Actuant Reports Improved First Quarter Results; Increases Fiscal 2012 Earnings Guidance
MILWAUKEE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--December 21, 2011--Actuant Corporation (NYSE: ATU) today announced results for its first quarter ended November 30, 2011.
Highlights
- 39% year-over-year increase in diluted earnings per share from continuing operations (“EPS”) to $0.50.
- Core sales growth of 7% (total sales less the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency rate changes) with double digit core sales growth in both the Industrial and Energy segments.
- Year-over-year operating profit margin expansion of 150 basis points.
- Purchased approximately one million shares of common stock under the previously announced share repurchase program.
- Increased full year guidance to reflect strong first quarter results and completed share repurchases.
Robert C. Arzbaecher, Chairman and CEO of Actuant commented, “Actuant delivered another strong quarter with sales, EPS and cash flow solidly above expectations. In particular, we were pleased with the first quarter’s double digit core sales growth in both the Industrial and Energy segments. Our execution was outstanding as we generated year-over-year EBITDA margin improvement in all four segments while continuing to invest in our Growth + Innovation initiatives. Finally, we completed the repurchase of nearly one million common shares, deploying approximately $20 million of the first quarter’s free cash flow on what we believe is an attractive investment. I want to thank our employees for their efforts in delivering a great start to the year.”
Consolidated Results
Consolidated sales for the first quarter were $393 million, 23% higher than the comparable prior year quarter. Core sales increased 7% with acquisitions contributing an additional 15% and the weaker U.S. dollar +1%. Fiscal 2012 first quarter net earnings from continuing operations were $37.2 million compared to $26.7 million in the comparable prior year quarter. EPS of $0.50 in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was 39% higher than the $0.36 in the comparable prior year quarter.
Segment Results
Industrial Segment
(US $ in millions)
| | | | | Three Months Ended
November 30, |
| | | | | 2011 | | 2010 |
| Sales | | | | | $100.3 | | $87.4 |
| Operating Profit | | | | | $27.9 | | $20.2 |
| Operating Profit % | | | | | 27.9% | | 23.1% |
First quarter fiscal 2012 Industrial segment sales were $100 million, 15% higher than the prior year. Excluding foreign currency rate changes (+2%), core sales increased 13% reflecting higher demand across nearly all geographies and served markets. Notably, the segment’s vertical market penetration strategies and new products continue to gain traction. Year-over-year operating profit margins improved 480 basis points due primarily to the higher volumes as well as favorable mix.
Energy Segment
(US $ in millions)
| | | | | Three Months Ended
November 30, |
| | | | | 2011 | | | 2010 |
| Sales | | | | | $80.4 | | | $70.7 |
| Operating Profit | | | | | $13.2 | | | $11.9 |
| Operating Profit % | | | | | 16.4% | | | 16.8% |
Fiscal 2012 first quarter year-over-year Energy segment sales increased 14% to $80 million. Excluding the 2% favorable foreign currency impact, core sales increased 12% due primarily to higher activity levels in both maintenance and capital spending within the oil & gas and power generation markets. Continued penetration into emerging markets and energy service adjacencies also contributed to the sales growth. Current year first quarter operating profit margin was 16.4%, a modest decline from the prior year due to unfavorable mix.
Electrical Segment
(US $ in millions)
| | | | | Three Months Ended
November 30, |
| | | | | 2011 | | | 2010 |
| Sales | | | | | $82.8 | | | $55.4 |
| Operating Profit | | | | | $5.0 | | | $3.8 |
| Operating Profit % | | | | | 6.0% | | | 6.8% |
Electrical segment fiscal 2012 first quarter sales were $83 million, 50% higher than the comparable prior year quarter. Excluding the 1% favorable foreign currency impact and 42% contribution from the Mastervolt acquisition, core sales increased 7%. This core sales improvement reflected higher volumes in the retail, industrial and utility markets as well as the impact of price increases. Mastervolt solar sales benefitted from aggressive sales promotions and higher shipments in the UK. First quarter operating profit margin declined 80 basis points from the prior year due to unfavorable acquisition mix and plant closure costs.
Engineered Solutions Segment
(US $ in millions)
| | | | | Three Months Ended
November 30, |
| | | | | 2011 | | | 2010 |
| Sales | | | | | $129.3 | | | $104.9 |
| Operating Profit | | | | | $19.0 | | | $13.8 |
| Operating Profit % | | | | | 14.7% | | | 13.2% |
First quarter fiscal 2012 Engineered Solutions segment sales increased 23% from the prior year to $129 million. Excluding the impact of the weaker U.S. dollar (+1%), and the Weasler acquisition (+22%), year-over-year core sales were unchanged. First quarter sales reflected increased heavy-duty truck production in North America and Europe which was more than offset by year-over-year declines in automotive sales. Demand for products in the agriculture and construction equipment markets remained strong. First quarter operating margins increased 150 basis points year-over-year due to underlying sales growth in the segment’s most profitable end markets.
Corporate
Corporate expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 were $7.8 million, in line with the comparable prior year period. Higher spending on increased staffing and Growth + Innovation activities was offset by lower acquisition and incentive compensation costs.
Financial Position
Net debt at November 30, 2011 was $482 million (total debt of $530 million less $48 million of cash), essentially unchanged from fiscal year end. Actuant’s first quarter cash flow was significantly stronger than the prior year quarter. The Company used approximately $20 million of cash flow to repurchase nearly one million common shares during the quarter. At November 30, 2011, the Company had net debt to EBITDA leverage of 1.8 times and over $525 million of revolver availability.
Outlook
Commenting on Actuant’s outlook, Arzbaecher stated, “We are off to a strong start to the year with first quarter sales, net earnings and cash flow ahead of plan. We believe we will achieve record highs for these financial metrics in fiscal 2012. The current economic environment creates uncertainty for Actuant and its customers. Therefore, despite the robust year-over-year growth we have enjoyed over the past quarters, we anticipate that economic conditions in some of our served geographies, most notably Europe, could provide for more challenging business conditions going forward.
“Taking these factors into account, as well as our recent stock repurchases and solid growth in our most profitable segments, we are raising our full year EPS and cash flow guidance. We now expect full year EPS to be in the $1.85-2.05 range, a $0.05 per share increase from our prior expectations. Since the current strong US dollar creates currency translation headwinds, we are maintaining our $1.60-1.65 billion sales guidance. We are expecting fiscal 2012 full year free cash flow to be in the $160-170 million range, a $5 million increase above our prior guidance range.
“We expect second quarter sales to be in the $360-370 million range, with EPS of $0.35-0.40, a 25% year-over-year improvement at the mid-point of the range. The second quarter outlook incorporates the normal seasonal slowdown experienced across nearly all of our underlying businesses. Consistent with past practice, all guidance excludes the impact of potential future acquisitions and additional share repurchases.
“We continue to benefit from our diversity with solid demand across the majority of our end markets and geographies. At the same time, we are successfully executing on our continuous improvement initiatives focused on both growth and margin expansion. These factors have contributed to our strong performance and provide us with optimism that we’ll be able to deliver continued growth in earnings and cash flow."

| (1) | | EBITDA represents net earnings before financing costs, net, income tax expense, depreciation & amortization and discontinued operations. EBITDA is not a calculation based upon generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The amounts included in the EBITDA calculation, however, are derived from amounts included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings data. EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings or operating profit as an indicator of the Company's operating performance, or as an alternative to operating cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Actuant has presented EBITDA because it regularly reviews this as a measure of the Company's ability to incur and service debt. In addition, EBITDA is used by many of our investors and lenders, and is presented as a convenience to them. However, the EBITDA measure presented may not always be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies due to differences in the components of the calculation. |
