Worthington Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year Results

June 29, 2016 9:14 AM EDT

COLUMBUS, OH -- (Marketwired) -- 06/29/16 -- Worthington Industries, Inc. (NYSE: WOR) today reported net sales of $714.7 million and net earnings of $58.5 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, for its fiscal 2016 fourth quarter ended May 31, 2016. Net earnings in the quarter include pre-tax restructuring charges totaling $1.9 million and a $6.9 million pre-tax gain related to the consolidation of the results of the Company's Worthington Specialty Processing (WSP) joint venture with U.S. Steel, as described under "Fiscal 2016 Highlights" below. The net after-tax impact of these items increased earnings per diluted share by $0.05.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company reported net sales of $846.0 million and net earnings of $28.9 million, or $0.44 per diluted share. Net earnings in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 included pre-tax impairment and restructuring charges totaling $6.5 million, which reduced earnings per diluted share by $0.08.

For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2016, the Company reported net sales of $2.8 billion and net earnings of $143.7 million, or $2.22 per diluted share, up from net earnings of $76.8 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, in the prior year. Net sales were down 17% year over year, or $564.5 million, driven primarily by lower average selling prices in Steel Processing and lower volume in Pressure Cylinders and Engineered Cabs. Fiscal year 2016 net earnings were adversely affected by pre-tax impairment and restructuring charges in the net amount of $33.1 million, which when combined with the $6.9 million pre-tax gain related to the consolidation of the WSP joint venture, reduced earnings per diluted share by $0.26. Impairment and restructuring charges in the prior year resulted in a net pre-tax charge of $107.1 million, which reduced earnings per diluted share by $1.00.

Financial highlights for the current and comparative periods are as follows:

"We ended fiscal year 2016 with a very good fourth quarter which drove annual earnings per share to a record $2.22," said John McConnell, Chairman and CEO. "We had excellent results in the fourth quarter in Steel Processing, our joint ventures, especially WAVE, and the industrial and consumer products businesses in Pressure Cylinders. I want to thank each of our employees for their dedication and hard work in challenging times and for taking advantage of opportunities to improve and help the Company grow."

Consolidated Quarterly Results

Net sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 were $714.7 million, down 16% from the comparable quarter in the prior year, when net sales were $846.0 million. The decrease was the result of lower average selling prices in Steel Processing, as a result of lower steel prices, and lower volume in certain Pressure Cylinders businesses, and Engineered Cabs.

Gross margin increased $24.2 million from the prior year quarter to $134.5 million due to a favorable pricing spread and the favorable impact of inventory holding gains in Steel Processing in the current quarter compared to inventory holding losses in the prior year quarter, partially offset by lower volume in Pressure Cylinders and Engineered Cabs.

Operating income for the current quarter was $54.0 million, an increase of $26.8 million from the prior year quarter. The increase was due to higher gross margin, and the favorable impact of lower impairment and restructuring charges.

Interest expense was $8.1 million for the current quarter, compared to $8.2 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was due to lower short-term borrowings.

The Company's portion of equity income from unconsolidated joint ventures increased $15.7 million from the prior year quarter to $34.1 million on higher contributions from all the joint ventures. Joint venture sales totaled $393.3 million for the current quarter. The Company received cash distributions of $21.2 million from unconsolidated joint ventures during the quarter.

Income tax expense was $24.8 million in the current quarter compared to $6.2 million in the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to higher earnings. Tax expense in the current quarter reflects an effective rate of 29.8% compared to 17.8% for the prior year quarter.

Balance Sheet

At quarter-end, total debt was $583.5 million, down $27.6 million from February 29, 2016, due to lower short-term borrowings. The Company had $84.2 million of cash at quarter-end.

Quarterly Segment Results

Steel Processing's net sales of $466.0 million were down 14%, or $73.9 million, from the comparable prior year quarter driven primarily by lower average selling prices. Operating income of $40.4 million was $17.9 million higher than the prior year quarter due to a favorable pricing spread and the favorable impact of inventory holding gains in the current quarter compared to inventory holding losses in the prior year quarter. The mix of direct versus toll tons processed was 52% to 48% in the current quarter, compared to 62% to 38% in the prior year quarter. The change in mix was primarily the result of the consolidation of the WSP joint venture effective March 1, 2016.

Pressure Cylinders' net sales of $218.6 million were down 13%, or $33.0 million, from the comparable prior year quarter. The decline was driven primarily by a 61% volume decrease in the oil & gas equipment business. Operating income of $12.9 million was $2.6 million higher than the prior year quarter on lower impairment and restructuring charges and improvements in the industrial and consumer products businesses. Declines in the oil & gas equipment business partially offset the overall improvement in Pressure Cylinders' operating income.

Engineered Cabs' net sales of $29.1 million were down $17.4 million, or 37%, below the prior year quarter due to declines in market demand and the September 2015 closure of the Florence, S.C. facility. The operating loss was $2.0 million less than the prior year quarter.

The "Other" category includes the Energy Innovations businesses, as well as non-allocated corporate expenses. Net sales in the "Other" category were $1.0 million, a decrease of $7.0 million from the prior year quarter as the Construction Services business has ceased operations. The Construction Services business reported a $0.3 million loss for the quarter as operations were wound down.

Fiscal 2016 Highlights

  • On March 1, 2016, the Company obtained operating control of the WSP joint venture with U.S. Steel. As a result, the Company began consolidating the results of WSP within the financial results of Steel Processing as of March 1, 2016. The ownership percentages remained unchanged with Worthington at 51% and U.S. Steel at 49%.
  • On December 7, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of the global CryoScience business of Taylor Wharton, including a manufacturing facility in Theodore, Ala. for $30.6 million. The asset purchase was made pursuant to the Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings of Taylor Wharton and became part of Pressure Cylinders upon closing.
  • During Fiscal 2016, the Company repurchased a total of 3,500,000 common shares for $99.8 million at an average price of $28.53.

Outlook

"While we expect some headwinds to continue, our legacy businesses are performing well and we anticipate a good start to our new fiscal year," McConnell said. "The Company's two underperforming businesses, engineered cabs and oil and gas, are in better positions with smaller footprints and the cryogenics business is repositioning with its moves to new facilities later this year and new markets. And, all of our efforts in Transformation 2.0 and innovation will help us continue to improve and achieve our goals for growth in each of our businesses."
