Vice President Finance and Corporate Controller |
– | Fourth quarter earnings per diluted share (EPS) of $0.83; adjusted EPS of $0.87 |
– | Strong improvement in operating leverage consistent with our expectations |
– | Price realization in the quarter continued to outpace raw material cost inflation |
– | End markets remain strong; quarterly sales growth of 14 percent and organic sales growth of 10 percent |
– | Fiscal 2018 EPS of $2.42; adjusted EPS of $2.65 at the top end of outlook |
– | Full year net cash flow from operating activities of $277 million; free operating cash flow (FOCF) of $121 million |
– | Fiscal 2019 outlook for adjusted EPS of $2.90 to $3.20 and FOCF of $120 million to $140 million |
– | Tariffs not currently expected to have a material effect on our sales projections or cost structure |
• | Sales were $646 million compared with $565 million in the same quarter last year. Sales increased by 14 percent, driven by 10 percent organic growth, 3 percent favorable currency exchange impact and a 1 percent increase due to more business days. Sales grew in all segments, end markets and regions. |
• | Total pre-tax restructuring and related charges were $6 million, or $0.07 per share, and incremental pre-tax benefits from restructuring initiatives compared to the prior year quarter were approximately $4 million. The charges are net of a $5 million gain from the sale of the Houston manufacturing facility, which was previously closed as part of our legacy restructuring programs. In association with our simplification initiative, the company recorded $8 million of restructuring and related charges in the Industrial segment. Annualized run-rate pre-tax savings of approximately $10 million are expected to be achieved in the first half of fiscal 2019 in connection with this initiative. |
• | Operating income was $98 million, compared with $40 million in the same quarter last year. Adjusted operating income was $103 million, compared with $63 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in adjusted operating income was driven by organic sales growth, favorable mix, favorable currency exchange and incremental restructuring and modernization benefits, partially offset by higher raw material costs, higher variable compensation expense due to higher than expected operating results and more overtime costs. Price realization continued to outpace raw material cost inflation. Operating margin was 15.1 percent compared to 7.1 percent in the prior quarter. Adjusted operating margin was 16.0 percent in the current period compared to 11.2 percent in the prior quarter. |
• | The reported effective tax rate (ETR) was 21.1 percent and the adjusted ETR was 22.1 percent. The difference between reported and adjusted ETRs is driven primarily by a discrete benefit of $2 million, or $0.03 per share, to record adjustments to the provisional toll tax associated with U.S. tax reform, partially offset by restructuring and related charges. For the prior year quarter, the reported ETR was 22.6 percent and the adjusted ETR was 16.8 percent. The change in the adjusted ETR year-over-year is primarily due to U.S. income in the prior year quarter not being tax-effected and current quarter U.S. income being tax-effected now that a valuation allowance is no longer recorded on U.S. deferred tax assets. |
• | EPS was $0.83, compared with $0.30 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EPS was $0.87 in the current quarter and $0.56 in the prior year quarter. |
• | Net income attributable to Kennametal was $69 million compared with $25 million in the prior year quarter. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) was $122 million, compared with $66 million in the prior year quarter. Adjusted EBITDA was $128 million in the current quarter and $89 million in the prior year quarter. |
• | In June 2018, the company further enhanced liquidity and strengthened its financial position by issuing $300 million of 4.625 percent Senior Unsecured Notes due 2028. Net proceeds were used for redemption of our previously outstanding $400 million of 2.650 percent Senior Unsecured Notes due 2019 in July 2018. |
• | The company entered into an amendment to the five-year, multi-currency, revolving credit facility. The amendment extends the tenor for a new five-year term to June 2023 and expands borrowing capacity from $600 million to $700 million. The prior facility was scheduled to mature in April 2021. The new facility has lower LIBOR borrowing margins and enhanced commercial terms. |
• | Industrial sales of $349 million increased 16 percent from $300 million in the prior year quarter due to organic sales growth of 11 percent, favorable currency exchange of 4 percent and a 1 percent increase due to more business days. |
• | Industrial operating income was $56 million compared to $21 million in the prior year period. Adjusted operating income was $65 million compared to $36 million in the prior year quarter, driven primarily by organic sales growth, favorable mix, favorable currency exchange and incremental restructuring benefits, partially offset by decreased manufacturing efficiency in part due to modernization efforts in progress and higher variable compensation expense due to higher than expected operating results. Industrial operating margin was 16.1 percent compared to 6.9 percent in the prior year quarter. Industrial adjusted operating margin was 18.5 percent compared to 11.9 percent in the prior year. |
• | Widia sales of $53 million increased 12 percent from $47 million in the prior year quarter, driven by organic growth of 9 percent, favorable currency exchange of 2 percent and a 1 percent increase due to more business days. |
• | Widia operating income was $2 million, compared to operating loss of $2 million in the prior year. Adjusted operating income was $2 million, compared with break-even adjusted operating results in the prior year quarter, primarily driven by organic sales growth, partially offset by unfavorable mix. Widia operating income margin was 3.5 percent compared to operating loss margin of 3.8 percent in the prior year quarter. Widia adjusted operating margin was 4.0 percent, compared to break even adjusted operating results in the prior year. |
• | Infrastructure sales of $244 million increased 12 percent from $217 million in the prior year due to 9 percent organic sales growth, favorable currency exchange of 2 percent and a 1 percent increase due to more business days. |
• | Infrastructure operating income was $40 million compared to $18 million in the prior year period. Adjusted operating income was $38 million compared to $24 million in the prior year quarter, driven primarily by organic sales growth, favorable mix and incremental restructuring and modernization benefits, partially offset by higher raw material costs and higher variable compensation expense due to higher than expected operating results. Infrastructure operating margin was 16.6 percent compared to 8.1 percent in the prior year quarter. Infrastructure adjusted operating margin was 15.4 percent compared to 11.0 percent in the prior year. |
• | Sales were $2,368 million, compared with $2,058 million last year. Sales increased by 15 percent, driven by organic sales growth of 12 percent and favorable currency exchange of 4 percent, partially offset by a 1 percent decrease due to fewer business days. |
• | Combined restructuring programs delivered full fiscal 2018 year-over-year incremental savings of approximately $55 million. |
• | Operating income was $308 million, compared with $113 million in the prior year. Adjusted operating income was $323 million, compared with $189 million in the prior year. Adjusted operating income increased primarily due to organic sales growth, incremental restructuring benefits, favorable mix and currency exchange and modernization benefits, partially offset by higher raw material costs, salary inflation and higher variable compensation expense due to higher than expected operating results. Operating margin was 13.0 percent in the current year compared to 5.5 percent in the prior year. Adjusted operating margin was 13.7 percent in the current year compared to 9.2 percent in the prior year. |
• | EPS were $2.42 in the current year and $0.61 in the prior year. Adjusted EPS were $2.65 in the current year and $1.52 in the prior year. |
• | Year-to-date net cash flow from operating activities was $277 million compared to $195 million in the prior year period. The company generated year-to-date free operating cash flow of $121 million compared with $82 million in the prior year. The increase in free operating cash flow was driven primarily by higher cash from operations before changes in certain other assets and liabilities and lower restructuring payments, offset partially by higher working capital and net capital expenditures. |
