Carlisle Reports First Quarter 2017 Results

•
Record First Quarter Net Sales of $857.3 million, an increase of 8.0% versus prior year
•
First Quarter Earnings per Share from Continuing Operations of $0.94, including $0.10 of restructuring, facility rationalization and acquired inventory costs

SCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA, April 27, 2017 - Carlisle Companies Incorporated (NYSE:CSL) reported net sales of $857.3 million for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017, an 8.0% increase from $794.0 million in the first quarter of 2016. Net sales from acquisitions contributed a total of 4.9% to net sales in the first quarter of 2017. Organic net sales (defined as net sales excluding both sales from acquisitions within the last twelve months and the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates versus the U.S. Dollar) grew 3.7%. Fluctuations from foreign exchange had a negative impact to net sales of 0.6%.

Income from continuing operations in the first quarter 2017 declined 10% to $61.5 million, compared with $68.5 million in the first quarter 2016, due to unfavorable operating performance in the Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CIT) segment, approximately $3.8 million of after-tax charges primarily for the previously announced facility rationalization and plant restructuring projects at CIT and the Carlisle Brake & Friction (CBF) segment, and $2.5 million of after-tax acquired inventory costs. Partially offsetting the year-over-year earnings decline were higher net sales volume in the Construction Materials (CCM) segment and savings from the Carlisle Operating System (COS). The Company’s effective tax rate in the first quarter 2017 was 31.7%, versus an effective rate of 33.0% in the prior year driven by a tax benefit tied to the adoption of a new accounting standard. On a per share basis, income from continuing operations in the first quarter 2017 decreased 10% to $0.94 per diluted share, from $1.05 per diluted share in the prior year.

Comment

D. Christian “Chris” Koch, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased with the record sales performance in the first quarter led by outstanding results at CCM. Through solid execution, CCM was able to achieve sales growth in excess of the low single digit non-residential roofing market growth rates while driving continued margin expansion. The acquisition of San Jamar in the Carlisle FoodService Products (CFS) segment announced earlier this year performed as expected in the quarter with the integration progressing very well and the team delivering excellent operating performance. CIT experienced challenges in the commercial aerospace market during Q1. These challenges were specifically due to the acceleration of in-sourcing by a large commercial aerospace customer of in-flight entertainment and connectivity (IFEC) products. Accompanying the negative impact of the in-sourcing action was the timing of sales due to a technology shift from traditional seatback IFEC products to CIT’s new satellite connectivity (SatCom ARINC 791) products. We expect sales volumes related to this issue to gradually improve as we move through 2017 and as our very strong SatCom order pipeline is shipped to customers. CIT remains very well-positioned to capitalize on future growth in the commercial aerospace market with our new products and our recent acquisition of Star Aviation.




“We successfully deployed approximately $226 million of cash in the quarter to acquire San Jamar and Arbo, and returned $22.7 million in cash to shareholders through our quarterly dividend. We increased our credit facility in the quarter and now have $1.0 billion of availability. Coupled with our expected strong operating cash flow, we expect to have ample liquidity to make further investments in our businesses and continue to return capital to our shareholders through a consistent dividend and our share buyback program.

“Carlisle Construction Materials (CCM) achieved net sales of $446.1 million, a 10.5% increase over prior year, and EBIT margin of 18.1% in the first quarter of 2017. The net sales and EBIT margin performance represent first quarter records for CCM. Higher sales volume was led by low-teens growth experienced in the U.S. non-residential roofing markets. EBIT growth of 11.6% was driven by higher net sales volume and COS savings, partially offset by unfavorable price and raw material cost dynamics, and $0.5 million of pre-tax acquired inventory costs related to the Arbo acquisition.

“The outlook for the U.S. non-residential roofing market remains positive. For full year 2017, we are increasing CCM’s outlook to mid-to-high single digit net sales growth rates. CCM remains committed to maintaining price discipline in their markets.
 
“Carlisle Interconnect Technologies (CIT) net sales in the first quarter 2017 declined 1.3% versus prior year reflecting acquisition growth of 7.9%, and an organic net sales decline of 8.9%. Fluctuations from foreign exchange had a negative impact to net sales of 0.3%. The organic net sales decrease was due to the aforementioned in-sourcing initiatives by a large commercial aerospace customer and timing of the IFEC to SatCom product shift. CIT’s EBIT fell 39% primarily related to the aforementioned sales volume reductions and $4.3 million of pre-tax facility rationalization and plant restructuring costs related to efforts focused on improving operational efficiencies throughout the business. We expect to generate substantial savings beginning in 2018 from these operational efficiency improvement efforts.

“Our 2017 net sales outlook for CIT is for growth in the mid-single digit range reflecting our price discipline on legacy IFEC products and the corresponding impact of the customer in-sourcing initiative. We are optimistic that our growing backlog and increasing ramp-up of SatCom product sales will contribute to sales growth in the latter half of the year.

“Carlisle FoodService Products (CFS) achieved net sales of $83.3 million, a 38% increase over prior year reflecting acquisition growth of 32%, and an organic net sales increase of 5.9%. EBIT decreased 18% to $5.8 million, including $3.4 million of pre-tax acquired inventory costs related to the San Jamar acquisition. CFS recorded its seventh consecutive quarter of year-over-year organic sales growth. CFS organic sales represents a quarterly record for this segment, with growth driven by janitorial/sanitation products and healthcare equipment.
 
“The integration of the San Jamar acquisition is progressing very well. San Jamar expands our position in several hygienic, food management, and safety product categories. The rollout of the Carlisle Operating System has been positively embraced by San Jamar employees who have already identified and implemented various continuous improvement opportunities.

“CFS continues to remain focused on the execution of its strategies of operational excellence, sales growth, and the successful integration of San Jamar. We expect CFS to achieve low-to-mid single digit organic net sales growth for the full year 2017.

“Carlisle Fluid Technologies (CFT) net sales in the quarter declined 1.1% versus prior year reflecting acquisition growth of 2.2%, and an organic net sales decline of 0.5%. Fluctuations from foreign exchange had a negative impact to net sales of 2.8%. Sales volumes decreased in Asia Pacific primarily due to the timing of system sales. Offsetting these sales declines was strength experienced in EMEA driven by growth in the automotive refinishing market and a full quarter of sales from last year’s acquisition of MS Powder. First quarter 2017 EBIT decreased 29% primarily due to lower sales volume and as previously communicated, ongoing investments to position the business for future growth and margin improvement.

“The outlook across CFT’s largest global end markets remain positive, and our expectations for net sales growth are in the mid-single digit percent range.

“Carlisle Brake and Friction (CBF) net sales increased 1.7% in the quarter reflecting an organic net sales increase of 3.6% and a negative impact to net sales from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates of 1.9%. CBF experienced sales growth for the first time since the third quarter of 2014, with increases in key end markets, including mining, which has not seen growth since 2012. EBIT declined 68% as a result of unfavorable product mix, higher raw material costs, and expenses related to the previously announced closure of the Tulsa, OK manufacturing facility.





“Our outlook for 2017 is cautious optimism that we have reached the bottom of the cycle in our key markets. We now expect CBF net sales to be slightly positive for 2017.”

Koch concluded by stating, “For the full year, we continue to plan for total net sales growth to be in the high-single digit percent range. We expect capital expenditures will be approximately $125 to $150 million as investments identified for expansion at CCM, CIT, and CFT move forward, and the additional cost reduction improvements at CBF related to their footprint rationalization efforts are rolled out. We are committed to using our cash on hand and available liquidity to maximize shareholder value by acquiring companies that fit our long-term growth and margin profiles as well as returning capital to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases.”

Cash Flow

Cash flow provided from operations of $31.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was $77.1 million lower than cash provided of $109.0 million for the prior year period primarily due to lower net income and an increase in cash usage for working capital to support the organic sales growth.

Free cash flow (defined as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, and comprised of continuing and discontinued operations) was $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2017, a decrease of $88.8 million versus the prior year. The decrease in free cash flow was primarily attributable to lower net income, a greater usage of cash for working capital, and higher capital expenditures versus the prior year. For the full year, we expect free cash flow conversion to be approximately 100%.

Net cash used in investing activities of $256.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 included $225.8 million used primarily for the acquisitions of San Jamar and Arbo, net of cash acquired.

As of March 31, 2017, we had $134.0 million cash on hand and $1.0 billion of availability under our revolving credit facility.
