BERWYN, Pa., April 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- AMETEK, Inc. AME today announced its financial results for the three month period ended March 31, 2016.
AMETEK's first quarter 2016 sales of $944.4 million were down 4% over the same period of 2015. Operating income was down 12% to $208.5 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.57 were down 10% from the first quarter 2015 adjusted results. Operating margins were 22.1% in the quarter.
"As expected, demand remained weak in the quarter," said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Frank S. Hermance. "Ongoing softness in oil and gas, metals and global industrial markets continues to drive meaningful headwinds. Despite these challenges, we were able to deliver solid first quarter earnings in-line with our expectations."
First quarter 2015 results exclude realignment costs of $15.9 million, or approximately $0.04 per diluted share. A comparison of first quarter 2016 results to last year's reported GAAP and adjusted results is included with the financial tables accompanying the release. All further references to 2015 results are on an adjusted basis.
Electronic Instruments Group (EIG)
For the first quarter of 2016, EIG sales decreased 4% to $569.0 million. Operating income was $141.8 million, down 12% versus the first quarter 2015, and operating margins were 24.9% in the quarter.
"Overall sales in our Power & Industrial businesses were up approximately 10% driven by the contributions from the acquisitions of Brookfield Engineering Laboratories and ESP/SurgeX during the quarter. However, this strong growth was more than offset by lower sales in our Process business driven by weakness in our oil and gas businesses," adds Mr. Hermance.
Electromechanical Group (EMG)
In the first quarter, EMG sales decreased 4% to $375.4 million. Operating income in the quarter was $79.4 million, down 10% from last year's first quarter, and operating margins were 21.2% in the quarter.
"The lower sales versus last year were largely driven by the impacts from commodity price deflation across our Engineered Materials, Interconnects and Packaging businesses. We expect these end market conditions to sequentially improve during 2016 with a stronger second half than first half," notes Mr. Hermance.
2016 Outlook
"We have an excellent portfolio of differentiated businesses. We are confident in our ability to successfully execute on our growth strategies in order to capitalize on the tremendous opportunity we have to grow and expand these businesses. However, we are faced with the reality of a number of challenging end markets, which will continue to impact us in 2016," notes Mr. Hermance.
"We expect 2016 sales to be roughly flat versus last year with earnings expected to be in the range of $2.42 to $2.52 per diluted share, down 1% to 5% versus 2015 adjusted results," adds Mr. Hermance.
"Second quarter 2016 sales are expected to be down low single digits compared to last year's second quarter. We estimate our earnings in the second quarter to be approximately $0.58 to $0.59 per diluted share, down 8% to 9% over last year's second quarter," concludes Mr. Hermance.
