Raises Full Year 2009 Cash Flow Outlook
Limerick, PA —Teleflex Incorporated (NYSE: TFX) today announced financial results for the Third Quarter ended September 27, 2009.
Third Quarter Financial Highlights
Revenues from continuing operations were $461.5 million compared to $504.0 million in the third quarter of 2008, down 8%. This decline resulted from a decrease in core revenue of 6% and an unfavorable currency impact of 2%. Core revenue was down 1% in the Medical Segment and 23% and 16% in the Aerospace and Commercial Segments, respectively.
Income from continuing operations excluding special items increased 12% to $35.2 million, or $0.88 per diluted share compared to $31.4 million or $0.78 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. The third quarter of 2009 included a pre-tax non-cash charge of $3.3 million, $0.05 per diluted share after tax, related to an impairment of an investment in an affiliate. Income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders including special items increased to $34.7 million or $0.87 per diluted share compared to $29.4 million or $0.74 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. A complete reconciliation of the results for the comparable periods including the special items is provided in the table below.
Income from discontinued operations attributable to common shareholders was $3.6 million, or $0.09 per diluted share compared to $12.9 million or $0.32 per diluted share in the prior year quarter. Net income attributable to common shareholders in the third quarter of 2009 was $38.3 million and diluted earnings per share available to common shareholders were $0.96 compared to $42.3 million and $1.06 per diluted share in the prior year quarter.
Cash flow from continuing operations increased 88% in the third quarter of 2009 to $103.5 million, up from $55.1 million in the prior year quarter.

“During the quarter Teleflex generated double digit adjusted earnings growth, improved our working capital as evidenced by our strong cash flow performance, and progressed on our capital structure,” said Jeffrey P. Black, chairman and chief executive officer. Added Black, “We achieved core revenue growth in our higher-margin, critical care product offerings and continued to expand our Medical Segment adjusted operating margins.” Stated Black, “We also expect the sequential operating profit improvements reported in our Aerospace and Commercial businesses to continue in the fourth quarter. In light of these factors, we now expect our 2009 earnings per share excluding special items to be at the top end of our previously announced guidance of $3.40 to $3.60 per diluted share.”
Third Quarter Business Segment Commentary
Medical Segment
Medical Segment revenues were $355.9 million for the third quarter, including core revenue increases in vascular access, urology, anesthesia, respiratory and cardiac products. These increases were more than offset by declines in surgical and orthopedic devices sold to medical OEM’s, resulting in an overall core revenue decline of 1% compared to the prior year quarter. Foreign currency translation negatively impacted revenues by 2%.
Medical Segment sales by product group were comprised of the following:

* Certain reclassifications within product categories have been made to 2008 results to conform with current year presentation.
Adjusted segment operating profit, which excludes the impact of certain integration costs not qualified for restructuring, increased to $74.5 million from $73.4 million in the prior year. The improvement resulted from lower operating expenses, reduced FDA remediation spending, and synergies from the Arrow integration activities offset by reduced volume and the effect of the stronger U.S. dollar compared with the prior year quarter. Adjusted segment operating margins in the quarter improved 90 basis points to 20.9% versus 20.0% in the prior year quarter. A reconciliation of adjusted segment operating profit and margins are noted in the table below.
Aerospace Segment
Aerospace Segment revenues declined 26% in the third quarter of 2009 to $45.8 million from $62.1 million in the same period last year. Higher sales of wide and narrow-body cargo handling systems to OEM’s were more than offset by lower cargo systems sales for aftermarket conversions, lower cargo spares, components and repairs sales, and lower demand for cargo containers and actuators due to the current weakness in the commercial aviation sector, all of which contributed to the 23% decline in core revenue during the quarter. An unfavorable currency impact of 3% also contributed to the decline.
2
Segment operating profit decreased in the third quarter of 2009 to $4.6 million from $7.3 million in the same period last year. This was principally due to the lower sales volumes across all product lines noted above, including an unfavorable mix of lower margin systems sales compared with higher margin spares and repairs, that was partially offset by cost reduction initiatives. Segment operating margin for the quarter was 9.9% versus 11.8% in the prior year quarter.
Commercial Segment
Commercial Segment revenues declined 20% in the third quarter of 2009 to $59.8 million from $74.6 million in the same period last year. Reductions in core revenue, which accounted for 16% of the decline, were principally a result of a decrease in sales of rigging and Marine OEM products partially offset by sales of the modern burner unit to the U.S. military. The impact of the Marine gauge business divestiture contributed 4% to the decline.
During the third quarter of 2009 operating profit in the Commercial Segment declined to $4.6 million from $4.9 million in the prior year period, principally due to the lower sales volumes, which more than offset the impact from the elimination of approximately $3 million of operating costs compared to the prior year quarter. Segment operating margin for the quarter improved to 7.8% versus 6.5% in the prior year quarter.
Power Systems Transaction
During the third quarter of 2009, the Company completed the sale of its Power Systems business for $14.5 million and realized a loss of $3.3 million, net of tax. During the second quarter, the Company recognized a non-cash goodwill impairment charge of $25.1 million to adjust the carrying value of these operations to their estimated fair value. Beginning in the third quarter of 2009, the results of the Company’s Power Systems operations have been classified as discontinued operations and, as such, have been excluded from the Company’s results from continuing operations for all periods presented.
Nine Month Results
For the first nine months of 2009, Teleflex revenues from continuing operations decreased 12% to $1,375.1 million from $1,569.5 million in the first nine months of 2008. Income from continuing operations excluding special items increased 12% to $105.1 million or $2.63 per diluted share, compared to $94.0 million or $2.36 per diluted share in the prior year. Income from continuing operations attributable to common shareholders including special items increased to $93.8 million or $2.35 per diluted share compared to $77.3 million or $1.94 per diluted share in the prior year.
Income from discontinued operations attributable to common shareholders was $166.5 million or $4.17 per diluted share compared to $22.9 million or $0.58 per diluted share in the prior year. 2009 results from discontinued operations include a gain, net of tax, of approximately $178 million or $4.46 per diluted share from the sale of Airfoil Technologies International – Singapore Pte. Ltd. (“ATI”).
Net income attributable to common shareholders for the first nine months of 2009 was $260.3 million and diluted earnings per share available to common shareholders were $6.52 compared to $100.2 million and $2.52 per diluted share in the prior year period, respectively.
Cash flow from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2009 totaled $178.8 million, excluding a tax payment of approximately $97.5 million related to the gain on sale of ATI. Excluding tax payments of $90.2 million related to the divestiture of the automotive and industrial businesses, cash flow from continuing operations for the first nine months of 2008 was $138.4 million.

Business Outlook for 2009
The Company now expects its full year 2009 income from continuing operations excluding special items to be at the top end of its previously announced guidance range of $3.40 to $3.60 per diluted share. Special items for 2009 are expected to be in the range of $0.30 to $0.35 per diluted share. This compares to the company’s previous guidance of special items which were expected to be in the range of $0.37 to $0.42. Core revenue growth in the Medical segment is expected to be flat for the full year. The Company expects cash flow from continuing operations for the full year to be approximately $220 to $230 million, exclusive of the tax payment related to the gain on the sale of ATI. This compares to the company’s previous adjusted cash flow from continuing operations guidance of $210 to $220 million.
Third Quarter Conference Call Webcast and Additional Information
As previously announced, Teleflex will comment on its third quarter results on a conference call to be held Tuesday, October 27, 2009, at 9:00 a.m. (ET). The call will be available live and archived on the company’s website atwww.teleflex.com and accompanying presentations will be posted prior to the call. An audio replay will be available until November 3, 2009 by calling 888-286-8010 (U.S./Canada) or 617-801-6888 (International), Passcode: 97984342.
Additional Notes
Core growth includes activity of a purchased company beyond the initial twelve months after the date of acquisition. Core growth excludes the impact of translating the results of international subsidiaries at different currency exchange rates from year to year, and the activity of companies that have been divested within the most recent twelve month period.
Certain financial information is presented on a rounded basis, which may cause minor differences.
Segment operating profit includes a segment’s net revenues reduced by its materials, labor and other product costs along with the segment’s selling, engineering and administrative expenses and non-controlling interest. Unallocated corporate expenses, gains or losses on sales of assets, restructuring and impairment charges, interest income and expense and taxes on income are excluded from the measure.
Segment commentary excludes the impact of discontinued operations, items included in restructuring and impairment charges, losses and other charges, and fair market value adjustments for inventory as disclosed in the condensed consolidated statements of income.
Notes on Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release addresses certain non-GAAP income and cash flow measures. We use these financial measures for internal managerial purposes, when publicly providing guidance on possible future results, and to assist in our evaluation of period-to-period comparisons. These financial measures are presented in addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be relied upon as a substitute for GAAP financial measures.
This press release includes financial measures which exclude the effect of charges associated with our restructuring programs and asset impairments, charges related to the Arrow acquisition, (gain)/loss on sale of assets and other charges, tax adjustments, and income tax payments related to gains on business divestitures. Management believes these measures are useful to investors because they eliminate items that do not reflect Teleflex’s day-to-day operations. Tables reconciling these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are set forth below.
