Gardner Denver Reports Second Quarter 2019 Results

Gardner Denver Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: GDI) announced today second quarter 2019 results.

Second quarter revenues of $629 million were down 6% compared to the prior year and down 3% excluding the impact of FX. Net income in the quarter was $45 million, or $0.21 per share based on diluted share count of 209 million, compared to prior year net income of $60 million, or $0.29 per share based on diluted share count of 210 million. Adjusted net income decreased 3% to $90 million, or $0.43 per share, compared to $92 million, or $0.44 per share, in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA was $148 million, down 9% compared to the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenues decreased 70 basis points to 23.5% as compared to 24.2% in the prior year. Second quarter net debt to Adjusted EBITDA leverage remained at 2.0x, consistent with the level from the first quarter of 2019.

Business Trends

“The second quarter was a solid quarter of execution as the teams remain focused on our simple four-point strategy and utilizing the principles of the Gardner Denver Execution Excellence process (“GDX”) to drive results,” said Vicente Reynal, Chief Executive Officer. “The market continues to experience macro-economic noise including a downturn in the upstream Energy market, FX, tariffs and industrial market concerns. Despite these headwinds, both our Industrials and Medical segments drove positive growth and triple digit basis point margin expansion for the third consecutive quarter.”

“Our Industrials segment continues to deliver solid commercial performance with Americas and Europe generating positive FX-adjusted orders growth offset by negative performance in Asia Pacific due to the timing of a large Runtech order placed in the previous year. The segment continues to benefit from growth in niche products, such as oil-free compressors and blowers, as well as strong margin and EBITDA performance due to operational efficiency initiatives, such as Innovate-to-Value (“i2V”),” continued Reynal. “In the Energy segment, the upstream market continues to experience a challenging environment. Lower global demand for oil and gas, coupled with limited market visibility, is creating a slowdown in demand for both original equipment and associated aftermarket parts and services. Given current trends and short term market visibility, we expect the operating environment in the second half of this year to be comparable to what we experienced in the second quarter. As a result, we are expecting upstream energy revenues to be down approximately 30% for the total year, and while margin performance should continue to be healthy, we are actively taking prudent cost actions to ensure solid profitability. The mid and downstream businesses experienced low single digit FX-adjusted revenue declines that were expected given the strong double digit growth seen in the first quarter. However, both orders and revenue sequentially improved from the first quarter and book-to-bill was in excess of 1.0 as we see an active and growing funnel for projects. In the Medical segment, continued penetration of the gas and liquid pump markets with new innovation led to double digit FX-adjusted revenue growth and 260 basis points of Adjusted EBITDA margin expansion. We are excited by the recently announced acquisition of Oina, which brings differentiated technology in the peristaltic pump market to the portfolio, and will benefit from the Medical team’s established global commercial and operational footprint.”

“From a balance sheet perspective, I continue to be pleased with our working capital management and overall cash generation progress,” added Reynal. “Working capital as a percent of sales remained relatively flat to prior year despite the slowdown in upstream Energy and our free cash flow conversion was in excess of 100% as the teams continue to show a strong capital allocation discipline.”

Second quarter 2019 performance:

Industrials

  • Orders of $323 million, down 4% compared to the prior year, and flat excluding the impact of FX
  • Revenues of $334 million, up 2% compared to the prior year, and up 5% excluding the impact of FX
  • Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $77 million, up 8% from $71 million in the prior year
  • Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin of 22.9%, up 130 basis points from 21.6% in the prior year, driven by the impacts of growth, targeted cost actions and operational excellence initiatives

Energy

  • Orders of $207 million, down 32% compared to the prior year, and down 30% excluding the impact of FX
    • Upstream Energy orders of $98 million, down 35% compared to the prior year
  • Revenues of $223 million, down 18% compared to the prior year, and down 17% excluding the impact of FX
    • Upstream Energy revenues of $120 million, down 26% compared to the prior year
  • Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $56 million, down 29% from $80 million in the prior year
  • Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin of 25.3%, down 390 basis points from 29.2% in the prior year, driven largely by the declines in the upstream business

Medical

  • Orders of $76 million, up 5% compared to the prior year, and up 9% excluding the impact of FX
  • Revenues of $72 million, up 8% compared to the prior year, and up 12% excluding the impact of FX
  • Segment Adjusted EBITDA of $21 million, up 19% from $18 million in the prior year
  • Segment Adjusted EBITDA margin of 29.7%, up 260 basis points from the prior year, driven primarily by strong organic volume growth and operational efficiencies

2019 Guidance and Outlook

“Given the revised expectations for upstream Energy, we are updating our full year 2019 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to a range of $610 million to $630 million,” stated Reynal. “The revised guidance range does not change any of our prior expectations for the remainder of the businesses and we continue to expect free cash flow conversion to be in excess of 100% for the balance of the year.”

“With regards to the pending transaction with Ingersoll Rand’s Industrial segment, the teams continue to make solid progress in meeting the early 2020 closing timeline. The US antitrust waiting period expired in late June with no further inquiries and the international process is currently underway. In addition, the teams are making strong progress on integration planning and I feel confident in our ability to deliver the $250 million target for cost synergies.”

Non-U.S. GAAP Measures of Financial Performance

In addition to consolidated GAAP financial measures, Gardner Denver reviews various non-GAAP financial measures, including “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted Net Income,” “Adjusted Diluted EPS” and “Free Cash Flow.”

Gardner Denver believes Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted EPS are helpful supplemental measures to assist management and investors in evaluating the Company’s operating results as they exclude certain items that are unusual in nature or whose fluctuation from period to period do not necessarily correspond to changes in the operations of Gardner Denver’s business. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain non-cash, non-recurring and other adjustment items. Adjusted Net Income is defined as net income including interest, depreciation and amortization of non-acquisition related intangible assets and excluding other items used to calculate Adjusted EBITDA and further adjusted for the tax effect of these exclusions. Gardner Denver believes that the adjustments applied in presenting Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income are appropriate to provide additional information to investors about certain material non-cash items and about non-recurring items that the Company does not expect to continue at the same level in the future. Adjusted Diluted EPS is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by Adjusted Diluted Average Shares Outstanding.

Gardner Denver uses Free Cash Flow to review the liquidity of its operations. Gardner Denver measures Free Cash Flow as cash flows from operating activities less capital expenditures. Gardner Denver believes Free Cash Flow is a useful supplemental financial measure for management and investors in assessing the Company’s ability to pursue business opportunities and investments and to service its debt. Free Cash Flow is not a measure of our liquidity under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities.

Management and Gardner Denver’s board of directors regularly use these measures as tools in evaluating the Company’s operating and financial performance and in establishing discretionary annual compensation. Such measures are provided in addition to, and should not be considered to be a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable measures under GAAP. In addition, Gardner Denver believes that Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow are frequently used by investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of issuers, many of which also present Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow when reporting their results in an effort to facilitate an understanding of their operating and financial results and liquidity.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow should not be considered as alternatives to net income, diluted earnings per share or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP, or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider such measures either in isolation or as substitutes for analyzing Gardner Denver’s results as reported under GAAP.

Reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS and Free Cash Flow to their most comparable U.S. GAAP financial metrics for historical periods are presented in the tables below.

Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures related to full year 2019 guidance have not been provided due to the unreasonable efforts it would take to provide such reconciliations.
