Barnes Group Inc. (NYSE: B), an international industrial and aerospace manufacturer and service provider, today reported financial results for the third quarter 2014. Net sales of $317.7 million were up 18% from $269.5 million in the third quarter of 2013, driven by the sales contribution from the acquired Männer business and strong organic sales growth of 8%. Income from continuing operations for the third quarter was $34.3 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, compared to $21.4 million, or $0.39 per diluted share in the prior year period. In the third quarter of 2013, income from continuing operations included an $8.6 million pre-tax inventory valuation charge related to exchange engine parts within the Aerospace repair and overhaul business. On an adjusted basis, income from continuing operations was $0.64 per diluted share, up 64% from $0.39 a year ago. Third quarter 2014 adjusted diluted earnings from continuing operations exclude the impact of Männer short-term purchase accounting adjustments of $0.9 million pre-tax, or $0.01 per diluted share, and costs related to the close of production operations at Associated Spring’s Saline, Michigan facility which were $0.5 million pre-tax, or $0.01 per diluted share.
A table reconciling 2013 and 2014 non-GAAP adjusted results presented in this release to our GAAP results is included at the end of this press release.
“Barnes Group produced an excellent quarter of financial performance driven by continued margin expansion and strong revenue growth,” said Patrick J. Dempsey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Barnes Group Inc. “Our Industrial and Aerospace Segments each delivered high-single digit organic growth and orders in the quarter were solid which supports an improved outlook for 2014 and positive momentum heading into 2015,” added Dempsey.
Industrial
- Third quarter 2014 sales were $207.2 million, up 24% from $167.7 million in the same period last year. The Männer business, acquired in October 2013, provided $29.6 million of the sales increase while unfavorable foreign exchange negatively impacted sales by $1.8 million. Industrial’s organic sales grew 7% over the prior year period.
- Operating profit of $33.2 million in the third quarter was up 59% from $20.9 million in the prior year period. Operating profit benefited from the contribution of Männer and higher organic sales, and was partially offset by $0.9 million of pre-tax Männer short-term purchase accounting adjustments and $0.5 million of pre-tax restructuring charges related to the closure of production operations at the Saline, Michigan facility. Excluding the acquisition related expenses and Saline closure costs, adjusted operating profit was $34.6 million, up 66%. Adjusted operating margin was 16.7%, up 430 bps from last year’s operating margin of 12.4%.
Aerospace
- Third quarter 2014 sales were $110.4 million, up 9% from $101.7 million in the same period last year. Increased sales from original equipment manufacturing ("OEM") business were partially offset by lower sales in the aftermarket repair and overhaul ("MRO") business. Aerospace spare part sales were flat on a year-over-year basis.
- Operating profit was $17.7 million for the third quarter of 2014 as compared to $7.2 million for the prior year period. Operating profit benefited from the contributions of increased sales in the OEM business, higher profits in the MRO business and the absence of the $8.6 million inventory valuation charge taken in last year’s third quarter. These benefits were partially offset by increased employee related costs. Operating margin was 16.0% in the quarter, compared to 7.0% a year ago.
- Aerospace backlog was $511 million at the end of the third quarter, down 3% from the second quarter of 2014.
Additional Information
-
The Company's effective tax rate from continuing operations for the
third quarter of 2014 was 28.1% compared with 15.8% in the third
quarter of 2013 and 32.8% for the full year 2013. Included in the full
year 2013 income tax is a charge of approximately $16 million
associated with the April 2013 U.S. Tax Court’s unfavorable decision.
Excluding this charge, the full year 2013 adjusted effective tax rate
was 17.5%. The effective tax rate increase in 2014 over the adjusted
full year 2013 rate is due to a projected mix of earnings attributable
to higher-taxing jurisdictions, the expiration of certain tax
holidays, and the increase in planned repatriation of a portion of
current foreign earnings to the U.S.
2014 Updated Outlook
Barnes Group now expects 2014 total revenue to grow 15% to 16%, 5% to 6% on an organic basis, and forecasts adjusted operating margins of approximately 15.5%. GAAP earnings from continuing operations are expected to be in the range of $2.10 to $2.15 per diluted share. Excluding Männer short-term purchase accounting adjustments and the Saline closure costs, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations are anticipated to be in the range of $2.30 to $2.35, up 26% to 28% from 2013’s adjusted diluted earnings per share of $1.83. Further, the Company continues to expect capital expenditures of approximately $60 million and cash conversion to be approximately 100% of net income.

Notes:
(1) The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. The Company believes that the free cash flow metric is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by business operations that can be used to invest in future growth, pay dividends, repurchase stock and reduce debt. This metric can also be used to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on the Company's liquidity.
(2) For the purpose of calculating the cash conversion ratio, the Company has excluded the income tax payments related to the gain on the sale of BDNA made during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 from free cash flow and the gain on the sale of BDNA and the tax charge associated with the April 2013 tax court decision from net income.

Notes:
(1) The Company has excluded the following from its "as adjusted" financial measurements: 1) short-term purchase accounting adjustments related to its Männer acquisition in 2014, 2) restructuring charges related to the closure of production operations at the Company's Associated Spring facility located in Saline, Michigan in 2014, 3) short-term purchase accounting adjustments and transaction costs related to its Männer acquisition in 2013, 4) CEO transition costs associated with the modification of outstanding equity awards in 2013 and 5) the tax charge associated with the April 2013 tax court decision in 2013. Management believes that these adjustments provide the Company and its investors with an indication of our baseline performance excluding items that are not considered to be reflective of our ongoing results. Management does not intend results excluding the adjustments to represent results as defined by GAAP, and the reader should not consider it as an alternative measurement calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's performance. Accordingly, the measurements have limitations depending on their use.
