JBT Corporation Reports Record Revenue and Earnings in 2016

CHICAGO, Feb. 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

Full-year 2016 Highlights:

  • Revenue of $1.4 billion, up 22 percent from 2015
  • Segment operating profit of $158.3 million, an increase of 28 percent
  • Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $2.28, or $2.56 on an adjusted basis, compared with $1.88 in 2015

2017 Outlook:

  • Expects 2017 revenue growth of approximately 15 percent, comprised of organic growth of 3 - 5 percent and 11 percent growth from completed acquisitions
  • Anticipates segment operating margin expansion of approximately 50 basis points
  • Projects 2017 earnings per share of $3.05 - $3.20, including a $0.10 net tax benefit

JBT Corporation (NYSE: JBT), a leading global technology solutions provider to high-value segments of the food and beverage industry, today reported results for 2016.

Revenue increased 22 percent from 2015, comprised of 9 percent organic growth and 13 percent growth from acquisitions. Segment operating profit margin improved 56 basis points to 11.7 percent in 2016.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $2.28 for 2016. Excluding the $12.3 million restructuring expense, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $2.56. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $1.88 in 2015.

"We ended the year with another strong performance, delivering excellent full-year gains in revenue and profitability," said Tom Giacomini, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "And we are energized by JBT's outlook for 2017 and beyond."

Orders and Backlog

For 2016, inbound orders of $1.4 billion increased 11 percent from the prior year, reflecting increases of 15 percent at FoodTech and 3 percent at AeroTech. Backlog improved 7 percent compared to year-end 2015.

Investment for Growth

In 2016, JBT continued to invest in its business, accelerating development of innovative new products and building its recurring revenue from Customer Care. The Company also pursued its disciplined acquisition program, adding complementary technologies that enable JBT to provide more valued solutions to customers.

In the fourth quarter of 2016, JBT completed acquisitions of Cooling and Applied Technologies (C.A.T.), a leading producer of chillers, injection, marination, weighing, freezing, and refrigeration systems, primarily for the poultry industry, and Tipper Tie, Inc., a leading provider of engineered production and packaging solutions, and related consumables to the food industry.

Transaction costs and purchase price accounting associated with the two acquisitions resulted in a $0.05 per share dilution in the fourth quarter of 2016. JBT continues to expect the collective benefit of the two transactions to be $0.13 - $0.22 per share in 2017 and $0.38 - $0.48 per share in 2018.

On February 27, 2017, JBT announced the acquisition of Avure Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of high pressure processing (HPP) systems and associated parts and service. HPP is a cold pasteurization technology that ensures food safety without heat or preservatives, maintaining fresh food characteristics desired by consumers such as flavor and nutritional value, while extending shelf life.

"We are particularly excited about welcoming the Avure team to JBT and the access they provide to the rapidly growing market for HPP," stated Giacomini. "Together, we now offer our customers around the world a market-leading suite of food preservation solutions with broad application across both protein and liquid foods."  

The Company expects the acquisition of Avure to add annual revenue of approximately $50 million. Transaction costs and purchase price accounting associated with the acquisition are expected to more than offset earnings generated under JBT ownership in 2017, resulting in dilution of approximately $0.05 per share. The Company anticipates earnings accretion of $0.07 - $0.12 per share in 2018 and $0.12 - $0.17 per share in 2019.

Elevate Strategy

On November 3, 2016, at the Company's Investor Day, JBT introduced its 2017 - 2019 Elevate Strategy. "With Elevate, we are building on the success of the Next Level strategy we introduced in 2014, and established new targets for growth and profitability," added Giacomini. "Through the 2017 to 2019 period, we are targeting annual revenue growth of 9 to 12 percent, EPS growth of about 15 percent, and return on invested capital of approximately 15 percent."   

Fourth Quarter 2016

Fourth quarter 2016 revenue increased 14 percent from the year-ago period, comprised of 5 percent organic growth and 9 percent growth from acquisitions. Segment operating profit margin improved 30 basis points to 12.0 percent.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.78 for the fourth quarter of 2016. Excluding restructuring expense, adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.85. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations was $0.70 in the fourth quarter of 2015.

2017 Outlook 

For 2017, the Company anticipates revenue growth of approximately 15 percent, reflecting organic growth of 3 to 5 percent and growth from completed acquisitions of about 11 percent. The Company expects total segment operating margin in 2017 to expand approximately 50 basis points relative to 2016. The Company forecasts diluted earnings per share in the range of $3.05 - $3.20, including the dilutive effect of the Avure acquisition, and a net tax benefit of approximately $0.10 per share. This net tax benefit includes a $0.20 per share discrete benefit from new accounting rules for stock compensation in the first quarter, partially offset by an otherwise higher tax rate for the year.

Prior to the discrete tax benefit, the Company expects first quarter 2017 earnings to be roughly flat year over year, primarily due to acquisition-related accounting and higher interest expense.

The above table provides net income as adjusted by income taxes, net interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense recorded during the period to arrive at EBITDA.  Further, we add back to EBITDA significant expenses that are not indicative of our ongoing operations to calculate an Adjusted EBITDA for the periods reported.  Given the Company's Elevate focus on growth through strategic acquisitions, management considers Adjusted EBITDA to be an important non-GAAP financial measure.  This measure allows us to monitor business performance while excluding the impact of amortization due to the step up in value of intangible assets, and the depreciation of fixed assets.  We use Adjusted EBITDA internally to make operating decisions and believe this information is helpful to investors because it allows more meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our ongoing operating results.  This information is not intended to nor should it be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
