Fortive Reports Second Quarter 2018 Results
EVERETT, WA, July 26, 2018 - Fortive Corporation (“Fortive”) (NYSE: FTV) today announced results for the second quarter 2018.
For the second quarter ended June 29, 2018, net earnings were $295.0 million. For the same period, adjusted net earnings were $321.7 million. Diluted net earnings per share for the second quarter ended June 29, 2018 were $0.83. For the same period, adjusted diluted net earnings per share were $0.91.
For the second quarter of 2018, revenues increased 13.9% year-over-year to $1.9 billion, with core revenue growth of 5.3%.
James A. Lico, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Today we reported another quarter of double-digit adjusted earnings and sales growth and strong free cash flow performance. As we look to the second half of the year, we expect our core growth rate to accelerate versus the first half driven by improving order trends and as acquisitions of Orpak, ISC, and Landauer become part of our core revenue.”
For the third quarter of 2018, Fortive anticipates diluted net earnings per share to be in the range of $0.73 to $0.77 and adjusted diluted net earnings per share to be in the range of $0.83 to $0.87. For the full year 2018, Fortive expects diluted net earnings per share to be in the range of $3.02 to $3.10, which includes anticipated transaction costs related to the Automation & Specialty businesses divestiture and the Advanced Sterilization Products acquisition of $0.05 per share and $0.11 per share for the third quarter and fourth quarter of 2018, respectively. For the full year 2018, Fortive expects adjusted diluted net earnings per share to be in the range of $3.42 to $3.50. The updated guidance reflects a full-year $0.08 dilutive impact from the mandatory convertible preferred stock offering which Fortive expects to offset with operational improvements.
Mr. Lico added, “Since last quarter, we announced two acquisitions totaling $3.5 billion and significantly advanced our portfolio enhancement work to accelerate growth and reduce cyclicality. With our strong free cash flow generation and balance sheet, we are well-positioned to continue deploying capital towards M&A. The power of the Fortive Business System coupled with our portfolio transformation positions us well for the remainder of 2018 and beyond.”
Fortive will discuss results and outlook during its quarterly investor conference call today starting at 5:30 p.m. ET. The call and an accompanying slide presentation will be webcast on the “Investors” section of the website, www.fortive.com, under “Events & Presentations.” A replay of the webcast will be available at the same location shortly after the conclusion of the presentation and will remain available until the next quarterly earnings call.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), this earnings release also references “adjusted net earnings,” “adjusted diluted net earnings per share,” and “core revenue,” which are non-GAAP financial measures.

The non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the GAAP financial measures, but should instead be read in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures. The non-GAAP financial measures used by Fortive in this release may be different from similarly-titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
AND OTHER INFORMATION
Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings per Share
We disclose the non-GAAP measures of historical adjusted net earnings and historical and forecasted adjusted diluted net earnings per share, which make the following adjustments to GAAP net earnings and GAAP diluted net earnings per share:
• | Excluding on a pretax basis amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets; |
• | Excluding on a pretax basis both acquisition and divestiture-related costs deemed significant (“Transaction Costs”); and |
• | Excluding the tax effect of the adjustments noted above. The tax effect of such adjustments was calculated by applying our overall estimated effective tax rate to the pretax amount of each adjustment (unless the nature of the item and/or the tax jurisdiction in which the item has been recorded requires application of a specific tax rate or tax treatment, in which case the tax effect of such item is estimated by applying such specific tax rate or tax treatment). We expect to apply our overall estimated effective tax rate to each adjustment going forward, and, as such, we are applying the estimated effective tax rate to each adjustment for the forecasted periods to facilitate comparisons in future periods; and |
• | Excluding adjustments made to the 2017 provisional amount estimated in connection with the Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the “TCJA Adjustments”). |
If any additional subsequent TCJA Adjustments are made in 2018, such adjustments will be reflected in the applicable GAAP financial measures corresponding to the reporting period during which such adjustments are determined. In the event of such subsequent TCJA Adjustments, we will also exclude such adjustments in the non-GAAP historical adjusted net earnings and historical adjusted diluted net earnings per share we disclose for the corresponding period.
While we have a history of acquisition activity, we do not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and the amount of an acquisition’s purchase price allocated to intangible assets and related amortization term are unique to each acquisition and can vary significantly from acquisition to acquisition. We believe however that it is important for investors to understand that such intangible assets contribute to revenue generation and that intangible assets related to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized.
The forecasted adjusted diluted net earnings per share does not reflect certain adjustments that are inherently difficult to predict or estimate due to their unknown timing, effect and/or significance.
The TCJA Adjustments identified above have been excluded from the GAAP measures identified above because items of this nature and/or size occur with inconsistent frequency or occur for reasons that may be unrelated to our commercial performance during the period and/or because we believe the corresponding adjustments are useful in assessing our potential ongoing operating costs or gains in a given period. We will adjust for, and identify as significant, acquisition and divestiture-related transaction costs, acquisition related fair value adjustments to inventory and deferred revenue, and corresponding restructuring charges primarily related to acquisitions, in each case, incurred in a given period, if we determine that such costs
6
and adjustments exceed the range of our typical transaction costs and adjustments, respectively, in a given period.
Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors by reflecting additional ways of viewing aspects of our operations that, when reconciled to the corresponding GAAP measure, help our investors to understand the long-term profitability trends of our business, and facilitate comparisons of our profitability to prior and future periods and to our peers.
These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for or superior to, the comparable GAAP measures, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Core Revenue
We use the term “core revenue” when referring to a corresponding GAAP revenue measure, excluding (1) the impact from acquired businesses and (2), the impact of currency translation. References to sales attributable to acquisitions or acquired businesses refer to GAAP sales from acquired businesses recorded prior to the first anniversary of the acquisition less the amount of sales attributable to certain divested businesses or product lines not considered discontinued operations prior to the first anniversary of the divestiture. The portion of sales attributable to the impact of currency translation is calculated as the difference between (a) the period-to-period change in sales (excluding sales impact from acquired businesses) and (b) the period-to-period change in sales (excluding sales impact from acquired businesses) after applying the current period foreign exchange rates to the prior year period. This non-GAAP measure should be considered in addition to, and not as a replacement for or superior to, the comparable GAAP measure, and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Management believes that this non-GAAP measure provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying growth trends in our business and facilitating comparisons of our revenue performance with prior and future periods and to our peers. We exclude the effect of acquisitions and divestiture related items because the nature, size and number of such transactions can vary dramatically from period to period and between us and our peers. We exclude the effect of currency translation from sales measures because currency translation is not under management’s control and is subject to volatility. We believe that such exclusions, when presented with the corresponding GAAP measures, may assist in assessing the business trends and making comparisons of long-term performance.
