Revision of financial statements

During Q3 2015, the Company identified an error related to the classification of US employees' social benefits expenses. Previously, the Company classified these expenses in ‘general and administrative expenses’ instead of classifying a part of them in ‘Cost of goods’ (product and services) for employees allocated to this line item. This change in classification also impacted the capitalization of inventory balances. There was no material impact on the statement of cash flows.

The error only impacts one segment of the Company, Heat Transfer Services and Products. The Company will revise previously reported segment information in its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The Company assessed the materiality of this error in accordance with the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin 99 and Accounting Standards Codification Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, and concluded that the previously issued financial statements were not materially misstated. In accordance with the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin, the Company will correct these errors by revising the affected financial statements in the Company’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 20-F.

Following is the effect of the revision on the Company’s previously reported results:
