OPERATIONS REVIEW

David G. Nord, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “I am pleased with our performance in the quarter which included both higher sales and operating margin compared to 2012. The sales increase was due to the impact of acquisitions while our base business was in line with last year’s strong results. From a profitability perspective, we were able to expand our operating margin by fifty basis points despite incurring costs associated with facility consolidations in our Power segment. I am also pleased to announce that we completed the acquisition of Connector Manufacturing Company during the second quarter. CMC manufactures high quality mechanical and compression connectors and has been added to our Electrical segment.”

Mr. Nord continued “The macroeconomic environment in the second quarter modestly improved from the beginning of the year. U.S. non-residential activity benefitted from higher levels of renovation projects, particularly for our lighting businesses. North American electrical utility demand was below the prior year which benefitted from unusually strong spending due to favorable weather conditions and high levels of transmission project activity. Demand for our industrial businesses was mixed while the residential markets remained strong.”

SEGMENT REVIEW

The comments and year-over-year percentages in this segment review are based on second quarter results in 2013 and 2012.

Electrical segment net sales in the second quarter of 2013 increased 5% to $564.5 million compared to $536.3 million reported in the second quarter of 2012. The increase was primarily due to acquisitions which contributed 3% to sales in the quarter. Organic volume increased due to higher shipments of lighting products partially offset by weaker industrial demand, most notably in high voltage test equipment. Compared to the second quarter of 2012, operating income increased 9% to $88.9 million, or 15.7% of net sales. The increase in operating income was primarily due to the benefit of pricing and material costs while productivity offset all other cost increases.

Hubbell’s Power segment net sales in the second quarter of 2013 were $236.8 million compared to $242.1 million reported in the second quarter of 2012. The decrease was primarily due to lower levels of project related transmission spending and weaker distribution sales partially offset by the favorable impact of an acquisition. Compared to the second quarter of 2012, operating income declined slightly to $43.2 million. Operating margin in the second quarter of 2013 was 18.2% compared to 17.9% reported in the comparable period of 2012. The increase in operating margin was primarily due to a favorable product mix partially offset by facility consolidation costs.

SUMMARY & OUTLOOK

Mr. Nord commented, “Looking to our full year outlook for 2013, we expect overall sales to increase in the 4 to 6% range and operating margin to expand approximately 30 basis points. The sales outlook has increased slightly due to the impact of our recent acquisition. From a profitability perspective, the impact of our acquisition activity will slightly mute the level of operating margin improvement.”

Mr. Nord concluded, “The first half results were largely in line with expectations and we now turn our attention to navigating through the second half of the year where we will be focused on integrating our recent acquisitions and driving margin improvement. Our financial position remains strong and we plan to continue deploying our capital in value creating ways. I am encouraged that the investments we have made in productivity programs and business development have translated into increased profitability.”
