Item 12. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

 

On February 26, 2004, we issued a press release attached as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

 

The press release incorporated by reference into this Item 12 contains disclosure regarding free cash flow, which is defined as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures. Our management believes that free cash flow can be a useful financial measure for investors in evaluating the cash flow performance of multi-industrial companies, since it provides insight into the amount of cash available to fund such things as debt reduction and acquisitions or other strategic investments. In addition, free cash flow is one of the factors used by our management in internal evaluations of the overall performance of our business. Free cash flow, however, is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP, should not be considered a substitute for cash flows from operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of liquidity, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. In addition, free cash flow is not a direct measure of cash flow available for discretionary spending, since non-discretionary expenditures, such as debt service, are not deducted from free cash flow.

 

The information in this Report is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section. The information in this Report shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.


SIGNATURE

 

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

SPX REPORTS RECORD FOURTH QUARTER 2003 RESULTS

 

4Q Free Cash Flow 307% of Income From Continuing Operations

4Q Diluted EPS From Continuing Operations up 31% to $1.30

 

CHARLOTTE, NC – February 26, 2004 – SPX Corporation (NYSE:SPW) today announced fourth quarter 2003 financial results of $1.45 billion in revenues, diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $1.30, and free cash flow from continuing operations of $303.8 million.

 

Commenting on the company’s results, John B. Blystone, Chairman, President and CEO said, “We finished the year with a strong fourth quarter and delivered record free cash flow of $546.4 million for the year. Despite tough market conditions, revenues grew 5.4% as a result of our focus on profitably growing strategic platforms, and we generated diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $3.41.”

 

“Our solid financial performance in 2003 is attributable to our disciplined EVA philosophy and the SPX Value Improvement Process®. We are excited about the company’s prospects for 2004 and beyond. As the economy begins to improve, we’re confident that our Value Improvement Process will further expand our growth prospects.”

 

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

 

Cash Flow: Free cash flow for the quarter was $303.8 million, up 104% compared to $148.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2002.

 

  · Free cash flow as a percentage of income from continuing operations was 307% for the quarter, up from 186% in the fourth quarter 2002.

 

  · Included in fourth quarter free cash flow was $60.0 million related to a favorable patent litigation settlement.

  · Free cash flow as a percentage of income from continuing operations was 207% for the full year 2003 up from 126% in 2002.

 

  · Full year free cash flow from continuing operations included $60.0 million and $34.8 million in 2003 and 2002, respectively, related to favorable patent litigation settlements.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF RESULTS

 

In the fourth quarter of 2003, cooling technologies exceeded ten percent of total revenue, which is consistent with the future prospects for the business. In accordance with SFAS No. 131 “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” cooling technologies is now reported as a new segment — Cooling Technologies and Services. All prior periods presented have been restated to separate Cooling Technologies and Services from the Flow Technology segment.

 

The company’s results of operations are now reported in five segments: Technical Products and Systems, Industrial Products and Services, Flow Technology, Cooling Technologies and Services, and Service Solutions. The following section describes results of operations by segment for the full year 2003.


Technical Products and Systems

 

Revenues increased $138.2 million or 12.4% to $1.25 billion from $1.11 billion in 2002. The increase was due primarily to bolt-on acquisitions completed in 2002 and 2003 and organic revenue growth in security and integrated building life-safety systems. Despite a decline in the domestic non-residential building construction market, organic revenues increased in this platform due to continued strong demand for high-end fire detection products and new product introductions.

 

Organic revenue declines were experienced in broadcast and communication systems and services and laboratory and life science products. While organic revenues declined low single digits in laboratory and life sciences, revenues at Kendro, the primary unit in this platform, were flat in 2003 compared to 2002. Broadcast and communications’ organic revenues declined 23.5% due to regulatory delays in the HDTV rollout and a decline in demand for telecommunication line management systems.

 

Segment income was $205.3 million in 2003, a decrease of $17.6 million or 7.9% from $222.9 million in 2002. As a percentage of revenues, segment income was 16.4%, down from 20.0% in 2002, due primarily to lower organic revenues. Segment margins also were impacted by bolt-on acquisitions completed in 2002 and 2003 that had historically lower margins than existing businesses.

 

In the fourth quarter, the company recorded a charge of $3.6 million, including legal costs, related to a commercial sales contract settlement at broadcast and communication systems. Broad restructuring actions have been taken across broadcast and communication systems and further restructuring charges are expected as the Radiodetection unit is integrated with this platform.

 

Industrial Products and Services

 

Segment revenues were $1.43 billion in 2003, a decrease of $178.2 million or 11.1% from $1.60 billion in 2002. The decrease was due to the significant organic revenue decline in power systems and lower organic revenue in specialty engineered products. Reduced demand and pricing pressures continued to impact power generation end markets. Accordingly, power systems experienced a decline in revenues in 2003 of approximately 45%.

 

Compaction equipment reported organic revenue growth of 11.4% due primarily to the favorable translation impact of the strong Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar and market share gains in Asia.

 

Segment income was $137.0 million, a decrease of $96.0 million or 41.2% from $233.0 million in 2002. As a percentage of revenues, segment income was 9.6% in 2003 compared to 14.5% in 2002 due primarily to the weak power systems market, as well as pricing and operating margins at compaction equipment and inventory write-downs and operating inefficiencies at the industrial tool and hydraulics business. Segment income decreased approximately $63.0 million at power systems due to reduced demand and pricing pressures.


The company also incurred approximately $3.9 million of costs associated with an insolvent supplier to its high integrity castings business. The transition from this supplier is substantially complete and customer deliveries have not been impacted.

 

Flow Technology

 

Revenues for the segment increased $32.9 million or 3.5% to $981.8 million in 2003 from $948.9 million in 2002. The increase was due primarily to bolt-on acquisitions completed in 2002 and 2003 and organic revenue growth in the boilers and hydronic products unit. Fluid systems’ organic revenues declined mid single digits.

 

Segment income was $163.6 million, a decrease of $4.1 million or 2.4% from $167.7 million in 2002. As a percentage of revenues, segment income was 16.7%, down from 17.7% in 2002 due primarily to bolt-on acquisitions completed in 2002 and 2003 of companies that had historically lower margins than existing businesses.

 

In the fourth quarter a $2.4 million net warranty charge was recorded at the boilers and hydronic products business associated with a change in estimate based on experience with specific product warranty claims.

 

Cooling Technologies and Services

 

Segment revenues increased $194.9 million or 44.6% to $631.7 million for the year from $436.8 million in 2002. The increase was due primarily to the acquisition of Balcke Cooling Products Group in the third quarter of 2002 and 13.1% organic revenue growth in 2003. Soft demand in the U.S. power market was offset by strong global demand for large construction cooling technology products and reconstruction services.

 

Segment income increased $20.9 million or 40.5% to $72.5 million up from $51.6 million in 2002 as a result of the acquisition of Balcke and strong organic revenue growth. In 2003, an $8.9 million benefit was realized from operational cost improvements at an environmental remediation site in California. As a percentage of revenues, segment income was 11.5%, down from 11.8% in 2002.

 

Service Solutions

 

Revenues for the segment increased $71.4 million or 9.9% to $790.9 million compared to $719.5 million in 2002. The revenue improvement was due primarily to strong specialty tool sales in North America and Europe. New product introductions and strong domestic dealer equipment service revenues drove strong specialty tool sales.

 

Segment income increased 0.9% to $87.3 million from $86.5 million in 2002. As a percentage of revenues, segment income was 11.0% in 2003 compared to 12.0% in 2002, due primarily to higher distribution revenues, which have lower average margins.


OTHER ITEMS

 

Share Repurchases: During 2003, the company repurchased 7.3 million shares of its common stock for approximately $315.4 million. This reduced the share count by approximately 9%. Under the most restrictive financial covenant, the company’s available capacity to make restricted payments, which includes paying cash dividends or repurchasing stock, was $58.0 million at December 31, 2003. This capacity grows at a rate of 50% of defined Consolidated Net Income in each fiscal period.

 

Dividend Policy: In December 2003, the company announced the implementation of a quarterly dividend program. The Board of Directors has approved an initial target quarterly dividend level of $0.25 per share. The actual amount of each quarterly dividend, as well as each declaration date, record date and payment date, is subject to the discretion of the Board, and the target dividend level may be adjusted during the year at the discretion of the Board. On February 25, 2004, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per common share payable on April 1, 2004, to shareholders of record on March 11, 2004.

 

Other Comprehensive Income: The recent improvement in the performance of the U.S. financial markets improved the funded status of the company’s pension plan. As a result, the company recorded a prepaid pension asset at December 31, 2003. The increase in shareholders’ equity as a result of the pension adjustment was $164.1 million, net of tax.

 

Interest Expense: Fourth quarter interest expense included charges of approximately $11.1 million related to accounting for interest rate swaps and a non-cash write-off of capitalized financing costs that were previously being amortized. On December 31, 2003, the company repaid $200.0 million of the Tranche B term loan in advance of its maturity date. On February 12, 2004, the company refinanced the credit facility to reduce the applicable rate on the Tranche B term loan. The company also amended certain covenants to, among other things, increase its flexibility associated with the mandatory repayment of debt and disposition of assets.

 

Legal Settlement: On December 23, 2003, SPX reached a favorable settlement award through its subsidiary, Imagexpo LLC, associated with a patent infringement claim against Microsoft Corporation. As part of the settlement, all claims were dismissed with prejudice and Microsoft was granted an irrevocable, non-exclusive license to the patent for the remaining useful life of the patent. In consideration of the settlement, SPX received cash proceeds of $60.0 million and recorded a gain of $41.9 million as other income, after taking into consideration related expenses. Accrued costs of $15.6 million related to the 2003 Microsoft patent litigation settlement will be paid in the first quarter of 2004.


Discontinued Operations: On April 7, 2003, SPX and CNT announced that they had signed a definitive agreement that resulted in the acquisition by CNT of all of the outstanding shares of SPX’s Inrange Technologies subsidiary for approximately $190 million in cash. The transaction closed on May 5, 2003, and SPX received approximately $149 million in net cash proceeds. For GAAP purposes, Inrange is treated as a discontinued operation. Inrange’s results for all periods and the loss on the sale net of tax, are consolidated on one line labeled “Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax” on the attached consolidated statements of income.
