EnPro Industries to Provide for FX Driven Loss on Euro-Denominated Engine Contract; Excluding the Provision, First Quarter Operating Income is in Line with First Quarter of 2014

CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

EnPro Industries, Inc. NPO announced today that its first quarter 2015 results will include a loss provision of $6.2 million as a result of the effect of foreign exchange rates on Fairbanks Morse Engine's (FME) euro-denominated contract with Electricite de France (EDF). Under the multi-year contract, signed in May 2014 and valued at €89.2 million, FME will provide engines for backup power for EDF's French nuclear power facilities.

Excluding the $6.2 million loss provision, EnPro's first quarter operating income is expected to be $17.6 million, compared to $17.4 million for the first quarter of 2014. Including the loss provision, EnPro's first quarter operating income is expected to be $11.4 million. Excluding the loss provision, EnPro's Power Systems segment (which is composed of FME) is expected to report segment profit of $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2015, compared to $3.3 million in the first quarter of 2014. Including the loss provision, Power Systems' first quarter 2015 segment profit is expected to be $0.6 million. The loss provision on the EDF contract was not included in the Company's previously provided guidance for 2015.

Since the contract was signed, the U.S. dollar has strengthened significantly against the euro, resulting in total U.S. dollar equivalent revenues, calculated at the exchange rate in effect at the end of the first quarter, falling below total projected U.S. dollar costs for the EDF contract. This evaluation is based upon the 2015 quarter-end U.S. dollar to euro exchange rate of $1.10. At the time the contract was signed, the exchange rate was $1.36. The evaluation of the impact of exchange rates on the contract will be updated on a quarterly basis for the duration of the contract.

FME's total euro-denominated sales and purchasing volumes, including the EDF contract, other engine programs and aftermarket parts are approximately balanced. At current exchange rates, the Company expects to benefit in the future from parts sourced in euros for other engine sales contracts and aftermarket parts that are denominated in U.S. dollars. However, pursuant to applicable accounting guidelines, each contract must be accounted for separately, and a loss on one contract cannot be offset against the future benefits to be realized on other contracts, even if driven by a common factor, in this case foreign exchange rates.

EnPro's full results for the first quarter of 2015 will be communicated in the Earnings Release and conference call scheduled for April 30, and in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to be filed on or about May 6, 2015.
