Full Year 2014 Summary • Sales increased 8% as compared to 2013 as a result of acquisitions and organic growth initiatives, offsetting the 2013 disposition of the Italian rings and levers business and the impact of unfavorable currency exchange – sales increased in all six segments • Operating profit(1) improved, while the related margin was relatively flat, as increased sales levels and productivity initiatives were partially offset by a less favorable product sales mix and inefficiencies in several of the businesses, as well as a gain on the 2013 disposition in Packaging that did not recur in 2014 • Income(1) increased despite significantly higher tax rate, while EPS(1) decreased due approximately 9.4% higher weighted average shares outstanding in 2014 as compared to 2013 • Free Cash Flow(2) exceeded the 2013 level by $41 million and Total Debt increased as a result of the October 2014 acquisition of Allfast (1) Defined as operating profit, excluding “Special Items,” and income from continuing operations and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations attributable to TriMas Corporation, excluding “Special Items.” “Special Items” for each period are provided in the Appendix.
