MINNEAPOLIS, July 29, 2010 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ --
Pentair, Inc. (NYSE: PNR) today reported second quarter 2010 revenue of $796 million and net income from continuing operations attributable to Pentair, Inc. of $60 million, or $0.61 per share. This represents an increase of 85 percent as compared to the $0.33 of EPS in the second quarter last year. Adjusting second quarter 2009 for restructuring items, year-over-year adjusted EPS increased 61 percent.
Total company sales increased 15 percent to $796 million, compared with $694 million in the second quarter of 2009. Both Water and Technical Products posted double-digit sales gains, and growth was broad-based across end-markets served. The company delivered second quarter operating income of $100 million, up 58 percent year-over-year or up 51 percent compared to adjusted second quarter 2009 operating income. Overall, operating margins for the second quarter increased 300 basis points to 12.6 percent when compared to adjusted second quarter 2009 operating margins, driven by revenue growth and operational productivity.
The company generated strong free cash flow of $150 million for the quarter, with year-to-date free cash flow performance of $128 million, which is $29 million greater than the first half of 2009. The company said it is on track to achieve free cash flow of greater than $225 million for full year 2010.
"I am pleased with our second quarter performance, as strong execution of growth and productivity initiatives, along with improvement in market trends, enabled us to deliver double digit revenue gains and robust earnings growth. Pentair's strong market execution, innovation and growth in the U.S., Europe and China led the way in both Water and Technical Products," said Randall J. Hogan, Pentair chairman and chief executive officer.
"Our lean cost structure and continued productivity efforts enabled us to significantly expand operating margins, while making continued incremental growth investments in product and market innovation," Hogan continued. "Our strong second quarter performance underscores the strength of our brands, channels and geographies, as well as our focused execution."
SECOND QUARTER BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
Water delivered $549 million in sales, a 13 percent increase year-over-year. Foreign exchange was neutral to revenue in the quarter.
- Residential Flow sales were up 4 percent versus the year-ago quarter, reflecting share gains in the professional pump channel and strength in the agricultural business.
- Residential Filtration sales were up 7 percent as fast growth regions increased double digits, while the U.S. market continued its modest recovery.
- Pool sales were up 31 percent as the business continued to gain share with an expanded dealer base and healthy demand for energy-efficient Eco-Select products.
- Engineered Flow sales were up 14 percent driven by strong municipal sales, while North American commercial water systems remained down, reflecting a weak commercial construction market.
- Filtration Solutions sales were up 8 percent led by strong sales in Food Service along with growth in global systems in China and India, which helped offset timing delays of larger municipal project sales.
Water's second quarter reported operating income totaled $76 million, up 53 percent as compared to $50 million in the same period last year. When compared to second quarter 2009 adjusted operating income of $51 million, second quarter 2010 operating margins increased by 330 basis points to 13.8 percent. The benefits from higher volumes, modest pricing and strong productivity more than offset increased costs related to material inflation, reinstated employee benefits and growth investments.
Technical Products delivered second quarter 2010 sales of $247 million, an increase of 19 percent versus the year-earlier period. Sales grew 20 percent, excluding the impact of foreign exchange, driven by solid demand across all key markets and increased pricing of approximately 1 percentage point.
- Industrial, general electronics, energy and infrastructure all posted strong double digit sales, with modest growth in communications and commercial markets.
- The U.S. and Western European geographies grew in the mid-teens, while emerging markets were up over 36 percent in total, led by robust growth in China.
Technical Products' second quarter reported operating income totaled $38 million, up 61 percent compared to $24 million in the same quarter last year. When compared to second quarter 2009 adjusted operating income of $25 million, second quarter 2010 operating margins increased 340 basis points to 15.4 percent. Higher volumes, increased pricing and continued productivity more than offset the negative impact from inflation, reinstated employee benefits, costs related to the completion of all previously announced plant closures, and growth investments.
OUTLOOK
The company provided its third quarter 2010 EPS guidance of $0.49 to $0.52, an increase of 17 to 24 percent year-over-year when compared to adjusted third quarter 2009 earnings. The company expects third quarter sales to be up over 10 percent compared to the same period last year.
The company updated its full year 2010 EPS guidance to a range of $1.86 to $1.96, an increase of 27 to 33 percent versus full year 2009 adjusted EPS. Full year 2010 sales are expected to be around $2.95 billion and full year free cash flow is expected to be greater than $225 million.
"Our raised full year 2010 guidance reflects our strong first half performance and a balanced market view for the remainder of the year," said Hogan. "We have a strong portfolio of products and systems today, along with an aligned global business structure with prioritized growth and productivity initiatives that we believe are yielding positive results and positioning us for accelerating performance in our served markets," he added.
