NORTH CANTON, Ohio, Oct. 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The Timken Company TKR www.timken.com))), a world leader in engineered bearings and power transmission products, today reported third-quarter 2019 sales of $914 million, up 3.7 percent from the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily driven by the benefit of acquisitions, partially offset by lower organic revenue mainly in Mobile Industries, and unfavorable foreign currency translation.

In the third quarter, Timken posted net income of $64.2 million or $0.84 per diluted share, versus net income of $71.6 million or $0.91 per diluted share for the same period a year ago. The year-over-year decrease was primarily driven by pension and other retirement plan remeasurement charges and higher income tax expense, partially offset by improved overall operating performance.

Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), adjusted net income in the third quarter of 2019 was $87.4 million or $1.14 per diluted share, a record for the third quarter, versus adjusted net income of $82.9 million or $1.06 per diluted share for the same period in 2018. The year-over-year increase was driven by favorable price/mix, lower material and logistics costs and the benefit of acquisitions, partially offset by the impact of lower volume and related manufacturing utilization, and higher interest expense.

Cash from operations for the quarter was $144.9 million, and free cash flow was $101.2 million. During the quarter, the company returned $53.7 million of capital to shareholders with the payment of its 389th consecutive quarterly dividend and the repurchase of approximately 750 thousand shares. Also, among recent developments, the company announced an agreement to acquire BEKA Lubrication, a leading global supplier of automatic lubrication systems, which will strengthen Timken's leadership position in this attractive product line.

"Timken delivered strong operating performance in the third quarter," said Richard G. Kyle, president and chief executive officer. "While several industrial markets were softer than anticipated, we delivered record earnings per share, strong operating margins and excellent cash flow. Delivering record results in this environment demonstrates that we are successfully executing our strategy. We continue to drive outgrowth in sectors such as renewable energy and rail, deliver revenue and earnings growth through our acquisitions, and take proactive measures to reduce costs and improve our operating efficiency. Our performance in the third quarter is a reflection of the stronger, more diverse Timken Company."

Third-Quarter 2019 Segment Results

Mobile Industries sales of $455.1 million decreased 2 percent compared with the same period a year ago. The decrease was driven primarily by lower shipments in off-highway and heavy truck, and unfavorable currency, partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions and growth in the rail sector.

Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) in the quarter were $52 million or 11.4 percent of sales, compared with EBIT of $50.6 million or 10.9 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The increase in EBIT reflects favorable price/mix, lower material and logistics costs and the benefit of acquisitions, partially offset by the impact of lower volume and related manufacturing utilization.

Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), adjusted EBIT in the quarter was $53.8 million or 11.8 percent of sales, compared with $52.5 million or 11.3 percent of sales in the third quarter last year.

Process Industries reported sales of $458.9 million, up 10 percent from the same period a year ago. The increase was driven primarily by the benefit of acquisitions and organic growth in the renewable energy and marine sectors, partially offset by lower revenue in industrial services and unfavorable currency.

EBIT for the quarter was $95.6 million or 20.8 percent of sales, compared with EBIT of $81.8 million or 19.6 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The increase in EBIT was driven primarily by favorable price/mix and the benefit of acquisitions, partially offset by lower volume.

Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), adjusted EBIT in the quarter was $98.3 million or 21.4 percent of sales, compared with $84 million or 20.1 percent of sales in the third quarter last year.

2019 Outlook

The company now expects 2019 revenue to be up approximately 5 to 6 percent in total versus 2018. This reflects the benefit of acquisitions, partially offset by unfavorable currency translation. Organic revenue is expected to be roughly flat overall.

"While we are taking a cautious view with respect to the fourth quarter, we remain confident in the long-term outlook for the company," said Kyle. "Our expected record performance in 2019 demonstrates our earnings power in a slowing industrial market environment, the enduring strength of our portfolio, and our ability to navigate and deliver through industrial cycles. We look forward to updating investors on our strategy and longer-term outlook at our upcoming investor day in December."

Timken now anticipates strong 2019 earnings per diluted share in the range of $4.15 to $4.20 for the full year on a GAAP basis. Excluding special items (detailed in the attached tables), the company expects record 2019 adjusted earnings per diluted share ranging from $4.70 to $4.75.

(1) Adjustments are pre-tax, with the net tax provision listed separately.















(2) Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges (including items recorded in cost of products sold) relate to: (i) plant closures; (ii) the rationalization of certain plants and (iii) severance related to cost reduction initiatives. The Company re-assesses its operating footprint and cost structure periodically, and makes adjustments as needed that result in restructuring charges.  However, management believes these actions are not representative of the Company's core operations. 















(3) Represents property loss and related expenses during the year (net of insurance proceeds) resulting from property loss that occurred during the first quarter of 2019 at one of the Company's warehouses in Knoxville, Tennessee and during the third quarter of 2019 at one of the Company's warehouses in Yantai, China.















(4) Acquisition-related charges in 2019 primarily related to the Rollon S.p.A. ("Rollon"), The Diamond Chain Company ("Diamond Chain"), and BEKA Lubrication ("BEKA") acquisitions, including transaction costs and inventory step-up impact.









(5) The Brazil legal matter represents expense recorded to establish a liability associated with an investigation into alleged antitrust violations in the bearing industry that was initiated in October 2014. Refer to the Contingencies footnote within the third quarter 2019 Form 10-Q for additional discussion.









(6) The gain on sale of real estate related to the sale of a manufacturing facility in Pulaski, Tennessee during the first quarter of 2019. This amount was recorded in other income.















(7) Corporate pension and other postretirement benefit related charges represent actuarial (gains) and losses that resulted from the remeasurement of plan assets and obligations as a result of changes in assumptions. The Company recognizes actuarial (gains) and losses in connection with the annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or if specific events trigger a remeasurement. Refer to the Retirement Benefit Plans and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans footnotes within the third quarter 2019 Form 10-Q for additional discussion.









(8) Loss on divestiture relates to the sale of the Groeneveld Information Technology Holding B.V. (the "ICT Business"), located in Gorinchem, Netherlands.















(9) Provision for income taxes includes the net tax impact on pre-tax adjustments (listed above), the impact of discrete tax items recorded during the respective periods, as well as other adjustments to reflect the use of one overall effective tax rate on adjusted pre-tax income in interim periods.

 

 
























Reconciliation of EBIT to GAAP Net Income, and EBIT and EBITDA Margin, After Adjustments, to Net Income as a Percentage of Sales, and EBIT and EBITDA, After Adjustments, to Net Income:

(Unaudited)










The following reconciliation is provided as additional relevant information about the Company's performance deemed useful to investors.  Management believes consolidated earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) is a non-GAAP measure that is useful to investors as it is representative of the Company's performance and that it is appropriate to compare GAAP net income to consolidated EBIT. Management also believes that non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBIT, adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBIT margin and adjusted EBITDA margin are useful to investors as they are representative of the Company's core operations and are used in the management of the business, including decisions concerning the allocation of resources and assessment of performance.

(1) Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges (including items recorded in cost of products sold) relate to: (i) plant closures; (ii) the rationalization of certain plants and (iii) severance related to cost reduction initiatives. The Company re-assesses its operating footprint and cost structure periodically, and makes adjustments as needed that result in restructuring charges.  However, management believes these actions are not representative of the Company's core operations.

(3) Acquisition-related charges in 2019 primarily related to the Rollon, Diamond Chain, and BEKA acquisitions, including transaction costs and inventory step-up impact.











(4) The Brazil legal matter represents expense recorded to establish a liability associated with an investigation into alleged antitrust violations in the bearing industry that was initiated in October 2014. Refer to the Contingencies footnote within the third quarter 2019 Form 10-Q for additional discussion.
