ALLEGION REPORTS FIRST-QUARTER 2015 FINANCIAL RESULTS
• | First-quarter 2015 earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations of $0.47 compared with 2014 EPS of $0.38; adjusted EPS of $0.51, up 15.9 percent compared with 2014 adjusted EPS of $0.44 |
• | First-quarter 2015 revenue of $458.7 million, down 1.7 percent compared to 2014, up 5.9 percent on an organic basis |
• | First-quarter 2015 operating margin of 15.5 percent compared with 2014 operating margin of 14.5 percent; adjusted operating margin of 16.4 percent compared with 2014 adjusted operating margin of 16.5 percent |
• | Full-year 2015 EPS from continuing operations remains $2.65 to $2.75 per share on an adjusted basis |
DUBLIN (April 30, 2015) - Allegion plc (NYSE: ALLE), a leading global provider of security products and solutions, today reported first-quarter 2015 net revenues of $458.7 million and net earnings of $45.6 million, or $0.47 per share from continuing operations. Excluding charges related to a Venezuela currency devaluation, adjusted net earnings were $49.7 million, or $0.51 per share, up 15.9 percent compared with 2014 adjusted EPS.
First-quarter net revenues decreased 1.7 percent compared to the prior year period (up 5.9 percent on an organic basis). The Americas segment increased total revenue by 2.6 percent (up 7.7 percent on an organic basis), driven by high single-digit non-residential growth and low single-digit residential (excluding Venezuela) growth. The Asia Pacific segment grew revenue 3.2 percent (up 1.4 percent on an organic basis) and the EMEIA segment revenues were down 17.6 percent (up 0.7 percent on an organic basis).
First-quarter operating margin was 15.5 percent, compared with 14.5 percent in 2014. First-quarter adjusted operating margin was 16.4 percent, compared with 16.5 percent in 2014. Adjusted operating margin was slightly down year-over-year as favorable price, volume leverage and productivity were more than offset by increased investments, inflation and currency exchange.
“We posted solid results in the first quarter with EPS up nearly 16 percent and remain on track to achieve the objectives we communicated during our investor day,” said David D. Petratis, Allegion chairman, president and chief executive officer. “Organic revenue grew nearly 6 percent with contributions from all regions. As expected, adjusted margins were relatively flat in the first quarter reflecting investments in our new products and channel initiatives, as well as absorbing the challenges of currency headwinds.”
“I was especially pleased with the revenue growth of the Americas non-residential business as well as a 200 basis point increase in EMEIA margins reflective of our ongoing improvement plan,” Petratis added. “We remain focused on execution of our capital allocation plan with a $30 million share repurchase and announced acquisitions of Brio and Zero International.”
Venezuela Update
In February 2015, the Venezuelan government announced changes to its exchange rate system that included the launch of a new, market-based system called the Marginal Currency System, or “SIMADI,” that replaced the SICAD II rate. The Company adopted the SIMADI rate after its introduction and recorded a charge of $7.0 million (before tax and non-controlling interest), or $0.04 per diluted share. The charge includes remeasurement of net monetary assets ($2.8 million) and a non-cash impairment charge to adjust Venezuelan inventory balances ($4.2 million).
Additional Items
Interest expense for the first quarter of 2015 was $1.5 million lower than the prior year as a result of the refinancing of the Company’s senior credit facility in 2014 and lower debt balances.
Other expense net items for the first quarter of 2015 were $3.2 million worse than the prior year, reflecting the previously mentioned Venezuelan asset remeasurement charge.
The Company's adjusted effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2015 was 20.2 percent. The comparable adjusted effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2014 was 29.8 percent. The decrease reflects the favorable changes in the Company’s mix of income earned in lower rate jurisdictions.
Cash Flow and Liquidity
Available cash flow was negative $4.8 million for first quarter 2015, an improvement of $4.4 million versus the prior
1
year. The Company ended first quarter 2015 with cash of $229.6 million and total debt of $1,252.1 million. The Company did not have any borrowings outstanding under its $500 million revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2015.
Share Repurchase
During the first quarter of 2015, the Company repurchased approximately 0.5 million shares for approximately $30.0 million related to the $200 million share repurchase program approved by the Company's board of directors in February 2014.
Dividends
As previously announced, Allegion's board of directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per ordinary share of the Company. The dividend is payable June 30, 2015, to shareholders of record on June 16, 2015.
2015 Outlook
The Company affirms previous full-year guidance of adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $2.65 to $2.75 per share and reported EPS from continuing operations of $2.61 to $2.71. The guidance assumes 2015 full-year organic revenue, which excludes currency and acquisitions, to increase in the range of 3.5 to 4.5 percent compared with 2014. The improvement in organic growth versus prior guidance is driven by stronger Americas volume. Full-year 2015 reported revenues are forecasted to decline 3.5 to 4.5 percent. The decline in total revenue projections versus prior guidance reflects increased currency headwinds in the EMEIA region.
Furthermore, the guidance assumes a full-year effective tax rate of approximately 22 percent from continuing operations as well as an average diluted share count for the full-year of approximately 97 million shares. This guidance assumes minimal earnings contribution from the Company’s Venezuela operations given exchange rate volatility.
The Company continues to target available cash flow of approximately 95 percent of net earnings from continuing operations.
Conference Call Information
On Thursday, April 30, David D. Petratis, chairman, president and chief executive officer, and Patrick Shannon, senior vice president and chief financial officer, will conduct a conference call for analysts and investors, beginning at 8:30 a.m. EDT, to review the Company's results.
A real-time, listen-only webcast of the conference call will be broadcast live online. Individuals wishing to listen may access the call through the Company's website at http://investor.allegion.com.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP EARNINGS FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS
(in millions, except per share data)
The Company has presented revenue, operating income, operating margin, earnings from continuing operations, diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations, on both a U.S. GAAP basis and on an adjusted basis and presented adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin because the Company's management believes it may assist investors in evaluating the Company's on-going operations as a standalone public company. Adjustments to revenue, operating income, operating margin, earnings and diluted EPS from continuing operations and EBITDA include items that are considered to be unusual or infrequent in nature such as goodwill impairment charge, restructuring charges, asset impairments, one-time separation costs related to the spin-off from Ingersoll Rand and charges related to the devaluation of the Venezuelan bolivar.
The Company considers these items unrelated to its core, on-going operating performance, and believes the use of these non-GAAP measures allows comparison of operating results that are consistent over time. The Company believes these non-GAAP disclosures provide important supplemental information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to the Company's financial condition and results of operations. Management uses these non-GAAP measures internally to evaluate the performance of the business. Investors should not consider these non-GAAP measures as alternatives to the related GAAP measures.
