company-specific performance goals. The performance share units are valued at the Company's share price on the date of grant multiplied by the probability of achieving payout. Expense for each of the awards granted is recognized ratably over the three-year vesting period.

(15) Derivative Instruments & Hedging Activities:
The Company enters into interest rate swaps to manage a portion of its interest rate risk from financing certain dealer and distributor inventories through third party financing sources. The swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and are used to effectively fix the interest payments to a third party financing source, exclusive of lender spreads, ranging from
0.98%
to
1.81%
for a notional principal amount of
$95 million
with expiration dates ranging from
May 2019
to
July 2021
.
The Company periodically enters into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge the risk from forecasted third party and intercompany sales or payments denominated in foreign currencies. Our primary foreign currency exchange rate exposures are with the Australian Dollar, the Brazilian Real, the Canadian Dollar, the Chinese Renminbi, the Euro, and the Japanese Yen against the U.S. Dollar. These contracts generally do not have a maturity of more than twenty-four months.
The Company uses raw materials that are subject to price volatility. The Company hedges a portion of its exposure to the variability of cash flows associated with commodities used in the manufacturing process by entering into forward purchase contracts or commodity swaps. Derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges are used by the Company to reduce exposure to variability in cash flows associated with future purchases of natural gas. These contracts generally do not have a maturity of more than thirty-six months.
The Company has considered the counterparty credit risk related to all its interest rate, foreign currency, and commodity derivative contracts and does not deem any counterparty credit risk material at this time.
The notional amount of derivative contracts outstanding at the end of the period is indicative of the level of the Company’s derivative activity during the period. As of
July 2, 2017
and
July 3, 2016
, the Company had the following outstanding derivative contracts (in thousands):

Retirement Plan and Other Postretirement Benefits
The Company has noncontributory, defined benefit retirement plans and other postretirement benefit plans covering certain employees. In October 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized an amendment to the Company's defined benefit retirement plans for U.S., non-bargaining employees. The amendment freezes accruals for all non-bargaining employees within the pension plan effective January 1, 2014. The Company uses a June 30 measurement date for all of its plans. The following provides a reconciliation of obligations, plan assets and funded status of the plans for the two years indicated (in thousands):

The accumulated benefit obligation for all defined benefit pension plans was
$1,117 million
and
$1,196 million
at
July 2, 2017
and
July 3, 2016
, respectively.
The Company recognizes the funded status of its pension plan in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The funded status is the difference between the projected benefit obligation and the fair value of its plan assets. The projected benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of all benefits expected to be earned by the employees’ service adjusted for future potential wage increases. Pension plan liabilities are revalued annually, or when an event occurs that requires remeasurement, based on updated assumptions and information about the individuals covered by the plan.
The pension benefit obligation and related pension expense or income are impacted by certain actuarial assumptions, including the discount rate, mortality tables, and the expected rate of return on plan assets. The discount rate is selected using a methodology that matches plan cash flows with a selection of Standard and Poor’s AA or higher rated bonds, resulting in a discount rate that is consistent with a bond yield curve with comparable cash flows. In estimating the expected return on plan assets, the Company considers the historical returns on plan assets, adjusted for forward looking considerations, including inflation assumptions and active management of the plan’s invested assets. These rates are evaluated on an annual basis considering such factors as market interest rates and historical asset performance.
For pension and other postretirement plans, accumulated actuarial gains and losses in excess of a 10 percent corridor are amortized on a straight-line basis from the date recognized over the average remaining life expectancy of all participants. Any prior service costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service of impacted employees at the time the unrecognized prior service cost was established. Approximately half of the costs related to defined pension benefit and other postretirement plans are included in cost of sales; the remainder is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
The following table summarizes the plans’ income and expense for the three years indicated (in thousands):

The “Other Postretirement Benefit” plans are unfunded.
On May 14, 2010, the Company notified retirees and certain retirement eligible employees of various amendments to the Company-sponsored retiree medical plans intended to better align the plans offered to both hourly and salaried retirees. On August 16, 2010, a putative class of retirees who retired prior to August 1, 2006 and the United Steel Workers filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin (Merrill, Weber, Carpenter, et al.; United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union, AFL-CIO/CLC v. Briggs & Stratton Corporation; Group Insurance Plan of Briggs & Stratton Corporation; and Does 1 through 20, Docket No. 10-C-0700), contesting the Company's right to make these changes. In mid-December 2015, the parties agreed in principle to settle this case for an aggregate payment of
$3.95 million
covering both claimed benefits and plaintiffs’ attorneys fees, which resulted in a contribution of
$1.975 million
from the Company and
$1.975 million
from a third party insurance provider. The Company recorded a total charge of
$1.975 million
as Engineering, Selling, General and Administrative Expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 related to this matter. The parties filed a signed Stipulation of Settlement with the court on April 12, 2016 and the court held a hearing on the fairness, reasonableness and adequacy of the terms and conditions of the settlement and on the fee petition of the plaintiffs' counsel on August 11, 2016. The court approved the settlement following that hearing.
For measurement purposes a
6.1%
annual rate of increase in the per capita cost of covered health care claims was assumed for the Company for the fiscal year
2017
decreasing gradually to
4.5%
for the fiscal year
2038
. The health care cost trend rate assumptions have a significant effect on the amounts reported. An increase of one percentage point would increase the accumulated postretirement benefit by
$1.2 million
and would increase the service and interest cost by
$40 thousand
for fiscal
2017
. A corresponding decrease of one percentage point would decrease the accumulated postretirement benefit by
$1.2 million
and decrease the service and interest cost by
$40 thousand
for the fiscal year
2017
.
In the third quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company initiated a limited offer for former employees with vested benefits to elect to receive a lump sum payout of their benefits. This program reduced the size of the pension plan while allowing former employees who accepted the offer to control the investment of their retirement funds. The Company completed this program during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. As a result of this program, the Company recognized pension settlement expense of
$20.2 million
(
$13.2 million
after tax) during fiscal 2016.
Plan Assets
A Board of Directors appointed Investment Committee (“Committee”) manages the investment of the pension plan assets. The Committee has established and operates under an Investment Policy. It determines the asset allocation and target ranges based upon periodic asset/liability studies and capital market projections. The Committee retains external investment managers to invest the assets. The Investment Policy prohibits certain investment transactions, such as lettered stock, commodity contracts, margin transactions and short selling, unless the Committee gives prior approval.
The Company’s pension plan’s current target and asset allocations at
July 2, 2017
and
July 3, 2016
, by asset category are as follows:

The plan’s investment strategy is based on an expectation that, over time, equity securities will provide higher total returns than debt securities, but with greater risk. The plan primarily minimizes the risk of large losses through diversification of investments by asset class, by investing in different types of styles within the classes and by using a number of different managers. The Committee monitors the asset allocation and investment performance monthly, with a more comprehensive quarterly review with its consultant. Beginning in fiscal
2014, the Committee revised the target asset allocation to shift to more fixed income and less alternative investments as a percentage of total plan assets. This revision to the target asset allocation was made to better match future cash flows from plan assets with the future cash flows of the projected benefit obligation.
The plan’s expected return on assets is based on management’s and the Committee’s expectations of long-term average rates of return to be achieved by the plan’s investments. These expectations are based on the plan’s historical returns and expected returns for the asset classes in which the plan is invested.
The Company has adopted the fair value provisions for the plan assets of its pension plans. The Company categorizes plan assets within a three level fair value hierarchy, as described in Note 6.
Investments stated at fair value as determined by quoted market prices (Level 1) include:
Short-Term Investments:
Short-Term Investments include cash and money market mutual funds that invest in short-term securities and are valued based on cost, which approximates fair value.
Equity Securities:
U.S. Common Stocks and International Mutual Funds are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the fiscal year.
Investments stated at estimated fair value using significant observable inputs (Level 2) include:
Fixed Income Securities:

(17) Restructuring Actions:
In fiscal 2015, the Company announced and began implementing restructuring actions to narrow its assortment of lower-priced Snapper consumer lawn and garden equipment and consolidate its Products segment manufacturing facilities in order to further reduce costs. The Company continues to focus on premium residential products through its Snapper and Simplicity brands and commercial products through its Snapper Pro and Ferris brands. The Company closed its McDonough, Georgia location in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 and consolidated production into existing facilities. Production of pressure washers, riding mowers, and snow throwers was moved to the Company's Wauwatosa, Wisconsin facility. At July 2, 2017 and July 3, 2016, the Company had
$1.4 million
and
$2.5 million
, respectively, classified as assets held for sale, which is included in Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets within the Consolidated Balance Sheets, related to the McDonough location. These changes affected approximately
475
employees during fiscal 2015. The Company's dealer product offerings under the Snapper Pro, Simplicity and Ferris brands as well as sales of Snapper and Murray branded lawn and garden products at Walmart were unaffected by these actions.
As of July 3, 2016, the restructuring actions announced in fiscal 2015 were completed as planned. As of July 3, 2016, the cumulative pre-tax restructuring costs associated with the 2015 restructuring actions were
$36.1 million
, which represented the total cost expected to be incurred under these restructuring actions.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company implemented restructuring actions within the Engines segment. These actions, which were completed in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, included a headcount reduction at its plant in Chongqing, China to offset lower production of engines used on snow throwers as well as changes in salaried personnel in the United States. The Engines segment recorded pre-tax charges of
$1.4 million
during the first quarter of fiscal 2016, which represented the cumulative pre-tax restructuring costs and the total costs expected to be incurred under these restructuring actions.
The Company reports restructuring charges associated with manufacturing and related initiatives as costs of goods sold within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Restructuring charges reflected as costs of goods sold include, but are not limited to, termination and related costs associated with manufacturing employees, asset impairments and accelerated depreciation relating to manufacturing initiatives, and other costs directly related to the restructuring initiatives implemented. The Company reports all other non-manufacturing related restructuring charges as engineering, selling, general and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

$10.2 million
(
$6.7 million
after tax or
$0.15
per diluted share) during fiscal
2016
related to restructuring actions. The Engines segment recorded
$1.4 million
of pre-tax restructuring charges during fiscal 2016. The Products segment recorded
