Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

By press release dated May 10, 2010, the Company announced its financial results for the three months ended April 4, 2010. The full text of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The information in this Form 8-K and the Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by special reference in such filing.

In the press release and accompanying supplemental information, the Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: free cash flow, EBIT, EBITDA, adjusted operating income, and adjusted earnings per share (EPS). Management of the Company believes that free cash flow (defined as net cash flow from operating activities, less capital expenditures and dividends paid) is an important measure of its liquidity as well as its ability to service long-term debt, fund future growth and to provide a return to shareholders. EBIT (defined as net income plus interest expense, net plus provision for income taxes), EBITDA (defined as net income plus interest expense, net, plus provision for income taxes, plus depreciation and amortization), adjusted operating income (defined as operating income, excluding the impact of special and asbestos charges), and adjusted EPS (defined as earnings per common share, excluding special charges and the Q4 2009 five year future asbestos claim liability, net of tax) are provided because management believes these measurements are useful for investors and financial institutions to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance. Free cash flow, EBIT, EBITDA, adjusted operating income, and adjusted EPS are not measurements for financial performance under GAAP and should not be construed as a substitute for cash flows, operating income, net income or earnings per share. Free cash flow, EBIT, EBITDA, adjusted operating income, and adjusted EPS as we have calculated here, may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of free cash flow, EBIT, EBITDA, adjusted operating income, and adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is provided in the supplemental information table titled “Reconciliation of Key Performance Measures to Commonly Used Generally Accepted Accounting Principle Terms” which is included as an attachment to the press release.

PRESS RELEASE

CIRCOR Reports First-Quarter 2010 Results

 

   

EPS of $0.33 Significantly Exceeds Guidance Range as a Result of Lower Asbestos Charges

 

   

Lower-than-expected Revenue of $146.3M Reflects Delayed Shipments for International Energy Projects

 

   

Double-Digit Year-Over-Year Bookings Increases in All Segments; Order Strength Reflects Improving Demand Across Many End-Markets

Burlington, MA – May 10, 2010 – CIRCOR International, Inc. (NYSE: CIR), a provider of valves and other highly engineered products and subsystems that control the flow of fluids safely and efficiently in the aerospace, energy and industrial markets, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended April 4, 2010.

Management Comments on First-Quarter Results

“We recorded first-quarter earnings that exceeded our guidance range due to lower-than-expected asbestos charges and a favorable asbestos related insurance adjustment,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Bill Higgins. “Excluding these benefits to earnings, we still would have reported EPS in line with our guidance on lower-than-expected sales. Revenue was below our guidance range as a result of delayed shipments for large international energy projects.”

“The highlight of the quarter was the year-over-year improvements we recorded in bookings across each of our reporting segments,” Higgins said. “Our Energy segment delivered 32% year-over-year growth in bookings, driven by increased demand in our short-cycle business. Flow Technologies reported a 26% increase in bookings as a result of strengthening across many end markets. Our Aerospace segment delivered a 47% improvement in bookings compared with the year-ago quarter due to strong landing gear and other military orders.”

Consolidated Results

Revenues for the first quarter of 2010 were $146.3 million, a 17% decrease from $175.6 million generated in the first quarter of 2009. Net income for the first quarter of 2010 decreased 45% to $5.7 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, compared with $10.5 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2009. First-quarter 2010 net income reflects $0.6 million of pre-tax asbestos recoveries related to the Company’s Leslie Controls subsidiary compared with $8.3 million in asbestos charges in the first quarter of 2009.

There were no special charges (recoveries) in the first quarter of 2010. First-quarter 2009 net income included a pre-tax gain of $1.1 million related to proceeds from the sale of land use rights, recorded as a special recovery.


Consolidated Orders and Free Cash Flow

The Company received orders totaling $161.1 million during the first quarter of 2010, an increase of 32% compared with the first quarter of 2009 and a 6% sequential decrease compared with the fourth quarter of 2009. The year-over-year increase in orders reflects stabilizing market conditions, while the sequential decrease is the result of lower-than-expected large international energy and pipeline solutions projects. In addition, the Company booked unusually high maritime orders in the fourth quarter of 2009. Backlog as of April 4, 2010 was $330.4 million, up 11% from backlog of $298.1 million at March 29, 2009 and up sequentially by 4% from December 31, 2009.

During the first quarter of 2010, the Company used $7.0 million of free cash flow (defined as net cash from operating activities, less capital expenditures and dividends paid) compared to using $7.9 million in the first quarter of 2009.

Energy

CIRCOR’s Energy segment revenues decreased by 35% to $57.7 million for the quarter ended April 4, 2010 compared with $89.3 million in the quarter ended March 29, 2009. The year-over-year decrease included organic declines of 47% across all areas, slightly offset by growth from acquisitions of 9% and favorable foreign currency adjustments of 3%.

Incoming orders for the first quarter of 2010 were $60.3 million, an increase of 32% from $45.8 million in the first quarter of 2009, and a decrease of 23% sequentially. The year-over-year increase was due to increased strength in the short-cycle business while the sequential decrease related to lower bookings of large international projects and pipeline solutions projects than the final quarter of 2009. Ending backlog totaled $135.4 million, a 6% increase compared with $127.3 million at the end of the first quarter of 2009, and a 2% increase sequentially.

The Energy segment adjusted operating margin, which excludes the impact of special charges, was 3.5% during the first quarter of 2010 compared with 18.1% for the first quarter of 2009 and 3.0% for the fourth quarter of 2009. First-quarter 2010 margins were negatively impacted year over year by organic revenue declines across the segment, the associated lost operating leverage, unfavorable pricing in large international projects, and the dilutive impact of the Pipeline Engineering acquisition. These factors were partially offset by lower commissions and increased productivity.

Aerospace

CIRCOR’s Aerospace segment revenues decreased by 4% to $27.3 million for the first quarter of 2010 from $28.3 million in the first quarter of 2009. Growth through acquisitions of 8% and favorable foreign currency adjustments of 1% were offset by organic declines of 13%. Incoming orders for the first quarter of 2010 were $33.0 million, an increase of 47% from $22.4 million in


the first quarter of 2009, and a 39% increase from $23.7 million in the final quarter of 2009. The year-over-year and sequential increases were primarily due to military orders as well as the year-over-year increase from acquisitions. Ending backlog totaled $121.0 million, a 12% increase compared with $108.2 million at the end of the first quarter of 2009, and a 5% increase sequentially.

The Aerospace segment’s adjusted operating margin, which excludes the impact of special charges, was 13.2% for the first quarter of 2010 compared with 15.4% for the first quarter of 2009 and 14.7% for the fourth quarter of 2009. First-quarter 2010 margins were affected by reduced volume and associated leverage, as well as the dilutive impact of acquisitions and investments in new programs partially offset by productivity and favorable mix.

Flow Technologies

CIRCOR’s Flow Technologies segment revenues increased 6% to $61.3 million from $58.0 million in the first quarter of 2009. First-quarter 2010 revenues reflected organic growth of 3% and favorable foreign currency adjustments of 3%. Incoming orders for this segment were $67.8 million for the first quarter of 2010, an increase of 26% from $53.6 million in the first quarter of 2009 and a decrease of 2% sequentially. The year-over-year increase was due to strengthening demand across many end markets except chemical, refining and commercial construction. Ending backlog totaled $74.0 million, an 18% increase compared with $62.6 million at the end of the first quarter of 2009, and a 9% increase sequentially.

This segment’s adjusted operating margin, which excludes the impact of special and asbestos charges, for the first quarter of 2010 was 10.2% compared with 11.6% in the first quarter of 2009, and 11.7% in the fourth quarter of 2009. First-quarter 2010 margins were affected by unfavorable product mix, partially offset by productivity enhancements.

Business and Financial Outlook

“Our positive bookings trend during the past two quarters continues to provide us with reason for cautious optimism about the remainder of the year,” continued Higgins. “In Energy, we believe that the short-cycle business has stabilized and we are hopeful that an increasing number of large international projects will be released. In Flow Technologies, we believe many of our end markets bottomed in the second quarter of 2009 and will continue to improve. In Aerospace, our outlook is improving with freight and passenger traffic increasing, and OEMs announcing higher aircraft production later in the year. The recent financial headwinds in Europe and the Gulf coast oil crisis have created some uncertainties we will watch closely. However, we believe we have seen the bottom in many of our markets and bookings are beginning to improve in these areas.”

“As our sales volumes rebound, CIRCOR’s lean cost structure will enable us to drive profitability improvement across the organization. Our balance sheet remains strong and our ability to generate cash flow allows us to complement organic growth with strategic acquisitions,” concluded Higgins.


CIRCOR currently expects revenues for the second quarter of 2010 in the range of $170 million to $180 million and earnings, excluding special charges, to be in the range of $0.28 to $0.38 per diluted share.
