ST. PAUL, Minn., February 11, 2010: Ecolab Inc. reported strong fourth quarter earnings as results were led by new account gains, pricing, cost-savings actions and favorable raw material comparisons.
Ecolab’s reported net sales increased 5% to $1.6 billion in the fourth quarter of 2009; measured in fixed currencies, sales rose 2%. Excluding the impact of a change in distributor incentive programs and acquisitions and divestitures, fixed currency sales increased 1%. Net income increased 45% to $116 million. Reported diluted earnings per share increased 45% to $0.48.
Fourth quarter 2009 and 2008 results included special gains and charges and discrete tax items. Excluding those items, adjusted fourth quarter 2009 diluted earnings per share were $0.55, a 22% increase over adjusted fourth quarter 2008 diluted earnings per share of $0.45. The fourth quarter 2009 also included the effects of a change in distributor incentive programs made earlier in the year; this reversed a reduction in sales and earnings in the first quarter 2009 and increased fourth quarter earnings by approximately $0.03 per share.
Segment review
Fourth quarter 2009 sales for Ecolab’s U.S. Cleaning & Sanitizing operations rose 4% to $676 million, led by double-digit gains from Kay and Healthcare. Ecolab’s U.S. Cleaning & Sanitizing operating income rose 29% to $125 million. Excluding the impact of the change in the Institutional distributor incentive program, U.S. Cleaning & Sanitizing sales increased 2% and operating income grew 19%.
U.S. Other Services sales declined 3% to $109 million in the fourth quarter. However, operating income increased 14% to $16 million.
Sales of Ecolab’s International operations, when measured in fixed currencies, rose 1% to $701 million in the fourth quarter. Canada and Asia Pacific enjoyed strong sales growth. Fixed currency operating income increased 5% to $64 million. When measured at public currency rates, International sales increased 8% and operating income grew 13%. Currency translation had a favorable impact on net income growth of approximately $3 million for the fourth quarter of 2009.
The reported income tax rate for the fourth quarter 2009 was 35.6% compared to the reported tax rate of 35.5% for the fourth quarter 2008. Excluding the tax rate impact
of special gains and charges and discrete tax items from both periods, the adjusted effective income tax rate for the fourth quarter 2009 was 31.9% compared with 30.5% in the fourth quarter 2008. The increase in the adjusted fourth quarter effective tax rate was primarily due to lower tax benefits derived from our international operations. The adjusted effective tax rate for the full year 2009, excluding the impact of special gains and charges and discrete tax items, was 31.7% and comparable to our 31.6% tax rate in 2008.
The Corporate segment includes special gains and charges, which are reported as a separate line item in the income statement. Special gains and charges for the fourth quarter 2009 of $13 million included a restructuring charge of $11 million ($8 million after tax) for actions announced in January 2009 that were taken primarily to optimize our workforce as well as other costs to optimize our business structure. Special gains and charges for the fourth quarter 2008 included a charge of $19 million for the write down of investments in an energy management business and the closure of two small non-strategic businesses. The Corporate segment also includes investments in the development of business systems and other corporate investments we are making as part of our ongoing effort to improve our efficiency and returns.
Ecolab reacquired 1.2 million shares of its common stock during the fourth quarter under its share repurchase program.
CEO comment
Commenting on the quarter, Douglas M. Baker, Jr., Ecolab’s Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer said, “We are proud of our accomplishments in 2009. The severe global recession had a significant impact on our foodservice and hospitality markets and customers, and made it one of the toughest years in memory for all of us. We took aggressive actions in response, working closely with our customers to provide them with effective cost-saving solutions for their cleaning and sanitizing needs, driving hard to win new accounts, reducing our costs and streamlining our processes. These actions were effective as we strengthened our customer relationships and grew our business, and made the right investments to accelerate our growth. My thanks to our many customers for their business, and to our outstanding team of Ecolab associates who worked hard to achieve these results.
“While we do not expect a significant rebound in our end markets in 2010, we have seen a clear bottoming. We have moved fully onto offense and will drive to achieve superior results for our customers and shareholders. We are focused on delivering double-digit earnings per share growth in 2010. We plan to build momentum through the year by driving share in our core markets; continuing the recent acceleration in future growth investments, including our healthcare, water and waste management, China and Latin America businesses; making significant investments in our sales and service team and field technology; and continuing our approach to doing what is right for our business. We also know our opportunity remains abundant. We are the leader in a huge global market, with tremendous growth opportunities in every one of our businesses. We have a rich technology base from which we will deliver more innovative solutions to customer needs. And we have a terrific team of associates whose creative and bold approach to solving problems continues to fuel our long term growth. The year before us will have its challenges, but we have the right tools, the right people and the right plans to deliver another year of superior service to our customers and superior returns to our shareholders.”
Business Outlook
2010 — Full Year
Ecolab expects adjusted earnings per share, which exclude special gains and charges and discrete tax items, for the full year ending December 31, 2010 to be in the $2.17 to $2.25 range. Currently quantifiable special gains and charges for 2010 are expected to be approximately $0.03 per share unfavorable, including $0.02 per share related to the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency in the first quarter. Ecolab expects additional charges may be incurred during the year reflecting efforts to be undertaken to drive efficiencies in the business, though 2010 special gains and charges are expected to be dramatically lower than the $0.24 per share unfavorable reported in 2009. Amounts related to discrete tax items for 2010, if any, are not currently quantifiable.
2010 — First Quarter
Ecolab expects modest sales growth in the first quarter 2010 over the first
quarter 2009; currency translation is expected to have a favorable effect on reported sales. Gross margins are projected to expand as we recover from the high raw material cost increases in prior years. The SG&A ratio will reflect investments we are making in people and systems for future growth and compare against significant cost reductions and restructuring actions made in last year’s quarter. The tax rate is expected to decline versus the prior year because of increased tax benefits from our international operations and U.S. tax law changes. Our outlook for the first quarter of 2010, excluding special gains and charges and discrete tax items, is as follows:
Gross margin | approx. 50% |
SG&A % of sales | 39% - 40% |
Interest expense, net | approx. $15 million |
Effective tax rate | 30% - 31% |
Adjusted EPS, excluding special gains and charges and discrete tax items | $0.36 - $0.40 |
Special gains and charges | approx. ($0.02) |
First quarter 2009 results included special charges and discrete tax items of an unfavorable $0.09 per share. Excluding those items, adjusted first quarter 2009 diluted earnings per share were $0.33.

This news release and certain of the accompanying tables include financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP). These Non-GAAP financial measures include fixed currency sales, fixed currency sales excluding the impact of a change in distributor incentive programs and acquisitions and divestitures, fixed currency operating income, adjusted effective tax rate excluding the tax rate impact of special gains and charges and discrete tax items, and adjusted diluted earnings per share excluding special gains and charges and discrete tax items. We provide these measures as additional information regarding our operating results. We use these Non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate our performance and in making financial and operational decisions, including with respect to incentive compensation. We believe that our presentation of these measures provides investors with greater transparency with respect to our results of operations and that these measures are useful for period-to-period comparison of results.
We evaluate the performance of our International operations based on fixed currency rates of foreign exchange. Fixed currency sales and fixed currency operating income measures eliminate the impact of exchange rate fluctuations on our international sales and operating income, respectively, and promote a better understanding of our sales and operating income trends from underlying business performance. Fixed currency amounts included in this release are based on translation into U.S. dollars at the fixed foreign currency exchange rates established by management at the beginning of 2009.
The adjusted effective tax rate measure promotes period-to-period comparability of the underlying effective tax rate because the amounts excluded do not necessarily reflect costs associated with historical trends or expected future costs.
We include in special gains and charges items that are either unusual in nature or significant in amount and important to an understanding of underlying business performance. In order to better allow investors to compare underlying business performance period-to-period, we provide adjusted diluted earnings per share, which excludes special gains and charges and discrete tax items.
These Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative to, GAAP, and may be different from Non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Investors should not rely on any single financial measure when evaluating our business. We recommend that investors view these measures in conjunction with
the GAAP measures included in this news release.
This news release contains various “Forward-Looking Statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These include statements concerning our 2010 first quarter and full year financial and business prospects, including estimated sales, gross margins, selling, general and administrative expense, growth investments, interest expense, special gains and charges, effective tax rates, currency translation, end-market economic activity, and adjusted diluted earnings per share. These statements, which represent Ecolab’s expectations or beliefs concerning various future events, are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those of such Forward-Looking Statements. We caution that undue reliance should not be placed on Forward-Looking Statements, which speak only as of the date made.
Risks and uncertainties that may affect operating results and business performance are set forth under Item 1A of our most recent Form 10-Q and include the vitality of the markets we serve; the impact of worldwide economic factors such as the worldwide economy, credit markets, interest rates and foreign currency risk; fluctuations in raw material and delivered product costs; our ability to develop competitive advantages through innovation; restraints on pricing flexibility due to contractual obligations; pressure on operations from consolidation of customers, vendors or competitors; the ability to acquire complementary businesses and to effectively integrate such businesses; the impact of investments to develop business systems or to optimize our business structure; the costs and effects of complying with laws and regulations relating to the environment and to the manufacture, storage, distribution, sale and use of our products; changes in laws, regulations or accounting standards; public health epidemics; the occurrence of litigation or claims, acts of war, terrorism, severe weather or natural or man-made disasters; the loss or insolvency of a major customer, supplier or distributor; our ability to attract and retain high caliber management talent; and other uncertainties or risks reported from time to time in our reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Except as may be required under applicable law, we undertake no duty to update our Forward-Looking Statements.
