ALLEGION PLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed and consolidated financial statements of Allegion plc, an Irish public limited company, and its consolidated subsidiaries ("Allegion" or "the Company"), reflect the consolidated operations of the Company and have been prepared in accordance with United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") interim reporting requirements. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed and consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for full financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Allegion Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed and consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated unaudited results for the interim periods presented.


Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, "Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity," which amends the definition of a discontinued operation in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 205-20 (Presentation of Financial Statements — Discontinued Operations) and requires entities to disclose additional information about disposal transactions that do not meet the discontinued operations criteria. ASU 2014-08 redefines a discontinued operation as a component or group of components of an entity that (1) has been disposed of by sale or other than by sale or is classified as held for sale and (2) represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. According to the ASU, a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and results includes the disposal of a major geographical area, a major line of business, a major equity investment, or other major parts of an entity. The ASU is effective prospectively for disposals or components classified as held for sale in periods on or after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have a significant impact on the Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." ASU 2014-09 is the result of a joint project between the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue and to develop a common revenue standard for GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") that would remove inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements, provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets, provide more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements and simplify the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. On July 9, 2015 the FASB voted to defer the effective date by one year to the interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016. The Company is assessing what impact ASU 2014-09 will have on the Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, "Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period." ASU 2014-12 requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant date fair value of the award. This update further clarifies that compensation cost should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. The ASU is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. The requirements of ASU 2014-12 are not expected to have a significant impact on the Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, "Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern." ASU 2014-15 provides guidance on management’s responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 will be effective in

(Unaudited)


the fourth quarter of 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The requirements of ASU 2014-15 are not expected to have a significant impact on the Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, "Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs." This standard amends existing guidance to require the presentation of debt issuance costs in the balance sheet as a deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability instead of as an asset. It is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted. The requirements of ASU 2015-03 are not expected to have a significant impact on the Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements. As of June 30, 2015 the Company had $22.3 million in unamortized debt issuance costs.

In May 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-07, "Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent)." ASU 2015-07 removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient and removes the requirement to make certain disclosures for these investments. The standard will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, but early adoption is permitted. The Company is assessing what impact ASU 2015-07 will have on the Condensed and Consolidated Financial Statements.


Note 3 – Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. In the fourth quarter of 2014, the Company changed its method of inventory costing for certain inventory in its Americas operating segment to the first-in first-out (FIFO) method from the last-in first-out (LIFO) method. The Company's other operating segments also determine inventory cost using the FIFO method.
The major classes of inventory were as follows:

Intangible asset amortization expense was $3.8 million and $4.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Future estimated amortization expense on existing intangible assets in each of the next five years amounts to approximately $7.6 million for full year 2015, $7.6 million for 2016, $7.6 million for 2017, $7.6 million for 2018, and $7.6 million for 2019.


Note 6 – Acquisitions

In February 2015, the Company made an investment in iDevices, a brand and development partner in the Internet of Things industry. The investment is accounted for using the equity method.

In April 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of certain assets of Zero International, Inc. ("Zero"). Zero manufactures door and window products for commercial spaces and products include sealing systems, such as sound control, fire and smoke protection, threshold applications, lites, door louvers, intumescent products, photo-luminescent and flood barrier for doors.

In May 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of the assets of Brio, a division of RMD Industries Pty Ltd ("Brio"). Brio is a designer and manufacturer of sliding and folding door hardware for commercial and residential spaces in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Total consideration paid for the acquisitions of Zero and Brio was $43.0 million. These acquisitions were not material to the Company's condensed and consolidated financial statements, either individually or in the aggregate, and therefore actual and proforma disclosures under the applicable accounting guidance have not been presented. The summary of net tangible and intangible assets acquired is as follows:

The purchase price allocations for the Zero and Brio acquisitions are pending completion of valuations for certain acquired intangible assets, finalization of working capital adjustments and calculation of deferred tax balances. The Company expects these items to be completed in the second half of 2015. These acquisitions are accounted for as business combinations.

In June 2015, the Company signed a definitive agreement to acquire SimonsVoss Technologies GmbH ("SimonsVoss") for approximately $236.0 million. SimonsVoss, headquartered in Munich, Germany, is an electronic lock company in the European electronic market segment. SimonsVoss generated sales of approximately $69.2 million in 2014. The Company plans to fund the acquisition through existing cash on hand and borrowings under its Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. The Company expects the transaction to close in the third quarter of 2015, subject to regulatory approval.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

The Company has a credit agreement providing for (i) a $975.0 million Senior Secured Term Loan Facility maturing on October 15, 2019 (the "Term Loan Facility") and (ii) a $500.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (the "Revolver") maturing in 2018. The Company refers to these credit facilities as its "Senior Secured Credit Facilities." Allegion plc is the primary borrower for the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

Outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities currently accrue interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for borrowings under the Revolver and the Term Loan Facility is subject to a credit facility rating-based pricing grid with the LIBOR ranging from 1.50% to 2.00%. The margin for the Term Loan Facility borrowings was 1.75% as of June 30, 2015.

To manage the Company's exposure to fluctuations in LIBOR rates, the Company has interest rate swaps for $300.0 million of the Company's variable rate $975.0 million Term Loan Facility. Swaps with notional amounts totaling $275.0 million were effective in January 2015 and expire in September 2017 and swaps with notional amounts totaling $25.0 million were effective in January 2015 and expire in December 2016. The swaps exchange 90-day LIBOR for a fixed interest rate.
The Company repaid $24.4 million of principal on its Term Loan Facility during the six months ended June 30, 2015 in accordance with the terms of its senior secured credit facility. At June 30, 2015, the Company did not have any borrowings outstanding under the Revolver and had $27.3 million of letters of credit outstanding.

Senior Notes

A wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company has issued $300.0 million of 5.75% senior notes due 2021 (the "Senior Notes"). The Senior Notes accrue interest at the rate of 5.75% per annum, payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each year. The Senior Notes mature on October 1, 2021.

At June 30, 2015, the weighted-average interest rate for borrowings was 2.3% under the Term Loan Facility (including the effect of interest rate swaps) and 5.75% under the Senior Notes.


Note 8 – Financial Instruments

In the normal course of business, the Company uses various financial instruments, including derivative instruments, to manage the risks associated with interest and currency rate exposures. These financial instruments are not used for trading or speculative purposes.

On the date a derivative contract is entered into, the Company designates the derivative instrument as a cash flow hedge of a forecasted transaction, a cash flow hedge of a recognized asset or liability, or as an undesignated derivative. The Company formally documents its hedge relationships, including identification of the derivative instruments and the hedged items, as well as its risk

management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transaction. This process includes linking derivative instruments that are designated as hedges to specific assets, liabilities or forecasted transactions.

The fair market value of derivative instruments is determined through market-based valuations and may not be representative of the actual gains or losses that will be recorded when these instruments mature due to future fluctuations in the markets in which they are traded.

The Company assesses at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the derivatives used in cash flow hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting the changes in the cash flows of the hedged item. To the extent the derivative is deemed to be a highly effective hedge, the fair market value changes of the instrument are recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Any ineffective portion of a derivative instrument’s change in fair value is recorded in Net earnings in the period of change. If the hedging relationship ceases to be highly effective, or it becomes probable that a forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, the hedging relationship will be undesignated and any future gains and losses on the derivative instrument will be recorded in Net earnings.
Currency Hedging Instruments
The gross notional amount of the Company’s currency derivatives was $244.8 million and $494.5 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, gains of $0.8 million and $1.6 million, net of tax, respectively, were included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the fair value of the Company’s currency derivatives designated as cash flow hedges. The amount expected to be reclassified into Net earnings over the next twelve months is a gain of $0.8 million. The actual amounts that will be reclassified to Net earnings may vary from this amount as a result of changes in market conditions. Gains and losses associated with the Company’s currency derivatives not designated as hedges are recorded in Net earnings as changes in fair value occur. At June 30, 2015, the maximum term of the Company’s currency derivatives was less than one year.
Interest Rate Swaps
In June 2014, the Company entered into forward starting interest rate swaps to fix the interest rate paid during the contract period for $300.0 million of the Company's variable rate $975.0 million Term Loan Facility. Swaps with notional amounts totaling $275.0 million effective January 2015 expire in September 2017 and swaps with notional amounts totaling $25.0 million effective January 2015 expire in December 2016. These interest rate swaps met the criteria to be accounted for as cash flow hedges of variable rate interest payments. Consequently, the changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps were recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive loss. At June 30, 2015, $2.0 million of losses were recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these interest rate swaps and none are expected to be reclassified into Interest expense over the next twelve months.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The counterparties to the Company’s forward contracts and swaps consist of a number of investment grade major international financial institutions. The Company could be exposed to losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties. However, the credit ratings and the concentration of risk in these financial institutions are monitored on a continuous basis and present no significant credit risk to the Company.


Note 9 – Pensions and Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions

The Company sponsors several U.S. defined benefit and defined contribution plans covering substantially all of its U.S. employees. Additionally, the Company has non-U.S. defined benefit and defined contribution plans covering eligible non-U.S. employees. Postretirement benefits, other than pensions, provide healthcare benefits, and in some instances, life insurance benefits for certain eligible employees.
Pension Plans
The noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering non-collectively bargained U.S. employees provide benefits on an average pay formula while most plans for collectively bargained U.S. employees provide benefits on a flat dollar benefit formula. The non-U.S. pension plans generally provide benefits based on earnings and years of service. The Company also maintains additional other supplemental plans for officers and other key employees.

Note 10 – Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Fair value measurements are based on a framework that utilizes the inputs market participants use to determine the fair value of an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy to prioritize those inputs. The fair value hierarchy is comprised of three levels that are described below:
Level 1 – Inputs based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs based on little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities.
The fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable inputs are obtained from independent sources and can be validated by a third party, whereas unobservable inputs reflect assumptions regarding what a third party would use in pricing an asset or liability based on the best information available under the circumstances. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company determines the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities using the following methodologies:
Marketable securities – These securities include investments in publicly traded stock of non-U.S. companies held by non-U.S. subsidiaries of the Company. The fair value is obtained for the securities based on observable market prices quoted on public stock exchanges.

11

ALLEGION PLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(Unaudited)


Foreign currency contracts – These instruments include foreign currency contracts for non-functional currency balance sheet exposures. The fair value of the foreign currency contracts are determined based on a pricing model that uses spot rates and forward prices from actively quoted currency markets that are readily accessible and observable.
Interest rate swaps – These instruments include forward-starting interest rate swap contracts for $300.0 million of the Company's variable rate debt. The fair value of the derivative instruments are determined based on quoted prices for the Company's swaps, which are not considered an active market.
Debt – These securities are recorded at cost and include senior notes maturing through 2021. The fair value of the long-term debt instruments is obtained based on observable market prices quoted on public exchanges for similar instruments.
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short-term borrowings are a reasonable estimate of their fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

These methodologies used by the Company to determine the fair value of its financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2015 are the same as those used at December 31, 2014. There have been no significant transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 categories.

Stock Options/RSUs

Eligible participants may receive (i) stock options, (ii) RSUs or (iii) a combination of both stock options and RSUs. Grants issued during the six months ended June 30 were as follows:

The fair value of each of the Company's stock option and RSU awards is expensed on a straight-line basis over the required service period, which is generally the 3-year vesting period. However, for stock options and RSUs granted to retirement eligible employees, the Company recognizes expense for the fair value at the grant date.

The average fair value of the stock options granted is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following assumptions were used during the six months ended June 30:

%

%
Expected life

6.0 years


Expected volatility is based on the weighted average of the implied volatility of a group of the Company’s peers due to the lack of trading history for the Company's ordinary shares. The risk-free rate of return is based on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond on the date the award is granted with a maturity equal to the expected life of the award. Historical peer data is used to estimate forfeitures within the Company’s valuation model. The expected life of the Company’s stock option awards is derived from the simplified approach based on the weighted average time to vest and the remaining contractual term and represents the period of time that awards are expected to be outstanding.

Performance Shares

The Company has a Performance Share Program for key employees. The program provides awards in the form of PSUs based on performance against pre-established objectives. The annual target award level is expressed as a number of the Company's ordinary shares. All PSUs are settled in the form of ordinary shares unless deferred. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company granted PSUs with a maximum award level of approximately 0.1 million shares.

In March 2014, the Company’s Compensation Committee granted PSUs that were based 50% upon a performance condition, measured at each performance period by earnings per share ("EPS") growth, and 50% upon a market condition, measured by the Company’s relative total shareholder return ("TSR") as compared to the TSR of the industrial group of companies in the S&P 400 Capital Goods Index over the one-year, two-year, and three-year performance periods. The fair values of the market condition were estimated using a Monte Carlo Simulation approach in a risk-neutral framework based upon historical volatility, risk-free rates and correlation matrix.

In March 2015, the Company's Compensation Committee granted PSU's that were based 50% upon a performance condition, measured at the end of the performance period by EPS growth, and 50% upon a market condition, measured by the Company’s relative TSR as compared to the TSR of the industrial group of companies in the S&P 400 Capital Goods Index over the three-year performance period. The fair value of the market condition was estimated using a Monte Carlo Simulation approach in a risk-neutral framework based upon historical volatility, risk-free rates and correlation matrix.

In addition, the Company incurred other non-qualified restructuring charges of $0.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 in conjunction with the plan, which represents costs that are directly attributable to restructuring activities, but do not fall into the severance, exit or disposal category.

Other Restructuring Plans
Other restructuring charges of $0.3 million and $0.8 million were recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 as part of prior restructuring plans. These charges primarily relate to workforce reductions in an effort to increase efficiencies across multiple lines of business.

In February 2015, the Venezuelan government announced changes to its exchange rate system that included the launch of a new, market-based system called the Marginal Currency System, or “SIMADI.” During the six months ended June 30, 2015 the Company recorded a charge of $2.8 million in order to remeasure net monetary assets at the SIMADI rate. This loss is within Exchange (gain) loss in the table above.


Note 15 – Income Taxes

The effective income tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 22.6% and 29.7%. The decrease in the effective income tax rate compared to 2014 is primarily due to favorable changes in the mix of income earned in lower rate jurisdictions.

The effective income tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 22.4% and 29.8%. The decrease in the effective income tax rate compared to 2014 is primarily due to favorable changes in the mix of income earned in lower rate jurisdictions.

These losses were mainly related to lease expense and other miscellaneous expenses from previously sold businesses.


Note 17 – Earnings Per Share (EPS)

Basic EPS is calculated by dividing Net earnings attributable to Allegion plc by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the applicable period. Diluted EPS is calculated after adjusting the denominator of the basic EPS calculation for the effect of all potentially dilutive ordinary shares, which in the Company’s case, includes shares issuable under share-based compensation plans.

The following table summarizes the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding for basic and diluted earnings per share calculations for the three and six months ended June 30:

Note 18 – Business Segment Information

The Company classifies its businesses into the following three reportable segments based on industry and market focus: Americas, EMEIA and Asia Pacific.

Segment operating income is the measure of profit and loss that the Company’s chief operating decision maker uses to evaluate the financial performance of the business and as the basis for resource allocation, performance reviews, and compensation. For these reasons, the Company believes that Segment operating income represents the most relevant measure of segment profit and loss. The Company’s chief operating decision maker may exclude certain charges or gains, such as corporate charges and other special charges, from Operating income to arrive at a Segment operating income that is a more meaningful measure of profit and loss upon which to base its operating decisions. The Company defines Segment operating margin as Segment operating income as a percentage of Net revenues.

In the second quarter of 2014 management committed to a plan to sell a component of a business in the EMEIA region and reclassified historical results of the component to discontinued operations for all periods presented. The transaction closed in the third quarter of 2014.

Note 19 – Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in various litigations, claims and administrative proceedings, including those related to environmental and product warranty matters. Amounts recorded for identified contingent liabilities are estimates, which are reviewed periodically and adjusted to reflect additional information when it becomes available. Subject to the uncertainties inherent in estimating future costs for contingent liabilities, except as expressly set forth in this note, management believes that any liability which may result from these legal matters would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows of the Company.

Environmental Matters

The Company is dedicated to an environmental program to reduce the utilization and generation of hazardous materials during the manufacturing process and to remediate identified environmental concerns. As to the latter, the Company is currently engaged in site investigations and remediation activities to address environmental cleanup from past operations at current and former production facilities.

The Company is sometimes a party to environmental lawsuits and claims and from time to time receives notices of potential violations of environmental laws and regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and similar state authorities. It has also been identified as a potentially responsible party ("PRP") for cleanup costs associated with off-site waste disposal at federal Superfund and state remediation sites. For all such sites, there are other PRPs and, in most instances, the Company’s involvement is minimal.

In estimating its liability, the Company has assumed it will not bear the entire cost of remediation of any site to the exclusion of other PRPs who may be jointly and severally liable. The ability of other PRPs to participate has been taken into account, based on our understanding of the parties’ financial condition and probable contributions on a per site basis. Additional lawsuits and claims involving environmental matters are likely to arise from time to time in the future.

ALLEGION PLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(Unaudited)


During the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred $0.5 million and $0.4 million of expenses for environmental remediation at sites presently or formerly owned or leased by us. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred $2.3 million and $1.2 million of expenses for environmental remediation at sites presently or formerly owned or leased by us. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company has recorded reserves for environmental matters of $9.3 million and $8.8 million. Of these amounts, $2.6 million and $2.4 million relate to remediation of sites previously disposed by the Company. Environmental reserves are classified as Accrued expenses and other current liabilities or Other noncurrent liabilities based on their expected term. The Company's total current environmental reserve at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was $2.6 million and $2.2 million and the remainder is classified as non-current. Given the evolving nature of environmental laws, regulations and technology, the ultimate cost of future compliance is uncertain.

Warranty Liability

Standard product warranty accruals are recorded at the time of sale and are estimated based upon product warranty terms and historical experience. The Company assesses the adequacy of its liabilities and will make adjustments as necessary based on known or anticipated warranty claims, or as new information becomes available.

The changes in the standard product warranty liability for the six months ended June 30 were as follows:
