Rockwell Collins, Inc. COL today reported total sales for the first quarter of fiscal year 2015 of $1.23 billion, a 16% increase from the same period in fiscal year 2014. First quarter fiscal year 2015 earnings per share from continuing operations increased 29% to $1.26 compared to $0.98 in the prior year. Earnings per share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2015 included a benefit of 16 cents due to the retroactive extension of the Federal R&D tax credit. ARINC, which was acquired on December 23, 2013, and is included in the Information Management Services segment, contributed $137 million of sales and $20 million of operating earnings to the first quarter of fiscal year 2015.
"We're off to a great start on our fiscal 2015 plan," said Rockwell Collins Chief Executive Officer and President, Kelly Ortberg. "In the quarter we realized strong revenue growth in our Commercial Systems and Information Management Services businesses and a stabilization of revenues in our Government Systems business. With this return to top-line growth, we executed quite well and delivered improved margin performance. The results for the first quarter support our plan for double digit earnings per share and cash flow growth for fiscal year 2015."
Ortberg continued, "We also secured another pillar for our long-term growth plan with the significant market share gain on the Boeing 777X. This builds on our positions on the 737 MAX, 767/KC-46, and 787 aircraft with Boeing."
Following is a discussion of fiscal year 2015 first quarter sales and earnings for each business segment.
Commercial Systems
Commercial Systems, which provides aviation electronics systems, products and services to air transport, business and regional aircraft manufacturers and airlines worldwide, achieved 2015 first quarter results as summarized below.
| (dollars in millions) | Q1 FY15 | Q1 FY14 | Inc/(Dec) | |||||||||||
| Commercial Systems sales | ||||||||||||||
| Original equipment | $ | 331 | $ | 286 | 16 | % | ||||||||
| Aftermarket | 221 | 216 | 2 | % | ||||||||||
| Wide-body in-flight entertainment | 16 | 19 | (16 | )% | ||||||||||
| Total Commercial Systems sales | $ | 568 | $ | 521 | 9 | % | ||||||||
| Operating earnings | $ | 125 | $ | 111 | 13 | % | ||||||||
| Operating margin rate | 22.0 | % | 21.3 | % | 70 bps | |||||||||
- Original equipment sales increased due to higher OEM production rates, improved share of airline selectable equipment, and higher customer funded development program sales.
- Aftermarket sales increased primarily due to higher service and support revenues partially offset by the absence of a large delivery of spare parts for the Boeing 787 GoldCare program in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
- Operating margin increased due to incremental earnings on higher sales volume.
Government Systems
Government Systems provides a broad range of electronic products, systems and services to customers including the U.S. Department of Defense, other government agencies, civil agencies, defense contractors and ministries of defense around the world. Results from the first quarter of 2015 are summarized below.
| (dollars in millions) | Q1 FY15 | Q1 FY14 | Inc/(Dec) | |||||||||||

- Avionics sales increased due to higher hardware deliveries for tanker/transport programs.
- Communication product sales decreased due to lower deliveries of JTRS Manpack radios partially offset by higher ARC-210 hardware deliveries.
- Operating margin increased primarily from favorable mix partially offset by higher warranty expense due to favorable warranty adjustments recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
Information Management Services
Information Management Services (IMS) enables mission-critical data and voice communications throughout the world to customers including the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), commercial airlines, business aircraft operators, airport and critical infrastructure operators and major passenger and freight railroads. These communications are enabled by the Company's high-performance, high-quality and high-assurance proprietary radio and terrestrial networks, enhancing customer efficiency, safety and connectivity. Results from the first quarter of 2015 are summarized below.
| (dollars in millions) | Q1 FY15 | Q1 FY14 | ||||||||
| Information Management Services sales | $ | 149 | $ | 18 | ||||||
| Operating earnings | $ | 21 | $ | 2 | ||||||
| Operating margin rate | 14.1 | % | 11.1 | % | ||||||
Sales for ARINC, which was acquired on December 23, 2013, were $137 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 include $6 million for ARINC. All remaining sales in fiscal 2015 and 2014 are related to the Rockwell Collins legacy flight services business. IMS operating earnings include $14 million and $1 million of depreciation and amortization expense for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
On a pro forma basis, IMS sales increased 20% to $149 million. The increase was driven by double-digit sales growth in aviation related sales including GLOBALinkSM and ARINCDirectSM as well as higher rail related sales due to certain unfavorable contract adjustments recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
Corporate and Financial Highlights
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased from $12 million
in the first quarter of fiscal year 2014 to $15 million in the first
quarter of fiscal year 2015 due primarily to a full quarter of
incremental interest expense on debt issued to fund the ARINC
acquisition partially offset by $3 million of transaction costs related
to the acquisition of ARINC included in interest expense in the first
quarter of fiscal year 2014.
Income Taxes
The company's effective income tax rate was
22.5% for the first quarter of 2015 compared to a rate of 27.2% for the
same period last year. The lower effective income tax rate in the first
quarter of 2015 was due to the retroactive extension of the Federal R&D
Tax Credit partially offset by the recognition of a tax benefit in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2014 related to prior years'
Extraterritorial Income Exclusion deductions.
Cash Flow
Cash used by operating activities was $60 million
for the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, compared to cash used by
operating activities of $24 million in the first quarter of fiscal year
2014. The increase in cash used for operating activities was due
primarily to the timing of receivable collections partially offset by a
full quarter of cash flows from ARINC, higher earnings, and lower tax
payments.
During the first quarter of 2015, the company repurchased 2.2 million shares of common stock at a total cost of $174 million. The company also paid a dividend on its common stock of 30 cents per share, or $40 million, in the first quarter of 2015.
