Industrial Outlook: WHERE ARE WE NOW?

AMT GLOBAL FORECASTING AND MARKETING CONFERENCE

OCTOBER 16- 17, 2013

Eli S. Lustgarten

Senior Vice President, Longbow Securities

1

TRANSITIONING FROM A CHALLENGED 2012 TO A MUDDLING THROUGH 2013-14

• Industrial activity peaked globally in the summer of 2012 as global politics froze virtually all major markets.

• Industrial companies reacted by completing major projects underway, while approving very few new programs.

• In response to weakening industrial activity, most global manufacturers opted for inventory liquidation in 2H12 and 1H13 led by the two sectors that overproduced more than any other – trucks and construction equipment.

• March through June 2013 results point to a bottoming of inventory destocking, greater than expected strength in AWP’s, sluggish crane demand and weak mining markets likely through 2014.

GLOBAL THEMES DICTATE SLOWER ECONOMIES

• U.S. markets have been stronger, Europe weaker than expected but now stabilizing and emerging markets somewhat disappointing but beginning to improve though at rates below recent norms

• Japanese Yen decline will affect competitive positions but U.S. companies will likely fare better than their European counterparts (e.g., KMT vs. Sandvik and TKR vs. SKF) as U.S. markets will have far stronger demand than Europe.

• China’s 2013 growth plans are more muted. Priority is to remake its economy to be domestic demand driven with less reliance on exports and investments in capital-intensive state owned companies. Beijing willing to tolerate slower growth short term to revamp its economy for the future.

1H2013: Global Themes Dictate Slow Economies for the Foreseeable Future

• U.S.—1Q13 (1.1%R) and 2Q (2.5%R—revised up from 1.7%) due mostly to trade (exports) and inventories– Slower PCE, inventory build, construction, govt.

– US Gov’t actions have not mattered; we have survived everything from the payroll tax hike to early sequestering

– Record stock market, better jobs and rising rates

• Europe– Recession signaling an end; but economic activity generally weaker than expected

• China– evidence of a turnaround but disappointing to date

• Brazil/LatAm—two steps forward, one step back

• Overall—muddle through remains the theme-- slow global economic growth in 2013

IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY SEEN IN PROFITABILITY REBOUND

• Corporate earnings have flourished; Increased productivity evident in strong operating margin rebound for most companies, post 2009 restructuring

• Margins for most have approached or exceeded 2008 levels, – In 2009 temporary (zero bonus pay-outs, furloughs, pay reductions, travel

restrictions, eliminate overtime) and structural measures (layoffs, plant consolidations and closings, increased automation ) used to reduce costs

– Structural measures will continue to offset the return of temporary costs savings (about 60% of costs).

– Employee compensation (base wages, healthcare) likely outpaces inflation, hiring will be kept in check

– 2011-2012: Earnings have risen above prior peaks, but incremental margins are now trending downwards.

– 2013-14: Can Margins Hold? Lower Input Costs are helping!

THE CONSUMER HAS BEGUN TO LEAD

• CONSUMER SPENDING IS SLUGGISH – However it recovered somewhat since 2Q11 running between 1.5% to 2.4%

through 2Q13; Weak July retail sales: Is consumer running out of steam

TWO TYPES OF PRESSURES DRIVING EQUIPMENT PRICES HIGHER

Type I – Manufacturing Input costs increased as commodity prices surge fromstrong global demand and a weak dollar from 2009 to 1H2011 Pricing effect is mostly low to mid single-digit increases Most commodity prices have moderated; including oil

Type II – Regulatory Driven Price Increases New emission regulations for off-road equipment

Interim Tier 4 effective January 2011 for equipment over 174 hp; all other equipmenteffective January 2012

Similar to 2007 Truck emission; but regulations will be phased into the off-road sectorfor multiple years

Final Tier 4 effective January 2014; similar to 2010 truck emission BUT NO PHASE-IN; BIG EQUIPMENT IN 2014 AND ALL EQUIPMENT IN 2015

Energy efficiency regulations e.g. motors Price impact of IT4 regulatory driven changes appear to be low to mid double

digits

THREE MONTHS UNTIL FINAL TIER 4

• JANUARY 2014: 174 to 751 HP; JANUARY 2015: 75 to 173 HP; Final Tier 4 Costs estimates at 60% of IT4.

• Urea (or DEF) is the new fluid in every fleet managers maintenance operation; new fluid will unlikely change maintenance strategies.

• Machine costs will continue to go up but at a lower rate than the double-digit impact of Interim Tier 4. Cost will continue to reflect the investment of builders to meet EPA regulations plus some catch-up for unrecovered costs associated with the IT4/FT4 programs.

• CAT 2014: 0% to 2% General Price Increase; Plus 2% to 6% for Emissions

• TELEMATICS is potentially the magic bullet for Machine Owners.

– Telematics provides cost savings available by adding technology.

– This includes tracking fuel usage, more accurate logistics, closer control of maintenance needs and machine health at lower costs.

MIXED GLOBAL ECONOMY IN 2012

• Global economies fell into 3 groups– Surprising strength: U.S., Canada, Germany—but slowing

– Soft landing with bigger downside risks: China, Brazil, India

– Europe currency/sovereign/bank risk feeding recession

• Politics engulf virtually every major region globally in 2H12 and into 2013

– Europe volatility continues, Financial concerns on the rise again, Elections in France and Germany

– China—potential bubble in opaque economy; turmoil, scandal, Politburo changeover amidst economic slowdown

– Brazil—strong currency and government turmoil

– U.S.—elections, F2013 Budget, 2013–Sequestering and massive tax hikes; Debt ceiling FIGHT POSTPONED

EUROPE: RECESSION MAY BE BOTTOMING

• European ISM PMI was in recession; First sign of life in July with Mfg.PMI at 50.3; August 51.4; Sept. 51.1-only France (49.7) and Greece (48.7) are sluggish

• Austerity programs implemented; low interest rates prevail

• New govt. France (2012); Reelected Germany (Sept. 2013)

• Current weakness likely to linger for the next 12 months though with a positive slope– SHIFTING FROM RESCUE TO RECOVERY

– Sovereign State Problems (PIIGS) existed in 2009/10; MODEST progress made

– UK growth outlook improving; 2013E 1.4% (vs. 1.2%) and 2014E 2.5% (vs. 1.7%)—new OECD and BOE projection

– ALL Now seem to be copying U.S. FED21

CHINA SEEKS TO LIFT DOMESTIC DEMAND AMID QUALITY GROWTH

• China 2012 growth about 7.6%; 1Q12 was 8.1%; 2Q12 7.6%; and 3Q12 7.4%; 4Q 7.9%

• PMI in China was modestly below 50 for third consecutive month at 47.7 on July; August 50.1, and Sept. 50.2 implies a return to moderate growth

• Biggest impact on China is European weakness; Europe is China’s biggest customer

• China priority is to remake its economy: more domestic demand and less on exports and investments in capital-intensive state owned co.’s

• China still biggest market for commodities but without the accelerating growth in demand

12

CHINA SEEKS TO LIFT DOMESTIC DEMAND AMID QUALITY GROWTH (CONT’D)

• 2013 growth plans more muted. These specifics revealed in March 2013 when Mr. Li took over as Premier and Xi Jinping became China’s President.

– 3Q12 growth of 7.4% was slowest of the year; modestly better in 4Q at 7.9% (manufacturing and housing); 1Q13 7.7%; 2Q13 7.5%

• China renewed its 2012 goal of 7.5% for 2013 —not precise forecast as China often beats its goal.

– A modest number like 7.5% suggests Beijing willing to tolerate slower growth short term to revamp its economy for the future.

– July trade and other data may give support to GDP forecasts

– July Exports +5.1%(-3.1% June); July Imports 10.9%( -0.7% June)

– Aug. Industrial Prod. 10.4% ( 9.7% July; 8.9% June); July retail sales+13.2% (13.3% June); lower small bus. Taxes, RR spending

• But the priority is “QUALITY GROWTH.”

23

BRAZIL: IS SLOWDOWN ENDING?

• 2012 GDP Grew only 0.9% with 4Q12 growth at 0.6%(vs. 2011 2.7%; 2010 7.5%); Hurt by Euro Debt crisis, High taxes and turmoil in Gov’t policy, political scandals, and currency appreciation.

• 1Q 2013 GDP disappointing 0.55%; Ag drove 2Q13 positive surprise of 1.5% Q/Q and 3.3% Y/Y. Positive but moderating GDP outlook for 2013 (about 2.24%)– World Cup in 2014 (stadiums built, infrastructure

improvements in jeopardy); Olympics in 2016

– BUT, In recent months, over $95B Reals (US $47.5B) in investments postponed including $70B from Petrobas

• Accelerating growth did not happen during 2H12 or first part of 2013; Commodity cycle over: Only AG is booming

U.S. 4Q12/1H13: GROWTH WAS DIFFICULT

• U.S. benefited from a favorable weather effect in 1Q12; winter 2011-12 4th warmest in history

• Industrial production about Flat after weather driven 1Q12 (8.4R% in 1Q, +2.1R% in 2Q, 0.1R% 3Q, 2.7R% 4Q); all 2012 benefited from big 1Q;

• JAN 13 -0.1%; FEB +0.6%; MAR -0.2%; (1Q13 4.9% YoY); April-0.4%; May +0.3%; June+0.2% (2Q13 -0.8% YoY) ;July -0.4%; Aug 0.7%P--Flat Outlook triggers inventory liquidation.

• 4Q12 GDP revised to 0.1%; 1Q13 at 1.1% and 2Q at 2.5%R –slower PCE, Inventory build and construction; Bright spot is trade—stronger exports

• Industry adopted Wait-and-See attitude 2H12 to1H13 25

2013TAX BILL DOESN’T SOLVE MUCH YET

• Raises taxes by $600B over 10 years; delays across-the-board cuts just by 2 months;

• TAXES—raises top rate to 39.5% for over $400,000 individual/$450,000 couples; AMT indexed to inflation;

• 1-year extension of bonus depreciation, R&D tax credit, and Production Tax credit (PTC);

• Section 179 enhancement 100% $500,000 write-off for new and used equipment

• Social Security payroll tax—2% cut lapses, restoring payroll tax to 6.2%;

• Capital gains tax raised from 15% to 20% on income above $400,000/$450,000; Estate taxes rise from 35% to 40% above $5M exemption.

OPTIMISM FOR 2H2013-14: Global Role Reversal Underway

• U.S. the best house in a lousy neighborhood; economy on the mend

– Housing bouncing back; home prices on the rise and construction activity picking up; but rates are starting to rise;

– Job growth has somewhat stabilized at what appears to be a revised 200,000 plus per month?

– America enjoying oil boom; natural gas boom also on horizon.

– The fiscal cliff is really a slope; real fight over debt ceiling in fall?

• Euro-zone recession could end in third quarter; Manufacturing PMI rose to 51.4 in August from 50.3 in July, up in all nations except France (49.7) and Greece (48.7).

• Japan economy growing 2% in 2013; 1.2% plus in 2014; inflation targets

• China, India and Brazil growing but at rates well below the norms of 2002-2008. China PMI 50.1 in Aug. (47.7 July); India Mfg. PMI 48.5 in Aug. from 50.1 in July; Brazil 49.4 in Aug. (from 48.5 July; 50.4 in June.)

2012-14: SLOW ECONOMY MEANT SLOWER GROWTH FOR INDUSTRIAL MARKETS

• GDP FORECASTS for 2013-14 about 1.6% to 2.5%

A VERY OPTIMISTIC 3 TO 5 YEAR OUTLOOK

• 2012 GDP growth of 2.8%R; Likely weaker in 2013-2014 depending on politics;

• 2H 2013 U.S. Industrial Markets will likely show modest to moderate growth after difficult 1H2013.

• IF WE CAN SURVIVE THE NEXT 12 TO 18 MONTHS, the U.S. potentially has one of the most favorable 3-5 year outlooks.

• U.S. can become a net energy exporter with low cost energy supplies (natural gas); low cost feedstock for industrial products. Needs infrastructure build-out!

• Growth of Energy markets, energy efficiency (motors, lighting led by LED, smart grid).

29

A VERY OPTIMISTIC 3 TO 5 YEAR OUTLOOK (CONTINUED)

• Re-shoring/Near-shoring phenomena is real, enhancing a renaissance of American Manufacturing

– Shortening of global supply chains and Regionalizing manufacturing; America for America; Asia for Asia.

• Most manufacturers ran out of capacity in emerging markets due to strong growth; Recognized supply chains were too long.

• In 2007/08 (ports, freight rates/containers); 2009 deliveries while shutdown; Japan Tsunami/Earthquake; Thailand Flooding.

– Big shift to Mexico and U.S. over next 3 to 5 years as global manufacturing costs equalize in mid–decade; CAT, GE, Appliance Industry are leaders.

– Component suppliers will be the big winners!

• Recovery of construction markets—both housing and non-residential.

2012-2013:FARMERS REMAINED BULLISH DESPITE DROUGHT

• Drought caused major crop shortfall with poor yields, surging commodity prices and low carryovers

• Farmers were well protected by insurance; 85% of corn crop was insured

• Farm cash receipts surged in 2013 keeping strong momentum on farm equipment sales

• Emission regulations were driving up prices

37

EU 27 FARM ECONOMY WAS AT LEAST STABLE IN 2012;IMPROVING IN 2013

• Cautious sentiment due to EU financial system strains; Northern Europe financial conditions better than South.

• Farm business conditions and mood more positive due to strong crop prices and rising farm income.– Beef, pork, and milk prices remain at attractive levels

• Demand for agricultural machinery expected near flat in 2012 and in 2013; farmer sentiment positive but financial crisis and wet UK weather a problem.– Low levels of used equipment

– Financing continues to be more readily available in the north

• Common Agricultural Policy budget 2014-2020 frozen at 2007-2013 nominal levels eliminating uncertainty.

RUSSIA OUTLOOK POSITIVE; ELSEWHERE UNCERTAIN, PARTICULARLY ASIA

• C.I.S. Outlook Driven by Russia– Farmer sentiment positive

– Commodity prices favorable

– Financing available in Russia BUT constrained in other CIS countries; import duties on combines in Russia, and CIS

• India—tractor market soft; monsoon deficit will lower grain output; increased liquidity exists in banks.

• China—awaits more clarity in policies; soybean production declining as farmers switch to more corn and rice. Uncertainty due to mixed weather and subsidies outlook

FAVORABLE OUTLOOK FOR FARM EQUIPMENT IN 2013; But 2014?

• 2012 N.A. Demand was up led by larger equipment; ROW is flat to down! Commodity prices to remain at high levels because of drought.

• U.S. farm cash receipts remain at record levels.– Forecast based on average cash receipts of past 2 years; 2011

FCR up 17.7% to about $384.7B (revised).

– 2012E FCR up 4.5% to $402.1B; 2-Yr Avg. up 10.4%

– 2013E FCR may fall to $389.8 B; 2-Yr Avg. up 0.7%

• Latin America outlook more favorable: La Nina?– Brazil’s government policies more favorable; Will Argentina

finally open up in 2013-14.

• European and Russia/CIS market fundamentals improving.

• WEATHER always a factor.41

2012-2013 SALES OK; 2013-14 FARM OUTLOOK MAY BE BEGINNING TO SOFTEN

• Although high crop prices and comprehensive crop insurance provide a strong support level in 2012 for most farmers in the Corn Belt and surrounding regions, uncertainty pervades at dealers as a result of the U.S.’s worst drought in over 50 years.

• Insurance payments were $10.8B in 2011 and estimated at about $18B-$20B in 2012; 85% Corn Acreage Insured.

• Insurance payments are $7.50 for corn and $15.39 for Soybeans for best insurance; otherwise $5.68 and $12.55.

• Our contacts were concerned about activity in 2H12, but that passed AND THE FARMER KEPT BUYING

2013-14 FARM EUIPMENT OUTLOOK MAY BE SOFTENING

• Outlook in the U.S. is fairly neutral due to depressed crop prices and uncertainty about ending yields. The next couple months will tell all as we look for this season’s ending yields. Germany, appears to be optimistic for 2H13 due to a healthy amount of rain the past few weeks, expecting a slight y/y improvement. Latin Americaexpects a mid-single digit growth rate much in-line with current trends to the remainder of the year

• The tone of the farm equipment sector has changed. Potential for large crops and slow global growth has caused a cautious approach to farm equipment demand.

• 2014 Farm Equipment sales possibly flat to down 10% in North America

KILLING COAL IN THE U.S.

• EPA imposed de-facto ban on new coal fired power plants over the past 3 years. EPA also doing everything it can to harm existing coal plants (e.g., CSAPR and MATS).

• New Source performance standards for Carbon under Clean Air Act; finding to limit greenhouse emissions; To control CO2, utilities to install speculative technologies.

• EPA Estimate of rule is $0—WHY? EPA assumes U.S. will never complete another coal plant. EVER—EPA admits its myriad of rules has stopped coal plant building.

• EPA New Source Review—whenever a coal plant upgrades anything it must comply with all rules on books. This is a slow kill of even current plants over time.

• Courts have limited EPA for now. 54

Truck Demand in 2012-2015 Moderating (cont.)

• Economic Growth and INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION ARE KEY DRIVERS of truck demand; Driver shortage is also a key to the level of future demand.

• Slower economic growth of +/- 2% plus in 2013(1.6%E) and 2014 (2.4%E) compared to +/- 3% plus translates into growth of industrial production of around 2.5% to 3.5% MINUS rather than 4% plus; usually means stabilization/modest growth of truck fleets rather than expansion of fleets.

• Truck Manufacturers over-produced in 1H12 at a 310,000 annual rate;

• Inventory liquidation followed with production at a 220,00 annual rate from 2H2012 through 1H2013

• Truck sector demand likely to remain around replacement rate after inventory liquidation is over

61

Regulatory and Structural Changes Can Spur Future Truck/Trailer Demand in 2013-2015

• New regulations such as CSA2010, and HOS (effective mid-2013) could eventually require more trucks on road (about 3%) to service freight to OFFSET reduced hours of work.

• Re-shoring/Near Shoring Effect can sharply increase N.A. Manufacturing

– Global companies are endeavoring to reduce and diversify supply chains after:

• difficulties in 2007-08 (freight rate surged, ports clogged, and containers in shortage); required to take product in 1Q09 that was on the water despite global recession;

• Supply chain disruption from Japanese Tsunami and earthquake; Thailand flooding;

– Running out of capacity in emerging markets

– Moving production back toward end markets— Shortening of supply chains and Regionalization of production with Asia production for Asia and N.A. production to supply N.A.

NEW HEAVY DUTY TRUCK STANDARDS COMING

• First ever Heavy Duty Truck fuel efficiency standards to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gases by up to 23% by MY2018; Regulation begins MY2014.

• Trucks divided into three broad groups:– Combination Tractor trailers to reduce fuel consumption and

CO2 gases by up to 23% by model year 2018 starting in MY2014.

– Gas Powered HD trucks and vans to cut fuel consumption and CO2 by 10% (or 15% if run on diesel fuel) by MY2018.

– Vocational/Work Trucks to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 by 9% to 10% by MY2018.

• Could raise average truck cost by $6,200 or more.

ARE FLEETS MOVING TOWARDS SMALLER TRUCKS

• Companies analyzing whether to step down in class size to cut costs while meeting customer specific needs

– Right-sizing fleets means replacing capacity with smaller vehicles

– Spec to haul diminishing load versus max load throughout the day

• Distributor model maybe shifting over time from long-range driving to shorter range hub and spoke operation

– Panama Canal expansion completion in 2015 means more cargo to East Coast diminishing need for cross country runs.

– ON-shoring phenomenon likely to source regionally

• Movement from Class 8 down may have significant savings

– Lower class vehicle exempt for Federal excise tax of 12.5%

– Lower purchase price, operating costs, lower maintenance, insurance, races and tolls

– Class 6 doesn’t require a commercial license; a bigger driver pool

IMPLICATION OF CURRENT FORECAST ON N.A. PRODUCTION

• Decade over decade vehicle sales will be about flat, however, most of the downside is likely behind us.

• New vehicle sales and production return to prior peak levels by 2016 (over 17M vehicles) with the potential for new record high levels for the second half of the decade.

• Strong currencies and massive onshore investment means most N.A. sales will be produced in N.A.– New Domestics continue to invest heavily and will see more

upside than Detroit, although Detroit should also be positive.

– Mexico will continue to be big winner; U.S. South also has upside potential.

– Canada and U.S. North are potentially vulnerable.

Construction Equipment Spending has been Far Stronger than Underlying Activity

• While construction expenditures have seen only modest recovery, spending on new construction machinery accelerated in 2010 to 2012 and were far stronger than originally anticipated.

• Gains of 38% in 2011 were driven by several factors spurring more intense buying, particularly in the second half of 2011:

– The more generous 100% bonus depreciation that expired at the end of 2011;

– Price increases for new equipment being driven by two key factors–higher input costs (steel, copper aluminum) raising prices by about 3%-5%; and regulatory driven cost increases such as the implementation of Interim Tier 4 over the next several years, which we believe will ultimately drive up equipment prices by about 12%; these higher prices will likely be phased in about 4% to 5% increments.

– With rising, albeit modestly, construction outlays, the need for normal replacement will occur as most construction equipment fleets have aged (and shrunk), particularly in the rental sector.

38

2010-2012: CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT DEMAND WAS HOT; SPENDING WAS NOT

• The key to the strength in equipment demand is fleet replacement. The level of equipment sales were well below replacement levels even at current levels of construction activity.

– Construction equipment sales fell over 66% from its peak in 2006 to the trough in mid-2009. Most construction equipment fleets have aged and shrunk during the downturn.

– Total private construction expenditures fell 45% peak to trough between 2006 and 2010 and were still down over 40% through 2011.

– We are witnessing a bounce in construction equipment sales back towards a level more consistent with current construction activity depressed as it may be, and still 35% or more below prior level peaks.

• There are two key factors that enhanced construction equipment demand in 2011:

– Ongoing price increases for the foreseeable future driven by rising input costs and the roll-out of new IT4 emission compliant equipment;

– The tax incentive for 2011 allowing 100% write-off of new equipment purchases.

75

CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT DEMAND IS HOT; SPENDING IS NOT

• Every time an equipment buyer looks at buying a new piece of equipment, they are likely to see higher prices; a phenomena that accelerated in the second half of 2011 and is carrying THROUGH 2012 as:

– Manufacturers use up emission credits;

– Requirements for IT4 compliant equipment expand from over 174 HP in 2011 to all equipment in 2012;

– Prices in 2012 appeared to be up at least 7% to 10% or more;

– 2012 IT4 Compliant equipment phased in—Deere’s 14-model introduction is 0 in 1Q12; 6 in 2Q12; 5 in 3Q12; and 4 in 4Q12.

• With equipment prices on the rise, the tax benefits of equipment write-offs of 50% (down from 100% that spurred more equipment purchases in 2011) is enough to keep momentum going as domestic economic growth remains on a reasonable growth track.

• Current Bonus depreciation extended for 2013; section 179 enhancement helps small business and used equipment markets!

2014:MODERATE BUT MIXED RECOVERY

• Construction Activity should continue to improve in 2014 driven by further growth in housing and higher spending in private non-residential markets.

• Rental companies are reassessing current relatively flat spending plans to date in 2013 due to continued good utilization rates, improving outlook for construction spending and the implementation of Final Tier 4—big equipment in 2014 and all equipment in 2015.

• We look for double-digit growth in light equipment demand next year; but a 5% to 10% decline in larger equipment led by continued soft mining demand.

• Global demand for CE should improve in Brazil, Europe and China.

COMMODITY SUPER-CYCLE IS OVER

• Slowing China Growth means end of commodity super-cycle—the combination of accelerating demand and rising prices to support China’s spectacular double-digit GDP growth

• Acceleration fueled by tilt toward heavy industry in 2000

• Rapid pace of industrialization and urbanization led to accelerated demand for copper, iron ore and other commodities

• Commodity system accustomed to excess capacity and weaker demand was not ready

• Result—surging prices; China consuming 40% of world copper at peak in 2011 vs. less than 20% in 2003

COMMODITY SUPER-CYCLE OVER (Cont’d)

• China Double-Digit GDP growth unsustainable– China can no-longer depend on exports as main driver of

growth—Europe largest destination;

– Rapidly rising wages of 15% to 20% per year

• New China economic policy is domestic consumption

• China still the largest market for commodities, but without the accelerating growth in demand

• Problem: Global production capacity expanded to meet the super-cycle; – copper-prices down 30% form 2011 peak; iron ore down

32%. IHS non-oil commodity index down 27% since 2008 (source: WSJ).

– Rising trade data in July showed up commodity imports

85

COMMODITY SUPER-CYCLE OVER (Cont’d)

• China “chill” created turmoil in investment plans of global mining companies. New CEO’s (BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto, Anglo American etc.) focus on reigning in investments, cutting back projects, consolidating businesses. Focus improved returns to shareholders

• Future mining investments depends on global growth, especially Europe; and how well China manages its transition from exports towards domestic consumption.

• Exporters such as Australia, Brazil South Africa, Russia can no longer count on surging raw material earnings to fund their economic growth and government spending. Now must face economic reforms and tax policies that super-cycle let them avoid.

HOUSING OUTLOOK: SOME IMPROVEMENT

• Housing activity remained muted in 2011 but is finally gaining some momentum in 2012 AND 2013.

• Single Family: number of improving markets growing but some homebuilders and buyers still having trouble getting loans.

• Multi-Family: Upturn should last through AT LEAST THROUGH 2013-14.

– Vacancy rate is now at 10 year low; Rents are up;

– Rental demand should grow as more people get jobs;

– Condo market still with large overhang.

SUMMARY OF CONSTRUCTION OUTLOOK 2012-13 AND BEYOND

• Private non-residential to rise 10% to 15%(Vs. 18% in 2012) led by power, pipeline, manufacturing, warehouses, higher education, data centers, hotels, hospitals??; no office or retail

• Public non-residential down -2% to down -5% (Vs. -3% in 2012) with highway, educational 0%, other transportation (-5%); declining Federal Funds.

• Residential up at least 10% to 15% (Vs. 17% in 2012) with Multi-Family strong; single family and remodeling up a bit.

• Total construction up 5% to 10%.

• 2013-18: Total Construction Spending up 6% to 10% or more.

– New Drivers: shale-based oil & gas; Panama Canal Widening; More Elderly and kids. Less housing, retail, public spending.

PRODUCTIVITY NEEDS WILL DRIVE MACHINE TOOL DEMAND

• Manufacturing employment has been declining for over 60 years, but output has rise at a 3.2% rate due to productivity

• Beginning July 2009, manufacturing output in the US has increased at a 4.7% annual rate and has recovered 82.2% of its drop in output. (Fed Reserve Chicago)

• Manufacturing has only recovered 22% of the jobs lost during the downturn. Politics and Obamacare drive automation spending. (Fed Reserve Chicago)

• Companies started 2013 with up cap-ex budgets that were frozen in mid-year due to stagnant environment

• We expect companies to start 2014 with lower cap-ex budget than last year but at the run rate of 2H2013 suggesting the potential for upside in spending.

A VERY OPTIMISTIC 3 TO 5 YEAR OUTLOOK

• 2H 2013 U.S. Industrial Markets will likely show modest to moderate growth after sluggish 12 month period..

• IF WE CAN SURVIVE THE NEXT 12 TO 18 MONTHS, the U.S. potentially has one of the most favorable 3-5 year outlooks.

• U.S. can become a net energy exporter with low cost energy supplies (natural gas); low cost feedstock for industrial products.

• Shale—major direct and indirect impact on infrastructure; pipes, pipelines, water, roads, site prep, fracking sand, drills, compressors, pumps tanks, downstream facilities.

• Growth of Energy markets, energy efficiency (motors, lighting led by LED, smart grid).

97

A VERY OPTIMISTIC 3 TO 5 YEAR OUTLOOK (CONTINUED)

• Re-shoring/Near-shoring phenomena is real, enhancing a renaissance of American Manufacturing.

– Shortening of global supply chains and Regionalizing manufacturing; America for America; Asia for Asia.

• Most manufacturers ran out of capacity in emerging markets due to strong growth; Recognized supply chains were too long.

• In 2007/08 (ports, freight rates/containers); 2009 deliveries while shutdown; Japan Tsunami/Earthquake; Thailand Flooding.

– Big shift to Mexico (Gov’t policies matter) and U.S. over next 3 to 5 years as global manufacturing costs equalize in mid-decade; CAT, GE, NCR, Masterlock, Ford, Appliance Industry are leaders.

– Component suppliers will be the big winners!

• Recovery of construction markets—Housing and Nonresidential.
