PORTLAND, OR - November 9, 2015: Blount International, Inc. [NYSE: BLT] (“Blount” or “Company”) today announced results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.
Results for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2015
Sales in the third quarter were $209.2 million, a decrease of $36.1 million or 14.7 percent compared to the third quarter of 2014. Operating income for the third quarter of 2015 was $14.1 million compared to $23.5 million in the same quarter last year. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2015 was $29.8 million compared to $38.2 million in the third quarter of 2014. Third quarter net income was $12.3 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared to net income of $16.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, in the same quarter last year.
“We continued to experience significant headwinds in the third quarter driven by the strength of the U.S. Dollar,” stated Josh Collins, Blount’s Chairman and CEO. “Our sales were unfavorably impacted by current global economic conditions, continued U.S. Dollar strength versus foreign currencies, and the cyclical downturn in the agriculture machinery market that has negatively impacted sales in most parts of our FRAG business. In response to the lower demand, we have further reduced production rates and headcount, primarily at our U.S.-based production facilities, and we are actively managing our spending and staffing while maintaining focus on our strategic investments.”
Blount operates primarily in two business segments - the Forestry, Lawn, and Garden (“FLAG”) segment and the Farm, Ranch, and Agriculture (“FRAG”) segment. The Company reports separate results for the FLAG and FRAG segments. Blount’s Concrete Cutting and Finishing (“CCF”) business is included in “Corporate and Other.”
Forestry, Lawn, and Garden
The FLAG segment had third quarter 2015 sales of $129.7 million, which was $29.4 million, or 18.5 percent, lower than the third quarter of 2014, primarily as the result of reduced unit volume along with foreign currency exchange rate changes. Segment sales were unfavorably impacted by pressure from continued U.S. Dollar strength where the company invoices in U.S. Dollars outside the U.S. Additionally, sales to OEMs remained soft, primarily in North
America, reflective of the broader global economic impact on forestry and lawn and garden equipment. Sales decreased by approximately 21 percent in Europe, five percent in North America, 24 percent in Asia, and 30 percent in all other geographies combined. The change in segment sales for the comparable third quarter periods is illustrated below.

(1) Represents change in non-cash acquisition accounting impact for all FLAG business units
Segment contribution to operating income and Adjusted EBITDA declined mostly due to lower sales volumes, as illustrated above, and higher overall operating costs and mix. Operating costs, including mix, were approximately $3.7 million higher, primarily due to higher manufacturing costs of $5.4 million on lower production volumes, partially offset by $1.7 million lower SG&A spending in the segment. FLAG factory utilization was 78 percent in the third quarter of 2015 compared to 88 percent in the third quarter of 2014. Additional actions were taken to align production rates and headcount with demand. Lower SG&A in the segment was mostly related to lower incentive compensation rates resulting from lower than targeted operating results along with lower discretionary spending in the quarter in response to lower sales volumes.
Farm, Ranch, and Agriculture
The FRAG segment reported third quarter 2015 sales of $71.1 million, a decrease of $7.5 million, or 9.6 percent, from the third quarter of 2014. The reduction in sales was the result of lower volumes of log splitters and agriculture attachments. Log splitter volumes are down compared to the strong third quarter of 2014, while the agriculture attachments have been negatively impacted by the continued weak overall agriculture machinery market conditions. The change in segment sales for the comparable third quarter periods is illustrated below.

Segment backlog was $22.0 million at September 30, 2015 compared to $32.0 million at September 30, 2014 on generally weaker agriculture machinery market conditions.
The FRAG segment had $7.2 million of Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter of 2015, including $2.3 million of allocated shared services expenses. The change in FRAG contribution to operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the comparable third quarter periods is presented below.

(1) Represents change in non-cash acquisition accounting impact for all FRAG business units
The impact of lower sales volumes was partially offset by increases in average pricing and favorable overall costs. Cost/mix was favorable compared to the third quarter of 2014 mostly as a result of reduced compensation costs, including incentive compensation.
Corporate and Other
Corporate and Other net operating expense was $5.8 million, an increase of $0.6 million compared to the third quarter of 2014. Increased Corporate and Other net expense in the third quarter of 2015 was primarily the result of an increase
in restructuring charges related to realignment of production staffing and pension restructuring, partially offset by lower incentive compensation expense.
Net Income
Net income was lower in the third quarter of 2015 compared to the same quarter in 2014, mostly due to lower operating income in the quarter. Net interest expense decreased $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2015 on lower interest rates after the Company refinanced its Senior Credit Agreement in early May 2015. Other expense was $1.9 million compared to other income of $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2014. Other expense in the third quarter of 2015 was driven by foreign currency exchange impacts on non-operating assets held outside the U.S., among other items. Income tax expense was impacted by recording the one-time net benefit of foreign tax credits that the Company expects to claim on amended returns for prior years. The change in net income for the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014 is summarized in the table below.

Cash Flow and Debt
As of September 30, 2015, the Company had net debt of $367.0 million, an increase of $10.1 million from December 31, 2014 and a decrease from June 30, 2015 of $28.2 million. The Company generated positive free cash flow of $26.0 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to $37.9 million in the third quarter of 2014. The decrease in free cash flow in the third quarter of 2015 compared to last year was driven mostly by reduced operating profit and reduced cash flow generated from working capital. The decrease in net debt since June 30, 2015 was primarily the result of positive free cash flow. The Company defines free cash flow as cash flows from operating activities less net capital spending. The ratio of net debt to last-twelve-months ("LTM") Adjusted EBITDA was 3.3x as of September 30, 2015, which is higher compared to December 31, 2014 and reflects higher net debt and reduced Adjusted EBITDA.
2015 Financial Outlook
As a result of the continued currency headwind and soft market conditions, the Company has revised its estimate for fiscal year 2015 sales and Adjusted EBITDA. The Company expects sales to range between $820 million and $840 million, operating income to range between $47 million to $53 million (excluding asset impairments and restructuring charges), and Adjusted EBITDA to range between $100 million and $105 million. The Company's outlook for sales assumes FLAG segment sales decline 13 percent to 14 percent and FRAG segment sales decline between nine percent and 13 percent, both compared to 2014 levels. Within 2015 guidance, steel material costs are expected to decrease by $2 million to $3 million compared to 2014. At recent U.S. Dollar currency trading levels, the impact of translating foreign operation to U.S. Dollars is expected to reduce sales by $35 million to $40 million and to be unfavorable to operating income and Adjusted EBITDA by approximately $1.0 million. Free cash flow in 2015 is expected to range between $10 million and $20 million, after approximately $35 million to $38 million of capital expenditures. Interest expense is expected to be approximately $14.5 million to $15.5 million in 2015.
A comparison of key operating indicators for 2014 actual results and the 2015 outlook is provided in the table below.
