     801  0 Kommentare Cummins Announces Results for 2014; Reports Record Revenues; Shares Expectations for Revenue and EBIT Growth in 2015

    COLUMBUS, IN--(Marketwired - February 05, 2015) - Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2014.

    Fourth quarter revenue of $5.1 billion, increased 11 percent from the same quarter in 2013. The year-over-year increase was driven by higher revenues in North America which more than offset lower demand in Brazil and Europe.

    Earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) were $629 million for the fourth quarter or 12.4 percent of sales. These results include $32 million of expense associated with cost reduction activities in the Power Generation business. Excluding this expense, EBIT was $661 million or 13.0 percent of sales. This compares to $566 million or 12.3 percent of sales a year ago.

    Net income attributable to Cummins in the fourth quarter was $444 million ($2.44 per diluted share), or $465 million ($2.56 per diluted share) excluding one-time items, compared to $432 million ($2.32 per diluted share) in the fourth quarter of 2013.

    Revenues for the full year were a record $19.2 billion, 11 percent higher than 2013. Acquisitions contributed 3 percent to revenue growth. Revenues in North America increased 20 percent and international sales grew 2 percent. Within international markets, growth in China more than offset weaker demand in Brazil and India.

    EBIT for the year was $2.5 billion or 13.0 percent of sales. Excluding one-time items, EBIT was $2.53 billion or 13.2 percent compared to $2.16 billion or 12.5 percent of sales in 2013.

    Net income attributable to Cummins for the full year was $1.65 billion ($9.02 per diluted share), or $1.67 billion ($9.13 per diluted share) excluding one-time items, up from $1.48 billion ($7.91 per diluted share) in 2013. The full year tax rate was 28.7 percent.

    "We reported record revenues in 2014 despite weak economic conditions in several of our most important international markets," said Chairman and CEO Tom Linebarger. "Revenues grew 11 percent as demand in on-highway markets in North America improved, we continued executing our distributor acquisition strategy, and we delivered strong growth in China driven by new products. We continued to invest in future growth, reflecting our commitment to technology and product leadership, while growing EBIT faster than sales."

    Cummins' improvement in profitability was driven by record performance in the Components and Distribution businesses and higher earnings in the Engine business. Results in the Company's Power Generation business fell short of expectations, but the actions the Company has taken to lower costs will improve earnings going forward. Demand in North American on-highway markets is expected to improve again in 2015, but will be partially offset by continued weakness in international markets and the negative impact of the strong U.S. dollar.

    Linebarger continued, "We are committed to improving the quality of our products and service for our customers, closely managing costs and further improving our financial performance in 2015. The Company delivered on its commitment to return 50 percent of cash from operations to shareholders in 2014 and will do so again this year."

    Based on the current forecast, Cummins expects full year revenues to grow between 2 and 4 percent, and EBIT to be in the range of 13.5 to 14.0 percent.

    (2) Depreciation and amortization as shown on a segment basis excludes the amortization of debt discount and deferred costs included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as "Interest expense." The amortization of debt discount and deferred costs were $3 million and $2 million for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
    (3) Distribution segment EBIT for the years ended December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 included gains of $73 million and $12 million on the fair value adjustments resulting from the acquisitions of controlling interests in North American distributors in each period, respectively.
    (4) Power Generation segment EBIT for the year ended December 31, 2014, included actions taken to reduce its future cost structure. Costs associated with these actions were $32 million and are primarily related to the closure of a plant in Germany. The charge also included $3 million of targeted actions throughout the business including various headcount reductions to better align capacity with current levels of demand.

    Net income and diluted earnings per share (EPS) attributable to Cummins Inc. excluding special items

    We believe this is a useful measure of our operating performance for the periods presented as it illustrates our operating performance without regard to special items including tax adjustments and plant closing and other actions. This measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and may not be consistent with measures used by other companies. It should be considered supplemental data. The following table reconciles net income attributable to Cummins Inc. to net income attributable to Cummins Inc. excluding special items for the following periods:

    Earnings before interest, taxes, noncontrolling interests and special items

    We define EBIT as earnings before interest expense, income tax expense and noncontrolling interests in income of consolidated subsidiaries (EBIT). We use EBIT to assess and measure the performance of our operating segments and also as a component in measuring our variable compensation programs. This measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP and may not be consistent with measures used by other companies. It should be considered supplemental data.
