DANBURY, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 23, 2013--Praxair, Inc. (NYSE: PX) announced full-year 2012 reported net income of $1,692 million and reported diluted earnings per share of $5.61. On an adjusted basis, full-year net income was $1,681 million and diluted earnings per share was $5.57, 3% above the prior year.*
Full-year sales were $11,224, 5% above 2011 excluding negative foreign currency translation and cost pass-through effects.
Reported operating profit was $2,437 million. Adjusted operating profit was $2,502 million, compared to $2,469 million in the prior year.* The increase was driven by higher volumes, higher pricing and productivity, partially offset by currency translation effects. Operating profit in North America grew by 10%, but was largely offset by lower operating profit in Europe and South America.
For the full year, cash flow from operations was a record $2,752 million, up 12% from 2011. Capital expenditures, primarily for new production plants under long-term contracts with customers, were $2,180 million. The company invested $280 million in acquisitions, for seventeen North American packaged gas distributors and an industrial gas business in Russia. The company paid $655 million of dividends and repurchased $459 million of stock, net of issuances.
For the fourth quarter, net income and diluted earnings per share were $414 million and $1.38, as compared to adjusted amounts of $414 million and $1.36 in the prior-year quarter, respectively.*
Sales in the fourth quarter were $2,799 million, comparable to the prior-year, as higher price and acquisitions were offset by negative currency effects. Operating profit in the fourth quarter was $616 million versus $619 million in the prior-year quarter.*
Commenting on the financial results and business outlook, chairman and chief executive officer Steve Angel said, “In 2012, Praxair delivered record operating cash flow of $2.8 billion, which represented 25% of sales. We also achieved a record operating margin of 22.3%, which we achieved through global productivity gains as well as price attainment in most operating segments. Our industry-leading North American business achieved double-digit operating profit growth with strength across most end markets. These strong results were mitigated by recessions in Brazil and Europe, moderating growth in China, and significant currency translation headwinds.
“As we enter 2013, Praxair remains committed to driving performance in an uncertain economic environment. In addition, our backlog of large projects remains strong at $2.6 billion and new proposal activity remains solid. This backlog will contribute 4% to 6% growth in 2013, as the plants start up to supply on-site customers under long-term contracts.”
For the full year of 2013, Praxair expects sales in the area of $12 billion. The company expects diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $5.85 to $6.10, up 5% to 10%.* Full-year capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $1.8 to $2.0 billion, and the effective tax rate is forecasted to remain at about 28%.
For the first quarter of 2013, Praxair expects diluted earnings per share in the range of $1.35 to $1.40.
Following is additional detail on fourth-quarter 2012 results by segment.
In North America, fourth-quarter sales were $1,416 million, up 2% from the prior-year quarter. Sales grew to manufacturing, energy, and metals markets, partially offset by declines in electronics. Operating profit of $367 million grew 4% from the prior year due to price and productivity.
In Europe, fourth-quarter sales were $363 million, 5% below the prior-year quarter primarily due to the negative impact of currency translation. Operating profit was $60 million in the quarter, as compared to $64 million in the prior-year quarter primarily due to negative currency effects.
In South America, fourth-quarter sales were $484 million, 9% below the prior-year quarter. Operating profit was $92 million as compared to $118 million in the prior-year period. The lower sales and operating profit as compared to the prior year were due primarily to negative currency effects.
Sales in Asia were $374 million in the quarter, up 12% from the prior year, driven by strong volume growth in India, China, and Korea, including new plant start-ups. Sales growth came primarily from metals and chemicals customers. Operating profit was $69 million as compared to $60 million in the prior year, due primarily to higher volumes.
Praxair Surface Technologies had fourth-quarter sales of $162 million, compared to $160 million in the prior-year quarter. Sales grew 3%, excluding negative currency effects, primarily from higher jet-engine and energy coatings. Operating profit increased to $28 million from $24 million in the quarter due primarily to price and productivity.

(a) | Effective with the 2012 first quarter, Praxair changed the measurement of its segment sales and operating profit. These changes primarily relate to helium and specialty gas sales and result in slightly higher sales and operating profit in the Europe and Asia segments with offsetting declines in the North America segment. Prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. See the Investors section of Praxair's website for a summary of the remeasurement adjustments for 2011 and 2010. |

APPENDIX | |
NON-GAAP MEASURES | |
(Millions of dollars, except per share data) | |
The following non-GAAP measures are intended to supplement an understanding of the company’s financial information by providing measures which investors, financial analysts and management use to help evaluate the company’s financing leverage, return on net assets employed and operating performance. Items which the company does not believe to be indicative of on-going business trends are excluded from these calculations so that investors can better evaluate and analyze historical and future business trends on a consistent basis. Definitions of these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similar definitions used by other companies and are not a substitute for similar GAAP measures. Adjusted amounts exclude the impact of the 2012 third-quarter cost reduction program, pension settlement charge, and an income tax benefit; the 2011 fourth-quarter gain on acquisition and cost reduction program; and the 2010 first-quarter loss on Venezuela currency devaluation and the 2010 fourth-quarter loss on the U.S. Homecare divestiture, Spanish income tax settlement and repatriation tax benefit. | |
To be more consistent with the methodology used for annual reporting and to improve comparability, effective in the third quarter 2012 the company changed the methodology that it uses for calculating the following non-GAAP measures: Debt to capital, After-tax ROC, ROE, Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA. These calculations are now based on a rolling four quarters approach for the earnings component of the calculations (NOPAT, Net income- Praxair, Inc., Adjusted EBITDA) and a five quarter average for the balance sheet component of the calculation (capital, equity, debt). In addition, the company decided to use net debt instead of debt in the new calculations. Net debt is defined as debt less cash and cash equivalents. Prior-period amounts have been adjusted to conform to the current methodology. |
