Bruker Corporation Reports

Third Quarter 2013 Financial Results

 

BILLERICA, Mass.November 1, 2013 — Bruker Corporation (NASDAQ: BRKR) today reported financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2013.

 

Bruker’s revenues for the third quarter of 2013 declined by 2.0 percent to $439.0 million, compared to $447.8 million in the third quarter of 2012.  Excluding a 0.5 percent positive effect from changes in foreign exchange rates and a 0.1 percent net negative effect from acquisitions and divestitures, Bruker reported a year-over-year decline in organic revenues of 2.4 percent in the third quarter of 2013.  This result includes organic growth of 0.3 percent in the Bruker Scientific Instruments (BSI) segment in the third quarter of 2013, and a revenue decline of 27.1 percent in the Bruker Energy and Superconducting Technologies (BEST) segment.  In the third quarter of 2012, BEST results included approximately $16 million of license revenue and associated operating profit.

 

Bruker reported third quarter 2013 GAAP operating income of $31.5 million, or 7.2% of revenues, compared to $60.3 million, or 13.5% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2012.  Third quarter 2013 GAAP earnings per diluted share (EPS) were $0.10, compared to EPS of $0.24 in the third quarter of 2012.

 

On a non-GAAP basis, Bruker reported third quarter 2013 operating income of $47.3 million, or 10.8% of revenues, compared to $69.4 million, or 15.5% of revenues, in the third quarter of 2012.  Third quarter 2013 non-GAAP EPS were $0.20, compared to $0.28 in the third quarter of 2012.  A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided in the Company’s financial tables accompanying this press release.

 

For the first nine months of 2013, Bruker’s revenues grew 1.0 percent to $1.29 billion, compared to $1.27 billion in the first nine months of 2012.  Excluding a 0.6 percent unfavorable impact from changes in foreign exchange rates and a 0.4 percent net negative effect from acquisitions and divestitures, the Company generated 2.0 percent organic revenue growth for the first nine months of 2013.

 

Bruker reported GAAP operating income of $87.2 million, or 6.8% of revenues, for the first nine months of 2013, compared to $116.8 million, or 9.2% of revenues, for the first nine months of 2012.  The Company’s GAAP EPS for the first nine months of 2013 were $0.27, compared to $0.39 in the first nine months of 2012.

 

On a non-GAAP basis, Bruker reported operating income of $124.2 million, or 9.6% of revenues, for the first nine months of 2013, compared to $146.0 million, or 11.5% of revenues, for the first nine months of 2012.  Non-GAAP EPS for the first nine months of 2013 were $0.46, compared to $0.54 in the first nine months of 2012.

 

“Our third quarter performance reflected continued weak demand from industrial markets, a double-digit decline in our Preclinical Imaging Division’s revenues, and a difficult year-over-year comparison for BEST due to a license transaction that was recorded in Q3 2012,” said Frank Laukien, President and CEO of Bruker.  “On a year-to-date basis, mid-single digit revenue growth in our BioSpin and CALID Groups, and low-single digit growth in our BEST segment, has been partially offset by a mid-single digit revenue decline in our BMAT Group, due to weakness in demand from Asia-Pacific industrial customers.”

 

Laukien continued: “Throughout 2013, we have been making organizational, system, and operational changes to better position Bruker for sustainable, profitable growth and cash flow generation.  While we are pleased with the progress of these ongoing restructuring efforts, our near-term visibility has been inconsistent throughout 2013, leading to variability in our quarterly results.  With continued weakness in industrial markets, our updated view is that the fourth quarter of 2013 will not be as strong as we originally expected and, as a result, we are taking additional near-term actions to reduce our headcount and lower our expense base, while analyzing restructuring opportunities for 2014 and beyond.”

 



 

Bruker is in the process of reducing headcount in its Bruker Materials (BMAT) Group by approximately 150 employees.  This cost reduction action is in addition to Bruker’s previously announced restructuring activities for 2013, which include:

 

·                  Outsourcing of various non-core manufacturing activities

 

·                  Divesting a non-core BioSpin product line (Power Electronics) in Q1 of 2013

 

·                  Closure of a CALID and a BEST manufacturing facility, expected to be completed in Q4 of 2013

 

With the addition of the cost reduction initiatives of the BMAT Group, the Company now expects to generate approximately $15 to $20 million in annual savings in 2014 from its 2013 restructuring activities. These savings represent an increase from the Company’s prior forecast of $10 million in annual savings.

 

“We previously communicated that our 2013 guidance anticipated a second-half recovery of industrial markets and a strong fourth quarter,” said Charles Wagner, Chief Financial Officer of Bruker.  “Our updated outlook is that while our fourth quarter is expected to be up sequentially, it will be weaker than the previous year primarily due to declines in our BMAT Group revenues.  As a result, we are lowering our guidance for 2013 and taking additional decisive actions to help us improve the efficiency of our operations as we enter next year.”

 

Bruker is lowering its full year 2013 guidance.  The Company currently expects its full year 2013 reported revenues to decrease between -1 percent and 0 percent, compared to the full year 2012.  This revised guidance implies full year 2013 organic revenue growth to be between 0 and 1 percent.  Full year 2013 non-GAAP EPS is now expected to be in the range of $0.72 to $0.76, compared to previous expectations of $0.80 to $0.83.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The non-GAAP financial measures used by Bruker Corporation in this press release are non-GAAP gross profit; non-GAAP gross profit margin; non-GAAP operating income; non-GAAP operating margin; non-GAAP interest and other income (expense) net; non-GAAP profit before tax; non-GAAP tax rate; non-GAAP net income; non-GAAP earnings per share; and free cash flow.  These non-GAAP measures exclude costs related to restructuring costs, acquisition and related integration expenses, amortization of acquired intangible assets and other costs that are non-recurring in nature. There are limitations in using non-GAAP financial measures as they are not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

 

We believe that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful and supplementary information to investors regarding our quarterly and annual performance.  It is our belief that these non-GAAP financial measures are particularly important as Bruker implements restructuring initiatives to expand operating margins.  The financial impact of these activities, particularly restructuring activities, can be large and may adversely affect the comparability of our results from period-to-period.  We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less additions to property, plant, and equipment.  We believe free cash flow is a useful measure to evaluate our business as it indicates the amount of cash generated after additions to property, plant, and equipment that is available for, among other things, strategic acquisitions, investments in our business, and repayment of debt.

 



 

We regularly use non-GAAP financial measures internally to understand, manage, and evaluate our business results and make operating decisions.  We also measure our employees and compensate them, in part, based on such non-GAAP measures.  For the same reasons, we also use this information for our forecasting activities.

 

Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP.  The non-GAAP financial measures are meant to supplement, and to be viewed in conjunction with, GAAP financial measures.  They are limited in value because they exclude charges that have a material effect on our reported results and, therefore, should not be relied upon as the sole financial measures to evaluate our financial results.    Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of the financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as provided in the tables accompanying this press release.
