LITTELFUSE REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR RESULTS
CHICAGO, February 4, 2015–Littelfuse, Inc. (NASDAQ:LFUS) today reported sales and earnings for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ending December 27, 2014.
Fourth Quarter Highlights
| ● | Sales for the fourth quarter of 2014 were $207 million, a 4% increase (7% excluding currency effects) compared to the prior-year quarter due primarily to continued strong growth in the automotive business. Excluding acquisitions, sales increased 2% (4% excluding currency effects) compared to the prior year. |
| ● | On a GAAP basis, fourth quarter 2014 earnings were $0.86 per diluted share. This included $4.7 million of special items comprised primarily of restructuring charges and non-operating foreign exchange losses related to balance sheet revaluation (see Supplemental Financial Information on page 9). Excluding these special items, earnings for the fourth quarter of 2014 were $1.02 per diluted share. |
| ● | In addition to the restructuring charges mentioned above, operating income for the fourth quarter was negatively impacted by the following: |
| o | Foreign currency effects primarily related to the company’s long euro exposure. In total these currency effects negatively affected operating income by approximately $2.1 million in the fourth quarter. |
| o | Year-end true up of certain accruals including those for customer credits, inventory reserves and medical and post-retirement plans. In total these expenses negatively affected operating income by approximately $1.9 million in the fourth quarter. |
| o | Performance issues at a few of the company’s plants including reduced production volumes and higher overhead expenses. In total these plant performance issues negatively affected operating income by approximately $1.0 million in the fourth quarter. |
| ● | The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter was favorably impacted by the mix of income (less income in high tax jurisdictions) and various favorable adjustments. |

| ● | Sales trends by business unit for the fourth quarter were as follows: |
| o | Electronics sales increased 1% year over year (3% excluding currency effects) reflecting sales growth in constant currency in all regions. |
| o | Automotive sales increased 10% year over year (14% excluding currency effects) reflecting growth across all product categories and all regions. |
| o | Electrical sales were flat year over year. Excluding the effects of the SymCom acquisition and currency, electrical sales declined 12% year over year due primarily to continued weakness in mining and lower sales into the solar market. As expected, sales of the company’s custom products increased compared to the third quarter of 2014. |
| ● | The electronics book-to-bill ratio for the fourth quarter of 2014 was 1.06 (1.00 excluding Sensors). |
| ● | Cash provided by operating activities was $49.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2014 compared to $31.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2013. Capital expenditures for the fourth quarter of 2014 were $12.9 million compared to $9.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2013. |
Full Year Highlights
| ● | Sales for 2014 were $852.0 million, a 12.4% increase compared to 2013. Organic growth for the year was 5.0% and acquisition growth was 7.4%. |
| ● | On a GAAP basis, 2014 earnings were $4.37 per diluted share, an 11% increase compared to 2013. |
| ● | Excluding special items, 2014 earnings were $4.78 per diluted share, a 7% increase compared to 2013. |
| ● | Cash flow from operating activities for 2014 was $153.1 million, a 30% increase compared to 2013. |
“After strong performance for the first three quarters of the year, fourth quarter earnings were below our expectations,” said Gordon Hunter, Chief Executive Officer. “The combination of unfavorable currency effects, non-recurring charges and poor execution in a few areas of the business made for a challenging quarter. While we will continue to be impacted by currency headwinds for the foreseeable future, we will also be taking a number of corrective actions including selective price increases, more aggressive expense controls and, where possible, moving faster on our various restructuring efforts.”
“Despite the disappointing results for the fourth quarter, our full year performance was solid,” said Phil Franklin, Chief Financial Officer. “Cash flow continues to be a bright spot as we generated cash from operating activities of $153.1 million for 2014. This beat our previous record by over $30 million.”

Outlook.
| ● | Sales for the first quarter of 2015 are expected to be in the range of $202 to $212 million which represents flat revenue at the midpoint compared to the prior year after currency effects (approximately 4% growth in constant currency). |
| ● | Earnings for the first quarter of 2015 are expected to be in the range of $1.00 to $1.14 per diluted share. This includes negative currency effects of approximately $0.10 compared to the prior year. |
“It now seems likely that we will be facing currency headwinds for much of 2015,” said Franklin. “At the current exchange rates, we estimate that sales would be negatively impacted by approximately $30 million and earnings by approximately 40 cents per share compared to 2014. Nevertheless, with our planned improvements in the electrical, automotive sensor and CVP businesses, continued solid performance in the core automotive and electronics businesses and a lower tax rate, we believe we can achieve 2015 earnings above $5.00 per share.
Dividend
The company will pay a cash dividend of $0.25 per common share on March 5, 2015 to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 13, 2015.
