MANITOWOC REPORTS RECORD FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR 2008
· Full-year 2008 net sales from continuing operations totaled $4.5 billion, a 22 percent increase over 2007
· Full-year 2008 operating earnings from continuing operations reached $519.8 million, a 9 percent increase over the prior year
· 2008 cash from operations rose 32 percent to $323 million
· 2008 EVA totaled $231 million, up 12 percent versus 2007
MANITOWOC, Wis. — Jan. 28, 2009 — The Manitowoc Company, Inc. (NYSE: MTW) reported sales of $1.22 billion for the fourth quarter of 2008, a 16 percent increase from $1.05 billion in the fourth quarter of 2007. Results for the quarter were a net loss of $36.5 million, or a loss of $0.28 per share, versus earnings of $99.2 million, or $0.76 per share in the fourth quarter of the prior year. The earnings decline was due to the acquisition of Enodis plc, partially offset by the gain on the divestiture of the Marine segment, both of which were completed during the fourth quarter of 2008.
Excluding the impacts of the Enodis acquisition, the gain on sale of the Marine segment, the early extinguishment of debt, and a restructuring charge taken in the Crane segment, earnings from continuing operations for the quarter were $66.5 million, or $0.51 per share, versus $96.1 million, or $0.74 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2007. A reconciliation of GAAP earnings to earnings from continuing operations before special items for the three months and 12 months ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 is included later in this release.
For the full year 2008, sales were $4.50 billion, a 22 percent increase from $3.68 billion in 2007. Net earnings for 2008 were $174.0 million, or $1.32 per share, versus $336.7 million, or $2.64 per share in the prior year. Excluding the special items described in the reconciliation below, earnings from continuing operations for 2008 were $407.4 million, or $3.10 per share, versus $341.1 million, or $2.68 per share in 2007. This shortfall compared to prior guidance is due to the after tax impact of the Crane restructuring charge taken in December 2008.
“This has been a transformational year for Manitowoc,” said Glen Tellock, president and chief executive officer. “We are successfully executing our long-term strategy of building market-leadership positions in our two core markets: cranes and commercial foodservice equipment. In addition, we have divested our Marine segment and are now focusing all resources and management efforts on expanding our competitive position within our two remaining segments.
“Like most companies, we are feeling the impact of the global economic slowdown. We have taken appropriate actions and we will make additional changes to our businesses as market dynamics continue to unfold in 2009. We intend to build on our leadership positions during this slowdown and emerge as an even stronger competitor.”
Business Segment Results
Fourth-quarter 2008 net sales in the Crane segment were $943.6 million, essentially flat with net sales of $945.5 million in the prior year. Crane segment operating earnings for the fourth quarter of 2008 decreased to $114.9 million from $141.7 million in the same period last year. Crane segment backlog totaled $1.9 billion at December 31, 2008, a decrease of 34 percent from the $2.9 billion backlog at December 31, 2007.
“As we stated in our January 8 announcement, we are experiencing a weakening demand in the Crane segment, and we estimate a decline in crane sales of approximately 20 percent in 2009,” said Tellock. “Although demand for lighter lift capacity cranes has softened globally, demand for higher capacity cranes in the U.S. and Asia remains relatively stable. However, demand in Europe and the Middle East has weakened considerably compared to the peak we experienced in the first half of 2008.”
In the Foodservice segment, fourth-quarter 2008 net sales increased 172 percent to $273.0 million from $100.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. Operating earnings for the fourth quarter of 2008 were $3.2 million, down from $10.2 million in the same period in 2007. Excluding special items related to the acquisition of Enodis, operating earnings were
$13.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Organic revenue for the Foodservice segment declined 6.2 percent for the latest quarter compared to the fourth quarter of 2007 and grew 1.0 percent for the full year compared to 2007 results. The Foodservice segment is expected to generate organic growth in the low single-digit range in 2009, despite the global recession. Taking into account the acquisition of Enodis and related asset sales expected later this year, we estimate that overall sales for the Foodservice segment will be approximately $1.7 billion in 2009. This excludes the results of the Enodis ice business.
Results from Discontinued Operations
The Marine segment and Enodis ice businesses generated sales of $109.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2008, and $415.1 million for the full year. Operating earnings were $9.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2008 and $52.9 million for the full year.
The Marine segment was sold to Fincantieri Marine Group Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of Fincantieri - Cantieri Navali Italiani SpA (Fincantieri) effective as of December 31, 2008. The sale price was approximately $120 million, which generated an after-tax gain of $62.8 million, or $0.48 per share. Proceeds from the sale were used to partially pay down Term Loan X at year-end. The Enodis ice businesses are classified as held-for-sale at December 31, 2008.
GAAP Reconciliation
In this release, the company refers to various non-GAAP measures. The company believes that these measures are helpful to investors in assessing the company’s ongoing performance of its underlying businesses before the impact of special items. In addition, these non-GAAP measures provide a comparison to commonly used financial metrics within the professional investing community which do not include special items. Earnings and earnings per share before special items reconcile to earnings presented according to GAAP as follows (in millions, except per share data):

2009 Guidance
“We are reiterating our previous earnings guidance for 2009 of $1.35 to $1.60 per diluted share, before special items,” Tellock added. “This is based on anticipated revenue of approximately $3.2 billion for the Crane segment and approximately $1.7 billion in the Foodservice segment. These expected results include the full-year impact of the Enodis acquisition, excluding the Enodis ice operation. Operating margins for both segments are projected to be in the low double-digit percentage range for the year.”
Other 2009 financial expectations include capital expenditures of approximately $120 million; depreciation and amortization of approximately $135 million; debt reduction of $1 billion post-funding of Enodis through the end of 2009; and an anticipated tax rate in the mid-20 percent range.
