Timken Reports First-Quarter 2020 Results

NORTH CANTON, Ohio, May 1, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- The Timken Company (NYSE: TKR; www.timken.com), a world leader in engineered bearings and power transmission products, today reported first-quarter 2020 sales of $923.4 million, down 5.7 percent from the same period a year ago. The decline was driven by lower demand in most end markets and unfavorable currency, partially offset by the favorable impact of acquisitions and positive pricing.

In the first quarter, Timken posted net income of $80.7 million or $1.06 per diluted share, versus net income of $91.9 million or $1.19 per diluted share for the same period a year ago. The year-over-year decrease was driven primarily by the impact of lower volume and related manufacturing utilization due in part to COVID-19, and unfavorable currency, partially offset by favorable price/mix, lower material and logistics costs, and lower organic selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses. In addition, special items in the quarter were favorable versus the year-ago period, driven mainly by reduced property losses and lower discrete tax expenses, offset partially by higher restructuring charges.

Excluding special items, adjusted net income in the first quarter of 2020 was $84.7 million or $1.11 per diluted share versus adjusted net income of $104.2 million or $1.35 per diluted share for the same period in 2019.

"First quarter revenue and profitability improved meaningfully from the fourth quarter of 2019 as we expected, despite the impact from the COVID-19 pandemic," said Richard G. Kyle, Timken president and chief executive officer. "The Timken team responded quickly to the pandemic, prioritizing the health and safety of our global associates and stakeholders. We have also taken significant short-term cost-reduction actions across the enterprise to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on our second-quarter performance. We are confident in our ability to successfully manage through the challenges that lie ahead."

Net cash from operations for the quarter was $56.2 million and free cash flow was $24.4 million. During the quarter, Timken paid its 391^st consecutive quarterly dividend and repurchased one million shares of company stock. Due to the uncertainty caused by COVID-19, the company has suspended its share buyback program until further notice.

First-Quarter 2020 Segment Results

Mobile Industries sales of $466.7 million decreased 6.7 percent compared with the same period a year ago. The decline was driven primarily by lower shipments in the off-highway, automotive and heavy truck sectors, along with unfavorable currency, partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions and growth in the aerospace sector.

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) in the quarter was $75.1 million or 16.1 percent of sales, compared with EBITDA of $79.3 million or 15.9 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The decrease in EBITDA reflects the impact of lower volume and related manufacturing utilization due in part to COVID-19, and unfavorable currency, partially offset by favorable price/mix, lower material and logistics costs, reduced property losses versus the year-ago period and the favorable impact of acquisitions.

Excluding special items detailed in the attached tables, adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $76.0 million or 16.3 percent of sales, compared with $83.9 million or 16.8 percent of sales in the first quarter last year.

Process Industries sales of $456.7 million decreased 4.8 percent from the same period a year ago. The year-over-year decrease was driven primarily by lower revenue in the industrial distribution and general and heavy industrial sectors, along with unfavorable currency, partially offset by the benefit of acquisitions and strong growth in renewable energy.

EBITDA for the quarter was $107.5 million or 23.5 percent of sales, compared with EBITDA of $127.6 million or 26.6 percent of sales for the same period a year ago. The decrease in EBITDA was driven by the impact of lower volume and related manufacturing utilization due in part to COVID-19, and unfavorable currency, partially offset by lower SG&A expenses and the favorable impact of acquisitions.

Excluding special items detailed in the attached tables, adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $111.5 million or 24.4 percent of sales, compared with $131.2 million or 27.4 percent of sales in the first quarter last year.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital Allocation Update

Timken has sufficient liquidity to meet its near-term needs with $388 million of cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2020. The company drew $350 million on its revolving credit facility on April 3, 2020, to enhance financial flexibility during this period of uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. As of April 3, 2020, the company had over $700 million of cash on hand.

Timken ended the first quarter with a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 2.2 times. The company expects to generate strong free cash flow for the remainder of 2020, and will be focused on reducing net debt.

"The health and safety of our associates and our communities has been a top priority and we will continue to adopt best practices everywhere we operate," said Kyle. "The COVID-19 pandemic has created a shock to demand across most of our markets. While we are confident that demand for our products and technology will endure and recover, the timing and strength of the rebound remain highly uncertain. Timken is taking actions in response by enhancing liquidity, reducing costs and generating strong cash flow. While short-term uncertainty remains high, we know that our products, our technology and the value we bring to the world are essential, and we are confident that Timken will emerge from this environment well positioned to advance as a global industrial leader."

On April 3, 2020, Timken withdrew its 2020 financial guidance due to the evolving impact of COVID-19 on the economy. Given the continued uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, the company has suspended its practice of providing detailed sales and earnings guidance. Timken is planning for revenue to decline significantly in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the year-ago period, with markets anticipated to improve from second-quarter levels over the remainder of the year. The company expects to generate strong free cash flow in 2020. Timken plans to reinstate full-year financial guidance at the earliest reasonable opportunity.

Certain statements in this release (including statements regarding the company's forecasts, estimates, plans and expectations) that are not historical in nature are "forward-looking" statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In particular, the statements related to expectations regarding the company's future financial performance, including information under the heading "Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Capital Allocation Update," are forward-looking.

The company cautions that actual results may differ materially from those projected or implied in forward-looking statements due to a variety of important factors, including: the finalization of the company's financial statements for the first quarter of 2020; the company's ability to respond to the changes in its end markets that could affect demand for the company's products or services; unanticipated changes in business relationships with customers or their purchases from the company; changes in the financial health of the company's customers, which may have an impact on the company's revenues, earnings and impairment charges; fluctuations in material and energy costs; the impact of changes to the company's accounting methods; political risks associated with government instability; recent world events that have increased the risks posed by international trade disputes, tariffs and sanctions; weakness in global or regional economic conditions and capital markets; the company's ability to satisfy its obligations under its debt agreements and renew or refinance borrowings on favorable terms; fluctuations in currency valuations; changes in the expected costs associated with product warranty claims; the ability to achieve satisfactory operating results in the integration of acquired companies, including realizing any accretion within expected timeframes or at all; the impact on operations of general economic conditions; fluctuations in customer demand; the impact on the company's pension obligations and assets due to changes in interest rates, investment performance and other tactics designed to reduce risk; the introduction of new disruptive technologies; unplanned plant shutdowns; the company's ability to maintain positive relations with unions and works councils; negative impacts to the company's business, results of operations, financial position or liquidity as a result of COVID-19 or other epidemics and associated governmental measures such as restrictions on travel and manufacturing operations; and the company's ability to complete and achieve the benefits of announced plans, programs, initiatives, acquisitions and capital investments.

⁽¹⁾ Impairment, restructuring and reorganization charges (including items recorded in cost of products sold) relate to: (i) plant closures; (ii) the rationalization of certain plants and (iii) severance related to cost reduction initiatives. The Company re-assesses its operating footprint and cost structure periodically, and makes adjustments as needed that result in restructuring charges. However, management believes these actions are not representative of the Company's core operations.

⁽²⁾ Acquisition-related charges in 2020 primarily related to the BEKA acquisition, including transaction costs and inventory step-up impact. Acquisition-related charges in 2019 primarily related to the Rollon, Diamond Chain and BEKA acquisitions, including transaction costs and inventory step-up impact.

⁽³⁾ The Brazil legal matter represents expense recorded to establish a liability associated with an investigation into alleged antitrust violations in the bearing industry that was settled in the fourth quarter of 2019.

⁽⁴⁾ The gain on sale of real estate related to the sale of a manufacturing facility in Pulaski, Tennessee during the first quarter of 2019 and disposal of land in Colmar, France during the fourth quarter of 2019. These amounts were recorded in other income.

⁽⁵⁾ Corporate pension and other postretirement benefit related charges represent actuarial (gains) and losses that resulted from the remeasurement of plan assets and obligations as a result of changes in assumptions. The Company recognizes actuarial (gains) and losses in connection with the annual remeasurement in the fourth quarter, or if specific events trigger a remeasurement.

⁽⁶⁾ Represents property loss and related expenses during the periods presented (net of insurance proceeds received) resulting from property loss that occurred during the first quarter of 2019 at one of the Company's warehouses in Knoxville, Tennessee and during the third quarter of 2019 at one of the Company's warehouses in Yantai, China.
