1. | i BASIS
OF PRESENTATION |
Mettler-Toledo International Inc. ("Mettler-Toledo" or the "Company") is a leading global supplier of precision instruments and services. The Company manufactures weighing instruments for use in laboratory, industrial, packaging, logistics and food retailing applications. The Company also manufactures several related analytical instruments and provides automated chemistry solutions used in drug and chemical compound discovery and development. In addition, the Company manufactures metal detection and other end-of-line inspection systems used in production and packaging and provides solutions for use in certain process
analytics applications. The Company's primary manufacturing facilities are located in China, Germany, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States. The Company's principal executive offices are located in Columbus, Ohio and Greifensee, Switzerland. The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include all entities in which the Company has control, which are its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The interim consolidated financial
statements have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of the interim periods presented.
Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2020. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, as well as disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates due to the uncertainty around the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors. A discussion of the
Company’s critical accounting policies is included in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

2. | i SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
i Trade Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for expected credit losses represents the Company’s best estimate based on historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts of future events and circumstances.

i Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost, which includes direct
materials, labor and overhead, is generally determined using the first in, first out (FIFO) method. The estimated net realizable value is based on assumptions for future demand and related pricing. Adjustments to the cost basis of the Company’s inventory are made for excess and obsolete items based on usage, orders and technological obsolescence. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, reductions in the value of inventory may be required. i Inventories consisted of the following: |

/ / i Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill, representing the excess of purchase price over the net asset value of companies acquired, and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized, but are reviewed for impairment annually in the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset might be impaired. The annual evaluation for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are generally based on an assessment of qualitative and quantitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the asset is less than its carrying amount.
Other intangible assets include indefinite-lived assets and assets subject to amortization. Where applicable, amortization is charged on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit. The straight-line method of amortization reflects an appropriate allocation of
the cost of the intangible assets to earnings in proportion to the amount of economic benefits obtained by the Company in each reporting period. The Company assesses the initial acquisition of intangible assets in accordance with the provisions of ASC 805 "Business Combinations" and the continued accounting for previously recognized intangible assets and goodwill in accordance with the provisions of ASC 350 "Intangible - Goodwill and Other" and ASC 360 "Property, Plant and Equipment". i Other

NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
(In thousands, except share data, unless otherwise stated)
The Company recognized amortization expense associated with the above intangible assets of $ i 3.9
million and $ i 3.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $ i 7.9
million and $ i 7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The annual aggregate amortization expense based on the current balance of other intangible assets is estimated at $ i 15.8
million for 2020, $ i 14.6 million for 2021, $ i 13.2
million for 2022, $ i 13.9 million for 2023, $ i 12.7
million for 2024 and $ i 11.6 million for 2025. Purchased intangible amortization was $ i 3.7
million, $ i 2.8 million after tax, and $ i 3.5 million,
$ i 2.6 million after tax, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $ i 7.5
million, $ i 5.6 million after tax, and $ i 6.9 million,
$ i 5.2 million after tax, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. In addition to the above amortization, the Company
recorded amortization expense associated with capitalized software of $ i 9.9 million and $ i 8.5
million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $ i 19.9 million and $ i 17.0
million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. i Revenue Recognition
Product revenue is recognized from contracts with customers when a customer has obtained control of a product. The
Company considers control to have transferred based upon shipping terms. To the extent the Company’s arrangements have a separate performance obligation, revenue related to any post-shipment performance obligation is deferred until completed. Shipping and handling costs charged to customers are included in total net sales and the associated expense is a component of cost of sales. Certain products are also sold through indirect distribution channels whereby the distributor assumes any further obligations to the end customer. Revenue is recognized on these distributor arrangements upon transfer of control to the distributor. Contracts do not contain variable pricing arrangements that are retrospective, except for rebate programs. Rebates are estimated based on expected sales volumes and offset
against revenue at the time such revenue is recognized. The Company generally maintains the right to accept or reject a product return in its terms and conditions and also maintains appropriate accruals for outstanding credits. The related provisions for estimated returns and rebates are immaterial to the consolidated financial statements. Certain of the Company’s product arrangements include separate performance obligations, primarily related to installation. Such performance obligations are accounted for separately when the deliverables have stand-alone value and the satisfaction of the undelivered performance obligations is probable and within the Company's control.
The allocation of revenue between the performance obligations is based on the observable stand-alone selling prices at the time of the sale in accordance with a number of factors including service technician billing rates, time to install, and geographic location. Software is generally not considered a distinct performance obligation with the exception of a few small software applications. The Company generally does not sell software products without the related hardware instrument as the software is embedded in the product. The Company’s products typically require no significant production, modification, or customization of the hardware or software that is essential to the functionality of the products. Service
revenue not under contract is recognized upon the completion of the service performed. Revenue from spare parts sold on a stand-alone basis is recognized when control is transferred to the customer, which is generally at the time of shipment or delivery. Revenue from service contracts is recognized ratably over the contract period using a time-based method. These contracts represent an obligation to perform repair and other services including regulatory compliance qualification, calibration, certification, and preventative maintenance on a customer’s pre-defined equipment over the contract
period.

i Leases
The
Company considers an arrangement a lease if the arrangement transfers the right to control the use of an identified asset in exchange for consideration. The Company has operating leases, but does not have financing leases. Operating lease right-of-use assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make payments arising from the lease agreement. These assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement of the lease based upon the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. Lease payments include both lease and non-lease components for items or activities that transfer a good and service. Vehicle lease and non-lease components are separately accounted for based on standalone value. Real estate lease and non-lease components are accounted for
as a single component. Operating lease right-of-use assets include initial direct costs, advanced lease payments and lease incentives.
The lease term reflects the noncancellable period of the lease together with periods covered by an option to extend or terminate the lease when management is reasonably certain that it will exercise such option. The Company generally uses its incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments as the information necessary to determine the rate implicit in the lease is not readily available. The incremental borrowing rate reflects similar terms by geographic location to the underlying leases. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value
guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Variable lease payments consist of non-lease services related to the lease. Variable lease payments are excluded from the right-of-use asset and lease liabilities and are expensed as incurred. Short-term leases are less than one year without purchase or renewal options that are reasonably certain to be exercised and are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The right-of-use asset is tested for impairment in accordance with ASC 360.
i Warranty
The
Company generally offers one-year warranties on most of its products. Product warranties are recorded at the time revenue is recognized. While the Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, its warranty obligations are affected by product failure rates, material usage and service costs incurred in correcting a product failure. i Employee Termination Benefits
In situations where contractual termination benefits
exist, the Company records accruals for employee termination benefits when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimable. All other employee termination arrangements are recognized and measured at their fair value at the communication date unless the employee is required to render additional service beyond the legal notification period, in which case the liability is recognized ratably over the future service period. i Share-Based Compensation
The
Company recognizes share-based compensation expense within selling, general and administrative in the consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive income with a corresponding offset to additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company recorded $ i 4.4 million and $ i 8.8
million of share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to $ i 4.3 million and $ i 8.8
million for the corresponding periods in 2019. /

i Research
and Development
Research and development costs primarily consist of salaries, consulting and other costs. The Company expenses these costs as incurred.
i Business Combinations and Asset Acquisitions
The Company accounts for business acquisitions under the accounting standards for business combinations. The results of each acquisition
are included in the Company's consolidated results as of the acquisition date. The purchase price of an acquisition is allocated to tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values and any consideration in excess of the net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. Acquisition transaction costs are expensed when incurred.
In circumstances where an acquisition involves a contingent consideration arrangement, the Company recognizes a liability equal to the fair value of the expected contingent payments as of the acquisition date. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration are recorded to other charges (income), net. i
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13: Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. The ASU requires the allowance for doubtful accounts to be estimated based on an incurred loss model, which considers historical and forecasted conditions. The guidance became effective for the Company January 1, 2020 on a prospective basis and did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14: Compensation - Retirement Benefit which amends the current disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension plans and other post-retirement plans. The change in the disclosures will be applied retrospectively and becomes effective December
15, 2020 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the benefit plan disclosures.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15: Internal-Use Software which clarifies the accounting for implementation costs associated with cloud-computing internal-use software arrangements. The implementation costs should be capitalized and expensed over the service term, including options to extend, and recognized in selling, general, and administrative in the statement of operations. The guidance became effective January 1, 2020 and is applied on a prospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In
December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12: Income Taxes which removes certain exceptions to the general principles of ASC 740 related to intraperiod tax allocation exceptions, deferred tax liabilities related to outside basis differences, and year-to-date losses in interim periods. In addition, the ASU amends the interim guidance to clarify that all tax effects, both deferred and current, related to enactments of tax laws or rate changes should be accounted for in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The change is applied prospectively and becomes effective December 15, 2020 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.
In March 2020,
the FASB issued ASU 2020-04: Reference Rate Reform which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by discontinuance of LIBOR or another referenced rate. The guidance may be applied to any applicable contract entered into before December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

The
Company's global revenue mix by product category is comprised of laboratory ( i 54% of sales), industrial ( i 40%
of sales) and retail ( i 6% of sales). The Company's product revenue by reportable segment is proportionately similar to the Company's global mix except the Company's Swiss Operations
is largely comprised of laboratory products while the Company's Chinese Operations has a slightly higher percentage of industrial products. A summary of the Company’s revenue by product category for the three and six months ended June 30 is as follows: |

The
payment terms in the Company’s contracts with customers do not exceed one year and therefore contracts do not contain a significant financing component. In most cases, after appropriate credit evaluations, payments are due in arrears and are recognized as receivables. Unbilled revenue is recorded when performance obligations have been satisfied, but not yet billed to the customer. Unbilled revenue as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 was $ i 24.8
million and $ i 17.4 million respectively, and is included within accounts receivable.

Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period is one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general, and administrative expenses. The Company has not disclosed the value of unsatisfied performance obligations other than customer prepayments and deferred revenue above as most contracts have an expected length of one year or less and amounts greater than one year are immaterial.

4. i FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company
has limited involvement with derivative financial instruments and does not use them for trading purposes. The Company enters into certain interest rate swap agreements in order to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates. The amount of the Company's fixed obligation interest payments may change based upon the expiration dates of its interest rate swap agreements and the level and composition of its debt. The Company also enters into certain foreign currency forward contracts to limit the Company's exposure to currency fluctuations
on the respective hedged items. For additional disclosures on derivative instruments regarding balance sheet location, fair value, and the amounts reclassified into other comprehensive income and the effective portion of the cash flow hedges, also see Note 5 and Note 9 to the interim consolidated financial statements. As also mentioned in Note 7, the Company has designated its euro-denominated debt as a hedge of a portion of its net investment in euro-denominated foreign subsidiary. Cash Flow Hedges
In June 2019, the Company entered into a cross currency swap arrangement designated as a cash flow hedge. The agreement converts $ i 50
million of borrowings under the Company's credit facility into synthetic Swiss franc debt, which allows the Company to effectively change the floating rate LIBOR-based interest payments, excluding the credit spread to a fixed Swiss franc income of i 0.82%.
The swap matures in June 2023. In June 2019, the Company entered into a cross currency swap arrangement designated as a cash flow hedge. The agreement converts $ i 50 million of borrowings under the
Company's credit facility into synthetic Swiss franc debt, which allows the Company to effectively change the floating rate LIBOR-based interest payments, excluding the credit spread to a fixed Swiss franc income of i 0.95%. The swap matures in June 2021. In
February 2019, the Company entered into a cross currency swap arrangement designated as a cash flow hedge. The agreement converts $ i 50 million of borrowings under the Company's credit facility
into synthetic Swiss franc debt, which allows the Company to effectively change the floating rate LIBOR-based interest payments, excluding the credit spread to a fixed Swiss franc income of i 0.78%. The swap matures in June 2021. In 2015, the
Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement designated as a cash flow hedge. The agreement has the effect of changing the floating rate LIBOR-based interest payments associated with $ i 100 million of borrowings under the Company's credit agreement to a fixed obligation
of i 2.25% beginning in February 2017 and matures in February 2022. In 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement designated as a cash flow hedge. The agreement has the effect of changing the floating rate LIBOR-based interest payments associated
with $ i 50 million of borrowings under the Company’s credit facility to a fixed obligation of i 2.52%
beginning in October 2015 and matures in October 2020. The Company's cash flow hedges are recorded gross at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. A derivative loss of $ i 0.5
million based upon interest rates and foreign currency rates at June 30, 2020, is expected to be reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings in the next twelve months. The cash flow hedges remain effective as of June 30, 2020. Other Derivatives
The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts in order to economically hedge short-term trade and non-trade intercompany balances largely denominated in Swiss franc, other major

(In thousands, except share data, unless otherwise stated)
European currencies, and the Chinese Renminbi with its foreign businesses. In accordance with U.S. GAAP, these contracts are considered “derivatives not designated as hedging instruments.” Gains or losses on these instruments are reported in current earnings. The foreign currency forward
contracts are recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and disclosed in Note 5. The Company recognized in other charges (income) related to these instruments, a net gain of $ i 0.3
million and a net loss of $ i 9.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and a net loss of $ i 7.0
million and $ i 4.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The gains and losses are primarily offset by the
underlying transaction gains and losses on the related intercompany balances. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, these contracts had a notional value of $ i 478.2 million and $ i 494.6
million, respectively. 5. i FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the
Company had derivative assets totaling $ i 1.4 million and $ i 1.6
million respectively, and derivative liabilities totaling $ i 14.8 million and $ i 9.0
million, respectively. The Company has limited involvement with derivative financial instruments and therefore does not need to present all the required disclosures in tabular format. The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements, the cross-currency swap agreements and foreign currency forward contracts that economically hedge short-term intercompany balances are estimated based upon inputs from current valuation information obtained from dealer quotes and priced with observable market assumptions and appropriate valuation adjustments for credit risk. The Company has evaluated the valuation methodologies used to develop the fair values by dealers in order to determine
whether such valuations are representative of an exit price in the Company’s principal market. In addition, the Company uses an internally developed model to perform testing on the valuations received from brokers. The Company has also considered both its own credit risk and counterparty credit risk in determining fair value and determined these adjustments were insignificant at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Under U.S. GAAP, fair value is defined as the price that would
be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value measurement consists of observable and unobservable inputs that reflect the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability.
A fair value hierarchy has been established that categorizes these inputs into three levels:
| |
Level 1: | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities |
| |
Level 2: | Observable
inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities |
| |
Level 3: | Unobservable inputs |

Company had $ i 14.8 million and $ i 8.2 million of cash equivalents at June 30,
2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, the fair value of which is determined using Level 2 inputs, through quoted and corroborated prices in active markets. The fair value of cash equivalents approximates cost. The fair value of the Company's debt exceeds the carrying value by approximately $ i 35.6
million as of June 30, 2020. The fair value of the Company's fixed interest rate debt was estimated using Level 2 inputs, primarily discounted cash flow models, based on estimated current rates offered for similar debt under current market conditions for the Company. 6. i INCOME
TAXES
The Company's reported tax rate was i 18.5% and i 18.1%
during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and i 17.9% and i 14.9%
during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The provision for taxes is based upon using the Company's projected annual effective tax rate of i 20.5% and i 20.0%
before non-recurring discrete tax items during 2020 and 2019, respectively. The difference between the Company's projected annual effective tax rate and the reported tax rate is primarily related to the timing of excess tax benefits associated with stock option exercises.

/ As
of June 30, 2020, the Company had $ i 712.1 million of additional borrowings available under its Credit Agreement, and the Company maintained $ i 127.3
million of cash and cash equivalents. On January 24, 2020, the Company issued $50 million fifteen-year Senior notes with a fixed interest rate of 3.19%, which will mature January 24, 2035. The terms of the Senior Notes are consistent with the previously issued Senior Notes as described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company used the proceeds from the sale of the notes to refinance existing indebtedness and for other general corporate
purposes. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants at June 30, 2020. The Company has designated the EUR 125 million i 1.47% Senior Notes and the EUR 135 million 1.30% Senior
Notes as a hedge of a portion of its net investment in euro-denominated foreign subsidiaries to reduce foreign currency risk associated with the net investment. Changes in the carrying value of this debt resulting from fluctuations in the euro to U.S. dollar exchange rate are recorded as foreign currency translation adjustments within other comprehensive income (loss). The Company recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) related to this net investment hedge an unrealized loss of $ i 2.1
million and $ i 1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and an unrealized loss of $ i 0.1
million and an unrealized gain $ i 1.0 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company has a loss of $ i 1.6
million recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of June 30, 2020.
Other Local Arrangements
In April 2018, two of the Company's non-U.S. pension plans issued loans totaling $ i 39.6 million
(Swiss franc i 38 million) to a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The loans have the same terms

8. i SHARE
REPURCHASE PROGRAM AND TREASURY STOCK
In November 2018, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an additional $ i 2 billion to the share repurchase program, which has $ i 1.1
billion of remaining availability as of June 30, 2020. The share repurchases are expected to be funded from cash generated from operating activities, borrowings, and cash balances. Repurchases will be made through open market transactions, and the amount and timing of purchases will depend on business and market conditions, the stock price, trading restrictions, the level of acquisition activity and other factors. The Company did not repurchase any shares in the three month period ended June 30, 2020 and has purchased i 28.9
million shares since the inception of the program in 2004 through June 30, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company spent $ i 200
million and $ i 372.5 million on the repurchase of i 268,161
shares and i 539,326 shares at an average price per share of $ i 745.80 and
$ i 690.66, respectively. The Company also reissued i 114,109

As

million to its non-U.S. pension plans during the year ended December 31, 2020. This estimate may change based upon several factors, including fluctuations in currency exchange rates, actual returns on plan assets and changes in legal requirements.

15. i CONTINGENCIES
The

Management does not expect that any of such proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
| |
Item
2. | Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.
General
Our interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2020. Changes in local currency exclude the effect of currency exchange rate fluctuations. Local currency amounts are determined by translating current and previous year consolidated financial information at an index utilizing historical currency exchange rates. We believe local currency information provides a helpful assessment of business performance and a useful measure of results between periods. We do not, nor do we suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. We present non-GAAP financial measures in reporting our financial results to provide investors with an additional analytical tool to evaluate
our operating results.
We also include in the discussion below disclosures of immaterial qualitative factors that are not quantified. Although the impact of such factors is not considered material, we believe these disclosures can be useful in evaluating our operating results.
COVID-19
The 2019 Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has resulted in millions of confirmed cases throughout the world and in all countries where we conduct business. The outbreak has caused many governments to implement stay-at-home orders, quarantines and significant restrictions on travel. Several governments have also implemented work restrictions that prohibit many employees from going to their customary work locations and which require these employees to work remotely if possible. The quarantines, travel bans, work and other restrictions were initially put in
place on a national level in China in January 2020, and with the global spread of the virus, subsequently adopted in other countries and regions during the first quarter of 2020 with many restrictions commencing in Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, and South America. Many of these restrictions remained in place during the second quarter of 2020.
The health and safety of our employees and business partners has been our highest priority throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, and we have implemented several preventative and protective measures relating to social distancing, hygiene, health monitoring, personal protective equipment, split shifts and remote work. We have also implemented business continuity plans and have been able to continue to support our customers with their essential businesses such as in life sciences, food manufacturing, chemicals (e.g. sanitizers, disinfectants, soaps etc.), food retail and transportation
and logistics. Our production and logistics facilities are currently operational, and our office-based employees have been able to work remotely in adherence to applicable jurisdictional stay-at-home orders. Our supply chain is currently continuing with minimal interruption, and we currently maintain adequate product inventory levels and safety stock for certain components. We quickly adapted to leverage our digital and remote sales and service capabilities, while also meeting delivery requirements with our global supply chain. Our service organization also continues to provide on-site and remote customer support to facilitate uptime, productivity and regulatory compliance.
We have also implemented various temporary cost containment measures related to workforce management and discretionary spending. Our workforce management measures
primarily include reduced work hours, salary freezes, and voluntary senior leadership salary reductions.
We maintain adequate liquidity consisting of approximately $712.1 million of additional borrowings available under our Credit Agreement, and $127.3 million of cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2020. As further described in the Risk Factors section of this Form 10-Q, COVID-19 presents several risks to our business. For example, businesses can be shutdown, supply chains can be interrupted,
slowed, or rendered inoperable, and individuals can become ill, quarantined, or otherwise unable to work and/or travel due to health reasons or governmental restrictions. COVID-19 also interferes with general commercial activity related to our supply chain and customer base. In addition, it is expected that COVID-19 will negatively affect the global economy and our customers' businesses, which will likely result in delayed or reduced purchases from us. Some customers may also have difficulty meeting their payment obligations to us, resulting in late payments or an inability of some customers to make payments at all.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, COVID-19 had a negative impact on our business, primarily related to reduced customer demand in all regions. We remain cautious as uncertainties related to COVID-19 and the resulting impact to the economy continues in all
regions of the world and market conditions may also change quickly. With the global spread of the virus and related negative impact to the global economy, we expect reduced global sales volume due to lower customer demand in future quarters. The longer-term effects on our business will be impacted by the global economy and any recession implications in different regions of the world. While it is extremely difficult to estimate the extent and duration of any COVID-19 implications, the effects on our business, results of operations and financial condition could be material.

Net
sales
Net sales were $690.7 million and $731.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and 2019, and $1.3 billion and $1.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. This represents a decrease of 6% and 5% in U.S. dollars
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Excluding the effect of currency exchange rate fluctuations, or in local currencies, net sales decreased 4% and 3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic
and related reduction in global customer demand on our operations. While we saw increased business activity in China during the three months ended June 30, 2020 that benefited from increased customer demand and the easing of governmental restrictions as a result of COVID-19, we remain cautious as uncertainties relating to COVID-19 and the global economy continue and market conditions may change quickly. We expect net sales in local currencies will be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic related to unfavorable economic conditions and reduced customer demand in future quarters. Net sales by geographic destination for the three and six months ended June 30,
2020 in U.S. dollars decreased in the Americas 8% and 3%, in Europe 6% and 7% and in Asia/Rest of World 2% and 6%, respectively. Our net sales by geographic destination for the three months ended June 30, 2020 in local currencies decreased in the Americas 7%, in Europe 5% and increased 1% in Asia/Rest of World, respectively. Net sales by geographic destination for the six months ended June
30, 2020 in local currencies decreased in the Americas 2%, in Europe 5% and in Asia/Rest of World 3%, respectively. Net sales in Asia/Rest of World in local currency for the three months ended June 30, 2020 includes local currency growth in China of 8% that benefited from increased customer demand and the easing of governmental restrictions as a result of COVID-19. A discussion of sales by operating segment is included below. As described in Note 19 to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, our net sales comprise product sales of precision instruments and related services. Service revenues are primarily derived from repair and other services,
including regulatory compliance qualification, calibration, certification, preventative maintenance and spare parts. Net sales of products decreased 5% in U.S. dollars and 3% in local currencies for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and decreased 6% in U.S. dollars and 4% in local currencies for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. Service revenue (including spare parts) decreased by 7%
in U.S. dollars and 6% in local currencies for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and decreased 2% in U.S. dollars and 1% in local currencies for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. Net sales of our laboratory products and services, which represented approximately 54% of our total net sales decreased 5% in U.S. dollars and 4%
in local currencies for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and decreased 3% in U.S. dollars and 2% in local currencies for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The local currency decrease in net sales of our laboratory-related products reflects reduced customer demand, which was negatively impacted by laboratory closures due to COVID-19, offset in part by growth in process analytics, automated chemistry and pipettes. Net sales of our industrial products and services, which represented approximately 40% of our total net sales decreased 5% in U.S. dollars and 3%
in local currencies for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and decreased 6% in U.S. dollars and 4% in local currencies for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The local currency decrease in net sales of our industrial-related products for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 includes declines in product inspection and certain core industrial product categories, offset in part by strong growth in transportation and logistics project activity. China also experienced increased business activity that benefited from increased customer demand and the easing of governmental restrictions
as a result of COVID-19. Net sales in our food retailing products and services, which represented approximately 6% of our total net sales decreased 13% in U.S. dollars and 11% in local currencies for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and decreased 15% in U.S. dollars and 14% in local currencies for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decline in food retailing is primarily due to challenging market conditions. Gross
profit
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 57.6% and 57.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and 57.6% and 57.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for products was 59.6% and 59.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 60.2% and 59.9% for the six months ended June 30,
2020 and 2019, respectively. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales for services (including spare parts) was 50.7% and 48.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 49.3% and 48.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2020
and 2019, respectively. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily reflects benefits from temporary cost savings measures, favorable price realization and material cost reductions, offset in part by reduced sales volume, higher transportation costs and unfavorable business mix. Research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses
Research and development expenses as a percentage of net sales was 4.5% and 5.0% for the three
months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and was 4.9% and 5.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Research and development expenses decreased 15% in both U.S. dollars and in local currencies for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and decreased 10% in both U.S. dollars and
in local currencies for the six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. The decrease relates to the timing of project activity and benefits from our temporary cost savings measures. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were 27.5% and 28.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, and was 29.0% for both the
six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased 7% in both U.S. dollars and in local currencies for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and decreased 5% in U.S. dollars and 4% in local currencies for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The
local currency decrease includes benefits from our temporary and ongoing cost savings initiatives and lower cash incentive expense. Amortization, interest expense, other charges (income), net and taxes
Amortization expense was $13.9 million and $12.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $27.9 million and $24.5 million for the six months ended June 30,
2020 and 2019, respectively. Interest expense was $9.6 million and $8.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $19.8 million and $18.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019,
respectively. Other charges (income), net includes non-service pension costs (benefits), (gains) losses from foreign currency transactions and hedging activities, interest income and other items. Nonservice pension benefits was $3.0 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $5.9 million and $2.3 million and for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our reported tax rate was 18.5% and 18.1% during the three months ended June
30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 17.9% and 14.9% during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The provision for taxes is based upon using our projected annual effective tax rate of 20.5% and 20.0% before non-recurring discrete tax items for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The difference between our projected annual effective tax rate and the reported tax rate is related to the timing of excess tax benefits associated with stock option exercises.

2020 and decreased 6% in U.S. dollars and 3% in local currency during the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. The increase in local currency net sales to external customers during the three months ended June 30, 2020 reflects growth in industrial and laboratory related products that benefited from increased customer demand and the easing of COVID-19 governmental restrictions, while net sales to external customers for the six months ended June 30, 2020 were negatively impacted by reduced customer demand as a result of COVID-19. Significant uncertainty remains relating to COVID-19 and the local Chinese economy,
and market conditions may change quickly.
Segment profit decreased $1.5 million and $15.5 million for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019. The decrease in segment profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily reflects the decline in total net sales as well as unfavorable foreign currency translation, offset in part by our temporary cost savings measures.

Segment profit decreased $1.2 million and $3.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in 2019.
The decrease in segment profit for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 primarily reflects the decline in net sales as well as unfavorable foreign currency translation, offset in part by our temporary cost savings measures. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is our ability to generate sufficient cash to meet our obligations and commitments. Sources of liquidity includes, cash flows from operating activities, available borrowings under our Credit Agreement, the ability to obtain appropriate financing and our cash and cash equivalent balances. Currently, our financing requirements are primarily driven by working capital requirements, capital expenditures, share repurchases and acquisitions.
Cash provided by operating activities totaled $248.8 million
during the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $225.9 million in the corresponding period in 2019. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2020 benefited from the timing of working capital including strong cash collections. This was partly offset by changes in inventories during the six months ended June 30, 2020 versus the prior year comparable period as we increased inventory levels given uncertainties related to potential COVID-19 implications on our global supply chain. Cash flows provided by operating activities were also reduced by our lower net earnings as compared
to the prior year period. Capital expenditures are made primarily for investments in information systems and technology, machinery, equipment and the purchase and expansion of facilities. Our capital expenditures totaled $37.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $44.7 million in the corresponding period in 2019. We expect to make net investments in new or expanded manufacturing facilities of $15 million to $20 million over the next two years.

As
of June 30, 2020, approximately $712.1 million of additional borrowings was available under our Credit Agreement, and we maintained $127.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. Changes in exchange rates between the currencies in which we generate cash flows and the currencies in which our borrowings are denominated affect our liquidity. In addition, because we borrow in a variety of currencies, our debt balances fluctuate due to changes in exchange rates. Further, we do not have any downgrade triggers related to ratings from rating agencies that would accelerate the maturity dates of our debt. We were in compliance with its debt covenants at June 30, 2020. We currently believe that
cash flow from operating activities, together with liquidity available under our Credit Agreement and local working capital facilities and our cash balances, will be sufficient to fund currently anticipated working capital needs and capital spending requirements for the foreseeable future.
We continue to explore potential acquisitions. In connection with any acquisition, we may incur additional indebtedness. During the six month ended June 30, 2019, we paid $10 million related to the settlement of the Biotix acquisition contingent consideration as further described in Note 4 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. In April 2018, two of our non-U.S. pension plans issued loans totaling $39.6 million (Swiss
franc 38 million) to a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The loans have the same terms and conditions which include an interest rate of Swiss franc LIBOR plus 87.5 basis points. The loans were renewed for one year in April 2020. Share Repurchase Program
In November 2018, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an additional $2.0 billion to the share repurchase program which has $1.1 billion of remaining common shares to be repurchased under the program as of June 30,
2020. The share repurchases are expected to be funded from cash generated from operating activities, borrowings, and existing cash balances.
Repurchases will be made through open market transactions, and the amount and timing of purchases will depend on business and market conditions, stock price, trading restrictions, the level of acquisition activity, and other factors.
We did not repurchase any shares in the three month period ended June 20, 2020, and have purchased 28.9
million shares since the inception of the program through June 30, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, we spent $200 million and $372.5 million on the repurchase of 268,161 and 539,326 shares at an average price per share of $745.80 and $690.66, respectively. We also reissued 114,109
shares and 226,595 shares held in treasury upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Effect of Currency on Results of Operations
Our earnings are affected by changing exchange rates. We are most sensitive to changes in the exchange rates between the Swiss franc, euro, and U.S. dollar. We have more Swiss franc expenses than we do Swiss franc sales because we develop and manufacture
products in Switzerland that we sell globally, and have a number of corporate functions located in Switzerland. When the Swiss franc strengthens against our other trading currencies, particularly the U.S. dollar and euro, our earnings decrease. We also have significantly more sales in the euro than we do expenses. When the euro weakens against the U.S. dollar and Swiss franc, our earnings also decreases. We estimate a 1% strengthening of the Swiss franc against the euro would reduce our earnings before tax by approximately $1.6 million to $1.8 million annually.
We also conduct business in many geographies throughout the world, including Asia Pacific, the United Kingdom, Eastern Europe, Latin America, and Canada. Fluctuations in these currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar can also affect our operating results. The most significant of these currency exposures is the Chinese Renminbi. The impact on our earnings before
tax of the Chinese Renminbi weakening 1% against the U.S. dollar is a reduction of approximately $1.7 million to $1.9 million annually.
In addition to the effects of exchange rate movements on operating profits, our debt levels can fluctuate due to changes in exchange rates, particularly between the U.S. dollar and the Swiss franc. Based on our outstanding debt at June 30, 2020, we estimate that a 5% weakening of the U.S. dollar against the currencies in which our debt is denominated would result in an increase of approximately $22.3 million in the reported U.S. dollar value of our debt.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
| |
Item 1. | Legal Proceedings. None |
For
the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 there were no material changes from risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, except the following update.
The COVID-19 outbreak has and will likely continue to negatively affect various aspects of our business, including our workforce and supply chain, and make it more difficult and expensive to meet our obligations to our customers, and has and will likely continue to result in reduced demand from our customers as their businesses may also be negatively affected.
Our
global operations are susceptible to global events that could have an adverse effect on our business results and financial condition.
For instance, we are susceptible to a widespread outbreak of an illness or other health issue, such as the ongoing 2019 Coronavirus outbreak ("COVID-19"), and which now has since spread globally, resulting in millions of confirmed cases throughout the world and in all countries where we conduct business. The outbreak has caused many governments to implement stay-at-home orders, quarantines and significant restrictions on travel. Several governments have also implemented work restrictions that prohibit many employees from going to their customary work locations and which require these employees to work remotely if possible. The quarantines, travel bans, work and other restrictions were initially put in place on a national level in China
in January 2020, and with the global spread of the virus, subsequently adopted in many other countries and regions throughout the first half of 2020 with many restrictions commencing in Asia Pacific, Europe, North America and South America. Many of these restrictions remained in place during the second quarter of 2020.
As a result of pandemic outbreaks, including COVID-19, businesses can be shut down, supply chains can be interrupted, slowed, or rendered inoperable, and individuals can become ill, quarantined, or otherwise unable to work and/or travel due to health reasons or governmental restrictions. COVID-19 interferes with general commercial activity related to our supply chain and customer base. In addition, it is expected that COVID-19 will negatively affect the global economy and our customers' businesses, which will result in delayed or reduced purchases from us. Some
customers may also have difficulty meeting their payment obligations to us, resulting in late payments or an inability of some customers to make payments at all.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, COVID-19 had a negative impact on our business, primarily related to reduced global customer demand. We remain cautious as uncertainties related to COVID-19 and the resulting impact to the economy continues in all regions of the world and market conditions may also change quickly. With the global spread of the virus and related negative impact to the global economy, we expect reduced global sales volume from lower customer demand in future quarters. Our operations could be negatively affected further if our employees who are currently not subject to stay-at-home or work restriction orders are quarantined or become
ill as a result of exposure to COVID-19, or if they become subject to governmental COVID-19 curfews or stay-at-home orders. The longer-term effects on our business will be impacted by the global economy and any recession implications in different regions of the world. While it is extremely difficult to estimate the extent and duration of any COVID-19 implications, the effects on our business, results of operations and financial condition could be material.
