Exhibit 99.1
Chart Industries Reports 2013 Second Quarter Results
Cleveland, Ohio – July 30, 2013 - Chart Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: GTLS), a leading independent global manufacturer of highly engineered equipment used in the production, storage and end-use of hydrocarbon and industrial gases, today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013. Highlights include:
| |
• | Sales up 24% from prior year quarter |
| |
• | Record D&S order intake of $222.1 million led by LNG demand |
| |
• | Record backlog of $664.0 million |
| |
• | Receives awards for small scale LNG production plant and ethylene plant |
| |
• | Announces new third quarter award in excess of $50 million to provide LNG equipment to PetroChina |
Net income for the second quarter of 2013 was $20.0 million, or $0.64 per diluted share. This compares with net income of $17.9 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2012. Second quarter 2013 earnings would have been $0.77 per diluted share excluding $4.8 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, of costs recorded in the quarter largely associated with the AirSep acquisition and flood damage in Europe, as well as a $0.02 per diluted share impact associated with Chart’s Convertible Notes (“Notes”) given Chart’s stock price performance.
The Notes have a dilutive effect on earnings per share when the average market price of the Company’s common stock exceeds the Notes’ conversion price of $69.03. Upon conversion, our hedge on the Notes protects against dilution up to $84.96 per share, but until conversion occurs, the hedge is considered anti-dilutive under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and cannot be taken into account when computing earnings per share. Chart’s average common stock price was $87.43 in the second quarter, resulting in the inclusion of an additional 864,168 shares related to the Notes in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the quarter. If the hedge had been able to be considered under GAAP it would have reduced the additional shares by 754,886.
Second quarter 2012 earnings would have been $0.57 per share excluding $1.1 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, of net favorable earn-out adjustments partially offset by impairment charges and the write-off of deferred financing fees associated with the credit facility amendment in the prior year quarter.
Net sales for the second quarter of 2013 increased 24% to $298.3 million from $239.9 million in the comparable period a year ago. Gross profit for the second quarter of 2013 was $89.8 million, or 30.1% of sales, versus $74.1 million, or 30.9% of sales, in the comparable quarter of 2012.
“LNG and petrochemical opportunities around the globe are driving our business. LNG growth in China continues to lead the record quarterly orders in our Distribution and Storage (“D&S”) business, with LNG related orders in both North America and Europe also contributing to the strong performance and record backlog,” stated Sam Thomas, Chart’s Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer. “Orders in our Energy and Chemicals (“E&C”) business included equipment for an ethylene plant and the Noble Energy award announced today for an LNG production plant using Chart’s standard LNG plant design for small-scale liquefaction, which continues to highlight the opportunities we see in natural gas.”
Mr. Thomas continued, “The latest award for LNG equipment from PetroChina announced today is in excess of $50 million and will be included in third quarter 2013 orders and backlog. This is the third major award from PetroChina in the last several quarters and recognizes Chart as a leading international supplier due to our quality and product capabilities. We remain encouraged by LNG opportunities in all our markets.”
Backlog at June 30, 2013 was $664.0 million, a new record and up 13% from the March 31, 2013 level of $586.6 million. Orders for the second quarter of 2013 were $369.7 million and do not include the latest PetroChina award announced today, which will be reflected in third quarter 2013 orders and backlog.
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses for the second quarter of 2013 increased $17.2 million compared with the same period in 2012 to $51.9 million, or 17.4% of sales. The additional costs are primarily due to the AirSep acquisition, commissions due to the higher sales level, and employee-related costs as we pursue LNG-related growth opportunities. In addition, the prior year quarter included $4.4 million in favorable net earn-out adjustments associated with prior acquisitions, reducing that quarter’s SG&A expense.
Interest expense was $4.0 million for the second quarter of 2013, which included $2.4 million of non-cash accretion expense associated with the Company’s Notes. Therefore, cash interest was $1.6 million.
Income tax expense was $8.0 million for the second quarter of 2013 and represented an effective tax rate of 27.9%. The rate was lower in the current quarter due to the mix of foreign earnings being taxed at lower rates and the recognition of foreign tax loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets given our recent strong operating performance in China.
Cash and short-term investments were $125.8 million at June 30, 2013, compared with $126.3 million at March 31, 2013. On July 1, 2013, the $250 million in Notes became convertible given Chart’s stock price performance. Since the Notes are currently convertible if holders elect to convert, the long-term debt component of the Notes was classified as a current liability and the equity component was classified as temporary equity in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. There have been no conversions to date.
SEGMENT HIGHLIGHTS
E&C segment sales increased 2.1% to $78.7 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared with $77.1 million for the same quarter in the prior year. E&C gross profit margin was 29.0% compared with 30.2% a year ago. Gross margins were lower due to project mix with the large base-load LNG projects accounting for a larger share of the mix. Margins were favorably impacted by approximately 2% due to recovery of project scope changes which negatively impacted margins in the first quarter of 2013 as well as several emergency short lead time opportunities in the current quarter.
D&S segment sales increased 29.7% to $147.2 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared with $113.4 million for the same quarter in the prior year. The increase was led by substantial growth in sales of LNG equipment. D&S gross profit margin was 28.4% in the quarter compared with 27.2% a year ago. Gross margins improved due to product mix and higher volume. Margins were negatively impacted by approximately 1% due to extensive flooding in Central Europe in early June that damaged inventory at our Czech Republic operations. The impact represents our insurance deductible; any losses in excess of the deductible are expected to be covered by insurance.
BioMedical segment sales increased 46.6% to $72.4 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared with $49.4 million for the same quarter in the prior year. This increase is due to the AirSep acquisition, completed during the third quarter of 2012, partially offset by continued weakness in the European market and uncertainty related to implementation of Medicare competitive awards in the United States this year. BioMedical gross profit margin decreased to 34.7% in the quarter compared with 40.4% for the same period in 2012. AirSep acquisition related costs, lower respiratory volume, and product mix contributed to the decline.
OUTLOOK
Based on year to date results, current order backlog, and business expectations, the Company is reaffirming its previously announced sales guidance, but tightening the range of its earnings guidance. Sales for 2013 are still expected to be in a range of $1.2 to $1.3 billion, but diluted earnings per share are now expected to be in a range of $3.10 to $3.40 per diluted share, on approximately 30.6 million weighted average shares outstanding. This excludes the impact of $0.15 per diluted share in anticipated AirSep acquisition costs and any dilution impact resulting from the Notes. This compares with previous earnings guidance of $3.00 to $3.40 per diluted share which excluded $0.10 per diluted share in anticipated AirSep acquisition costs and any dilution impact resulting from the Notes.
