Key financial results for the second quarter 2017 included:

  • Total net sales of $869.2 million increased 3.6% from the prior year and included a negative 0.7% foreign currency translation impact and a negative 0.5% divestiture impact. The result was a positive organic sales growth rate of 4.8%.

  • Effective tax rate of 21.6% impacted by restructuring and related costs.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities was $98.4 million and capital expenditures totaled $16.7 million, resulting in free cash flow of $81.7 million or 154.2% of net income.
  • The Company paid down $70.3 million of debt and repurchased $21.0 million of common stock.

Second quarter 2017 segment results versus the prior year second quarter included:

  • Commercial and Industrial Systems Segment net sales were $407.4 million, an increase of 3.2%. Foreign currency had a negative 1.1% translation impact. The result was a positive organic sales growth rate of 4.3% driven by strength in Asia, oil & gas and commercial HVAC. Operating margin was 5.1%. Excluding a net $6.6 million in restructuring and related costs and the gain on sale of assets, adjusted operating margin was 6.7%. Restructuring and related costs included $3.9 million resulting from the exit of a non-core business.
  • Climate Solutions Segment net sales were $270.5 million, an increase of 6.3%. Foreign currency had a negative 0.2% translation impact. The result was a positive organic sales growth rate of 6.5% driven by growth in North American residential HVAC partially offset by weakness in commercial refrigeration. Operating margin was 14.9%. Excluding restructuring and related costs of $0.6 million, adjusted operating margin was 15.1%.
  • Power Transmission Solutions Segment net sales were $191.3 million, an increase of 1.0%. Foreign currency had a negative 0.5% translation impact. Our June 2016 Mastergear divestiture resulted in a negative 2.0% impact. The result was a positive organic sales growth rate of 3.5% driven by improved oil & gas and renewable energy end market demand. Operating margin was 11.6%. Excluding restructuring and related costs of $0.2 million, adjusted operating margin was 11.7%.

*This earnings release includes non-GAAP financial measures.  Descriptions of why we believe these non-GAAP measures are useful and reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included with this earnings release.
