Commercial Aerospace Programs, Lower Material Costs Drive Third Quarter Results
Company Reaffirms 2013 Full Year Guidance
PITTSBURGH--(BUSINESS WIRE)--November 7, 2013--RTI International Metals, Inc. (NYSE: RTI), today reported 2013 third quarter financial results showing year-over-year growth in sales and operating income, and reaffirmed its 2013 full year guidance for mill product shipments, revenues and operating income. The Company said continued steady growth in its commercial aerospace business and lower material and production costs in its Titanium Segment were key drivers of its third quarter performance.
2013 Third Quarter Financial Highlights
- 2013 third quarter net sales increased $14 million, or 8%, to $196.5 million, compared to 2012 third quarter net sales of $182.5 million.
- 2013 third quarter operating income increased $12.3 million to $21.6 million, compared to 2012 third quarter operating income of $9.3 million.
- Quarterly net income attributable to continuing operations increased to $12.3 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, including the impact of a favorable income tax benefit of $2.6 million, or $0.06 per diluted share.
- 2013 third quarter titanium mill product shipments were 4.0 million pounds at an average realized price of $18.57 per pound, compared to 4.2 million pounds at an average realized price of $19.01 per pound for the same period last year.
- 2013 third quarter Boeing 787 seat track deliveries totaled 22 equivalent ship sets, ending the quarter at a 9 equivalent ship-sets-per-month delivery rate.
2013 Third Quarter and First Nine Months Financial Summary
For the third quarter of 2013, RTI reported net income attributable to continuing operations of $12.3 million, or $0.37 per diluted share (1), on net sales of $196.5 million and operating income of $21.6 million. During the third quarter of 2012, RTI reported net income attributable to continuing operations of $3.2 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, on net sales of $182.5 million and operating income of $9.3 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, RTI reported net sales of $588.5 million, compared to net sales of $521.1 million reported for the same period a year ago. Operating income for the first nine months of 2013 was $55.3 million and net income attributable to continuing operations was $20.0 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, compared with operating income of $30.1 million and net income attributable to continuing operations of $11.4 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, reported for the first nine months of 2012.
Interest expense for the third quarter and first nine months of 2013 was $7.4 million and $32.9 million, respectively, compared to $4.7 million and $13.2 million for the comparable periods in 2012. The year-over-year increase in third quarter interest expense is due to the April 2013 issuance of $402.5 million of 1.625% Convertible Senior Notes due 2019. The increase in interest expense for the first nine months was also impacted by a $13.7 million early extinguishment of debt charge in the second quarter of 2013 related to the repurchase of $115.6 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.000% Convertible Senior Notes due 2015.
Third quarter 2013 provision for income taxes was $1.7 million, compared to $1.4 million reported for the same period last year. The current year third quarter income tax provision includes a $2.6 million ($0.06 per diluted share (1)) income tax benefit primarily related to the effects of certain statutory rate changes.
Amounts reported in this press release for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 have been restated to reflect the application of the percentage-of-completion accounting model for revenues recognized for certain of the Company’s long-term contracts in its Engineered Products and Services Segment, and recast to reflect the change in the Company’s reporting structure into two business segments. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2012 will be restated in the Company’s Second Amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2012, to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on or before November 12, 2013. Amounts reported in this press release for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 reflect the impact of revisions made to the previously issued financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as disclosed in the Form 8-K filed by the Company with the SEC on October 28, 2013.
(1) | In accordance with the “if-converted” method, diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2013 is calculated assuming the conversion of the Company’s 1.625% Senior Convertible Notes due 2019 into shares of common stock in lieu of recognizing after-tax interest expense. See the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations later in this press release for additional detail. | |
Segment Results
Titanium Segment
For the third quarter of 2013, the Titanium Segment reported operating income of $16.8 million on net sales of $89.7 million, compared to 2012 third quarter operating income of $5.5 million on net sales of $90.1 million. Sales were essentially flat as the impact of lower prime mill product shipment sales were offset by higher European service center sales to European commercial aerospace customers as a result of customer order timing. The $11.3 million increase in operating income was primarily due to favorable raw material prices, including the benefit of lower scrap costs, and steady but modest improvements in operational performance. In addition, last year’s third quarter operating income included a $2.4 million charge related to a previously disclosed transformer fire at the RTI Alloys Canton melting facility.
During the first nine months of 2013, the Titanium Segment posted operating income of $44.6 million on net sales of $273.7 million, compared to operating income of $26.1 million on net sales of $274.8 million during the same period a year ago.
Titanium mill product shipments for the 2013 third quarter were 4.0 million pounds at an average realized price of $18.57 per pound, compared to titanium mill product shipments of 4.2 million pounds in the third quarter of 2012 at an average realized price of $19.01 per pound.
Titanium mill product shipments for the first nine months of 2013 were 12.4 million pounds at an average realized price of $19.17 per pound, compared to titanium mill product shipments of 12.8 million pounds during the same period a year ago at an average realized price of $19.14 per pound.
Engineered Products and Services Segment
For the third quarter of 2013, the Engineered Products and Services Segment reported operating income of $4.7 million on net sales of $106.9 million, compared to operating income of $3.7 million on net sales of $92.5 million for the same period last year. These increases were primarily due to higher commercial aerospace sales, principally related to Boeing platforms, which were partially offset by lower medical device and military market sales.
During the first nine months of 2013, the Engineered Products and Services Segment reported operating income of $10.7 million on net sales of $314.9 million, compared to operating income of $4.0 million on net sales of $246.2 million reported for the same period a year ago.
CEO Comment
“Our third quarter performance reflects continued progress for RTI. Our businesses delivered improved top and bottom line financial results. RTI also completed another strategic acquisition that enhances and builds on our existing capabilities. It also better aligns RTI to our customers needs and will support continued growth on commercial aerospace programs with both OEM and Tier 1 commercial aerospace customers,” Dawne Hickton, Vice Chair, President and CEO of RTI said. “Given our first-nine-month financial results, and our expectation for a continuation of improving operational performance into the fourth quarter, we are reaffirming our 2013 full year guidance for total mill product shipments approaching 16.5 million pounds, revenues approaching or possibly exceeding $775 million, and operating income in the range of $65 to $75 million, including our current expectation that full year operating income will fall in the upper half of that range.”
