John Bean Technologies Corporation
Notes to Condensed Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Note 1: Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Description of Business John Bean Technologies Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries (JBT Corporation or we) provide global technology solutions for the food processing and air transportation industries. We design, manufacture, test and service technologically sophisticated systems and products for customers through our JBT FoodTech and JBT AeroTech segments. We have manufacturing operations worldwide and are strategically located to facilitate delivery of our products and services to our customers.
Basis of Presentation The following (a) condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2008, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) unaudited interim condensed financial statements, and notes thereto (the statements), of JBT Corporation have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in United States (GAAP) can be condensed or omitted. Therefore, these statements should be read in conjunction with our audited annual consolidated and combined financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.
In the opinion of management, the statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial condition and operating results as of and for the periods presented. Revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities can vary during each quarter of the year. Therefore, the results and trends in these statements may not be representative of those for the full year or any future period.
Prior to July 31, 2008, we operated as the FoodTech and Airport Services businesses of FMC Technologies, Inc. (FMC Technologies). Effective July 31, 2008, we were spun-off from FMC Technologies and became a separate, publicly-traded company. This transaction is referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as the spin-off. Our combined financial statements for the periods prior to July 31, 2008 have been prepared in accordance with GAAP on a carve-out basis from the consolidated financial statements of FMC Technologies using the historical results of operations and bases of the assets and liabilities of the FoodTech and Airport Services businesses and including allocations from FMC Technologies. This presentation incorporates the same principles used when preparing consolidated financial statements, including elimination of intercompany transactions. Allocated expenses include general and administrative services such as accounting, treasury, tax, legal, human resources, information technology and other corporate and infrastructure services. Many assets, liabilities and expenses could be specifically identified with JBT Corporation businesses or personnel and were directly allocated. To the extent amounts could not be specifically identified and allocated, we primarily used our proportion of FMC Technologies total revenue as a reasonable allocation method. Allocations have been determined on the basis of assumptions and estimates that management believes to be a reasonable reflection of our utilization of those services. These allocations and estimates, however, are not necessarily indicative of the assets, liabilities and expenses that would have resulted if we had operated as a separate entity in the past, or that may result in the future.
Upon the effectiveness of the spin-off, we significantly changed our capital structure. The financial statements prior to the separation do not reflect the debt or interest expense we might have incurred if we were a stand-alone entity. In addition, the financial statements may not be indicative of our consolidated financial position, operating results or cash flows in the future or what our financial position, operating results and cash flows would have been had we been a separate, stand-alone entity during the periods presented prior to the spin-off.
Recently adopted accounting pronouncements On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141R), which replaced SFAS No. 141. SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer in a business combination recognizes and measures the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. The adoption of SFAS 141R did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations but will impact the accounting for future business combinations.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 , which provided a one year deferral of the effective date of SFAS 157 for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually). We adopted the provisions of SFAS 157 on January 1, 2008 with respect to financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value within the financial statements. On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of SFAS 157 with respect to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities. The adoption of SFAS 157 in respect to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
5
On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment to ARB No. 51 (SFAS 160). This statement applies to all entities that prepare consolidated financial statements, except not-for-profit organizations, but affects only those entities that have an outstanding non-controlling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. The adoption of SFAS 160 had no impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activitiesan amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures regarding derivatives and hedging activities, including enhanced disclosures regarding how: (a) an entity uses derivative instruments; (b) derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities ; and (c) derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entitys financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. The adoption of SFAS 161 had no impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations. The additional disclosures required by this statement are included in Note 7.
On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of FSP FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets (FSP FAS 142-3), which amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (SFAS 142). The intent of FSP FAS 142-3 is to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS 141R and other GAAP. FSP FAS 142-3 requires an entity to disclose information for a recognized intangible asset that enables users of the financial statements to assess the extent to which the expected future cash flows associated with the asset are affected by the entitys intent and/or ability to renew or extend the arrangement. The requirements for determining the useful life of intangible assets apply to intangible assets acquired after January 1, 2009. The adoption of FSP FAS 142-3 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
On January 1, 2009, we adopted the provisions of FSP EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities (FSP EITF 03-6-1). This FSP addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and therefore need to be included in the earnings allocation in calculating earnings per share under the two-class method described in SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share . The FSP requires companies to treat unvested share-based payment awards that have non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents as a separate class of securities in calculating earnings per share. The adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1 had no impact on our results of operations or earnings per share as our dividends on unvested share-based payment awards are forfeitable.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
In April 2009, the FASB issued Staff Position FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1,
Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
(FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1). FSP
FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 amends SFAS 107,
Disclosures about Fair Values of Financial Instruments
, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments in interim financial statements as well as in annual financial statements and
amends APB Opinion No. 28,
Interim Financial Reporting
, to require those disclosures in all interim financial statements. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 is effective for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009, but early adoption is
permitted for interim periods ending after March 15, 2009. We will adopt the provisions of SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 and provide the additional required disclosures in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter ending on

Note 3: Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
Prior to our spin-off from FMC Technologies, our employees were eligible to participate in pension and postretirement benefit plans sponsored by FMC Technologies. As such, for the three month period ended March 31, 2008, we accounted for the related
6
pension and other postretirement benefit costs under the multiemployer plan approach and recognized the pension and other postretirement benefit costs allocated to us by FMC Technologies as an expense, with a corresponding contribution in owners net investment. The expense was allocated to us based on the service cost from JBT Corporation employees and a proportion of other FMC Technologies corporate staff service cost, which was allocated primarily using JBT Corporations proportion of FMC Technologies consolidated revenue. The following table summarizes the net periodic benefit cost for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008:

Note 4: Stock-based Compensation
For the three months ended March 31, 2009, stock-based compensation expense includes awards for JBT Corporation and FMC Technologies nonvested stock units (also known as restricted stock units). For the three months ended March 31, 2008, stock-based compensation expense includes awards for FMC Technologies restricted stock units granted to our employees as well as an allocation of expense for awards granted to FMC Technologies corporate employees and directors. Compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 is as follows:

7
We granted time-based restricted stock awards that vest after three years. The fair value of these time-based awards was determined using the market value of our common stock on the grant date. Compensation cost is recognized over the lesser of the stated vesting period or the period until the employee reaches age 62, the retirement eligible age under the plan. We also granted restricted stock awards with performance-based conditions. The vesting period for these awards is three years.
For current year performance-based awards, actual payouts may vary from zero to 232,178 shares and will be dependent upon our performance relative to prior year with respect to earnings growth and return on investment for the year ending December 31, 2009. Compensation cost is measured based on the current expected outcome of the performance conditions and may be adjusted until the performance period ends.
Note 5: Warranty Obligations
We provide warranties of various lengths and terms to certain of our customers based on standard terms and conditions and negotiated agreements. We provide for the estimated cost of warranties at the time revenue is recognized for products where reliable, historical experience of warranty claims and costs exists. We also provide warranty liability when additional specific obligations are identified. The obligation reflected in other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets is based on historical experience by product and considers failure rates and the related costs in correcting a product failure. Warranty cost and accrual information is as follows:

Note 6: Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (EPS) is computed by dividing income from continuing operations by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities.
As discussed in Note 1, in connection with our spin-off, on July 31, 2008 FMC Technologies distributed to its shareholders 27.5 million shares of our common stock. This share amount is being utilized for the calculation of basic and diluted EPS for the three months ended on March 31, 2008.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS utilizing the income from continuing operations for the respective periods and our basic and dilutive shares outstanding:

Note 7: Derivative Financial Instruments and Risk Management
Derivative financial instruments We hold derivative financial instruments for the purpose of hedging foreign currency risks and interest rate risks of certain identifiable and anticipated transactions.
We manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries throughout the world and, as a result, are exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. Our major foreign currency exposures involve the markets in Western and Eastern Europe, South America, and Asia. The purpose of our foreign currency hedging activities is to manage the economic impact of exchange rate volatility associated with anticipated foreign currency purchases and sales created in the normal course of business. We primarily utilize forward exchange contracts with maturities of less than 3 years. Many of our sales and purchase contracts are written contemplating this risk and therefore contain embedded derivatives, which we consider part of our risk management policy.
As of March 31, 2009, the following forward contracts were outstanding in U.S. dollar equivalent:

0.3 | (0.2 | ) | 0.1 | ||||
South African Rand |
0.1 | (2.3 | ) | (2.2 | ) |
Additionally, we have entered into an interest rate swap to hedge a portion of our variable rate debt.
Our policy is to hold derivatives only for the purpose of hedging risks and not for trading purposes where the objective is solely to generate profit. Generally, we enter into hedging relationships such that changes in the fair values or cash flows of items and transactions being hedged are expected to be offset by corresponding changes in the fair value of the derivatives.
Most of our derivatives are not designated for hedge accounting. All derivatives are recognized on the balance sheet at their fair value and classified based on the instruments maturity date. We do not offset fair value amounts for derivative instruments held with the same counterparty. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are recorded in current earnings or deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), depending on the type of hedging transaction and whether a derivative is designated as, and is effective as, a hedge.

Refer to Note 9: Fair Value of Financial Instruments for a description of how the above financial instruments are valued in accordance with SFAS 157.
Credit risk By their nature, financial instruments involve risk including credit risk for non-performance by counterparties. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to credit risk primarily consist of trade receivables and derivative contracts. We manage the credit risk on financial instruments by transacting only with financially secure counterparties, requiring credit approvals and credit limits, and monitoring counterparties financial condition. Our maximum exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty is limited to the amount drawn and outstanding on the financial instrument. Allowances for losses are established based on collectability assessments.

Note 9: Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:
|
Level 1 : Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. |
|
Level 2 : Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets. |
|
Level 3 : Unobservable inputs reflecting managements own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. |
Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Investments are valued based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Investments are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. We use the income approach as the valuation technique to measure the fair value of derivative instruments on a recurring basis. This approach calculates the present value of the future cash flow by measuring the change from the derivative contract rate and the published market indicative currency and interest rates, multiplied by the contract notional values, and includes a factor of credit risk.
Note 10: Related Party Transactions
In connection with our spin-off from FMC Technologies, we entered into a separation and distribution agreement with FMC Technologies (the Separation and Distribution Agreement) and several ancillary agreements to complete the separation of our businesses from FMC Technologies. These agreements defined key provisions related to the spin-off and the relationship between the two companies after the spin-off. The Separation and Distribution Agreement required FMC Technologies to contribute certain business segments and their associated assets and liabilities to us. As a result of the contribution, FMC Technologies has no interest in our assets and business and generally has no obligation with respect to our liabilities. Similarly, we have no interest in FMC Technologies assets and generally have no obligation with respect to FMC Technologies liabilities.
Prior to the spin-off, FMC Technologies has allocated to us, among other things, $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2008, of expenses incurred by FMC Technologies for providing us with the following services: legal, tax, general accounting, communications, corporate development, benefits and human resources, information systems, payroll services, web hosting services and other public company costs. As of March 31, 2009, we have a $1.3 million receivable from FMC Technologies included in other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet related to reimbursement of payroll tax payments.
11
Note 11: Contingent Liabilities
Contingent liabilities associated with guarantees In the ordinary course of business with customers, vendors and others, we issue standby letters of credit, performance bonds, surety bonds and other guarantees. These financial instruments represent guarantees of our future performance. We also have provided approximately $3.9 million of bank guarantees and letters of credit to secure a portion of our existing financial obligations. The majority of these financial instruments expire within two years; we expect to replace them through the issuance of new or the extension of existing letters of credit and surety bonds.
Under the Separation and Distribution Agreement with FMC Technologies, we have assumed an indemnification and guarantee for an Industrial Development Revenue Bond payable to Franklin County, Ohio. Our former parent was primarily liable for the Industrial Development Revenue Bond until the property securing the bond was sold and the obligations under the bond were assigned to a third party in 1979. At March 31, 2009, the maximum potential amount of undiscounted future payments that we could be required to make under this bond was $0.9 million through final maturity in October 2009. In October 2008, we were required to pay $0.9 million under the bond after the assignee failed to make the annual principal payment due in October 2008. We have recorded this amount in other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet along with a receivable from the assignee, recorded in other assets. This receivable is recoverable either by payment from the assignee or from proceeds from the sale of the property, which we may recover from the current owner and sell. Management believes that proceeds from the sale of the property would satisfy our existing receivable and cover any potential future payments required.
Management believes that the ultimate resolution of our known contingencies will not materially affect our financial position or results of operations.
Contingent liabilities associated with legal matters Under the Separation and Distribution Agreement with FMC Technologies, we have assumed liabilities related to specified legal proceedings arising from our business prior to separation. As a result, although FMC Technologies will in many cases remain the named defendant, we will manage the litigation and indemnify FMC Technologies for costs, expenses and judgments arising from this existing litigation. We do not believe that any existing litigation we have assumed will have a material effect on our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
We are involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the results of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not believe that the resolution of the proceedings that we are involved in, either individually or taken as a whole will have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We evaluate international markets and pursue opportunities that fit our technological capabilities and strategies.
The food processing and air transportation industries in which we operate are susceptible to significant changes in the strength of the global or regional economies and the economic health of companies who make capital commitments for our products and services. We focus on economic and industry-specific drivers and key risk factors affecting each of our businesses as we formulate our strategic plans and make decisions related to allocating capital and human resources. These factors include risks associated with the global economic outlook, product obsolescence, and the competitive environment.
As part of our core mission of being a leading supplier of customized solutions to the food processing and air transportation industries, we address these business related risks through our focus on the four critical strategies of extending our technology leadership; leveraging our installed base; capturing international growth opportunities; and growing through acquisitions.
As we evaluate our operating results, we consider performance indicators like segment revenue and operating profit in addition to the level of inbound orders and order backlog.
Prior to July 31, 2008, we operated as the FoodTech and Airport Services businesses of FMC Technologies. Effective July 31, 2008, we were spun-off from FMC Technologies and became a separate, publicly-traded company. This transaction is referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as the spin-off.

Our total revenue of $169.0 million represented a decrease of $91.2 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. Continued challenging economic conditions affected demand for our products in both of our segments. JBT FoodTech revenue decreased by $43.5 million, excluding unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation of $11.4 million, primarily due to a decline in sales volume of our freezing and protein processing equipment. JBT AeroTech revenue decreased by $35.7 million, excluding unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation of $2.3 million, primarily due to a decline in sales volume for our ground support equipment.
Cost of sales was $76.2 million lower in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008, while gross profit (revenue less cost of sales) decreased by $15.0 million in the same period. The decrease in gross profit reflects lower sales, an unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation of revenue and cost of sales of $5.2 million and approximately $2.0 million we incurred in costs in the first quarter of 2009 related to implementation of cost reduction programs. However, gross profit margins increased by 4.0 percentage points as a result of improved margins across several product lines and sales of a more profitable mix of products during the period.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $4.4 million lower in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. Excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency translation, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $1.6 million due to savings from cost reduction programs and lower selling costs.
Other income, net reflects primarily gains and losses related to foreign currency transactions and gains and losses on investments in our non-qualified deferred compensation plan. The decrease of $1.8 million in other income, net in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 was primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar.
Net interest expense was $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to net interest income of $0.1 million in the same period in 2008. The expense in 2009 reflects the interest expense on the senior unsecured notes we issued and credit facility we entered into in July 2008 in connection with our spin-off. We did not have significant amounts of debt outstanding prior to the spin-off.
Income tax expense in the first quarter of 2009 resulted in an effective income tax rate of 34.0% compared to an effective rate of 38.1% in the same period in 2008. The difference in the effective tax rate was primarily attributable to the assumptions made in 2008 with respect to the taxability of U.S. taxes on foreign earnings and tax impact on certain expense items that were allocated to us from our former parent, FMC Technologies, on a carve-out basis.

JBT FoodTech
JBT FoodTechs revenue of $94.9 million represented a decrease of $54.9 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. Continued challenging economic conditions affected sales of our freezing and protein processing equipment. Sales in Europe of our freezing and protein processing equipment declined by $15.3 million across all food markets except the fruits and vegetables market, where sales increased by $4.9 million. Sales in North America of our freezing and protein processing equipment declined by $6.3 million primarily in the poultry and bakery products markets, but were partially offset by an increase of $5.4 million in sales to customers in the ready meals market. Large orders of our freezing and protein processing equipment that were delivered in the first quarter of 2008 drove an unfavorable comparison of sales in Latin America and Asia Pacific, where sales declined by $13.6 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Additionally, timing of shipments of tomato and fruit processing equipment, which we expect to ship in the second quarter of 2009, resulted in $4.2 million of less revenue. The remaining difference was primarily due to an unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation.
JBT FoodTechs operating profit of $7.8 million represented a decrease of $6.6 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. Lower sales volume resulted in $11.7 million of lower profits, which was partially offset by $6.2 million due to improved profit margins as we provided more aftermarket products, parts and services. Reduced research and development activities resulted in $1.2 million of lower costs. Additionally, a cost reduction program implemented in the first quarter of 2009 resulted in $0.8 million of lower selling costs. The remaining difference was primarily due to an unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation.
17
JBT AeroTech
JBT AeroTechs revenue of $73.6 million represented a decrease of $38.0 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. Continued weak demand for ground support equipment due to the global recession resulted in a decrease in revenue of $33.1 million. Additionally, a delay in shipments of aviation fuel-saving pre-conditioned air units to the U.S. military resulted in $4.9 million of lower revenue. Sales of automated systems increased by $1.8 million but were offset by an unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation.
JBT AeroTechs operating profit of $5.5 million represented a decrease of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. Lower sales volume resulted in a decrease in profits of $7.1 million, which were partially offset by $2.5 million in improved profit margins and $1.0 in lower selling costs. Gross profit margins increased by 3.3 percentage points due to a more favorable product mix. Additionally, we implemented a cost reduction program to help us manage through the economic downturn.
Corporate Items
Corporate expense was $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to $2.8 million in the same period in 2008. The 2009 expense reflects stand-alone corporate costs while the 2008 expense reflects an allocation from FMC Technologies.
Other expense, net was $0.6 million higher in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 primarily due to higher pension costs in 2009.
Net interest expense was $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2009 compared to net interest income of $0.1 million in the same period in
2008. The expense in 2009 reflects the interest expense on the senior unsecured notes we issued and credit facility we entered into in July 2008 in connection with our spin-off. We did not have significant amounts of debt outstanding prior to the

JBT FoodTechs order backlog at March 31, 2009 increased by $4.6 million since year-end 2008 and decreased by $10.2 million since March 31, 2008. Excluding unfavorable impact of foreign currency translation, order backlog increased by $5.6 million since March 31, 2008. The increase from year-end 2008 is primarily due to orders for our citrus processing equipment, while the increase in constant currency from March 31, 2008 is primarily due to large orders for our in-container processing equipment and tomato processing equipment.
JBT AeroTechs order backlog at March 31, 2009 has increased by $14.9 million since year-end 2008 and decreased by $48.2 million since March 31, 2008. The increase from year-end 2008 is driven by a large order for our Halversen loaders, while the decrease from March 31, 2008 is driven by lower orders of our ground support equipment due to industry and economic conditions facing airline and air freight industries.
18
Outlook
We expect continued economic instability in the world economy through 2009 and likely into 2010. Although certain of our product lines are performing well, demand for our ground support equipment remains soft. Additionally, we are experiencing weakness in the European and Latin American markets for JBT FoodTech product lines. Interest expense for the remainder of 2009 is expected to be approximately $7.6 million and our full year effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 34% to 35%. We expect our second quarter diluted earnings per share from continued operations to be stronger than the first quarter, reflecting our typical seasonality. However, due to the uncertain market conditions, we have limited visibility into the second half of 2009 making it extremely difficult to provide an accurate estimate for 2009. As a result, we will not provide full year guidance.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our principal sources of funds are cash flows from operations and borrowings under our credit facility. Our principal use of funds consists of operating expenditures, payments of principal and interest on our credit facility, capital expenditures and interest payments on our outstanding senior unsecured notes. We believe our cash flows from operations and our credit facilities will be sufficient to satisfy our future working capital, research and development activities, capital expenditures, pension contributions and other financing requirements for the foreseeable future. Our ability to generate positive cash flows from operations is dependent on general economic conditions, competitive pressures, and other business and risk factors.
Financing Arrangements
As of March 31, 2009, we have $75 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.66% senior unsecured notes outstanding that are due on July 31, 2015. The senior unsecured notes require us to make semiannual interest payments. Additionally, as of March 31, 2009 we have $90 million outstanding on our $225 million 5-year revolving credit facility that matures on July 31, 2013. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest, at our option, at LIBOR or an alternative base rate, which is the greater of JPMorgan Chase, N.A.s Prime Rate and Federal Funds Rate plus 50 basis points, plus a margin dependent on our leverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement. We are required to make periodic interest payments on the borrowed amounts and pay an annual facility fee ranging from 17.5 to 35 basis points, depending on our leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2009, there was approximately $112 million available on the revolving credit facility.
Our long-term obligations contain various customary covenants including a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. The leverage ratio covenant restricts the amount of Consolidated Total Indebtedness we may have compared to Consolidated EBITDA, according to the terms defined in the note purchase and credit facility agreements. The interest coverage ratio covenant restricts the amount of Consolidated Interest Expense we may have compared to Consolidated EBITDA, according to the terms defined in the note purchase and credit facility agreements. We do not have a covenant related to our net worth. As of March 31, 2009, we are in compliance with all restrictive covenants and expect to remain in compliance in the foreseeable future. However, there can be no assurance that continued or increased volatility in the global economic conditions will not impair our ability to meet our restrictive covenants, or the volatility in the capital and credit markets will not impair our ability to access these markets on terms acceptable to us or at all.
We also have an interest rate swap related to interest payments on $50 million of our variable rate borrowings from July 31, 2008 to January 29, 2010 and $25 million of our variable rate borrowings from January 30, 2010 to January 31, 2011. The effect of the interest rate swap, which was acquired on June 30, 2008, is to fix the effective annual interest rate of these variable rate borrowings at 3.675% plus a margin dependent on our leverage ratio.

Operating Cash Flows
We generated $6.1 million in cash flows from continuing operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2009. The decrease of $5.4 million over the same period in the prior year is primarily attributable to lower earnings, as income from continuing operations decreased by $7.9 million, partially offset by lower investment in working capital. Our investments in working capital decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2009 compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to lower accounts receivable as a result of lower sales.
Investing Cash Flows
Cash used by investing activities was $4.3 million and $3.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, primarily consisting of amounts required to fund capital expenditures. Much of our spending supports the maintenance and upgrading of our installed base of leased equipment and facilities.
Financing Cash Flows
Cash used in financing activities was $22.9 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The increase in cash used in financing activities was driven primarily by payments made to reduce the outstanding balance on our credit facility from $110 million at December 31, 2008 to $90 million at March 31, 2009. We did not have any debt issued in the first quarter of 2008 but distributed $6.5 million to our former parent, FMC Technologies.
Additionally, we paid a cash dividend of $0.07 per common share in the first quarter of 2009.
Discontinued Operations Cash Flows
Our discontinued businesses ceased operations in 2007 and were sold in 2007 and 2008. Minimal cash flows are expected for 2009.
Outlook
We plan to meet our cash requirements in future periods with cash generated from operations and borrowings under our credit facilities. On May 7, 2009, the Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.07 per share of outstanding common stock, or approximately $2.0 million. The dividend will be paid on June 12, 2009 to stockholders of record at the close of business on May 22, 2009. We estimate that we will pay $7.6 million in interest under our financing agreements in the remainder of 2009. We project that we will contribute approximately $16.5 million in 2009 to our pension plans, although we are not currently required to fund our U.S. pension plan.
We continue to evaluate acquisitions in the normal course of business which we expect to fund with cash generated from operations or borrowings under our credit facility.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors
John Bean Technologies Corporation:
We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of John Bean Technologies Corporation and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2009, and the related consolidated and combined statements of income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008. These consolidated and combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.
We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated and combined financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of John Bean Technologies Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008, and the related consolidated and combined statements of income, cash flows and changes in stockholders equity for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated March 11, 2009, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated and combined financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2008, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Exhibit 3.2
FIRST AMENDMENT TO AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS
OF JOHN BEAN TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS OF JOHN BEAN TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION is dated May 7, 2009.
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors desires to make certain changes to the John Bean Technologies Corporation Amended and Restated Bylaws and believes such changes are in the best interest of the Corporation;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Companys Amended and Restated Bylaws be, and they hereby are, amended by amending and restating Article XI in its entirety to read as follows:
ARTICLE XI
INDEMNIFICATION AND INSURANCE
SECTION 11.1. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is involved in any action, suit, claim or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a proceeding ), by reason of the fact that he or she or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans maintained or sponsored by the Corporation, whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such person in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and administrators; provided , however , that except as provided in Section 11.3 of this Article XI , the Corporation shall indemnify any such person seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board of Directors. The right to indemnification conferred in this Article XI shall be a contract right and such right is fully vested, and shall be deemed to have vested fully, immediately upon the commencement of such persons service to the Corporation in any of the capacities described in this Section 11.1. The right to indemnification conferred in this Article XI also shall include the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition, such advances to be paid by the Corporation within 20 days after the receipt by the Corporation of a statement or statements from the claimant requesting such advance or advances from time to time; provided , however , that if the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware requires, the payment of such expenses incurred by a director or officer in his or her capacity as a director or officer (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such person while a director or officer, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that such director or officer is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article XI or otherwise.
SECTION 11.2. To obtain indemnification under this Article X I, a claimant shall submit to the Corporation a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to the claimant and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent the claimant is entitled to indemnification. Upon written request by a claimant for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 11.2 , a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to the claimants entitlement thereto shall be made as follows: (1) if requested by the claimant, by Independent Counsel (as hereinafter defined), or (2) if no request is made by the claimant for a determination by Independent Counsel, (i) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Disinterested Directors (as hereinafter defined), or (ii) if a quorum of the Board of Directors
consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable or, even if obtainable, such quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board of Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to the claimant, or (iii) if a quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs, by the stockholders of the Corporation. In the event the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel at the request of the claimant, the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board of Directors unless there shall have occurred within two years prior to the date of the commencement of the action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification is claimed a Change of Control as defined in the John Bean Technologies Corporation Incentive Compensation and Stock Plan, in which case the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the claimant unless the claimant shall request that such selection be made by the Board of Directors. If it is so determined that the claimant is entitled to indemnification, payment to the claimant shall be made within 10 days after such determination.
SECTION 11.3. If a claim under Section 11.1 of this Article XI is not paid in full by the Corporation within thirty days after a written claim pursuant to Section 11.2 of this Article XI has been received by the Corporation, the claimant may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim and, if successful in whole or in part, the claimant shall be entitled to be paid also the expense of prosecuting such claim. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final disposition where the required undertaking, if any is required, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not met the standard of conduct which makes it permissible under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proving such defense shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, Independent Counsel or stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, Independent Counsel or stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.
SECTION 11.4. If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 11.2 of this Article XI that the claimant is entitled to indemnification, the Corporation shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to Section 11.3 of this Article XI .
SECTION 11.5. The Corporation shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to Section 11.3 of this Article XI that the procedures and presumptions of this Article XI are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in such proceeding that the Corporation is bound by all the provisions of this Article XI .
SECTION 11.6. The right to indemnification and the payment of expenses incurred in defending a proceeding in advance of its final disposition conferred in this Article XI shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, By-Laws, agreement, vote of stockholders or Disinterested Directors or otherwise. No repeal or modification of this Article XI shall in any way diminish or adversely affect the obligations of the Corporation or the rights or obligations of any current or former director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation hereunder in respect of any occurrence or act, omission, state of facts or other matter arising prior to any such repeal or modification.
SECTION 11.7. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. To the extent that the Corporation maintains any policy or policies providing such insurance, each such director or officer, and each such agent or employee to which rights to indemnification have been granted as provided in Section 11.8 of this Article XI , shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage thereunder for any such director, officer, employee or agent.
SECTION 11.8. The Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, grant rights to indemnification, and rights to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any proceeding in advance of its final
disposition, to any employee or agent or class of employees or agents of the Corporation (including the heirs, executors, administrators or estate of each such person) to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article XI with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of directors and officers of the Corporation.
SECTION 11.9. If any provision or provisions of this Article XI shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (1) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Article XI (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of this Article XI containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (2) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Article XI (including, without limitation, each such portion of any paragraph of this Article XI containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.
SECTION 11.10. For purposes of this Article XI :
(A) Disinterested Director means a director of the Corporation who is not and was not a party to the matter in respect of which indemnification is sought by the claimant.
(B) Independent Counsel means a law firm, a member of a law firm, or an independent practitioner, that is experienced in matters of corporation law and shall include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would not have a conflict of interest in representing either the Corporation or the claimant in an action to determine the claimants rights under this Article XI .
SECTION 11.11. Any notice, request or other communication required or permitted to be given to the Corporation under this Article XI shall be in writing and either delivered in person or sent by telecopy, telex, telegram, overnight mail or courier service, or certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the Secretary of the Corporation and shall be effective only upon receipt by the Secretary.
