January 2016 Orders Comments
Trailing three-month orders decreased 9 percent as monthly orders continue to reflect low oil prices, reduced levels of industrial capital spending and strength of the U.S. dollar, which deducted 3 percentage points through currency translation. Underlying orders were down 6 percent. The Climate Technologies, Network Power and Commercial & Residential Solutions segments reflected slight to modest underlying trailing three-month orders growth in January. The January order trends support the Company's expectations that overall Emerson underlying trailing three-month orders will turn positive in April.
As disclosed in the Company's 8-K filed October 16, 2015, the Company has transitioned the release of orders data from monthly to quarterly, with releases scheduled to occur in the months of December, March, June and September each year. However, we may periodically make off-cycle releases, such as this one, to provide management the opportunity to discuss our orders performance with the investment community.
Upcoming Investor Events
On Thursday, February 18, 2016, Emerson Chairman and Chief Executive Officer David Farr will present at the Barclays Industrial Conference in Miami, Florida at 8:15 a.m. ET.
