Robbins & Myers Announces Fourth Quarter & Fiscal Year 2012 Results And Dividend
HOUSTON, Oct. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Robbins & Myers, Inc. (NYSE: RBN) today reported diluted net earnings per share from continuing operations (DEPS) of $0.76 for its fiscal fourth quarter ended August 31, 2012, or $0.92 after adjusting for unfavorable costs of $0.16 related to its pending merger with National Oilwell Varco, the estimated settlement of an export investigation matter, settlement of the work stoppage at its Springfield, Ohio, pump manufacturing plant and the impact of the hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico the last week of August. This compares with $0.77 from continuing operations in the prior year fourth quarter, or $0.79, after adjusting for restructuring charges related to the Company's Process & Flow Control segment. Excluding the impact of these items, DEPS was $0.92 compared with $0.79 in the prior year period, an increase of 16%.
For the full fiscal year, Robbins & Myers reported DEPS of $3.39 compared with $1.94 for fiscal year 2011, fiscal 2011 included $0.44 of restructuring and T-3 acquisition related charges.
Consolidated sales were $275 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 as compared with $259 million in the fourth quarter of 2011. Excluding the impact of currency translation, sales grew $23 million, or 9%, over the prior year period. The Company reported fourth quarter 2012 orders of $267 million, an increase of 5% over the prior year period excluding the impact of currency translation. Fourth quarter ending backlog increased to $308 million from $251 million at the end of the prior fiscal year.
Fourth quarter 2012 earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were $47 million, or adjusted EBIT of $56 million, adjusting for $9 million in unfavorable costs related to its pending merger with National Oilwell Varco, the potential settlement of an export investigation matter, settlement of the work stoppage at our Springfield, Ohio, pump manufacturing plant and the impact of the hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico the last week of August.
Fourth Quarter Results by Segment
All comparisons are made against the comparable year-ago quarterly period unless otherwise stated.
The Company's Energy Services segment reported orders of $173 million, an increase of $8 million over the prior year period excluding the impact of currency. Sales were $176 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and $10 million over the prior year period, excluding currency impacts. EBIT was $45 million, which included the unfavorable impact of the Gulf of Mexico hurricane of $2 million, compared with EBIT of $51 million in the prior year period. Product mix had a negative impact on the current quarter's EBIT, as the sales of profitable drilling system products were lower compared with the prior year. Ending backlog was $170 million, significantly higher than the $121 million at the end of the prior year.
The Process & Flow Control segment reported orders of $94 million, which were $4 million, or 4%, over the prior year period excluding currency impacts. The increase was primarily due to improving demand for capital goods in the chemical markets. Sales of $99 million were $13 million, or 14%, higher than the prior year excluding currency impacts. The segment reported $12 million of EBIT in the fourth quarter of 2012, including costs related to the settlement of the work stoppage at the Springfield, Ohio, pump manufacturing plant, or 11.9% of sales, as compared with $7 million of adjusted EBIT, or 7.1%, of sales in the prior year period. Backlog rose to $138 million from $130 million at the end of the prior fiscal year.
"We are pleased with performance in both of our business segments," said Peter C. Wallace, President and Chief Executive Officer of Robbins & Myers, Inc. "The Energy Services segment has been impacted by a reduction in U.S. rig count and lower drilling activity during the quarter, but still demonstrated excellent performance. In the Process & Flow Control segment, we experienced stronger demand in the chemical and industrial markets. We have steadily improved operating performance in this segment by leveraging incremental sales volume and recovering margin with a sharper focus on regional pricing opportunities and cost controls resulting in operating margin of nearly 12% for the quarter, including the effect of the work stoppage settlement."
Share Repurchase
During the fourth quarter and prior to June 19, 2012 the Company repurchased 0.5 million of its shares for a total of $24 million. For the fiscal year of 2012 the Company repurchased 4.0 million shares for a total of $187 million.
Conference Call
The Company will not be holding a webcast or conference call due to the pending merger with National Oilwell Varco.
Dividend Declared
Robbins & Myers also announced today that its Board of Directors approved its regular quarterly cash dividend payment of $0.05 per share. The dividend is payable on November 20, 2012 to shareholders of record as of October 29, 2012.

EBIT, adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBIT margin %, and adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company uses these measures to evaluate its businesses, and allocates resources to its businesses based on EBIT. EBIT is not, however, a measure of performance calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of our operating results. EBIT and adjusted EBIT are not a measure of cash available for use by the Company. Adjusted diluted EPS from continuing operations should not be considered as an alternative to reported net income as an indicator of performance. |
