Peter J. Gundermann, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "There were many moving parts in our fourth quarter. Quarterly revenue was our highest of the year, up 13% over the average of the first three quarters. Had we not been challenged by a combination of program and award delays, our top line would have been substantially stronger. These delays had the effect of sliding revenue from 2017 into 2018. And, as previously announced, we booked an impairment charge of $16.2 million associated with goodwill from the Armstrong Aerospace acquisition we made three years ago."
He continued, “The best news, however, was bookings of $237 million, our highest level ever, leaving us at year-end with a backlog of $394 million, another record. This sets us up very well for 2018."
Consolidated Review
Fourth Quarter 2017 Results
Consolidated sales were up $17.2 million, or 11%, from the same period last year. Organic revenue was $162.8 million, up 6% compared with the same prior year period. The 2017 fourth quarter included $8.5 million in sales from Acquired Businesses. Aerospace segment sales of $139.6 million were up $11.5 million and Test Systems segment sales of $31.8 million were up $5.7 million.
Consolidated gross margin was 18.8% in the fourth quarter of 2017 compared with 23.7% in the fourth quarter of 2016. Consolidated gross margin was negatively affected by the CCC acquisition having a significantly lower margin profile at this point in its business cycle compared with the organic business. Organic Engineering & Development ("E&D") costs were $22.5 million in the quarter, compared with $22.7 million in last year’s fourth quarter. As a percent of sales, organic E&D costs were 13.8% and 14.7% in the fourth quarters of 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Acquired Businesses incurred E&D costs of $2.9 million in the fourth quarter.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $24.0 million, or 14.0% of sales, in the fourth quarter of 2017 compared with $21.1 million, or 13.7% of sales, in the same period last year. The increase was due primarily to the incremental SG&A costs of the Acquired Businesses which totaled $2.4 million, including $1.4 million of intangible asset amortization expense.
As previously announced, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $16.2 million associated to the Armstrong Aerospace reporting unit in the fourth quarter. The impairment loss was incurred in the Aerospace segment.
The effective tax rate for the quarter was 41.8%, compared with 30.9% in the fourth quarter of 2016. The 2017 fourth quarter tax rate was unfavorably impacted by the $1.3 million estimated transition tax on the deemed repatriation of foreign earnings resulting from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("the Act"), enacted in December 2017. This unfavorable impact was offset by the impact of the U.S. federal R&D tax credit, a reduction in foreign taxes due to a change in foreign tax rates enacted in December 2017, and the revaluation of the deferred tax balances as a result of a reduction in the Federal tax rate from the Act ($0.9 million).
2017 Results
Consolidated sales for 2017 decreased by $8.7 million, or 1.4%, to $624.5 million. Aerospace segment sales of $534.6 million were consistent with 2016 sales of $534.0 million, while Test Systems segment sales were down 9.3% to $89.9 million. Sales from the Acquired Businesses contributed $15.5 million for 2017.
Consolidated gross margin was 22.0% in 2017 compared with 25.2% in 2016. Lower consolidated gross margin was the result of lower sales volume. E&D costs increased 6.8% to $95.0 million in 2017 primarily due to the Acquired Businesses, compared with $88.9 million in 2016. The incremental E&D costs of Acquired Businesses totaled $5.7 million. As a percent of sales, E&D was 15.2% and 14.0% in 2017 and 2016, respectively.
SG&A expenses increased $4.2 million in 2017 compared with 2016. As a percent of sales, SG&A expenses were 14.5% and 13.6% for 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase was due primarily to the incremental SG&A costs of the Acquired Businesses which added $4.6 million, including $1.8 million of intangible asset amortization expense.
The effective tax rate for 2017 was 21.3%, compared with 29.6% in 2016. The 2017 tax rate was favorably impacted by the U.S. federal R&D tax credit, a reduction in foreign taxes due to a change in foreign tax rates enacted in December 2017, and the revaluation of the deferred tax balances as a result of the Act ($0.9 million). These favorable impacts were offset by the $1.3 million estimated transition tax on the deemed repatriation of foreign earnings resulting from the Act.
Mr. Gundermann commented, "2017 was certainly a challenging year for our company, with organic revenue flat or down slightly in both of our segments compared with 2016. But during this two-year period, our employee headcount increased by approximately 160 people, in addition to another 300 by acquisition in December. This put considerable pressure on our margins. Nevertheless, we are building a company designed to achieve bigger and better things, and we believe our efforts are bearing fruit. The best of evidence for this is our consolidated bookings in 2017 of $729 million, far in excess of our $624 million in revenue."
Aerospace Segment Review (refer to sales by market and segment data in accompanying tables)
Aerospace Fourth Quarter 2017 Results
Aerospace segment sales increased by $11.5 million, or 9.0%, when compared with the prior year’s fourth quarter to $139.6 million. The Acquired Businesses contributed $8.5 million in sales in the 2017 fourth quarter.
Electrical Power & Motion sales decreased $4.0 million, or 5.7%, due to lower sales of cabin power products due to a combination of lower volume and pricing. Lighting & Safety sales increased by $1.0 million primarily due to higher lighting sales partially offset by lower sales of passenger service units. Avionics sales were up $12.5 million as a result of $2.4 million increase in antennae and other avionics sales combined with the Acquired Businesses which contributed $8.0 million to sales in this product line. Structures sales increased by $0.6 million and Systems Certification sales increased by $1.0 million on higher project activity.
Aerospace segment operating loss for the fourth quarter of 2017 was $7.9 million compared with an operating profit of $16.9 million, or 13.2% of sales, in the same period last year. The Aerospace operating profit was negatively impacted by a $16.2 million impairment loss relating to Armstrong Aerospace and a $5.7 million operating loss from the CCC acquisition. Gross margin was negatively affected by the CCC acquisition having a significantly lower margin profile at this point in its business cycle compared with the organic business. Organic Aerospace E&D costs were $19.9 million compared with $20.2 million in the same period last year. The Acquired Businesses incurred E&D costs of $2.9 million.
Aerospace bookings in the fourth quarter of 2017 were $179.3 million, for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.3:1 for the quarter. Backlog was $298.6 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2017.
Aerospace 2017 Results
Aerospace segment sales increased by $0.6 million, or 0.1%, to $534.6 million, when compared with the prior year primarily due to the addition of the Acquired Businesses which added $15.5 million.
Electrical Power & Motion sales decreased $24.2 million, or 8.4%, for similar reasons as discussed in the quarter. Systems Certifications sales decreased $2.2 million and other products decreased $1.0 million from lower project activity earlier in the year. These declines were offset by increased Avionics sales, up $21.2 million of which $15.0 million was from the Acquired Businesses, and $5.3 million was from increased sales of databus and in-flight entertainment systems. Structures sales increased by $5.0 million.
Aerospace operating profit for 2017 was $38.9 million, or 7.3% of sales, compared with $78.0 million, or 14.6% of sales, in the same period last year. Aerospace operating profit was negatively impacted by lower sales volume and market pricing pressures primarily related to cabin power products, coupled with the $16.2 million impairment at Armstrong and an operating loss of $8.4 million from CCC. E&D costs for Aerospace were $85.3 million (inclusive of $5.6 million related to the Acquired Businesses) and $78.5 million in 2017 and 2016, respectively.
Mr. Gundermann commented, "Our Aerospace segment had record bookings in the fourth quarter of $179 million, for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.3:1. This allowed us to enter 2018 with a record Aerospace backlog of $299 million, providing a sound base for the year."
Test Systems Segment Review (refer to sales by market and segment data in accompanying tables)
Test Systems Fourth Quarter 2017 Results
Sales in the fourth quarter of 2017 increased approximately $5.7 million to $31.8 million compared with the same period in 2016, an increase of 22.0%. Sales to the Semiconductor market increased $9.6 million compared with the same period in 2016, which was offset by decreased sales of $3.8 million to the Aerospace & Defense market.
Operating profit was $4.5 million, or 14.2% of sales, compared with $2.0 million, or 7.6% of sales, in last year’s fourth quarter. This is primarily due to increased sales volumes. E&D costs were $2.6 million, up slightly from $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Orders for the Test Systems segment in the quarter were $57.7 million, up $34.6 million, or 150%, over the prior-year period, for a book-to-bill ratio of 1.8:1 for the quarter. Backlog was $95.1 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2017.
Test Systems 2017 Results
Sales in 2017 decreased 9.3% to $89.9 million compared with sales of $99.1 million for 2016, due to lower shipments to both the Semiconductor and Aerospace & Defense markets. Sales to the Semiconductor market decreased $5.9 million and sales to the Aerospace & Defense market decreased $3.3 million compared with the same period in 2016.
Operating profit was $7.4 million, or 8.2% of sales, compared with $8.5 million, or 8.6% of sales, in 2016. This is primarily due to decreased sales volume. E&D costs were $9.7 million in 2017, compared with $10.4 million in 2016.
Mr. Gundermann commented, "Our Test business continues to make progress establishing its technologies in its chosen markets. While 2017 was disappointing with revenue of $90 million, bookings for the year were $146.1 million for a book-to-bill of 1.6:1, pointing to a much stronger 2018."
Outlook
As previously reported, consolidated sales in 2018 are expected to be in the range of $745 million to $815 million. Approximately $630 million to $680 million of revenue is expected from the Aerospace segment. Test Systems segment revenue for 2018 is expected to be approximately $115 million to $135 million.
Consolidated backlog at December 31, 2017 was $393.7 million, a record level, of which approximately $346.7 million is expected to ship in 2018.
Mr. Gundermann commented, “We believe 2018 will be an excellent year for our company, with many of the recent headwinds we have faced turning to tailwinds. The mid-point of our consolidated revenue range calls for growth of 25%, with our Aerospace segment being up about 22% and our Test segment being up 39%. We are pursuing a number of high-value awards that will heavily influence our plans, which we will refine as soon as possible.”
The effective tax rate for 2018 is expected to be approximately 18% to 22%.
Capital equipment spending in 2018 is expected to be in the range of $24 million to $28 million. E&D spending in 2018 is expected to be in the range of $110 million to $115 million including the Acquired Businesses, which represents approximately 14.4% of sales at the mid-point of the expected sales range.
