MSA Announces Second Quarter Results
Investments in new product development, acquisitions and restructuring programs drive 28 percent increase in quarterly net income
PITTSBURGH, July 20, 2016 - Global safety equipment manufacturer MSA Safety Incorporated (NYSE: MSA) today reported results for the second quarter of 2016.
Quarterly Highlights
• | Reported revenue was $296 million, increasing 3 percent from a year ago. The recent acquisition of UK-based fall protection company Latchways increased constant currency and reported revenue by 5 percent, while organic constant currency revenue remained flat. |
• | Net income was $31 million or $0.82 per diluted share, compared to $24 million or $0.63 per diluted share in the second quarter a year ago. Adjusted earnings were $0.79 per diluted share, compared to $0.67 per diluted share a year ago. |
Comments from Management
"Our quarterly results reflect strong returns on several strategic investments we've made to drive profitable growth," said William M. Lambert, MSA Chairman, President and CEO. "While we continued to see weak conditions in sales of certain products associated with energy and industrial related end-markets, our investments in new product development, strategic acquisitions and restructuring programs allowed us to recognize earnings growth of 28 percent on 3 percent revenue growth," he continued.

As examples, Mr. Lambert pointed to the continued success of the company’s breakthrough G1 self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA), the recent acquisition of Latchways and the company’s restructuring program that was executed in late 2015.
“Overall, we continue to gain market share in the U.S. fire service with the G1 SCBA, and we are realizing success in a number of international markets as well. On a year-over-year basis, our breathing apparatus sales increased 20 percent for the quarter and 28 percent for the first six months of 2016,” Mr. Lambert said. He also noted that Latchways continues to perform well, providing earnings accretion of $0.01 per diluted share for the quarter and $0.04 per diluted share for the first six months of 2016. Mr. Lambert added that MSA’s 2015 restructuring program has been successful in helping drive reductions in selling, general and administrative expense, down $2 million in the quarter and $4 million year-to-date on a reported basis, and down $4 million in the quarter and $8 million year-to-date in constant currency, excluding Latchways.
"In addition to making investments that drive profitable core product revenue growth, managing our cost structure continues to be a top priority in light of the headwinds we are seeing in key end markets and geographies. Despite these challenges, we remain committed to making strategic investments that help us capture market share, expand operating margins, and enhance the value we deliver to shareholders," Mr. Lambert concluded.

Adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating margin are the measures used by the chief operating decision maker to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. As such, management believes that adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating margin are useful metrics for investors. Adjusted operating income (loss) is defined as income from continuing operations before taxes excluding restructuring charges, interest expense, currency exchange gains (losses), and other income (expense). Adjusted operating margin is defined as adjusted operating income divided by segment net sales. Adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating margin are not recognized terms under GAAP, and the Company's definition of adjusted operating income (loss) and adjusted operating margin may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. As such, management believes that it is appropriate to consider operating income determined on a GAAP basis in addition to these non-GAAP financial measures.

Management believes that constant currency revenue growth is a useful metric for investors, as foreign currency translation can have a material impact on revenue growth trends. Constant currency revenue growth highlights ongoing business performance excluding the impact of fluctuating foreign currencies, which is outside of management's control.
Organic constant currency revenue is defined as constant currency revenue excluding Latchways revenue results. Management believes that organic constant currency revenue growth is a useful measure for investors to provide an understanding of MSA's standalone results excluding the acquisition.
There can be no assurances that MSA's definition of constant currency revenue growth or organic constant currency revenue growth is consistent with that of other companies. As such, management believes that it is appropriate to consider revenue growth determined on a GAAP basis in addition to these non-GAAP financial measures.

Management believes that constant currency SG&A expense and organic constant currency SG&A expense are useful metrics for investors to measure the effectiveness of the company's cost reduction program announced in 2015. Constant currency SG&A expense highlights spending patterns excluding fluctuating foreign currencies. Organic constant currency SG&A expense highlights the impact of the Latchways acquisition. These metrics provide investors with a greater level of clarity into spending levels on a year-over-year basis. MSA's definition of this metric may not be comparable to metrics used by other companies. As such, management believes that it is appropriate to consider SG&A expense determined on a GAAP basis in addition to these non-GAAP measures.

Management believes that adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings per diluted share are useful measures for investors, as management uses these measures to internally assess the company’s performance and ongoing operating trends. There can be no assurances that additional special items will not occur in future periods, nor that MSA's definition of adjusted earnings is consistent with that of other companies. As such, management believes that it is appropriate to consider both net income determined on a GAAP basis as well as adjusted earnings.
