⁽¹⁾ EBIT is a non-GAAP measure defined as operating income plus other income (expense). EBIT Margin is a non-GAAP measure defined as
EBIT as a percentage of net sales. EBIT and EBIT Margin are important financial measures used in the management of the business,
including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance.  Management believes that reporting EBIT and
EBIT Margin is useful to investors as these measures are representative of the core operations of the segments and Company, respectively.

(2) Corporate pension-related charges represent professional fees associated with international pension de-risking and actuarial (losses) and gains that resulted from the remeasurement of pension plan assets and obligations as a result of changes in assumptions. The Company recognizes actuarial (losses) and gains through earnings in connection with the annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or on an interim basis if specific events trigger a remeasurement.

(Unaudited)

The following reconciliation is provided as additional relevant information about the Company's performance deemed useful to investors. 
Management believes that the non-GAAP measures of adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share are important financial

measures are representative of the Company's core operations.

⁽¹⁾ Adjustments are pre-tax, with the net tax provision listed separately.

⁽²⁾ Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges (including items recorded in cost of products sold) relate to: (i) plant closures; (ii) the rationalization of certain plants and (iii) severance related to cost reduction initiatives. The Company re-assesses its operating footprint and cost structure periodically, and makes adjustments as needed that result in restructuring charges.  However, management believes these actions are not representative of the Company's core operations.

⁽³⁾ Represents property loss and related expenses during the first half of the year (net of insurance proceeds) resulting from flood damage caused by heavy rainstorms that occurred during the first quarter of 2019 in Knoxville, Tennessee, that impacted one of the Company's warehouses.

⁽⁴⁾ Acquisition-related charges in 2019 primarily related to the Rollon S.p.A. ("Rollon") and The Diamond Chain Company ("Diamond Chain") acquisitions, including transaction costs and inventory step-up impact.

⁽⁵⁾ The Brazil legal matter represents expense recorded to establish a liability associated with an investigation into alleged antitrust violations in the bearing industry that was initiated in October 2014. Refer to the Contingencies footnote within the second quarter 2019 Form 10-Q for additional discussion.

⁽⁶⁾ The gain on sale of real estate related to the sale of a manufacturing facility in Pulaski, Tennessee during the first quarter of 2019. This amount was recorded in other income.

⁽⁷⁾ Represents the noncontrolling interest impact of the adjustments listed above.

⁽⁸⁾ Provision for income taxes includes the net tax impact on pre-tax adjustments (listed above), the impact of discrete tax items recorded during the respective periods, as well as other adjustments to reflect the use of one overall effective tax rate on adjusted pre-tax income in interim periods.

Reconciliation of EBIT to GAAP Net Income, and EBIT and EBITDA Margin, After Adjustments, to Net Income as a
Percentage of Sales, and EBIT and EBITDA, After Adjustments, to Net Income:

(Unaudited)

The following reconciliation is provided as additional relevant information about the Company's performance deemed useful to investors.  Management believes consolidated earnings before interest and taxes(EBIT) is a non-GAAP measure that is useful to investors as it is representative of the Company's performance and that it is appropriate to compare GAAP net income to consolidated EBIT. Management also believes that non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBIT, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBIT margin and adjusted EBITDA margin are useful to investors as they are representative of the Company's core operations and are used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance.

Reconciliation of Total Debt to Net Debt and the Ratio of Net Debt to Capital to the Ratio of Total Debt to Capital:

(Unaudited)

These reconciliations are provided as additional relevant information about the Company's financial position deemed useful to investors.
Capital, used for the ratio of total debt to capital, is a non-GAAP measure defined as total debt plus total shareholders' equity. Capital, used
for the ratio of net debt to capital, is a non-GAAP measure defined as total debt less cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash plus total
shareholders' equity. Management believes Net Debt and the Ratio of Net Debt to Capital are important measures of the Company's financial
position, due to the amount of cash and cash equivalents on hand.
