Net sales for the fourth quarter were $483.6 million, up 33 percent from the prior year. Excluding surcharge revenue, net sales were $352.4 million, up 31 percent from a year ago.
Total pounds sold in the fourth quarter were 12 percent higher than the fiscal year 2010 fourth quarter, with the Premium Alloys Operations (PAO) segment up 40 percent and the Advanced Metals Operations (AMO) segment up 7 percent.
Gross profit was $77.0 million compared with $43.7 million in the fiscal year 2010 fourth quarter. The higher gross profit in this year’s fourth quarter was driven by higher volumes, an improved product mix, higher prices and better operating performance.
SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue excluding surcharge was 1.2 percent lower than the prior year. SG&A expense in the current quarter was $39.6 million or 11.2 percent of revenue, compared with $33.5 million or 12.4 percent of revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010. The year-over-year increase is due to the addition of Amega West overhead cost and higher compensation related expense.
Operating income for the fourth quarter was $35.0 million compared with $10.2 million a year earlier. Excluding surcharge revenue and pension earnings, interest and deferrals (EID), operating margin was 12.4 percent for the quarter and 13.1 percent excluding acquisition related costs. This compares to 7.3 percent in the fiscal year 2010 fourth quarter.
Other income was $2.8 million compared to $0.9 million in the fiscal year 2010 fourth quarter. The difference is primarily due to residual payments received under the expired CDSOA anti-dumping subsidy program. The provision for income tax was $7.7 million or 23 percent of pre-tax income compared to $0.7 million or 11 percent of pre-tax income in the 2010 fourth quarter.
Net income attributable to Carpenter was $25.5 million or $0.57 per diluted share, compared with fourth quarter net income of $5.9 million or $0.13 per diluted share in fiscal year 2010. For the full year, net income attributable to Carpenter was $71.0 million or $1.59 per diluted share, compared with full fiscal year 2010 net income of $2.1 million or $0.04 per diluted share.
Free cash flow, defined as cash from operations less capital expenditures, dividends, and the net impact from the purchase and sale of businesses, was $61.5 million in the current quarter, driven by working capital improvements. For the full fiscal year, free cash flow was a negative $88.9 million due to the cash purchase of Amega West and Oilfield Alloys, as well as increased working capital to support business growth.
Markets:
Aerospace market sales were $194.1 million in the fourth quarter, up 24 percent compared with the same period a year ago. Excluding surcharge revenue, aerospace sales were up 17 percent on 13 percent higher volume. Aerospace results reflect continuing strong demand for engine components driven by high build rates. Demand for titanium fastener material is approaching prior peak levels with continued strong demand expected in the coming year. Demand for nickel and stainless fastener material has grown over the last three quarters and channel activity within these segments indicates demand growth should continue over the next several quarters.
Industrial market sales were $105.8 million, up 24 percent compared with the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010. Excluding surcharge revenue, industrial sales increased 25 percent on 11 percent higher volume. The year-over-year results reflect the impact of mix management and pricing actions as well as demand growth for higher value materials for fittings. In addition, powder metal sales used for tool steel products were up significantly.
Energy market sales of $70.5 million increased 189 percent from the fourth quarter a year earlier. Excluding surcharge revenue, energy market sales increased 189 percent on 79 percent higher volume. A significant increase in demand for materials used in industrial gas turbines drove the growth and positive mix in this segment. The oil and gas segment continued to grow due to increases in directional drilling activity, the Amega West acquisition and higher pricing. Strong growth trends should continue in Energy through fiscal year 2012.
Consumer market sales were $40.8 million, an increase of 8 percent from the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010. Excluding surcharge revenue, sales increased 10 percent on 4 percent lower volume. Revenue grew faster than volume as the growing global demand for higher value materials used in sporting goods applications outpaced sales of lower value materials used in housing. Mix management efforts and pricing actions are having a considerable positive impact on the Consumer market.
Automotive market sales were $37.7 million, an increase of 21 percent from a year earlier. Excluding surcharge revenue, automotive sales rose 13 percent on 2 percent higher volumes. The revenue growth is attributable to mix management efforts that caused increased participation in higher value turbo charger and fuel system components, with a corresponding reduction in lower value products. These efforts are expected to better position Carpenter to participate in the trend toward premium stainless and high-temp alloys used in the next generation technologies that support higher fuel economy.
Medical market sales were $34.7 million in the fourth quarter, up 19 percent from a year ago. Excluding surcharge revenue, medical market sales increased 24 percent on 2 percent higher volume. Share gain drove substantial growth of higher priced titanium products and a richer product mix. Sales of non-implant stainless products also grew in the quarter and contributed to the positive results.
International sales in the fourth quarter were $150.4 million, an increase of 34 percent compared with the same quarter a year earlier. Sales in Europe were up 41 percent on 29 percent higher volume driven mainly by increased demand in Aerospace and Energy and high value Automotive products. Asia revenues increased 13 percent as products for Aerospace continued to show strong demand. Total international sales in the quarter represented 31 percent of total Company sales, in-line with the prior year.
Fiscal Year 2012 Outlook
“Demand growth remains strong in our strategic end markets,” said Wulfsohn. “Several of our largest customers are seeking to expand and extend our supply contracts. Carpenter revenue, excluding Latrobe, is still expected to grow by more than 10 percent in fiscal year 2012. As previously communicated, operating income, excluding pension EID, on the base Carpenter business should be approximately 50 percent higher than fiscal year 2011. The full-year tax rate is projected to be 33 percent and interest expense should be about $7 million higher based on $150 million of incremental debt.
“Free cash flow is expected to be slightly negative after factoring in higher capital spending of about $200 million aimed at capacity expansion, and a modest increase in working capital to support business growth.
“We are also excited about the Latrobe acquisition as it plays an important role in Carpenter’s growth strategy. Latrobe has a well-positioned business portfolio that is also benefiting from strong customer demand. We expect the combined business will enable production efficiencies which will result in expanded production capacity The combined entities also have a larger critical mass to justify the next major increment of premium capacity expansion. The Latrobe acquisition, including transactions costs, should be accretive in year one depending on the closing date, and strongly accretive in later years with the benefit of significant synergies.”
Pension Effects
During the fourth quarter, the Company recorded expense associated with its pension and other post retirement benefit plans of $15.2 million or $0.21 per diluted share. For the full fiscal year, non-cash pension expense was $60.8 million, or $0.84 per diluted share. Due primarily to improvement in equity markets during fiscal 2011 that enabled pension assets to grow by $78.6 million and a slightly higher discount rate assumption, non-cash pension expense in fiscal year 2012 will decrease to $39.4 million or $0.55 per diluted share. The expense will be allocated equally through the fiscal year. The Company currently expects to make cash contributions of approximately $28 million in fiscal year 2012.

In addition, management believes that excluding the impact of pension earnings, interest and deferrals, which may be volatile due to changes in the financial markets, is helpful in analyzing the true operating performance of the Company. | ||||||||||||
