- Financial services operating earnings of $12.5 million increased $14.2 million from 2010 levels primarily due to continued growth in the company's on-book finance portfolio.
- Consolidated operating earnings of $99.8 million increased $29.8 million, or 42.6%, from 2010 levels; as a percentage of revenues, operating earnings improved to 13.9% from 11.1% a year ago.

"We are very encouraged by Snap-on's first quarter performance," said Nick Pinchuk, Snap-on chairman and chief executive officer, "and by the continued strengthening of our strategic position along each of our runways for growth. We believe the progress being made in enhancing the franchise network, expanding in the vehicle repair garage, extending in critical industries and building in emerging markets, coupled with our ongoing commitment to the Snap-on Value Creation Processes and the ramp-up of our on-book finance portfolio, positions Snap-on quite strongly for continued growth going forward. Overall, our first quarter reflects significant effort and achievement across the company. In that regard, I thank our franchisees and associates worldwide for their continued contributions and commitment."
Segment Results
Commercial & Industrial Group segment sales of $272.4 million in the first quarter increased $25.4 million, or 10.3%, from 2010 levels, primarily reflecting continued higher sales to customers in emerging markets and increased sales in the segment's European-based hand tools business. Excluding $4.4 million of favorable foreign currency translation, organic sales increased 8.4%.
Operating earnings of $31.6 million in the period increased $6.2 million from 2010 levels primarily due to higher sales, benefits from the Snap-on Value Creation Processes, including ongoing efficiency and productivity (collectively, "Rapid Continuous Improvement" or "RCI") initiatives, and savings from restructuring actions. As a percentage of sales, the Group's operating earnings of 11.6% in the first quarter increased from 10.3% a year ago.
Snap-on Tools Group segment sales of $282.0 million in the first quarter increased $33.5 million, or 13.5%, from 2010 levels. Excluding $3.9 million of favorable foreign currency translation, organic sales increased 11.7%, largely due to continued higher sales in the United States.
Operating earnings of $37.1 million in the period increased $10.1 million from 2010 levels as contributions from higher sales were partially offset by increased volume-related and other expenses and $2.7 million of higher restructuring costs. As a percentage of sales, operating earnings of 13.2% in the first quarter increased from 10.9% a year ago.
Repair Systems & Information Group segment sales of $227.0 million in the first quarter increased $24.9 million, or 12.3%, from 2010 levels, on particularly strong sales of undercar equipment and increased essential tool and facilitation program sales. Excluding $1.1 million of favorable foreign currency translation, organic sales increased 11.7%.
Operating earnings of $42.8 million in the period increased $5.8 million, or 15.7%, from 2010 levels primarily due to higher sales, lower restructuring costs and benefits from ongoing RCI and restructuring actions, partially offset by increased product development expenses. As a percentage of sales, operating earnings of 18.9% in the first quarter increased from 18.3% a year ago.
Financial Services operating earnings were $12.5 million on $25.8 million of revenue in the first quarter of 2011, as compared with an operating loss of $1.7 million on $9.7 million of revenue last year. The year-over-year increase in both revenue and operating earnings primarily reflects the growth in the company's on-book finance portfolio.
Corporate expenses of $24.2 million in the first quarter of 2011 increased $6.5 million from prior-year levels primarily due to increased performance-based and stock-based (including mark-to-market) compensation expenses and anticipated higher pension expense.
Outlook
Snap-on anticipates continuing with its planned strategic investments in 2011, including further expansion in emerging markets. As a result, the company now expects that capital expenditures in 2011 will approximate $65 million, of which $18.6 million was spent in the first quarter. Snap-on also expects to incur $11 million of higher year-over-year pension expense in 2011 largely due to the amortization of investment losses incurred in 2008 related to its domestic pension plan assets. Interest expense on the $250 million of senior notes issued in December 2010 will approximate $2.7 million per quarter in 2011. Snap-on anticipates that its full year 2011 effective income tax rate will approximate 33.0%.
