NORTH ANDOVER, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Watts Water Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: WTS) today announced results for the fourth quarter and full-year 2019.
“We finished 2019 with a solid fourth quarter, in-line with our expectations,” said Chief Executive Officer Robert J. Pagano Jr. “We delivered record fourth quarter sales driven by organic growth in all regions. We leveraged the sales growth along with the benefits from productivity and restructuring to drive higher operating income, and record fourth quarter operating margin and earnings per share, all on an adjusted basis. For the full year, organic sales growth and adjusted operating margin expansion met our original 2019 expectations.”
Sales for the fourth quarter and the full year were $400 million and $1.6 billion, up 3% and 2%, respectively, as compared to the similar periods of 2018. Organic sales growth for the fourth quarter and full year both increased by 4%. Net income per diluted share (EPS) for the fourth quarter and for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $0.93 and $3.85, respectively, as compared to $0.94 and $3.73 for the prior-year periods. GAAP EPS during the fourth quarter decreased by $0.01 as better operating performances in all regions and lower net interest costs was more than offset by increased restructuring and other costs. GAAP EPS for the full year 2019 improved due to a solid operating performance in the Americas and lower net interest costs, partially offset by restructuring and other costs and reduced foreign currency gains. Further, GAAP EPS for the fourth quarter and the full year of 2018 were both positively impacted by a tax adjustment.
Adjusted EPS for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2019 was $1.00 and $4.07, respectively, as compared to $0.88 and $3.74 for the prior-year periods. Adjusted EPS for the quarter improved due to better operating performances in all regions and lower net interest costs. Adjusted EPS for the full year 2019 improved due to a solid operating performance in the Americas and lower net interest costs, partially offset by reduced foreign currency gains.
A summary of fourth quarter and full year financial results is as follows:

Mr. Pagano concluded, “We achieved our goals for 2019 to drive organic sales growth and margin expansion, and continued to reinvest in future growth, especially in our smart and connected products. We attained a record financial performance for 2019, a direct result of our team’s efforts. We intend to continue to drive our long-term strategy and to invest for the future.”
Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights:
- Fourth quarter sales increased 3% and 4% on a reported and organic basis, respectively, compared to the fourth quarter last year; reported operating margin increased 10 basis points in 2019 and included $2.8 million or 70 basis points in restructuring and other costs. Adjusted operating margin increased 80 basis points. Regionally:
Americas
- Reported sales increased 5%, including 1% from acquisition. Organic sales increased 4%, with growth in plumbing, drains, electronics, water quality and heating and hot water products.
- Operating margin was flat on a reported basis and increased by 20 basis points on an adjusted basis. Reported margin in 2019 was impacted by footprint optimization costs. Adjusted operating margin increased as benefits from price, volume, and productivity savings were offset in part by growth investments and inflation.
Europe
- Reported sales declined by 1%, reduced 3% by negative foreign exchange movements. Organically sales were up 2%, driven by continued strength in our drains and electronics businesses.
- Operating margin decreased 50 basis points on a reported basis and increased by 90 basis points on an adjusted basis. Reported and adjusted operating margin benefited from increased price, volume and productivity, including benefits from restructuring programs that were partially offset by growth investments and inflation. The 2019 reported margin was negatively impacted by $1.6 million or 140 basis points from restructuring charges.
Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa (“APMEA”)
- Reported sales increased by 18% and organically sales were up 20%, with gains in China, Korea and the Middle East. Reported sales were impacted by negative foreign exchange movement.
- Reported and adjusted operating margin both increased 470 basis points, due to an increase in third party volume, better product mix, productivity and cost controls, partially offset by lower intercompany volume, growth investments and inflation.
Cash Flow and Capital Allocation:
- For 2019, operating cash flow was $194 million and net capital expenditures were $29 million, resulting in free cash flow of $165 million. In 2018, operating cash flow was $169 million, net capital expenditures were $34 million and free cash flow was $136 million. Operating cash flow and free cash flow increased due to higher income and decreases in inventory and tax payments. Free cashflow also increased due to lower capital expenditures.
- The Company repatriated $5.5 million in cash during the fourth quarter. For 2019, $43 million was repatriated, a majority of which was used to pay down revolving debt.
- The Company repurchased approximately 49,000 shares of Class A common stock at a cost of approximately $4.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2019. For 2019, approximately 228,000 shares were purchased at a cost of approximately $19.5 million, which more than offset dilution from our stock compensation programs. Approximately $142 million remains available for stock repurchases under the current stock repurchase program, which has no expiration date.
For a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP items and a statement regarding the usefulness of these measures to investors and management in evaluating our operating performance, please see the tables attached to this press release.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Measures
In this press release, we refer to non-GAAP financial measures (including adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margins, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, organic sales, free cash flow, cash conversion rate of free cash flow to net income, and net debt to capitalization ratio) and provide a reconciliation of those non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding financial measures contained in our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these financial measures enhance the overall understanding of our historical financial performance and give insight into our future prospects. Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margins, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share eliminate certain expenses incurred and benefits recognized in the periods presented that relate primarily to our global restructuring programs, professional fees incurred to optimize and simplify our European legal structure and gain a deeper understanding of our product/customer profitability by end market, acquisition related costs, footprint optimization costs, the related income tax impacts on these items and other tax adjustments, including the impact of the 2017 Tax Act. Management then utilizes these adjusted financial measures to assess the run-rate of the Company’s operations against those of comparable periods. Organic sales growth is a non-GAAP measure of sales growth excluding the impacts of foreign exchange, acquisitions and divestitures from period-over-period comparisons. Management believes reporting organic sales growth provides useful information to investors, potential investors and others, and allows for a more complete understanding of underlying sales trends by providing sales growth on a consistent basis. Free cash flow, cash conversion rate of free cash flow to net income, and the net debt to capitalization ratio, which are adjusted to exclude certain cash inflows and outlays, and include only certain balance sheet accounts from the comparable GAAP measures, are an indication of our performance in cash flow generation and also provide an indication of the Company's relative balance sheet leverage to other industrial manufacturing companies. These non-GAAP financial measures are among the primary indicators management uses as a basis for evaluating our cash flow generation and our capitalization structure. In addition, free cash flow is used as a criterion to measure and pay certain compensation-based incentives. For these reasons, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures can be useful to investors, potential investors and others. The Company’s non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
