ITW Reports Third Quarter 2014 Financial Results

*Q3 diluted EPS from continuing operations of $1.28 up 42 percent
*Record operating margins of 20.9 percent up 190 basis points versus year-ago period; Enterprise initiatives contribute 120 basis points
*Organic revenues grow 3.5 percent
*Company raises full-year EPS guidance to $4.61 at midpoint, a 27 percent increase versus 2013

GLENVIEW, ILLINOIS-October 21, 2014-Illinois Tool Works Inc. (NYSE: ITW) today reported third quarter 2014 earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations of $1.28, 42 percent higher than the year-ago period. The strong growth in EPS was due to ongoing contributions from enterprise initiatives, solid organic revenue growth, and continuing share repurchase activity.
Key highlights for the 2014 third quarter financial results versus the year-ago period include:
*Total revenues grew 3.5 percent to $3.7 billion and operating income increased 14 percent to $772 million, the highest quarterly operating income total in the Company’s history. Organic revenues grew 3.5 percent, with North American and international growth of 4 percent and 3 percent, respectively. In North America, organic revenue growth was driven by strength in the automotive OEM, food equipment, welding, and test and measurement businesses. Internationally, European organic revenues increased 3 percent and Asia Pacific grew 5 percent. As expected, ongoing product line simplification activities associated with the portfolio management component of ITW’s enterprise strategy reduced organic revenue growth by approximately 1 percent in the quarter.
*Record operating margins of 20.9 percent increased 190 basis points, with enterprise initiatives contributing 120 basis points. All segments produced operating margin improvement, with five segments growing operating margins by more than 200 basis points.
*After-tax Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) of 20.1 percent increased 250 basis points.
Third quarter segment highlights versus the year-ago period include:
*Automotive OEM organic revenue growth of 8 percent outpaced third quarter worldwide auto builds of 2 percent. Organic revenues grew 9 percent in Europe, 8 percent in North America and 12 percent in China. Operating margins of 23.4 percent increased 230 basis points.
*Food Equipment’s organic revenues increased 5 percent due to across-the-board growth in equipment and service worldwide. Operating margins of 23.1 percent increased 320 basis points.
*Welding’s organic revenues grew 5 percent, with North America increasing 10 percent due to strength in equipment sales to industrial and commercial customers. Operating margins of 26.2 percent increased 80 basis points.
“ITW had a strong third quarter with solid organic revenue growth, operating margins hitting record levels, EPS increasing more than 40 percent, and after tax return on invested capital exceeding 20 percent,” said Scott Santi, president and chief executive officer. “These results reflect the continued progress in the execution of our enterprise strategy as we position ITW for solid organic growth with best-in-class margins and returns. Looking





ahead, we are raising full year guidance as we expect operating margins of approximately 20 percent and EPS to increase by more than 25 percent. The ITW operating team continues to execute at a high level, and we thank all of our people around the world for their dedication and ongoing contributions to our progress.”
The Company is raising its full-year EPS guidance range to $4.57 to $4.65 from $4.50 to $4.62. For the 2014 fourth quarter, the Company is forecasting EPS to be in a range of $1.07 to $1.15, on 2 to 3 percent organic revenue growth. Total revenue growth in the fourth quarter is projected to be flat due to currency translation effects.
