NEW ALBANY, Ohio, Nov. 5, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Commercial Vehicle Group, Inc. (the "Company") CVGI today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2018.
Third Quarter | |||
($ in millions except EPS) | 2018 | 2017 | |
Revenues | $225.0 | $198.3 | |
Operating Income | $16.5 | $10.7 | |
Net Income | $12.6 | $4.8 | |
Basic EPS | $0.42 | $0.16 | |
Diluted EPS | $0.41 | $0.16 | |
Patrick Miller, President and CEO, stated, "We've successfully increased production to meet considerably higher market demand which has driven revenues and earnings up significantly. Compared to the same period last year, revenues are up 13 percent and our Global Truck and Bus Segment is up 20 percent. North American heavy-duty truck orders are at a record breaking pace contributing to a historically high order backlog. This backlog is a good indicator that truck production in 2019 should be even higher than 2018, barring unexpected market shocks. We believe this backlog, combined with our growing wire harness business, will result in higher 2019 revenues."
Tim Trenary, Chief Financial Officer, stated, "Operating income of $16.5 million for the third quarter is over fifty percent higher than the same period last year, operating income margin of 7.3 percent is almost 200 bps higher and net income of $12.6 million is more than twice as much as last year. This improvement in net income is a reflection of our improved operating results and an unusually low tax provision, which includes $2.9 million of tax benefit to adjust the provisional tax expense arising from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. Free cash flow has improved and investment in working capital is moderating - the Company's cash position at quarter end increased to $58 million. Net leverage is now 1.4 times trailing twelve months EBITDA, half as much as it was a year ago. It was a good quarter notwithstanding supply chain, material and labor cost headwinds."
Consolidated Results
Third Quarter 2018 Results
- Third quarter 2018 revenues were $225.0 million compared to $198.3 million in the prior year period, an increase of 13.5 percent. The increase in revenues period-over-period reflects higher heavy-duty truck production in North America and continued strength in the global construction markets we serve. Foreign currency translation adversely impacted third quarter 2018 revenues by $1.0 million, or by 0.5 percent when compared to the same period in the prior year.
- Operating income for the third quarter 2018 was $16.5 million compared to operating income of $10.7 million in the prior year period. The increase in operating income period-over-period is primarily attributable to the increase in sales volume. Commodity and other material inflationary pressures, as well as difficult labor markets, adversely affected operating income. However, cost control and cost recovery initiatives, including pricing adjustments, reduced the impact of these cost pressures on operating income. Third quarter of 2017 results include costs of approximately $2.0 million arising from a labor shortage in our North American wire harness business and $0.4 million in charges relating to facility restructuring and other related costs.
- Net income was $12.6 million for the third quarter 2018, or $0.41 per diluted share, compared to net income of $4.8 million in the prior year period, or $0.16 per diluted share. A tax benefit of $2.9 million was recorded in the third quarter of 2018 to adjust the $4.0 million provisional tax expense on the deemed repatriation of accumulated untaxed foreign subsidiary earnings (pursuant to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017) recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017.
At September 30, 2018, the Company had liquidity of $121 million: $58 million of cash and $63 million of availability from our asset based revolver. There were no borrowings under our asset based revolver at September 30, 2018.
Segment Results
Global Truck and Bus Segment
Third Quarter 2018 Results
- Revenues for the Global Truck and Bus Segment in the third quarter 2018 were $146.4 million compared to $122.0 million for the prior year period, an increase of 20.0 percent primarily resulting from higher North American heavy-duty truck production. Foreign currency translation adversely impacted third quarter 2018 revenue by $0.3 million, or by 0.3 percent when compared to the same period in the prior year.
- Operating income for the third quarter 2018 was $14.9 million compared to operating income of $11.4 million in the prior year period. The increase in operating income period-over-period is primarily attributable to the increase in sales volume and cost control and cost recovery initiatives, including pricing adjustments, to reduce the impact of commodity and other material inflationary pressures, and difficult labor markets. The completion of facility restructuring in late 2017 also benefited operating income. Third quarter 2017 results include $0.4 million of cost associated with restructuring initiatives.
Global Construction and Agriculture Segment
Third Quarter 2018 Results
- Revenues for the Global Construction and Agriculture Segment in the third quarter 2018 were $82.8 million compared to $79.6 million in the prior year period, an increase of 4.0 percent. Foreign currency translation adversely impacted third quarter 2018 revenues by $0.7 million, or by 0.9 percent when compared to the same period in the prior year.
- Operating income for the third quarter 2018 was $7.6 million compared to operating income of $4.1 million in the prior year period. Operating income benefitted from cost control and cost recovery initiatives, including pricing adjustments, to reduce the impact of commodity and other material inflationary pressures, and difficult labor markets. Third quarter of 2017 results include costs of approximately $2.0 million arising from a labor shortage in our North American wire harness business.
2018 End Market Outlook
Management estimates that 2018 North American Class 8 truck production will be in the range of 315,000 to 325,000 units, as compared to 256,000 units in 2017; North American Class 5-7 production is expected to be up slightly year-over-year. We believe that construction equipment production in the markets we serve in Europe, Asia, and North America remains strong.
