• | First quarter net sales decreased 13.6% (a decrease of 12.3% organically) to $911.1 million |

ANNAPOLIS JUNCTION, MD - April 23, 2015 - Colfax Corporation (NYSE: CFX), a leading global manufacturer of gas- and fluid-handling and fabrication technology products and services, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 27, 2015.
For the first quarter of 2015, net income was $52.1 million, or $0.42 per dilutive share, compared to net income of $24.9 million for the first quarter of 2014, or $0.22 per dilutive share. Adjusted net income (as defined below) was $44.5 million, or $0.36 per share, compared to $51.6 million for the first quarter of 2014, or $0.43 per share.
Net sales were $911.1 million in the first quarter, a decrease of 13.6% from the prior year. Net sales decreased 12.3% organically compared to the first quarter of 2014. First quarter operating income was $77.5 million, with adjusted operating income (as defined below) of $81.2 million, a decrease of 13.7%.
First quarter gas- and fluid-handling orders decreased by 23.4% to $446.9 million compared to orders of $583.4 million for the first quarter of 2014, an organic order decrease of 14.5%. Gas- and fluid-handling finished the period with backlog of $1,350.9 million.
Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted operating income, organic sales decrease and organic order decrease are not financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“GAAP”). See below for a description of the measures' usefulness and a reconciliation of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
Steve Simms, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "First quarter results were largely in line with expectations. Margins were strong in both segments, demonstrating improved operational execution given the low volumes. We were also pleased with our strengthened balance sheet and improved credit profile. Orders in our gas- and fluid-handing segment were, as expected, down as we are at the bottom of the environmental remediation cycle and comparing to a very strong 2014 first quarter. Although our end markets remain challenging, we expect more typical order levels in the second quarter."
Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Adjustments
Colfax has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, adjusted operating income, organic sales decrease and organic order decrease. Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share and adjusted operating income exclude restructuring and other related charges. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share for the first quarter of 2014 exclude the preferred stock conversion inducement payment. The effective tax rates used to calculate adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are 29.5% and 27.0% for the first quarters of 2015 and 2014, respectively. Organic sales decrease and organic order decrease exclude the impact of acquisitions and foreign exchange rate fluctuations. These non-GAAP financial measures assist Colfax in comparing its operating performance on a consistent basis because, among other things, they remove the impact of restructuring and other related charges and the preferred stock conversion inducement payment.
Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information calculated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures presented above to GAAP results has been provided in the financial tables included in this press release.
