EXECUTIVE COMMENTARY

"Our Sensors business continued its strong performance with its fifth consecutive quarter of double-digit revenue growth, gross margin above 50% and an increase in operating margin," stated Dr. Jeff Graves, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our comprehensive Sensors product portfolio and the expanded ability to support customers worldwide provides us with the confidence that our Sensors business will continue its momentum, especially as factory automation, defense programs and industrial markets drive robust demand for our products across our entire Sensors portfolio."

"Our Test business continued to navigate a dynamic and volatile auto industry as rapid technological advances in electric, autonomous and automated driver assistance vehicles continued to affect the timing of many of our Test projects," stated Dr. Graves. "While revenues from backlog conversion were lower than our initial estimates and impacted Test profitability in the quarter, strong order growth of 17% year-over-year, driven by both our ground vehicles and materials Test sectors, has us positioned well with our leading technology and product offerings that meet the precision, durability and reliability requirements of our customers. This order growth translated to a strong increase in backlog, which ended the quarter at $326 million. Despite a strong orders profile in the third quarter, we expect continued volatility in the near-term order patterns, specifically relating to the auto industry durability testing market."

HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE 2018 THIRD FISCAL QUARTER

Revenue
Revenue was $194.7 million, up 0.5% compared to the same quarter in the prior year, driven primarily by a 13.8% increase in our Sensors business, partially offset by lower equipment and service volume in the ground vehicles sector of our Test business. Our Sensors business had good momentum and sustained broad demand across almost all Sensors sectors.

Orders
Test orders for the quarter were $140.2 million, a sequential 33.3% increase over the second quarter of fiscal year 2018 and a 17.2% increase compared to the same prior-year period. The overall increase from the prior year reflects a timely focused demand for core products across all geographies in the ground vehicles Test sector despite variability in timing of order execution as customers continue to shift timing of their testing projects. Orders for materials Test systems and Test services were again strong, driven by growth in new advanced materials and additive manufacturing. The increase was partially offset by anticipated lower orders in structures driven by reduced near-term investments and government funding. The Test opportunity pipeline remains robust at $1.0 billion in opportunities over the next 12 months; however, anticipated order timing continues to be volatile, specifically in our ground vehicles sector. Test ended the quarter with a backlog of $326.3 million, a 9.0% increase sequentially from the second quarter of fiscal year 2018.

Sensors orders for the quarter were $78.9 million, representing a 6.4% sequential decline compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2018. This reflects normalization of orders in the third quarter as Sensors experienced record orders in the second quarter of fiscal year 2018. Moving forward we expect continued strength in Sensors orders, driven by broad demand across all industrial and test markets worldwide, and expanded opportunities with the U.S. Department of Defense systems. Sensors backlog at quarter end was $51.4 million, a 2.8% decrease sequentially from the second quarter of fiscal year 2018.

Earnings Before Taxes
Earnings before taxes totaled $10.0 million, up 25.8% compared to the same prior-year period. The increase was mainly driven by the strong Sensors revenue growth, along with the non-recurrence of several costs from the prior year quarter, including acquisition integration expenses, acquisition inventory fair value adjustment, and the expenses related to our investigation of code of conduct violations within our China Test operations. Partially offsetting the growth was a decline in the Test gross margin, driven by lower revenue and product mix.

Diluted Earnings Per Share
Diluted earnings per share was $0.47 compared to $0.55 in the same prior-year period on net income of $9.0 million and $10.6 million, respectively. Results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2018 included an increase in the effective tax rate as a result of certain prior year discrete tax benefits and higher operating expenses resulting from continued product investment in our Sensors business.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA grew to $27.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2018, up 0.9% sequentially from the second quarter of fiscal year 2018. Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.0 million, or 3.9%, from the third quarter of fiscal year 2017 primarily due to strong Sensors revenue growth, partially offset by a decline in Test revenue. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is provided in Exhibit D of this earnings release.

Capital Structure
We continued to execute on our plan to strengthen our balance sheet by reducing our debt for the seventh consecutive quarter. This included debt payments of $20 million during the quarter, $16 million of which was in excess of our mandatory repayment requirements. We believe our ability to repatriate cash to the United States on favorable terms as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act will continue to accelerate our deleveraging efforts in the future.

Dividend
The Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.30 per share. The dividend was payable on July 6, 2018 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 22, 2018. This was our 146th consecutive quarterly dividend.

China Restructuring
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2018, we announced workforce reductions and manufacturing facility closures in our Test segment corresponding to the transfer of production operations in China to a contract manufacturing partner. These changes are designed to increase organizational effectiveness, gain manufacturing efficiencies, provide cost savings that can be reinvested in growth initiatives and reduce the compliance risk profile of our operations located in China. This action will impact two China Test manufacturing facilities with no changes anticipated in the United States or European operations from this transfer.

We continue to progress on this action and anticipate the transition to contract manufacturing will be completed in fiscal year 2019. The entire restructuring program, which includes the change in operating model to a contract manufacturer, is expected to yield future annualized savings of approximately $5.0 million to $10.0 million. We expect these savings to start in the second half of fiscal year 2019.

OUTLOOK

Test Business
Despite the substantial increase in orders during the third quarter, we expect the Test business to report an overall decline in revenue and earnings for the full fiscal year 2018. Test revenue continues to be impacted by higher custom project backlog weighting which takes longer to convert to revenue and generally at a lower gross margin, supplemented with lower order volumes during the first half of fiscal year 2018. Our guidance has been revised to reflect the impact of the lower revenues and earnings in Test.

Overall, the demand outlook in Test over the next few years remains positive. We believe this demand will be driven heavily by the increased use of additive manufacturing and composites in the materials sector, the requirement for durability testing in the automotive industry as new car types continue to be developed with the rapidly changing landscape in autonomy and electrification of vehicles, and by continued strong growth in our Test services activities. However, we believe volatility in the ground vehicles sector will continue to affect our near-term results for the foreseeable future. In addition, investments targeted specifically at operational efficiency initiatives and new products will continue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 given the outlook for Test demand over the next few years. Given these short-term challenges, we will be evaluating and implementing more aggressive cost reduction initiatives that can positively impact our performance during this period of volatility.

Sensors Business
Strong demand in the Sensors business is anticipated to continue in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018 across all sectors, driven by new products across all major markets and geographies. Continued realization of synergies, related to both operational efficiencies and revenue growth, is expected over the next several years as a result of integration efforts being substantially complete. This combination of positive factors is expected to yield strong, double-digit top line growth, along with gross margin and Adjusted EBITDA expansion for the Sensors business in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018.

Consolidated
Based on these factors, we updated our expected outlook for fiscal year 2018 which includes the following:
Metric
 
Current Outlook
 
Previous Outlook
Revenue
 
$775 million to $785 million
 
$780 million to $820 million
Adjusted EBITDA
 
$112 million to $118 million
 
$120 million to $140 million
Diluted earnings per share
 
$3.25 to $3.35
 
$3.55 to $3.85

Our diluted earnings per share reflects the adoption of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and restructuring charges of approximately $2.0 million primarily related to the restructuring of our Test operations in China. We anticipate our effective tax rate, excluding discrete tax items, to be 15-18% in fiscal year 2018.

A reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is included in Exhibit E of this earnings release.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

We believe that disclosing adjusted diluted earnings per share, which is diluted earnings per share excluding the impact from restructuring, acquisition integration expenses, acquisition inventory fair value adjustment, China investigation expenses and acquisition-related expenses is useful to investors as a measure of operating performance. We use this as one measure to monitor and evaluate operating performance. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a financial measure that does not reflect United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). We calculate this measure by adding back the after-tax effect of the restructuring expenses, acquisition integration expenses, acquisition inventory fair value adjustment, China investigation expenses and acquisition-related expenses to net income and dividing the result by the diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

We believe that disclosing earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and EBITDA excluding the impact from stock-based compensation, restructuring expenses, acquisition integration expenses, acquisition inventory fair value adjustment and China investigation expenses (Adjusted EBITDA) is useful to investors as a measure of leverage and operating performance. We use these measures to monitor and evaluate leverage and operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are financial measures that do not reflect GAAP. We calculate EBITDA by adding back interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization expense to net income. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adding back stock-based compensation, restructuring expenses, acquisition integration expenses, acquisition inventory fair value adjustment and China investigation expenses to EBITDA.

Investors should consider these non-GAAP financial measures in addition to, not as a substitute for or better than, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of the components of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in Exhibits B, C, D and E of this earnings release.
