DANBURY, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 28, 2015--Praxair, Inc.
(NYSE:PX) reported fourth-quarter net income and diluted earnings per
share of $302 million and $1.03, respectively. These results include
charges to net income related to Venezuela currency devaluation, a bond
redemption and a pension settlement. Excluding these items, adjusted net
income and diluted earnings per share were $460 million and $1.57,
respectively.*
Sales in the fourth quarter were $2,990 million, 3% above the prior-year
quarter excluding negative currency translation effects. Organic sales
growth was driven by increased volumes, including volume growth from new
plant start-ups, and higher price across the Americas and Asia.
Reported operating profit in the fourth quarter was $525 million.
Adjusted operating profit of $663 million was steady with the prior-year
quarter, excluding currency translation effects. Adjusted operating
profit as a percentage of sales remained strong at 22.2%.*
Fourth-quarter cash flow from operations of $772 million funded $482
million of capital expenditures. The company paid $189 million of
dividends and repurchased $282 million of stock, net of issuances.
For the full year of 2014, reported net income was $1,694 million and
diluted earnings per share was $5.73. On an adjusted basis, full-year
net income was $1,852 million and diluted earnings per share was $6.27,
5% and 6% above the prior year, respectively.*
Full-year sales were $12,273, 6% above 2013 excluding negative currency
translation. Growth was driven by higher volumes, pricing and
acquisitions. Reported operating profit was $2,608 million. Adjusted
operating profit of $2,746 million was 6% above 2013, excluding negative
currency translation.*
For the full year, cash flow from operations was strong at $2,868
million, 23% of sales. After capital expenditures of $1,689 million,
free cash flow was a record $1,179 million. The company invested $206
million in acquisitions, including several U.S. packaged gas
distributors. The company paid dividends of $759 million and repurchased
$759 million of stock, net of issuances. The debt-to-capital ratio was
59.6% and debt-to-adjusted EBITDA was 2.3x. After-tax return on capital
and return on equity for the year were 12.7% and 28.7%, respectively.*
Commenting on the financial results and business outlook, Chairman,
President and Chief Executive Officer Steve Angel said, “Praxair’s
operational and capital discipline again yielded high-quality results in
2014, despite a challenging global environment. We generated strong
operating cash flow of $2.9 billion that represented 23% of sales and
record free cash flow of $1.2 billion. Operating and EBITDA margins grew
to new highs.
“Sales growth of 6% and EPS growth of 9%, ex-currency, reflect strong
price attainment across all of our businesses, relentless cost control
and volume growth in the Americas and Asia. The acquisitions that we
executed during the year were consistent with our strategy of improving
geographic density in our core gases business.
“Looking forward to 2015, we expect modest global growth. More than half
of our sales are generated in North America and with our
industry-leading presence we will continue to take advantage of the
underlying economic strengths of the region. While we continue to see
slowing macro-economic trends in the rest of the world, our diverse
end-markets and strong local teams will continue to drive resilient
operating results and increasing cash flow. We are committed to
high-quality growth and expect continued strong cash flow generation to
fund new projects, increased dividends and ongoing share repurchases.”
For full-year 2015, Praxair expects sales in the range of $12 billion to
$12.4 billion. This sales guidance assumes a negative currency impact of
about 6% versus 2014. The company expects diluted earnings per share to
be in the range of $6.15 to $6.50, up 5% to 11% ex-currency from 2014.*
Full-year capital expenditures are expected to be about $1.7 billion and
the effective tax rate is forecasted to remain at about 28%.
For the first quarter of 2015, Praxair expects diluted earnings per
share in the range of $1.39 to $1.47. This EPS guidance assumes a
negative currency impact of approximately 7% year-over-year and 4%
sequentially.
Following is additional detail on fourth-quarter 2014 results by segment.
In North America, fourth-quarter sales were $1,589 million, up 3% from
the prior-year quarter excluding currency translation. Organic sales
growth of 2% was driven by higher pricing and growth in merchant and
packaged gas volumes. Acquisitions of U.S. packaged gas distributors
contributed 1% growth. Operating profit of $388 million grew 2% from the
prior year, excluding negative currency translation, primarily due to
higher volumes, higher price and acquisitions.
In Europe, fourth-quarter sales were $356 million, 12% below the
prior-year quarter. Excluding currency, cost pass-through and net
divestitures, organic sales were 1% below prior year due primarily to
weaker sales in Northern Europe. Operating profit was $63 million.
In South America, fourth-quarter sales were $473 million, 2% below the
prior-year quarter. Organic sales, excluding negative currency
translation, grew 8% primarily from growth to food and beverage and
healthcare end-markets. Operating profit was $105 million, above the
prior-year quarter excluding currency translation, due primarily to
volume growth and higher pricing.
Sales in Asia were $407 million in the quarter, 6% above the prior year
excluding currency and cost pass-through, driven by volume growth in
on-site, including new plant start-ups, and merchant. Operating profit
was $77 million as compared to $80 million in the prior year.
Praxair Surface Technologies had fourth-quarter sales of $165 million as
compared to $164 million in the prior-year quarter. Organic sales grew
1% due to favorable pricing. Overall volumes were comparable to the
prior-year period. Operating profit was $30 million as compared to $27
million in the prior year.

dollar.

interests, or $0.08 per diluted share) related to the realignment of
Praxair's Italian legal structure, both recorded during the fourth
quarter; (ii) a charge of $9 million ($6 million after-tax, or $0.02
per diluted share) related to pension settlement in the third

The following non-GAAP measures are intended to supplement
investors’ understanding of the company’s financial information by
providing measures which investors, financial analysts and
management use to help evaluate the company’s financial leverage,
return on capital and operating performance. Items which the company
does not believe to be indicative of on-going business trends are
excluded from these calculations so that investors can better
evaluate and analyze historical and future business trends on a
consistent basis. Definitions of these non-GAAP measures may not be
comparable to similar definitions used by other companies and are
not a substitute for similar GAAP measures. Adjusted amounts exclude
the impacts of the 2014 fourth quarter pension settlement, bond
redemption and loss on Venezuela currency devaluation, 2013 fourth
quarter bond redemption and the income tax benefit related to the
realignment of Praxair's Italian legal structure, the 2013 third
quarter pension settlement, the 2013 first quarter loss on Venezuela
currency devaluation, and the 2012 third quarter cost reduction
program, pension settlement charge, and an income tax benefit.
