Crane Co. (NYSE: CR), a diversified manufacturer of highly engineered
industrial products, reported fourth quarter 2012 earnings from
continuing operations of $0.79 per share, compared to a net loss of
$2.18 per share in the fourth quarter of 2011. Fourth quarter 2012
results included after-tax charges of $4 million, or $0.07 per share,
associated with previously announced repositioning actions, as well as
transaction-related costs of $4 million, or $0.07 per share, related to
the recently announced acquisition of MEI Conlux Holdings. Fourth
quarter 2011 results included an after-tax asbestos provision of $157
million and an after-tax environmental provision of $20 million
(totaling $3.05 per share). Excluding these Special Items, fourth
quarter 2012 and 2011 earnings per diluted share from continuing
operations were $0.92 and $0.86, respectively. The Company noted that
adjusted fourth quarter 2012 earnings of $0.92 did not include a
previously anticipated $0.05 per share benefit associated with the
reinstatement of the R&D tax credit in the United States, as the
legislation was not enacted until early January 2013. (Please see the
attached Non-GAAP Financial Measures table for pretax, after-tax and
earnings per share amounts of Special Items.)
Fourth quarter 2012 sales from continuing operations of $630 million
increased $10 million, or 1.6%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2011,
resulting entirely from core sales growth. Operating profit from
continuing operations in the fourth quarter of 2012 was $76.2 million
compared to an operating loss of $194.0 million in the fourth quarter of
2011. Excluding Special Items, fourth quarter 2012 operating profit from
continuing operations increased 8.5% to $84.6 million compared to $78.0
million in the fourth quarter of 2011, and operating profit margin
increased to 13.4%, compared to 12.6% in the fourth quarter of 2011.
(Please see the attached Non-GAAP Financial Measures table.)
Full Year 2012 Results
Total sales from continuing operations in 2012 were $2.58 billion, an
increase of 3.1% from $2.5 billion in 2011, resulting from a core sales
increase of $105 million (4.2%) and an increase from acquisitions of $12
million (0.5%), partially offset by unfavorable foreign currency
translation of $38 million (1.6%).
Operating profit from continuing operations for the full year 2012 was
$310.4 million compared to $36.6 million in 2011. Excluding Special
Items, 2012 operating profit from continuing operations increased 9% to
$334.9 million, compared to $308.5 million in 2011, and operating profit
margin increased to 13.0%, compared to 12.3% in 2011.
Full year 2012 earnings per diluted share were $3.72, compared to $0.44
per share in 2011. Excluding Special Items, 2012 earnings per diluted
share increased 9% to $3.75, compared to $3.43 per share in 2011. Full
year 2012 results did not include the previously anticipated $0.05 per
share benefit associated with the reinstatement of the R&D tax credit
(Please see the attached Non-GAAP Financial Measures table.) Order
backlog was $749 million at December 31, 2012 compared to $778 million
at December 31, 2011.
“We are pleased to report record full year EPS of $3.75, excluding
Special Items, which is in line with our most recent guidance,” said
Crane Co. chief executive officer, Eric C. Fast. “Our adjusted, full
year operating margin was 13%, a substantial improvement over 12.3% in
2011. In 2013, we are expecting our third consecutive year of record
earnings, with continued operating margin expansion and strong free cash
flow. Our 2013 forecast does not include the recently announced
acquisition of MEI which, in combination with Crane Payment Solutions,
establishes a third large growth platform for Crane.”
Cash Flow and Financial Position
Cash provided by operating activities in the fourth quarter of 2012 was
$155.5 million, compared to $84.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2011,
including the effect of a $30 million discretionary pension contribution
made in December 2011. Free cash flow (cash provided by operating
activities less capital spending) for the fourth quarter of 2012 was
$146.1 million, compared to $77.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.
For the full year 2012, cash provided by operating activities was $234.8
million compared to $149.8 million in 2011. Free cash flow for the full
year 2012 was $205.4 million, compared to $115.1 million in the prior
year. The Company repurchased 1,271,592 shares of its common stock
during 2012 at a cost of $50 million. The Company’s cash position was
$424 million at December 31, 2012, as compared to $245 million at
December 31, 2011. (Please see the Condensed Statement of Cash Flows and
Non-GAAP table.)
Repositioning Actions
In the second quarter of 2012, the Company initiated repositioning
actions relating to the transfer of certain manufacturing operations
from higher cost to lower cost Company facilities, principally in
response to weak European economic conditions. Following aggregate
pre-tax charges of $16.1 million through the third quarter, as planned,
the Company incurred additional pre-tax costs of $4.5 million, or $0.07
per share, during the fourth quarter (total pre-tax charges of $20.6
million, or $0.29 per share, during 2012). These repositioning actions,
which are substantially complete, are expected to generate $12 million
in savings in 2013, of which $10 million relates to Fluid Handling.
Segment Results
All comparisons detailed in this section refer to continuing operations
for the fourth quarter 2012 versus the fourth quarter 2011. The

Fourth quarter 2012 sales increased $4.1 million, or 2%, reflecting a
$3.1 million increase (3%) in Aerospace Group sales and an increase of
$1.0 million (2%) in Electronics Group revenue. The Aerospace sales
growth reflected higher OEM and aftermarket activity. Segment operating
profit increased by 1% and margins remained strong at 22.3%, driven by
the impact of the higher sales and lower engineering expense in the
Aerospace Group, partially offset by lower profits in the Electronics
Group.
Aerospace & Electronics order backlog was $378 million at December 31,
2012 compared to $393 million at September 30, 2012 and $411 million at
December 31, 2011.

management. Fluid Handling order backlog was $327 million at December
31, 2012, compared to $331 million at September 30, 2012 and $314

Fourth quarter 2012 sales of $20.8 million decreased 6% compared to the
fourth quarter of 2011, reflecting slightly weaker industrial demand.
Operating profit was flat, as deleverage on the lower sales was offset
by productivity gains.
Updated 2013 Guidance
The Company revised its preliminary 2013 guidance which was provided on
December 20, 2012. The updated guidance reflects lower pension expense
associated with the curtailment of the Company’s U.S. defined benefit
pension plan, as well as a slightly reduced outlook for 2013 core sales
growth of between 1% and 3% (excluding acquisition and foreign exchange
impacts). Earnings per share in 2013 are now estimated to be in a range
of $4.10 to $4.30, representing an increase of 11%-16% over 2012
earnings per diluted share of $3.70 (before Special Items and on a
continuing operations basis, which excludes profits from discontinued
operations of $0.05 per share in 2012). The 2013 guidance does not
include potential impacts from the pending acquisition of MEI. Excluding
inventory step-up and one-time transaction and integration costs, the
Company expects MEI to be accretive to earnings within the first year of
acquisition by approximately $.25 per share, including $.05 in
synergies. The Company expects 2013 free cash flow (cash provided by
operating activities less capital spending) to be in the range of $190 -
$220 million, including the effect of asbestos related cash flows.
Segment-specific sales and operating profit guidance will be provided at
the Company’s Investor Day conference on February 27, 2013.
Please see the Non-GAAP Financial Measures table attached to this press
release for supporting details. Additional information with respect to
the Company’s asbestos liability and related accounting provisions and
cash requirements is set forth in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed
with a copy of this press release.

Certain non-GAAP measures have been provided to facilitate
comparison with the prior year.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management
believes that non-GAAP financial measures which exclude certain
non-recurring items present additional useful comparisons between
current results and results in prior operating periods, providing
investors with a clearer view of the underlying trends of the
business. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in
making financial, operating, planning and compensation decisions and
in evaluating the Company's performance.
|
|
|
|
In addition, Free Cash Flow provides supplemental information to
assist management and investors in analyzing the Company’s ability
to generate liquidity from its operating activities. The measure of
Free Cash Flow does not take into consideration certain other
non-discretionary cash requirements such as, for example, mandatory
principal payments on the Company's long-term debt. Non-GAAP
financial measures, which may be inconsistent with similarly
captioned measures presented by other companies, should be viewed in
addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company’s reported
results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
|
|
|
|
Non-GAAP financial measures, which may be inconsistent with
similarly captioned measures presented by other companies, should be
viewed in the context of the definitions of the elements of such
measures we provide and in addition to, and not as a substitute for,
the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
