Quarterly Segment Results
Turbine Systems1
Turbine Systems’ segment net sales for the fourth quarter, which includes intersegment sales, were $148.4 million, a decrease of approximately 15 percent from $175.2 million for the fourth quarter a year ago. Segment earnings for the fourth quarter of 2009 declined slightly to $32.0 million from $32.6 million for the same quarter a year ago. Segment earnings as a percent of segment net sales were 21.6 percent this quarter compared to 18.6 percent in the same quarter for the prior year.

Our sales performance reflected declines in aerospace OEM and industrial equipment markets, while aftermarket sales remained consistent with the prior year. This favorable mix, along with cost controls, allowed us to maintain segment earnings despite the decline in sales.
Airframe Systems
Airframe Systems’ segment net sales for the fourth quarter, which includes intersegment sales, were $110.4 million, reflecting stable defense markets and weakness in the business and regional jet markets. Reported segment earnings were $12.0 million or 10.9 percent of segment net sales for the fourth quarter of 2009. Excluding the effects of purchase accounting as shown on the attached schedule of Airframe Systems — Adjusted Segment Earnings, segment earnings were $18.3 million or 16.6 percent of net segment sales. Consistent with our expectations, the sequential improvement in profitability reflects significant cost reductions and synergies. As a result of the improved profitability, our airframe acquisitions were accretive to earnings in the fourth quarter.
Electrical Power Systems
Electrical Power Systems’ segment net sales for the fourth quarter, which includes intersegment sales, were $53.7 million, a decrease of 40 percent from $89.7 million for the fourth quarter a year ago. Segment earnings for this quarter were $5.1 million compared to $14.8 million for the same quarter a year ago. Excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rates, net segment sales would have been approximately $57 million for the quarter. This quarter’s sales results reflected a broad decline in all markets served by the Electrical Power Systems segment. Approximately one-half of the decline was related to a significant slowdown in wind converter sales. This decrease was driven by ongoing tightness in credit markets and delays in stimulus funding and tax credit availability. Segment earnings as a percent of sales decreased to 9.5 percent this quarter compared to 16.5 percent for the same quarter last year. Our profitability in this segment was affected by the significant decline in volume, although cost controls mitigated this impact.
Engine Systems2
Engine Systems’ segment net sales for the fourth quarter, which includes intersegment sales, were $73.8 million compared to $120.0 million for last year’s fourth quarter, a decrease of 38 percent. Segment earnings for this quarter decreased to $2.1 million from $10.5 million for the same period a year ago. Segment earnings as a percent of net sales were 2.8 percent this quarter compared to 8.8 percent in the same quarter last year. The lower sales levels were attributable to broad declines across all of our served markets. The impact of foreign currency exchange rates on net sales and segment earnings was not significant when compared to the prior year. Profitability was significantly affected by the decrease in volumes, partially offset by cost reduction actions taken predominantly in the second half of 2009.

Nonsegment

Full Year Fiscal 2009 Segment Results
Turbine Systems
Turbine Systems’ segment net sales for fiscal 2009 were $632.2 million, a slight decrease from $634.7 million for the same period a year ago. Segment earnings for the year increased 6 percent to $136.1 million from $128.9 million for last year. Segment earnings as a percent of net sales were 21.5 percent for fiscal 2009 compared to 20.3 percent in the prior year.
Airframe Systems
Segment net sales for fiscal 2009 were $322.0 million and segment earnings for the year were $11.0 million. Segment earnings reflect the $12.5 million charge related to purchase accounting effects on inventory related to the recent acquisition of HR Textron (“HRT”) and $19.6 million of intangible amortization related to both of the MPC Products Corporation (“MPC”) and HRT acquisitions, all of which were non-cash charges.
Electrical Power Systems
Electrical Power Systems’ segment net sales for fiscal 2009 were $243.1 million, a decrease of approximately 16 percent from $289.3 million for a year ago. Segment earnings for fiscal 2009 decreased approximately 15 percent to $35.9 million from $42.3 million for a year ago. Segment earnings as a percent of net sales increased to 14.8 percent for fiscal 2009 compared to 14.6 percent for last year.

Engine Systems
Engine Systems’ segment net sales for fiscal 2009 were $341.0 million compared to $469.4 million for last year, a decrease of 27 percent. Segment earnings for fiscal 2009 decreased 58 percent to $18.5 million from $43.7 million for last year. Segment earnings as a percent of net sales were 5.4 percent in fiscal 2009 compared to 9.3 percent in fiscal 2008.
Nonsegment
Nonsegment expenses for fiscal 2009 were $46.6 million, compared to $31.3 million for last year. Excluding special charges, nonsegment expenses were $30.0 million or 2.1 percent of net sales for 2009, compared to 2.5 percent of net sales for the prior year.
Cash Flow and Financial Position
Net cash generated from operating activities improved to $218.7 million for the year ended September 30, 2009 compared with $125.4 million for fiscal 2008, reflecting our continuing focus on working capital and operating cash flow initiatives. Free cash flow was $189.7 million for the 2009 fiscal year as compared to $87.8 million for 2008. We believe this level of cash generation should continue in 2010. Capital expenditures for the twelve-month period were $28.9 million compared with $37.5 million last year.
Our ratio of debt to debt-plus-equity was 44.7 percent at September 30, 2009 compared to 50.1 percent at the end of the prior quarter and 7.2 percent at September 30, 2008, reflecting the financing and partial debt repayments connected with the recent acquisitions.
Outlook
Though near-term visibility has improved somewhat, we still expect the environment to remain challenging through at least the first half of fiscal 2010. This may include sequential revenue declines in some of our businesses. For fiscal 2010, we expect our sales to be approximately flat compared to fiscal 2009. We expect Airframe Systems sales to increase due to the mid-year acquisition of HR Textron, but anticipate sequential declines through the first half of the year. We are optimistic that most of our businesses are bottoming out now or will in the near future. Signs of stabilization and a possible second-half recovery are appearing in many of our markets.

Therefore, for fiscal 2010 we expect our sales to be between $1.4 billion and $1.5 billion and our diluted earnings per share to be between $1.40 and $1.60.
****************
Non-GAAP Measures: Adjusted earnings per share, segment earnings, operating earnings, EBITDA and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. The use of these measures is not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Securities analysts, investors, and others frequently use adjusted earnings per share, segment earnings, operating earnings, EBITDA and free cash flow in their evaluation of companies, particularly those with significant property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets that are subject to amortization. Management uses operating earnings to evaluate its performance without financing and tax related considerations, as these elements may not fluctuate with operating results. EBITDA is used in reviewing compliance with our debt covenants and in evaluating capital structure impacts of various strategic scenarios. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure which Woodward and others define as cash from operations less capital expenditures.

Operating earnings (earnings before interest and taxes) and EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) are non-GAAP financial measures. The use of these measures is not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Securities analysts, investors, and others frequently use both Operating Earnings and EBITDA in their evaluation of companies, particularly those with significant property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets that are subject to amortization.
Management uses Operating Earnings to evaluate its performance without financing and tax related considerations as these elements may not fluctuate with operating results. EBITDA is used in reviewing compliance with its debt covenants and in evaluating capital structure impacts of various strategic scenarios.
