Regal Beloit Corporation Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2012 Financial Results
• | Strong Free Cash Flow in Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2012 |
• | Fourth Quarter 2012 Diluted Earnings per Share In Line With Guidance |
• | 2012 Record Sales and Diluted Earnings per Share |
BELOIT, WI - Regal Beloit Corporation (NYSE: RBC) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal 2012. Net sales for the fourth quarter 2012 were $715.6 million compared to $727.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. Diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter 2012 were $0.70 compared to $0.80 for the fourth quarter of 2011. Net sales for fiscal 2012 were a record $3,166.9 million compared to $2,808.3 million in 2011. Diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2012 were a record $4.64 compared to $3.79 in 2011.
“2012 was a record year for Regal in revenues and earnings,” commented Mark Gliebe, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “As anticipated, the fourth quarter sales environment was challenging. However, our team delivered and we achieved results consistent with our most recent guidance. Our residential HVAC business was up slightly and we experienced strong growth at Unico while sales in most of our other businesses around the world slowed in the fourth quarter. We continued our progress in achieving synergy savings, and we delivered another quarter of strong free cash flow of 175% of net income.”

In line with earlier guidance, the effective tax rate for the fourth quarter 2012 was 15.6% compared to 30.4% for the fourth quarter 2011. The decrease was driven primarily by completion of the tax integration of the EPC acquisition. For fiscal 2012 the effective tax rate was 25.8% compared to 30.2% for fiscal 2011. The decrease was driven by the completion of the tax integration of the EPC acquisition and the third quarter qualification in China for a high technology tax incentive that resulted in a retroactive benefit of $2.3 million.
Interest expense was up slightly compared to the fourth quarter 2011. Fiscal 2012 interest expense was $13.4 million greater than 2011 as a result of increased borrowings to finance the EPC acquisition.
For the fourth quarter 2012, cash provided by operating activities was $75.5 million. For fiscal 2012, net cash provided by operating activities was $351.7 million. Fiscal 2012 capital expenditures were $91.0 million including the completion of two factories in China partially offset by $8.7 million of government grants. Cash on hand at December 29, 2012 was $375.3 million an increase of $232.7 million from year end 2011 primarily resulting from the proceeds of our December 2012 common stock offering and
continued strong cash flow. For the fourth quarter 2012, free cash flow represented 174.6% of net income and 137.7% of net income for fiscal 2012.
“As we start 2013, we are cautiously optimistic about what we are seeing in a number of key markets. We expect diluted earnings per share for the first quarter 2013 of $1.08 to $1.16 per share. Adding back $0.04 of restructuring charges and deducting $0.02 of tax benefits, our adjusted diluted earnings per share are expected to be $1.10 to $1.18,” continued Mr. Gliebe.

NON-GAAP MEASURES
Unaudited
(Dollars in Millions Except Per Share Data)
We prepare financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP). We also disclose adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS), adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross profit as a percentage of net sales, adjusted income from operations, free cash flow and free cash flow as a percentage of net income attributable to Regal Beloit Corporation (collectively, “non-GAAP financial measures”). We use these measures in our internal performance reporting and for reports to the Board of Directors. We also periodically disclose certain of these measures in our quarterly earnings releases, on investor conference calls, and in investor presentations and similar events. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful measures for providing investors with additional insight into our operating performance. This additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for our results of operations prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant and equipment.
