MOOG REPORTS SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

East Aurora, NY -- Moog Inc. (NYSE: MOG.A and MOG.B) announced today financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

Second Quarter Highlights


•	Sales of $689 million, up 9% from a year ago;


•	Decision to wind down the pitch control portion of the wind energy business in 2018, while continuing to support current customer needs;


•	GAAP diluted earnings per share of $.39 includes restructuring expenses of $0.72 per share related to the wind energy pitch control business and $0.05 per share charge related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act;


•	Non-GAAP adjusted earnings per share from operations of $1.16, up from $0.88 a year ago;


•	Announcement of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share, starting in June;


•	Acquisition of VUES Brno s.r.o, a customized motion controls manufacturer in the Czech Republic;


•	Cash flow from operations of $1 million, including $81 million of pension contributions.

Segment Results

Total Aircraft Controls segment sales in the quarter were $311 million, up 8% year over year. Military aircraft sales of $156 million were 14% higher. F-35 Joint Strike Fighter sales increased 12%. Other OEM sales were up 29%, to $76 million, attributed to foreign military sales and helicopter programs. Military aftermarket sales were $47 million, down 3%.

Commercial aircraft revenues increased 2%, to $156 million. Commercial aftermarket sales were up 39% on strong initial provisioning and spares, offsetting lower OEM sales. Airbus OEM sales were down 10% due to timing of deliveries. Boeing 787 sales were flat while other legacy OEM sales to Boeing were down 17%, mostly due to a decline in 777 volume.

Space and Defense segment sales were $144 million, up 3% year over year. Space sales were very strong, 19% higher, attributed to increases in sales of space avionics and launch vehicle controls. Defense sales were down 5%, mostly due to lower demand for military vehicle controls and naval products.

Industrial Systems segment sales in the quarter were $234 million, 15% higher from a year ago. Excluding currency effects and acquisitions, sales increased 6%. Industrial automation sales were up a healthy 16%, to $108 million. Energy sales were up 19% on sales of exploration and power generation products. Simulation and test sales were up 12% on strong sales of test equipment. Medical market sales were 10% higher.

Consolidated 12-month backlog was $1.3 billion.

Fiscal 2018 Outlook

The Company updated its projections for fiscal 2018.


•	Sales of $2.69 billion, up 8% over last year and increased $70 million from 90 days ago;


•	GAAP earnings per share of $2.67, plus or minus $0.20, including the impact of wind energy restructuring and one-time tax reform effects;


•	Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $4.40, plus or minus $0.20;


•	Adjusted operating margins of 10.9% and GAAP margins of 9.7%;


•	Cash flow from operating activities of $170 million.

“Our underlying operations had another solid quarter,” said John Scannell, Chairman and CEO. “Six months into the year we’re comfortable with our earnings projections and have increased our sales forecast by $70 million. During the quarter, we announced an acquisition and initiated a quarterly cash dividend. We also decided to wind down our activities in the wind pitch control business by year end, resulting in a charge of $0.72 per share. Over the next six months, we’ll continue to meet the needs of our present wind customers and develop long-term support solutions for their products in the field. As we look out to fiscal ’19, we’ll see a benefit from this decision of 100 basis points in our Industrial Systems margins.”

John Scannell, Chairman and CEO, and Don Fishback, CFO, will host the call. Listeners can access the call live or in replay mode at www.moog.com/investors/communications.

•	we make estimates in accounting for long-term contracts, and changes in these estimates may have significant impacts on our earnings;


•	we enter into fixed-price contracts, which could subject us to losses if we have cost overruns;


•	we may not realize the full amounts reflected in our backlog as revenue, which could adversely affect our future revenue and growth prospects;


•	if our subcontractors or suppliers fail to perform their contractual obligations, our prime contract performance and our ability to obtain future business could be materially and adversely impacted;

•	unforeseen exposure to additional income tax liabilities may affect our operating results;


•	government regulations could limit our ability to sell our products outside the United States and otherwise adversely affect our business;


•	the failure or misuse of our products may damage our reputation, necessitate a product recall or result in claims against us that exceed our insurance coverage, thereby requiring us to pay significant damages;


•	future terror attacks, war, natural disasters or other catastrophic events beyond our control could negatively impact our business;


•	our operations are subject to environmental laws, and complying with those laws may cause us to incur significant costs; and


•	we are involved in various legal proceedings, the outcome of which may be unfavorable to us.
