“Third quarter sales were slightly below expectations,” reported Wolfgang Dangel, Sun's President and CEO. “Overall, global demand declined 6% due to persistent headwinds. Sluggish end markets continued to strain demand in the Americas and Europe as both experienced a 10% decline, while Asia Pacific remained a bright spot, up more than 12% for the quarter. Our sales and marketing investments in this region are having significant influence on our ability to win new customers and expand our market share. A strong U.S dollar adversely affected EPS by $0.02; however it was still within our expected range.”
“Coming out of Q3, October order rates are encouraging,” added Dangel. “Leading indicators are supportive of positive momentum in 2017. We remain focused on exceeding customer expectations, growing our global presence, and delivering strong financial results. Operationally, lean initiatives are taking shape and will drive profitability once fully implemented. Sales and marketing efforts are ramping up regionally providing us with better opportunities to address our customers’ needs and drive growth.”
Dangel continued, “Over the last year we have been further developing and refining the strategic vision of the Company. Our long term vision is focused on growth and reaching critical mass of $1 billion in sales by 2025. We expect half to be organic and the remainder to be derived from acquisitions within the industrial goods sector. All growth initiatives are intended to preserve Sun’s history of superior profitability and financial strength.”
“Acting on our long-term vision, earlier today we announced our intent to acquire Enovation Controls’ Vehicle Technology and Power Controls lines of business,” stated Dangel (11/7/16 Press Release). “We are excited about acquiring this innovative and highly successful company. Like Sun, Enovation designs and manufactures premium products for systems requiring superior performance and reliability. Enovation’s electronic controls provide a valuable diversification to Sun’s historical markets.”
Concluding, Dangel remarked, “We have our eye on 2017 and the opportunities we see for growth both organically and through acquisition. The initiatives we started this year will continue into next year and drive our effort to take market share and create new opportunities for our products. Our focus remains on creating lasting value for all of Sun’s stakeholders.”
Outlook
Please note: Fourth quarter estimates exclude any impact related to financial consolidation for the acquisition of Enovation Controls.
Fourth quarter 2016 revenues are expected to be approximately $46 million, up 4% from the fourth quarter of 2015. Earnings per share are estimated to be $0.13 to $0.15, compared to $0.19 in the same period a year ago, and contains several non-recurring items noted below which will decrease EPS for Q4 2016.
|
|
• |
M&A activity expenses, including professional fees associated with the acquisition of Enovation Controls of approximately $0.05. |
|
|
• |
Global sales and marketing expenses of approximately $0.02. |
|
|
• |
CEO transition expenses of approximately $0.01 (transition costs will continue to reduce earnings through the first quarter of 2017). |
|
|
• |
Currency is not expected to have a substantial impact on earnings per share in fourth quarter estimates. |
For the year, revenues are expected to be approximately $193 million, down 4% from the prior year. Earnings per share are estimated to be $0.88 to $0.90 compared to earnings per share of $1.24 in the prior year.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This presentation and oral statements made by management in connection herewith that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such statements. They include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations, estimates or projections of the Company, its Directors or its Officers about the Company and the industry in which it operates, and assumptions made by management, and include among other items, (i) the Company’s strategies regarding growth, including its intention to develop new products and make acquisitions; (ii) the Company’s financing plans; (iii) trends affecting the Company’s financial condition or results of operations; (iv) the Company’s ability to continue to control costs and to meet its liquidity and other financing needs; (v) the declaration and payment of dividends; and (vi) the Company’s ability to respond to changes in customer demand domestically and internationally, including as a result of standardization. Although the Company believes that its expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that the anticipated results will occur.
Important factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include, among other items, (i) the economic cyclicality of the capital goods industry in general and the hydraulic valve and manifold industry in particular, which directly affect customer orders, lead times and sales volume; (ii) fluctuations in global business conditions, including the impact of economic recessions in the U.S. and other parts of the world, (iii) conditions in the capital markets, including the interest rate environment and the availability of capital; (iv) changes in the competitive marketplace that could affect the Company’s revenue and/or costs, such as increased competition, lack of qualified engineering, marketing, management or other personnel, and increased labor and raw materials costs; (v) risks related to the integration of the businesses of the Company and Enovation Controls; (vi) changes in technology or customer requirements, such as standardization of the cavity into which screw-in cartridge valves must fit, which could render the Company’s products or technologies noncompetitive or obsolete; (vii) new product introductions, product sales mix and the geographic mix of sales nationally and internationally; and (viii) changes relating to the Company’s international sales, including changes in regulatory requirements or tariffs, trade or currency restrictions, fluctuations in exchange rates, and tax and collection issues.
