- Segment operating profit of $40.2 million, an increase of 34 percent
- Inbound orders increased 21 percent year over year

JBT Corporation (NYSE: JBT), a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food & beverage industry, today reported results for the third quarter of 2016.
Third quarter 2016 revenue increased 28 percent from the same period in 2015, comprised of 17 percent organic growth and 11 percent growth from acquisitions. Segment operating profit increased 34 percent year over year. Segment operating profit margin improved 50 basis points to 11.5 percent in the third quarter of 2016. The third quarter results benefitted from strong aftermarket performance and a few customer shipments that had been anticipated in the fourth quarter.
Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.69 for the third quarter of 2016, including acquisition-related costs of $2 million pretax, or $0.04 per share, and a discrete tax benefit of $1.5 million, or $0.05 per share, associated with R&D credits. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.43 in the third quarter of 2015.
"We are very pleased to report another quarter of robust earnings growth and expanded profitability," said Tom Giacomini, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our investments in the business, including selective strategic acquisitions, have made us a stronger equipment and service provider, deepening relationships with our customers."
Orders and Backlog
For the third quarter of 2016, inbound orders of $347 million increased 21 percent, reflecting year-over-year increases of 27 percent and 9 percent at FoodTech and AeroTech, respectively. Backlog increased 25 percent year over year.
Acquisitions
On October 14, 2016, JBT completed the acquisition of Cooling and Applied Technologies (C.A.T.), Inc. The purchase price was $90 million, before customary post-closing adjustments. C.A.T. is a leading producer of chillers, injection, marination, weighing, freezing, and refrigeration systems, primarily for the poultry industry. On October 3, 2016, JBT announced a definitive agreement to purchase Tipper Tie, Inc., a leading provider of engineered production and packaging solutions, and related consumables to the food industry. The purchase price is $160 million, before customary post-closing adjustments.
"Both acquisitions add highly complementary product lines to JBT's protein platform, enabling us to offer customers a more complete production solution to their operating challenges," added Giacomini. "The acquisitions also create value for shareholders, with significant projected earnings accretion in 2017 and 2018."
The acquisition of C.A.T. is expected to add annual revenue of approximately $50 million. JBT expects transaction costs and purchase price accounting associated with the acquisition to result in a $0.03 - $0.05 per share negative impact in the fourth quarter of 2016. The Company expects C.A.T. to contribute $0.05 - $0.10 per share to earnings in 2017, inclusive of the impact of continuing purchase price accounting and integration costs. In 2018, the Company anticipates earnings accretion associated with the acquisition of $0.15 - $0.20 per share.
The acquisition of Tipper Tie, slated to close in the fourth quarter of 2016, is expected to add annual revenue of approximately $90 million. JBT projects the acquisition of Tipper Tie to result in dilution of $0.03 - $0.05 per share in the fourth quarter of 2016 and accretion of approximately $0.08 - $0.12 per share in 2017 and $0.23 - $0.28 per share in 2018.
2016 Outlook
"We are raising our full-year 2016 guidance, while absorbing $0.06 to $0.10 per share associated with fourth quarter acquisitions," concluded Giacomini.
Due to strong top-line growth in 2016 and the expected contribution from the recently announced acquisitions, JBT raises its full-year revenue guidance to approximately 20 percent growth – comprised of 7 percent organic growth and 13 percent growth from acquisitions. That compares with the previous forecast of 16 percent revenue growth, with 5 to 6 percent organic growth and 10 percent growth from acquisitions. Segment operating margins are expected to increase 25 to 50 basis points. Excluding the impact of the fourth-quarter acquisitions, the Company continues to expect segment margin expansion of 50 to 75 basis points.
For 2016, the Company anticipates diluted earnings per share of $2.05 - $2.15, or $2.30 - $2.40 on an adjusted basis. That compares with previous guidance of $2.00 - $2.10, or $2.25 - $2.35 on an adjusted basis, and diluted earnings per share of $1.88 in 2015.

| The above table provides net income as adjusted by income taxes, net interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense recorded during the period to arrive at EBITDA. Further, we add back to EBITDA significant expenses that are not indicative of our ongoing operations to calculate an Adjusted EBITDA for the periods reported. Given the Company's Next Level focus on growth through strategic acquisitions, management considers Adjusted EBITDA to be an important non-GAAP financial measure. This measure allows us to monitor 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. This information is not intended to nor should it be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. |
