General

Altra Holdings, Inc. is the parent company of Altra Industrial Motion, Inc. ("Altra Industrial"), and owns 100% of Altra Industrial's outstanding capital stock. Altra Industrial, directly or indirectly, owns 100% of the capital stock of its 57 subsidiaries. The following chart illustrates a summary of our corporate structure:

[[Image Removed: LOGO]]

Although we were incorporated in Delaware in 2004, much of our current business has its roots with the prior acquisition by Colfax Corporation, or Colfax, of a series of power transmission businesses. In December 1996, Colfax acquired the electro-mechanical power transmission group of Zurn Technologies, Inc. Colfax subsequently acquired Industrial Clutch Corp. in May 1997, Nuttall Gear Corp. in July 1997 and the Boston Gear and Delroyd Worm Gear brands in August 1997 as part of Colfax's acquisition of Imo Industries, Inc. In February 2000, Colfax acquired Warner Electric, Inc., which sold products under the Warner Electric, Formsprag Clutch, Stieber, and Wichita Clutch brands. Colfax formed Power Transmission Holding LLC, or "PTH", in June 2004 to serve as a holding company for all of these power transmission businesses. Boston Gear was established in 1877, Warner Electric, Inc. in 1927, and Wichita Clutch in 1949.

On November 30, 2004, we acquired our original core business through the acquisition of PTH from Colfax. We refer to this transaction as the PTH Acquisition.

On October 22, 2004, The Kilian Company, or Kilian, a company formed at the direction of Genstar Capital, then the largest stockholder of Altra Holdings, acquired Kilian Manufacturing Corporation from Timken U.S. Corporation. At the completion of the PTH Acquisition, (i) all of the outstanding shares of Kilian capital stock were exchanged for shares of our capital stock and (ii) Kilian and its subsidiaries were transferred to Altra Industrial.

On February 10, 2006, we purchased all of the outstanding share capital of Hay Hall Holdings Limited, or Hay Hall. Hay Hall was a UK-based holding company established in 1996 that was focused primarily on the manufacture of couplings and clutch brakes.

On May 18, 2006, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Bear Linear Inc., or Warner Linear. Warner Linear manufactures high value-added linear actuators which are electromechanical power transmission devices designed to move and position loads linearly for mobile off-highway and industrial applications.

On April 5, 2007, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of TB Wood's Corporation, or TB Wood's. TB Wood's is an established designer, manufacturer and marketer of mechanical and electronic industrial power transmission products with a history dating back to 1857.

On October 5, 2007, we acquired substantially all of the assets of All Power Transmission Manufacturing, Inc., a manufacturer of universal joints.

On December 31, 2007, we sold the TB Wood's adjustable speed drives business, or Electronics Division. We sold the Electronics Division in order to continue our strategic focus on our core electro-mechanical power transmission business.

On May 29, 2011, we acquired substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Danfoss Bauer GmbH relating to its gearmotor business ("Bauer"). Bauer is a European manufacturer of high-quality gearmotors, offering engineered solutions to a variety of industries, including material handling, metals, food processing and energy. We refer to this transaction as the Bauer Acquisition.

On July 12, 2012, we announced that our subsidiary, Altra Industrial Motion Netherlands BV, acquired 85% of privately held Lamiflex do Brasil Equipamentos Industriais Ltda. or Lamiflex. Lamiflex is the premier Brazilian manufacturer of high-speed disc couplings, providing engineered solutions to a variety of industries, including oil and gas, power generation, metals and mining.

We are a leading global designer, producer and marketer of a wide range of electro-mechanical power transmission and motion control products with a presence in over 70 countries. Our global sales and marketing network includes over 1,000 direct OEM customers and over 3,000 distributor outlets. Our product portfolio includes industrial clutches and brakes, enclosed gear drives, open gearing, couplings, engineered bearing assemblies, linear components and other related products. Our products serve a wide variety of end markets including energy, general industrial, material handling, mining, transportation and turf and garden. We primarily sell our products to a wide range of OEMs and through long-standing relationships with industrial distributors such as Motion Industries, Applied Industrial Technologies, Kaman Industrial Technologies and W.W. Grainger.

While the power transmission industry has undergone some consolidation, we estimate that in 2012 the top five broad-based electro-mechanical power transmission companies represented approximately 20% of the U.S. power transmission market. The remainder of the power transmission industry remains fragmented with many small and family-owned companies that cater to a specific market niche often due to their narrow product offerings. We believe that consolidation in our industry will continue because of the increasing demand for global distribution channels, broader product mixes and better brand recognition to compete in this industry.

Our products, principal brands and markets and sample applications are set forth below:

Our Internet address is www.altramotion.com. By following the link "Investor Relations" and then "SEC filings" on our Internet website, we make available, free of charge, our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, our Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as soon as reasonably practicable after such forms are filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission. We are not including the information contained on or available through our website as a part of, or incorporating such information by reference into, this Form 10-Q.

Business Outlook

Our future financial performance depends, in large part, on conditions in the markets that we serve and on the U.S. and global economies in general. In the remainder of 2012, we expect to continue to focus on the execution of our long-term growth strategy, and will also continue to focus on maintaining a reduced cost base. Among other items, we expect our strategic initiatives in the second half of 2012 will continue to include investing in organic growth, seeking strategic acquisitions, targeting key underpenetrated geographic regions, entering new high-growth markets, enhancing our efficiency and productivity through the Altra Business System and focusing on the development of our people and processes.

In July 2012, we announced the acquisition of Brazil-based Lamiflex. We believe the Lamiflex acquisition will create business opportunities for us in certain previously underpenetrated geographic regions and will provide us with a platform from which we can further execute our acquisition strategy.

During the first half of 2012, we experienced continued strength across many of our end markets in North America and Asia and continued to gain market share through the development of new products that are in direct alignment with customers' needs. With the current weakness in Europe, we have accelerated our cost reduction and profit improvement plans across our European operations. We expect sales and profitability growth to moderate as a result of moderating economic conditions in North America and Asia, uncertain conditions in Europe, and substantial changes in exchange rates.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect our reported amounts of assets, revenues and expenses, as well as related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on past experiences and other assumptions we believe to be appropriate, and we evaluate these estimates on an on-going basis. With the exception of business combinations noted below, management believes there have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies since December 31, 2011. See the discussion of critical accounting policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The majority of the increase in sales during the second quarter of 2012 was due to improvements in the end markets we serve and the acquisition of Bauer. Of the increase in sales, approximately $18.0 million are additional sales related to the acquisition of Bauer and $3.6 million relates to the impact of price increases, offset by $2.5 million related to the economic downturn in Europe and $3.5 million related to the negative impact of foreign exchange rate changes attributed primarily to the Euro and British Pound Sterling rates compared to 2011. Early-cycle markets sales were flat to moderately increased while late-cycle markets such as mining and energy increased markedly. We expect that demand at our early-cycle markets will remain flat and growth in our late-cycle markets will remain consistent with the first half of 2012 or be slightly down. We expect to see continued increases in sales in 2012 compared to 2011.

   Gross Profit as a percentage of sales        29.8 %        29.3 %

The increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales was primarily due to productivity improvements, price increases implemented during the past twelve months, and low cost country sourcing, as well as better overhead absorption as a result of higher production levels, partially offset by the effect of foreign exchange of $0.9 million, primarily related to the Euro and British Pound Sterling. We expect our full year 2012 gross profit as a percentage of sales to continue to be higher than 2011.

                                                                  Quarter Ended

SG&A as a percentage of sales                        17.0 %         16.3 %

Of the increase in SG&A, $4.4 million was due to the acquisition of Bauer, as well as wage increases, offset by the favorable effect of foreign exchange of $0.5 million. SG&A as a percentage of sales increased modestly as a result of the acquisition of Bauer. We forecast modest increases to our SG&A costs as we invest in resources to enable us to grow faster in emerging markets and strategic industries in the remainder of 2012.

 Research and development expenses ("R&D")   $    2,942     $  2,426     $    516       21.3 %

R&D expenses increased on an absolute dollar basis but represented approximately 1% of sales in both periods. $0.4 million of the increase in R&D expense in 2012 is related to the acquisition of Bauer in May 2011. Increased R&D activities as well as headcount additions also contributed to the increase in R&D expense. We do not forecast significant variances in future periods.

Net interest expense increased due to the additional premium accrued related to the redemption of Senior Secured Notes in July 2012, offset by lower expense on the Senior Secured Notes, as a result of the repurchases in the third and fourth quarters of 2011. In the remainder of 2012, we expect our interest payments to be lower, offset by the write off of deferred financing costs, which will be recorded to interest expense.

Other non-operating expense (income) in the second quarter of 2012 relates primarily to the settlement of a tax matter with the State of New York for which we were entitled to be fully indemnified. The settlement was for less than the indemnification receivable we had recorded, resulting in an expense of $0.9 million. The remainder of expense in 2012, and income in 2011, relates to changes in foreign currency, primarily the British Pound Sterling and Euro

Provision for income taxes                     $    2,856       $  4,600       $ (1,744 )       -37.9 %
Provision for income taxes as a percentage
of income before income taxes                        21.2 %         34.0 %

The 2012 second quarter provision for income taxes, as a percentage of income before taxes, was significantly lower than that of the 2011 second quarter primarily due to the recognition of certain discrete items. Specifically during the second quarter of 2012, the Company settled a tax matter with the State of New York for which the Company was fully indemnified. Upon completion of the settlement, the Company released its reserve for tax, interest and penalties related to the unrecognized tax benefit. In addition, the Company recognized the completion of the 2010 limited scope audit, and the substantial completion of the 2007 audit by the Internal Revenue Service.
