12 XYL Investment Information

13 XYL stock has been fairly stationary since we bought the stock and is currently $0.42 above where we bought it. Why? Revenue did not increase at the expected rate in developed markets, especially Europe. Losses in foreign exchange conversions. However, acquisitions, which did better than planned, are expected to continue throughout 2013. Xylem highlights from February 2012 to January 2013

14 Strengths  Broad Portfolio  Water is >90% of total revenues  Partnerships- GE, Zenon, Toro, Mono  Established Brand Names (38)  BBB Rating Weaknesses  Lack of Available Information  Ability to hedge foreign currency transaction risks Opportunities  Acquisitions  Growth into Emerging Markets  Mergers  Aging Water Infrastructure Threats  Decelerated growth of global economies  Increased costs of raw materials  Regulatory Compliance SWOT Analysis

15 In order to maintain exposure in the growing water sector, we should hold Xylem Inc. due to their use of technology and more than 90% of their revenues coming from water. The global recession has prevented the takeoff we originally expected. However, as economies recover and more nations require infrastructure upgrades, we expect XYL’s stock price to increase.
