AMHERST, NY, July 31, 2015 - Columbus McKinnon Corporation (NASDAQ: CMCO), a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of material handling products and services, today announced financial results for its fiscal year 2016 first quarter, which ended June 30, 2015. First quarter results include the Stahlhammer Bommern GmbH (“STB”) acquisition completed on December 30, 2014.
Net sales of $136.2 million were down $6.7 million, or 4.7%, from $142.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Foreign currency exchange (FX) negatively impacted sales by $8.9 million compared with the prior-year period, while sales from the acquisition were $3.7 million.
Net income was $6.9 million, up 2.6% when compared with first quarter of fiscal 2015. On a per-diluted-share basis, net income was unchanged at $0.34. Acquisition purchase accounting for inventory step-up adjustments related to the STB acquisition and the costs associated with the consolidation of one of our European facilities had an approximate after-tax impact of $0.4 million, or $0.02 per diluted share negative impact, on earnings. The February 2015 debt restructuring contributed $0.07 per diluted share. Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of GAAP net income to adjusted net income.

Timothy T. Tevens, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our results for the quarter were as expected, with modest improvement in sales, excluding FX. In the U.S., despite no growth in industrial capacity utilization and the mediocre economy, we held steady, while sales outside the U.S., excluding FX, benefitted from the addition of STB. Although still shy of 10% of total sales, emerging markets grew 10.3%, excluding FX, driven by the previous investments we made in the important emerging regions of Latin America and China.
“Our 32.4% adjusted gross margin, which excludes the inventory step-up charges for STB and restructuring costs related to a plant closure in Europe, demonstrates the effect of our value proposition. We are a leading provider of high quality lifting and rigging equipment that offers the best total cost of ownership for our customers. Our CM Lean Business System continues to provide productivity improvements and improved operating metrics. Of note, our financial strategy to create greater flexibility with our debt structure and reduce our cost of debt enabled net income to grow.”
Mr. Tevens added, “Earlier this week we announced that we signed a definitive agreement to acquire Magnetek Inc., a leader in the design and manufacture of digital power and motion control solutions for material handling, elevators and mining applications. Integrating Magnetek’s motion control know how with our broad line of lifting and positioning mechanical products is at the leading edge of creating more advanced products for the industrial world. We believe the combination provides us a competitive advantage to address the continued trend in the industrial world focusing on productivity, safety and advanced diagnostics.”
Columbus McKinnon announced on Monday, July 27, 2015, that it had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Magnetek for $50 per share for a total value of $188.9 million. The acquisition is expected to be approximately $0.40 per share accretive to earnings in the first full fiscal year of combined operations, excluding purchase accounting adjustments. Cost synergies in the first full year post-acquisitions are expected to be at least $5 million. Both companies’ Boards of Directors unanimously approved the acquisition.
The fluctuation in net sales for the first quarter of fiscal year 2016 compared with the first quarter of fiscal year 2015 is summarized as follows:
|
| | | | |
($ in millions) | | $ Change | | % Change |
Acquisitions and divestitures | | $3.7 | | 2.6% |
Pricing | | 1.4 | | 1.0% |
Volume | | (2.9) | | (2.1)% |
Foreign currency translation | | (8.9) | | (6.2)% |
Total | | $(6.7) | | (4.7)% |
U.S. sales of $81.7 million were relatively flat compared with $81.9 million in the prior-year period as improved pricing helped offset lower volume. U.S sales were 60% of total sales. The reduction in Oil & Gas industry activity had a negative impact of approximately $2 to $3 million on revenue for the Americas in the quarter and the Company does not expect that to improve in the near term.
Sales outside of the U.S. were $54.6 million, down $6.5 million, or 10.6%, compared with the prior-year period. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, sales outside of the U.S. improved by $2.4 million. The STB acquisition and pricing more than offset the impact of lower sales volume.

Consistent Gross Margin Expansion
Gross profit was $43.6 million compared with $45.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015, a decline of $2.0 million, or 4.3%. Gross margin of 32.0% improved 10 basis points over the prior year’s first quarter. Excluding the impact of inventory step-up expense related to the STB acquisition and European facility consolidation costs, adjusted gross profit was $44.2 million, or 32.4% of sales. This marks the nineteenth consecutive quarter of year-over-year gross margin improvement, on an adjusted basis. Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of GAAP gross profit to adjusted gross profit.
|
| |
($ in millions) | Impact on Gross Profit |
Pricing, net of material cost inflation | $1.6 |
Productivity, net of other manufacturing cost increases | 0.4 |
Acquisition | 0.3 |
Product liability | 0.2 |
European facility consolidation costs | (0.2) |
Acquisition inventory step-up expense | (0.4) |
Sales volume and mix | (1.0) |
Foreign currency translation | (2.9) |
Total | $(2.0) |
Selling expenses declined by $1.3 million to $16.6 million in the first fiscal quarter. Selling expenses as a percent of sales was 12.2% compared with 12.5% in the same period last year. The STB acquisition added $0.1 million to selling expenses, and favorable foreign currency translation reduced selling expenses by $1.7 million.
General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $15.1 million in the first fiscal quarter, compared with $14.1 million in the prior-year period, an increase of $1.0 million, or 7.3%. As a percent of sales, G&A expenses were 11.1%, compared with 9.9% in the prior-year period. Last year’s quarter benefited from a higher level of information technology salaries that were capitalized as part of the global ERP systems project. The STB acquisition added $0.3 million and the European facility consolidation added $0.1 million, which was more than offset by favorable foreign currency translation of $0.7 million.
The Company expects SG&A to be approximately $32 million to $33 million per quarter in fiscal 2016.
Income from operations of $11.3 million was down $1.7 million, or 13.2%. First quarter operating margin was 8.3%, compared with 9.1% in the prior-year period. Adjusted income from operations was $12.0 million, or 8.8% of sales, and excludes the impact of the aforementioned acquisition inventory step-up expense and European facility consolidation costs. Lower income from operations was the result of reduced sales. Please see the attached tables for a reconciliation of GAAP income from operations to adjusted income from operations.
The effective tax rate in the quarter was 33.9%, compared with 33.1% in the prior-year period. The effective tax rate for the full year fiscal 2016 is expected to be in a range of 32% to 36%.
Strong Balance Sheet Provides Flexibility
Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.2 million in the first quarter, compared with $6.5 million in the prior-year period. Excluding the impact of the STB acquisition, working capital as a percentage of sales was 21.9% at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2016, compared with 20.8% at the end of fiscal 2015’s fourth quarter. The increase in working capital as a percentage of sales was the result of higher inventory levels which are expected to decline by the end of the fiscal year as large projects are completed and shipped as well as the timing of payments to vendors impacting accounts payable.
Capital expenditures for the first quarter were $4.1 million, compared with $4.6 million in the prior-year period. Capital expenditures associated with the implementation of a new enterprise resource planning system were $0.2 million. Fiscal 2016 capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $18 million to $22 million.
Cash and cash equivalents were $58.1 million at June 30, 2015. Gross debt was $123.5 million and debt, net of cash, was $65.4 million, or 18.9% of net total capitalization.

Anticipating Moderate Growth in Fiscal 2016
Mr. Tevens commented, “We are encouraged with the progress we are making despite the rapid decline in energy markets globally, the normalizing of growth in China, the weak Euro and continued sociopolitical uncertainty around the world. Against these headwinds, we are leveraging our acquisitions to take market share, building on our successes in our targeted markets and continuing to invest in growth initiatives in emerging markets, especially China and the surrounding regions, as well as Latin America. As a result of this and our cost discipline, we believe we can achieve moderate sales growth in fiscal 2016 with a higher rate of growth to the bottom line.”
He concluded, “The Magnetek acquisition is an important step in executing our growth strategy. It combines very similar cultures that are committed to quality, service and superior customer satisfaction, the addition of adjacent technology to our product offerings and the opportunity to develop new products and sell more of Magnetek’s products through our extensive global market channels, creating a strong platform to accelerate growth.”
Backlog was $84.9 million at June 30, 2015, down slightly from $85.2 million at March 31, 2015. Backlog from longer-lead time projects, which are expected to ship after September 30, 2015, was $32.4 million, or 38% of total backlog, compared with $34.0 million at March 31, 2015 and $27.3 million at June 30, 2014. Backlog is not necessarily a leading indicator of sales for the Company due to the large proportion of orders that are booked and shipped within the quarter.
Both U.S. and Eurozone capacity utilization are leading market indicators for the Company. U.S. industrial capacity utilization was 78.0% in June 2015, down slightly from 78.2% in March 2015 and flat with 78.0% in June 2014. Eurozone capacity utilization was 81.2% at June 30, 2015, up slightly from 81.0% at March 31, 2015 and up from 79.8% at June 30, 2014. The Company’s sales tend to lag changes in these indicators by one to two quarters.

Adjusted gross profit is defined as gross profit as reported, adjusted for unusual items. Adjusted gross profit is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP and may not be comparable to the measure as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Columbus McKinnon believes that providing non-GAAP information such as adjusted gross profit is important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements, and assists in understanding the comparison of the current quarter’s gross profit to the historical period’s gross profit.

Adjusted income from operations is defined as operating income as reported, adjusted for unusual items. Adjusted income from operations is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP and may not be comparable to the measure as used by other companies. Nevertheless, Columbus McKinnon believes that providing non-GAAP information such as adjusted income from operations is important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements, and assists in understanding the comparison of the current quarter’s income from operations to the historical period’s income from operations.
