BRISTOL, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Barnes Group Inc. (NYSE: B), a global provider of highly engineered products, differentiated industrial technologies, and innovative solutions, today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2019.
“Ongoing trade uncertainties and challenging end markets have persisted into the second quarter leading to the deferral of customer new program launches in a number of our higher margin Industrial businesses. Helping to offset these headwinds has been sustained strong performance in Aerospace, where we delivered another record level of quarterly revenue and operating profit,” said Patrick J. Dempsey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Barnes Group Inc. “We continue to adjust our operations as necessary to align with current market conditions and, given our strong free cash flow, will maintain organic and acquisitive investment to position the business for recovery in our strategic end markets,” added Dempsey.
Second Quarter 2019 Highlights
Net sales of $372 million in the second quarter were down 1% from $375 million in the prior year period, with organic sales declining (1) 4%. Acquisition sales contributed 5%, while foreign exchange negatively impacted sales by 2%. Operating income was $57.0 million, down 11% from $63.9 million in the second quarter of 2018. Excluding Gimatic short term purchase accounting adjustments of $1.4 million, adjusted operating income was $58.3 million, down 9% from a year ago. Adjusted operating margin declined 130 bps to 15.7%.
Interest expense increased $1.3 million, or 31%, to $5.4 million as a result of higher average borrowings due to the Gimatic acquisition, partially offset by a lower average interest rate.
The Company’s effective tax rate was 24.5% for the second quarter of 2019 compared with 15.9% for the prior year period. The tax rate increase is primarily due to the absence of an $0.08 per share tax benefit from the reversal of certain international valuation allowances and a $0.03 per share tax benefit of U.S. Tax Reform adjustments in the second quarter of last year. Partially offsetting these items is the benefit of a foreign tax holiday which was granted late in 2018.
Net income was $37.6 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, compared to $49.4 million, or $0.93 per diluted share, a year ago. On an adjusted basis, net income per share of $0.75 was down 17% from $0.90 a year ago. Second quarter 2019 adjusted net income per share excludes $0.02 of Gimatic short-term purchase accounting adjustments in our Industrial Segment, while second quarter 2018 excludes a benefit of $0.03 related to U.S. Tax Reform.
Year-to-date cash provided by operating activities was $108.2 million versus $88.6 million in the prior year period. Free cash flow was $82.7 million compared to $64.2 million last year. Capital expenditures were $25.4 million, up $1.1 million from a year ago.
Segment Performance
Industrial
Second quarter sales were $233.4 million, down 6% from $249.6 million in the prior year period. Organic sales decreased approximately 11% primarily related to lingering softness in automotive-related end markets. Unfavorable foreign exchange decreased sales by $7.3 million, or 3%, while acquisition revenues from IGS and Gimatic contributed $18.3 million, or 7%.
Operating profit in the second quarter was $27.4 million, down 28% from $38.3 million in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by lower organic sales volume and short-term purchase accounting adjustments. Excluding the Gimatic short-term purchase accounting adjustments in the current quarter, adjusted operating profit of $28.8 million was down 25% from a year ago while adjusted operating margin was 12.3%, down 310 bps.
Aerospace
Second quarter 2019 sales were $138.3 million, up 10% from $125.7 million in the same period last year. Aerospace original equipment manufacturing (“OEM”) sales increased 11% due to the ramping of new engine programs while aftermarket sales increased 8% from continuing strength in maintenance, repair and overhaul, and spare parts sales.
Operating profit was $29.5 million for the second quarter of 2019, up 16% as compared to $25.6 million in the prior year period, primarily reflecting the profit impact from higher sales volumes. Operating margin of 21.4% was up 110 bps from 20.3% a year ago.
Aerospace OEM backlog ended the second quarter at $791 million, down 2% from the end of the first quarter of 2019. The Company expects to ship approximately 50% of this backlog over the next 12 months.
Updated 2019 Outlook
Barnes Group now expects 2019 total revenue growth of 3% to 4%, with organic sales approximately flat to +1%, down slightly from our prior expectation. Foreign exchange is anticipated to negatively impact revenues by approximately 1% for the year, while acquisition revenues are forecasted to provide 4%. Adjusted operating margin is forecasted to be between 15.5% and 16.0%, consistent with our prior expectation. Earnings are now expected to be in the range of $3.10 to $3.20 per diluted share, down from our prior expectation of $3.15 to $3.27 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis, excluding approximately $0.08 of Gimatic short term purchase accounting adjustments, earnings per share are now expected to be $3.18 to $3.28, down 1% to up 2% from 2018’s adjusted earnings per share of $3.22. Further, the Company expects capital expenditures of $60 million and cash conversion of approximately 100% of net income. The effective tax rate for 2019 is expected to be between 23.5% and 24.0%.

Notes:
(1) The Company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. The Company believes that the free cash flow metric is useful to investors and management as a measure of cash generated by business operations that can be used to invest in future growth, pay dividends, repurchase stock and reduce debt. This metric can also be used to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash flow from business operations and the impact that this cash flow has on the Company's liquidity.

Notes:
(1) The Company has excluded short-term purchase accounting adjustments related to its Gimatic acquisition from its “as adjusted” financial measurements for 2019. The Company has excluded the following from its "as adjusted" financial measurements for 2018: 1) $2,613 of adjustments made in 2018 to reduce the tax expense recorded in December 2017 related to the U.S. tax reform (commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act), 2) short-term purchase accounting adjustments related to its Industrial Gas Springs (IGS) and Gimatic acquisitions and 3) transaction costs related to the IGS and Gimatic acquisitions. The tax effects of these items, excluding the effects of U.S. tax reform which impacted tax expense directly, were calculated based on the respective tax jurisdiction of each item. In 2018, the tax effect on the acquisition transaction costs, based on the countries in which such costs originated, approximated 2% as the majority of these costs are not expected to be deductible. The remaining items include tax effects that range from approximately 22% to 27%. Management believes that these adjustments provide the Company and its investors with an indication of our baseline performance excluding items that are not considered to be reflective of our ongoing results. Management does not intend results excluding the adjustments to represent results as defined by GAAP, and the reader should not consider it as an alternative measurement calculated in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's performance. Accordingly, the measurements have limitations depending on their use.
