ITW Reports Third Quarter 2020 Results
October 23 2020 - 8:00AM
Illinois Tool Works Inc. (NYSE: ITW) today reported its third
quarter 2020 results.
“We saw solid recovery progress in many of the
end markets we serve in the third quarter as evidenced by our
revenue being up sequentially 29 percent versus second
quarter. Our people around the world responded by leveraging
our proprietary business model to provide excellent service to our
customers while keeping themselves and their co-workers safe.
These efforts and our third quarter financial results support the
decisions we made early in the pandemic to provide full
compensation and benefits support to all of our ITW team members,
to focus on positioning the company for full participation in the
recovery, and to remain invested in the key initiatives supporting
the execution of our long-term enterprise strategy,” said E. Scott
Santi, chairman and chief executive officer. “I am very proud
of how the ITW team is managing through this challenging period,
and I thank all of my ITW colleagues around the world for their
continued exceptional efforts and dedication.”
“In the face of the unprecedented challenges and
circumstances brought about by the global pandemic, our strong
operational and financial performance over the last several
quarters provides further evidence that ITW is a company that has
both the enduring competitive advantages and the resilience
necessary to deliver consistent upper tier performance in any
economic environment. Looking ahead, we remain focused on
delivering strong results across a range of economic scenarios
while continuing to execute on our long-term strategy to achieve
and sustain ITW’s full-potential performance,” Santi concluded.
Third Quarter
ResultsThird-quarter revenue of $3.3 billion declined 4.9
percent compared to the prior year period as organic revenue
declined 4.6 percent. Divestitures reduced revenue by 1.0
percent, partially offset by a foreign currency translation benefit
of 0.7 percent. Product Line Simplification reduced revenue
by 30 basis points.
Operating margin was 23.8 percent compared to
25.0 percent in the prior year period as the lower volume impact
and higher restructuring expenses were partially offset with
benefits from Enterprise Initiatives of 120 basis points. Six
of seven segments delivered operating margin above 20 percent.
GAAP earnings per share was $1.83 compared to
$2.04 in the prior year period. Free cash flow was $631
million, 108 percent of net income. After-tax return on
invested capital improved to 29.6 percent compared to 29.2 percent
in the prior year period. The effective tax rate was 21.3
percent.
On May 5, 2020, ITW suspended annual guidance
for 2020 due to uncertainties regarding the duration and severity
of the COVID-19 pandemic. On August 7, 2020, ITW raised its
dividend seven percent to an annualized $4.56 per share.
