(CSL) Carlisle Companies Reports Record Quarterly and Six Month Sales and Earnings
CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA, July 15, 2004…Carlisle Companies Incorporated (NYSE:CSL) reported earnings of $39.2 million, or $1.25 per diluted share from continuing operations in the second quarter 2004, compared to $28.8 million or $0.94 per diluted share from continuing operations in the second quarter 2003. Net earnings of $37.4 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, were 31% above the second quarter 2003 and included $1.8 million or $0.06 per diluted share of losses from discontinued operations. Net earnings for the second quarter 2003 were $28.6 million or $0.93 per diluted share, which included $0.2 million or $0.01 per diluted share of earnings from discontinued operations.
Net sales of $640.7 million in the second quarter were 17% over second quarter 2003 net sales of $545.8 million. Carlisle set net sales and earnings records for the quarter and the first six months of the year. Organic net sales growth of $93.3 million or 17% in the second quarter 2004 accounted for significantly all of the increase over the second quarter 2003 and included $2.9 million of favorable changes in foreign currency rates. The impact of foreign currency rates on net earnings was negligible. The growth in net sales was primarily attributable to the Construction Materials, General Industry and Industrial Components segments. Acquisitions contributed $4.7 million of the growth in the second quarter 2004 net sales, partially offset by $3.1 million in divestitures.
Net sales of $1.19 billion for the six month period ended June 30, 2004 were 18% above the first six months 2003 net sales of $1.01 billion. Earnings of $64.2 million, or $2.05 per diluted share from continuing operations in the first half of 2004, compared to $45.9 million or $1.50 per diluted share from continuing operations in the first half of 2003. Net earnings in the first half of 2004 of $61.1 million or $1.95 per diluted share were 34% above the same period in 2003 and included $3.1 million in losses from discontinued operations compared to $45.6 million or $1.49 per diluted share realized in the first six months of 2003, which included $0.3 million or $0.01 per diluted share in losses from discontinued operations.
Earnings from continuing operations in the second quarter 2004 included a $0.01 per diluted share charge related to plant closure and severance costs, compared to a $0.03 per diluted share charge in the second quarter 2003. Earnings from
1
continuing operations for the first half of 2004 included a $0.06 per diluted share charge for plant closure and severance costs, compared to a $0.04 per diluted share charge in the first half of 2003.
Richmond McKinnish, Carlisle’s President and CEO said, “Our strong organic sales growth in the second quarter is very encouraging, however, we were somewhat disappointed in our earnings performance. Although we have been able to obtain selling price increases in many of the markets we serve, we have been unable to fully offset the continuing steep rise in raw material costs during the quarter. Actions are underway to obtain future selling price increases. In spite of the raw material challenge, we are confident that Carlisle will continue to experience earnings improvement in the second half of the year and are therefore increasing guidance for continuing operations to $3.50 to $3.60 per diluted share.”
On June 30, 2004, Carlisle announced the acquisition of the specialty tire and wheel business of Trintex Corporation, North America’s leading manufacturer of semi-pneumatic tires and wheels for the lawn and garden and industrial markets. Trintex sales in 2003 were approximately $33 million. Trintex’s positive addition to Carlisle’s portfolio extends our product line offering to the specialty tire and wheel markets. This acquisition is included in the Industrial Components segment as part of Carlisle Tire & Wheel’s operations.
The following segment discussion excludes the impact of discontinued operations.
Industrial Components net sales in the second quarter 2004 of $195.5 million were 13% above $172.6 million in the second quarter 2003. Second quarter 2004 net sales at Carlisle Tire & Wheel Company were 13% above the second quarter 2003 as a result of increased sales across all product lines, with most of the increase attributable to sales of ATV tires and wheels, styled wheels and commercial lawn care products. Power Transmission net sales were 13% above the second quarter 2003 with most of the sales improvement in the lawn and grounds care, agricultural, recreational and international sales markets. Second quarter 2004 earnings before interest and income taxes (“EBIT”) of $21.9 million were 9% above $20.1 million in the second quarter 2003. The earnings results were disappointing and reflect the increases for steel in the wheel business and oil-based commodities used in the tire manufacturing process. Selling price increases have been implemented at Carlisle Tire & Wheel, but the financial impact of the increases has not been sufficient to fully offset the continuing rise in raw material costs occurring in the global economy.
Construction Materials net sales of $187.5 million in the second quarter were 21% above the second quarter 2003 net sales of $154.4 million with improved sales in all product lines, especially in North American sales of commercial roofing, which accounted for approximately two-thirds of the increase in net sales. Second quarter 2004 EBIT of $28.0 million was 27% above the second quarter 2003 EBIT of $22.0
2
million. The second quarter 2004 EBIT includes a 23% increase in earnings at Carlisle SynTec, and a $1.1 million improvement in earnings at Carlisle’s European roofing joint venture (“Icopal”). The improvement in EBIT at Carlisle SynTec was primarily due to the significant increase in net sales. Gains on insurance recoveries of $1.9 million in the second quarter 2004 and $2.1 million in the second quarter 2003 related to fires at two small coatings and waterproofing manufacturing plants at Carlisle SynTec.
Automotive Components net sales of $50.3 million in the second quarter 2004 were 3% above the second quarter 2003 of $48.9 million. Although North American vehicle production was down in the second quarter 2004 versus the second quarter 2003, new programs at a few of Carlisle Engineered Products’ major automotive customers accounted for the increase in net sales. The $(2.0) million EBIT loss in the second quarter 2004 compares to earnings of $2.6 million in the second quarter 2003. Approximately $3.4 million in losses for the segment were the result of excess manufacturing and inspection costs caused by the transfer of defective tooling provided by a customer as part of their supply program. Negotiations with the customer are ongoing and a resolution is expected.
Transportation Products net sales of $40.0 million were 20% above second quarter 2003 net sales of $33.2 million. The improvement in net sales was across most product lines with most of the increase in shipments of large construction trailers, pneumatic bulk trailers, steel dump and live-bottom trailers. Selling price surcharges were implemented in March 2004, which offset approximately half of the raw material price increases in the second quarter 2004. EBIT of $2.5 million was 67% above the second quarter 2003. The earnings improvement was primarily the result of increased sales, a favorable sales mix, selling price increases and lower manufacturing costs due to improved efficiencies on higher production volume.
Second quarter 2004 net sales in the Specialty Products segment of $37.7 million were 4% above $36.4 million in the second quarter 2003. The sales increase was driven by demand in the OEM and aftermarket for braking systems for off-highway and industrial equipment products. Segment EBIT of $4.1 million was 141% above $1.7 million in the second quarter 2003. The earnings improvement was primarily the result of improved manufacturing efficiencies and lower selling and administrative expenses.
General Industry net sales of $129.7 million in the second quarter were 29% above $100.3 million in the second quarter 2003. Net sales at Carlisle Process Systems were 81% above the second quarter 2003 as a result of increased purchases of cheese and powder capital equipment by dairy and food processors and the impact of a $70.0 million project for a new cheese and whey production facility in Clovis, New Mexico. Carlisle FoodService net sales were 23% over the second quarter 2003 with 62% of the increase attributable to the acquisition of Flo-Pac in the second quarter 2003. Tensolite net sales were 26% above the second quarter 2003 due to increased sales in all their product lines, with most of the increase in sales of high density/high speed, RF/Microwave and general assembly products. Carlisle Walker net sales in the second quarter 2004 were 7% below the second quarter 2003 as a
3
result of lower sales in the equipment group. Johnson Truck Bodies net sales in the second quarter were consistent with last year as the demand for insulated temperature controlled truck bodies and trailers is equivalent to prior year levels.
Segment EBIT of $12.2 million was significantly higher than $2.2 million recorded in the second quarter 2003 as most of the operations in this segment improved their earnings performance. The increase was primarily the result of earnings improvement at Carlisle Process Systems, Carlisle Walker and Tensolite.
In accordance with FAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” Carlisle has identified the assets associated with three operations in the Industrial Components, Automotive Components, and General Industry segments as discontinued operations. The discontinued operations include the Trenton, South Carolina operation of Carlisle Tire & Wheel Company which is reported in the Industrial Components segment, the rubber operations of Carlisle Engineered Products in the Automotive Components segment, and the pottery business that is part of Carlisle FoodService in the General Industry segment. Carlisle is actively marketing the operations and conducting other actions required to complete the plan to sell the assets.
Losses from discontinued operations in the second quarter 2004 were $1.8 million compared to losses of $0.2 million in the second quarter 2003. Losses from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30 were $3.1 million in 2004 and $0.3 million in 2003.
Cash flow from continuing operations of $56.7 million in the first six months of 2004 was above $31.8 million realized in the same period in 2003. The improvement in operating cash flows was driven exclusively by increased utilization of the securitization program. Increased working capital to support increased revenues more than offset the cash generated from improved results. Cash used in investing activities was $53.9 million in the first half of 2004 compared to $49.3 million in the first half of 2003 and includes the acquisition of Trintex in June 2004. Capital expenditures of $35.8 million were substantially above $17.6 million in the first half of 2003 as a result of new production plants for coating and waterproofing products and insulation products for the Construction Materials segment. Proceeds from the sale of investments, property and equipment include the sale of properties acquired in the acquisition of Flo-Pac.
The June 30, 2004 backlog from continuing operation of $403 million was 31% above $307 million at June 30, 2003 and was below $427 million at March 31, 2004. Most segments, especially General Industry and Construction Materials, reported a
4
higher backlog position compared to the second quarter 2003. The decrease in backlog from the first quarter was due to percentage of completion billings in the General Industry segment at Process Systems and due to the seasonality of orders.
