Johnson Controls Reports Second Quarter Earnings of $0.53 Per Share With 4% Sales Growth

MILWAUKEE, April 20, 2012. . . Johnson Controls, Inc. (NYSE: JCI) today announced earnings of $0.53 per diluted share, in-line with its previously announced financial guidance. Highlights of the company’s second quarter of 2012 include:

 

   

Record net sales of $10.6 billion vs. $10.1 billion in Q2 2011, up 4%

 

   

Income from business segments of $559 million vs. $521 million in 2011. Excluding net non-recurring items in both the 2012 and 2011 second quarters, income from business segments was $558 million in the current quarter vs. $557 million last year.

 

   

Net income of $364 million or $0.53 per diluted share compared with $354 million or $0.51 per share in the 2011 second quarter. Excluding the net non-recurring items, net income was $363 million or $0.53 per diluted share compared with net income of $383 million, or $0.56 per diluted share last year.

“As we stated at the start of the quarter, Johnson Controls faced a mix of opportunities and challenges. Our businesses did a good job of managing through these conditions and our second quarter results are consistent with our expectations,” said Johnson Controls Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Steve Roell.

Business results excluding non-recurring items

Automotive Experience sales in the 2012 second quarter increased 7% to $5.6 billion versus $5.2 billion last year due primarily to the incremental revenues associated with the 2011 acquisitions as well as launches of new automotive seating and interior programs. Revenues increased 12% in North America compared to a 17% increase in industry production. European sales were 4% higher versus an industry production decline of 4% while Asia sales were up 6%. Revenues in China, which are mostly generated through non-consolidated joint ventures, were 5% higher than the 2011 quarter, at $1.0 billion.

Automotive Experience reported segment income of $236 million in the current quarter, down 4% versus the second quarter of 2011. North America segment income fell 17% to $121 million versus $145 million in the same period last year. European segment income dropped 35% to $34 million compared to $52 million in the second quarter of 2011. In Asia, higher profitability in Japan resulted in a segment income increase of 62% to $81 million versus $50 million last year.

As previously indicated, North America second quarter earnings were negatively impacted by costs associated with the start-up of a metals plant as well as higher engineering and launch costs associated with new business wins. European earnings were negatively impacted by operating inefficiencies from certain programs launched over the past two years. The company has increased resources dedicated to improving its launch efficiencies and quality. Johnson Controls said it believes these actions will continue to make an increasingly positive impact on earnings through the remainder of 2012 and beyond.

Building Efficiency sales in the 2012 second quarter were $3.6 billion, slightly higher than last year, led by a 10% revenue increase in Asia and 6% increase in North America Systems and Global Workplace Solutions. Sales in Europe were lower than last year, especially in southern Europe where the economies are weakest. Residential HVAC sales declined by double-digits in the quarter, consistent with the year-over-year performance of the overall industry. Second quarter backlog increased 3% to a record $5.3 billion versus $5.1 billion in the year-ago quarter, with gains in Asia and North America being partially offset by lower demand in Europe.

Segment income of $127 million was down 4% compared with last year. Higher income and profitability in North America Systems, North America Service, Asia and Global Workplace Solutions was offset by lower results in Europe and residential HVAC. The company said the residential HVAC market was negatively impacted by unusually warm winter weather in North America, resulting in lower demand for furnaces.

Power Solutions sales in the second quarter of 2012 were slightly higher at $1.4 billion as higher volumes in Europe and China and a favorable product mix were offset by lower North American demand. Unit shipments fell 6% in North America with lower aftermarket demand more than offsetting higher sales of original equipment batteries. The company attributed the soft aftermarket demand to unseasonably warm winter temperatures which negatively impacted shipments in the current quarter. Johnson Controls said that customer inventory levels at the end of the quarter were comparable with the levels a year ago.

Power Solutions segment income was $195 million, up 10% versus $178 million in the second quarter of 2011 as a result of a favorable product mix and the benefits of increased vertical integration. The increases were partially offset by costs of temporarily importing batteries to Chinese customers associated with production interruptions at the company’s Shanghai battery plant.

Johnson Controls said that the construction of its recycling facility in South Carolina and its third Chinese battery plant are proceeding on schedule. It also noted that it expects costs related to the Shanghai plant shutdown to be lower in the balance of 2012 as it finalizes a solution to the disruption. Demand continues to grow for the company’s higher-margin AGM lead-acid batteries and plans to increase capacity are progressing as expected.

2012 Financial Outlook

Johnson Controls said there are a number of factors that support improved financial results in the second half of 2012 versus the first half of the year. They include:

Power Solutions

 

   

Pricing actions

 

   

Benefits of vertical integration (lead recycling)

 

   

Reduction in battery imports to China

Automotive Experience

 

   

The 2011 impact of the tsunami on Japanese auto production which negatively impacted last year’s second half results

 

   

Higher North America automotive production

 

   

Normal seasonality in profitability (2H higher than 1H)

Building Efficiency

 

   

Normal seasonality in profitability (2H higher than 1H)

 

   

SG&A cost reduction initiatives

 

   

Pricing actions

 

   

Improved performance in Service business

Johnson Controls said it was comfortable with the current sell-side consensus for the full fiscal year 2012. The company said that it expects its third quarter earnings to increase approximately 20% vs. the 2011 third quarter, and its fourth quarter earnings to increase approximately 25% from the prior year period.

“Our second half performance forecast is not predicated on improvements in our markets. Our businesses are gaining market share and extending their market-leading positions,” Mr. Roell said. “We will continue the aggressive actions to improve efficiencies and to reduce costs, which will accrue increasing benefits throughout the rest of the year and beyond.”
