Cummins Reports Improving Sales and Earnings Despite Continued Widespread Economic Weakness
COLUMBUS, Ind.--Cummins Inc. today reported third quarter sales of $2.53 billion and net income of $95 million, or $0.48 a share, down considerably from last year’s record third quarter results. However, the Company significantly improved its profitability and cash position from the second quarter despite the global recession that continues to affect demand in most markets.
Sales fell 31 percent and net income attributable to Cummins Inc. fell 59 percent compared to the same period last year. Third quarter Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) of $155 million, or 6.1 percent of sales, decreased 59 percent from a year ago.
The third quarter results include $22 million of restructuring and other charges associated with the cost of job-reduction actions. Excluding the charges, EBIT was $177 million, or 7.0 percent of sales, and net income attributable to Cummins Inc. was $110 million, or $0.56 a share.
Compared to the second quarter, sales increased 4 percent on the strength of improving demand in China, India and Brazil and a short-term increase in on-highway engine and components sales in the United States. Those increases more than offset quarter-to-quarter sales declines in the Company’s Power Generation and Distribution businesses.
Despite the modest increase in sales, net income attributable to Cummins rose 70 percent, EBIT increased 42 percent and the Company improved its cash position by $152 million from the second quarter. The significantly improved profitability and cash position from the second quarter are largely the result of lower spending, better utilization of manufacturing capacity and reduced inventory.
“Given the continued weakness in many of our markets, the Company performed extremely well in the third quarter,” said Cummins Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Tim Solso. “The decisive actions we have taken over the past several months have allowed us to remain profitable, generate cash and invest in the Company’s future in the face of the worst recession in decades.”
Compared to the same period a year ago, sales fell by at least 25 percent in all four of the Company’s operating segments, with the largest declines coming in the Power Generation and Engine segments. Despite the continued weakness in demand, all four segments were profitable in the third quarter.
The recent economic improvement in China, India and Brazil benefitted Cummins during the quarter, due to the Company’s longstanding strong position in all three countries. In addition, the Company saw an increase in engine and components sales to the medium- and heavy-duty truck engines markets in the U.S. compared to the second quarter in advance of new emissions standards that take effect in January 2010. However, based on current orders and market intelligence, Cummins expects very low demand in these markets during the first half of 2010.
“While we saw improvement in some markets in the third quarter, we expect the economic climate to remain challenging until late 2010 – especially in the United States and Europe,” Solso said. “As we look ahead to the recovery, however, Cummins continues to be extremely well positioned to take advantage of a number of opportunities and market trends that offer the potential for significant long-term growth.”
The Company’s work to reduce costs and working capital, most notably inventory, has allowed it to significantly improve its cash position throughout 2009. Cummins also continues to invest in its most critical projects, especially those associated with the launch of new emission-compliant products in 2010 and with fuel economy improvements.
The Company remains on track to launch its new EPA-compliant products in North America in January 2010. Cummins has tested its 2010 heavy-duty truck engines with approximately 50 major customers across all duty cycles and in a wide variety of weather conditions. By the time production begins, Cummins' new heavy-duty and mid-range engines will have logged approximately 5 million test miles.
Recent field test results have exceeded the Company’s expectations and customer feedback on the new engines has been positive. Those tests indicate that heavy-duty truck engine customers can expect up a 5 percent improvement over Cummins' current industry-leading fuel economy, while mid-range engine customers can expect to see up to a 3 percent improvement.
At the end of the third quarter, the Company had $686 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand, compared to $534 million at the end of the second quarter and $426 million at the end of 2008.
“We remain very focused on our priorities of generating positive cash flow while at the same time investing in those projects that are critical to our success in 2010 and beyond,” said Tom Linebarger, President and Chief Operating Officer. “We will continue to manage the Company very conservatively over the next few quarters as we work to position ourselves to emerge from the recession an even stronger company.”
Based on the third quarter results and Company forecasts for the remainder of the year, Cummins today is raising its sales and profit guidance for 2009. The Company now expects 2009 sales to be slightly less than 30 percent lower than 2008 and anticipates EBIT of 6 percent of sales for the year, excluding the restructuring charges. Previously, the Company said it expected 2009 sales to be slightly more than 30 percent lower than last year and EBIT to be 5 percent of sales, excluding restructuring charges.

We define EBIT as earnings or loss before interest expense, income tax expense and noncontrolling interests in income of consolidated subsidiaries (EBIT). We use EBIT to assess and measure the performance of our operating segments and also as a component in measuring our variable compensation programs. Below is a reconciliation of EBIT, a non-GAAP financial measure, to consolidated net income attributable to Cummins Inc., for each of the applicable periods: |

We believe this is a useful measure of our operating performance for the period presented as it illustrates our operating performance without regard to restructuring. This measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and may not be consistent with measures used by other companies. It should be considered supplemental data. The following table reconciles net income attributable to Cummins Inc. excluding restructuring and other charges to Net income attributable to Cummins Inc. for the three and nine months ended September 27, 2009, and the three months ended June 28, 2009. There were no restructuring actions taken in the three or nine months ended September 28, 2008. |
