Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 31, 2005, Flowserve Corporation (the “Company”), Flowserve US, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and certain other subsidiaries of the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Furmanite Worldwide Inc. (“Furmanite”), a unit of Xanser Corp., and certain subsidiaries of Furmanite, whereby the Company sold assets of its General Services Group (the “GSG Assets”), which include general valve maintenance provided at local service centers and pressurized on-line repair services provided at customer sites. The purchase price for the GSG Assets was approximately $16 million in gross cash proceeds, which is subject to adjustment based on the determination of working capital of the GSG Assets after the closing. Among the assets excluded from the GSG Assets were approximately $12 million of net accounts receivable retained by the Company. In connection therewith, the Company entered into certain non-competition covenants with Furmanite regarding business relating to GSG Assets.

Item 2.06. Material Impairment.

On December 31, 2005, the Company concluded that a non-cash impairment charge is required in connection with Company’s disposition of GSG Assets as described in Item 1.01 of this Form 8-K. The Company estimates that the non-cash impairment charge (related to property, plant and equipment comprising GSG Assets) is expected to be approximately $18 million to be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2005. In addition to the charge described above, as disclosed in the Company’s Form 8-K filed on February 10, 2005, the Company recognized a goodwill impairment charge relating to the GSG Assets in the first quarter of 2005, which it expects will be less than $15 million. The Company estimates that it will recognize in its 2005 financial results a loss related to impairment charges and the ultimate sale totaling approximately $34 million, subject to any post-closing adjustments, plus transaction expenses and related employee retention costs.
