Actuant Reports Improved Second Quarter Results
MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Actuant Corporation (NYSE: ATU) today announced results for its second quarter ended February 28, 2010.
Highlights
-- 73% year-over-year increase in diluted earnings per share ("EPS") to $0.19 (excluding $0.09 per diluted share in restructuring costs) on flat sales due to the Company's reduced cost structure. (See attached reconciliation of earnings.) -- Excluding the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency rate changes, second quarter year-over-year sales ("core sales") rate of change was -3%, a considerable sequential improvement from the 20% decline in the first quarter. -- Operating profit margins (excluding restructuring costs) improved 350 basis points year-over-year to 9.1% compared to 5.6% in the prior year second quarter and expanded sequentially in three of the four segments. (See attached reconciliation of earnings.) -- Full year free cash flow conversion is forecasted to exceed 100% of net earnings for the 10th consecutive year.
Robert C. Arzbaecher, Chairman and CEO of Actuant commented, "Actuant continues to execute on our key priorities. During the seasonally weak second quarter, we experienced sequentially higher sales in a number of key end markets and generated earnings significantly ahead of last year. As anticipated, our year-over-year core sales rate of change improved substantially to -3%. This, coupled with better than expected margin improvement, drove EPS ahead of expectations. Consolidated operating profit margins, excluding restructuring costs, improved 350 basis points year-over-year despite unfavorable segment mix, reflecting the benefit of our cost reduction actions. Overall, we are optimistic that global industrial activity and the corresponding demand for our products and services will continue to improve through the remainder of the year. This, coupled with improved margins, should drive strong second half year-over-year EPS growth."
Consolidated Results
Consolidated sales for the second quarter were $294 million, approximately equal to the comparable prior year quarter. Core sales declined 3%, with the European Electrical bike and plumbing product line divestiture impact of -1% and the weaker US dollar adding 4%. Earnings and EPS from continuing operations in the fiscal 2010 second quarter were $7.2 million and $0.10, respectively, compared to $4.2 million and $0.08 in the comparable prior year quarter. Results for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 included restructuring costs (including those reported in cost of products sold) of $9.3 million, or $0.09 per diluted share. Fiscal 2009 second quarter results included restructuring costs of $3.0 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. Excluding these items, EPS from continuing operations was $0.19 in the second quarter of fiscal 2010, 73% higher than the $0.11 in the prior year. (See attached reconciliation of earnings.)
Sales for the six months ended February 28, 2010 were $599 million, 10% lower than the $665 million in the comparable prior year period. Excluding the impact of the weaker US dollar (+4%) and net acquisitions and divestitures (-1%), year-to-date core sales decreased 13%. Earnings and EPS from continuing operations for the six months ended February 28, 2010 were $19.0 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared to $16.1 million, or $0.27 per diluted share for the comparable prior year period. Year-to-date fiscal 2010 results include restructuring costs (including those reported in cost of products sold) of $12.9 million, or $0.12 per diluted share. Results for the six months ended February 28, 2009 include a $26.6 million ($0.26 per diluted share) pre-tax non-cash asset impairment charge and $3.7 million ($0.04 per diluted share) of restructuring costs. Excluding these items, current year first half diluted EPS was $0.39, compared to $0.56 for the comparable prior year period. (See attached reconciliation of earnings.)
Segment Results
Industrial Segment (US $ in millions) Three Months Ended Six Months Ended February 28, February 28, 2010 2009 2010 2009 Sales $69.2 $71.7 $134.5 $162.2 Operating Profit $10.9 $15.6 $24.6 $41.6 Adjusted Operating Profit(1) $15.8 $16.0 $29.7 $42.1 Adjusted Operating Profit %(1) 22.9% 22.3% 22.1% 25.9%
(1) Excludes restructuring costs of $4.9 million and $5.1 million for the three and six months ended February 28, 2010 and $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended February 28, 2009.
Second quarter fiscal 2010 Industrial segment sales were $69 million, 3% lower than the prior year. Excluding foreign currency rate changes (+4%), Industrial segment core sales declined 7% due to lower demand across most regions and end markets. Despite the normal seasonal slowdown from the first to second quarter, sales increased 6% sequentially and the year-over-year core sales rate of change trend improved significantly to -7% from -30% in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. This improvement continued as the quarter progressed with flat year-over-year core sales in the last month of the quarter. Operating profit margins (excluding restructuring costs) improved 60 basis points from the prior year as the benefit of restructuring actions more than offset higher annual incentive compensation expense.
Energy Segment (US $ in millions) Three Months Ended Six Months Ended February 28, February 28, 2010 2009 2010 2009 Sales $53.9 $59.5 $117.9 $133.5 Operating Profit $3.9 $5.9 $15.3 $21.5 Adjusted Operating Profit(2) $5.6 $5.9 $17.1 $21.5 Adjusted Operating Profit %(2) 10.4% 9.9% 14.5% 16.1%
(2) Excludes restructuring costs of $1.7 million and $1.8 million for the three and six months ended February 28, 2010.
Fiscal 2010 second quarter Energy segment sales decreased 10% to $54 million. Core sales declined 14% due primarily to weakness in refinery maintenance, seismic exploration and project based revenue. The Energy segment's -14% core sales rate of change in the second quarter was generally consistent with the declines in each of the previous two quarters. Despite lower revenue, second quarter operating profit margin (excluding restructuring costs) improved 50 basis points year-over-year from 9.9% to 10.4% due to cost reduction benefits.
Electrical Segment (US $ in millions) Three Months Ended Six Months Ended February 28, February 28, 2010 2009 2010 2009 Sales $81.7 $89.7 $168.3 $192.6 Operating Profit $4.4 $1.2 $5.1 $7.1 Adjusted Operating Profit(3) $4.9 $2.4 $8.3 $8.3 Adjusted Operating Profit %(3) 6.0% 2.7% 4.9% 4.3%
(3) Excludes restructuring costs of $0.5 million and $3.2 million for the three and six months ended February 28, 2010 and $1.2 million for both the three and six months ended February 28, 2009.
Electrical segment fiscal 2010 second quarter sales were $82 million, 9% lower than the comparable prior year quarter. Core sales also decreased 9% reflecting weakness in the electric utility, commercial construction and European DIY markets. The year-over-year core sales rate of change improved from -18% in the first quarter due to continued moderate improvement in the North American marine and retail DIY markets. Second quarter operating profit margin (excluding restructuring costs) increased 330 basis points from the prior year reflecting restructuring driven cost savings.
Engineered Solutions Segment (US $ in millions) Three Months Ended Six Months Ended February 28, February 28, 2010 2009 2010 2009 Sales $89.4 $72.9 $178.6 $176.3 Operating Profit $4.0 $(4.0) $9.1 $(23.1) Adjusted Operating Profit(4) $6.0 $(2.7) $11.5 $5.1 Adjusted Operating Profit %(4) 6.7% (3.8)% 6.4% 2.9%
(4) Excludes restructuring costs of $2.0 million and $2.4 million for the three and six months ended February 28, 2010 and $1.3 million and $1.7 million for the three and six months ended February 28, 2009. The six months ended February 28, 2009 also excludes $26.6 million of impairment charges.
Second quarter fiscal 2010 Engineered Solutions segment sales increased 23% from the prior year to $89 million, benefiting from higher shipments to global truck, automotive and specialty vehicle customers. Excluding the impact of currency translation (+4%) and acquisitions (+3%), the year-over-year core sales rate of change improved sequentially from -18% in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 to +16% in the second quarter due to new automotive platforms as well as easier comparables due to prior year destocking at global truck and RV OEM's. Second quarter operating margins (excluding restructuring costs) increased over 1000 basis points due to the higher volume and improved cost structure.
Corporate
Corporate expenses for the second quarter of fiscal 2010, excluding restructuring charges of $0.2 million, were $5.6 million, approximately comparable to the first quarter. They increased approximately $0.5 million from last year due to higher annual incentive compensation expense.
Financial Position
Net debt at February 28, 2010 was $377 million (total debt of $393 million less $16 million of cash). The $13 million second quarter net debt reduction included approximately $5 million in proceeds from the previously announced product line divestiture within the European Electrical business, net of a deferred acquisition payment. As of February 28, 2010, the Company had over $370 million of unused revolver capacity.
Outlook
Arzbaecher continued, "We are encouraged by the improving trends in many of our end markets, especially those served by our early cycle businesses. Our Energy segment, which was the last to feel the brunt of the economic slowdown, has seen year-over-year core sales percentage declines in the low-to-mid teens in each of the last three quarters. While we expect to see sequential core sales improvement over the next few quarters in the Energy segment, it will be modestly less than in our prior guidance. This is being offset by improvements in other segments. Overall, we expect improving sales trends in all four segments during the back half of fiscal 2010, which will be partially muted by the unfavorable impact of recent US dollar strengthening. From an earnings standpoint, our investors should see strong second half year-over-year growth, the combined benefit of higher sales and a reduced cost structure."
"We currently project full year sales in the range of $1.225-1.250 billion, and corresponding EPS, excluding restructuring costs, of $0.87-0.97. We are targeting $110 million of free cash flow for fiscal 2010, and are on track with nearly half generated through two quarters. Third quarter sales are expected to be in the range of $310-320 million. Excluding restructuring costs, third quarter EPS is projected to be in the $0.24-0.29 range. We are actively pursuing several modest-sized tuck-in acquisition opportunities, which when executed, would be incremental to this guidance."

ACTUANT CORPORATION FOOTNOTES FOR SUPPLEMENTAL UNAUDITED DATA AND RECONCILIATION OF GAAP MEASURES TO NON-GAAP MEASURES (Dollars in thousands, except for per share amounts) FOOTNOTES NOTE: The total of the individual quarters may not equal the annual total due to rounding. The restructuring charges for the first and second quarters of fiscal 2010 include $54 and $833 of charges included in cost of products sold on (1) the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The restructuring charges for the third and fourth quarters of fiscal 2009 and total fiscal 2009 include $276, $1,037 and $1,313 of charges included in cost of products sold on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Net earnings and diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring charges, impairment charges, debt extinguishment charges 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 highlighted for comparability purposes. These measures (2) 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.
