Peter J. Gundermann, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our second quarter was disappointing as a result of continued slippage of programs into the future, but we remain enthusiastic with the significance of these opportunities for when they do come to fruition. For our Aerospace segment, the lull in power and motion sales has continued, even as quoting activity remains robust, and our ambitions for business jet connectivity have not materialized as quickly as we expected. Similarly, although we have received orders for our legacy semiconductor test solution, some significant new programs we have been pursuing in our Test business are now taking longer than anticipated, somewhat reducing our 2017 expectations. However, none of this impacts our confidence in our leading market positions or strategy, and despite current conditions we have solid prospects for 2018 and beyond."
Consolidated Review
Second Quarter 2017 Results
Consolidated sales were down $13.3 million from the same period last year. Aerospace segment sales of $129.5 million were down $13.0 million and Test Systems segment sales of $21.6 million were essentially flat, down $0.3 million.
Consolidated gross margin was 22.6% in the second quarter of 2017 compared with 27.3% in the second quarter of 2016. Consolidated gross margin was negatively affected by lower organic sales volumes coupled with the CCC acquisition having a significantly lower margin profile at this point in its business cycle, compared with the organic business. Organic Engineering and Development (“E&D”) costs were $21.7 million in the quarter, up from $21.4 million of E&D costs in last year’s second quarter. As a percent of sales, organic E&D costs were 14.4% and 13.0% in the second quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively. CCC incurred E&D costs of $1.2 million since its acquisition.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $22.4 million, or 14.8% of sales, in the second quarter of 2017 compared with $22.2 million, or 13.5% of sales, in the same period last year.
The effective tax rate for the quarter was 27.3%, compared with 30.5% in the second quarter of 2016. The 2017 second quarter tax rate was favorably impacted by the federal research and development tax credit.
Net income was $7.7 million, or $0.26 cents per diluted share.
Year-to-Date 2017 Results
Consolidated sales for the first six months of 2017 decreased by $20.4 million, or 6.3%, to $303.5 million. Aerospace segment sales were down $14.4 million, or 5.1% year-over-year to $266.4 million, while Test Systems segment sales were down $6.0 million, or 13.9% to $37.1 million.
Consolidated gross margin was 23.9% in the first six months of 2017 compared with 26.0% in the first six months of 2016. Consolidated gross margin was negatively affected by lower organic sales volumes coupled with CCC's lower margin profile. Organic E&D costs were 14.7% of sales, or $44.6 million, compared with $44.6 million, or 13.8% of sales, in the prior year’s first six months. SG&A expenses were $44.1 million, or 14.5% of sales, in the first six months of 2017 compared with $44.1 million, or 13.6% of sales, in the same period last year.
The effective tax rate for the first six months of 2017 was 26.0%, compared with 30.5% in the first six months of 2016. The tax rate in the first six months of 2017 was favorably impacted by excess tax benefits associated with employee share-based compensation, decreases in foreign tax rates, and the federal research and development tax credit.
Net income for the first half of 2017 totaled $19.3 million, or $0.64 per diluted share.
During the second quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 302,000 shares at an aggregate cost of $9.1 million under its share repurchase program. Since the inception of the program in February 2016, the Company has repurchased approximately 973,000 shares at an aggregate cost of $31.1 million.
Aerospace Segment Review (refer to sales by market and segment data in accompanying tables)
Aerospace Second Quarter 2017 Results
Aerospace segment sales decreased by $13.0 million, or 9.1%, when compared with the prior year’s second quarter to $129.5 million. CCC contributed $3.5 million in sales in the 2017 second quarter.
Electrical Power & Motion sales decreased $13.0 million, or 17.2%, due to lower sales of in-seat and cabin power products. Systems Certification sales decreased by $2.6 million on lower project activity. Avionics sales were up $1.6 million and included the CCC acquisition which more than offset lower antennae sales.
Aerospace operating profit for the second quarter of 2017 was $14.0 million, or 10.8% of sales, compared with $24.9 million, or 17.4% of sales, in the same period last year. Aerospace operating profit was negatively impacted by lower organic sales, $0.9 million operating loss from the CCC acquisition and increased organic E&D costs. Organic Aerospace E&D costs were $19.8 million compared with $19.0 million in the same period last year. CCC incurred E&D costs of $1.2 million during the quarter.
Aerospace orders in the second quarter of 2017 were $134.8 million, for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.04 for the quarter. Backlog was $215.6 million at the end of the second quarter of 2017.
Aerospace Year-to-Date 2017 Results
Aerospace segment sales decreased by $14.4 million, or 5.1%, when compared with the prior year’s first six months to $266.4 million.
Electrical Power & Motion sales decreased $15.9 million, or 10.5%, and Systems Certifications sales decreased $5.0 million, both for similar reasons as in the quarter. These declines were partially offset by $3.3 million higher Avionics sales related to the CCC acquisition, as well as a $2.7 million increase in sales of Lighting and Safety products.
Aerospace operating profit for the first six months of 2017 was $33.7 million, or 12.7% of sales, compared with $43.5 million, or 15.5% of sales, in the same period last year. Aerospace operating profit was negatively impacted by lower sales volumes and the operating loss from the acquired CCC business. E&D costs for Aerospace were $41.3 million (inclusive of $1.2 million related to the acquired CCC business) and $39.4 million in the first six months of 2017 and 2016, respectively. Aerospace SG&A expense remained consistent at $31.1 million in the first six months of 2017 as compared with 2016.
Mr. Gundermann commented, “We continue to enjoy leading market positions for key product areas in our Aerospace segment. However, our results have been impacted by program timing, comparatively slower wide body retrofit and new build activity, combined with delayed decisions regarding passenger entertainment options. Quoting activity remains very healthy however, and we consider our prospects substantial and wide-ranging. Even so, it looks increasingly like these issues will continue to pose a challenge for our Aerospace business for the remainder of 2017, though feedback from the market suggests that 2018 could be quite strong.”
Test Systems Segment Review (refer to sales by market and segment data in accompanying tables)
Test Systems Second Quarter 2017 Results
Sales in the second quarter of 2017 decreased approximately $0.3 million to $21.6 million compared with the same period in 2016, a decrease of 1.6%. Sales to the Semiconductor market decreased $2.8 million and sales to the Aerospace and Defense market increased $2.5 million compared with the same period in 2016.
Operating profit was $1.4 million, or 6.6% of sales, compared with $1.1 million, or 4.9% of sales, in last year’s second quarter. E&D costs were $2.0 million, down from $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2016. Test Systems SG&A expense decreased to $2.9 million in the second quarter of 2017 compared with $3.2 million in the same period last year.
Orders for the Test Systems segment in the quarter were $23.9 million, for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.11 for the quarter. Backlog was $49.9 million at the end of the second quarter of 2017.
Test Systems Year-to-Date 2017 Results
Sales in the first six months of 2017 decreased 13.9% to $37.1 million compared with sales of $43.1 million for the same period in 2016, due to lower sales to the Semiconductor market. Sales to the Semiconductor market decreased $5.3 million compared with the same period in 2016.
Operating profit was $1.8 million, or 4.7% of sales, compared with $3.3 million, or 7.6% of sales, in the first six months of 2016. E&D costs were $4.5 million in the first six months of 2017 compared with $5.3 million in the prior year period. SG&A costs declined to $5.9 million in the first six months of 2017 compared with $6.4 million in the same period in 2016.
Mr. Gundermann commented, “We continue to work towards a set of promising programs in both sides of our Test business, but program schedule delays have hurt our 2017 prospects. Still, we expect substantial awards in the second half of 2017 setting up for a solid 2018.”
2017 Outlook
Consolidated sales in 2017 are forecasted to be in the range of $625 million to $645 million, which represents a decline from the previous guidance. Approximately $535 million to $550 million of revenue is expected from the Aerospace segment. Expected revenue for the Test Systems segment was tightened to a range of $90 million to $95 million.
Consolidated backlog at July 1, 2017 was $265.6 million, of which approximately $204.6 million is expected to ship in 2017.
The effective tax rate for 2017 is expected to be in the range of 28% to 31%.
Capital equipment spending in 2017 is expected to be in the range of $21 million to $25 million.
E&D costs are expected to be in the range of $96 million to $99 million including CCC.
Mr. Gundermann concluded, “Our product positions continue to be strong and we enjoy solid relationships with our customers. However, our 2017 expectations have weakened based on feedback from customers regarding timing with anticipated demand. We still expect the second half of the year to be stronger than the first half, but not as strong as we had originally envisioned. The program delays which have moved revenue expectations out of 2017 help build confidence in a stronger 2018. Our focus is to optimize our 2017 results while executing on those opportunities for the future, providing a path to continued growth.”
