Actuant Reports Improved Third Quarter Results; Raises Fiscal 2011 Guidance and Provides Initial Fiscal 2012 Outlook

MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Actuant Corporation (NYSE: ATU) today announced results for its third quarter ended May 31, 2011.

Highlights

    --  A 46% increase in diluted earnings per share from continuing operations
        ("EPS") to $0.51, compared to $0.35 in the prior year quarter (excluding
        prior year restructuring and tax items - see attached reconciliation of
        earnings.)
    --  Core sales growth in all four segments, resulting in a consolidated 14%
        year-over-year increase in core revenue (total sales less the impact of
        acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency rate changes).
    --  Year-over-year operating profit margin expansion of 140 basis points,
        excluding prior year restructuring costs.
    --  Strong cash flow from operations totaling $75 million, putting the
        Company on track for delivering its full year cash flow target.
    --  Completed the previously announced acquisition of Weasler Engineering,
        Inc. ("Weasler") after quarter end, strengthening the Engineered
        Solutions segment.
    --  Introduced fiscal 2012 sales and EPS outlook of $1.60-$1.65 billion and
        $1.80-$2.00, respectively.

Robert C. Arzbaecher, Chairman and CEO of Actuant commented, "Actuant is executing well and delivering terrific results, including another quarter of double digit organic sales growth, margin expansion, higher than expected EPS and healthy cash flow. We reported year-over-year core sales growth in all four segments, with sequential increases in three of the four segments and in excess of 20% year-over-year core growth in both Industrial and Energy. Incremental profits on the higher sales led to year-over-year operating margin expansion of 140 basis points and EPS above the top of our guidance range. We generated robust free cash flow and consistent with our business model, deployed it in growth investments, including the acquisition of Weasler just after quarter-end. It was a strong performance quarter by all measures and we expect that momentum to continue into our fourth quarter and next fiscal year."

Consolidated Results from Continuing Operations

Consolidated sales for the third quarter were $393 million, 27% higher than the comparable prior year quarter. Core sales increased 14% with acquisitions contributing an additional 9% and the weaker U.S. dollar 4%. Earnings and EPS from continuing operations were $38.4 million and $0.51, respectively, compared to $28.3 million and $0.39 in the comparable prior year quarter. Results for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 included pre-tax restructuring costs as well as net income tax adjustments. Excluding these items, fiscal 2011 third quarter EPS from continuing operations of $0.51 was 46% higher than the $0.35 in the prior year. (See attached reconciliation of earnings.)

Sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2011 were $1,042 million, 23% higher than the $850 million in the comparable prior year period. Excluding the impact of the weaker US dollar (+1%) and acquisitions (+8%), year-to-date core sales increased 14%. Earnings and EPS from continuing operations for the nine months ended May 31, 2011 were $87.2 million, or $1.17 per diluted share, compared to $49.4 million, or $0.69 per diluted share for the comparable prior year period. Year-to-date fiscal 2010 results included pre-tax restructuring costs as well as net income tax adjustments. Excluding these items, current year-to-date EPS of $1.17 was 52% higher than the $0.77 for the comparable prior year period. (See attached reconciliation of earnings.)

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations represent the results for the European Electrical business for all periods presented. The $2.0 million ($0.02 per diluted share) third quarter loss primarily reflects post closing adjustments on the European Electrical business sale that took place in the second fiscal quarter.

Third quarter fiscal 2011 Industrial segment sales were $108 million, 35% higher than the prior year. Excluding foreign currency rate changes (+4%), and the benefit of the Integrated Solutions (IS) acquisitions (+8%), Industrial segment core sales increased 23%. This compares to year-over-year second quarter core sales growth of 15%. The accelerated year-over-year growth rate was driven by robust global demand across nearly all served markets, the introduction of new products and a focus on higher growth vertical markets. Adjusted operating profit margins also increased sequentially and year-over-year due to incremental volumes and favorable mix.

Fiscal 2011 third quarter year-over-year Energy segment sales increased 38% to $78 million. Excluding the 9% contribution from acquisitions and 7% from foreign currency rate changes, core sales increased 22% due primarily to higher activity levels across virtually all of the segment's primary markets, reflecting increased capital and maintenance related spending globally. Current year third quarter adjusted operating profit margins improved 450 basis points year-over-year due to operating leverage on the higher volumes.

Electrical segment fiscal 2011 third quarter sales were $80 million, 30% higher than the comparable prior year quarter. Excluding foreign currency rate changes (+1%) and the Mastervolt acquisition (+26%), core sales increased 3%, with growth in the North American marine, utility and OEM markets. Results from Mastervolt, which was acquired in December 2010, reflect marine market sales in line with expectations but weaker than expected solar inverter product sales due to European feed-in-tariff reductions and high channel inventory levels. Third quarter adjusted operating profit and margins were adversely impacted on a segment level basis due to solar market weakness which is expected to continue into the fourth fiscal quarter.

(4) Excludes restructuring costs of $0.4 million and $2.8 million for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2010.

Third quarter fiscal 2011 Engineered Solutions segment sales increased 13% from the prior year to $127 million. Excluding the impact of the weaker U.S. dollar (+4%), year-over-year core sales grew 9%. This increase reflects strong demand from the global heavy-duty truck, agriculture, construction equipment and defense markets. As expected, year-over-year segment sales growth moderated sequentially, reflecting more difficult prior year comparisons and a decline in convertible top actuation revenues due to the anniversary of prior year new vehicle launches. Third quarter adjusted operating margins increased 370 basis points year-over-year due to margin leverage on the higher volumes and operational improvements.

Corporate

Corporate expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 were $10.5 million. The approximate $3 million year-over-year increase results from training expenditures, growth and innovation initiative spending and provisions for idle facility holding costs.

Financial Position

Net debt at May 31, 2011 was $399 million (total debt of $467 million less $68 million of cash), a decrease of $69 million from the beginning of the quarter as the Company's strong third quarter free cash flow was used to reduce revolver borrowings. In early June 2011, the Company deployed approximately $155 million of capital to fund the Weasler acquisition. Total quarter-end availability under the Company's $600 million revolver, including the Weasler acquisition, was approximately $445 million at May 31, 2011.

Outlook

Arzbaecher continued, "Through the first nine months of fiscal 2011, Actuant has delivered strong financial results while simultaneously investing for future growth. We expect this momentum to continue into the fourth quarter and fiscal 2012. Given our strong third quarter results and the acquisition of Weasler, we have increased our full year fiscal 2011 sales guidance to $1.43-$1.44 billion. Our expectation is that Weasler will be EPS neutral in the fourth fiscal quarter due to one-time transaction costs and purchase accounting charges. However, we have raised our full year EPS guidance to $1.60-$1.65 to take into account current business momentum, including higher than expected third quarter earnings. We continue to forecast free cash flow in the $140-$150 million range for the fiscal year.

Based on our evaluation of both broad economic indicators and Actuant's current business trends, we anticipate our businesses will continue to expand in fiscal 2012, but at a moderating growth rate as the year progresses. On a consolidated basis, we expect core growth in the range of 5%-8% for the full year with our later cycle energy and infrastructure end markets showing the most growth. The fiscal 2011 Mastervolt and Weasler acquisitions will also contribute to fiscal 2012 growth. Excluding future acquisitions, we are projecting fiscal 2012 EPS of $1.80-$2.00 on sales of approximately $1.60-$1.65 billion. Projected free cash flow for fiscal 2012 is $155-$165 million.

We remain committed to executing our proven business model which has rewarded shareholders, employees and stakeholders over the past decade with a strong track record of sales, earnings and cash flow growth."

FOOTNOTES

NOTE: The total of the individual quarters may not equal the annual total due
to rounding.

    As a result of the global economic downturn in 2009, the Company
    implemented various restructuring initiatives aimed at reducing its cost
    structure and improving operational performance. These restructuring
    actions were substantially completed at August 31, 2010. Fiscal 2011 first,
(1) second and third quarter operating results include $461, $359 and $862 of
    restructuring charges, respectively, which are included in segment
    operating profit, EBITDA and earnings per share, as the amounts are not
    significant. However, fiscal 2010 operating profit, EBITDA and earnings per
    share amounts exclude restructuring charges for comparability purposes.

    A summary of restructuring charges included in cost of products sold is as
    follows:

                   FISCAL 2010                        FISCAL 2011

    products sold

    Net earnings and diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges
    (2010 only), income tax adjustments and discontinued operations represent
    net earnings and diluted earnings per share per the Condensed Consolidated
    Statements of Earnings net of charges or credits for items to be
(2) highlighted for comparability purposes. These measures should not be
    considered as an alternative to net earnings or diluted earnings per share
    as an indicator of the Company's operating performance. However, this
    presentation is important to investors for understanding the operating
    results of the current portfolio of Actuant companies. The total of the
    individual components may not equal due to rounding.

    EBITDA represents net earnings before financing costs, net, income tax
    expense, depreciation & amortization and discontinued operations. EBITDA is
    not a calculation based upon generally accepted accounting principles
    (GAAP). The amounts included in the EBITDA calculation, however, are
    derived from amounts included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of
    Earnings data. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net
    earnings or operating profit as an indicator of the Company's operating
(3) performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure of
    liquidity. Actuant has presented EBITDA because it regularly reviews this
    as a measure of the company's ability to incur and service debt. In
    addition, EBITDA is used by many of our investors and lenders, and is
    presented as a convenience to them. However, the EBITDA measure presented
    may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other
    companies due to differences in the components of the calculation. The
    total of the individual quarters may not equal the annual total due to
    rounding.
