AMETEK Announces Second Quarter 2016 Results
BERWYN, PA, AUGUST 4, 2016 – AMETEK, Inc. (NYSE: AME) today announced its financial results for the three month period ended June 30, 2016.
AMETEK reported second quarter 2016 sales of $977.7 million, down 3% from last year’s second quarter. Operating income was $219.0 million and operating margins were 22.4% in the quarter. Diluted earnings per share declined 8% from last year’s second quarter to $0.59 per diluted share.
“Our second quarter results were in-line with our expectations despite further market weakness,” notes David A. Zapico, AMETEK Chief Executive Officer. “Our business teams continue to do a solid job managing through these challenging and uncertain market conditions.”
“Cash flow was strong, with operating cash flow of $189 million for the quarter, a 16% increase over the same period of 2015. We continue to use our cash flow to support our acquisition strategy, having closed two acquisitions subsequent to the end of the quarter,” says Mr. Zapico.
Electronic Instruments Group (EIG)
For the second quarter of 2016, EIG sales were $596.0 million, essentially flat with last year’s second quarter. Operating income was $152.1 million and operating margins were a strong 25.5%.
“Our Power & Industrial businesses had a good quarter, bolstered by contributions from the acquisitions of ESP/SurgeX and Brookfield Engineering Laboratories. This growth was more than offset by softness in our Process businesses largely as a result of the weak market conditions in oil and gas,” comments Mr. Zapico.

Electromechanical Group (EMG)
In the second quarter, EMG sales decreased 6% to $381.7 million. Operating income was $80.3 million and operating margins were 21.0% in the quarter.
“EMG results were impacted by weakness within our Engineered Materials, Interconnects and Packaging businesses,” adds Mr. Zapico.
2016 Outlook
“The economic environment remains difficult to predict as customers remain cautious and capital projects are delayed. We believe that our business has stabilized and the second half of the year will be similar to the first half,” notes Mr. Zapico.
“We now expect 2016 sales to be down low-single digits with organic sales down mid-single digits on a percentage basis versus 2015, with earnings for 2016 in the range of $2.28 to $2.32 per diluted share,” adds Mr. Zapico.
“Third quarter 2016 sales are expected to be down mid-single digits on a percentage basis compared to last year’s third quarter. We estimate our earnings in the third quarter to be approximately $0.54 to $0.55 per diluted share,” notes Mr. Zapico.
“Despite these short-term market headwinds, I am very confident in our future growth opportunities given the high level of differentiation in our businesses, our strong operational capabilities, and our proven ability to deploy capital on strategic acquisitions. Most importantly, I am confident in our team’s ability to manage through these challenging times and execute on the long-term growth strategies that will continue to make AMETEK successful,” concludes Mr. Zapico.
