January 2009 Order Comments:

Emerson's order rates for the trailing three-month period ending January 2009 continued the negative trend that began in the fourth calendar quarter of 2008 as customers curtailed capital spending and reduced inventory levels at an accelerated rate. Currency exchange rates had a negative impact of approximately 6 percentage points on order growth. We are experiencing another significant step-down in our residential, non-residential, and capital related businesses. Over the last 45 days (including February) we have seen a clear weakening trend in our global markets. As we mentioned during our February 6th Investor Conference in New York City, forecasting has become very challenging and tough.

Process Management orders declined and were down 10 to 15 percent overall. Currency exchange rates had a negative impact of approximately 13 percentage points on order growth including a negative backlog revaluation impact due to the stronger U.S. dollar. The trailing three-month underlying orders excluding currency trended negative for Process Management. The chemical and refining end markets have slowed while the power market remains strong. Capital investments continue broadly across industries to address environmental and regulatory requirements, as well as to improve overall plant efficiencies.

Industrial Automation orders weakened amid the slowdown in global capital spending patterns. Currency negatively impacted orders by approximately 6 percentage points.

Network Power orders continued to show strength in the China power systems business, driven by infrastructure investments in areas such as telecommunications, data centers and wind power. This strength was more than offset by broad weakness across the rest of the business segment.

Broad weakness across residential, commercial and refrigeration end markets negatively impacted Climate Technologies order trends.

Challenging U.S. residential, non-residential and consumer end market conditions continued to impact Appliance and Tools order trends negatively.
