Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

By press release dated February 28, 2018 CIRCOR International, Inc. (the “Company”) announced its financial results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2017. The full text of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Previously, by press release dated February 22, 2018 the Company provided updated guidance for the three months ended December 31, 2017 ahead of its presentation at Gabelli & Company’s Pump, Valve & Water Systems Symposium. The full text of that press release is attached as Exhibit 99.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The information in this Item 2.02 of Form 8-K and the Exhibits 99.1, 99.2 and 99.3 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.

The Company’s management evaluates segment operating performance using operating income before certain charges/credits to cost of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses, principally associated with acquisition-related activities; restructuring and other costs/income including costs arising from facility consolidations and gains and losses from the sale of product lines; and amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets. The Company also refers to this measure as segment operating income or adjusted operating income. The Company uses this measure because it helps management understand and evaluate the segments’ core operating results and facilitate comparison of performance for determining incentive compensation achievement.

In the press releases and accompanying supplemental information, the Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, free cash flow, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share (EPS), EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and net debt, described as follows:

Adjusted operating income is defined as GAAP operating income excluding intangible amortization from acquisitions completed subsequent to December 31, 2011, step-up depreciation from acquisitions completed subsequent to December 31, 2016, the impact of restructuring related inventory, impairment and special charges or gains.

Adjusted operating margin is defined as adjusted operating income divided by net revenues.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash flow from operating activities, less net capital expenditures. Management of this Company believes free cash flow 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. We also believe this free cash flow definition does not have any material limitations.

Adjusted net income is defined as net income, excluding intangible amortization from acquisitions completed subsequent to December 31, 2011, step-up depreciation from acquisitions completed subsequent to December 31, 2016, special charges/gains including the impact of restructuring related inventory charges, and impairments, net of tax.
  
Adjusted EPS is defined as earnings per common share diluted, excluding the per share impact of



intangible amortization from acquisitions completed subsequent to December 31, 2011, step-up depreciation from acquisitions completed subsequent to December 31, 2016, special charges/gains including the impact of restructuring related inventory charges, and impairments, net of tax.
  
EBITDA is defined as net income plus net interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization.
  
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA plus the impact of special charges/gains including the impact of restructuring related inventory charges, and impairments, net of tax.

Net Debt - is defined at total debt minus cash & cash equivalents.

Our management uses these non-GAAP measures to gain an understanding of our comparative operating performance (when comparing such results with previous periods or forecasts). These non-GAAP financial measures are used by management in our financial and operating decision making because we believe they reflect our ongoing business and allow for meaningful period-to-period comparisons. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose. These non-GAAP financial measures also allow investors and others to compare the Company’s current financial results with the Company’s past financial results in a consistent manner. For example:
We exclude costs and tax effects associated with restructuring activities, such as reducing overhead and consolidating facilities. We believe that the costs related to these restructuring activities are not indicative of our normal operating costs.
We exclude certain acquisition-related costs, including significant transaction costs and the related tax effects. We exclude these costs because we do not believe they are indicative of our normal operating costs.
We exclude the expense and tax effects associated with the non-cash amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets because a significant portion of the purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have lives of 5 to 20 years. Exclusion of the non-cash amortization expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both our newly acquired and long-held businesses and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies.
We also exclude certain gains/losses and related tax effects, which are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability, and that we believe are not indicative of our normal operating gains and losses. For example, we exclude gains/losses from items such as the sale of a business, significant litigation-related matters and lump-sum pension plan settlements.
CIRCOR’s management uses these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as the basis for measuring the Company’s operating performance and comparing such performance to that of prior periods and to the performance of our peers and competitors. We use such measures when publicly providing our business outlook, assessing future earnings potential, evaluating potential acquisitions and dispositions and in our financial and operating decision-making process including for incentive compensation purposes.
Investors should recognize that these non-GAAP measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These measures should be considered in addition and not as a substitute for



or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flow or liquidity prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

A reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures 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 in Exhibit 99.1.

CIRCOR Reports Fourth-Quarter and Year-End 2017 Financial Results

Burlington, MA - February 28, 2018 - CIRCOR International, Inc. (NYSE: CIR), a leading provider of flow control solutions and other highly engineered products for the Energy, Aerospace & Defense and Industrial markets, today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2017.

Q4 Orders of $217 million; up 32% organically
Q4 Revenue of $206 million, up 4% organically
Q4 GAAP loss per share of $(0.32)
Q4 Adjusted EPS of $0.57
Acquisition of Colfax Fluid Handling complete; integration underway
Company suspends quarterly dividend to prioritize debt reduction

“We capped a solid year in 2017 with strong orders growth, and improving revenue and earnings,” said Scott Buckhout, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Energy segment orders increased 37% organically in the fourth quarter, led by our Distributed Valves and Refinery Valves business units. In Advanced Flow Solutions, robust Aerospace demand contributed to a 25% increase in organic orders in the segment.”

The Fluid Handling business, which was acquired from Colfax Corporation on December 11, 2017, also contributed favorably to the results, generating $36.5 million in sales and $5.5 million in segment operating income.

“Since completing the Fluid Handling acquisition in December, we’ve put a full-time, global integration team in place and started executing our plan to reduce combined costs, consolidate systems and processes, and drive growth synergies,” Buckhout said. “We begin 2018 well positioned to capitalize on the growth opportunities in a diversified range of favorable end markets.

“Going forward, we will continue to focus on creating long-term value for our shareholders by investing in growth, executing a seamless integration of Fluid Handling, and reducing our leverage,” concluded Buckhout.

U.S. Tax Reform
The Tax Cuts & Jobs Act did not have a significant impact on the fourth-quarter 2017 results given the Company’s net deferred tax position. Additional analysis regarding the realization of foreign tax credit carryover is in process and will be completed mid-2018.

Dividends
As part of its capital deployment strategy, the Company has suspended its quarterly cash dividend of $0.0375 per share, beginning in the first quarter of 2018. Suspension of this nominal dividend on common stock will allow the Company to redirect the funds to repay debt.

First-Quarter 2018 Guidance
The Company will provide guidance for the first quarter of 2018 during the conference call later today.

These charges include (i)$5.6 million for non-cash acquisition-related intangible amortization expense, including the amortization of a step-up in fair value of inventories; (ii) $4.5 million related to a non-cash charge associated with a lump sum distribution paid to terminated and vested participants in CIRCOR’s pension plan; (iii) $2.3 million related to the exit of the California machine shop and the Brazil facility, as well as the suspension of manufacturing operations in China; (iv) $1.0 million related to other restructuring programs across the Energy Segment; and (v) $1.0 million related to professional fees incurred for completed acquisitions.

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated by subtracting GAAP capital expenditures, net of proceeds from asset sales, from GAAP Operating Cash Flow.
3.
Fluid Handling results reflect the period from December 11, 2017 to December 31, 2017. Prior period comparisons are not meaningful.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted operating income, Adjusted operating margin, Adjusted net income, Adjusted earnings per share (diluted), EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, net debt and free cash flow are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures are used by management in our financial and operating decision making because we believe they better reflect our ongoing business and allow for meaningful period-to-period comparisons. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating the Company’s current operating performance and future prospects in the same manner as management does, if they so choose. These non-GAAP financial measures also allow investors and others to compare the Company’s current financial results with the Company’s past financial results in a consistent manner. For example:
We exclude costs and tax effects associated with restructuring activities, such as reducing overhead and consolidating facilities. We believe that the costs related to these restructuring activities are not indicative of our normal operating costs.
We exclude certain acquisition-related costs, including significant transaction costs and amortization of inventory and fixed-asset step-ups and the related tax effects. We exclude these costs because we do not believe they are indicative of our normal operating costs.
We exclude the expense and tax effects associated with the non-cash amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets because a significant portion of the purchase price for acquisitions may be allocated to intangible assets that have lives up to 25 years. Exclusion of the non-cash amortization expense allows comparisons of operating results that are consistent over time for both our newly acquired and long-held businesses and with both acquisitive and non-acquisitive peer companies.
We also exclude certain gains/losses and related tax effects, which are either isolated or cannot be expected to occur again with any predictability, and that we believe are not indicative of our normal operating gains and losses. For example, we exclude gains/losses from items such as the sale of a business, significant litigation-related matters and lump-sum pension plan settlements.
CIRCOR’s management uses these non-GAAP measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, as the basis for measuring the Company’s operating performance and comparing such performance to that of prior periods and to the performance of our competitors. We use such measures when publicly providing our business outlook, assessing future earnings potential, evaluating potential acquisitions and dispositions and in our financial and operating decision-making process, including for compensation purposes.

Investors should recognize that these non-GAAP measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These measures should be considered in addition and not as a substitute for

or superior to, any measure of performance, cash flow or liquidity prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is included in this news release.
