Altra Reports Third-Quarter 2014 Results
Achieved 16.0% Year over Year Revenue Growth
Returned Over $21 Million to Shareholders Year to Date
BRAINTREE, Mass., October 24, 2014 -- Altra Industrial Motion Corp. (Nasdaq:AIMC), a global manufacturer and marketer of electromechanical power transmission and motion control products, today announced unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2014.
Financial Highlights
| |
• | Third-quarter 2014 net sales were $202.5 million, compared with $175.4 million in the third quarter of 2013, an increase of 16.0%. Excluding the impact of the Svendborg and Guardian acquisitions, third-quarter sales were $178.6 million, an increase of 1.8% from the same quarter of 2013. |
| |
• | Third-quarter net income was $6.9 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, compared with $10.5 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2013. Non-GAAP net income in Q3 2014 increased to $12.2 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, from $10.8 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, a year ago.* |
| |
• | During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company recognized a discrete tax expense of approximately $3.8 million, of which approximately $2.4 million relates to expected cash tax payments, relating to a reorganization of its foreign subsidiaries reporting ownership. This reorganization is expected to result in the reduction of Altra’s tax rate by 100 to 150 basis points beginning in the fourth quarter of 2014. |
| |
• | The Company purchased $9.9 million in Altra stock, or approximately 301,000 shares, during the third quarter through its $50 million repurchase program, which expires at the end of 2016. |
| |
• | The Company initiated a European restructuring plan and incurred approximately $1.6 million of expense, primarily from head count reductions in the quarter ended September 30, 2014. |

Management Comments
"Our solid third-quarter performance met our expectations, even as we faced headwinds from discrete healthcare related costs and the weaker than expected European economy," said Carl Christenson, Altra's Chairman and CEO. “Most of our end markets continued to demonstrate good demand in the quarter. We again generated strong cash flow, which has enabled Altra to return over $21 million to shareholders through quarterly dividends and our stock repurchase program through the first nine months of the year.”
Business Outlook
"Our various corporate initiatives, including strategic pricing, the ramp-up of the China facility and our improvement of underperforming businesses, remain on track,” said Christenson. “We have completed the integration of SAP at all of the target sites, and we are excited about the investments we are making in new business activities. We also have made a significant investment in the reorganization of our foreign subsidiaries reporting structure in order to reduce our ongoing tax rate by 100 to 150 basis points, beginning in the fourth quarter. However, given the deteriorating economic environment in Europe and prolonged higher medical claims costs, we are narrowing our EPS guidance for 2014 to the lower end of our range.”
Altra is narrowing its revenue guidance for 2014 to the range of $815 to $825 million. The Company also is narrowing its non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance for 2014 to $1.75 to $1.80. As a result of the foreign subsidiary reorganization, the Company now expects its tax rate for the full year to be approximately 30% to 32% before discrete items. Altra also expects capital expenditures in the range of $23 to $25 million and depreciation and amortization in the range of $32 to $33 million.*
The Company will host an investor conference call to discuss its third-quarter financial results today, October 24, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. ET. The public is invited to listen to the conference call by dialing (877) 407-8293 domestically or (201) 689-8349 for international access and asking to participate in the ALTRA conference call.

* Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
As used in this release and the accompanying slides posted on the Company's website, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP net income are each calculated using either net income or income from operations that excludes acquisition related costs, restructuring costs, and other income or charges that management does not consider to be directly related to the Company's core operating performance. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted). Non-GAAP free cash flow is calculated by deducting purchases of property, plant and equipment from net cash flows from operating activities. Non-GAAP operating working capital is calculated by deducting accounts payable from net trade receivables plus inventories.
Altra believes that the presentation of non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP income from operations, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP free cash flow and non-GAAP operating working capital provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
Forward-Looking Statements
All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this release are forward-looking statements, as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, but are not limited to, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance, achievements or events. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by phrases such as "believes," "expects," "potential," "continues," "may," "should," "seeks," "predicts," "anticipates," "intends," "projects," "estimates," "plans," "could," "designed", "should be," and other similar expressions that denote expectations of future or conditional events rather than statements of fact. Forward-looking statements also may relate to strategies, plans and objectives for, and potential results of, future operations, financial results, financial condition, business prospects, growth strategy and liquidity, and are based upon financial data, market assumptions and management's current business plans and beliefs or current estimates of future results or trends available only as of the time the statements are made, which may become out of date or incomplete. Forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain, and investors must recognize that events could differ significantly from our
expectations.

Discussion of Non-GAAP Measures * As used in this release and the accompanying slides posted on the Company's website, non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP income from operations and non-GAAP net income are each calculated using either net income or income from operations that excludes acquisition related costs, restructuring costs, and other income or charges that management does not consider to be directly related to the Company's core operating performance. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing non-GAAP net income by GAAP weighted average shares outstanding (diluted). Non-GAAP free cash flow is calculated by deducting purchases of property, plant and equipment from net cash flows from operating activities. Non-GAAP operating working capital is calculated by deducting accounts payable from net trade receivables plus inventories. Altra believes that the presentation of non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP income from operations, non- GAAP diluted earnings per share, non-GAAP free cash flow and non-GAAP operating working capital provides important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations. 10
