Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

By press release dated October 28, 2009, the Company announced its financial results for the three months ended September 27, 2009. 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, and adjusted operating income. 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) and adjusted operating income (defined as operating income, excluding the impact of special and asbestos charges) 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, and adjusted operating income 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, and adjusted operating income, 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, and adjusted operating income 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 Third-Quarter 2009 Results

 

   

Revenues of $144.3 Million Slightly Exceed Guidance Range in Difficult Market Environment

   

EPS of $0.49 Significantly Exceeds Guidance Range as a Result of Lower Asbestos Charges and Other Non-operating Items

   

13% Year-Over-Year Bookings Decline Reflects Continued Weak Global Demand Environment

Burlington, MA – October 28, 2009 – 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 third quarter ended September 27, 2009.

Comments on the Third Quarter

According to Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Bill Higgins, “Our third-quarter revenues were slightly above our guidance range. Earnings significantly exceeded our guidance range primarily due to lower-than-expected asbestos charges and other non-operating gains.”

“As expected, bookings reflected the weak global demand environment and came in 13% lower year-over-year,” Higgins said. “Our Energy segment continued to experience a significant decrease in short-cycle bookings due to the substantial decline in rig counts and destocking at distributors. At the same time, our long-cycle international project business experienced an increase in year-over-year bookings due to very low orders booked in the third quarter of 2008. Within our Instrumentation and Thermal Fluid Controls segment we experienced continued weakness, particularly in commercial aerospace, although we did see signs of stabilization in some of our other diverse flow markets.”

“To adjust to this difficult market environment, we continue to focus on our quality of earnings initiatives by reducing our cost structure, driving operational improvements with Lean, and expanding our low-cost operations in emerging markets,” Higgins said. “Excluding acquisitions, we have reduced CIRCOR’s total workforce by approximately 17% year-to-date, and we continue to consolidate facilities.”

“We have a great balance sheet and continue to seek strategic acquisitions,” added Higgins. “We recently acquired Pipeline Engineering, a privately held pipeline products and solutions company based in the United Kingdom. This acquisition will be accretive in the first year and was funded with existing cash.”


Consolidated Results

Revenues for the third quarter of 2009 were $144.3 million, a 31% decrease from $208.7 million generated in the third quarter of 2008. Net income for the third quarter of 2009 declined to $8.4 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, compared with $19.8 million, or $1.16 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2008. Third-quarter 2009 net income includes $2.0 million in pre-tax asbestos charges compared with $3.8 million in the third quarter of 2008. Third-quarter 2009 net income also includes a benefit of $0.5 million related to an acquisition completed earlier in the year, where the fair value of the acquired assets exceeded the purchase price.

For the nine months ended September 27, 2009, revenues were $484.5 million, a decrease of 18% from $591.9 million for the comparable period in 2008. Net income for the first nine months of 2009 was $26.6 million, or $1.56 per diluted share, a decrease of 48% from $51.1 million, or $3.01 per diluted share, from the first nine months of 2008. Net income for the first nine months of 2009 includes $13.7 million in pre-tax asbestos charges compared with $6.9 million in the year-ago period. Net income for the first nine months of 2009 also includes a pre-tax gain of $1.7 million related to proceeds from the sale of land use rights and the aforementioned benefit associated with the acquisition, recorded as a gain on the “special charges” line.

The Company received orders totaling $143.6 million during the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of 13% compared with the third quarter of 2008 and a 15% sequential decrease compared with the second quarter of 2009.

For the first nine months of 2009, orders totaled $434.8 million with a third-quarter 2009 ending backlog of $297.9 million. This compares to 2008 orders for the first nine months of $599.2 million and a third quarter 2008 ending backlog of $401.6 million, representing a year-over-year decrease of 26%.

During the third quarter of 2009, the Company generated $11.2 million of free cash flow (defined as net cash from operating activities, less capital expenditures and dividends paid), and, for the first nine months of 2009, the Company had free cash flow of $21.2 million. This compares to $24.1 million of free cash flow generated in the first nine months of 2008.

Instrumentation and Thermal Fluid Controls Products

CIRCOR’s Instrumentation and Thermal Fluid Controls Products segment revenues decreased 14% to $83.1 million from $96.3 million in the third quarter of 2008. Growth from acquisitions of 4% was more than offset by volume declines of 14% and lower foreign exchange rates compared to the U.S. dollar of 3%. Incoming orders for this segment were $88.4 million for the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of 13% from $101.6 million in the third quarter of 2008. Sequentially, this segment’s orders decreased 8%. The sequential decrease in orders in this segment related primarily to a large multi-year military landing gear order booked in the second quarter of 2009 expected to be shipped beginning in 2011. Ending backlog was $183.7 million, an increase of 8% from the third quarter of fiscal 2008 and a 3% increase from the second quarter of fiscal 2009.


This segment’s adjusted operating margin, which excludes the impact of special and asbestos charges, for the third quarter of 2009 was 11.6% compared with 12.3% in the third quarter of 2008, and 11.8% in the second quarter of 2009. The year-over-year and sequential declines were due to lower sales leverage and unfavorable foreign currency adjustments, partially offset by a decrease in material costs and labor expenses.

Energy Products

CIRCOR’s Energy Products segment revenues declined by 46% to $61.2 million for the quarter ended September 27, 2009 compared with a record $112.4 million in the quarter ended September 28, 2008. The year-over-year decrease included volume declines of 44%, as well as unfavorable foreign currency adjustments of 2%.

Incoming orders for the third quarter of 2009 were $55.1 million, a decrease of 12% from $62.7 million in the third quarter of 2008, and a decrease of 24% from $72.9 million in the second quarter of 2009. The sequential decrease was the result of large international project orders booked in the second quarter of 2009 scheduled to ship in 2010. Ending backlog totaled $114.1 million, a 51% decrease compared with $232.0 million at the end of the third quarter of 2008, and a 6% decrease sequentially.

The Energy Products segment’s adjusted operating margin was 10.9% during the third quarter of 2009 compared with 23.2% for the third quarter of 2008 and 12.3% for the second quarter of 2009. The year-over-year decrease was primarily the result of lower volume, unfavorable pricing and product mix, as well as acquisition-related costs, partially offset by lower material costs and labor expenses.

Business and Financial Outlook

“We believe that the ongoing global recession will continue to negatively affect our financial results for the fourth quarter and into 2010,” said Higgins. “In Energy, while there appears to be some stabilization in rig counts, it is difficult to determine whether this will be sustainable and how long it will take for distributors to work through excess inventory. Quoting activity continues on large international project orders, although pricing pressure has increased. Visibility into the Instrumentation and Thermal Fluid Controls Products side of the business is also limited, although we have seen areas of improvement in certain markets.”

“We continue to take aggressive actions to lower our cost structure and enhance our quality of earnings, including plant consolidations and increasing the use of India and China for materials sourcing. We anticipate incurring expenses in a range of $2.0 million to $2.5 million in the fourth quarter relating to certain cost-reduction activities. With a lower cost structure that is aligned with near term demand, we will be well positioned for bottom line improvement as our markets begin to recover. We also plan to leverage our strong balance sheet and cash generating ability to capitalize on acquisition opportunities as they present themselves,” concluded Higgins.

The Company currently expects revenues for the fourth quarter of 2009 in the range of $153 million to $162 million and earnings, excluding special charges, to be in the range of $0.17 to $0.23 per diluted share.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per diluted share, adjusted operating margin, and free cash flow, are non-GAAP financial measures and are intended to serve as a complement to results provided in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. CIRCOR believes that such information provides an additional measurement and consistent historical comparison of the Company’s performance. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is available in this news release.
