IDEX REPORTS RECORD SECOND QUARTER RESULTS; RAISES FULL YEAR GUIDANCE;
Q2 SALES UP 11 PERCENT OVERALL AND 9 PERCENT ORGANICALLY;
Q2 REPORTED EPS WAS $1.38 WITH ADJUSTED EPS OF $1.40
LAKE FOREST, IL, JULY 24 - IDEX Corporation (NYSE: IEX) today announced its financial results for the three month period ended June 30, 2018.
Second Quarter 2018 Highlights
| |
• | Orders were up 9 percent overall and 8 percent organically |
| |
• | Sales were up 11 percent overall and 9 percent organically |
| |
• | Reported operating margin was 23.3 percent with adjusted operating margin of 23.6 percent, up 180 bps |
| |
• | Reported EPS was $1.38 with adjusted EPS of $1.40, up 30 percent |
| |
• | Full year adjusted EPS guidance raised to $5.27 to $5.35 |
Second Quarter 2018
Orders of $639.5 million were up 9 percent compared with the prior year period (+8 percent organic, -1 percent divestiture and +2 percent foreign currency translation).
Sales of $634.4 million were up 11 percent compared with the prior year period (+9 percent organic and +2 percent foreign currency translation).
Gross margin of 45.3 percent was up 50 basis points compared with the prior year period primarily due to productivity initiatives and volume leverage, partially offset by higher engineering costs.
Operating income of $147.8 million resulted in an operating margin of 23.3 percent. Excluding $2.0 million of restructuring expenses, adjusted operating income was $149.8 million with an adjusted operating margin of 23.6 percent, up 180 basis points from the prior year period adjusted operating margin. Adjusted operating income drove adjusted EBITDA of $169.4 million which was 27 percent of sales and covered interest expense by 15 times.
Provision for income taxes of $29.6 million in the second quarter of 2018 resulted in an effective tax rate (ETR) of 21.7 percent, which was lower than the prior year period ETR of 26.1 percent primarily due to the enactment of U.S. tax reform in 2017.
Net income was $107.1 million which resulted in EPS of $1.38. Excluding restructuring expenses, adjusted EPS of $1.40 increased 32 cents, or 30 percent, from prior year period adjusted EPS.
Cash from operations of $120.7 million led to free cash flow of $109.7 million, which was up 40 percent from the prior year period and 101 percent of adjusted net income. The increase in free cash flow was primarily due to higher earnings and lower income tax payments.
The Company repurchased 147 thousand shares of common stock for $20.5 million in the second quarter.

“Strength across the board led to record second quarter operating results as we again achieved quarterly all-time highs in orders, sales, operating income and EPS. We delivered strong organic order and sales growth of 8 percent and 9 percent, respectively. Organic revenue growth was strong in all three segments as FMT delivered 10 percent growth, while HST and FSDP both achieved 8 percent growth. Even with robust revenue growth, we still built $5 million of backlog during the quarter, led by organic order growth of 18 percent in FSDP and 7 percent in FMT. Adjusted operating margin increased 180 basis points with margin expansion across all three segments.
|
| |
We continued our commitment to fund our most promising organic opportunities across the Company and our organic growth over the past several quarters has been outstanding. We have now delivered eight consecutive quarters of organic order growth and six consecutive quarters of organic sales growth. M&A remains a priority for the Company and our acquisition funnel is healthy. In June, we purchased the intellectual property assets of Phantom Controls, which will accelerate our water-flow management capabilities within our Fire Suppression businesses. Additionally, just yesterday, we completed the acquisition of Finger Lakes Instrumentation, which will fill an important strategic gap and be a fantastic complement to our existing IDEX Health & Science operations. Over the last several years, IDEX Health & Science has brought together innovative technology companies in fluidics, microfluidics, as well as optical illumination and detection to better serve the fast-growing needs of life science instrument developers. Finally, we distributed $33 million in dividends to shareholders and repurchased 147 thousand shares of common stock for approximately $20 million.
|
| |
Based on our record first half operating results and continued strength across the portfolio, we are raising full year adjusted EPS guidance to $5.27 to $5.35, with third quarter EPS of $1.29 to $1.32. We are also increasing full year organic revenue growth expectations to approximately 7 percent, with 6 to 7 percent expected in the third quarter.”

In July 2018, the Company acquired Finger Lakes Instrumentation, a technology leader in the design, development and production of high speed/sensitivity CCD and CMOS cameras and related automation for the astronomy and life science markets. Finger Lakes Instrumentation, with annual revenue of approximately $10 million, will operate within the Health & Science Technologies segment.
Non-U.S. GAAP Measures of Financial Performance
The Company supplements certain U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics with non-U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics in order to provide investors with better insight and increased transparency while also allowing for a more comprehensive understanding of the financial information used by management in its decision making. Reconciliations of non-U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics to their most comparable U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics are defined and presented below and should not be considered a substitute for, nor superior to, the financial data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. There were no adjustments to U.S. GAAP financial performance metrics other than the items noted below.
| |
• | Organic orders and sales are calculated excluding amounts from acquired or divested businesses during the first twelve months of ownership or divestiture and the impact of foreign currency translation. |
| |
• | Adjusted operating income is calculated as operating income plus restructuring expenses. |
| |
• | Adjusted operating margin is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by net sales. |
| |
• | Adjusted net income is calculated as net income plus restructuring expenses, net of the statutory tax expense or benefit. |
| |
• | EBITDA is calculated as net income plus interest expense plus provision for income taxes plus depreciation and amortization. We reconciled EBITDA to net income on a consolidated basis as we do not allocate consolidated interest expense or consolidated provision for income taxes to our segments. |
| |
• | Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as EBITDA plus restructuring expenses. |
| |
• | Free cash flow is calculated as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. |
