ITW Reports First-Quarter 2017 Results
April 24 2017 - 8:00AM
First-quarter highlights:
Illinois Tool Works Inc. (NYSE:ITW) today reported its
first-quarter 2017 results.
First-quarter GAAP earnings were $1.54 per share, an increase of
19% versus the first quarter of 2016. Excluding the impact of
foreign currency translation, EPS grew 21% year-on-year.
Revenue grew 6.0% to $3.5 billion. Organic revenue increased 3.5%
while the 2016 acquisition of Engineered Fasteners & Components
(EF&C) added 3.8% to revenue. Foreign currency translation
reduced revenue by 1.3%.
“Our record results in the first quarter reflect strong
execution across the company and further progress in our efforts to
leverage ITW’s highly differentiated and proprietary business model
to drive solid growth with best-in-class margins and returns,” said
E. Scott Santi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We are off
to a strong start in 2017 and the company is well-positioned to
deliver continued progress and differentiated performance through
the balance of 2017 and beyond.”
Operating income was $809 million, an increase of 12%, and
operating margin for the quarter was 23.3%, an increase of 120
basis points. Excluding the margin impact from the 2016 acquisition
of EF&C, operating margin was 23.8%, an increase of 170 basis
points year-on-year with 100 basis points of structural margin
improvement from Enterprise Initiatives. After-tax return on
invested capital was 23.8%, an improvement of 260 basis points.
First-quarter net income was $536 million.
Organic revenue growth was positive in six of seven segments: 9%
in Automotive OEM, 6% in Test & Measurement/Electronics, 3% in
Construction Products, 2% in Food Equipment and Polymers &
Fluids and 1% in Specialty Products. Welding was flat.
Effective January 1, 2017 the company adopted FASB guidance that
requires that the income tax effects associated with the settlement
of stock-based awards be recognized through income tax expense
rather than equity. The first-quarter effective tax rate was 28.3%,
in line with company expectations.
Full-Year and Second Quarter 2017 GuidanceAs a
result of the company’s strong Q1 results, ITW is raising its 2017
full-year guidance. The company now expects earnings to be in the
range of $6.20 to $6.40 per share, up from prior guidance of $6.00
to $6.20 per share, with organic growth of 2 to 4%, up from 1.5 to
3.5%. ITW expects operating margin to exceed 23.5% and free cash
flow to exceed 100% of net income. The company now expects an
effective tax rate of approximately 29%, down from prior guidance
of 29 to 30%, resulting in an EPS benefit of $0.04 per share.
For the second quarter 2017, the company expects earnings to be
in the range of $1.55 to $1.65 per share with organic growth of 2
to 4%.
