ITT Reports Strong 2018 Third-Quarter Results

Nov 02, 2018 06:45 am
WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. -- 

ITT Inc. (NYSE: ITT) today reported 2018 third-quarter financial results that reflect strong top-line growth and the company’s continued focus on operational execution and strategies to win share in key global end markets. “For the third consecutive quarter, ITT delivered record results and double-digit growth across key metrics including adjusted segment operating income and adjusted EPS,” said CEO Denise Ramos. “This performance was driven by our intense focus on optimizing execution, which is reflected in solid operational progress at each of our three business segments, strong productivity gains that drove our record 15.7 percent adjusted segment operating income margin and a 30 percent increase in adjusted free cash flow reflecting a 100 percent conversion. Our results also reflect our ability to drive growth and market share gains in strategic global end markets as we delivered 5 percent or better organic revenue growth at each segment. Going forward, we’ll continue to focus on advancing operational excellence while building our momentum in target markets that will propel our future growth.”

Revenue and Orders

On a GAAP basis, the company delivered record third-quarter revenue of $681 million, reflecting a 6 percent increase, which included a 1 percent decline from foreign exchange. Organic revenue (defined as total revenue excluding foreign exchange, acquisition and divestiture impacts) increased 7 percent driven by strength across key end markets, including 6 percent in transportation, 8 percent in industrial, and 8 percent in oil and gas. Organic orders grew 11 percent led by a 74 percent increase in projects driven by increased chemical, petrochemical, and general industrial activity, a 33 percent increase in connectors, and 6 percent growth in Friction on OEM strength in North America and China and aftermarket growth in Europe.

Segment Operating Income

GAAP segment operating income increased 33 percent to $108 million on segment margins of 15.9 percent with strong results at each business segment. Adjusted segment operating income increased 17 percent to $107 million on adjusted segment operating margins of 15.7 percent, an improvement of 150 basis points. The growth reflects volume leverage at each segment, solid operating productivity and supply chain actions, partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange and commodity cost impacts. In addition, GAAP segment operating income was favorably impacted by lower restructuring, realignment, and acquisition-related costs.

Earnings Per Share

GAAP EPS increased 28 percent to $1.25. Adjusted EPS increased 24 percent to $0.82, reflecting the growth in adjusted segment operating income and favorable impacts from a lower tax rate, partially offset by higher corporate costs, primarily related to incentive compensation. GAAP EPS benefited from a $38 million gain on sale of a former Connector operating location, favorable tax adjustments, and lower restructuring, realignment, and acquisition-related costs, partially offset by a lower annual net asbestos re-measurement benefit.

Guidance

The company is narrowing the range of its previously announced 2018 full-year total revenue guidance to a new range of up 6 percent to up 7 percent reflecting stronger share gains offset by increased foreign exchange pressures and is narrowing the range and raising the mid-point of its organic revenue guidance to a new range of up 4 percent to up 5 percent primarily due to share gains and strong year-to-date order growth.

The company is also raising the mid-point of its previously announced 2018 full-year adjusted EPS guidance by 4 cents to $3.14, which represents a 21 percent increase compared to the prior year. The updated adjusted EPS guidance range of $3.13 to $3.15 reflects volume, price, and mix benefits as well as additional net operating productivity, partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency, material costs, and higher incentive compensation costs. The company is also raising and tightening its previously announced 2018 full-year GAAP EPS guidance to a new range of $3.69 to $3.75.

2018 Third-Quarter Business Segment Results

All quarterly results are compared with the respective prior-year period.

Motion Technologies

  • Total revenue increased 3 percent to $310 million, which includes an organic revenue increase of 5 percent and a 2 percent unfavorable impact from foreign exchange. The revenue growth was driven by a 7 percent increase in Friction on share gains in automotive OEM brake pads in North America and China, and aftermarket growth in Europe. KONI sales grew 3 percent on strength in high-speed rail and the aftermarket that was partially offset by a prior year defense program. This growth was partially offset by an anticipated decline in Wolverine from a sealing platform transition timing.
  • GAAP operating income increased 19 percent to $59 million, and adjusted segment operating income increased 8 percent to $57 million. Both increases reflect higher sales volume, an improved aftermarket mix, and strong operating and supply chain productivity, partially offset by unfavorable contractual pricing, higher commodity costs, and $4 million in strategic investments in global growth and Smart Pad technologies. In addition, GAAP operating income was favorably impacted by lower acquisition-related impacts.

Industrial Process

  • Total revenue increased 4.5 percent to $205 million, and organic revenue increased 6 percent, reflecting 11 percent growth in projects on strong petrochemical and oil and gas activity and 4 percent growth in short-cycle activity due to chemical and bio-pharmaceutical valve demand, partially offset by a 1 percent decline in baseline pumps due to timing.
  • GAAP operating income increased 66 percent to $24 million, and adjusted operating income increased 35 percent to $24 million, reflecting benefits from higher volumes, favorable short-cycle product mix, operating productivity, continued project performance improvements, and price partially offset higher material costs. In addition, GAAP operating income was favorably impacted by lower restructuring costs.

Connect and Control Technologies

  • Total and organic revenue increased 11 percent to $166 million, reflecting 13 percent growth in aerospace led by commercial aerospace connectors and components, and rotorcraft, 75 percent growth in oil and gas connectors on strength in all regions, and 6 percent growth in general industrial on strength in electric vehicle connectors.
  • GAAP operating income increased 44 percent to $26 million and adjusted segment operating income increased 25 percent to $27 million. Both measures reflect benefits from higher volumes, improved productivity gains in Connector operations, and restructuring benefits driven by the CCT integration, partially offset by increased material costs and increased investments in rotorcraft. In addition, GAAP operating income was favorably impacted by lower restructuring and realignment costs.

Annual Asbestos Re-measurement

The company recognized an $18 million pre-tax net benefit in the third quarter reflecting the annual re-measurement of its asbestos liability and related insurance assets, and an insurance settlement-in-principle. This benefit more than offset the quarterly provision and both were recognized as special items and excluded from adjusted results. During 2018, the company has driven strategies that reduced the net liability by 10 percent. The company also forecasts no change in the net annual average after-tax cash flow projections compared to the prior projection.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures

Management reviews a variety of key performance indicators including revenue, segment operating income and margins, earnings per share, order growth, adjusted free cash flow and backlog, some of which are non-GAAP. In addition, we consider certain measures to be useful to management and investors when evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented. These measures provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations and management of assets from period to period. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives, including, but not limited to, acquisitions, dividends and share repurchases.

These metrics, however, are not measures of financial performance under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered a substitute for measures determined in accordance with GAAP. We consider the following non-GAAP measures, which may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, to be key performance indicators for purposes of our reconciliation tables.

Organic Revenue and Organic Orders are defined as revenue and orders, excluding the impacts of foreign currency fluctuations, acquisitions and divestitures. Divestitures include sales of portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for presentation as a discontinued operation. The period-over-period change resulting from foreign currency fluctuations is estimated using a fixed exchange rate for both the current and prior periods. Management believes that reporting organic revenue and organic orders provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying trends in our business and facilitating easier comparisons of our revenue performance with prior and future periods and to our peers.

Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Segment Operating Income and Adjusted Segment Operating Margin are defined as total operating income and segment operating income, adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, asbestos-related costs, restructuring costs, realignment costs, certain asset impairment charges, certain acquisition-related expenses, and other unusual or infrequent operating items. Special items represent significant charges or credits that impact the current results, which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. Adjusted segment operating margin is defined as adjusted segment operating income divided by total revenue. We believe that these measures are useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating ongoing operating profitability, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors.

Adjusted Income from Continuing Operations, Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EPS Guidance are defined as income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. and income from continuing operations attributable to ITT Inc. per diluted share, adjusted to exclude special items that include, but are not limited to, asbestos-related costs, restructuring costs, realignment costs, pension settlement and other curtailment costs, certain asset impairment charges, certain acquisition-related expenses, income tax settlements or adjustments, and other unusual and infrequent non-operating items.

Special items represent significant charges or credits, on an after-tax basis, that impact current results, which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. The after-tax basis of each special item is determined using the jurisdictional tax rate of where the expense or benefit occurred. We believe that adjusted income from continuing operations is useful to investors and other users of our financial statements in evaluating ongoing operating profitability, as well as in evaluating operating performance in relation to our competitors.

Adjusted Free Cash Flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, adjusted for cash payments for restructuring costs, realignment actions, net asbestos cash flows and other significant items that impact current results which management views as unrelated to the Company's ongoing operations and performance. Due to other financial obligations and commitments, including asbestos, the entire free cash flow may not be available for discretionary purposes. We believe that adjusted free cash flow provides useful information to investors as it provides insight into the primary cash flow metric used by management to monitor and evaluate cash flows generated by our operations.
