Expectations for 2016
Based upon preliminary, unaudited financial information, the Company currently expects its 2016 net sales, operating profit and free cash flow, as compared to previously announced guidance, to be as follows:
| Current | Previous | |||||
| 2016 Expectations | 2016 Guidance | |||||
| $ millions | ||||||
| Net sales | $345.7 - $346.7 | $345.0 - $355.0 | ||||
| Operating profit (1) | $13.5 - $14.5 | $18.0 - $21.0 | ||||
| Free cash flow | $3.0 - $4.0 | $10.0 - $15.0 |
(1) Excludes the impact of a goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge of $28.4 million in the Engineering Services segment recognized in the second quarter of 2016.
Expected results for 2016 were negatively impacted by lower sales primarily due to customer delays; unanticipated engineering changes on a design-build contract; and higher-than-expected medical costs.
These preliminary, unaudited results are based on management's initial review of operations for 2016 and are subject to completion of the company's customary closing procedures, including the year-end audit process.
LMI expects to release fourth quarter and full-year results for 2016 in March 2017.
