SPX REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2006 RESULTS
Revenues up 10%, Segment Margins Improve 150 Points to 13.0%
Announces Intent to Sell Contech Automotive Components Business
CHARLOTTE, NC – November 1, 2006 – SPX Corporation (NYSE:SPW) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006:
· Revenues increased 9.8% to $1.06 billion from $0.96 billion in the year-ago quarter. Organic revenue growth was 7.9%, while completed acquisitions and the impact of currency fluctuations were the primary drivers of the remaining 1.9% increase in reported revenues. Third quarter 2006 reported revenues were lower than the company’s previous target, primarily due to a $62.0 million impact as a result of reporting the Contech automotive components business as discontinued operations during the quarter.
· Segment income and margins were $137.6 million and 13.0%, compared with $110.6 million and 11.5% in the year-ago quarter. The increase in segment income and margins was driven primarily by improvements in Flow Technology, Test and Measurement and Industrial Products and Services.
· Diluted net income per share from continuing operations (the basis of the company’s guidance) was $0.87, compared with $0.68 in the year-ago quarter. The effective tax rate for the quarter was 38.9%, consistent with the company’s expectations.
· Diluted net income per share, including discontinued operations, was a loss of $0.82, compared with income of $0.49 in the year-ago quarter. The third quarter of 2006 included a loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $98.9 million, or $1.69 per share, driven by a charge of $102.7 million, or $1.76 per share, related to the planned divestiture of the Contech automotive components business. The third quarter of 2005 included a loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, of $15.9 million, or $0.19 per share.
· Adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations during the quarter was $112.5 million, compared with $71.2 million in the year-ago quarter. The increase of $41.3 million was due primarily to the increase in segment income and improvements in working capital.
Chris Kearney, President and CEO said, “We improved in all of our key metrics in the third quarter, continuing the positive momentum we have achieved in each quarter this year. Organic revenue growth remained strong, at 7.9% for the quarter, and segment income exceeded our expectations at $137.6 million, a 24% increase from the year-ago quarter. Segment margins expanded 150 points to 13.0%, and adjusted free cash flow from continuing operations improved $41.3 million to $112.5 million.”
Mr. Kearney continued, “In addition, we have reached an agreement in principle to settle our outstanding Securities Class Action and related ERISA litigation, a significant step forward for the company. Strategically, we have closed the sale of our dock products business for $43.5 million and have committed to a plan to divest the Contech automotive components business, both from our Industrial Products and Services segment. We intend to use the proceeds from these divestitures in a manner consistent with our capital allocation methodology, to improve the company for 2007 and beyond. During the third quarter, we repurchased 1.3 million shares of our common stock for $71.9 million.”
“We are pleased with the strategic actions taken in the quarter, and the continued progress in improving our existing operations. We remain focused on our operating initiatives and executing on the strong demand in our end markets,” Mr. Kearney concluded.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS – CONTINUING OPERATIONS
Flow Technology
Revenues in the third quarter of 2006 were $234.7 million compared to $211.6 million in the third quarter of 2005, an increase of $23.1 million, or 10.9%. The increase was due largely to organic revenue growth of 9.0%, related primarily to strong demand in the power, mining, oil and gas, and dehydration markets, as well as pricing improvements and new product introductions. Currency fluctuations and dispositions netted to increase revenues by 1.9% from the year-ago quarter.
Segment income was $34.6 million, or 14.7% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2006 compared to $25.5 million, or 12.1% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2005. The increase in segment income and margins was due primarily to the organic growth noted above and reductions in operating expenses in 2006 as a result of the favorable impact of 2005 restructuring actions.
Test and Measurement
Revenues in the third quarter of 2006 were $276.7 million compared to $251.8 million in the third quarter of 2005, an increase of $24.9 million, or 9.9%. The increase was due primarily to organic growth of 6.5% driven by increased European OEM volumes and the acquisition of CarTool in the fourth quarter of 2005.
Segment income was $43.8 million, or 15.8% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2006 compared to $33.6 million, or 13.3% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2005. The increase in segment income and margins was due largely to improved profitability in the portable cable and pipe locator product lines, driven by new product introductions and favorable product mix, organic
growth driven by increased European OEM volumes and the successful integration of CarTool, a fourth quarter 2005 acquisition.
Thermal Equipment and Services
Revenues in the third quarter of 2006 were $337.9 million compared to $320.9 million in the third quarter of 2005, an increase of $17.0 million, or 5.3%. The increase was due to organic revenue growth of 3.6%, related largely to the continued strong demand for thermal service and repair work, offset partially by softness in domestic heating markets. Currency fluctuations increased revenues by 1.7% from the year-ago quarter.
Segment income was $34.7 million, or 10.3% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2006 compared to $33.6 million, or 10.5% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2005. As compared to the first half of 2006, segment margins improved by 600 points from 4.3% to the 10.3% reported in the third quarter. Segment income and margins increased due to strong demand for thermal service and repair work and improved operating execution in global dry cooling products, offset partially by a decline in profits in the boiler and heating and ventilation product lines due primarily to softness in those markets, unfavorable mix and higher manufacturing costs.
Industrial Products and Services
Revenues in the third quarter of 2006 were $206.3 million compared to $177.3 million in the third quarter of 2005, an increase of $29.0 million, or 16.4%. The increase was due to organic revenue growth of 16.1%, driven most notably by pricing improvements and increased demand for power transformers, aerospace components and industrial and hydraulic tools. Currency fluctuations increased revenues by 0.3% from the year-ago quarter.
Segment income was $24.5 million, or 11.9% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2006 compared to $17.9 million, or 10.1% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2005. The increase in segment income and margins was driven by the strong organic growth in the end markets noted above, and manufacturing efficiencies achieved from continuous improvement initiatives.
OTHER ITEMS
Discontinued Operations: During the third quarter of 2006, the company committed to a plan to divest its Contech automotive components business, previously reported in its Industrial Products and Services segment.
