JBT Corporation Reports Second Quarter 2019 Results

CHICAGO, July 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- JBT Corporation (NYSE: JBT), a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food & beverage industry, today reported results for the second quarter of 2019.

"Our second quarter results reinforce JBT's ability to create a more efficient and competitive organization, with continued growth and better than expected margin expansion," said Tom Giacomini, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer.

Second quarter 2019 revenue of $493.3 million was essentially flat year over year, consisting of 4 percent organic growth and 5 percent from acquisitions, offset by a 2 percent headwind from foreign exchange translation and a 6 percent decline attributable to the absence of the ASC 606 transition benefit recorded in the second quarter of 2018.

Operating income was $47.0 million in the second quarter of 2019, including restructuring expense of $4.3 million and M&A costs of $10.8 million. Net income for the period was $33.7 million. Adjusted EBITDA expanded 17 percent to $77.7 million, with a 230 basis point margin improvement to 15.8 percent.

FoodTech profitability benefited from a highly favorable mix and restructuring savings with operating profit margins of 14.9 percent in the second quarter of 2019, up from 13.1 percent in the second quarter of 2018. FoodTech adjusted EBITDA margins expanded from 17.0 percent in the second quarter of 2018 to 20.3 percent in the second quarter of 2019. AeroTech operating profit margins improved from 11.4 percent in the second quarter of 2018 to 11.9 percent in the second quarter of 2019. AeroTech adjusted EBITDA margins, expanded from 11.9 percent to 13.2 percent.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $1.06 for the second quarter of 2019 compared with $1.04 in the second quarter of 2018. Adjusted earnings per share was $1.42 compared with $1.27 in the year-ago period.

Orders and Backlog

Second quarter 2019 orders declined 12 percent from the year-ago period at both FoodTech and AeroTech. Backlog was flat compared with the second quarter of 2018.

"Record orders at FoodTech and AeroTech in second quarter of 2018 made for difficult year-over-year order comparisons," said Brian Deck, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "Additionally at FoodTech, commercial activity is not converting to orders as quickly as last year given customers' economic and trade uncertainty. Market conditions for AeroTech remain solid."

Restructuring Program

In the second quarter of 2019, JBT recorded restructuring charges of $4.3 million as part of the previously announced, companywide program to reshape operations.

"We are realizing benefits from our restructuring ahead of schedule with savings of $8 million in the period," continued Deck. "We expect to achieve incremental savings of $26 million for full year 2019 toward our total program savings goal of $55 million in 2020."

Acquisitions

"The two acquisitions we completed in June 2019 complement and enhance our customer solution portfolio," added Giacomini. The addition of Proseal expands JBT's end-of-line packaging solutions with environmentally-friendly technology. Prime Equipment Group provides labor-saving automation and water saving technology to the poultry industry.

Outlook

"With the completion of the Proseal and Prime acquisitions, coupled with the strong second quarter performance, we have revised our guidance for full year 2019," added Deck. For 2019, the Company continues to anticipate organic growth of 4 - 5 percent. Completed acquisitions are now expected to contribute growth of around 7 percent. Foreign exchange translation is now anticipated to be a 2 percent headwind. Reported revenue is expected to be up approximately 3 percent year over year, considering that 2018 results included revenue of $127 million associated with the transition to ASC 606.

JBT projects earnings per share from continuing operations in the range of $3.95 - $4.15 in 2019. On an adjusted basis, the Company has raised its guidance to $4.70 - $4.90.

For the third quarter of 2019, JBT projects revenue of $500 million - $510 million. The Company expects diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.90 - $0.95 or $1.05 - $1.10 on an adjusted basis.

      The above table reports adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We use these measures internally to make operating decisions and for the planning and forecasting of future periods,
       and therefore provide this information to investors because we believe it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results, without the fluctuations in the amount of certain costs that do not reflect our underlying operating results.

               (1) Segment operating profit is defined as total segment revenue less segment operating expenses.  Corporate expense, restructuring expense, interest income and expense, pension expense other than service, and income taxes are not allocated to the segments.
                Corporate expense generally includes corporate staff-related expense, stock-based compensation, LIFO adjustments, certain foreign currency related gains and losses, and the impact of unusual or strategic events not representative of segment operations.



               (2) Total segment operating profit, as presented elsewhere in this release, is a non-GAAP measure.  The table above includes a reconciliation of total segment operating profit to operating income.  We believe that this measure provides to investors a more
                comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in evaluating the performance of its segment operations.  It is not intended to nor shall be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

      Beginning in the first quarter of 2019, we changed our presentation of non-GAAP measures to exclude M&A related costs, specifically amortization of inventory step up, integration costs, and transaction expenses. We evaluate operational performance and operating trends after excluding certain expenses incurred to fulfill our
       acquisition strategy. M&A related costs are excluded from the prior year results to conform to the current year presentation.




      The above table reports EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Given the Company's focus on growth through acquisitions, management believes EBITDA facilitates an evaluation of business performance while excluding the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets, and the
       depreciation of fixed assets. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe this information is helpful to investors because it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results.

               Beginning in the first quarter of 2019, we changed our presentation of non-GAAP measures to exclude M&A related costs, specifically amortization of inventory step up, integration costs, and transaction expenses. We evaluate
                operational performance and operating trends after excluding certain expenses incurred to fulfill our acquisition strategy. M&A related costs are excluded from the prior year results to conform to the current year presentation.




               The above table reports EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Given the Company's focus on growth through acquisitions, management believes EBITDA facilitates an evaluation of business performance while
                excluding the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets, and the depreciation of fixed assets. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe this information is helpful to
                investors because it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results.

               Beginning in the first quarter of 2019, we changed our presentation of non-GAAP measures to exclude M&A related costs, specifically amortization of inventory step up, integration costs, and transaction expenses. We evaluate operational
                performance and operating trends after excluding certain expenses incurred to fulfill our acquisition strategy. M&A related costs are excluded from the prior year results to conform to the current year presentation.




               The above table reports EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. Given the Company's focus on growth through acquisitions, management believes EBITDA facilitates an evaluation of business performance while excluding
                the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets, and the depreciation of fixed assets. We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe this information is helpful to investors because it
                allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results.

      The above table reports Free cash flow, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. We use Free cash flow internally as a key indicator of our liquidity and ability to service debt, invest in
       business combinations, and return money to shareholders and believe this information is useful to investors because it provides an understanding of the cash available to fund these
       initiatives. For Free cash flow purposes we consider contributions to pension plans to more comparable to payment of debt, and therefore excluded these contributions from the calculation of
       Free cash flow.

      (1) Restructuring expense is estimated to be approximately $2 million
       for Q3 and $12 - 15 million for full year 2019. The mid-point
       amount has been divided by our estimate of 32.1 million total shares
       and dilutive securities to derive earnings per share.




      (2) M&A related costs are estimated to be between $4 - 5 million for
       Q3 and approximately $19 million for full year 2019. The mid-point
       amount has been divided by our estimate of 32.1 million total shares
       and dilutive securities to derive earnings per share. Beginning in
       the first quarter of 2019, we changed our presentation of non-GAAP
       measures to exclude M&A related costs, specifically amortization of
       inventory step up, integration costs, and transaction expenses. We
       evaluate operational performance and operating trends after excluding
       certain expenses incurred to fulfill our acquisition strategy. M&A
       related costs are excluded from the prior year results to conform to
       the current year presentation.




      (3) Impact on tax provision was calculated using the Company's
       effective tax rate of approximately 25%.
