CHICAGO, August 11, 2008—JBT Corporation (NYSE: JBT), a leading global technology solutions provider to the food processing and air transportation industries, today reported second quarter 2008 results following the July 31, 2008 spin-off from FMC Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FTI).
For the second quarter of 2008, revenue of $276.7 million increased 16 percent from $237.9 million in the second quarter of 2007. Pre-tax income from continuing operations of $19.5 million increased 68 percent from $11.6 million in the prior year quarter. Net income of $13.0 million increased 67 percent from $7.8 million in the second quarter of 2007. Pro forma diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.42, up 91 percent from $0.22 per diluted share in the prior year quarter.
“We are pleased to provide this inaugural earnings release as an independent public company. We have accomplished a lot in a short period of time, all while continuing to deliver strong results. Over the past year, we have devoted significant resources to the successful separation from our parent company. We have established a top notch Board of Directors, initiated sound corporate governance practices and filled several key senior executive positions. We believe we are well positioned to capture future growth opportunities and create value for our shareholders,” said Charlie H. Cannon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
JBT FoodTech
JBT FoodTech’s second quarter revenue of $159.9 million increased 5 percent from $152.0 million in the same period last year primarily driven by foreign currency translation. Second quarter JBT FoodTech segment operating profit of $15.8 million increased 52 percent from $10.4 million in the second quarter of last year. Segment operating margin expanded to 9.9 percent from 6.8 percent for the same period last year primarily due to favorable product mix as well as a higher proportion of aftermarket revenue. Inbound orders totaled $147.0 million during the quarter, up 3 percent versus $142.2 million in last year’s second quarter. Backlog of $154.7 million was down 12 percent from $176.5 million in the prior year quarter.

JBT AeroTech
JBT AeroTech’s second quarter revenue of $117.0 million increased 35 percent from $86.7 million in the same period last year primarily due to higher ground support equipment volume. Strong cargo loader sales to international airlines as well as increased passenger boarding bridge sales to domestic airport authorities contributed to the favorable comparison. Second quarter JBT AeroTech segment operating profit increased 62 percent to $10.5 million from $6.5 million in the same period last year due to the higher volume and leveraging selling and administrative costs, partially offset by higher steel costs. Segment operating margin increased to 9.0 percent from 7.5 percent last year. Inbound orders totaled $98.9 million, down 24 percent from $130.7 million in last year’s second quarter. Backlog of $187.6 million was down 17 percent from $225.4 million in the prior year quarter primarily due to industry and economic conditions facing airlines and air freight companies.
Corporate Items
Corporate expense in the second quarter of 2008 was $3.0 million, in line with the prior year quarter.
Other expense, net, of $4.0 million increased $1.6 million from the second quarter of 2007.
The company recorded an effective tax rate of 33.3 percent for continuing operations in the second quarter.
In July 2008, the company issued $75 million senior unsecured notes payable on July 31, 2015. In addition, the company entered into a $225 million, 5-year revolving credit facility. On July 31, 2008, a $150.5 million initial dividend was paid to FMC Technologies, Inc. in connection with the spin-off transaction. The final dividend amount will be determined by a “true-up” process in accordance with the Separation and Distribution Agreement between the companies.

For the six months ended June 30, 2008, total revenue of $536.9 million increased 24 percent from $432.7 million during the same period last year.
