Snap-on Announces Third Quarter 2016 Results

Diluted EPS of $2.22 increases 12.1%;

Operating earnings before financial services of 18.9% of sales up 140 basis points;

Reported net sales up 1.5%; Organic net sales up 2.6%

KENOSHA, Wis.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 20, 2016--Snap-on Incorporated (NYSE: SNA), a leading global innovator, manufacturer and marketer of tools, equipment, diagnostics, repair information and systems solutions for professional users performing critical tasks, today announced operating results for the third quarter of 2016.
Net sales of $834.1 million increased $12.6 million, or 1.5%, from 2015 levels; excluding $9.7 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation and $1.1 million of acquisition-related sales, organic sales increased $21.2 million or 2.6%. (See “Non-GAAP Measures” below for a definition of, and further information on, organic sales.)
Operating earnings before financial services of $157.6 million increased 140 basis points to 18.9% of sales as compared to $143.6 million, or 17.5% of sales, last year.
Financial services operating earnings of $50.6 million increased $7.1 million, or 16.3%, from 2015 levels; financial services revenue of $71.6 million increased 17.2% from 2015 levels.
Consolidated operating earnings of $208.2 million improved to 23.0% of revenues (net sales plus financial services revenue) as compared to $187.1 million, or 21.2% of revenues, last year.
The third quarter effective income tax rate was 31.2% in 2016 and 31.6% in 2015.
Net earnings of $131.7 million, or $2.22 per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $116.8 million, or $1.98 per diluted share, a year ago.

“We believe Snap-on’s third quarter results, including a 12.1% increase in diluted earnings per share and continued growth in organic sales, confirm our success in serving serious professionals performing critical tasks and in leveraging our Snap-on Value Creation Processes,” said Nick Pinchuk, Snap-on chairman and chief executive officer. “The 140 basis point improvement in operating margin before financial services reflects our ability to drive ongoing improvements in safety, quality, customer connection and rapid continuous improvement. In the third quarter, we again received recognition for several of our new products with awards from both  MOTOR Magazine  and  Professional Tool & Equipment News , providing further evidence of the winning innovation that results from actively connecting with customers and furthering our deep understanding of their work. Finally, these results would not have been possible without the dedication and capability of our franchisees and associates worldwide; I thank them for their extraordinary commitment and ongoing contributions.”

Segment Results

Commercial & Industrial Group segment sales of $289.3 million in the quarter increased $0.8 million, or 0.3%, from 2015 levels. Excluding $3.5 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation, organic sales increased $4.3 million, or 1.5%, primarily due to higher sales in the segment’s European-based hand tools business and in the segment’s power tools and Asia/Pacific operations; organic sales to customers in critical industries were essentially flat.

Operating earnings of $43.7 million in the period, including $0.3 million of favorable foreign currency effects, increased $2.4 million from 2015 levels, and the operating margin (operating earnings as a percentage of segment sales) of 15.1% improved 80 basis points from 14.3% a year ago.

Snap-on Tools Group segment sales of $397.2 million in the quarter rose $16.6 million, or 4.4%, from 2015 levels. Excluding $4.6 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation, organic sales were up $21.2 million, or 5.6%, reflecting similar sales increases in both the company’s U.S. and international franchise operations.

Operating earnings of $64.6 million in the period, including $3.2 million of unfavorable foreign currency effects, increased $8.3 million from 2015 levels, and the operating margin of 16.3% improved 150 basis points from 14.8% a year ago.

Repair Systems & Information Group segment sales of $286.1 million in the quarter rose $3.2 million, or 1.1%, from 2015 levels. Excluding $2.8 million of unfavorable foreign currency translation and $1.1 million of acquisition-related sales, organic sales increased $4.9 million, or 1.7%, primarily due to higher sales of diagnostic and repair information products to independent repair shop owners and managers; sales of both undercar equipment and sales to OEM dealerships were essentially flat.

Operating earnings of $71.8 million in the period, including $1.1 million of unfavorable foreign currency effects, increased $2.1 million from 2015 levels, and the operating margin of 25.1% improved 50 basis points from 24.6% a year ago.

Financial Services operating earnings of $50.6 million on revenue of $71.6 million in the quarter compared to operating earnings of $43.5 million on revenue of $61.1 million a year ago.

Corporate expenses of $22.5 million in the quarter decreased $1.2 million from $23.7 million last year, primarily due to lower pension expense.

Outlook

Snap-on expects to make continued progress during the balance of 2016 along its defined runways for coherent growth, leveraging capabilities already demonstrated in the automotive repair arena and developing and expanding its professional customer base, not only in automotive repair, but also in adjacent markets, additional geographies and other areas, including in critical industries, where the cost and penalties for failure can be high. In pursuit of these initiatives, Snap-on now anticipates that capital expenditures in 2016 will approximate $80 million, of which $56.6 million was incurred through the end of the third quarter. Snap-on presently expects that its full year 2016 effective income tax rate will be slightly below its full year 2015 rate.

Non-GAAP Measures

References in this document to “organic sales” refer to sales from continuing operations calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), excluding acquisition-related sales and the impact of foreign currency translation. Management evaluates the company’s sales performance based on organic sales growth, which primarily reflects growth from the company’s existing businesses as a result of increased output, customer base and geographic expansion, new product development and/or pricing, and excludes sales contributions from acquired operations the company did not own as of the comparable prior-year reporting period. The company’s organic sales disclosures also exclude the effects of foreign currency translation as foreign currency translation is subject to volatility that can obscure underlying business trends. Snap-on has significant international operations and is subject to risks inherent with foreign operations, including foreign currency translation fluctuations. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measure of organic sales is meaningful to investors as it provides them with useful information to aid in identifying underlying growth trends in our businesses and facilitating comparisons of our sales performance with prior periods.

Non-GAAP Supplemental Data	
The following non-GAAP supplemental data is presented for informational purposes to provide readers with insight into the information used by management for assessing the operating performance of Snap-on Incorporated's ("Snap-on") non-financial services ("Operations") and "Financial Services" businesses.	
 	
The supplemental Operations data reflects the results of operations and financial position of Snap-on's tools, diagnostic and equipment products, software and other non-financial services operations with Financial Services on the equity method. The supplemental Financial Services data reflects the results of operations and financial position of Snap-on's U.S. and international financial services operations. The financing needs of Financial Services are met through intersegment borrowings and cash generated from Operations; Financial Services is charged interest expense on intersegment borrowings at market rates. Income taxes are charged to Financial Services on the basis of the specific tax attributes generated by the U.S. and international financial services businesses. Transactions between the Operations and Financial Services businesses were eliminated to arrive at the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
