Worthington Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year Results

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 27, 2013 – Worthington Industries, Inc. (NYSE: WOR) today reported net sales of $704.1 million and net earnings of $33.5 million, or $0.46 per share, for its fiscal 2013 fourth quarter ended May 31, 2013.  In the fourth quarter of the prior year, the Company reported net sales of $755.4 million and net earnings of $52.1 million, or $0.75 per share.

The current quarter included several impairment and restructuring charges totaling $10.8 million, pre-tax.  The most significant were a $4.8 million charge for the write-off of the investment in the 40% owned China metal framing joint venture, a $3.0 million charge for the partial impairment of the Pressure Cylinders investment in its 60% owned consolidated joint venture in India, and a $2.5 million accrual for expected severance associated with the previously announced consolidation of the BernzOmatic hand torch manufacturing operation in Medina, N.Y. into the Company’s Chilton, Wis., facility.  These charges reduced net earnings in the current quarter by $0.14 per share.  In addition, inventory holding losses in the current quarter further reduced earnings by $0.02 per share.

For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2013, the Company reported net earnings of $136.4 million, or $1.91 per share. Net sales were $2,612.2 million, up 3%, or $77.5 million, primarily due to acquisitions, but partially offset by lower average selling prices, which were impacted by the declining market price of steel. Current year earnings were adversely affected by impairment and restructuring charges totaling $13.0 million, pretax, or $0.17 per share.  In the prior year, earnings included $6.2 million of pre-tax restructuring charges, or $0.06 per share.
 
The consolidated results for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

“We had a solid performance this quarter and an excellent fiscal year.  Excluding impairment and restructuring charges, we achieved the highest annual earnings per share in our history,” said John McConnell, Chairman and CEO.  “There was some softening in Steel’s volumes, largely attributable to one tolling customer, but the results were strong from Cylinders as the segment increased sales in retail products and alternative fuels, and found new markets in oil and gas through our acquisitions and product development.  The Engineered Cabs business remained soft and it is focused on improvement through our Transformation and leadership changes.  The joint ventures had a very strong performance this quarter, particularly WAVE, ClarkDietrich and TWB.”

Consolidated Quarterly Results

Net sales for the fourth quarter were $704.1 million, down 7% from the comparable quarter in the prior year, when net sales were $755.4 million. The decrease resulted largely from lower average selling prices, primarily in Steel Processing, which were affected by the declining market price of steel.

Gross margin for the current quarter was $111.1 million, compared to $121.5 million in the prior year quarter. The $10.4 million decrease was primarily the result of lower overall volumes.

SG&A expense increased $6.3 million over the prior year quarter, primarily due to acquisitions.

Operating income for the current quarter was $33.5 million, compared to $59.5 million in the prior year quarter.  This $26.0 million decrease was driven by lower volumes in Steel Processing and Engineered Cabs combined with $7.0 million of impairments and restructuring charges. The current quarter charges include a $5.0 million impairment charge related to the consolidated joint venture in India ($5.0 million represents 100% of the charge, while 40%, or $2.0 million, is eliminated in earnings attributable to non-controlling interests, resulting in a net reduction to earnings of $3.0 million). Severance costs related to the Medina consolidation are expected to be $2.5 million.  These charges are recorded in Pressure Cylinders.

Interest expense was $6.2 million for the current quarter, compared to $5.0 million in the comparable period in the prior year, as the impact of higher average interest rates from an increase in the usage of long-term debt versus short-term debt, more than offset the impact of lower average debt levels.

Unconsolidated joint ventures had net sales totaling $447.0 million and contributed $21.0 million in equity income in the current quarter. This is a $1.2 million decrease from the comparable quarter in the prior year, but the current quarter included a $4.8 million charge for the write-off of the   investment in the China joint venture.  With the exception of the China joint venture, all unconsolidated joint ventures posted positive results, led by WAVE, TWB, and ClarkDietrich, which contributed $15.3 million, $3.7 million, and $2.9 million of equity income, respectively.  The equity income from ClarkDietrich and WAVE exceeded the prior year quarter by $2.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

For the current quarter, income tax expense of $16.7 million was lower than the $23.2 million expense in the prior year quarter.  This was primarily due to lower taxable income.  The current quarter tax expense reflected an effective rate of 33.3% compared to 30.9% for the prior year quarter.  The impairment charges increased the effective tax rate, as a tax benefit was not provided by all of the charges.

Balance Sheet

At quarter end, total debt was $521.1 million, up $82.8 million from February 28, 2013, as the acquisition of the Palmer business raised borrowing needs. As of May 31, 2013, the Company had utilized all of the $100.0 million available under its trade accounts receivable securitization facility, and $8.3 million was drawn on the Company’s $425.0 million revolving credit facility.

Quarterly Segment Results

Steel Processing’s net sales of $374.6 million were down 13%, or $55.0 million, from the prior year quarter.  Lower average selling prices negatively impacted net sales by $30.9 million, and lower direct and toll processing volumes reduced sales by $24.1 million.  The mix of direct versus toll processing tons was 56% to 44% this quarter, compared with 53% to 47% in the comparable quarter of the prior year.  Operating income decreased $13.2 million due to the lower volumes, and the negative impact of inventory holding losses compared to gains in the prior year quarter. The prior year quarter also included a $2.1 million gain from the sale of the Vonore, Tenn. facility.  These decreases were partially offset by lower operating expenses.

Pressure Cylinders’ net sales of $252.3 million were up 7%, or $15.5 million, from the comparable prior year quarter aided by the acquisitions of Westerman and Palmer.  Pressure Cylinders’
operating income was $16.4 million, down $5.4 million from the prior year quarter.  The decrease was driven by the $5.0 million impairment charge related to the consolidated joint venture in India and the $2.5 million severance charges for Medina.  Excluding these items, operating income was up due to the impact of acquisitions.

Engineered Cabs generated net sales of $55.1 million in the current quarter and reported an operating loss of $1.2 million. These results were impacted by lower volumes from its largest customer, which had lower demand and experienced production delays during the quarter.

The “Other” category includes the Construction Services, Energy Innovations and Steel Packaging operating segments, as well as other non-allocated expenses.  Operations in this category reported net sales of $22.0 million, which were down $2.9 million compared to the prior year quarter.  These operations reported a combined loss of $1.0 million for the quarter compared to $1.1 million in the prior year quarter.

·  
On June 21, 2013, the Company announced the consolidation of BernzOmatic hand torch manufacturing operations in Medina, N.Y. into its existing facility in Chilton, Wis.  The Company estimates that the consolidation and closure will result in one-time restructuring charges in the range of $4.0 million to $5.0 million, primarily due to severance costs, relocation and equipment installation, training costs and other miscellaneous start-up costs.
 
·  
On June 26, 2013, the board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share, an increase of $0.02 per share from the prior quarter.  The dividend is payable on September 27, 2013 to shareholders of record September 13, 2013.
 
Outlook

“Our outlook remains positive.  We are positioned for growth both organically and from our acquisitions,” said McConnell.  “We enter the new fiscal year with a solid strategy focused on continuing to deliver strong results with a dedicated management team and workforce.  There is continued strength in automotive with shortened or eliminated summer shutdowns and we anticipate some improvement in commercial construction.  Our Cylinders business has nicely integrated its two recently acquired businesses in the oil and gas tank market.  We believe that Engineered Cabs is a good business that will benefit this year from the full implementation of the Transformation to optimize and improve operations.”
