(1) Adjusted results exclude one-time inventory step-up, backlog amortization and transaction costs for current and prior year acquisitions of TCG in 2019 (Defense segment) and DRG in 2018 (Power segment), respectively, and one-time transition and IT security costs associated with the relocation of our DRG business. |
- Sales of $639 million, up $19 million, or 3%, compared with the prior year (3% organic, 1% acquisitions, 1% unfavorable foreign currency translation);
- From an end market perspective, total sales to the defense markets increased 11%, or 10% organically, led by strong growth in ground and naval defense, while total sales to the commercial markets decreased 3%, as higher commercial aerospace sales were more than offset by reduced power generation sales, compared with the prior year. Please refer to the accompanying tables for a breakdown of sales by end market;
- Reported operating income was $106 million, up 4% compared with the prior year, while reported operating margin was flat at 16.5%;
- Adjusted operating income of $108 million, nearly flat compared with the prior year, principally reflects higher defense revenues in the Commercial/Industrial and Power segments, offset by reduced operating income on flat sales in the Defense segment and higher non-segment expenses;
- Adjusted operating margin of 16.8%, down 80 basis points compared with the prior year, primarily reflects reduced profitability and higher research and development expenses in the Defense segment, partially offset by favorable overhead absorption on higher naval defense revenues in the Power segment, as well as increased operating income and the benefits of our ongoing margin improvement initiatives in the Commercial/Industrial segment;
- Operating results included a gain on the sale of a building that was originally expected in the third quarter of 2019 and provided a $4 million benefit to current quarter results; and
- Non-segment expenses of $10 million increased by $3 million compared with the prior year, primarily due to higher corporate expenses.

- Sales of $318 million, up $6 million, or 2%, compared with the prior year (3% organic, 1% unfavorable foreign currency translation);

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information (Unaudited)
The Corporation supplements its financial information determined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial information. Curtiss-Wright believes that these non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional insight into the Company’s ongoing business performance. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related GAAP measures, and other companies may define such measures differently. Curtiss-Wright encourages investors to review its financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
The Company has elected to change the presentation of its financials and guidance to include an Adjusted (non-GAAP) view that excludes first year purchase accounting costs associated with its acquisitions, as well as one-time transition and IT security costs specifically associated with the relocation of the DRG business in the Power segment. Transition costs include relocation of employees and equipment as well as overlapping facility and labor costs associated with the relocation. We believe this Adjusted view will provide improved transparency to the investment community in order to better measure Curtiss-Wright’s ongoing operating and financial performance and better comparisons of our key financial metrics to our peers. Reconciliations of “Reported” GAAP amounts to “Adjusted” non-GAAP amounts are furnished within this release.
The following definitions are provided:
Adjusted Operating Income, Operating Margin, Net Income and Diluted EPS
These Adjusted financials are defined as Reported Operating Income, Operating Margin, Net Income and Diluted EPS under GAAP excluding the impact of first year purchase accounting costs associated with acquisitions for current and prior year periods, specifically one-time inventory step-up, backlog amortization and transaction costs, as well as one-time transition and IT security costs associated with the relocation of a business in the current year period.
Organic Revenue and Organic Operating Income
The Corporation discloses organic revenue and organic operating income because the Corporation believes it provides investors with insight as to the Company’s ongoing business performance. Organic revenue and organic operating income are defined as revenue and operating income excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and contributions from acquisitions made during the last twelve months.

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow Conversion
The Corporation discloses free cash flow because it measures cash flow available for investing and financing activities. Free cash flow represents cash available to repay outstanding debt, invest in the business, acquire businesses, return capital to shareholders and make other strategic investments. Free cash flow is defined as cash flow provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow excludes a capital investment in the Power segment related to the new, state-of-the-art naval facility principally for DRG, and a voluntary contribution to the Company’s corporate defined benefit pension plan made in the first quarter of 2018. The Corporation discloses free cash flow conversion because it measures the proportion of net earnings converted into free cash flow and is defined as free cash flow divided by net earnings from continuing operations.
